Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(a)

Accounting Terms: All financial statements required to be furnished by the Borrower to the Agent hereunder shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(ii)

the Borrower or any of the Material Subsidiaries adopts a change in an accounting policy in order to more appropriately present events or transactions in its financial statements;

and the above change would cause an amount required to be determined for the purposes of any financial covenant or any other financial calculation or threshold (each a "Financial Calculation") to be different than the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such change, the Borrower shall notify the Agent of such change (an "Accounting Change"). Such notice (an "Accounting Change Notice") shall describe the nature of the Accounting Change and state whether the Borrower desires to revise the method of calculating one or more of the Financial Calculations (including the revision of any of the defined terms used in the determination of such Financial Calculation) in order that amounts determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change and the revised method of calculating such Financial Calculation will approximate the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such Accounting Change and without giving effect to the revised method of calculating such Financial Calculation. The Accounting Change Notice shall be delivered to the Agent within forty-five (45) days after the end of the Fiscal Quarter in which the Accounting Change is implemented or, if such Accounting Change is implemented in the fourth Fiscal Quarter or in respect of an entire Fiscal Year, within ninety (90) days after the end of such period, provided that, in a situation where an Accounting Change does not have an immediate impact on the calculations or thresholds then applicable to the Borrower, the Borrower shall be entitled to deliver an additional Accounting Change Notice once such change does have an impact (provided that no more than one such additional Accounting Change Notice may be delivered in any one Fiscal Quarter), and the provisions hereof shall also apply to such additional Accounting Change Notice.

(d)

Revised Calculations: If either the Borrower or the Majority Lenders so indicate that they wish to revise the method of calculating one or more of the Financial Calculations, the Borrower and the Majority Lenders shall in good faith attempt to agree on a revised method of calculating such Financial Calculations so as to reflect equitably such Accounting Change with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the Borrower's financial condition shall be substantially the same after such Accounting Change as if such Accounting Change had not been made. Until the Borrower and the Majority Lenders have reached agreement in writing on such revised method of calculation, all amounts to be determined hereunder shall continue to be determined without giving effect to the Accounting Change. For greater certainty, if no notice of a desire to revise the method of calculating the Financial Calculations in respect of an Accounting Change is given by either the Borrower or the Majority Lenders within the applicable time period described above, then the method of calculating the Financial Calculations shall not be revised in response to such Accounting Change and all amounts to be determined pursuant to the Financial Calculations shall be determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change.

Each Lender unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Fronting Lender that, on or before the close of business of such Fronting Lender on each day on which a draft is paid under a Letter of Credit for which such Fronting Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, such later date on which the Borrower is required to reimburse such Fronting Lender), including pursuant to Section 3.9(j) (a "Participation Date"), such Syndicated Lender will pay to the Agent for the account of such Fronting Lender at the Agent's Account for Payments its Lender's Proportion of any such unpaid amount in U.S. Dollars (if such Letter of Credit was denominated in U.S. Dollars), in Cdn.

(f)

Role of each Fronting Lender: Each Fronting Lender shall endeavour to ensure that any drawing under a Letter of Credit complies with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and in doing so, and in connection with all of its other activities regarding a Letter of Credit, will exercise and give the same care and attention to each Letter of Credit issued by it as it gives to its other letters of credit and similar obligations. A Fronting Lender's sole liability to each Syndicated Lender shall be to promptly return to the Agent for the account of the Syndicated Lenders the Lender's Proportion of each Syndicated Lender of any payments made to such Fronting Lender by the Borrower, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.9(d) where the Borrower has made a payment to such Fronting Lender pursuant to Section 3.9(e). Each Syndicated Lender agrees that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by a Fronting Lender, such Fronting Lender shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than as required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of any person delivering any such document. No Fronting Lender nor any of its representatives, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Syndicated Lender for:

(i)

any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Majority Lenders;

(ii)

any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any Letter of Credit in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct; or

(iii)

the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any other document contemplated thereby.

A Fronting Lender shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other writing (which may be a bank wire, electronic mail transmittal, telex, SWIFT or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper Person or Persons.

(g)

Lenders' Obligations Absolute: Each Syndicated Lender acknowledges that its obligations to a Fronting Lender under this Section 3.9, including the obligation to purchase and fund a participation in the obligations and rights of such Fronting Lender under each Letter of Credit issued by it and any drafts paid by it for which it has not been fully reimbursed by the Borrower, are absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation:

(i)

the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default;

(ii)

any failure or inability of any other Syndicated Lender to purchase or fund such a participation hereunder; or

(iii)

any other failure by any other Syndicated Lender to fulfil its obligations hereunder.

Each payment by a Syndicated Lender to a Fronting Lender for its own account shall be made without any offset, compensation, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

- 67 -

(h)

Reinstatement and Survival: Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Fronting Lender is required at any time whether before or after the Syndicated Facility Maturity Date to make any payment under a Letter of Credit which was outstanding on or before the Syndicated Facility Maturity Date, each Syndicated Lender shall pay over to the Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.9 and for the account of such Fronting Lender the amount of such Lender's Lender's Proportion of such amount. If such Fronting Lender is required at any time (whether before or after the Syndicated Facility Maturity Date) to return to the Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official any portion of the payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower to such Fronting Lender in reimbursement of the Borrower's obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit and interest thereon, each Syndicated Lender shall, on demand of such Fronting Lender forthwith pay over to the Agent for the account of such Fronting Lender such Lender's Lender's Proportion of such amount, plus interest thereon from the day such demand is made to the day such amount is returned by such Lender to such Fronting Lender at the rate specified in Section 5.6.

Breakage Costs

If, on any day on which payments or prepayments are required to be made under Section 4.1 or Section 4.2, the Borrowings then outstanding include SOFR Loans, CORRA Loans or Letters of Credit in an amount such that the prepayment would require the Borrower to be liable under the funding indemnity contained in Section 11.6 or to pay a Letter of Credit prior to its expiry date, that portion of the prepayment which would otherwise be applied against any such SOFR Loan, CORRA Loan or Letter of Credit may, at the option of the Borrower, be paid to the Agent for deposit into a Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Section 10.4 or Section 3.9(l), as applicable, and be applied against such SOFR Loan or such CORRA Loan on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto or to such Letter of Credit on its expiry date or the date of drawing thereunder.

A change in the Prime Rate or the Applicable Margin will simultaneously cause a corresponding change in the interest payable on each Prime Loan. Such interest shall accrue daily based on the Prime Rate and Applicable Margin in effect on each day and is payable quarterly in arrears on each Interest Date for the period commencing on and including the immediately prior Interest Date up to but not including the Interest Date on which such interest is to be paid and shall be calculated on a daily basis and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days. The annual rates of interest to which the rates determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1 are equivalent are the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the relevant calendar year and divided by three hundred sixty-five (365).

The Borrower shall pay interest in U.S. Dollars on each SOFR Loan made by each Lender at the Agent's Account for Payments, in the case of the Syndicated Facility, and at the Operating Lender's Account for Payments, in the case of the Operating Facility, in each case, for the period commencing on and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable to such SOFR Loan up to but not including the last day of such Interest Period at a rate per annum (calculated on the basis of a 360 day year) equal to the sum of Adjusted Term SOFR with respect to such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin applicable to such SOFR Loan. A change in the Applicable Margin will simultaneously cause a corresponding change in the interest payable on each SOFR Loan. Such interest shall accrue daily based on Adjusted Term SOFR and the Applicable Margin in effect on each day and is payable on each Interest Date applicable to such Interest Period and shall be calculated on a daily basis and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which such interest is payable (including the first day of such period but excluding the date on which such interest is payable) divided by three hundred sixty (360).

5.5

Letter of Credit Fees

(a)

Issue Fee: The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of each Syndicated Lender an issue fee in the same currency as the Letter of Credit is denominated (provided that, in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, such issue fee shall be paid in U.S. Dollars), such fee to be equal to the Letter of Credit Fee. Such issue fee shall be payable by the Borrower quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, and shall, for each Syndicated Lender, be calculated daily based on the Letter of Credit Fee in effect, the face amount of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, the Equivalent Amount in U.S. Dollars of the face amount of such Letter of Credit) and a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days.

(b)

Fronting Fee: The Borrower shall pay to the applicable Fronting Lender:

(i)

a fronting fee as agreed to in writing by the Borrower and such Fronting Lender at or prior to issuing any Letter of Credit, such fee to be paid in the same currency as the issue fee for such Letter of Credit; and

5.6

Interest on Overdue Amounts

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, in the event that any amount due hereunder (including, without limitation, any interest payment) is not paid when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), the Borrower shall and hereby agrees to pay to the Applicable Lenders (or, in the case of the Syndicated Facility, to the Agent on behalf of the Applicable Lenders) interest on such unpaid amount (including, without limitation, interest on interest), if and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, from the date that such amount is due until the date that such amount is paid in full (but excluding the date of such payment if the payment is made before noon (Toronto time)), and such interest shall accrue daily, be calculated and compounded on the last Business Day of each calendar month and be payable in the currency of the relevant Borrowing on demand, as well after as before maturity, default and judgment, at a rate per annum that is equal to:

- 78 -

(a)

if such amount is payable in Canadian Dollars, the interest rate applicable to Prime Loans outstanding from time to time hereunder whether or not any Prime Loans are then outstanding plus the Applicable Margin plus two percent (2%) per annum; and

(b)

if such amount is payable in U.S. Dollars or a Foreign Currency, the interest applicable to U.S. Base Rate Loans outstanding from time to time hereunder whether or not any U.S. Base Rate Loans are then outstanding plus the Applicable Margin plus two percent (2%) per annum.

The Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent it may do so under Applicable Law, any provisions of Applicable Law, including specifically the Interest Act (Canada) and the Judgment Interest Act (Alberta), which may be inconsistent with this Agreement.

5.7

Agent's Fees

The Borrower shall pay an agency fee to the Agent (for the Agent's sole account) at the Agent's Account for Payments, in an amount as agreed from time to time between the Agent and the Borrower, and such fees shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be an amount payable pursuant to this Agreement.

5.8

Maximum Rate Permitted by Law

No interest or fee to be paid hereunder shall be paid at a rate exceeding the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. In the event any such interest or fee exceeds such maximum rate, such interest or fee shall be reduced or refunded, as the case may be, so as to be payable at the highest rate recoverable under Applicable Law.

5.9

Interest Generally

The principle of deemed reinvestment shall not apply to the calculation of interest or payment of fees or other amounts hereunder, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document now or hereafter granted to or taken by the Agent or any Lender and all interest and fees payable by the Borrower to a Lender shall accrue from day to day and be computed as described herein in accordance with the "nominal rate" method of interest calculation.

The Borrower and each other Loan Party (a) acknowledges and confirms that it is able to calculate the yearly rate or percentage of interest payable under the Loan Documents based upon the methodology set out in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (b) irrevocably agrees to not plead or assert by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding related to the Loan Documents, that the interest payable hereunder and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to the Borrower, whether pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other Applicable Law or principle.

- 79 -

5.10

Standby Fees

Prior to the Maturity Date of each Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent on behalf of each Syndicated Lender and to the Operating Lender standby fees in U.S. Dollars payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter and on the applicable Maturity Date of each such Lender. Each payment of standby fees shall be calculated for the period commencing on and including the first day of the immediately prior calendar quarter, up to and including the last day of such immediately prior calendar quarter or such Maturity Date applicable to such Lender (whichever is earlier) and shall be in an amount equal to the Applicable Margin for standby fees from time to time in effect during such calendar quarter or other period and shall be calculated on the amount, if any, of the difference (if positive) obtained by subtracting the Syndicated Borrowings or the Operating Borrowings outstanding from each Lender for each day during such period from the amount of such Lender's Syndicated Facility Commitment or Operating Facility Commitment, respectively, for each day during such period. Such standby fees shall be calculated on a daily basis and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days. For purposes of calculating standby fees payable pursuant to this Section 5.10, the amount of the Borrowings outstanding from time to time in currencies other than U.S. Dollars on each day during the period for which such standby fees are payable shall be notionally converted to the Equivalent Amount in U.S. Dollars at the rate of exchange in effect for purposes of determining an Equivalent Amount on such day.

5.11

Interest and Fee Adjustment

In the event of a change in the Applicable Margin as a result of a change in the Consolidated Total Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio, such change shall become effective on the day falling three (3) Business Days after the day on which the Borrower delivers a Compliance Certificate in accordance with the requirements hereof evidencing such change in the Consolidated Total Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio, or, if the Borrower has not delivered a Compliance Certificate as required by the terms hereof within the time permitted by Section 9.1(f), then such change in the Applicable Margin shall become effective on the day falling three (3) Business Days after the latest date permitted hereunder for delivery of such Compliance Certificate and the Applicable Margin shall be based on the highest rate in the tables in the definitions of Applicable Margin for the period from such day until the date of delivery thereof.

6.2

Form of Loan Party Guarantee and Security

Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Party Guarantee and the Security will be in such form or forms as will be required by the Agent, acting reasonably.

6.5

Extensions, Etc.

Each Secured Lender may directly, or through the Agent or other duly authorized representatives, grant extensions, take and give up securities, accept compositions, grant releases and discharges and otherwise deal with any Loan Party or any other Persons, sureties or securities as such Secured Lender, in its sole discretion, may see fit, all without prejudice to the liability of any Loan Party under the Secured Documents or the rights of any Secured Lender under the Secured Documents.

6.6

No Merger

The taking of the Loan Party Guarantee or any Security as provided under this Agreement or any Secured Document shall not operate by way of merger of any of the obligations of any Loan Party or any successor of any Loan Party under any Secured Document, or of any Security Interest, guarantee, contract, promissory note, bill of exchange or security in any other form, whether or not similar to the foregoing, and no judgment recovered by the Agent on behalf of the Secured Lenders shall operate by way of merger or in any way affect the obligations and security provided for in this Agreement, which shall be in addition to and not in substitution for any other security now or hereafter held by the Agent or any other Secured Lender whether for indebtedness hereunder or under any Security. For greater certainty, no judgment recovered by the Agent or any other Secured Lender shall operate by way of merger or in any way affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the rates, times and manner as provided in this Agreement or any other Secured Document.

6.7

Material Subsidiary Designation

(a)

Provision of Guarantee and Security: Any Person which is required to be, or which the Borrower designates to be, a Material Subsidiary shall, within the timeframe required by Section 9.1(t), provide the Loan Party Guarantee and Security required to be provided pursuant to Section 6.1, together with such supporting resolutions, corporate certificates and legal opinions as the Agent may reasonably request, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, acting reasonably.

(b)

Optional Designation: Subject to Section 9.1(t), the Borrower may from time to time by notice in writing to the Agent be entitled to designate a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Borrower (whether direct or indirect) to be a Material Subsidiary; provided that the Borrower shall not be entitled to make any such designation if immediately after giving effect to any such designation a Default or Event of Default would occur or be continuing.

(c)

Redesignation as Subsidiary: Subject to Section 9.1(t), the Borrower may from time to time by notice in writing to the Agent be entitled to designate that a Material Subsidiary will no longer be a Material Subsidiary; provided that the Borrower shall not be entitled to make any such designation if immediately after giving effect to any such designation a Default or Event of Default would occur or be continuing.

Release of Loan Party Guarantee or Security

The Agent is instructed by the Lenders to release a Material Subsidiary from the Loan Party Guarantee and release and discharge the Security provided by it if required under Section 6.7(d), and to release and discharge Security if required pursuant to Section 6.9. The Agent is authorized by the Lenders to provide postponements of the Security at the reasonable discretion of the Agent with respect to Permitted Encumbrances. In the event of a Disposition permitted by Section 9.2(b) (if the Disposition is to a Person other than a Loan Party), the Agent is instructed by the Lenders (i) to release and discharge the Security with respect to the Collateral included in such Disposition and (ii) if all the capital stock of a Material Subsidiary is included in such Disposition, to release and discharge such Material Subsidiary from its obligations under the Loan Party Guarantee and the Security.

The Lenders hereby authorize the Agent, and the Agent hereby agrees, to release the Loan Party Guarantee and the Security and discharge the Security Interests constituted by the Security at the Borrower's sole cost and expense forthwith after all of the Secured Obligations have been unconditionally and irrevocably paid or performed in full and the Credit Facilities, all Lender Swaps (except where the Lender Swaps provide for alternate credit support if the Credit Facilities (or either of them) are terminated and the applicable Swap Lenders have confirmed receipt of such alternate credit support), all Bilateral Operating Facilities and all Cash Management Facilities have been terminated.

If, following the Release Date, the Borrower's corporate family ratings shall cease to be at least BBB- by S&P and at least Baa3 by Moody's, the Loan Parties shall promptly, and in any event within 60 days, enter into documentation reasonably requested by the Agent so as to cause the Secured Obligations to be secured on the same basis as the Security Obligations were secured prior to the Release Date.

the fact that any representation, warranty or covenant herein may make an exception for the existence of Permitted Encumbrances; or

- 83 -

(c)

the fact that the Security Interests created pursuant to the Loan Documents are stated to be subject to, or are not required to rank in priority to, Permitted Encumbrances;

shall in any manner, nor in any cause or proceeding, directly or indirectly, be taken to constitute a subordination of any Security Interest created pursuant to the Loan Documents to any Permitted Encumbrance or to any other Security Interest or other obligation whatsoever, it being the intention of the parties that all Security Interests created pursuant to the Loan Documents shall at all times, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, rank as first priority Security Interests in priority to Permitted Encumbrances (except in relation to those Permitted Encumbrances listed in subsections (j), (k), (p) and (t) of the definition of Permitted Encumbrances) and all other Security Interests or other obligations whatsoever.

6.11

Consent to Appointment of Collateral Agent

Prior to or concurrent with the issuance of any Second Lien Debt, the Borrower and the Lenders each hereby authorize the Agent to appoint an independent collateral agent, satisfactory to the Agent and the Second Lien Creditors (the "Collateral Agent") to hold common security documents for the common benefit of holders of the Secured Obligations and the Second Lien Creditors on terms substantially similar to the terms of the existing Security and otherwise on terms satisfactory to the Agent. At such time, the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders agree to enter into an amendment to, or an amendment and restatement of, the Credit Agreement, as may be required to reflect the issuance of such common security, such amendment or amendment and restatement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the Lenders, acting reasonably.

6.12

Bilateral Operating Facility Defeasance Collateral

The Agent and the Lenders hereby subordinate for the benefit of each Bilateral Operating Facility Lender, any Security Interests granted pursuant to the Security to any Security Interests granted in favour of such Bilateral Operating Facility Lender in any Bilateral Operating Facility Defeasance Collateral permitted under this Agreement. Upon written request by a Bilateral Operating Facility Lender to the Agent, the Agent (without the consent or direction of the Lenders) will promptly (and, in any event, within five Business Days of such written request of such Bilateral Operating Facility Lender) execute and deliver to such Bilateral Operating Facility Lender such agreements, instruments or other documents as such Bilateral Operating Facility Lender may reasonably request in order to evidence, acknowledge or further give effect to the foregoing subordination.

with the balance to be applied to repay or otherwise reduce Borrowings then due and payable so that the Borrowings outstanding hereunder to each Lender will to the extent possible, be in the same proportion as its Lender's Proportion of all Credit Facilities.

7.3

Taxes

(a)

Payments Clear of Taxes: Any and all payments any Loan Party makes to the Agent or any Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made without set-off or counterclaim, free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Tax.

(b)

Payments Subject to Taxes: If any Loan Party determines in good faith that it is required by Applicable Law to deduct, withhold or pay any Taxes, or if any liability for Taxes shall be imposed on the Agent or a Lender or shall arise against the Agent or a Lender from or in respect of any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document, then:

(i)

if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased by that Loan Party (and, in the case of a Material Subsidiary, the Borrower shall cause such Material Subsidiary to do so) by an amount (and, in the case of interest, the interest increased) when payable as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions, withholdings and payments (including deductions, withholdings and payments applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or payments been required;

- 85 -

(ii)

the Borrower shall, and shall cause any Material Subsidiary to, make any such deductions or withholdings required to be made by it under Applicable Law; and

(iii)

(d)

Indemnification by Borrower: The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender, within 10 Business Days after 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 7.3) paid in good faith by the Agent or such Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)

Indemnification by Lender: Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 Business Days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to provide written notice of an assignment of all or a portion of a Loan 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 Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set-off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this Section 7.3(e).

(f)

Evidence of Payments: As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(g)

FATCA: If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the 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 Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 7.3(g) "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(a)

Terminate Commitment: cease to make or continue any Borrowings hereunder, notwithstanding any prior receipt by the Agent of a Borrowing Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice or any other event and the Agent may, by written notice to the Borrower, declare the Total Commitment and the right of the Borrower to apply for further Accommodations to be terminated; and

(b)

Acceleration Notice: by written notice to the Borrower (an "Acceleration Notice"), declare all Borrowings (including the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) and other liabilities and indebtedness (whether matured or unmatured) of the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable (or to be due and payable at such later time as may be stated in such notice) without further demand, presentation, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Borrower;

provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 10.1(f) or 10.1(g) (each, an "Insolvency Event") the Total Commitment shall automatically terminate and all Borrowings (including the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) and other indebtedness and liabilities hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without any requirement that notice be given to the Borrower.

10.3

Demands for Repayment of other Secured Obligations

(a)

(i)

each Swap Lender may, within three (3) Business Days, deliver (to the extent applicable to it) a Swap Demand for Payment;

(ii)

each Bilateral Operating Facility Lender may, within three (3) Business Days, deliver (to the extent applicable to it) a Bilateral Operating Facility Demand for Repayment; and

(iii)

each Cash Management Facility Provider may within three (3) Business Days, deliver (to the extent applicable to it) a Cash Management Facility Demand for Repayment.

- 103 -

(b)

Termination Event: If a Termination Event has occurred, or an Acceleration Notice has been delivered by the Agent and all Secured Obligations are not thereafter due and payable, each Secured Lender shall, within three (3) Business Days, deliver such Demands for Repayment as may be necessary to ensure that all Secured Obligations are thereafter due and payable under all Secured Documents.

(c)

Notification by other Secured Lenders: If any Secured Lender (other than the Agent and the Lenders) proposes to deliver a Demand for Repayment, such Secured Lender shall notify the Agent of its determination (who shall thereupon promptly notify each Lender), and the Agent, within a further five (5) Business Days after receipt of the aforesaid notice, shall notify all such Secured Lenders whether the Agent, on behalf of the Majority Lenders, proposes to deliver an Acceleration Notice hereunder. If the Agent does not so advise such Secured Lenders within such five (5) Business Day period it shall be deemed to have advised that the Majority Lenders do not propose to deliver an Acceleration Notice. If the Agent does notify such Secured Lenders that the Majority Lenders propose to deliver an Acceleration Notice, all Demands for Repayment shall, to the extent not already delivered and to the extent practicable, be delivered concurrently by the Agent and the other Secured Lenders. If the Agent does notify such Secured Lenders that the Majority Lenders do not propose, or the Agent is deemed to have advised that the Majority Lenders do not propose, to deliver an Acceleration Notice, the Secured Lender which delivered the notice to the Agent may, if it has not already delivered its Demand for Repayment, at any time within thirty (30) days thereafter deliver the Demand for Repayment under its Secured Document. If the Secured Lender delivering any such Demand for Repayment does not receive the amount so demanded on or prior to the time stated in such Demand for Repayment, such Secured Lender shall so notify the Agent, and the Agent and each other Secured Lender shall forthwith concurrently deliver such Demands for Repayment as may be necessary to ensure that all Secured Obligations are thereafter due and payable under all Secured Documents.

(e)

Lender Affiliates: If a Secured Document is entered into with an Affiliate of a Lender, that Lender shall cause such Affiliate to be bound by this Agreement, including for certainty, any requirements to deliver a Demand for Repayment as required by this Section 10.3 and such obligations shall survive such Lender ceasing to be a Lender hereunder.

10.4

Cash Collateral Accounts

Upon the occurrence of:

(a)

a Termination Event or delivery of an Acceleration Notice; or

(b)

an event where the Borrower makes payment to a Cash Collateral Account of the required amount;

- 104 -

the Borrower shall forthwith pay to the Agent, for deposit into a Cash Collateral Account, an amount (which, in the case of (b) above, shall not be in excess of the required amount referred to therein) equal to the Lender's maximum potential liability under then outstanding SOFR Loans and CORRA Loans (unless the Borrower makes payment of the amount required pursuant to Section 11.6) (collectively, the "Escrow Funds"). The Escrow Funds shall, in the case of (a) above, be held by the Agent for set-off against future indebtedness owing by the Borrower to the Lenders in respect of such SOFR Loans and CORRA Loans (unless the Borrower makes payment of the amount required pursuant to Section 11.6) or, in the case of (b) above, be applied as required by Section 4.3

10.5

Remedies on Default

After an Event of Default:

(a)

Majority Lenders Instructions: if the Majority Lenders provide directions or instructions to the Agent, the Agent on behalf of all Secured Lenders shall take such actions and commence such proceedings as the Majority Lenders in their sole discretion may determine and may enforce or otherwise realize upon any Security, all without any obligation to marshal any Security Interests and without additional notice, presentation, demand or protest, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives (to the extent such rights may be waived under Applicable Law). If, from time to time, there are no Secured Lenders other than Swap Lenders, Bilateral Operating Facility Lenders or Cash Management Facility Providers, the Majority Lenders for the purposes of this Agreement shall be calculated by revising paragraph (b) of the definition of Majority Lenders to read: "during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default when there are any Secured Obligations outstanding, those Secured Lenders to whom there is owing 50.1% or more of the aggregate Secured Obligations under all Secured Documents;";

(b)

General Remedies: the rights and remedies of the Agent and each Secured Lender under the Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law. The Agent may, on behalf of all Secured Lenders, and shall, if so required by the Majority Lenders, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, bring suit at law, in equity or otherwise for any available relief or purpose including but not limited to:

(i)

Specific Performance: the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in the Loan Documents;

10.7

Application and Sharing of Payments Following Acceleration

Except as otherwise agreed to by all the Secured Lenders in their sole discretion, all monies and property received by the Secured Lenders for application in respect of the Secured Obligations subsequent to the Adjustment Time and all monies received as a result of a realization upon the Loan Party Guarantee and the Security shall be applied and distributed to the Secured Lenders in the manner set forth below, each such application to be made in the following order with any balance remaining after application in respect of each category to be applied to the next succeeding category:

(a)

firstly, in or towards payment of any fees or expenses then due and payable to the Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

(b)

secondly, Rateably among the Secured Lenders in respect of amounts due and payable to such Secured Lenders as and by way of recoverable expenses under its Secured Documents or under any of the Security;

To the extent that a Secured Document is entered into by an Affiliate of a Lender, that Lender shall cause such Affiliate to comply with the provisions of this Section 10.7 and such obligation shall survive such Lender ceasing to be a Lender hereunder.

10.8

Adjustments Among Lenders

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary or any other Loan Document, if the Agent has delivered an Acceleration Notice or an Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing:

- 106 -

(a)

each Lender agrees that it will at any time or from time to time thereafter at the request of the Agent as required by any Lender, purchase at par on a non-recourse basis a participation in Borrowings owing to each of the other Lenders and make any other adjustments as are necessary or appropriate, in order that Borrowings owing to each of the Lenders, as adjusted pursuant to this Section 10.8, will be in the same proportion as each Lender's Commitment was to the Total Commitment immediately prior to the delivery of such Acceleration Notice occurrence of the Insolvency Event (as the case may be); and

(b)

the amount of any repayment made by or on behalf of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, any proceeds from the exercise of any rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents and any distribution or payment received by the Agent or the Lenders with respect to the Loan Parties in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, liquidation, arrangement, compromise or composition, will be applied by the Agent in a manner such that to the extent possible the amount of Borrowings owing to each Lender after giving effect to such application will be in the same proportion as each Lender's Commitment was to the Total Commitment immediately prior to the delivery of such Acceleration Notice occurrence of the Insolvency Event (as the case may be).

Each Lender shall, at any time and from time to time at the request of the Agent as required by any Lender, execute and deliver such agreements, instruments and other documents and take such other steps and actions as may be required to confirm, evidence or give effect to the foregoing.

10.9

Lender May Perform Covenants

If any Loan Party shall fail to perform any of its obligations under any covenant contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document within the time permitted for the performance of any such covenant or for the cure of any default thereof, the Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Lenders and with the approval of the Majority Lenders and with prior notification to the Borrower, perform any such covenant capable of being performed by it and, if any such covenant requires the payment or expenditure of money, it may make such payment or expenditure with its own funds on behalf of the Secured Lenders. If the Agent elects to effect such observance or performance, neither the Agent nor any Secured Lender shall be liable for any failure or deficiency in effecting such observance or performance, nor for the payment of any bills, invoices or accounts incurred or rendered in connection therewith, except to the extent the Agent or such Secured Lender is grossly negligent or acts with wilful misconduct. All amounts so paid by the Agent hereunder shall be repaid by the Borrower on demand therefor, and shall bear interest at the rate set forth in Section 5.6 from and including the date paid by the Agent hereunder to but excluding the date such amounts are repaid in full by the Borrower and shall be guaranteed by the Loan Party Guarantee and secured by the Security.

10.10

Waiver of Default

Any single or partial exercise by any Secured Lender, the Agent or by the Agent on behalf of any Secured Lender of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document shall not be deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy to which the Agent or such Secured Lender may be lawfully entitled for the same default or breach, and any waiver by any Secured Lender, the Agent or by the Agent on behalf of any Lender or Swap Lender of the strict observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document, and any indulgence granted thereby, shall be deemed not to be a waiver of any subsequent default. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower hereby waives any rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise which are inconsistent with the Agent's or a Secured Lender's rights or remedies under the Loan Documents and any other Secured Document.

- 108 -

(a)

subjects a Lender to any Tax, changes the basis of taxation of payments due to a Lender or increases any existing Tax, on payments of principal, interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower to a Lender under this Agreement;

and the result of (a), (b) or (c) is, in the sole determination of such Lender acting reasonably and in good faith, to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce the income receivable by such Lender in respect of a Borrowing, such Lender (other than the Operating Lender) shall promptly notify the Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States, Canadian or other regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III ((i) and (ii) being, the "New Rules"), shall in each case be deemed to be a "change in law" for the purposes of this Section 11.2, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued, in each case (i) to the extent materially different from that in effect on the date hereof and (ii) to the extent that such New Rules have general application to substantially all of the banks within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates.

The Agent or the Operating Lender, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of such Lender or to the Operating Lender, as applicable, from time to time that amount which compensates such Lender or the Operating Lender, as applicable, for such additional cost or reduction in income from time to time ("Additional Compensation") on the next Interest Date in the case of a SOFR Loan or a CORRA Loan, on the next date of issuance of any Letters of Credit or on the next Interest Date in any other case (and each successive Interest Date or date of issuance, if applicable), provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such Additional Compensation unless such Lender or the Operating Lender, as applicable, is generally claiming similar compensation from other customers in similar circumstances, and the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any portion of such Additional Compensation accruing under this Section 11.2 for any period prior to the date which is three (3) months prior to the date on which the Agent, on behalf of such Lender, or the Operating Lender, as applicable, gives notice to the Borrower that such Additional Compensation is so accruing, provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such three (3) month period shall be extended to involve the period of such retroactive effect. A photocopy of the relevant law, regulation, treaty, official directive or regulatory requirement (or, if it is impracticable to provide a photocopy, a written summary of the same) and a certificate by a duly authorized officer of such Lender or the Operating Lender, as applicable, (prepared in good faith) setting forth the amount of the Additional Compensation and the basis for it must be submitted by the Agent or the Operating Lender, as applicable, to the Borrower and is prima facie evidence of the amount of the Additional Compensation. If the Agent or Operating Facility Lender, as applicable, notifies the Borrower that Additional Compensation is owed, the Borrower shall pay such Additional Compensation to the Agent for the account of such Lender or the Operating Lender, as applicable, and the Borrower shall have the right, upon written irrevocable prior notice of at least three (3) Business Days to the Agent or the Operating Lender, as applicable, to make payment in full to the Agent or the Operating Lender, as applicable, for the account of such Lender or to the Operating Lender, as applicable, in respect of the applicable Borrowing on the date specified in such notice together with accrued but unpaid interest and fees in respect of such Borrowing or to convert such Borrowing into another basis of Borrowing available under this Agreement.

- 109 -

11.3

Illegality

(a)

If the introduction of or any change in Applicable Law, regulation, treaty, official directive or regulatory requirement now or hereafter in effect (whether or not having the force of law) or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any court or by any judicial or Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, makes it unlawful or prohibited for a Lender (in its sole opinion acting reasonably and in good faith) to make, fund or maintain the Borrowings or a portion of the Borrowings or to perform its obligations under this Agreement, such Lender may by written notice to the Borrower through the Agent terminate its obligations under this Agreement to make such Borrowings or perform such obligations and the Borrower shall either (i) prepay such Borrowings within fifteen (15) Business Days together with all accrued but unpaid interest and fees as may be applicable to the date of payment, or (ii) convert by notice to the Agent or the Operating Lender, as applicable, such Borrowings forthwith into another basis of Borrowing available under this Agreement. If any Lender determines, acting reasonably, that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender to hold or benefit from a Security Interest over real property pursuant to any law of Canada or the United States (or any province, state or territory thereof) or otherwise, such Lender may notify the Agent and disclaim any benefit of such Security Interest to the extent of such illegality; provided, that such determination or disclaimer shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such Security Interest for the benefit of the Agent or any other Lender.

(b)

Without derogation from Section 11.3(a), if any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Borrowings where the interest is determined by reference to SOFR, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, CORRA, Term CORRA, Adjusted Term CORRA, Daily Compounded CORRA or Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rates, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower (through the Agent, in the case of the Syndicated Facility) (an "Interest Rate Illegality Notice"), (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or Rollover SOFR Loans or to convert U.S. Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans, or to make or Rollover CORRA Loans or to convert Prime Loans to CORRA Loans, shall, in each case, be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining U.S. Base Rate Loans or Prime Loans, the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted Term SOFR component of the U.S. Base Rate or by reference to the Adjusted Term CORRA component of the Prime Rate (respectively), the interest rate on which U.S. Base Rate Loans or Prime Loans (as the case may be) of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Adjusted Term SOFR component of the U.S. Base Rate or to the Adjusted Term CORRA component of the Prime Rate (as the case may be), in each case, until each affected Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of an Interest Rate Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all SOFR Loans and CORRA Loans of such Lender to U.S. Base Rate Loans or Prime Loans, as applicable, (the interest rate on which U.S. Base Rate Loans or Prime Loans, as applicable, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the U.S. Base Rate or the Term CORRA component of the Prime Rate, as applicable), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loan or CORRA Loan to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loan or CORRA Loan. Upon any such prepayment or Conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 11.6.

11.4

Temporary Market Disruption

Subject to Section 11.5 if:

(a)

the Agent, in the case of the Syndicated Facility, or the Operating Lender, in the case of the Operating Facility (as the case may be), determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that any Benchmark cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof and, in the case of the Operating Facility Lender, it has provided notice of such determination to the Agent; or

(b)

in the case of the Operating Facility, the Operating Lender, or, in the case of the Syndicated Facility, the Lenders holding Commitments which constitute at least 35% of the Total Syndicated Facility Commitment, in each case, determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Drawdown of any Benchmark Loan, or a Conversion thereto or a Rollover thereof, that the applicable Benchmark with respect to a proposed Benchmark Loan (or for any requested Interest Period thereof) does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Benchmark Loan, and such Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Agent,

then, in each case, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Upon notice thereof by the Agent to the Borrower as aforesaid, any obligation of, in the case of such notice by the Agent in respect of the Syndicated Facility, the Syndicated Facility Lenders, or, in the case of such notice by the Agent in respect of the Operating Facility, the Operating Lender, in each case, to make such Benchmark Loans, and the right of the Borrower to Rollover such Benchmark Loans, or to convert any other Loans into such Benchmark Loans, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Benchmark Loans or affected Interest Periods) until the Agent (at the instruction of the Operating Lender, in the case of the Operating Facility, or at the instruction of Syndicated Lenders to the Agent holding 35% of the Total Syndicated Facility Commitment) revokes such notice.

Upon receipt of such notice:

(i)

in respect of any affected SOFR Loans, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Drawdown of, Conversion to or Rollover of such SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or affected Interest Periods) or, failing such revocation, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Drawdown of or Conversion to U.S. Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (B) any such outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into U.S. Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period; and

(ii)

in respect of any affected CORRA Loans, (A)(I) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Drawdown of, Conversion to or Rollover of such CORRA Loans (to the extent of such affected CORRA Loans or affected Interest Periods), (II) in respect of Term CORRA Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert any such request into a request for a Drawdown of, or Conversion to, Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, or, failing such revocation or election (III) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Drawdown of or Conversion to Prime Loans, in the amount specified therein, and (B)(I) in respect of Term CORRA Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert any outstanding affected Term CORRA Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period, into Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, and (II) otherwise, or failing such election, any outstanding CORRA Loans will be deemed to have been converted, at the end of the applicable Interest Period into Prime Loans,

- 111 -

in each case, upon any such Conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 11.6. Subject to Section 11.5, if, in the case of the Syndicated Facility, the Agent or, in the case of the Operating Facility, the Operating Lender (as the case may be) determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that any Benchmark cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on U.S. Base Rate Loans or Prime Loans, as applicable, shall be determined by the Agent or the Operating Lender (as the case may be) without reference to subparagraph (c) of the definition of "U.S. Base Rate" or subparagraph (b) of the definition of "Prime Rate" until the Agent or the Operating Lender (as the case may be) revokes such determination.

11.5

Benchmark Replacement Settings

(a)

Benchmark Replacement.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of any then-current Benchmark, then (A) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with subparagraph (a)(i) or (b)(i) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement" for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with subparagraph (a)(ii), (b)(ii) or (c) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement" for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Majority Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.

(ii)

If the Benchmark Replacement is (A) Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments on Benchmark Loans which bear interest with reference to such rate will be payable on a monthly basis or (B) Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA, all interest payments on Benchmark Loans which bear interest with reference to such rate will be payable on the applicable Interest Date.

- 112 -

(b)

Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of any Benchmark or the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c)

Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Agent will notify the Borrower of (A) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 11.5(d) and (B) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 11.5, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 11.5.

(d)

Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is based upon a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate or the Term CORRA Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Agent (in consultation with the Operating Lender, in the case of the Operating Facility), in its discretion, acting reasonably, or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Agent (in consultation with the Operating Lender, in the case of the Operating Facility) may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings for an affected Credit Facility at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Agent (in consultation with the Operating Lender, in the case of the Operating Facility) may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings for the applicable Credit Facility at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e)

Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Drawdown of, Conversion to or Rollover of any Benchmark Loan to be made, converted or rolled over during any applicable Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Drawdown of or Conversion to the applicable Benchmark Fallback Loans and (ii) any outstanding affected Benchmark Loans will be deemed to have been converted to the applicable Benchmark Fallback Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period for any then-current Benchmark or at any time that a tenor for any then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the U.S. Base Rate or the Prime Rate, as applicable, based upon such Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the U.S. Base Rate or the Prime Rate, as applicable.

- 113 -

11.6

Funding Indemnity

If, for any reason whatsoever and whether or not required or permitted pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower repays, prepays, converts or cancels a SOFR Loan or CORRA Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to such SOFR Loan or CORRA Loan, or fails for any reason to borrow, convert, rollover or otherwise act in accordance with a notice given hereunder pursuant to Schedule B, Schedule C or Schedule D, the Borrower shall indemnify the Applicable Lender for any loss or expense incurred by such Lender as a direct result thereof including, without limitation, any loss of profit or expenses such Lender incurs by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to maintain the SOFR Loan or CORRA Loan, as applicable, or other Borrowing or any increased interest or other charges payable to lenders of funds borrowed in order to maintain such SOFR Loan or CORRA Loan, as applicable, or other Borrowing together with any other out-of-pocket charges, costs or expenses incurred by such Lender relative thereto. A certificate of such Lender (acting reasonably and prepared in good faith) submitted by such Lender setting out the basis for the determination of the amount necessary to indemnify such Lender shall be prima facie evidence thereof.

11.7

General and Environmental Indemnity

The Borrower hereby agrees to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents, advisors and controlling persons (each, an "Indemnitee") harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel, with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including any of the foregoing relating to, arising out of, or in connection with:

(a)

the use of proceeds of any Credit Facility;

(b)

any actual, alleged or threatened Release in respect of any assets or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, whether now owned or hereafter acquired;

(c)

any remedial action required to be taken under any Environmental Laws by an Indemnitee in respect of any Release or in respect of the environmental condition of any assets or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

(d)

any non-compliance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any predecessor in title under any Environmental Laws, in respect of actions of any Governmental Authority under any Environmental Laws or in respect of the environmental condition of any assets or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; or

- 114 -

(e)

any Environmental Liability arising directly or indirectly from the provision by any Lender of credit to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the provision or granting of any Security Interest to the Agent or any Lender or any realization of, against or upon any of the assets or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

(all the foregoing in this Section 11.7, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"), provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or from a Release at, on, under or from assets or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that occurs entirely following an Indemnitee's taking possession of such assets or property by foreclosure, power of sale or similar transfer and that did not exist on or at such asset or property prior to such Indemnitee's possession thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with its activities related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any of the transactions in connection herewith or therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee except in the case of gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitees. The agreements in this Section 11.7 shall survive repayment of the Credit Facilities and all other amounts payable hereunder.

11.8

Replacement Lender

If:

(a)

a Lender exercises its rights under Section 11.2, Section 11.3 or Section 11.4;

(b)

the Borrower is required under Section 7.3 to deduct any withholding Taxes in respect of amounts owing to any Lender;

(c)

any Lender withholds its consent to any amendment, consent or determination requested by the Borrower which requires the approval of the Lenders and as a consequence thereof such amendment, consent or determination cannot be obtained;

(d)

a Fronting Lender has resigned as a Fronting Lender and terminated its Fronted LC Commitment pursuant to Section 3.9(k)(i); or

(e)

a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender;

the Borrower may, treating each affected Lender rateably and in the same manner as other Lenders subject to similar circumstances (all such Lenders being the "Affected Lenders"):

(i)

replace all Affected Lenders by reaching satisfactory arrangements with one or more existing Lenders or new Lenders that are acceptable to the Agent and each Fronting Lender, each acting reasonably, for the purchase of all of such Affected Lenders' Commitments as long as:

(A)

such purchasing Lender(s) unconditionally offers in writing (with copy to the Agent) to purchase all of the rights and obligations of the Affected Lender(s) including all outstanding Borrowings owed to such Affected Lender(s) for a purchase price equal to the aggregate Borrowings owed to the Affected Lender(s) (payable in immediately available funds);

- 115 -

(B)

the obligations of the Borrower owing pursuant to Section 7.3 and Section 11.1 to the Affected Lender(s) are paid in full to the Affected Lender(s) concurrently with such replacement; and

(C)

all requirements set forth in Section 13.1 with respect to such assignment are complied with, including entering into of a Lender Transfer Agreement and the payment by the purchasing Lender to the Agent (for the Agent's own account) of the assignment fee contemplated in Section 13.1, unless waived by the Agent; or

(ii)

so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and without regard to Section 4.4, irrevocably cancel all but not part of the Affected Lenders' Commitments if the Borrower has prepaid or otherwise reduced (or will concurrently prepay or otherwise reduce) all Borrowings outstanding to such Affected Lenders, and paid all accrued interest and other charges and fees in respect of such Borrowings.

11.9

Defaulting Lenders

(a)

Consequences: Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i)

the standby fees payable pursuant to Section 5.10 shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;

(ii)

a Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether, and the Commitment and the Lender's Proportion of the Obligations or Borrowings of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether, all Lenders or the Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 12.12), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that (A) materially and adversely affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders, (B) increases the Commitment or extends the Maturity Date of such Defaulting Lender, or (C) relates to the matters set forth in Sections 12.12(a)(i), (v) and (vii), shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and

(iii)

for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall retain and reserve its other rights and remedies respecting each Defaulting Lender.

(b)

Funding: If the Agent has actual knowledge that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender at the time that the Agent receives (i) a Borrowing Notice or (ii) a Conversion Notice that will result in a currency conversion, then each other Lender shall fund its Lender's Proportion of such affected Accommodation (and, in calculating such Lender's Proportion, the Agent shall ignore the Commitments of each such Defaulting Lender); provided that, for certainty, no Lender shall be obligated by this Section 11.9(b) to make or provide Accommodations in excess of its Commitment. If the Agent acquires actual knowledge that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender at any time after the Agent receives (i) a Borrowing Notice or (ii) a Conversion Notice that will result in a currency conversion, then the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower that such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and such Lender shall be deemed to have consented to such disclosure). Each Defaulting Lender agrees to indemnify each other Lender for any amounts paid by such Lender under this Section 11.9(b) and which would otherwise have been paid by the Defaulting Lender if its Commitment had been included in determining the Lender's Proportion of such affected Accommodations.

- 116 -

(c)

Fronting Lender Requirements: Any Fronting Lender may require a Defaulting Lender to pay to the Agent for deposit into an escrow account maintained by and in the name of the Agent an amount equal to such Defaulting Lenders' maximum contingent obligations hereunder to such Fronting Lender.

(d)

Letters of Credit: If any Letters of Credit are outstanding (with the Equivalent Amount in U.S. Dollars of the undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit being referred to as the "Defaulting Lender Exposure") at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

(i)

to the extent the Defaulting Lender has not provided cash collateral for its Defaulting Lender Exposure pursuant to Section 11.9(c) above, such Defaulting Lender Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders for the purposes of Section 3.9(d) in accordance with their respective Lender's Proportions (disregarding any Defaulting Lender's Commitment) but only to the extent that the sum of (A) the aggregate Equivalent Amount in U.S. Dollars of the Borrowings made by any non-Defaulting Lender and outstanding at such time, plus (B) such non-Defaulting Lender's rateable share (after giving effect to the reallocation contemplated herein) of the Defaulting Lender Exposure, does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender's Commitment; and

(ii)

if the reallocation described in Section 11.9(d)(i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by any Fronting Lender provide cash collateral in accordance with Section 3.9(l) for any portion for which the reallocation could not be effected, and the provisions of such Section shall apply thereto as if a demand has been made pursuant thereto by each Fronting Lender in respect of each outstanding Letter of Credit.

(e)

Fronting Lender Exposure: So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, a Fronting Lender shall not be required to issue any Letters of Credit unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitment of non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with Section 11.9(d) and participating interests in any such newly issued Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 11.9(d)(i).

(f)

Ceasing to be Defaulting Lender: If any Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender, then, upon becoming aware of the same, the Agent shall notify the other Lenders and (in accordance with the written direction of the Agent) such Lender (which has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender) shall purchase, and the other Lenders shall on a rateable basis sell and assign to such Lender, portions of such Obligations equal in total to such Lender's Lender's Proportion thereof without regard to Section 11.9(b).

- 117 -

(g)

Defaulting Lender Cure: If the Borrower, the Agent, and the Fronting Lenders agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender (except in the case of a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender pursuant paragraph (e) of the definition of "Defaulting Lender"), the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may reasonably determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Lender's Proportions under the applicable Credit Facilities (without regard to Section 11.9(b)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Article 12
THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS

12.1

Authorization of Agent

Each Secured Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to exercise such powers, perform such duties, take such actions, make such decisions and determinations and give such consents under the Loan Documents as are required to be exercised, performed, taken, made, given or otherwise carried out by the Agent hereunder or under any other agreement between the Lenders (including, if applicable, other Secured Lenders), together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly required by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or by any other agreement between the Lenders (including, if applicable, other Secured Lenders) to be carried out by the Agent, the Agent is not required to exercise any discretion or take or to refrain from taking any action except upon the written instructions of the Majority Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or to take or to refrain from taking any action in any manner which is contrary to the Loan Documents, to any other agreement between the Lenders (including, if applicable, other Secured Lenders) or to Applicable Law.

12.2

Responsibility of Agent

The Agent makes no representation or warranty and accepts no responsibility with respect to the due execution, legality, validity, sufficiency, enforceability or priority of any of the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document nor with respect to the due execution, legality, validity, sufficiency, enforceability, accuracy or authenticity of any documents, papers, materials or other information furnished by the Borrower (or any other Person, including the Agent or any Loan Party) in connection with the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document, whether provided before or after the date of this Agreement. The Agent shall incur no liability to the Secured Lenders under or in respect of the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document with respect to anything which it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment or which may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the circumstances, except for its gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Agent assumes no responsibility for the payment of any of the Obligations or other Secured Obligations by any Loan Party.

- 118 -

12.3

Acknowledgment of Secured Lenders

Each Secured Lender acknowledges to the Agent that it has been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of and investigation into the financial condition, creditworthiness, environmental soundness, affairs, status and nature of the Loan Parties and accordingly each Secured Lender confirms to the Agent that it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely on the Agent:

(a)

Information: to check or inquire on its behalf into the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information provided by any Loan Party or provided in connection with the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document (whether or not such information has been or is hereafter circulated to such Secured Lender by the Agent);

(b)

Performance: to inquire as to the performance by any Loan Party of its obligations under the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document; or

(c)

Credit Review: to assess or keep under review on its behalf the financial condition, creditworthiness, environmental soundness, affairs, status or nature of any Loan Party.

12.4

Rights and Obligations of Each Secured Lender

The rights and obligations of each Secured Lender under this Agreement are several and no Lender shall be obligated to make Borrowings available to the Borrower in excess of the amount of such Lender's Commitment. The failure of a Secured Lender to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall neither:

(a)

No Liability to Other Secured Lenders: result in any other Secured Lender incurring any liability whatsoever, provided however that a Lender shall remain liable at all times for the performance of the obligations hereunder of its Affiliate that is a Secured Lender; nor

(b)

No Relief from Obligations: relieve any Loan Party or any other Secured Lender from its respective obligations under any Loan Document or other Secured Document.

Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document or Secured Document nor any action taken pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute the Secured Lenders a partnership, joint venture or any other similar entity.

Each of the Secured Lenders hereby acknowledge that, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the remedies provided hereunder to the Secured Lenders are for their benefit collectively and acting together and not severally, and further acknowledge that its rights hereunder are to be exercised not severally but collectively by the Agent upon the decision of the Majority Lenders regardless of whether an Acceleration Notice has been delivered or an Event of Default under Sections 10.1(f) or 10.1(g) has occurred. Notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein each of the Secured Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to individually take any action with respect to the Loan Documents including, without limitation, taking (including in respect of its Commitment or any indebtedness or liability owed to it) any action contemplated in Sections 10.2 and 10.5, but that any such action shall be taken only by the Agent with the prior written agreement or instructions of the Majority Lenders; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Agent, having been adequately indemnified against costs and expenses of doing so by the Lenders, shall fail to carry out any such instructions of the Majority Lenders, any Secured Lender may do so on behalf of all Secured Lenders and shall, in so doing, be entitled to the benefit of all protection give the Agent hereunder or elsewhere. If it becomes illegal for any Lender to hold or benefit from the Security over the assets or shares of the Borrower or a Material Subsidiary pursuant to any law of the United States of America, such Lender shall notify the Agent and disclaim any benefit of such Security over the assets or shares of such Borrower or Material Subsidiary to the extent of such illegality, but such illegality shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such Security or the Security Interest granted thereunder for the benefit of each of the other Lenders.

- 119 -

12.5

Notice to Secured Lenders

Unless otherwise specifically dealt with in this Agreement, in the event the Agent delivers a written notice to a Secured Lender requesting advice from such Secured Lender as to whether it consents or objects to any matter in connection with the Loan Documents, then, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if such Secured Lender does not deliver to the Agent its written consent or objection to such matter:

(a)

where a time period is specified hereunder for the Agent or the Majority Lenders to provide any response, notice or other communication prior to the end of such period; or

(b)

where no such time period is specified hereunder, then within fifteen (15) Business Days of the delivery of such written notice by the Agent to such Secured Lender;

such Secured Lender shall be deemed not to have consented thereto.

12.6

Notices between the Secured Lenders, the Agent and the Borrower

All notices by the Secured Lenders to the Agent shall be through the Agent's Branch of Account and all notices by the Agent to a Secured Lender shall be through such Secured Lender's Branch of Account. All notices or communications between the Borrower and the Secured Lenders which are required or contemplated pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be given or made through the Agent at the Agent's Branch of Account.

12.7

Agent's Duty to Deliver Documents Obtained from the Borrower

The Agent shall promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, deliver to each Lender, at its Branch of Account in hard copy or electronic form, such documents, papers, materials and other information as are furnished by the Borrower to the Agent on behalf of such Lender pursuant to this Agreement, and the Borrower shall provide the Agent with sufficient copies of all such information for such purpose.

12.8

Arrangements for Borrowings

The Agent shall promptly give written notice to each Syndicated Lender at its Branch of Account upon receipt by the Agent of any notice given pursuant to Article 3 or Section 4.3. The Agent shall advise each Syndicated Lender of the amount, date and details of each Syndicated Borrowing and of such Syndicated Lender's share in each Syndicated Borrowing. At or before 1 p.m. (Toronto time) on each Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or Rollover Date, each Syndicated Lender will make available to the Borrower its share of Syndicated Borrowings by way of Loans by forwarding to the Agent at the Agent's Account for Payments the amount of Loans required to be made available by such Syndicated Lender.

- 120 -

12.9

Arrangements for Repayment of Borrowings

(a)

Prior to Demand or Acceleration: Prior to the delivery of an Acceleration Notice or the occurrence of an Insolvency Event, upon receipt by the Agent of payments from the Borrower on account of principal, interest, fees or any other payment made to the Agent on behalf of the Syndicated Lenders, the Agent shall pay over to each Syndicated Lender at its Branch of Account the amount to which it is entitled under this Agreement and shall use its best efforts to make such payment to such Lender on the same Business Day on which such payment is received by the Agent. If the Agent does not remit any such payment to a Syndicated Lender on the same Business Day as such payment is received by the Agent, the Agent shall pay interest thereon to such Lender until the date of payment at a rate determined by the Agent (such rate to be conclusive and binding on such Lender) in accordance with the Agent's usual banking practice in respect of deposits of amounts comparable to the amount of such payment which are received by the Agent at a time similar to the time at which such payment is received by the Agent.

(b)

Subsequent to Acceleration: After the Adjustment Time, the Secured Lenders shall share any payments subsequently received in accordance with Section 10.7

12.10

Repayment by Lenders to Agent

(a)

Where the Borrower Fails to Pay: Unless the Agent has been notified in writing by the Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date on which any payment to be made by such Borrower hereunder is due that such Borrower does not intend to remit such payment, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in its discretion, assume that the Borrower has remitted such payment when so due and the Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each Syndicated Lender on such payment date an amount equal to the amount of such payment which is due to such Lender pursuant to this Agreement. If the Borrower does not in fact remit such payment to the Agent, the Agent shall promptly notify each Syndicated Lender and each such Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon until the date of repayment thereof at a rate determined by the Agent (such rate to be conclusive and binding on such Lender) in accordance with the Agent's usual banking practice for similar advances to financial institutions of like standing to such Lender.

(b)

Where a Syndicated Lender Fails to Pay: Unless the Agent has been notified in writing by a Syndicated Lender at least one (1) Business Day prior to a Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or Rollover Date that such Lender does not intend to make available the amount required to be made available by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement on such Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or Rollover Date, the Agent may, in its discretion, assume that such Lender has remitted funds to the Agent in an amount equal to the amount required to be made available by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or Rollover Date an amount equal to the amount required to be made available by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement. If a Syndicated Lender does not in fact remit such funds to the Agent and, if the Agent has provided funds to the Borrower on behalf of such Lender, the Agent shall promptly notify such Lender and such Lender shall forthwith remit such funds to the Agent, failing which the Borrower shall within two (2) Business Days repay to the Agent (without prejudice to the Borrower's rights against such Lender) the amount made available by the Agent on behalf of such Lender, in each case together with interest thereon until the date of repayment thereof at a rate determined by the Agent (such rate to be conclusive and binding on such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be) in accordance with the Agent's usual banking practice for similar advances to financial institutions of like standing to such Lender.

12.11

Adjustments Among Secured Lenders

(a)

Adjustments to Secured Obligations: Each Lender agrees that, on and after the Adjustment Time, it will at any time and from time to time upon the request of the Agent as required by any other Lender purchase portions of the Secured Obligations and make any other adjustments which may be necessary or appropriate, in order that Secured Obligations which remain outstanding to each Secured Lender, as adjusted pursuant to this Section 12.11, in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.7.

(b)

Receipt of Payments other than Secured Obligations: Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 12.11, there shall not be taken into account for the purposes of computing any amount payable to a Secured Lender pursuant to this Section 12.11, any amount which such Secured Lender receives as a result of any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of any monies owing by a Loan Party to such Secured Lender other than on account of Secured Obligations; provided that, if at any time a Secured Lender receives any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of monies owing or payable to it by a Loan Party on account of Secured Obligations, such payments will be applied in accordance with Section 10.7; and provided further that:

(i)

notwithstanding the foregoing, any Bilateral Operating Facility Defeasance Collateral provided to a Bilateral Operating Lender in accordance herewith may be set-off and applied by the applicable Bilateral Operating Facility Lender to such amounts owed by the Borrower to such Bilateral Operating Facility Lender pursuant to letters of credit issued pursuant to a Bilateral Operating Facility without regard to the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.11(b); and

(ii)

the provisions of this Section 12.11(b) shall not apply to a Swap Lender which sets off amounts owing by a Loan Party to such Swap Lender under a Lender Swap against amounts owing by such Swap Lender (including, for clarity, its Affiliates) to a Loan Party under any Lender Swap entered into between such parties.

To the extent that a Secured Document is entered into by an Affiliate of a Lender, that Lender shall cause such Affiliate to comply with the provisions of this Section 12.11, and such obligation shall survive such Lender ceasing to be a Lender hereunder.

(c)

Additional Adjustments: In the event that:

(i)

Contingent Liabilities: at the Adjustment Time, a portion of the Secured Obligations are outstanding as letters of credit or letters of guarantee and it is subsequently determined that the applicable Secured Lenders are not required to make payment under any one or more such instruments; or

- 122 -

(ii)

Notice Periods: any of the Secured Lenders are required by Applicable Law to continue to make advances or other amounts available to the Borrower subsequent to the Adjustment Time by reason of a requirement in Applicable Law to give the Borrower a reasonable period of notice prior to terminating such Lender's obligation to make such advances or other amounts available;

then, whenever and so often as that occurs, Secured Obligations shall be redetermined by excluding from the determination of the amount of Secured Obligations any payments not required to be made as a result of the occurrence of an event described in Section 12.11(c)(i) and by including in the determination of Secured Obligations any amount required to be made available pursuant to Section 12.11(c)(ii), and the Secured Lenders shall thereupon make all such payments and adjustments as may be necessary to ensure amounts outstanding to the Secured Lenders are thereafter outstanding in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.11;

(d)

Lender Swap Calculations: For the purposes of this Agreement, if a Swap Demand for Repayment has been delivered or a Termination Event has occurred with respect to a Lender Swap, then then, for the purposes of calculations to be made at the Adjustment Time, any Termination Amount which is payable by any Loan Party under such Swap in settlement of obligations arising thereunder as a result of the early termination of the Swap shall be deemed to have become payable at the time of delivery of such Swap Demand for Repayment or the time of occurrence of such Termination Event as the case may be, notwithstanding that the amount payable by any Loan Party is to be subsequently calculated and notice thereof given to such Loan Party in accordance with such Swap. For the purposes of the foregoing, the Agent shall make all determinations of the applicable Termination Amounts in accordance with its usual practices, acting reasonably, and for such purposes each Lender shall provide details to the Agent of its own calculations of the applicable Termination Amounts.

(e)

Further Assurances: The Borrower agrees to be bound by and, at the request of the Agent, to do all things necessary or appropriate to give effect to any and all purchases and other adjustments made by and between the Secured Lenders pursuant to this Section 12.11 but shall incur no increased indebtedness, in aggregate, by reason thereof.

12.12

Lenders' Consents to Waivers, Amendments, etc.

a change in the types of Borrowings or interest periods relating thereto, a decrease in the Applicable Margin, a change in pro rata Lender provisions relating to advances or repayments of Borrowings, or a change in notice periods or the amount of any payments payable by the Borrower to any Lender under this Agreement including any waiver of the time of payment thereof;

(ii)

(iii)

a change in the definition of "Majority Lenders" or "Maturity Date";

(v)

the provisions of this Section 12.12;

(vi)

an Event of Default under Section 10.1(a); or

(vii)

any release, subordination or material modification of the Loan Party Guarantee or the Security, except as provided by Section 6.8, Section 6.9 or the applicable provisions of the Loan Party Guarantee or the Security;

(c)

Agent's Consent: Any waiver, consent to or amendment to any provision of the Loan Documents which affects the rights or obligations of the Agent shall require the agreement of the Agent thereto.

Operating Lender's Consent: Any waiver, consent to or any amendment to any provision of the Loan Documents which affects the rights or obligations of the Operating Lender shall only require the agreement of the Operating Lender thereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.12 or any other provision of this Agreement:

(i)

any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Agent to (i) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by the Agent and the Borrower) or (ii) effect administrative changes of a technical or immaterial nature (including to effect changes to the terms and conditions applicable solely to the Fronting Banks in respect of issuances of Letters of Credit) and such amendment shall be deemed approved by the Lenders if the Lenders shall have received at least five (5) Business Days' prior written notice of such change and the Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Majority Lenders stating that the Majority Lenders object to such amendment;

(ii)

the Agent and the Borrower 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 Agent deems appropriate in order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or any Conforming Change or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 11.4 and Section 11.5 in accordance with the terms thereof; and

- 124 -

(iii)

in connection with the use or administration of any Benchmark or the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time in accordance with such Section 11.5(b).

12.13

Reimbursement of Agent's Expenses or Lender's Costs

Each Secured Lender agrees that it will indemnify the Agent for its Lender's Proportion of the Total Commitment of any and all costs, expenses and disbursements (including, without limitation, those costs and expenses referred to in Section 11.1) which may be incurred or made by the Agent in good faith in connection with the Loan Documents, and agrees that it will, on written demand detailing such costs, expenses and disbursements, reimburse the Agent for any such costs, expenses or disbursements for which the Agent is not promptly reimbursed at any time by the Borrower. The Agent may refrain from exercising any right, power or discretion or taking any action to protect or enforce the rights of any Secured Lender under the Loan Documents or any other Secured Document until it has been so reimbursed.

12.14

Reliance by Agent on Notices, etc.

The Agent shall be entitled:

(a)

Reliance on Written Documents: to rely upon any writing, letter, written notice, certificate, telex, facsimile copy, cable, e-mail, statement, order or other document believed by the Agent to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons; and

(b)

Reliance on Legal Advice: with respect to legal matters, to act upon advice of legal advisors selected by the Agent concerning all matters pertaining to the Loan Documents and any other Secured Document and the Agent's duties thereunder;

and the Agent shall assume no responsibility and shall incur no liability to the Borrower or any Secured Lender by reason of relying on any such document or acting on any such advice.

12.15

Relations with Borrower

Except for the transactions provided for in this Agreement, each Secured Lender may deal with the Borrower and any other Loan Party in all transactions and generally do any banking business with or provide any financial services to the Borrower and any other Loan Party without having any liability to account to the other Secured Lenders therefor. Where any Secured Lender is the Agent, with respect to its Commitment and Lender's Proportion, such Lender shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent.

12.16

Successor Agent

The Agent shall resign if at any time it is no longer a Lender hereunder by reason of an assignment of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents pursuant to Section 13.1 and, in such event, it shall provide thirty (30) days prior written notice of any such intended assignment to each of the Lenders and the Borrower. The Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to each of the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the remaining Lenders, or other Secured Lenders if there are then no Lenders (the "Remaining Lenders"), shall have the right to appoint a successor agent, subject to the approval of the Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Any successor agent appointed under this Section 12.16 shall be a Lender which has offices in Calgary, Alberta or Toronto, Ontario. If no successor agent shall have been appointed by the Remaining Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, or other Secured Lenders if there are then no Lenders, appoint a successor agent, subject to the approval of the Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor agent, such successor agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring agent as Agent, and the retiring agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement as Agent. After any retiring agent's resignation or removal hereunder as the Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect for its benefit and for the benefit of the Lenders, or other Secured Lenders if there are then no Lenders, in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the retiring agent while it was acting as the Agent.

- 125 -

12.17

Indemnity of Agent

Each Secured Lender hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) as to its Lender's Proportion of the Total Commitment from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or the other Secured Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in respect thereof; provided that the Secured Lenders shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Secured Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its Lender's Proportion of the Total Commitment of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preservation of any rights of the Agent or the Secured Lenders under, or the enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, the Loan Documents and other Secured Documents, but only to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower.

12.18

Sharing of Information

The Borrower authorizes the Agent and each other Secured Lender to share among each other and with any successor, assignee, or any potential assignee, any information possessed by it regarding a Loan Party or the Loan Documents or the other Secured Documents.

12.19

Amendment to this Article 12

Save and except for the provisions of Sections 12.16 and 12.17, the provisions of this Article 12 may be amended or added to, from time to time, without the agreement of the Borrower provided such amendment or addition does not adversely affect the rights of the Borrower hereunder or increase, in the aggregate, the liabilities of the Borrower hereunder. A copy of the instrument evidencing such amendment or addition shall be forwarded by the Agent to the Borrower as soon as practicable following the execution thereof; provided that after an Event of Default a failure to do so by the Agent shall not render it liable in damages to the Borrower.

- 126 -

12.20

The Agent and Defaulting Lenders

(a)

Cash Collateral: Each Defaulting Lender shall be required to provide to the Agent cash in an amount, as shall be determined from time to time by the Agent in its discretion, equal to all obligations of such Defaulting Lender to the Agent that are owing or may become owing pursuant to this Agreement, including such Defaulting Lender's obligation to pay its Lender's Proportion of any indemnification, reimbursement or expense reimbursement amounts not paid by the Borrower. Such cash shall be held by the Agent in one or more cash collateral accounts, which accounts shall be in the name of the Agent and shall not be required to be interest bearing. The Agent shall be entitled to apply the foregoing cash in accordance with Section 12.17, in the case of amounts owing to the Agent.

(b)

Indemnity: In addition to the indemnity and reimbursement obligations noted in Section 12.17, the Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligations of the Borrower hereunder) rateably according to their respective Lender's Proportion (and in calculating the Lender's Proportion of a Lender, ignoring the Commitments of Defaulting Lenders) any amount that a Defaulting Lender fails to pay the Agent and which is due and owing to the Agent pursuant to Section 12.17. Each Defaulting Lender agrees to indemnify each other Lender for any amounts paid by such Lender and which would otherwise be payable by the Defaulting Lender.

(c)

Set Off: The Agent shall be entitled to set off any Defaulting Lender's Lender's Proportion of all payments received from the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender's obligations to make payments and fund Accommodations required to be made by it and to purchase participations required to be purchased by it in each case under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. To the extent permitted by law, the Agent shall be entitled to withhold and deposit in one or more non-interest bearing cash collateral accounts in the name of the Agent all amounts (whether principal, interest, fees or otherwise) received by the Agent and due to a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Agreement, for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, which amounts shall be used by the Agent:

(i)

first, to reimburse the Agent for any amounts owing to it, in its capacity as Agent, by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to any Loan Document;

(ii)

second, to repay on a pro rata basis the incremental portion of any Accommodations made by a Lender pursuant to Section 11.9 in order to fund a shortfall created by a Defaulting Lender and, upon receipt of such repayment, each such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to the Defaulting Lender such incremental portion of such Accommodations;

(iii)

third, to cash collateralize all other obligations of such Defaulting Lender to the Agent owing pursuant to this Agreement in such amount as shall be determined from time to time by the Agent in its discretion, including such Defaulting Lender's obligation to pay its Lender's Proportion of any indemnification, reimbursement or expense reimbursement amounts not paid by the Borrower; and

(iv)

fourth, to fund from time to time the Defaulting Lender's Proportion of Secured Obligations.

- 127 -

(d)

No Liability: For greater certainty and in addition to the foregoing, neither the Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Secured Lender (including a Defaulting Lender) for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with amounts payable by the Borrower to a Defaulting Lender and received and deposited by the Agent in a cash collateral account and applied in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, save and except for the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Agent as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

12.21

Erroneous Payments by Agent

(a)

If the Agent notifies a Lender or other Secured Lender, or any person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or other Secured Lender under or pursuant to any of the Secured Documents (any such Lender, other Secured Lender or other recipient, a "Payment Recipient") that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding subsection (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted or paid to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, other Secured Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an "Erroneous Payment") and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, and such Lender or other Secured Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, 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 Agent in same day funds at the greater of (i) in respect of an Erroneous Payment in U.S. Dollars, the Federal Funds Rate, and in respect of an Erroneous Payment in Canadian Dollars or any other currency, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the overnight rate at which Canadian Dollars or funds in the currency of such Erroneous Payment, as the case may be, may be borrowed by the Agent in the interbank market in an amount comparable to such Erroneous Payment (as determined by the Agent) and (ii) a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or prevailing market practice for interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section 12.21(a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)

Without limiting Section 12.21(a), each Lender or other Secured Lender, or any person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or other Secured Lender under or pursuant to any of the Secured Documents, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or other Secured Lender, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, paid, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

- 128 -

(i)

(A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent express written confirmation from the Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)

such Lender or other Secured Lender shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Agent pursuant to this Section 12.21(b).

(c)

Each Lender or other Secured Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set-off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or other Secured Lender under any Secured Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Agent to such Lender or other Secured Lender from any source, against any amount due to the Agent under Section 12.21(a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d)

In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Agent in accordance with Section 12.21(a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an "Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency"), upon the Agent's notice to such Lender at any time, (a) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not any of its Commitments) under any of the applicable Credit Facilities with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the "Erroneous Payment Impacted Facilities") in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not any of its Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Facilities, the "Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment") at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver a Lender Transfer Agreement with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (b) the Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (c) upon such deemed acquisition, the Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and any of its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (d) the Agent may reflect in its records its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. Subject to Section 13.1(a), the Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and, upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender under the Credit Facilities and such Commitments under the Credit Facilities shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or other Secured Lender under the applicable Secured Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the "Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights").

- 129 -

(e)

The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Secured Obligations owed by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, 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 Agent from (a) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or (b) the proceeds of realization from the enforcement of one or more of the Secured Documents against or in respect of the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in each case, such funds were received by the Agent for the purpose of discharging such Secured Obligations.

(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 Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value", "good consideration" for the Erroneous Payment or change of position by such Payment Recipient, any defense that the intent of the Agent was that such Payment Recipient retain the Erroneous Payment in all events, or any doctrine or defense similar to any of the foregoing.

(g)

Each party's obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 12.21 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent, or any assignment or transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or an Affiliate thereof the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Secured Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Secured Document.

(h)

For purposes of this Section 12.21, each Lender:

(i)

agrees it is executing and delivering this Agreement with respect to this Section 12.21 both on its own behalf and as agent for and on behalf of its Affiliates referred to in this Section 12.21 and any person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Secured 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 12.21 and any person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Secured Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates are bound by the provisions of this Section 12.21; 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 Secured Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates which are the subject of this Section 12.21 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 12.21, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the limitations in Section 12.17.

- 130 -

(i)

Except pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment or the exercise of any Erroneous Payments Subrogation Rights (or any equivalent equitable subrogation rights), the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse (or have any other liability to) the Agent for any Erroneous Payment or any interest, loss, cost or damages related thereto or arising therefrom under any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or under any legal principle or theory, whether arising by law or in equity.

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, JUDGMENT CURRENCY AND
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

13.1

Successors and Assigns

(a)

Assignments: The Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a Lender may, at the Borrower's cost and expense, with the prior consent of the Agent and each Fronting Lender (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld) and upon payment to the Agent by the assigning Lender of U.S. $3,500 but without the Borrower's consent, assign in whole or in part their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to any assignee. If no Event of Default has occurred, a Lender may, at its sole cost and expense, with the prior consent of the Agent, the Borrower and each Fronting Lender (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and upon payment to the Agent by the assigning Lender of U.S. $3,500, assign in whole or in part their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a lending institution provided any increased cost arising solely as a result of the residency of such lending institution will be an obligation of such Lender. Assignments must be in a minimum amount of U.S. $5,000,000 and in increments of U.S. $1,000,000 thereafter except in the case of an assignment of a Lender's entire Commitment (provided that, in the case of the Operating Facility, such assignment must be in the minimum amount of the Operating Facility Commitment) and, if an assignment is not of a Lender's entire Commitment, such Lender must thereafter retain for its own account a minimum Commitment of U.S. $5,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing and without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent or the payment of the aforementioned U.S. $3,500, a Lender may, at any time, assign all or any part of its Commitment to another Lender, an affiliate of the assigning Lender or to an Approved Fund provided that any increased cost arising solely as a result of the residency of such affiliate or Approved Fund will be an obligation of such assigning Lender and provided that, in the case of an assignment to an Approved Fund, the assigning Lender remains responsible for, and is not released from, any and all funding obligations hereunder of such assigning Lender. Upon any assignment by a Lender to an assignee permitted by this Section 13.1(a) (a "Permitted Assignee") in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.1(a), such Lender shall cause such Permitted Assignee to be substituted for such Lender in respect of the whole or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents which are so assigned by the execution of a Lender Transfer Agreement and such Lender shall, as of the effective date thereof but subject to the provisions of the immediately prior sentence with respect to an assignment to an Approved Fund, be released from their obligations to the Borrower hereunder arising subsequent to such date to the extent thereof. Any such assignment prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing shall not increase, in aggregate, the liabilities of the Borrower hereunder including without limitation under Section 7.3.

- 131 -

(b)

Participations: The Borrower agrees that a Lender may, without the prior consent of the Agent and the Borrower, sell or agree to sell a participation (a "Participation") to a third party (a "Participant") in all or any part of any Borrowings made or Accommodations to be made by it; provided that upon the sale of any such Participation, the Participant purchasing such Participation shall not have any rights under any of the Loan Documents and the Borrower shall not have any obligations to such Participant, and all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined pursuant to this Agreement solely as between such Lender and the Borrower as if such Lender had not sold or agreed to sell such Participation and the assigning Lender and such Participant shall be solely responsible for any increased cost arising as a result of the residency of such Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing and without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent, a Lender may, at any time, sell a participation in all or any part of any Borrowings made or Accommodations to be made by it to an affiliate of the Lender; provided any increased cost arising solely as a result of the residency of such affiliate will be an obligation of such Lender.

(c)

Rights and Obligations of a Lender on a Participation: Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the sale by a Lender of a Participation to a Participant shall not affect the Lender's Proportion of such Lender nor otherwise alter the obligations of such Lender to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and such Lender shall continue to perform fully all of their obligations to the Borrower under this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, regardless of any failure to perform by any Participant or any other term, condition or event relating to any Participation. Any Participant's rights against such Lender and obligations in favour of such Lender in respect of such Participation shall be those set forth in any agreement executed by such Lender in favour of any such Participant relating thereto.

13.2

Judgment Currency

If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement it becomes necessary to convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (herein called the "Judgment Currency") any amount due hereunder in any currency other than the Judgment Currency, then such conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For such purpose, "rate of exchange" means the spot rate at which the Agent or the Operating Lender, as applicable, on the relevant date at or about noon (Toronto time), would be prepared to sell a similar amount of such currency in Toronto, Ontario against the Judgment Currency. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of payment of the amount due, the Borrower shall, on the date of payment, pay such additional amounts (if any) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment is the amount then due under this Agreement in such other currency. Any additional amount due from the Borrower under this Section 13.2 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sums due under or in respect of this Agreement.

- 132 -

13.3

Secured Lenders

If any Secured Lender (or its Affiliate, if such Secured Lender is not a Lender) for any reason ceases to be a Lender, such Secured Lender shall continue to be bound by and entitled to the benefit of the terms and conditions hereof in such capacity and entitled to the benefit of the Loan Party Guarantee and the Security until such time as it receives payment of all Secured Obligations owing to it by any Loan Party at the time it (or such Affiliate, if applicable) ceased to be a Lender, with the exception of any indemnities of, or in favour of, such Secured Lender hereunder existing at that time and which shall survive such termination, provided that for greater certainty, it shall not be entitled to the benefit of this Agreement, the Loan Party Guarantee or the Security in respect of any amounts advanced by it or transactions entered into after it ceased to be a Lender.

13.4

Exchange and Confidentiality of Information

Each of the Secured Lenders and the Agent acknowledge the confidential nature of the financial, operational and other information, reports and data provided and to be provided to them by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (the "Information") and agrees to hold the Information in confidence and shall not discuss or disclose or allow access to, or transfer or transmit the Information to any Person, provided however that:

(a)

each of the Secured Lenders and the Agent may disclose all or any part of the Information if, in its reasonable opinion, such disclosure is required by any Applicable Law, to the extent of such requirement, or is required in connection with any actual or threatened judicial, administrative or governmental proceeding, including, without limitation, proceedings initiated under or in respect of this Agreement, provided that in any such circumstance the Secured Lenders and Agent, as soon as reasonably practicable and unless prohibited by Applicable Law, shall advise the Borrower of their obligation to disclose such Information in order to enable the Borrower, if it so chooses, to attempt to ensure that any such disclosure is made on a confidential basis;

(b)

each of the Secured Lenders and the Agent may disclose all or any part of the Information to any regulatory body to which it is subject, to the extent such disclosure is, in the reasonable opinion of such Lender or Agent, required including without limitation to the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions or similar body;

(c)

each of the Secured Lenders and the Agent may disclose Information to each other and to any Permitted Assignees or participants or any actual or prospective counterparty to any securitization, swap or derivative transaction relating to the Loan Parties and the Borrowings and, in each case, to their respective counsel, agents, employees and advisors; provided that in the case of a participant or any counterparty, the participant or counterparty, as applicable, has provided the Agent or the applicable Lender, in the case of a participant, or the Borrower and the Agent, in the case of a counterparty, with the written agreement referred to in Section 13.4(d) and, in the case of any such counsel, agents, employees and advisors, the Agent or the applicable Lender shall advise such Person of the confidential nature of the Information;

(d)

each of the Lenders and the Agent may disclose and discuss the Information with credit officers of any potential Permitted Assignees for the purposes of assignment pursuant to Section 13.1 or any participant for the purposes of a participation or any actual or prospective counterparty for the purposes of any securitization, swap or derivative transaction as described in (c) above; provided that such potential Permitted Assignee or participant or counterparty shall have, for the benefit of the Borrower, previously provided to the Agent or such Lender, in the case of a participant, or the Borrower and the Agent, in the case of a counterparty, as the case may be, its written agreement to hold the Information under the same obligations of confidentiality as set forth in this Section 13.4 at all times prior to and, if applicable, after becoming a Permitted Assignee or participant or counterparty;

- 133 -

(e)

each of the Secured Lenders and the Agent may disclose all or any part of the Information so as to enable such Lender or the Agent to initiate any lawsuit against any Loan Party or to defend any lawsuit commenced by any Loan Party with respect to or arising from the Loan Documents or the other Secured Documents, the issues of which are directly or indirectly related to the Information, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary or desirable to the initiation or defense of such lawsuit; and

(f)

each of the Secured Lenders and the Agent may disclose Information to any Person with the prior written consent of the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Information" shall not include any such information:

(g)

which is or becomes readily available to the public (other than by a breach hereof or by a breach of an obligation of confidentiality imposed on a Permitted Assignee or participant or other Person referred to in this Section 13.4) or which has been made readily available to the public by a Loan Party;

(h)

which the Agent or any Secured Lender can show was, prior to receipt thereof from a Loan Party, lawfully in the Agent's or such Lender's possession and not then subject to any obligation on its part to or for the benefit of a Loan Party to maintain confidentiality; or

(i)

which the Agent or any Secured Lender received from a third party, prior to receipt thereof from a Loan Party, which was not, to the knowledge of the Agent or such Lender after due enquiry, subject to a duty of confidentiality to or for the benefit of a Loan Party at the time the Information was so received.

(i)

provide and cause its Subsidiaries to provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Secured Lender or the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Secured Lender), or any prospective assignee or participant of a Secured Lender or the Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML/KYC Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence; and

(ii)

notify the recipient of any such information of any changes thereto.

(b)

- 137 -

14.16

Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable 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

a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity 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

(iv)

the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

14.17

Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swaps or any other 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 Province of Alberta and the laws of Canada applicable therein or the laws of any other jurisdiction):

- 138 -

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.

14.18

No Fiduciary Duty

The Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this Section 14.18, the "Lenders"), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower, its shareholders and/or its Affiliates. The Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower, its shareholders or its Affiliates, on the other hand. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm's length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, and (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (i) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favour of the Borrower, its shareholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its shareholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (ii) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, shareholders, creditors or any other person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transactions or the process leading thereto.

14.19

Platform

(a)

The Borrower agrees that the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Communications (as defined below) available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the "Platform").

- 139 -

(b)

The Platform is provided "as is" and "as available." The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Agent or any of its Affiliates (collectively, the "Agent Parties") have any liability to the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, any Lender or any other person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower's, any Subsidiary's or the Agent's transmission of communications through the Platform. "Communications" means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material that the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof provides to the Agent pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section 14.19, including through the Platform.

(c)

I-1

whether any of the foregoing is voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and includes any such proceedings initiated or consented to by the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary; and

"Second Lien Obligations" means the Second Lien Debt and all other indebtedness, liabilities and obligations (present or future, absolute or contingent, matured or not) of the Borrower and the Material Subsidiaries to or in favour of the Second Lien Creditors under, pursuant or relating the Second Lien Financing Agreement and the other documents which create, evidence, establish or relate to Second Lien Debt.

Any Security Interest now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties (or any of them) shall be senior in right, priority, operation, effect and all other respects to any and all Security Interests now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of the Second Lien Creditors (or any of them).

Additional Security Interests:

(a) Until such time as the First Lien Obligations have been unconditionally and irrevocably repaid in full in cash and the commitments under the Credit Facilities have been terminated and cancelled, no Borrower or any Material Subsidiary shall grant or permit any additional Security Interests on any of its property, assets or undertaking to secure any Second Lien Obligations unless it has granted, or concurrently therewith grants, a senior Security Interest on such assets, property or undertaking to secure the First Lien Obligations.

(b)

Unless the First Lien Secured Parties have previously or are concurrently taking action to effect a registration of a fixed charge and the Second Lien Creditors are permitted to do so under the Second Lien Financing Agreement, the Second Lien Creditors shall not register any fixed charge against any assets of the Borrower or any of the Material Subsidiaries in respect of or as security for the Second Lien Obligations until 30 days after they have given to the First Lien Secured Parties written notice of their intention to register such fixed charge security.

In the event of any Insolvency Proceedings the First Lien Secured Parties shall first be entitled to receive from the proceeds of the Collateral indefeasible payment in full of the First Lien Obligations in cash or otherwise before the Second Lien Creditors shall be entitled to receive and retain any payment or distribution on account of the Second Lien Obligations or Second Lien Rights from proceeds of the Collateral.

A period of at least 180 days (the "Standstill Period") during which no Second Lien Creditor shall (the following in subparagraphs 4(a), (b), (c) and (b) below, inclusive, are collectively referred to as the "Restricted Rights"):

(a)

enforce or exercise, or seek to enforce or exercise or to have any agent or trustee thereof enforce or exercise any Security Interest granted under any security document over any property of the Borrower or a Material Subsidiary to secure the Second Lien Obligations or any other security or any rights or remedies relating to such Second Lien Obligations or any other such Security Interest or take any proceedings in connection therewith;

(b)

institute or commence, or join with any other person (other than the Agent) in instituting or commencing, any Insolvency Proceedings or take any steps or proceedings in connection therewith;

I-2

(c)

institute or commence any action or proceeding to enforce, collect or receive payment of any Second Lien Obligations or exercise any rights or remedies to enforce payment of any Second Lien Obligations, including any action of enforcement, realization, foreclosure, collection, seizure, garnishment or execution (in any case in respect of the Collateral and, for certainty, whether as a secured or unsecured creditor); or

(d)

in the event that any Second Lien Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of any Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Second Lien Debt, enforce or exercise, or seek to enforce or exercise, any such judgment lien,

and provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall any Second Lien Creditor be entitled to enforce or exercise any Restricted Rights with respect to the Collateral or against or in respect of the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary if, notwithstanding the expiration of the Standstill Period, the holders of the Secured Obligations: (i) shall have commenced and be diligently pursuing the exercise of their rights or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of the Collateral; or (ii) are stayed or otherwise precluded from pursuing such rights or remedies pursuant to applicable laws or Insolvency Proceedings (including pursuant to any order made in connection therewith).

Notwithstanding paragraph 4 above, the Second Lien Creditors may file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Loan Parties arising under any insolvency law or other applicable law, so long as no Restricted Rights are commenced or exercised, to the extent, but only to the extent, that the foregoing:

(a)

is in compliance with, is not inconsistent with and does not contravene, the other provisions of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement; and

(b)

is not adverse to, or does not adversely affect, the Security Interests securing the First Lien Obligations or the priority thereof.
