(f)For the purposes of this Section 2.1, where a notice is required to be delivered by the Borrower on a particular day but the deadline for delivery of such notice is not specified, such deadline shall be 12:00 pm (Toronto time).

2.2US Prime Rate Loans and SOFR Loans

(a)So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may from time to time request that the Lenders make US Prime Rate Loans or may request that SOFR Loans be converted to US Prime Rate Loans. Such request from Borrower shall be sent to the Administrative Agent and specify the amount of the US Prime Rate Loans or the amount of the SOFR Loans to be converted to US Prime Rate Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, one (1) Business Day after receipt by Administrative Agent of such request from Borrower such US Prime Rate Loan shall be made or such SOFR Loan shall be converted to US Prime Rate Loans.

Such request from Borrower shall be sent to the Administrative Agent and shall specify the amount of the SOFR Loans or the amount of the US Prime Rate Loans to be converted to SOFR Loans or the amount of the SOFR Loans to be continued (subject to the limits set forth below) and the Interest Period to be applicable to such SOFR Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, two (2) Business Days after receipt by Administrative Agent of such a request from Borrower, such SOFR Loans shall be made or US Prime Rate Loans shall be converted to SOFR Loans or such SOFR Loans shall continue, as applicable, provided, that, (i) no Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing; (ii) Administrative Agent shall not have sent any Notice of Termination of this Agreement; (iii) Borrower shall have complied with such customary procedures as are generally established by Lenders for all customers and specified by Administrative Agent to the Borrower from time to time for requests by the Borrower for SOFR Loans; (iv) no more than twenty (20) Interest Periods (for all outstanding CORRA Borrowings and SOFR Loans) may be in effect at any one time; (v) the aggregate amount of the SOFR Loans must be in an amount not less than One Million US Dollars (US $1,000,000.00) or an integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand US Dollars (US $100,000.00) in excess thereof; and (vi) the Administrative Agent shall have determined that the Interest Period or Adjusted Term SOFR can be readily determined as of the date of the request for such SOFR Loan by the Borrower and such Interest Period does not extend beyond the Maturity Date. Any request by the Borrower for SOFR Loans or to convert US Prime Rate Loans to SOFR Loans or to continue any existing SOFR Loans shall be irrevocable.

(c)Any SOFR Loans shall automatically convert to US Prime Rate Loans upon the last day of the applicable Interest Period unless applicable Lender has received and approved a request to continue such SOFR Loan two (2) Business Day prior to such last day of such SOFR Loan in accordance with the terms hereof. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any SOFR Loans shall, at Lender’s option, upon notice by such Lender to the Borrower, be subsequently converted to US Prime Rate Loans. In the event that this Agreement shall terminate or not be renewed, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender upon demand by such Lender (or any Lender may, at its option, charge any loan account of the Borrower) any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any loss, costs or expenses incurred by such Lender, as a result of the conversion of SOFR Loans to US Prime Rate Loans pursuant to any of the foregoing. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing, or if Borrower repays or prepays a SOFR Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender for any loss or expense suffered or incurred by such Lender including, without limitation, any loss of profit or expenses such Lender incurs by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by it to effect or maintain any and all SOFR Loans, or any interest or other charges payable to lenders of funds borrowed by such Lender in order to maintain such SOFR Loans, together with any other charges, costs or expenses incurred by such Lender relative thereto, unless any such loss or expense was the result of the wilful misconduct or gross negligence of such Lender.

2.3Canadian Prime Rate Loans and CORRA Borrowings

(a)So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower may from time to time request that Lenders make Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Such request from Borrower shall be sent to the Administrative Agent and specify the amount of the Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, one (1) Business Day after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such request from Borrower such Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall be made.

(b)So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may from time to time request that the Lenders make Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans. Such request from the Borrower shall be sent to the Administrative Agent and specify the amount of the Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, in the case of Term CORRA Loans, two (2) Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such request from the Borrower and in the case of Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such request from the Borrower, such Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, shall be made. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Term CORRA Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration.

(c)Any Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan shall automatically convert to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, upon the last day of the applicable Interest Period unless applicable Lender has received and approved a request to continue such Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan two (2) Business Days prior to such last day of such Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan in accordance with the terms hereof. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan shall, at Lender’s option, upon notice by such Lender to the Borrower, be subsequently converted to Canadian Prime Rate Loans. In the event that this Agreement shall terminate or not be renewed, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender upon demand by such Lender (or any Lender may, at its option, charge any loan account of the Borrower) any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any loss, costs or expenses incurred by such Lender, as a result of the conversion of Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans to Canadian Prime Rate Loans pursuant to any of the foregoing. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing, or if the Borrower repays or prepays a Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender for any loss or expense suffered or incurred by such Lender including, without limitation, any loss of profit or expenses such Lender incurs by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by it to effect or maintain any and all Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, or any interest or other charges payable to lenders of funds borrowed by such Lender in order to maintain such Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, together with any other charges, costs or expenses incurred by such Lender relative thereto, unless any such loss or expense was the result of the wilful misconduct or gross negligence of such Lender.

(d)The Borrower may obtain advances under the Swingline Facility pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) by delivering a notice to Administrative Agent requesting a drawdown under the Swingline Facility prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date such extension of credit is requested. Upon receipt of such notice Administrative Agent shall notify the Swingline Lender of the amount and currency of such requested extension of credit. Any such extension of credit denominated in Canadian Dollars shall constitute a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable. Any such extension of credit denominated in US Dollars shall constitute a US Prime Rate Loan or Daily Simple SOFR Loan, as applicable. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement the Swingline Lender shall, not later than 4:00 pm (Toronto time) on the date of such requested extension of credit advance the amount requested to the account designated by the Borrower in its request to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.5(d).

(e)Absent the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower may also obtain advances in an aggregate total outstanding amount of up to Cdn.$10,000,000 under the Swingline Facility by way of overdraft on its accounts maintained with the Swingline Lender. Any debit balance created by way of overdraft in its US Dollar accounts with the Swingline Lender shall constitute a US Prime Rate Loan or a Daily Simple SOFR Loan, as applicable. Any debit balance created by way of overdraft in its Canadian Dollar accounts with the Swingline Lender shall constitute a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or a Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable. The Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, make funds available from time to time until the Maturity Date by way of overdrafts in its accounts pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) in an aggregate total outstanding amount not to exceed Cdn.$10,000,000 at any time. Upon the existence and continuance of a Trigger Event, the Borrower’s right to obtain advances hereunder by way of overdraft may be reduced or suspended, at Administrative Agent’s sole discretion.

(f)Swingline Loans made pursuant to Section 2.5(d) shall be repaid on a weekly basis by Administrative Agent requesting an advance from the Lenders in the same amount which shall constitute a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, US Prime Rate Loan or a Daily Simple SOFR Loan, as the case may be. Swingline Loans made pursuant to Section 2.5(f) shall be repaid on request by Swingline Lender made to Administrative Agent who in turn will request an advance from the Lenders in the same amount which shall constitute a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, US Prime Rate Loan or Daily Simple SOFR Loan, as the case may be.

(g)Each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) agrees to indemnify the Swingline Lender (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) rateably according to its Pro Rata Share from and against any and all losses and claims of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Swingline Lender in any way relating to or arising out of any Swingline Loan made under this Section 2.3, provided that no such Lender shall be liable for any portion of such losses or claims resulting from the Swingline Lender’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

(h)The Swingline Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each of the Lenders (other than the Swingline Lender), and to induce the Swingline Lender to make Swingline Loans available hereunder, each of the Lenders (other than the Swingline Lender) irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Swingline Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for each such Lender’s own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each Swingline Loan made by the Swingline Lender under this Agreement. Each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Swingline Lender that, if any Swingline Loan is not repaid in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Lender shall pay to the Swingline Lender, through Administrative Agent, upon demand an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of such Swingline Loan or any portion thereof which is not so repaid by the Borrower.

(i)The Borrower shall be entitled at any time and from time to time to pay or prepay any Swingline Loan in whole or in part without premium, penalty or notice.

2.6Lenders’ Commitments

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the relevant Lenders severally agree to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder from time to time provided that the aggregate amount of credit extended by each relevant Lender hereunder shall not at any time exceed the individual Commitment of such Lender. Nothing contained herein or in the other Financing Agreements shall constitute the Lenders as a partnership, and any indication thereof is hereby expressly denied. All credit requested hereunder other than under the Swingline Facility, shall be made available to the Borrower contemporaneously by all of the relevant Lenders. Each Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent for the Borrower its Pro Rata Share of each credit. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to provide its Pro Rata Share of any credit under any Loan nor shall the individual Commitment of any Lender with respect to a particular Loan be increased as a result of any such default of another Lender in extending credit under such Loan. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Borrower its Pro Rata Share of any credit under any Loan shall not relieve any other relevant Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Borrower its Pro Rata Share of such credit under such Loan.

2.7Funding of Loans

(a)The Borrower may obtain credit hereunder by way of an extension of credit by delivering an irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto (the “Borrowing Request”).

(b)Each relevant Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of each Revolving Loan prior to 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date of the extension of credit, being the date for an extension of credit requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Borrowing Request from Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent, subject to the notice requirements contained hereunder (the “Advance Date”). The Administrative Agent shall, upon fulfilment by the Borrower of the applicable terms and conditions set forth in Section 6, make such funds available to the Borrower on the Advance Date by transfer to the credit of the Borrower’s designated account. Unless the Administrative Agent has been notified by a Lender at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Advance Date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion of the Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent on the Advance Date in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent has made such assumption, to the extent such Lender shall not have so made its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith together with interest thereon at the Canadian Prime Rate for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding such obligation, if such Lender fails so to pay, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any rights that the Borrower might have against such Lender, repay such amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent. The amount payable by each Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto shall be set forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to such Lender and the Borrower (which certificate shall contain reasonable details of how the amount payable is calculated) and shall constitute prima facie evidence of such amount payable. If such Lender makes the payment to the Administrative Agent required herein, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan for purposes of this Agreement and shall entitle the Lender to all rights and remedies against Borrower in respect of such Revolving Loan.

2.8Rollovers

(a)CORRA Borrowings. Subject to the terms and condition hereof and provided that the Borrower has, by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent, requested with respect to any Term CORRA Borrowing or Daily Compounded CORRA Borrowing, the continuation of all or a portion of such Borrowing (subject to the terms and conditions hereof) for an additional Interest Period subsequent to the initial or any subsequent Interest Period applicable thereto.

(b)SOFR Loans. Subject to the terms and condition hereof and provided that the Borrower has requested the Lenders to continue to extend credit by way of SOFR Loans to replace all or a portion of an outstanding SOFR Loan as it matures, the Lenders shall, on the maturity of such SOFR Loan, continue to extend credit to the Borrower by way of a SOFR Loan (without a further advance of funds to the Borrower) in the principal amount equal to the principal amount of the matured SOFR Loan.

(c)Rollover Notice. The notice to be given to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.8(a) and 2.8(b) shall be irrevocable and shall specify:

(i)the maturity date of the maturing Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan or maturing SOFR Loan, as the case may be;

(ii)the principal amount of the maturing Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan or SOFR Loan, as the case may be, and the portion thereof to be replaced; and

(iii)in the case of a maturing Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan or SOFR Loan, the Interest Period or Interest Periods of the replacement Term CORRA Loan, Daily Compounded CORRA Loan or SOFR Loan, as applicable.

2.9Conversions

(a)Subject to Section 2.7 and provided that the Borrower has, by giving notice to the Administrative Agent, requested the Lenders to convert all or a portion of an outstanding Loan of a particular type into another type of Loan, the Lenders shall, on the date of conversion, continue to extend credit to the Borrower by way of the type of Loan into which the outstanding Loan or a portion thereof is converted (without the same constituting a further advance of funds to the Borrower) in the aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the outstanding Loan or the portion thereof which is being converted; provided that in respect of conversions of a Loan or any portion thereof denominated in one currency to a Loan or any portion thereof denominated in another currency, the Borrower shall at the time of such conversion repay the Loan or portion thereof being converted in the currency in which it was denominated.

(b)To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.9, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by delivering a written notice by the time that a request would be required under Sections 2.2 and 2.3 if the Borrower was requesting a Loan of the type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each request for a conversion shall be irrevocable.

(c)Each request for a conversion shall specify the following information in compliance with Sections 2.2 and 2.3:

(i)whether an outstanding Loan is to be converted and, if an outstanding Loan is to be converted, the type of Loan to be converted;

(ii)the principal amount of the Loan or the portion thereof which is to be converted;

(iii)the effective date of the election made pursuant to such request for a conversion, which shall be a Business Day;

(iv)whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a SOFR Loan, US Prime Rate Loan, Canadian Prime Rate Loan, a Term CORRA Borrowing or a Daily Compounded CORRA Borrowing; and

(v)if the resulting Borrowing is to be a SOFR Loan, Term CORRA Borrowing, or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

(vi)If any such request for a conversion requests a Term CORRA Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) months’ duration.

(d)Promptly following receipt of a request for a conversion in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Loan.

(e)If the Borrower specifies in the request for a conversion an effective date for an election made pursuant to such request for a conversion that is a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Lenders breakage fees in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f)In the event of any conversion of any SOFR Loan, Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion, together with any breakage fees payable pursuant to this Agreement.

2.10Failure of Lenders to Fund Loan

If any relevant Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan under any credit facility as required (such Lender being herein called the “Defaulting Lender”) and the Administrative Agent has not funded pursuant to Section 2.7, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such failure by the Defaulting Lender to the Borrower and the other relevant Lenders and such notice shall request each relevant Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Loan in the place and stead of the Defaulting Lender. Each such relevant Lender (herein collectively called the “Contributing Lenders” and individually called the “Contributing Lender”) shall, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent, make available its Pro Rata Share of such advance based on the Contributing Lenders’ relative Commitments; provided that no Lender shall be obliged to make any such advance to the extent its Pro Rata Share of outstanding Revolving Loans would exceed its Commitment. If any Contributing Lender makes funds available in the place and stead of a Defaulting Lender in such circumstances, then the Defaulting Lender shall pay to any Contributing Lender making the funds available in its place and stead, forthwith on demand, any amount advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at the Canadian Prime Rate for each day from the date of advance to the date of payment, against payment by the Contributing Lender making the funds available of all interest received in respect of the Loan from Borrower. In addition to interest as aforesaid, the Borrower shall pay all amounts owing by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender hereunder (with respect to the amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Defaulting Lender) to the Contributing Lenders until such time as the Defaulting Lender pays to the Administrative Agent for the Contributing Lenders all amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Defaulting Lender. A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to its Pro Rata Share of fees hereunder during such period as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

2.11Swaps

Any Lender and its Affiliates may, in their sole discretion, from time to time at Borrower’s request, enter into any Swaps with an Operating Company from time to time on terms and conditions to be negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis. No Lender nor any Affiliate thereof makes any commitment to enter into or arrange any Swaps with Borrower and may at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, decline to enter into any Swap and the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, acting reasonably and to the extent notified to the Borrower, reserve any “credit exposure”, as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion, under the Availability Reserves, such reserve amount not to exceed the Ancillary Facilities Notice Amount in respect of such Swap. In addition to any security provided for therein, any Swap entered into by a Lender with Borrower shall be secured by the security granted under the Financing Agreements. Any rights of Lenders herein are in addition to and not in limitation of or substitution for any rights of Lenders under any agreement governing any Swap. In the event that there is any inconsistency at any time between the terms of this Agreement and any agreement governing any Swap, the terms of the agreement governing such Swap shall prevail. For greater certainty, nothing shall prohibit an Operating Company from entering into Swaps with Persons who are not Lenders or Affiliates thereof.

2.12Ancillary Facilities

Any Lender and its Affiliates may, in their sole discretion, from time to time at Borrower’s request, enter into any Ancillary Facilities with Borrower from time to time on terms and conditions to be negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis. The Lenders and their Affiliates make no commitment to enter into or arrange any Ancillary Facilities with Borrower and may at any time, in their sole and absolute discretion, decline to enter into any Ancillary Facilities. In addition to any security provided for in connection with such Ancillary Facilities (as may be permitted pursuant to this Agreement), any Ancillary Facilities entered into by a Lender or its Affiliate with Borrower shall be secured by the Security granted under this Agreement. Any rights of the Lenders herein are in addition to and not in limitation of or substitution for any rights of the Lenders under any agreement governing any Ancillary Facility.

2.13Availability Reserves

All Revolving Loans available to the Borrower subject to the Revolving Loans Borrowing Base and the Maximum Revolver Credit shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s continuing right, with the consent of Required Lenders, to establish and revise Availability Reserves to the extent permitted elsewhere in this Agreement.

2.14Accordion Feature

(a)Increases in Maximum Revolver Credit. Subject to satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth below, the Borrower may from time to time increase the total amount of the Maximum Revolver Credit by notice to the Administrative Agent (the “Accordion Notice”) specifying the amount of the increase and the desired effective date of the increase (provided that the date that the increase actually takes effect shall be deemed to be the “Accordion Effective Date”), and either designating a bank or other regulated financial institution that is not a Lender at the time to become a Lender or designating an existing Lender that has agreed to increase such Lender’s Commitment; provided that:

(i)such designation shall only be effective with the prior written consent of each of the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld;

(ii)each of the representations and warranties deemed to be repeated under Section 9.1 is true and correct in all material respects as of the Accordion Effective Date as though made on and as of such date;

(iii)no Event of Default has occurred that is continuing on the Accordion Effective Date, nor would any Event of Default result after giving effect to the requested increase;

(iv)the total amount of such increase in the Maximum Revolver Credit shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and when added to all other increases in the Maximum Revolver Credit previously made pursuant to this Section 2.14, does not exceed $70,000,000;

(v)the Borrower and the designated Accordion Lender, if not already a Lender, shall have duly completed, executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent an Accordion Agreement, together with such corporate and banking supporting documentation and other information relative thereto as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require, before the Accordion Effective Date;

(vi)any designated Accordion Lender that is already a Lender shall have confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent its Commitment or increased Revolving Loan Commitment before the Accordion Effective Date; and

(vii)any new Accordion Lender which is not already a Lender must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably.

(b)Saving. No Lender shall be obligated in any way to increase its Commitment.

(c)Notice and Effective Date of Increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each Accordion Notice received by it from the Borrower. Upon satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) to (vii) of paragraph (a) above (and a certificate of the Borrower confirming the same shall be conclusive for this purpose absent actual knowledge of the Administrative Agent to the contrary), the requested increase in the Maximum Revolver Credit shall take effect and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender as soon as practicable of each increase in Maximum Revolver Credit arising pursuant to this Section 2.14, together with an updated list of Lenders’ Commitments giving effect to such increase.

SECTION 3 - INTEREST AND FEES

3.1Interest

(a)Borrower shall pay to Lenders interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans at the applicable Interest Rate.

(b)Interest shall be payable by Borrower to Lenders: (i) in the case of Canadian Prime Rate Loans or US Prime Rate Loans, monthly in arrears not later than the first (1st) Business Day of each calendar month, (ii) in the case of CORRA Borrowings (except Daily Compounded CORRA Loans under the Swingline Facility) or SOFR Loans, on the last day of the applicable Interest Period and (iii) in the case of Daily Compounded CORRA Loans under the Swingline Facility and Daily Simple SOFR Loans, monthly in arrears not later than the first (1st) Business Day of each calendar month; provided that, in the case of Interest Periods of a duration longer than three (3) months, accrued interest shall be paid no less frequently than every three (3) months from the first day of such Interest Period during the term of such Interest Period and on the date on which such Loans are otherwise required to be repaid. With respect to each SOFR Loan, Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, the Borrower shall specify the duration of the Interest Period.

(c)Interest hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty five (365) day year in the case of Canadian Prime Rate Loans and CORRA Borrowings and three hundred and sixty (360) day year in the case of US Prime Rate Loans, SOFR Loans and Daily Simple SOFR Loans and actual days elapsed or to elapse (as the case may be).

(d)The interest rate on Canadian Prime Rate Loans and US Prime Rate Loans shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Canadian Prime Rate or US Prime Rate, as applicable, effective immediately after any change in Canadian Prime Rate or US Prime Rate, as applicable, is announced.

(e)All interest accruing hereunder on and after an Event of Default that is continuing or termination or non-renewal hereof shall be payable on demand.

(f)In no event shall charges constituting interest payable by Borrower to Lenders exceed the maximum amount or the rate permitted under any Applicable Law, and if any part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such Applicable Law, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto.

(g)For the purposes hereof, whenever interest is calculated on the basis of a period other than a calendar year (the “Relevant Period”), each rate of interest determined pursuant to such calculation expressed as an annual rate for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) is equivalent to such rate as so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by the number of days in the Relevant Period. The Obligors hereby acknowledge and confirm that they understand the conversion formulas and how to calculate any annual rate of interest contemplated in this Agreement. The Administrative Agent agrees that promptly upon request by the Obligors from time to time it will advise the Obligors of the applicable interest rate in effect at such time (or during any other period prior to such time), and will assist the Obligors in calculating the effective annual rate of interest required to be disclosed pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada), as applicable. The Obligors acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the information provided to them hereunder with respect to the calculation of interest hereunder or under any Financing Agreement shall constitute an express statement of the yearly rate or percentage of interest to which such interest rate or percentage is equivalent. The Obligors hereby irrevocably agree not to plead or assert, whether by way of defense or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement or any Financing Agreement, that the interest payable under this Agreement or any Financing Agreement and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to the Obligors, whether pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other applicable law.

(h)If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Financing Agreements would obligate Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to Lenders in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by Lenders of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by Lenders of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to Lenders under this Section, and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to Lenders which constitute “interest” for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if Lenders shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that Section of the Criminal Code (Canada), Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to Lenders, to promptly obtain reimbursement from Lenders in an amount equal to such excess and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by Lenders to Borrower. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that the applicable Loan remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro-rated over the period from the date hereof to the date of termination or non-renewal of this Agreement and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Administrative Agent shall be presumptive evidence for the purposes of such determination.

(i)A certificate of an authorized signing officer of Lenders as to each amount and/or each rate of interest payable hereunder from time to time shall be conclusive evidence of such amount and of such rate, absent manifest error.

(j)For greater certainty, whenever any amount is payable under this Agreement or any Financing Agreement by Borrower as interest or as a fee which requires the calculation of an amount using a percentage per annum, each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that such amount shall be calculated as of the date payment is due without application of the “deemed reinvestment principle” or the “effective yield method”.

(k)THE BORROWER CONFIRMS THAT IT FULLY UNDERSTANDS AND IS ABLE TO CALCULATE THE RATE OF INTEREST APPLICABLE TO EACH OF THE FACILITIES BASED ON THE METHODOLOGY FOR CALCULATING PER ANNUM RATES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS SECTION 3.1. Lenders agree that if requested in writing by Borrower it shall calculate the nominal and effective per annum rate of interest on any Loan outstanding at any time and provide such information to Borrower promptly following such request; provided that any error in any such calculation, or any failure to provide such information on request, shall not relieve Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, nor result in any liability to Lenders. BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR ASSERT, WHETHER BY WAY OF DEFENCE OR OTHERWISE, IN ANY PROCEEDING RELATING TO THE FINANCING AGREEMENTS, THAT THE INTEREST PAYABLE UNDER THE FINANCING AGREEMENTS AND THE CALCULATION THEREOF HAS NOT BEEN ADEQUATELY DISCLOSED TO BORROWER, WHETHER PURSUANT TO SECTION 4 OF THE INTEREST ACT (CANADA) OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAW OR LEGAL PRINCIPLE.

3.2Closing Fee

Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders a closing fee in the amount of $384,000 which fee shall be fully earned as of and payable on the date of this Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement.

3.3Unused Line Fee

Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders monthly an unused line fee at the applicable percentage rate specified in the pricing grid for the Interest Rate (as set out in the definition for Interest Rate in Exhibit “A” of this Agreement) multiplied by the amount by which the Maximum Revolver Credit exceeds the Canadian Dollar Amount of the average daily principal balance of the outstanding Revolving Loans during the immediately preceding month (or part thereof) while this Agreement is in effect and for so long thereafter as any of the Obligations are outstanding multiplied by the fraction of the number of days elapsing in such immediately preceding month (or part thereof) divided by the number of days in the calendar year commencing on the first day of that immediately preceding calendar month, which fee shall be payable on the first Business Day of each month in arrears.

3.4Payments

Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the Borrower shall make all payments pursuant to this Agreement or pursuant to any document, instrument or agreement delivered pursuant hereto by deposit to the designated Payment Account before 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the day specified for payment and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withdraw the amount of any payment due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder from such accounts on the day specified for payment. Any such payment received on the day specified for such payment but after 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) shall be deemed to have been received prior to 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the next following Business Day.

Unless otherwise specified by Lenders, all interest, fees and other payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be in the currency in which such Obligations are denominated.

SECTION 4 - TERM OF AGREEMENT

4.1Term

(a)This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements shall become effective as of the date set forth on the first page hereof and shall continue in full force and effect until the Maturity Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to a Notice of Termination.

(b)Upon the effective date of termination of the Financing Agreements, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, in full, all outstanding and unpaid Obligations and shall furnish cash collateral to the Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders in such amounts as Lenders determine are necessary to secure Lenders from loss, cost, damage or expense, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, in connection with any contingent Obligations, including cheques or other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and/or as to which Lenders have not yet received final and indefeasible payment. Such payments in respect of the Obligations and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in Canadian Dollars to the Payment Account. Interest shall be due until and including the next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by the Borrower to the Payment Account are received in such bank account later than 2:00 p.m., Toronto time.

(c)No termination of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall relieve or discharge Borrower of its respective duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements until all outstanding Obligations then due and owing have been fully and finally discharged and paid and cash collateral required under Section 4.1(b) for contingent Obligations has been provided, and Lenders’ continuing security interest in the Collateral and the rights and remedies of Lenders hereunder, under the other Financing Agreements and Applicable Law, shall remain in effect until all such Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid and cash collateral has been so provided.

SECTION 5 - RESERVE, CAPITAL, INDEMNITY, TAX AND RELATED PROVISIONS

5.1Increased Costs

(a)Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or any banking or financial institution from whom any Lender borrows funds or obtains credit (a “Funding Bank”);

(ii)subject any Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof, except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 5.2 and the imposition, or any change in the rate, of any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender; or

(iii)impose on any Lender or any applicable interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase materially the cost to such Lender or a Funding Bank of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase materially the cost to such Lender or a Funding Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any letter of credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any letter of credit), or to reduce materially the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or a Funding Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender and/or Funding Bank for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, or a Funding Bank, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of materially reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, or a Funding Bank, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or the letters of credit issued or participated in by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or its holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of its holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts, and delivered to the Borrower shall be prima facie evidence thereof, absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount payable under this Section 5.1 within 10 Business Days after receipt of such certificate and request for payment thereof.

(d)Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, except that notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.1(a) to (c) to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 5.1 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, in which case the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

5.2Taxes

(a)Payments Subject to Taxes. If any Obligor, the Administrative Agent, or any Lender is required by Applicable Law to deduct or pay any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) in respect of any payment by or on account of any obligation of an Obligor hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased by that Obligor when payable as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and payments (including deductions and payments applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or 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, (ii) the Obligor shall make any such deductions required to be made by it under Applicable Law and (iii) the Obligor shall timely pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b)Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay, or cause to be paid, any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(c)Indemnification by Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and pay within 15 Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be prima facie evidence thereof.

(d)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by an Obligor to a Governmental Authority, the Obligor shall deliver to the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent.

(e)Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, (a) any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements, and (b) any Lender that ceases to be, or to be deemed to be, resident in Canada for purposes of Part XIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or any successor provision thereto shall within five days thereof notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing.

(f)Treatment of Certain Refunds and Tax Reductions. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which an Obligor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section or that, because of the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes, it has benefited from a reduction in Excluded Taxes otherwise payable by it, it shall pay to the Borrower or Obligor, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund or reduction (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or Obligor under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or reduction), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any net after-tax interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Borrower or Obligor as applicable, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or Obligor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender if the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund or reduction to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person, to arrange its affairs in any particular manner or to claim any available refund or reduction.

(g)Accounting. Upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, shall provide a detailed computation of any Taxes or Other Taxes it requests compensation for under this Section 5.2.

5.3Mitigation Obligations: Replacement of Lenders

(a)Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.1, or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.2, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense which Borrower is not prepared to compensate such Lender for and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.1, if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.2, if any Lender’s obligations are suspended pursuant to Section 5.4 or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon 15 days’ notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 14.3), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Financing Agreements to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i)Borrower pays the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 14.3(b)(vii) if such assignment is made to someone that is not already a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender;

(ii)the assigning Lender receives payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts then due or accrued and payable to it hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements (including any breakage costs and amounts required to be paid under this Agreement as a result of prepayment to a Lender) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.1 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.2, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv)such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law.

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

(c)Defaulting Lender. Replacement of a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall in no way prejudice Borrower’s rights against any Defaulting Lender.

5.4Illegality

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 or maintain any Loan (or to maintain its obligation to make any Loan), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any particular rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender with respect to the activity that is unlawful shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if conversion would avoid the activity that is unlawful, convert any Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

5.5Indemnity for Transactional and Environmental Liability

(a)The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, exonerate and hold the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Lender and each of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs (including, without limitation, all documentary, recording, filing, mortgage or other stamp taxes or duties), charges, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether such Indemnified Party is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and out of pocket disbursements and amounts paid in settlement of any and every kind whatsoever when such amounts paid in settlement have been approved by the Borrower, acting reasonably (collectively, in this Section 5.5(a), the “Indemnified Liabilities”), paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any credit extended hereunder, (ii) any actual or threatened investigation, litigation or other proceeding relating to any credit extended or proposed to be extended as contemplated herein or (iii) the occurrence of any Event of Default, except for any such Indemnified Liabilities which a court of competent jurisdiction determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order arose on account of the relevant Indemnified Party’s breach of any Financing Agreement, gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.5(a) shall entitle the Indemnified Parties to recover Indemnified Liabilities that are intended to be compensated for pursuant to Section 4.1(b) hereof.

(b)Without limiting the generality of the indemnity set out in Section 5.5(a), the Borrower hereby further agrees to indemnify, exonerate and hold the Indemnified Parties free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and out of pocket disbursements, and amounts paid in settlement of any and every kind whatsoever when such amounts paid in settlement have been approved by the Borrower (collectively, in this Section 5.5(b), the “Indemnified Liabilities”), paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties or any of them for, with respect to, or as a direct or indirect result of, (i) the presence on or under, or the escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission or release from, any real property legally or beneficially owned (or any estate or interest which is owned), leased, used or operated by the Borrower of any Hazardous Material or (ii) the breach or violation of any Environmental Law by the Borrower regardless of whether caused by, or within the control of, the Borrower, except for any such Indemnified Liabilities which a court of competent jurisdiction determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order arose on account of the relevant Indemnified Party’s breach of any Financing Agreement, gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

(c)All obligations provided for in this Section 5.5 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination and non-renewal of this Agreement and shall not be reduced or impaired by any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or Lenders.

(d)The Borrower hereby agrees that, for the purposes of effectively allocating the risk of loss placed on Borrower by this Section 5.5, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be deemed to be acting as the agent or trustee on behalf of and for the benefit of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents.

(e)If, for any reason, the obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be unenforceable, the Borrower agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each obligation that is permissible under Applicable Law, except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines such obligations arose on account of the breach of any Financing Agreement or the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of any Indemnified Party.

(f)To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under this Section 5.5 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable un-reimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of Lenders under this paragraph are subject to the other provisions of this Agreement concerning several liabilities of Lenders.

(g)To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Party, on any theory of liability, for indirect, consequential, punitive, aggravated or exemplary damages (as opposed to direct damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Financing Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby (or any breach thereof), the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. Except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

5.6Right of Setoff

(a)If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each of Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender has made any demand under this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement and although such obligations of the Obligor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each of Lenders and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff, consolidation of accounts and bankers’ lien) that Lenders or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. If any Affiliate of a Lender exercises any rights under this Section 5.6, it shall share the benefit received in accordance with Section 5.7 as if the benefit had been received by Lender of which it is an Affiliate.

5.7Sharing of Payments by Lenders

(a)If any Lender, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtains any payment or other reduction that might result in such Lender receiving payment or other reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other obligations hereunder greater than its Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then Lender receiving such payment or other reduction shall promptly (x) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (y) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by Lenders rateably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i)if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii)the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Obligor pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Obligor or any Affiliate of an Obligor (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply); and

(b)the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (w) any payment made while no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of obligations of the Borrower to such Lender that do not arise under or in connection with the Financing Agreements, (x) any payment made in respect of an obligation that is secured by a Permitted Lien (other than liens in favour of the Administrative Agent or any Lender) or that is otherwise entitled to priority over Borrower’s Obligations under or in connection with the Financing Agreements, (y) any reduction arising from an amount owing to an Obligor upon the termination of derivatives entered into between the Obligor and such Lender, or (z) any payment to which such Lender is entitled as a result of any form of credit protection obtained by such Lender.

The Obligors consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Obligor rights of setoff and counterclaim and similar rights of Lenders with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Obligor in the amount of such participation.

5.8Administrative Agent’s Clawback

(a)Funding by Lenders; Presumption by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any advance of funds that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement concerning funding by Lenders and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable advance available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such advance. If such Lender does not do so forthwith, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon at the interest rate applicable to the advance in question. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that has failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(b)Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute the amount due to Lenders. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation.

5.9Market Disruption and Benchmark Replacement

(a)Inability to determine rates. If the Required Lenders determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) at any time that:

(i)Term SOFR cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof; or

(ii)Term SOFR does not adequately reflect the Lender's cost of funding a SOFR Loan for an Interest Period selected by the Borrower; then

(b)The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of such determination. From and after delivery of such notice by the Administrative Agent, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain SOFR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such time as the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) determines in good faith that the circumstances giving rise to such situation no longer exist and revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, a Borrower may revoke any pending request for an advance, conversion or rollover of SOFR Loans or, failing that, such request and any further request for a drawdown, conversion or rollover, requesting a SOFR Loan shall be deemed to be a drawdown or conversion, as applicable, requesting a US Prime Rate Loan in the same aggregate principal amount. Upon such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required under any indemnity obligation arising pursuant to Sections 5.1, 5.4 or 5.6 hereof.

(c)Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(i)Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Financing Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date the Administrative Agent has provided such proposed amendment to the Lenders and the Borrower, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this 5.8(b) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

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

(iii)Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of (i) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark; and (ii) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this 5.9(b), 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 Financing Agreement, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.

(iv)Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Financing Agreement, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement):

(A)if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR 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 Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of this Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time, to remove such unavailable, non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned tenor, and

(B)if a tenor that was removed pursuant to 5.9(b)(iv)(A) 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 or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time, to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(v)Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a SOFR Loan, conversion to or rollover of a SOFR Loan to be made, converted or rolled over during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for, or a conversion to, a US Prime Rate Loan, as applicable. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of US Prime Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of US Prime Rate.

5.10Canadian Benchmark Replacement Setting

(a)Inability to Determine Rates.

(i)Subject to Sections 5.10(b) to 5.10(f), if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable:

(A)the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term CORRA” or “Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA”, as applicable, cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, for reasons other than a Canadian Benchmark Transition Event, or

(B)the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Term CORRA or Daily Compounded CORRA, as applicable, for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Loan, and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent,

(ii)the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.

(iii)Upon delivery of such notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower under Section 5.10(a)(i), any obligation of the Lenders to make Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, and any right of the Borrower to continue Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, or to convert Canadian Prime Rate Loans to Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, or affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice.

(iv)Upon receipt of such notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower under Section 5.10(a)(i),

(A)(1) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, (to the extent of the affected Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, or affected Interest Periods); (2) in respect of Term CORRA Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Daily Compounded CORRA Loans; or, failing such revocation or election, (3) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the amount specified therein; and

(B)(1) 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 (2) otherwise, or failing such election, any outstanding affected Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, will be deemed to have been converted, at the end of the applicable Interest Period, into Canadian Prime Rate Loans. 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 5.11.

(b)Canadian Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Financing Agreement, if a Canadian Benchmark Transition Event and its related Canadian Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior any setting of the then-current Canadian Benchmark, then (i) if a Canadian Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Canadian Benchmark Replacement” for such Canadian Benchmark Replacement Date, such Canadian Benchmark Replacement will replace such Canadian Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Financing Agreement in respect of such Canadian Benchmark setting and subsequent Canadian Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement and (ii) if a Canadian Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Canadian Benchmark Replacement” for such Canadian Benchmark Replacement Date, such Canadian Benchmark Replacement will replace such Canadian Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Financing Agreement in respect of any Canadian Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Canadian 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 Financing Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Canadian Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. If the Canadian Benchmark Replacement is Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA, all interest payments will be payable on the last day of each Interest Period.

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

(d)Notices, Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Canadian Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Canadian Benchmark Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Canadian Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Canadian Benchmark pursuant to Section 5.10(e) and (y) the commencement of any Canadian Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 5.10 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 Financing Agreement, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 5.10.

(e)Unavailability of Tenor of Canadian Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Financing Agreement, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Canadian Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Canadian Benchmark is a term rate (including Term CORRA) and either (A) any tenor for such Canadian Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Canadian Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Canadian Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Canadian Benchmark settings 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 Canadian Benchmark (including a Canadian 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 Canadian Benchmark (including a Canadian Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Canadian Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(f)Canadian Benchmark Unavailability Period.

The Administrative Agent shall maintain one or more loan account(s) on its books in which shall be recorded (a) all Loans and other Obligations and the Collateral, (b) all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower and (c) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this Agreement, including fees, charges, costs, expenses and interest. All entries in the loan account(s) shall be made in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary practices as in effect from time to time.

7.2Statements

The Administrative Agent shall render to the Borrower on behalf of all Lenders each month a statement setting forth the balance in Borrower’s loan account(s) maintained by the Administrative Agent for the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses. Each such statement shall be subject to subsequent adjustment by the Administrative Agent on behalf of all Lenders but shall, absent manifest errors or omissions, be considered correct and deemed accepted by the Borrower and conclusively binding upon the Borrower as an account stated except to the extent that the Administrative Agent receives a written notice from Borrower of any specific exceptions of the Borrower thereto within sixty (60) days after the date such statement has been received by the Borrower. Until such time as the Administrative Agent shall have rendered to the Borrower a written statement as provided above, the balance in Borrower’s loan account(s) with the Administrative Agent shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to all Lenders by the Borrower.

7.3Collection of Accounts

(a)Borrower shall establish and maintain, at its expense, blocked accounts (“Blocked Accounts”), with such Lenders as Borrower may select, and the Administrative Agent shall establish and maintain bank accounts of the Administrative Agent (“Payment Accounts”) in each case on its own books or with such banks as are selected by the Administrative Agent. Borrower shall promptly deposit and direct its account debtors that remit payments by electronic funds transfers to directly remit, to such Blocked Accounts all payments on Accounts and all payments constituting proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral in the identical form in which such payments are made, whether by cash, cheque or other manner. The banks at which the Blocked Accounts are established shall enter into an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, providing (i) that all items received or deposited in the Blocked Accounts are subject to the security interest held by the Administrative Agent, that the depository bank has no lien upon, or right to set-off against the Blocked Accounts, the items received for deposit therein, or the funds from time to time on deposit therein, save for customary rights in such agreements to recover normal fees, costs and expenses incurred in operating such accounts and reimbursement for chargebacks, errors and items returned through the clearing, and (ii) that the depository bank will wire, or otherwise transfer, in immediately available funds, on a daily basis, all funds received or deposited into the Blocked Accounts to the operating accounts maintained by an Operating Company with the Swingline Lender (each, a “Collection Account”).

(b)For purposes of calculating the amount of the Revolving Loans Borrowing Base available to the Borrower, such payments made to the Blocked Account, will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt by the Administrative Agent of immediately available funds in the Payment Account provided such payments are received within sufficient time to credit Borrower’s loan account(s) on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day. For the purposes of calculating interest on the Revolving Loans, such payments or other funds received will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the date of receipt of immediately available funds by the Administrative Agent in the Payment Account provided such payments or other funds are received within sufficient time to credit Borrower’s loan account(s) on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day. If the Administrative Agent receives funds in a Blocked Account at any time at which no Revolving Loans are outstanding or in excess of such outstanding Obligations, the Administrative Agent shall transfer such funds to the Borrower at such account as Borrower may direct (which account is, as of the date hereof, set out in Schedule 10.17), provided that the Borrower shall, at the Administrative Agent’s request, deposit such funds to an account maintained at the bank at which the Blocked Accounts are maintained (which account is, as of the date hereof, set out in Schedule 10.17) and, prior to such transfer, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a cash collateral agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent providing to the Administrative Agent a first priority security interest over such account.

(c)Borrower shall, acting as trustee for the Administrative Agent, receive, as the property of the Administrative Agent, any monies, cheques, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and promptly upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked Accounts or the Payment Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to the Administrative Agent. In no event shall the same be commingled with Borrower’s own funds. Borrower agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any amounts owed or paid to any bank at which a Blocked Account or Payment Account is established or any other bank or person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts or the Payment Accounts arising out of Lenders’ payments to or indemnification of such bank or person, unless such payment or indemnification is caused by the wilful misconduct or gross negligence of such Lender. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse Lenders for such amounts pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

(d)For greater certainty, the Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms, covenants and agrees to and in favour of Lenders that notwithstanding an Event of Default, it shall continue to comply with any Blocked Accounts or Payment Accounts agreements required pursuant to this Agreement and that the continued operation of such Blocked Accounts or Payment Accounts before or after an Event of Default shall not in any way be deemed to be an enforcement by Lenders of any of its security agreements and that Lenders have the contractual right, and the Borrower hereby consents and irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes and directs Lenders, to continue to apply any and all deposits and proceeds of Collateral against the outstanding Obligations.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions in this Section 7.3 relating to the Administrative Agent’s dominion over Borrower’s accounts, and particularly the required wire transfer to a Collection Account pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 7.3(a), shall only be triggered during the continuance of a Trigger Event. For greater certainty, all other provisions in this Section 7.3 shall apply in any event, including without limitation the obligation to make payments into the Blocked Accounts.

7.4Payments

All Obligations shall be payable to the Payment Accounts or such other place as the Administrative Agent may designate from time to time. Borrower shall make all payments to Lenders on the Obligations free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defence, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, withholding, restrictions or conditions of any kind. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the payment of, any of the Obligations, Lenders are required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lenders. Borrower shall be liable to pay to Lenders, and does hereby indemnify and hold Lenders harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds so surrendered or returned. This Section 7.4 shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by Lenders in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 7.4 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent may, and shall upon the direction of Required Lenders, apply any and all payments in respect of any Obligation in accordance with clauses (i) through (v) below. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded) and all proceeds received by the Administrative Agent as a result of the exercise of its remedies under the Financing Agreements after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be applied as follows:

(i)first, to payment of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements, of the Administrative Agent and Lenders due and payable or reimbursable by the Borrower under this Agreement and the Financing Agreements;

(ii)second, to interest on, and thereafter any principal outstanding on, the Swingline Facility;

(iii)third, to payment of all fees due and payable to the Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder (excluding fees in respect of any Ancillary Facilities);

(iv)fourth, in respect of proceeds from the Collateral, to amounts then due and payable on account of interest on, and thereafter any outstanding principal of, on a pari passu basis, the Revolving Loans and any Obligations under the Ancillary Facilities (up to an aggregate amount of the lesser of (i) 35,000,000 and (ii) the Ancillary Facilities Notice Amount); and

(v)fifth, to payment of any other amounts then due and owing on account of other Obligations, including without limitation Obligations under the Ancillary Facilities in excess of $35,000,000.

In carrying out the foregoing,

(A)amounts received shall be applied to each category of Obligations in the numerical order provided for above until exhausted prior to the application to the next category; and

(B)each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) (in each case, other than in respect of any Ancillary Facilities as provided in Section 2.12 above).

Lenders are authorized to make the Revolving Loans based upon facsimile or other instructions received from Borrower by anyone purporting to be a Senior Financial Officer of the Borrower or other authorized person; provided that, for greater certainty, such instructions are not required to be executed. All requests for Revolving Loans hereunder shall specify the Advance Date established (which day shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Loan. Requests received after 12:00 noon Toronto time on any day shall be deemed to have been made as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. All Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, and at the request of and for the benefit of, the Borrower when transferred for value to the credit of the Borrower’s designated account or otherwise disbursed or established in accordance with the instructions of the Borrower or in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Said policies of insurance shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, as to form, amount and insurer. The Borrower shall furnish certificates to the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably require as proof of such insurance, and, if the Borrower fails to do so, the Administrative Agent is authorized, but not required, to obtain such insurance at the expense of the Borrower. All policies shall provide for at least thirty (30) days (or such lesser period as the insurer is only prepared to agree to) prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of any cancellation or reduction of coverage and that the Administrative Agent may act as attorney for the Borrower in obtaining, and at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, adjusting, settling, amending and cancelling such insurance.

At the request of the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time, each Operating Company shall, at its expense, duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further agreements, documents and instruments, and do or cause to be done such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to evidence, perfect, maintain and enforce the security interests and liens and the priority thereof in the Collateral and to otherwise effectuate the provisions or purposes of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. The Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time request a certificate from an officer of the Borrower representing that all conditions precedent to the making of Loans contained in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, as applicable, have been satisfied. In the event of such request by the Administrative Agent, each Lender may, at its option, cease to make any further Loans until the Administrative Agent has received such certificate.

11.2Rights as a Lender

The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Obligor or any Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account to Lenders.

11.3Exculpatory Provisions

(a)The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Financing Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except to the extent set forth herein and in the other Financing Agreements, the Administrative Agent:

(i)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Financing Agreements that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Financing Agreements), but the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Financing Agreement or Applicable Law; and

(iii)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Financing Agreements, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Operating Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b)The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it which is permitted to be taken or not taken by it hereunder or under the other Financing Agreements (i) with the consent or at the request of Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as is necessary, as set out in the Financing Agreements, or as the Administrative Agent believes in good faith is necessary, under the provisions of the Financing Agreements) or (ii) in the absence of its own breach of the Financing Agreements, gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing the Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.

(c)Except as otherwise expressly specified in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, provided that the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the occurrence of an Event of Default of which the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge or notice, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Financing Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any

condition specified in this Agreement, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts in the absence of breach of any Financing Agreement, gross negligence and wilful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent.

11.5Indemnification of Administrative Agent

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and hold it harmless (to the extent not reimbursed by an Operating Company), rateably according to its Applicable Percentage (and not jointly or jointly and severally) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel, which may be incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Financing Agreements or the transactions therein contemplated. However, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

11.6Delegation of Duties

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent from among Lenders (including the Person serving as the Administrative Agent) and their respective Affiliates. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The provisions of this Section and other provisions of this Agreement for the benefit of the Administrative Agent shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent.

11.7Replacement of Administrative Agent

(a)The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a Lender having a Commitment to a Loan if one or more is established in this Agreement and having an office in Toronto or an Affiliate of any such Lender with an office in Toronto. The Administrative Agent may also be removed at any time by Required Lenders upon 30 days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as long as Required Lenders, in consultation with Borrower, appoint and obtain the acceptance of a successor within such 30 days, which shall be a Lender having a Commitment to a Loan if one or more is established in this Agreement and having an office in Toronto or an Affiliate of any such Lender with an office in Toronto.

(b)If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications specified in Section 11.7(a), provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders under any of the Financing Agreements, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in the preceding paragraph.

(c)Upon a successor’s appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the former Administrative Agent, and the former Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Financing Agreements (if not already discharged therefrom as provided in the preceding paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor and any predecessor shall refund to the Borrower the proportion of any annual agency fee paid to such predecessor attributable to the unexpired portion of the then current year for which such fees were paid. After the termination of the service of the former Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect for the benefit of such former Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the former Administrative Agent was acting as the Administrative Agent.

11.8Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Financing Agreement or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

11.9Collective Action of Lenders

The Administrative Agent and each of Lenders hereby acknowledges that to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any collateral security and the remedies provided under the Financing Agreements to the Administrative Agent or any Lender are for the benefit of Lenders collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and under any collateral security are to be exercised not severally, but by the Administrative Agent upon the decision of Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Financing Agreements). Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein or in any collateral security, each of Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder including, without limitation, any declaration of Default hereunder or thereunder but that any such action shall be taken only by the Administrative Agent with the prior written agreement of Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Financing Agreements). Each Lender hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written agreement being given, it shall co-operate fully with the Administrative Agent to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of instructions from Lenders and where in the sole opinion of the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably and in good faith, the exigencies of the situation warrant such action, the Administrative Agent may without notice to or consent of Lenders take such action on behalf of Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interest of Lenders.

11.10No Other Duties, etc.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners, arrangers or holders of similar titles, if any, specified in this Agreement shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

11.11Security

The security granted under the Financing Agreements shall be granted in favour and held by the Administrative Agent for and on behalf of Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall in accordance with its usual practices take all steps required to perfect and maintain such security and the Administrative Agent shall comply with all instructions provided by Lenders in connection with the enforcement or release of such security. The Administrative Agent agrees to permit each Lender to review and make photocopies of the original documents comprising such security from time to time upon reasonable notice.

11.12Security in favour of Lenders and Affiliates of Lenders in Certain Circumstances

Without limiting any provision contained in this Agreement or in any Financing Agreement, any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Financing Agreement shall also be held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders and any Affiliate of any Lender in respect of any indebtedness owing by any Obligor to such Lender or Affiliate in respect of any Ancillary Facilities provided by such Lender or Affiliate to any Obligor (including, without limitation, those services provided pursuant to Section 2.12 hereof).

11.13Distribution of Notice

Promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice or other document which is delivered to the Administrative Agent hereunder on behalf of Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such notice or other document to each Lender.

11.14Meeting of Lenders

Upon the written request of any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall call a meeting of all Lenders.

11.15Accordion Feature

(a)Accession. On each Accordion Effective Date on which an Accordion Lender becomes a Lender, this Agreement and each other Financing Agreement shall henceforth be read and construed as if such Accordion Lender were party to this Agreement as a Lender having all of the rights and obligations of a Lender expressed herein with respect to the Commitment that the Lender has agreed to accept and all references to any Lenders in any Financing Agreement shall (to the extent the context so admits) be construed accordingly. Each Lender irrevocably appoints, authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent, as its attorney and agent, with full power of substitution and delegation, to complete and execute on its behalf each Accordion Agreement relating to each such Accordion Lender. Each Lender agrees that it will be bound by the terms of each such Accordion Agreement so completed and executed by the Administrative Agent.

(b)Adjusting Payments. On each Accordion Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the amount of adjusting payments that may need to be made amongst the Lenders to ensure that their respective shares in outstanding Loans under the Revolving Loans equal their respective Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans. Each Accordion Lender shall advance to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such adjusting payment so required of it and the Administrative Agent shall, upon request, advance to each other Lender the amount of the corresponding adjusting payment required to be paid to it as determined above. The Borrower shall be obliged to repay outstanding Revolving Loans amongst the Lenders as adjusted pursuant to this Subsection 11.15(b). Adjusting payments in respect of CORRA Loans or SOFR Loans shall not take place until the expiry of their current terms and interest periods.

11.16Erroneous Payment

(a)Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof) (provided, that, without limiting any other rights or remedies (whether at law or in equity), the Administrative Agent may not make any such demand under this clause (a)(i) with respect to an Erroneous Payment unless such demand is made within 35 days of the date of receipt of such Erroneous Payment by the applicable Lender), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) 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 Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Administrative 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 sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an “Erroneous Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of receipt of such Erroneous Payment) with respect to such Erroneous Payment, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge (or deemed knowledge) of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative 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 Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(c)The Borrower and each other party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other party hereto.

(d)Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Financing Agreement.

SECTION 12 - EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

12.1Events of Default

The occurrence or existence of any one or more of the following events are referred to herein individually as an “Event of Default”, and collectively as “Events of Default”:

If such Required Coverage Ratio Cash is so contributed, (A) Section 10.13 shall be deemed not to have been breached for the applicable month and (B) in computing the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the twelve-month periods ending at the end of each of the following eleven months, such Required Coverage Ratio Cash shall be added to the numerator of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio;

(c)any Obligor fails to perform any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions contained in this Agreement (other than as set forth in paragraphs (a) to (b) inclusive) or any of the other Financing Agreements and such failure to perform (if capable of being cured) is not cured within fifteen (15) days of notice from the Administrative Agent to do so;

(d)any material representation, warranty or statement of fact made by any Obligor to Lenders in this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements or any other agreement, schedule, confirmatory assignment or otherwise shall when made or deemed made be false or misleading in any material respect;

(e)any Obligor revokes or terminates or questions the enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements;

All rights, remedies and powers granted to the Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements, the PPSA or other Applicable Law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more occasions, and shall include, without limitation, the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or threatened breach by any Obligor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. At any time an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may, at any time or times, proceed directly against any Obligor to collect the Obligations without prior recourse to the Collateral.

(b)Without limiting the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders by written notice to the Borrower (a “Notice of Termination”), accelerate the payment of all Obligations and demand immediate payment thereof to Lenders (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 12.1(h) and 12.1(i), all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable without the requirement to give any notice, and in such event, a Notice of Termination shall deemed to have been given). Following the delivery of a Notice of Termination by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and without limitation: (i) with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of the Collateral or complete processing, manufacturing and repair of all or any portion of the Collateral and carry on the business of each Operating Company, (ii) require each Operating Company, at each Operating Company’s expense, to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by the Administrative Agent, (iii) collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral, (iv) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other disposition thereof or for any other purpose, (v) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange, broker’s board, at any office of the Administrative Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with the Administrative Agent having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of Obligors, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by Obligors, (vi) borrow money and use the Collateral directly or indirectly in carrying on Obligors’ business or as security for loans or advances for any such purposes, (vii) grant extensions of time and other indulgences, take and give up security, accept compositions, grant releases and discharges, and otherwise deal with Obligors, debtors of Obligors, sureties and others as the Administrative Agent may see fit without prejudice to the liability of Obligors or Lender’s right to hold and realize the security interest created under any Financing Agreement, and/or (viii) terminate this Agreement. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased by the Administrative Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected by the Administrative Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law, fifteen (15) days prior notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be notice thereof and Obligors waive any other notice. In the event the Administrative Agent institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of pre-judgment remedy, Obligors waive the posting of any bond which might otherwise be required.

(c)The Administrative Agent shall apply the cash proceeds of Collateral actually received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations in accordance with Section 7.4. Obligors shall remain liable to Lenders for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including reasonable legal costs and expenses.

(e)The Administrative Agent may appoint, remove and reappoint any person or persons, including an employee or agent of a Lender to be a receiver (the “Receiver”) which term shall include a receiver and manager of, or agent for, all or any part of the Collateral. Any such Receiver shall, as far as concerns responsibility for his acts, be deemed to be the agent of Obligors and not of the Administrative Agent or Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not in any way be responsible for any misconduct, negligence or non-feasance of such Receiver, his employees or agents. Except as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent, all money received by such Receiver shall be received in trust for and paid to Lenders in their respective Pro Rata Shares. Such Receiver shall have all of the powers and rights of Lenders described in this Section 12.2. the Administrative Agent may, either directly or through its agents or nominees, exercise any or all powers and rights of a Receiver.

(f)Obligors shall pay all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, Lenders or any Receiver or any nominee or agent of the Administrative Agent or Lenders, whether directly or for services rendered (including, without limitation, reasonable solicitor’s costs on a full indemnity basis, auditor’s costs, other legal expenses and Receiver remuneration) in enforcing this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement and in enforcing or collecting Obligations and all such expenses together with any money owing as a result of any borrowing permitted hereby shall be a charge on the proceeds of realization and shall be secured hereby.

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 Financing Agreements 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 Financing Agreements were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
