No Event of Default exists or would exist after giving effect thereto (except in the case of an Incremental Term Facility used to finance a Permitted Acquisition, in which circumstances, no Default or Event of Default under Section 7.01(1)(a), Section 7.01(1)(b) or Section 7.01(1)(l) exists or would exist after giving effect thereto) and all applicable representations and warranties pursuant to Article 5 shall be true and correct in all material respects on the date of the funding thereof (except in the case of an Incremental Term Facility used to finance a Permitted Acquisition, in which circumstances, the Specified Representations shall be true and correct in all material respects);

(b)

Open Text will be in compliance on a pro forma basis with the financial covenant in Section 6.03 after giving effect to such Incremental Term Facility (assuming the Commitments thereunder are fully drawn);

(c)

Advances and Commitments made by way of an increase to the Commitment shall be on terms (including currency and Effective Yield) and conditions identical to those applicable to the then-existing Term Loan Facility;

(d)

In regard to Advances and Commitments made by way of a new tranche of Term Loan Advances, the Effective Yield for the Incremental Term Facility shall be determined by the Borrower and the Lenders of the Incremental Term Facility; provided that in the event that the Effective Yield for any Incremental Term Facility incurred during the first 18 months following the Closing Date is greater than the Effective Yield for the Term Loan Facility, then the Effective Yield for the Term Loan Facility shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Effective Yield for such Incremental Term Facility is not more than 50 basis points higher than the Effective Yield for the Term Loan Facility unless the Applicable Margins for the Term Loan Facility are increased by an amount equal to the difference between the Effective Yield for such Incremental Term Facility and the corresponding Effective Yield for the Term Loan Facility minus 50 basis points; provided, further, that such Advances and Commitments shall be on terms and conditions otherwise substantially similar to those applicable to the then-existing Term Loan Facility and, to the extent not so substantially similar with the then-existing Term Loan Facility, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(e)

Such increased amounts will be provided by the existing Lenders or new financial institutions that become Lenders under the Incremental Term Facility (such new financial institutions to be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent); provided that no existing Lender will be obligated to provide any such Incremental Term Facility;

- 55 -

(f)

The Incremental Term Facility will not in any event have a maturity date that is earlier than the Term Loan Repayment Date or a weighted average life to maturity shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the then-existing Term Loan Facility; and

(g)

The Administrative Agent shall have received such other corporate authorizations, opinions, or documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

Section 2.02 Commitments and Facility Limits

(1)

Unless previously terminated or cancelled, the Commitments shall automatically terminate upon the termination of the Certain Funds Period.

(2)

The Term Loan Facility shall not revolve and any amount repaid or prepaid, as the case may be, under the Term Loan Facility cannot be reborrowed.

(3)

Accommodations under the Term Loan Facility shall be made available in a single drawing on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed the outstanding Commitment at such time. The unused portion of the Commitment shall be permanently cancelled on the Closing Date and the Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the amount by which the Accommodations Outstanding under the Term Loan Facility on such date are less than the Commitment on such date.

(4)

A conversion from one Type of Accommodation to another Type of Accommodation shall not constitute a repayment or prepayment.

Section 2.03 Use of Proceeds

The Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Borrowing under the Term Loan Facility for Certain Funds Purposes.

Section 2.04 Mandatory Repayments

The Borrower shall repay (subject to Section 7.01) the Accommodations Outstanding under the Term Loan Facility in quarterly instalments equal to 0.25% multiplied by the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Advances made pursuant to Section 3.01(1)), in each case, on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, with the balance payable on the Term Loan Repayment Date. The amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be reduced by each prepayment, (if any), of principal under the Term Loan Facility pursuant to Section 2.09.

Section 2.05 Mandatory Prepayments/Offers to Prepay

(1)

Unless a Mandatory Prepayment Suspension is in effect, an amount equal to the Net Proceeds from any Disposition of any Assets (other than Permitted Dispositions, unless such Permitted Disposition is made under clause (iv) of the definition thereof) in excess of U.S. $100,000,000 (or the equivalent amount in any other currency) in the aggregate in each Financial Year (whether individually or in

- 56 -

the aggregate) by any Loan Party shall be applied within 10 Business Days of receipt thereof, to the prepayment of Accommodations Outstanding under the Term Loan Facility in accordance with Section 2.09 hereof; provided that if, for any Financial Year, the threshold amount specified above exceeds the aggregate amount of applicable Dispositions made by Open Text and its Subsidiaries, as determined on a consolidated basis during such Financial Year, the threshold amount set forth above for the succeeding Financial Year shall be increased by 50% of such excess amount; provided, further, that if notice of the Borrower’s intention to reinvest such Net Proceeds in the Business of the Loan Parties within 365 days of receipt thereof is delivered to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days of receipt thereof, such Net Proceeds shall not be applied to prepayment of the Accommodations Outstanding as set forth in this Section 2.05(1); provided, further, that if, after delivery of such notice of intention to reinvest such Net Proceeds any such Net Proceeds are (i) no longer intended to be so reinvested or (ii) such Net Proceeds are not so reinvested in the Business of the Loan Parties within 365 days of receipt thereof, then an amount equal to any such Net Proceeds shall be immediately applied to the prepayment of the Accommodations Outstanding under the Term Loan Facility as set forth in this Section 2.05(1); provided, however, that if, during such 365-day period, the Borrower has entered into a binding commitment to reinvest such Net Proceeds, the Borrower shall have an additional 180 days from the end of such 365-day period to reinvest such Net Proceeds.

(2)

Unless a Mandatory Prepayment Suspension is in effect, an amount equal to the Net Proceeds of any Debt other than Permitted Debt shall be applied ratably to the prepayment of Accommodations Outstanding under the Term Loan Facility ratably in accordance with Section 2.09 hereof.

(3)

Unless a Mandatory Prepayment Suspension is in effect, an amount equal to the Net Proceeds of any insurance required to be maintained pursuant to Article 6 (other than business interruption insurance) received by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries on account of each separate loss, damage or injury to any part of the Collateral in excess of U.S. $50,000,000 (unless such proceeds or an amount not less than such proceeds shall have been expended or committed by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary for the repair or replacement of such property within 365 days of receipt of such Net Proceeds), shall be applied (or to the extent the Administrative Agent or the Lenders are loss payees under any insurance policy, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably directed to apply such Net Proceeds) ratably to the prepayment of Accommodations Outstanding under the Term Loan Facility in accordance with Section 2.09 hereof; provided, however, that if, during such 365-day period, the Borrower has entered into a binding commitment to repair or replace such property with such Net Proceeds, the Borrower shall have an additional 180 days from the end of such 365-day period to repair or replace such property with such Net Proceeds.

(4)

If at the time that any such prepayment would be required under either Section 2.05(1) or 2.05(3), any Loan Party is required to Discharge any Other Applicable Debt with Other Applicable Net Proceeds pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Debt, then such Loan Party may apply such Net

- 57 -

Proceeds otherwise required to repay the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(1) or 2.05(3), as applicable, on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Debt requiring such Discharge at such time), to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repurchase or prepayment of Other Applicable Debt, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to Section 2.05(1) or 2.05(3), as applicable, shall be reduced accordingly (provided that the portion of such Net Proceeds allocated to the Other Applicable Debt shall not exceed the amount of such Other Applicable Net Proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Debt pursuant to the terms thereof and the remaining amount, if any, of such portion of Net Proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans to the extent required in accordance with the terms of Section 2.05(1) or 2.05(3), as applicable).

(5)

The Borrower shall offer to prepay all Accommodations Outstanding upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, which offer shall be at 100% of the principal amount of the Accommodations Outstanding, plus, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest, such prepayment to be applied in accordance with Sections 2.08 and 2.09. Any Lender accepting such offer shall be prepaid in full; provided that if the Majority Lenders shall have accepted such offer, then all Lenders shall be deemed to have accepted such offer and the Borrower shall prepay all outstanding amounts under the Term Loan Facility (including the principal amount of all Accommodations Outstanding plus any accrued and unpaid interest and fees), with such prepayments to be applied in accordance with Sections 2.08 and 2.09.

Section 2.06 Optional Prepayments

The Borrower may, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, prepay Accommodations Outstanding under the Term Loan Facility at any time without premium or penalty (other than breakage costs, if any, payable pursuant to Section 8.01(2)); provided that prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, if the Borrower (x) prepays, repays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.05(2) that constitutes a Repricing Transaction), or (y) effects any amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent under, this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, such Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Lenders, (I) in the case of clause (x), a premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced (plus all accrued and unpaid interest and breakage costs, if any, payable pursuant to Section 8.01(2)) and (II) in the case of clause (y), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans that are the subject of such Repricing Transaction outstanding immediately prior to such amendment, modification, waiver or consent. Each partial prepayment or reduction shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of U.S. $5,000,000 and in an integral multiple of U.S. $1,000,000.

Section 2.07 Fees

Open Text shall pay all Fees, including an annual administrative fee to the Administrative Agent in an amount as agreed to by Open Text and the Administrative Agent.

- 58 -

Section 2.08 Payments under this Agreement

(1)

Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Borrower shall make any payment required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by depositing the amount of the payment in the relevant currency to the Borrower’s Account not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date the payment is due. The Borrower shall make each such payment in U.S. Dollars. In respect of the Term Loan Facility, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each applicable Lender, promptly on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment, an amount equal to the amount then due each such Lender.

(2)

Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall make Accommodations under the Term Loan Facility and other payments to the Borrower under this Agreement by crediting the Borrower’s Account (or causing the Borrower’s Account to be credited) with, or by wire transferring to such account(s) as may be directed by the Borrower, the amount of the payment not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date the payment is to be made.

(3)

The Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent any payment owed to such Lender by the Borrower is not made to the Administrative Agent when due, to charge from time to time any amount due against any or all of the Borrower’s accounts with such Lender upon notice to the Borrower.

Section 2.09 Application of Payments and Prepayments

(1)

Each prepayment pursuant to Section 2.05(1), Section 2.05(2), Section 2.05(3), or Section 2.06 shall be applied ratably to the repayments pursuant to Section 2.04.

(2)

All amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or on behalf of a Borrower and not previously applied pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows (i) first, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any unpaid interest and any Fees which are due and owing; (ii) second, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any claims or losses referred to in Section 14.01; (iii) third, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any amounts due and owing on account of any unpaid principal amount of Advances and Obligations arising under Eligible Cash Management Agreements and Eligible Hedging Agreements, in each case, which are due and owing; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Eligible Cash Management Agreements and Eligible Hedging Agreements shall be excluded from any such application if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Lender, as the case may be; (iv) fourth, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any other unpaid Accommodations Outstanding which are due and owing; (v) fifth, in reduction of any other obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; and (vi) sixth, to the Borrower or such other Persons as may lawfully be entitled to or directed by a Borrower to receive the remainder.

- 59 -

Section 2.10 Computations of Interest and Fees

(1)

All computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent taking into account the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable pursuant to Section 3.05, and (i) if based on the Base Rate, a year of 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be; or (ii) if based on the Term SOFR Reference Rate, on the basis of a year of 360 days.

(2)

All computations of Fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, taking into account the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such fees are payable.

(3)

For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest or Fee under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a number of days less than a full year, such rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by the number of days comprising such calculation basis; (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement; and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

(4)

If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Credit Documents would obligate a Loan Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by Law or would result in a receipt by such Lender 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 such Lender 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 such Lender under the applicable Credit Document, and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such Lender which would 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 a Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), the Loan Party paying the amount shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such Lender, to obtain reimbursement from such Lender in an amount equal to such excess and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by such Lender to the Borrower or Guarantor. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 2.10(4) 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 Accommodations Outstanding remain 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

- 60 -

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 of this Agreement to the Term Loan Repayment Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

Section 2.11 Security

(1)

In each case subject to Permitted Exceptions, by the applicable dates specified below, the Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided by the Guarantors, in each case, to the Administrative Agent, for and on behalf of the Lenders, as continuing collateral security for the present and future indebtedness and liability of the Borrower and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantees, respectively, to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the following security (the “Security”), in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, together with any relevant reasonably required power of attorney, registrations, filings and other supporting documentation deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent or its counsel to perfect the same or otherwise in respect thereof:

(a)

on the Effective Date, a Guarantee;

(b)

on the Effective Date, general security agreements (which, for greater certainty, shall not include a hypothec with respect to moveable property located in the Province of Québec) in a form substantially similar to the Existing Canadian Security Agreements or Existing U.S. Security Agreement, as applicable, constituting a security interest in all personal property (or moveable property, as applicable) and assets of the Loan Parties (including all contract rights, inventory, accounts, general intangibles, Equity Securities, deposit accounts, Intellectual Property, equipment and proceeds of the foregoing), which security interest shall be of first priority, subject, if and to the extent applicable, to any Permitted Encumbrances (each being an “Effective Date Security Agreement”), and subject to the grace periods specified in each Effective Date Security Agreement and in connection with deposit accounts, Section 6.01(15)(c), with respect to items of Collateral that cannot be perfected by the filing of a PPSA or UCC financing statement; and

(c)

within 120 days following (x) the Closing Date or (y) the acquisition of any Material Owned Real Property (or, if earlier, at the same time provided to the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent, the Term B Agreement Agent or the Bridge Agent), debentures, mortgages, deeds of trust or deeds to secure debt (or immoveable hypothec, as applicable) constituting a charge on such real property (or immoveable property, as applicable) of the Loan Parties (as determined by the Administrative Agent), which charge shall be a first ranking and exclusive charge, subject, if and to the extent applicable, to any Permitted Encumbrances (each being a “Debenture”).

- 61 -

(2)

Subject to Permitted Exceptions, Open Text will from time to time at its expense duly authorize, execute and deliver (or cause the applicable Loan Party to authorize, execute and deliver) to the Administrative Agent such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits granted or intended to be granted to the Administrative Agent, or any Lender or the Collateral Agent by the Credit Documents and of the rights and remedies therein granted to the Administrative Agent, or any Lender or the Collateral Agent, including the filing of financing statements or other documents under any Law with respect to the Encumbrances created thereby. The Loan Parties acknowledge that the Credit Documents have been prepared on the basis of Law in effect on the Effective Date, and that changes to Law may require the execution and delivery of different forms of documentation, and accordingly the Administrative Agent shall have the right (acting reasonably) to require that the Credit Documents be amended, supplemented or replaced (and Open Text shall, or shall cause the applicable Loan Party to duly authorize, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any such amendment, supplement or replacement reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Credit Documents) within 30 days of written request therefor (i) to reflect any Change in Law, whether arising as a result of statutory amendments, court decisions or otherwise; (ii) to facilitate the creation and registration of appropriate forms of security in applicable jurisdictions; or (iii) to confer upon the Administrative Agent Encumbrances similar to the Encumbrances created or intended to be created by the Credit Documents.

(3)

Within (x) 120 days following the Closing Date or (y) with respect to Bidco, 30 days after the Effective Date (or, in either case, such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion), Open Text will, at its expense, cause the delivery to the Administrative Agent of:

(a)

in the case of Bidco, the Target and any Material Target Subsidiary domiciled in the United Kingdom, such security agreements, debentures, mortgages, pledge agreements or other agreements or instruments as may be reasonably necessary to grant a security interest in its assets on terms substantially similar to the Existing U.K. Security Documentation, as applicable;

(b)

in the case of the Target and any Material Target Subsidiary domiciled in the United States or Canada, general security agreements (which, for greater certainty, shall not include a hypothec with respect to moveable property located in the Province of Québec) in a form substantially similar to the Existing Canadian Security Agreements or Existing U.S. Security Agreement (or in the form of joinder thereto as the Administrative Agent may agree), as applicable, constituting a security interest in all personal property (or moveable property, as applicable) and assets of each such Person (including all contract rights, inventory, accounts, general intangibles, Equity Securities, deposit accounts, Intellectual Property, equipment and proceeds of the foregoing), which security interest shall be of first priority, subject, if and to the extent applicable, to any Permitted

- 62 -

Encumbrances (each being a “Target Security Agreement”), and subject to the grace periods specified in each Target Security Agreement and in connection with deposit accounts, Section 6.01(15)(c), with respect to items of Collateral that cannot be perfected by the filing of a PPSA or UCC financing statement;

(c)

in the case of Bidco, the Target and any Material Target Subsidiary domiciled in the United Kingdom, the United States or Canada, a Guarantee (or in the form of joinder thereto as the Administrative Agent may agree); and

(d)

in the case of Bidco, the Target and any Material Target Subsidiary domiciled in the United Kingdom, the United States or Canada, such corporate resolutions, certificates, legal opinions and such other related documents, including, in respect of real property, reasonably satisfactory title insurance or a reasonably satisfactory title opinion and surveys, as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with the relevant forms and types thereof delivered on the Effective Date or as shall be otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent;

In connection with the joinder of Bidco, the Target or any of its Subsidiaries as a Guarantor hereunder pursuant to this clause (3), Open Text will cause Bidco, the Target and each applicable Subsidiary thereof to (i) certify to the Administrative Agent that (x) the representations and warranties contained in Article 5 are true and correct with respect to Bidco, the Target or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in all material respects as if made by such Person on and as of the date of such joinder, and (y) no event has occurred and is continuing that would constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to Bidco, the Target or such Subsidiary, as applicable, on and as of the date of such joinder and (ii) deliver to the Administrative Agent such supplemental schedules as may be necessary for Bidco, the Target and each such Subsidiary to accurately make the foregoing certifications. Upon the delivery of any such supplemental schedules to the Administrative Agent, the corresponding schedule attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to include the information set forth in the applicable supplemental schedule on and after the date of such delivery.

(4)

(x) Within 45 days following the Effective Date and (y) at the time of the joinder of the Target or any of its Subsidiaries as a Guarantor hereunder pursuant to clause (3) above, Open Text will, at its expense, deliver to the Administrative Agent a customary perfection certificate (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) with respect to each Loan Party at the time each such certificate is required to be delivered.

Section 2.12 Defaulting Lenders

(1)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

- 63 -

(a)

That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 16.01(4).

(b)

Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.01), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Borrowing in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Borrowings under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c)

That Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fee hereunder for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(2)

If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine to be necessary to cause the Borrowings to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their ratable shares, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that, no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting

- 64 -

Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.13 Amend and Extend Transactions

(1)

Open Text may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request an extension (each, an “Extension”) of the Term Loan Repayment Date of any Advance and Commitments to the extended maturity date specified in such notice. Such notice shall:

(a)

set forth the amount of the Term Loans to be extended (which shall be in minimum increments of U.S. $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of U.S. $5,000,000);

(b)

set forth the date on which such Extension is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than ten (10) Business Days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such Extension (or such longer or shorter periods as the Administrative Agent shall agree)); and

(c)

identify the relevant Term Loans to which such Extension relates.

Each Lender shall be offered (an “Extension Offer”) an opportunity to participate in such Extension on a pro rata basis and on the same terms and conditions as each other Lender pursuant to procedures established by, or reasonably acceptable to, the Administrative Agent.

If the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans requested to be extended by Open Text pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans of Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer.

(2)

It shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Extension that (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to such Extension, (b) the representations and warranties set forth in Article 5 and in each other Credit Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Extension, and (c) the terms of such Extended Term Loans shall comply with Section 2.13(3).

(3)

The terms of each Extension shall be determined by Open Text and the applicable extending Lender and set forth in an Extension Amendment; provided that (a) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loan shall be no earlier than the Term Loan Repayment Date, (b) the average life to maturity of the Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining average life to maturity of the existing Term Loans, (c) the Extended Term Loans will rank pari passu (or more junior) in right of payment and with respect to security with the Term Loans and the borrower and guarantors of the Extended Term Loans, shall be the same as the Borrower and Guarantors with respect to the existing Term Loans, (d) the interest rate margin,

- 65 -

rate floors, fees, original issue discounts and premiums applicable to any Extended Term Loan shall be determined by Open Text and the applicable extending Lender and (e) to the extent the terms of the Extended Term Loans are inconsistent with the terms set forth herein (except as set forth in clauses (a) through (d) above), such terms shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(4)

In connection with any Extension, Open Text, the Administrative Agent and each applicable extending Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Extension Amendment and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Extension. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension. Any Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and Open Text, to implement the terms of any such Extension Offer, including any amendments necessary to establish Extended Term Loans as new Term Loans and such other technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and Open Text in connection with the establishment of such new Term Loans on terms consistent with this Section 2.13).

Section 2.14 Benchmark Replacement Setting

(1)

Benchmark Replacement.

(a)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, then (A) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected 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.

(b)

No swap agreement shall be deemed to be a “Credit Document” for purposes of this Section 2.14.

(2)

Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the

- 66 -

Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

(3)

The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.14(4). 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 2.14, 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 Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

(4)

Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including any Term Benchmark) 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 such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative 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 (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (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.

- 67 -

any pending request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that any tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.

Section 2.15 Inability to Determine Rates; Illegality.

(1)

Subject to Section 2.14, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Term Benchmark” cannot be determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make or continue Term Benchmark Advances or to convert Base Rate Advances to Term Benchmark Advances shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term Benchmark Advances or, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Advances (to the extent of the affected Term Benchmark Advances or, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, in the case of any request for an affected Term Benchmark Borrowing, then such request shall be ineffective and (ii) any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Advances denominated in U.S. Dollars will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.01. If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Term Benchmark” cannot be determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in each case on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Advances shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent revokes such determination.

(2)

If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Advances whose interest is determined by reference to any Term Benchmark, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any Term Benchmark, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent), (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term Benchmark Advances or to convert Base Rate Advances to Term Benchmark Advances shall be suspended, and (b) the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause

- 68 -

(c) of the definition of “Base Rate”, in each case 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, (i) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Term Benchmark Advances of such Lender to Base Rate Advances (the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”), on the interest payment date therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term Benchmark Advances to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term Benchmark Advances and (ii) if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon any Term Benchmark.

nominee is a member of such clearing agency) or otherwise as the Administrative Agent may reasonably direct in such Securities or Instruments created pursuant to the Security Documents or (ii) cause the Administrative Agent to have control over such Securities or Instruments.

(ii)

During the continuance of an Event of Default, if any Securities or Instruments (other than Intercompany Securities or Intercompany Instruments) owned by a Guarantor are evidenced, in whole or in part, by uncertificated securities registered or recorded in records maintained by or on behalf of the issuer thereof in the name of a clearing agency or a custodian or of a nominee of either, the applicable Guarantor will notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such Securities and Instruments (unless such notice previously has been given) and, at the request and option of the Administrative Agent, (A) cause an appropriate entry to be made in the records of the clearing agency or custodian, as applicable, to record the interest of the Administrative Agent or its nominee (if the Administrative Agent or such nominee is a member of such clearing agency) or otherwise as the Administrative Agent may reasonably direct in such Securities or Instruments created pursuant to the Security Documents or (B) cause the Administrative Agent to have control over such Securities or Instruments.

(iii)

None of the Guarantors will, either before or after an Event of Default, make any entry in the records of a clearing agency or custodian or the applicable securities register to record any security interest of any Person, other than the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective agents, in any Securities or Instruments owned by a Guarantor, or will grant control to any Person other than the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective agents or the agent of a Guarantor over such Securities or Instruments so long as such Guarantor is the owner thereof.

(iv)

If any Guarantor acquires ownership of any Intercompany Securities or Intercompany Instruments, such Guarantor will, together with the next Compliance Certificate required to be delivered in accordance with Section 6.01(1)(a)(iii) following the date of such acquisition of Intercompany Securities or Intercompany Instruments, notify the Administrative Agent in writing and provide the Administrative Agent with a revised Schedule L recording the acquisition and particulars of such Instruments or Securities. Upon request by the Administrative Agent, such Guarantor will promptly deliver to and deposit with the Administrative Agent, or cause the Administrative Agent to have control over, all such Securities or Instruments as security for the Secured Obligations of the applicable Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which such Guarantor is party.

(v)

Forthwith upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing, each Guarantor will provide the Administrative Agent with a list of all Securities and Instruments (other than Intercompany Securities or Intercompany Instruments) held by it, and will notify the Administrative Agent of the acquisition by it of any additional Securities and Instruments

- 92 -

(other than Intercompany Securities or Intercompany Instruments). Upon request by the Administrative Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Guarantor will promptly deliver to and deposit with the Administrative Agent, or cause the Administrative Agent to have control over, all Securities or Instruments (other than Intercompany Securities or Intercompany Instruments) owned or held by such Guarantor, as security for the Secured Obligations of the applicable Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which such Guarantor is party.

(vi)

Each Guarantor will ensure that no Person other than itself, its agent or another Person on its behalf, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective agents has possession of any certificated Securities or certificated Instruments owned by such Guarantor.

(vii)

Each Guarantor will, with respect to any Securities or Instruments owned by it, at the request of the Administrative Agent (but, in the case of Securities or Instruments that are not Intercompany Securities or Intercompany Instruments, such request shall only be made during the continuance of an Event of Default) (i) cause the transfer of such Securities or Instruments to the Administrative Agent (or its nominee (if the Administrative Agent or such nominee is a member of such clearing agency) or otherwise as the Administrative Agent may reasonably direct) to be recorded in the records of a clearing agency or custodian, if and as applicable under Law, or on the applicable securities register or (ii) duly endorse such Securities or Instruments for transfer in blank or register them in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee or otherwise as the Administrative Agent may reasonably direct, (iii) immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent any and all consents or other documents which may be necessary to effect the transfer of such Securities or Instruments to the Administrative Agent or any third party and (iv) deliver to or otherwise cause the Administrative Agent to have control over such Securities or Instruments.

(b)

Intellectual Property. Promptly following the request of the Administrative Agent, each Loan Party will furnish the Administrative Agent in writing the description of all material Registered Intellectual Property or applications for material Registered Intellectual Property of such Loan Party. In addition, upon request of the Collateral Agent (and at any time the same is delivered to the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent, the Term B Agreement Agent or the Bridge Agent), such Loan Party will deliver to the Administrative Agent a copy of the appropriate short-form security agreement suitable for filing with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office (as applicable), for such Registered Intellectual Property confirming the grant of security in such Registered Intellectual Property to the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, and promptly make all such filings, registrations and

- 93 -

recordings as are necessary to preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest granted to the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, in such Registered Intellectual Property.

(c)

Maintaining the Account Collateral. So long as any Accommodation or any other Secured Obligation secured by the Security and Pledge Agreement (other than contingent indemnification claims as to which no valid demand has been made, “Unmatured Surviving Obligations”) of any Loan Party under any Credit Document shall remain unpaid or shall be outstanding, any Eligible Cash Management Agreement or Eligible Hedging Agreement shall be in effect or any Lender Party shall have any Commitment:

(i)

Commencing on the date that is 60 days following the Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree), each U.S. Grantor will maintain deposit accounts only with the financial institution acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder or with a bank (a “Pledged Account Bank”) that has agreed with such U.S. Grantor and the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to comply with instructions originated by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, directing the disposition of funds in such deposit account without the further consent of such U.S. Grantor, such agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such U.S. Grantor (a “Deposit Account Control Agreement”); provided, however, that this Section 6.01(15)(c) shall only apply to accounts maintained in the United States and shall not apply to deposit accounts (A) used solely as a tax or payroll account, escrow account, trust account, petty cash account or flexible spending account, in each case maintained in the ordinary course of business or (B) or other deposit accounts to the extent that the aggregate amount on deposit with all such other deposit accounts does not exceed U.S. $20,000,000, or such lower amount as may be required under the Revolving Credit Agreement at any time.

(ii)

The Administrative Agent may (or may request that the Collateral Agent), at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, request that each U.S. Grantor instruct each Person obligated at any time to make any payment to such U.S. Grantor for any reason (an “Obligor”) to make such payment to a Pledged Deposit Account or the Collateral Account, except that such U.S. Grantor shall not be under such obligation with respect to Persons (i) making payments to a Pledged Deposit Account or Collateral Account as of the date hereof, (ii) making payments to such U.S. Grantor of less than $250,000 a year in the aggregate, or (iii) making payments to accounts not purported to be subject to the security of the Guaranteed Parties in accordance with this Agreement, if any.

(iii)

The Administrative Agent may (or may request that the Collateral Agent), at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default and without notice to, or consent from, any U.S. Grantor, transfer, or direct the transfer of,

- 94 -

funds from the Pledged Deposit Accounts to the Collateral Account to satisfy the Secured Obligations under the Security and Pledge Agreement and other Credit Documents.

(iv)

Upon any termination by a U.S. Grantor of any Pledged Deposit Account, such U.S. Grantor will promptly (i) to the extent transferred within the United States, transfer all funds and property held in such terminated Pledged Deposit Account to another Pledged Deposit Account or the Collateral Account and (ii) notify all Obligors that were making payments to such Pledged Deposit Account, to the extent future payments continue to be made within the United States, to make all future payments to another Pledged Deposit Account or the Collateral Account, in each case so that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have a continuously perfected security interest in such Collateral Account, funds and property.

(d)

Collections on Assigned Agreements and Instruments. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.01(15)(d), each U.S. Grantor will continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to such U.S. Grantor under the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts (each such term being used herein as defined in the Security and Pledge Agreement). In connection with such collections, such U.S. Grantor may take (and, at the Administrative Agent’s direction upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, will take) such action as such U.S. Grantor or the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon written notice to such U.S. Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the Obligors under any Assigned Agreements or Instruments of the assignment of such Assigned Agreements and Instruments to the Administrative Agent and to direct such Obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such U.S. Grantor thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such U.S. Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Assigned Agreements and Instruments to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such U.S. Grantor might have done, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such Assigned Agreements and Instruments, including those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. After receipt by any U.S. Grantor of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in the proviso to the preceding sentence upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) all amounts and proceeds (including instruments) received by such U.S. Grantor in respect of the Assigned Agreements and Instruments of such U.S. Grantor shall be deemed to be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such U.S. Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form

- 95 -

as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be deposited in the Collateral Account and either (A) released to such U.S. Grantor on the terms set forth in Section 5 of the Security and Pledge Agreement so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (B) if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, applied as provided in Section 14(b) of the Security and Pledge Agreement and (ii) upon notice from the Administrative Agent in connection with the enforcement of its rights and remedies under the Credit Documents, such U.S. Grantor will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable or amount due on any Instrument, release wholly or partly any Obligor thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon. No U.S. Grantor will permit or consent to the subordination of its right to payment under any of the Assigned Agreements or Instruments to any other indebtedness or obligations of the Obligor thereof.

(e)

Commercial Tort Claims. Each U.S. Grantor will promptly give notice to the Administrative Agent of any commercial tort claim of such U.S. Grantor that may arise after the date hereof with an anticipated recovery of at least $2,000,000 and will immediately execute or otherwise authenticate a supplement to the Security and Pledge Agreement, and otherwise take all action reasonably necessary to subject such commercial tort claim to the security interest created under such Security Document.

(16)

Financial Assistance. Each Loan Party shall comply, in each case in all material respects, with sections 677 to 683 (inclusive) of the Companies Act (if applicable) and all other applicable laws and regulations relating to financial assistance by a company for the acquisition or subscription for shares or relating to protection of shareholders’ capital in other applicable jurisdictions, including in relation to the execution and performance of the Credit Documents and the payment of amounts due under the Credit Documents.

(ii) except as consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing, not increase the price paid for any Target Shares pursuant to a Scheme or, as the case may be, an Offer (unless the increased amount payable is fully funded by equity contributions to the Borrower or the issuance of equity interests by the Borrower on terms approved by the Administrative Agent) and ensure that the terms of the Offer or Scheme as set out in the Offer Documents or the Scheme Documents (as the case may be) are consistent in all material respects with the respective press release delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.01(1)(c) subject to any

- 96 -

variation required by the Takeover Code, the Court or the Panel and, in each case, to any variations which would not contravene Section 6.01(17)(b). In the case of an Offer, the Acceptance Condition shall be not capable of being satisfied, unless acceptances have been received that would, when aggregated with all Target Shares (excluding shares held in treasury) directly or indirectly owned by the Borrower, result in the Borrower (directly or indirectly) holding shares representing, in any case, not less than 75% of all Target Shares carrying voting rights on a fully diluted basis (excluding any shares held in treasury) as at the date on which the Offer is declared unconditional (the “Minimum Acceptance Level”);

(iii) comply in all material respects with the Takeover Code, subject to any consents, waivers or dispensations granted by the Panel or the requirements of the Court, and all other applicable laws and regulations that are relevant to any Offer or Scheme;

(vii) in the case of an Offer, following the Closing Date, should the Borrower become entitled to exercise its Squeeze-Out Rights, promptly ensure that Squeeze-Out Notices are delivered to the relevant holders of shares in Target and otherwise comply with all of the applicable provisions of the Companies Act to enable it to exercise its Squeeze-Out Rights;

(viii) shall not take any action, and procure that none of its Affiliates nor any person acting in concert with the Borrower or Bidco (within the meaning of the Takeover Code) takes any action, which would require the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries

- 97 -

to make a mandatory offer for the Target Shares in accordance with Rule 9 of the Takeover Code or which would require a change to be made to the terms of the Scheme or the Offer (as the case may be), including pursuant to Rule 6 or Rule 11 of the Takeover Code which change, if made voluntarily, would be a Materially Adverse Amendment;

(ix) not at any time (including following the Offer Unconditional Date or Scheme Effective Date) make any public announcement or public statement (other than in the relevant Press Release or Acquisition Document) concerning this Agreement or the parties to this Agreement (other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) in connection with the financing of the Target Acquisition without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or unless required to do so by the Takeover Code or the Panel, the Court, any regulation, any applicable stock exchange, any applicable governmental or other regulatory authority;

(x) in the case of an Offer, not declare the Offer unconditional unless the Minimum Acceptance Level is achieved;

(xi) subject always to the Companies Act and any applicable listing rules, in the case of a Scheme, within 30 days after the Scheme Effective Date and, in the case of an Offer, within 30 days after the date upon which the Borrower (directly or indirectly) owns Target Shares (excluding any shares held in treasury) which represent not less than 75% of all Target Shares (excluding any shares held in treasury), procure that such action as is necessary is taken to apply for the cancellation of trading in the Target Shares on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange and the listing of the Target Shares on the official list maintained by the Financial Conduct Authority pursuant to Part 6 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and to cause the Target to reregister as a private company under the Companies Act as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter; and

(b)

Except as consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), each of the Borrower and Bidco hereby covenants and agrees that it will not amend, treat as satisfied or waive (i) any term or condition of the Scheme Documents or, as the case may be, the Offer Documents (including, without limitation, the Acceptance Condition), other than any such amendment, treatment or waiver which is not a Materially Adverse Amendment, or (ii) if the Target Acquisition is proceeding as an Offer, the Acceptance Condition if the effect of such amendment, treatment or waiver would be that the Acceptance Condition would be capable of being satisfied at a level less than the Minimum Acceptance Level.

(18)

ARTICLE 8

YIELD PROTECTION

Section 8.01 Increased Costs; Reserves on Term SOFR Advances

(1)

Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(a)

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, including Term SOFR funds or deposits;

(b)

subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (c) and (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c)

impose on any Lender or the London applicable interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Accommodations made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, or maintaining any Accommodation (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Accommodation), or to increase the cost to such Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(2)

Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense (excluding any loss, cost or expense arising from Taxes) incurred by it as a result of:

(a)

any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Advance other than a Base Rate Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b)

any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make an Advance) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Advance other than a Base Rate Advance on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or

- 110 -

(c)

any assignment of a Term SOFR Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor pursuant to Section 3.05 or as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.03;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Advance or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not be obligated to compensate any Lender under this Section for any loss of anticipated profits in respect of any of the foregoing. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Term SOFR Advance made by it at the Term SOFR Reference Rate.

(3)

Liquidity or Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding liquidity or capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s liquidity or capital or on the liquidity or capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Accommodations made 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 liquidity or capital adequacy), then from time to time the 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.

(4)

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 (1), (2) or (3) of this Section (“Additional Compensation”), including a description of the event by reason of which it believes it is entitled to such compensation, and supplying reasonable supporting evidence and reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts, and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. In the event the Lender subsequently recovers all or part of the Additional Compensation paid by the Borrower, it shall promptly repay an equal amount to the Borrower. The obligation to pay such Additional Compensation for subsequent periods will continue until the earlier of termination of the Accommodation or the Commitment affected by the Change in Law, change in capital or liquidity requirement or the lapse or cessation of the Change in Law giving rise to the initial Additional Compensation. A Lender shall make reasonable efforts to limit the incidence of any such Additional Compensation and seek recovery for the account of the Borrower upon the Borrower’s reasonable request at Borrower’s expense, provided such Lender in its reasonable determination suffers no appreciable economic, legal, regulatory or other disadvantage. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, a Lender shall only be entitled to rely upon the provisions of this Section 8.01 if and for so long as it is

- 111 -

generally making corresponding demands for similar amounts for similarly situated borrowers pursuant to provisions similar to the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.01 in other loan documents to which such Lender is party.

(5)

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 the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefore, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, in which case the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 8.01 shall survive the payment in full of the other obligations hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.02 Taxes

(1)

Payments Subject to Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any Credit Document shall be made free and clear and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes; provided that, if any Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes in respect of any such payment by or on account of any obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document, then (i) the Loan Party shall make any such deductions required to be made by it under Law, (ii) the Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Law and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax the sum payable by the Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and payments (including such 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.

(2)

Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (1) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Law.

(3)

Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 15 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in respect of any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower

- 112 -

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 conclusive absent manifest error. In the event the Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified under this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section) by the Borrower, it shall pay an equal amount to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund. Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall promptly repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 8.02(3) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority). A Lender shall make reasonable efforts to limit the incidence of any payments under this Section and seek recovery for the account of the Borrower upon the Borrower’s reasonable request at the Borrower’s expense, provided such Lender in its reasonable determination suffers no appreciable economic, legal, regulatory or other disadvantage and further provided that nothing in this Section shall require a Lender to disclose any Tax returns of such Lender or any other Tax information which such Lender deems to be confidential.

(4)

Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 8.02, the Loan Party 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.

(5)

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 the 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 Credit Document 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 Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements.

(6)

If a payment made by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Credit Document would be subject to withholding tax imposed pursuant to FATCA if any Lender fails to comply with applicable reporting and other requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including documentation prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(c)(i) of

- 113 -

the Code or such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA), to determine the amount to withhold or deduct from such payment and to determine that such Lender has complied with such applicable reporting and other requirements of FATCA.

(7)

Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “Law” includes FATCA.

All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 8.02 shall survive the payment in full of the other obligations hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.03 Mitigation Obligations: Replacement of Lenders

(1)

Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 8.01, 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 8.02, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Accommodations hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender (with the prior consent of the Borrower), such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.01 or 8.02, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(2)

Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 8.01, if the Borrower is required to pay any material additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 8.02, if any Lender’s obligations are suspended pursuant to Section 2.15, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Accommodations hereunder, then the Borrower may either, at its sole expense and effort, upon 10 days’ notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent (i) repay all outstanding amounts due to such affected Lender (or such portion which has not been acquired pursuant to clause (ii) below) and thereupon such Commitment of the affected Lender shall be permanently cancelled and the aggregate Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the same amount and the Commitment of each of the other Lenders shall remain the same; or (ii) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 15.01), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(a)

the Borrower pays the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 15.01(2)(d);

- 114 -

(b)

the assigning Lender receives payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Accommodations Outstanding, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (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);

(c)

in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 8.01 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 8.02, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(d)

such assignment does not conflict with 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 the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

ARTICLE 9

RIGHT OF SETOFF

Section 9.01 Right of Setoff.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each of the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates 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 Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations of the Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender has made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such Obligations of the Loan Party 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; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender 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 such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the 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 9.01, it shall share the benefit received in accordance with Section 10.01 as if the benefit had been received by the Lender of which it is an Affiliate.

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 Accommodations and accrued interest thereon or other obligations hereunder greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such payment or other reduction shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Accommodations Outstanding 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 the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Accommodations Outstanding and other amounts owing them; provided that:

(a)

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

(b)

the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Loan Party 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 Accommodations to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply); and

(c)

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 Credit Documents, (x) any payment made in respect of an obligation that is secured by a Permitted Encumbrance or that is otherwise entitled to priority over the Borrower’s Obligations under or in connection with the Credit Documents, (y) any reduction arising from an amount owing to a Loan Party upon the termination of derivatives entered into between the Loan Party 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.

(2)

The Loan Parties consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party 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 Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

ARTICLE 11

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S CLAWBACK

Section 11.01 Administrative Agent’s Clawback

(1)

Funding by Lenders; Presumption by 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 Accommodation included in such advance. If the Lender does not do so forthwith, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on written 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 the Borrower may have against a Lender that has failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(2)

Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the 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 the Lenders. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the 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.

The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may resign at any time upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the prior consent of Borrower (except during the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default, during which no consent shall be required), to appoint a successor.

(2)

If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent or the retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent or the retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, may, but shall not be required to, with the prior consent of Open Text (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent or successor Collateral Agent, respectively, meeting the qualifications specified in Section 12.07(1); provided that if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall notify Open Text and the 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 or the retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent or the retiring Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent or successor Collateral Agent, respectively, is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or the successor Collateral Agent, respectively, as provided for above in the preceding paragraph.

Upon a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, as applicable, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the former Administrative Agent or the former Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the former Administrative Agent or the former Collateral Agent, respectively, shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided in the preceding paragraph).

Section 12.08 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents 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 Agents 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 Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 12.09 Collective Action of the Lenders

Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that to the extent permitted by Law, any collateral security and the remedies provided under the Credit Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders (including the Cash Management Banks and Hedge 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 or the Collateral Agent upon the decision of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Credit Documents). Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein or in any collateral security, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder including any declaration of default hereunder or thereunder but that any such action shall be taken only by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent with the prior written agreement of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Credit Documents). Each of the Lenders hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written agreement being given, it shall co-operate fully with the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of instructions from the 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 the Lenders take such action (or direct the Collateral Agent to take such action) on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interest of the Lenders.

Section 12.10 No Other Duties, etc.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Lead Arrangers nor 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 Credit Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or a Lender hereunder.

Section 12.11 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law relating to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Borrowing shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

- 123 -

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the obligations hereunder or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Each Lender (and each Participant, by its acceptance of a participation) hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds (or any portion thereof) received by such Lender (any of the foregoing, a “Payment Recipient”) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) and demands the return of such Payment, such Payment Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment as to which such a demand was made. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Each Payment Recipient agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made.

(3)

Any Payment required to be returned by a Payment Recipient under this Section shall be 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 Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. Each Payment Recipient hereby agrees that it shall not assert and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives, any right to retain such Payment, and any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment or similar right to any demand by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payment received,

- 126 -

including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(4)

The Borrower and each other Subsidiary hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such 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 Subsidiary except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary.

(5)

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

The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all the Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders to treat the Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent the Borrower Materials constitute information governed by Section 20.01, they shall be treated as set forth therein); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers shall be entitled to treat the Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.”

- 131 -

(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Accommodations Outstanding at the time owing to it); provided that:

(a)

except if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Accommodations Outstanding at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment being assigned (which for this purpose includes Accommodations Outstanding hereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Accommodations Outstanding of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than U.S. $1,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents to a lower amount (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(b)

in connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), and to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (4) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement with respect to the interest assigned and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including any collateral security, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Article 8 and Article 14, and shall continue to be liable for any breach of this Agreement by such Lender, with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any payment by an assignee to an assigning Lender in connection with an assignment or transfer shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrower or a new Accommodation to the Borrower.

(3)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 15.01 or any other provision of this Agreement, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its Commitment, Term Loans, commitments under any Incremental Term Facility or loans under any Incremental

- 133 -

Term Facility owing to it to the Borrower on a pro rata basis (provided, that each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Term Loan and any related Commitments, or any applicable loan under an Incremental Term Facility and any related commitments under such Incremental Term Facility, as applicable), subject to the following limitations:

(a)

(i) such repurchase shall be effected pursuant to one or more modified Dutch auctions (each, an “Auction”); provided that, (ii) notice of the Auction shall be made to all Term Lenders and lenders under each Incremental Term Facility and (iii) the Auction shall be conducted pursuant to such procedures as the Auction Manager may establish which are consistent with this Section 15.01 and the Auction Procedures set forth on Schedule 8 and are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent;

(b)

With respect to all repurchases made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 15.01, (i) the Borrower shall deliver to the Auction Manager a certificate of a Responsible Officer stating that (x) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such repurchase and (y) as of the launch date of the related Auction and the effective date of any Affiliate Assignment Agreement, it is not in possession of any information regarding the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their Affiliates, or their assets, the Borrower’s ability to perform its obligations or any other matter that may be material to a decision by any Lender to participate in any Auction or enter into any Affiliate Assignment Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby that has not previously been disclosed to the Auction Manager, the Administrative Agent and the Non-Public Lenders and (ii) the assigning Lender and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Auction Manager an Affiliate Assignment Agreement; and

(c)

Following repurchase by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 15.01, the Term Loans and loans under any Incremental Term Facility so repurchased shall, without further action by any Person, be deemed cancelled for all purposes and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold by the Borrower), for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Credit Documents, including, but not limited to, (i) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or (iii) the determination of the Majority Lenders, or for any similar or related purpose, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. In connection with any Term Loans and loans under any Incremental Term Facility repurchased and cancelled pursuant to this Section 15.01, the Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any such cancellation.

(4)

Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York,

- 134 -

New York a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Accommodations Outstanding owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (but, only in the case of a Lender, at the Administrative Agent’s office and with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Commitments and their Obligations), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon written request by Open Text, the Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy of the Register to Open Text within 5 Business Days after any such request.

(5)

Limitations upon Assignee Rights. Except in the case of an assignment made during the continuance of an Event of Default, no assignee shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.01 and 8.02 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the Commitments and Accommodations assigned to such assignee, unless such assignment is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

(6)

Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement(including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Accommodations Outstanding owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clause (2) of Section 16.01 that directly affects such Participant. Any payment by a Participant to a Lender in connection with a sale of a participation shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrower or a new Accommodation to the Borrower.

Subject to paragraph (7) of this Section, and to the extent permitted by Law, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article 8 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph

- 135 -

(2) of this Section, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Article 10 as though it were a Lender.

(7)

Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.01 and 8.02, and in respect of any breakage costs payable hereunder, than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

(8)

Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(9)

Participant Register. The applicable Lender, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant, and the amount of each such Participant’s interest in such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the applicable rights and/or obligations of such Lender under this Agreement. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

(8)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 16.01, if at any time after the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Credit Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Document.

Section 16.02 Judgment Currency.

(1)

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due to a Lender in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, such Lender could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given or, if permitted by Law, on the day on which the judgment is paid or satisfied.

(2)

The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to any Lender under any of the Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Other Currency, the Lender may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency. If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Lender in the Original Currency, the Borrower agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the judgment, to indemnify the Lender, against any loss, and, if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Lender in the Original Currency, the Lender shall remit such excess to the Borrower.

Section 16.03 Releases.

Upon the Disposition of any item of Collateral of any Loan Party in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent will, at the applicable Loan Party’s expense, execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the Encumbrances granted under the Security Documents in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents, and, in the case of any Disposition involving the sale of any Guarantor (to the extent permitted by the Credit Documents), a release of such Loan Party from its obligations under the Guarantee and all other Credit Documents to which it is bound or subject.

Section 19.01 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution

(1)

Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when it has been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent has received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or by sending a scanned copy by electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(2)

Electronic Execution. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature, “and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption or any Credit Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based record keeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Law, including Parts 2 and 3 of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada), the Electronic Commerce Act, 2000 (Ontario) and other similar federal or provincial laws based on the Uniform Electronic Commerce Act of the Uniform Law Conference of Canada or its Uniform Electronic Evidence Act, as the case may be.

Section 19.02 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 19.02, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Law, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 19.03 Payments Set Aside.

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not

- 141 -

been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 19.04 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative; Enforcement.

No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right remedy, power or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right remedy, power or privilege.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any

- 143 -

liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)

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

(b)

the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)

a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)

a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; or

(iii)

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

Section 19.08 Acknowledgement Regarding any Supported QFCs.

To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Hedging Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Credit Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of Ontario and/or of Canada or any other province of Canada, the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special

- 144 -

Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Credit Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Credit Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

To induce the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders to execute and deliver this Agreement and to make or maintain the Accommodations, and in consideration thereof, each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, and irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantees to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Cash Management Banks and the Hedge Lenders (the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Cash Management Banks and the Hedge Lenders are collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties” and each a “Guaranteed Party”), due and punctual payment and performance to the Guaranteed Parties upon written demand made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement of all debts, liabilities and obligations of or owing (a) by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (b) by any other Loan Party under any Eligible Cash Management Agreement or any Eligible Hedging Agreement, in each case, to any Guaranteed Party at any time, present and future, direct or indirect, absolute and contingent, matured or not, and all amendments, restatements, renewals, extensions or supplements and continuations thereof, and whether as principal or surety, and including all liabilities of the Borrower arising as a consequence of its failure to pay or fulfil any of such debts, liabilities and obligations, excluding for all purposes of the foregoing for each Guarantor, all Hedging Obligations that constitute Excluded Hedging Obligations for such Guarantor (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations” or the “Secured Obligations”).

Each Guarantor which is incorporated or formed under the laws of a jurisdiction located within the United States, and by its acceptance of this Guarantee, the Administrative Agent and each Lender, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guarantee and the Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of U.S. bankruptcy laws, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guarantee and the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and such Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor under this Guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will not result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor under this guarantee constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Lender under this Guarantee or any other guarantee, such Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, such amounts to each other Guarantor and each other guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of the Credit Documents.

- 147 -

Section 21.02 Indemnity.

In addition to the guarantee specified in Section 21.01, each Guarantor agrees to, jointly and severally, indemnify and save each Guaranteed Party harmless from and against all costs, losses, expenses and damages it may suffer as a result or consequence of the Borrower’s default in the performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any of the Guaranteed Obligations being or becoming void, voidable or unenforceable or ineffective against the Borrower, or any inability by any Guaranteed Party to recover the ultimate balance due or remaining unpaid to such Guaranteed Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations reasonable legal fees incurred by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party resulting from any action instituted on the basis of this Guarantee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Guaranteed Party, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Guaranteed Party.

Section 21.03 Payment and Performance.

(1)

If the Borrower fails or refuses to punctually make any payment or perform its Guaranteed Obligations, each Guarantor shall unconditionally render any such payment or performance upon demand in accordance with the terms of this Guarantee.

The only condition (and no other document, proof or action other than as specifically provided in this Guarantee is) necessary as a condition of each Guarantor honouring its obligations under this Guarantee shall be a written demand by the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing. This Guarantee shall be a continuing guarantee, shall cover all the Guaranteed Obligations, and shall apply to and secure any ultimate balance due or remaining unpaid to any Guaranteed Party. This Guarantee shall continue to be binding regardless of:

(1)

whether any other Person or Persons (an “Additional Guarantor”) shall become in any other way responsible to any Guaranteed Party for, or in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(2)

whether any such Additional Guarantor shall cease to be so liable;

(3)

the enforceability, validity, perfection or effect of perfection or non-perfection of any security interest securing the Guaranteed Obligations, or the validity or enforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; or

(4)

This Guarantee is to extend to the liabilities of the Person or Persons for the time being and from time to time carrying on the business now carried on by any Loan Party, notwithstanding any reorganization of any Loan Party or any Additional Guarantor or the amalgamation of any Loan Party or any Additional Guarantor with one or more other corporations (in this case, this Guarantee shall extend to the liabilities of the resulting corporation and the terms “Guarantor”, and “Additional Guarantor” shall include such resulting corporation) or any sale or disposal of any Loan Party’s or the Additional Guarantor’s business in whole or in part to one or more other Persons and all of such liabilities shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor agrees that the manner in which the Guaranteed Parties may now or subsequently deal with any other Loan Party or any Additional Guarantor or any security (or any collateral subject to the security) or other guarantee in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have no effect on any Guarantor’s continuing liability under this Guarantee and such Guarantor irrevocably waives any rights it may have in respect of any of the above.
