Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in the form of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative.

U.S. Revolving Credit Loans may be Base Rate Loans (in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars) or, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or RFR Loans (in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling), as further provided herein. Canadian Revolving Credit Loans made to the Canadian Borrower shall be either Canadian Prime Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans (if made in Cdn.$) or Canadian Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans (if made in Dollars) as the Canadian Borrower may request subject to and in accordance with this Section 2.02. All Canadian Revolving Credit Loans shall be made in either Dollars or Canadian Dollars.

Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans shall be (i) in a principal amount of $3,000,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount or Canadian Dollar Amount), or (ii) a whole multiple of $1,000,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount or Canadian Dollar Amount) in excess thereof. Except as provided in Section 2.03(d), each Borrowing of, or conversion to, Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be (i) in a principal amount of $1,000,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount or Canadian Dollar Amount), or (ii) a whole multiple of $500,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount or Canadian Dollar Amount) in excess thereof.

Each Committed Loan Notice shall specify (i) the identity of the Borrower requesting a Credit Extension, (ii) whether such Borrower is requesting a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to another, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, (iii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iv) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (v) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted, (vi) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto, and (vii) the currency in which the Revolving Credit Loans to be borrowed are to be denominated (which shall be Dollars, Canadian Dollars or another Alternative Currency). If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, (x) the Borrower Representative fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice, then (A) a Borrowing of U.S. Revolving Credit Loans or Canadian Revolving Credit Loans requested in Dollars shall be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Canadian Base Rate Loan, respectively, and (B) a Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Credit Loans requested in Canadian Dollars shall be a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, or (y) the Borrower Representative fails to give a timely notice

requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as applicable, with an Interest Period of one month (unless it is the continuation of an RFR Loan or if the currency of the Loan is specified as Pounds Sterling, in which case the applicable Revolving Credit Loan shall be made as an RFR Loan having in Interest Period of one month). Any such automatic conversion or continuation pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans. If the Borrower Representative requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as applicable, in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Revolving Credit Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loan, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loan is provided by the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as applicable, with an Interest Period of one month as described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, and not later than the applicable time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Revolving Credit Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Canadian Dollars), in each case, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Each Lender may, at its option, make any Loan available to any Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (or, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the applicable Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by such Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the Borrower Representative, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, to the applicable Borrower as provided above.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, RFR Loan or BA Equivalent Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, RFR Loan or BA Equivalent Loan, as applicable, unless the applicable Borrower pays the amount due under Section 3.06 in connection therewith. During the existence of an Event of Default, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as applicable.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The Administrative Agent shall promptly upon the amount of any RFR Interest Payment becoming determinable notify (i) (such notification to be made no later than three applicable RFR Business Days prior to the due date for such RFR

Interest Payment) the Borrower Representative of the amount of that RFR Interest Payment; (ii) each relevant Lender of the proportion of that RFR Interest Payment which relates to that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the relevant RFR Loan; and (iii) the relevant Lenders and the Borrower Representative of each applicable rate of interest and the amount of interest for each day relating to the determination of that RFR Interest Payment (including a breakdown of such rate and amount of interest as between the Applicable Rate and the Daily Simple RFR for such date and any other information that the Borrower Representative may reasonably request in relation to the calculation of such rate and amount or the determination of that RFR Interest Payment). The determination of the Eurocurrency Rate, SONIA or BA Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(e) After giving effect to all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to another, and all continuations of Revolving Credit Loans of the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect.

(f) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing, which for the avoidance of doubt does not limit such Lender’s obligations under Section 2.17.

Section 2.03 Letters of Credit.

(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon (among other things) the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, Canadian Dollars or another Alternative Currency for the account of the U.S. Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (provided that (x) the U.S. Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn on any Letters of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrower or any U.S. Subsidiary that is a Restricted Subsidiary on a joint and several basis with such U.S. Subsidiary and shall be a co-applicant for each such Letter of Credit issued for the account of a U.S. Subsidiary, but in no event shall the Canadian Borrower, any Controlled Non-U.S. Subsidiary, any FSHCO or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of a Controlled Non- U.S. Subsidiary be responsible for any amounts drawn on any Letters of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrower or a U.S. Subsidiary and (y) the Canadian Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn on any Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary on a joint and several basis with such Restricted Subsidiary and shall be a co-applicant for each such Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Restricted Subsidiary, but in no event, will the U.S. Borrower or another U.S. Subsidiary be a co-applicant for, or beneficiary, of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower) and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(c), and (2) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the (x) Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Canadian Letters of Credit and (y) U.S. Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in U.S. Letters of Credit; provided that no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit, if as of the date of such L/C Credit Extension (I) the Total Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Borrowing Base, (II) the Total Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Facility, (III) the U.S. Revolving Exposure of any U.S. Revolving Credit Lender would exceed such U.S. Revolving Credit Lender’s U.S. Commitment, (IV) the Canadian Revolving Exposure of any Canadian Revolving Credit Lender would exceed such Canadian Revolving Credit Lender’s

denominated in the same currency as, the Unreimbursed Amount, in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02 but without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as the case may be, but subject to the amount of the unused portion of the Commitments under such Tranche and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by a L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(d)(i) may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such a prompt confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. Any payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any Unreimbursed Amount (other than (i) the funding of Base Rate Loans (in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit), (ii) the funding of Canadian Prime Rate Loans (in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars) or (iii) the funding of Canadian Base Rate Loans (in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars)) shall not constitute a Loan (but shall be Secured Obligations) and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such Unreimbursed Amount.

(ii) (x) With respect to each U.S. Letter of Credit, each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender (including each Lender acting as a L/C Issuer) and (y) with respect to each Canadian Letter of Credit, each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender (including each Lender acting as a L/C Issuer), in each case, under the applicable Tranche shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(d)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to, and in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, its applicable Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York Time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(d)(iii), (A) each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender under such Tranche that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Revolving Credit Loan under such Tranche to the U.S. Borrower in such amount and (B) each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender under such Tranche that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Credit Loan or Canadian Base Rate Revolving Credit Loan, as applicable, under such Tranche to the Canadian Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of (x) Base Rate Loans (in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit), (y) a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars) or (z) a Canadian Base Rate Loan (in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars) because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied (other than the condition in Section 4.02(c), which shall be deemed to be satisfied) or for any other reason, the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer a L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate then applicable to Base Rate Revolving Credit Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Credit Loans or Canadian Base Rate Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(d)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute a L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Tranche funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) to reimburse the applicable L/C

Section 2.04 [Reserved].

Section 2.05 Prepayments.

(a) Optional.

(i) Any Borrower may, upon notice by the Borrower Representative substantially in the form of Exhibit J to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than (A) 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loan or BA Equivalent Loan ~~and~~, (B) 2:00 p.m. (London time) five Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of RFR Loans and (C) 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Canadian Base Rate Loans (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent shall agree); (2) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans shall be (x) in a principal amount of $3,000,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount), or (y) a whole multiple of $1,000,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount or Canadian Dollar Amount, as applicable) in excess thereof; and (3) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Canadian Base Rate Loans shall be (x) in a principal amount of $1,000,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount or Canadian Dollar Amount, as applicable), or (y) a whole multiple of $500,000 (or the equivalent Dollar Amount or Canadian Dollar Amount, as applicable) in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, the Tranche of Loans to be prepaid, the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans (except that (A) if the class of Loans to be prepaid includes both Base Rate Loans or Canadian Base Rate Loans, as applicable, and Eurocurrency Rate Loans or RFR Loans, as applicable,, absent direction by the Borrower Representative, the applicable prepayment shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans or Canadian Base Rate Loans, as applicable, to the full extent thereof before application to Eurocurrency Rate Loans or RFR Loans, as applicable, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount payable by the applicable Borrower in respect of such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.06 and (B) if the class of Loans to be prepaid includes both Canadian Prime Rate Loans and BA Equivalent Loans, absent direction by the Borrower Representative, the applicable prepayment shall be applied first to Canadian Prime Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to BA Equivalent Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount payable by the applicable Borrower in respect of such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.06). The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s ratable share of the relevant Facility). If such notice is given by the Borrower Representative, subject to clause (ii) below, the applicable Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or BA Equivalent Loans shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.06. Each prepayment of the principal of, and interest on, any Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, shall be made in the relevant Alternative Currency.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any notice of prepayment under Section 2.05(a)(i) may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked or extended by the Borrower Representative (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(b) Mandatory.

(i) If after giving effect to any reduction or termination of Commitments under this Section 2.06, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

(ii) The Aggregate Commitments with respect to any Tranche of the Revolving Credit Facility shall automatically and permanently be reduced to zero on the Maturity Date with respect to such Tranche of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(c) Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Lenders of the applicable Facility of any termination or reduction of the Commitments under the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Commitment under this Section 2.06. Upon any reduction of Commitments under a Facility or a Tranche thereof, the Commitment of each Lender under such Facility or Tranche thereof shall be reduced by such Lender’s ratable share of the amount by which such Facility or Tranche thereof is reduced (other than the termination of the Commitment of any Lender as provided in Section 3.08). All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments and unpaid, shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

(b) Canadian Revolving Credit Loans. The Canadian Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders on the applicable Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facilities of a given Tranche the aggregate principal amount of all of its Canadian Revolving Credit Loans of such Tranche outstanding on such date.

(c) All Loans shall be repaid, whether pursuant to this Section 2.07 or otherwise, in the currency in which they were made.

Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(b) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein; provided that in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest based on the Base Rate, Canadian Prime Rate or Canadian Base Rate that are repaid or prepaid without any corresponding termination or reduction of the Commitments other than as set forth in Section 2.14(e)), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

(d) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 2.10 of this Agreement.

(e) [Reserved].

Section 2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(h) and (i):

(a) Commitment Fee. (i) The U.S. Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the U.S. Commitment of each Tranche, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee multiplied by the actual daily amount by which the aggregate U.S. Commitments under such Tranche exceed the U.S. Total Outstandings with respect to such Tranche, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.17. The Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the Canadian Commitment of each Tranche, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee multiplied by the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Canadian Commitments under such Tranche exceed the Canadian Total Outstandings with respect to such Tranche, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.17. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the last Business Day of the first full fiscal quarter to end following the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility (provided that, if any Revolving Credit Loans under such Tranche or any L/C Obligations under such Tranche remain outstanding following the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility or the date on which the Aggregate Commitments under such Tranche shall expire or be terminated, the commitment fee with respect to such Revolving Credit Loans and such L/C Obligations shall continue to accrue for so long as such Revolving Credit Loans and such L/C Obligations remain outstanding and shall be due and payable on demand).

For the avoidance of doubt, the commitment fee payable hereunder shall accrue and be payable in Dollars.

(b) Other Fees and Closing Payments. The applicable Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, the Arrangers, the Initial Principal Investors, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent such fees and closing payments as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified.

Section 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate. (a) (i) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans based on clause (b) in the definition of “Base Rate”and all computations of interest for RFR Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed, (ii) all computations of interest for BA Equivalent Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days and actual days elapsed, (iii) all computations of interest for Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Canadian Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) and (iv) all computations of interest for Loans in Pounds Sterling shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year) or, in the case of interest in respect of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which generally accepted market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such generally accepted market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower Representative, deliver to the Borrower Representative a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate hereunder.

(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the Borrowing Base or for any other reason, the U.S. Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Excess Availability as calculated by the U.S. Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of such ratio would have resulted in higher interest and/or fees for any period, the U.S. Borrower shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the U.S. Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and with any such demand by the Administrative Agent being excused), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This clause shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(d)(iii), Section 2.03(h) or (i), Section 2.08(b) or under Article VIII. Except in any case where a demand is excused as provided above, any additional interest and fees under this Section 2.10(b) shall not be due and payable until a demand is made for such payment by the Administrative Agent and accordingly, any nonpayment of such interest and fees as result of any such inaccuracy shall not constitute a Default (whether retroactively or otherwise), and none of such additional amounts shall be deemed overdue or accrue interest at the Default Rate, in each case at any time prior to the date that is five Business Days following such demand.

hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the equivalent Dollar Amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share in respect of the relevant Facility or Tranche thereof (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or RFR Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. An L/C Issuer can elect to receive payments in respect of Letters of Credit in Dollars rather than in an Alternative Currency.

(b) (i) 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 Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02(b) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if any Lender does not in fact make its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand an amount equal to such applicable share in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate or the Bank of Canada Overnight Rate, applicable, and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by any Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable, under the applicable Facility. If both such Borrower and such Lender pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid (less interest and fees) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by any Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make its share of any Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by the Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Representative prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or a L/C Issuer hereunder that any Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Appropriate Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower do not in fact make such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer,

Prime Rate, the interest rate on which Canadian Prime Rate Loans of such Lender, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the BA Rate component of the Canadian Prime Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), if applicable and such Lender’s BA Equivalent Loans are denominated in Cdn$, prepay or convert all of such Lender’s BA Equivalent Loans to Canadian Prime Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Canadian Prime Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the BA Rate component of the Canadian Prime Rate) in each case, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such BA Equivalent Loans to such day, or promptly after such demand, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such BA Equivalent Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 3.06. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

Section 3.04 Inability to Determine Rates.

(a) If the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that for any reason, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate or RFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan or RFR Loan, as applicable, or is informed by the Required Lenders that the Eurocurrency Rate or RFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan or RFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that deposits are not being offered to banks in the relevant interbank market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or RFR Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower Representative and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or RFR Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate and the Canadian Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Base Rate and the Canadian Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, the RFR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Canadian Base Rate Loans, as applicable, in the amount specified therein, and the applicable Borrower shall not have to pay any amounts that would otherwise be due under Section 3.06 with respect to such revocation or conversion (or, in the case of a pending request for a Loan (x) denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Pounds Sterling), the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lenders may establish a mutually acceptable alternative rate). or (y) denominated in Pounds Sterling, be deemed to have requested a Loan in Pounds Sterling that bears interest at the Central Bank Rate plus the Applicable Rate applicable to RFR Loans; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for Pounds Sterling cannot be determined, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount in question)).

(b) If the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that for any reason, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the BA Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect Equivalent Loans, respectively, shall remain as Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, respectively.

(e) If any Lender gives notice to any Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.03, 3.04 or 3.05 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loan pursuant to this Section 3.07 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as applicable, made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as applicable, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Eurocurrency Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as applicable and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

(f) A Lender shall not be entitled to any compensation pursuant to the foregoing sections to the extent such Lender is not imposing such charges or requesting such compensation from borrowers (similarly situated to the applicable Borrower hereunder) under comparable syndicated credit facilities.

Section 3.08 Replacement of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances.

(a) If at any time (i) any Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments described in Section 3.01 or 3.05 (other than with respect to Other Taxes) as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.03 or 3.04, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender (as defined below in this Section 3.08) (collectively, a “Replaceable Lender”), then the Borrower Representative may, on three Business Days’ prior written notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent and such Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, such notice shall be deemed provided on the same day that an amendment or waiver is posted to the Lenders for consent), either (i) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the applicable Borrower in such instance unless waived by the Administrative Agent) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case of a Non-Consenting Lender, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Facility or Facilities for which its consent is required) to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the applicable Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person or (ii) so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, terminate the Commitment of such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and (1) in the case of a Lender (other than a L/C Issuer), repay all Obligations of the applicable Borrower owing (and the amount of all accrued interest and fees in respect thereof) to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date and (2) in the case of a L/C Issuer, repay all obligations of the applicable Borrower owing to such L/C Issuer relating to the Loans and participations held by such L/C Issuer as of such termination date and cancel or backstop on terms satisfactory to such L/C Issuer any Letters of Credit issued by it; provided that (i) in the case of any such replacement of, or termination of Commitments with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender such replacement or termination shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders including any other replacement Lender) to cause the adoption of the applicable modification, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents and (ii) in the case of any such replacement as a result of the applicable Borrower having become obligated to pay amounts described in Section 3.01 or 3.05, such replacement would eliminate or reduce payments pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.05, as applicable, in the future. Any Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 3.08(a) shall (i) execute and deliver an

Agreement and the Canadian Intellectual Property Security Agreement and (iii) by the Canadian Loan Parties of the U.S. Security Agreement for Canadian Grantors and the U.S. Intellectual Property Security Agreement for Canadian Grantors and (b) Filing Collateral or Stock Certificates (each as defined below), to the extent any Lien on any Collateral is not or cannot be provided and/or perfected on the Closing Date after Holdings’, the U.S. Borrower’s and the Canadian Borrower’s use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without undue burden or expense, the provision and/or perfection of a Lien on such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent for purposes of this Section 4.01, but instead shall be required to be perfected after the Closing Date in accordance with Section 6.16; provided that, subject to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, Holdings and the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower shall have delivered all Stock Certificates (with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, to the extent received from the Company after Holdings’, the U.S. Borrower’s and the Canadian Borrower’s use of commercially reasonable efforts to receive such certificates or otherwise without undue burden or expense). For purposes of this paragraph, “Filing Collateral” means Collateral, including Collateral constituting investment property, for which a security interest can be perfected by filing a UCC or PPSA financing statement. “Stock Certificates” means certificates representing Capital Stock of the U.S. Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and the wholly owned U.S. Subsidiaries or wholly owned Canadian Subsidiaries of the Loan Parties (other than Immaterial Subsidiaries) (provided that Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to deliver Stock Certificates constituting Excluded Property) for which a security interest can be perfected by delivering such certificates, together with undated stock powers or other appropriate instruments of transfer executed in blank for each such certificate.

Section 4.02 Conditions to All Credit Extensions. The obligation of each Lender to honor any Request for Credit Extension (other than on the Closing Date, other than a Committed Loan Notice requesting only a conversion of Loans to the other Type, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, RFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans) is subject to the following conditions precedent:

(a) Subject in the case of any Borrowing in connection with a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase to the provisions in Section 1.02(i), the representations and warranties of each Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in Article V or any other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) on and as of the date of such Credit Extension, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 4.02, the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.05(a) and (b) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to Sections 6.01(a) and (b), respectively, prior to such proposed Credit Extension.

(b) Subject in the case of any Borrowing in connection with a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase to the provisions in Section 1.02(i), no Default or Event of Default shall exist, or would result from such proposed Credit Extension or from the application of the proceeds therefrom.

(c) Availability under the applicable Borrowing Base on the date of such Credit Extension shall be adequate to cover the amount of such Credit Extension.

(d) The Credit Extension shall not exceed that amount of the Borrowing Base attributable to the assets of the applicable Borrower (as reflected in the most recently delivered Borrowing Base Certificate or, prior to the delivery of the first Borrowing Base Certificate, as reasonably allocated with respect to the deemed Borrowing Base Floor).

(e) The Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the L/C Issuer shall have received a Request for Credit Extension in accordance with the requirements hereof.

Each Request for a Credit Extension (other than a Committed Loan Notice requesting only a conversion of Loans to the other Type or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or RFR Loans) submitted by the Borrower Representative or any Borrower shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty that the conditions specified in Sections 4.02(a), (b), (c) and (d) have been satisfied (unless waived) on and as of the date of the applicable Credit Extension.

Representations and Warranties

Each of Holdings (solely with respect to Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03, 5.04, 5.08, 5.12, 5.13, 5.14,

5.18, 5.19 and 5.20) and the Borrowers represents and warrants, in each case after giving effect to the Transactions, to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the Lenders on the Closing Date and on each other date thereafter on which a Credit Extension is made, that:

Section 5.01 Existence, Qualification and Power; Compliance with Laws. Each Loan Party and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries (subject, in the case of clause (c), to the Legal Reservations and Section 5.03) (a) is a Person duly organized, formed or incorporated, amalgamated or continued, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority to (i) own or lease its assets and carry on its business and (ii) execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (c) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the Laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and (d) has all requisite governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to operate its business as currently conducted; except in each case referred to in clause (a) (other than with respect to the Borrowers), (b)(i), (b)(ii) (other than with respect to the Borrowers), (c) and (d), to the extent that any failure to be so or to have such could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.02 Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of each Loan Document to which such Person is or is to be a party, are within such Loan Party’s corporate or other powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action and do not (a) contravene the terms of any of such Person’s Organization Documents or (b) violate any Law; except in each case to the extent that such violation could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.03 Governmental Authorization; Other Consents. No approval, consent, exemption, authorization or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is necessary or required in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, performance by, or enforcement against, any Loan Party of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the consummation of the Transactions, (b) the grant by any Loan Party of the Liens granted by it pursuant to the Collateral Documents or (c) the perfection or maintenance of the Liens created under the Collateral Documents, except for (w)(1) with respect to Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantors that are U.S. Subsidiaries, filings and registrations necessary to perfect the Liens on the Collateral granted thereby consisting of UCC financing statements and filings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office and (2) with respect to the Canadian Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantors that are Canadian Subsidiaries, filings and registrations necessary to perfect the Liens on the Collateral granted thereby consisting of PPSA financing statements and filings in the

being waived by Holdings (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in any currency), other than deposits in fiduciary accounts as to which a Loan Party is acting as fiduciary for another Person who is not a Loan Party and other than payroll or trust fund accounts, at any time held by, and other Indebtedness (in any currency) at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties against any and all Obligations owing to such Secured Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (or Security Agreement), now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or other Security Agreement) and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness 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 2.17 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. Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Secured Party; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Secured Party may have. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, in no event shall the assets of any Controlled Non-U.S. Subsidiary or FSHCO (or other Excluded Property) constitute security for payment of the Obligations of the U.S. Borrower, it being understood that (i) the Capital Stock of any Controlled Non-U.S. Subsidiary or FSHCO that is directly owned by the U.S. Borrower or a U.S. Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower does not constitute such an asset, and may be pledged, but only to the extent not constituting Excluded Property and (ii) proceeds of Excluded Property shall constitute security for payment of the Obligations (unless such proceeds would constitute Excluded Property). For the avoidance of doubt, any setoff of deposits or obligations for the credit or the account of any Canadian Loan Party that constitutes Excluded Subsidiaries with respect to the U.S. Obligations may only be against the Canadian Obligations.

Section 10.10 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed

~~counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document~~The words “execution,” “execute”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission.

Section 10.12 Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and those provisions of the Commitment Letter and the Fee and Closing Payment Letter that, by their terms, survive the termination or expiration of the Commitment Letter or the Closing Date, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. It is expressly agreed and confirmed by the parties hereto that the provisions of the Fee and Closing Payment Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the occurrence of the Closing Date, and shall continue in effect thereafter in accordance with their terms. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto as of the date hereof.

Section 10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation (other than contingent indemnification or other obligations and obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (other than Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized or as to which arrangements satisfactory to the L/C Issuer that issued such Letters of Credit shall have been made).

Section 10.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular
