(2)     All calculations for the purposes of determining compliance with the financial ratios and financial covenants contained in this Agreement will, for fiscal quarters prior to the first full fiscal quarter the Borrower is listed on an accredited U.S. exchange, be made on a basis consistent with IFRS as it exists on December 31, 2018 and used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the Borrower for its financial year ended December 31, 2018, and thereafter be made on the basis consistent with U.S. GAAP.

For the purposes of this Agreement, whenever interest to be paid hereunder is to be calculated on the basis of 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or such other number of days in such period, as the case may be.

ARTICLE 2 - THE CREDIT FACILITY

2.01 Borrower Facilities

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lender establishes in favour of the Borrower a revolving term facility (the “Credit Facility”) in an amount up to Cdn. $50,000,000 or the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars, which facility will be available only during the Revolving Period.

2.02 Extension of the Credit Facility

The Credit Facility will expire on July 24, 2022 unless extended by the Lender in its sole discretion at the request of the Borrower for a further period of one year in accordance with this Section 2.02. Such expiry date, as extended from time to time in accordance with this Section 2.02, is referred to herein as the “Final Maturity Date”. If the Borrower wishes to extend the Final Maturity Date, the Borrower will deliver to the Lender, at least 60 but not more than 90 days in advance of any Final Maturity Date (the “Current Final Maturity Date”), a notice in which the Borrower requests the Lender to extend the Credit Facility for an additional one year period after the Current Final Maturity Date. The Lender must provide notice to the Borrower, not more than 30 days after receipt of such notice from the Borrower either (a) that it wishes to make an irrevocable offer to the Borrower (which may be accepted within the time and on the terms set out in such offer and with effect on the Current Final Maturity Date) to extend the Credit Facility for an additional 364 day period, with effect from the Current Final Maturity Date, or (b) that it declines to approve the requested extension. If the Lender makes an offer to the Borrower that is not accepted by the Borrower, the Borrower will repay all amounts outstanding

under the Credit Facility on the Final Maturity Date. The Borrower may request two extensions of the Final Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.02.    

2.03 Purpose of Credit Facility

Loans under the Credit Facility will only be used for working capital and general corporate purposes in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower and the other Restricted Parties.

2.04 Manner of Borrowing

The Borrower may (a) in Canadian Dollars, make Drawdowns, Conversions and Rollovers under the Credit Facility of Prime Rate Loans, Overdraft Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances and CDOR Loans, (b) in United States Dollars, make Drawdowns, Conversions and Rollovers of Base Rate Loans, Overdraft Loans and LIBOR Loans, and (c) in either Canadian Dollars or United States Dollars, make Drawdowns and Conversions of Letters of Credit, provided that the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit may not exceed Cdn. $10,000,000 or the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars.

2.05 Revolving Nature of Credit Facility

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may increase or decrease the amount of Obligations outstanding under the Credit Facility by making Drawdowns, repayments and further Drawdowns.

2.06 Drawdowns, Conversions and Rollovers

(1)     Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may (a) make Drawdowns hereunder, (b) convert the whole or any part of any type of Loan into any other type of Loan, or rollover any Bankers’ Acceptances, CDOR Loan or LIBOR Loan on the last day of the applicable Interest Period therefor, by giving the Lender a Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice, as the case may be.

(2)     The Borrower must give the Lender a Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice, as the case may be, three Business Days (in the cases of LIBOR Loans) and two Business Days (in the case of all other Loans) prior to the proposed Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or Rollover Date, as the case may be. A Drawdown Date, Conversion Date and Rollover Date must be a Business Day.

(3)     Each Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice, as the case may be, must be delivered to the Lender by the Borrower on or prior to 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on a Business Day.

(4)     Each Drawdown, Conversion or Rollover must:

(a) in the case of Prime Rate Loans, be in a minimum principal amount of Cdn. $500,000 and increments of Cdn. $100,000;

(b) in the case of Base Rate Loans, be in a minimum principal amount of U.S. $500,000 and increments of U.S. $100,000;

(c) in the case of Banker’s Acceptances and CDOR Loans, be in a minimum face amount of Cdn. $1,000,000 and increments of Cdn. $100,000; and

(d) in the case of LIBOR Loans, be in a minimum principal amount of U.S. $1,000,000 and increments of U.S. $100,000.

(5) The provisions of this Section 2.06 do not apply to Overdraft Loans.

2.07 Drawdowns of Overdraft Loans

The Lender will make Overdraft Loans under the Credit Facility by honouring cheques drawn by the Borrower in Canadian Dollars or United States Dollars on the appropriate Borrower’s Account. Overdraft Loans will, for the purpose of determining the rate of interest payable thereon, be deemed to be Prime Rate Loans if made in Canadian Dollars or Base Rate Loans if made in United States Dollars.

2.08 General Account

The Borrower shall establish a current account with the Lender in each of Canadian currency and US currency (each a “General Account”) for the conduct of the Borrower’s day-to-day banking business. The Borrower authorizes the Lender daily or otherwise as and when determined by the Lender, to ascertain the balance of each General Account and:

(a) if such position is a debit balance the Lender may, subject to the revolving increment amount of $0.01 and minimum retained balance of zero specified in this Agreement, make available a Loan by way of Prime Rate Loans, or Base Rate Loans as applicable, under the Credit Facility; and

(b) if such position is a credit balance, where the Credit Facility is indicated to be Lender revolved, the Lender may, subject to the revolving increment amount and minimum retained balance specified in this Agreement, apply the amount of such credit balance or any part as a repayment of any Loans outstanding by way of Prime Rate Loans, or Base Rate Loans as applicable, under the Credit Facility.

2.09 Irrevocability

Each Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice and Rollover Notice given by the Borrower hereunder is irrevocable and will oblige the Borrower to take the action contemplated on the date specified therein.

2.10 Cancellation or Reduction of Credit Facility

The Borrower may, at any time, upon giving at least two Business Days’ prior notice to the Lender, cancel in full or, from time to time, reduce in part the Credit Facility; provided, however, that any reduction will be in a minimum amount of Cdn. $500,000 and increments of Cdn. $100,000. If as a result of such reduction the aggregate amount of Loans

outstanding under the Credit Facility exceeds the Commitment of the Lender thereunder, the Borrower will, upon notice from the Lender, repay Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. The Borrower will not be entitled to cancel the Credit Facility or reduce it in part if as a result thereof it would be required to repay Bankers’ Acceptances with a maturity date falling subsequent to the effective date of such cancellation or reduction, as the case may be.

2.11 Account of Record

The Lender will open and maintain books of account evidencing all Loans and all other amounts owing by the Borrower to the Lender hereunder. The Lender will enter in the foregoing accounts details of all amounts from time to time owing, paid or repaid by the Borrower hereunder. The information entered in the foregoing accounts will, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the obligations of the Borrower to the Lender hereunder with respect to all Loans and all other amounts owing by the Borrower to the Lender hereunder.

2.12 Termination of LIBOR Loans

If at any time the Lender determines, acting reasonably, (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that:

(a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR applicable to a LIBOR Loan;

(b) LIBOR does not adequately reflect the effective cost to the Lender of making or maintaining a LIBOR Loan; or

(c) it cannot readily obtain or retain funds in the London interbank market in order to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan;

then upon at least four Business Days’ written notice by the Lender to the Borrower,

(d) the right of the Borrower to request LIBOR Loans from the Lender shall be and remain suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrower that any condition causing such determination no longer exists; and

(e) if the Lender is prevented from maintaining a LIBOR Loan, the Borrower shall, at its option, either repay the relevant Drawdown to the Lender or convert the LIBOR Loan into other forms of Drawdown which are permitted by this Agreement, and the Borrower shall not be responsible for any loss or expense that the Lender incurs as a result, including breakage costs, notwithstanding that such repayment or conversion does not occur on the last day of an Interest Period.

If at any time the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in Sections 2.12(a) or (b) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Sections 1.1(1)(a) or (b) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Lender and the Borrower shall

endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for U.S. Dollar loans in Canada at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest agreed to by the Borrower and the Lender and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this Section 2.12, any Drawdown Notice, Rollover Notice or Conversion Notice that requests a LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective and such Drawdown shall be made as a Base Rate Loan; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

2.13 Increase of Credit Facility

The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, upon at least 30 days prior written notice to the Lender, request the Lender to increase its Commitment (the “Additional Commitment”) available under the Credit Facility by an additional amount up to Cdn. $30,000,000 . The right to increase the maximum principal amount of the Credit Facility by Additional Commitments shall be subject to the following conditions:

(a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the proposed increase in the Commitment and the Borrower shall have delivered to the Lender an officer’s certificate confirming the same and confirming (i) its corporate authorization to make such increase, (ii) the truth and accuracy of its representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and (iii) that no consents, approvals or authorizations are required for such increase (except as have been unconditionally obtained and are in full force and effect, unamended), each as at the effective date of such increase;

(b) the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender a pro forma Compliance Certificate evidencing its compliance with Section 9.02 after giving effect to the Additional Commitments;

(c) the Lender shall have received an acknowledgement executed by each Restricted Party in favour of the Lender confirming that each Loan Document to which the Restricted Party is a party continues to be enforceable in accordance with its terms;

(d) the Lender shall have received an opinion of counsel to the Borrower (in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, acting reasonably) confirming the enforceability of this Agreement (as amended by the increase in the Commitment by the Additional Commitments) and any Loan Documents executed and delivered in connection therewith by the Restricted Parties;

(e) the Lender shall have obtained internal approval to provide the Additional Commitments; and

(f) the Borrower and the Lender shall execute and deliver such documentation as is required by the Lender, acting reasonably, to effect the increase in question (including an amending agreement).

For greater certainty, the Lender shall not be required to increase the Commitment unless the Lender, in its discretion, agrees to do so.

2.14 Decrease of Credit Facility

In the event the Hoopp Landlord Consent, the GFP Landlord Consent, the Piret Landlord Consent or the SH7 Landlord Consent is not executed and delivered to the Lender on or before the Closing Date, the Commitment available under the Credit Facility shall be decreased to $40,000,000 until such time as the Hoopp Landlord Consent, the GFP Landlord Consent, the Piret Landlord Consent and the SH7 Landlord Consent are executed and delivered to the Lender. If any of the Hoopp Landlord Consent, the GFP Landlord Consent, the Piret Landlord Consent or the SH7 Landlord Consent are not executed and delivered to the Lender within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Lender and the Borrower shall in good faith negotiate such other terms and conditions as are acceptable to the Lender and the Borrower, both acting reasonably, to address the non-delivery of the Hoopp Landlord Consent, the GFP Landlord Consent, the Piret Landlord Consent and/or the SH7 Landlord Consent. For greater certainty, unless the Lender and the Borrower agree otherwise, the reduction of the Commitment available under the Credit Facility to $40,000,000 shall continue until the Hoopp Landlord Consent, the GFP Landlord Consent, the Piret Landlord Consent and the SH7 Landlord Consent are executed and delivered to the Lender or other arrangements satisfactory to the Lender are executed and delivered.

ARTICLE 4 - PAYMENTS OF INTEREST AND STANDBY FEES

4.01 Interest on Prime Rate Loans

The Borrower will pay interest on each Prime Rate Loan during each Interest Period applicable thereto in Canadian Dollars at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (a) the Prime Rate plus (b) the Prime Rate Margin in effect, in each case, from time to time during such Interest Period. Each determination by the Lender of the Prime Rate and the Prime Rate Margin applicable from time to time during an Interest Period will, in the absence of manifest error, be binding upon the Borrower. Such interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan for the period from and including the Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or preceding Interest Payment Date, as the case may be, for such Loan to but excluding such Interest Payment Date (or, if such Interest Payment Date follows the repayment of such Loan or

the Conversion of such Loan, to but excluding the date of such repayment or Conversion) and will be calculated on the principal amount of the Prime Rate Loan outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be. Changes in the Prime Rate and the Prime Rate Margin will cause an immediate adjustment of the interest rate applicable to such Loan without the necessity of any notice to the Borrower.

4.03 Interest on CDOR Loans

The Borrower will pay interest on each CDOR Loan during each Interest Period applicable thereto in Canadian Dollars at a rate per annum (expressed on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be) equal to the sum of (a) CDOR Rate plus (b) the CDOR Margin in effect, in each case, from time to time in such Interest Period.

Such interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan for the period from and including the Drawdown Date, Conversion Date, Rollover Date or preceding Interest Payment Date, as the case may be, for such Loan to but excluding such Interest Payment Date and will be calculated on the principal amount of the CDOR Loan outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed divided by 365 or 366, in the case of a leap year. Changes in the CDOR Margin will result in an immediate adjustment of the interest rate.

4.04 Interest on LIBOR Loans

The Borrower will pay interest on each LIBOR Loan during each Interest Period applicable thereto in United States Dollars at a rate per annum (expressed on the basis of a 360 day year) equal to the sum of (a) LIBOR plus (b) the LIBOR Margin in effect, in each case, from time to time in such Interest Period. Each determination by the Lender of LIBOR with respect to an Interest Period and the LIBOR Margin applicable from time to time during an Interest Period will, in the absence of manifest error, be binding upon the Borrower. Such interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan for the period from and including the Drawdown Date, Conversion Date, Rollover Date or preceding Interest

Payment Date, as the case may be, for such Loan to but excluding such Interest Payment Date and will be calculated on the principal amount of the LIBOR Loan outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed divided by 360. Changes in the LIBOR Margin will result in an immediate adjustment of the interest rate.

4.05 Adjustment of Applicable Margin

Upon the occurrence of, and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, the Applicable Margin will be the rate set forth in the table in the definition of Applicable Margin for the applicable type of Loan plus 2.00% per annum.

4.06 Standby Fees

The Borrower will pay to the Lender a standby fee in Canadian Dollars calculated at the rate per annum specified as the applicable “Standby Fee Rate” in the table contained in the definition of “Applicable Margin” on the daily unadvanced portion of the Credit Facility during each fiscal quarter. The standby fee will be determined daily beginning on the date hereof and will be calculated on the basis of a calendar year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and will be payable by the Borrower quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day following the end of each quarter.

4.07 Commitment Fee

In consideration of the Lender structuring the Credit Facility, the Borrower will pay to the Lender a commitment fee in an amount, and on the terms and conditions, agreed to in writing by the Lender (or any of its Affiliates) and the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates). All such written arrangements will constitute Loan Documents.

4.08 Maximum Rate of Interest

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Borrower will not be obliged to make any payment of interest or other amounts payable to the Lender hereunder in excess of the amount or rate that would be permitted by Applicable Law or would result in the receipt by the Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)). If the making of any payment by the Borrower would result in a payment being made that is in excess of such amount or rate, the Lender will determine the payment or payments that are to be reduced or refunded, as the case may be, so that such result does not occur.

ARTICLE 5 - BANKERS’ ACCEPTANCES AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

5.01 Bankers’ Acceptances

(1)     To facilitate the issuance of Bankers’ Acceptances pursuant to this Agreement, the Borrower irrevocably appoints the Lender as the attorney-in-fact of the Borrower to execute, endorse and deliver on behalf of the Borrower drafts in the forms prescribed by the Lender for bankers’ acceptances denominated in Canadian Dollars (each such executed draft that has not yet been accepted by the Lender being referred to as a “Draft”). Each Bankers’ Acceptance executed and delivered by the Lender on behalf of the Borrower as provided for in this Section 5.01 will be as binding upon the Borrower as if it had been executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Borrower.

(2)     Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.01(1), the Borrower will from time to time as required by the Lender provide to the Lender an appropriate number of Drafts drawn by the Borrower upon the Lender and payable to the clearing service designated by the Lender. The dates, maturity dates and face amounts of all Drafts delivered by the Borrower must be left blank, to be completed by the Lender as required by this Agreement. The Lender will exercise the same degree of care in the custody of such Draft as the Lender would exercise with respect to its own property kept at the place at which the Drafts are ordinarily kept by the Lender. The Lender, upon the written request of the Borrower, will promptly advise the Borrower of the number and designation, if any, of the Drafts then held by it. The Lender will not be liable for its failure to accept a Draft as required by this Agreement if the cause of such failure is, in whole or in part, due to the failure of the Borrower to provide on a timely basis appropriate Drafts as requested by the Lender.

(3)     The term of all Bankers’ Acceptances issued pursuant to any Drawdown Notice must be identical. Each Bankers’ Acceptance must be dated the Drawdown Date on which it is issued and will be for a term of one, two, three or six months, provided that in no event will the term of a Bankers’ Acceptance extend beyond the Final Maturity Date.

(4)     The Lender will complete and accept on the applicable Drawdown Date a Draft having a face amount (or Drafts having the aggregate face amount) and term specified in the Drawdown Notice. The Lender will purchase on the applicable Drawdown Date all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted by it, for an aggregate price equal to the BA Discount Proceeds of such Bankers’ Acceptances. The Lender is hereby authorized to release the Bankers’ Acceptance accepted by it to the applicable clearing service upon receipt of confirmation that such clearing service holds such Bankers’ Acceptance for the account of such the Lender.

(5)     The Borrower will pay to the Lender in respect of each Draft tendered by the Borrower to and accepted by the Lender as a condition of such acceptance or purchase, the BA Stamping Fee. The Lender is entitled to deduct and retain for its own account the amount of such fee from the amount to be deposited by the Lender to the applicable Borrower’s Account pursuant to this Agreement in respect of the sale of the related Bankers’ Acceptance.

(6)     On the date of maturity of each Bankers’ Acceptance, the Borrower will pay to the Lender in Canadian Dollars an amount equal to the face amount of such Bankers’ Acceptance. The obligation of the Borrower to make such payment will not be prejudiced by the fact that the holder of such Bankers’ Acceptance is the Lender. No days of grace may be claimed by the Borrower for the payment at maturity of any Bankers’ Acceptance. If the Borrower does not make such payment from the proceeds of a Loan obtained under this Agreement or otherwise, the amount of such required payment will be deemed to be a Prime Rate Loan to the Borrower.

(7)     The signature of any duly authorized officer of the Borrower on a Draft may be mechanically reproduced in facsimile, and all Drafts bearing such facsimile signature will be as binding upon the Borrower as if they had been manually signed by such officer, notwithstanding that such Person whose manual or facsimile signature appears on such Draft may no longer hold office at the date of such Draft or at the date of acceptance of such Draft by the Lender or at any time thereafter.

(8)     The Lender may at any time and from time to time, hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.

5.02 Letters of Credit

(1)     If the Borrower wishes to request that a Letter of Credit be issued under the Credit Facility, the Borrower will, at the time it delivers a Drawdown Notice pursuant to Section 2.06, execute and deliver to the Lender the Lender’s usual documentation relating to the issuance and administration of letters of credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of such documentation and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will prevail.

(2)     Each Letter of Credit will be in a form and on such terms as determined by the Lender in its sole and unfettered discretion.

(3)     Except as otherwise agree to by the Lender, no Letter of Credit may be issued for a period in excess of one year or beyond the Final Maturity Date.

(4)     If, at any time, a demand for payment is made under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower will be deemed to have requested a Prime Rate Loan in an amount equal to the sum of the Canadian Dollar Equivalent Amount demanded from the Lender under the Letter of Credit and all charges and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with payment under the Letter of Credit.

(5)     The Borrower hereby undertakes to indemnify and hold harmless the Lender from and against all liabilities and costs (including any costs incurred in funding any amount that falls due from the Lender under any Letter of Credit hereunder) to the extent that such liabilities and costs are not satisfied or compensated by the payment of interest on sums due pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any Letter of Credit except where such liabilities or costs result from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Person claiming indemnification.

(6)     The Lender will at all times be entitled, and is irrevocably authorized by the Borrower, to make any payment under a Letter of Credit for which a request or demand has been made in the required form without any further reference to the Borrower and any investigation or enquiry, need not concern itself with the propriety or validity of any claim made or purported to be made under the terms of such Letter of Credit (except as to compliance with the payment conditions of such Letters of Credit) and will be entitled to assume that any Person expressed in such Letter of Credit as being entitled to make demand or receive payments thereunder is so entitled. Accordingly, so long as a request or demand has been made as aforementioned, it will not be a defence to any demand made of the Borrower hereunder, nor will the obligations of the Borrower hereunder be impaired by the fact (if it be the case) that the Lender was or might have been justified in refusing payment, in whole or in part, of the amounts so claimed.

(7)     A certificate of the Lender as to the Canadian Dollar Equivalent Amounts paid by the Lender under any Letter of Credit will, in the absence of manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amount of such payment in any legal action or proceeding arising out of or in connection herewith.

(8)     Upon the issuance of the Letter of Credit or any extension thereof, the Borrower will pay to the Lender a fee at the Letter of Credit Fee Rate calculated on the amount of the Letter of Credit in Canadian Dollars on the basis of a calendar year for the number of days from the date of issuance or extension of the Letter of Credit until its expiry date.

(9)     The obligations of the Borrower with respect to Letters of Credit will be unconditional and irrevocable, and must be paid or performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or the applicable Letter of Credit;

(b) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to or actual departure from this Agreement;

(c) the existence of any claim, set-off, defence or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for which any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Lender or any other Person or entity, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or in any other agreements or any unrelated transactions;

(d) any document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect except for non-compliance with the payment conditions of such Letter of Credit; or

(e) any other circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

At the option of the Lender, the Uniform Customs and Practice for documentary credits, the International Standby Practices or the Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees, each published by the International Chamber of Commerce, current on the issue of each Letter of Credit will be binding on the Borrower and the Lender with respect to each such Letter of Credit. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of the beneficiary of each Letter of Credit with respect to such Letter of Credit. In furtherance of, and not in limitation of, the Lender’s rights and powers under such Uniform Customs and Practice or International Standby Practices, as applicable, but subject to all other provisions of this Section 5.02, it is agreed that the Lender will not have any liability for, and that the Borrower assumes all responsibility for: (a) the genuineness of any signature, (b) the form, validity, genuineness, falsification and legal effect of any draft, certification or other document required by a Letter of Credit or the authority of the Person signing the same, (c) the failure of any instrument to bear any reference or adequate reference to a Letter of Credit or the failure of any Person to note the amount of any instrument on the reverse of a Letter of Credit or to surrender a Letter of Credit, (d) the good faith or acts of any Person other than the Lender and its agents and employees, (e) the existence, form or sufficiency or breach or default under any agreement or instrument of any nature whatsoever, (f) any delay in giving or failure to give any notice, demand or protest, and (g) any error, omission, delay in or nondelivery of any notice or other communication, however sent. The determination as to whether the required documents are presented prior to the expiration of a Letter of Credit and whether such other documents are in proper and sufficient form for compliance with a Letter of Credit will be made by the Lender in its sole discretion, which determination will be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error. It is agreed that the Lender may honour, as complying with the terms of a Letter of Credit and this Agreement, any documents appearing to be in order and appearing to be signed or issued by the beneficiary thereof. Any action, inaction or omission on the part of the Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any related instrument or document, if in good faith and

in conformity with such laws, regulations or commercial or banking customs as the Lender may reasonably deem to be applicable, will be binding upon the Borrower, and will not affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Lender’s rights or powers hereunder or the Borrower’s obligation to make full reimbursement of amounts drawn under the Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.02(9), the Borrower will not be responsible, and no Person will be relieved of responsibility under this Article 5, for any gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Person.

ARTICLE 6 - REPAYMENT

6.01 Mandatory Repayment - Credit Facility

The Borrower will repay in full the outstanding principal amount of all Loans and other Obligations under the Credit Facility on or before the then Current Final Maturity Date.

6.02 Excess Over the Maximum Amounts

If the Lender determines that on any day as a result of currency fluctuations the aggregate of (a) Loans in Canadian Dollars then outstanding under the Credit Facility, and (b) the Equivalent Amount in Canadian Dollars of Loans in United States Dollars then outstanding under the Credit Facility on such day exceeds the aggregate Commitment then in effect in respect of the Credit Facility, the Lender will notify the Borrower that such an event has occurred, and the Borrower will within three Business Days following receipt of such notice, (i) repay Loans under the Credit Facility in an amount equal to such excess, or (ii) deposit with the Lender cash or Cash Equivalents in the amount of such excess, provided that if it is determined on any subsequent day that the amount of the deposited amounts exceeds the amount of such excess, the Borrower may withdraw the amount by which such excess has been reduced.

6.03 Repayment Compensation

(1)      If the Borrower by reason of any repayment hereunder, whether mandatory or voluntary, (a) pays any CDOR Loans or any LIBOR Loans prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower will compensate the Lender for any loss or expense that the Lender incurs as a result thereof, including any breakage costs, or (b) is obliged to pay any Bankers’ Acceptances prior to their respective maturity dates or discharges its obligation to the Lender in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit, the Borrower will deposit collateral with the Lender equal to the full face amount at maturity of such Bankers’ Acceptances or 103% of the undrawn face amount of such Letters of Credit, as applicable.

ARTICLE 7 - PLACE AND APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS

7.01 Place of Payment of Principal, Interest and Fees

All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts to be made by the Borrower to the Lender pursuant to this Agreement will be made in the currency in which a Loan is outstanding for value on the day such amount is due or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the Business Day next following with interest, by deposit or transfer thereof to the account designated from time to time in writing by the Lender at the Lending Office, or at such other place as the Borrower and the Lender may from time to time agree.

7.02 Netting of Payments

If, on any date, amounts would be due and payable under this Agreement in the same currency by a Restricted Party to the Lender, and by the Lender to a Restricted Party, then, on such date, the obligations of each such party to make payment of any such amount will be automatically satisfied and discharged if the amounts payable are the same. If the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by a Restricted Party to the Lender exceeds the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by the Lender to a Restricted Party or vice versa, such obligations will be replaced by an obligation upon whichever of the Restricted Party or the Lender would have had to pay the larger aggregate amount, to pay to the other the excess of the larger aggregate amount over the smaller aggregate amount. For greater certainty, prior to acceleration of repayment pursuant to Section 11.02, this Section 7.02 will not permit the Lender to exercise a right of set-off, combination or similar right against any amount which a Restricted Party may have on deposit with the Lender in respect of any amount to which netting is to apply pursuant to this Section 7.02, but will apply only to determine the net amount to be payable by the Lender to a Restricted Party, or by a Restricted Party to the Lender.

In the event that the Lender is not called upon to make full payment on any outstanding Letter of Credit prior to its expiry date, the deposit amount, or any part thereof that has not been paid out, that is attributable to such Letter of Credit, will, so long as no Event of Default then exists, be returned to the Borrower, and if an Event of Default exists shall be applied in accordance with Section 11.07.

11.04 Remedies Cumulative

For greater certainty, it is expressly understood that the respective rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document or instrument executed pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law or by equity; and any single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will not be deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy or other rights or remedies to which the Lender may be lawfully entitled in connection with such default or breach.

11.05 Perform Obligations

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and if any Restricted Party has failed to perform any of its covenants or agreements in the Loan Documents, the Lender, may, but will be under no obligation to, perform any such covenants or agreements in any manner deemed fit by the Lender without thereby waiving any rights to enforce the Loan Documents. The reasonable expenses (including any legal costs) paid by the Lender in respect of the foregoing will be an Obligation and will be secured by the Security.

11.06 Third Parties

It is not necessary for any Person dealing with the Lender to inquire whether the Security has become enforceable, or whether the powers that the Lender is purporting to exercise may be exercised, or whether any Obligations remain outstanding upon the security thereof, or as to the necessity or expediency of the stipulations and conditions subject to which any sale is to be made, or otherwise as to the propriety or regularity of any sale or other disposition or any other dealing with the collateral charged by such Security or any part thereof.

11.07 Application of Payments

All payments made by the Borrower hereunder or received from proceeds of the enforcement or realization of any Security will be applied to amounts due under the Obligations, as determined by the Lender.

11.08 Right of Set-off

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrower, any other Restricted Party or any other Person, to set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, matured or unmatured, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by the Lender or any such

Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Restricted Party against any and all of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not the Lender has made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Lender or any such Affiliate different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 11.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off, consolidation of accounts and bankers’ lien) that the Lender or its Affiliates may have. The Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application, but the failure to give such notice will not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

ARTICLE 12 – CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES AND INDEMNITIES

12.01 Increased Costs

(b) subject the Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, or any Loan or Letter of Credit, or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender in respect thereof, except for (i) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 12.02 and (ii) the imposition, or any change in the rate, of any Excluded Tax payable by the Lender; or

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

(3)      A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 12.01(1) or 12.01(2), including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts, that is delivered to the Borrower will be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower will pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(4)      Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 12.01 will not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation, except that the Borrower will not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to this Section 12.01 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, in which case the 180-day period referred to above will be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

12.02 Taxes

(1)      If any Restricted Party or the Lender is required by Applicable Law to deduct or pay any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) in respect of any payment by or on account of any obligation of an Restricted Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document, then (i) the sum payable will be increased, and paid as additional interest, by that Restricted Party when payable as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and payments (including deductions and payments applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or payments been required, (ii) the Restricted Party will make any such deductions required to be made by it under Applicable Law and (iii) the Restricted Party will pay when due the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(2)      Without limiting the provisions of Section 12.02(1), the Borrower will timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(3)      Without duplication of Section 12.01(1) or 12.01(2) the Borrower will indemnify the Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the Lender will be conclusive absent manifest error.

(4)      As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by an Restricted Party to a Governmental Authority, the Restricted Party will deliver to the Lender 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 Lender.

(5)      If the Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect

to which an Restricted Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 12.02 or that, because of the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes, it has benefited from a reduction in Excluded Taxes otherwise payable by it, it will pay to the Borrower or other Restricted Party, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund or reduction (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or Restricted Party under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or reduction), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender and without interest (other than any net after-Tax interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Borrower or other Restricted Party as applicable, upon the request of the Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or other Restricted Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender if the Lender is required to repay such refund or reduction to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph will not be construed to require the Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person, to arrange its affairs in any particular manner or to claim any available refund or reduction.

12.03 Illegality

If the Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Lender to make or maintain any Loan (or to maintain its obligation to make any Loan), or to issue or maintain any Letter of Credit (or to maintain its obligation to issue any Letter of Credit), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any particular rate, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lender with respect to the activity that is unlawful will be suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower will, upon demand from the Lender, prepay or, if Conversion would avoid the activity that is unlawful, convert any Loans, or take any necessary steps with respect to any Letter of Credit in order to avoid the activity that is unlawful. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower will also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

12.04 Inability to Determine Rates, Etc.

If the Lender determines that for any reason a market for bankers’ acceptances does not exist at any time or the Lender cannot for other reasons, after reasonable efforts, readily sell bankers’ acceptances or perform its other obligations under this Agreement with respect to Bankers’ Acceptances, the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower. Thereafter, the Borrower’s right to request the acceptance of Drafts and CDOR Loans will be and remain suspended until the Lender determines and notifies the Borrower that the condition causing such determination no longer exists.

If the Lender determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the CDOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Bankers’ Acceptance or CDOR Loan, or that the CDOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Bankers’ Acceptance or CDOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding such Loan, the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to accept Bankers’ Acceptances or make or maintain CDOR Loans will be suspended until the Lender revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending Drawdown Notice as it relates to a Drawdown or Rollover of, or Conversion to, a Bankers’ Acceptance or a

CDOR Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have substituted in such Drawdown Notice a Drawdown of or Conversion to Prime Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

If the Lender determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan, or that LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding such Loan, the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Loans will be suspended until the Lender revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending Drawdown Notice as it relates to a Drawdown or Rollover of, or Conversion to, a LIBOR Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have substituted in such Drawdown Notice a Drawdown of or Conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

12.05 Indemnity by the Borrower

(1)      The Borrower will indemnify the Lender and each Related Party of any the Lender (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Restricted Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance or non-performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation or non-consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any Default or Event of Default, (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Substance on or from any property owned or operated by any Restricted Party, or any liability under any Environmental Law related in any way to any Restricted Party, or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by a Restricted Party and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity will not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Restricted Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Restricted Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favour on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, nor will an indemnity be available in respect of matters specifically addressed in Sections 12.01, 12.02 or 14.01.

(2)      To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Restricted Party will not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for indirect, consequential, punitive, aggravated or exemplary damages (as opposed to direct damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby (or any breach thereof), the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee will be liable for any damages arising from the use by

unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(3)      All amounts due under Section 12.05(1) will be payable promptly after demand therefor. A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts owing to the Lender or Related Party, as the case may be, as specified in Section 12.05(1), including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts, that is delivered to the Borrower will be conclusive absent manifest error.

ARTICLE 13 - GUARANTEE

13.01 Guarantees and Indemnity

(1)      Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(2)      If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations are not duly paid and are not recoverable under Section 13.01(1) for any reason whatsoever, each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, will, as a separate and distinct obligation, indemnify and save harmless the Lender and each of them from and against any losses resulting from the failure of any Restricted Party to pay the Guaranteed Obligations.

(3)      If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations are not duly paid and are not recoverable under Section 13.01(1) or the Lender is not indemnified under Section 13.01(2), in each case, for any reason whatsoever, the Guaranteed Obligations will be recoverable jointly and severally from each of the Guarantors as primary obligor.

13.02 Obligations Absolute

The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is absolute and unconditional and is not affected by:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(b) any impossibility, impracticability, frustration of purpose, illegality, force majeure or act of Governmental Authority;

(c) the bankruptcy, winding up, liquidation, dissolution, arrangement, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting any Restricted Party or any other Person, the amalgamation of or any change in the status, function, control or ownership of any Restricted Party, any Guarantor or any other Person;

(d) any lack or limitation of power, incapacity or disability on the part of any Restricted Party or of the directors, partners or agents thereof or any other irregularity, defect or informality on the part of any Restricted Party in its Guaranteed Obligations; or

(e) any other law, regulation or other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a discharge of, any Restricted Party in respect of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations.

13.03 No Release

The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is not released, discharged, limited or in any way affected by anything done, suffered or permitted by the Lender or any other Person in connection with any duties or liabilities of any Restricted Party to the Lender or any Security, including any loss of or in respect of any Security. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and without releasing, discharging, limiting or otherwise affecting in whole or in part the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, without obtaining the consent of or giving notice to any Guarantor, the Lender may:

(a) discontinue, reduce, increase or otherwise vary the credit of the Borrower in any manner whatsoever;

(b) make any change in the time, manner or place of payment under, or in any other term of, any Loan Document or the failure on the part of any Restricted Party to carry out any of its obligations under any Loan Document;

(c) grant time, renewals, extensions, indulgences, releases and discharges to any Restricted Party;

(d) take or abstain from taking or enforcing the Security or from perfecting Security;

(e) accept compromises from any Restricted Party;

(f) apply all money at any time received from any Restricted Party or from the Security upon such part of the Obligations as the Lender may see fit or change any such application in whole or in part from time to time as each of them may see fit; and

(g) otherwise deal with each Restricted Party and all other Persons and the Security as the Lender may see fit.

13.04 No Exhaustion of Remedies

The Lender is not bound or obligated to exhaust its recourse against any Restricted Party or other Person or any Security it may hold, or take any other action before being entitled to demand payment from any Guarantor hereunder.

13.05 Prima facie Evidence

Any account settled or stated in writing by or between the Lender and each Restricted Party will be, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence that the balance or amount thereof appearing due to the Lender is so due.

13.06 No Set-Off

In any claim by the Lender against any Guarantor, such Guarantor may not assert any set-off or counterclaim that either such Guarantor or any other Restricted Party may have against the Lender.

13.07 Continuing Guarantee

The Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder will constitute and be continuing obligations and will apply to and guarantee and secure any ultimate balance due or remaining due to the Lender and will not be considered as wholly or partially satisfied by the payment or liquidation at any time of any sum of money for the time being due or remaining unpaid to any such Person. The Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder will continue to be effective even if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rendered unenforceable or is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the recipient of such payment upon the occurrence of any action or event including the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Restricted Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

13.08 Waivers by Guarantors

Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentation, demand, protest and any notice, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against such Guarantor, any other Restricted Party or any other Person.

13.09 Demand

Each Guarantor will make payment to the Lender of the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable by it hereunder forthwith after demand therefor is made to it. Each Guarantor will also make payment to the Lender of all costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in enforcing the provisions of this Article 13.

13.10 Interest

Each Guarantor will pay interest to the Lender at the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum for amounts payable in Canadian Dollars and at the Base Rate plus 2% per annum for amounts payable in United States Dollars on the unpaid portion of all amounts payable by such Guarantor hereunder, such interest to accrue from and including the date of demand on the Guarantor, and will be compounded monthly.

13.11 Subrogation; Contribution

No Guarantor will be entitled to subrogation or to contribution from any Restricted Party by reason of any payment hereunder until indefeasible payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations of all Guarantors, and the termination of the Commitments. Thereafter, the Lender, at each Guarantor’s request and expense, will execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation and warranty, except as to the amount owing, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations and any Security held therefor resulting from such payment by such Guarantors.

13.12 Stay of Acceleration

If acceleration of the payment of any Guaranteed Obligations payable by any Guarantor is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Guarantor or otherwise, all such Guaranteed Obligations otherwise subject to acceleration under the provisions of any Loan Document will nonetheless be payable by each other Guarantor herewith in accordance with the terms hereof.

13.13 Limitation on Obligations of Subsidiary Guarantors

The Obligation under this Article 13 of each Guarantor that is a Subsidiary of the Borrower and that is subject to the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code will be limited to an aggregate amount that is equal to the largest amount that would not render the obligations of such Guarantor subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of Applicable Law.

ARTICLE 14 - GENERAL

14.01 Costs and Expenses

The Borrower will pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Lender’s Counsel, in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Lender’s Counsel, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 14.01, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

14.02 Governing Law, Jurisdiction, Etc.

(1)      This Agreement and each other Loan Document (unless otherwise specified in such Loan Document) will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Alberta and the laws of Canada applicable therein.

(2)      Each Restricted Party irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Alberta and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such court. Each Restricted Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding will be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document will affect any right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any

other Loan Document against any Restricted Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(3)      Each Restricted Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 14.02(2). Each Restricted Party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

14.03 Judgment Currency

(1)      If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgement against a Restricted Party in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 14.03 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in Canadian Dollars or United States Dollars under this Agreement, the conversion will be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding:

(a) the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date; or

(b) the date on which the judgement is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 14.03(1)(b) being hereinafter in this Section 14.03 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(2)      If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 14.03(1)(b), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrower or other Restricted Party will pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of Canadian Dollars or United States Dollars, as the case may be, which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgement or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

(3)      Any amount due from a Restricted Party under the provisions of Section 14.03(2) will be due as a separate debt and will not be affected by judgement being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement.

(4)      The term “rate of exchange” in this Section 14.03 means:

(a) for a conversion of Canadian Dollars to the Judgment Currency, the reciprocal of the official rate of exchange published by the Bank of Canada at 4:30 pm (Toronto time) for the day prior to the date in question for the conversion of the Judgment Currency to Canadian Dollars;

(b) for a conversion of United States Dollars to the Judgment Currency when the Judgment Currency is Canadian Dollars, the official rate of exchange published

by the Bank of Canada at 4:30 pm (Toronto time) for the day prior to the date in question for the conversion of United States Dollars to Canadian Dollars;

(c) for a conversion of United States Dollars to the Judgment Currency when the Judgment Currency is not Canadian Dollars, the effective rate obtained when a given amount of United States Dollars is converted to Canadian Dollars at the rate determined pursuant to Section 14.03(4)(b) and the result thereof is then converted to the Judgment Currency pursuant to Section 14.03(4)(a); or

(d) if a required rate is not so published by the Bank of Canada for any such date, the spot rate quoted by the Lender at approximately noon (Toronto time) on that date in accordance with its normal practice for the applicable currency conversion in the wholesale market.

14.04 Confidentiality

(1)      The Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined in Section 14.04(2) below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority), (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 14.04(1), to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative, credit-linked note or similar transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 14.04(1) or (y) becomes available to the Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Restricted Party who, to the knowledge of the Lender, was not under an obligation of confidentiality to the applicable Restricted Party at the time such Confidential Information was provided to the Lender.

(2)      For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received in connection with this Agreement from any Restricted Party relating to any Restricted Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to such receipt. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in Section 14.04(1) will be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

14.05 Benefit and Burden of Agreement

This Agreement will be binding upon the Borrower and each other Restricted Party and their respective successors. This Agreement will enure to the benefit of and will be binding upon the Lender and its successors and assigns.

14.06 No Assignment by the Borrower

The rights and benefits of the Borrower hereunder may not be assigned by the Borrower.

14.07 Assignment or Participation by Lender

(1)      The rights, benefits and obligations of the Lender under or in respect of this Agreement (the “Rights”) may, in whole or in part (subject to, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, a minimum amount of $5,000,000), be assigned (“Assign”, “Assigned” or an “Assignment”) or participated (“Participated” or a “Participation”) by the Lender with one or more Persons (each an “Assignee” or a “Participant”, as the case may be), subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Lender will not Assign to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Lender, a Schedule I, Schedule II or Schedule III bank as identified in the Bank Act (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Rights may, in whole or in part, be Participated or Assigned by the Lender with one or more Participants or Assignees without notice to or the consent of the Borrower if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. An Assignment or Participation hereunder that requires the consent of the Borrower will become effective upon receipt by the Lender of the written consent of the Borrower. An Assignment or Participation that does not require the consent of or notice to the Borrower will become effective upon execution of the applicable documentation by the Lender, as applicable, and the Participant or Assignee, as the case may be. The Borrower will execute all such further documentation as the Lender may request with respect to any Assignment or Participation and any prospective Assignee will execute such documentation as the Borrower may reasonably request for the purpose of ensuring that the Assignee is bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(2)      Any Assignee of Rights will be and be treated in respect of such Rights as if it were the Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, will be entitled to the benefit hereof, and will be subject to the obligations of the Lender in respect of such Rights, to the same extent as if it were an original party in respect of the Rights and the Lender assigning such Rights will be released and discharged from its obligations hereunder in respect of such Rights. To the extent that the Rights are the subject of a Participation, all references in this Agreement to the Lender will, with respect to such Rights that are subject to the Participation, continue to be construed as a reference to the Lender, and the Borrower will be entitled to deal with the Lender as if it were the sole owner of the Rights and the Lender will not be released from obligations hereunder by virtue of the Participation. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Lender will be entitled, in its own name, to enforce for the benefit of, or as agent for, any Participants, any and all rights, claims and interests of such Participants, in respect of the Rights and that Participants will not be entitled to demand payment or exercise any other right or remedy pursuant hereto.

(3)      For the purposes of any Assignment or Participation hereunder, the Lender may disclose on a confidential basis to a potential Assignee or Participant such information about the Borrower as the Lender may see fit, provided that such potential Assignee or Participant has executed a confidentiality agreement in favour of the Lender.

14.08 Notices

Any demand, notice or other communication to be given in connection with this Agreement must be given in writing and will be given by personal delivery, by registered mail or by electronic means of communication addressed to the recipient at the address or telecopier

number set forth on the signature pages to this Agreement, or to such other street address, individual or electronic communication number or address as may be designated by notice given by either party to the other. Any demand, notice or other communication given by personal delivery will be conclusively deemed to have been given on the day of actual delivery thereof or, if given by registered mail, on the third Business Day following the deposit thereof in the mail or, if given by electronic communication, on the day of transmittal thereof if given during the normal business hours of the recipient and on the Business Day during which such normal business hours next occur if not given during such hours on any day. If the party giving any demand, notice or other communication knows or ought reasonably to know of any difficulties with the postal system that might affect the delivery of mail, any such demand, notice or other communication may not be mailed but must be given by personal delivery or by electronic communication.

14.09 Effect of Assignment

For greater certainty, an assignment by the Lender of its rights hereunder will not constitute a repayment, discharge, rescission, extinguishment or novation of any Loan or interest therein, and the obligations so assigned shall continue to be the same obligations and not new obligations.

14.10 Survival

The provisions of Section 12.05 and 14.01 will survive the repayment of all Loans and all obligations with respect to Letters of Credit, whether on account of principal, interest or fees, and the termination of this Agreement, unless a specific release of such provisions by the Lender is delivered to the Borrower.

14.11 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either of the parties.

14.12 Further Assurances

Each Restricted Party and the Lender will promptly cure any default by it in the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or of any agreements provided for hereunder to which it is a party. Each Restricted Party, at its expense, will promptly execute and deliver to the Lender, upon request by the Lender, all such other and further documents, agreements, opinions, certificates and instruments in compliance with, or accomplishment of the covenants and agreements of such Restricted Party hereunder or more fully to state the obligations of such Restricted Party as set forth herein or to make any recording, file any notice or obtain any consent, all as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection therewith.

14.13 Amendments and Waivers

No amendment to this Agreement will be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by the Borrower and the Lender. No waiver of any breach of any

provision of this Agreement and no consent required hereunder will be effective or binding unless made in writing and signed by the party purporting to give the same. Unless otherwise provided, any waiver or consent given hereunder will be limited to the specific breach waived or matter consented to, as the case may be, and may be subject to such conditions as the party giving such waiver or consent considers appropriate.
