  (a)   the Collateral Agent may grant extensions of time and other indulgences, take and give up security, accept compositions, grant releases and discharges and otherwise deal with the Corporation and, if an Enforcement Event has occurred and is continuing, debtors of the Corporation, sureties and others, and with the Collateral or other security as the Collateral Agent may see fit without prejudice to the liability of the Corporation and the rights of the Secured Parties under this Agreement;
 
  (b)   if the Corporation amalgamates with one or more corporations, the Obligations and the Security Interest created under this Agreement shall continue and shall extend to the present and future undertaking, property and assets of the amalgamated corporation, as if the amalgamated corporation had executed this Agreement as the Corporation;
 
  (c)   nothing in this Agreement shall obligate any Secured Party to make any loan or accommodation to the Corporation or extend the time for payment or satisfaction of the Obligations;
 
  (d)   any failure by the Collateral Agent to exercise any right, power or remedy in this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver thereof and no single or partial exercise by the Collateral Agent of any right, power or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of another right, power or remedy for the enforcement of this Agreement or the payment in full of the Obligations;
 
  (e)   no amendment or waiver of or supplement to any provision of this Agreement shall in any event be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given;
 
  (f)   no waiver or act or omission of the Secured Parties shall extend to or be taken in any manner whatsoever to affect any subsequent breach by the Corporation or the rights resulting therefrom;
 
  (g)   the Collateral Agent may assign and/or transfer all or part of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any replacement collateral agent appointed in accordance with the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement;

  (i)   subject to Section 4.05 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent permitted by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein), each of the Collateral Agent and any receiver shall have full power to delegate (either generally or specifically) the powers, authorities and

- 14 -


 

      discretions conferred on it by this Agreement (including the power of attorney) on such terms and conditions as it shall see fit which delegation shall not preclude either the subsequent exercise, any subsequent delegation or any revocation of such power, authority or discretion by the Collateral Agent or the receiver itself;
  (j)   the Corporation shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (acting in accordance with the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement);
 
  (k)   all rights of the Secured Parties under this Agreement shall enure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns and all obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement shall bind the Corporation, its successors and permitted assigns;
 
  (l)   this Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein and, without prejudice to the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce this Agreement in any other proper jurisdiction, the Corporation hereby irrevocably attorns and submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario in any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement;
 
  (m)   any notice or communication to be given under this Agreement to the Corporation or the Collateral Agent shall be effective if given in accordance with the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement;
 
  (n)   the Corporation agrees that value has been given by the Secured Parties and that the Security Interest created under this Agreement is intended to attach (a) with respect to the Collateral which is in existence as of the date hereof, upon execution of this Agreement, and (b) with respect to the Collateral which comes into existence after the date hereof, upon the Corporation acquiring any rights therein and in each case the parties do not intend to postpone the attachment of the Security Interest created by this Agreement;
 
  (o)   any provision of this Agreement which is or becomes prohibited or unenforceable in any relevant jurisdiction shall not invalidate or impair the remaining provisions hereof which shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be deemed severable from such prohibited or unenforceable provision and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any such jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction; and
 
  (p)   the remedies under this Agreement may be exercised from time to time separately or in combination and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights however created.
24.   If any Enforcement Event has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent will not be liable or responsible for any failure to seize, collect, realize, or obtain payment with respect to the Collateral and is not bound to institute proceedings or to take other steps for the purpose of seizing, collecting, realizing or obtaining possession or payment with

- 15 -


 

    respect to the Collateral or for the purpose of preserving any rights of the Collateral Agent, the Corporation or any other person, in respect of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent will not be liable or responsible for any loss occasioned by any sale or other dealing with the Collateral or by the retention of or failure to sell or otherwise deal with the Collateral or bound to protect the Collateral from depreciating in value or becoming worthless.
25.   The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers. Except for reasonable care (discussed in Section 26 below) of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or responsibility for:
  (a)   ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have notice or knowledge of such matters, or
 
  (b)   taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.
26.   The Collateral Agent is required to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its possession; provided, however, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral if it exercises the same degree of care as it would exercise with respect to its own property kept at the same place or if it takes such action for that purpose as the Corporation requests in writing at times but failure of the Collateral Agent to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care.
 
27.   The security constituted by this Agreement shall be released, reassigned, re-transferred and cancelled (as applicable):
  (a)   by the Collateral Agent (acting on the instructions of the Applicable Representative) at the request and cost of the Corporation, upon the Secured Obligations being irrevocably paid or discharged in full and none of the Secured Parties being under any further actual or contingent obligation to make advances or provide other financial accommodation to the Corporation or any other person under any of the Loan Documents; or
 
  (b)   in accordance with, and to the extent required by, the Intercreditor Arrangements (to the extent it is possible to give effect to such arrangements under the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein).
28.   If the Corporation disposes of any Collateral and that disposal is permitted by the Principal Finance Documents, such Collateral shall, unless an Enforcement Event has occurred and is continuing, be automatically released, re-assigned, re-transferred and cancelled (as applicable) from the Security Interest created under this Agreement with effect from the day of such disposal and the Collateral Agent (if so instructed by the

- 16 -


 

    Applicable Representative and at the expense and cost of the Corporation) shall do all such acts which are reasonably requested by the Corporation in order to release, re-assign, re-transfer and cancel (as applicable) the relevant Collateral from the Security Interest created under this Agreement. Any or all of the Collateral shall also be released, re-assigned, re-transferred and cancelled (as applicable) in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the Intercreditor Arrangements.
29.   If any payment received or recovered by any Secured Party, a receiver, or any other person on behalf of any of them is or is reasonably likely to be avoided by law or required to be repaid to a liquidator or similar official:
  (a)   such payment shall be deemed not to have affected or discharged the liability of the Corporation under this Agreement or the Security Interest given by the Corporation in favour of the Collateral Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Secured Party and, the Collateral Agent, each Secured Party and the Corporation shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be restored to the position in which each would have been if such payment had not been received or recovered; and
 
  (b)   the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be entitled to exercise all its rights which it would have been entitled to exercise if such payment had not been received or recovered,
      notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent may have signed a release pursuant to Section 27 or 28.
30.   In connection with any termination or release pursuant to Section 27 or 28 above, the Collateral Agent shall promptly (at the expense and cost of the Corporation) execute and deliver to the Corporation all releases and PPSA discharge statements and similar documents that the Corporation shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 30 shall be without recourse to or representation or warranty by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party. The Corporation shall reimburse the Collateral Agent promptly following demand for all reasonable costs and out of pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and expenses of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 30.
 
31.   Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.
 
32.   The Corporation acknowledges receipt of a copy of this Agreement.
 
33.   This Agreement may be signed in counterparts (including counterparts signed by facsimile transmission) and each of such counterparts shall constitute an original document and such counterparts, taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.
 
34.   None of the Collateral Agent, its nominee(s) or any receiver or Delegate appointed pursuant to this Agreement shall be liable by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by

- 17 -


 

    this Agreement or (b) any neglect or default in connection with the Collateral or (c) the taking possession or realisation of all or any part of the Collateral, except to the extent provided in the Principal Finance Documents.
35.   To the extent set out in Section 4.11 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Corporation shall, notwithstanding any release or discharge of all or any part of the security, indemnify the Collateral Agent, its agents, attorneys, nominee(s), any Delegate and any receiver against any action, proceeding, claims, losses, liabilities, expenses, demands, taxes, and costs which it may sustain as a consequence of any breach by the Corporation of the provisions of this Agreement, the exercise or purported exercise of any of the rights and powers conferred on them by this Agreement or otherwise relating to the Collateral.
