Exhibit 4.2

OPEN TEXT CORPORATION

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

As Amended September 14, 2020

Article 1 - Purpose

This amended Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to encourage share ownership by all eligible employees of Open Text Corporation (the “Company”), a corporation governed by the laws of Canada, and each of its Participating Subsidiaries, so that they may participate in any future growth of the Company by acquiring or increasing their interest in common shares of the Company. The Plan is designed to encourage eligible employees to remain in the employ of the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries. The Plan is intended to constitute an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

Article 2 - Definitions

The term “Affiliate” means any entity, other than a Subsidiary, that (a) directly or indirectly, is controlled by, controls or is under common control with, the Company, or (b) any entity in which the Company has a significant equity interest, in either case as determined by the Committee, whether now or hereafter existing.

The term “applicable law” means any applicable law, domestic or foreign, including without limitation, applicable securities legislation, together with all regulations, rules, policy statements, rulings, notices, orders or other instruments thereunder and the rules of each securities exchange or quotation system on which securities of the Company are listed and posted for trading.

The term “Average Market Price” on any date means (i) the weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the trading day immediately preceding such day on the securities exchange or quotation system on which the greatest volume of trading of the Common Shares in that period has occurred, if the Common Shares are then traded on such securities exchange or quotation system; or (ii) the average of the closing bid and asked prices last quoted on the trading day immediately preceding such day by an established quotation service for over-the-counter securities, if the Common Shares are not traded on a national securities exchange or quotation system; or (iii) if the Common Shares are not publicly traded, the fair market value of the Common Shares on such date as determined by the Committee after taking into consideration all factors which it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, recent sale and offer prices of the Common Shares in private transactions negotiated at arm’s length.

The term “business day” means a day on which there is trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”) or the securities exchange, including the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), on which the greatest volume of trading of the Common Shares in the respective period has occurred; and if neither is applicable, a day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or statutory holiday in the Province of Ontario.

The term “Subsidiary” means a “subsidiary corporation” with respect to the Company, as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code.

Article 3 - Administration of the Plan

The Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). Acts by a majority of the Committee, or acts reduced to or approved in writing by a majority of the members of the Committee, shall be the valid acts of the Committee. For any period during which no such committee is in existence, “Committee” shall mean the Board and all authority and responsibility assigned to the Committee under the Plan shall be exercised, if at all, by the Board, and the term “Committee” wherever used herein shall be deemed to mean the Board.

The Committee has authority at any time to: (i) adopt, alter and repeal such rules, guidelines and practices for the administration of the Plan and for its own acts and proceedings as it shall deem advisable (including, without limitation, to adopt such procedures and sub-plans as are necessary or appropriate to permit the participation in the Plan by employees who are non-residents of Canada or employed outside of Canada); (ii) interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan; (iii) make all determinations it deems advisable for the administration of the Plan; (iv) designate separate Offerings under the Plan; (v) decide all disputes arising in connection with the Plan; and (vi) otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. All interpretations and decisions of the

Committee shall be binding on all persons, including the Company and the Participants, unless otherwise determined by the Board. No member of the Board, the Committee or individual exercising administrative authority with respect to the Plan shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option granted hereunder.

Article 4 - Eligible Employees

All individuals classified as employees on the payroll records of the Company and each Participating Subsidiary are eligible to participate in any one or more of the Purchase Periods under the Plan, provided that as of the first business day of the applicable Purchase Period they are customarily employed by the Company or a Participating Subsidiary for more than twenty (20) hours a week, or any lesser number of hours per week established by the Committee (if required under applicable local law) for purposes of any separate Offering. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, individuals who are not classified as employees of the Company or a Participating Subsidiary for purposes of the Company’s or applicable Participating Subsidiary’s payroll system are not considered to be eligible employees of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary and shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan. Eligible employees who are Participants on the first business day of any Purchase Period shall receive their options as of such day. Individuals who become Participants after any date on which options are granted under the Plan shall be granted options on the first day of the next succeeding Purchase Period on which options are granted to eligible employees under the Plan.

In any event, no employee may be granted an option under the Plan if such employee, immediately after the option was granted, would be treated as owning shares possessing five percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of shares of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary. For purposes of determining ownership under this paragraph, the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply, and shares of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary which the employee may purchase under outstanding options shall be treated as shares owned by the employee.

Article 5 - Shares Subject to the Plan

The shares subject to the options under the Plan shall be made available from either authorized but unissued common shares in the capital of the Company (the “Common Shares”), or from Common Shares purchased on the open market or otherwise by the trustee of a trust upon the direction of the Committee, or by an agent or broker designated by an administrator of the Plan appointed by the Committee. The aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issued under the Plan is 8,000,000, subject to adjustment as provided in Article 14. If any option granted under the Plan shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full or shall cease for any reason to be exercisable in whole or in part, the unpurchased Common Shares subject thereto shall again be available under the Plan.

The maximum number of Common Shares of the Company issued to Insiders within any one year period, or issuable to Insiders at any time, under all security based compensation arrangements, shall not exceed ten percent of the number of the then issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company.

Article 6 - Purchase Period

Purchase periods during which payroll deductions will be accumulated under the Plan shall consist of the six month periods commencing on January 1 and July 1, and ending on June 30 and December 31 of each calendar year, provided that the Committee may establish different purchase periods, from time to time, in advance of their commencement having a duration of three months to twenty-four months (each, a “Purchase Period” and collectively, the “Purchase Periods”). Contributions under the Plan shall be made by way of payroll deductions in accordance with Article 10.

Article 7 - Grant of Share Options

Twice a year, or as otherwise determined by the Committee, on the first business day of a Purchase Period, the Company will grant to each eligible employee who is then a Participant in the Plan an option exercisable on the last day of such Purchase Period (the “Purchase Date”), to purchase, at the Option Price hereinafter provided for, a maximum of 100,000 Common Shares in accordance with this Plan on the condition that such employee remains eligible to participate in the Plan throughout the remainder of such Purchase Period, or such other lesser maximum number of Common Shares as shall have been established by the Committee in advance of the Purchase Period; provided, however, that such option shall be subject to the limitations set forth below.

Each Participant’s option shall be exercisable only to the extent of such Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on the Purchase Date. The option price will be 85 percent of the Average Market Price (as defined in Article 2) of the Common Shares on the Purchase Date, rounded up to the nearest cent (the “Option Price”). If a Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on the last day of the Purchase Period would enable a Participant to purchase more than the share limit provided under this Article 7, the excess of the amount of the accumulated payroll deductions over the aggregate Option Price of the Common Shares permitted to be purchased under the Plan shall be promptly refunded to the Participant by the Company, without interest. The foregoing limitation on the number of Common Shares subject to option and the Option Price shall be subject to adjustments as provided in Article 14.

No Participant under the Plan may be granted an option that permits the Participant’s rights to purchase Common Shares under the Plan, and any other Section 423(b) employee stock purchase plans of the Company and its Parent and Subsidiaries, to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such shares (determined on the option grant date or dates) for each calendar year in which the option is outstanding at any time. The purpose of the limitation in the preceding sentence is to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code. If the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on the Purchase Date would otherwise enable the Participant to purchase Common Shares in excess of the Section 423(b)(8) limitation described in this paragraph, the excess of the amount of the accumulated payroll deductions over the aggregate Option Price of the Common Shares actually purchased shall be promptly refunded to the Participant by the Company, without interest.

Article 8 - Exercise of Option

Each eligible employee who continues to be a Participant in the Plan on the Purchase Date shall be deemed to have exercised his or her option on such date and shall be deemed to have purchased from the Company such number of whole Common Shares reserved for the purpose of the

Plan as the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on such date will pay for at the Option Price, subject to the 100,000 Common Share limit of the option and the Section 423(b)(8) limitation described in Article 7. If the individual is not a Participant on the Purchase Date, then he or she shall not be entitled to exercise his or her option. Only whole Common Shares may be purchased under the Plan. Unused payroll deductions remaining in a Participant’s account at the end of a Purchase Period by reason of the inability to purchase a fractional share shall be carried forward to the next Purchase Period.

Article 9 - Plan Enrollment

An eligible employee may elect to enter the Plan, at the discretion of the Committee, (i) through an electronic enrollment that provides required enrollment information requested by the Company, or (ii) by filling out, signing and delivering to the Company an authorization in a form specified by the Committee, in either case:

A.stating the percentage to be deducted regularly from the employee’s Compensation (or contributed by other means to the extent permitted by the Committee);

B.authorizing the purchase of Common Shares for the employee in each Purchase Period in accordance with the terms of the Plan; and

C.specifying the exact name or names in which Common Shares purchased for the employee are to be issued as provided under Article 13 hereof.

Such enrollment or authorization must be received by the Company at least ten days before the first day of the next succeeding Purchase Period and shall take effect only if the employee is an eligible employee on the first business day of such Purchase Period, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

Unless a Participant completes a new election under Article 11 or withdraws from the Plan or no longer meets the eligibility requirements in Article 4, the deductions and purchases under the enrollment or authorization on file for the Participant under the Plan will continue automatically from one Purchase Period to succeeding Purchase Periods as long as the Plan remains in effect.

The Company will accumulate and hold for each Participant’s account the amounts deducted from his or her pay. No interest will be paid on these amounts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, participation in the Plan will neither be permitted nor be denied contrary to the requirements of the Code or other applicable law.

Article 10 - Maximum Amount of Payroll Deductions

Each eligible employee may authorize payroll deductions in an amount (expressed as a whole percentage) not less than one percent and not more than fifteen percent of such employee’s Compensation (as defined below) for each pay period. An amount equal to the elected percentage of the Participant’s base salary plus any commissions and bonus, paid on a gross basis before any deduction for tax or other amounts (“Compensation”) shall be deducted on each regular payday falling within the Purchase Period. All amounts will be calculated on the Participant’s gross Compensation, and deducted from a Participant’s net pay on an after-tax basis. The Company will

maintain book accounts showing the amount of payroll deductions made on behalf of each Participant for each Purchase Period.

Article 11 - Change in Payroll Deductions

A Participant may elect to increase or decrease his or her rate of payroll deduction by submitting an election (which may be in electronic form), at any time during a Purchase Period, in accordance with, and if and to the extent permitted by, procedures established by the Company from time to time, which may, if permitted by the Company, include a decrease to zero percent; provided, however, that unless determined otherwise by the Committee, a decrease to zero percent shall be a deemed withdrawal from the Plan. Any such election is subject to compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and applicable trading black-out periods.

A Participant that stops payroll deductions in any Purchase Period in accordance with the foregoing or that withdraws from the Plan may not elect to participate further in the Plan until the next Purchase Period except with the written consent of the Company.

Article 12 - Withdrawal from the Plan

A Participant may withdraw from participation in the Plan (in whole but not in part) at any time, except, with respect to withdrawal from a Purchase Period, on the last day of the Purchase Period, in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the Committee by delivering a notice of withdrawal (which may be in electronic form) to the Company or a person designated by the Company. The Participant’s withdrawal will be effective as of the next business day. Following a Participant’s withdrawal, the Company will promptly refund the amount of the Participant’s aggregate payroll deductions for that Purchase Period to him or her (after payment for any Common Shares purchased before the effective date of withdrawal), without interest. Partial withdrawals are not permitted. Any such withdrawal is subject to compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and applicable trading black-out periods.

Such an employee may not begin participation again during the remainder of the Purchase Period, but may enroll in a subsequent Purchase Period in accordance with Article 9. The employee’s re-entry into the Plan becomes effective at the beginning of such Purchase Period, provided that he or she is an eligible employee on the first business day of the Purchase Period.

Article 13 - Issuance of Common Shares to Custodial Accounts

The Common Shares purchased by Participants will be issued electronically by the Company’s transfer agent to a Participant’s custodial account as soon as practicable after each Purchase Date. Common Shares purchased under the Plan will be issued only in the name of the Participant or his or her nominee (or, if his or her authorization so designates, in the name of the Participant and another person of legal age as joint tenants with rights of survivorship or a nominee). The custodial account of Participants shall be maintained by a bank, broker-dealer or similar custodian that has agreed to hold such shares for the accounts of the respective Participants. A Participant or his or her legal representative may withdraw Common Shares from the Participant’s custodial account at any time. Fees and expenses of the bank, broker-dealer or similar custodian shall be paid by the Company or allocated among the respective Participants in such manner as the Committee determines.

Article 14 - Adjustments

Upon the happening of any of the following described events, a Participant’s rights under options granted under the Plan shall be adjusted as hereinafter provided.

In the event that the Common Shares shall be subdivided or consolidated into a greater or smaller number of shares or if, upon a reorganization, split-up, liquidation, recapitalization or the like of the Company, the Common Shares shall be exchanged for other securities of the Company, each Participant shall be entitled, subject to the conditions herein stated, to purchase such number of Common Shares or amount of other securities of the Company as were exchangeable for the number of Common Shares that such Participant would have been entitled to purchase except for such action, and appropriate adjustments shall be made in the purchase price per share to reflect such subdivision, consolidated or exchange.

Upon the happening of any of the foregoing events, the class and aggregate number of Common Shares set forth in Article 5 hereof which are subject to options which have been or may be granted under the Plan and the limitations set forth in Articles 7 and 8 shall also be appropriately adjusted to reflect the events specified in the above paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustments made pursuant to the above paragraph shall be made only after the Committee, based on advice of counsel for the Company, determines whether such adjustments would constitute a “modification” (as that term is defined in Section 424 of the Code). If the Committee determines that such adjustments would constitute a modification, or that such change will constitute a change requiring shareholder approval, it may refrain from making such adjustments.

If the Company is to be consolidated with or acquired by another entity in a merger, a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or otherwise (an “Acquisition”), the Committee or the board of directors of any entity assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder (the “Successor Board”) shall, with respect to options then outstanding under the Plan, either (i) make appropriate provision for the continuation of such options by arranging for the substitution on an equitable basis for the shares then subject to such options either (a) the consideration payable with respect to the outstanding Common Shares in connection with the Acquisition, (b) shares of the successor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary of such corporation, or (c) such other securities as the Successor Board deems appropriate, the fair market value of which shall not exceed the fair market value of the Common Shares subject to such options immediately preceding the Acquisition; or (ii) terminate each Participant’s options in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of (a) the fair market value on the date of the Acquisition, of the number of Common Shares that the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions as of the date of the Acquisition could purchase, at an option price determined with reference only to the first business day of the applicable Purchase Period and subject to Code Section 423(b)(8) and fractional-share limitations on the amount of shares a Participant would be entitled to purchase, over (b) the result of multiplying such number of shares by such option price.

The Committee or Successor Board shall determine the adjustments to be made under this Article 14, and its determination shall be conclusive.

Article 15 - No Transfer or Assignment of Employee’s Rights

An option granted under the Plan or a Participant’s rights under the Plan may not be pledged, assigned, encumbered or otherwise transferred for any reason, except by will or laws of descent and distribution, and are exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant. Any attempt to pledge, assign, encumber or transfer an option or any rights hereunder will be deemed to be an election by the Participant to withdraw from the Plan in accordance with Article 12.

Article 16 - Designation of Beneficiary

A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any Common Shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death subsequent to a Purchase Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to him or her of such Common Shares and cash. In addition, a Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death prior to the exercise of an option.

Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant (and his or her spouse, if any) at any time by written notice to the Company. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such Common Shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such Common Shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

Article 17 - Termination of Employee’s Rights

Whenever a Participant ceases to be an eligible employee because of retirement, voluntary or involuntary termination, resignation, layoff, discharge, death or for any other reason before the Purchase Date for any Purchase Period, the option will automatically be terminated on the date that the Participant ceases to be an eligible employee except in the case of involuntary termination, in which case the option will automatically be terminated on the date that notice of termination of employment is delivered to the eligible employee, without regard to any notice, pay in lieu of notice, severance pay or similar compensation to which the eligible employee may be entitled, except as otherwise expressly required by applicable employment or labour standards legislation, and the Participant shall have no claim for damages in lieu or in respect of the termination of such option. In such event, the Company shall promptly refund the entire balance of the Participant’s payroll deduction account, without interest, to such Participant or, in the case of such Participant’s death, to his or her designated beneficiary, as if such Participant had withdrawn from the Plan in accordance with Article 12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, eligible employment shall be treated as continuing intact while a Participant is on sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence, for up to 90 days, or for so long as the Participant’s right to re-employment is guaranteed either by statute or by contract, if longer than 90 days.

This Plan does not, directly or indirectly, create any right for the benefit of any employee or class of employees to preferentially purchase any Common Shares under the Plan, or create in any

employee or class of employees any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Company, and it shall not be deemed to interfere in any way with the Company’s right to terminate, or otherwise modify, an employee’s employment at any time.

Article 18 - Special Rules

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee may adopt special rules applicable to the employees of a particular Participating Subsidiary, whenever the Committee determines that such rules are necessary or appropriate for the implementation of the Plan in a jurisdiction where such Participating Subsidiary has employees; provided that such rules are consistent with the requirements of Section 423(b) of the Code. Any special rules established pursuant to this Article 18 shall, to the extent possible, result in the employees subject to such rules having substantially the same rights as other Participants in the Plan.

Article 19 - Interest

No interest will accrue on the accumulated payroll deductions or other contributions permitted by the Committee of a Participant, except as may be required by applicable local law, as determined by the Company, and if so required by the laws of a particular jurisdiction, shall apply to all Participants in the relevant Offering under the Plan, except to the extent otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Article 20 - Termination and Amendments to Plan

The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Board but such termination shall not affect options then outstanding under the Plan. It will terminate in any case when all or substantially all of the unissued Common Shares reserved for the purposes of the Plan have been purchased. If at any time Common Shares reserved for the purpose of the Plan remain available for purchase but not in sufficient number to satisfy all then unfilled purchase rights, the available Common Shares shall be allocated pro rata among Participants in proportion to the amount of payroll deductions accumulated on behalf of each Participant that would otherwise be used to purchase Common Shares, and the Plan shall terminate. Upon such termination or any other termination of the Plan, all payroll deductions not used to purchase Common Shares will be refunded, without interest.

The Committee or the Board may from time to time adopt amendments to the Plan provided that, without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, no amendment may (i) increase the number of Common Shares that may be issued under the Plan; (ii) provide for or increase the amount of any cash contribution that may be made by the Company to the purchase of Common Shares by any employee participating in the Plan; (iii) increase the maximum percentage of base salary during any pay period or the maximum dollar amount in any one calendar year that any eligible Participant may direct be contributed, pursuant to the Plan, towards the purchase of Common Shares on his or her behalf through payroll deductions; (iv) increase the Option Price discount as further described in Article 7; (v) increase the limits on the total number of Common Shares that may be acquired by any one individual under the Plan or any one Insider of the Company and the Insider’s associates; (vi) change the eligible Participants in a manner that would have the potential for broadening or increasing the Insider participation in the Plan; or (vii) increase the limit on the total number of Common Shares that may be acquired by Insiders of the Company or acquired by Insiders within a one-year period.

In addition, any modification or amendment to the Plan will be subject to the prior approval of the TSX to the extent that the Common Shares are listed on the TSX at the time of such proposed termination, modification or amendment.

Article 21 - Limits on Sale of Shares Purchased under the Plan

The Plan is intended to provide Common Shares for investment and not for resale. The Company does not, however, intend to restrict or influence any employee in the conduct of his or her own affairs. An employee may, therefore, sell Common Shares purchased under the Plan at any time the employee chooses, subject to compliance with any applicable federal, state and provincial securities laws and regulations; subject to any restrictions imposed under Article 25 to ensure that tax withholding obligations are satisfied; subject to compliance with the terms of the Company’s Insider Trading Policy; and subject to compliance with any conditions imposed by the Committee or the Board under the Plan with respect to any subsequent purchases made by Participants under the Plan. THE EMPLOYEE ASSUMES THE RISK OF ANY MARKET FLUCTUATIONS IN THE PRICE OF THE COMMON SHARES.

Article 22 - Optionees Not Shareholders

Neither the granting of an option to a Participant nor the deductions from his or her pay shall constitute such Participant a shareholder of the shares covered by an option under the Plan until such shares have been purchased by and issued to him or her. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall deliver to each Participant under this Plan who does not otherwise receive such materials (a) a copy of the Company’s annual financial statements, together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal year, and (b) a copy of all reports, proxy statements and other communications distributed to the Company’s security holders generally.

Article 23 - Application of Funds

All funds received or held by the Company under the Plan may be combined with other corporate funds, and may be used for general corporate purposes.

Article 24 - Notice to Company of Disqualifying Disposition

By electing to participate in the Plan, each United States of America resident agrees to notify the Company in writing immediately after the Participant transfers Common Shares acquired under the Plan, if such transfer occurs within two years after the first business day of the Purchase Period in which such Common Shares were acquired. Each Participant further agrees to provide any information about such a transfer as may be requested by the Company or any Subsidiary in order to assist it in complying with the tax laws.

Article 25 - Withholding of Additional Taxes

By electing to participate in the Plan, each Participant acknowledges that the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries are required to withhold taxes with respect to the amounts deducted from the Participant’s Compensation and accumulated for the benefit of the Participant under the Plan, and each Participant agrees that the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries may deduct

additional amounts from the Participant’s Compensation, when amounts are added to the Participant’s account, used to purchase Common Shares or refunded, in order to satisfy such withholding obligations. Each Participant further acknowledges that when Common Shares are purchased under the Plan the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries may be required to withhold taxes with respect to all or a portion of the difference between the fair market value of the Common Shares purchased and their purchase price and any other taxable benefit arising from participation in the Plan, and each Participant agrees that such taxes may be withheld from Compensation otherwise payable to such Participant. It is intended that tax withholding will be accomplished in such a manner that the full amount of payroll deductions elected by the Participant under Article 9 will be used to purchase the Common Shares. However, if amounts sufficient to satisfy applicable tax withholding obligations have not been withheld from Compensation otherwise payable to any Participant, then, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company may withhold such taxes from the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions and apply the net amount to the purchase of Common Shares, unless the Participant pays to the Company, prior to the Purchase Date, an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding obligations. Each Participant further acknowledges that the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries may be required to withhold taxes in connection with the disposition of Common Shares acquired under the Plan and agrees that the Company or any Participating Subsidiary may take whatever action it considers appropriate to satisfy such withholding requirements, including deducting from Compensation otherwise payable to such Participant an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements or conditioning any disposition of Common Shares by the Participant upon the payment to the Company or such Participating Subsidiary of an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements. For purposes of this Article 25, “taxes” include all remuneration-related deductions, withholdings and contributions required by any governmental authority.

Article 26 - Governmental Regulations

The Company’s obligation to sell and deliver Common Shares under the Plan is subject to the approval of any governmental authority required in connection with the authorization, issuance or sale of such shares. Common Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option granted under the Plan unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of the shares of Common Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed.

Article 27 - Governing Law

The validity and construction of the Plan shall be governed by the laws of Ontario, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

Article 28 - Approval of the Board and Shareholders of the Company

This Plan shall be effective as of the date it is approved by the holders of a majority of the Common Shares of the Company present or represented by proxy at the annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company, held after the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board, and in a manner that complies with Section 423(b)(2) of the Code and applicable Canadian law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of this Plan shall not apply until Purchase Periods commencing on or after January 1, 2016, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

Article 29 - Miscellaneous
