The information set forth in Items 5 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.

The 24,021,508 Common Shares reported to be owned by Eagle Canada and BIF IV Eagle were acquired in the open market for an aggregate consideration of C$229,718,658 (including brokerage commission but excluding director compensation shares) or received through grants of Common Shares awarded as director compensation to the Reporting Persons’ director nominees currently serving on the Issuer’s board of directors in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement (as defined in Item 6 below). All purchases of Common Shares in open market transactions were funded from available liquidity.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The information set forth in Items 3 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

The Reporting Persons believe that the Issuer’s equity represents an attractive investment opportunity and have acquired Common Shares of the Issuer; the Investor (as defined in Item 6 below) has also entered into the Investment Agreement.

The Reporting Persons will continuously review their investment with respect to the Issuer and, depending on various factors, including the price of the Common Shares; terms and conditions applicable to any potential transaction, including the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement and the limitations provided for therein; the Issuer’s financial condition, business, operations and prospects; the liquidity and diversification objectives of the Reporting Persons; and such other factors that the Reporting Persons deem relevant at any time or from time to time, may increase their economic exposure to the Issuer; acquire other Common Shares of the Issuer or other securities of the Issuer, including securities convertible or exchangeable for the Common Shares of the Issuer from time to time on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, directly from the Issuer or by other means (including, without limitation, extraordinary corporate transactions such as a merger or tender offer) and may make public or private proposals relating to the acquisition of all or a portion of the outstanding equity of the Issuer that the Reporting Persons do not beneficially own, subject in all cases to the terms of the Investment Agreement and required regulatory approvals, if any, and compliance with applicable laws.

Although the Reporting Persons have no specific plan or proposal to dispose of the Common Shares, the Reporting Persons also may, at any time and from time to time, subject to compliance at all relevant times with the Investment Agreement, Margin Loan Agreement (as defined in Item 6 below) and regulatory requirements and applicable securities laws, terminate in whole or in part, dispose of or distribute some or all of their Common Shares or such other securities they own or may subsequently acquire, depending on various factors, including the price of the Common Shares; terms and conditions applicable to any potential transaction; liquidity and diversification objectives of the Reporting Persons; the matters set forth in the preceding sentence; and such other factors that the Reporting Persons deem relevant at any time or from time to time.

The Reporting Persons may, to the extent they deem advisable and subject to and in compliance with the terms of the Investment Agreement, in the circumstances, participate in and influence the affairs of the Issuer through the exercise of their voting rights with respect to the Common Shares owned by the Reporting Persons and the ability to nominate two directors to board of directors of the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement.

The Reporting Persons may engage in, or continue to engage in, as the case may be, communications with one or more security holders of the Issuer; one or more officers of the Issuer; one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer; and one or more representatives of the Issuer, in each case subject to and in compliance with the terms of the Investment Agreement.

The Reporting Persons may discuss ideas that, if effected, may result in the termination, in whole or in part, of the Investment Agreement and/or the Margin Loan Agreement (in each case in accordance with the terms of each agreement) and any of the following: subject to the terms of the Investment Agreement and the Margin Loan Agreement, (i) the acquisition by the Reporting Persons or other persons of additional Common Shares, (ii) the disposition of Common Shares held by the Reporting Persons or other persons, (iii) the acquisition of other securities of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons or other persons, (iv) an extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer, and/or (v) changes in the board of directors or management of the Issuer.

Except to the extent that the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal, and as otherwise disclosed in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals which relate to or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto and carry out any of the actions or transactions referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D, to the extent deemed advisable by the Reporting Persons and in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

The information set forth in Items 3, 4 and 5 hereof is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 6.

On March 22, 2019, Brookfield BRP Holdings (Canada) Inc., a corporation existing under the laws of Ontario and a subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with the Issuer. On April 30, 2019, Brookfield BRP Holdings (Canada) Inc. assigned its rights and obligations under the Investment Agreement to Eagle Hydro II LP, a limited partnership existing under the laws of Ontario (including its permitted successors and assigns, the “Investor”). The general partner of Eagle Hydro II LP is Eagle Hydro Investments GP Inc., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BIF IV Cdn. The Investment Agreement provides for, in part, the following:

• The investment by the Investor of $350 million in the form of unsecured subordinated debentures at the first closing (the “Debentures”) and $400 million at a second closing expected to be in October 2020 in the form of redeemable preferred shares (the “Redeemable Preferred Shares,” and together, the “Exchangeable Securities”). Both securities have an annual coupon rate of 7.0% and will be convertible into an equity interest in an entity holding the hydro assets of the Issuer after December 31, 2024. The Debentures were issued on May 1, 2019.

• After December 31, 2024, subject to acceleration in certain circumstances, the Investor has the right to exchange the Exchangeable Securities into an equity ownership interest in an entity to be formed that will hold the Issuer’s Alberta hydro assets (the “Hydro Assets”), as follows:

^○  The value of the Hydro Assets will be calculated based on a multiple of 13 times the average annual EBITDA generated by the Hydro Assets less $10 million per year of sustaining capex over the most recent three fiscal years prior to conversion, less an adjustment for tax, calculated in the manner specified in the exchangeable security provisions. The maximum equity interest the Investor can own with respect to the Hydro Assets is 49%.

^○  If the Investor’s ownership interest is less than 49% at conversion, the Investor has a one-time option payable in cash to increase its ownership to up to 49%, exercisable up until December 31, 2028, and provided the Investor holds at least 8.5% of the Common Shares. Under this top-up option, the Investor will be able to acquire an additional 10% interest in the entity holding the Hydro Assets, provided the 20-day volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Shares is not less than $14 per share prior to the exercise of the option, and up to the full 49% if the 20-day VWAP of the Common Shares at that time is not less than $17 per share.

^○  To the extent the value of the investment would exceed a 49% equity interest, the Investor will be entitled to receive the balance of the redemption price in cash.

• If the Investor chooses not to exercise its right to exchange its investment as outlined above, the Issuer has the right after December 31, 2028 to redeem for cash all or any portion of the Exchangeable Securities for the original subscription price, plus any accrued but unpaid interest or dividends payable, provided the minimum proceeds to the Investor for each redemption (other than the final redemption) is not less than $100 million and provided all Exchangeable Securities must be redeemed within 36 months of the first optional redemption.

• The Investor has agreed to increase its equity ownership in the Issuer to 9% on the open market over two years following closing of the transaction, provided the Investor is not obliged to purchase the Common Shares at a price of more than $10 per share.

• While Investor owns the Exchangeable Securities, it has the right to nominate two members for election to the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”) at each annual meeting of shareholders. If the Investor’s nominees to the Board are not elected at the 2019 Meeting or any subsequent meeting, the Investor’s obligation to increase and maintain its holding of Common Shares at 9% and its standstill and lock-up obligations (described below) will be suspended until the date that its nominees are elected or appointed to the Board. Currently, Harry Goldgut and Richard Legault are serving as the Investor’s director nominees on the Board.

• The Investor has agreed to standstill commitments for a three-year period from the date the first tranche is funded, with customary exceptions. It has also agreed to vote in favor of the Issuer’s director nominees and in accordance with any recommendations of the Board at any meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer, for a minimum of three years and subject to extension for so long as it has nominees on the Board.

• The Investor has also agreed to a lock-up which prohibits the sale of Common Shares or Exchangeable Securities, subject to certain exclusions, until December 31, 2023.

• The Issuer and the Investor form a joint operating committee, for a period of six years, focused on optimizing the operations and maximizing the value of the Hydro Assets. The committee has subsequently been formed and currently consists of two Investor members, who are not nominees to the Board, with expertise in hydro facility management and two Issuer members. The Investor receives a management fee of $1.5 million per year for six years as compensation for its work on the committee. The Issuer has the option to extend this arrangement for an additional two years.

On May 1, 2019, the Investor and the Issuer entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The parties agreed to enter into the Registration Rights Agreement to provide for the right of (i) the Investor or (ii) any affiliate of Brookfield beneficially owning Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) that becomes a party to the Registration Rights Agreement (collectively, the “Holders”) to require the Issuer, from time to time, to prepare and file a preliminary prospectus supplement, if applicable, and a final prospectus supplement with the Canadian Securities Commissions and/or with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to an effective registration statement, to permit the sale of the Registrable Securities by the Holders in such manner as the Holders may designate, subject to and on the terms, conditions and limitations provided for in the Registration Rights Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement also contains other terms and conditions including those customary to agreements of this kind, including indemnification provisions.

In addition, on September 9, 2019, BIF IV Eagle and Eagle Canada (the “Borrowers”) entered into a margin loan agreement (the “Margin Loan Agreement”) of up to C$100,000,000 with Bank of Montreal as lender (the “Lender”) and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. as the calculation agent, pursuant to which the Borrowers agreed to pledge Common Shares from time to time as collateral to secure their obligations under the Margin Loan Agreement. As of March 2, 2020, 23,996,929 Common Shares were subject to the pledge under the security agreements in connection with the Margin Loan Agreement. The loan matures on or about September 9, 2021 (unless otherwise extended). Upon the occurrence of certain events that are customary for this type of loan, the Lender may exercise its rights to require the Borrowers to pre-pay the loan proceeds or post additional collateral, or foreclose on, and dispose of, the pledged Common Shares in accordance with the loan documents relating to the Margin Loan Agreement.

The foregoing summaries of the Investment Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and Margin Loan Agreement described in this Item 6 do not purport to be complete and, as such, are qualified in their entirety by the Investment Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Margin Loan Agreement set forth in Exhibits 99.2, 99.3 and 99.4, respectfully, hereto and incorporated in this Item 6 by reference.

If any such Cash, securities, securities entitlements or other property or assets are received by such Borrower or any Affiliate thereof for any reason in respect of the Collateral Shares, such Borrower shall, or shall cause such Affiliate to, make such deposit or delivery as promptly as practicable and in any event no later than two Business Days following such receipt (and pending such delivery, shall hold such property in trust for the Lender), subject, in each case, to any subsequent release thereof in accordance with Section 2.12(d).

(iii) The Borrowers shall not tender any Collateral Shares in any take-over bid or exchange offer (including a Split-off) without the consent of the Lender, provided that

32

such consent shall not be required where (i) the offeror in respect of such take-over bid or exchange offer has deposited into an irrevocable escrow all cash or securities required to complete such take-over bid or exchange offer and such escrow is on such terms as shall ensure that any Collateral Shares tendered thereto will be returned in the event that the purchase is not completed, or (ii) there is otherwise no settlement risk to the Borrowers in respect of the completion of such take-over bid or exchange offer or the return of the Collateral Shares in the event such take-over bid or exchange offer is not completed.

Section 2.13. Increased Costs; Break Funding.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Lender;

(ii) impose on the Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by the Lender; or

(iii) subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than (1) Indemnified Taxes, (2) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (3) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining the Loans hereunder (or of maintaining the Commitment) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then Borrowers will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such reasonable additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If the Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity 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 or the Loans made by the Lender, to a level below that which the Lender or the Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Lender’s policies and the policies of the Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender or the Lender’s holding company for any actual losses with respect to such reduction.

(c) A certificate of the Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts (and the calculation thereof) necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers. Such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation;

33

provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.13 or the Borrowers must pay increased amounts or any amounts for Indemnified Taxes pursuant to Section 2.14, then the Lender will, if requested by the Borrowers, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another lending office for any Loan, or portion thereof, affected by the relevant event if, in the judgment of the Lender, such designation would (i) avoid the requirement for or reduce the amount of such compensation, increased amounts or amounts for Indemnified Taxes, and (ii) would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to the Lender; provided that such efforts need only be made on terms that, in the commercially reasonable judgment of the Lender, cause the Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and provided further that nothing in this Section 2.13(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of the Lender pursuant to Section 2.07(a) through (d) or Section 2.14. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with any such designation.

(f) The Borrowers shall compensate the Lender, upon written request (in the form of a certificate) by the Lender (which certificate shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amounts and shall be conclusive absent manifest error), for all reasonable loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits or margin) actually incurred by it as a result of:

(i) any payment or prepayment of a CDOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

(ii) any failure by a Borrower to prepay, borrow, convert or continue any CDOR Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the applicable Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of the Lender to make a CDOR Rate in breach of its obligation hereunder).

(g) All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.13 shall survive termination of the Facility and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

Section 2.14. Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers or either of them under any Margin Loan Documentation shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Lender or a Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Lender or a Borrower, then the Lender

34

or such Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Lender, within 20 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.14) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from any payment to the Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by the Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Status of Lender.

(i) If the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Taxes with respect to payments made under any Margin Loan Documentation, it shall deliver to the Borrowers, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will enable the Borrowers to determine whether or not the Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.14(d)(ii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing if a payment made to the Lender under any Margin Loan Documentation would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if the Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation

35

reasonably requested by the Borrowers as may be necessary for the Borrowers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Lender has complied with the Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

The Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrowers in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(e) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the Borrower that indemnified it an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Borrowers, upon the request of the Lender, shall repay to the Lender the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that the Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), in no event will the Lender be required to pay any amount to a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (e) the payment of which would place the Lender in a less favourable net after-Tax position than the Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall 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 Borrowers or any other Person.

Section 2.15. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Lender shall notify the Borrowers that any Law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender to perform its obligations to make or maintain Loans hereunder as CDOR Rate Loans, the obligation of the Lender to make such Loans shall be terminated and all such Loans shall become Prime Rate Loans either on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain the Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain the Loans.

Section 2.16. Evidence of Debt. The Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to it resulting from each Loan from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to it from time to time hereunder. The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided that the failure of the Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein

36

shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such obligations in accordance with their terms.

Section 2.17. Payments and Computations.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day when due (subject to Section 2.12, with respect to any payment made to cure a Collateral Shortfall) in Canadian Dollars to the Lender in immediately available funds. All payments received by the Lender after 1:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day (subject to Section 2.12, with respect to any payment made to cure a Collateral Shortfall) and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder would be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or any fees, as the case may be.

(c) All payments (including prepayments and any other amounts received hereunder in connection with the exercise of the Lender’s rights after an Event of Default) made by a Borrower to the Lender under any Margin Loan Documentation shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order, ratably in accordance with the percentage of any such amounts owed to each Lender: (A) any expenses and indemnities payable by the Borrowers to the Lender under any Margin Loan Documentation; (B) to any accrued and unpaid interest and fees due under this Agreement; (C) to principal payments on the outstanding Loans; and (D) to the extent of any excess, to the payment of all other Obligations under the Margin Loan Documentation; provided that, in the case of an exercise of remedies, the Lender may elect the order in which different Loans are deemed to be paid.

Section 2.18. Alternative Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any CDOR Rate Loan:

(i) the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the CDOR Rate for such Interest Period; or

(ii) if the Lender determines that the CDOR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining Loans for such Interest Period;

then the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Lender notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (a) any Rollover/Conversion Notice that requests the conversion of any Prime Rate Loans to CDOR Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected CDOR Rate Loans or Interest Periods) shall be ineffective and such Prime Rate Loans (unless prepaid) shall remain Prime Rate Loans, (b) if any Borrowing Notice requests CDOR Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected CDOR Rate Loans or Interest Periods), such CDOR Rate Loans shall be made as Prime Rate Loans and (c) at

37

the end of any Interest Period for any then-outstanding CDOR Rate Loan (to the extent of the affected CDOR Rate Loans or Interest Periods), such CDOR Rate Loan shall be converted to a Prime Rate Loan.

Section 2.19. CDOR Discontinuation.

(a) If the Lender has determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the CDOR Rate, including because the “CDOR Page” of Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service is not available or published on a current basis for the applicable Interest Period and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary;

(ii) the administrator of the CDOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the CDOR Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be made available or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of loans; or

(iii) a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the CDOR Rate shall no longer be permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of loans (each such specific date in clause (ii) above and in this clause (iii)s a “CDOR Scheduled Unavailability Date”),

then reasonably promptly after such determination by the Lender, the Lender and the Borrowers will mutually agree upon a successor rate to the CDOR Rate, and the Lender and the Borrowers will amend this Agreement to replace the CDOR Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar Canadian Dollars denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “CDOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed CDOR Successor Rate conforming changes.

(b) If no CDOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under Section 2.19(a) above exist or a CDOR Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrowers. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain CDOR Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected CDOR Rate Loans or Interest Periods). Upon receipt of such notice, a Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Loan of CDOR Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected CDOR Rate Loans, or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Loan of a Prime Rate Loan in the amount specified therein. Any Rollover/Conversion Notice that requests the conversion of any Prime Rate Loans to a CDOR Rate Loan that is an affected CDOR Rate Loan shall be ineffective and such Prime Rate Loan will remain a Prime Rate Loan and notwithstanding Section 2.05(c) of this Agreement, at the end of any Interest Period for any then-outstanding affected CDOR Rate Loan, such CDOR Rate Loan shall be converted to a Prime Rate Loan.

38

(c) Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of the CDOR Successor Rate (exclusive of any margin) shall provide that in no event shall such CDOR Successor Rate be less than zero for the purposes of this Agreement. In addition, CDOR Rate shall not be included or referenced in the definition of Prime Rate.

AGENTS

Section 8.01. Authorization and Authority. The Lender hereby irrevocably appoints BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., to act on its behalf as Calculation Agent under the Margin Loan

53

Documentation and authorizes the Calculation Agent to take such actions on the Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Calculation Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 8 are solely for the benefit of the Calculation Agent and the Lender, and the Borrowers shall not have rights as third-party beneficiaries or otherwise of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Margin Loan Documentation (or any other similar term) with reference to the Calculation Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 8.02. Duties of the Calculation Agent; Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) The Calculation Agent’s duties hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation are solely ministerial and administrative in nature and the Calculation Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Calculation Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Calculation Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, but shall be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written direction of the Lender; provided that the Calculation Agent shall not be required to take any action or refrain from acting if, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, taking such action or so refraining from acting, as the case may be, may expose the Calculation Agent or any of its Affiliates to liability or would, as determined by the Calculation Agent in good faith, be contrary to this Agreement or applicable Law.

(b) Other than an action or obligation expressly set forth herein, the Calculation Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Lender, or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Calculation Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Facility Adjustment Event, Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default unless and until a Borrower or the Lender shall have given notice to the Calculation Agent describing such Facility Adjustment Event, Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default and such event or events.

(c) Neither the Calculation Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty, representation or other information made or supplied in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith or the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information contained therein, (iii) he performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Facility Adjustment Event, Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Margin Loan Documentation or any other agreement, instrument or

54

document or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created hereby or thereby or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Calculation Agent.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Calculation Agent or any of its Related Parties to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any Person on behalf of the Lender and the Lender confirms to the Calculation Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Calculation Agent or any of its Related Parties.

Section 8.03. Reliance by Agent.The Calculation Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Calculation Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of any Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of the Lender, the Calculation Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to the Lender unless an officer or Authorized Representative of the Calculation Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from the Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Calculation Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 8.04. Delegation of Duties.The Calculation Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Margin Loan Documentation by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it, and it and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties; provided, in each case, that no such delegation to a sub-agent or a Related Party shall release the Calculation Agent from any of its obligations hereunder. Each such sub-agent and the Related Parties of the Calculation Agent and each such sub-agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 8 and Margin Loan Documentation (as though such sub-agents were the “Calculation Agent” hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. The Calculation Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that (i) the Calculation Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct or otherwise materially breached any Margin Loan Documentation in the selection of such sub-agents or (ii) any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or a material breach of any Margin Loan Documentation by, the Calculation Agent or sub-agent.

Section 8.05. Resignation of Calculation Agent.The Calculation Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lender and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Lender shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers (unless an Event

55

of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and not have been cured or waived)), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in Toronto, Ontario, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in Toronto, Ontario. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Lender and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Calculation Agent gives notice of its resignation (such 30-day period, the “Lender Appointment Period”), then the retiring Calculation Agent may on behalf of the Lender appoint a successor Calculation Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. In addition and without any obligation on the part of the retiring Calculation Agent to appoint, on behalf of the Lender, a successor Calculation Agent, the retiring Calculation Agent may at any time upon or after the end of the Lender Appointment Period notify Borrowers and the Lender that no qualifying Person has accepted appointment as successor Calculation Agent and of the effective date of such retiring Calculation Agent’s resignation which effective date shall be no earlier than three Business Days after the date of such notice. Upon the resignation effective date established in such notice and regardless of whether a successor Calculation Agent has been appointed and accepted such appointment, the retiring Calculation Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and (i) the retiring Calculation Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Calculation Agent hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation, and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Calculation Agent shall instead be made by or to the Lender directly, until such time as the Lender appoints a successor Calculation Agent as provided for above in this Section 8.05. The successor shall be consented to by the Borrowers at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default that has not been cured or waived (which consent of the Borrowers shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as an Calculation Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties as Calculation Agent of the retiring (or retired) Calculation Agent, and the retiring Calculation Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations as Calculation Agent hereunder and/or under the other Margin Loan Documentation (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 8.05). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Calculation Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Calculation Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation, the provisions of this Article 8 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Calculation Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Calculation Agent was acting as Calculation Agent.

Section 8.06. Non-Reliance on Calculation Agent.

(a) The Lender confirms to the Calculation Agent and the Calculation Agent’s Related Parties that the Lender (i) possesses (individually or through its Related Parties) such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable, without reliance on the Calculation Agent or any of the Calculation Agent’s Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, credit, accounting and other financial matters) of (x) entering into this Agreement, (y) making its portion of the Facility and (z) taking or not taking actions hereunder, (ii) is financially able to bear such risks and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making its portion of the Facility is suitable and appropriate for it.

56

(b) The Lender acknowledges that (i) it is solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation, (ii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Calculation Agent or any of the Calculation Agent’s Related Parties, made its own appraisal and investigation of all risks associated with, and its own credit analysis and decision to enter into, this Agreement based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate and (iii) it will, independently and without reliance upon the Calculation Agent or any of the Calculation Agent’s Related Parties, continue to be solely responsible for making its own appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with, and its own credit analysis and decision to take or not take action under, this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, which may include, in each case:

(i) the financial condition, status and capitalization of the Borrowers;

(ii) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with this Agreement;

(iii) determining compliance or non-compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Loans and the form and substance of all evidence delivered in connection with establishing the satisfaction of each such condition; or

(iv) the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of any other information delivered by the Calculation Agent or by any of the Calculation Agent’s Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement, the other Margin Loan Documentation, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with this Agreement.

Section 8.07. Other Acceptable Collateral.The Calculation Agent shall not consent to any property or securities being included as Other Acceptable Collateral, or determine the Other Acceptable Collateral Haircut, without the written consent of the Lender.

ARTICLE 9

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.01. Amendments; Adjustments. Neither this Agreement nor any of the other Margin Loan Documentation nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, modified or supplemented, nor any consent granted to any deviation to the terms hereof or thereof, except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Lender and the Borrowers.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the occurrence of any Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event, the Calculation Agent may, acting reasonably: (a) adjust one or more of the terms or provisions of the Facility as the Calculation Agent determines necessary to account for the effect of the Facility Adjustment Event or Potential

57

Facility Adjustment Event on the Facility in order to preserve the economic risk exposure of the Lender originally contemplated by the Margin Loan Documentation (unless the Calculation Agent determines that no such adjustment is necessary); and (b) determine the effective time of the adjustment (and may take into account, among other factors, volatility, correlation, liquidity and Free Float of the Common Shares or any other Collateral and any Restrictive Conditions or Transfer Restrictions prior to giving effect to the relevant event). Within two Business Days following the occurrence of any Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event, the Calculation Agent shall notify the Lender and the Borrowers of the adjustments to the terms or provisions of the Facility that it proposes to make in respect thereof, and the proposed effective time therefor (or its determination that no such adjustment is necessary). If, within three Business Days of receiving such notice, the Lender notifies the Calculation Agent and the Borrowers that it disagrees with such proposed adjustments or effective time (or the Calculation Agent’s determination that no such adjustment is necessary), and includes in such notice an alternative set of commercially reasonable adjustments that the Lender proposes to make in respect of such Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event that comply with the provisions set forth in Section 9.18(a) (which shall apply for this purpose as if the Lender were the Calculation Agent), and a proposed effective time therefor, then the Calculation Agent shall notify the Borrowers that such alternative adjustments apply as of such effective time. Except with the consent of, or at the direction of, the Lender, the Calculation Agent shall not make any adjustment in respect of a Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event or notify the Borrowers of its final determination that no such adjustment is necessary prior to the earlier of (i) the fifth Business Day following the occurrence thereof and (ii) its receipt of notice from the Lender of any alternative adjustments (and a proposed effective time therefor) or that it agrees with the Calculation Agent’s proposed adjustments (and the effective time therefor). Subject to Section 9.18, any such adjustments pursuant to this paragraph shall be binding on all parties to the Margin Loan Documentation and all such parties shall enter into such documentation required or reasonably requested by the Calculation Agent to reflect such adjustments.

Notices and other communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received, and notices and other communications sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, (x) other than in the case of a Collateral Call Notice, a Mandatory Prepayment Event Notice, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient or (y) in the case of a Collateral Call Notice or a Mandatory Prepayment Event Notice, if not given by the Collateral Call Notice Deadline or the Mandatory Prepayment Event Notice Deadline, as the case may be, on any Scheduled Trading Day, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Scheduled Trading Day). Notices and other communications delivered through electronic communications shall be effective as provided in Subsection (b).

(b) Electronic Communications. (i) Notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received when sent absent receipt of a failure to deliver notice within 30 minutes of such notice or communication being sent (it being understood that an “out of office” reply does not constitute a failure to deliver notice for this purpose); provided that (x) other than in the case of a Collateral Call Notice, a Mandatory Prepayment Event Notice, if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, or (y) in the case of a Collateral Call Notice or a Mandatory Prepayment Event Notice, if such notice or other communication is not sent by the Collateral Call Notice Deadline or the Mandatory Prepayment Event Notice Deadline, as the case may be, on any Scheduled Trading Day, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Scheduled Trading Day and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

(c) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrowers, the Lender and the Calculation Agent may change its address, facsimile, telephone number or e-mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. In addition, the Lender agrees to notify the Borrowers from time to time to ensure that the Borrowers have on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, facsimile number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for the Lender.

(d) Reliance by Lender. The Lender shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers or either of them. All telephonic notices to

60

and other telephonic communications with the Calculation Agent or the Lender may be recorded by the Calculation Agent or the Lender, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

Section 9.03. No Waiver; Remedies.

(a) No failure or delay of the Lender or the Calculation Agent in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Margin Loan Documentation shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder and under any other Margin Loan Documentation are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Margin Loan Documentation or consent to any departure by the Borrowers or either of them therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.01, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Calculation Agent and the Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Event of Default, regardless of whether the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Event of Default at the time.

(b) The Loans are made with full recourse to the Borrowers and constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Borrowers.

Section 9.04. Costs and Expenses; Indemnification; Damage Waiver.

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrowers shall pay promptly (i) all actual, reasonable and documented costs and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender and the Calculation Agent, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Lender and the Calculation Agent in connection with the Facility, including the preparation and administration of the Margin Loan Documentation or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of the Margin Loan Documentation (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), but provided that the Borrowers shall be required to pay only one-half of the costs of the Lender’s United States counsel in connection with the implementation of this Agreement; and (ii) all reasonable costs and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender and the Calculation Agent, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Lender and the Calculation Agent, in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Margin Loan Documentation, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

(b) Indemnification by Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Lender, the Calculation Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee

61

harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third-party or by the Borrowers or either of them or any Related Party of either Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, (i) this Agreement, any other Margin Loan Documentation or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the enforcement or protection of their rights hereunder and thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any hedging activities by any Indemnitee), any other Margin Loan Documentation or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) 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 Borrower or any other Related Party of a Borrower, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall 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 non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties or (y) arise out of any dispute among Indemnitees (other than a dispute involving claims against the Calculation Agent, in each case in its capacity as such) that did not involve actions or omissions of either Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates. This Section 9.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Margin Loan Documentation or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Subsection (b) above shall 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 Margin Loan Documentation or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such damages result from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnitee.

(d) Post-Default Hedging Costs. After (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default and (ii) acceleration of the Obligations, the Borrowers shall pay, on demand, the Lender’s costs (including the cost of put options), losses (including market losses), charges, fees, expenses, Taxes or duties of any kind directly relating to its acquisition, establishment, re-establishment, substitution, maintenance, unwinding or disposition of, or realization or recovery of the proceeds of, or any part thereof, any transaction(s) entered into by the Lender after the Event of Default to hedge the market risk of the Collateral. The Borrowers’ obligation under this Subsection (d) shall survive termination of the Facility.

(e) Reimbursement by Lender. To the extent that Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under clause (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by them to

62

the Calculation Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, the Lender agrees to pay to the Calculation Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Calculation Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Calculation Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

(f) Payments. All amounts due under this Section 9.04 shall be payable promptly and in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor.

(g) Survival. The agreements in this Section 9.04 shall survive the termination of the Facility and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

Section 9.05. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower is made to the Lender or the Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

Section 9.06. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) Governing Law. The Margin Loan Documentation shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceed may be heard and determined in such court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall 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 any other Margin Loan Documentation shall affect any right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation against the Borrowers or either of them or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Waiver of Venue. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation in any court referred to in Section 9.06(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent

63

permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Service of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.02(a). Nothing in this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.

(e) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER MARGIN LOAN DOCUMENTATION OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER MARGIN LOAN DOCUMENTATION BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 9.06(e).

Section 9.07. Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Margin Loan Documentation without the prior written consent of the Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) except for any assignments completed in compliance with Section 6.03. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Lender and the Calculation Agent) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. After the Closing Date, the Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans) so long as (unless a Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) such assignment does not result in increased costs to the Borrowers under Section 2.13 or Section 2.14 and the prior written consent of the Borrowers has been obtained. The assignee shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned, have the rights and obligations of the Lender under this Agreement, and the Lender shall, to the extent of the interest assigned, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an assignment covering all of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13, Section 2.14 and Section 9.14). The Borrowers hereby agree to execute any amendment and/or any other document that may be necessary to effectuate such an assignment.

64

(b) After the Closing Date, the Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities without the Borrowers’ consent (a “Participant”), in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation (including all or a portion of the Loans); provided that (i) the Lender’s obligations under the Margin Loan Documentation shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the Borrowers for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers and the Calculation Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Subject to Subsection (d) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 and Section 2.14 to the same extent as if it were the Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which the Lender sells such a participation shall provide that the Lender retains the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of thereof; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of any principal or interest payable in respect of any Loans. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.14 as though it were the Lender. The Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Margin Loan Documentation (the “Participant Register”); provided that the Lender shall have no obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in the Commitment, Loans or its other obligations under any Margin Loan Documentation) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(c) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 and Section 2.14 than the Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant’s entitlement to the benefits of Section 2.14 shall be subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(d) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(d) shall be delivered to the Lender).

(d) The Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of the Lender, and this Section 9.07 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto.

Section 9.08. Severability. Any provision of any Margin Loan Documentation held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to

65

the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.09. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each of the parties hereto and when each of the parties hereto shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including amendments or other modifications, a Borrowing Notice, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Lender, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law.

Section 9.10. Survival. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of the Margin Loan Documentation and the making of any Loans, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any other Obligation under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or unsatisfied. The provisions of Section 2.13, Section 2.14, Section 9.04 and Section 9.13 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the resignation or replacement of the Calculation Agent, the assignment of rights by the Lender or the termination of this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation any provision hereof or thereof

Section 9.11. Confidentiality. (a) The Calculation Agent and the Lender agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (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), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Lender (in which case the disclosing party agrees to inform the Borrowers promptly of such disclosure, unless such notice is prohibited by applicable Law and except in connection with any request as part of a regulatory examination), (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (in which case the disclosing party agrees to inform the Borrowers promptly of such disclosure to the extent permitted by law and except in connection with a regulatory examination of an audit or examination

66

conducted by bank accountants), (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any other Margin Loan Documentation, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.11, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative or hedging transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations hereunder or (C) any credit insurance provider, (vii) with the consent of the Borrowers or (viii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section by the Lender or (B) becomes available to the Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Borrower or its Affiliates or (C) is independently developed by the Lender without use of the Information. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers relating to the Borrowers or their business hereunder or pursuant hereto, other than any such information that is available to the Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the applicable Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from a Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.

2.2 Required Registration

(a) Subject to the limitations and other provisions hereof and Securities Laws, at any time and from time to time during the Registration Period, one or more Holders may request (each, a “Demand Offering Request”) the Issuer to file a Prospectus Supplement with the Canadian Securities Commissions and/or the SEC pursuant to an effective Registration Statement for the offering of all or (subject to Section 2.2(c)) any part of the Registrable Securities (such offering being hereinafter referred to as a “Demand Offering” and any Registration of such Demand Offering being hereinafter referred to as a “Demand Registration”). Each Demand Offering Request shall be in writing and shall specify the number of Registrable Securities to be sold by the Holders (the “Demand Registrable Securities”), the method of disposition of such Demand Registrable Securities and the jurisdictions (which may only include one or more of the provinces of Canada and/or the United States) in which the Holders request that the Demand Offering be effected for such Demand Registrable Securities. The Prospectus Supplement for any such Demand Offering shall be filed promptly with, in the case of a Canadian Offering, the applicable Canadian Securities Commissions or, in the case of a U.S. Offering, the SEC, as applicable, after a Demand Offering Request is received by the Issuer; provided, however, if the Demand Offering Request is only in respect of a U.S. Offering, the Issuer shall also file such Prospectus Supplement (or a corresponding Canadian version of such Prospectus Supplement, as applicable) in any applicable province of Canada if and solely to the extent required for the purposes of such U.S. Offering under the requirements of MJDS or applicable Canadian Securities Laws. The Issuer shall not be obligated to effect more than three Demand Offerings in total during the Registration Period. For the purposes of this subsection 2.2(a), a Demand Offering will not be considered as having been effected until (i) a Prospectus Supplement pursuant to which the Demand Registrable Securities are to be sold has been filed with the applicable Canadian Securities Commissions and/or the SEC, as applicable, (ii) the Holders have withdrawn its request for the Demand Offering in writing or (iii) the applicable Holders have failed to fulfill their respective obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Demand Offering. In the event that the Issuer proposes to offer and sell its securities as part of any Demand Offering requested by the Holders under this Agreement, and if the managing underwriter or underwriters (selected as provided for in Section 2.3) advise the Issuer in good faith that the inclusion of the securities requested by the Issuer to be included in such offering will likely, in their opinion, have an adverse effect on the distribution or sales price of the Demand Registrable Securities in such offering, then the number of securities to be offered by the Issuer for its own account in such offering shall be reduced as necessary to avoid such adverse effect.

(b) The Issuer shall be entitled to postpone the filing of a Prospectus Supplement otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it pursuant hereto (or withdraw any Prospectus Supplement that has been filed by it pursuant hereto) if, at the time it receives a Demand Offering Request or before a Demand Offering has been completed, the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Issuer, in his or her good faith judgment, determines that the Demand Offering should not be initiated or completed because (i) it would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other

- 10 -

transaction involving the Issuer, (ii) it would require the Issuer to disclose any material non-public information which would reasonably be likely to be detrimental to the Issuer and the Issuer gives prompt notice of such determination to the Holders, (iii) a Prospectus, or the documents incorporated by reference therein, require amendment or supplement to comply with the Securities Laws, provided that in the case of (iii) such postponement shall be limited to the period of time reasonably required for the Issuer to make such amendment or supplement, but in no event for a period of more than 30 days commencing on the date on which Issuer notifies the Holders, or (iv) a Blackout Period is in effect. Any postponement pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) must be confirmed by a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Issuer and delivered to the Holders.

(c) The Issuer shall not be required to effect a Demand Offering in connection with an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities unless the Demand Registrable Securities have an aggregate market price of at least $50 million. Market price for the purposes of the foregoing shall be calculated on the basis of the average of the volume weighted average trading prices of the Common Shares on the TSX on each of the 15 trading days immediately preceding the delivery by the Holders to the Issuer of the request for the Demand Offering.

(d) Subject to Section 2.2(e), if during the Registration Period the Issuer proposes to file a Prospectus Supplement in Canada and/or the United States in order to offer its Common Shares pursuant to an underwritten offering (excluding, for greater certainty, any offering in connection with a merger, acquisition or other business combination or an offering solely to then existing securityholders of the Issuer) for its own account (a “Treasury Offering”), in a form and manner that, with appropriate changes to the documentation to reflect the addition of a secondary offering, would permit the offering of Registrable Securities under such Prospectus Supplement, the Issuer shall give notice in accordance with Section 6.2 of its intention to do so to the Holders not less than 5 Business Days in advance of the anticipated filing date of the Prospectus Supplement and, within 3 Business Days of the Issuer sending such notice to the Holders (or such shorter period as is provided therefor in Section 2.2(e), the “Piggy Back Notice Period”), the Holders have the right to request in writing to the Issuer (such request hereinafter referred to as “Piggy Back Offering Request”) to include (and upon such request being received by the Issuer within the Piggy Back Notice Period, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include) in the Treasury Offering such number of Registrable Securities (the “Piggy Back Registrable Securities”, and together with the Demand Registrable Securities, the “Designated Registrable Securities”) as the Holders shall request (any Registration of Piggy Back Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to such request hereinafter referred to as a “Piggy Back Registration”, and together with a Demand Registration, a “Secondary Registration”) upon the same terms (including the method of distribution) as such Treasury Offering; provided that (i) the Issuer shall not be required to include all such Piggy Back Registrable Securities in any such Treasury Offering if the Issuer is advised in good faith by its managing underwriter or underwriters that the inclusion of any such Piggy Back Registrable Securities will likely, in their opinion, have an adverse effect on the distribution or sales price of the securities being offered by the Issuer, in which case the number of Piggy Back Registrable Securities shall be reduced as

- 11 -

necessary, and (ii) the Issuer may at any time, at its sole discretion and without the consent of the applicable Holders, withdraw such Prospectus Supplement and abandon the proposed Treasury Offering regardless of whether it was to include any Piggy Back Registrable Securities; provided, that the Issuer will pay the Registration Expenses in connection with such withdrawn Prospectus Supplement. The failure of the Issuer to receive the Holders’ response within the Piggy Back Notice Period shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Holders’ rights under this subsection 2.2(d) with respect to the corresponding Treasury Offering. The Holders may also waive all their rights under this subsection 2.2(d) by giving written notice to the Issuer, either in advance or following the Piggy Back Notice Period. No offering of Registrable Securities under this subsection 2.2(d) shall relieve the Issuer of its obligations to effect Demand Offerings pursuant to subsection 2.2(a) hereof.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Issuer proposes to effect a Treasury Offering by way of a “bought deal”, or another public offering which is not expected to include a road show, (i) the notice periods set forth in Section 2.2(d) shall not be applicable, (ii) the Issuer shall give the Holders such notice of the Treasury Offering as is practicable under the circumstances (given the speed and urgency with which bought deals or such other public offerings are then carried out in common market practice) of its rights to participate thereunder and (iii) in lieu of the 5-Business Day Piggy Back Notice Period provided for in in Section 2.2(d), the Holders shall instead have only such time to make a Piggy Back Offering Request as is practicable under the circumstances, and sufficiently in advance of the execution of the bought deal letter (in the case of a “bought deal” offering) or announcement of such public offering, as applicable, to notify the Issuer that one or more Holders wish to participate in such Treasury Offering, failing which, the Issuer shall be free to pursue the bought deal or such other public offering without the participation of the Holders.

(f) For greater certainty, notwithstanding any participation by the Holders in a Treasury Offering pursuant to subsection 2.2(d), the terms and manner of sale for any Treasury Offering, including the jurisdictions in which it is effected, shall be within the sole discretion of the Issuer.

2.3 Selection of Underwriters for Underwritten Demand Offerings

Upon requesting a Demand Offering for an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities, the Holders shall, with the approval of the Issuer (provided such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to effect the distribution in connection with such underwritten Demand Offering, it being acknowledged by the Holders that the participation of a registrant shall be required in Canada and/or a registered broker-dealer in the United States (as applicable) in connection with each underwritten Demand Offering hereunder and it being further acknowledged that the investment banker(s) and/or manager(s) selected by the Holders must be of nationally recognized standing in the United States and/or Canada (as applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holders acknowledge that the Issuer shall have the sole right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to effect the distribution in connection with any Piggy Back Offering.

- 12 -

2.4 Registration Expenses and Selling Expenses

Except as expressly provided below and in Section 2.2(d), the Issuer shall be responsible for all Registration Expenses on any Registration Offering; provided that, in the event any Registrable Securities are Freely Tradeable at the time that the Issuer receives the Offering Request, the Investor and the Holders shall be jointly and severally responsible for the proportionate share of any Registration Expenses of any Holders in any Registration based on the total offering price of the Freely Tradable Registrable Securities sold by the Holders in any such Registration Offering, as applicable, to the total offering price of all of the securities sold by the Issuer in any such Registration Offering. The Investor and the Holders shall be jointly and severally responsible for paying all Selling Expenses with respect to any Registrable Securities sold by the Holders, the Issuer will pay all Selling Expenses with respect to any securities sold for the account of the Issuer and any other Person that sells securities will pay all Selling Expenses in respect of the securities of such Person sold, if any, in each case, in connection with such Registration Offering. For greater certainty, the Investor and the Holders shall be solely responsible on a joint and several basis for any and all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Holders in connection with any Registration Offering.

2.5 Other Registration Rights

The Issuer represents and warrants to the Holders that it has not entered into, and covenants with the Holders that it will not enter into, any agreement granting registration rights in respect of any equity securities of the Issuer which are adverse to or violate the rights granted to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement; provided that no agreement granting rights to a third party to sell securities as part of a Treasury Offering that may have the effect of reducing the number of Piggy Back Registrable Securities that may be included in a Piggy Back Offering shall be considered to be adverse to or a violation of the rights granted to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement.

2.6 Transfer of Rights

(a) The rights of a Holder under this Agreement may, in the Holder’s discretion and without the consent of the Issuer, be assigned, in whole or in part, to one or more Affiliates of Brookfield who at the time of such assignment beneficially owns Registrable Securities and agrees in writing with the Issuer to be subject to and bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For clarity, a Holder may not assign any of its rights under this Agreement to a Person other than an Affiliate of Brookfield and in the case of an assignment of the rights hereunder in respect of less than all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities, no such assignment will limit or otherwise impair the assignor’s rights or obligations under this Agreement. The Holder shall provide the Issuer with written notice prior to such assignment (and such assignment shall not be effective if such notice has not been provided) stating the name and address of the assignee, identifying the Registrable Securities beneficially owned by such assignee.

(b) The rights of the Investor under this Agreement may only be assigned, in whole but not in part, to an Affiliate of Brookfield who at the time of such assignment agrees with the Issuer in writing to be subject to and bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any assignment pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) shall not be effective unless prior written notice of such assignment to the Issuer is given identifying the name and address of the assignee.

2.7 Suspension of Registration

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the party that is the “Investor” under the Investment Agreement is in breach of any of its covenants in Section 4.3, 4.5, 4.6 or 4.9 of the Investment Agreement, all of the rights of the Investor and the Holders to cause the Issuer to effect the Registration of Registerable Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be suspended until such time as the “Investor” under the Investment Agreement has cured all breaches of such covenants in accordance with the Investment Agreement; provided that if the breaches cannot be cured, or are of a nature that makes them incapable of being cured, under the Investment Agreement, the Issuer may, without the consent of the Investor or any of the Holders, terminate this Agreement.

The Issuer agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the Holders and each Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of the Designated Registrable Securities, their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each Person who controls any Holder or any such underwriter against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or based upon: (i) any information or statement contained in the Prospectus, any filing made in connection with the registration under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of a jurisdiction of the United States or any amendment thereto which at the time and in light of the circumstances under which it was made contains or is alleged to contain a misrepresentation; (ii) any order made or inquiry, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened by any applicable Canadian Securities Commission, court or other competent authority based upon any misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation in the Prospectus or any amendment thereto or based upon any failure or alleged failure to comply with applicable Securities Laws (other than any failure to comply with applicable Securities Laws by the Holder or the underwriter or underwriters which is not as a result of a failure or alleged failure of the Issuer to comply with applicable Securities Laws); and (iii) non-compliance by the Issuer with any of the Securities Laws in connection with a Secondary Registration and the distribution effected thereunder, except in the case of any of the foregoing insofar as (A) any information or statement referred to in clause (i) or (ii) of this subsection 4.2(a) has been furnished in writing to the Issuer by the Holders or the underwriter or underwriters expressly for use therein pursuant to subsection 3.2(a) or Section 4.1; or (B) any amounts paid in settlement of any claim have been paid if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Issuer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) By the Holders

- 18 -

The Holders agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the Issuer and each Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of the Designated Registrable Securities, their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each Person who controls such underwriter against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or based upon: (i) any information or statement contained in the Prospectus, any filing made in connection with the registration under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of a jurisdiction of the United States or any amendment thereto which has been furnished to the Issuer by the Holders in writing expressly for use therein pursuant to subsection 3.2(a) or Section 4.1 which at the time and in light of the circumstances under which it was made contains a misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation; and (ii) any order made or inquiry, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened by any applicable Canadian Securities Commission, court or other competent authority based upon any misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation in the Prospectus or any amendment thereto based upon any information or statement which has been furnished to the Issuer by the Holders in writing expressly for use therein pursuant to subsection 3.2(a) or Section 4.1, or based upon any failure or alleged failure to comply with applicable Securities Laws (other than any failure to comply with applicable Securities Laws by the Issuer or the underwriter or underwriters which is not as a result of a failure or alleged failure of a Holder to comply with applicable Securities Laws), except in the case of any of the foregoing insofar as any amounts paid in settlement of any claim have been paid if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Holders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) Procedure

Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that any failure to give notice pursuant to this Section 4.2(c) shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 4.2 except and only to the extent such failure to give notice results in any prejudice against such indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party, acting reasonably.

An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party may settle any claims without the express written consent of an indemnified party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed where such consent does not contain any admission of liability).

(d) Survival; Contribution

The indemnification provisions provided for under this Agreement will survive the expiry of this Agreement and will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive any transfer of securities pursuant thereto. In the event the indemnification is unavailable in whole or in part for any reason under this Section 4.2, the Issuer and the Holders shall contribute to the aggregate of all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Issuer and the Holders in connection with the event giving rise to liability.

(e) Holder is Trustee

The Issuer hereby acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to this Section 4.2, each Holder is contracting on its own behalf and as agent for the other indemnified persons referred to in Section 4.2(a). In this regard, each Holder will act as trustee for such indemnified persons of the covenants of the Issuer under this Section 4.2 with respect to such indemnified persons and accepts these trusts and will hold and enforce those covenants on behalf of such indemnified persons.

(f) Issuer is Trustee
