ARTICLE 2

GOVERNANCE

2.1

Board of Directors

The Board will be comprised of three to fifteen members, initially being comprised of nine members, not less than 25% of whom shall be “resident Canadian” as defined in the Act. ATS shall initially elect three members of the Board.

Following the date of this Agreement, ATS shall have the following rights of nomination:

	(a)		as long as the Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares is not less than 40%, ATS shall have the right to nominate for election to the Board a number of directors of the Board representing 25% of the directors of the Board rounded down to the nearest whole number, provided that, if the Board is to consist of at least six directors, the number of ATS nominees shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number; and

	(b)		as long as the Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares is 10% or more, but less than 40%, ATS shall have the right to designate one nominee for election as a director of the Board.

Photowatt shall nominate for election to the Board the balance of the number of directors to be elected after establishing the number of directors ATS determines to nominate in accordance with the foregoing. Photowatt shall solicit proxies in favour of the election of ATS’ nominees and exercise such proxies and otherwise use its commercial reasonable efforts to secure the election of ATS’ nominees as members of the Board.

Upon the Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares falling below 40% but not less than 10%, all of the nominees of ATS to the Board except for one shall resign within 90 days or at such earlier date as a meeting of the Shareholders is convened by Photowatt to elect directors. Upon the Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares falling below 10%, the nominee of ATS to the Board shall resign within 90 days or at such earlier date as a meeting of the Shareholders is convened by Photowatt to elect directors.

ATS will be entitled at any time and in its sole discretion, subject to applicable Law and this section, by direction in writing to remove any one or more of its nominees and, so long as it and/or its Affiliates hold the requisite Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares, nominate a successor who will, promptly upon the resignation of the existing director, be appointed by the Board as a director to replace the individual previously nominated. If a director nominated by ATS ceases to be a director for any reason (other than ATS and its Affiliates ceasing to hold the requisite Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares), ATS will nominate a successor to fill the resulting vacancy as soon as practicable thereafter (so long as ATS and/or its Affiliates continue to hold the requisite Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares). If ATS fails for any reason to nominate a successor to fill a vacancy within 30 days after the vacancy arises, the Board will appoint an individual to fill the vacancy, who shall undertake to Photowatt and ATS to serve as a

- 9 -

director until a successor is nominated by ATS, at which point such individual shall resign and the nominee of ATS shall be appointed by the Board as a director.

In the event of the proposed removal of any director nominated by ATS other than a removal proposed by ATS in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, Photowatt agrees to solicit proxies against the removal of such ATS nominee and exercise such proxies and otherwise use its commercial reasonable efforts to defeat such proposed removal.

The provisions of this Agreement shall not limit the right attaching to the Common Shares beneficially owned or controlled by ATS or any of its Affiliates or the exercise thereof.

2.2

Committees of the Board

The Board will have (a) an audit committee; (b) a compensation and governance committee; and (c) such other committees, if any, as determined from time to time by the Board. Each committee will consist of three to five members. Initially the audit committee will consist of three members and the compensation and governance committee will consist of four members.

Each director is entitled to receive notice of each Board committee meeting, concurrent with that received by the members of such committees; to attend and fully participate but not to vote at each Board committee meeting; to receive all information delivered to Board committee members, concurrent with the delivery thereof to such members; and to receive, upon request to Photowatt, all information to which any Board committee member, is entitled.

2.3

Quorum

A quorum for a meeting of the Board shall require:

	(a)		a majority of the number of directors, subject to the Canadian residency requirements of the Act; and

	(b)		so long as the Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares is not less than 40%, at least one of the nominees of ATS.

In the event that a quorum is not achieved or maintained for a meeting of the Board (an “initial directors meeting”), any two directors may call a meeting of the Board by proper notice to be held on a date no earlier than the fifth Business Day following the initial directors meeting solely to address the business proposed at the initial directors meeting. A quorum for such further meeting of the Board (a “subsequent directors meeting”) shall exclude the requirements of Section 2.3(b) of this Agreement.

A quorum for a meeting of any committee of the Board shall require a majority of the committee members, subject to the Canadian residency requirements of the Act.

- 10 -

2.4

Decisions of Directors

In order to be effective, a decision of the Board must be approved either by a resolution passed by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors present and entitled to vote thereon at a meeting of directors duly called and at which a quorum of directors are present, or by an instrument signed by all the directors.

2.5

Meetings of Shareholders

A meeting of Shareholders shall be called by Photowatt upon written request by any two directors of the Board within 30 days of receipt of any such request.

2.6

Casting Vote

The chair of any meeting of the Board, committee of the Board or Shareholders will not have a casting vote.

2.7

Business and Affairs of Photowatt

Each of the Parties to this Agreement will do everything in its power to cause such meetings to be held, votes to be cast, resolutions to be passed, by-laws to be made and confirmed, documents to be executed and all other things and acts to be done to ensure that, at all times, to the extent permitted by Law, the composition and operation of the Board and the operation of the business and affairs of Photowatt comply with the terms of this Article 2 and with the entirety of this Agreement.

2.8

Transactions with ATS

Any material commercial transaction that Photowatt proposes to enter into after the Effective Date with ATS or any of its Affiliates that is not contemplated by the Separation Agreements must be considered and approved by the Independent directors of Photowatt who are not nominees of ATS.

2.9

Certain Matters Requiring Approval of ATS

For so long as the Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares is not less than 50%, Photowatt shall not, and shall not permit any member of the Photowatt Group to, without the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board and the written consent of ATS as a Shareholder (which ATS may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion):

(a)

enter into any merger, amalgamation, plan of arrangement, consolidation, business combination, joint venture or other material corporate transaction, including the acquisition of any business or securities of any other Person (other than a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Photowatt) or acquisition, license, lease, exchange of Assets (other than inventory items acquired in the ordinary course of business in connection with the Photowatt Business) or assume any Obligations of any Person, in each case with an aggregate fair market value in excess of $50 million;

	(e)		other than pursuant to share compensation arrangements in respect of employees, officers, consultants, or directors of Photowatt or any member of the Photowatt Group approved by the Board and Shareholders, enter into any agreement or make any offer or grant any right capable of becoming an agreement to allot or issue a number of Common Shares or Convertible Securities where the aggregate number of Common Shares to be issued or allotted exceeds 5% of the total number of Common Shares then outstanding on a non-diluted basis;

	(f)		take, or cause to be taken, directly or indirectly, any action (including the making or failing to make any election under a Law) that has the effect, directly or indirectly, of restricting or limiting the ability of ATS or any of its Affiliates to freely Transfer Common Shares or would restrict or limit the rights of any transferee of ATS or any of its Affiliates as a holder of Common Shares and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Photowatt shall not take any action, or recommend to its shareholders any action, which would limit the legal rights of, or deny any benefit to, ATS or any of its Affiliates as a holder of Common Shares either (i) solely as a result of the amount of Common Shares owned by ATS or any of its Affiliates or (ii) in a manner not applicable to holders of Common Shares generally;

	(g)		enter into a partnership or any arrangement for the sharing of profits, union of interests, joint venture or reciprocal concession with any Person if the aggregate fair market value of the assets contributed and liabilities assumed by the Photowatt Group in connection therewith either exceeds on formation or at any time in the future could reasonably be expected to exceed $50 million; or

	(h)		make any commitment or agreement to do any of the foregoing.

Each of the above matters must be presented to the Board of Directors for decision, and may not be delegated to any committee of the Board of Directors or to the management of Photowatt or any Subsidiary.

All financial information to be provided by any Photowatt Group member to ATS pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP, and where practicable, consistent in terms of format and detail and otherwise with the policies of ATS with respect to the application of Canadian GAAP and practices with respect to the provisions of such financial information by such Photowatt Group member to ATS (and, where appropriate, as presently presented in financial reports to ATS’ board of directors), with such changes therein as may be requested by ATS from time to time consistent with changes in such accounting policies, principles and practices; provided, however, that the Parties acknowledge that Photowatt shall report its results in U.S. dollars and shall include in the notes to its financial statements a reconciliation quantifying all material differences between its financial statements as presented and its financial statements as they would be presented if they had been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

All financial information to be filed with the Securities Regulator by any Photowatt Group member shall, to the extent prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles other than Canadian GAAP, be prepared on the same basis and in the same form as the financial information as set forth in the preceding paragraph with such modifications as necessary to the extent of any differences between such generally accepted accounting principles and Canadian GAAP, any such modifications to be reviewed by the Photowatt Group member with ATS and approved by ATS not later than the required time of delivery of such financial information to ATS in accordance with this Agreement.

In additional to the foregoing and subject to applicable Law, no Photowatt Public Documents or any other document that refers to or contains information not previously publicly disclosed in respect of ATS, including, but not limited to the ownership of Photowatt by ATS, the Separation Agreements, or the separation of Photowatt and ATS, shall be filed with the Securities Regulator or otherwise made public by any Photowatt Group member without the prior written consent of ATS.

(j)

Other Information

With reasonable promptness, Photowatt shall deliver to ATS such additional financial and other information and data with respect to the members of the Photowatt Group and their respective business, properties, financial positions, results of operations and prospects as from time to time may be reasonably requested by ATS.

Photowatt and ATS shall consult each

- 17 -

other as to the timing of any financial guidance for a current or future period and shall give each other the opportunity to review the information therein relating to the Photowatt Group and to comment thereon. Photowatt shall issue its annual and quarterly earnings releases prior to ATS issuing its respective annual and quarterly earnings releases. No later than eight hours prior to the time and date (or, if the same will be published before noon, no later than 5 p.m. Toronto, Ontario, time on the previous Business Day) at which Photowatt intends to publish its regular annual or quarterly earnings release or any financial guidance for a current or future period, Photowatt shall deliver to ATS copies of substantially final drafts of all press releases and other statements to be made available by any Affiliate of Photowatt to employees of any Affiliate of Photowatt or to the public concerning any matters that could be reasonably likely to have a material financial impact on the earnings, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of any Photowatt Group member.

Photowatt shall provide to ATS all information ATS reasonably requests in connection with any ATS Public Filings or that, in the judgment of legal advisors to ATS, is required to be disclosed or incorporated by reference therein under applicable Law. Photowatt shall provide such information in a timely manner on the dates requested by ATS to enable ATS to prepare, print and release all ATS Public Filings on dates as ATS shall determine but in no event later than is required by applicable Law.

If and to the extent requested by ATS, Photowatt shall diligently and promptly review all drafts of such ATS Public Filings and prepare in a diligent and timely fashion any portion of such ATS Public Filings pertaining to Photowatt.

Prior to any printing or public release of any ATS Public Filings, an appropriate executive officer of Photowatt shall, if requested by ATS, certify that the information relating to any Photowatt Group member or the Photowatt Business in such ATS Public Filings is accurate, true, complete and correct in all material respects.

- 18 -

Unless required by Law, Photowatt shall not publicly release any financial or other information that conflicts with the information with respect to any Photowatt Group member or the Photowatt Business that is included in any ATS Public Filings without ATS’ prior written consent.

Auditors and Accounting

(a)

Audit Timing

Photowatt shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enable its (and its Affiliates’) independent auditors (the “Photowatt Auditors”) to complete their audit such that they may date their opinion on Photowatt Annual Financial Statements on the same date that ATS’ independent auditors (the “ATS Auditors”) date their opinion on ATS Annual Financial Statements, and to enable ATS to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of ATS Annual Financial Statements, all in accordance with this Agreement and as required by applicable Law. Photowatt shall request that the Photowatt Auditors date their opinion on Photowatt Annual Financial Statements on the same date that the ATS Auditors date their opinion on ATS Annual Financial Statements.

(b)

Information Needed by ATS

Photowatt shall provide to ATS on a timely basis all information ATS reasonably requires to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing, filing and public dissemination of ATS Annual Financial Statements in accordance with this Agreement and as required by applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Photowatt shall provide all required financial information with respect to the Photowatt Group to the Photowatt Auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit

- 19 -

the Photowatt Auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to the ATS Auditors with respect to information to be included or contained in ATS Annual Financial Statements.

(c)

Access to Photowatt Auditors

Photowatt shall authorize the Photowatt Auditors to make available to the ATS Auditors both the personnel who performed, or are performing, the annual audit of Photowatt and work papers related to the annual audit of Photowatt, in all cases within a reasonable time prior to the opinion date for the Photowatt Auditors, so that the ATS Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the Photowatt Auditors as it relates to the report of the ATS Auditors on ATS Financial Statements, all within sufficient time to enable ATS to meet the timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of ATS Annual Financial Statements.

(d)

Access to Records

If ATS determines in good faith that there may be an inaccuracy in a Photowatt Group member’s financial statements or deficiency in a Photowatt Group member’s internal accounting controls or operation that could materially impact ATS Financial Statements, at the request of ATS, Photowatt shall provide to ATS’ internal auditors access to the Photowatt Group member’s books and records so that ATS may conduct reasonable audits relating to the financial statements provided by Photowatt under this Agreement as well as to the internal accounting controls and operations of the Photowatt Group.

(e)

Notice of Changes

Subject to sections above under the heading “Auditors and Accounting”, Photowatt shall give ATS as much prior notice as reasonably practicable of any proposed determination of, or significant changes in, Photowatt’s accounting estimates or accounting principles, policies or practices from those in effect on the date of the audited financial statements included in the Prospectus. Photowatt shall consult with ATS and, if requested by ATS, Photowatt (and the Photowatt Auditors, if requested) shall consult with the ATS Auditors with respect to any such proposed determination or change. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, Photowatt shall not make any such determination or changes without prior written consent of ATS if such determination or change would be sufficiently material to be required to be disclosed in financial statements or other disclosure documents filed by Photowatt or ATS with a Securities Regulator.

(f)

Accounting Changes Requested by ATS

Notwithstanding the section entitled “Notice of Changes” above, unless prohibited by applicable Law, Photowatt shall make any changes in its accounting

- 20 -

estimates or accounting policies or practices that are practicable in order for Photowatt’s accounting policies or practices to be consistent with those of ATS.

(g)

Special Reports of Deficiencies or Violations

Photowatt shall report in reasonable detail to ATS any of the following events or circumstances promptly after any executive officer of Photowatt or any member of the Board of Directors becomes aware of such matter:

	(i)		any significant deficiency or material weakness in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting that is reasonably likely to adversely affect Photowatt’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information;

	(ii)		any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the internal control over financial reporting to Photowatt;

	(iii)		any illegal act within the meaning of Section 10A(b) and (f) of the Exchange Act; and

	(iv)		any report of a material violation of Law that an attorney representing any Photowatt Group member has formally made to any officers or directors of Photowatt pursuant to the SEC’s attorney conduct rules (17 C.F.R. Part 205).

3.3

Future Financial Reporting and Disclosure

Subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, Photowatt agrees that for so long as ATS is required to account for its investment in Photowatt under the equity method of accounting (determined in accordance with Canadian GAAP and applicable Laws, and consistent with Canadian Securities Regulatory Authorities and SEC reporting requirements), Photowatt shall provide ATS, in a timely fashion and in any event in sufficient time to allow ATS to meet its financial and legal obligations (including, but not limited to, any obligations relating to disclosure control or internal control over financial reporting that ATS deems necessary), with financial and other information and data with respect to the members of the Photowatt Group and their respective business, properties, financial positions, results of operations and prospects, and otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 3.1(a) through (l) and Section 3.2(a) through (g) to the extent reasonably requested by ATS, having regard to ATS’ financial and legal obligations, the minimization of efforts by ATS that are duplicative with those of Photowatt’s and resulting additional expense to ATS in fulfilling those obligations, and any other considerations relevant in the circumstances.

ARTICLE 4

GENERAL PROVISIONS

4.1

Assignment

Neither Party shall assign, transfer or otherwise alienate any or all of its rights or interest under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of the other Party, which in the case of the consent of ATS, may be granted or withheld in ATS’ sole discretion, and in the case of the consent of Photowatt, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed unless the proposed assignee is a Person that is directly or indirectly engaged in any development, production, manufacture, marketing, distribution, promotion or sale of products competitive with the products of the Photowatt Group in any country in the world in which any member of the Photowatt Group conducts its business and the sale of such competitive products exceeds 20% of Photowatt’s consolidated revenues in its most recently completed financial year preceding the proposed date of assignment, transfer or alienation, as the case may be, in which case the consent of Photowatt may be granted or withheld in Photowatt’s sole discretion; provided, however, ATS may assign any or all of its rights or interest under this Agreement to any Affiliate of ATS without the consent of Photowatt. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and thereto, respectively, and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and any permitted assignee shall agree to perform the obligations of the assignor of this Agreement. In the event that the rights of ATS referred to under Section 2.9 are transferred, assigned or alienated to a non-ATS affiliate, such rights shall expire on the 90^th day following the date of such transfer, assignment or alienation. Any attempted transfer, assignment or alienation in violation of this Section 4.1 shall be invalid and ineffective ab initio.

4.2

Entire Agreement

This Agreement and the other Separation Agreements constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede (a) all prior oral or written proposals or agreements, (b) all contemporaneous oral proposals or agreements and (c) all previous negotiations and all other communications or understandings between the Parties, in each case with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. No reliance is placed on any warranty, representation, opinion, advice or assertion of fact made either prior to, contemporaneous with, or after entering into this Agreement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, by any Party to this Agreement or its directors, officers and agents, to any other Party to this Agreement or its directors, officers and agents except to the extent that the same has been reduced to writing and included as a term of the Separation Agreements, and none of the Parties to this Agreement has been induced to enter into this Agreement or any amendment or supplement by reason of any such warranty, representation, opinion, advice or assertion of fact. Accordingly, there will be no liability, either in tort (including negligence) or in Contract, assessed in relation to any such warranty, representation, opinion, advice or assertion of fact, except to the extent contemplated above.

- 22 -

4.3

Directors and Officers’ Indemnities and Insurance

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Photowatt will indemnify all directors, officers, former directors and former officers of Photowatt, ATS (to the extent that ATS exercises the rights, powers, duties and liabilities of directors of Photowatt), and their heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with Photowatt, if such individual

	(a)		acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Photowatt; and

	(b)		in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the individual had reasonable grounds for believing that the individual’s conduct was lawful.

Photowatt will advance moneys to an individual referred to in this Section 4.3 for the costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding referred to in this Section 4.3. The individual will repay the moneys if the individual does not fulfil the conditions of this Section 4.3.

The intention of this Section 4.3 is that all persons referred to in this Section 4.3 will have all benefits provided under the indemnification provisions of the Act to the fullest extent permitted by law, and Photowatt will forthwith pass all resolutions and take such other steps as may be required to give full effect to this Section 4.3.

For a period of seven years from the date ATS ceases to have the right to nominate any member of the Board, this Agreement and the articles and by-laws of Photowatt (and its successors) will not be modified or amended to diminish any current or past nominee’s right to indemnification and exculpation as is currently provided. Furthermore, so long as ATS is entitled to nominate a member of the Board and thereafter so long as any past or present ATS nominee may be subject to any possible civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other action or proceeding to which he or she would be made a party by reason of being a director of Photowatt, Photowatt will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain in full force and effect, for directors and officers of Photowatt, one or more policies of directors and officers’ insurance issued by a reputable insurer or insurers having a policy limits and a retention equal to or better than the amounts of Photowatt’s policy now in force (to the extent commercially available and at rates not substantially in excess of current rates). Furthermore, Photowatt agrees that each ATS nominee will be covered under such insurance policy in a manner as to provide him or her with the same rights and benefits as are accorded Photowatt’s directors most favourably insured by the policy.

4.4

Term

This Agreement will continue in force until the earlier of:

(a)

the date on which this Agreement is terminated by the written agreement of the Parties; and

- 23 -

(b) such time as the Percentage of Outstanding Common Shares is less than 10%.

4.5

Termination Not to Affect Rights or Obligations

Termination of this Agreement will not affect or prejudice any rights or obligations which have accrued or arisen under this Agreement prior to the time of termination and such rights and obligations, including any indemnities, will survive the termination of this Agreement. For greater certainty, no termination of this Agreement will affect the rights of any Person under Section 4.3.

4.6

Future Litigation and Other Proceedings

If any member of the Photowatt Group (or any of its Representatives) or any member of the ATS Group (or any of its Representatives) at any time after the Effective Date initiates or becomes subject to any Action with respect to which the Parties have no prior agreements (as to indemnification or otherwise), upon reasonable notice (a) the Party (and its Group members and its and their respective Representatives) that has not initiated and is not subject to such Action shall comply, at the other Party’s expense, with any reasonable requests by the other Party for assistance in connection with such Action (including by way of provision of information and making available of Representatives as witnesses) and (b) each Party (and its Representatives) shall, at its own expense, coordinate with the other Party its strategies and actions with respect to such Action to the extent such coordination would not be detrimental to its interests and shall comply, at the expense of the requesting Party, with any reasonable requests of the other Party for assistance in connection therewith (including by way of provision of information and making available of Representatives as witnesses).

In the event of any such excused delay, the time for performance shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay; provided however that the Party seeking to excuse its performance shall promptly notify the other Party of the cause therefor, such performance shall be so excused during the inability of the Party to perform so caused, but for no longer period, and the cause thereof shall be remedied as far as is commercially reasonable with all reasonable dispatch.

4.13

Specific Performance

In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the Party or Parties who are or are to be thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.
