THE NOTES

2.1 Limit of Notes

The aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized to be issued under this Indenture is unlimited, but Notes may be issued only upon and subject to the conditions and limitations herein set forth.

2.2 Form and Terms of Notes

(a) The Notes authorized for issuance hereunder shall be designated as “8.0% Convertible Unsecured Notes” and shall initially be issued pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

(b) The Notes shall be dated as of the date of the closing of the Arrangement, or such other date or dates of issuance as provided herein, as confirmed in a Written Direction of the Corporation to issue the Notes in all instances.

(d) The Notes shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. Each Note and the certificate of the Trustee endorsed thereon shall be issued in substantially the form set out in Schedule “A”, with such insertions, omissions, substitutions or other variations as shall be required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such legend or legends or endorsements, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, as may be required to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations pursuant thereto or with any rules or regulations of any securities exchange or securities regulatory authority or to conform with general usage, all as may be determined by the Board of Directors executing such Note in accordance with Section 2.6, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of a Note. Each Note shall additionally bear such distinguishing letters and numbers as the Trustee shall approve. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Note may be in such other form or forms as may, from time to time, be approved by a resolution of the Board of Directors, or as specified in an Officers’ Certificate. The Notes may be engraved, lithographed, printed, mimeographed or typewritten or partly in one form and partly in another.

(e) The Notes shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Notes and/or one or more Definitive Notes at the option of the Corporation.

(f) The Global Notes will be registered in the name of the Depository which, as of the date hereof, shall be CDS (or any nominee of the Depository). No beneficial holder will receive definitive certificates representing their interest in Notes except as provided in this Section 2.2 and Section 3.2. A Global Note may be exchanged for Definitive Notes, or transferred to and registered in the name of a person other than the Depository for such Global Notes or a nominee thereof, as provided in Section 3.2.

(g) The Definitive Notes will be registered in the names of each holder thereof as provided in Section 3.1. A Definitive Note may be exchanged, or transferred to and registered in the name of a person other than the registered holder thereof, as provided in Section 3.2.

(h) Notes may be issued in certificated or uncertificated form. All Notes bearing the legend within Section 2.12 shall be in certificated form only. All Notes issued to the Depository may be in either a certificated or uncertificated form, such uncertificated form being evidenced by a book position on the register of Noteholders to be maintained by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, subject to Applicable Securities Legislation, the Global Note will be issued as an Uncertificated Note, unless otherwise requested in writing by the Depository or the Corporation.

2.3 Interest on the Notes

(a) The Notes shall bear interest from July 31, 2014 at the rate of 8.0% per annum (based on a year of 365 days and the actual number of days in the relevant interest period), payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of January, April, July and October in each fiscal year of the Corporation during the term of the Note (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), the first such payment to fall due on October 31, 2014 (which shall represent interest from July 31, 2014 to but excluding October 31, 2014) and the last such payment (representing interest payable from the last Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date of the Notes) to fall due on April 2, 2018, payable after as well as before maturity and after as well as before default, with interest on amounts in default at the same rate, compounded quarterly; provided, however, that if the

Corporation fails to make an interest payment as set forth in this paragraph (a) on or before the Cure Deadline applicable to such Interest Payment Date, the Corporation shall pay to the Noteholder an additional interest payment in respect of that Interest Payment Date in an amount equal to 10.0% of the interest payment that was otherwise due on that Interest Payment Date. Any payment required to be made on any day that is not a Business Day will be made on the next succeeding Business Day. The record dates for the payment of interest on the Notes will be the eighth Business Day prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Any interest calculation shall be based on the number of days of the period being calculated such that it includes July 31, 2014 or the last Interest Payment Date, whichever shall be the later, to and excluding the next date interest is payable. Interest on all Notes issued hereunder shall cease to accrue on, but not including, the Maturity Date, Redemption Date, Date of Conversion, Change of Control Payment Date or Sale Payment Date, as applicable, for such Notes, unless, upon due presentation, payment of principal or delivery of amounts, securities or other property payable or deliverable hereunder and payment of any accrued and unpaid interest or other amounts payable hereunder is improperly withheld or refused.

(b) With respect to the payment of interest in cash on the Notes, except as otherwise specified in a resolution of the Board of Directors, an Officers’ Certificate or a supplemental indenture, as interest becomes due on each Note (except at maturity, on conversion or on redemption, when interest may at the option of the Corporation be paid upon surrender of such Note), the Corporation, either directly or through the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, shall send or forward by prepaid ordinary mail, electronic transfer of funds or such other means as may be agreed to by the Trustee, payment of such interest (less any tax required to be withheld therefrom) to the order of the registered holder of such Note appearing on the registers maintained by the Trustee at the close of business on the Business Day before the eighth Business Day prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date and addressed to the holder at the holder’s last address appearing on the register. If payment is made by cheque, such cheque shall be forwarded at least three Business Days prior to each date on which interest becomes due and if payment is made by other means (such as electronic transfer of funds, provided the Trustee must receive confirmation of receipt of funds prior to being able to wire funds or mail cheques to holders), such payment shall be made in a manner whereby the holder receives credit for such payment on the date such interest on such Note becomes due. If payment is to be sent or forwarded by the Trustee on behalf of the Corporation, the Corporation shall deliver the necessary funds to the Trustee by 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) (i) on the fourth Business Day prior to an Interest Payment Date, in the case of payments made by cheque, or (ii) on the Business Day prior to an Interest Payment Date, in the case of payments made by electronic funds transfer. The mailing of such cheque or the making of such payment by other means shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby, plus the amount of any tax withheld as aforesaid, satisfy and discharge all liability for interest on such Note, unless in the case of payment by cheque, such cheque is not paid at par on presentation. In the event of non-receipt of any cheque for or other payment of interest by the person to whom it is so sent as aforesaid, the Corporation or the Trustee, as the case may be, will issue to such person a replacement cheque or other payment for a like amount upon being furnished with such evidence of non-receipt as it shall reasonably require and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation or Trustee is prevented by circumstances beyond its control (including, without limitation, any interruption in mail service) from making payment of any interest due on each Note in the manner provided above, the Corporation or Trustee may make payment of such interest or make such interest available for payment in any other manner acceptable to the Trustee, acting reasonably, with the same effect as though payment had been made in the manner provided above.

(c) All payments of interest on the Global Note shall be made by electronic funds transfer or certified cheque made payable to the Depository or its nominee on the day interest is payable by 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) for subsequent payment to Beneficial Holders of the applicable Global Note, unless the Corporation, the Trustee and the Depository otherwise agree. None of the Corporation, the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee for any Note issued as a Global Note will be liable or responsible to any person for any aspect of the records related to or payments made on account of beneficial interests in any Global Note or for maintaining, reviewing, or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests.

(d) If the Corporation pays the interest on the Notes directly, the Corporation will provide the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate confirming such payment with relevant details.

2.4 Issue of Global Notes

(a) In the event that the Notes are to be issued in whole or in part as one or more Global Notes, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall certify and deliver one or more Global Notes that shall:

(i) represent an aggregate amount equal to the principal amount of the outstanding Notes to be represented by one or more Global Notes;

(ii) be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such Depository’s instructions; and

(iii) in addition to any legend required by Applicable Securities Legislation, bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

THIS NOTE IS A GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREIN REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO OR EXCHANGED FOR NOTES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF AND NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE. EVERY NOTE AUTHENTICATED AND DELIVERED UPON REGISTRATION OF, TRANSFER OF, OR IN EXCHANGE FOR, OR IN LIEU OF, THIS NOTE SHALL BE A GLOBAL NOTE SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, EXCEPT IN SUCH LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.

UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS CLEARING AND DEPOSITORY SERVICES INC. (“CDS”) TO TERRACE ENERGY CORP. (THE “ISSUER”) OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IN RESPECT THEREOF IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CDS & CO., OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CDS & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF, CDS & CO., HAS A PROPERTY INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HEREIN AND IT IS A VIOLATION OF ITS RIGHTS FOR ANOTHER PERSON TO HOLD, TRANSFER OR DEAL WITH THIS CERTIFICATE.

(b) Each Depository designated for a Global Note must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as such Depository, be a clearing agency registered or designated under the securities legislation of the jurisdiction where the Depository has its principal offices.

(c) Global Notes issued to the Depository may be surrendered to the Trustee for an electronic position on the register of Noteholders to be maintained by the Trustee in accordance with Section 3.2(a). All Notes maintained in such electronic position will be valid and binding obligations of the Corporation, entitling the registered holders thereof to the same benefits as those registered holders who hold Notes in physical form. This Indenture and the provisions contained herein will apply, mutatis mutandis, to such Notes held in such electronic position.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Notes required to bear the U.S. Legend, and Common Shares issuable upon conversion or redemption thereof, may be issued as a Global Note or, in the case of

such Common Shares, as a global certificate, only if such Notes are initially issued pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act provided by Rule 144A thereunder. Other Notes, including the Common Shares issuable upon conversion or redemption thereof, that are required to bear the U.S. Legend shall be issued as Restricted Physical Notes.

2.5 Registrar and Paying Agent

The Corporation shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange or conversion (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment of (and premium, if any) or to pay interest on any Note on behalf of the Corporation (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Corporation may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents, with the consent of the Trustee.

The Corporation initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent.

2.6 Execution of Notes

All Notes issued in certificated form shall be signed (either manually or by facsimile signature) by any one authorized director or officer of the Corporation holding office at the time of signing. A facsimile signature upon a Note shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the signature of the person whose signature it purports to be. Notwithstanding that any person whose signature, either manual or in facsimile, appears on a Note as a director or officer may no longer hold such office at the date of the Note or at the date of the certification and delivery thereof, such Note shall be valid and binding upon the Corporation and entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

2.7 Certification

The Corporation shall request the Trustee to issue, certify and deliver the Notes in accordance with a Written Direction of the Corporation. No Note shall be issued or, if issued, shall be obligatory or shall entitle the holder to the benefits of this Indenture, until it has been manually certified by or on behalf of the Trustee substantially in the form set out in this Indenture, in the relevant supplemental indenture, or in some other form approved by the Trustee. Such certification on any Note shall be conclusive evidence that such Note is duly issued, is a valid obligation of the Corporation and the holder is entitled to the benefits hereof.

The Trustee, as applicable, shall Authenticate Uncertificated Notes (whether upon original issuance, exchange, registration of transfer, partial payment, or otherwise) by completing its Internal Procedures and the Corporation shall, and hereby acknowledges that it shall, thereupon be deemed to have duly and validly issued such Uncertificated Notes under this Indenture. Such Authentication shall be conclusive evidence that such Uncertificated Notes have been duly issued hereunder and that the Noteholder or Noteholders are entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. The register described in Section 3.1 shall be final and conclusive evidence as to all matters relating to Uncertificated Notes with respect to which this Indenture requires the Trustee to maintain records or accounts. In case of differences between the register at any time and any other time, the register at the later time shall be controlling, absent manifest error and such Uncertificated Notes are binding on the Corporation. Authenticating by way of entry on the applicable register shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Trustee as to the validity of this Indenture or of such Notes (except the due Authentication thereof) or as to the performance by the Corporation of its obligations under this Indenture and the Trustee shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of the Uncertificated Notes or any of them or the proceeds thereof.

The certificate of the Trustee signed on the Notes, or interim Notes hereinafter mentioned, shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Trustee as to the validity of this Indenture or of the Notes or interim Notes or as to the issuance of the Notes or interim Notes and the Trustee shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of the Notes or interim Notes or any of them or the proceeds thereof. The certificate of the Trustee on the Notes or interim Notes shall, however, be a representation and warranty by the Trustee that the Notes or interim Notes have been duly certified by or on behalf of the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture.

2.8 Mutilation, Loss, Theft or Destruction

In case any of the Notes issued hereunder shall become mutilated or be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Corporation, in its discretion, may issue, and thereupon the Trustee shall certify and deliver, a new Note upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Note, or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, in lieu of and in substitution for the same, and the substituted Note shall be in a form approved by the Trustee and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and rank equally in accordance with its terms with all other Notes issued or to be issued hereunder. In case of loss, theft or destruction the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Corporation and to the Trustee such evidence of the loss, theft or destruction of the Note as shall be satisfactory to them in their discretion and shall also furnish an indemnity and surety bond satisfactory to them in their discretion. The applicant shall pay all reasonable expenses incidental to the issuance of any substituted Note.

2.9 Notes to Rank Pari Passu

The Notes will be direct unsecured obligations of the Corporation. Each Note will rank pari passu with each other Note (regardless of their actual date or terms of issue) and, subject to statutory preferred exceptions, with all other present and future unsecured indebtedness of the Corporation.

2.10 Payments of Amounts Due on Maturity

Except as may otherwise be provided herein or in any supplemental indenture in respect of the Notes, payments of amounts due upon maturity of the Notes will be made in the following manner. The Corporation will establish and maintain with the Trustee a Maturity Account for the Notes. The Maturity Account shall be maintained by and be subject to the control of the Trustee for the purposes of this Indenture. On or before 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee a certified cheque or wire transfer for deposit in the Maturity Account in an amount sufficient to pay the cash amount payable in respect of the Notes (including the principal amount together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon which shall include any tax required by law to be deducted or withheld). From the sums so deposited, the Trustee, on behalf of the Corporation, will pay to each holder entitled to receive payment the principal amount of and premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on the Note (less applicable withholding tax), upon surrender of the Note at any branch of the Trustee designated for such purpose from time to time by the Corporation and the Trustee. The delivery of such funds to the Trustee for deposit to the Maturity Account will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Corporation for the Notes to which the delivery of funds relates to the extent of the amount delivered (plus the amount of any tax deducted as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter to that extent not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture and such holder will have no other right in regard thereto other than to receive out of the money so delivered or made available the amount to which it is entitled. The Corporation shall also deposit with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay any fees, charges and expenses which may be due to the Trustee and the U.S. Trustee and incurred by the Trustee in connection with the payment to holders entitled to receive payment as set forth in this Section 2.10.

2.11 Withholding Tax

Notwithstanding anything else in this Indenture, the Corporation will be entitled or cause the Trustee to deduct and withhold any applicable taxes or similar charges (including interest, penalties or similar amounts in respect thereof) imposed or levied by or on behalf of any government including the Canadian government or of any Province or territory thereof or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax, from any payment to be made on or in connection with the Notes, including any payment on redemption or maturity that is satisfied by the Corporation issuing freely tradeable Common Shares and, provided that the Corporation forthwith remits or causes the Trustee to remit such withheld amount to such government, authority or agency and files all required forms in respect thereof and, at the same time, provides copies of such remittance and filing to the Trustee and the relevant Noteholder, the amount of any such deduction or withholding will be considered an amount paid in satisfaction of the Corporation’s obligations under the Notes and there is no obligation on the Corporation to gross-up amounts paid to a holder in respect of such deductions or withholdings. The Trustee when acting as paying agent shall itself make such remittances, deductions and filings directly to the governmental authorities and shall act as the agent of the Corporation. The Corporation shall provide directions to the Trustee concerning its obligations to make

such deductions, remittances and filings and the Trustee may rely on such directions to be indemnified for such reliance.

The Trustee shall have no obligation to verify any payments under the Tax Act or any provision of provincial, state, local or foreign tax law. The Trustee shall at all times be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation from and against any liabilities of the Trustee incurred in connection with the failure of the Corporation or its agents, to report, remit or withhold taxes as required by the Tax Act or any provision of provincial, state, local or foreign tax law, or otherwise failing to comply with the Tax Act or any provision of provincial, state, local or foreign tax law. This indemnification shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture solely to the extent that such liabilities have been incurred in connection with taxation years occurring during the term of this Indenture.

2.12 U.S. Legend on the Notes and Common Shares

(a) The Notes and the Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof (collectively, the “Securities”) have not been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act or any securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction within the U.S. Certificates representing Notes originally issued and sold in the United States in reliance on an exemption from registration under Rule 144A under the 1933 Act or under Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and Rule 506 thereunder, and certificates representing Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof, shall, for so long as required by applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws, bear the following legend (the “U.S. Legend”):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO TERRACE ENERGY CORP. (“THE COMPANY”), (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR (C) WITHIN THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH (1) RULE 144A UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR (2) ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED THAT AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, OF RECOGNIZED STANDING REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE, IS PROVIDED. DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE GOOD DELIVERY IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN CANADA AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. A NEW CERTIFICATE BEARING NO LEGEND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA, AS REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT, UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND A DULY EXECUTED DECLARATION, IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA AND THE COMPANY, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH SALE IS BEING MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.

provided, that if Securities are being sold in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S, and provided further that the Corporation is a “foreign issuer” within the meaning of Regulation S at the time of sale, the U.S. Legend may be removed by providing a duly completed and signed declaration to the Trustee or the transfer agent for the Common Shares, as applicable, substantially as set forth in Schedule “E” hereto (or as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time), together with any additional documentation as may be required by the Corporation or the Trustee or transfer agent, which evidence may include an opinion of

counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and the Trustee, to the effect that such U.S. Legend is no longer required pursuant to the requirements of the 1933 Act; and provided further that, if any Securities are being sold in accordance with Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, the U.S. Legend may be removed by delivery to the Trustee or transfer agent, for the Common Shares, as applicable, of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and the Trustee, to the effect that the U.S. Legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws. Provided that the Trustee obtains confirmation from the Corporation that such counsel is satisfactory to it, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such opinion of counsel without further inquiry. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may impose additional requirements for the removal of legends from the Notes.

(b) Prior to the issuance of the Notes, the Corporation shall notify the Trustee, in writing, concerning which Notes are represented by certificates that bear the U.S. Legend. The Trustee will thereafter maintain a list of all registered holders from time to time of such legended Notes.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, in processing and registering transfers of Notes, no duty or responsibility whatsoever shall rest upon the Trustee to determine the compliance by any transferor or transferee with the terms of the legend contained in Sections 2.12 or 2.4, or with the relevant securities laws or regulations, including, without limitation, Regulation S, and the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that all transfers are legal and proper.

(iii) Global Notes may be transferred at any time after the Corporation has determined, in its sole discretion, to terminate the book-entry only registration system in respect of such Global Notes and has communicated such determination to the Trustee in writing;

(iv) Global Notes may be transferred at any time after the Trustee has determined that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes issued as a Global Note, provided that Beneficial Holders representing, in the aggregate, not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes advise the Depository in writing, through the Depository Participants, that the continuation of the book-entry only registration system for such Notes is no longer in their best interest and also provided that at the time of such transfer the Trustee has not waived the Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.3;

(vii) Global Notes may be transferred if the book-entry only registration system ceases to exist.

(c) With respect to the Global Notes, unless and until definitive certificates have been issued to Beneficial Holders pursuant to subsection 3.2(b):

(i) the Corporation and the Trustee may deal with the Depository for all purposes (including paying interest on the Notes) as the sole holder of the Notes and the authorized representative of the Beneficial Holders;

(ii) the rights of the Beneficial Holders shall be exercised only through the Depository and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Holders and the Depository or the Depository Participants;

(iii) the Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants; and

(iv) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instruction or directions of Noteholders evidencing a specified percentage of the outstanding Notes, the Depository shall be deemed to be counted in that percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from the Beneficial Holders or the Depository Participants, and has delivered such instructions to the Trustee.

(d) Whenever a notice or other communication is required to be provided to Noteholders, unless and until definitive certificate(s) have been issued to Beneficial Holders pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Trustee

shall provide all such notices and communications to the Depository and the Depository shall deliver such notices and communications to such Beneficial Holders in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation. Upon the termination of the book-entry only registration system on the occurrence of one of the conditions specified in Section 3.2(b) with respect to the Notes issued hereunder, the Depository shall notify all applicable Depository Participants, through the Depository, of the availability of definitive certificates. Upon surrender by the Depository of the certificate(s) representing the Global Notes and receipt of new registration instructions from the Depository, the Trustee shall deliver the definitive certificates for such Notes to the holders thereof in accordance with the new registration instructions and thereafter, the registration and transfer of such Notes will be governed by Section 3.1 and the remaining Sections of this Article 3, provided that any Definitive Notes that are issued in exchange for a Restricted Global Note shall bear the U.S. Legend.

3.4 No Notice of Trusts

Neither the Corporation nor the Trustee nor any registrar shall be bound to take notice of or see to the execution of any trust (other than that created by this Indenture) whether express, implied or constructive, in respect of any Note, and may transfer the same on the direction of the person registered as the holder thereof, whether named as trustee or otherwise, as though that person were the beneficial owner thereof.

3.5 Holder Lists; Registers Open for Inspection

The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Noteholders as maintained on the registers referred to in Sections 3.1 and 3.2. The Corporation shall, or shall cause the Trustee to, furnish to the U.S. Trustee on each April 30 and October 31 copies of the registers referred to in Sections 3.1 and 3.2, and the U.S. Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 312(a).

The registers referred to in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall at all reasonable times be open for inspection by the Corporation, the Trustee, the U.S. Trustee or any Noteholder. Every registrar, including the Trustee, shall from time to time when requested so to do by the Corporation, the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, in writing, furnish the Corporation, the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, as the case may be, with a list of names and addresses of holders of registered Notes entered on the register kept by them and showing the principal amount and serial numbers of the Notes held by each such holder, provided the registrar shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee to provide such a list.

3.6 Exchanges of Notes

(a) Subject to Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.7, Notes in any authorized form or denomination, other than Global Notes, may be exchanged for Notes in any other authorized form or denomination, of the same date of maturity, bearing the same interest rate and of the same aggregate principal amount as the Notes so exchanged.

(b) In respect of exchanges of Notes permitted by Section 3.6(a), Notes may be exchanged only at the principal offices of the Trustee in the cities of Vancouver, British Columbia and Toronto, Ontario or at such other place or places, if any, as may be specified in the Notes and at such other place or places as may from time to time be designated by the Corporation with the approval of the Trustee.

All Notes surrendered for exchange shall be cancelled.

(b) Subject to any restriction herein provided, the Corporation with the approval of the Trustee may at any time close any register for any Notes, other than those kept at the principal offices of the Trustee in Vancouver, British Columbia and Toronto, Ontario, and transfer the registration of any Notes registered thereon to another register (which may be an existing register) and thereafter such Notes shall be deemed to be registered on such other register. Notice of such transfer shall be given to the holders of such Notes.

3.8 Charges for Registration, Transfer and Exchange

For each Note exchanged, registered, transferred or discharged from registration, the Trustee or other registrar, except as otherwise herein provided, may make a reasonable charge for its services and in addition may charge a reasonable sum for each new Note issued (such amounts to be agreed upon from time to time by the Trustee and the Corporation), and payment of such charges and reimbursement of the Trustee or other registrar for any stamp taxes or governmental or other charges required to be paid shall be made by the party requesting such exchange, registration, transfer or discharge from registration as a condition precedent thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, no charge shall be made to a Noteholder hereunder:

(a) for any exchange of a Global Note as contemplated in Section 3.2; or

(b) for any exchange of any Note resulting from a partial redemption under Section 4.2.

3.9 Ownership of Notes

(a) Unless otherwise required by law, the person in whose name any registered Note is registered shall for all purposes of this Indenture be and be deemed to be the owner thereof and payment of or on account of the principal of and premium, if any, on such Note and interest thereon shall be made to such registered holder.

(b) Neither of the Corporation nor the Trustee nor the Co-Trustee shall have any liability for:

(i) any aspect of the records relating to the beneficial ownership of the Notes held by a Depository or of the payments relating thereto; or

(ii) maintaining, supervising or reviewing any such records relating to the Notes.

The rules governing Depositories provide that they act as the agent and depository for Depository Participants. As a result, such Depository Participants must look solely to the Depository and Beneficial Holders of Notes must look solely to the Depository Participants for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes paid by or on behalf of the Corporation to the Depository.

(i) may not have Note certificates registered in their name; and

(ii) may not have physical certificates representing their interest in the Notes.

(d) The registered holder for the time being of any registered Note shall be entitled to the principal, premium, if any, and interest evidenced by such instruments, respectively, free from all equities or rights of set-off, compensation or counterclaim between the Corporation and the original or any intermediate holder thereof and all persons may act accordingly and the receipt of any such registered holder for any such principal, premium or interest shall be a good discharge to the Trustee, any registrar and to the Corporation for the same and none shall be bound to inquire into the title of any such registered holder.

(e) Where Notes are registered in more than one name, the principal, premium, if any, and interest from time to time payable in respect thereof may be paid to the order of all such holders, failing written instructions from them to the contrary, and the receipt of any one of such holders therefor shall be a valid discharge, to the Trustee, any registrar and to the Corporation.

(f) In the case of the death of one or more joint holders of any Note the principal, premium, if any, and interest from time to time payable thereon may be paid to the order of the survivor or survivors of such registered holders and the receipt of any such survivor or survivors therefor shall be a valid discharge to the Trustee and any registrar and to the Corporation.

ARTICLE 4
REDEMPTION AND PURCHASE OF NOTES

4.1 Redemption

The Notes will be redeemable by the Corporation in accordance with the terms of Article 4, except in the event of the satisfaction of certain conditions after a Change of Control has occurred as outlined in Section 6.10 hereof or after a Sale Transaction has occurred as outlined in Section 6.11 hereof, as follows:

(a) At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Notes may be redeemed for cash at the option of the Corporation in whole or in part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, on a Redemption Notice as provided for in Section 4.3 at the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date. The Redemption Notice for such Notes shall be substantially in the form of Schedule “B-1” to this Indenture.

(b) In the event that at any time prior to the Maturity Date the closing price of the Common Shares on the Exchange is equal to or greater than 140% of the Conversion Price of the Notes for 30 consecutive trading days (the last such trading day being referred to as a “Trigger Date”), the Corporation shall have the right at its option to redeem any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the principal amount of a Note in exchange for the issuance of Common Shares at the Conversion Price on the Redemption Date (the “Common Share Redemption Right”) on giving the holder of the Note not less than 30 days’ notice thereof on a Redemption Notice as per the provisions in Section 4.3 hereof. The Redemption Notice for such Notes shall be substantially in the form of Schedule “B-2” to this Indenture. The date of such Redemption Notice shall be no later than five trading days following the respective Trigger Date.

(c) Except as provided below, no adjustment in the number of Common Shares to be issued upon redemption pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 4.1 will be made for dividends or distributions on Common Shares issuable upon redemption or for interest accrued on the Notes surrendered. No fractional Common Shares will be issued, and no cash payment in lieu thereof, and any fractions resulting from a conversion will be rounded down to the next whole number. The Conversion Price applicable to, and the Common Shares receivable on the redemption of, such Notes is subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.4.

(d) Holders of Notes redeemed in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 4.1 will receive, in addition to the applicable number of Common Shares, accrued and unpaid interest by way of cash payment (less any taxes required to be deducted) in respect of the Notes surrendered for redemption from the last Interest Payment Date up to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

4.2 Partial Redemption

If less than all the Notes for the time being outstanding are at any time to be redeemed, the Notes to be so redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis to the nearest multiple of $1,000 in accordance with the principal amount of the Notes registered in the name of each holder or in such other manner as the Trustee deems equitable, subject to the approval of the Exchange, as may be required from time to time. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the terms of the Notes, no Note shall be redeemed in part unless the principal amount redeemed is $1,000 or a multiple thereof. For this purpose, the Trustee may make, and from time to time vary, regulations with respect to the manner in which such Notes may be drawn for redemption and regulations so made shall be valid and binding upon all holders of such Notes notwithstanding that as a result thereof one or more of such Notes may become subject to redemption in part only or for cash only. In the event that one or more of such Notes becomes subject to redemption in part only, upon surrender of any such Notes for payment of the Redemption Price or Common Shares at the Conversion Price, together with interest accrued to but excluding the Redemption Date, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall certify and deliver without charge to the holder thereof or upon the holder’s order one or more new Notes for the unredeemed part of the principal amount of the Note or Notes so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Note, the Trustee shall make notations on the Global Note of the principal amount thereof so redeemed. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Note” or “Notes” as used in this Article 4 shall be deemed to mean or include any part of the principal amount of any Note which in accordance with the foregoing provisions has become subject to redemption.

4.3 Notice of Redemption

A Redemption Notice shall be given to the holders of the Notes so to be redeemed not more than 50 days nor less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the “Redemption Date”) in the manner provided in Section 11.2. Every such notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Notes called for redemption, the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price or the Conversion Price for Common Shares, as the case may be, and the places of payment, and shall state that interest upon the principal amount of Notes called for redemption shall cease to be payable from and after the Redemption Date. In addition, unless all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Redemption Notice shall specify:

(a) the distinguishing letters and numbers of the registered Notes which are to be redeemed (or of such thereof as are registered in the name of such Noteholder);

(b) in the case of a published notice, the distinguishing letters and numbers of the Notes which are to be redeemed or, if such Notes are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to identify the Notes so selected;

(c) in the case of a Global Note, that the redemption will take place in such manner as may be agreed upon by the Depository, the Trustee and the Corporation; and

(d) in all cases, the principal amounts of such Notes or, if any such Note is to be redeemed in part only, the principal amount of such part.

In the event that all Notes to be redeemed are registered Notes, publication shall not be required.

4.4 Notes Due on Redemption Dates

Notice having been given as aforesaid, all the Notes so called for redemption shall thereupon be and become due and payable, together with accrued interest to but excluding the Redemption Date, on the Redemption Date specified in such notice, in the same manner and with the same effect as if it were the date of maturity specified in such Notes, anything therein or herein to the contrary notwithstanding, and from and after such Redemption Date, if the monies necessary to redeem, or the Common Shares to be issued to redeem, such Notes shall have been deposited as provided in Section 4.5 and affidavits or other proof satisfactory to the Trustee as to the publication and/or mailing of such notices shall have been lodged with it, interest upon the Notes shall cease. If any question shall arise as to whether any notice has been given as above provided and such deposit made, such question shall be decided by the Trustee whose decision shall be final and binding upon all parties in interest.

4.5 Right to Exercise Common Share Redemption Right

The Corporation’s right to exercise the Common Share Redemption Right shall be conditional upon the following conditions being met on the Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date:

(a) the issuance of the Common Shares on the exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right shall be made in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation and such Common Shares shall be issued as Freely Tradeable Common Shares;

(b) such additional Freely Tradeable Common Shares shall be listed on each stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed;

(c) the Corporation shall be a reporting issuer, or the equivalent, in good standing under Applicable Securities Legislation where the distribution of such Common Shares occurs;

(d) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(e) the receipt by the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate stating that conditions (a), (b), (c) and (d) above have been satisfied and setting forth the number of Common Shares to be delivered for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Redemption Date; and

(f) the receipt by the Trustee of an opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Common Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered pursuant to the terms of this Indenture in payment for the Corporation’s exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right, will be validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable, that conditions (a) and (b) above have been satisfied and that, relying exclusively on a list of issuers in default maintained by the relevant securities authorities, condition (c) above is satisfied, except that the opinion in respect of condition (c) need not be expressed with respect to those provinces where such lists are not maintained.

If the foregoing conditions are not satisfied prior to the close of business on the Business Day preceding the Redemption Date, the Corporation shall pay the Redemption Price in cash in accordance with Section 4.6 unless the

Noteholders waive the conditions which are not satisfied by way of Extraordinary Resolution. The Corporation may not change the form of components or percentage of consideration to be paid for the Notes except as described in the preceding sentence. When the Corporation determines the actual number of the Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the Corporation’s exercise of its Common Share Redemption Right, it will issue a press release on a national newswire disclosing the Current Market Price and such actual number of Common Shares.

4.6 Deposit of Redemption Monies or Common Shares

(a) Redemption of Notes shall be provided for by the Corporation depositing with the Trustee or any paying agent to the order of the Trustee, on or before 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the Redemption Date specified in such notice, such sums of money or certificates representing Common Shares, as the case may be, as may be sufficient to pay the Redemption Price or Common Shares, as the case may be, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to but excluding the Redemption Date, of the Notes so called for redemption pursuant to Section 4.1(a) and Section 4.1(b) or certificates representing such Common Shares, plus sums of money for accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to but excluding the Redemption Date, as may be sufficient to pay the principal amount of the Notes so called for redemption pursuant to Section 4.1(b) hereof, as applicable. All Common Shares which shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable. The Corporation shall also deposit with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay any charges or expenses which may be incurred by the Trustee in connection with any such redemption. Every such deposit shall be irrevocable. From the sums so deposited, or certificates so deposited, or both, the Trustee shall pay or cause to be paid, or issue or cause to be issued, to the holders of such Notes so called for redemption, upon surrender of such Notes, the principal, premium (if any) and interest (if any) to which they are respectively entitled on redemption.

(b) The Corporation shall comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation regulating the issue and delivery of Common Shares upon exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right and shall cause to be listed and posted for trading such Common Shares on each stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed.

(c) If Common Shares issuable upon the Corporation’s exercise of its Common Share Redemption Right to which a holder is entitled is subject to withholding taxes, then the Corporation shall deliver to the Trustee sufficient funds to pay any withholding tax. Any fractional shares shall be rounded down with no cash payment in lieu thereof and the Trustee shall remit same on behalf of the Corporation to the proper tax authorities within the period of time prescribed for this purpose under applicable laws.

(d) Each certificate representing Common Shares issued in payment of the Corporation’s exercise of its Common Share Redemption Right with respect to Notes bearing the U.S. Legend, as well as all certificates issued in exchange for or in substitution of the foregoing securities, shall bear the U.S. Legend; provided that if the Common Shares are being sold in compliance with the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S, and provided further that the Corporation is a “foreign issuer” within the meaning of Regulation S at the time of sale, the U.S. Legend may be removed by providing a declaration to the transfer agent for the Common Shares, substantially as set forth in Schedule “E” hereto (or as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time), together with any additional documentation as may be required by the Corporation or the transfer agent, which evidence may include a written opinion of counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, to the effect that the U.S. Legend is no longer required pursuant to the requirements of the 1933 Act; and provided further that, if any such securities are being sold within the United States in accordance with Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, the U.S. Legend may be removed by delivery to the transfer agent for the Common Shares, of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance, reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, to the effect that the U.S. Legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws.

4.7 Failure to Surrender Notes Called for Redemption

In case the holder of any Note so called for redemption shall fail on or before the Redemption Date to so surrender such holder’s Note, or shall not within such time accept payment of the redemption monies payable, or

take delivery of certificates representing such Common Shares issuable in respect thereof, or give such receipt therefor, if any, as the Trustee may require, such redemption monies may be set aside in trust, or such certificates may be held in trust without interest, either in the deposit department of the Trustee or in a chartered bank, and such setting aside shall for all purposes be deemed a payment to the Noteholder of the sum or Common Shares so set aside and, to that extent, the Note shall thereafter not be considered as outstanding hereunder and the Noteholder shall have no other right except to receive payment out of the monies so paid and deposited, or take delivery of the certificates so deposited, or both, upon surrender and delivery of such holder’s Note. In the event that any money or certificates representing Common Shares required to be deposited hereunder with the Trustee or any depository or paying agent on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on Notes issued hereunder shall remain so deposited for a period of five years less one day from the Redemption Date, then such monies or certificates representing Common Shares, together with any distribution paid thereon, shall at the end of such period be paid over or delivered over by the Trustee or such depository or paying agent to the Corporation on its demand, and thereupon the Trustee shall not be responsible to Noteholders for any amounts owing to them and subject to applicable law, thereafter the holder of a Note in respect of which such money was so repaid to the Corporation shall have no rights in respect thereof except to obtain payment of the money or certificates due from the Corporation, subject to any prescription period provided by the laws of British Columbia.

4.8 Cancellation of Notes Redeemed

Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.2 and 4.9 as to Notes redeemed or purchased in part, all Notes redeemed and paid under this Article 4 shall forthwith be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution for those redeemed.

4.9 Purchase of Notes by the Corporation

The Corporation may, at any time and from time to time, purchase Notes in the market (which shall include purchases from or through an investment dealer or a firm holding membership on a recognized stock exchange) or by tender or by contract, at any price. All Notes so purchased will be delivered to the Trustee and shall be cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution therefor.

If, upon an invitation for tenders, more Notes are tendered at the same lowest price than the Corporation is prepared to accept, the Notes to be purchased by the Corporation shall be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis or in such other manner as consented to by the Exchange which the Trustee considers appropriate, from the Notes tendered by each tendering Noteholder who tendered at such lowest price. For this purpose the Trustee may make, and from time to time amend, regulations with respect to the manner in which Notes may be so selected, and regulations so made shall be valid and binding upon all Noteholders, notwithstanding the fact that as a result thereof one or more of such Notes become subject to purchase in part only. The holder of a Note of which a part only is purchased, upon surrender of such Note for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such holder, one or more new Notes for the unpurchased part so surrendered, and the Trustee shall certify and deliver such new Note or Notes upon receipt of the Note so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Note, the Trustee shall make notations on the Global Note of the principal amount thereof so purchased.

ARTICLE 5
CONVERSION OF NOTES

5.1 Conversion

(a) Upon and subject to the provisions and conditions of this Article 5 and Section 3.7, the holder of each Note shall have the right at such holder’s option, at any time and from time to time prior to the earlier of 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date that is the Business Day before eight Business Days immediately preceding the Maturity Date and 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date that is the Business Day before eight Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date specified by the Corporation for redemption of the Notes by notice to Holders in accordance with Article 4 (the earlier of which will be the “Time of Expiry”) for the purposes of this Article 5, to convert any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the principal amount of a Note into Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect on the Date of Conversion.

(b) The Conversion Price in effect on the date hereof for each Common Share to be issued upon the conversion of Notes shall be equal to $2.00 such that 500 Common Shares shall be issued for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes so converted. Except as provided below, no adjustment in the number of Common Shares to be issued upon conversion will be made for dividends or distributions on Common Shares issuable upon conversion, the record date for the payment of which precedes the date upon which the holder becomes a holder of Common Shares in accordance with Article 5, or for interest accrued on Notes surrendered. No fractional Common Shares will be issued, and no cash payment in lieu thereof, and any fractions resulting from a conversion will be rounded down to the next whole number. The Conversion Price, and the Common Shares, securities or other property receivable on the conversion of the Notes, is subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.4.

Holders converting their Notes will receive, in addition to the applicable number of Common Shares, accrued and unpaid interest by way of cash payment (less any taxes required to be deducted) in respect of the Notes surrendered for conversion from the last Interest Payment Date up to, but not including, the Date of Conversion in accordance with Section 5.3(d).

(c) Holders converting Notes shall receive accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the period of the last Interest Payment Date prior to the Date of Conversion up to but not including the Date of Conversion.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, if a Note is surrendered for conversion on an Interest Payment Date or during the eight preceding Business Days, the person or persons entitled to receive Common Shares in respect of the Note so surrendered for conversion shall not become the holder or holders of record of such Common Shares until the Business Day following such Interest Payment Date.

(e) A Note in respect of which a holder has accepted a notice in respect of a Change of Control Purchase Offer pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.10 or a notice in respect of an Offer on Sale of Assets pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.11 may be surrendered for conversion only if such notice is withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture.

5.2 Revival of Right to Convert

If the redemption of any Note called for redemption by the Corporation is not made or the payment of the purchase price of any Note which has been tendered in acceptance of an offer by the Corporation to purchase Notes for cancellation is not made, in the case of a redemption upon due surrender of such Note or in the case of a purchase on the date on which such purchase is required to be made, as the case may be, then, provided the Time of Expiry has not passed, the right to convert such Notes shall revive and continue as if such Note had not been called for redemption or tendered in acceptance of the Corporation’s offer, respectively.

5.3 Manner of Exercise of Right to Convert

(a) The holder of a Note desiring to convert such Note in whole or in part into Common Shares shall surrender such Note to the Trustee at either of its principal offices in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia or the City of Toronto, Ontario together with the conversion notice attached hereto as Schedule “C” or any other written notice in a form satisfactory to the Trustee, in either case duly executed by the holder or his executors or administrators or other legal representatives or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and executed in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee, exercising his right to convert such Note in accordance with the provisions of this Article; provided that with respect to a Global Note, the obligation to surrender a Note to the Trustee shall be satisfied if the Trustee makes notation on the Global Note of the principal amount thereof so converted and the Trustee is provided with all other documentation which it may request. Thereupon such Noteholder or, subject to payment of all applicable stamp or security transfer taxes or other governmental charges and compliance with all reasonable requirements of the Trustee, his nominee(s) or assignee(s) shall be entitled to be entered in the books of the Corporation as at the Date of Conversion (or such later date as is specified in Section 5.3(b)) as the holder of the number of Common Shares into which such Note is convertible in accordance with the provisions of this Article and, as soon as practicable thereafter within three Business Days, the Corporation shall deliver

to such Noteholder or, subject as aforesaid, his nominee(s) or assignee(s), a certificate or certificates for such Common Shares.

(b) For the purposes of this Article, a Note shall be deemed to be surrendered for conversion on the date (herein called the “Date of Conversion”) on which it is so surrendered, together with the conversion notice required under Section 5.3(a), when the register of the Trustee is open and in accordance with the provisions of this Article or, in the case of a Global Note which the Trustee received notice of and all necessary documentation in respect of the exercise of the conversion rights and, in the case of a Note so surrendered by post or other means of transmission, on the date on which it is received by the Trustee at one of its offices specified in Section 5.3(a); provided that if a Note is surrendered for conversion on a day on which the register of Common Shares or Notes is closed, the person or persons entitled to receive Common Shares shall become the holder or holders of record of such Common Shares as at the date on which such registers are next reopened.

(c) The holder of any Note of which only a part is converted shall, upon the exercise of his right of conversion surrender such Note to the Trustee in accordance with Section 5.3(a), and the Trustee shall cancel the same and shall without charge forthwith certify and deliver to the holder a new Note or Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted part of the principal amount of the Note so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Note, the Trustee shall make notations on the Global Notes of the principal amount thereof so converted. It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that, unless the Trustee is otherwise in a position to perform electronic conversions, in every instance where Notes held in an electronic position through the Depository are to be converted in whole or in part, such Notes being converted shall not be certificated, and it shall be sufficient for the Trustee to convert such Notes upon receiving either the attached conversion notice executed by the Depository or an NCI Letter of Instruction in a form agreed upon by the Trustee and the Depository, or such other form that they may require from time to time.

(d) Holders converting Notes shall receive accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the period of the last Interest Payment Date prior to the Date of Conversion but not including the Date of Conversion in cash. The Common Shares issued upon such conversion shall rank only in respect of distributions or dividends declared in favour of shareholders of record on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such holder shall become the holder of record of such Common Shares pursuant to Section 5.3(b), from which applicable date they will for all purposes be and be deemed to be issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares; provided that Common Shares issued upon a conversion shall not rank in respect of distributions or dividends declared for any period of time for which the holder thereof received interest hereunder as the holder of Notes for that part of the Notes which were converted into Common Shares.

5.4 Adjustment of Conversion Price

Subject to the requirements of the Exchange, the Conversion Price in effect at any date shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth below.

(a) Subject to the approval of the Exchange, any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation may decrease the Conversion Price by any amount as determined by the Board of Directors as would be in the best interests of the Corporation, which determination shall be conclusive, in which case a notice of the decrease in the Conversion Price must be mailed to the Noteholders at least two Business Days prior to the date the decreased Conversion Price takes effect, which notice shall state the decreased Conversion Price and the period during which such decreased Conversion Price will be in effect.

(b) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall (i) subdivide or redivide the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) issue Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution (other than the issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares who have elected to receive dividends or distributions in the form of Common Shares in lieu of cash dividends or cash distributions paid in the ordinary course on the Common Shares) (any such event, a

“Capital Reorganization”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on the effective date of such event referred to in (i) or (ii) or on the record date of such dividend or distribution referred to (iii), as the case may be, by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding before giving effect to such Capital Reorganization and the denominator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to such Capital Reorganization. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any Capital Reorganization shall occur.

(c) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 5.4(b) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, binding share exchange, merger of the Corporation with or into any other Person or other entity or acquisition of the Corporation or other combination pursuant to which the Common Shares are converted into or acquired for cash, securities or other property; or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other Person (other than a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Corporation) or other entity or a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, any holder of a Note who has not exercised its right of conversion prior to the effective date of such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, such amount of cash or the number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the Person or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement, acquisition, combination or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made or which holders of Common Shares receive pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, as the case may be, that such holder of a Note would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the conversion right. If determined appropriate by the Board of Directors, to give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this Section 5.4(c), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing Person or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, enter into an indenture which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Indenture with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holder of Notes to the end that the provisions set forth in this Indenture shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any cash, shares or other securities or property to which a holder of Notes is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation and the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.4(c) shall be a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 13. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing Person or other entity and the Trustee shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section 5.4(c) and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, amalgamations, consolidations, mergers, share exchanges, acquisitions, combinations, sales or conveyances. For greater certainty, nothing in this Section 5.4(c) shall affect or reduce the requirement for any Person to make a Change of Control Purchase Offer in accordance with Section 6.10 or an Officer on Sale of Assets in accordance with Section 6.11, and notice of any transaction to which this Section 5.4(c) applies shall be given in accordance with Section 5.9.

(d) In any case in which this Section 5.4 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the holder of any Note converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions

made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such holder would, but for the provisions of this Section 5.4(d), have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares pursuant to Section 5.3(b).

(e) The adjustments provided for in this Section 5.4 are cumulative and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price then in effect; provided however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 5.4(e) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

(f) For the purpose of calculating the number of Common Shares outstanding, Common Shares owned by or for the benefit of the Corporation shall not be counted.

(g) In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided in this Section 5.4, such question shall be conclusively determined by the then current Auditors of the Corporation; such accountants shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation and such determination shall be binding upon the Corporation, the Trustee, and the Noteholders.

(h) In case the Corporation shall take any action affecting the Common Shares other than action described in this Section 5.4, which in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would materially affect the rights of Noteholders, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in such manner and at such time, by action of the Board of Directors, subject to the prior written consent of the Exchange, as the Board of Directors, in their sole discretion acting reasonably may determine to be equitable in the circumstances. Failure of the directors to make such an adjustment shall be conclusive evidence that they have determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.

(i) Subject to the prior written consent of the Exchange, no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made in respect of any event described in Sections 5.4(b) other than the events described in Sections 5.4(b)(i) or 5.4(b)(ii) if the holders of the Notes are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms mutatis mutandis as if they had converted their Notes prior to the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of such event.

5.5 No Requirement to Issue Fractional Common Shares

The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractional Common Shares, or pay cash in lieu thereof, upon the conversion of Notes pursuant to this Article. If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of whole Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes to be converted. Any fractions resulting from a conversion will be rounded down to the next whole number.

5.6 Corporation to Reserve Common Shares

The Corporation covenants with the Trustee that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares (if the number thereof is or becomes limited), solely for the purpose of issue upon conversion of Notes as in this Article provided, and conditionally allot to Noteholders who may exercise their conversion rights hereunder, such number of Common Shares as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Notes. The Corporation covenants with the Trustee that all Common Shares which shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued as fully-paid and non-assessable.

5.7 Cancellation of Converted Notes

Subject to the provisions of Section 5.3 as to Notes converted in part, all Notes converted in whole or in part under the provisions of this Article shall be forthwith delivered to and cancelled by the Trustee and no Note shall be issued in substitution for those converted.

5.8 Certificate as to Adjustment

The Corporation shall from time to time immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 5.4, deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based, which certificate and the amount of the adjustment specified therein shall be verified by an opinion of a firm of nationally recognized chartered accountants appointed by the Corporation and acceptable to the Trustee (who may be the Auditors of the Corporation) and shall be conclusive and binding on all parties in interest. When so approved, the Corporation shall, except in respect of any subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares, forthwith give notice to the Noteholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2 specifying the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the results thereof, including the resulting Conversion Price.

5.9 Notice of Special Matters

The Corporation covenants with the Trustee that so long as any Note remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Trustee, and to the Noteholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2, of its intention to fix a record date for any event referred to in Sections 5.4(a), 5.4(b) or 5.4(c) (other than the subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of its Common Shares) which may give rise to an adjustment in the Conversion Price, and, in each case, such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date, the agreement date and the effective date for such event; provided that the Corporation shall only be required to specify in such notice such particulars of such event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given. Such notice shall be given not less than seven days in each case prior to such applicable record date. The Corporation shall not during the period of such notice close the transfer books for Common Shares so as to prevent the conversion of the Notes. Nothing in this Section 5.9 shall in any manner derogate from or compromise the holder’s rights to receive notice pursuant to any applicable laws.

In addition, the Corporation covenants with the Trustee that so long as any Note remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Trustee, and to the Noteholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2, at least 30 days prior to the effective date of any transaction referred to in Section 5.4(c) stating the consideration into which the Notes will be convertible after the effective date of such transaction.

5.10 Protection of Trustee

The Trustee:

(a) shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Noteholder to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment in the Conversion Price, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same;

(b) shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Common Shares or of any shares or other securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note;

(c) shall not be responsible for any failure of the Corporation to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver Common Shares or share certificates upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion, or to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Article; and

(d) shall be entitled to act and rely on any adjustment calculation of the Corporation.

5.11 U.S. Legend on Common Shares

Each certificate representing Common Shares issued upon conversion of Notes bearing the U.S. Legend shall have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such legend or legends in substantially the form of Schedule “D” attached hereto; provided, that if the Common Shares are being sold in compliance with the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S, and provided further that the Corporation is a “foreign issuer” within the meaning of Regulation S at the time of sale, the U.S. Legend may be removed by providing a duly completed and signed declaration to the transfer agent for the Common Shares, substantially as set forth in Schedule “E” hereto (or as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time), together with any additional documentation as may be required by the Corporation or the transfer agent, which evidence may include a written opinion of counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, to the effect that the U.S. Legend is no longer required pursuant to the requirements of the 1933 Act; and provided further that, if any such securities are being sold in accordance with Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, the U.S. Legend may be removed by delivery to the transfer agent for the Common Shares, of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, to the effect that the U.S. Legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws.

ARTICLE 6
COVENANTS OF THE CORPORATION

Such remuneration shall continue to be payable until this Indenture shall be discharged and whether or not this Indenture shall be in the course of administration by or under the direction of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any amount owing hereunder and remaining unpaid 30 days from the invoice date will bear interest at the then current rate charges by the Trustee or the U.S. Trustee, respectively, against unpaid invoices and shall be payable upon demand. This section shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the removal or resignation of the Trustee and the U.S. Trustee.

6.3 To Give Notice of Default

(b) The Officers’ Certificate delivered under Section 6.6(a) to the U.S. Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 314(a)(4).

(a) The Corporation will use reasonable commercial efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Shares and the Notes on the Exchange, and to maintain the Corporation’s status as a “reporting issuer” not in default of the requirements of the Applicable Securities Legislation; provided that the foregoing covenant shall not prevent or restrict the Corporation from carrying out a transaction to which Article 9 would apply if carried out in compliance with Article 9 even if as a result of such transaction the Corporation ceases to be a “reporting issuer” in all or any of the provinces or territories of Canada or the Common Shares or Notes cease to be listed on the Exchange.

(b) The Corporation confirms that as at the date of execution of this Indenture it does not have a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the 1934 Act or have a reporting obligation pursuant to Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act.

deliver to the Trustee and the U.S. Trustee an Officers’ Certificate (in a form provided by the Trustee) notifying the Trustee and the U.S. Trustee of such registration or termination and such other information as the Trustee may require at the time.

If the Corporation sells, transfers, leases, conveys or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its properties and assets on a consolidated basis to any Person (other than a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Corporation) (a “Sale Transaction”) and the Corporation does not reinvest all or substantially all of the Net Proceeds of such Sale Transaction in the Business within 180 days of the closing date of such Sale Transaction, then the Corporation shall offer (the “Offer on Sale of Assets”) to purchase all or any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the Notes then outstanding at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principle amount of the Notes repurchased plus all accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes to the date of purchase (the “Sale of Assets Payment”), on the terms and conditions set forth below:

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.11, the Corporation will not be required to make an Offer on Sale of Assets if notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price.

6.12 Reports to Noteholders

So long as any Notes are outstanding:

(a) if the Corporation is subject to the reporting requirements under the Applicable Securities Laws and is required to file information with one or more securities commissions in Canada (the “Canadian Commissions”), the Corporation will furnish to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee (and the Noteholders and, upon request, beneficial owners of the Notes, in each case to the extent not otherwise available on the Canadian System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval), as promptly as practicable after such information has been filed:

(i) all quarterly and annual financial information that the Corporation is required to file with the Canadian Commissions under Applicable Securities Laws; and

(ii) all material change reports (other than confidential material change reports) that the Corporation is required to file with the Canadian Commissions under Applicable Securities Laws.

(b) if the Corporation is not subject to the reporting requirements of Applicable Securities Laws or is otherwise not required to file information with the Canadian Commissions, the Corporation will furnish to the Trustee, the Co-Trustee and the Noteholders, and will post on a publicly available website maintained by the Corporation, a copy of all the financial information and reports required to be delivered in subclauses (i) and (ii) of Section 6.12(a), on or before the date such financial information and reports would have been required to be filed for the applicable period, quarter or year if it were so subject to such securities laws.

Notwithstanding Section 6.12(a) and Section 6.12(b), in the event that the Corporation is a “reporting issuer” (or its equivalent) in any province of Canada, (i) all reports required to be delivered in Section 6.12(a) will be deemed to have been provided to the Trustee, the Co-Trustee and the Noteholders once filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) or any successor system thereto, and (ii) the Corporation will not be required to maintain a website pursuant to Section 6.12(b) on which it makes reports available. The Corporation hereby confirms that (x) it is a reporting issuer under Applicable Securities Legislation as of the date hereof, (y) as of the date hereof, its quarterly financial information is due within 60 days of the end of its first, second and third financial quarters, and (z) as of the date hereof, its annual financial information is due within 120 days of the Corporation’s fiscal year end (which is January 31 as of the date hereof). Should the Corporation cease to become a reporting issuer under Applicable Securities Legislation or should the dates in the previous sentence change, the Corporation shall provide a written notice to that effect to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee. For the requirements of Sections 6.12(a) and 6.12(b), the Trustee and the Co-Trustee shall assume compliance by the Corporation until the Trustee and the Co-Trustee receive written notice that the Corporation is no longer a reporting issuer.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation will be deemed not to have failed to comply with any of its agreements hereunder for purposes of Section 7.1(c) herein until 45 days after the date any report hereunder is required to be furnished to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.12. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s and the Co-Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Corporation’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee and the Co-Trustee are entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

Upon receipt of any reports or financial information required to be delivered to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee shall, while such statements are current, maintain custody of same and make same available for inspection by holders on their reasonable request. No obligation shall rest with the Trustee or the Co-Trustee to analyze such statements, or evaluate the performance of the Corporation as indicated therein, in any manner whatsoever. Neither the Trustee nor the Co-Trustee shall under any circumstances be deemed to provide legal, investment, tax or trading advice or counseling.

ARTICLE 7
DEFAULT

7.1 Events of Default

Each of the following events constitutes, and is herein sometimes referred to as, an “Event of Default”:

(a) failure to make an interest payment on or before the Cure Deadline in respect of two consecutive Interest Payment Dates;

(b) failure to pay any principal on the Notes when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or any other date fixed for prepayment pursuant to the terms of the Notes and this Indenture;

(c) default in the performance of or compliance with any term, condition or covenant contained in the Notes or this Indenture and such default shall not have been remedied and the Corporation shall not have taken timely steps to diligently remedy such default within 30 days after such failure shall first have become known to any officer of the Corporation or written notice thereof shall have been received by the Corporation;

(d) if any representation or warranty of the Corporation made in writing by or on behalf of the Corporation in the Notes or this Indenture shall prove to have been false or incorrect in any material respect on the date as of which made;

(e) if the Corporation shall (i) file, or consent by answer or otherwise to the filing against it of, a petition for relief or reorganization or arrangement or any other petition in bankruptcy, for liquidation or otherwise take advantage of any bankruptcy or insolvency law of any jurisdiction, (ii) make an assignment, an arrangement or a compromise for the benefit of its creditors, (iii) consent to the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers of itself or of any substantial part of its property, or (iv) take corporate action for the purpose of any of the foregoing; or

(f) if a court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction shall enter a final order appointing, without the consent of the Corporation, a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to it or with respect to any substantial part of its property, or if a final order for relief shall be entered in any case or proceeding for liquidation or reorganization or otherwise to take advantage of any bankruptcy or insolvency law of any jurisdiction, or ordering the dissolution, winding-up or liquidation of the Corporation, or if any petition for any such relief shall be filed against the Corporation and such petition shall not be dismissed within 90 days.

In each and every such event the Trustee may, in its discretion, but subject to the provisions of this Section, and shall, upon prior funding and indemnity and receipt of a request in writing signed by the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, subject to the provisions of Section 7.3, by notice in writing to the Corporation, declare the principal of, premium, if any, on and interest on all Notes then outstanding and all other monies outstanding hereunder to be due and payable and the same shall forthwith become immediately due and payable to the Trustee, and the Corporation shall forthwith pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders such principal (and premium, if any), accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on such Notes (and, where such a declaration is based upon a voluntary winding-up or liquidation of the Corporation, the premium, if any, on the Notes then outstanding which would have been payable upon the redemption thereof by the Corporation on the date of such declaration) and all other monies outstanding hereunder, together with subsequent interest at the rate borne by the Notes on such principal (and premium, if any), interest and such other monies from the date of such declaration until payment is received by the Trustee, such subsequent interest to be payable at the times and places and in the monies mentioned in and according to the tenor of the Notes. Such payment when made shall be deemed to have been made in discharge of the Corporation’s obligations hereunder and any monies so received by the Trustee shall be applied in the manner provided in Section 7.6.

7.2 Notice of Events of Default

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Noteholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2 and to the U.S. Trustee in the manner provided in Section 11.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the case of an Event of Default in the payment of the principal or interest on any Note or unless the Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Noteholders and shall have so advised the Corporation in writing.

When notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default has been given and the Event of Default is thereafter cured, notice that the Event of Default is no longer continuing shall be given by the Trustee to the Noteholders within 15 days after the Trustee becomes aware the Event of Default has been cured.

The Trustee and the Co-Trustee shall be entitled to assume no Event of Default has occurred until a responsible officer of the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, respectively, has been notified in writing, and such notice shall state that it is a “notice of Event of Default”.

7.3 Waiver of Default

Upon the happening of any Event of Default hereunder:

(a) the holders of the Notes shall have the power (in addition to the powers exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution as hereinafter provided) by requisition in writing by the holders of more than 50% of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding, to instruct the Trustee to waive any Event of Default and to cancel any declaration made by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1 and the Trustee shall thereupon waive the Event of Default and cancel such declaration, or either, upon such terms and conditions as shall be prescribed in such requisition; and

(b) the Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Notes then outstanding to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have power to waive any Event of Default if, in the Trustee’s opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor, and in such event to cancel any such declaration theretofore made by the Trustee in the exercise of its discretion, upon such terms and conditions as the Trustee may deem advisable.

No such act or omission of any of the Trustee or the Noteholders shall extend to or be taken in any manner whatsoever to affect any subsequent Event of Default or the rights resulting therefrom.

7.4 Enforcement by the Trustee

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 and to the provisions of any Extraordinary Resolution that may be passed by the Noteholders, if the Corporation shall fail to pay to the Trustee, forthwith after the same shall have been declared to be due and payable under Section 7.1, the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on all Notes then outstanding, together with any other amounts due hereunder, the Trustee may in its discretion and shall upon receipt of a request in writing signed by the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and upon being funded and indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction against all costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred, proceed in its own name on behalf of the holders of Notes and as the attorney-in-fact of the holders of Notes to obtain or enforce payment of such principal of and premium (if any) and interest on all the Notes then outstanding together with any other amounts due hereunder by such proceedings authorized by this Indenture or by law or equity as the Trustee in such request shall have been directed to take, or if such request contains no such direction, or if the Trustee shall act without such request, then by such proceedings authorized by this Indenture or by suit at law or in equity as the Trustee shall deem expedient.

The Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, either in each of its own name as trustee for and on behalf of the holders of Notes and as the attorney-in-fact of the holders of the Notes, or in any one or more of such capacities, to file such proof of debt, amendment of proof of debt, claim, petition or other document as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee, the Co-Trustee and of the holders of the Notes allowed in any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or other judicial proceedings relative to the Corporation or its creditors or relative to or affecting its property. The Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed (and the successive respective holders of the Notes by taking and holding the same shall be conclusively deemed to have so appointed the Trustee) the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the respective holders of the Notes with authority to make and file in the respective names of the holders of the Notes or on behalf of the holders of the Notes as a class, subject to deduction from any such claims of the amounts of any claims filed by any of the holders of the Notes themselves, any proof of debt, amendment of proof of debt, claim, petition or other document in any such proceedings and to receive payment of any sums becoming distributable on account thereof, and to execute any such other papers and documents and to

do and perform any and all such acts and things for and on behalf of such holders of the Notes, as may be necessary or advisable in the opinion of the Trustee, in order to have the respective claims of the Trustee, the Co-Trustee and of the holders of the Notes against the Corporation or its property allowed in any such proceeding, and to receive payment of or on account of such claims; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Indenture shall be deemed to give to the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, unless so authorized by Extraordinary Resolution or pursuant to Section 7.3 (in the case of the Trustee only), any right to accept or consent to any plan of reorganization or otherwise by action of any character in such proceeding to waive or change in any way any right of any Noteholder or to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder.

The Trustee shall also have the power at any time and from time to time to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may be advised shall be necessary or advisable to preserve and protect its interests and the interests of the Noteholders.

All rights of action hereunder may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof on the trial or other proceedings relating thereto. Any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the holders of Notes and as the attorney-in-fact of the holders of Notes, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the rateable benefit of the holders of the Notes subject to the provisions of this Indenture. In any proceeding brought by the Trustee (and also any proceeding in which a declaratory judgment of a court may be sought as to the interpretation or construction of any provision of this Indenture, to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any holders of the Notes parties to any such proceeding.

7.5 No Suits by Noteholders

Subject to Section 7.13 hereof, no holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity for the purpose of enforcing payment of the principal of or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes or for the execution of any trust or power hereunder or for the appointment of a liquidator or receiver or for a receiving order under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) or to have the Corporation wound up or to file or prove a claim in any liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: (a) such holder shall previously have given to the Trustee written notice of the happening of an Event of Default hereunder; and (b) the Noteholders by Extraordinary Resolution or by written instrument signed by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made a request to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall have been afforded reasonable opportunity either to proceed to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted to the Trustee or to institute an action, suit or proceeding in each of their names for such purpose; and (c) the Noteholders or any of them shall have furnished to the Trustee, when so requested by the Trustee, sufficient funds and security and indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby; and (d) the Trustee shall have failed to act within a reasonable time after such notification, request, receipt of sufficient funds, security and offer of indemnity and such notification, request, receipt of sufficient funds, security and offer of indemnity are hereby declared in every such case, at the option of the Trustee, to be conditions precedent to any such proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder by or on behalf of the holder of any Notes.

7.6 Application of Monies by Trustee

(a) Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, any monies received by the Trustee from the Corporation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Article 7, or as a result of legal or other proceedings or from any trustee in bankruptcy or liquidator of the Corporation, shall be applied, together with any other monies in the hands of the Trustee available for such purpose, as follows:

(i) first, in payment or in reimbursement to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee of their compensation, costs, charges, expenses, borrowings, advances or other monies furnished or provided by or at the instance of the Trustee and the Co-Trustee in or about the execution and administration of this Indenture, including, without limitation, all amounts due under Sections 6.2 and 12.16, with interest thereon as herein provided;

(ii) second, but subject as hereinafter in this Section 7.6 provided, in payment, rateably and proportionately to the holders of Notes, of the principal of and premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on the Notes which shall then be outstanding in the priority of principal first and then premium and then accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default unless otherwise directed by Extraordinary Resolution and in that case in such order or priority as between principal, premium (if any) and interest as may be directed by such resolution; and

(iii) third, in payment of the surplus, if any, of such monies to the Corporation or its assigns;

provided, however, that no payment shall be made pursuant to clause (ii) above in respect of the principal, premium or interest on any Note held, directly or indirectly, by or for the benefit of the Corporation or any Subsidiary (other than any Note pledged (or hypothecated with delivery) for value and in good faith to a person other than the Corporation or any Subsidiary but only to the extent of such person’s interest therein) except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on all Notes which are not so held.

(b) The Trustee shall not be bound to apply or make any partial or interim payment of any monies coming into its hands if the amount so received by it, after reserving thereon such amount as the Trustee may think necessary to provide for the payments mentioned in Section 7.6(a), is insufficient to make a distribution of at least 2% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, but it may retain the money so received by it and invest or deposit the same as provided in Section 12.9 until the money or the investments representing the same, with the income derived therefrom, together with any other monies for the time being under its control shall be sufficient for the said purpose or until it shall consider it advisable to apply the same in the manner hereinbefore set forth. The foregoing shall, however, not apply to a final payment in distribution hereunder.

7.7 Notice of Payment by Trustee

Not less than 15 days’ notice shall be given in the manner provided in Section 11.2 by the Trustee to the Noteholders of any payment to be made under this Article 7. Such notice shall state the time when and place where such payment is to be made and also the liability under this Indenture to which it is to be applied. After the day so fixed, unless payment shall have been duly demanded and have been refused, the Noteholders will be entitled to interest only on the balance (if any) of the principal monies, premium (if any) and interest due (if any) to them, respectively, on the Notes, after deduction of the respective amounts payable in respect thereof on the day so fixed.

7.8 Trustee May Demand Production of Notes

The Trustee shall have the right to demand production of the Notes in respect of which any payment of principal, interest or premium required by this Article 7 is made and may cause to be endorsed on the same a memorandum of the amount so paid and the date of payment, but the Trustee may, in its discretion, dispense with such production and endorsement, upon such indemnity being given to it and to the Corporation and such surety bond being posted, as the Trustee shall deem sufficient.

7.9 Remedies Cumulative

No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, or upon or to the holders of Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now existing or hereafter to exist by law or by statute.

7.10 Judgment Against the Corporation

The Corporation covenants and agrees with the Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Noteholders, judgment may be rendered against it in favour of the Noteholders or in favour of the Trustee on behalf of all the holders of Notes and as the attorney-in-fact of the Noteholders for any amount

which may remain due in respect of the Notes and premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

7.11 Immunity of Directors, Officers and Others

The Noteholders, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee hereby waive and release any right, cause of action or remedy now or hereafter existing in any jurisdiction against any past, present or future officer, director or employee of the Corporation or holder of Common Shares of the Corporation or of any successor for the payment of the principal of or premium or interest on any of the Notes or on any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty by the Corporation contained herein or in the Notes.

7.12 Undertaking for Costs

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee or the Co-Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee or as a Co-Trustee, as applicable, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 7.12 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, a suit by a Noteholder pursuant to Section 7.13 hereof, or a suit by Noteholders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

7.13 Rights of Noteholders to Receive Payment

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Noteholder to receive payment of principal and interest on the Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Noteholder.

ARTICLE 8

All Notes shall forthwith after payment thereof be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled by it. All Notes cancelled or required to be cancelled under this or any other provision of this Indenture shall be destroyed by the Trustee and, if required by the Corporation, the Trustee shall furnish to it a destruction certificate setting out the designating numbers of the Notes so destroyed.

8.2 Non-Presentation of Notes

have no right in respect thereof except that of receiving delivery and payment of the monies or Common Shares, if applicable, so set aside by the Trustee upon due presentation and surrender thereof, subject always to the provisions of Section 8.3.

10.1 Right to Convene Meeting

The Trustee or the Corporation may at any time and from time to time, and the Trustee shall, on receipt of a Written Direction of the Corporation or a written request signed by the holders of not less than 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and upon receiving funding and being indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Corporation or by the Noteholders signing such request against the costs which may be incurred in connection with the calling and holding of such meeting, convene a meeting of the Noteholders. In the event of the Trustee failing, within 30 days after receipt of any such request and such funding of indemnity, to give notice convening a meeting, the Corporation or such Noteholders, as the case may be, may convene such meeting. Every such meeting shall be held in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia or at such other place as may be approved or determined by the Corporation and the Trustee.

10.2 Notice of Meetings

At least 21 days’ notice of any meeting shall be given to the Noteholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2 and a copy of such notice shall be sent by post to the Trustee, unless the meeting has been called by it. Such notice shall state the time when and the place where the meeting is to be held and shall state briefly the general nature of the business to be transacted thereat and it shall not be necessary for any such notice to set out the terms of any resolution to be proposed or any of the provisions of this Article. The accidental omission to give notice of a meeting to any holder of Notes shall not invalidate any resolution passed at any such meeting. A holder may waive notice of a meeting either before or after the meeting.

10.3 Chairman

Some person, who need not be a Noteholder, nominated in writing by the Corporation (in case it convenes the meeting) or by the Trustee shall be chairman of the meeting and if no person is so nominated, or if the person so nominated is not present within 15 minutes from the time fixed for the holding of the meeting, a majority of the Noteholders present in person or by proxy shall choose some person present to be chairman.

10.4 Quorum

Subject to the provisions of Section 10.12, at any meeting of the Noteholders a quorum shall consist of Noteholders present in person or by proxy and representing at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. If a quorum of the Noteholders shall not be present within 30 minutes from the time fixed for holding any meeting, the meeting, if summoned by the Noteholders or pursuant to a request of the Noteholders, shall be dissolved, but in any other case the meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is

not a Business Day in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following Business Day thereafter) at the same time and place and no notice shall be required to be given in respect of such adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the Noteholders present in person or by proxy shall, subject to the provisions of Section 10.12, constitute a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened notwithstanding that they may not represent 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at an adjourned meeting which might have been brought before or dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same. No business shall be transacted at any meeting unless the required quorum be present at the commencement of business.

10.5 Power to Adjourn

The chairman of any meeting at which a quorum of the Noteholders is present may, with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes represented thereat, adjourn any such meeting and no notice of such adjournment need be given except such notice, if any, as the meeting may prescribe.

10.6 Show of Hands

Every question submitted to a meeting shall, subject to Section 10.7, be decided in the first place by a majority of the votes given on a show of hands except that votes on Extraordinary Resolutions shall be given in the manner hereinafter provided. At any such meeting, unless a poll is duly demanded as herein provided, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried unanimously or by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact. The chairman of any meeting shall be entitled, both on a show of hands and on a poll, to vote in respect of the Notes, if any, held by him.

10.7 Poll

On every Extraordinary Resolution, and on any other question submitted to a meeting when demanded by the chairman or by one or more Noteholders or proxies for Noteholders, a poll shall be taken in such manner and either at once or after an adjournment as the chairman shall direct. Questions other than Extraordinary Resolutions shall, if a poll be taken, be decided by the votes of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes represented at the meeting and voted on the poll.

10.8 Voting

On a show of hands every person who is present and entitled to vote, whether as a Noteholder or as proxy for one or more Noteholders or both, shall have one vote. On a poll each Noteholder present in person or represented by a proxy duly appointed by an instrument in writing shall be entitled to one vote in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes of which he shall then be the holder. A proxy need not be a Noteholder. In the case of joint holders of a Note, any one of them present in person or by proxy at the meeting may vote in the absence of the other or others but in case more than one of them be present in person or by proxy, they shall vote together in respect of the Notes of which they are joint holders.

In the case of a Global Note, the Depositary may appoint or cause to be appointed a Person or Persons as proxies and shall designate the number of votes entitled to each such Person, and each such Person shall be entitled to be present at any meeting of Noteholders and shall be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting in accordance with the number of votes set out in the Depositary’s designation.

10.9 Proxies

A Noteholder may be present and vote at any meeting of Noteholders by an authorized representative. The Corporation (in case it convenes the meeting) or the Trustee (in any other case) for the purpose of enabling the Noteholders to be present and vote at any meeting without producing their Notes, and of enabling them to be present and vote at any such meeting by proxy and of lodging instruments appointing such proxies at some place other than the place where the meeting is to be held, may from time to time make and vary such regulations as it shall think fit providing for and governing any or all of the following matters:

(a) the form of the instrument appointing a proxy, which shall be in writing, and the manner in which the same shall be executed and the production of the authority of any person signing on behalf of a Noteholder;

(b) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at such place as the Trustee, the Corporation or the Noteholder convening the meeting, as the case may be, may, in the notice convening the meeting, direct and the time, if any, before the holding of the meeting or any adjournment thereof by which the same must be deposited; and

(c) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at some approved place or places other than the place at which the meeting is to be held and enabling particulars of such instruments appointing proxies to be mailed, faxed, cabled, telegraphed or sent by other electronic means before the meeting to the Corporation or to the Trustee at the place where the same is to be held and for the voting of proxies so deposited as though the instruments themselves were produced at the meeting.

Any regulations so made shall be binding and effective and the votes given in accordance therewith shall be valid and shall be counted. Save as such regulations may provide, the only persons who shall be recognized at any meeting as the holders of any Notes, or as entitled to vote or be present at the meeting in respect thereof, shall be Noteholders and persons whom Noteholders have by instrument in writing duly appointed as their proxies.

10.10 Persons Entitled to Attend Meetings

The Corporation, the Trustee and Co-Trustee, by their respective officers and directors, the Auditors of the Corporation and the legal advisors of the Corporation, the Trustee, Co-Trustee or any Noteholder may attend any meeting of the Noteholders, but shall have no vote as such.

The resolution making such appointment may provide for payment of the expenses and disbursements of and compensation to such committee. Such committee shall consist of such number of persons as shall be prescribed in the resolution appointing it and the members need not be themselves Noteholders. Every such committee may elect its chairman and may make regulations respecting its quorum, the calling of its meetings, the filling of vacancies occurring in its number and its procedure generally. Such regulations may provide that the committee may act at a meeting at which a quorum is present or may act by minutes signed by the number of members thereof necessary to constitute a quorum.

ARTICLE 12
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE AND CO-TRUSTEE

12.1 No Conflict of Interest

The Trustee represents to the Corporation that at the date of execution and delivery by it of this Indenture there exists no material conflict of interest between the role of the Trustee as a trustee hereunder and its role in any other capacity but if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 12.1, such a material conflict of interest exists, or hereafter arises, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, and the Notes issued hereunder, shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such material conflict of interest exists or arises but the Trustee shall, within 30 days after ascertaining that it has a material conflict of interest, either eliminate such material conflict of interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 12.2.

12.2 Replacement of Trustee and U.S. Trustee

(a) The Trustee may resign its trust and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder by giving to the Corporation and the U.S. Trustee 60 days’ notice in writing or such shorter notice as the Corporation may accept as sufficient. If at any time a material conflict of interest exists in the Trustee’s role as a fiduciary hereunder the Trustee shall, within 30 days after ascertaining that such a material conflict of interest exists, either eliminate such material conflict of interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 12.2. The validity and enforceability of this Indenture and of the Notes issued hereunder shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such a material conflict of interest exists. In the event of the Trustee resigning or being removed or being dissolved, becoming bankrupt, going into liquidation or otherwise becoming incapable of acting hereunder, the Corporation shall forthwith appoint a new Trustee unless a new Trustee has already been appointed by the Noteholders. Failing such appointment by the Corporation, the retiring Trustee or any Noteholder may apply to a Judge of the British Columbia Supreme Court, on such notice as such Judge may direct at the Corporation’s expense, for the appointment of a new Trustee but any new Trustee so appointed by the Corporation or by the Court shall be subject to removal as aforesaid by the Noteholders and the appointment of such new Trustee shall be effective only upon such new Trustee becoming bound by this Indenture. Any new Trustee appointed under any provision of this Section 12.2 shall be a corporation authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in all of the Provinces of Canada. On any new appointment the new Trustee shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as Trustee.

Any company into which the Trustee may be merged or, with or to which it may be consolidated, amalgamated or sold, or any company resulting from any merger, consolidation, sale or amalgamation to which the Trustee shall be a party, shall be the successor trustee under this Indenture without the execution

of any instrument or any further act. Nevertheless, upon the written request of the successor Trustee or of the Corporation, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver an instrument assigning and transferring to such successor Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the rights, powers and trusts of the Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all property and money held by such Trustee to the successor Trustee so appointed in its place. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from the Corporation be required by any new Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts, then any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall on request of said new Trustee, be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Corporation.

(b) The U.S. Trustee may resign at any time by providing notice to the Corporation and the Trustee. The Corporation may remove the U.S. Trustee if:

(i) the U.S. Trustee fails to comply with Section 12.23;

(ii) the U.S. Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent;

(iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the U.S. Trustee or its property; or

(iv) the U.S. Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

If the U.S. Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of U.S. Trustee for any reason, the Corporation shall notify each holder of such event and shall promptly appoint a successor U.S. Trustee. Within one year after the successor U.S. Trustee takes office, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes may appoint a successor U.S. Trustee to replace the successor U.S. Trustee appointed by the Corporation.

A successor U.S. Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring U.S. Trustee and to the Corporation. Immediately after that, the retiring U.S. Trustee shall transfer, after payment of all sums then owing to the U.S. Trustee pursuant to Sections 6.2 and 12.16, all property held by it as U.S. Trustee to the successor U.S. Trustee, subject to the lien provided in Sections 6.2 and 12.16, the resignation or removal of the retiring U.S. Trustee shall become effective, and the successor U.S. Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall have all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the U.S. Trustee under this Indenture. A successor U.S. Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each holder. A resignation of the U.S. Trustee shall not be effective until a successor U.S. trustee delivers a written acceptance of its appointment in accordance with this Section 12.2(b).

If a successor U.S. Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring U.S. Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring U.S. Trustee or the holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor U.S. Trustee at the expense of the Corporation.

Notwithstanding replacement of the U.S. Trustee pursuant to this Section 12.2(b), the Corporation’s obligations under Sections 6.2 and 12.16 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring U.S. Trustee.

If the U.S. Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person without any further act shall, if such resulting, surviving or transferee Person is otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor U.S. Trustee; provided that, such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article 12.

12.3 Duties of Trustee and Co-Trustee

(a) In the exercise of the rights, duties and obligations prescribed or conferred by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee shall act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Noteholders and

exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent trustee would exercise in comparable circumstances.

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee need perform such duties and only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee or the Co-Trustee.

(c) If an Event of Default known to the U.S. Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs, subject however to Section 12.28 hereof.

(d) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the U.S. Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the U.S. Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the U.S. Trustee, the U.S. Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(e) Each of the Trustee and the Co-Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own gross negligent action, its own gross negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i) This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraphs (b) and (d) of this Section 12.3;

(ii) Neither the Trustee nor the Co-Trustee shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith, unless it is proved that the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, as applicable, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(iii) Neither the Trustee nor the Co-Trustee shall be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to the terms of Section 10.11 hereof; and

(iv) No provision of this Indenture shall require the U.S. Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(f) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the U.S. Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

(g) Each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest or premium, of any, on the Notes, and the Corporation and the Paying Agent shall notify the Trustee and the Co-Trustee in writing of any default by the Corporation in making any such payment. Money held in trust by the Paying Agent need not be segregated except as required by law and in no event shall the Paying Agent be liable for any interest on any money received by it hereunder. The Corporation at any time may require the Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default specified in Sections 7.1(a) or 7.1(b), upon written request to the Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay forthwith all money so held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon making such payment, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no liability for funds that have been disbursed by a Paying Agent other than the Trustee.

12.4 Certain Rights

(a) In the exercise of its rights, duties and obligations hereunder the Trustee may, if acting in good faith, act and rely, as to the truth of the statements and accuracy of the opinions expressed therein, upon statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates furnished pursuant to any covenant, condition or requirement of this Indenture or required by the Trustee to be furnished to it in the exercise of its rights and duties hereunder, if the Trustee examines such statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates and determines that they comply with Section 12.5, if applicable, and with any other applicable requirements of this Indenture. The Trustee may nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable. Without restricting the foregoing, the Trustee may act and rely on an opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee notwithstanding that it is delivered by a solicitor or firm which acts as solicitors for the Corporation. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely, and act upon, on any direction, order, Instruction, notice or other communication provided to it hereunder which is sent to it by facsimile transmission or electronic delivery.

(f) The U.S. Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Note holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the U.S. Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the U.S. Trustee against the fees, costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(g) The U.S. Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the U.S. Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the U.S. Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Corporation, personally or by agent or attorney.

(h) The U.S. Trustee may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the U.S. Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

The U.S. Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes. The U.S. Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Corporation of the Notes or the proceeds thereof.

12.5 Evidence and Authority to Trustee and Co-Trustee, Opinions, Etc.

The Corporation shall furnish to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee evidence of compliance with the conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture (including any covenants compliance with which constitutes a condition precedent) which relate to the authentication and delivery of the Notes, to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or to any other action to be taken by the Trustee or the Co-Trustee at the request or upon the application of the Corporation.

With respect to evidence to be delivered to the Trustee, whenever such evidence relates to a matter other than the certificates and delivery of Notes and the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such evidence may consist of a report or opinion of any solicitor, auditor, accountant, engineer or appraiser or any other person whose qualifications give authority to a statement made by him, provided that if such report or opinion is furnished by a trustee, officer or employer of the Corporation it shall be in the form of a statutory declaration. Such evidence shall be, so far as appropriate, in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph of this Section.

Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than certificates provided pursuant to Section 6.6 hereof) shall include (1) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition; (2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; (3) a statement that, in the belief of each such person, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with (which, in the case of an opinion of Counsel, may be limited to reliance on an Officers’ Certificate as to matters of fact); and (4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, the condition or covenant has been complied with.

Unless herein otherwise expressly provided, any of the funds held by the Trustee may be deposited in a trust account in the name of the Trustee, in the deposit department of the Trustee or in any chartered bank of Canada, which account may be non-interest bearing. Until the Trustee shall have declared the principal and interest to be due and payable, upon the written direction of the Corporation, the Trustee shall invest in its name such funds in securities in which, under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, trustees are authorized to invest trust monies, in accordance with such direction. Any direction by the Corporation to the Trustee as to the investment of the funds shall be in writing and shall be provided to the Trustee no later than 8:30 a.m. (Vancouver time) on the day on which the investment is to be made. Any such direction received by the Trustee after 8:30 a.m. (Vancouver time) or received on a non-Business Day, shall be deemed to have been given prior to 8:30 a.m. (Vancouver time) the next Business Day.

In the event that the Trustee does not receive a direction or only a partial direction, the Trustee may hold cash balances constituting part or all of the funds and may, but need not, invest same in its deposit department or the deposit department of one of its affiliates; provided that the Trustee and its affiliates shall not be liable to account for any profit to any parties to this Indenture or to any person or entity other than at a rate, if any, established from time to time by the Trustee.

Unless and until the Trustee shall have declared the principal of and interest (and premium, if any) on the Notes to be due and payable, the Trustee shall pay over to the Corporation all interest received by the Trustee with respect to any investments or deposits made subject to the provisions of this Section.

The Trustee will bear no liability for monies deposited other than with the Trustee. The Trustee will disburse monies according to this Indenture only to the extent that monies have been deposited with it.

12.13 Trustee Protected in Acting

The Trustee may act and rely, and shall be protected in acting and relying absolutely, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, letter, facsimile transmission, directions or other paper document believed in good faith by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by or on behalf of the proper party or parties. The Trustee shall be protected in acting and relying upon any written notice, request, waiver, consent, certificate, receipt, statutory declaration, affidavit or other paper or document furnished to it, not only as to its due execution and the validity and the effectiveness of its provisions but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained which it in good faith believes to be genuine and what it purports to be.

12.14 Conditions Precedent to Trustee’s and Co-Trustee’s Obligations to Act Hereunder

The obligation of the Trustee and the Co-Trustee to commence or continue any act, action or proceeding for the purpose of enforcing the rights of the Trustee, the Co-Trustee and of the Noteholders hereunder shall be conditional upon the Noteholders furnishing when required by notice in writing by the Trustee or the Co-Trustee, sufficient funds to commence or continue such act, action or proceeding and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee to protect and hold harmless the Trustee and the Co-Trustee against the costs, charges and expenses and liabilities to be incurred thereby and any loss and damage it may suffer by reason thereof.

The Corporation need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent must not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnity shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Co-Trustee or the discharge of this Indenture.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, and whether such losses or damages are foreseeable or unforeseeable, neither the Trustee nor the U.S. Trustee shall be liable under any circumstances whatsoever for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary, aggravated or punitive losses or damages of any kind.

(d) Provisions contained in this Section 12.16 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the Co-Trustee and the termination of this Indenture.

Each party to this Indenture (in this paragraph referred to as a “representing party”) hereby represents to the Trustee that any account to be opened by, or interest to held by, the Trustee in connection with this Indenture, for or to the credit of such representing party, either (i) is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party; or (ii) is intended to be used by or on behalf of a third party, in which case such representing party hereby agrees to complete, execute and deliver forthwith to the Trustee a declaration, in the Trustee’s prescribed form or in such other form as may be satisfactory to it, as to the particulars of such third party.

(b) Neither the Trustee nor the Co-Trustee shall be liable for any consequential, punitive or special damages.

12.22 Anti-Money Laundering

The Trustee shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever, the Trustee, in its sole judgment and acting reasonably, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline.

TERRACE ENERGY CORP.

(A corporation incorporated under the laws of British Columbia)

8.0% CONVERTIBLE UNSECURED NOTES

Terrace Energy Corp. (the “Corporation”) for value received hereby acknowledges itself indebted and, subject to the provisions of the Note Indenture (the “Indenture”) dated as of October 15, 2014 among the Corporation, Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Trustee”) and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as U.S. trustee, promises to [INSERT NAME OF HOLDER] (the “Holder”) hereof on April 2, 2018 or on such earlier date as the principal amount hereof may become due in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture (any such date, the “Maturity Date”) the principal sum of · Dollars ($·) in lawful money of Canada on presentation and surrender of this Note at the main branch of the Trustee in Vancouver, British Columbia or in Toronto, Ontario in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and, subject as hereinafter provided, to pay interest on the principal amount hereof from July 31, 2014 the rate of 8.0% per annum (based on a year of 365 days and the actual number of days in the relevant interest period), in like money, in arrears in quarterly instalments (less any tax required by law to be deducted) on the last day of April, July, October and January in each fiscal year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing on October 31, 2014 and the last payment (representing interest payable from the last Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date) to fall due on the Maturity Date and, should the Corporation at any time make default in the payment of any principal, premium, if any, or interest, to pay interest on the amount in default at the same rate, in like money and on the same dates; provided, however, that if the Corporation fails to make an interest payment on or before the Cure Deadline (as defined below) applicable to an Interest Payment Date, the Corporation shall pay to the registered holder hereof an additional interest payment in respect of such Interest Payment Date in an amount equal to 10.0% of the interest payment that was otherwise due on such Interest Payment Date. “Cure Deadline” means the date that is 15 days after an Interest Payment Date.

Any payment required to be made on any day that is not a Business Day will be made on the next succeeding Business Day. The record dates for the payment of interest on this Note will be the eighth Business Day

A-1

prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. For the purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), whenever interest is computed under this Note on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest by the actual number of days in such calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year.

This Note is one of the 8.0% Convertible Unsecured Notes (referred to herein as the “Notes”) of the Corporation issued or issuable under the provisions of the Indenture. Reference is hereby expressly made to the Indenture for a description of the terms and conditions upon which the Notes are or are to be issued and held and the rights and remedies of the holders of the Notes and of the Corporation and of the Trustee, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Indenture were herein set forth to all of which provisions the holder of this Note by acceptance hereof assents.

The Notes are issuable only in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. Upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, Notes of any denomination may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes in any other authorized denomination or denominations.

This Note may be redeemed at the option of the Corporation on the terms and conditions set out in the Indenture, except in the event of the satisfaction of certain conditions after a Change of Control or a Sales Transaction (each as defined below) has occurred, as follows:

(a) At any time prior to the Maturity Date of the Notes, the Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Corporation in whole or in part from time to time on notice as provided for in Section 4.3 at the Redemption Price on the date fixed for redemption (the “Redemption Date”).

“Redemption Price” means, in respect of a Note, the amount payable on the Redemption Date fixed for such Note, which shall equal the following:

(ii) if such notice is given on or after April 2, 2015, at par,

and, in each case, together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon up to (but excluding) the Redemption Date.

(b) In the event that at any time prior to the Maturity Date the closing price of the common shares of the Corporation (the “Common Shares”) on the TSX Venture Exchange or any other exchange or quotation system on which the Common Shares are then listed or quoted is equal to or greater than 140% of the Conversion Price (as defined below) of the Notes for 30 consecutive trading days (the last such trading day being referred to as a “Trigger Date”), the Corporation shall have the right at its option to redeem any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the principal amount of a Note in exchange for the issuance of Common Shares at the Conversion Price on giving the Holder 10 days’ notice thereof. The date of such notice shall be no later than five trading days following the respective Trigger Date.

(c) Except as provided below, no adjustment in the number of Common Shares to be issued upon redemption pursuant to clause 4.1(b) will be made for dividends or distributions on Common Shares issuable upon redemption or for interest accrued on Notes surrendered. No fractional Common Shares will be issued, and any fractions resulting from a conversion will be rounded down to the next whole number. The Conversion Price applicable to, and the Common Shares receivable on the redemption of, the Notes is subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.4 of the Indenture.

Any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the principal of this Note, provided that the principal amount of this Note is in a denomination in excess of $1,000, is convertible, at the option of the Holder, upon surrender of this Note at the principal office of the Trustee in Vancouver, British Columbia or in Toronto,

A-2

Ontario, at any time prior to the earlier of 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date that is the Business Day before eight Business Days immediately preceding the Maturity Date and 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date that is the Business Day before eight Business Days immediately preceding the date specified for redemption of this Note, into Common Shares (without adjustment for interest accrued hereon or for dividends or distributions on Common Shares issuable upon conversion) at the conversion price in effect on the date thereof (the “Conversion Price”) per Common Share, all subject to the terms and conditions and in the manner set forth in the Indenture. No Notes may be converted during the eight Business Days preceding and including the last day of January, April, July and October in each year, commencing on October 31, 2014, as the registers of the Trustee will be closed during such periods. The Indenture makes provision for the adjustment of the Conversion Price in the events therein specified. No fractional Common Shares will be issued on any conversion, and any fractions resulting from a conversion will be rounded down to the next whole number. Holders converting Notes shall receive accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the period of the last Interest Payment Date prior to the Date of Conversion to but not including the Date of Conversion. If a Note is surrendered for conversion on an Interest Payment Date or during the eight preceding Business Days, the person or persons entitled to receive Common Shares in respect of the Notes so surrendered for conversion shall not become the holder or holders of record of such Common Shares until the Business Day following such Interest Payment Date.

Upon the occurrence of Change of Control of the Corporation, the Corporation is required to make an offer to purchase all or any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the Notes in cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the date of purchase on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture. “Change of Control” means any transaction resulting in the acquisition by any Person, together with its associates and affiliates (as each term is defined in the BCSA), acquires more than 50% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

This Note ranks pari passu with each other Note issued under the Indenture (regardless of their actual date or terms of issue) and, except as prescribed by law, with all other existing and future unsecured indebtedness of the Corporation.

If the Corporation sells, transfers, leases, conveys or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its properties and assets on a consolidated basis to any person (other than a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Corporation) (a “Sale Transaction”) and the Corporation does not reinvest all or substantially all of the Net Proceeds of such Sale Transaction in the Business within 180 days of the closing date of such Sale Transaction, then the Corporation shall offer to purchase all or any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the Notes in cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount due under such Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest (if any) to the date of purchase on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture. “Net Proceeds” means the net cash proceeds received by the Corporation and/or its Subsidiaries as a result of a Sale Transaction after deductions and/or accruals of costs, expenses, liabilities and taxes. “Business” means the business and operations carried on by the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, including oil and gas exploration, drilling, processing, joint ventures, investments in oil and gas properties, interests, joint ventures, marketing, sales, reclamation and activities related or ancillary thereto.

The principal hereof may become or be declared due and payable before the stated maturity in the events, in the manner, with the effect and at the times provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions making binding upon all holders of Notes outstanding thereunder resolutions passed at meetings of such holders held in accordance with such provisions and instruments signed by the holders of a specified majority of Notes outstanding, which resolutions or instruments may have the effect of amending the terms of this Note or the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions disclaiming any personal liability on the part of holders of Common Shares and officers, directors and employees of the Corporation in respect of any obligation or claim arising out of the Indenture or this Note.

This Note may only be transferred, upon compliance with the conditions prescribed in the Indenture, in one of the registers to be kept at the principal office of the Trustee in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia or the City of Toronto, Ontario and in such other place or places and/or by such other registrars (if any) as the Corporation

The undersigned Seller (A) acknowledges that the sale of Notes/Underlying Shares of the Company to which this declaration relates, represented by certificate number , has been made in reliance on Rule 904 of Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), and (B) certifies that (1) the undersigned is not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act) of the Company; (2) the offer of such securities was not made to a person in the United States and either (a) at the time the buy order was originated, the buyer was outside the United States, or the seller and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believe that the buyer was outside the United States, or (b) the transaction was executed in, on or through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (or another “designated offshore securities market”), and neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction was prearranged with a buyer in the United States; (3) neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf engaged in any “directed selling efforts” in the United States in connection with the offer and sale of such securities; (4) the sale is bona fide and not for the purpose of “washing off” the resale restrictions imposed because the securities are “restricted securities” (as that term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act); (5) the seller does not intend to replace the securities sold in reliance on Rule 904 of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act with fungible unrestricted securities; and (6) the contemplated sale is not a transaction, or part of a series of transactions which, although in technical compliance with Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the U.S. Securities Act.
