No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement is in effect and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or is pending or, to the knowledge of the Corporation, is contemplated or threatened by the SEC. No order preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectuses, the Prospectuses or the Time of Sale Prospectus has been issued by the SEC or any Canadian Securities Commission.

(1)The Corporation shall indemnify and save harmless each of the Underwriters and their respective affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and persons deemed to be in control of the Underwriters or any of their affiliates (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" and individually an "Indemnified Party") from and against all losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Parties' counsel that may be incurred in advising with respect to or defending such claim), joint or several, as they may be incurred, in any capacity under any statute or common law or otherwise insofar as such losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities as they may be incurred, relate to or arise in any action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim relevant to the performance of professional services rendered to the Corporation by the Indemnified Parties or otherwise in connection with the matters referred to in this Agreement, including, whether performed before or after the execution of this Agreement by the Corporation without limitation, in any way caused by, or arising directly or indirectly from, or in consequence of:
(a)(i) any information or statement contained in any Offering Document, which at the time and in light of the circumstances under which it was made contains or is alleged to contain a misrepresentation; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in an Offering Document, in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus filed or required

30

to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the U.S. Securities Act; or (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Offering Document, in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the U.S. Securities Act, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made, in the case of any prospectus) not misleading; provided, however, that the Corporation will not be liable in any such case to the extent but only to the extent that any such losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities arise out of or are based upon any such misrepresentation, untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Lead Underwriters expressly for use therein or any Selling Shareholder Information;

(b)the breach of, or default under, any term, condition, covenant or agreement of the Corporation made or contained herein or in any other document of the Corporation delivered pursuant hereto or the breach of any representation or warranty of the Corporation made or contained herein or in any other document of the Corporation delivered pursuant hereto or in connection with the sale of the Offered Shares;
(c)any order made or inquiry, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened by any securities regulatory authority, stock exchange or by any other competent based upon a statement, omission or misrepresentation or alleged untrue statement, omission or misrepresentation (other than any actual or alleged statement, omission or misrepresentation based upon any such misrepresentation, untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Lead Underwriters or any Selling Shareholder Information) which prevents or restricts the trading in or the sale of the Corporation's securities or the distribution of the Offered Shares in any jurisdiction; or
(d)the non-compliance by the Corporation with any of the Applicable Securities Laws relating to or connected with the distribution of the Offered Shares, including the Corporation's non-compliance with any statutory requirement to make any document available for inspection;

provided that the Corporation shall have no liability, if and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment from which no appeal can be made or a regulatory authority in a final ruling from which no appeal can be made shall determine that the losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities resulted from the gross negligence, fraud or wilful misconduct of an Indemnified Party, in which case such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse to the Corporation any funds advanced to any Indemnified Party in respect of such claim and the indemnity provided for in this Section 11 shall cease to apply in respect of such claim. For greater certainty, the Corporation and the Underwriters agree that they do not intend that any failure by the Underwriters to conduct such reasonable investigation as necessary to provide the Underwriters with reasonable grounds for believing the Offering Document contained no misrepresentation shall constitute "gross negligence" or "wilful misconduct" for the purposes of this Section 11 or otherwise disentitle the Underwriters from indemnification hereunder.

(2)The Selling Shareholder shall indemnify and save harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against all losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Parties' counsel that may be incurred in advising with respect to or defending such claim), joint or several, as they may be incurred, in any capacity under any statute or common law or otherwise insofar as such losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities as they may be incurred, relate to or arise in any action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim relevant to the performance of professional services rendered to the Selling Shareholder by the Indemnified Parties or otherwise in connection with the matters referred to in this Agreement, including, whether performed before or after the execution of this Agreement by the Selling

31

Shareholder without limitation, in any way caused by, or arising directly or indirectly from, or in consequence of:

(a)(i) any information or statement contained in any Offering Document in respect of Selling Shareholder Information, which at the time and in light of the circumstances under which it was made contains or is alleged to contain a misrepresentation; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in an Offering Document in respect of Selling Shareholder Information, in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the U.S. Securities Act; or (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Offering Document, in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the U.S. Securities Act, a material fact in the Selling Shareholder Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made, in the case of any prospectus) not misleading;
(b)the breach of, or default under, any term, condition, covenant or agreement of the Selling Shareholder made or contained herein or in any other document of the Selling Shareholder delivered pursuant hereto or the breach of any representation or warranty of the Selling Shareholder made or contained herein or in any other document of the Selling Shareholder delivered pursuant hereto or in connection with the sale of the Offered Shares;
(c)any order made or inquiry, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened by any securities regulatory authority, stock exchange or by any other competent based upon a statement, omission or misrepresentation or alleged untrue statement, omission or misrepresentation in the Selling Shareholder Information which prevents or restricts the trading in or the sale of the Corporation's securities or the distribution of the Offered Shares in any jurisdiction; or
(d)the non-compliance by the Selling Shareholder with any of the Applicable Securities Laws relating to or connected with the distribution of the Offered Shares, including the Selling Shareholder's non-compliance with any statutory requirement to make any document available for inspection;

provided that the Selling Shareholder shall have no liability, if and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment from which no appeal can be made or a regulatory authority in a final ruling from which no appeal can be made shall determine that the losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities resulted from the gross negligence, fraud or wilful misconduct of an Indemnified Party, in which case such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse to the Selling Shareholder any funds advanced to any Indemnified Party in respect of such claim and the indemnity provided for in this Section 11 shall cease to apply in respect of such claim. For greater certainty, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters agree that they do not intend that any failure by the Underwriters to conduct such reasonable investigation as necessary to provide the Underwriters with reasonable grounds for believing the Offering Document contained no misrepresentation shall constitute "gross negligence" or "wilful misconduct" for the purposes of this Section 11 or otherwise disentitle the Underwriters from indemnification hereunder.

(3)If any claim contemplated by this Section 11 shall be asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties, or if any potential claim contemplated by this Section 11 shall come to the knowledge of any of the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnified Party concerned shall notify in writing the Corporation in the case of claim pursuant to Section 11(1) or the Selling Shareholder in the case of claims pursuant to Section 11(2) (such party receiving such notice, the “Applicable Indemnifying Party”), as soon as possible of the nature of such claim (provided that any failure to so notify in respect of any potential claim shall affect the liability of the Applicable Indemnifying Party under this Section 11 only to the extent that the Applicable Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure). The Applicable Indemnifying Party shall, subject as hereinafter provided, be entitled (but not required) to assume the defence on behalf of the Indemnified Party of any suit brought to enforce

32

such claim; provided that the defence shall be through legal counsel selected by the Applicable Indemnifying Party and acceptable to the Indemnified Party, acting reasonably, and no admission of liability shall be made by the Applicable Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party without, in each case, the prior written consent of all the Indemnified Parties affected and the Applicable Indemnifying Party. If a firm offer is made to settle a third party claim without the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Parties and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such third party claim and the Applicable Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Applicable Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Parties. If an Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within 10 days after its receipt of such notice, the Applicable Indemnifying Party may continue to contest or defend such third party claim and, in such event, the maximum liability of the Applicable Indemnifying Party as to such third party claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If such Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume the defence of such third party claim, the Applicable Indemnifying Party may settle the third party claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such third party claim. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any suit and participate in the defence thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless:

(a)the Applicable Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defence of such suit on behalf of the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after receiving actual notice of such suit;
(b)the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Applicable Indemnifying Party;
(c)the named parties to any such suit (including any added or third parties) include the Indemnified Party and the Applicable Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and the Applicable Indemnifying Party shall have been advised in writing by counsel that representation of the Indemnified Party by counsel for the Applicable Indemnifying Party is inappropriate as a result of the potential or actual conflicting interests of those represented; or
(d)the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, upon advice in writing by outside counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Applicable Indemnifying Party;

and in each of cases Section 11(3)(a), Section 11(3)(b), Section 11(3)(c) or Section 11(3)(d), the Applicable Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defence of such suit on behalf of the Indemnified Party, but the Applicable Indemnifying Party shall only be liable to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction. In no event shall the Applicable Indemnifying Party be required to pay the fees and disbursements of more than one set of counsel (in addition to local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties in respect of any particular claim or set of claims in one jurisdiction. No settlement may be made by an Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Applicable Indemnifying Party. If a firm offer is made to settle a third party claim and the Indemnified Party who has assumed control of the defence of such suit desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnified Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Applicable Indemnifying Party. The Applicable Indemnifying Party may continue to contest or defend such third party claim and, in such event, the Applicable Indemnifying Party shall, in addition to any obligations hereunder, indemnify the Indemnified party for any additional damages however arising form such claim which exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If such Applicable Indemnifying Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume the defence of such third party claim, the Indemnified Party may settle the third party claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such third party claim.

33

(4)To the extent that any Indemnified Party is not a party to this Agreement, the Underwriters hold the right and benefit of this Section 11 in trust for and on behalf of such Indemnified Party.
(5)The Applicable Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties, effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened claim, investigation, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity or contribution may be or could have been sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or judgment: (a) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Parties from all liability arising out of such claim, investigation, action or proceeding; and (b) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or any failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.
(6)The Applicable Indemnifying Party agrees to waive any right it may have of first requiring an Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any other right, power, remedy or security or claim payment from any other person before claiming under this indemnity. The Applicable Indemnifying Party also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Applicable Indemnifying Party or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Applicable Indemnifying Party for or in connection with the Offering or any matter herein, including without limitation, related to services and activities prior to the date of this Agreement, except to the extent any losses suffered by the Corporation are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgement that has become non-appealable to have directly resulted from the fraud, gross negligence, illegal acts, or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party in performing the services that are subject of this Agreement.
(7)Provided that such Non-Canadian Underwriters have not terminated and cancelled their obligations to the Corporation in accordance with this Agreement, each Non-Canadian Underwriter agrees that if any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several are suffered by an Indemnified Party as contemplated by Section 11(1) or Section 11(2) (and such claims did not include such Non-Canadian Underwriter on the basis that it did not sign the underwriters’ certificate to the Canadian Final Prospectus and such claims would have included such Non-Canadian Underwriter if it had signed such certificate) under Section 130 of the Securities Act (Ontario) or the equivalent provisions of Canadian Securities Laws in the other Qualifying Jurisdictions based upon a misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation within the meaning of applicable Canadian Securities Laws in the Canadian Final Prospectus, and such Indemnified Party is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental authority in a final judgment or decision from which no appeal can be made to be liable pursuant to such laws in respect of such claims and such Indemnified Party does pay such claims (the “Liability Amount”), then such Non-Canadian Underwriter shall indemnify on a several basis, and not a joint or joint and several basis, such Indemnified Party from and against the Liability Amount for such Non-Canadian Underwriter’s pro rata share of such Liability Amount, on the basis of and assuming that such Non-Canadian Underwriters had signed the underwriters’ certificate to the Canadian Final Prospectus, but only to the extent of its underwriting obligation under Section 22(1) hereto. Each Non-Canadian Underwriter shall further indemnify such Indemnified Party, without regard to the final outcome of any such claims, for such Non-Canadian Underwriter’s pro rata share of any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred and paid by such Indemnified Party in connection with the investigation or defence of any such claims (the “Indemnified Expenses”). For the purposes of determining the aggregate amount that the applicable Non-Canadian Underwriter is obligated to indemnify all other Indemnified Parties, “pro rata” will be based on the percentage set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Section 22(1) hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the maximum aggregate amount which a Non-Canadian Underwriter is required to indemnify the other Indemnified Parties under this Section 11(7) shall be the lesser of (i) the percentage of the total of the Liability Amount and Indemnified Expenses equal to the percentage Units set forth opposite such Non-Canadian Underwriter’s name in Section 22(1), and (ii) the total public offering price of the Firm Shares and Additional Shares such Non-Canadian Underwriter is required to place or purchase in accordance with the terms hereof. The amount payable by a Non-Canadian Underwriter to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Section 11(7) shall be reduced to the extent

34

that such Non-Canadian Underwriter is required to pay damages directly to plaintiffs under Canadian Securities Laws in connection with the claim or claims that are the subject matter of the indemnification being sought. Further, a Non-Canadian Underwriter will only be required to make payment to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 11(7) if (i) such Indemnified Party has used reasonable commercial efforts to be reimbursed for the Liability Amount and Indemnified Expenses pursuant to this Section 11(7) but has not been fully reimbursed and (ii) it has not been determined (either by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment from which no appeal can be made or by acknowledgement of the indemnified party) that the claim resulting in the Liability Amount and Indemnified Expenses was caused by or resulted from the fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnified Party and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment from which no appeal can be made determines, or the Indemnified Party acknowledges, that such claim to which such Indemnified Party is subject was caused by or resulted from the fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnified Party then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse to such Non-Canadian Underwriter any Indemnified Expenses. If any claim is asserted against any Indemnified Party that is or may be subject to indemnification under this Section 11(7), the Indemnified Party will notify the Non-Canadian Underwriters in writing as soon as possible of the particulars of such claim (but the omission so to notify the applicable Non-Canadian Underwriters of any potential claim shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party and any omission so to notify a Non-Canadian Underwriter of any actual claim shall affect its liability only to the extent that such Non-Canadian Underwriter is actually and materially prejudiced by that failure). Each Non-Canadian Underwriter agrees that, to the extent it is not a party to such claim, the other Underwriters will be entitled to conduct the defence of any such action or proceeding brought to enforce such claim, and such Non-Canadian Underwriter’s liability hereunder shall not be reduced in any way based upon the conduct of such defence unless the Indemnified Parties are determined to be grossly negligent (by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment from which no appeal can be made) in conducting such defence. The Underwriters shall provide the Non-Canadian Underwriters with notice of any material developments in the action or proceeding. With respect to any Indemnified Party who is not a party to this Agreement, the Underwriters other than the Non-Canadian Underwriters shall obtain and hold the rights and benefits of this Section 11(7) in trust for and on behalf of such Indemnified Party.

Section 12           Contribution
(1)In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity provided in Section 11 hereof would otherwise be available in accordance with its terms but is, for any reason not solely attributable to any one or more of the Indemnified Parties, held to be unavailable to or unenforceable by the Indemnified Parties or enforceable otherwise than in accordance with its terms, the Underwriters and the Applicable Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the aggregate of all losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities (other than losses of profits or consequential damages) of the nature contemplated in Section 11 hereof and suffered or incurred by the Indemnified Parties in proportions as is appropriate to reflect: (i) as between the Applicable Indemnifying Party and the Underwriters, the relative benefits received by the Underwriters, on the one hand (being the Underwriting Fee received from such Applicable Indemnifying Party), and the relative benefits received by the Applicable Indemnifying Party, on the other hand (being the net proceeds of the Offering, before expenses, received by such Applicable Indemnifying Party) from the Offering; (ii) as between the Applicable Indemnifying Party and the Underwriters, the relative fault of the Applicable Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand; and (iii) relevant equitable considerations; provided that the Underwriters shall not in any event be liable to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the Underwriting Fee or any portion thereof actually received from such Applicable Indemnifying Party. However, no party who has been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgement to have engaged in any fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence, illegal acts or wilful misconduct shall be entitled to claim contribution from any person who has not been so determined to have engaged in such fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence, illegal acts or wilful misconduct.

35

(2)The rights to contribution provided in this Section 12 shall be in addition to and not in derogation of any other right to contribution which the Indemnified Parties may have by statute or otherwise at law provided that Section 12(1) hereof shall apply, mutatis mutandis, in respect of such other right.
(3)Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receiving notice of commencement of any claim, action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against the other party under this section, notify in writing such party from whom contribution may be sought. In no case shall such party from whom contribution may be sought be liable under this Agreement unless such notice has been provided, but the omission to so notify such party shall not relieve the party from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it may have otherwise than under this Section 12, except to the extent such party is materially prejudiced by the failure to receive such notice. The right to contribution provided in this Section 12 shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, any other right to contribution that the Underwriters or the Applicable Indemnifying Party may have by statute or otherwise by law. The obligations of the Underwriters to contribute pursuant to this Section 12 are several in proportion to the number of Offered Shares to be purchased by each of the Underwriters hereunder and not joint.
Section 13           All Terms to be Conditions

Each of the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder agrees that the conditions contained in this Agreement will be complied with insofar as the same relate to acts to be performed or caused to be performed by it. Any breach or failure of the Corporation to comply with any of the conditions set out in this Agreement in any material respect shall entitle the Underwriters to terminate their obligation to purchase the Offered Shares in accordance with Section 14(1)(d), by written notice to that effect given to the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder at or prior to the Closing Time or the Option Closing Time, as applicable. It is understood that the Underwriters may waive, in whole or in part, or extend the time for compliance with, any of such terms and conditions without prejudice to the rights of the Underwriters in respect of any such terms and conditions or any other or subsequent breach or non-compliance, provided that to be binding on the Underwriters any such waiver or extension must be in writing and signed by the Underwriters.

Section 14           Termination by Underwriters
(1)Each Underwriter shall also be entitled to terminate its obligation to purchase the Offered Shares by written notice to that effect to the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder by the Lead Underwriters at or prior to the Closing Time (with respect to the Firm Shares) or the Option Closing Time (with respect to the Additional Shares), as applicable, if:
(a)there should occur any material change in the business, affairs, operations, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), condition (financial or otherwise) or capital of the Corporation or a change in any material fact, or the Underwriters become aware of any undisclosed material information, which in each case, in the opinion of an Underwriter, acting reasonably, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the market price or value of the Offered Shares;
(b)prior to the Closing Time, there should develop, occur or come into effect or existence any event, action, state, condition or major financial occurrence of national or international consequence or any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities, or any law or regulation is adopted or enacted which, in the opinion of any of the Underwriters, acting reasonably and in good faith, materially adversely affects or could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the financial markets in Canada or in the United States or the business, operations or affairs of the Corporation and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;
(c)there should occur or commence or be announced or threatened in writing any inquiry, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding which has not been revoked, rescinded or withdrawn by any Governmental Authority or any order or ruling is issued under or pursuant to any

36

statute of Canada or the United States or of any province or territory of Canada, or state of the United States by any Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, the Commission, the securities regulatory authority in each of the other Qualifying Jurisdictions, the TSX, NASDAQ or the SEC) (other than any such inquiry, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding or order relating solely to any of the Underwriters), which in the reasonable opinion of an Underwriter would be expected to operate to prevent or materially restrict trading in or distribution of the Offered Shares or would have a material adverse effect on the market price or value of the Offered Shares; or

(d)the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder is in breach of any term, condition or covenant of this Agreement in any material respect which is not reasonably expected to be remedied prior to Closing.
(2)If this Agreement is terminated by any of the Underwriters pursuant to Section 14(1), there shall be no further liability on the part of such Underwriter or of the Corporation or Selling Shareholder to such Underwriter, except in respect of any liability which may have arisen or may thereafter arise under Section 11, Section 12 and Section 18.
(3)The right of the Underwriters or any of them to terminate their respective obligations under this Agreement is in addition to such other remedies as they may have in respect of any default, act or failure to act of the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder in respect of any of the matters contemplated by this Agreement. A notice of termination given by one Underwriter under this Section 14 shall not be binding upon the other Underwriters.
Section 15           Closing

The closing of the purchase and sale of the Firm Shares herein provided for shall be completed at 8:00 a.m. (E.S.T.) on June 15, 2021, or such other date and/or time as may be agreed upon in writing by the Corporation and the Lead Underwriters, but in any event not later than 42 days following the filing of the Canadian Final Prospectus (respectively, the "Closing Time" and the "Closing Date"), at the offices of Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP in Toronto, Ontario. In the event that the Closing Time has not occurred on or before the date which is 42 days following the filing of the Canadian Final Prospectus, this Agreement shall, subject to Section 14(2) hereof, terminate. At the Closing Time, the Corporation shall issue the Firm Shares as contemplated in Section 16(1)(d) against payment of US$5.75 per Firm Share by wire transfer or as otherwise directed by the Corporation.

Section 17          Over-Allotment Option

(1)The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised by the Lead Underwriters, on behalf of the Underwriters, at any time, in whole or in part by delivering notice (a “Over-Allotment Notice”) to the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder not later than 5:00 p.m. on the day that is two Business Days prior to 30th day after the Closing Date, which Over-Allotment Notice will specify the number of Additional Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters and the date (the "Option Closing Date") and time (the "Option Closing Time") on and at which such Additional Shares are to be purchased. Such Option Closing Date may be the same as (but not earlier than) the Closing Date and will not be earlier than two Business Days nor later than five Business Days after the date of delivery of such Over-Allotment Notice (except to the extent a shorter or longer period shall be agreed to by the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder). Subject to the terms of this Agreement, upon the Lead Underwriters furnishing an Over-Allotment Notice to the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder pursuant to this Section 17(1), the Underwriters will be committed to purchase the number of Additional Shares indicated in the Over-Allotment Notice, in the respective percentages set forth in Section 22. Upon delivery of an Over-Allotment Notice, the Selling Shareholder shall have 18 hours to deliver to the Underwriters and the Corporation a notice of its exercise of the Tag-Along Option (a “Tag-Along Notice”), which Tag-Along Notice shall specify the number of Additional Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters as Additional Secondary Shares, up to a maximum of 50% of the Additional Shares set out in the Over-Allotment Notice. Upon delivery of a Tag-Along Notice, the Selling Shareholder will be committed to sell to the Underwriters on the Option Closing Date in accordance with and subject to the provisions of this Agreement such number of Additional Secondary Shares set out in the Tag-Along Notice and the Corporation will be committed to issue and sell in accordance with and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the balance of the Additional Shares indicated in the Over-Allotment Notice which were not identified as Additional Secondary Shares in such Tag-Along Notice. If either no Tag-Along Notice is delivered to the Underwriters and the Corporation within such 18 hour notice period, or the Selling Shareholder notifies the Underwriters and the Corporation during such period that it does not intend to exercise the Tag-Along Notice, all Additional Shares shall be Additional Treasury Shares and the Corporation will be committed to issue and sell in accordance with and subject to the provisions of this Agreement all such Additional Shares set out in relevant Over-Allotment Notice. Additional Shares may be purchased by the Underwriters only for the purpose of satisfying over-allotments made in connection with the Offering.
(2)In the event that the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in accordance with its terms, the closing of the issuance and sale of that number of Additional Shares in respect of which the Underwriters are exercising the Over-Allotment Option shall take place at the Option Closing Time at the offices of Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP in Toronto, Ontario or at such other place as may be agreed to by the Lead Underwriters and the Corporation.
(3)At the Option Closing Time,
(a)the Selling Shareholder shall cause to be delivered to the Lead Underwriters, the certificate or certificates representing the Additional Secondary Shares, if any, in respect of which the Selling Shareholder has exercised its Tag-Along Option, registered in the name of the Lead Underwriter or such name as the Lead Underwriter may direct the Selling Shareholder in writing against payment of US$5.75 per Additional Secondary Share by wire transfer or as otherwise directed by the Selling Shareholder; and
(b)the Corporation shall issue to the Underwriters that number of Additional Treasury Shares as is equal to the number of Additional Shares required to be issued and sold by it pursuant to Section 17(1), and deposit with CDS or its nominee or DTC or its nominee, if requested by the Underwriters, such Additional Treasury Shares electronically through the non-certificated inventory system of CDS or DTC, as applicable, against payment of US$5.75 per Additional Treasury Share by wire transfer or as otherwise directed by the Corporation; and

40

(4)Concurrently with the deliveries and payment under Section 17(3), the Corporation shall pay the Underwriting Fee applicable to the Additional Treasury Shares and the Selling Shareholder shall pay the Underwriting Fee applicable to any Additional Secondary Shares, in each case, in the manner provided in Section 23(2) against delivery of a receipt for that payment.
(5)The obligation of the Underwriters to make any payment or delivery contemplated by this Section 17 is subject to the applicable conditions set forth in Section 16.
Section 18           Expenses
(1)The Corporation will pay all expenses and fees in connection with the Offering, including, without limitation: (a) all expenses of or incidental to the creation, issue, sale or distribution of the Offered Shares and the filing of the Offering Documents; (b) the fees and expenses of the Corporation's legal counsel and (c) all costs incurred in connection with the preparation of documentation relating to the Offering, excepting the Underwriters' out-of-pocket expenses and all fees and expenses of external Canadian and U.S. legal counsel for the Underwriters (collectively, "Underwriters' Expenses"). The Underwriters' Expenses shall be paid by the Underwriters except that the Underwriters will be reimbursed by the Corporation for (i) all documented and reasonable "out-of-pocket" Underwriters' Expenses up to a maximum of $100,000 (provided that any individual “out-of-pocket” expenses in excess of $10,000 shall require the prior written approval of the Corporation), and (ii) all documented and reasonable fees and expenses of external Canadian and U.S. legal counsel for the Underwriters up to a maximum of US$400,000 (excluding disbursements and applicable taxes).
(2)All Underwriters’ Expenses to be reimbursed by the Corporation shall be payable to the Underwriters at the Closing Time or the Option Closing Time, as the case may be, payment may be made by way of deduction by the Underwriters of the applicable portion of such Underwriters’ Expenses from the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering payable to the Corporation at the Closing Time or the Option Closing Time, as the case may be, or otherwise, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Underwriters shall acknowledge receipt of such payments by delivery to the Corporation of receipts therefor.
Section 19           No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship

Each of the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that: (a) the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the Offering Price of the Offered Shares and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm's-length commercial transaction between the Corporation, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand; (b) in connection with the Offering and the process leading to such transaction, each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of, as the case may be, the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder or their respective shareholders, creditors, employees or any other party; (c) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favour of the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder with respect to the Offering or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder with respect to the Offering except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (d) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder; and (e) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the Offering and each of the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deems appropriate.

The Corporation, the Underwriters and the Selling Shareholder may change their respective addresses for notice by notice given in the manner referred to above.

Section 21           Actions on Behalf of the Underwriters

The execution of the Agreement by the Underwriters shall constitute the authority for each of the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder to accepting notification of any steps from, and for giving notice to or from, and for delivering the Underwriting Fee to, or to the order of, the Lead Underwriters (or in the case of the Underwriting Fee, RBC) for and on behalf of the Underwriters as specifically contemplated in this Agreement, except in respect of: (i) a settlement of an indemnity claim pursuant to Section 11, which settlement shall be made by the Indemnified Party; (ii) any waiver pursuant to Section 13, which waiver may be given by any of the Underwriters exercising such waiver; or (iii) any notice of termination pursuant to Section 14, which notice may be given by any of the Underwriters exercising such right and each of the Corporation and the Selling Shareholder shall be able to rely on any such notice or other matter, provided by the Lead Underwriters on behalf of the other Underwriters without further investigation.

44

Section 22           Underwriters' Obligations
(1)Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Underwriters' obligations under this Agreement to purchase the Offered Shares shall be several and not joint and several and the liability of each of the Underwriters to purchase the Offered Shares shall be limited to the following percentages of the purchase price paid or to be paid for the Offered Shares:
RBC Dominion Securities Inc. 35%
Canaccord Genuity Corp. 30%
B. Riley Securities, Inc. 15%
Paradigm Capital Inc. 7%
Scotia Capital Inc. 7%
Alliance Global Partners 2%
Colliers Securities LLC 2%
Haywood Securities Inc. 2%

(2)If any of the Underwriters fails to purchase its applicable percentage of the Offered Shares at the Closing Time or the Option Closing Time, as the case may be (for purposes of this Section 22, a "Defaulting Underwriter"), and the percentage of Offered Shares that have not been purchased at such time by the Defaulting Underwriter represents 10% or less of the Offered Shares at such time, then the other Underwriters will be severally, and not jointly and severally, obligated to purchase, on a pro rata basis to their respective percentages as aforesaid, all but not less than all of the Offered Shares not purchased by the Defaulting Underwriter, and to receive the Defaulting Underwriter's portion of the Underwriting Fee in respect thereof, and such non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the right, by notice to the Corporation, to postpone the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, by not more than three Business Days to effect such purchase. In the event that the percentage of Offered Shares that have not been purchased by a Defaulting Underwriter represents more than 10% of the aggregate Offered Shares at the Closing Time or the Option Closing Time, as the case may be, the other Underwriters will have the right, but will not be obligated, to purchase all of the percentage of the Offered Shares which would otherwise have been purchased by the Defaulting Underwriter; the Underwriters exercising such right will purchase such Offered Shares, if applicable, pro rata to their respective percentages aforesaid or in such other proportions as they may otherwise agree. In the event that such right is not exercised, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be relieved of all obligations to the Corporation arising from such default. Nothing in this section shall oblige the Corporation to sell to the Underwriters less than all of the Offered Shares or relieve from liability to the Corporation any Underwriter which shall be so in default.
Section 23           Underwriting Fee
(1)In consideration of the agreement on the part of the Underwriters to purchase the Offered Shares and in consideration of the underwriting services rendered and to be rendered by the Underwriters hereunder, (i) the Corporation agrees to pay to RBC, on behalf of the Underwriters, at the Closing Time, and at the Option Closing Time, if any, a cash fee equal to 5.75% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering in respect of any Treasury Shares; and (ii) the Selling Shareholder agrees to pay to RBC, on behalf of the Underwriters, at the Option Closing Time, if any, a cash fee equal to 5.75% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering in respect of any Additional Secondary Shares (the "Underwriting Fee").
(2)The Underwriting Fee shall be payable to the Underwriters at the Closing Time or the Option Closing Time, as the case may be, which Underwriting Fee may be made by way of deduction by the Underwriters of the Underwriting Fee from the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering payable to the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder, as applicable, at the Closing Time or the Option Closing Time, as the case may be, or otherwise, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Underwriters shall acknowledge receipt of such payments by delivery to the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder, as applicable, of receipts therefor.

45

Section 24           Market Stabilization

In connection with the distribution of the Offered Shares, the Underwriters (or any of them) may effect transactions which stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares at levels other than those which might otherwise prevail in the open market, but in each case as permitted by Applicable Securities Laws. Such stabilizing transactions, if any, may be discontinued by the Underwriters at any time.

(2)In the event that any Underwriter is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate (as defined below) of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights (as defined below) under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

Any and all previous agreements with respect to the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares, whether written or oral, are terminated, and this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Corporation, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters with respect to the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares. The terms and provisions of this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Corporation, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters and their respective successors and assigns; provided that this Agreement will not be assignable by any party without the written consent of the others and any purported assignment without that consent will be invalid and of no force and effect.

46

Section 27           Publicity

Neither the Corporation nor the Underwriters shall make any public announcement concerning the appointment of the Underwriters or the Offering without the consent of the Underwriters or the Corporation, as applicable, acting reasonably, and any public announcements shall be made in compliance with Applicable Securities Laws. The Selling Shareholder shall not make any public announcement concerning the appointment of the Underwriters or the Offering without the consent of the Underwriters and the Corporation, acting reasonably, and any public announcements shall be made in compliance with Applicable Securities Laws.

Section 28           Governing Law

The Corporation, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters agree that any legal suit or proceeding arising with respect to this Agreement will be tried exclusively in the courts of the Province of Ontario in the City of Toronto, and the Corporation, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters agree to submit to the jurisdiction of, and to venue in, such courts. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any right to trial by jury with respect to any action or proceeding arising in connection with or as a result of either our engagement or any matter referred to in this Agreement is hereby waived by the parties hereto.

Section 29           Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be void or unenforceable in whole or in part, it shall be deemed not to affect or impair the validity of any other provision of this Agreement and such void or unenforceable provision shall be severable from this Agreement.

Section 30           Further Assurances

Each of the parties hereto shall do or cause to be done all such acts and things and shall execute or cause to be executed all such documents, agreements and other instruments as may reasonably be necessary or desirable for the purpose of carrying out the provisions and intent of this Agreement.

MATTERS TO BE ADDRESSED IN THE CORPORATION'S
U.S. COUNSEL OPINION

(a) Each Material Subsidiary (identified on Schedule B with “Opinion” noted after its name) incorporated or formed in the State of Delaware is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
(b) The statements in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the U.S. Final Prospectus under the heading "Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" to the extent that they address matters of United States federal income tax law,  are accurate summaries thereof in all material respects.

(c)

The Registration Statement and the U.S. Final Prospectus, as of its respective effective or issue date, appeared on its face to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC under the U.S. Securities Act, except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial and accounting and statistical data derived therefrom included or incorporated by reference in or omitted from either of them, as to which such counsel expresses no opinion; the Form F-X, as of its date, appears on its face to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the U.S. Securities Act. We have assumed, for purposes of this paragraph, (i) the compliance of the Canadian Prospectus with the requirements of Canadian Securities Laws, as interpreted and applied by the Canadian Securities Commissions, and (ii) that the exhibits to the Registration Statement and the documents incorporated by reference in the U.S. Final Prospectus include all reports or information that in accordance with the requirements of Canadian Securities Laws, as interpreted and applied by the Canadian Securities Commissions, must be made publicly available in connection with the offering of the Shares.

(d) The issuance and sale of the Offered Shares by the Corporation, the execution and delivery by the Corporation of the Underwriting Agreement and the performance by the Corporation of its obligations thereunder will not violate those laws, rules and regulations of the United States of America and the State of New York ("Applicable Law"), in each case which in such counsel's experience are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement. For purposes of such counsel's opinion letter, "Applicable Law" does not include federal securities laws (except for purposes of the opinion expressed in paragraph (f) below) or state securities laws or anti-fraud laws.
(e) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority, which has not been obtained, taken or made is required by the Corporation under any Applicable Law for the issuance and sale of the Offered Shares by the Corporation, the execution and delivery by the Corporation of the Underwriting Agreement and the performance by the Corporation of its obligations thereunder (other than related to state securities or ‘blue sky’ laws). For purposes of this opinion, the term "Governmental Authority" means any executive, legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body of the State of New York or the United States of America.  

(f) The Corporation is not required, and after giving effect to the offering and the sale of the Offered Shares and the application of the net proceeds as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the U.S. Final

D-1

Prospectus under the heading "Use of Proceeds," will not be required to be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Such counsel will include, or state in a separate letter, that they have participated in conferences and telephone conversations with representatives of the Underwriters, including their United States and Canadian counsel, officers and other representatives of the Corporation and the Corporation’s Canadian counsel, and the independent registered public accountants for the Corporation, at which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the U.S. Final Prospectus and related matters were discussed. Such counsel is not passing upon, and does not assume responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of any statement contained in the Registration Statement, the Time or Sale Prospectus or the U.S. Final Prospectus or any of the documents incorporated by reference therein, and has made no independent check or verification thereof (except as and to the extent, and only to the extent, referred to in paragraph (b) above relating to U.S. federal income tax matters). Based upon the foregoing (and relying as to factual matters to the extent such counsel deems appropriate on officers, employees and other representatives of the Corporation), such counsel advises that no facts have come to such counsel’s attention that lead such counsel to believe that (a) at the time it became effective, the Registration Statement (except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial and accounting or statistical data derived therefrom included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom or from those documents incorporated by reference, in each case as to which such counsel expresses no such belief), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (b) the Time of Sale Prospectus, as of the Applicable Time (except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial and accounting or statistical data derived therefrom included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom or from those documents incorporated by reference, in each case as to which such counsel expresses no such belief) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (c) at the time the U.S. Final Prospectus was issued or at the Closing Time, the U.S. Final Prospectus (except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial and accounting or statistical data derived therefrom included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom or from those documents incorporated by reference, in each case as to which such counsel expresses no such belief) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The proceeds of the Offering received by the Corporation will be used for future acquisitions, working capital, repayment of indebtedness and general corporate purposes as described in and contemplated by the final prospectus supplement, dated June 10, 2021 (collectively, with the base shelf prospectus of the Corporation dated May 6, 2021, the “Final Prospectus”), filed by the Corporation with the securities commissions or securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada (other than Quebec) for the purposes of the Offering. The undersigned understands that it is a condition of the completion of the Offering that certain individuals enter into an agreement in the form of this letter.

In consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, subject to closing of the Offering on June 15, 2021 or such other date as the Corporation and the Underwriters may agree upon in writing (the “Closing Date”), but in any event not be later than the date that is 42 days from the filing of the Final Prospectus, the undersigned hereby agrees that, during the period beginning on the date of this letter and ending on the day that is 90 days after the Closing Date, the undersigned will not, and will ensure that any of its associates (within the meaning of such term under the Securities Act (Ontario)) will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Underwriters (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld):

(a)sell, offer, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise lend, transfer, assign or dispose of (including, without limitation, by making any short sale, engaging in any hedging, monetization or derivative transaction or entering into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of securities of the Corporation or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or otherwise exercisable into common shares of the Corporation (“Common Shares”) or other securities of the Corporation, whether or not cash settled), any securities of the Corporation or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or otherwise exercisable into Common Shares or other securities of the Corporation;
(b)secure or pledge any securities of the Corporation or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or otherwise exercisable into Common Shares or other securities of the Corporation; or

(c)agree to or announce any intention to do any of the foregoing things,

other than (i) pursuant to a take-over bid or any similar transaction made generally to all shareholders of the Corporation, a formal issuer bid made in accordance with Canadian securities laws, or a court-approved arrangement made to all holders of Common Shares; and (ii) by way of pledge or security interest, provided that the pledgee or beneficiary of the security interest agrees in writing with the Underwriters to be bound by this agreement for the remainder of its term.

The foregoing restrictions will not apply to any transfers of Common Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares acquired on the secondary market after the completion of the Offering.

This agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein. The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this agreement. This agreement is irrevocable and will be binding on the undersigned and its successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns, and will enure to the benefit of the Underwriters and their legal representatives, successors and assigns.

This agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when delivered, either in original or facsimile form, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same document.
