6.01 Covenant Regarding Non-Solicitation
  (a)   Glamis shall not, directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, employee, representative, advisor or agent of Glamis or any of the Glamis Subsidiaries, or otherwise:
  (i)   make, solicit, initiate, facilitate, entertain, encourage or promote (including by way of furnishing information, permitting any visit to facilities or properties of, or any Glamis Subsidiary or any Glamis Significant Interest Companies or entering into any form of agreement, arrangement or understanding) any inquiries or proposals regarding, constituting or that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal;
 
  (ii)   participate, directly or indirectly, in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any information or otherwise co-operate with, respond to, assist or participate in, any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal;

  (iv)   make, or propose publicly to make a Change in Glamis Recommendation;
 
  (v)   accept, enter into, or propose publicly to accept or enter into, any agreement, understanding or arrangement related to any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal;
 
  (vi)   make any public announcement or take any other action inconsistent with, or that could


 

44

      reasonably be likely to be regarded as detracting from, the recommendation of the directors of Glamis to approve the transactions contemplated herein,
      provided, however, that, notwithstanding the preceding part of this subsection 6.01(a), but subject to the following provisions of Article 6 of this Agreement, the directors of Glamis and on the direction of any of the directors of Glamis, any officer, employee, representative, agent or advisor of Glamis may, prior to the approval of the Arrangement by Glamis Shareholders, consider or negotiate any unsolicited Acquisition Proposal that may constitute a Superior Proposal, and the directors of Glamis may make a Change in Glamis Recommendation in respect of a Superior Proposal, or approve or recommend to the Glamis Shareholders or enter into an agreement in respect of a Superior Proposal in accordance with the provisions of the following subsections of this Article 6 but in each case only if the Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of this Agreement by Glamis and if the directors of Glamis determine in good faith after consulting with outside counsel (which may include written opinions or advice) that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of such directors under applicable Law.
 
  (b)   Glamis shall, and shall cause the officers, directors, employees, consultants, representatives and agents of Glamis and its subsidiaries to, immediately terminate and cease any discussions or negotiations with any parties (other than Goldcorp) with respect to any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to constitute, an Acquisition Proposal. Glamis agrees not to release any third party from any confidentiality agreement relating to a potential Acquisition Proposal to which such third party is a party. Glamis further agrees not to release any third party from any standstill agreement or provision to which such third party is a party. Glamis shall immediately request the return or destruction of all information provided to any third party that, at any time since December 31, 2004, has entered into a confidentiality agreement with Glamis relating to a potential Acquisition Proposal to the extent that such information has not previously been returned or destroyed, and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such requests are honoured.
 
  (c)   Promptly and, in any event, within 24 hours of the receipt by any director or officer of Glamis of any Acquisition Proposal, or any amendment to the foregoing, or any request for non-public information relating to Glamis, any of the Glamis Subsidiaries or any of the Glamis Significant Interest Companies in connection with any potential Acquisition Proposal or for access to the properties, books or records of Glamis or any of the Glamis Subsidiaries or any of the Glamis Significant Interest Companies by any person that informs Glamis, any of the Glamis Subsidiaries that it is considering making, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal, Glamis shall notify Goldcorp thereof, at first orally and then, as soon as possible thereafter, in writing. Such written notice shall include the identity of the person(s) making such proposal and all material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal and provide such other details of the Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or contact as Goldcorp may reasonably request.
 
  (d)   If Glamis receives a request for material non-public information from a person who is considering making or has made a written Acquisition Proposal (the existence and content of which have been disclosed to Goldcorp), and the directors of Glamis determine that such proposal could, if consummated in accordance with its terms, reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal or does constitute a Superior Proposal and Glamis is permitted, subject to and as contemplated under this section 6.01 then, and only in such case, the directors of Glamis may, subject to the execution of a confidentiality agreement on terms that are not more favourable to the person making or considering making the Acquisition Proposal than those set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement and which includes a standstill provision that restricts such person from acquiring, or publicly announcing an intention to acquire, any securities or assets of Glamis (other than pursuant to a Superior Proposal) for a period not less than one year from the date of such agreement, provide such person with access to information regarding Glamis; provided, however, that Glamis sends a copy of any such confidentiality agreement to Goldcorp immediately upon the execution thereof and Goldcorp is provided with a list of or a copy of the information, if any, provided to


 

45

      such person that was not previously provided to Goldcorp and Goldcorp is immediately provided with access to similar information.
 
  (e)   Glamis shall ensure that its officers, directors, consultants and employees and any financial advisors or other advisors or representatives retained by Glamis are aware of the provisions of this section 6.01, and Glamis shall be responsible for any breach of this section 6.01 by its financial advisors or other advisors or representatives.
6.02 Notice of Superior Proposal Determination
  (a)   Glamis and the directors of Glamis shall not make a Change of Glamis Recommendation or accept, approve, recommend or enter into any agreement in respect of an Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement and a standstill agreement contemplated by subsection 6.01(d) hereof) on the basis that it would constitute a Superior Proposal, unless (i) Glamis has complied with its obligations under section 6.01 and the other provisions of this Article 6, (ii) such Superior Proposal does not provide for the payment of any break, termination or other fees or expenses to the other party in the event that Glamis completes the Arrangement or any similar other transaction with Goldcorp or any of its affiliates agreed prior to any termination of this Agreement, (iii) it has provided Goldcorp with the information about such Acquisition Proposal as required under subsection 6.01(c) that the directors of Glamis have determined would be a Superior Proposal pursuant to subsection 6.01(a) hereof, and (iv) five (5) Business Days shall have elapsed from the later of the date Goldcorp received notice of the determination of the directors of Glamis to accept, approve, recommend or enter into an agreement in respect of such Superior Proposal and the date Goldcorp received the documents pursuant to subsection 6.01(c) hereof.
 
  (b)   During the five Business Days referred to in subsection 6.02(a) hereof, Goldcorp shall have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to offer in writing to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement. The directors of Glamis shall review any offer by Goldcorp to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement in order to determine in good faith, as of the later of the dates referred to in subsection 6.02(a)(iv) hereof, whether the offer of Goldcorp upon acceptance by Glamis would result in the Acquisition Proposal not being a Superior Proposal. If the directors of Glamis so determine, Glamis shall enter into an amended agreement with Goldcorp reflecting the amended proposal of Goldcorp and will promptly reaffirm its recommendation of the Arrangement as amended.
 
  (c)   Glamis acknowledges and agrees that each successive modification of any Acquisition Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of the requirement under subsection 6.02(a)(iv) hereof and shall initiate an additional five Business Day period.
 
  (d)   If the Proxy Circular has been sent to Glamis Shareholders prior to the expiry of the five Business Day period set forth in subsection 6.02(a) and, during such period, Goldcorp requests in writing that the Glamis Meeting proceed, unless otherwise ordered by the Court, Glamis shall continue to take all reasonable steps necessary to hold the Glamis Meeting and to cause the Arrangement to be voted on at the Glamis Meeting.
 
  (e)   Where at any time before the Glamis Meeting, Glamis has provided Goldcorp with a notice under subsection 6.01(c), an Acquisition Proposal has been publicly disclosed or announced, and the five (5) Business Day period under subsection 6.02(a) has not elapsed, then, subject to applicable Laws, at Goldcorp’s request, Glamis will postpone or adjourn the Glamis Meeting at the Glamis Meeting (but not beforehand without Goldcorp’s consent) to a date acceptable to Goldcorp, acting reasonably, which shall not be later than twenty (20) days after the scheduled date of the Glamis Meeting and shall, in the event that Goldcorp and Glamis amend the terms of this Agreement pursuant to subsection 6.02(b), ensure that the details of such amended Agreement are


 

46

      communicated to the Glamis Shareholders prior to the resumption of the adjourned Glamis Meeting.

Glamis hereby irrevocably waives any right it may have to raise as a defence that any such liquidated damages are excessive or punitive. Upon receipt of payment of the Glamis Termination Payment by Goldcorp, Goldcorp shall have no further claim against Glamis in respect of the failure to complete the Arrangement, provided that nothing herein shall preclude Goldcorp from seeking injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach by Glamis of any of its obligations hereunder or otherwise to obtain specific performance without the necessity of posting bond or security in connection therewith.

  (b)   each Glamis Common Share held by a Dissenting Shareholder shall be deemed to be transferred by the holder thereof, without any further act or formality on its part, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, to Goldcorp and Goldcorp shall thereupon be obliged to pay the amount therefor determined and payable in accordance with Article 4 hereof, and the name of such holder shall be removed from the central securities register as holders of Glamis Common Shares and Goldcorp shall be recorded as the registered holder of the Glamis Common Shares so transferred and shall be deemed to be the legal owner of such Glamis Common Shares; and
 
  (c)   each Glamis Option outstanding immediately before the Effective Time, whether or not vested, shall be exchanged for an option (a “Converted Goldcorp Option”) to acquire (on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Glamis Option immediately before the Effective Time under the relevant Glamis Share Option Plan under which it was issued and the agreement evidencing the grant thereof and, in particular, but without limitation, if the Glamis Option is deemed to vest at the Effective Time in accordance with the Glamis Share Option Plan or such agreement, then the Converted Goldcorp Option shall be fully vested) the number (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of Goldcorp Common Shares equal to the product of: (A) the number of Glamis Common Shares subject to such Glamis Option immediately before the Effective Time and (B) the Share Exchange Ratio.

  (a)   Upon surrender to the Depositary for cancellation of a certificate that immediately before the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Glamis Common Shares that were exchanged for Goldcorp Common Shares in accordance with section 3.01 hereof, together with such other documents and instruments as would have been required to effect the transfer of the Glamis Common Shares formerly represented by such certificate under the BCBCA and the articles of Glamis and such additional documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Depositary shall deliver to such holder following the Effective Time, a certificate representing the Goldcorp Common Shares that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with section 3.01 hereof and a cheque for the cash consideration to which such holder is entitled.
 
  (b)   After the Effective Time and until surrendered for cancellation as contemplated by subsection 5.01(a) hereof, each certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more Glamis Common Shares shall be deemed at all times to represent only the right to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing the Goldcorp Common Shares and the cash consideration that the holder of such certificate is entitled to receive in accordance with section 3.01 hereof.
Section 5.02 Lost Certificates
          In the event any certificate, that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Glamis Common Shares that were exchanged for Goldcorp Common Shares and the cash consideration in accordance with section 3.01 hereof, shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a certificate representing the Goldcorp Common Shares and a cheque in the amount of the cash consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with section 3.01 hereof. When authorizing such delivery of a certificate representing the Goldcorp Common Shares and the cash consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the holder to whom a certificate representing such Goldcorp Common Shares and a cheque in the amount of the cash consideration is to be delivered shall, as a condition precedent to the delivery of such Goldcorp Common Shares and cheque, give a bond satisfactory to Goldcorp and the Depositary in such amount as Goldcorp and the Depositary may direct, or otherwise indemnify Goldcorp and the Depositary in a manner satisfactory to Goldcorp and the Depositary, against any claim that may be made against Goldcorp or the Depositary with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed and shall otherwise take such actions as may be required by the articles of Glamis.
Section 5.03 Distributions with Respect to Unsurrendered Certificates
          No dividend or other distribution declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Goldcorp Common Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented outstanding Glamis Common Shares unless and until the holder of such certificate shall have complied with the provisions of section 5.01 or


 

A-7

section 5.02 hereof. Subject to applicable law and to section 5.04 hereof, at the time of such compliance, there shall, in addition to the delivery of a certificate representing the Goldcorp Common Shares and a cheque for the cash consideration to which such holder is thereby entitled, be delivered to such holder, without interest, the amount of the dividend or other distribution with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such Goldcorp Common Shares.
Section 5.04 Withholding Rights
          Goldcorp and the Depositary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from all dividends or other distributions otherwise payable to any Former Glamis Shareholder such amounts as Goldcorp or the Depositary is required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Tax Act, the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any provision of any applicable federal, provincial, state, local or foreign tax law or treaty, in each case, as amended. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the Former Glamis Shareholder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority.
Section 5.05 Limitation and Proscription
          To the extent that a Former Glamis Shareholder shall not have complied with the provisions of section 5.01 or section 5.02 hereof on or before the date that is six years after the Effective Date (the “final proscription date”), then the Goldcorp Common Shares that such Former Glamis Shareholder was entitled to receive shall be automatically cancelled without any repayment of capital in respect thereof and the certificates representing such Goldcorp Common Shares, together with the cash consideration to which such Former Glamis Shareholder was entitled, shall be delivered to Goldcorp by the Depositary and the share certificates shall be cancelled by Goldcorp, and the interest of the Former Glamis Shareholder in such Goldcorp Common Shares and the cash consideration to which it was entitled shall be terminated as of such final proscription date.
