shall transfer, convey, assign and deliver unto Holdco, for subsequent transfer to Acquisition Sub, all of Skynet’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Skynet Hedge Agreements.

 SECTION 1.2. Payment by PSP; Treatment. 
 (a) At the Closing, Red Isle shall pay to Holdco, for subsequent transfer to Acquisition Sub, C$55,163,172 (the “PSP Hedge Amount”) in
cash, representing the economic value of the PSP Hedge Agreements. 
 (b) The payment by PSP of the PSP Hedge Amount as provided in
Section 1.2(a) hereof shall be made in addition to the amounts otherwise due under the PSP Subscription Agreement and without regard to the “PSP Cap” under the Ancillary Agreement, and the PSP Hedge Amount shall not be taken into
consideration for the purpose of (i) determining whether the PSP Cap is met or exceeded or (ii) calculating or determining the PSP Common Equity Amount or the Required Equity Contribution Amount (as defined in the Alternative
Subscription Agreement). 
 SECTION 1.3. Consideration. In consideration for
the transfer and payment (as applicable) set forth in Sections 1.1 and 1.2 hereof, Holdco shall (a) issue to Skynet, on the date of the transfer to Holdco of Skynet’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Skynet Hedge
Agreements, non-voting participating preferred shares of Holdco in such number as shall equal the value of (i) the Skynet Hedge Agreements on such date, less (ii) the amount of any positive Tranche Differential with respect to any
Tranche that is the subject of any such Skynet Hedge Agreement, at an issue price of C$10.00 per share, and (b) issue to PSP, at the Closing (upon payment to Holdco of the PSP Hedge Amount), such number of voting participating preferred shares
and common shares of Holdco as shall equal the number of shares issued to Skynet under this Section 1.3, divided by 64 and multiplied by 36. For greater certainty, as a result of the issuances of shares of Holdco under this Agreement and under
the Transaction Documents: (A) Parent will own, directly or indirectly, shares of Holdco representing 64% of the economic equity interests and 331/3% of the voting equity interests of Holdco; and (B) PSP will own, directly or indirectly, shares of Holdco representing 36% of the economic
equity interests and 662/3% of the non-director voting equity
interests of Holdco. 
 SECTION 2. SUBSCRIPTION CONSIDERATION. 
 SECTION 2.1. Subscription Consideration; Transaction Expenses. On the Closing Date, Red Isle shall pay a portion of the consideration payable by
it for Equity Shares pursuant to the PSP Subscription Agreement in the form of Marketable Securities having an aggregate fair market value on the Closing Date equal to the “Purchase Price” of $25,472,000 under the Asset Purchase Agreement,
it being understood that such Purchase Price amount denominated in United States dollars shall be translated into Canadian dollars for the purposes of the PSP Subscription Agreement at the exchange rate at which PSP or Red Isle, as the case may be,
converts Canadian dollars into United States dollars in order to purchase such Marketable Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, any costs or expenses that either PSP or Red Isle incurs in connection with the acquisition or transfer of such
Marketable Securities are Transaction Expenses (as defined in the Ancillary Agreement) with respect to which PSP or Red Isle, as the case may be, shall be entitled to reimbursement pursuant to the Ancillary Agreement.

 SECTION 3. BASIS SWAP; AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND CLARIFICATION OF ASSET TRANSFER AGREEMENT.

 SECTION 3.1. Basis Swap. On or before October [29], 2007, Skynet (on behalf of Parent) shall transfer, convey, assign and deliver
unto Holdco, for subsequent transfer to Acquisition Sub, all of Skynet’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Basis Swap (which transfer shall be deemed to satisfy Parent’s obligations under Section 3.6(b) of the Ancillary
Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, including, without limitation, the Asset Transfer Agreement, the parties agree that: (a) the Basis Swap shall form part of the “Transferred
Property” under the Asset Transfer Agreement for which the consideration therefor is being paid under Article II thereof; and (b) “Interim Taxes” under the Asset Transfer Agreement shall include any and all Taxes payable by
Skynet or any of its Affiliates in respect of taxable income realized thereby in connection with such transfer of the Basis Swap as part of the Transferred Property (“Basis Swap Taxes”), provided that, for the purposes of
Section 2.6 of the Asset Transfer Agreement, the portion of the Interim Taxes that constitutes Basis Swap Taxes shall be expressed in Canadian dollars at the Closing Date Exchange Rate. 
 SECTION 3.2. Section 1.1; Definition of Basis Swap. Section 1.1 of the Asset Transfer Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the
definition of “Basis Swap” contained therein in its entirety and inserting the following in lieu thereof:

Financing;” 
 SECTION 3.3. Sections 2.6(h) and 2.6(i) of the Asset Transfer Agreement. Sections 2.6(h) and 2.6(i) of the
Asset Transfer Agreement are hereby amended by deleting them in their entirety and inserting the following in lieu thereof: 
 “(h) “Tranche Differential” means for each Tranche, the share of such Tranche that is hedged by Parent, multiplied by the Tranche Differential Rate. 
 (i) “Tranche Differential Rate” means, (a) in respect of the Note Tranche, the difference between the exchange rate
obtained by Parent and the exchange rate obtained by PSP and (b) in respect of the Remaining Term Loan B Tranche, the difference between the exchange rate obtained by Parent and the exchange rate at which Canadian dollars are purchased with
respect to the remaining $282,566,500 of the Remaining Term Loan B Tranche at the Telesat Closing (which purchase may be made pursuant to a hedge contract entered into by Holdco or one of its subsidiaries). The Tranche Differential Rate will be
(i) positive, if the exchange rate obtained by Parent in respect of the applicable Tranche is greater than the PSP exchange rate (in the case of the Note Tranche) or the actual exchange rate (in the case of the Remaining Term Loan B Tranche),
(ii) negative, if the exchange rate obtained by Parent in respect of the applicable Tranche is less than the PSP exchange rate (in the case of the Note Tranche) or the actual exchange rate (in the case of the Remaining Term Loan B Tranche), or
(iii) zero, if the exchange rate obtained by Parent in respect of the applicable Tranche is the same as the PSP exchange rate (in the case of the Note Tranche) or the actual exchange rate (in the case of the Remaining Term Loan B
Tranche).”

$316,000,000, respectively, of the $910,000,000 of unsecured debt tranche under the Financing (the “Note Tranche”); and 
 (ii) Parent has hedged $103,433,500 of the $386,000,000 of original term loan B-1 under the Financing that is not hedged by the Basis Swap (the “Remaining Term Loan B Tranche”). 
 (b) Each of the Note Tranche and the Remaining Term Loan Tranche is a Tranche for purposes of calculating the Total Hedging Differential
pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof. For purposes of this Section 4.20, hedges procured by an Affiliate of Parent shall be deemed to be hedges procured by Parent.” 
 SECTION 3.5. Exhibit D to Asset Transfer Agreement. Exhibit D to the Asset Transfer Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its
entirety and inserting in lieu thereof Exhibit A to this Agreement.
