 The amounts payable pursuant to
Section 4.01, 4.02 and 4.04 shall be payable by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such bank account or accounts as Loral shall designate by written notice to Telesat, subject, in the case of amounts payable pursuant to
Section 4.01, to the provisions of Section 4.04. Any such direction shall remain in effect until such time as Loral provides to Telesat a change of direction. Loral shall separately bill, in respect of advice and services provided pursuant
to Section 4.01 and 4.02, those portions of the advice and services provided in Canada in respect of each billing period and service (“Canadian Services”). Telesat shall deduct and withhold from any payment made to Loral
pursuant to Section 4.01, 4.02 and 4.04 such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld by applicable law in respect of the provision of Canadian Services, or in respect of interest payable pursuant to Section 4.04. If Telesat
determines that it is required by law to withhold any amounts in respect of services not designated by Loral as being provided in Canada, or that there is a substantial risk of assessment or reassessment of taxes related to any such payment to Loral
if no amount is withheld, it shall give notice of such determination to Loral not less than 20 days before the date of the next quarterly payment to be made pursuant to Section 4.01. In such event, Loral and Telesat shall attempt to agree in
good faith whether any additional amount shall be withheld by Telesat from payments to be made to Loral under Section 4.01 and/or Section 4.02. If Telesat and Loral are unable to agree, then no later than 15 days prior to the due date of
such payment such dispute or difference shall be referred for final determination to a mutually agreed independent counsel (“Independent Counsel”) . The Independent Counsel shall be instructed to render a written opinion within 7
days of his or her appointment. The Independent Counsel’s decision shall be final and binding on all parties. The cost and fees of the Independent Counsel shall be borne and paid equally by Telesat and Loral. Notwithstanding the foregoing in
the event the Independent Counsel shall not render his or her written opinion 2 days prior to such payment due date, Telesat shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from such payment any amount it determines in good faith and acting reasonably, and
taking into account the deliberations to date, is required to be deducted and withheld by applicable law (and with respect to any future payments until such time as such written opinion is delivered, following which Telesat shall act in accordance
with such opinion, as applicable), and neither Telesat nor its Affiliates or officers shall be liable for any excess taxes deducted or withheld in respect of any payment to Loral in such circumstances, and, in the event of over-withholding,
Loral’s sole recourse shall be to apply for a refund from the appropriate governmental authority. Loral shall indemnify and save harmless Telesat from any amounts which may become payable by Telesat as a result of its failure to deduct and
withhold in respect of any advice or services provided by Loral that is not separately billed by Loral as Canadian Services, including without limitation, any penalty, interest or other amounts, and the cost of counsel incurred in respect of any
demand for payment related thereto. To the extent amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, the withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to Loral in respect of the
payment from which such deduction and withholding was made.

terms of the Acquisition Debt (as defined in the terms of the Senior Preferred Shares of Telesat Holdings Inc. as they exist on the date hereof) (the “Acquisition Financing”) permit the payment of the fees set out in

credit agreement originally forming part of the Acquisition Debt (each such provision a “basket provision”; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, a basket provision does not include a covenant that requires compliance with a
financial ratio other than with respect to the financial ratios in the Applicable Amount)), Telesat shall pay such fees in cash. Otherwise, unless the Directors determine to utilize such basket provision in order to pay all or part of such fee in
cash, Telesat shall not be required to pay such fees in cash but shall issue to Loral, on each payment date provided in Section 4.01, a promissory note of Telesat for the amount of such payment. Such promissory notes shall be payable in full,
or to the extent then permitted, 10 days after (i) a determination being made, by way of the certification provided in this Section 4.04, that such promissory notes, or a portion of such promissory notes, may be paid pursuant to the terms
of the Acquisition Financing without recourse to a basket provision, or (ii) if the Directors subsequently determine to utilize such basket provision to pay some or all of such promissory notes, that such determination has been made by the
Directors, or if not then paid in full, all such promissory notes shall be paid in full on October 31, 2018. Any such payment shall be made in the manner provided in Section 4.03 without necessity of delivery to Telesat of any promissory
notes for cancellation. Telesat shall provide Loral with a quarterly certificate to be delivered by not later than 60 days after each fiscal quarter-end of Telesat certifying whether any such promissory notes, or a portion thereof, may be paid
pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Financing without recourse to a basket provision or whether the Directors shall have determined to pay any promissory notes by utilizing and reducing any such basket provision, and shall specify in such
certificate the amount of such promissory notes that may then be paid, and shall provide to Loral details in support of such certificate. Interest on all such promissory notes shall be payable on the outstanding principal balance of each promissory
note at the rate of 7% per annum, compounded quarterly, from the date of issue of any such promissory note to the date of payment thereof. Promissory notes, including all accrued interest thereon, shall be repaid in order of issuance. Loral

against all losses, claims, suits, proceedings, costs, damages, liabilities and judgments (including reasonable attorney’s fees) sustained by the Indemnified Party related to or arising out of this Agreement, provided that the Indemnified Party

	7.03	Right to Contest and Defend 

 (1) Telesat is
entitled, at its cost and expense, to contest and defend by all appropriate legal proceedings any Claim; provided, however, that notice of the intention so to contest shall be delivered by Telesat to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time in
light of the circumstances then existing, but in no event more than 30 days after receipt of notice of the Claim from the Indemnified Party. Any such contest may be conducted in the name and on behalf of Telesat or the Indemnified Party, as may be
appropriate. Such contest shall be conducted by counsel chosen by Telesat, but the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in such proceedings and to be represented by counsel of its choosing at its cost and expense unless the
interests of Indemnified Parties and Telesat differ in the Claim, in which case, Telesat shall also pay all reasonable cost and expense of counsel of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party joins in any such contest, Telesat shall have full
authority to determine all action to be taken with respect thereto. 
 (2) If after such opportunity, Telesat does not elect to contest any
such Claim, subject to paragraph (5) below, Telesat shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to abandon the contesting of the Claim or to settle or
compromise the Claim, and Telesat shall be bound by all actions of the Indemnified Party with respect to such contest and/or Claim. 
 (3) At
any time after the commencement of defence of any Claim by Telesat, Telesat shall notify the Indemnified Party in writing promptly upon the abandonment of such contest or failure of Telesat (in which event the provisions of paragraph (2) above
shall be applicable) or of the payment, compromise or settlement by Telesat of the Claim. 
 (4) If requested by Telesat, the Indemnified
Party will cooperate with Telesat and its counsel in contesting any Claim which Telesat elects to contest or, if appropriate and not inconsistent with the reasonable commercial interests of the Indemnified Party, in making any counterclaim against
the person asserting the Claim, or any cross-complaint against any Person and will take such other action as reasonably may be requested by Telesat to reduce or eliminate any loss or expense for which Telesat would have responsibility, but Telesat
will reimburse the Indemnified Party for any and all reasonable expenses incurred by it in so cooperating or acting at the request of Telesat. 
 (5) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Telesat nor any Indemnified Party shall pay, compromise or settle any Claim or seek or agree to any equitable relief without the consent of the other party, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld. Telesat shall provide reasonable information to the Indemnified Party on an ongoing basis regarding the contest and the Claim and any proposed payment, compromise or settlement of the Claim and the basis for any equitable
relief sought. Unless Telesat shall have abandoned the contesting of a Claim, the Indemnified Party agrees to afford Telesat and its counsel the opportunity to be present at, and to participate in, conferences with all persons, including Regulatory
Authorities, asserting such Claim against the Indemnified Party or conferences with representatives of or counsel for such persons.
