For purposes of the Restricted Unit Award, the Participant’s termination date shall occur (regardless of the reason for such termination, and whether or not found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed, or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any), except as otherwise required by applicable legislation, effective as of the date that is the earlier of: (i) the termination of the Participant’s employment relationship; (ii) the date the Participant receives written notice of termination; or (iii) the date the Participant is no longer actively employed regardless of any notice period or period of pay in lieu of such notice mandated under applicable laws (including, but not limited to statutory law, regulatory law and/or common law).

Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information.


If the Participant is a Canadian resident, the Participant is required to report his or her foreign specified property on Form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) if the total cost of the Participant’s specified foreign property exceeds CAD100,000 at any time in the year.  Foreign specified property includes payments received under the Plan and may include rights to receive such payment (e.g., the Restricted Unit Award).  Thus, Restricted Unit Awards must be reported – generally at a nil cost – if the CAD100,000 cost threshold is exceeded because other foreign specified property is held by the Participant.  The Form T1135 generally must be filed by April 30 of the following year.  The Participant should consult his or her personal tax advisor to ensure compliance with applicable reporting obligations.
