In any such event, ExchangeCo hereby agrees with Trustee and in favour of the Beneficiary to immediately notify Trustee of the prohibition against ExchangeCo redeeming all of the Retracted Shares and to promptly to forward or cause to be forwarded to Trustee all relevant materials delivered by the Beneficiary to ExchangeCo or to the transfer agent of the Exchangeable Shares (including without limitation, a copy of the retraction request delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions) in connection with such proposed redemption of the Retracted Shares and Trustee will thereupon exercise the Exchange Right with respect to the Retracted Shares that ExchangeCo is not permitted to redeem and will require Parent to purchase such shares in accordance with the provisions of this Article 5.




10.8

Stamp or Other Transfer Taxes




Upon any sale of Exchangeable Shares to Parent pursuant to the Exchange Right or the Automatic Exchange Rights, the share certificate or certificates representing Parent Common Shares to be delivered in connection with the payment of the total purchase price therefor shall be issued in the name of the Beneficiary of the Exchangeable Shares so sold or in such names as such Beneficiary may otherwise direct in writing without charge to the holder of the Exchangeable Shares so sold; provided, however, that such Beneficiary (a) shall pay (and none of Parent, ExchangeCo or Trustee shall be required to pay) any documentary, stamp, transfer or other taxes that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of such shares to a Person other than such Beneficiary or (b) shall have evidenced to the satisfaction of Trustee, Parent and ExchangeCo that such taxes, if any, have been paid.

Notice of Insolvency Event




As soon as practicable following the occurrence of an Insolvency Event or any event that with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would be an Insolvency Event, ExchangeCo and Parent shall give written notice thereof to Trustee.

Parent will in good faith expeditiously take all such reasonable actions and do all such reasonable things as are necessary or desirable to cause all Parent Common Shares to be delivered pursuant to the Exchange Right or the Automatic Exchange Rights to be listed, quoted or posted for trading on all stock exchanges and quotation systems on which outstanding Parent Common Shares have been listed by Parent and remain listed and are quoted or posted for trading at such time.

Parent covenants that it shall not take any action relating to a voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of ExchangeCo or its successors, prior to the Redemption Date (as defined in the Exchangeable Share Provisions) unless prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up Parent shall have taken such actions to ensure that it is possible for holders of Exchangeable Shares to extend through to the Redemption Date (subject to the continuing effect of other provisions of this Agreement which may permit the redemption or other termination of the Exchangeable Shares prior to the Redemption Date) the deferral of any gain incurred by such holders that would otherwise have been recognized at the  closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement.








11







10.13

Automatic Exchange on Liquidation of Parent




(a)

Parent will give Trustee notice of each of the following events at the time set forth below:




(i)

in the event of any determination by the Board of Directors of Parent to institute voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up proceedings with respect to Parent or to effect any other distribution of assets of Parent among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, at least 60 days prior to the proposed effective date of such liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or other distribution; and

(ii)

as soon as practicable following the earlier of (A) receipt by Parent of notice of, and (B) Parent otherwise becoming aware of, any threatened or instituted claim, suit, petition or other proceedings with respect to the involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Parent or to effect any other distribution of assets of Parent among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, in each case where Parent has failed to contest in good faith any such proceeding commenced in respect of Parent within 30 days of becoming aware thereof.




(b)

As soon as practicable following receipt by Trustee from Parent of notice of any event (a “Liquidation Event”) contemplated by Section 5.13(a)(i) or 5.13(a)(ii) above, Trustee will give notice thereof to the Beneficiaries. Such notice shall include a brief description of the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Parent Common Shares provided for in Section 5.13(c).




(c)

In order that the Beneficiaries will be able to participate on a pro rata basis with the holders of Parent Common Shares in the distribution of assets of Parent in connection with a Liquidation Event, on the fifth Business Day prior to the effective date (the “Liquidation Event Effective Date”) of a Liquidation Event all of the then outstanding Exchangeable Shares shall be automatically exchanged for Parent Common Shares. To effect such automatic exchange, Parent shall purchase on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date each Exchangeable Share then outstanding and held by Beneficiaries, and each Beneficiary shall sell the Exchangeable Shares held by it at such time, for a total purchase price per share equal to (a) the Current Market Price of a Parent Common Share on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, which shall be satisfied in full by Parent issuing to the Beneficiary one Parent Common Share, and (b) to the extent not paid by ExchangeCo, an additional amount equivalent to the full amount of all declared and unpaid dividends on each such Exchangeable Share held by such holder on any dividend record date which occurred prior to the date of the exchange. In connection with such automatic exchange, Parent will provide to Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the calculation of the purchase price for each Exchangeable Share.




(d)

On the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, the closing of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated by the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Parent Common Shares shall be deemed to have occurred, and each Beneficiary shall be deemed to have transferred to Parent all of the Beneficiary’s right, title and interest in and to such Beneficiary’s Exchangeable Shares and the related interest in the Trust Estate and shall cease to be a holder of such Exchangeable Shares and Parent shall issue to the Beneficiary the Parent Common Shares issuable upon the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Parent Common Shares and on the applicable payment date shall deliver to Trustee for delivery to the Beneficiary a cheque for the balance, if any, of the total purchase price for such Exchangeable Shares without interest but less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 5.14. Concurrently with such Beneficiary ceasing to be a holder of Exchangeable Shares, the Beneficiary shall be considered and deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the Parent Common Shares issued pursuant to the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Parent Common Shares and the certificates held by the Beneficiary previously representing the Exchangeable Shares exchanged by the Beneficiary with Parent pursuant to such automatic exchange shall thereafter be deemed to represent Parent Common Shares issued to the Beneficiary by Parent pursuant to such automatic exchange. Upon the request of a Beneficiary and the surrender by the Beneficiary of Exchangeable Share certificates deemed to represent Parent Common Shares, duly endorsed in blank and accompanied by such instruments of transfer as Parent may reasonably require, Parent shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Beneficiary certificates representing Parent Common Shares of which the Beneficiary is the holder.








12







10.14

Withholding Rights




Parent, ExchangeCo and Trustee shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement to any holder of Exchangeable Shares or Parent Common Shares such amounts as Parent, ExchangeCo or Trustee is required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Income Tax Act (Canada), the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any provision of provincial, state, local or foreign tax law, in each case as amended or succeeded. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the holder of the shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. To the extent that the amount so required or permitted to be deducted or withheld from any payment to a holder exceeds the cash portion of the consideration otherwise payable to the holder, Parent, ExchangeCo and Trustee are hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of such portion of the consideration as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to Parent, ExchangeCo or Trustee, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and Parent, ExchangeCo or Trustee shall notify the holder thereof and remit to such holder any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale. Prior to making any distribution to holders of Exchangeable Shares or Parent Common Shares, Parent or ExchangeCo, as the case may be, shall ensure that Trustee has access to sufficient funds (by directly providing, if necessary, such funds to Trustee) to enable Trustee to comply with any applicable withholding taxes in connection with such consideration. In carrying out its duties under this Section 5.14, Trustee may obtain the advice of and assistance from such experts as Trustee may reasonably consider necessary or advisable. If requested by Trustee, Parent shall retain such experts for providing such advice or assistance to Trustee.

Parent and ExchangeCo jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless Trustee and each of its directors, officers and agents appointed and acting in accordance with this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), as applicable, against all claims, losses, damages, reasonable costs, penalties, fines and reasonable expenses (including reasonable expenses of Trustee’s legal counsel) which, without fraud, negligence, recklessness, wilful misconduct or bad faith on the part of such Indemnified Party, may be paid, incurred or suffered by the Indemnified Party by reason or as a result of Trustee’s acceptance or administration of the Trust, its compliance with its duties set forth in this Agreement, or any written or oral instruction delivered to Trustee by Parent or ExchangeCo pursuant hereto.




In no case shall Parent or ExchangeCo be liable under this indemnity for any claim against any of the Indemnified Parties unless Parent and ExchangeCo shall be notified by Trustee of the written assertion of a claim or of any action commenced against the Indemnified Parties, promptly after any of the Indemnified Parties shall have received any such written assertion of a claim or shall have been served with a summons or other first legal process giving information as to the nature and basis of the claim. Subject to (ii) below, Parent and ExchangeCo shall be entitled to participate at their own expense in the defence and, if Parent and ExchangeCo so elect at any time after receipt of such notice, either of them may assume the defence of any suit brought to enforce any such claim. Trustee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such suit and participate, in the defence thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of Trustee unless: (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized by Parent or ExchangeCo; or (ii) the named parties to any such suit include both Trustee and Parent or ExchangeCo and Trustee shall have been advised by counsel acceptable to Parent or ExchangeCo that there may be one or more legal defences available to Trustee that are different from or in addition to those available to Parent or ExchangeCo and that, in the judgment of such counsel, would present a conflict of interest were a joint representation to be undertaken (in which case Parent and ExchangeCo shall not have the right to assume the defence of such suit on behalf of Trustee but shall be liable to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for Trustee).




For certainty, the indemnity provided for in this Section 8.1 shall survive the termination of the Agreement.
