(2) All reasonable expenses, costs and charges incurred by or on behalf of the Bond Trustee in connection with this

 4 








 
be construed as limiting the rights or obligations of any of the Secured Creditors exercisable or to be prepared in accordance with and subject to the terms of any of the other Transaction
Documents. 
 Section 2.04 Accession of New Secured Creditors. 

As a condition precedent to any new Series or Tranche, as applicable, of Covered Bonds issued under the Program, any
Person which becomes a Secured Creditor pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement (each a “New Secured Creditor”) shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement and as evidence of such shall execute an instrument in a form
acceptable to the Bond Trustee. 
 Section 2.05 Declaration of Trust. 

The Bond Trustee hereby declares itself trustee of all the covenants, undertakings, charges, assignments, assignations
and other security interests made or given to be made or given under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents for itself and the other Secured Creditors in respect of the Obligations owed to each of them respectively upon
and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 Section 2.06 Attachment. 

(1) The Guarantor acknowledges that (i) value has been given, (ii) it has rights in the Collateral (other than
after-acquired Collateral) or the power to transfer rights in the Collateral (other than after-acquired Collateral) to the Bond Trustee, (iii) it has not agreed to postpone the time of attachment of the Security, and (iv) it has received a
duplicate original copy of this Agreement. 
 If the Guarantor acquires Collateral consisting of chattel paper,
instruments, securities, investment property or negotiable documents of title (collectively, “Negotiable Collateral”), the Guarantor will, immediately upon receipt, deliver to the Bond Trustee the Negotiable Collateral and shall,
(i) at the request of the Bond Trustee cause the transfer of the Negotiable Collateral to the Bond Trustee to be registered wherever, in the opinion of the Bond Trustee, such registration may be required or advisable, (ii) duly endorse the
same for transfer in blank by an effective endorsement or deliver a stock transfer power in respect thereof or as the Bond Trustee may direct, (iii) immediately deliver to the Bond Trustee any and all consents or other documents which may be
necessary to effect the transfer of the Negotiable Collateral to the Bond Trustee or any third party, and (iv) to the extent such Negotiable Collateral consists of investment property, cause the Bond Trustee to obtain control of such Negotiable
Collateral as determined pursuant to the PPSA. If and to the extent that the Negotiable Collateral is uncertificated, the Guarantor shall enter into such custodial, control or other agreements at the request of the Bond Trustee. 

(2) With respect to any Pledged Security that is a certificated security, until further notice by the Bond Trustee, any
certificate representing such Pledged Security may remain registered in the name of the Guarantor, provided that the Guarantor shall promptly at the request and pursuant to the direction of the Bond Trustee (in the Bond Trustee’s sole
discretion) either duly endorse such certificate in blank for transfer or execute a stock transfer power of attorney in 

  
 5 








 
respect thereof; in either case with signatures guaranteed and with all documentation being in form and substance satisfactory to the Bond Trustee and any transfer agent appointed from time to
time in respect of such Pledged Security. With respect to any Pledged Security that is an uncertificated security, the Guarantor shall enter into, and cause the issuer thereof to enter into, such custodial, control or other agreements as the Bond
Trustee requires, including the taking of any steps to provide the Bond Trustee with control over such Pledged Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time upon request by the Bond Trustee (in the Bond Trustee’s
sole discretion), the Guarantor shall cause any or all of the Pledged Securities to be issued and registered in the name of the Bond Trustee or its nominee, and the Bond Trustee is hereby appointed the irrevocable attorney (coupled with an interest)
of the Guarantor with full power of substitution to cause any or all of the Pledged Securities to be issued and registered in the name of the Bond Trustee or its nominee. 

(3) The Guarantor shall hold its security entitlements in a securities account that (i) is maintained in the name of
the Guarantor at an office of a securities intermediary located in Ontario, and (ii) together with all financial assets credited thereto and all related security entitlements, is subject to a Securities Account Control Agreement (as defined
below) among the Guarantor, the Bond Trustee and such securities intermediary (“Controlled Securities Account”). The Guarantor shall, at the request of the Bond Trustee (in the Bond Trustee’s sole discretion), (i) enter
into and cause any securities intermediary holding a securities account in respect of Pledged Securities to enter into a securities account control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Bond Trustee acting reasonably (a
“Securities Account Control Agreement”) in respect of all Pledged Securities constituting security entitlements of the Guarantor, and (ii) deliver each such Securities Account Control Agreement to the Bond Trustee. The
Guarantor shall cause all Pledged Securities underlying any security entitlements acquired by the Guarantor after the date hereof to be credited to a Controlled Securities Account. 

(4) The Guarantor will promptly inform the Bond Trustee in writing of the acquisition by the Guarantor of any personal
property which is not adequately described in this Agreement, and the Guarantor will execute and deliver, at its own expense, from time to time amendments to this Agreement or additional Agreements or schedules as may be required by the Bond Trustee
in order that the Security shall attach to such personal property. 
 Section 2.07 Scope of Security. 

(1) To the extent that the creation of the Security would constitute a breach or permit the acceleration or termination
of any agreement, right, licence or permit of the Guarantor (each, a “Restricted Asset”), the Security shall not attach to the Restricted Asset but the Guarantor shall hold its interest in the Restricted Asset in trust for the Bond
Trustee, and shall be deemed to have granted a Security in such Restricted Asset to the Bond Trustee or as it may direct immediately, and such Security shall attach to the Restricted Asset, upon obtaining the consent of the other party. 

(2) Until the Security shall have become enforceable, the grant of the Security in the Intellectual Property shall not
affect in any way the Guarantor’s rights to commercially exploit the Intellectual Property, defend it, enforce the Guarantor’s rights in it or with respect to it against third parties in any court or claim and be entitled to receive any
damages with respect to any infringement of it. 

  
 6 








 (3) The Security shall not extend to consumer goods. 

(4) The Security shall not extend or apply to the last day of the term of any lease or sublease or any agreement for a
lease or sublease, now held or hereafter acquired by the Guarantor in respect of real property, but the Guarantor shall stand possessed of any such last day upon trust to assign and dispose of it as the Bond Trustee may direct. 

Section 2.08 Grant of Licence to Use Intellectual Property. 

For purposes of enabling the Bond Trustee to exercise its rights and remedies pursuant to Article 4, at such time as
the Bond Trustee shall be lawfully entitled to exercise its rights and remedies and for no other purpose, the Guarantor grants to the Bond Trustee an irrevocable, nonexclusive licence (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to
the Guarantor) to use, assign or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property wherever the same may be located, including in such licence access to (i) all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored, and (ii) all
computer programs used for compilation or print-out. 
 Section 2.09 Care and Custody of Collateral. 

(1) Subject to subsection (2) below, the Bond Trustee shall have no obligation to keep Collateral in its possession
identifiable. 
 (2) Prior to the service of a Guarantor Acceleration Notice, the Bond Trustee shall be bound to
exercise in the physical keeping of any Pledged Securities or Negotiable Collateral, only the same degree of care as it would exercise in respect of its own Securities, negotiable collateral or other investment property kept at the same place.

 (3) The Bond Trustee may, after the Security shall have become enforceable, (i) notify any person
obligated on an account or on chattel paper or any obligor on an instrument to make payments to the Bond Trustee whether or not the Guarantor was previously making collections on such accounts, chattel paper or instruments, and (ii) assume
control of any proceeds arising from the Collateral. 
 Section 2.10 Rights of the Guarantor in Respect of Pledged
Securities. 
 (1) Until the Security has become enforceable, the Guarantor shall be entitled to vote the
Pledged Securities and to give consents, ratifications or waivers and to receive all cash dividends in respect of the Pledged Securities. Upon a Guarantor Acceleration Notice being served, all rights of the Guarantor to vote the Pledged Securities
and to give consents, ratifications or waivers and to receive dividends in respect of the Pledged Securities shall cease and all such rights shall become vested solely and absolutely in the Bond Trustee. 

(2) Any dividends received by the Guarantor contrary to Section 2.10(1) or any other money or property which may be
received by the Guarantor at any time for, or in respect of, the Pledged Securities shall be received as trustee for the Bond Trustee and shall be immediately paid over to the Bond Trustee. 

  
 7 








 Section 2.11 Care and Custody of Securities. 

Unless a Guarantor Acceleration Notice has been served, the Bond Trustee shall not have any right to the collection of
dividends on, or exercise any option or right (including any right to vote, give consents, ratifications or waivers) in connection with, any Pledged Securities. The Bond Trustee need not protect or preserve any Collateral from depreciating in value
or becoming worthless and is released from all responsibility for any loss of value. 
 Section 2.12 Investments in
Substitution Assets. 
 (1) Notwithstanding the Security created by or pursuant to this Agreement, the Cash
Manager may, on behalf of the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee, invest in the name of the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee, monies standing from time to time to the credit of the Guarantor Accounts in Substitution Assets in accordance with the Cash
Management Agreement and the Guarantor Agreement provided that: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 any costs properly incurred by the Bond Trustee in making and changing investments will be reimbursed to the Bond Trustee by the Guarantor; and



  

	 	 (b)
	 all income from and proceeds following the disposal or maturity of Substitution Assets shall be credited to the relevant Guarantor Account.



 (2) Notwithstanding the Security created by or pursuant to this Agreement, Substitution
Assets may, on any Canadian Business Day, be sold, redeemed, realized or otherwise disposed of subject always to the other provisions of this Agreement. 
 Section 2.13 Management and Application of Funds. 

The Guarantor shall take or cause to be taken such action as may from time to time be necessary on its part to ensure
that the GDA Account (and/or, as applicable, the Standby GDA Account) shall from time to time be credited with all amounts received by the Guarantor and falling within any of the following categories: 

 

	 	 (a)
	 all Revenue Receipts and all Principal Receipts; 


  

	 	 (b)
	 all Cash Capital Contributions; 


  

	 	 (c)
	 amounts received by the Guarantor pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement; 



 

	 	 (d)

 Section 4.06 Disposal of Collateral. 

Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 4, if the Security has become enforceable otherwise than by
reason of a default in payment of any amount due on the Covered Bonds, the Bond Trustee will not be entitled to dispose of any of the Collateral unless either a sufficient amount would be realised to allow discharge in full of all amounts owing to
the Holders of Covered Bonds or the Bond Trustee is of the sole opinion, which shall be binding on the Bond Trustee, reached after considering at any time and from time to time the advice of any financial adviser (or such other professional advisers
reasonably selected by the Bond Trustee for the purpose of giving such advice), that the cash flow prospectively receivable by the Guarantor will not (or that there is a significant risk that it will not) be sufficient, having regard to any other

	 	 (a)
	 entry onto any premises where Collateral consisting of tangible personal property may be located; 



 

	 	 (b)
	 entry into possession of the Collateral by any method permitted by law;

 Such remedies may be exercised from time to time separately or in combination and are in addition to, and
not in substitution for, any other rights of the Bond Trustee however created. The Bond Trustee shall not be bound to exercise any right or remedy, and the exercise of rights and remedies shall be without prejudice to any other rights of the Bond
Trustee in respect of the Obligations including the right to claim for any deficiency. The taking of any action or proceeding or refraining from doing so, or any other dealings with any other security for the Obligations secured by this Agreement
shall not release or affect the Collateral or the Security.

enforceable:

doing or for any rent, charges, depreciation or damages incurred in connection with or resulting from such action; 


  

	 	 (e)
	 exercise all voting rights attached to the Pledged Securities (whether or not registered in the name of the Bond Trustee or its nominee) and give or
withhold all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, collect and receive dividends and other distributions relating thereto and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the absolute owner thereof;



  

	 	 (f)
	 deal with any security entitlements, securities accounts and securities intermediaries holding security entitlements as if it were the entitlement

Trustee or as it may direct;

	 	 (i)
	 commence, continue or defend any judicial or administrative proceedings for the purpose of protecting, seizing, collecting, realizing or obtaining
possession or payment of the Collateral, and give good and valid receipts and discharges in respect of the Collateral and compromise or give time for the payment or performance of all or any part of the accounts or any other obligation of any third
party to the Guarantor. 


 (2) The Bond Trustee shall have the power to insure against any

	 as a result of the Bond Trustee acting or failing to act in a certain way (other than which may arise from its negligence or wilful default or that
of its officers or employees); 


  

	 	 (b)
	 as a result of any act or failure to act by any person or persons to whom the Bond Trustee has delegated any of its trusts, rights, powers, duties,

person to maintain insurance, but to the extent that it does so, the Guarantor shall quarterly and on written request pay all insurance premiums and expenses which the Bond Trustee may properly incur in relation to such insurance. If the Guarantor
fails to pay such premiums or expenses or to reimburse the Bond Trustee therefor, the Bond Trustee shall be entitled to be indemnified out of the Collateral in respect thereof and, where a Guarantor Acceleration Notice has been served, the
indemnification of the Bond Trustee in respect of all such insurance premiums and expenses shall be payable in priority to payments to the Holders of the Covered Bonds and all other Secured Creditors and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

Obligations have become due and payable, the Bond Trustee (or a receiver appointed by it in accordance with this Agreement) may, for so long as no such amounts or not all such amounts have become due and payable, pay any monies referred to in
Section 4.07 into, and retain such monies in, an interest-bearing account (a “Retention Account”) to be held by it as security and applied by it in accordance with Section 4.07 as and when any of the amounts referred to
therein become due and payable. 

  
 16

(1) Any receiver appointed by the Bond Trustee shall be vested with the rights and remedies which could have been
exercised by the Bond Trustee in respect of the Guarantor or the Collateral and such other powers and discretions as are granted in the instrument of appointment and any supplemental instruments. The identity of the receiver, its replacement and its
remuneration shall be within the sole and unfettered discretion of the Bond Trustee. 
 (2) Any receiver
appointed by the Bond Trustee shall act as agent for the Bond Trustee for the purposes of taking possession of the Collateral, but otherwise and for all other purposes (except as provided below), as agent for the Guarantor. The receiver may sell,
lease, or otherwise dispose of Collateral as agent for the Guarantor or as agent for the Bond Trustee as the Bond Trustee may determine in its discretion. The Guarantor agrees to ratify and confirm all actions of the receiver acting as agent for the
Guarantor, and to release and indemnify the receiver in respect of all such actions.

appointing or refraining from appointing any receiver, shall not incur liability to the receiver, the Guarantor or otherwise and shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence of such receiver. 

Section 4.12 Appointment of Attorney. 

The Guarantor irrevocably appoints the Bond Trustee (and any of its officers) as attorney of the Guarantor (with full
power of substitution) to do, make and execute, in the name of and on behalf of the Guarantor, all such further acts, documents, matters and things which the Bond Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement
including the execution, endorsement and delivery of documents and any notices, receipts, assignments or verifications of the accounts and the delivery and transfer of any Collateral to the Bond Trustee or to its nominees or transferees. Whenever
the Security has become enforceable, the Bond Trustee or its nominees and transferees are empowered to exercise all rights and powers and to perform all acts of ownership with respect to the Collateral that constitutes Pledged Securities to the same
extent as the Guarantor might do. The power of attorney herein granted is in addition to, and not in substitution for any transfer power of attorney delivered by the Guarantor and such power of attorney may be relied upon by the Bond Trustee
severally or in combination. All acts of the attorney are ratified and approved, and the attorney shall not be liable for any act, failure to act or any other matter or thing, except for its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. This power of
attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. 
 Section 4.13 Dealing with the Collateral. 

(1) The Bond Trustee shall not be obliged to exhaust its recourse against the Guarantor or any other Person or against
any other security it may hold in respect of the Obligations before realizing upon or otherwise dealing with the Collateral in such manner as the Bond Trustee may consider desirable. Neither the taking of any judgement nor the exercise of


  
 17 









 
any power of seizure or sale shall extinguish the liability of the Guarantor to pay the Obligations, nor shall the same operate as a merger of any covenant contained in this Agreement or of any
other liability, nor shall the acceptance of any payment or other security constitute or create a novation. 

(2) The Bond Trustee may grant extensions or other indulgences, take and give up securities, accept compositions, grant
releases and discharges and otherwise deal with the Guarantor and with other Persons, sureties or securities as it may see fit without prejudice to the Obligations, the liability of the Guarantor or the rights of the Bond Trustee in respect of the
Collateral. 
 (3) The Bond Trustee shall not be (i) liable or accountable for any failure to collect,
realize or obtain payment in respect of the Collateral, (ii) bound to institute proceedings for the purpose of collecting, enforcing, realizing or obtaining payment of the Collateral or for the purpose of preserving any rights of any Persons in
respect of the Collateral, (iii) responsible for any loss occasioned by any sale or other dealing with the Collateral or by the retention of or failure to sell or otherwise deal with the Collateral, or (iv) bound to protect the Collateral
from depreciating in value or becoming worthless. 
 (4) The Guarantor shall not assert and hereby waives (to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), all of the rights, benefits and protections given by any present or future statute that imposes limitations on the rights, powers or remedies of a secured party or on the methods of, or procedures
for, realization of security, including any “seize or sue” or “anti-deficiency” statute or any similar provision of any other statute. 
 Section 4.14 Indemnity. 
 The Guarantor agrees to
indemnify in full (but only following service of an Issuer Acceleration Notice on the Issuer and service of a Notice to Pay on the Guarantor) the Bond Trustee and any receiver appointed in accordance with this Agreement from and against all losses,
actions, claims, costs (including legal costs and travel expenses), charges and expenses (including insurance premiums), demands and liabilities whether in contract, tort or otherwise now or hereafter properly sustained or incurred by the Bond
Trustee or such receiver and its respective officers and employees or by any person for whose liability, act or omission the Bond Trustee or such receiver may be answerable, in connection with anything done or omitted to be done under or pursuant to
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which such entity is a party, or in the exercise or purported exercise of the powers herein contained, or occasioned by any breach by the Guarantor of any of its covenants or other obligations to
the Bond Trustee, or in consequence of any payment in respect of the Obligations (whether made by the Guarantor or a third person) being declared void or impeached for any reason whatsoever. 

Section 4.15 Standards of Sale. 
 Without prejudice to the ability of the Bond Trustee to dispose of the Collateral in any manner which is commercially reasonable, the Guarantor acknowledges that a disposition of Collateral by the Bond
Trustee which takes place substantially in accordance with the following provisions shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable: 

  
 18 










	 	 (a)
	 the Collateral may be disposed of in whole or in part; 



 

	 	 (b)
	 the Collateral may be disposed of by public auction, public tender, private contract or any other means, with or without advertising and without any
other formality; 


  

	 	 (c)
	 any assignee of such Collateral may be the Bond Trustee or a customer of the Bond Trustee; 



 

	 	 (d)
	 any sale conducted by the Bond Trustee shall be at such time and place, on such notice and in accordance with such procedures as the Bond Trustee,
in its sole discretion, may deem advantageous; 


  

	 	 (e)
	 Pledged Securities may be disposed of in any manner and on any terms necessary to avoid violation of applicable law (including, without limitation,
compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that the prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict the prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who
will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of the Pledged Securities) or in order to obtain any required approval of the disposition (or of the resulting
purchase) of any Governmental Authority; 


  

	 	 (f)
	 a disposition of Collateral may be on such terms and conditions as to credit or otherwise as the Bond Trustee, in its sole discretion, may deem
advantageous; and 


  

	 	 (g)
	 the Bond Trustee may establish an upset or reserve bid or price in respect of any Collateral. 



Section 4.16 Set-Off. 
 The Bond Trustee may at any time after the Security shall have become enforceable (without notice and notwithstanding any settlement of account or other matter whatsoever) combine or consolidate all or
any existing accounts of the Guarantor whether in its own name or jointly with others and held by it or any Secured Creditor and may set-off or transfer all or any part of any credit balance or any sum standing to the credit of any such account
(whether or not the same is due to the Guarantor from the Bond Trustee or relevant Secured Creditor and whether or not the credit balance and the account in debit or the Obligations are expressed in the same currency in which case the Bond Trustee
is hereby authorized to effect any necessary conversions at its prevailing rates of exchange) in or towards satisfaction of any of the Obligations and may in its absolute discretion estimate the amount of any liability of the Guarantor which is
contingent or unascertained and thereafter set-off such estimated amount and no amount shall be payable by the Bond Trustee to the Guarantor unless and until all Obligations have been ascertained and fully repaid or discharged. 

  
 19 









 Section 4.17 Dealings by Third Parties. 

(1) No Person dealing with the Bond Trustee or an agent or receiver shall be required to determine (i) whether the
Security has become enforceable, (ii) whether the powers which such Person is purporting to exercise have become exercisable, (iii) whether any money remains due to the Bond Trustee by the Guarantor, (iv) the necessity or expediency
of the stipulations and conditions subject to which any sale or lease is made, (v) the propriety or regularity of any sale or other dealing by the Bond Trustee with the Collateral, or (vi) how any money paid to the Bond Trustee has been
applied. 
 (2) Any purchaser of Pledged Securities from the Bond Trustee shall hold the Pledged Securities
absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity of redemption, of the Guarantor, which it specifically waives (to the fullest extent permitted by law) as against any such purchaser, all rights of redemption, stay or
appraisal which the Guarantor has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted. 

Section 4.18 Risk of Funds. 
 None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall require the Bond Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the
exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it believes that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to it, provided that the Bond Trustee shall, forthwith upon making such a determination, deliver
notice of the same to the Secured Creditors and the Guarantor, which notice shall include the grounds for such belief . 

Section 4.19 Fondé de Pouvoir and Power of Attorney 

The Bond Trustee is hereby appointed and accepts its appointment as a holder of an irrevocable power of attorney
(fondé de pouvoir) of the Secured Creditors as contemplated by Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec to enter into, to take and to hold, on behalf of and for the benefit of each of the Secured Creditors any hypothec
granted pursuant to the laws of the Province of Québec to secure or evidence the Obligations, and to exercise such powers and duties that are conferred upon the Bond Trustee under any deed of hypothec, or under this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents. Any Person who becomes a Secured Creditor will be deemed to have consented to confirm the Bond Trustee as fondé de pouvoir and to have ratified as of the date such Person becomes a Secured Creditor all actions
taken by the fondé de pouvoir. The execution by the Bond Trustee, acting as fondé de pouvoir and mandatary, prior to the execution of this Agreement or any deeds of hypothec, is hereby ratified and confirmed.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Québec), the Bond Trustee may acquire and be the holder of any bond issued by the Guarantor (i.e., the fondé de
pouvoir may acquire and hold the first bond issued under any deed of hypothec by the Guarantor).
