issued originally or in exchange for another Debenture, shall bear interest from and including the Issue Date or from and including the last Interest Payment Date on which interest shall have been paid or made available for payment on the Debentures
then Outstanding, whichever shall be the later, to but excluding the earlier of: 
  

	 	(a)	the following Interest Payment Date; 

  

	 	(b)	if purchased in accordance with section 3.2, the date of payment; 

  

	 	(c)	if repurchased in accordance with section 3.3, the Payment Date; 

  

	 	(d)	if converted in accordance with section 4.1, the Conversion Date; and 

  

	 	(e)	the Maturity Date; 

 as the case may be (the “Interest
Period”). The first Interest Payment Date shall be May 31, 2008, and the interest payment payable on such Interest Payment Date will amount to $22.58 per $1,000 principal amount of Debenture. Each subsequent payment on an Interest
Payment Date will amount to $20 per $1,000 principal amount of Debenture. The interest payable per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures in respect of an Interest Period other than an Interest Period that ends on an Interest Payment Date shall be
calculated by multiplying $1,000 by the interest rate of 4.0% per annum, dividing the product so obtained by 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be, and multiplying the quotient by the actual number of days in the said Interest Period.

  

	2.4	Additional Interest 

 2.4.1 It is understood and agreed that the
Holders will suffer damages and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision if (a) the Company does not file the Registration Statement within 45 days of the first issuance of the Debentures (the
“Filing Deadline”), or (b) the Registration Statement does not become effective no later than 90 days after the first issuance of the Debentures (the “Effectiveness Deadline”), as required by and in the manner
prescribed in the Registration Rights Agreement (each event described in any of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) is individually referred to herein as a “Registration Default”). For purposes of this Indenture, each
Registration Default set forth above shall begin and end on the dates set forth in the table set forth below: 
  

 - 20 - 









					
	 Type of Registration
 Default by Clause
	  	 Beginning Date
	  	 Ending Date

	(a)	  	Filing Deadline	  	the date the Registration Statement is filed
			
	(b)	  	Effectiveness Deadline	  	the date the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Applicable Securities Laws

 2.4.2 Commencing on (and including) any date that a Registration Default has begun and ending on (but excluding)
the next date on which there are no Registration Defaults that have occurred and are continuing (a “Registration Default Period”), the Company shall be required to pay to Holders in respect of each day in the Registration Default
Period additional interest in respect of the Outstanding Debentures, at a rate per annum equal to an additional 0.5% of the aggregate principal amount of such Debentures (the “Additional Interest Amount”). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Additional Interest Amount shall accrue as to any Debenture from and after the date such security is no longer required to be registered pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The rate of accrual of the Additional Interest
Amount with respect to any period shall not exceed the rate provided for in this subsection 2.4.2 notwithstanding the occurrence of multiple concurrent Registration Defaults. 
 2.4.3 The Additional Interest Amount shall accrue from the first day of the applicable Registration Default Period, and shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date during the Registration Default Period (and on the
Interest Payment Date next succeeding the end of the Registration Default Period if the Registration Default Period does not end on a Interest Payment Date) to the Holders entitled thereto; provided that any Additional Interest Amount accrued with
respect to any Debenture or portion thereof purchased by the Company or converted into Common Shares prior to the Interest Payment Date, shall, in any such event, be paid instead to the Holder who submitted such Debenture or portion thereof for
purchase or conversion on the applicable repurchase date or Conversion Date, as the case may be, on such date (or promptly following the Conversion Date, in the case of conversion), unless the repurchase date or Conversion Date, as the case may be,
falls after a Regular Interest Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, in which case such Additional Interest Amount shall be paid to such Holder on such Interest Payment Date. 
 2.4.4 All of the Company’s obligations set forth in this Section 2.4 that are outstanding with respect to any Debenture at the time such Debenture is no longer
required to be registered pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such Debenture have been satisfied in full, notwithstanding any termination of this Indenture. 

2.4.5 The parties hereto agree that the additional interest provided for in this Section 2.4 constitutes a reasonable estimate of the damages that may be
incurred by Holders by reason of the failure of a Registration Statement to be filed or declared effective in accordance with the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement. 
 2.4.6 If an Additional Interest Amount is payable by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Company shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to that 

  

 - 21 - 








 
effect stating (i) the Additional Interest Amount that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest Amount is payable. Unless and
until a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee receives such Officer’s Certificate, the Indenture Trustee may assume without inquiry that no Additional Interest Amount is payable. If the Company has paid an Additional Interest Amount
directly to the Persons entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. Under no circumstances shall the Indenture Trustee be liable or responsible for
the determination of the amount of the Additional Interest Amount or as to whether any Additional Interest Amount is payable. 
  

	2.5	Prescription 

 Subject to the provisions of
Article 10 hereof, the Company shall have satisfied its obligations under the Debentures upon remittance to the Indenture Trustee for the account of the Debentureholders, upon repurchase, conversion or at the Maturity Date, of any and all
consideration due hereunder in cash or by the delivery of Common Shares or Freely Tradable Common Shares, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, and such remittance shall for all purposes be deemed a payment to the
Debentureholders, and to that extent such Debentures shall thereafter not be considered as Outstanding and the Debentureholders shall have no right, except to receive, upon surrender of their Debentures, payment out of the moneys so paid and
deposited or the Common Shares or Freely Tradable Common Shares (as the case may be) so deposited. 
  

	2.6	Issue of Debentures 

 Debentures in such aggregate
principal amounts as the Board of Directors shall determine and in lawful money of the United States shall be executed by the Company from time to time and, forthwith after such execution, shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be
authenticated by the Indenture Trustee and delivered pursuant to the written direction of the Company (or as the Company may otherwise direct in writing) in accordance with the terms of section 2.8. Other than as contemplated by
subsection 2.9.2, the Indenture Trustee shall receive no consideration for the authentication of Debentures. 
  

	2.7	Execution 

 2.7.1 The Debentures shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by any two Responsible Officers of the Company. The Debentures may, but need not, be under the corporate seal of the Company or a reproduction thereof (which reproduction shall for such purposes be deemed to be the corporate seal of the
Company). The signature of any of these officers on the Debentures may be manual or facsimile. Debentures bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Debentures. 
 2.7.2
If Debentures are issued as Definitive Debentures, the Company shall provide to the Indenture Trustee a supply of certificates to evidence such Definitive Debentures in such form, in such amounts, bearing such distinguishing letters and numbers, and
as at such times as are necessary to enable the Indenture Trustee to fulfill its responsibilities under this Indenture. 
  

 - 22 - 









	2.8	Authentication by Indenture Trustee 

 2.8.1 At any time and from
time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Debentures executed on behalf of the Company to the Indenture Trustee for authentication, pursuant to a Company Order applicable thereto and evidence of
compliance in accordance with section 11.4 and Applicable Law. Upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee of a Company Order applicable to such Debentures and such evidence of compliance, the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such
Debentures in the manner specified in such Company Order, without receiving any consideration for such authentication and delivery. 
 2.8.2 No Holder shall
be entitled to any right or benefit under this Indenture with respect to a Debenture, and such Debenture shall not be valid or binding for any purpose, unless such Debenture has been authenticated by the Indenture Trustee, as evidenced by the manual
signature of an authorized signatory of the Indenture Trustee. Such authentication upon any Debenture shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Debenture has been issued under this Indenture. 
 2.8.3 Debentures bearing the manual signature of an individual who was, at the time that such signature was affixed, an authorized signatory of the Indenture Trustee,
shall be valid and binding on the Indenture Trustee notwithstanding that such individual ceased to be an authorized signatory of the Indenture Trustee prior to the delivery of such Debentures. 
 2.8.4 The authentication by the Indenture Trustee on the Debentures shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Indenture Trustee as to the validity of
this Indenture or of the Debentures (except in respect of the due authentication thereof) or as to the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Indenture, and the Indenture Trustee shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the
use made of the Debentures or any of them or of the proceeds thereof. 
  

	2.9	Registration of Exchanges 

 2.9.1 Debentures may be exchanged for
one or more Debentures in an equal aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Debentures to be exchanged at the specified office of the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that each Debenture issued in exchange for such original Debenture
shall have a principal amount in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. 
 2.9.2 The Indenture Trustee may make a charge to reimburse
itself for any stamp taxes or governmental charges required to be paid and a reasonable charge for its services and a reasonable sum per Debenture created and issued upon any exchange or transfer of Debentures effected by it. Payment of such charges
will be made by the Person requesting the exchange or transfer as a condition precedent to such exchange or transfer. 
  

	2.10 	Persons Entitled to Payment 

 2.10.1 Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer of any Debenture, the Company, the Indenture Trustee and any other Person, as the case may be, may treat the Person, 

  

 - 23 - 








 
as the case may be, in whose name any Debenture is registered in the applicable register (including in the case of a Global Debenture, the Depository or the
nominee of such Depository in whose name such Global Debenture is registered) as the absolute and sole owner of such Debenture for all purposes including receiving payment of the principal of, and any premium, if any, interest or other amount on
such Debenture, receiving any notice to be given to the Holder of such Debenture, and (unless the Company shall provide to the Indenture Trustee a written notice that Applicable Law or the rules of a Recognized Stock Exchange require otherwise, on
which the Indenture Trustee may rely without investigation, and shall in no way be liable to the Holders or any other Person in so relying) effecting any Act of Holders with respect to such Debenture, whether or not any payment with respect to such
Debenture shall be overdue, and none of the Company, the Indenture Trustee or any other Person, as the case may be, shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 2.10.2 Delivery of a Debenture to the Indenture Trustee by or on behalf of the Holder thereof shall, upon payment of such Debenture, be a valid discharge to the Company of all obligations evidenced by such Debenture. None of the Company,
the Indenture Trustee or any other Person shall be bound to inquire into the title of any such Holder. 
 2.10.3 In the case of the death of one or more
joint registered Holders of a Debenture, the principal of, and premium, if any, interest and any other amounts on such Debenture may be paid to the survivor or survivors of such registered Holders whose receipt of such payment, accompanied by the
delivery of such Debenture, shall constitute a valid discharge to the Company and the Indenture Trustee of all of their respective obligations evidenced by such Debenture. 
  

	2.11 	Payment of Principal and Interest on Definitive Debentures 

 2.11.1
Subject to repurchase or conversion pursuant to the terms hereof, as payments in respect of interest on the Definitive Debentures become due, interest payable on the Definitive Debentures on an Interest Payment Date will be payable by the Company to
the Holders thereof in whose names the Debentures are registered at the close of business on the Regular Interest Record Date with respect to the applicable Interest Payment Date. No later than 12:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the Business Day
preceding the Interest Payment Date, the Company shall deliver sufficient funds by way of wire transfer in United States Dollars to the Indenture Trustee to enable it to forward or cause to be forwarded, to the Holder in whose name any Debenture is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Interest Record Date with respect to the applicable Interest Payment Date, or in the case of joint Holders, to any one of such joint Holders whose names appear on such register, on the Interest
Payment Date (or the first Business Day thereafter if the Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day), (i) a cheque by prepaid post to such Holder’s last address appearing on the relevant register, or (ii) a wire transfer to the wire
transfer address provided to the Indenture Trustee in the case of such Holder on or before the Regular Interest Record Date or other applicable record date, as the case may be, in United States Dollars for such interest (less any withholding or
other tax required by law to be deducted) payable to the order of such Holder or Holders. The forwarding of such funds by the Company to the Indenture Trustee and the subsequent delivery of such funds by the Indenture Trustee to the Holders by
cheque or wire transfer shall satisfy and discharge the Company’s liability for payment of the interest on the Debentures to the extent of the sums represented thereby, plus the 

  

 - 24 - 








 
amount of any withholding or other tax deducted as aforesaid, unless such cheque is not paid at par on presentation; provided that in the event of the
non-receipt of such cheque by the Holder, or the loss or destruction thereof, the Indenture Trustee on being furnished with reasonable evidence of such non-receipt, loss or destruction and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it shall issue to such
Holder a replacement cheque for the amount of such cheque. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company is prevented by circumstances beyond its control (including, without limitation, any interruption in mail service) from making payment of any
interest due on each Debenture in the manner provided above, the Company may make payment of such interest or make such interest available for payment in any other manner acceptable to the Indenture Trustee with the same effect as though payment had
been made in the manner provided above. 
 2.11.2 If a Debenture or a portion thereof is repurchased or converted and the Payment Date or Conversion Date is
subsequent to a Regular Interest Record Date but prior to the related Interest Payment Date, interest accrued on such Debenture up to but excluding the Payment Date or the Conversion Date will be paid to the Holder who submitted such Debenture or
portion thereof for purchase or conversion upon presentation and surrender of such Debenture to the Corporate Trust Office. 
 2.11.3 Subject to the
foregoing provisions of this section, each Debenture delivered upon the transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Debenture shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Debenture.

  

	2.12 	Book-Based System 

 2.12.1 The Debentures shall initially be issued
as Book-Entry Only Debentures and shall be represented by one or more fully-registered permanent global security certificates in the form of the certificate set out in Schedule “A” hereto together with the legend provided for in
subsection 2.12.2 and subsection 2.20, as applicable (the “Global Debenture(s)”). The Global Debenture(s) shall be held by, or on behalf of, the Depository as depository of the Participants in the Book-Based System and shall be
registered in the name of “CEDE & Co.” as the nominee of the Depository (or such other name as the Depository may use from time to time as its nominee for the purposes of the Book-Based System). No Beneficial Holder will receive
Definitive Debentures representing its beneficial ownership in Debentures unless the Company determines to terminate the use of the Book-Based System with respect to the Debentures, or as otherwise provided in subsection 2.15.3. 
 2.12.2 The Global Debenture(s) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form subject to modification as required by the Depository: 
 “THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITORY OR A
NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR A SECURITY REGISTERED, AND NO TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IN WHOLE OR IN PART MAY BE REGISTERED, IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN SUCH DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF,
EXCEPT IN CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.” 
  

 - 25 - 








 2.12.3 If the Debentures cease to be held and/or traded in the Depository’s Book-Based System, the Company covenants
and agrees that it shall use reasonable efforts to make such other book entry arrangements that it determines are reasonable for the Debentures. 
  

	2.13 	Payments of Principal and Interest for Book-Entry Only Debentures 

 Subject to section 3.3 and Article 5, as payments in respect of principal and interest on the Debentures represented by the Global Debenture(s) become due, the Company shall (except in cases of payments on
repurchase or conversion which shall be made only upon presentation and surrender of the Global Debenture(s)), no later than on the applicable Interest Payment Date or on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, provide to the Indenture Trustee such
payment by electronic funds transfer in United States Dollars to an account designated by the Indenture Trustee, at or before 12:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the Business Day preceding such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case
may be, for all amounts due in respect of such principal and interest on the Debentures represented by the Global Debenture(s) to enable the Indenture Trustee to forward or cause to be forwarded such funds to the Depository for credit by the
Depository to Participants’ accounts. Neither the Company nor the Indenture Trustee for any Debenture issued as a Global Debenture will be liable or responsible to any Person for any aspect of the records related to or payments made on account
of beneficial interests in any Global Debenture, including maintaining, reviewing or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests. For greater certainty, it is acknowledged that payment of principal amount on any Global Debenture
shall be made only upon presentation and surrender of such Global Debenture. 
  

	2.14 	Rank and Subordination 

 The Debentures
authenticated and issued under this Indenture rank pari passu with one another, in accordance with their tenor without discrimination, preference or priority. 
  

	2.15 	Register and Transfer 

 2.15.1 The Company shall cause to be kept by
and at the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee in the City of New York, State of New York, a register, in which shall be entered the names and latest known addresses of the Holders of Debentures and the other particulars prescribed by
law of the Debentures held by them respectively and all transfers of Debentures. Such registration shall be noted on the Debentures by the Indenture Trustee. No transfer of a Debenture shall be effective as against the Company unless made on such
register by the registered Holder or his executors or administrators or other legal representatives or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and execution satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, upon compliance with
such requirements as the Indenture Trustee may prescribe, and unless such transfer shall have been duly noted on such Debenture by the Indenture Trustee. Debentures may only be transferred in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.

 2.15.2 With respect to Debentures issued as Book-Entry Only Debentures, the Company shall cause to be kept by and at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Indenture Trustee in the City of New York, State of New York, a register in which shall be entered the name(s) and latest known 

  

 - 26 - 








 
address(es) of the Holder(s) of each Global Debenture (being the Depository, or its nominee, for such Global Debenture) and the other particulars prescribed
by law of the Debentures held by it (them) and all transfers of Debentures. Beneficial interest in a Global Debenture shall be represented through book-entry accounts, to be established and maintained by the Depository or its nominee for
Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Holders. The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to inquire as to or list on such register the names of any Beneficial Holders. 
 2.15.3 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, a Global Debenture may not be transferred by the registered Holder thereof except through records maintained by the Depository or its nominee in the
following circumstances or as otherwise specified in a Board Resolution or Written Order: 
  

	 	(a)	the Global Debenture may be transferred by a Depository to a nominee of such Depository or by a nominee of a Depository to such Depository or to another nominee of such Depository
or by a Depository or its nominee to a successor Depository or its nominee; 

  

	 	(b)	the Global Debenture may be transferred at any time after the Depository for such Global Debenture (i) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
Depository for such Global Debenture or (ii) ceases to be eligible to be a Depository provided that at the time of such transfer the Company has not appointed a successor Depository for such Global Debenture; 

  

	 	(c)	the Global Debenture may be transferred at any time after the Company has determined, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Book-Based System in respect of such Global Debenture
and has communicated such determination to the Indenture Trustee in writing; and 

  

	 	(d)	the Global Debenture may be transferred at any time after the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the
Debentures issued as a Global Debenture, provided that at the time of such transfer the Indenture Trustee has not waived the Event of Default pursuant to Article 9. 

 2.15.4 Global Debenture certificates representing Restricted Debentures bearing the U.S. Legend only shall be identified by a CUSIP number different from the CUSIP number that identifies the Restricted Debentures
bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend, or the CUSIP number that identifies the Unrestricted Debentures. The Indenture Trustee and the Depository will maintain a list of all registered Holders of Restricted Debentures bearing the U.S.
Legend only, a list of all registered Holders of Restricted Debentures bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend, and the list of all registered Holders of Unrestricted Debentures. 
 2.15.5 If Restricted Debentures bearing a U.S. Legend only are (a) sold (i) in accordance with Rule 144 of the 1933 Act or (ii) under the Registration
Statement, in each case with an opinion of the Company’s United States legal counsel, which shall be provided promptly at the Company’s expense, that the U.S. Legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of 

  

 - 27 - 








 
the 1933 Act or United States state securities laws (a “Non-Exempt Sale”), or (b) eligible to have the legend removed in accordance
with Rule 144(k) of the 1933 Act, upon written request by the Holder, accompanied by an opinion of the Company’s United States legal counsel, which shall be provided promptly at the Company’s expense, that the U.S. Legend in no longer
required under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or state securities laws, and upon the written direction of the Company, the Indenture Trustee shall instruct the Depository to reduce the aggregate principal amount of Debentures
represented by the CUSIP number designated for the Restricted Debentures bearing the U.S. Legend only by the aggregate principal amount of Debentures sold in a Non-Exempt Sale, as applicable, and increase the aggregate principal amount of Debentures
represented by the CUSIP number designated for Unrestricted Debentures by the same aggregate principal amount of Debentures; provided that in each case the Company’s United States legal counsel may, as to any fact known to the Holder that forms
a basis for the opinion, rely conclusively on a certificate provided by such Holder, and shall be entitled to withhold its opinion in the absence of a certificate satisfactory to it regarding such factual matters. 
 2.15.6 If a Beneficial Holder of a Restricted Debenture bearing the U.S. Legend only wishes at any time to exchange its beneficial interest therein for a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Debenture bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend, or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Debenture bearing
both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend, then such exchange or transfer may be effected, subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository (the “Applicable Procedures”) and minimum denomination requirements, only
in accordance with this subsection 2.15.6. Upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office of: (i) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from a Participant directing the Indenture Trustee to
credit or cause to be credited to a specified Participant’s account a beneficial interest in the Restricted Debenture bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend in a principal amount equal to that of the beneficial interest in the
Restricted Debenture bearing the U.S. Legend only to be so exchanged or transferred (the “Transferred Amount”), (ii) written orders from the Participant whose account is to be debited hereunder given in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of the Participant to be credited with, and the account of the Participant to be debited for, such beneficial interest, and (iii) a certificate in substantially the form of
Appendix II to Schedule “A” hereto given by the Beneficial Holder of the Debenture to be so transferred, the Indenture Trustee shall instruct the Depository to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Debenture bearing the
U.S. Legend only, and to increase the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Debenture bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend, by the Transferred Amount, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person
specified in such instructions (which shall be the Participant) a beneficial interest in the Restricted Debenture bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend (or the Global Debenture representing such Debenture) having an aggregate
principal amount equal to the Transferred Amount. 
 2.15.7 If the Beneficial Holder of a Restricted Debenture bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian
Legend wishes at any time to exchange its beneficial interest therein for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Debenture bearing the U.S. Legend only, or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the
form of a beneficial 

  

 - 28 - 








 
interest in a Restricted Debenture bearing the U.S. Legend only, then such exchange or transfer may be effected, subject to the Applicable Procedures and
minimum denomination requirement, only in accordance with this subsection 2.15.7. Upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office of: (i) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from a
Participant directing the Indenture Trustee to credit or cause to be credited to a specified Participant’s account a beneficial interest in the Restricted Debenture bearing the U.S. Legend in a principal amount equal to that of the beneficial
interest in the Restricted Debenture bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend to be so exchanged or transferred (also the “Transferred Amount”), (ii) written orders from the Participant whose account is to be
debited hereunder given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of the Participant to be debited with, and the account of the Participant to be credited for, such beneficial interest and (iii) a
certificate in substantially the form set forth in Appendix II to Schedule “A” hereto given by the Beneficial Holder of the Debenture to be so transferred, the Indenture Trustee shall instruct the Depository to reduce the aggregate
principal amount of the Restricted Debenture bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend, and to increase the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Debenture bearing the U.S. Legend only, by the Transferred Amount, and to credit or
cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions (which shall be the Participant) a beneficial interest in the Restricted Debenture bearing the U.S. Legend only having an aggregate principal amount equal to the
Transferred Amount. 
 2.15.8 Unless otherwise instructed by the Company in writing, after the expiry of four months from the date hereof, the Indenture
Trustee shall, upon written request from a Holder of Restricted Debentures bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend, instruct the Depository to reduce the aggregate principal amount of Debentures represented by the CUSIP number
designated for the Restricted Debentures bearing both the U.S. Legend and the Canadian Legend by the aggregate principal amount of Debentures subject to such request, and (i) if the Debentures subject to such request have been sold in a
Non-Exempt Sale in accordance with subsection 2.15.5 as confirmed to the Indenture Trustee by the Company in writing, increase the aggregate principal amount of Debentures represented by the CUSIP number designated for Unrestricted Debentures by the
same aggregate principal amount of Debentures, or (ii) if the Debentures subject to such request have not been sold in a Non-Exempt Sale as confirmed to the Indenture Trustee by the Company in writing, increase the aggregate principal amount of
Debentures represented by the CUSIP number designated for Restricted Debentures bearing the U.S. Legend only by the same aggregate principal amount of Debentures. 
 2.15.9 Neither the Indenture Trustee nor any Agent thereof shall: (i) have any duty to monitor compliance with or with respect to any Canadian federal or provincial or other securities or tax laws, or any United States federal or state
or other securities or tax laws or (ii) except as specifically provided herein, have any duty to obtain documentation on any transfers or exchanges of Debentures. 
 2.15.10 Transfers and exchanges of Definitive Debentures shall be effected using substantially the procedures prescribed in this Section 2.15, mutatis mutandis. 
  

 - 29 - 









	2.16 	Additional Amounts 

 2.16.1 Any payments made by or on behalf of the
Company under or with respect to the Debentures will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future Taxes, unless the Company or any other payor is required to withhold or deduct Taxes by
Applicable Law or by the interpretation or administration thereof by the relevant Governmental Authority. If the Company is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the
Debentures, the Company will make such withholding or deduction and will remit the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority as and when required by Applicable Law and the Company will pay to the Indenture Trustee such
additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder of Debentures (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such
Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to any payment to a Holder (an “Excluded Holder”) in respect of a Beneficial
Holder who is liable for such Taxes in respect of such Debentures (i) by reason of such Holder or Beneficial Holder being a Person with whom the Company is not dealing at arm’s length for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada)
at the time of making such payment, or (ii) by reason of the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or Beneficial Holder and Canada or any province or territory thereof other than solely by reason of the Holder’s

substitution for the lost, stolen or destroyed Debenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Debenture shall be delivered as a replacement for any Debenture which has been mutilated or defaced otherwise than upon surrender of the mutilated or defaced
Debenture, and no Debenture shall be delivered as a replacement for any Debenture which has been lost, stolen or destroyed unless the applicant for the replacement Debenture has furnished to the Company and the Indenture Trustee evidence,

 2.18.3 Upon the issuance of a replacement Debenture, the Company may require the applicant
for such replacement Debenture to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to such issuance and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee and the Company)
connected with such issuance. 
 2.18.4 Each replacement Debenture shall bear a unique serial number and be in a form otherwise identical to the Debenture it
replaces and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture to the same extent and in the same manner as the Debenture it replaces. 
 2.18.5 Unless the
Company instructs the Indenture Trustee in writing otherwise, the Indenture Trustee shall, in accordance with its practice, destroy each mutilated or defaced Debenture surrendered to and cancelled by it and in respect of which a replacement
Debenture has been delivered or moneys have been paid and shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, furnish to the Company a certificate as to such destruction specifying in numerical sequence the serial numbers of the Debentures so destroyed.

under this Indenture or under the Debentures and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Indenture Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such
application, at its election, either:

accordance with subsection 2.15.1 and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application. 

 2.19.3 If the Indenture Trustee shall elect not to afford such Applicants access to such information, the Indenture Trustee shall, upon the written request of such Applicants, mail to each Debentureholder whose name
and address appear in the information maintained at the time by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with subsection 2.15.1, a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a

Applicable Law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such
objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring,
the Indenture Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such Holders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Indenture Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such
Applicants respecting their application. 
 2.19.4 Every Debentureholder, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Indenture
Trustee that neither the Company nor the Indenture Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders in accordance with subsection 2.19.2, regardless of the source from
which such information was derived, and that neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Company shall be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under subsection 2.19.3. 
 2.19.5 The Indenture Trustee shall not be obliged to recognize an Applicant who is a Beneficial Holder as a Person entitled to rights under this Section 2.19 unless
the application under subsection 2.19.2 of such Applicant is accompanied by a duly executed proxy or power of attorney from the registered Holder through whom such Applicant holds its beneficial interest in the Debentures, and a proxy or power of
attorney from each Participant who is an intermediary between such registered Holder and such Applicant, naming such Applicant as the proxy or attorney of the registered Holder with full power and authority on behalf of such Holder to exercise all
rights of such Holder and receive all information due to such Holder pursuant to this Section 2.19.

	3.1	No Optional Redemption of Debentures 

 The Company
shall not have the right to redeem the Debentures. 
  

	3.2	Purchase of Debentures 

 3.2.1 Provided that no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Company may purchase all or any of the Debentures in the open market (which shall include purchase from or through an investment dealer or a firm holding membership on a Recognized Stock Exchange or a purchase on the
PORTAL Market) or by tender or by private contract at any price, subject to compliance with Applicable Securities Laws. If an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default under Subsections 9.1(a) and 9.1(b), has occurred and is continuing, the
Company may purchase all or any of the Debentures as aforesaid with the exception of by private contract. If an Event of Default under Subsections 9.1(a) and 9.1(b), has occurred and is continuing, the Company may not purchase any of the Debentures

tendering Debentureholder who has tendered at such price. For this purpose, the Indenture Trustee may make, and from time to time amend, regulations with respect to the manner in which Debentures may be so selected and regulations so made shall be
valid and binding upon all Debentureholders and, notwithstanding the fact that, as a result thereof, one or more of such Debentures become subject to purchase in part only. The Holder of any Debenture of which a part only is purchased, upon
surrender of such Debenture for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such Holder, a replacement Debenture for and evidencing the same obligation as the unpurchased part so surrendered and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate

payment; (ii) the purchase price and the Payment Date; (iii) that any Debenture not tendered will continue to accrue interest pursuant to its terms; (iv) that, unless the Company defaults on the payment of the purchase price, any
Debenture accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer to Purchase shall cease to accrue interest and shall be null and void as an obligation of the Company on and after the Payment Date; (v) that Holders electing to have a Debenture purchased
pursuant to the Offer to Purchase will be required to surrender the Debenture to the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office or such other address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately
preceding the Payment Date; (vi) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Indenture Trustee receives, not later than the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Payment Date, a facsimile
transmission or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Debentures delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Debentures purchased; and (vii) that Holders whose
Debentures are being purchased only in part will be issued replacement Debentures equal in principal amount to and as evidence of the same underlying indebtedness as was evidenced by the unpurchased portion of the Debentures surrendered; provided
that each Debenture purchased and each replacement Debenture issued shall be in a principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof. 
 3.3.3 No later
than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the Payment Date the Company shall deposit with the Indenture Trustee money sufficient to pay the purchase price of all Debentures or portions thereof accepted for repurchase. On the Payment Date, the
Company shall (i) accept for payment Debentures or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Offer to Purchase; and (ii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Indenture Trustee all Debentures or portions thereof so accepted together
with an Officer’s Certificate specifying the Debentures or portions thereof accepted for payment by the Company. 
 3.3.4 The Indenture Trustee shall as
soon as practicable mail to the Holders of Debentures who have so accepted payment in an amount equal to the purchase price, and shall as soon as practicable authenticate and mail to such Holders a replacement Debenture equal in principal amount to
any unpurchased portion of the Debenture surrendered; provided that each 

  

 - 37 - 








 
Debenture purchased and each replacement Debenture issued shall be in a principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof. 
 3.3.5 The Company will publicly announce the results of an Offer to Purchase as soon as practicable after the Payment Date. 
 3.3.6 The Company will comply with all Applicable Securities Laws in the event that the Company is required to make an Offer to Purchase in connection with a Change of

 3.3.7 If a Change of Control that is a Cash Transaction occurs, the Company shall give written notice to the Indenture Trustee and all
Debentureholders at least 20 days prior to the anticipated Effective Date of such Cash Transaction. In that event, each Debentureholder converting any Debenture pursuant to Article 4 at anytime prior to the Effective Date shall be entitled to
receive, in addition to the number of Common Shares such Debentureholder would otherwise have been entitled to receive pursuant to Article 4, an additional number of Common Shares (“Additional Shares”) as set forth below:

  

	 	(a)	the number of Additional Shares to which the Debentureholder shall be entitled for every $1,000 of principal amount of the Debentures being converted shall be determined by
reference to the table set out in Schedule “D” hereto, based on the Effective Date of the Cash Transaction and the Common Share Price; 

  

	 	(b)	if the Common Share Price is in excess of $25.00 per Common Share or if the Common Share Price is less than $3.82 per Common Share, no Additional Shares shall be issued upon
conversion; 

  

	 	(c)	if the Common Share Price is between two Common Share Price amounts in the table set out in Schedule “D” or the Effective Date is between two dates in said table, the
number of Additional Shares shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Common Share Price amounts and the two dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year; and


  

	 	(d)	the Common Share Prices set forth in the first row of the table in Schedule “D” hereto and set forth in the paragraph (b) above shall be adjusted as of any date on
which the Conversion Number is adjusted pursuant to Article 6. The adjusted Common Share Price shall equal the Common Share Price applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
Conversion Number immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the Common Share Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Number as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares which the Company is obligated to deliver
shall be subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Number as set forth in Article 6; 

 and the Company shall provide the
Indenture Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate calculating the Additional Shares issuable, upon which the Indenture Trustee may rely without investigation, and shall in no way be liable to the Holders or Beneficial Holders or any other Person
in so relying.

 All
Debentures purchased or repurchased in whole or in part pursuant to this Article 3 shall be forthwith delivered to and cancelled by the Indenture Trustee and may not be reissued or resold and no Debentures shall be issued in substitution

their attorney duly appointed by instrument in form and execution satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, together with the related Debentures. The Conversion Notice shall specify the date of conversion (the “Conversion Date”) of the

number of Common Shares to be delivered for each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, plus the accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and the calculation of the Conversion Number; and 

  

	 	(f)	the receipt by the Indenture Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Common Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered pursuant to the terms of
this Indenture, will be validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable. 

 If the foregoing conditions are not satisfied prior
to the close of business on the fifth Business Day following the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay in cash the Conversion Value of the Debentures in lieu of delivery of the Conversion Number of Common Shares, unless such Debentureholder waives
the conditions which are not satisfied or extends the time by which the Company is to satisfy such conditions.

(a) a wire transfer of funds in the amount of the value of a fractional Common Share in accordance with section 4.3, if any; (b) a wire transfer of funds in the amount of the accrued and unpaid interest thereon; and (c) if the Holder
has elected to convert a principal amount of Debentures (the “converted amount”), which is less than the principal amount of all Debentures of which such person is the Holder immediately prior to such conversion (the
“registered amount”), either (i) Definitive Debenture(s) registered in the name of such Holder in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount by which the registered amount exceeds the converted amount, if the Holder is a
Holder of Definitive Debentures, or (ii) a notation on the Principal Amount Grid attached as Appendix I to the Global Debenture certificate reducing the principal amount thereof by the converted amount. 
 4.2.2 All Debentures converted in whole or in part pursuant to this Article 4 shall be forthwith delivered to and cancelled by the Indenture Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee shall amend the register maintained by it accordingly.

 No fractional Common Shares
shall be delivered upon the conversion of Debentures but, in lieu thereof, if such a fraction shall become owing, the Company shall pay to the Holders, or to the Indenture Trustee on account of the Holders if necessary, at the time contemplated in
subsection 4.2.1, the cash equivalent thereof determined by the Company on the basis of the Current Market Price of Common Shares as at the Conversion Date, as certified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer’s Certificate. 
  

	4.4	Relating to the Issue of Common Shares

treated as the shareholder of record of the Common Shares issued on due conversion of his Debentures and the issuance of Common Shares shall be deemed to have occurred, for all purposes, effective immediately after the close of business on the
Conversion Date; such Holder shall be entitled to all substitutions therefor, all income earned thereon or accretions thereto and all dividends or distributions (including stock dividends and dividends or distributions in kind) thereon and arising
thereafter and in the event that the Indenture Trustee receives the same and it is identified in writing by the Company as being distributable to such Holder, it shall hold the same under gratuitous deposit for the benefit of such Holder.

 4.4.2 The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares (if the number thereof is or becomes limited) for the
purpose of issue and delivery upon the conversion of Debentures, and shall issue to Debentureholders who may exercise their conversion rights hereunder such number of Common Shares as shall be issuable in such events. 
 4.4.3 The Company shall comply with all Applicable Securities Laws regulating the issue and delivery of Common Shares upon conversion of Debentures, shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any regulatory approval in respect thereof as may be required pursuant to Applicable Securities Laws and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be listed and posted for trading such Common
Shares on each Recognized Stock Exchange. 
  

	4.5	Legends on Common Shares 

 Each certificate
representing Common Shares issued upon conversion or payment thereof of Restricted Debentures pursuant to this Article 4 or Article 5 below, as well as all certificates issued in exchange for or in substitution of the foregoing Common
Shares, shall bear a U.S. Legend substantially as set forth in subsection 2.20.1; provided that, if any such securities are being issued in exchange for or in substitution of Restricted Debentures which would be eligible under subsection
2.20.1 to have the U.S. Legend removed, such securities may be issued without such U.S. Legend at the written direction of the Company upon the written request of the Holder, with delivery of appropriate certifications, and delivery to the Company,
the Indenture Trustee, the Transfer Agent, the Depository, and the transferee’s designated Participant of an opinion of the Company’s United States legal counsel, which shall be provided promptly at the Company’s expense, that such
legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or state securities laws; provided that in each case the Company’s United States legal 

  

 - 41 - 








 
counsel may, as to any fact known to the Holder that forms a basis for the opinion, rely conclusively on a certificate provided by such Holder, and shall be
entitled to withhold its opinion in the absence of a certificate satisfactory to it regarding such factual matters. 
  

	4.6	Limitations on Conversion 

 4.6.1 The Company shall not effect any
conversion of the Debentures and no Holder or “beneficial holder” (for the purposes of this Section 4.6, such term shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act) of Debentures shall have the
right to convert the principal amount of its Debentures into Common Shares in excess of that portion of the principal amount of such Debentures that, upon giving effect to such conversion, would cause the aggregate number of Common Shares
beneficially owned by such Holder or beneficial holder and its affiliates to exceed 4.99% of the total outstanding Common Shares following such conversion; provided that the Holder or beneficial holder may increase the 4.99% limitation threshold to
9.99%, by providing written notice of its desire to increase such threshold, which increase shall be effective 61 days after the receipt of notice by the Company. Thereafter, with respect to such Holder or beneficial holder, the reference to 4.99%
in this section may be read as 9.99%. 
 4.6.2 For the purposes of this section 4.6, the aggregate number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder
or beneficial holder and its affiliates shall include the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s or beneficial holder’s Debentures, with respect to which the determination contemplated in subsection 4.6.1 is being made,
but shall exclude the Common Shares that would be issuable upon (i) the conversion of the remaining, unconverted, principal of the Debentures beneficially owned by the Holder or beneficial holder and its affiliates and (ii) the exercise,
conversion or exchange of the unexercised, unconverted or unexchanged portion of any other securities of the Company (including any warrants, options or other convertible securities) beneficially owned by the Holder or beneficial holder and its
affiliates, that are subject to a limitation on conversion, exercise or exchange analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for the purposes of this section 4.6, beneficial ownership shall be
calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For the purposes of this section 4.6, in determining the number of outstanding Common Shares the Holder or beneficial holder may rely on the number of outstanding Shares as reflected
in (i) the Company’s most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q, or annual report on Form 10-K, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (iii) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer
Agent setting forth the number of Common Shares outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder or beneficial holder, the Company shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days following the receipt of such request,
confirm in writing to the Holder or beneficial holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Common Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion, exercise or exchange of securities of
the Company, including the Debentures, by the Holder or beneficial holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding Common Shares was reported. 
 4.6.3 For the purpose of determining the maximum number of Common Shares that the Company may issue to the Holder or beneficial holder upon the conversion of a given Holder’s or beneficial holder’s
Debentures on a particular Conversion Date, the Holder’s delivery of a 

  

 - 42 - 








 
Conversion Notice with respect to such conversion shall constitute a representation (on which the Company and the Indenture Trustee may rely without
investigation, and shall in no way be liable to the Holders or beneficial holders or any other Person in so relying) by the Holder and the beneficial holder that, upon the issuance of the Common Shares to be issued to it on such conversion, the
Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder or beneficial holder and its affiliates shall not exceed 4.99% (or 9.99%, as the case may be) of the total outstanding Common Shares immediately after giving effect to such conversion, as determined in
accordance with subsection 4.6.2. 
 4.6.4 The limitations on the conversion of the Debentures set forth in this Section 4.6 shall not apply to the
exercise by the Company of its Share Repayment Right, or to the issuance of Additional Shares pursuant to subsection 3.3.7. 
 4.6.5 The Indenture Trustee
shall not be obliged to recognize a beneficial holder as a Person entitled to rights under this Section 4.6 unless the Conversion Notice concerning such beneficial holder’s Debentures is executed by the Participant through whom such
beneficial holder holds its beneficial interest in such Debentures and is accompanied by a certificate of such beneficial holder which contains the requisite representations and warranties and authorizes such Participant to deliver the same to the
Company and the Indenture Trustee as appended to Schedule “B-1” hereto. The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to rely on any document in writing provided by the Depository which identifies such Participant as a Participant with respect
to the aggregate principal amount of Debentures in respect of which such Conversion Notice is given. 
 ARTICLE 5 
 MATURITY 
  

	5.1	Payment of Principal and Interest at Maturity 

 On
the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holders of Debentures all the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon calculated up to but excluding the Maturity Date. Subject to section 5.2, payment of principal
and accrued and unpaid interest shall be made in cash or by cheque or by wire transfer, in each case, in United States Dollars to the Holders in the manner contemplated by section 2.11 or 2.13, as the case may be. 
  

	5.2	Right to Repay Principal Amount in Common Shares at Maturity 

 5.2.1
The Company may, at its option and subject to receiving all applicable regulatory approvals, elect to satisfy its obligation to repay on the Maturity Date the principal amount of all, but not less than all, of the Debentures by delivering to the
Holders and the Indenture Trustee not less than 40 days and not more than 60 days prior to the Maturity Date a maturity notice in the form of Schedule “B2” (the “Maturity Notice”) and, on the Maturity Date, by issuing and
delivering to Holders that number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares obtained by dividing each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures by 95% of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date (the “Share
Repayment Right”). 
 5.2.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not issue any Common Shares pursuant to this section 5.2 if the
issuance of such Common Shares, when combined with the 

  

 - 43 - 








 
aggregate number of Common Shares contemplated to be issued pursuant to the Share Repayment Right and any Common Shares issued upon conversion of the
Debentures prior to the date of Maturity, would exceed 19.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as of the date of this Indenture (the “Exchange Cap”), except that such limitation shall not apply if the Company obtains
(i) additional listing approval for the Common Shares to be so issued, if required, from the AMEX, the TSX and/or any other relevant Recognized Stock Exchange, as applicable, and (ii) consent for the issuance of such Common Shares from the
Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures Outstanding at the time such consent is solicited. 
 5.2.3 If the
Company exercises the Share Repayment Right and the issuance of Common Shares is limited by the Exchange Cap under section 5.2.2, the Company shall pay in cash to the Holders the difference between the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Debentures as of the Maturity Date and the value of Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Share Repayment Right (calculated by the Company by multiplying the number of Common Shares to be issued by 95% of the Current Market
Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date). 
 5.2.4 The Company shall be required to provide the Maturity Notice only if it elects to exercise the
Share Repayment Right. 
 5.2.5 The Company’s right to exercise the Share Repayment Right shall be conditional upon the following conditions being met
on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date: 
  

	 	(a)	the Common Shares to be issued on exercise of the Share Repayment Right shall be issued from treasury of the Company and shall be Freely Tradable and fully paid and non-assessable;


  

	 	(b)	such additional Common Shares shall be listed or quoted on each Recognized Stock Exchange; 

  

	 	(c)	the Company shall be a reporting issuer or equivalent in good standing or equivalent under Applicable Securities Laws in the United States and Provinces of Canada in which the
Company is a reporting issuer on Maturity; 

  

	 	(d)	no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 

  

	 	(e)	the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Officer’s Certificate stating that conditions (a), (b), (c) and (d) above have been satisfied and setting forth the
number of Common Shares to be delivered for each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, the Current Market Price of Common Shares on the Maturity Date and, if applicable, the amount of cash to be paid to Holders under section 5.2.3 above; and


  

	 	(f)	 the receipt by the Indenture Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Common Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered 



  

 - 44 - 









	 	 
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture in payment of the principal amount of the Debentures outstanding, will be validly issued as fully paid and
non-assessable. 


 If the foregoing conditions are not satisfied by the close of business on the Business Day preceding the
Maturity Date, the Company shall pay in cash 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures that would otherwise have been satisfied by issuing Common Shares pursuant to the Share Repayment Right, unless the Debentureholder waives the conditions
which are not satisfied or extends the time by which the Company is to satisfy such conditions. 
 5.2.6 In the event that the Company exercises its Share
Repayment Right, the Company shall on the Maturity Date (i) cause the registrar and transfer agent for its Common Shares to deliver to and on account of the Holders certificates representing the Freely Tradable Common Shares to which such
Holders are entitled, with a written notice to the Indenture Trustee confirming the same, and (ii) deliver to the Indenture Trustee for delivery to and on account of the Holders a wire transfer of funds representing all of the accrued and
unpaid interest up to but excluding the Maturity Date and any other funds payable to the Holders pursuant to subsections 5.2.3 and 5.2.7, as the case may be. Upon presentation and surrender of the Debentures by a Holder for payment at Maturity at
the Corporate Trust Office or any other place specified in the Maturity Notice, the Company shall cause to be delivered the certificates representing such Common Shares and the Indenture Trustee shall deliver the cheque representing all the accrued
and unpaid interest and the cash equivalent representing the value of fractional shares, if any. 
 5.2.7 No fractional Common Shares shall be delivered upon
the exercise of the Share Repayment Right but, in lieu thereof, if such a fraction shall become owing, the Company shall pay to the Indenture Trustee for the account of the Holders, at the time contemplated in subsection 5.2.6, the cash
equivalent thereof determined on the basis of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date. 
 5.2.8 A Holder shall be treated as the
shareholder of record of the Common Shares issued on due exercise by the Company of its Share Repayment Right effective immediately after the close of business on the Maturity Date, and shall be entitled to all substitutions therefor, all income
earned thereon or accretions thereto and all dividends or distributions (including stock dividends and dividends or distributions in kind) thereon and arising thereafter, and in the event that the Indenture Trustee receives the same, it shall hold
the same under gratuitous deposit for the benefit of such Holder. 
 5.2.9 The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized
Common Shares (if the number thereof is or becomes limited) for the purpose of issue and delivery upon the exercise of the Share Repayment Right as provided herein, and shall issue to Debentureholders to whom Common Shares will be issued pursuant to
the exercise of the Share Repayment Right, such number of Common Shares as shall be issuable in such event. 
 5.2.10 The Company shall comply with all
Applicable Securities Laws regulating the issue and delivery of Freely Tradable Common Shares upon exercise of the Share Repayment Right, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any regulatory approval in respect thereof as may be
required pursuant to Applicable Securities Laws and shall use its commercially 

  

 - 45 - 








 
reasonable efforts to cause to be listed and posted for trading such Common Shares on each Recognized Stock Exchange. 
 ARTICLE 6 
 ADJUSTMENTS 

  

	6.1	Adjustment of Conversion Price 

 6.1.1 The Conversion Price in
effect at any date will be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided as follows. 
 6.1.2 If and whenever at any time
after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Company: 
  

	 	(a)	subdivides, redivides or changes its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares; or 

  

	 	(b)	reduces, combines or consolidates its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares; 

  

	 	(c)	issues Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares as a stock dividend
or otherwise (other than an issue of Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares to holders of Common Shares pursuant to a right granted to such holders to receive such Common Shares in lieu of Dividends Paid in
the Ordinary Course); 

  

	 	(d)	makes a distribution on its outstanding Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares or securities convertible
into or exchangeable for Common Shares (other than an issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares pursuant to a right granted to such holders to receive such Common Shares in lieu of Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course);


 (any of such events in subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d), and being called a “Common Share Reorganization”) then the
Conversion Price then in effect will be adjusted effective on the effective date of a Common Share Reorganization, so that the Conversion Price shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such
effective date by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization and the denominator of which will be the total number of
Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have
been outstanding had all such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such effective date). 
 6.1.3 If and whenever at any time
after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Company fixes a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of all 

  

 - 46 - 








 
or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase during a period expiring not more
than 45 days after the record date for such issue (the “Rights Period”) Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares at a price per share in United States Dollars to the holder (or at an exchange
price or conversion price per share in the case of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) which is less than 95% of the Current Market Price for the Common Shares on such record date (any of such events being called a
“Rights Offering”), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to
the end of the Rights Period by a fraction: 
  

	 	(a)	the numerator of which will be the aggregate of: 

  

	 	(i)	the total number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering, and 

  

	 	(ii)	a number determined by dividing (A) either (x) the product of the number of Common Shares issued or subscribed for upon the exercise of the rights, warrants or options
under the Rights Offering and the price in United States Dollars at which such Common Shares are offered for such issue or subscription, or, as the case may be, (y) the product of the exchange price or conversion price of such securities
exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares and the number of Common Shares for or into which the securities so offered pursuant to the Rights Offering could have been exchanged or converted during the Rights Period, by (B) the Current
Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering, and 

  

	 	(b)	the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering, including the number of Common Shares actually issued or
subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering. 

 Any Debentureholder who
has exercised the right to convert to Common Shares in accordance with Article 4 during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period for the Rights Offering will,
in addition to the Common Shares to which that holder would otherwise be entitled upon such conversion, be entitled to that number of additional Common Shares equal to the result obtained when (x) the difference, if any, between the Conversion
Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period for such Rights Offering and the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection is multiplied by (y) the number of Common Shares received upon
the conversion of the Debentures held by such Holder during such period, and the resulting product is divided by (z) the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection; provided that the provisions of
section 4.3 will be applicable to any fractional interest in a Common Share to which such Holder might otherwise be entitled under the foregoing provisions of this subsection. Such additional Common Shares will be deemed to have been issued to
the Debentureholder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a 

  

 - 47 - 








 
certificate for such additional Common Shares will be delivered to such Holder within 15 Business Days following the end of the Rights Period. To the extent
that any such rights, options or warrants are not so exercised on or before the expiry thereof, the Conversion Price will be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based on the number of Common Shares (or the securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually delivered on the exercise of such rights, options or warrants. 
 6.1.4 If and whenever at any
time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Company fixes a record date for the issue or the distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares of (i) securities of the Company, including
rights, options or warrants to acquire securities of the Company or any of its property or assets and including cash and evidences of indebtedness; or (ii) any property or other assets, including cash and evidences of indebtedness, and if such
issuance or distribution does not constitute a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, a Common Share Reorganization, a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being called a “Special Distribution”), then the Conversion Price
will be adjusted effective immediately after the date of such issuance or distribution so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such issuance or distribution date by a fraction: 
  

	 	(a)	the numerator of which will be: 

  

	 	(i)	the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the date of such issuance or distribution and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the date of such issuance or
distribution; less 

  

	 	(ii)	the fair market value, as determined by action by the Board of Directors (whose determination, subject to the consent of a Recognized Stock Exchange, will be conclusive), to the
holders of Common Shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution; and 

  

	 	(b)	the denominator of which will be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the date of such issuance or distribution and the Current Market Price of the Common
Shares on such date. 

 6.1.5 If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, there is a reclassification of
the Common Shares at any time outstanding or change of the Common Shares into other shares or into other securities or other capital reorganization (other than a Common Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of, or an
arrangement involving, the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a vertical short-form amalgamation with one or more of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries pursuant to Applicable Law), or a transfer of the undertaking or
assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity in which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive shares, other securities or other property (any of such events being called a
“Capital Reorganization”), any Holder of Debentures who exercises the right to convert Debentures into Common Shares after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization will be entitled to receive, and will accept for the same
aggregate consideration 

  

 - 48 - 








 
in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was previously entitled upon such conversion, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or
other property which such holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such holder was
previously entitled upon conversion provided, however, that the consideration into which the Debentures will be convertible will be limited to the Common Shares or other prescribed securities (as defined by section 6208 of the regulations to the
Income Tax Act (Canada)) of the Company as specified by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company will take all steps necessary to ensure that, on a Capital Reorganization, the Holders of Debentures will receive the aggregate number
of shares, other securities or other property to which they are entitled as a result of the Capital Reorganization and that such shares or securities will be prescribed securities as defined in section 6208 of the regulations to the Income Tax
Act (Canada), which includes shares or securities not redeemable by the holder thereof within 5 years from the issue date of the Debentures. Appropriate adjustments will be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this
Article 6 as a result of any such Capital Reorganization with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Holders of Debentures to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 6 will thereafter correspondingly be made
applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of any Debenture. Prior to or concurrent with effecting a Capital Reorganization, the Company will
enter into an indenture supplemental hereto, or other appropriate document, approved by action of the Board of Directors and by the Indenture Trustee, which will set forth an appropriate adjustment to give effect to this subsection, in which event
such adjustment will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment, subject to the prior written consent of the Recognized Stock Exchanges, if so required. 
 6.1.6 If the purchase price provided for in any rights, options or warrants (the “Rights Offering Price”) referred to in subsections 6.1.3 or 6.1.4 is decreased, the Conversion Price will forthwith be
changed so as to decrease the Conversion Price to the Conversion Price that would have been obtained if the adjustment to the Conversion Price made under subsection 6.1.3 or 6.1.4, as the case may be, with respect to such rights, options or warrants
had been made on the basis of the Rights Offering Price as so decreased, provided that the terms of this subsection will not apply to any decrease in the Rights Offering Price resulting from terms in any such rights, options or warrants designed to
prevent dilution except to the extent that the resulting decrease in the Conversion Price under this subsection would be greater than the decrease, if any, in the Conversion Price to be made under the terms of this section by virtue of the
occurrence of the event giving rise to such decrease in the Rights Offering Price. 
  

	6.2	Other Adjustment of Conversion Price 

 If the
Company shall take any action affecting the Common Shares, other than an action described in subsections 6.1.2, 6.1.3, 6.1.4 or 6.1.6 but including an action under subsection 6.1.5, which results in a Holder of Debentures being unable, for
any period of time, to exercise conversion privileges that it would otherwise be permitted to exercise due to requirements necessary to ensure that the Debentures will be and will remain exempt from Canadian withholding tax, the Conversion Price may
be adjusted in such manner and at such time, or such other adjustment to the conversion privilege may be made, as the Board of 

  

 - 49 - 








 
Directors determine to be equitable in the circumstances, subject to the prior written consent of the Recognized Stock Exchanges. Failure of the Board of
Directors to take any such action shall be conclusive evidence that the Board of Directors has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances. 
  

	6.3	Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Conversion Price 

 For the purposes of sections 6.1 and 6.2: 
 6.3.1 The adjustments provided for in sections 6.1 and 6.2 are cumulative
and will be computed to the nearest one-tenth of one cent in United States Dollars and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs, subject to the following subsections of this section. 
 6.3.2 No adjustment in the Conversion Price will be required unless the cumulative effect of such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing
Conversion Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. 
 6.3.3 No adjustment in the Conversion Price will be required upon the issuance from time to time of Common Shares, or options or other securities pursuant to the
Company’s stock option plans or share purchase plan, or any dividend reinvestment plan, or any similar plan, if any, as such plans may be replaced, supplemented or further amended from time to time. In addition, for greater certainty, no
adjustment in the Conversion Price upon an event referred to in subsection 6.1.4 will be required upon the distribution from time to time of Common Shares by way of private placement or prospectus which is made to the public in general. 

6.3.4 No adjustment in the Conversion Price will be made in respect of subsections 6.1.2(c) or (d)), 6.1.3, 6.1.4 or 6.1.5, if Debentureholders are entitled to
participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if they had converted their Debentures prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event. Any such participation will be subject to any required prior consent of
any applicable Recognized Stock Exchange. 
 6.3.5 If at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in section 6.1, such dispute
will be conclusively determined, subject to the consent of a Recognized Stock Exchange, by the Company’s auditors, or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action
of the Board of Directors and any such determination will be binding upon the Company, the Indenture Trustee, the Debentureholders and shareholders of the Company; such auditors or accountants will be given access to all necessary records of the
Company. If any such determination is made, the Company will deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Indenture Trustee describing such determination, and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to act and rely upon such Officer’s
Certificate. 
 6.3.6 If the Company sets a record date to determine the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend
or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such 

  

 - 50 - 








 
dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other
action, then no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made. 
 6.3.7 In the absence of a resolution of the Board of Directors fixing a record date for
a Special Distribution or Rights Offering, the Company will be deemed to have fixed as the record date therefor the date on which the Special Distribution or Rights Offering is effected. 
 6.3.8 For greater certainty, Debentureholders shall have no right to convert Debentures into any security other than Common Shares unless an appropriate adjustment is made by and set forth in an indenture supplemental
hereto. 
  

	6.4	Certificate as to Adjustment 

 The Company shall
from time to time, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in section 6.1 and 6.2, deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Indenture Trustee specifying the nature of the event
requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment or readjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based, and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled
to act and rely upon such Officer’s Certificate. Such Officer’s Certificate and the amount of the adjustment specified therein shall be conclusive and binding on all parties in interest. Until such Officer’s Certificate is received by
the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may act and be protected in acting on the presumption that no adjustment has been made or is required. Except in respect of any subdivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares
contemplated by subsections 6.1.2(a) and 6.1.2(b), the Company shall forthwith give notice to the Debentureholders specifying the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the amount thereof, including the resulting Conversion Price;
provided that if the Company has given notice under section 6.5 covering all the relevant facts in respect of such event, no such notice need be given under this section 6.4. 
  

	6.5	Notice of Special Matters 

 The Company covenants
that, so long as any Debentures remain Outstanding, it will give written notice to the Indenture Trustee on account for the Debentureholders of its intention to fix a record date for any event referred to in subsections 6.1.2, 6.1.3, 6.1.4 or 6.1.5
(other than the subdivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of Common Shares contemplated by subsections 6.1.2(a) and 6.1.2(b)) or a cash dividend (other than a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course) which may give rise to an adjustment in
the Conversion Price, or other adjustment, and such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date and the effective date for such event; provided that the Company shall only be required to specify in such notice such
particulars of such event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given. Such notice shall be given not less than 14 days and not more than 60 days prior to the applicable record date in the case of an event
referred to in subsections 6.1.2, 6.1.3 or 6.1.4 and not less than 21 days and not more than 60 days prior to the applicable record date in the case of an event referred to in subsection 6.1.5.

 - 54 - 








 
mature at least three Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date and which the Indenture Trustee is required to hold until maturity (the

Trustee shall deposit amounts from the proceeds of the Common Share Proceeds Investment in the Property Account to bring the balance of the Property Account to the Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount to the extent that the Indenture
Trustee has been provided sufficient funds to do so. On the Interest Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay the funds held in the Property Account to the Holders in accordance with section 2.11 or 2.13. The Indenture Trustee shall remit
amounts, if any, in respect of income earned on the Common Share Proceeds Investment or otherwise in excess of the Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount to the Company. 
 7.1.13 Neither the making of a Common Share Interest Payment Election nor the consummation of sales of Common Shares on a Common Share Delivery Date will (i) result in the Holders of the Debentures not being
entitled to receive on the applicable Interest Payment Date cash in an aggregate amount equal to the Interest Obligation payable on such date, or (ii) entitle such Holders to receive any Common Shares in satisfaction of such Interest

less than 50% in principal amount of Outstanding Debentures, by written Notice to the Company and the Indenture Trustee, may thereupon rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if the Company has paid or deposited with the Indenture

	 	(b)	the principal of (and premium, if any) any of the Debentures which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest thereon at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in such Debentures; and 

  

	 	(c)	to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful and applicable, interest upon overdue installments of interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Debentures; and


 all Events of Default with respect to the Debentures, other than the non-payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), and interest on,
such Debentures which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
  


 - 60 - 









	9.4	Waiver 

 9.4.1 The Holders of not less than a majority of the
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debentures may on behalf of the Holders of all Debentures waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default: 
  

	 	(a)	in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Debentures; or 

  

	 	(b)	in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Article 15 cannot be modified or amended without an Extraordinary Resolution passed by the Holders.


 9.4.2 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
cured, for every purpose of this Indenture. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  

	9.5	Other Remedies 

 9.5.1 If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Indenture Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Debentures or to enforce the performance of any term of the Debentures or this Indenture. 
 9.5.2 The Indenture Trustee may maintain a Proceeding even if it does not possess any Debentures or does not produce any of them in the Proceeding. A delay or omission
by the Indenture Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. 
  

	9.6	Application of Money Collected 

 Any money collected
by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article 9 in respect of Debentures shall (subject to any claims having priority under Applicable Law) be applied in the following order, at the dates fixed by the Indenture Trustee and, in case of the
distribution of such money on account of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of Debentures and the notation thereon of the payment (if only partially paid) and upon surrender thereof (if fully paid):

Debentures; and 

  

	 	(b)	take any other action authorized to be taken by or on behalf of the Holders of any specified aggregate principal amount of Debentures under any provisions of this Indenture or under
Applicable Law. 

 The Indenture Trustee may refuse, however, to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this
Indenture.

provision in this Indenture, the Debentureholder shall have the absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Debenture on the respective Stated Maturity expressed in such
Debenture and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. For greater certainty, it is understood and acknowledged that the acquisition of Debentures by the
Holders and the execution of this Indenture by the Indenture Trustee shall constitute the consent of the Holders to the limitation set out in this Indenture on their right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment under the Debentures.

  

	9.9	Limitation on Suits 

 9.9.1 No Holder of any Debenture will have any
right to pursue any remedy (including any action, suit or proceeding authorized or permitted by this Indenture or pursuant to Applicable Law) with respect to this Indenture or the Debentures unless: (i) the Holder gives to the Indenture Trustee
notice of a continuing Event of Default; (ii) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Debentures make a request in writing to the Indenture Trustee to pursue the remedy; (iii) such Holder or Holders offer or
provide to the Indenture Trustee security and indemnity in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; (iv) the Indenture Trustee does not comply with the request within 30 days after receipt of such
request and indemnity; and (v) during such 30-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Debentures do not give the Indenture Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 
 9.9.2 Holders may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. 
  

 - 62 - 









	9.10 	Collection Suit by Indenture Trustee 

 If an Event
of Default specified in clause (a), (b), (c), or (d) of section 9.1 occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee against the Company for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any)

 The
Indenture Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders lodged or allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the
Company, its creditors or its property. 
  

	9.12 	Undertaking for Costs 

 In any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or
defences made by the party litigant. This subsection 9.12 does not apply to (a) a suit by the Indenture Trustee, (b) a suit by a Holder pursuant to section 9.9, (c) a suit by any Holder or group of Holders of more than 10%
in principal amount of the Outstanding Debentures, or (d) to any suit instituted by any Holder of any Debentures for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any such Debenture, on or after the respective due dates
expressed therein. 
  

	9.13 	Delay or Omission Not Waiver 

 No delay or omission
of the Indenture Trustee or of any Holder of any Debenture to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every
right and remedy given by this Article 9 or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

  

	9.14 	Remedies Cumulative 

 9.14.1 No remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Indenture Trustee or upon or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now existing or hereafter to exist by
law or statute. 
  

	9.15 	Judgment Against the Company 

 9.15.1 The Company covenants and
agrees with the Indenture Trustee that, in case of any Proceeding to obtain judgment for payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, 

  

 - 63 - 








 
if any, on the Debentures, judgment may be rendered against it in favour of the Holders or in favour of the Indenture Trustee, as holder of a power of
attorney for the Holders, for the amount which may remain due in respect of the Debentures and the interest and premium, if any, thereon. 
 ARTICLE 10 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  

	10.1 	Non-Presentation of Debentures 

 If any
Debentureholder fails to present any Debentures for payment on the date on which the principal of, premium, if any, or interest thereon, becomes payable, whether on a Payment Date, Maturity Date or any other repayment date, or shall not accept
payment on account thereof and give such receipt therefor, if any, as the Indenture Trustee may require: 
  

	 	(a)	the Company shall thereafter be entitled to pay or deliver to the Indenture Trustee and direct the Indenture Trustee to set aside; or 

  

	 	(b)	in respect of moneys or Common Shares in the hands of the Indenture Trustee which may or should be applied to the payment of the Debentures, the Company shall thereafter be entitled
to direct the Indenture Trustee to set aside; 

 the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Debentures, in trust to
be paid to such Debentureholder upon due presentation or surrender of such Debentures in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; and thereupon the principal of, premium, if any, and interest payable on each Debenture in respect whereof
such moneys and, if permitted hereunder, Common Shares have been set aside shall be deemed to have been paid and the Holder thereof shall thereafter have no right in respect thereof except to receive delivery and payment of the moneys or Common
Shares, if applicable, so set aside by the Indenture Trustee upon due presentation and surrender thereof, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.5. For greater certainty, the provisions of Article 6 shall not prevent the application of
moneys received by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this subsection 10.1 to the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Debentures. 
  

	10.2 	Discharge 

 The Indenture Trustee shall at the
written request of the Company release and discharge this Indenture and execute and deliver such instruments as it shall be advised by Counsel are requisite for that purpose and release the Company from its covenants herein contained (other than the
provisions relating to the indemnification and compensation of the Indenture Trustee), upon proof being given to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indenture Trustee that the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on (including interest on
amounts in default, if any) all of the Debentures and all other moneys payable hereunder have been paid or satisfied or that, all of the Debentures having matured or having been duly called for payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest (including interest on amounts in default, if any) on such Debentures and all other moneys payable hereunder have been duly and effectively provided for in accordance with the provisions hereof.

certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the

 11.1.2 In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 
 11.1.3 No provision of this Indenture shall be
construed to relieve the Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
  

	 	(a)	this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection 11.1.1;

Indenture; and 

  

	 	(d)	no provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.


  

 - 65 - 








 11.1.4 Whether or not therein expressly so provided , every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.1.

 The Indenture Trustee may, but is
not required to, employ (at the expense of the Company) such Counsel, agents and other assistants as it may reasonably require for the proper determination and discharge of its duties under this Indenture, and shall not be responsible for any
negligence or misconduct on the part of any such Counsel, agent or other assistant or for any liability incurred by any Person as a result of not employing such Counsel, agent or other assistant, and may pay reasonable remuneration for all services

Opinions of Counsel, reports, directions, orders, certificates or Certificates of the Company which by any provisions of this Indenture or the Trust Indenture Act are specifically required to be furnished to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee shall be entitled to so act and so rely only if the Indenture Trustee examines such statutory declarations, Opinions of Counsel, reports, directions, orders, certificates or Certificates of the Company and determines that they conform in all
material respects to the requirements of this Indenture and that they indicate compliance with the applicable requirements of this Indenture (but for greater certainty the Indenture Trustee need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any

the Company and any Affiliate of the Company without being liable to account for any profits made thereby. 
  

	11.8 	Conditions Precedent to Indenture Trustee’s Obligation to Act 

 11.8.1 The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to give any notice, or to do, observe or perform or see to the observance or performance by the Company of any of the obligations imposed under the Indenture or to supervise or interfere with
any of the activities of the Company, or to do or take any act, action or Proceeding by virtue of the powers conferred on it by this Indenture, unless and until it shall have been required to do so under the terms of this Indenture; nor shall the
Indenture Trustee be required to take notice of any default or Event of Default, other than in payment of any moneys required by this Indenture to be paid to the Indenture Trustee, unless and until notified in writing of such default or Event of
Default by the Company or by any Holder, which notice shall distinctly specify the default or Event of Default, and in the absence of any such notice the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that no default or Event of Default has occurred. Any
such notice or requisition shall in no way limit any discretion given to the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture to determine whether or not to take action with respect to any default or Event of Default or with respect to any such requisition.

 11.8.2 No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in
the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligation of the Indenture Trustee to do any of the actions referred to in subsection 11.8.1, including to commence or to continue any Proceeding, shall be conditional upon
the Holders furnishing, when required by notice in writing by the Indenture Trustee, sufficient funds to commence or continue such action and an indemnity satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee to protect and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee
against the costs, charges, expenses and liabilities which may result from such action and any loss and damage the Indenture Trustee may suffer by reason of such action. 
  


 - 68 - 








 11.8.3 Before commencing, or at any time during the continuance of, any Proceeding, the Indenture Trustee may require the
Holders on whose behalf it is acting to deposit with the Indenture Trustee the Debentures held by them, and the Indenture Trustee shall issue receipts for such Debentures. 
  

	11.9 	Indenture Trustee Not Required to Give Security 

 The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to give Security for its conduct or administration under this Indenture. 
  

	11.10 	Resignation or Removal of Indenture Trustee; Conflict of Interest 

 11.10.1 The Indenture Trustee shall comply with the terms of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. If the Indenture Trustee shall acquire a conflicting interest as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the
Indenture Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture, and the Company shall take prompt action to have a successor
Indenture Trustee appointed in the manner provided herein; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply if and to the extent that the requirements for an exemption from the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act set
forth in Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act are met. 
 11.10.2 The Indenture Trustee represents and warrants to the Company that at the time
of the execution and delivery of this Indenture no material conflict of interest exists with respect to the Indenture Trustee’s role as a fiduciary hereunder. 
 11.10.3 The Indenture Trustee may resign as trustee hereunder by giving not less than 60 days’ notice in writing to the Company or such shorter notice as the Company may accept as sufficient. The Indenture Trustee shall resign if a
material conflict of interest arises with respect to its role as trustee under this Indenture that is not eliminated within 90 days after the Indenture Trustee becomes aware of such conflict of interest. Immediately after the Indenture Trustee
becomes aware that it has a material conflict of interest it shall provide the Company with written notice of the nature of that conflict. Upon any such resignation, the Indenture Trustee shall be discharged from all further duties and liabilities
under this Indenture. None of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture or the Debentures shall be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only of the existence of a material conflict of interest on the part of the Indenture Trustee
(whether arising prior to or after the date of this Indenture). If the Indenture Trustee does not comply with this section, any Holder or the Company may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for an order that the Indenture Trustee be replaced
as trustee under this Indenture. 
 11.10.4 In the event of the Indenture Trustee resigning or being removed by the Holders by Extraordinary Resolution or by
the Company or being dissolved, becoming insolvent or bankrupt, going into liquidation or otherwise becoming incapable of acting as trustee under this Indenture, the Company shall immediately appoint a successor Indenture Trustee unless a successor
Indenture Trustee has already been appointed by the Holders; failing such appointment by the Company, the retiring Indenture Trustee or any other Holder may apply to a court of 

  

 - 69 - 








 
competent jurisdiction , on such notice as such judge may direct, for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. The successor Indenture Trustee so
appointed by the Company or by such court shall be subject to removal by the Holders by way of an Act of Holders. Any successor Indenture Trustee appointed under any provision of this section shall be eligible under the Trust Indenture Act. On any
appointment of the successor Indenture Trustee, the successor Indenture Trustee shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named in this Indenture as Indenture Trustee. The expenses of all
acts, documents and Proceedings required under this section will be paid by the Company in the same manner as if the amount thereof were fees payable to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. 
 11.10.5 Any successor Indenture Trustee shall, immediately upon appointment, become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of its predecessor
in the trusts under this Indenture, with like effect as if originally named as Indenture Trustee hereunder. Nevertheless, upon the written request of the successor Indenture Trustee or of the Company and upon payment of all outstanding fees and
expenses, the Indenture Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver a document assigning and transferring to such successor Indenture Trustee, upon the trusts expressed in this Indenture, all the rights, powers and trusts of the Indenture
Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all property (including money) held by such Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee in its place. Should any deed, conveyance or other document in writing from the
Company be required by any successor Indenture Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts, then any and all such deeds, conveyances and other documents in writing shall,
on the request of the successor Indenture Trustee, be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company. 
 11.10.6 Any corporation into which the
Indenture Trustee is amalgamated or with which it is consolidated or to which all or substantially all of its corporate trust business is sold or is otherwise transferred or any corporation resulting from any consolidation or amalgamation to which
the Indenture Trustee is a party shall be a successor Indenture Trustee under this Indenture, without the execution of any document or any further act; provided that such successor Indenture Trustee is a corporation that is qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act, and (c) does not have a material conflict of interest in its role as a fiduciary under this Indenture. 
  

	11.11 	Authority to Carry on Business; Resignation 

 11.11.1 The Indenture
Trustee represents and warrants to the Company that at the date of execution and delivery by it of this Indenture it is authorized to carry on the business of a trust corporation and is eligible under the Trust Indenture Act to act as Trustee under
this Indenture. If the Indenture Trustee ceases to be so authorized or eligible, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and the Debentures issued hereunder shall not be affected in any manner by reason only of such event but the Indenture
Trustee shall, within 90 days after ceasing to be eligible to act as Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act, either become so authorized or eligible or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in section 11.10. 
 11.11.2 The Indenture Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, including the requirement that the Indenture
Trustee shall have a 

  

 - 70 - 








 
combined capital and surplus of at least $150,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
  

	11.12 	Protection of Indenture Trustee 

 11.12.1 By way of supplement to
any Applicable Law from time to time relating to trustees and in addition to any other provision of this Indenture for the relief of the Indenture Trustee, it is expressly agreed that no provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the
Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct or bad faith, except that: 
  

	 	(a)	this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Sections 11.1 or 11.3; 

  

	 	(b)	the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for or by reason of any statements of fact or recitals in this Indenture or in the Debentures (except the representations and warranties
contained in the last sentence of subsection 2.8.4 and in sections 11.1 11.10, 11.11 and 11.13 which are being given by the Indenture Trustee in its personal capacity) or required to verify the same, but all such statements or recitals are and
shall be deemed to be made by the Company; 

  

	 	(c)	the Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to give to any Person notice of the execution of this Indenture unless and until an Event of Default and a declaration of acceleration has
occurred, and the Indenture Trustee has determined or become obliged to enforce the same; 

  

	 	(d)	the Indenture Trustee shall not incur any liability or be in any way responsible for the consequence of any breach on the part of the Company of any of the covenants contained in
this Indenture or of any acts of the agents or servants of the Company; 

  

	 	(e)	 the Company indemnifies and saves harmless the Indenture Trustee and its officers, directors and employees and Agents from and against any and all liabilities,
losses, costs, damages, claims, actions, expenses (including legal fees and disbursements on a solicitor and client basis) or demands whatsoever which may be brought against the Indenture Trustee or which it may suffer or incur as a result of or
arising out of the performance of its duties and obligations under this Indenture and/or the exercise of its rights hereunder, including those arising out of or related to actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Indenture Trustee contemplated by
this Indenture, and including legal fees and disbursements on a solicitor and client basis and costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of this indemnity, but excluding loss of profit, which the Indenture Trustee may suffer or
incur, whether at law or in equity, in any way caused by or arising, directly or indirectly, in respect of any act, deed, matter or thing whatsoever made, done, acquiesced in or omitted in or about or in relation to the execution of its duties and
exercise of its rights hereunder as Indenture Trustee, save only in the event of the negligence in acting or failing to act, or the wilful misconduct or bad faith of the Indenture Trustee. It is understood and agreed that 



  

 - 71 - 









	 	 
this indemnification shall survive the termination or discharge of this Indenture, or the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee, or the repayment
of the Debentures; 


  

	 	(f)	without limiting the generality of section 11.12.1(e), the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee and upon written request reimburse the Indenture
Trustee for the amount of (i) any taxes levied or imposed and paid by the Indenture Trustee as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Debentures, (ii) any liability (including penalties and interest) arising therefrom or
with respect thereto paid by the Indenture Trustee as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Debentures, (iii) any liability (including penalties and interest) arising from a Common Share Interest Payment Election, provided that

Indenture Trustee with respect to reimbursement under (i), (ii) and (iii) above, but excluding any taxes on the Indenture Trustee’s net income arising from fees for acting as the trustee hereunder or in respect of the Indenture
Trustee’s capital; 

  

	 	(g)	the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable by reason of the statements or implications of fact or law contained in or arising out of anything contained in this Indenture or any
Offering Document or in the Debentures or be required to verify the same, but all statements or implications shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to the validity or
sufficiency of this Indenture, any Offering Document, or the Debentures; 

  

	 	(h)	the Indenture Trustee may, in the exercise of all or any of the trusts, powers and discretions vested in it under this Indenture, act by the Responsible Officers of the Indenture
Trustee; the Indenture Trustee may delegate to any Person the performance of any of the trusts and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and any delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions and subject to such regulations as the Indenture
Trustee may think to be in the best interest of the Holders; 

  

	 	(i)	the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or actual knowledge of any matter under this Indenture, unless the Indenture Trustee shall
have received from the Company or a Holder written notice stating the matter in respect of which the Indenture Trustee should have notice or actual knowledge; 

  

	 	(j)	the Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to act in accordance with any direction or request of the Company until an executed copy of the document containing the direction or request
has been delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee shall be fully empowered to act and shall be fully protected from all liability in acting upon any such document believed by the Indenture Trustee to be genuine;


  

 - 72 - 









	 	(k)	the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any error made or act done by it resulting from reliance upon the signature of any Person on behalf of the Company or of any

 ARTICLE 16 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
  

	16.1 	Money for Payments to be Held in Trust 

 16.1.1 If the Company shall
at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to the Debentures, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, or any premium or interest on, the Debentures, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium and interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and the Company will promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of its
action or failure so to act. 
 16.1.2 Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the Debentures, it will, prior to each due date of the
principal of, or any premium or interest on, any Debentures, deposit with any such Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium (if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such principal, premium (if any) or interest thereon and (unless such Paying Agent is the Indenture Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 16.1.3 The Company will cause each Paying Agent for the Debentures, other than the Indenture Trustee, to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in
which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: (a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the
Debentures in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; (b) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Debentures) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on 

  

 - 85 - 








 
the Debentures; and (c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the
Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Debentures. 
 16.1.4 The Company may at any time, for the
purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Debentures or for any other purpose, pay, or the Company may by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust
by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee,
such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 
 16.1.5 Any money deposited with the Indenture Trustee or any
Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, or any premium or interest on, the Debentures and remaining unclaimed for the lesser of (i) two years, or (ii) the period ending 30 days before the
date on which such amount would escheat to a Governmental Authority under Applicable Law, after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request (including interest income accrued on such
funds, if any), or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holders of the Debentures shall thereafter, as unsecured general creditors, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the
Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make
any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once in the Wall Street Journal and once in the national edition of The Globe and Mail or other daily newspapers of national circulation in each of the United States and
Canada or mail to each Debentureholder for which the money to be repaid is held in trust, as their names and addresses appear in the register maintained by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to subsection 2.15.1, a notice that such money remains
unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
 16.1.6 The Company initially authorizes and appoints the Indenture Trustee to act as Paying Agent for the Debentures on its behalf. The Company may at any time and from
time to time authorize and appoint one or more Persons to act as Paying Agent in addition to or in place of the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures issued under this Indenture, and in such event shall forthwith provide written notice to
the Indenture Trustee of such authorization and appointment. 
  

	16.2 	Submission to Jurisdiction 

 16.2.1 Any suit, action or proceeding
against the Company or its properties, assets or revenues with respect to this Indenture or the Debentures (a “Related Proceeding”) may be brought in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York, as the Person bringing such Related Proceeding may elect in its sole discretion. The Company hereby consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of each such court for the purpose of any
Related Proceeding and has irrevocably 

  

 - 86 - 








 
waived any objection to the laying of venue of any Related Proceeding brought in any such court to the fullest extent it may effectively do so and to the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Related Proceeding or any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court. The Company has agreed that service of all writs, claims, process and summonses in any Related Proceeding brought
against it in the State of New York may be made upon the Company at its principal business office in Denver, Colorado. Nothing in this Indenture shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability to serve any such writs, process or summonses in any
other manner permitted by applicable law. 
 16.2.2 To the extent that the Company has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court
or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or execution, on the ground of sovereignty or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, it hereby irrevocably waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Indenture or the Debentures. 
 16.2.3 All Parties
hereto hereby irrevocably waive all rights to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Indenture, the Debentures or the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby. 
  

	16.3 	Judgment Currency 

 If a judgment or order given or
made by any court for the payment of any amount in respect of any Debenture is expressed in a currency (the “judgment currency”) other than the currency (the “denomination currency”) in which such Debentures are
denominated or in which such amount is payable, the Company will indemnify the relevant Holder against any deficiency arising or resulting from any variation in rates of exchange published by The Bank of New York between the date as of which the
amount in the denomination currency is notionally converted into the amount in the judgment currency for the purposes of such judgment or order and the date of actual payment thereof. This indemnity will constitute a separate and independent
obligation from the other obligations contained in the terms and conditions of the Debentures, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted from time to time and will continue in
full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due in respect of the relevant Debenture or under any such judgment or order. 
  

	16.4 	Acceptance of Trusts 

 The Company and the Indenture
Trustee hereby specifically acknowledge and agree that the Indenture Trustee is acting hereunder in its capacity as the Person holding the power of attorney of the Holders for the purposes of this Indenture and in conformity with and subject to the
terms and conditions of this Indenture. Each Holder of Debentures, by its acceptance thereof, accepts and confirms the appointment of the Indenture Trustee as the Person holding the power of attorney of such Holder for the purposes of this Indenture
and in conformity with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture. 
  

 - 87 - 









	16.5 	Protection of Trustee 

 The Indenture Trustee shall
not be obligated under any circumstances whatsoever in the fulfillment of any of the circumstances and obligations hereunder, to expend or risk its funds or otherwise incur financial liability. 
  

	16.6 	Amendments to the Income Tax Act 

 All provisions in
this Indenture requiring that the only shares issuable on conversion of the Debentures shall be shares that are “prescribed securities” as defined in section 6208 of the regulations to the Income Tax Act (Canada) shall have no force
or effect commencing on the date that proposed amendments to paragraph 212(1)(b) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) apply to generally exempt Part XIII tax from being imposed under the Income Tax Act (Canada) on payments of interest by a
resident of Canada to a person with whom the resident deals at arm’s length. 
  

	16.7 	Further Assurances 

 Upon reasonable request of the
Indenture Trustee, or as otherwise necessary, the Company shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture. 

 

	16.8 	Counterparts and Formal Date 

 This Indenture may be
executed in any number of counterparts (including counterparts by facsimile), each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument and notwithstanding their date of
execution shall be deemed to bear a date as of the date hereof.

 [For the purposes of a Debenture issued to a resident of Canada, including a Global Debenture: 
 UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE MARCH 9, 2008.] 
 Golden Star Resources Ltd. (the “Company”), for value received, hereby acknowledges itself indebted and promises to pay to the
order of the registered holder on November 30, 2012 (the “Maturity Date”), or on such earlier date as the principal amount hereof may become due in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture hereinafter mentioned and
defined, the principal sum of 
  

 - A-2 - 








 [insert amount] 
 in lawful money of the United States of America, on presentation and surrender of this Debenture at the principal
office of the Indenture Trustee (defined below) in the manner specified in the Indenture, in the City of New York, State of New York, and to pay interest on the principal amount hereof to the Holder of record on the 15th Business Day of May and November in each year, as the case may be, at the rate of 4.0% per annum from and including the Issue Date or from and including the most recent
Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or made available for payment on the Debentures then outstanding, whichever is later, to but excluding the next Interest Payment Date, in like money in equal semi-annual installments in arrears
on the last day of May and November in each year (each such date an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing May 31, 2008 with overdue interest, if any, at the same rate after as well as before maturity and after as well as before
default in payment of principal or interest. The May 31, 2008 interest payment will represent accrued interest from and including the Issue Date to but excluding May 31, 2008. 
 The rate at which interest shall be payable on the principal amount hereof shall be increased to 4.5% if (a) the Company does not file, within 45
days of the first issuance of the Debentures, a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-3 (or such other form as may be reasonably determined by U.S. counsel to the Company) and a short form prospectus
filed with the applicable Governmental Authorities in all provinces of Canada with the exception of Quebec, which qualifies for resale (i) in the United States, the Debentures, and (ii) in the United States and the above-described
provinces of Canada, the Common Shares (including any Additional Shares) issuable upon the conversion of the Debentures, or (b) such registration statement does not become effective no later than 90 days after the first issuance of the
Debentures, as required by and in the manner prescribed in the Registration Rights Agreement. Such increased interest rate shall apply until the date on which such obligation is met in accordance with the provisions of the Registration Rights
Agreement 
 As interest on this Debenture becomes due, the Company (subject to early repurchase or conversion pursuant to the terms of the
Indenture) shall forward or cause to be forwarded by courier or ordinary post to the registered address of the registered Holder of the Debenture for the time being, or in the case of joint Holders to the registered address of any one of such joint
Holders, or in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository if this is a Book-Entry Only Debenture, electronic funds transfer for such interest, payable to the order of such Holder or Holders. The forwarding of such electronic funds
transfer shall satisfy and discharge the liability for interest on this Debenture to the extent of the sum represented thereby. 
 This Debenture is one of the 4.0% Convertible Senior Unsecured Debentures due November 30, 2012 (the “Debentures”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $125,000,000 in lawful money of the United States
created and issued under a Trust Indenture (the “Indenture”) dated as of November 8, 2007 made between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”). Reference is hereby made to the
Indenture for a description of the rights of the Holders of the Debentures, the Company and the Indenture Trustee and of the terms and conditions upon which the Debentures are issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the
Indenture were herein set forth, to all of which provisions the Holder of this Debenture, by acceptance hereof, agrees. To the extent that the terms and 

  

 - A-3 - 








 
conditions stated in this Debenture conflict with the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the latter shall prevail. All capitalized terms used
herein have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. 
 The Debentures are issuable as fully registered
Debentures in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The Debentures of any authorized denomination may be exchanged, as provided in the Indenture, for Debentures in equal aggregate principal amount. The Debentures may only be
transferred in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 upon delivery of a form of assignment in the form attached hereto as Appendix II. 
 This Debenture and all other Debentures authenticated and issued under the Indenture rank pari passu with one another, in accordance to their tenor without discrimination, preference or priority. The Indenture
does not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the Company’s ability to pay dividends, incur indebtedness or issue or repurchase securities. 
 Subject to regulatory approval, the Company may, at its option, upon not less than 40 days and not more than 60 days prior notice, repay the principal amount of the outstanding Debentures at Maturity by issuing and
delivering, for each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, that number of Freely Tradable Common Shares equal to the number obtained by dividing such principal amount of Debentures by 95% of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the
Maturity Date; provided, however, that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. No fractional Common Shares will be delivered to the Holders of Debentures upon such share redemption, but in lieu thereof, if such a fraction shall
become owing, the Company will make an equivalent cash payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate number of Common Shares contemplated to be so issued, combined with any Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Debentures prior to the
Maturity Date, may not exceed 19.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as of the date of the Indenture, unless the Company obtains (i) additional listing approval for the Common Shares to be so issued, if required, from the AMEX, the
TSX and/or any other relevant Recognized Stock Exchange, as applicable, (ii) consent for the issuance of such Common Shares from the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures Outstanding at the time
such consent is solicited. The balance of the amount payable at Maturity that is not repaid by the issuance of Common Shares (the value of such Common Shares being calculated by multiplying the number of Common Shares so issued by 95% of the Current
Market Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date), shall be paid in cash. 
 Each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures is convertible
at any time and from time to time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding Maturity or the Payment Date, at the option of the Holder, into that number of Common Shares obtained by dividing $1,000 by the conversion
price of $5.00 per Common Share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the Indenture. No fractional Common Shares will be delivered to the Holders of Debentures upon conversion, but in lieu thereof, if such a
fraction shall become owing, the Company will make an equivalent cash payment. The accrued and unpaid interest on any Debentures so converted shall be paid in cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the
Indenture, the Company shall not effect any conversion of the Debenture and the Holder shall not have the right to convert the Debenture in excess of that portion of the principal amount thereof that, upon giving effect to 

  

 - A-4 - 








 
such conversion, would cause the aggregate number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates to exceed 4.99% of the total
outstanding Common Shares following such conversion (or 9.99% of the total outstanding Common Shares following such conversion if the Holder delivers the Conversion Notice at least 61 days before the Conversion Date). The foregoing limitations shall
not apply to the Common Shares issuable on the Maturity of the Debentures, or to the Additional Shares (as defined below). 
 Upon the giving
of notice by the Indenture Trustee of the occurrence of an Event of Default and declaration of acceleration made in accordance with the Indenture, the Debentures will become immediately due and payable. 
 The Company must commence, within 30 days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, an Offer to Purchase for all Debentures then Outstanding. The Offer
to Purchase shall be made at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the Payment Date. An Offer to Purchase shall be open for at least 20 Business Days and
the Payment Date shall be the Business Day following the expiry of the Offer to Purchase. 
 If 10% or more of the fair market value of the
consideration for Common Shares in a Change of Control transaction consists of cash (a “Cash Transaction”), Debentureholders may, prior to the effective date of such transaction (the “Effective Date”), elect to
convert their Debentures, in which case they shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of Common Shares to which they would otherwise have been entitled on conversion, an additional number of Common Shares (“Additional
Shares”) determined by reference to the table set out in Schedule “D” to the Indenture based on the Effective Date of the Cash Transaction and the Common Share Price. 
 Any payments made by or on behalf of the Company under or with respect to the Debentures will be made free and clear of and without withholding or
deduction for or on account of any Taxes, unless the Company or any other payor is required to withhold or deduct Taxes by Applicable Law or by the interpretation or administration thereof by the relevant Governmental Authority. If the Company is so
required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Debentures, the Company will make such withholding or deduction and will remit the full amount withheld or deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority as and when required by Applicable Law and the Company will pay such Additional Amounts as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder of Debentures (including Additional Amounts) after such
withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to any payment to an Excluded
Holder. 
 Subject to receiving applicable regulatory approvals, the Company shall have the right to elect, from time to time, to issue and
deliver Common Shares to a broker or dealer duly registered under the applicable securities laws (the “Broker-Dealer”) for sale in the open market or deliver Common Share bid requests to the investment banks, brokers or dealers
identified by the Company in its absolute discretion to satisfy its Interest Obligation on each Interest Payment Date. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon such election by the 

  

 - A-5 - 








 
Company, the Broker-Dealer shall have the power to (i) accept delivery of the Common Shares from the Company and process the Common Shares in accordance
with the Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice, (ii) accept bids with respect to, and consummate sales of, such Common Shares, each as the Company shall direct in its absolute discretion, through the investment banks, brokers or dealers
identified by the Company in the Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice, (iii) sell Common Shares in the open market on a Recognized Stock Exchange, (iv) deliver the proceeds of such sales to the Indenture Trustee to be held and
disbursed in accordance with Article 7 of the Indenture and (v) perform any other action necessarily incidental thereto. Upon receipt of the proceeds of the sales of Common Shares from the Broker-Dealer, the Indenture Trustee shall invest
such proceeds on the written direction of the Company in U.S. Government Obligations which mature at least three Business Days prior to an applicable Interest Payment Date and/or use such proceeds to pay all or part of the Interest Obligation in
respect of which the Common Share Interest Payment Election was made, and perform any other action necessarily incidental thereto. The amount received by a Holder in respect of the Interest Obligation will not be affected by whether or not the
Company elects to satisfy the Interest Obligation pursuant to a Common Share Interest Payment Election. 
 The Indenture contains provisions
for the holding of meetings of Debentureholders and rendering certain resolutions passed at such meetings by, or by instruments in writing signed by, the Holders of the majority (or, in certain cases, 75% or the consent of each Debentureholder who
is affected thereby) in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures Outstanding binding upon all Debentureholders, subject to the provisions of the Indenture. 
 This Debenture may only be transferred upon compliance with Applicable Securities Laws and the conditions precedent in the Indenture on the register kept at the principal office of the Indenture Trustee and at such
other place or places, if any, and/or by such other registrar or registrars, if any, as the Company with the approval of the Indenture Trustee may designate, and may be exchanged at any such place, by the Holder hereof or his executors or
administrators or other legal representatives or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and execution satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, and upon compliance with such reasonable requirements as the Indenture
Trustee and/or registrar may prescribe, and such transfer shall be duly noted thereon by the Indenture Trustee or other registrar. 
 This
Debenture shall not become obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been authenticated by the Indenture Trustee for the time being under the Indenture. 
 This Debenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 The Holder of this Debenture, by receiving and holding same, hereby accepts and agrees to be bound by the terms, and to be entitled to the benefits of this Debenture and of the Indenture and confirms the appointment of the Indenture Trustee
and of the Indenture, the whole in accordance with and subject to the respective provisions thereof.

 FORM OF MATURITY NOTICE 
 GOLDEN STAR RESOURCES LTD. 
 4.0% CONVERTIBLE SENIOR UNSECURED DEBENTURES DUE NOVEMBER 30, 2012 
 MATURITY NOTICE 
  

			
	To:	  	Holders of 4.0% Convertible Senior Unsecured Debentures due November 30, 2012 (the “Debentures”) of Golden Star Resources Ltd. (the
“Company”)
		
	Note:	  	All capitalized terms used herein have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Indenture mentioned below, unless otherwise indicated.

 Notice is hereby given pursuant to section 5.2 of the Indenture dated as of November 8,
2007 (the “Indenture”) made between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”), that the Debentures will become due and payable on <*> (the “Maturity Date”) and
that each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures remains convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, into Common Shares at the Conversion Price then in effect. 
 Pursuant to section 5.2 of the Indenture, the Company hereby advises the Holders of Debentures that it will deliver to Holders of Debentures who have not elected to convert their Debentures into Common Shares prior to
the Maturity Date that number of Freely Tradable Common Shares equal to the number obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Debentures by 95% of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date. The Current Market Price as
at the Maturity Date shall be the Weighted Average Trading Price of the Common Shares on the AMEX for the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending five Trading Days prior to such date (the “Maturity Shares”). 
 The Company certifies as follows [Company to check one]: 
  

	 ̈	The number of Maturity Shares to be issued pursuant to this notice, when combined with the aggregate number of Common Shares issued upon conversion prior to the date hereof and
expected to be issued prior to Maturity, does not exceed 19.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on the date of the Indenture (the “Exchange Cap”). 

  

	 ̈	The number of Maturity Shares to be issued pursuant to this notice, when combined with the aggregate number of Common Shares issued upon conversion prior to the date hereof and
expected to be issued prior to Maturity, exceeds the Exchange Cap (the “Excess Shares”), and (i) the stockholders of the Company, and, if required, the AMEX, the TSX and any other relevant Recognized Stock Exchange, as
applicable, and (ii) the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Debentures, have approved issuance of the Excess Shares. 

  

	 ̈	 The number of Maturity Shares to be issued pursuant to this notice, when combined with the aggregate number of Common Shares issued upon conversion prior to the
date hereof and expected to be issued prior to Maturity, exceeds the Exchange Cap. The Company will issue to Holders of Debentures on a pro rata basis the number of Common Shares permissible pursuant to the Exchange Cap (the “Maximum
Shares”), and will pay in 











	 	 
cash to the Holders the difference between the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debentures as of the Maturity Date and the value of Maximum
Shares issued pursuant to this Notice (calculated by multiplying the number of Maximum Shares to be issued by 95% of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date). 


 Upon presentation and surrender of the Debentures, the Company shall pay or cause to be paid in cash to the Holder all accrued and unpaid interest to the
Maturity Date, together with the cash equivalent representing fractional Common Shares, and shall, on the Maturity Date, send to the Indenture Trustee certificates representing the Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled.
