Nothing contained in this Section 2.6.1 shall be construed as authorizing the General Partner to amend this Agreement except in accordance with Article 14 or as may be otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement.  2.6.2The foregoing power of attorney is hereby declared to be irrevocable and a power coupled with an interest, and it shall survive and not be affected by the subsequent death, incompetency, disability, incapacity, dissolution, bankruptcy or termination of any Limited Partner and the transfer of all or any portion of such Limited Partners Partnership Interest and shall extend to such Limited Partners heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives. Each such Limited Partner hereby agrees to be bound by any representation made by the General Partner or the Liquidator acting in good faith pursuant to such power of attorney; and each such Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses that may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the General Partner or the Liquidator taken in good faith under such power of attorney. Each Limited Partner shall execute and deliver to the General Partner or the Liquidator, within 15 days after receipt of the General Partners or the Liquidators request therefor, such further designation, powers of attorney and other instruments as the General Partner or the Liquidator deems necessary to effectuate this Agreement and the purposes of the Partnership.  2.7Term  The Partnership commenced upon the formation of the Partnership on May 21, 2007, pursuant to the Initial Limited Partnership Agreement and the Certificate of Limited Partnership and shall continue in perpetual existence until the termination of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.1.  ARTICLE 3 CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND ISSUANCE OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS  3.1General  In connection with the formation of the Partnership, the General Partner was admitted as the General Partner of the Partnership and the Initial Limited Partner was admitted as a Limited Partner as of the date of the Initial Limited Partnership Agreement.  3.2Initial Capital Contributions by the General Partner and the Initial Limited Partner  The General Partner made a Capital Contribution of $1 to the Partnership. The Initial Limited Partner made a Capital Contribution of $1 to the Partnership.  13


3.3The Reorganization and Spin-Off  3.3.1In connection with the transactions involved in the Reorganization, additional Capital Contributions were made and additional Limited Partners were admitted to the Partnership.  3.3.2In connection with the Spin-Off and following the execution of the First Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, each BAM Shareholder received and accepted a portion of the Equity Units held by the Initial Limited Partner on the Closing Date in proportion to its holding of BAM Shares whereupon such BAM Shareholder was admitted as a Limited Partner of the Partnership subject to and in accordance with Section 11.1.  3.4Interest and Withdrawal  No interest on Capital Contributions shall be paid by the Partnership. No Partner shall be entitled to the withdrawal or return of its Capital Contribution, except to the extent, if any, that distributions made pursuant to this Agreement or upon dissolution of the Partnership may be considered as such by law and then only to the extent provided for in this Agreement. Except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, no Partner shall have priority over any other Partner either as to the return of Capital Contributions or as to profits, losses or distributions.  3.5Issuances of Additional Partnership Interests  3.5.1Subject to the terms of any Preferred Units then Outstanding, the Partnership may issue additional Partnership Interests (including new classes of Partnership Interests) and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to such Partnership Interests or class of Partnership Interests for any Partnership purpose (including in connection with any distribution reinvestment plan or the Redemption-Exchange Mechanism) at any time and from time to time to such Persons for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as the General Partner shall determine in its sole discretion, all without the approval of any Limited Partners.  3.5.2Each additional Partnership Interest authorized to be issued by the Partnership pursuant to Section 3.5.1 may be issued in one or more classes, or one or more series of any such classes, with such designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties (which may be senior to existing classes and series of Partnership Interests), as shall be fixed by the General Partner in its sole discretion, including (i) the right to share in Partnership profits and losses or items thereof; (ii) the right to share in Partnership distributions; (iii) the rights upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; (iv) whether, and the terms and conditions upon which, the Partnership may or shall be required to redeem the Partnership Interest (including sinking fund provisions); (v) whether such Partnership Interest is issued with the privilege of conversion or exchange and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange; (vi) the terms and conditions upon which each Partnership Interest will be issued, evidenced by certificates and  14


assigned or transferred; and (viii) the requirement, if any, of each such Partnership Interest to consent to certain partnership matters.  3.5.3The General Partner is hereby authorized to take all actions that it determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with each issuance of Partnership Interests and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests pursuant to this Section 3.5, including the admission of additional Limited Partners in connection therewith and any related amendment of this Agreement, and all additional issuances of Partnership Interests and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests. The General Partner is authorized to do all things that it determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with any future issuance of Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests, including compliance with any statute, rule, regulation or guideline of any governmental agency or any Securities Exchange on which the Units or other Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests are listed for trading.  3.6Pre-emptive Rights  Unless otherwise determined by the General Partner, in its sole discretion, no Person shall have any pre-emptive, preferential or other similar right with respect to the issuance of any Partnership Interest, whether unissued, held in the treasury or hereafter created.  3.7Splits and Combinations  3.7.1Subject to Section 3.7.4, the Partnership may make a distribution of Partnership Interests to all Record Holders pro rata to their Percentage Interests or may effect a subdivision or combination of Partnership Interests so long as, after any such event, each Partner shall have the same Percentage Interest in the Partnership as before such event.  3.7.2Whenever such a distribution, subdivision or combination of Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests is declared, the General Partner shall select a Record Date as of which the distribution, subdivision or combination shall be effective and shall send notice thereof at least 20 days prior to such Record Date to each Record Holder as of a date not less than 10 days prior to the date of such notice. The General Partner also may cause independent public accountants of international standing selected by it to calculate the number of Partnership Interests to be held by each Record Holder after giving effect to such distribution, subdivision or combination. The General Partner shall be entitled to rely on any certificate provided by such firm as conclusive evidence of the accuracy of such calculation.  3.7.3Promptly following any such distribution, subdivision or combination, the Partnership may issue Certificates to the Record Holders of Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests  15


as of the applicable Record Date representing the new number of Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests held by such Record Holders, or the General Partner may adopt such other procedures that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to reflect such changes. If any such combination results in a smaller total number of Partnership Interests Outstanding or outstanding options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests, the Partnership shall require, as a condition to the delivery to a Record Holder of any such new Certificate, the surrender of any Certificate held by such Record Holder immediately prior to such Record Date.  3.7.4The Partnership shall not be required to issue fractional Units upon any distribution, subdivision or combination of Units. If a distribution, subdivision or combination of Units would result in the issuance of fractional Units but for the provisions of this Section 3.7.4, each fractional Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole Unit, with each half Unit being rounded to the next higher Unit.  3.8Fully Paid and Non-Assessable Nature of Units  All Units issued pursuant to, and in accordance with the requirements of this Article 3 shall be fully paid and non-assessable Units in the Partnership.  ARTICLE 4 ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS  4.1Allocations for Tax Purposes  4.1.1For United States federal income tax purposes, allocations of items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit for each taxable year or other relevant period of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partnerspro rata to their respective Percentage Interests, except to the extent (i) that any such allocations would not have substantial economic effect or are not in accordance with the Partners interests in the Partnership (in each case, as determined pursuant to Section 704(b) of the Code) or (ii) otherwise required by applicable law or by reason of tax elections made by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership, and, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), the General Partner shall adjust allocations as necessary so as to comply with the requirements of Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, relevant provisions of law, or elections made by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership (as applicable); provided, however, that any such adjustments shall be made in the sole discretion of the General Partner. In furtherance of the foregoing, and for purposes of the proper administration of the Partnership and in order to preserve the uniformity of the Units, the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may (i) make such changes to the allocations as the General Partner deems necessary to (x) reflect the proposal, amendment or promulgation of Treasury Regulations under Section 704 of the Code or (y) otherwise preserve the uniformity of the Units, and (ii) adopt, employ or otherwise modify such  16


conventions and methods as the General Partner determines to be appropriate for (a) the determination of the identities and tax classification of the Partners, (b) the valuation of Assets and the determination of the tax bases thereof, (c) the allocation of asset values and tax bases, (d) the adoption and maintenance of tax accounting methods and tax elections, and (e) the determination of allocations of items between transferors and transferees of Units, including the adoption of monthly, quarterly or other conventions that are consistent with Section 706 of the Code. The source and character of items of income, gain, loss and deduction allocated to a Partner will be the same source and character as the income or gain earned or the loss or deduction incurred by the Partnership.  4.1.2The Income for Canadian Tax Purposes for a given fiscal year of the Partnership will be allocated to each Partner in an amount calculated by multiplying the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the distributions received by such Partner with respect to such fiscal year and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the distributions made by the Partnership to Partners with respect to such fiscal year, provided that the numerator and denominator will not include any distributions on the Preferred Units that are in satisfaction of accrued distributions on the Preferred Units that were not paid in a previous fiscal year of the Partnership where the General Partner determines that the inclusion of such distributions would result in a Preferred Unitholder being allocated more income than it would have been if the distributions were paid in the fiscal year of the Partnership in which they were accrued. Generally, the source and character of items of income so allocated to a Partner with respect to a fiscal year of the Partnership will be the same source and character as the distributions received by such Partner with respect to such fiscal year. If, with respect to a given fiscal year, no distribution is made by the Partnership or the Partnership has a Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, one quarter of the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes or the Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, as the case may be, for such fiscal year, will be allocated to the Partners of record at the end of each Quarter ending in such fiscal year as follows: (i) to the Preferred Unitholders in respect of Preferred Units held by them on each such date, such amount of the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes or the Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, as the case may be, as the General Partner determines is reasonable in the circumstances having regard to such factors as the General Partner considers to be relevant, including, without limitation, the relative amount of capital contributed to the Partnership on the issuance of Preferred Units as compared to all other Units and the relative fair market value of the Preferred Units as compared to all other Units, and (ii) to the Partners other than in respect of Preferred Units, the remaining amount of the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes of the Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, as the case may be, pro rata to their respective Percentage Interests on each such date. To such end, any Person who was a Partner at any time during such fiscal year but who has disposed of all of such Persons Units before the last day of that fiscal year may be deemed to be a Partner on the last day of such fiscal year for the purposes of subsection 96(1) of the Income Tax Act. Generally, the source and character of such income or losses so allocated to a Partner at the end of each Quarter will be the same source and  17


character as the income or loss earned or incurred by the Partnership in such Quarter. In furtherance of the foregoing, the General Partner may adjust allocations of items that would otherwise be made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to the extent necessary to avoid an adverse effect on the Limited Partners, subject to the approval of an Independent Committee.  4.2Currency Translation  Allocations of amounts other than in U.S. Dollars shall be undertaken following translation into U.S. Dollars by the General Partner on such date as the General Partner deems appropriate, using rates quoted by appropriate financial institutions of repute or by internationally recognized financial publications or news services to fix the rate of translation.  4.3Distributions  The General Partner may in its sole discretion make distributions at any time or from time to time to the Preferred Unitholders in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to the terms of any Preferred Units then Outstanding, the General Partner may in its sole discretion make distributions at any time or from time to time to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests, provided that all such distributions to the Limited Partners shall be paid by the Partnership directly or through the Transfer Agent or through any other Person or agent only to the Record Holders pro rata according to their respective Percentage Interests as of the Record Date set for such distribution. The payment of any distributions in accordance with this Agreement shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Partnerships liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise. The amount of Taxes withheld or paid by the Partnership or another member of the BIP Group in respect of a Partnership Interest held by a Partner shall be treated either as a distribution to such Partner or as a general expense of the Partnership, as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, and the General Partner shall report to the Partners on an annual basis the amount of such Taxes withheld or paid.  4.4Prohibition on Distributions  The General Partner shall not cause the Partnership to make any distribution pursuant to this Article 4:  4.4.1unless there is sufficient cash available therefor;  4.4.2which would render the Partnership unable to pay its debts as and when they fall due; or  4.4.3which, in the opinion of the General Partner, would or might leave the Partnership with insufficient funds to meet any future or contingent obligations.  18


ARTICLE 5 MANAGEMENT AND OPERATION OF PARTNERSHIP  5.1Management  5.1.1The General Partner shall conduct, direct and manage all activities of the Partnership. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all management powers over the activities and affairs of the Partnership shall be exclusively vested in the General Partner, and no Limited Partner shall have any management power over the activities and affairs of the Partnership. In addition to the powers now or hereafter granted a general partner of a limited partnership under applicable law or that are granted to the General Partner under any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner, subject to Section 5.2, shall have full power and authority to do all things and on such terms as it determines, in its sole discretion, to be necessary or appropriate to conduct the activities and affairs of the Partnership, to exercise all powers set forth in Section 2.3 and to effectuate the purposes set forth in Section 2.2.  5.1.2In exercising its authority under this Agreement, the General Partner may, but shall be under no obligation to, take into account the tax consequences to any Partner (including the General Partner) of any action taken (or not taken) by it. The General Partner and the Partnership shall not have any liability to a Limited Partner for monetary damages or otherwise for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived by such Limited Partner in connection with such decisions so long as the General Partner has acted pursuant to its authority under this Agreement.  5.1.3Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Limited Partnership Act, the Exempted Partnerships Act or any applicable law, rule or regulation, each of the Partners and each other Person who may acquire a Partnership Interest hereby (i) approves, ratifies and confirms the execution, delivery and performance by the parties thereto of the Infrastructure Partnership Agreement, the Master Services Agreement and the other agreements described in or contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) agrees that the General Partner (on its own or through any officer of the Partnership) is authorized to execute, deliver and perform the agreements referred to in clause (i) of this sentence on behalf of the Partnership without any further act, approval or vote of the Partners or the other Persons who may acquire a Partnership Interest; and (iii) agrees that the execution, delivery or performance by the General Partner, the Service Providers or any Affiliate of any of them, of this Agreement or any agreement authorized or permitted under this Agreement, shall not constitute a breach by the General Partner of any duty that the General Partner may owe the Partnership or the Limited Partners or any other Persons under this Agreement (or any other agreements) or of any duty existing at law, in equity or otherwise.  19


5.2Restrictions on General Partners Authority  Except as provided in Article 13 and Article 15, the General Partner may not sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Assets, taken as a whole, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions without the prior approval of the holders of a majority of the voting power of Outstanding Equity Units; provided however that this provision shall not preclude or limit the General Partners ability, in its sole discretion, to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in all or substantially all of the Assets (including for the benefit of Persons other than members of the BIP Group, including Affiliates of the General Partner) and shall not apply to any forced sale of any or all of the Assets pursuant to the foreclosure of, or other realization upon, any such encumbrance. The General Partner shall not, on behalf of the Partnership, except as permitted under Section 10.6 and Section 12.1, elect or cause the Partnership to elect a successor general partner of the Partnership.  5.3Reimbursement of Partnership Expenses  5.3.1Except as provided in this Section 5.3 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the General Partner shall not be compensated for its services as General Partner of the Partnership.  5.3.2The General Partner shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may determine in its sole discretion, for (i) all direct and indirect expenses it incurs or payments it makes on behalf of the Partnership (including amounts paid to any Person to perform services for the Partnership or for the General Partner in the discharge of its duties to the Partnership), and (ii) all other necessary or appropriate expenses allocable to the Partnership or otherwise reasonably incurred by the General Partner in connection with conducting the Partnerships affairs (including expenses allocated to the General Partner by its Affiliates). The General Partner shall determine the fees and expenses that are allocable to the Partnership in any reasonable manner determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion. Reimbursements pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall be in addition to any reimbursement to the General Partner as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 5.6.  5.4Outside Activities  5.4.1The General Partner shall, for so long as it is the general partner of the Partnership, (i) maintain as its sole activity the activity of acting as the general partner of the Partnership and undertaking activities that are ancillary or related thereto, and (ii) not engage in any business or activity or incur or guarantee any debts or liabilities except in connection with or incidental to its performance as general partner as described above or incurring, guaranteeing, acquiring, owning or disposing of debt or equity securities of any other member of the BIP Group.  5.4.2Each Indemnified Party (other than the General Partner) shall have the right to engage in businesses of every type and description and other activities for profit, and to engage in and possess interests in business ventures of any and every type  20


or description, whether in activities similar to those of the General Partner, the Partnership or any other member of the BIP Group, in direct competition to, and/or in preference to, or to the exclusion of, the Partnership, the General Partner or any other member of the BIP Group. Such business interests, activities and engagements shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any duties stated or implied by law or equity, including fiduciary duties, to any of the General Partner, the Partnership (or any of their respective investors) or any other member of the BIP Group (or any of their respective investors) and shall be deemed not to be a breach of the General Partners fiduciary duties or any other obligation of any type whatsoever of the General Partner. None of the General Partner, the Partnership or any other member of the BIP Group or any other Person shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement or the partnership relationship established hereby or otherwise in any business ventures of an Indemnified Party.  5.4.3The General Partner and the Indemnified Parties shall have no obligation hereunder or as a result of any duties stated or implied by law or equity, including fiduciary duties, to present business or investment opportunities to the Partnership, the Limited Partners or any member of the BIP Group.  5.4.4The General Partner and its Affiliates shall have no obligation to (i) permit the Partnership or any other member of the BIP Group to use any facilities or assets of the General Partner or its Affiliates, except as may be provided in contracts, agreements or of the arrangements entered into from time to time specifically dealing with such use, or (ii) to enter into such contracts, agreements or other arrangements.  5.4.5Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.4, nothing in this Section 5.4 shall affect any obligation of an Indemnified Party to present a business or investment opportunity to the Partnership, the General Partner or any other member of the BIP Group pursuant to a separate written agreement between such Indemnified Party and the Partnership, the General Partner or any other member of the BIP Group.  5.5Disclosure of Interests  5.5.1The General Partner, its Affiliates and their respective partners, members, shareholders, directors, officers, employees and shareholders (each hereinafter referred to as an Interested Party) may become Limited Partners or beneficially interested in Limited Partners in the Partnership and may hold, dispose of or otherwise deal with Units with the same rights they would have if the General Partner were not party to this Agreement.  5.5.2An Interested Party shall not be liable to account either to other Interested Parties or to the Partnership, the Partners or any other Persons for any profits or benefits made or derived by or in connection with any transaction contemplated by Section 5.4.2.  21


5.5.3An Interested Party may sell investments to, purchase Assets from, vest Assets in and contract or enter into any contract, arrangement or transaction with the Partnership, any other member of the BIP Group or any other Person whose securities are held directly or indirectly by or on behalf of the Partnership or another member of the BIP Group, including any contract, arrangement or transaction relating to any financial, banking, investment banking, insurance, secretarial or other services, and may be interested in any such contract, transaction or arrangement and shall not be liable to account either to the Partnership, any other member of the BIP Group or any other Person in respect of any such contract, transaction, arrangement or interest, or any benefits or profits made or derived therefrom, by virtue only of the relationship between the parties concerned, provided that nothing herein contained shall permit an Interested Party or Limited Partner to enter into any such contract, transaction or arrangement as aforesaid, unless the terms thereof are permitted by or approved in accordance with the provisions of the Governing Instruments of the General Partner.  5.5.4Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, an Interested Party or Limited Partner may enter into any contract, transaction or arrangement with any member of the BIP Group to provide advice or services, including investment management, monitoring or oversight services, services with respect to corporate finance matters and valuations, services relating to the arrangement of new financing, mergers and acquisitions, services relating to the provision of directors or other manager of a Person and other investment banking services, including introduction and transaction organization services.  5.6Indemnification  5.6.1The General Partner and any of its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, agents, shareholders, partners, members and employees, any Person who serves on the board of directors or other Governing Body of any member of the BIP Group and any Person the General Partner designates as an indemnified person (each, an Indemnified Party) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be indemnified on an after Tax basis out of the Assets (and the General Partner shall be entitled to grant indemnities on behalf of the Partnership, and to make payments out of the Assets, to any Indemnified Party in each case in accordance with this Section 5.6) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts (collectively, Liabilities) arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits and proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Indemnified Party is or may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, in connection with the investments and activities of the Partnership or by reason of such Person being the General Partner, or an Affiliate of the General Partner, or an officer, director, agent, shareholder or employee of the General Partner, or an Affiliate of the General Partner, or a Person who serves on the board of directors or other Governing Body of any member of the BIP Group, provided that no such Indemnified Party shall be so indemnified, with  22


respect to any matter for which indemnification is sought, to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines pursuant to a final and non-appealable judgment that, in respect of such matter, the Indemnified Party acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct, or in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnified Partys conduct was unlawful. An Indemnified Party shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 5.6 because the Indemnified Party had an interest in the transaction with respect to which indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.  5.6.2To the fullest extent permitted by law, amounts incurred in respect of Liabilities incurred by an Indemnified Party in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, shall from time to time be advanced by the Partnership prior to a determination that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified, upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified as provided by the proviso of Section 5.6.1.  5.6.3The indemnification provided by this Section 5.6 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnified Party may be entitled under any agreement, as a matter of the law or otherwise, both as to actions in the Indemnified Partys capacity as an Indemnified Party and as to actions in any other capacity, and shall continue as to any Indemnified Party who has ceased to serve in the capacity in which such Indemnified Party became entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.6, and shall enure to the benefit of such Persons heirs, successors, assigns and administrators. The indemnification provisions of this Section 5.6 are for the benefit of each Indemnified Party, its heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Person.  5.6.4No amendment, modification or repeal of this provision or any other provision of this Agreement shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnified Party to be indemnified by the Partnership or the obligations of the Partnership to indemnify any such Indemnified Party under and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding may arise or be asserted.  5.6.5Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) no Indemnified Party shall be liable to the Partnership, any Partner or any other Person who has acquired an interest in a Partnership Interest for any Liabilities sustained or incurred by such Person as a result of any act or omission of the Indemnified Party, except to the extent there has been a final and non-appealable judgment  23


entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that such Liabilities resulted from the Indemnified Partys bad faith, fraud, wilful misconduct, or in the case of a criminal matter, actions with knowledge that the conduct was unlawful and (ii) any matter that is approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any duties to the Partnership or to the Partners stated or implied by law or equity, including fiduciary duties.  5.6.6To the extent that an Indemnified Party has any duties to the Partnership or to the Partners, including fiduciary duties, such Indemnified Party acting in connection with the Partnerships activities or affairs shall not be liable to the Partnership or to any Partner for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement.  5.6.7Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 5.6 (or that otherwise affects Section 5.6) that limits its scope shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 5.6 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding may arise or be asserted, provided that the Indemnified Party became an Indemnified Party hereunder prior to such amendment, modification or repeal.  5.6.8The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall survive the dissolution of the Partnership.  5.7Resolution of Conflicts of Interest  5.7.1Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, conflicts of interest and potential conflicts of interest that are approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee from time to time are hereby approved by all Partners.  5.7.2The parties acknowledge and agree that the Independent Committee may grant approvals for any matters that may give rise to a conflict of interest or potential conflict of interest pursuant to the guidelines, policies or procedures that are approved by the Independent Committee from time to time (the Conflicts Guidelines), and if and to the extent that such matters are permitted by the Conflicts Guidelines, no further special approval will be required in connection with such matter permitted thereby.  5.8Other Matters Concerning the General Partner  5.8.1The General Partner may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.  24


5.8.2The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion (including an Opinion of Counsel) of such Persons as to matters that such General Partner reasonably believes to be within such Persons professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion.  5.8.3The General Partner shall have the right, in respect of any of its powers or obligations hereunder, to act through any of its duly authorized officers and a duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact. Each such attorney shall, to the extent provided by the General Partner in the power of attorney, have full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and duty that is permitted or required to be done by the General Partner hereunder.  5.8.4Any standard of care or duty imposed by this Agreement or under any applicable law, rule or regulation shall be modified, waived or limited as required to permit the General Partner to act under this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated by this Agreement and to make any decision pursuant to the authority prescribed in this Agreement so long as such action is reasonably believed by the General Partner to be in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Partnership.  5.9Title to Assets  Title to Assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Partnership as an entity, and no Partner, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership interest in such Assets or any portion thereof. Title to any or all of the Assets may be held in the name of the Partnership, the General Partner, one or more of its Affiliates or one or more nominees, as the General Partner may determine. The General Partner hereby declares and warrants that any Assets for which record title is held in the name of the General Partner or one or more of its Affiliates or one or more nominees shall be held by the General Partner or such Affiliate or nominee for the benefit of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the General Partner shall use its reasonable efforts to cause record title to such Assets (other than those assets in respect of which the General Partner determines that the expense and difficulty of conveyancing makes transfer of record title to the Partnership impracticable) to be vested in the Partnership as soon as reasonably practicable; provided that, prior to the withdrawal of the General Partner or as soon thereafter as practicable, the General Partner shall use reasonable efforts to effect the transfer of record title to the Partnership and prior to any such transfer, will provide for the use of such Assets in a manner satisfactory to the Partnership. All Assets shall be recorded as the property of the Partnership in its books and records, irrespective of the name in which record title to such Assets is held.  5.10Purchase or Sale of Units  The General Partner may cause the Partnership to purchase or otherwise acquire Units. As long as Units are held by the Partnership, such Units shall not be considered Outstanding for  25


any purpose, except as otherwise provided herein.

Each Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies that may be available against such Person to contest, negate or disaffirm any action of the General Partner in connection with any such dealing. In no event shall any Person dealing with the General Partner or its representatives be obligated to ascertain that the terms of this Agreement have been complied with or to inquire into the necessity or expedience of any act or action of the General Partner or its representatives. Each and every certificate, document or other instrument executed on behalf of the Partnership by the General Partner or its representatives shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any and every Person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that (a) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement was in full force and effect, (b) the Person executing and delivering such certificate, document or instrument was duly authorized and empowered to do so for and on behalf of the Partnership and (c) such certificate, document or instrument was duly executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and is binding upon the Partnership.  5.12Services  The General Partner may cause the Partnership to appoint any Person (including any Affiliate of the General Partner) to manage the affairs of the Partnership, in accordance with the Conflicts Guidelines. Any services rendered pursuant to such appointment shall be on terms that are fair and reasonable to the Partnership, provided that the requirements of this Section 5.12 shall be deemed satisfied as to (i) any services provided under the Master Services Agreement and any agreement contemplated thereby, (ii) any transaction approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee, or (iii) any transaction entered into in accordance with the Conflicts Guidelines. The provisions of Section 5.3 shall apply to the rendering of services described in this Section 5.12.  ARTICLE 6 INVESTMENTS IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE PARTNERSHIP  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if and to the extent that the Partnership raises funds by way of the issuance of equity or debt securities, or otherwise, pursuant to a public offering, private placement or otherwise, the General Partner shall cause such funds to be invested in securities of the Infrastructure Partnership in accordance with the terms of the Infrastructure Partnership Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by the Partnership and the Infrastructure Partnership.  26


ARTICLE 7 RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF LIMITED PARTNERS  7.1Limitation of Liability  The Limited Partners shall have no liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement or the Limited Partnership Act or the Exempted Partnerships Act.  If it were determined that a Limited Partner was participating in the control or management of the Partnership or conducting the affairs of, signing or executing documents for or otherwise binding the Partnership (or purporting to do any of the foregoing) within the meaning of the Limited Partnership Act or the Exempted Partnerships Act, such Limited Partner would be liable as if it were a General Partner of the Partnership in respect of all debts of the Partnership incurred while that Limited Partner was so acting or purporting to act.  7.2Management of Partnership Affairs  No Limited Partner (other than the General Partner or any officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner, in its capacity as such, if such Person shall also be a Limited Partner) shall take part in the management or control of the activities and affairs of the Partnership or have any right or authority to act for or bind the Partnership or to take part or in any way to interfere in the conduct or management of the Partnership or to vote on matters relating to the Partnership, to have access to the books and records of the Partnership or any other member of the BIP Group other than as required by applicable law or as set forth in this Agreement. The transaction of any such activities or affairs by the General Partner or any officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner, in its capacity as such, shall not affect, impair or eliminate the limitations on the liability of the Limited Partners under this Agreement.  7.3Outside Activities  Subject to the provisions of Section 5.4, which shall continue to be applicable to the Persons referred to therein, regardless of whether such Persons shall also be Limited Partners, any Limited Partner shall be entitled to and may have interests and engage in activities in addition to activities relating to the Partnership, including interests and activities in direct competition with the Partnership or the Infrastructure Partnership. Neither the Partnership nor any of the other Partners shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement in any ventures of any Limited Partner.  ARTICLE 8 BOOKS, RECORDS, ACCOUNTING AND REPORTS  8.1Books, Records and Accounting  The General Partner shall keep or cause to be kept at the principal office of the Partnership appropriate books and records with respect to the Partnerships activities and affairs.

records of Partnership proceedings, may be kept on information storage devices, provided, that the books and records so maintained are convertible into clearly legible written form within a reasonable period of time. The books of the Partnership shall be maintained, for financial reporting purposes, on an accrual basis in accordance with IFRS-IASB.  8.2Fiscal Year  Subject to Section 14.1.10, the fiscal year of the Partnership (including for all relevant Tax purposes) shall be the calendar year; provided, however, if the Code requires a taxable year of the Partnership other than a calendar year then, for U.S. tax purposes, the fiscal year of the Partnership shall be such taxable year.  8.3Reports  8.3.1Within the period of time required by applicable law, regulation or any rule of any Securities Exchange, the General Partner shall prepare in accordance with IFRS-IASB and make publicly available as of a date selected by the General Partner in its sole discretion financial statements of the Partnership for such fiscal year of the Partnership audited by a firm of independent public accountants of international standing selected by the General Partner as well as a statement of the accounting policies used in their preparation, such information as may be required by applicable laws and regulations and such information as the General Partner deems appropriate.  8.3.2As and within the period of time required by any applicable law, regulation or any rule of any Securities Exchange, the General Partner shall prepare in accordance with IFRS-IASB and make publicly available quarterly financial statements of the Partnership, which may be unaudited, as may be required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any Securities Exchange.  ARTICLE 9 TAX MATTERS  9.1Tax Information  9.1.1Following each taxable year of the Partnership, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to supply each Person that was a Partner at any time during such taxable year with a Schedule K-1 (or equivalent) within ninety (90) days after the close of such taxable year and information related to the passive foreign investment company status of any non U.S. corporation that the Partnership controls (together with such Schedule K-1, the K-1 Information). The General Partner shall also, where reasonably possible and applicable, prepare and send such Persons (i) such other information required by any non-U.S. Limited Partner for U.S. federal income tax reporting purposes and (ii) such information as may be necessary for such Persons to file their own Canadian federal income tax returns.  28


9.1.1.1Notwithstanding Section 9.1.1:  (a)Partners entitled to receive the K-1 Information pursuant to Section 9.1.1 that are of a type, as identified by their respective Record Holders though whom their Units are held, that do not ordinarily have U.S. federal tax return filing requirements (collectively, the K-1 Partners) agree to appoint the General Partner as their agent for purposes of receiving such K-1 Information; and  (b)unless a K-1 Partner requests physical delivery of the K-1 Information in respect of the immediately preceding taxable year of the Partnership within sixty (60) days after the close of such taxable year, upon electronic delivery of such K-1 Information to the General Partner within ninety (90) days of the close of such taxable year, the Partnership will have satisfied its requirement to deliver such K-1 Information to such K-1 Partner.  9.2Preparation of Tax Returns  The General Partner shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all returns of Partnership income, gains, deductions, losses and other items required of the Partnership for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes and, where applicable, Canadian Tax Purposes. The classification, realization and recognition of income, gain, losses and deductions and other items shall be computed (i) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, on the accrual method of accounting; and (ii) for Canadian Tax Purposes, in accordance with the Income Tax Act.  9.3Tax Elections  The General Partner shall determine whether to make, to refrain from making or to revoke the election provided for in Section 754 of the Code, and any and all other elections permitted by the Code, the Income Tax Act or any other national, federal, provincial, state or local tax law.  9.4Tax Controversies  Subject to the provisions hereof, the General Partner is designated the Tax Matters Partner (as defined in Section 6231 of the Code) and the designated partner for the purposes of the Income Tax Act including subsections 152(1.4) to 152(1.8) thereof, and is authorized and required to represent the Partnership (at the Partnerships expense) in connection with all examinations of the Partnerships affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Partnership funds for professional services and costs associated therewith. Each Partner agrees to cooperate with the General Partner and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably required by the General Partner to conduct such proceedings.  29


9.5Withholding  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to take any action that it determines in its sole discretion to be necessary or appropriate to cause the Partnership to comply with any withholding requirements established under the Code, the Income Tax Act or any other national, federal, provincial, state or local law including Chapters 3 and 4 of Subtitle A of the Code. To the extent that the Partnership is required to withhold and pay over to any taxing authority any amount resulting from the allocation or distribution of income to any Partner, the amount withheld shall be treated as a distribution of cash or as a general expense of the Partnership pursuant to Section 4.3 in the amount of such withholding from such Partner. To the extent an amount otherwise payable to a member of the BIP Group is required to be withheld and paid over to any taxing authority, and such withheld amount is attributable to a Partners ownership of Units, then such withheld amount shall be treated as a distribution of cash to such Partner or as a general expense of the Partnership pursuant to Section 4.3 in the amount of such withholding.  9.6Election to be Treated as a Corporation  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the General Partner determines in its sole discretion that it is no longer in the best interests of the Partnership to continue as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the General Partner may elect to treat the Partnership as an association or as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal (and applicable state) income tax purposes.  ARTICLE 10 CERTIFICATES; RECORD HOLDERS; TRANSFERS OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS  10.1Certificates  10.1.1Upon the Partnerships issuance of Partnership Interests of all or any classes to any Person, the Partnership shall issue one or more Certificates in the name of such Person evidencing the number of such Partnership Interests being so issued. Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Partnership by the General Partner. No Certificate evidencing the issuance of Partnership Interests shall be valid for any purpose until it has been countersigned by the Transfer Agent, provided that if the General Partner elects to issue Partnership Interests (including Units) in global form, the Certificates of such Partnership Interests (including Units) shall be valid upon receipt of a certificate from the Transfer Agent certifying that the Partnership Interests have been duly registered in accordance with the directions of the Partnership.  10.1.2Notwithstanding Section 10.1.1, Partnership Interests (including Units) of any class may be traded through an electronic settlement system and held in Uncertificated form in accordance with such arrangements as may from time to time be permitted by any statute, regulation, order, instrument or rule in force affecting the Partnership. Amendments to any provisions of this Agreement which  30


may be necessary or expedient for this purpose may be made by the General Partner in its sole discretion but will not be deemed to vary the rights of any class of Partnership Interests (including Units).  10.1.3Certificates may bear any legends required by applicable law or otherwise determined to be appropriate by the General Partner.  10.2Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates  10.2.1If any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Transfer Agent, the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership shall execute, and upon its request the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Certificate evidencing the same number of Partnership Interests as the Certificate so surrendered.  10.2.2The General Partner on behalf of the Partnership shall execute, and upon its request the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver a new Certificate in place of any Certificate previously issued if the Record Holder of the Certificate:  10.2.2.1makes proof by affidavit, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, that a previously issued Certificate has been lost, destroyed or stolen;  10.2.2.2requests the issuance of a new Certificate before the Partnership has notice that the Certificate has been acquired by a purchaser for value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim;  10.2.2.3if requested by the General Partner, delivers to the Partnership a bond, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, with surety or sureties and with fixed or open penalty as the General Partner may reasonably direct, in its sole discretion, to indemnify the Partnership, the General Partner and the Transfer Agent against any claim that may be made on account of the alleged loss, destruction or theft of the Certificate; and  10.2.2.4satisfies any other reasonable requirements imposed by the General Partner.  10.2.3If a Record Holder fails to notify the Partnership within a reasonable time after the holder has notice of the loss, destruction or theft of a Certificate, and a transfer of the Partnership Interests represented by the Certificate is registered before the Partnership, the General Partner or the Transfer Agent receives such notification, the Record Holder shall be precluded from making any claim against the Partnership, the General Partner or the Transfer Agent for such transfer or for a new Certificate.  10.2.4As a condition to the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 10.2, the General Partner may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or  31


other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) reasonably connected therewith.  10.3Record Holder  In accordance with Section 10.5.2, the Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the Record Holder as the Limited Partner with respect to any Units and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Units on the part of any other Person, whether or not the Partnership shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by applicable law or regulation. Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Units, as between the Partnership on the one hand and such other Person on the other hand, such representative Person shall be the Record Holder of such Partnership Interest. A Person may become a Record Holder without the consent or approval of any Partner.  10.4Transfer Generally  10.4.1The term transfer, when used in this Agreement with respect to a Partnership Interest, shall be deemed to refer to a transaction (i) by which the General Partner assigns its General Partner Unit to another Person or (ii) by which the holder of a Unit assigns such Unit to another Person, and includes a sale, assignment, gift, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation, mortgage, exchange or any other disposition by law or otherwise.  10.4.2No Partnership Interest shall be transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 10. Any transfer or purported transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article 10 shall be null and void.  10.4.3Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent the parent entity of the General Partner from disposing of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the General Partner.  10.5Registration and Transfer of Units  10.5.1The General Partner shall cause to be kept at its registered office in Bermuda on behalf of the Partnership a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe and subject to the provisions of Section 10.5.2, the General Partner will provide for the registration and transfer of Units. The Transfer Agent is hereby appointed registrar and transfer agent for the purpose of registering Units and transfers of such Units as herein provided. The Partnership shall not recognize transfers of Certificates representing Units unless such transfers are effected in the manner described in this Section 10.5. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Units evidenced by a Certificate, and subject to the provisions of Section 10.5.2, the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership  32


shall execute and deliver, and the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver, in the name of the holder or the designated transferee or transferees, as required pursuant to the holders instructions, one or more new Certificates evidencing the same aggregate number of Units as was evidenced by the Certificate so surrendered.  10.5.2Except as otherwise provided in Article 11, the Partnership shall not recognize any transfer of Units until the Certificates evidencing such Units are surrendered for registration of transfer.  10.5.3Subject to (i) the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.5; (ii) Section 10.3; (iii) Section 10.7; (iv) with respect to any class or series of Units, the provisions of any statement of designations or amendment to this Agreement establishing such series; (v) any contractual provisions binding on any Limited Partner; and (vi) provisions of applicable law including the Limited Partnership Act and the Exempted Partnerships Act, Units shall be freely transferable.  10.5.4The General Partner shall have power to implement such arrangements as it may, in its sole discretion, determine fit in order for any class of Units to be admitted to settlement by means of any clearing system.  10.5.5The General Partner may, in its sole discretion and without giving a reason, refuse to register a transfer of any Unit in Certificated form or Uncertificated form (subject to Section 10.5.6) which is not fully paid or on which the Partnership has a lien.  10.5.6The General Partner may only decline to register a transfer of an Uncertificated Unit in the circumstances set out in this Agreement, the listing rules made by any Securities Exchange and the regulations of any clearing system implemented pursuant to Section 10.5.4, or as otherwise required by applicable law, rule or regulation.  10.6Transfer of General Partner Unit  10.6.1The General Partner may transfer its General Partner Unit to a single transferee (including upon its merger, consolidation or other combination into any other Person or the transfer by it of all or substantially all of its assets to another Person) if, but only if, (i) the transferee agrees to assume and be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) the Partnership receives an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer (or merger, consolidation or combination) would not result in the loss of limited liability of any Limited Partner or of any limited partner of the Infrastructure Partnership, or cause the Partnership or the Infrastructure Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for tax purposes (to the extent not previously treated as such) or cause the Partnership or the Infrastructure Partnership to become an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or similar legislation in other jurisdictions; provided,  33


however, that no such opinion shall be required in connection with an election described in Section 9.6 made by the General Partner or in connection with a transfer following such an election.  10.6.2In the case of a transfer pursuant to this Section 10.6, the transferee or successor (as the case may be) shall be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner immediately after the transfer of the General Partner Unit, and the Partnership shall continue without dissolution.  10.6.3The Parties agree that no transfer under this Section 10.6 will occur without the notification to and approval of the relevant Bermuda regulatory authorities in accordance with Bermuda law.  10.7Restrictions on Transfers  Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 10, no transfer of any Partnership Interest shall be made if such transfer would (a) violate the then applicable securities laws or rules and regulations of any securities commission of any jurisdiction or any other governmental authorities with jurisdiction over such transfer, (b) result in the taxation of the Partnership as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise subject the Partnership to entity-level taxation for tax purposes (in either case, for U.S. tax purposes, to the extent not otherwise elected by the General Partner pursuant to Section 9.6 to be treated as such) or (c) affect the Partnerships existence or qualification as an exempted limited partnership under the Limited Partnership Act or Exempted Partnerships Act.

A Person may become a Record Holder without the consent or approval of any of the Partners. A Person may not become a Limited Partner without acquiring a Unit.  11.1.3Any transfer of a Unit shall not entitle the transferee to share in the profits and losses, to receive distributions, to receive allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit or any similar item or to any other rights to which the transferor was entitled until the transferee becomes a Limited Partner and a party to this Agreement pursuant to this Article 11.  11.2Admission of Successor General Partner  A successor General Partner approved pursuant to Section 12.1 or the transferee of or successor to the General Partners General Partner Unit pursuant to Section 10.6 shall be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner, subject to the requirements of the Limited Partnership Act and the Exempted Partnerships Act, effective immediately prior to the withdrawal of the General Partner pursuant to Section 12.1 or the transfer of the General Partners General Partner Unit pursuant to Section 10.6.

If such parties cannot agree upon one independent investment banking firm or other independent expert within 45 days after the effective date of such departure, then the Departing General Partner shall designate an independent investment banking firm or other independent expert, the Departing General Partners successor shall designate an independent investment banking firm or other independent expert, and such firms or experts shall mutually select a third independent investment banking firm or independent expert, which shall determine the fair market value of the General Partner Unit. In making its determination, such independent investment banking firm or other independent expert shall consider the then current trading price of Equity Units on any Securities Exchange on which Equity Units are then listed, the value of the Assets, the rights and obligations of the General Partner and other factors it may deem relevant.  12.2.3If the General Partner Unit is not acquired in the manner set forth in Section 12.2.1, the Departing General Partner shall become a Limited Partner and  37


the General Partner Unit shall be converted into an Equity Unit pursuant to a valuation made by an investment banking firm or other independent expert selected pursuant to Section 12.2.1, without reduction in such Partnership Interest (but subject to proportionate dilution by reason of the admission of its successor).  12.3Withdrawal of Limited Partners  No Limited Partner shall have any right to withdraw from the Partnership; provided, however, that when a transferee of a Limited Partners Units becomes a Record Holder, such transferring Limited Partner shall, subject to Section 4.1.2, cease to be a Limited Partner with respect to the Units so transferred.  ARTICLE 13 TERMINATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP  13.1General  Subject to the provisions of this Article 13, the Partnership shall terminate on the earlier to occur of:  13.1.1the date on which all Assets have been disposed of or otherwise realized by the Partnership and the proceeds of such disposals or realizations have been distributed to the Partners;  13.1.2the service of notice by the General Partner, with the approval of a majority of the members of the Independent Committee, that in the opinion of the General Partner the coming into force of any law, regulation or binding authority renders illegal or impracticable the continuation of the Partnership; or  13.1.3the election of the General Partner, if the Partnership, as determined by the General Partner, is required to register as an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or similar legislation in other jurisdictions.  13.2Incapacity  13.2.1Subject to Section 13.2.2, the Partnership shall be dissolved on the following:  13.2.1.1the date that the General Partner withdraws from the Partnership without the appointment of a successor pursuant to Section 12.1 having been implemented; or  13.2.1.2the date on which any court of competent jurisdiction enters a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership or an order to wind up or liquidate the General Partner without the appointment of a successor pursuant to Section 12.1.  38


13.2.2The Partnership shall be reconstituted and continue without dissolution, if within 30 days of the date of dissolution (and provided that a notice of dissolution with respect to the Partnership has not been provided to the Bermuda Monetary Authority) under this Section 13.2, a successor General Partner appointed pursuant to this Agreement executes a transfer deed pursuant to which the new General Partner assumes the rights and undertakes the obligations of the original general partner, but only if the Partnership receives an Opinion of Counsel that the admission of the new General Partner will not result in the loss of limited liability of any Limited Partner.  13.3Liquidation  Upon dissolution of the Partnership, unless the Partnership is continued under an election to reconstitute and continue the Partnership pursuant to Section 13.2, the General Partner shall act, or cause one or more Persons to act, as the Liquidator. The Liquidator (if other than the General Partner) shall be entitled to receive such compensation for its services as may be approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee. If the General Partner is acting as the Liquidator, it shall not be entitled to receive any additional compensation for acting in such capacity. The Liquidator shall agree not to resign at any time without 15 days prior notice and (if other than the General Partner) may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by notice of removal approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee. Upon dissolution, removal or resignation of the Liquidator, a successor and substitute Liquidator (who shall have and succeed to all rights, powers and duties of the original Liquidator) shall within 30 days thereafter be approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee. The right to approve a successor or substitute Liquidator in the manner provided herein shall be deemed to refer also to any such successor or substitute Liquidator approved in the manner herein provided. Except as expressly provided in this Section 13.3, the Liquidator approved in the manner provided herein shall have and may exercise, without further authorization or consent of any of the parties hereto, all of the powers conferred upon the General Partner under the terms of this Agreement (but subject to all of the applicable limitations, contractual and otherwise, upon the exercise of such powers) to the extent necessary or desirable in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator to carry out the duties and functions of the Liquidator hereunder for and during such period of time as shall be reasonably required in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator to complete the winding-up and liquidation of the Partnership as provided for herein. The Liquidator shall proceed to dispose of the Assets, discharge its liabilities, and otherwise wind up its affairs in such manner and over such period as the Liquidator determines to be in the best interest of the Partners, subject to applicable laws and the following:  13.3.1the Assets may be disposed of by public or private sale or by distribution in kind to one or more Partners on such terms as the Liquidators and such Partners or Partners may agree; if any property is distributed in kind, the Partner receiving the property shall be deemed for purposes of Section 13.3.3 to have received cash equal to its fair market value; and contemporaneously therewith, appropriate cash distributions must be made to the other Partners; the Liquidator may distribute the Assets, in whole or in part, in kind if it determines that a sale would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners; the Liquidator may defer  39


liquidation of the Assets for a reasonable time if it determines that an immediate sale or distribution of all or some of the Assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners;  13.3.2liabilities of the Partnership, including amounts owed to the Liquidator as compensation for serving in such capacity (subject to the terms of Section 13.3) and amounts to Partners otherwise than in respect of their distribution rights under Section 4.3, shall be discharged; with respect to any liability that is contingent, conditional or unmatured or is otherwise not yet due and payable, the Liquidator shall either settle such claim for such amount as it thinks appropriate or establish a reserve of cash or other assets to provide for its payment; when paid, any unused portion of the reserve shall be distributed as additional liquidation proceeds; and  13.3.3all property and all cash in excess of that required to discharge liabilities of the Partnership pursuant to Section 13.3.2 shall be distributed to the Preferred Unitholders in priority to the other Partners, up to the amount of the liquidation entitlement of the Preferred Units as set out in Schedule A, and any remaining amount available for distribution will be distributed to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests, in each case as of the date chosen by the Liquidator. In the event that the property and cash to be distributed to the Preferred Unitholders on the liquidiation of the Partnership is not sufficient to pay the full amount of the liquidation entitlement of the Preferred Units as set out in Schedule A for each Preferred Unit then Outstanding, the amount available for distribution shall be paid to the Preferred Unitholders pro rata in proportion to their respective relative percentage of Preferred Units held (determined by reference to the aggregate value of the issue price of the Preferred Units held by each Preferred Unitholder relative to the aggregate value of the issue price of all Preferred Units then Outstanding). Such distributions shall be made by the end of the taxable year in which the liquidation of the Partnership occurs (or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation).  13.4Distributions in Kind  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.3, which require the liquidation of the Assets, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if prior to or upon dissolution of the Partnership, the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners, the Liquidator may, in its absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any Assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Partnership (including those to Partners as creditors) and/or distribute to the Partners or to specific classes of Partners, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.3, undivided interests in such Assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any such distributions in kind shall be made only if, in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator, such distributions in kind are in the best interest of the Limited Partners, and shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. The Liquidator shall  40


determine the fair market value of any property distributed in kind using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt.  13.5Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership  Upon the completion of the distribution of Partnership cash and property as provided in Sections 13.3 and 13.4, the Partnership shall be terminated and the Certificate of Limited Partnership and all qualifications of the Partnership as a foreign limited partnership in jurisdictions other than Bermuda shall be cancelled and such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership shall be taken.  13.6Reasonable Time for Winding Up  A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the activities and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its Assets pursuant to Section 13.3 in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between the Partners during the period of liquidation.  13.7Return of Capital  The General Partner shall not be personally liable for, and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or property to the Partnership to enable it to effectuate, the return of the Capital Contributions of the Limited Partners, or any portion thereof, it being expressly understood that any such return shall be made solely from Assets.  13.8Waiver of Partition  Each Partner hereby waives any right to partition of the Partnership property.  ARTICLE 14 AMENDMENT OF PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT; MEETINGS; RECORD DATE  14.1Amendment to be Adopted Solely by General Partner  Subject to compliance with the requirements of the Limited Partnership Act and the Exempted Partnerships Act, each Partner agrees that the General Partner (pursuant to its powers of attorney from the Limited Partners), without the approval of any Partner, may amend any provision of this Agreement, and execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record whatever documents may be required in connection therewith, to reflect:  14.1.1a change in the name of the Partnership, the location of the Partnerships registered office or the Partnerships registered agent;  14.1.2admission, substitution or withdrawal of Partners in accordance with this Agreement;  14.1.3a change that the General Partner determines is reasonable and necessary or appropriate to qualify or continue the qualification of the Partnership as an  41

Prompt notice of the taking of action by written consent or without a meeting shall be given to the Limited Partners who have not approved in writing. The General Partner may specify that any written ballot from Limited Partners for the purpose of taking any action without a meeting shall be returned to the Partnership within the time period, which shall be not less than 20 days, specified by the General Partner. If a ballot returned to the Partnership does not vote all of the Units held by the Limited Partner, the Partnership shall be deemed to have failed to receive a ballot for the Units that were not voted.  14.11Voting and Other Rights  14.11.1Only those holders of Units of the class or series for which a meeting has been called who are Record Holders on the Record Date set pursuant to Section 14.6 (and also subject to the limitations contained in the definition of Outstanding) shall be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, a meeting of Partners or to act with respect to matters as to which the holders of the Outstanding Units have the right to vote or to act. Notwithstanding the definition of Limited Partner, all  46


references in this Agreement to votes, consents or approvals of, or other acts that may be taken by, the Outstanding Units shall be deemed to be references to the votes, consents, approvals or acts of the Record Holders of such Outstanding Units.  14.11.2Each Outstanding Unit shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote for the purposes of any approval at a meeting of Limited Partners or by written consent.  14.11.3With respect to Units that are held for a Persons account by another Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation, or an agent of any of the foregoing), in whose name such Units are registered, such other Person shall, in exercising the voting or consent rights in respect of such Units on any matter, and unless the arrangement between such Persons provides otherwise, vote such Units in favor of, and at the direction of, the Person who is the beneficial owner, and the Partnership shall be entitled to assume it is so acting without further inquiry.

A copy or a summary of the Merger Agreement shall be included in or enclosed with the notice of a meeting or the written consent.  15.3.2Except as provided in Section 15.3.4, the Merger Agreement and the merger, consolidation or other combination contemplated thereby shall be approved upon receiving the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power of Outstanding Equity Units unless the Merger Agreement contains any provision which, if contained in an amendment to this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement or applicable law would require the vote or consent of a greater percentage of the Outstanding Equity Units or of any class of Limited Partners, in  48


which case such greater percentage vote or consent shall be required for approval of the Merger Agreement.  15.3.3Except as provided in Section 15.3.4, after such approval by vote or consent of the Limited Partners, and at any time prior to the effective time of the Merger Agreement, the merger or consolidation may be abandoned pursuant to provisions therefor, if any, set forth in the Merger Agreement.  15.3.4Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Article 15 or in this Agreement, and, in addition to the provisions of Section 5.2 the General Partner is permitted, without Limited Partner approval, to convert the Partnership into a new limited liability entity, to merge the Partnership into, or convey all of the Partnerships Assets to, another limited liability entity, which shall be newly formed and shall have no assets, liabilities or operations at the time of such conversion, merger or conveyance other than those it receives from the Partnership; provided that (A) the General Partner has received an Opinion of Counsel that the merger or conveyance, as the case may be, would not result in the loss of the limited liability of any Limited Partner; (B) the sole purpose of such conversion, merger or conveyance is to effect a mere change in the legal form of the Partnership into another limited liability entity; and (C) the Governing Instruments of the new entity provide the Limited Partners and the General Partner with substantially the same rights and obligations as are herein contained.  15.4No Dissenters Rights  The parties acknowledge that holders of Partnership Interests are not entitled to dissenters rights of appraisal under this Agreement or the Limited Partnership Act or the Exempted Partnerships Act in the event of a merger or consolidation, a sale of substantially all of our assets or any other transaction or event.  15.5Effect of Merger  15.5.1Upon the effective date of the Merger Agreement:  15.5.1.1all of the rights, privileges and powers of each of the entities that has merged or consolidated, and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all debts due to any of those entities and all other things and causes of action belonging to each of those entities shall be vested in the Surviving Entity and after the merger or consolidation shall be the property of the Surviving Entity to the extent they were of each constituent entity.  15.5.1.2the title to any real property vested by deed or otherwise in any of those constituent entities shall not revert and is not in any way impaired because of the merger or consolidation;  15.5.1.3all rights of creditors and all liens on or security interest in property of any of those constituent entities shall be preserved unimpaired; and  49

(a)During the Initial Fixed Rate Period, the Series 1 Distributions will be payable quarterly on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year (each, a Distribution Payment Date) at the Initial Fixed Distribution Rate. The initial Series 1 Distribution will be payable June 30, 2015 and will be an amount in cash equal to C$0.3390 per Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit less any tax required to be deducted and withheld. On each Distribution Payment Date during the Initial Fixed Rate Period, (other than June 30, 2015) the Series 1 Distribution will be equal to C$0.28125 per unit.  (b)During each Subsequent Fixed Rate Period, Series 1 Distributions payable on the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will be in an annual amount per unit determined by multiplying the Annual Fixed Distribution Rate applicable to such Subsequent Fixed Rate Period by C$25.00, less any tax required to be deducted  A-5


and withheld, and shall be payable quarterly on each Distribution Payment Date during such Subsequent Fixed Rate Period.  (c)In respect of each Subsequent Fixed Rate Period, the Partnership will, during such Subsequent Fixed Rate Period calculate on each Fixed Rate Calculation Date the Annual Fixed Distribution Rate for such Subsequent Fixed Rate Period and will, on the Fixed Rate Calculation Date, give written notice thereof to the Holders. Each such determination by the Partnership of the Annual Fixed Distribution Rate will, in the absence of manifest error, be final and binding upon the Partnership and upon all Holders of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units.  (d)If on any Distribution Payment Date, the Series 1 Distributions accrued to such date are not paid in full on all of the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units then Outstanding, such Series 1 Distributions, or the unpaid part thereof, shall be paid on a subsequent date or dates determined by the General Partner on which the Partnership shall have sufficient monies properly applicable to the payment of such Series 1 Distributions.  (e)The Holders shall not be entitled to any distributions other than or in excess of the Series 1 Distributions.  (f)The Record Date for the payment of Series 1 Distributions will be the last Business Day of the calendar month prior to the calendar month during which a Distribution Payment Date falls, or such other record date if any, as may be fixed by the General Partner.  Series 1 Distributions shall (except in case of redemption or reclassification in which case payment of Series 1 Distributions shall, subject to the provisions of Section 17, be made on surrender of the certificate representing the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed or reclassified) be paid by (i) posting in a postage paid envelope addressed to each Holder at the last address of such Holder as it appears on the securities register of the Partnership or, in the case of joint Holders, to the address of that one whose name appears first in the securities register of the Partnership as one of such joint Holders, or, in the event of the address of any Holder not so appearing, then to the address of such Holder last known to the Partnership, a cheque for such Series 1 Distributions (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld) payable to the order of such Holder or, in the case of joint Holders, to the order of all such Holders failing written instructions from them to the contrary or (ii) by any other reasonable means the Partnership deems desirable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any distribution cheque may be delivered by the Partnership to a Holder at his/her address as aforesaid. The posting or delivery of such cheque or the payment of the Series 1 Distributions by any other reasonable means on or before the date on which such distribution is to be paid to a Holder shall be deemed to be payment and shall satisfy and discharge all liabilities for the payment of such Distributions to the extent of the sum represented thereby (plus the amount of any tax required to be deducted and withheld as aforesaid) unless, if applicable, such cheque is not paid on due presentation. Subject to applicable law, distributions which are represented by a cheque which has not been presented to the  A-6


Partnerships bankers for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed for a period of two years from the date on which they were declared to be payable shall be forfeited to the Partnership.  2.2Distribution for Other than a Full Distribution Period  Subject to the Section 2.1, for any period that is less than a full Distribution Period, with respect to any Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit (i) that is issued, redeemed, reclassified or purchased during such Distribution Period or (ii) in respect of which assets of the Partnership are distributed to the Holders thereof pursuant to Section 3, the Holders shall be entitled to receive, and the Partnership shall pay thereon, if, as and when declared by the General Partner, out of moneys of the Partnership properly applicable to the payment of distributions and without regard to the income of the Partnership, Series 1 Distributions as follows:  (a)in respect of the period beginning on and including the date of initial issue of the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units up to and including June 30, 2015 (the Initial Distribution Period), a distribution in an amount per Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units equal to the amount obtained (rounded to four decimal places) where C$1.125 is multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days from but excluding the date of issue of the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units up to and including June 30, 2015 and the denominator of which is 365, less any tax required to be deducted and withheld. The Series 1 Distribution payable for the Initial Distribution Period, payable as of June 30, 2015, as calculated by this method shall be C$0.3390 per Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units;  (b)in respect of any period other than the Initial Distribution Period that is less than a full Distribution Period, a distribution in an amount per Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit equal to the amount obtained (rounded to four decimal places) when the product of the Annual Fixed Distribution Rate and C$25.00 is multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days elapsed in the relevant period and the denominator of which is 365, less any tax required to be deducted and withheld.  3.Rights on Liquidation  In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of assets of the Partnership among its unitholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs, unless the Partnership is continued under the election to reconstitute and continue the Partnership pursuant to Section 13.2.2 of the Agreement, the Holders shall be entitled to receive C$25.00 per Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit held by them, together with all accrued (whether or not declared) and unpaid Series 1 Distributions up to but excluding the date of payment or distribution (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), before any amounts shall be paid or any assets of the Partnership distributed to the holders of  A-7


any Junior Securities. Upon payment of such amounts, the Holders shall not be entitled to share in any further distribution of the assets of the Partnership.  4.Redemption at the Option of the Partnership  The Partnership may not redeem any of the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units prior to June 30, 2020. On June 30, 2020 and on June 30 every five years thereafter (each, a Series 1 Reclassification Date), the Partnership may, subject to applicable law and to the provisions described under Section 6 below, upon giving notice as hereinafter provided, at its option, without the consent of the Holders redeem all, or any part, of the then Outstanding Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units by the payment of an amount in cash for each Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit so redeemed equal to C$25.00 per Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit, together with all accrued and unpaid Series 1 Distributions up to but excluding the date of payment or distribution (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership) (the Redemption Price).  If less than all of the then Outstanding Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are at any time to be redeemed, then the particular Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis disregarding fractions or, if the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are at such time listed on such exchange, with the consent of the Toronto Stock Exchange, in such manner as the General Partner in its sole discretion may, by resolution determine.  The Partnership shall give notice in writing not less than 25 days nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable Series 1 Reclassification Date of its intention to redeem such Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to each person who at the date of giving such notice is the Holder of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed. Any such notice shall be validly and effectively given on the date on which it is sent and such notice shall be given and sent by posting the same in a postage paid envelope addressed to each Holder of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed at the last address of such Holder as it appears on the securities register of the Partnership, or in the case of joint Holders, to the address of that one whose name appears first in the securities register of the Partnership as one of such joint Holders or, in the event of the address of any Holder not so appearing, then to the address of such Holder last known to the Partnership, provided that the accidental failure or omission to give any such notices as aforesaid to one or more of such Holders shall not affect the validity of the redemption as to the other Holders to be redeemed. Such notice shall set out the number of such Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units held by the person to whom it is addressed which are to be redeemed and the Redemption Price and shall also set out the date on which the redemption is to take place. On and after the date so specified for redemption, the Partnership shall pay or cause to be paid to the Holders to be redeemed the Redemption Price on presentation and surrender, at any place within Canada designated by such notice, of the certificate or certificates for such Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Such payment shall be made by cheque payable at par at any branch in Canada of the Partnerships bankers for the time being or by any other reasonable means  A-8


the Partnership deems desirable and shall be a full and complete discharge of the Partnerships obligation to pay the Redemption Price owed to the Holders of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption unless the cheque is not honoured when presented for payment. From and after the date specified in any such notice, the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption shall cease to be entitled to Series 1 Distributions and the Holders thereof shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof, except to receive the Redemption Price therefor, provided that if payment of the Redemption Price shall not be duly made by the Partnership on or before the redemption date, the Partnership shall forthwith thereafter return the Holders deposited unit certificate or certificates to the Holder. At any time after notice of redemption is given as aforesaid, the Partnership shall have the right to deposit the Redemption Price of any or all Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), or such part thereof as at the time of deposit has not been claimed by the Holders entitled thereto, with any chartered bank or banks or with any trust company or trust companies in Canada named in the notice of redemption to the credit of a special account or accounts in trust for the respective Holders of such units, to be paid to them respectively upon surrender to such bank or banks or trust company or trust companies of the certificate or certificates representing the same, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Upon such deposit or deposits being made, such units shall be deemed to be redeemed on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption. After the Partnership has made a deposit as aforesaid with respect to any units, the Holders thereof shall not, from and after the redemption date, be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof and the rights of the Holders thereof shall be limited to receiving a proportion of the amounts so deposited applicable to such units, without interest. Any interest allowed on such deposit shall belong to the Partnership. Subject to applicable law, redemption monies that are represented by a cheque which has not been presented to the Partnerships bankers for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed (including monies held in deposit as provided for above) for a period of two years from the date specified for redemption shall be forfeited to the Partnership.  5.Reclassification of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units  5.1Reclassification into Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at the Option of the Holder  (a)Holders of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will have the right, at their option, on each Series 1 Reclassification Date, to reclassify, subject to the applicable law and the terms and provisions hereof, all or any part of the then Outstanding Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units registered in the name of the Holder into Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on the basis of one (1) Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit for each Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit. The Partnership will provide written notice not less than 25 and not more than 60 days prior to the applicable Series 1 Reclassification Date to the Holders of the reclassification privilege provided for herein (the Reclassification Privilege). Such notice shall (i) set out the Series 1 Reclassification Date, and (ii) include instructions to such Holders as to the  A-9


method by which such Reclassification Privilege may be exercised, as described in Section 5.3. On the 30th day prior to the first day of a Subsequent Fixed Rate Period, the Partnership will provide to the Holders written notice of the Floating Quarterly Distribution Rate applicable to the Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units for the next succeeding Quarterly Floating Rate Period and the Annual Fixed Distribution Rate applicable to the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units for the next succeeding Subsequent Fixed Rate Period, in each case as determined by the Partnership.  (b)If the Partnership gives notice as provided in Section 4 to the Holders of the redemption of all the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, the Partnership will not be required to give notice as provided in this Section 5.1 to the Holders of the Floating Quarterly Distribution Rate, Annual Fixed Distribution Rate or Reclassification Privilege and the right of any Holder of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to reclassify such Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units as herein provided will cease and terminate in that event.  (c)Holders of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall not be entitled to reclassify their units into Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on a Series 1 Reclassification Date if the Partnership determines that there would remain Outstanding on the Series 1 Reclassification Date less than 1,000,000 Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units after taking into account all Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice of reclassification into Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided and all Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice for reclassification into Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided. The Partnership will give written notice thereof to all affected Holders of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at least seven (7) days prior to the applicable Series 1 Reclassification Date and, subject to the provisions of Section 17, will issue and deliver, or cause to be delivered, prior to such Series 1 Reclassification Date, at the expense of the Partnership, to such Holders of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, who have surrendered for reclassification any endorsed certificate or certificates representing Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, new certificates representing the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented by any certificate or certificates surrendered as aforesaid.  5.2Automatic Reclassification  If the Partnership determines that there would remain Outstanding on a Series 1 Reclassification Date less than 1,000,000 Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units after taking into account all Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice of reclassification into Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided and all Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice of reclassification into Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided, then, all, but not part, of the remaining Outstanding Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will automatically be reclassified into Series 2 Preferred Limited  A-10


Partnership Units on the basis of one (1) Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit for each Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit on the applicable Series 1 Reclassification Date. The Partnership shall give notice in writing thereof to the Holders of such remaining Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at least seven (7) days prior to the Series 1 Reclassification Date.  5.3Manner of Reclassification  (a)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, the Reclassification Privilege may be exercised by notice in writing (an Election Notice) given not earlier than the 30th day prior to a Series 1 Reclassification Date but not later than 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the 15th day preceding the applicable Series 1 Reclassification Date during usual business hours at any principal transfer office of the Transfer Agent, or such other place or places in Canada as the Partnership may agree, accompanied by (1) payment or evidence of payment of the tax (if any) payable as provided in this Section 5.3; and (2) the certificate or certificates representing the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which the Holder thereof desires to exercise the Reclassification Privilege with the notice of reclassification on the back thereof or other appropriate notice of reclassification duly endorsed by the Holder, or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, in which Election Notice such Holder may also elect to reclassify part only of the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented by such certificate or certificates not theretofore called for redemption in which event the Partnership will issue and deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder, at the expense of the Partnership, a new certificate representing the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented by such certificate or certificates that have not been reclassified. Each Election Notice will be irrevocable once received by the Partnership.  (b)If the Partnership does not receive an Election Notice from a Holder of Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units during the notice period therefor, then the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall be deemed not to have been reclassified (except in the case of an automatic reclassification pursuant to Section 5.2).  (c)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, in the event the Partnership is required to reclassify all remaining Outstanding Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units into Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on the applicable Series 1 Reclassification Date as provided for in Section 5.2, the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which the Holders have not previously elected to reclassify will be reclassified on the Series 1 Reclassification Date into Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units and the Holders thereof will be deemed to be Holders of Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Series 1 Reclassification Date and will be entitled, upon surrender during usual business hours at any principal transfer office of the Transfer Agent, or such other place or places in Canada as the Partnership may agree, of the certificate or certificates representing Series 1 Preferred Limited  A-11


Partnership Units not previously provided for reclassification, to receive a certificate or certificates representing the same number of Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in the manner and subject to the terms and provisions as provided in this Section 5.3.  (d)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, as promptly as practicable after the Series 1 Reclassification Date, the Partnership will issue and deliver, or cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so reclassified in accordance with this Section 5, a certificate or certificates, issued in the name of, or in such name or names as may be directed by, such Holder representing the number of fully-paid and non-assessable Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units and the number of remaining Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, if any, to which such Holder is entitled. Such reclassification will be deemed to have been made at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Series 1 Reclassification Date, so that the rights of the Holder of such Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units as the Holder thereof will cease at such time and the person or persons entitled to receive the Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units upon such reclassification will be treated for all purposes as having become the Holder or Holders of record of such Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at such time.  (e)The Holder of any Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit on the record date for any Series 1 Distributions declared payable on such unit will be entitled to such distributions notwithstanding that such unit is reclassified into a Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit after such record date and on or before the date of the payment of such distribution.

Any such notice shall be validly and effectively given on the date on which it is sent and such notice shall be given and sent by posting the same in a postage paid envelope addressed to each Holder of Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed at the last address of such Holder as it appears on the securities register of the Partnership, or in the case of joint Holders, to the address of that one whose name appears first in the securities register of the Partnership as one of such joint Holders or, in the event of the address of any Holder not so appearing, then to the address of such Holder last known to the Partnership, provided that the accidental failure or omission to give any such notices as aforesaid to one or more of such Holders shall not affect the validity of the redemption as to the other Holders to be redeemed. Such notice shall set out the number of such Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units held by the person to whom it is addressed which are to be redeemed and the Redemption Price and shall also set out the date on which the redemption is to take place.

Such payment shall be made by cheque payable at par at any branch in Canada of the Partnerships bankers for the time being or by any other reasonable means the Partnership deems desirable and shall be a full and complete discharge of the Partnerships obligation to pay the Redemption Price owed to the Holders of Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption unless the cheque is not honoured when presented for payment. From and after the date specified in any such notice, the Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption shall cease to be entitled to Series 2 Distributions and the Holders thereof shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof, except to receive the Redemption Price therefor, provided that if payment of the Redemption Price shall not be duly made by the Partnership on or before the redemption date, the Partnership shall forthwith thereafter return the Holders deposited unit certificate or certificates to the Holder. At any time after notice of redemption is given as aforesaid, the Partnership shall have the right to deposit the Redemption Price of any or all Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), or such part thereof as at the time of deposit has not been claimed by the Holders entitled thereto, with any chartered bank or banks or with any trust company or trust companies in Canada named in the notice of redemption to the credit of a special account or accounts in trust for the respective Holders of such units, to be paid to them respectively upon surrender to such bank or banks or trust company or trust companies of the certificate or certificates representing the same, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Upon such deposit or deposits being made, such units shall be  A-24


deemed to be redeemed on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption. After the Partnership has made a deposit as aforesaid with respect to any units, the Holders thereof shall not, from and after the redemption date, be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof and the rights of the Holders thereof shall be limited to receiving a proportion of the amounts so deposited applicable to such units, without interest. Any interest allowed on such deposit shall belong to the Partnership. Subject to applicable law, redemption monies that are represented by a cheque which has not been presented to the Partnerships bankers for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed (including monies held in deposit as provided for above) for a period of two years from the date specified for redemption shall be forfeited to the Partnership.  5.Reclassification of Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units  5.1Reclassification into Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at the Option of the Holder  (a)Holders of Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will have the right, at their option, on each Series 2 Reclassification Date, to reclassify, subject to the applicable law and the terms and provisions hereof, all or any part of the then Outstanding Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Units registered in the name of the Holder into Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on the basis of one (1) Series 1 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit for each Series 2 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit.

Such notice shall set out the number of such Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units held by the person to whom it is addressed which are to be redeemed and the Redemption Price and shall also set out the date on which the redemption is to take place. On and after the date so specified for redemption, the Partnership shall pay or cause to be paid to the Holders to be redeemed the Redemption Price on presentation and surrender, at any place within Canada designated by such notice, of the certificate or certificates for such Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Such payment (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership) shall be made by cheque payable at par at any branch in Canada of the Partnerships bankers for the time being or by any other reasonable means the Partnership deems desirable and shall be a full and complete discharge of the Partnerships obligation to pay the Redemption Price owed to the Holders of Series 3 Preferred Limited  A-39


Partnership Units so called for redemption unless the cheque is not honoured when presented for payment. From and after the date specified in any such notice, the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption shall cease to be entitled to Series 3 Distributions and the Holders thereof shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof, except to receive the Redemption Price therefor, provided that if payment of the Redemption Price shall not be duly made by the Partnership on or before the redemption date, the Partnership shall forthwith thereafter return the Holders deposited unit certificate or certificates to the Holder. At any time after notice of redemption is given as aforesaid, the Partnership shall have the right to deposit the Redemption Price of any or all Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), or such part thereof as at the time of deposit has not been claimed by the Holders entitled thereto, with any chartered bank or banks or with any trust company or trust companies in Canada named in the notice of redemption to the credit of a special account or accounts in trust for the respective Holders of such units, to be paid to them respectively upon surrender to such bank or banks or trust company or trust companies of the certificate or certificates representing the same, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Upon such deposit or deposits being made, such units shall be deemed to be redeemed on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption. After the Partnership has made a deposit as aforesaid with respect to any units, the Holders thereof shall not, from and after the redemption date, be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof and the rights of the Holders thereof shall be limited to receiving a proportion of the amounts so deposited applicable to such units, without interest. Any interest allowed on such deposit shall belong to the Partnership.

(c)Holders of Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall not be entitled to reclassify their units into Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on a Series 3 Reclassification Date if the Partnership determines that there would remain Outstanding on the Series 3 Reclassification Date less than 1,000,000 Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units after taking into account all Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice of reclassification into Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided and all Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice for reclassification into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided.

Each Election Notice will be irrevocable once received by the Partnership.  (b)If the Partnership does not receive an Election Notice from a Holder of Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units during the notice period therefor, then the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall be deemed not to have been reclassified (except in the case of an automatic reclassification pursuant to Section 5.2).  (c)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, in the event the Partnership is required to reclassify all remaining Outstanding Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units into Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on the applicable Series 3 Reclassification Date as provided for in Section 5.2, the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which the Holders have not previously elected to reclassify will be reclassified on the Series 3 Reclassification Date into Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units and the Holders thereof will be deemed to be Holders of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Series 3 Reclassification Date and will be entitled, upon surrender during usual business hours at any principal transfer office of the Transfer Agent, or such other place or places in Canada as the Partnership may agree, of the certificate or certificates representing Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units not previously provided for reclassification, to receive a certificate or certificates representing the same number of Series 4 Preferred  A-42


Limited Partnership Units in the manner and subject to the terms and provisions as provided in this Section 5.3.  (d)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, as promptly as practicable after the Series 3 Reclassification Date, the Partnership will issue and deliver, or cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so reclassified in accordance with this Section 5, a certificate or certificates, issued in the name of, or in such name or names as may be directed by, such Holder representing the number of fully-paid and non-assessable Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units and the number of remaining Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, if any, to which such Holder is entitled. Such reclassification will be deemed to have been made at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Series 3 Reclassification Date, so that the rights of the Holder of such Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units as the Holder thereof will cease at such time and the person or persons entitled to receive the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units upon such reclassification will be treated for all purposes as having become the Holder or Holders of record of such Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at such time.  (e)The Holder of any Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit on the record date for any Series 3 Distributions declared payable on such unit will be entitled to such distributions notwithstanding that such unit is reclassified into a Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit after such record date and on or before the date of the payment of such distribution.  (f)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, the issuance of certificates for the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units upon the reclassification of Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will be made without charge to the reclassifying Holders for any fee in respect of the issuance of such certificates or the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented thereby; provided, however, that the Partnership will not be required to pay any tax that may be imposed upon such Holder as a result of the reclassification or the issuance of such certificate representing such Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units or any security transfer taxes, and the Partnership will not be required to issue or deliver a certificate or certificates in a name or names other than that of the Holder of the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units reclassified unless the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof has paid to the Partnership the amount of any such security transfer tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Partnership that such tax has been paid.  5.4Status of Reclassified Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units  The reclassification of Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units into Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall not give rise to a redemption or cancellation of such Preferred Units.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the deduction attributable to any amount treated as a guaranteed payment under this Section 11 shall be specially allocated to the Partners in a manner determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion that is not inconsistent with the applicable provisions of the Code and Treasury Regulations.  12.Unissued or Reclassified Units  Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units not issued or that have been issued and reclassified by the Partnership shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units.  13.No Sinking Fund  Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are not subject to the operation of a sinking fund.  14.Notices  If the General Partner determines that mail service is or is threatened to be interrupted at the time when the Partnership is required or elects to give or send any Notice (including  A-46

The posting or delivery of such cheque or the payment of the Series 4 Distributions by any other reasonable means on or before the date on which such distribution is to be paid to a Holder shall be deemed to be payment and shall satisfy and discharge all liabilities for the payment of such Distributions to the extent of the sum represented thereby (plus the amount of any tax required to be deducted and withheld as aforesaid and remitted to the proper tax authority) unless, if applicable, such cheque is not paid on due presentation. Subject to applicable law, distributions which are represented by a cheque which has not been presented to the Partnerships bankers for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed for a period of two years from the date on which they were declared to be payable shall be forfeited to the Partnership.  2.2Distribution for Other than a Full Quarterly Floating Rate Period  Subject to the Section 2.1, for any period that is less than a full Quarterly Floating Rate Period, with respect to any Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit (i) that is issued,  A-53

In respect of any period that is less than a full Quarterly Floating Rate Period, a distribution in an amount per Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit equal to the amount obtained (rounded to four decimal places) when the product of the Floating Quarterly Distribution Rate and C$25.00 is multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days elapsed in the relevant period and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the Quarterly Floating Rate Period in which such period falls.  3.Rights on Liquidation  In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of assets of the Partnership among its unitholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs, unless the Partnership is continued under the election to reconstitute and continue the Partnership pursuant to Section 13.2.2 of the Agreement, the Holders shall be entitled to receive C$25.00 per Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit held by them, together with all accrued (whether or not declared) and unpaid Series 4 Distributions up to but excluding the date of payment or distribution (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), before any amounts shall be paid or any assets of the Partnership distributed to the holders of any Junior Securities. Upon payment of such amounts, the Holders shall not be entitled to share in any further distribution of the assets of the Partnership.  4.Redemption at the Option of the Partnership  The Partnership may not redeem any of the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units prior to December 31, 2020. Thereafter, the Partnership may, subject to applicable law, the solvency requirements under Bermuda law and to the provisions described under Section 6 below, upon giving notice as hereinafter provided, at its option, at any time, without the consent of the Holders redeem all, or from time to time any part, of the then Outstanding Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units by the payment of an amount in cash for each Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit so redeemed equal to (i) in the case of redemptions on December 31, 2025 and on December 31 every five years thereafter (each a Series 4 Reclassification Date), C$25.00, or (ii) C$25.50 in the case of redemptions on any date which is not a Series 4 Reclassification Date on or after December 31, 2020, in each case including all accrued and unpaid Series 4 Distributions up to but excluding the date of payment or distribution (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership) (the Redemption Price).  If less than all of the then Outstanding Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are at any time to be redeemed, then the particular Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis disregarding fractions or, if the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are at such time listed on such exchange,  A-54


with the consent of the Toronto Stock Exchange, in such manner as the General Partner in its sole discretion may, by resolution determine.  The Partnership shall give notice in writing not less than 25 days nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable Series 4 Reclassification Date or such other date on which the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are to be redeemed of its intention to redeem such Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to each person who at the date of giving such notice is the Holder of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed. Any such notice shall be validly and effectively given on the date on which it is sent and such notice shall be given and sent by posting the same in a postage paid envelope addressed to each Holder of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed at the last address of such Holder as it appears on the securities register of the Partnership, or in the case of joint Holders, to the address of that one whose name appears first in the securities register of the Partnership as one of such joint Holders or, in the event of the address of any Holder not so appearing, then to the address of such Holder last known to the Partnership, provided that the accidental failure or omission to give any such notices as aforesaid to one or more of such Holders shall not affect the validity of the redemption as to the other Holders to be redeemed. Such notice shall set out the number of such Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units held by the person to whom it is addressed which are to be redeemed and the Redemption Price and shall also set out the date on which the redemption is to take place. On and after the date so specified for redemption, the Partnership shall pay or cause to be paid to the Holders to be redeemed the Redemption Price on presentation and surrender, at any place within Canada designated by such notice, of the certificate or certificates for such Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Such payment (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership) shall be made by cheque payable at par at any branch in Canada of the Partnerships bankers for the time being or by any other reasonable means the Partnership deems desirable and shall be a full and complete discharge of the Partnerships obligation to pay the Redemption Price owed to the Holders of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption unless the cheque is not honoured when presented for payment. From and after the date specified in any such notice, the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption shall cease to be entitled to Series 4 Distributions and the Holders thereof shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof, except to receive the Redemption Price therefor, provided that if payment of the Redemption Price shall not be duly made by the Partnership on or before the redemption date, the Partnership shall forthwith thereafter return the Holders deposited unit certificate or certificates to the Holder. At any time after notice of redemption is given as aforesaid, the Partnership shall have the right to deposit the Redemption Price of any or all Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), or such part thereof as at the time of deposit has not been claimed by the Holders entitled thereto, with any chartered bank or banks or with any trust company or trust companies in Canada named in the notice of redemption to the credit of a special account or accounts in trust for the respective Holders of such units, to be paid to them respectively upon surrender to such bank or banks or trust company or trust companies of the certificate or certificates representing the same, subject to the provisions of  A-55


Section 17. Upon such deposit or deposits being made, such units shall be deemed to be redeemed on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption. After the Partnership has made a deposit as aforesaid with respect to any units, the Holders thereof shall not, from and after the redemption date, be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof and the rights of the Holders thereof shall be limited to receiving a proportion of the amounts so deposited applicable to such units, without interest. Any interest allowed on such deposit shall belong to the Partnership. Subject to applicable law, redemption monies that are represented by a cheque which has not been presented to the Partnerships bankers for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed (including monies held in deposit as provided for above) for a period of two years from the date specified for redemption shall be forfeited to the Partnership.  5.Reclassification of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units  5.1Reclassification into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at the Option of the Holder  (a)Holders of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will have the right, at their option, on each Series 4 Reclassification Date, to reclassify, subject to the applicable law and the terms and provisions hereof, all or any part of the then Outstanding Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units registered in the name of the Holder into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on the basis of one (1) Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit for each Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit.

(c)Holders of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall not be entitled to reclassify their units into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on a  A-56

The Partnership will give written notice thereof to all affected Holders of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at least seven (7) days prior to the applicable Series 4 Reclassification Date and, subject to the provisions of Section 17, will issue and deliver, or cause to be delivered, prior to such Series 4 Reclassification Date, at the expense of the Partnership, to such Holders of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, who have surrendered for reclassification any endorsed certificate or certificates representing Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, new certificates representing the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented by any certificate or certificates surrendered as aforesaid.  5.2Automatic Reclassification  If the Partnership determines that there would remain Outstanding on a Series 4 Reclassification Date less than 1,000,000 Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units after taking into account all Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice of reclassification into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided and all Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which a notice of reclassification into Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units has been provided, then, all, but not part, of the remaining Outstanding Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will automatically be reclassified into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on the basis of one (1) Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit for each Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit on the applicable Series 4 Reclassification Date. The Partnership shall give notice in writing thereof to the Holders of such remaining Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at least seven (7) days prior to the Series 4 Reclassification Date.  5.3Manner of Reclassification  (a)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, the Reclassification Privilege may be exercised by notice in writing (an Election Notice) given not earlier than the 30th day prior to a Series 4 Reclassification Date but not later than 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the 15th day preceding the applicable Series 4 Reclassification Date during usual business hours at any principal transfer office of the Transfer Agent, or such other place or places in Canada as the Partnership may agree, accompanied by (1) payment or evidence of payment of the tax (if any) payable as provided in this Section 5.3; and (2) the certificate or certificates representing the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which the Holder thereof desires to exercise the Reclassification Privilege with the notice of reclassification on the back thereof or other appropriate notice of reclassification  A-57


duly endorsed by the Holder, or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, in which Election Notice such Holder may also elect to reclassify part only of the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented by such certificate or certificates not theretofore called for redemption in which event the Partnership will issue and deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder, at the expense of the Partnership, a new certificate representing the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented by such certificate or certificates that have not been reclassified. Each Election Notice will be irrevocable once received by the Partnership.  (b)If the Partnership does not receive an Election Notice from a Holder of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units during the notice period therefor, then the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall be deemed not to have been reclassified (except in the case of an automatic reclassification pursuant to Section 5.2).  (c)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, in the event the Partnership is required to reclassify all remaining Outstanding Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units on the applicable Series 4 Reclassification Date as provided for in Section 5.2, the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in respect of which the Holders have not previously elected to reclassify will be reclassified on the Series 4 Reclassification Date into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units and the Holders thereof will be deemed to be Holders of Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Series 4 Reclassification Date and will be entitled, upon surrender during usual business hours at any principal transfer office of the Transfer Agent, or such other place or places in Canada as the Partnership may agree, of the certificate or certificates representing Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units not previously provided for reclassification, to receive a certificate or certificates representing the same number of Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units in the manner and subject to the terms and provisions as provided in this Section 5.3.  (d)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, as promptly as practicable after the Series 4 Reclassification Date, the Partnership will issue and deliver, or cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so reclassified in accordance with this Section 5, a certificate or certificates, issued in the name of, or in such name or names as may be directed by, such Holder representing the number of fully-paid and non-assessable Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units and the number of remaining Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units, if any, to which such Holder is entitled. Such reclassification will be deemed to have been made at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Series 4 Reclassification Date, so that the rights of the Holder of such Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units as the Holder thereof will cease at such time and the person or persons entitled to receive the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units upon such reclassification will be  A-58


treated for all purposes as having become the Holder or Holders of record of such Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units at such time.  (e)The Holder of any Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit on the record date for any Series 4 Distributions declared payable on such unit will be entitled to such distributions notwithstanding that such unit is reclassified into a Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit after such record date and on or before the date of the payment of such distribution.  (f)Subject to the provisions of Section 17, the issuance of certificates for the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units upon the reclassification of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units will be made without charge to the reclassifying Holders for any fee in respect of the issuance of such certificates or the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units represented thereby; provided, however, that the Partnership will not be required to pay any tax that may be imposed upon such Holder as a result of the reclassification or the issuance of such certificate representing such Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units or any security transfer taxes, and the Partnership will not be required to issue or deliver a certificate or certificates in a name or names other than that of the Holder of the Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units reclassified unless the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof has paid to the Partnership the amount of any such security transfer tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Partnership that such tax has been paid.  5.4Status of Reclassified Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units  The reclassification of Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units into Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units shall not give rise to a redemption or cancellation of such Preferred Units.  5.5Right Not to Deliver Series 3 Preferred Limited Partnership Units  On the exercise of the Reclassification Privilege by a Holder, the Partnership reserves the right not to reclassify the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units held by any Ineligible Person.  6.Restrictions on Distributions and Retirement and Issue of Units  Subject to the solvency requirements under Bermuda law and so long as any of the Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are Outstanding, the Partnership shall not, without the approval of the Holders:  (a)declare, pay or set apart for payment any distributions (other than distributions payable in Junior Securities) in respect of any Junior Securities;  (b)except out of the net cash proceeds of a substantially concurrent issue of Junior Securities, redeem or call for redemption, purchase or otherwise pay off, retire or make any return of capital in respect of any Junior Securities;  A-59

In the event of such non-payment, and for only so long as any such distributions remain in arrears, the Holders will be entitled to receive notice of and to attend each meeting of unitholders of the Partnership (other than any meetings at which only holders of another specified class or series are entitled to vote) and such Holders shall have the right, at any such meeting, to one vote for each Series 4 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit held.
