Agreement, that the Security Documents shall continue to secure the obligations and liabilities of Amalco thereunder, and to confirm the covenants, mortgages, charges, pledges and security interests contained in and created by the Security
Documents. 
  
 NOW THEREFORE THIS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT WITNESSES THAT in
consideration of the consent by the Lenders to the Amalgamation, and for other good and valuable consideration now paid to Amalco (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged), Amalco hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees with
the Agent and the Lenders as follows: 
  

	1.	Amalco shall continue to be liable for all of the liabilities and obligations of Old Pope & Talbot to the Lenders and the Agent, including without limitation the liabilities and
obligations of Old Pope & Talbot under the Credit Agreement and the Security Documents. 








	2.	Amalco shall be bound by and shall perform and observe all of the terms, covenants, agreements, provisos and conditions contained in the Credit Agreement and the Security Documents,
all as if Amalco had been the party originally executing the Credit Agreement and the Security Documents. 

  

	3.	Without in any way limiting, prejudicing or impairing any of the mortgages, charges, pledges and security interests contained in and created by the Security Documents, Amalco hereby
confirms and restates all such mortgages, charges, pledges and security interests contained in and created by the Security Documents and, to the extent necessary, hereby mortgages, charges, pledges and grants a security interest in such of the
property, assets and undertakings of Amalco as provided for in the Security Documents. Amalco hereby confirms that such of the property, assets and undertakings of Amalco as provided for in the Security Documents acquired after the date hereof,
shall be subject to and charged, where applicable, by the mortgages, charges, pledges and security interests contained in and created by the Security Documents. 

  

	4.	This Confirmation is in addition to and not in substitution for any of the Security Documents. 

  

	5.	Amalco shall, forthwith at all times and at Amalco’s sole expense, execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as the Agent or the Lenders may
reasonably require in order to give effect to the intent of this Confirmation.

Obligations, or any other agreement or instrument. 

  
 2.3
Demand. 
  
 If either of the Borrowers shall fail to pay or
cause to be paid all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable pursuant to the Credit Agreement or otherwise, then the Agent for and on behalf of the Lenders shall be entitled, by notice to the
Guarantor, to make a demand upon the Guarantor for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or that portion thereof which such Borrower has failed to pay. The Guaranteed Obligations or any portion thereof in respect of which demand shall have been
made pursuant hereto shall become immediately due and payable by the Guarantor under this Guarantee upon such demand for payment being made, and shall bear interest from the date of such demand at the rate or rates provided in the Credit Agreement
or otherwise in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or that portion thereof which such Borrower has failed to pay. The Guarantor hereby expressly acknowledges that any demand for payment under this Guarantee shall be made on behalf of all of the
Lenders by the Agent. Any such demand given in conformity with this Section 2.3 shall be deemed validly given for all purposes of this Guarantee and shall be binding upon the Guarantor, the Agent and the Lenders to the same extent as if signed
individually by each Lender. 
  
 2.4 Remedies. 
  
 The Agent may, at its option, proceed against the Guarantor under this
Guarantee to enforce any of the Guaranteed Obligations when due without first proceeding against either of the Borrowers or any other person and without first resorting to any direct or indirect security, any other guarantee or any other remedy. The
Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives diligence, presentment, demand for payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, renounces the benefit of division and discussion, and unconditionally waives any requirement that the Agent and the Lenders
exhaust any right, power or remedy against the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Facility Documents, any other guarantee or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any
other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations, before proceeding against the Guarantor under this Guarantee. The Guarantor hereby waives any duty on the part of the Agent or any of the Lenders to disclose to the Guarantor
anything which the Agent or such Lender may now or hereafter know concerning either of the Borrowers, any other person or any other matter whatsoever, even if the Agent or any of the Lenders has reason to believe any such information materially
increases the risk beyond that which the Guarantor intends to assume hereunder. 
  
 2.5 Set-Off. 
  
 Following a declaration of
acceleration under Section 12.2 of the Credit Agreement, the Agent and the Lenders may at any time set-off and apply any deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) or other indebtedness owing by the Agent or any Lender to or
for the credit of the Guarantor against any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Agent or such Lender shall promptly notify the Guarantor of any such set-off or application, provided that 
  

 - 4 - 







 the failure to do so shall not affect the validity thereof. The rights of the Agent and the Lenders under this Section
2.5 are in addition to any other rights and remedies, including any other rights of set-off, that they may have. 
  
 2.6 Amount of Guaranteed Obligations. 
  
 Any account settled or stated by or between the Agent and a Borrower or, if any such account has not been so settled or stated immediately before demand
for payment under this Guarantee, any account thereafter stated by the Agent shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, fraud, dishonesty or improper conduct, be accepted by the Guarantor as prima facie evidence of the amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations which at the date of the account so settled or stated is due by such Borrower to the Agent or the Lenders or remains unpaid by such Borrower to the Agent or the Lenders. 
  
 2.7 Payment Free and Clear of Taxes. 
  
 Any and all payments by the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for Taxes unless such
Taxes are required by applicable Law to be deducted or withheld. If the Guarantor shall be required by applicable Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Guarantee: 
  

	 	(a)	the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional
amounts paid under this Section 2.7) the Agent or the Lenders receive an amount equal to the sum they would have received if no deduction or withholding had been made; 

  

	 	(b)	the Guarantor shall make such deductions or withholdings; and 

  

	 	(c)	the Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation or other authority in accordance with applicable Law. 

  
 The Guarantor shall indemnify and save harmless the Agent and the Lenders for the full amount
of Taxes levied by any jurisdiction in Canada or the United States of America on, or in relation to, any amount payable by the Guarantor hereunder (other than Taxes imposed on the income or capital of the Lenders). Payment under this indemnity shall
be made within 30 days from the date the Agent makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such Taxes submitted to the Guarantor by the Agent shall be conclusive evidence, absent manifest demonstrable error, of the amount due
from the Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders. Any such certificate shall refer to the provision of Law under which such Taxes are levied and shall contain an explanation relating to and a calculation of the amount due from the Guarantor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantor shall not be required to pay any Taxes or indemnify a Lender in respect of Taxes payable to any Governmental Body in Canada which are levied, withheld, deducted or paid on payments to such Lender by
reason of the fact that such Lender is a Non-Resident of Canada. 
  
 2.8
Subrogation and Repayment. 
  
 Upon receipt by the Agent of
any payments by the Guarantor on account of its liability under this Guarantee, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to claim repayment of such amount 
  

 - 5 - 







 against either of the Borrowers until the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts due to the Agent and the Lenders
under the Credit Agreement have been paid or repaid in full. In the case of the liquidation, winding-up or bankruptcy of either of the Borrowers (whether voluntary or compulsory) or in the event that either of the Borrowers shall make a bulk sale of
any of its assets within the provisions of any bulk sales legislation or any composition with creditors or scheme of arrangement, the Agent shall have the right to rank in priority to the Guarantor for the full claims of the Agent and the Lenders in
respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and receive all dividends or other payments in respect thereof until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full, and the Guarantor shall continue to be liable for any balance of the Guaranteed Obligations
which may be owing to the Agent or the Lenders by either of the Borrowers. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of any subrogation rights at any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations have not been paid in full, such amount
shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 
  
 2.9 Postponement and Assignment. 
  
 As security for the performance of the Guarantor’s obligations
hereunder, the Guarantor assigns to the Agent all claims of the Guarantor against the Borrowers and any other guarantors, and, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, except as otherwise expressly permitted under the Credit Agreement,
subordinates and postpones the payment of all such claims to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Guarantor shall hold all of its claims against each Borrower and the other guarantors as
agent and trustee of the Agent and shall collect, enforce and prove all such claims in accordance with the Credit Agreement and this Guarantee. Any monies received by the Guarantor in respect thereof shall, upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default, be paid over to the Agent. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, without the prior written consent of the Agent, the Guarantor shall not release or discharge any of its claims against either of the Borrowers or any other
guarantor, permit the prescription of any such claims pursuant to any Law, assign any such claims to any person other than the Agent, or ask for or obtain any security or negotiable paper for or other evidence of any such claims except for the
purpose of delivering the same to the Agent. For greater certainty, and notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Guarantor may deal with any claims against the Borrower or any other
guarantor as it sees fit, and may retain for its own use absolutely any payments received by the Guarantor in respect of any claims against the Borrower, free and clear of the provisions of this postponement and assignment 
  
 2.10 Rights on Subrogation. 
  
 If the Guarantor acquires any right of subrogation by reason of a payment
under or pursuant to this Guarantee, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to vote as a Lender under the provisions of the Credit Agreement or otherwise until the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts due to the Agent and the Lenders under the
Credit Agreement have been paid or repaid in full to the Agent or the Lenders. 
  
 2.11 Continuing Guarantee. 
  
 The obligations of
the Guarantor under this Guarantee constitute a continuing guarantee and shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all of the Guaranteed 
  

 - 6 - 







 Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantor shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Agent or the Lenders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of either of the Borrowers or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 
  
 2.12 Third Party Beneficiaries. 
  
 Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Guarantee, nothing herein is
intended or shall be construed to confer upon or to give any person other than the Agent and the Lenders any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee. 
  
 ARTICLE 3 
 CURRENCY 
  
 3.1
Currency of Payment. 
  
 Unless prohibited by law, payments
by the Guarantor hereunder shall be made in the currency of the relevant Guaranteed Obligation (the “Original Currency”). 
  
 3.2 Judgment Currency. 
  
 If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder to a Lender from the Original Currency into any
currency other than the Liability Currency (the “Judgment Currency”) the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking
procedures the Lender could purchase the Original Currency with the Judgment Currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is paid or satisfied. The obligations of the Guarantor in respect of any sum due in the Original
Currency to the Lender under any of the Credit Facility Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Judgment Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Lender of any sum adjudged to be so
due in such Judgment Currency, the Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
Lender in the Original Currency, the Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Lender against such loss, and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due
to the Lender in the Original Currency the Lender agrees to remit such excess to the Guarantor. 
  
 ARTICLE 4 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 4.1 Representations and Warranties of Guarantor.

pledged or encumbered to secure a guarantee (including this Guarantee), after entering into this Guarantee or giving any financial assistance hereunder, would not be less than the aggregate of the Guarantor’s liabilities and stated capital of
all classes.

continuing, the Agent shall deliver promptly to the Debtor all notices or other communications received by it or its nominee(s) as such registered owner and, upon demand and receipt of payment of any necessary expenses thereof, shall issue to the
Debtor or its order a proxy to vote and take all action with respect to such securities not inconsistent with any of the Debtor’s covenants herein or in the Guarantee. During the continuance of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement,

 11. Use of Property. Provided that no Default has occurred and is continuing, and
subject to any restriction in any agreement with the Agent or the Lenders, the Debtor may deal with Inventory in the ordinary course of its business and for the purposes of carrying on its business, and sell, exchange, transfer, assign, lease or
otherwise dispose of any Collateral which has become worn out or unserviceable or any Collateral which has become unnecessary for use in the operation of the Debtor’s business. 
  
 12. Waiver by the Agent. Any breach by the Debtor of any of the provisions contained in this Agreement or any default by the Debtor
in the observance or performance of any covenant or condition required to be observed or performed by the Debtor hereunder may only be waived by the Agent in writing, provided that no such waiver by the Agent shall extend to or be taken in any
manner to affect any subsequent breach or default or the rights resulting therefrom. 
  
 13. Enforcement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the Security Interests will immediately become enforceable. To enforce and realize on the Security Interests, the Agent and the Lenders may take any
action permitted by law or in equity, as it may deem expedient, and in particular, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, may do any of the following: 
  

	 	(a)	appoint, by instrument, a receiver, receiver and manager or receiver-manager (a “Receiver”) of Collateral, with or without bond, as the Agent or Lenders may determine, and
from time to time in their absolute discretion remove such Receiver and appoint another in its stead. A Receiver so appointed, in addition to all powers conferred on it by law, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall have the
following powers: 

  

	 	(i)	to take possession, custody and control of, collect and get in the Collateral or any part thereof, and for that purpose to take any proceedings in the name of the Debtor or
otherwise; 

  

	 	(ii)	to carry on or concur in carrying on the business of the Debtor in respect of the Collateral, and for that purpose to raise money on Collateral in priority to this Agreement or
otherwise;

	 	(iv)	to make any arrangement or compromise in respect of the Collateral which the Receiver shall think expedient in the interest of the Agent and the Lenders, including any deferral of
payment for Collateral upon disposition; 

  

	 	(b)	to take possession of Collateral or enter upon any premises of the Debtor and take possession of Collateral with power to exclude the Debtor, its agents and its servants therefrom,
without becoming liable as a mortgagee in possession; 

  

	 	(c)	to preserve, protect and maintain Collateral and make such replacements thereof and repairs and additions thereto as the Agent and the Lenders may deem advisable;


  

	 	(d)	to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or any part of Collateral, whether by public or private sale or lease or otherwise, in such manner, at such price as can be reasonably
obtained therefor and on such terms as to credit and with such conditions of sale and stipulations as to title or conveyance or evidence of title or otherwise as to the Agent and the Lenders may seem reasonable, provided that if any sale is on
credit, the Debtor will not be entitled to be credited with the proceeds of any such sale, lease or other disposition until the moneys therefor are actually received; 

  

	 	(e)	to exercise all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Act in respect of the Collateral; and 

  

	 	(f)	to dispose of any of the Collateral in the condition which it was in at the date possession of it was taken, or after any commercially reasonable repair, processing or preparation
thereof for disposition. 

  
 Any Receiver so appointed shall be
deemed to be the agent of the Debtor, and the Debtor shall be solely responsible for the Receiver’s acts or defaults and for the Receiver’s remuneration and expenses, and the Agent and the Lenders shall not be, in any way, responsible for
any misconduct or negligence on the part of the Receiver. The rights and powers conferred under this Section are in supplement of and not in substitution for any other rights that the Agent and the Lenders may have from time to time. 
  
 14. Proceeds of Enforcement. Subject to the claims, if any, of the creditors of the
Debtor ranking in priority to the Security Interests, all amounts realized from the disposition of Collateral pursuant to this Agreement will be applied as follows: 
  

	 	(a)	first, in payment of all costs, charges and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements as between solicitor and own client) incurred by the Agent and the Lenders in connection
with or incidental to the exercise by the Agent and the Lenders of all or any of the powers granted to them pursuant to this Agreement, including the expenses of seizing, repossessing, holding, repairing, processing or preparing for disposition and
disposing of Collateral and the appointment of the Receiver and the exercise by the Receiver of all or any of the powers granted to it 

  

 - 9 - 








	 	    	pursuant to this Agreement, including the Receiver’s reasonable remuneration and all outgoings properly payable by the Receiver; 

  

	 	(b)	second, in or toward payment of the Obligations to the Lenders. 

  
 Subject to applicable law and the claims, if any, of other creditors of the Debtor, any surplus will be paid to the Debtor. 
  
 15. Additional Powers. In addition to the rights and powers provided herein and under
the Act, the Agent, the Lenders and the Receiver, as the case may be, shall, upon and during the continuance of a Default, have the following rights and powers upon the security constituted hereby becoming enforceable: 
  

	 	(a)	to demand, sue for and receive any Accounts with or without notice to the Debtor, give effectual receipts and discharges therefor, compromise any which may seem bad or doubtful to
the Agent and the Lenders and give time for payment thereof with or without security; 

  

	 	(b)	to take control of any Proceeds arising from Collateral; 

  

	 	(c)	to apply any money taken as Collateral to the satisfaction of the Obligations as the Agent and the Lenders may deem appropriate; and 

  

	 	(d)	to hold as additional security any increase, profits or moneys resulting from Collateral, and apply any such increase, profits or money to the Obligations. 


 
 The Debtor acknowledges that, to the extent the Agent, the Lenders or the Receiver has a
legal duty to use reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession, that duty shall not include, in the case of chattel paper, a security or an instrument, taking any steps to preserve rights against other persons.

  
 In the event that the Security Interests become enforceable, all moneys or any
other form of payment received by the Debtor in payment of any Account or any payment on or other proceeds of Collateral received by the Debtor, whether before or after notice of any Security Interest created hereby is given to account debtors,
shall be received and held by the Debtor in trust for the Agent and shall be turned over to the Agent upon request. 
  
 16. Notice of Disposition. The Debtor shall be entitled to notice of any intended disposition of Collateral, such notice to be given in accordance with the
provisions of the Act, except that notice is not required to be given where: 
  

	 	(a)	Collateral is perishable; 

  

	 	(b)	the Agent believes on reasonable grounds that Collateral will decline substantially in value if not disposed of immediately; 

  

	 	(c)	the cost of care and storage of Collateral is disproportionately large relative to its value; 

  

 - 10 - 








	 	(d)	the Collateral is a security or an instrument that is to be disposed of by sale in an organized market that handles large volumes of transactions between many different sellers and
many different buyers; 

  

	 	(e)	the Collateral is money other than a medium of exchange authorized by the Parliament of Canada or the United States; 

  

	 	(f)	a Court so orders; or 

  

	 	(g)	after Default, every person entitled to receive notice consents to the disposition of the Collateral without notice. 

  
 17. Copy of Financing Statement. The Debtor hereby expressly waives the right to
receive a copy of any financing statement that may be registered by the Agent under the Act, or a copy of the statement confirming the registration of any financing statement, in connection with any Security Interests created under this Agreement,
as amended from time to time. The Agent may change any financing statement in its sole discretion at any time without the consent of the Debtor. The Agent shall use reasonable commercial efforts to provide the Debtor with a copy of any financing
statement or financing change statement in connection with the Security Interests, but its failure to do so shall not in any way affect or prejudice the validity, enforceability or priority of any of the Security Interests or result in any liability
on the part of the Agent or the Lenders. 
  
 18. Liability to Advance.
Neither the preparation, execution, perfection nor registration of this Agreement or the advance of any moneys shall bind the Lenders to make any advance or loan or further advance or loan or renew any note or extend any time for payment of any
indebtedness or liability of the Debtor to the Lenders. 
  
 19. Dealing with
Security Interests. The Agent and the Lenders may grant extensions of time and other indulgences, take and give up any of the Security Interests, or modify or abstain from perfecting or taking advantage of any of the Security Interests, accept
compositions, grant releases and discharges thereof and otherwise deal with the Debtor, debtors of the Debtor, sureties and others and with any of the Security Interests as the Agent and the Lenders may see fit without prejudice to the liability of
the Debtor or the right of the Agent and the Lenders to hold and realize upon any of the Security Interests. The Agent and the Lenders shall not be accountable to the Debtor for the value of any of the Security Interests released except for any
moneys actually received by the Agent or the Lenders. 
  
 20. General. This
Agreement shall be a continuing agreement in every respect for the payment of the Obligations and it shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Obligations shall be paid and satisfied in full. In the event any provisions of this
Agreement shall be deemed invalid or void by any court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. All rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders set out in this
Agreement are cumulative and no right or remedy contained herein is intended to be exclusive but each will be in addition to every other right or remedy contained herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute or pursuant to any
other agreement between the Debtor and the Agent or the Lenders that may be in effect from time to time. No delay or omission by the Agent or the Lenders in exercising any right or remedy herein or with respect to the Obligations shall operate as a
waiver thereof. 
  

 - 11 - 







 21. Non-Substitution. The Security Interests granted or created under this Agreement are in addition to and not in
substitution for any other security now or hereafter held by the Agent or the Lenders. 
  
 22. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia. 
  
 23. Notice. Notice may be given to either party in accordance with the Guarantee. 
  
 24. Deficiency. If the amounts realized from the disposition of Collateral are not sufficient to pay the Obligations in full, the
Debtor will immediately pay to the Agent, as agent for the Lenders, the amount of such deficiency. 
  
 25. Appointment of Attorney. The Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent and any of its managers or acting managers or the Receiver, as the case may be, with full power of substitution for the Agent, at
its option, wherever and whenever during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement it may deem necessary or expedient, to be the true and lawful attorney of the Debtor for and in the name of the Debtor to sign, endorse or
execute under seal or otherwise any deeds, documents, transfers, cheques, instruments, demands, assignments, assurances or consents that the Debtor is obliged to sign, endorse or execute and generally to use the name of the Debtor and to do all
things as may be necessary or incidental to the exercise of all or any of the powers conferred on the Agent or the Receiver, as the case may be, pursuant to this Agreement and to file such financing statements and other documents and do such acts,
matters and things (including completing and adding Appendices hereto identifying Collateral or any permitted encumbrances affecting Collateral or identifying the locations at which the Debtor’s business is carried on and Collateral and records
relating thereto are situate all in accordance with the Credit Agreement) as the Agent may deem appropriate to perfect and continue the Security Interests, to protect and preserve Collateral and to realize upon the Security Interests. 
  
 26. Set-Off. Without limiting any other right of the Agent or the Lenders, whenever
the security constituted hereby has become enforceable the Agent may, in its sole discretion, set off against the Obligations any and all moneys then owed to the Debtor by the Agent or the Lenders in any capacity, whether or not due, and the Agent
shall be deemed to have exercised such right to set-off immediately at the time of making its decision to do so even though any charge therefor is made or entered on the Agent’s records subsequent thereto. 
  
 27. No Merger. This Agreement shall not operate so as to create any merger or
discharge of any of the Obligations, or any assignment, transfer, guarantee, lien, contract, promissory note, bill of exchange or security interest of any form held or which may hereafter be held by the Agent or the Lenders from the Debtor or from
any other person whomsoever. The taking of a judgment with respect to any of the Obligations will not operate as a merger of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement. 
  
 28. Assignment. Each Lender may, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, at any time assign all Security
Interests granted or created hereunder, or any interest in this Agreement and the Security Interests granted or created hereunder, to any person. The Debtor expressly agrees that the Assignee (as defined in the Credit Agreement) shall have all of
such Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement. 
  

 - 12 - 







 29. Satisfaction and Discharge. Any partial payment or satisfaction of the Obligations, or any ceasing by the
Debtor to be indebted to the Agent or the Lenders, shall be deemed not to be a redemption or discharge of this Agreement. The Debtor shall be entitled to a release and discharge of this Agreement upon full payment and satisfaction of all Obligations
and upon written request by the Debtor and payment to the Agent of all reasonable discharge fees, costs, charges, expenses and legal fees and disbursements (as between solicitor and own client) incurred by the Agent and the Lenders in connection
with the Obligations and such release and discharge. 
  
 30. Liability of
Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible or liable for any debts contracted by it, for damages to persons or property or for salaries or non-fulfilment of contracts during any period when the Agent shall manage Collateral upon entry as herein
provided, nor shall the Agent be liable to account as mortgagee in possession or for anything except actual receipts or be liable for any loss on realization or for any default or omission for which a mortgagee in possession may be liable. The Agent
shall not be bound to do, observe or perform or to see to the observance or performance by the Debtor of any obligations or covenants imposed upon the Debtor nor shall the Agent, in the case of securities, instruments or chattel paper, be obliged to
preserve rights against other persons, nor shall the Agent be obliged to keep any of the Collateral identifiable. The Debtor hereby waives any applicable provision of law permitted to be waived by it which imposes higher or greater obligations upon
the Agent than herein stated. 
  
 31. Enurement. This Agreement shall enure
to the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and their successors and permitted assigns, and shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Debtor. 
  
 32. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Debtor’s obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 33. Acknowledgement. The Debtor hereby acknowledges receiving a copy of this
Agreement. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Debtor has executed this
Agreement as of the date first written above.
