To the extent an   interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged   under Section 2.01 is certificated or becomes certificated, (i) each such certificate shall be delivered to the   Administrative Agent, pursuant to Section 2.02(a) and (ii) such Grantor shall fulfill all other requirements   under Section 2.02 applicable in respect thereof. Each Grantor hereby agrees that if any of the Pledged   Collateral are at any time not evidenced by certificates of ownership, then each applicable Grantor shall,   to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) if necessary or desirable to perfect a security interest in such   Pledged Collateral, cause such pledge to be recorded on the equityholder register or the books of the   issuer, execute any customary pledge forms or other documents necessary or appropriate to complete the   pledge and give the Administrative Agent the right to transfer such Pledged Collateral under the terms   hereof, and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon request by   the Administrative Agent, (A) cause the Organization Documents of each such issuer that is a Subsidiary   of any Grantor to be amended to provide that such Pledged Collateral shall be treated as "securities" for   purposes of the STA and (B) cause such Pledged Collateral to become certificated and delivered to the   Administrative Agent.   Section 2.05. Unlimited Liability Companies. Any Grantor that controls any interest   (for the purposes of this Section, "ULC Interests") in any unlimited liability company (for the purposes   of this Section, a "ULC") pledged hereunder shall remain registered as the sole registered and beneficial   owner of the ULC Interests and will remain as registered and beneficial owner until such time as the ULC   Interests are effectively transferred into the name of the Administrative Agent or any other person on the   books and records of the ULC. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall constitute the   Administrative Agent or any person other than the ULC a shareholder or member of such ULC until such   time as notice is given to the ULC and further steps are taken thereunder so as to register the   Administrative Agent or any other person as the holder of such ULC Interests. To the extent any   provision hereof would have the effect of constituting the Administrative Agent or any other person as a   shareholder or member of an unlimited liability company prior to such time, such provision shall be   severed therefrom and ineffective with respect to the ULC Interests without otherwise invalidating or   rendering unenforceable this Agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable such provision insofar   as it relates to Pledged Collateral which are not ULC Interests. Except upon the exercise of rights to sell   or otherwise dispose of ULC Interests following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of   Default hereunder, each Grantor shall not cause or permit, or enable any ULC in which it holds ULC   Interests to cause or permit, the Administrative Agent to: (a) be registered as shareholders or members of   such ULC; (b) have any notation entered in their favour in the share register of such ULC; (c) be held out   as shareholders or members of such ULC; (d) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or   other distributions from such ULC by reason of the Administrative Agent holding a security interest in   such ULC; or (e) to act as a shareholder or member of such ULC, or exercise any rights of a shareholder   or member including the right to attend a meeting of, or to vote the shares of, such ULC.   Section 2.06. Registration in Nominee Name: Denominations. If an Event of Default   shall occur and be continuing, (a) the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have   -11-   CANADIAN PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT   LEGAL 23770880.12

(ii) The Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to   be executed and delivered to each Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other   instruments as each Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to   exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to   subparagraph (i) above.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the   Administrative Agent shall have notified each Grantor of the suspension of the rights of the Grantors   under paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.07, then all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal   -12-   CANADIAN PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT   LEGAL 23770880.12

All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any   Grantor contrary to the provisions of this Section 2.07 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the   Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Grantor and shall be   promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days) delivered to the Administrative Agent upon demand   in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the   Administrative Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the   Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the   Administrative Agent in an account to be established by the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such   money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02 hereof.   After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, the Administrative Agent shall promptly repay to   each Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor   would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.07 that   remain in such account.   (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the   Administrative Agent shall have provided each Grantor with 10 days notice of the suspension of the   rights of the Grantors under paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.07, then all rights of any Grantor to exercise   the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this   Section 2.07, and the obligations of the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.07,   shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall   have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers;   provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have the   right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the   Grantors to exercise such rights at the discretion of the Administrative Agent. After all Events of Default   have been cured or waived, each Grantor shall have the exclusive right to exercise the voting and/or   consensual rights and powers that such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the   terms of paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.07.   (d) Any notice given by the Administrative Agent to each Grantor suspending the   rights of the Grantors under paragraph (a) of this Section 2.07(i) shall be given in writing, (ii) may be   given with respect to one or more of the Grantors at the same or different times and (iii) may suspend the   rights of the Grantors under paragraph (a)(i) or paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.07 in part without   suspending all such rights (as specified by the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion)   and without waiving or otherwise affecting the Administrative Agent's rights to give additional notices   from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(e) With respect to any Deposit Accounts that are Blocked Accounts pursuant to   Section 6.15(b) of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor that is an account party for a Blocked Account   shall comply with the provisions of Section 6.15 of the Credit Agreement.

EXECUTION COPY   Section 3.02. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor jointly and severally   represents and warrants, as to itself and the other Grantors, to the Administrative Agent and the Secured   Parties that:   (a) Subject to Liens permitted by Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement, each   Grantor has good and valid rights in and title to the General Collateral with respect to which it has   purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full power and authority to grant to the   Administrative Agent the Security Interest in such General Collateral pursuant hereto and to   execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,   without the consent or approval of any other Person other than any consent or approval that has   been obtained.   (b) The Financing Statements, Filing Change Statements or other appropriate filings,   recordings or registrations prepared by the Administrative Agent based upon the information   provided to the Administrative Agent in the Perfection Certificate for filing in each governmental,   municipal or other office specified in Schedule 5 to the Perfection Certificate (or specified by   notice from the a Grantor to the Administrative Agent after the Closing Date in the case of filings,   recordings or registrations required by Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement), are all the filings,   recordings and registrations that are necessary to establish a legal, valid and perfected security   interest in favour of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of   all General Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or   registration in Ontario or any other relevant Canadian jurisdiction and no further or subsequent   filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary in any such   jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of continuation   statements.   (c) The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the   General Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Obligations; and (ii) subject to   the filings described in Section 3.02(b), a perfected security interest in all General Collateral in   which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a Financing   Statement or analogous document in Ontario, or any other relevant Canadian jurisdiction,   pursuant to the PPSA or its equivalent in the relevant jurisdiction. The Security Interest is and   shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the General Collateral, other than (1) any nonconsensual   Lien that is expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement and has priority   as a matter of law and (2) Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit   Agreement.   (d) The General Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien,   except for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

(c) At its option, the Administrative Agent may discharge past due taxes,   assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on   the General Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 7.01of the Credit Agreement, and may pay   for the maintenance and preservation of the General Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as   required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement and within a reasonable period of time after the   Administrative Agent has requested that it do so, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to   reimburse the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after demand for any payment made or any   reasonable expense incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization.   Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or   imposing any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any   covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens,   security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Loan   Documents.

Such assignment   need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security interest   against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other Person granting the security interest.   (e) Each Grantor shall, upon request of the Administrative Agent, at its own   expense, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend (i) title to the General   Collateral against all Persons and (ii) the Security Interest of the Administrative Agent in the General   Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the   Credit Agreement. Each Grantor (rather than the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party) shall   remain liable (as between itself and any relevant counterparty) to observe and perform all the conditions   and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating   to the General Collateral, all in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and each Grantor jointly   and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties   from and against any and all liability for such performance.

If the Grantors shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments   constituting General Collateral (excluding cheques), and evidencing an amount in excess of (i)   $10,000,000 individually or (ii) when aggregated with all other such Instruments for which this   clause has not been satisfied, $50,000,000 in the aggregate, such Grantor shall promptly endorse,   assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties,   accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the   Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request;   ARTICLE IV   Remedies   Section 4.01. Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the   continuance of an Event of Default, it is agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to   exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party with respect to the Obligations under PPSA or other   applicable law and also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor agrees that it will at its expense   and upon request of the Administrative Agent promptly, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed   by the Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place and time to be   designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) occupy any   premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral   or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and   remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation;   provided that the Administrative Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with notice thereof prior to   such occupancy; (iii); exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in   connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral; provided that the Administrative   Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with notice thereof prior to such exercise; and (iv) subject to   the mandatory requirements of applicable law and the notice requirements described below, sell or   otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral securing the Obligations at a public or private sale or   at any broker's board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the   Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such   sale of securities (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to   Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for   investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such   sale the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or   purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any sale of Collateral shall hold the   property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby   CANADIAN PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT   LEGAL 23770880.12     





 







EXECUTION COPY   waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor   now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter   enacted.   The Administrative Agent shall give the applicable Grantors 15 days' written notice   (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice) of the Administrative Agent's intention to make any sale   of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in   the case of a sale at a broker's board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at   which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered   for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within   ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Administrative Agent may fix and state in the   notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in   one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Administrative Agent may (in its sole and absolute   discretion) determine. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral   if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have   been given. The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private   sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for   sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so   adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the   Collateral so sold may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the sale price is paid by the   purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability in case any   such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any   such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted   by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free   (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of   any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the   Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any   claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price,   and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such   property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement   to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Administrative   Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to   the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the   Administrative Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been   remedied and the Obligations paid in full.   As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the   Administrative Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to   sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having   competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court appointed interim receiver, receiver and   manager or receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.01 shall be deemed to be   commercially reasonable under the PPSA or equivalent legislation in any other Canadian jurisdiction. The   Administrative Agent may appoint, remove or reappoint by instrument in writing, any Person or Persons,   whether an officer or officers or an employee or employees of any Grantor or not, to be an interim   receiver, receiver or receivers (hereafter called a "Receiver", which term when used herein shall include a   receiver and manager) of the Collateral (including any interest, income or profits therefrom). Any such   Receiver shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed the agent of such Grantor and not of   the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall not be in any way responsible for any   misconduct, negligence or non-feasance on the part of any such Receiver or its servants, agents or   -19-   CANADIAN PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT   LEGAL 23770880.12
