    (b) For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest under this Indenture is calculated using a rate based on a year of 365 days, the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate based on a year of 365 days, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by 365; (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Indenture, and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Indenture are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

    
        11

    

    

    (c) In calculating interest under this Indenture or under a Debenture for any period, unless otherwise specifically stated, the first day of such period shall be included and the last day of such period shall be excluded.

    (d) If any provision in any Indenture Document would oblige the Corporation to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to the Trustee or any Holder in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by the Trustee or that Holder of "interest" at a "criminal rate" (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by Applicable Law or so result in a receipt by the Trustee or that Holder of "interest" at a "criminal rate", such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows:

    (i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest to be paid to the Trustee or the affected Holder, as the case may be; and

    (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the Trustee or the affected Holder, as the case may be, which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

    1.14 Successors and Assigns

    All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Corporation shall bind its successors and assigns, whether expressed or not.

    1.15 Severability Clause

    ARTICLE 2
 THE DEBENTURES

    2.1 Limit of Issue and Designation of Debentures

    The Debentures authorized to be issued hereunder are limited to 19,155 Debentures in aggregate principal amount of $19,155,000, which shall be designated as "10.0% Unsecured Convertible Debentures due January 30, 2021".

    2.2 Form and Terms of Debentures

    (a) The Debentures shall be dated as of the Issue Date. The Debentures shall bear interest from and including the Issue Date at the rate of 10.0% per annum (after as well as before maturity, default and judgment, with interest on overdue interest at the said rate until the earlier of the dates set out in Section 2.3(a)(ii) to Section 2.3(a)(iv) below), payable in lawful money of Canada in equal semi-annual instalments in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, and the Debentures shall mature on the Maturity Date. The first Interest Payment Date on June 30, 2019 will include interest accrued from the Issue Date to, but excluding, June 30, 2019.

    (b) Subject to the Debentures being converted in accordance with the terms of Article 4 or purchased prior to the Maturity Date in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the outstanding principal of the Debentures will be payable to the Holder on the Maturity Date in lawful money of Canada against surrender thereof by said Holder at the Corporate Trust Office or at such place or places as may be designated by the Corporation for that purpose.

    (c) The Debentures shall be issued as fully registered Debentures in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000, or as Uncertificated Debentures.

    The Debentures and the certificate of the Trustee endorsed thereon shall be substantially in the form set forth in Schedule "A".

    
        13

    

    

    2.3 Interest

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

    (i) the following Interest Payment Date;

    (ii) if purchased in accordance with Section 3.1, the date of payment;

    (iii) if converted in accordance with Article 4, the Conversion Date; and

    (iv) the Maturity Date;

    as the case may be (the "Interest Period"). The interest payable per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures in respect of an Interest Period other than an Interest Period that ends on an Interest Payment Date shall be calculated by multiplying $1,000 by the interest rate of 10.0% per annum, computed on the basis of a 365-day year. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure under such act, whenever interest to be paid is to be calculated on the basis of any period of time less than a calendar year (a "deemed year") such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest for the deemed year by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the rate is to be ascertained and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year.

    (b) Subject to the Debentures being converted in accordance with the terms of Article 4 or purchased prior to the Maturity Date in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Corporation shall pay to the Debentureholders on the Maturity Date all outstanding principal thereon and all accrued and unpaid interest thereto, up to but excluding the Maturity Date.

    (c) All payments of interest in cash on the Uncertificated Debentures shall be made by electronic funds transfer or certified cheque made payable to the Depository or its nominee on the day interest is payable for subsequent payment to Beneficial Holders of the applicable Uncertificated Debentures, unless the Corporation and the Depository otherwise agree.

    2.4 Prescription

    The right of the Debentureholders to exercise their rights under this Indenture shall become void unless the Debentures are presented for payment within a period of two years from the Maturity Date. The Corporation shall have satisfied its obligations under the Debentures upon irrevocable remittance to the Trustee for the account of the Debentureholders, upon repurchase or at the Maturity Date, of any and all consideration due hereunder in cash and such remittance shall for all purposes be deemed a payment to the Debentureholders, and to that extent such Debentures shall thereafter not be considered as Outstanding and the Debentureholders shall have no right, except to receive payment out of the moneys so paid and deposited upon surrender of its Debentures.

    2.5 Issue of Debentures

    Debentures in such aggregate principal amounts as the Board of Directors shall determine in accordance with the terms hereof and in lawful money of Canada shall be executed by the Corporation from time to time and, forthwith after such execution, shall be delivered to the Trustee and shall be authenticated by the Trustee and delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the terms of Section 2.7.

    2.6 Execution of Certificated Debentures

    All Certificated Debentures shall be signed (either manually or by electronic signature) by any one Responsible Officer of the Corporation holding office at the time of signing. An electronic signature upon a Certificated Debenture shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the signature of the Person whose signature it purports to be. Notwithstanding that any Person whose signature, either manual or electronic, appears on a Certificated Debenture as a director or officer may no longer hold such office at the date of the Certificated Debenture or at the date of the certification and delivery thereof, such Certificated Debenture shall be valid and binding upon the Corporation and the registered holders thereof entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. In addition, any Uncertificated Debenture shall, subject to Section 2.7, be valid and binding upon the Corporation and the registered Holder thereof will be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

    2.7 Authentication

    (a) Only such Debentures as shall have been Authenticated shall be enforceable against the Corporation and entitled to the benefits of this Indenture at any time or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

    (b) Authentication by Trustee of any Certificated Debenture executed by the Corporation shall be conclusive evidence that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

    (c) No Debenture (which for greater certainty shall include any Debenture issued as an Uncertificated Debenture) shall be issued or, if issued, shall be valid for any purpose, enforceable against the Corporation or entitle the registered Holder to the benefit hereof or thereof until it has been Authenticated. Such Authentication shall be conclusive evidence that such Debenture is a valid and binding obligation of the Corporation and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. The Authentication by the Trustee of any such Debenture hereunder shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Trustee as to the validity of this Indenture or of such Debenture or its issuance (except the due Authentication thereof) or as to the performance by the Corporation of its obligations under this Indenture and the Trustee shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of the Debentures or any of them or the proceeds thereof.

    2.8 Uncertificated Debentures

    (a) Subject to the provisions hereof, at the Corporation's option, Debentures may be issued and registered in the name of CDS or its nominee as an Uncertificated Debenture and the deposit of which may be confirmed electronically by the Trustee to a particular Participant through CDS.

    (b) If the Corporation issues Uncertificated Debentures, Beneficial Holders of such Debentures shall not receive Debenture certificates in definitive form and shall not be considered owners or holders thereof under this Indenture or any supplemental indenture. Beneficial interests in Debentures registered and deposited with CDS will be represented only through the NCI. Transfers of Debentures registered and deposited with CDS between Participants shall occur in accordance with the rules and procedures of CDS. Neither the Corporation nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspects of the records relating to or payments made by CDS or its nominee, on account of the beneficial interests in Debentures registered and deposited with CDS. Nothing herein shall prevent the Beneficial Holders of Uncertificated Debentures from voting such Debentures using duly executed proxies or voting instruction forms.

    
        15

    

    

    (c) All references herein to actions by, notices given or payments made to, Debentureholders shall, where Debentures are held through CDS, refer to actions taken by, or notices given or payments made to, CDS upon instruction from the Participants in accordance with its rules and procedures in the case of actions by CDS. For the purposes of any provision hereof requiring or permitting actions with the consent of or the direction of Debentureholders evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate Debentures outstanding, such direction or consent may be given by Beneficial Holders acting through CDS and the Participants owning Debentures evidencing the requisite percentage of the Debentures. The rights of a Beneficial Holder whose Debentures are held established by law and agreements between such holders and CDS and the Participants upon instructions from the Participants. Each of the Trustee and the Corporation may deal with CDS for all purposes (including the making of payments) as the authorized representative of the respective Debentures or Debenture holders and such dealing with CDS shall constitute satisfaction or performance, as applicable, of their respective obligations hereunder.

    (d) For so long as Debentures are held through CDS, if any notice or other communication is required to be given to Debentureholders, the Trustee will give such notices and communications to CDS.

    (e) If CDS resigns or is removed from its responsibility as Depository and the Trustee is unable or does not wish to locate a qualified successor, CDS shall provide the Trustee with instructions for registration of Debentures in the names and in the amounts specified by CDS, and the Corporation shall issue and the Trustee shall certify and deliver the aggregate number of Debentures then outstanding in the form of Certificated Debentures representing such Debentures.

    (f) The rights of Beneficial Holders who hold securities entitlements in respect of the Debentures through the NCI shall be limited to those established by Applicable Law and agreements between the Depository and the Participants and between such Participants and the Beneficial Holders who hold securities entitlements in respect of the Debentures through the NCI, and such rights must be exercised through a Participant in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository.

    (g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Corporation nor the Trustee nor any agent thereof shall have any responsibility or liability for:

    (i) the electronic records maintained by the Depository relating to any ownership interests or other interests in the Debentures or the depository system maintained by the Depository, or payments made on account of any ownership interest or any other interest of any Person in any Debenture represented by an electronic position in the NCI (other than the Depository or its nominee);

    (ii) for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of the Depository or any Participant relating to any such interest; or

    (iii) any advice or representation made or given by the Depository or those contained herein that relate to the rules and regulations of the Depository or any action to be taken by the Depository on its own direction or at the direction of any Participant.

    
        16

    

    

    (h) The Corporation may terminate the application of this Section 2.8 in its sole discretion in which case all Debentures shall be evidenced by Certificated Debenture registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository.

    2.9 Persons Entitled to Payment

    (a) Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Debenture, the Corporation, the Trustee and any other Person, as the case may be, may treat the Person in whose name any Debenture is registered in the applicable register as the absolute and sole owner of such Debenture for all purposes including receiving payment of the principal of, and any premium, if any, interest or other amount on such Debenture, receiving any notice to be given to the Holder of such Debenture, and taking any Act of Holders with respect to such Debenture, whether or not any payment with respect to such Debenture shall be overdue, and none of the Corporation, the Trustee or any other Person, as the case may be, shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

    (b) Delivery of a Debenture to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Holder thereof shall, upon payment of such Debenture, be a valid discharge to the Corporation of all obligations evidenced by such Debenture. None of the Corporation, the Trustee or any other Person shall be bound to inquire into the title of any such Holder.

    (c) In the case of the death of one or more joint registered Holders of a Debenture, the principal of, and premium, if any, interest and any other amounts on such Debenture may be paid to the survivor or survivors of such registered Holders whose receipt of such payment, accompanied by the delivery of such Debenture, shall constitute a valid discharge to the Corporation and the Trustee.

    2.10 Payment of Principal and Interest on Debentures

    (a) Except as may otherwise be provided herein, payments of amounts due upon maturity of the Debentures will be made in the following manner: the Corporation will establish and maintain with the Trustee a maturity account for the Debentures (the "Maturity Account"). On or before 9:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) not less than one Business Day immediately prior to the Maturity Date the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee a certified cheque or wire transfer for deposit in the applicable Maturity Account in an amount sufficient to pay the cash amount payable in respect of such Debentures (including the principal amount together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon less any tax required by law to be deducted). The Trustee, on behalf of the Corporation, will pay to each Holder entitled to receive payment the principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Debenture, upon surrender of the Debenture at any branch of the Trustee designated for such purpose from time to time by the Corporation and the Trustee. The delivery of such funds to the Trustee for deposit to the applicable Maturity Account will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Corporation for the Debentures to which the delivery of funds relates to the extent of the amount delivered (plus the amount of any tax deducted as aforesaid) and such Debentures will thereafter to that extent not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture and such Holder will have no other right in regard thereto other than to receive out of the money so delivered or made available the amount to which it is entitled. Unless any Debenture is converted or purchased in accordance with the terms of this Indenture prior to the Maturity Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Debentures upon the Maturity Date provided the Trustee has received, by the Maturity Date, from the Corporation all the funds due and payable on the Debentures.

    (b) As interest becomes due on each Debenture (except, on conversion or if purchased in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, when interest shall be paid by the Corporation upon surrender of such Debenture in accordance with the terms of this Indenture), the Corporation, either directly or through the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, shall send or forward by prepaid ordinary mail, electronic transfer of funds or such other means as may be agreed to by the Trustee, payment of such interest to the order of the registered Holder of such Debenture appearing on the registers maintained by the Trustee at the close of business on the record date prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date and addressed to the Holder at the Holder's last address appearing on the register, unless such Holder otherwise directs. If payment is made by cheque, such cheque shall be forwarded at least three days prior to each date on which interest becomes due, and if payment is made by other means (such as electronic transfer of funds), the Trustee must receive confirmation of receipt of funds prior to being able to forward funds or cheques to holders and such payment shall be made in a manner whereby the Holder receives credit for such payment on the date such interest on such Debenture becomes due. The mailing of such cheque or the making of such payment by other means shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby, plus the amount of any tax withheld as aforesaid, satisfy and discharge all liability for interest on such Debenture, unless in the case of payment by cheque, such cheque is not paid at par on presentation. In the event of non-receipt of any cheque for or other payment of interest by the person to whom it is so sent as aforesaid, the Corporation will issue to such person a replacement cheque or other payment for a like amount upon being furnished with such evidence of non-receipt as it shall reasonably require and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation is prevented by circumstances beyond its control (including, without limitation, any interruption in mail service) from making payment of any interest due on each Debenture in the manner provided above, the Corporation may make payment of such interest or make such interest available for payment in any other manner acceptable to the Trustee with the same effect as though payment had been made in the manner provided above.

    (c) The Trustee is authorized by the Corporation to make payments of interest and principal to Holders, by electronic funds transfer, upon the request of such Holder and the reasonable and documented Trustee's fees in respect thereof will be for the account of the Holder.

    (d) If a Debenture or a portion thereof is called or presented for conversion or purchase and the payment date is subsequent to a Payment Record Date but prior to the related Interest Payment Date, interest accrued on such Debenture will be paid upon presentation and surrender of such Debenture to the Corporate Trust Office up to but excluding the payment date.

    (e) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this section, each Debenture delivered upon the transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Debenture shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Debenture.

    2.11 Rank

    The Debentures certified and issued under this Indenture rank pari passu with one another.

    2.12 Register and Transfer

    (a) The Corporation shall cause to be kept by and at the principal office of the Trustee in Calgary, Alberta and by the Trustee or such other registrar as the Corporation, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as the Corporation may designate with the approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the names and addresses of the holders of Debentures and particulars of the Debentures held by them respectively and of all transfers of Debentures. Such registration shall be noted on any Certificated Debentures by the Trustee or other registrar unless a new Certificated Debenture shall be issued upon such transfer.

    
        18

    

    

    (b) No transfer of any Debenture shall be valid unless entered on the register referred to in Section 2.12(a), and upon surrender of any Certificated Debentures together with a duly executed form of transfer acceptable to the Trustee, or in the case of Uncertificated Debentures in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the Depositary and, if applicable, upon compliance with such other reasonable requirements as the Trustee or other registrar may prescribe. In the case of Certificated Debentures, the Trustee shall rely on the Form of Assignment in the form included in Schedule "A" signed by the transferor without further enquiry. Transfers within the systems of CDS are not the responsibility of the Trustee and will not be noted on the register maintained by the Trustee, provided however that the full position of Debentures held by or through CDS shall at all times appear on the register.

    (c) None of the Corporation, the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee will be liable or responsible to any Person for any aspect of the records related to or payments made on account of beneficial interests in any Uncertificated Debenture or for maintaining, reviewing, or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests.

    2.13 Certificated Debentures; Transfers and Exchanges

    (v) Uncertificated Debentures may be transferred or exchanged for Certificated Debentures at any time after a Depository has determined, in its sole discretion, that such transfer or exchange is required to effect conversion rights in accordance with the terms hereof and has communicated such determination to the Trustee in writing;

    (viii) if requested by a Beneficial Holder and provided that such transfer or exchange for Certificated Debentures is permitted by Applicable Law and conducted in accordance with any procedures required under the NCI,

    following which Certificated Debentures shall be issued to the beneficial owners of such Debentures or their nominees, as directed by the Holder. The Corporation shall provide an Officer's Certificate giving notice to the Trustee of the occurrence of any event outlined in this Section 2.14.

    2.16 No Notice of Trusts

    Neither the Corporation nor the Trustee nor any registrar shall be bound to take notice of or see to the execution of any trust (other than that created by this Indenture) whether express, implied or constructive, in respect of any Debenture, and may transfer the same on the direction of the Person registered as the Holder thereof, whether named as trustee or otherwise, as though that Person were the beneficial owner thereof.

Notice of such transfer shall be given to the holders of such Debentures.

    2.20 Charges for Registration, Transfer and Exchange

    For each Debenture exchanged, registered, transferred or discharged from registration, the Trustee or other registrar, except as otherwise herein provided, may make a reasonable charge for its services and in addition may charge a reasonable sum for each new Debenture issued (such amounts to be agreed upon from time to time by the Trustee and the Corporation), and payment of such charges and reimbursement of the Trustee or other registrar for any stamp taxes or governmental or other charges required to be paid shall be made by the party requesting such exchange, registration, transfer or discharge from registration as a condition precedent thereto.

If the Corporation or any other payor of any amount under or in respect of the Debentures (including any amount paid in respect or proceeds of disposition of the Debenture to a Debentureholder) is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Debentures in respect of any such payment by the Corporation, the Corporation will make such withholding or deduction and will remit the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority as and when required by Applicable Law and the Corporation will pay to the Trustee or, in respect of any amount paid by any payor other than the Corporation of any amount under or in respect of the Debentures (including any amount paid in respect of proceeds of disposition of the Debentures to a Debentureholder) will pay to each Debentureholder such additional amounts (the "Additional Amounts") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to any payment to a Holder (an "Excluded Holder") in respect of a Beneficial Holder who is liable for such Taxes in respect of such Debentures: (i) by reason of such Holder or Beneficial Holder being a Person with whom the Corporation is not dealing at arm's length for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") at the time of making such payment, (ii) by reason of the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or Beneficial Holder and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax, other than, in either case, solely by reason of the Holder's activity in connection with purchasing the Debentures, the mere holding, deemed holding, use or ownership of the Debentures, or receiving payments under or enforcing any rights in respect of such Debentures, (iii) by reason of such Holder or Beneficial Holder being a "specified shareholder" of the Corporation (within the meaning of Section 18(5) of the Tax Act) at the time of payment or deemed payment, or by reason of such Holder or Beneficial Holder not dealing at arm's length for the purposes of the Tax Act with a "specified shareholder" of the Corporation at the time of payment or deemed payment; (iv) by reason of the failure of the Holder or Beneficial Holder of a Debenture to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements if such compliance is required or imposed by a statute, treaty or regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Governmental Authority as a precondition to exemption from or reduction in all or part of such Taxes, deduction or withholding; or (v) for any estate, inheritance, gift, sales or any similar Taxes.

    
        22

    

    

    (b) Within 90 days after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to Applicable Law, the Trustee will furnish to the Corporation copies of tax receipts, if any, evidencing such payment by the Trustee.

    (c) At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Debentures is due and payable, if the Corporation to its knowledge will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the date payment is due.

    (d) Whenever in this Indenture or in any Debenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), a purchase price pursuant to an offer to purchase, interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Debenture, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

    (e) The Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder (other than an Excluded Holder) and upon written request reimburse each of the Holders for the amount of: (i) any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by the Holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Debentures (including any amount paid by the Corporation in respect of proceeds of disposition of the Debenture to a Holder), and (ii) any Taxes levied or imposed and paid by the Holder with respect to reimbursement under (i) above, but excluding any Taxes on such Holder's net income or capital.

    (f) If the Corporation pays any indemnity or Additional Amounts under this Section 2.22 to a Holder and the Holder or Beneficial Holder at any time thereafter receives a refund in respect of Taxes or a credit with respect to payment of Taxes, then such Holder or Beneficial Holder shall promptly pay to the Corporation the amount of such refund or credit net of all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Holder or Beneficial Holder to obtain such refund or credit.

    
        23

    

    

    2.23 Cancellation of Debentures

    (a) All Debentures surrendered for payment of the final amount required to be paid thereon, or that have been surrendered to the Trustee for registration of exchange or transfer or surrendered in connection with a conversion or purchase by the Corporation in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee on receipt. The Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Corporation of the particulars of any Debentures cancelled by it upon its request for this information, and the Corporation shall pay the Trustee's reasonable fees in connection therewith.

    (b) The Corporation may, in its discretion at any time, deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Debentures which the Corporation has purchased as provided for in this Indenture, and all such Debentures so delivered shall be cancelled by the Trustee.

    (c) All Debentures which have been cancelled by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with its standard practices, and the Trustee shall furnish to the Corporation a destruction certificate setting forth the numbers and denominations of the Debentures so destroyed.

    2.24 Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Debentures

    (a) If any Debenture has been mutilated or defaced or has or has been alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then, on application by the applicable Holder to the Trustee, the Corporation may, in its discretion, execute, and upon such execution the Trustee shall certify and deliver, a new Debenture of the same date and amount as the defaced, mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Debenture in exchange for and in place of the defaced or mutilated Debenture, and in lieu of and in substitution for the lost, stolen or destroyed Debenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Debenture shall be delivered as a replacement for any Debenture which has been mutilated or defaced otherwise than upon surrender of the mutilated or defaced Debenture, and no Debenture shall be delivered as a replacement for any Debenture which has been lost, stolen or destroyed unless the applicant for the replacement Debenture has furnished to the Corporation and the Trustee evidence, satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation and the Trustee, of its ownership of, and of such loss, theft or destruction of, such Debenture and has provided such a surety bond and indemnity to the Corporation and the Trustee in amount, form and substance satisfactory to each of them. Any instructions by the Corporation to the Trustee under this section shall include such indemnity for the protection of the Trustee as the Trustee may reasonably require.

    (b) If any mutilated, defaced, lost, stolen or destroyed Debenture has become or is about to become due and payable, the Corporation, in its discretion, may, instead of executing a replacement Debenture, pay to the Holder thereof the full amount outstanding on such mutilated, defaced, lost, stolen or destroyed Debenture.

    (c) Upon the issuance of a replacement Debenture, the Corporation may require the applicant for such replacement Debenture to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to such issuance and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Corporation) connected with such issuance.

    (d) Each replacement Debenture shall bear a unique legend, if applicable, and be in a form otherwise identical to the Debenture it replaces and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture to the same extent and in the same manner as the Debenture it replaces.

    
        24

    

    

    (e) Unless the Corporation instructs otherwise, the Trustee shall, in accordance with its practice, destroy each mutilated or defaced Debenture surrendered to and cancelled by it and in respect of which a replacement Debenture has been delivered or moneys have been paid and shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, furnish to the Corporation, upon its receipt of a written request, a certificate as to such destruction.

    2.25 Access to Lists of Holders

    (a) The register of Debentureholders maintained by the Trustee will, at all reasonable times during the regular business hours of the Trustee, be open for inspection by the Corporation.

    (b) If any Beneficial Holder or group of Beneficial Holders, or such one or more Holders as may be permitted by Applicable Law (in each case, the "Applicants") apply to the Trustee (with a copy to the Corporation), then the Trustee, after having been funded and indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by such Applicants for its related costs and expenses, shall afford or shall cause the Corporation to afford the Applicants, access during normal business hours to the most recent list of Debentureholders within 10 Business Days after the receipt of such application by the Trustee. Such list shall be as of a date no more than 10 days (or such other date as may be mandated by Applicable Law) prior to the date of receipt of the Applicants' request.

    2.26 Canadian Legend on the Debentures and Common Shares

    (a) The certificates or other instruments representing the Debentures, and the stock certificates representing any Common Shares issued upon conversion of such Debentures, (if issued prior to the expiration of the applicable hold periods), if any, will bear the following legend in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation:

    "UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE [INSERT THE DATE THAT IS 4 MONTHS AND A DAY AFTER THE DISTRIBUTION DATE]."

    provided that if, at any time, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, such legend is no longer necessary or advisable under Applicable Securities Laws, or the Holder of any such legended certificate, at the Holder's expense, provides the Corporation with evidence satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation (which may include an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Corporation) to the effect that such legend is not required, such legended certificate may thereafter be surrendered to the Corporation in exchange for a certificate which does not bear such legend.

    (b) If issued as a Certificated Debenture issued in Canada and held by the Depository and each Debenture certificate issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof shall bear the following legend or such variations thereof as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time:

    "UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS CLEARING AND DEPOSITORY SERVICES INC. ("CDS") TO C21 INVESTMENTS INC. (THE "ISSUER") OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IN RESPECT THEREOF IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CDS & CO., OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CDS & CO OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF, CDS & CO., HAS A PROPERTY INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HEREIN AND IT IS A VIOLATION OF ITS RIGHTS FOR ANOTHER PERSON TO HOLD, TRANSFER OR DEAL WITH THIS CERTIFICATE."

    
        25

    (i) repurchase for cash all or such portion of the Debentures of such Holders equal to $1,000 principal amount (or an integral multiple thereof) which are Outstanding immediately prior to such Change of Control, at a price equal to 105% of the principal amount of the Debentures then Outstanding plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the "Change of Control Repurchase Price") on the Change of Control Repurchase Date (the "Repayment Offer"); or

    (ii) if as a result of the Change of Control there is or will be a Successor Entity, subject to Applicable Law, exchange all or such portion of the Debentures of such Holders equal to $1,000 principal amount (or an integral multiple thereof) which are Outstanding immediately prior to such Change of Control into debentures of the Successor Entity (the "Exchanged Debentures"), with each $1,000 principal amount (or an integral multiple thereof) being exchanged for unsecured convertible debentures of the Successor Entity with a principal amount of $1,000 with interest, payment and maturity provisions that are economically equivalent to the Debentures (the "Exchange Offer" and together with the Repayment Offer, the "Change of Control Offer"),

    provided that if 90% or more of the principal amount of all of the Debentures then Outstanding on the date of the Change of Control Notice are tendered for redemption pursuant to the Repayment Offer, the Exchange Offer shall be deemed to be withdrawn and the Corporation shall have the right, at its option, at any time within 30 days of the Change of Control Repurchase Date of such Change of Control Offer, to elect to redeem all, but not less than all, of the remaining Debentures that are then Outstanding, at the Change of Control Repurchase Price of such Repayment Offer.

    (e) The delivery of a Debenture for which a Change of Control Repurchase Notice has been timely delivered to the Trustee and not validly withdrawn prior to, on or after the Change of Control Repurchase Date (together with all necessary endorsements) at the office of the Trustee shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of the Change of Control Repurchase Price or Exchanged Debentures therefor.

    (f) The Corporation shall only be obliged to purchase or exchange, pursuant to this Section 3.1, a portion of a Debenture if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 (provisions of this Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Debenture also apply to the purchase of such portion of such Debenture).

    (g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Trustee the Change of Control Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 3.1 shall have the right to withdraw such Change of Control Repurchase Notice in whole or in a portion thereof that is a principal amount of $1,000 or in an integral multiple thereof, at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Change of Control Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Trustee in accordance with the procedures set out in the Change of Control Notice or, if not set out therein, then in accordance with this Section 3.1(g).

    (h) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Corporation of the receipt by it of any Change of Control Repurchase Notice or written withdrawal thereof.

        27

    

    

    (j) Upon receipt by the Trustee of a properly completed Change of Control Repurchase Notice from a Holder, the Holder of the Debenture in respect of which such Change of Control Repurchase Notice was given shall (unless such Change of Control Repurchase Notice is withdrawn as specified in Section 3.1(k)), thereafter be entitled to receive the Change of Control Repurchase Price or Exchanged Debentures, as the case may be, with respect to such Debenture, subject to there being no Event of Default then occurring including a continuation thereof (other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Repurchase Price). The Change of Control Repurchase Price shall be paid or the Exchanged Debentures issued to such Holder promptly following the later of: (i) the Change of Control Repurchase Date and (ii) the time of delivery of such Debenture to the Trustee by the Holder thereof in the manner required by this Section 3.1.

    (k) A Change of Control Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice (which may be delivered by mail, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Uncertificated Debentures, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository) of withdrawal delivered by the Holder to the Trustee at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Change of Control Repurchase Date, specifying: (i) the principal amount of the Debenture or portion thereof (which must be a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof), with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, (ii) if Certificated Debentures have been issued, the certificate number of the Debentures being withdrawn in whole or in withdrawable part (or if the Debentures are not Uncertificated Debentures, such written notice must comply with the applicable procedures of the Depository) and (iii) the portion of the principal amount of the Debentures that will remain subject to the Change of Control Repurchase Notice, which portion must be a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

    (l) On or before 12:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the Business Day following the applicable Change of Control Repurchase Date, the Corporation shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on or after such Change of Control Repurchase Date), sufficient to pay the aggregate Change of Control Repurchase Price of all the Debentures or portions thereof that are to be purchased as of such Change of Control Repurchase Date.

    (m) If the Trustee holds, in accordance with the terms hereof, money sufficient to pay the Change of Control Repurchase Price of any Debenture for which a Change of Control Repurchase Notice has been tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture then, on the Business Day following the applicable Change of Control Repurchase Date, such Debenture will cease to be outstanding, whether or not the Debenture is delivered to the Trustee, and interest shall cease to accrue, and the rights of the Holder in respect of the Debenture shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Change of Control Repurchase Price as aforesaid). The Corporation shall publicly announce the principal amount of Debentures repurchased on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Repurchase Date.

    (n) The Trustee will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Debentures with respect to which a Change of Control Repurchase Notice has been withdrawn in compliance with this Indenture.

    (o) If a Change of Control Repurchase Date falls after a Payment Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, then interest on the Debentures payable on such Interest Payment Date will be payable to the Holders in whose names the Debentures are registered at the close of business on such Payment Record Date.

    
        28

    

    

    (p) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.1 to the contrary, the Corporation shall be entitled to withdraw the Change of Control Notice and, upon written order of the Corporation, the notice of Change of Control provided by the Trustee in accordance with Section 3.1(a) in the event that the anticipated Change of Control is terminated or does not occur. In such event, no Debentures shall be purchased hereunder and the Corporation shall be entitled to the return of any funds deposited as contemplated in Section 3.1(l) and any Debentures delivered by the Holders thereof to the Trustee shall be returned to such Holders.

    3.2 Purchase of Debentures

    Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Corporation may at any time and from time to time purchase all or any of the Debentures in the market (which shall include purchase from or through an investment dealer or a firm holding membership on a Recognized Stock Exchange) or by tender or by private contract, at any price, subject to compliance with Applicable Securities Laws and the provisions of this Indenture. Debentures so purchased by the Corporation shall be submitted to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.23. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Corporation will not have the right to purchase any Debentures except as permitted by this Indenture.

    If, upon an invitation for tenders, more Debentures than the Corporation is prepared to accept are tendered at the same lowest price, the Debentures to be purchased by the Corporation will be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis and in consultation with the Corporation and in accordance with Applicable Securities Laws, from the Debentures tendered by each tendering Debentureholder who tendered at such lowest price. For this purpose the Trustee may make, and may from time to time amend, regulations with respect to the manner in which Debentures may be so selected, and regulations so made shall be valid and binding upon all Debentureholders, notwithstanding the fact that as a result thereof one or more such Debentures becomes subject to purchase in part only. The Holder of any Debenture of which a part only is purchased upon surrender of such Debenture for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such Holder, a replacement Debenture for and evidencing the same obligation as the unpurchased part so surrendered, and the Trustee shall certify and deliver such replacement Debenture upon receipt of the Debenture so surrendered.

    3.3 Debentures Purchased in Part

    Any Debenture that is to be purchased only in part pursuant to this Article 3 shall be surrendered at the office of the Trustee, and promptly after the date of such purchase, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Debenture, without service charge, a new Debenture or Debentures, of such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Debenture so surrendered that is not purchased.

    3.4 Compliance with Applicable Securities Law upon Purchase of Debentures

    In connection with any offer to purchase Debentures under this Article 3, the Corporation shall comply with all Applicable Securities Laws in connection with such offer to purchase or purchase of Debentures, all so as to permit the rights of the Holders and obligations of the Corporation under this Article 3 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified therein. To the extent that compliance with any Applicable Securities Laws would result in a conflict with any of the terms thereof, this Indenture is hereby modified to the extent required for the Corporation to comply with such Applicable Securities Laws.

    
        29

    

    

    3.5 Repayment to the Corporation

    To the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Article 3 exceeds the aggregate purchase amount or portions thereof that the Corporation is obligated to purchase, then the Trustee shall return any such excess cash to the Corporation as soon as practicable following the completion of the applicable requirements hereunder.

    3.6 Cancellation of Purchased Debentures

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

    ARTICLE 4
CONVERSION OF DEBENTURES

    4.1 Right to Convert

    (a) Upon and subject to the provisions and conditions of this Article 4 and other provisions hereof, the Holder of each Debenture shall have the right at such Holder's option at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of: (i) the sixth Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date of the Debentures (the "Time of Expiry" in respect of the Debentures), and (ii) the date fixed for redemption pursuant to Section 3.1, to convert any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the principal amount of a Debenture into Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect on the Date of Conversion.

    (b) Except as provided below, no adjustment in the number of Common Shares to be issued upon conversion will be made for dividends or distributions on Common Shares issuable upon conversion, the record date for the payment of which precedes the date upon which the Holder becomes a Holder of Common Shares in accordance with Article 4. No fractional Common Shares will be issued, any fraction of a Common Share that would otherwise be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The Conversion Price applicable to, and the Common Shares, securities or other property receivable on the conversion of, the Debentures is subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.5.

    (c) Holders converting Debentures will receive, in addition to the applicable number of Common Shares, accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Debentures surrendered for conversion up to but excluding the Date of Conversion from, and including, the most recent Interest Payment Date in accordance with Section 4.4(e).

    (d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, if a Debenture is surrendered for conversion on an Interest Payment Date or during the five preceding Business Days, the Person or persons entitled to receive Common Shares in respect of the Debenture so surrendered for conversion shall not become the Holder or holders of record of such Common Shares until the Business Day following such Interest Payment Date.

    
        30

    

    

    4.2 Notice of Expiry of Conversion Privilege

    Notice of the expiry of the conversion privileges of the Debentures shall be given by or on behalf of the Corporation, not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for the Time of Expiry, in the manner provided in Section 11.2.

    4.3 Revival of Right to Convert

    If the payment of the purchase price of any Debenture which has been tendered in acceptance of an offer by the Corporation to purchase Debentures for cancellation is not made on the date on which such purchase is required to be made then, provided the Time of Expiry has not passed, the right to convert such Debentures shall revive and continue as if such Debenture had not been tendered in acceptance of the Corporation's offer.

    4.4 Manner of Exercise of Right to Convert

    (a) The Holder of a Debenture desiring to convert such Debenture in whole or in part into Common Shares shall surrender such Debenture to the Trustee at its principal office in the City of Calgary, Alberta, together with the conversion notice set out in Schedule "A" or any other written notice in a form satisfactory to the Trustee, in either case duly executed by the Holder or his executors or administrators or other legal representatives or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and executed in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee, exercising his right to convert such Debenture in accordance with the provisions of this Article; provided that with respect to Uncertificated Debentures, the obligation to surrender a Debenture to the Trustee shall be satisfied if the Trustee is provided with all documentation which it may request. Thereupon such Debentureholder or, subject to payment of all applicable stamp or security transfer taxes or other governmental charges and compliance with all reasonable requirements of the Trustee, his nominee(s) or assignee(s) shall be entitled to be entered in the books of the Corporation as at the Date of Conversion (or such later date as is specified in Section 4.1 and Section 4.4(b)) as the Holder of the number of Common Shares into which such Debenture is convertible in accordance with the provisions of this Article and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the Corporation shall electronically deposit the Common Shares as directed by the Debentureholder or deliver to such Debentureholder or, subject as aforesaid, his nominee(s) or assignee(s), a certificate or certificates for such Common Shares and make or cause to be made any payment of interest to which such Holder is entitled in accordance with Section 4.4(e).

    (b) For the purposes of Section 4.1, a Debenture shall be deemed to be surrendered for conversion on the date (the "Date of Conversion") on which it is so surrendered when the register of the Trustee is open and in accordance with the provisions of this Article or, in the case of Uncertificated Debentures which the Trustee received notice of and all necessary documentation in respect of the exercise of the conversion rights and, in the case of a Debenture so surrendered by post or other means of transmission, on the date on which it is received by the Trustee at its principal office specified in Section 4.4(a); provided that if a Debenture is surrendered for conversion on a day on which the register of Common Shares is closed, the Person or Persons entitled to receive Common Shares shall become the Holder or holders of record of such Common Shares as at the date on which such registers are next reopened.

    (c) Any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of a Debenture in a denomination in excess of $1,000 may be converted as provided in this Article and all references in this Indenture to conversion of Debentures shall be deemed to include conversion of such parts.

    
        31

    

    

    (d) The Holder of any Debenture of which only a part is converted shall, upon the exercise of his, her or its right of conversion surrender such Debenture to the Trustee in accordance with Section 4.4(a), and the Trustee shall cancel the same and shall without charge forthwith Authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Debenture or Debentures in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted part of the principal amount of the Debenture so surrendered. It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that, unless the Trustee is otherwise in a position to perform electronic conversions, in every instance where Uncertificated Debentures held through the NCI are to be converted in whole or in part, such Debentures being converted shall not be represented by Certificated Debentures, and it shall be sufficient for the Trustee to convert such Debentures upon receiving either the attached exercise form executed by the Depository or an NCI Letter of Instruction in a form agreed upon by the Trustee and the Depository, or such other form that they may require from time to time.

    (e) The Holder of a Debenture surrendered for conversion in accordance with this Section 4.4 shall be entitled (subject to any applicable restriction on the right to receive interest on conversion of Debentures of any series) to receive accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof from the date of the last Interest Payment Date up to but excluding the Date of Conversion (less applicable withholding taxes, if any), and the Common Shares issued upon such conversion shall rank only in respect of distributions or dividends declared in favour of shareholders of record on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such Holder shall become the Holder of record of such Common Shares pursuant to Section 4.4(b), from which applicable date they will for all purposes be and be deemed to be issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares.

    4.5 Mandatory Conversion

    (a) At any time following the date that is 4 months and one day following the Issue Date and in the event that the daily VWAP of the Common Shares is greater than $0.90 for any 10 consecutive trading days, the Corporation may force the conversion of the principal amount of the then Outstanding Debentures at the Conversion Price on not less than 30 days' notice (the "Mandatory Conversion Notice") to the Holders and the Trustee in accordance with Article 11 hereof. Concurrently with the issuance of the Mandatory Conversion Notice, the Corporation shall issue a press release with respect to thereof.

    (b) The Mandatory Conversion Notice shall contain the date (the "Mandatory Conversion Date") on which the Outstanding Debentures shall be deemed to be surrendered for conversion; provided that the Mandatory Conversion Date shall be a date on which the register of the Trustee is open.

    (c) On the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Trustee shall cancel the Outstanding Debentures held by the Debentureholders. Thereupon such Debentureholder or, subject to payment of all applicable stamp or security transfer taxes or other governmental charges and compliance with all reasonable requirements of the Trustee, his or her nominee(s) or assignee(s) shall be entitled to be entered in the books of the Corporation as at the Mandatory Conversion Date, as the Holder of the number of Common Shares into which such Debenture is convertible in accordance with the provisions of this Article and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the Corporation shall electronically deposit the Common Shares in the name of the Debentureholder or deliver to such Debentureholder a certificate or certificates for such Common Shares pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and make or cause to be made any payment of interest to which such Holder is entitled in accordance with Section 4.5(d) and Section 4.4(e).

    
        32

    

    

    (d) The Holder of a Debenture converted in accordance with Section 4.5 shall be entitled to receive accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof from the date of the last Interest Payment Date up to but excluding the Mandatory Conversion Date (less applicable withholding taxes, if any), and the Common Shares issued upon such conversion shall rank only in respect of distributions or dividends declared in favour of shareholders of record on and after the Mandatory Conversion Date, from which date they will for all purposes be and be deemed to be issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares.

    4.6 Adjustment of Conversion Price

    Subject to the requirements of a Recognized Stock Exchange, the Conversion Price in effect at any date shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth below.

    (a) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall: (i) subdivide, redivide or change the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) issue Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution (other than cash dividends or distributions for which an adjustment would be made under Section 4.6(b)) (a "Common Share Reorganization"), the Conversion Price in effect on the date of such subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation or on the record date for such issue of Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution, as the case may be, shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Common Share Reorganization by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction: (1) the denominator of which shall be the number of Common Shares              outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such record date, assuming in any case where such securities are not then convertible or exchangeable but subsequently become so, that they were convertible or exchangeable on the record date on the basis upon which they first become convertible or exchangeable); and (2) the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 4.6 shall occur. Any such issue of Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been made on the record date for the dividend or distribution for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under subsections (c) and (d) of this Section 4.6.

    (b) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall fix a record date for the payment of a cash dividend or distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares in respect of any applicable period, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date and of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date minus the amount in cash per Common Share distributed to holders of Common Shares. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such cash dividend or distribution is not paid, the Conversion Price shall be re-adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed.

    
        33

    

    

    (c) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of options, rights or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price of a Common Share on such record date, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered) by such Current Market Price per Common Share, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such options, rights or warrants are not so issued or any such options, rights or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be re-adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, rights or warrants were included in such fraction, as the case may be.

    (d) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 4.6(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, binding share exchange, merger of the Corporation with or into any other Person or other entity or acquisition of the Corporation or other combination pursuant to which the Common Shares are converted into or acquired for cash, securities or other property; or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other Person (other than a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) or other entity or a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, any Holder of a Debenture who has not exercised its right of conversion prior to the date of such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, such amount of cash or the number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the Person or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement, acquisition, combination or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made or which holders of Common Shares receive pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, as the case may be, that such Holder of a Debenture would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, if, on the record date or the date of this Indenture, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered Holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the conversion right. If determined appropriate by the Board of Directors, to give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this Section 4.6(d), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing Person or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, enter into an indenture which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Indenture with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of Debentures to the end that the provisions set forth in this Indenture shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any cash, shares or other securities or property to which a Holder of Debentures is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation and the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.6(d) shall be a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.4. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing Person or other entity and the Trustee shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section 4.6(d) and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, amalgamations, consolidations, mergers, share exchanges, acquisitions, combinations, sales or conveyances. Nothing in this Section 4.6(d) shall affect or reduce the requirement for any Person to make a Change of Control Purchase Offer.

    
        34

    

    

    (e) If the Corporation shall make a distribution to all holders of shares in the capital of the Corporation, other than Common Shares, or evidences of indebtedness or other assets of the Corporation, including securities (but excluding (x) any issuance of rights or warrants for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.5(c), and (y) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.5(b) (the "Distributed Securities"), then in each such case (unless the Corporation distributes such Distributed Securities to the holders of Debentures on such dividend or distribution date (as if each Holder had converted such Debenture into Common Shares immediately preceding the record date with respect to such distribution)) the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding the ex-distribution date fixed for the dividend or distribution shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding such ex-distribution date by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP for the Common Shares for the five consecutive trading days immediately prior to the ex-distribution date and of which the numerator shall be the VWAP for the Common Shares for the first five consecutive trading days that occur immediately following ex-distribution date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective five Business Days immediately following the ex-distribution date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the securities distributed by the Corporation to all holders of its Common Shares consist of capital stock of, or similar equity interests in, a Subsidiary or other business of the Corporation (the "Spinoff Securities"), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted, unless the Corporation makes an equivalent distribution to the holders of Debentures, so that the same shall be equal to the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on the record date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the sum of: (A) the VWAP for the Common Shares for the 20 consecutive trading day period (the "Spinoff Valuation Period") commencing on and including the fifth trading day after the date on which ex-dividend trading commences for such distribution on a Recognized Stock Exchange or market on which the Common Shares are then listed or quoted and (B) the product of: (i) the weighted average trading price (calculated in substantially the same way as the Current Market Price is calculated for the Common Shares) over the Spinoff Valuation Period of the Spinoff Securities or, if no such prices are available, the Fair Market Value of the Spinoff Securities (which determination shall be conclusive and shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate delivered to the Trustee) multiplied by (ii) the number of Spinoff Securities distributed in respect of one Common Share and the numerator of which shall be the VWAP for the Common Shares for the Spinoff Valuation Period, such adjustment to become effective immediately preceding the opening of business on the 25th trading day after the date on which ex-dividend trading commences; provided, however, that the Corporation may in lieu of the foregoing adjustment elect to make adequate provision so that each Holder of Debentures shall have the right to receive upon conversion thereof the amount of such Spinoff Securities that such Holder of Debentures would have received if such Debentures had been converted on the record date with respect to such distribution.

    
        35

    

    

    (f) If any issuer bid made by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of Common Shares shall expire, then, if the issuer bid shall require the payment to shareholders of consideration per Common Share having a Fair Market Value (determined as provided below) that exceeds the Current Market Price per Common Share on the last date (the "Expiration Date") tenders could have been made pursuant to such issuer bid (as it may be amended) (the last time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the "Expiration Time"), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding the close of business on the Expiration Date by a fraction of which: (i) the denominator shall be the sum of (A) the Fair Market Value of the aggregate consideration (which determination shall be conclusive evidence of such Fair Market Value and which shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate delivered to the Trustee) payable to shareholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the issuer bid) of all Common Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the Common Shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "Purchased Common Shares") and (B) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding (less any Purchased Common Shares and excluding any Common Shares held in the treasury of the Corporation) at the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price per Common Share on the Expiration Date and (ii) the numerator of which shall be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding (including Purchased Common Shares but excluding any Common Shares held in the treasury of the Corporation) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Current Market Price per Common Share on the Expiration Date, such increase to become effective immediately preceding the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Date. In the event that the Corporation is obligated to purchase Common Shares pursuant to any such issuer bid, but the Corporation is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such purchases or any or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would have been in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually purchased, if any. If the application of this clause (f) of Section 4.6 to any issuer bid would result in a decrease in the Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such issuer bid under this clause (f).

    (g) In any case in which this Section 4.6 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder of any Debenture converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder's right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such Holder would, but for the provisions of this Section 4.6(e), have become the Holder of record of such additional Common Shares pursuant to Section 4.4(b).

    
        36

    

    

    (h) The adjustments provided for in this Section 4.6 are cumulative and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price then in effect; provided however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 4.6(h) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

    (i) For the purpose of calculating the number of Common Shares outstanding, Common Shares owned by or for the benefit of the Corporation shall not be counted.

    (j) In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided in this Section 4.6, such question shall be conclusively determined by a firm of nationally recognized chartered accountants appointed by the Corporation and acceptable to the Trustee (who may be the auditors of the Corporation); such accountants shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation and such determination shall be binding upon the Corporation, the Trustee, and the Debentureholders.

    (k) In case the Corporation shall take any action affecting the Common Shares other than action described in this Section 4.6, which in the opinion of the Board of Directors, adjusted in such manner and at such time, by action of the Board of Directors, subject to the requirements of a Recognized Stock Exchange on which the Common Shares are listed, as the Board of Directors, in their sole discretion acting reasonably and in good faith may determine to be equitable in the circumstances. Failure of the directors to make such an adjustment shall be conclusive evidence that they have determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.

    (l) Subject to the requirements of a Recognized Stock Exchange on which the Common Shares are listed, no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made in respect of any event described in Section 4.6(a), Section 4.6(b), Section 4.6(c), Section 4.6(e) or Section 4.6(f) other than the events described in Section 4.6(a)(i) or Section 4.6(a)(ii) if the holders of the Debentures are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms mutatis mutandis as if they had converted their Debentures prior to the date of this Indenture or record date, as the case may be, of such event.

    (m) Except as stated above in this Section 4.6, no adjustment will be made in the Conversion Price for any Debentures as a result of the issuance of Common Shares at less than the Current Market Price for such Common Shares on the date of issuance or the then applicable Conversion Price.

    4.7 No Requirement to Issue Fractional Common Shares

    The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractional Common Shares upon the conversion of Debentures pursuant to this Article. If more than one Debenture shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of whole Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of such Debentures to be converted. If any fractional interest in a Common Share would, except for the provisions of this Section, be deliverable upon the conversion of any principal amount of Debentures, any fraction of a Common Share that would otherwise be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. For clarity, the Corporation will not be required to make any cash payment to any Debentureholder in respect of the conversion of Debentures in respect of any fractional Common Shares unless such amount is greater than $20.

    
        37

    

    

    4.8 Corporation to Reserve Common Shares

    The Corporation covenants with the Trustee that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares (if the number thereof is or becomes limited), solely for the purpose of issue upon conversion of Debentures as in this Article provided, and conditionally allot to Debentureholders who may exercise their conversion rights hereunder, such number of Common Shares as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all Outstanding Debentures. The Corporation covenants with the Trustee that all Common Shares which shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued as fully-paid and non- assessable.

    4.9 Cancellation of Converted Debentures

    Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4 as to Debentures converted in part, all Debentures converted in whole or in part under the provisions of this Article shall be forthwith delivered to and cancelled by the Trustee and no Debenture shall be issued in substitution for those converted.

    4.10 Certificate as to Adjustment

    The Corporation, pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall from time to time immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 4.6, deliver an Officer's Certificate to the Trustee specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of 25% of the principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding notify the Trustee that they do not agree with such determination within 14 days of such determination being communicated to all the holders, such certificate and the amount of the adjustment specified therein shall be verified by an opinion of a firm of nationally recognized chartered accountants appointed by the Corporation and acceptable to the Trustee (who may be the auditors of the Corporation) and shall be conclusive and binding to all parties in interest. When so approved, the Corporation shall, except in respect of any subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares, forthwith give notice to the Debentureholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2 specifying the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the results thereof, including the resulting Conversion Price.

    4.11 Notice of Special Matters

    The Corporation covenants with the Trustee that so long as any Debenture remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Trustee, and to the Debentureholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2, of its intention to fix a record date for any event referred to in Section 4.6(a), Section 4.6(b), Section 4.6(c) or Section 4.6(e) (other than the subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of its Common Shares) which may give rise to an adjustment in the Conversion Price, and, in each case, such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date and the date of this Indenture for such event; provided that the Corporation shall only be required to specify in such notice such particulars of such event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given. Such notice shall be given not less than 7 days in each case prior to such applicable record date.

    In addition, the Corporation covenants with the Trustee that so long as any Debenture remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Trustee, and to the Debentureholders in the manner provided in Section 11.2, at least 30 days prior to the: (i) date of any transaction referred to in Section 4.6(d) stating the consideration into which the Debentures will be convertible after the date of this Indenture of such transaction; and (ii) Expiration Date of any transaction referred to in Section 4.6(f) stating the consideration paid per Common Share in such transaction.

    
        38

    

    

    4.12 Protection of Trustee

    Subject to Section 8.1, the Trustee:

    (a) shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Debentureholder to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment in the Conversion Price, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same;

    (b) shall have no duty to determine when an adjustment under this Article 4 should be made, how it should be made or what such adjustment should be, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the fact or the correctness of any such adjustment, and shall be protected in acting and relying upon, an Officers' Certificate with respect thereto;

    (c) shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Common Shares or of any shares or other securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Debenture; and

    (d) shall not be responsible for any failure of the Corporation to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver Common Shares or share certificates upon the surrender of any Debenture for the purpose of conversion, or to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Article.

    Each certificate representing Common Shares issued upon conversion of Debentures (or in lieu of cash as interest thereon), shall have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such legend or legends substantially in the following form, unless not required by Applicable Securities Laws in order to permit the Holder to freely trade such Common Shares:

    "UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE [INSERT THE DATE THAT IS 4 MONTHS AND A DAY AFTER THE DISTRIBUTION DATE]."

    provided that if, at any time, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, such legend is no longer necessary or advisable under Applicable Securities Laws, or the Holder of any such legended certificate, at the Holder's expense, provides the Corporation with evidence satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation (which may include an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Corporation) to the effect that such legend is not required, such legended certificate may thereafter be surrendered to the Corporation in exchange for a certificate which does not bear such legend.

The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references this Indenture. Delivery of reports to the Trustees shall not constitute actual knowledge of, or notice to, the Trustees of the information contained therein.

    6.3 Waiver of Default

    (a) The holders of, collectively, more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debentures, may on behalf of the holders of all Debentures, by written Notice to the Trustee approved by an instrument in writing signed in one or more counterparts by such holders or their duly appointed proxies or agents, instruct the Trustee to waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default:

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

    (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Section 12.2 cannot be modified or amended without approval by Extraordinary Resolution.

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

    
        43

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

    (c) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

    (b) The Trustee may maintain a Proceeding even if it does not possess any Debentures or does not produce any of them in the Proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.

    (b) The Trustee may refuse, however, to follow any direction pursuant to section 6.8(a) that Counsel to the Trustee advises conflicts with Applicable Law or this Indenture.

    6.8 Limitation on Suits

    (a) No Holder of any Debenture will have any right to pursue any remedy (including any action, suit or proceeding authorized or permitted by this Indenture or pursuant to Applicable Law, except actions for payment of overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest with respect to this Indenture or the Debentures unless: (i) the Holder gives to the Trustee notice of a continuing Event of Default; (ii) the holders of, collectively, at least 25% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Debentures make a request in writing to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; (iii) such Holder or Holders offer or provide to the Trustee sufficient funding and indemnity in form satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; (iv) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 30 days after receipt of such request and indemnity; and (v) during such 30-day period the holders of, collectively, a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Debentures do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

    (b) Holders may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

    6.9 Collection Suit by Trustee

    If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee against the Corporation for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest remaining unpaid on the Debentures and any other amounts owing under the terms of this Indenture.

    In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defences made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.8, or a suit by any Holder, group of Holders, of, collectively, more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debentures.

    6.12 Delay or Omission Not Waiver

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

Any such notice or requisition shall in no way limit any discretion given to the Trustee in this Indenture to determine whether or not to take action with respect to any Default or Event of default or with respect to any such requisition.

    (b) The obligation of the Trustee to do any of the actions referred to in (1), including to commence or to continue any Proceeding or any right of the Trustee or the Holders, shall be conditional upon the Holders furnishing, when required by notice in writing by the Trustee, sufficient funds to commence or continue such action and an indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee to protect and hold harmless the Trustee against the costs, charges, expenses and liabilities which may result from such action and any loss and damage the Trustee may suffer by reason of such action.

Upon any such resignation, the Trustee shall be discharged from all further duties and liabilities under this Indenture.

If the Trustee does not comply with this section, any Holder or the Corporation may apply to the Supreme Court of British Columbia in Vancouver for an order that the Trustee be replaced as trustee under this Indenture.

The successor Trustee so appointed by the Corporation or by such court shall be subject to removal by the Holders by way of an Act of Holders. Any successor Trustee appointed under any provision of this section shall be a corporation authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in Canada or in any province thereof. On any appointment of the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named in this Indenture as Trustee.

Should any deed, conveyance or other document in writing from the Corporation be required by any successor Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts, then any and all such deeds, conveyances and other documents in writing shall, on the request of the successor Trustee, be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Corporation.

    (e) Any corporation into which the Trustee is amalgamated or with which it is consolidated or to which all or substantially all of its corporate trust business is sold or is otherwise transferred or any corporation resulting from any consolidation or amalgamation to which the Trustee is a party shall be a successor Trustee under this Indenture without the execution of any document or any further act; provided that such successor Trustee is a corporation qualified to carry on the business of a trust company in Canada or any province thereof and shall not have a material conflict of interest in its role as a fiduciary under this Indenture.

    (c) there shall not immediately after the date of this Indenture of the Subject Transaction be a Default or Event of Default; and

    (d) if the Corporation will not be the continuing Person, the Corporation shall have, at or prior to the date of this Indenture of the Subject Transaction delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating that the Subject Transaction complies with this Section 10.1 and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with the Subject Transaction, such supplemental indenture complies with this Article, and that all conditions precedent herein provided for and relating to the Subject Transaction have been complied with.

    Upon the assumption of the Corporation's obligations by the Successor Entity in such circumstances, the Corporation shall be discharged from all obligations under the Debentures and this Indenture.

    10.2 Rights and Duties of Successor Entity

    (a) In case of any Subject Transaction and upon any such assumption by the Successor Entity, such Successor Entity shall agree to be bound by the terms of this Indenture as principal obligor in place of the Corporation with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Corporation and shall take all such steps as are necessary to make effective the Exchange Offer pursuant to Section 3.1. Such Successor Entity to the Corporation thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Corporation, any or all Debentures which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Corporation and delivered to the Trustee. All Debentures so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as Debentures theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Debentures have been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

    (b) In the case of any Subject Transaction, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in Debentures thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

    (a) evidencing a successor to the Corporation and the assumption by that successor of the Corporation's obligations under this Indenture and the Debentures;

    (d) making any other changes to this Indenture that do not adversely affect the interest of the Holders in any material respect, based on an opinion of counsel (and in the case of a change affecting the rights of the Trustee, with its consent).

    (i) power to assent to any compromise or arrangement with any creditor or creditors or any class or classes of creditors, whether secured or otherwise, and with holders of any Voting Securities or other securities of the Corporation;

The resolution making such appointment may provide for payment of the expenses and disbursements of and compensation to such committee. Such committee shall consist of such number of persons as shall be prescribed in the resolution appointing it and the members need not be themselves Debentureholders.

The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such Supplemental Indenture that adversely affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

    
        62

    C21 INVESTMENTS INC.

    (A corporation incorporated under the laws of British Columbia)

    10.0% UNSECURED CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE

    C21 INVESTMENTS INC. (the "Corporation"), for value received, hereby acknowledges itself indebted and promises to pay to the order of the registered Holder on January 30, 2019 (the "Maturity Date"), or on such earlier date as the principal amount hereof may become due in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture hereinafter mentioned, the principal sum of

    [insert amount],

    in lawful money of Canada, on presentation and surrender of this Debenture (as defined below) at the principal office of the Trustee (defined below) in the manner specified in the Indenture (as defined below), in the City of Vancouver, Province of British Columbia, and to pay interest on the principal amount then Outstanding (as defined in the Indenture) at the rate of 10.0% per annum from the Issue Date (as defined in the Indenture) or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or made available for payment on the Debentures then outstanding, whichever is later, at the option of the Corporation, in like money, in equal semi-annual instalments in arrears on the last day of June and December in each year (each such date an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing on June 30, 2019 with overdue interest, if any, at the same rate after as well as before maturity and after as well as before default in payment of principal or interest. The first interest payment will include interest accrued from January 30, 2019 to but excluding June 30, 2019.

    

    As interest on this Debenture becomes due, the Corporation (subject to early repurchase or redemption pursuant to the terms of the Indenture (as defined below)) shall forward or cause to be forwarded by ordinary post to the registered address of the registered Holder of the Debenture for the time being, or in the case of joint Holders to the registered address of one of such joint Holders, a cheque or electronic funds transfer for such interest, payable to the order of such Holder or Holders. The forwarding of such cheque or electronic funds transfer shall satisfy and discharge the liability for interest on this Debenture to the extent of the sum represented thereby, unless such cheques, if any, be not paid on presentation.

    For the purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), whenever interest is computed under this Debenture on the basis of a year (the "deemed year") which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest by the actual number of days in such calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year.

    This Debenture is one of the 10.0% Unsecured Convertible Debentures due January 30, 2019 (the "Debentures") created and issued under an Indenture (the "Indenture") dated as of January 30, 2019 made between, inter alia, the Corporation and Alliance Trust Company, as trustee (the "Trustee"). Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a description of the rights of the holders of the Debentures, the Corporation and the Trustee and of the terms and conditions upon which the Debentures are issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Indenture were herein set forth, to all of which provisions the Holder of this Debenture, by acceptance hereof, agrees. To the extent that the terms and conditions stated in this Debenture conflict with the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the latter shall prevail. All capitalized terms used herein have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated.

    The Debentures are issuable as fully registered Debentures in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The Debentures of any authorized denomination may be exchanged, as provided in the Indenture, for Debentures in equal aggregate principal amount, provided that Debentures tendered for exchange must be equal to $1,000 principal amount or any integral thereof.

    Any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the principal of this Debenture, provided that the principal amount of this Debenture is in a denomination in excess of $1,000, is convertible, at the option of the Holder hereof, upon surrender of this Debenture at the principal office of the Trustee in Vancouver, British Columbia, at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date into Common Shares (without adjustment for interest accrued hereon or for dividends or distributions on Common Shares issuable upon conversion) at the Conversion Price, all subject to the terms and conditions and in the manner set forth in the Indenture, including adjustment to the Conversion Price in accordance with the Indenture. No Debenture may be converted during the five Business Days preceding and including June 30 and December 31 in each year, commencing June 30, 2019 as the registers of the Trustee will be closed during such periods. The Indenture makes provision for the adjustment of the Conversion Price in the events therein specified. No fractional Common Shares will be issued on any conversion and any fraction of a Common Share that would otherwise be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Holders converting their Debentures will receive accrued and unpaid interest thereon. If a Debenture is surrendered for conversion on an Interest Payment Date or during the five preceding Business Days, the Person or Persons entitled to receive Common Shares in respect of the Debenture so surrendered for conversion shall not become the Holder or holders of record of such Common Shares until the Business Day following such Interest Payment Date.

    This Debenture and all other Debentures certified and issued under the Indenture rank pari passu with one another, in accordance to their tenor without discrimination, preference or priority. The Indenture contains restrictions on the Corporation's ability to pay dividends.

    2

    

    Upon the giving of notice by the Trustee of the occurrence of an Event of Default in accordance with the

    Indenture, the Debentures will become immediately due and payable.

    Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, prior to the Maturity Date, each Holder of the Debentures has the right to require the Corporation to make an offer to repurchase the Debentures then Outstanding by notice to the Holders thereof and the Trustee. The Change of Control Repurchase Price payable to the Holders will be, depending on the date upon which the Change of Control occurs, determined in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any.

    At any time following the date that is 4 months and one day following the Issue Date and in the event that

    the daily VWAP of the Common Shares is greater than $0.90 for any 10 consecutive trading days, the Corporation may force the conversion of the principal amount of the then Outstanding Debentures at the Conversion Price on not less than 30 days' notice.

    Any payments made by or on behalf of the Corporation with respect to the Debentures will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, unless the Corporation or any other payor is required to withhold or deduct Taxes by Applicable Law or by the interpretation or administration thereof by the relevant Governmental Authority. If the Corporation is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Debentures, the Trustee will make such withholding or deduction and will remit the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority as and when required by Applicable Law, and the Corporation will pay to the Trustee such Additional Amounts as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted.

    The Indenture contains provisions for the holding of meetings of Debentureholders and rendering certain resolutions passed at such meetings by, or by instruments in writing signed by, the holders of, collectively, not less than a majority, or in the case of matters requiring approval by Extraordinary Resolution, not less than 662⁄3%, in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debentures, binding upon all Debentureholders, subject to the provisions of the Indenture.

    This Debenture may only be transferred upon compliance with the conditions precedent in the Indenture on the register kept at the principal office of the Trustee and at such other place or places, if any, and/or by such other registrar or registrars, if any, as the Corporation with the approval of the Trustee may designate, and may be exchanged at any such place, by the Holder hereof or his executors or administrators or other legal representatives or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and execution satisfactory to the Trustee, and upon compliance with such reasonable requirements as the Trustee and/or registrar may prescribe, and such transfer shall be duly noted thereon by the Trustee or other registrar.

    Neither the Debentures nor the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Debentures have been or will be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any state securities laws of the United States.

    This Debenture shall not become obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been certified by the Trustee for the time being under the Indenture.

    This Debenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable thereto.

    3

    

    The Holder of this Debenture, by receiving and holding same, hereby accepts and agrees to be bound by the terms, and to be entitled to the benefits of this Debenture and of the Indenture and confirms the appointment of the Trustee and of the Indenture, the whole in accordance with and subject to the respective provisions thereof.

    The Corporation will furnish to any Holder, upon written request and without charge, a copy of the Indenture.
