 **CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

*This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q regarding our financial position, estimated quantities and net present values of reserves, business strategy, plans and objectives of our management for future operations, covenant compliance, capital spending plans and benefits of the changes in our capital program or expenditures, our liquidity and financial condition and those statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate", "project", "target", "goal", "plan", "budget", "objective", "should", "outlook" or similar expressions or variations on these expressions are forward-looking statements. We can give no assurances that the assumptions upon which the forward-looking statements are based will prove to be correct or that, even if correct, intervening circumstances will not occur to cause actual results to be different than expected. Because forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, our ability to successfully integrate the assets and operations of i3 Energy Plc ("i3Energy") and realize the anticipated benefits and operating synergies expected from the 2024 acquisition of i3 Energy; certain of our operations are located in South America and unexpected problems can arise due to guerilla activity, strikes, local blockades or protests; technical difficulties and operational difficulties may arise which impact the production, transport or sale of our products; other disruptions to local operations; global health events; global and regional changes in the demand, supply, prices, differentials or other market conditions affecting oil and natural gas, including inflation and changes resulting from actual or anticipated tariffs and trade policies, global health crises, geopolitical events, including the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, or from the imposition or lifting of crude oil production quotas or other actions that might be imposed by OPEC and other producing countries and the resulting company or third-party actions in response to such changes; changes in commodity prices, including volatility or a prolonged decline in these prices relative to historical or future expected levels; the risk that current global economic and credit conditions may impact oil prices and oil consumption more than we currently predict, which could cause further modification of our strategy and capital spending program; prices and markets for oil and natural gas are unpredictable and volatile; the effect of hedges; the accuracy of productive capacity of any particular field; geographic, political and weather conditions can impact the production, transport or sale of our products; our ability to execute our business plan, which may include acquisitions and realize expected benefits from current or future initiatives; the risk that unexpected delays and difficulties in developing currently owned properties may occur; the ability to replace reserves and production and develop and manage reserves on an economically viable basis; the accuracy of testing and production results and seismic data, pricing and cost estimates (including with respect to commodity pricing and exchange rates); the risk profile of planned exploration activities; the effects of drilling down-dip; the effects of waterflood and multi-stage fracture stimulation operations; the extent and effect of delivery disruptions, equipment performance and costs; actions by third parties; the timely receipt of regulatory or other required approvals for our operating activities; the failure of exploratory drilling to result in commercial wells; unexpected delays due to the limited availability of drilling equipment and personnel; volatility or declines in the trading price of our common stock or bonds; the risk that we do not receive the anticipated benefits of government programs, including government tax refunds; our ability to access debt or equity capital markets from time to time to raise additional capital, increase liquidity, fund acquisitions or refinance debt; our ability to comply with financial covenants in our indentures and make borrowings under our credit agreement; and those factors set out in Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K"). This information included herein is given as of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, except as otherwise required by the securities laws, we disclaim any obligation or undertaking to publicly release any updates or revisions to or to withdraw, any forward-looking statement contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any forward-looking statement is based.*

**Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)**

**(Expressed in U.S. Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)**

**1. Description of Business**

Gran Tierra Energy Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company" or "Gran Tierra"), is a publicly traded company focused on oil and natural gas exploration and production with assets currently in Colombia, Ecuador and Canada.

**2. Significant Accounting Policies**

These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The information furnished herein reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim periods.

The note disclosure requirements of annual audited consolidated financial statements provide additional disclosures required for interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, which are included in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K and are the same policies followed in these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has evaluated all subsequent events to the date these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

***Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements***

In November 2024 and January 2025, FASB issued ASU 2024-03 and ASU 2025-01, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures". The amendments in ASU 2024-03 require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses recognized as part of oil-and natural gas-producing activities included in each relevant expense caption on the face of statement of operations. In addition, this ASU requires the presentation of specific expense captions of comprehensive income on the face of the statements of operations. ASU 2025-01 clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently assessing the impact of that update will have on its financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Amendments to the Measurement of Credit Losses on Certain Financial Assets". This ASU provides a practical expedient for estimating expected credit losses on certain short-term receivables and contract assets arising from revenue transactions within the scope of ASC 606. Under the practical expedient, all entities may elect to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date would not change for the remaining life of the asset when developing reasonable and supportable forecasts. The ASU will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2025, early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual reporting periods. The Company is currently assessing the impact of that update will have on its financial statements.

***Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements***

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". ASU 2023-09 enhances the income tax disclosures to enable investors to better understand an entity's exposure to potential changes in jurisdictional tax legislation and associated risks and opportunities, income tax information that effects cash flow forecasts and potential opportunities to increase future cash flows. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and should be applied prospectively, with retrospective application permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025. The implementation of this update does not impact quarterly income tax disclosures and is not expected to have material impact on annual income tax disclosures.

**3. Business Combination**

On October 31, 2024, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of i3 Energy Plc ("i3 Energy"), subsequently renamed as Gran Tierra UK Limited ("Gran Tierra UK") for $204.5 million, consisting of cash consideration of $161.8 million, cash dividend of $4.0 million, cash settlement of stock options of $2.0 million and 5,808,925 shares of the Company's Common Stock, the fair value of which was determined to be $36.7 million based on the closing price of the

------

Company's shares on the acquisition date. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method with Gran Tierra being the acquirer, whereby the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized at their fair values as at the i3 Energy acquisition date, and the results of i3 Energy were included with those of Gran Tierra from that date. Fair value estimates were made based on significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs and based on the best information available at the time.

Determining the fair values of the assets and liabilities of i3 Energy and the consideration paid required significant judgment and certain assumptions to be made. The most significant fair value estimates related to the valuation of i3 Energy's proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties. The fair value of proved oil and natural gas properties acquired is based on cash flows associated with estimated acquired proved oil and natural gas reserves and the discount rate. Factors that impact these reserves cash flows include forecasted production, forecasted commodity prices, and forecasted operating, royalty and capital costs.

Management is continuing to review and assess information to accurately determine the acquisition date fair value of the proved oil and natural gas properties and deferred tax assets and liabilities acquired. As at September 30, 2025, there were no changes to initial measurement of fair value of the proved oil and natural gas properties and deferred tax assets and liabilities acquired.

**Pro Forma Results (unaudited)**

Pro forma for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are shown below, as if the i3 Energy acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2024. Pro forma results are not indicative of actual results or future performance:

The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Gran Tierra Canada Ltd., has a revolving credit facility with National Bank of Canada dated March 22, 2024 with a borrowing base of C$100.0 million (US$71.8 million as of September 30, 2025) and the available commitment of a C$50.0 million (US$35.9 million as of September 30, 2025) revolving credit facility comprised of C$35.0 million (US$25.1 million as of September 30, 2025) syndicated facility and C$15.0 million (US$10.8 million as of September 30, 2025) of operating facility. The drawn down amounts under the revolving credit facility can either be in Canadian or U.S. dollars and bear interest rates equal to either the Canadian prime rate or U.S. Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 4.00% per annum or for CORRA loans and SOFR loans plus a margin ranging from 3.00% to 5.00% per annum. Undrawn amounts under the revolving credit facility bear standby fee ranging from 0.75% to 1.25% per annum. In each case, the margin or standby fee, as applicable is based on Net Debt to EBITDA ratio of Gran Tierra Canada Ltd. As of September 30, 2025, the outstanding balance under the facility was C$27.7 million (US$19.9 million) and the weighted-average interest rate on borrowings during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 6.64% and 6.48% respectively. On July 22, 2025, the borrowing base was redetermined by National Bank of Canada at C$100.0 million, of which available commitment is C$50.0 million.

***Credit Facility - Colombia***

On April 16, 2025, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Gran Tierra Energy Colombia GmbH, a Swiss limited liability company, entered into a $75.0 million reserve-based lending facility (the "RBL Facility"). Any loans incurred under the reserve-based landing facility will mature on April 16, 2028. The availability of borrowings under the RBL Facility is subject to an annual borrowing base determination which will occur on or before May 1 of each year. The RBL Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at Company's option, either (a) a customary base rate (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an applicable margin of 4.5% or (b) a term secured overnight finance rate ("SOFR") reference rate plus an applicable margin of 4.5%. Interest on base rate borrowings is payable quarterly in arrears and interest on term SOFR borrowings accrues in respect of interest periods of three or six months, at the election of the Company, and is payable on the last day of such interest period. The facility also includes a commitment fee of 1.58% per annum on undrawn amounts.

On October 23, 2025, the existing RBL facility was amended (" the Amended RBL Facility") to reduce the borrowing base to $60.0 million and revised certain related terms, including provisions governing borrowings, hedging obligations, and borrowing base redetermination. Under the terms of Amended RBL Facility, the Company is required to repay any amounts outstanding in excess of $20.0 million upon funding the oil prepayment agreement (Note 14) and the lender may initiate a redetermination of the borrowing base if advances requested by the Company are in excess of $20.0 million.

As of September 30, 2025 the outstanding balance under the RBL Facility was $24.5 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the weighted-average interest rate on borrowings was 9.05% and 8.79%, respectively.

Under the terms of the RBL Facility, the Company is required to maintain compliance with the following financial covenants:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.consolidated net debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA ratio that may not exceed 3.00 to 1.00, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii.consolidated interest coverage ratio that may not be less than 2.50 to 1.00

The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants related to the RBL facility as of September 30, 2025.

***Senior Notes***

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company paid at maturity the remaining principal of $24.8 million of 6.25% Senior Notes due in February 2025 for cash consideration of $25.6 million, including interest payable of $0.8 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company also purchased $1.8 million of outstanding 9.50% Senior Notes for cash consideration of $1.7 million resulting in a $0.1 million loss on purchase, which included the write-off of deferred financing fees of $0.1 million.

On May 1, 2024, the Company amended the settlement terms of all outstanding stock option awards. As of this date, all outstanding stock options are to be net settled in cash resulting in a change in classification of stock options from equity to liability. On May 1, 2024, the Company recorded a liability of $4.4 million and an additional stock-based compensation costs of

$0.4 million related to the modification of the stock option plan.

As at September 30, 2025, the equity compensation award liability on the Company's balance sheet included $1.0 million of current liability related to the Company's outstanding stock options.

The fair value of each stock option award was estimated on the modification date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model based on the assumptions noted in the following table:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Fair value of option modification | $0.00 - $6.11  |
| Dividend yield (per share) | Nil |
| Expected volatility | 43% to 87% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.6% to 5.1% |
| Expected term | 0.1 - 4.9 years |
| Expected forfeiture rate | 0% to 5% |

---

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, there was $0.1 million and $0.2 million of stock-based compensation expense, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, there was $3.1 million of stock-based compensation recovery and $6.4 million of stock-based compensation expense, respectively.

As at September 30, 2025, there was $10.9 million (December 31, 2024 - $21.9 million) of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested PSUs, RSUs and stock options, which are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company paid out $7.2 million for PSUs vested on December 31, 2024 (nine months ended September 30, 2024 - $10.4 million for PSUs vested on December 31, 2023).

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company awarded 0.1 million and 0.6 million RSU to employees pursuant to the existing 2007 Equity Incentive Plan, respectively. Under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan, RSUs will vest one-third each year over a three-year period. Upon vesting, RSUs entitle the holder to receive either the underlying number of shares of the Company's Common Stock or a cash payment equal to the value of the underlying shares of the Company's Common Stock. The Company intends to settle RSUs outstanding as at September 30, 2025, in cash.

***Net Income (Loss) per Share***

Basic net income or loss per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding during each period.

Diluted net income or loss per share is calculated using the treasury stock method for share-based compensation arrangements. The treasury stock method assumes that any proceeds obtained on the exercise of share-based compensation arrangements would be used to purchase shares of Common Stock at the average market price during the period. The weighted average number of shares is then adjusted by the difference between the number of shares issued from the exercise of share-based compensation arrangements and shares re-purchased from the related proceeds. Anti-dilutive shares represent potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted income or loss per share as their impact would be anti-dilutive.

***Weighted Average Shares Outstanding***

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, all options were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation as the options were anti-dilutive.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company's production was sold primarily to one major customer representing 66% of the total sales volumes, of which 75% was sold in Colombia, 15% in Ecuador and 10% in Canada (three months ended September 30, 2024, one major customer representing 100% of total sales volumes in Colombia and Ecuador).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company's production was sold primarily to one major customer representing 65% of the total sales volumes of which 79% was sold in Colombia, 11% in Ecuador and 10% in Canada (nine months ended September 30, 2024, one major customer representing 100% of total sales volumes in Colombia and Ecuador).

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company retrospectively reclassified transportation expenses against revenue, which were previously recorded separately from revenue, resulting in decrease of revenue by immaterial impact of $3.1 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

As at September 30, 2025, accounts receivable included $11.9 million of accrued sales revenue related to September 2025 production (December 31, 2024 - $13.4 million related to December 2024 production).

**10. Taxes**

The Company's effective tax rate was 6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 44% in the comparative period of 2024.

Current income tax expense was $14.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $61.4 million in the corresponding period of 2024, primarily due to lower taxable income.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized a deferred tax recovery of $17.6 million, primarily attributable to an increase in deductible temporary differences arising from tax losses generated during the period. This recovery was partially offset by temporary differences related to accelerated tax depreciation in excess of accounting depreciation.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the deferred income tax recovery was $32.3 million primarily as a result of the recognition of additional tax losses resulting from a tax planning.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the difference between the effective tax rate of 6% and the 35% statutory tax rate was primarily due to permanent differences and valuation allowance. This was partially offset by an increase in the impact of foreign taxes.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the difference between the effective tax rate of 44% and the 50% Colombian tax rate was primarily due to a decrease in the impact of foreign taxes, 2022 true-up related to tax planning and non-taxable

foreign exchange adjustments. These were partially offset by an increase in valuation allowance, other permanent differences, non-deductible stock-based compensation and non-deductible royalties in Colombia.

**11. Contingencies**

***Legal Proceedings***

The Company has several lawsuits and claims pending. The outcome of the lawsuits and disputes cannot be predicted with certainty; the Company believes the resolution of these matters would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company records costs as they are incurred or become probable and determinable.

***Letters of Credit and Other Credit Support***

At September 30, 2025, the Company had provided letters of credit and other credit support totaling $218.2 million (December 31, 2024 - $244.5 million) as security relating to work commitment guarantees in Colombia and Ecuador contained in exploration contracts, the Suroriente Block, and other capital or operating requirements as well as for transportation capacity in Canada.

**12. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurement**

***Financial Instruments***

Financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value, defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to market participants to settle liability at the measurement date. For financial instruments carried at fair value, GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1 - Inputs representing quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for assets and liabilities

At September 30, 2025, the Company's financial instruments recognized on the balance sheet consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, commodity derivatives, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, long-term debt and other long-term liabilities. The Company uses appropriate valuation techniques based on the available information to measure the fair values of assets and liabilities.

***Fair Value Measurement***

The following table presents the Company's fair value measurements of its financial instruments as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

---

<sup>(1)</sup> The long-term portion of restricted cash and cash equivalents is included in the other long-term assets on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

<sup>(2)</sup> The current portion of commodity derivatives asset was included into other current assets on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

<sup>(3)</sup> The current portion of commodity derivatives liability was included into accounts payable balance on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, current restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

*Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents - Long-Term*

The fair value of long-term restricted cash and cash equivalents approximate its carrying value because interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates.

*Credit Facilities and Senior Notes* 

Financial instruments recorded at amortized cost at September 30, 2025, were the Senior Notes and credit facilities (Note 7).

The fair value of the Canadian and Colombian credit facilities approximates their carrying value. The fair value of the Canadian and Colombian credit facilities is estimated based on the amount the Company would have to pay a third party to assume the debt, including the credit spread for the difference between the issue rate and the period-end market rate. The credit spread is the Company's default or repayment risk.

At September 30, 2025, the carrying amounts of the 7.75% Senior Notes and 9.50% Senior Notes were $24.1 million and $687.9 million, respectively, which represented the aggregate principal amounts less unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts, and the fair values were $20.8 million, and $622.4 million, respectively.

*Derivative asset and derivative liability*

The fair value of derivatives is estimated based on various factors, including quoted market prices in active markets and quotes from third parties. The Company also performs an internal valuation to ensure the reasonableness of third party quotes. In consideration of counterparty credit risk, the Company assessed the possibility of whether the counterparty to the derivative would default by failing to make any contractually required payments. Additionally, the Company considers whether such counterparty has the ability to meet its potential repayment obligations associated with the derivative transactions.

*Commodity Price Risk*

The Company may at times utilize commodity price derivatives to manage the variability in cash flows associated with the forecasted sale of its oil production, reduce commodity price risk and provide a base level of cash flow in order to assure it can execute at least a portion of its capital spending. As at September 30, 2025, the Company had outstanding commodity price derivative positions as follows:

**Financial and Operational Highlights** 

**Key Highlights for the third quarter of 2025**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net loss for the third quarter of 2025 was $20.0 million or $(0.57) per share basic and diluted, compared to a net income of $1.1 million or $0.04 per share basic and diluted for the third quarter of 2024 and a net loss of $12.7 million for the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Loss before income taxes for the third quarter of 2025 was $31.2 million, compared to income before income taxes of $21.9 million for the third quarter of 2024 and loss before income taxes of $8.1 million for the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Brent oil price averaged $68.17 per bbl during the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of 13% from the comparable period in 2024, and a 2% increase from the prior quarter. Castilla, Vasconia and Oriente differentials averaged $4.88, $1.88 and $7.20 per bbl during the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of 45%, 63% and 21% from the comparable period of 2024, and an increase of 3% and 10% for Castilla and Vasconia differentials offset by a decrease of 1% for Oriente differential from the prior quarter, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Adjusted EBITDA<sup>(2)</sup> was $69.0 million for the third quarter of 2025, a decrease from $92.8 million in the third quarter of 2024, and a decrease from $77.0 million in the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Funds flow from operations<sup>(2)</sup> decreased to $41.7 million compared to $60.3 million in the third quarter of 2024, and decreased from $53.9 million in the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** During the third quarter of 2025, there were no share re-purchases. For the period from November 6, 2024 to October 29, 2025, we re-purchased a total of 1.2 million shares or 3% of the outstanding shares as of September 30, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• NAR production for the third quarter of 2025 increased by 38% to 35,962 BOEPD, compared to 25,988 BOEPD in the third quarter of 2024 due to the production from Canadian operations acquired on October 31, 2024 and successful exploration well drilling results in Ecuador, and decreased by 10% from 39,800 BOEPD in the prior quarter as a result of a landslide in Ecuador that required the shut in of all Ecuador production for several weeks and trunk line repairs at the Moqueta field which resulted in the field being shut in for the quarter. Current production from October 1, 2025 to October 29, 2025 is approximately 45,200 BOEPD.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** NAR sales volumes for the third quarter of 2025 increased by 47% to 37,353 BOEPD, compared to 25,464 BOEPD in the third quarter of 2024 and decreased by 3% from 38,331 BOEPD in the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Oil, natural gas and NGL sales for the third quarter of 2025 decreased by 1% to $149.3 million, compared to the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to lower oil prices partially offset by an increase in sales volumes. Oil, natural gas and NGL sales were comparable with the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** On per boe basis, operating expenses increased 1% compared to the corresponding period of 2024 and increased 24% from the prior quarter. Operating expenses increased by 48% to $68.4 million when compared to the third quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of new Canadian operations and ramp-up of operations in Ecuador. Operating expenses increased by 22% from $55.9 million in the prior quarter primarily as a result of higher workover activities and lifting costs attributed to inventory fluctuation in Ecuador due to the timing of sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Transportation expenses increased by 10% when compared to the third quarter of 2024 primarily due to 47% higher sales volumes attributed to new Canadian operations and higher sales volumes in Ecuador, partially offset by lower volumes transported in Colombia. Transportation expenses decreased by 4% compared to the prior quarter primarily as a result of lower sales volumes transported from Acordionero field in Colombia.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gross profit decreased 70% to $14.7 million compared to $48.8 million in the third quarter of 2024 and 36% from $23.1 million in the prior quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Operating Netback<sup>(2)</sup> decreased to $76.6 million compared to $101.4 million in the third quarter of 2024 and $89.0 million in the prior quarter.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Quality and transportation discounts for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $24.74 per boe compared to $14.10 per boe in the third quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of the change in production mix with the acquisition of Canadian operations, and $23.89 per boe in the prior quarter as a result of higher Castilla and Vasconia differentials.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** General and administrative ("G&A") expenses before stock-based compensation for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $13.5 million compared to $9.5 million in the third quarter of 2024, due to the addition of the new Canadian operations, and decreased from $14.5 million in the prior quarter due to lower business development costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Capital expenditures for the third quarter of 2025 were $57.3 million compared to $52.9 million in the third quarter of 2024 and $51.2 million in the prior quarter. This increase in capital expenditure activity is in line with the Company's budgeted capital spend for 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The temporary excise tax levied on oil sales was introduced by the Colombian government under a state of emergency declared in 2025. The tax applies to the first sale or export of crude oil at a rate of 1% starting from February 2025 and is scheduled to remain in force until December 2025. All temporary taxes enacted under the state of emergency are currently under review by the Constitutional Court, the ruling of which could potentially invalidate these measures

<sup>(1)</sup> Sales volumes represent production NAR adjusted for inventory changes.

<sup>(2)</sup> Non-GAAP measures.

Gross profit is derived from oil, natural gas and NGL sales, net of direct production costs including operating expenses, transportation, and depletion, depreciation, and accretion ("DD&A"). Gross profit does not include general and administrative expenses, interest, taxes, or other non-operating items.

Operating netback, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and funds flow from operations are non-GAAP measures that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under GAAP. Management views these measures as financial performance measures. Investors are cautioned that these measures should not be construed as alternatives to oil sales, net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating these measures may differ from other companies and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Disclosure of each non-GAAP financial measure is preceded by the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure.

Operating netback, as presented, is defined as gross profit adjusted for depletion and accretion related to producing assets. Management believes that operating netback is a useful supplemental measure for management and investors to analyze financial performance and provides an indication of the results generated by

------

our principal business activities prior to the consideration of other income and expenses. A reconciliation from oil sales to operating netback is provided in the table below.

Funds flow from operations, as presented, is defined as net (loss) income adjusted for DD&A expenses, deferred income tax expense or recovery, stock-based compensation expense or recovery, amortization of debt issuance costs, non-cash lease expense, lease payments, unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, unrealized derivative instruments loss or gain and other loss. Management uses this financial measure to analyze performance and income generated by our principal business activities prior to the consideration of how non-cash items affect that income and believes that this financial measure is also useful supplemental information for investors to analyze performance and our financial results. A reconciliation from net loss to funds flow from operations is as follows:

***Oil, natural gas and NGL production NAR*** for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased by 38% and 47%, to 35,962 BOEPD and 38,099 BOEPD, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of 2024 due to the production from the Canadian operations acquired on October 31, 2024 and successful exploration well drilling results in Ecuador. Oil, natural gas and NGL production NAR decreased by 10% compared to the prior quarter primarily due to a landslide in Ecuador that required the shut in of all Ecuador production for several weeks and trunk line repairs at the Moqueta field which resulted in the field being shut in for the quarter. Current production from October 1, 2025 to October 29, 2025 is approximately 45,200 boepd.

***Royalties*** as a percentage of production for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased by 5% and 4%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of 2024 as a result of a decrease in benchmark oil prices due to the price sensitive royalty regime in Colombia and Ecuador, and lower royalties for Canadian operations. Royalties as a percentage of production were comparable to the prior quarter.

**Brent *-*** For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Brent decreased 13% and 15% from the comparable periods of 2024, and increased 2% from the prior quarter. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, Castilla, Vasconia and Oriente differentials per boe decreased to $4.88, $1.88 and $7.20 compared to $8.83, $5.07 and $9.15 in the corresponding period of 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Castilla, Vasconia and Oriente differentials per boe decreased to $4.98, $1.95 and $7.37 from $8.62, $4.70 and $8.52 in the corresponding period of 2024.

During the third quarter of 2025, 100% of sales from South America were priced against Brent.

***Canada***

Gran Tierra entered Canada with the acquisition of i3 Energy which closed on October 31, 2024, therefore no comparative data is provided for the corresponding periods of 2024.

**WTI *-*** For the three months ended September 30, 2025, WTI increased 2% from the prior quarter. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, 25% of NAR production in Canada was oil, compared with 26% in the prior quarter.

**NGLs** - For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the weighted average NGL price received was 9% of WTI, consistent with the prior quarter. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, 21% of NAR production in Canada was NGLs, compared to 24% in the prior quarter.

**AECO** - For the three months ended September 30, 2025, AECO price decreased 63% from the prior quarter. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, 54% of NAR production in Canada was natural gas, compared to 50% in the prior quarter.

***Oil, natural gas and NGL sales*** for the three months ended September 30, 2025, decreased by 1% to $149.3 million compared to the corresponding period of 2024, due to 13% decrease in Brent price and 19% lower sales volumes in Colombia partially offset by 47% increase in sales volumes, attributed to sales from Canadian operations acquired on October 31, 2024 and sales from positive exploration drilling in Ecuador. Oil, natural gas and NGL sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreased by 2% to $466.8 million compared to the corresponding period of 2024 due to 15% decrease in Brent price and 16% decrease in sales volumes in Colombia, partially offset by a 49% increase in sales volumes attributed to sales from Canadian operations and new exploration wells in Ecuador.

Oil, natural gas and NGL sales were comparable with the prior quarter

***Operating expense*s** for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased to $68.4 million or by $0.24 per boe to $19.90 compared to the corresponding period of 2024, due to new Canadian operations and ramp-up of operations in Ecuador.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased to $191.6 million compared to the corresponding period of 2024 for the same reason mentioned above. On a per boe basis, operating expenses decreased by $1.84 to $18.36 compared to the corresponding period of 2024, primarily due higher sales volumes in Ecuador and sales from new Canadian operations.

Compared to the prior quarter, operating expenses increased from $55.9 million or by $3.89 from $16.01 per boe due to higher workover activities and lifting costs associated with inventory fluctuation in Ecuador due to the timing of sales.

***Transportation expenses***

We have options to sell our oil through multiple pipelines and various trucking routes. Each option has varying effects on realized sales price and transportation expenses. The following table shows the percentage of oil, natural gas and NGL volumes we sold in Canada, Colombia and Ecuador using each option for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and the prior quarter:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three Months Ended September 30,** | **Three Months Ended September 30,** | **Three Months Ended June 30,** | **Nine Months Ended September 30,** | **Nine Months Ended September 30,** |
| | **2025** | **2024** | **2025** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Volume transported through pipeline | **47%** | 5% | 44% | **46%** | 4% |
| Volume sold at wellhead | **24%** | 46% | 25% | **29%** | 47% |
| Volume transported via truck to sales point | **29%** | 49% | 31% | **25%** | 49% |
|  | **100%** | 100% | 100% | **100%** | 100% |

---

Volumes transported through pipeline or via truck receive a higher realized price but incur higher transportation expenses. Conversely, volumes sold at the wellhead have the opposite effect of a lower realized price, offset by lower transportation expenses.

***Transportation expenses*** for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased by 10% to $4.3 million or by $0.42 to $1.25 per boe, compared to the corresponding period of 2024, due to the new Canadian operations, higher sales volumes transported in Ecuador partially offset by lower sales volumes transported in Colombia.

Transportation expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreased by 6% to $13.3 million or by $0.74 to $1.28 per boe, compared to the corresponding period of 2024, due to lower sales volumes transported in Colombia partially offset by sales volumes from a new Canada operations and the higher sales volumes transported in Ecuador.

Transportation expenses decreased by 4% or $0.04 per boe from $4.5 million or $1.29 per boe in the prior quarter due to lower sales volumes transported from Acordionero field in Colombia.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we had a $0.3 million loss and $7.8 million loss on foreign exchange compared to a $3.1 million gain and $8.3 million gain on foreign exchange in the corresponding periods of 2024 and a $3.7 million loss on foreign exchange in the prior quarter. Accounts payable, taxes receivable and payable and deferred income taxes are considered monetary items and require translation from local currencies to U.S. dollar functional currency at each balance sheet date. This translation was the primary source of the foreign exchange gains and losses in the periods.

---

Current income tax expense was $14.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $61.4 million in the corresponding period of 2024, primarily due to lower taxable income.

The deferred tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was a recovery of $17.6 million mainly due to an increase in deductible temporary differences arising from tax losses generated during the period. These were partially offset by higher tax depreciation relative to accounting depreciation.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the deferred income tax was a recovery of $32.3 million, primarily as a result of the recognition of additional tax losses resulting from a tax planning strategy.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the difference between the effective tax rate of negative 6% and the 35% statutory tax rate was primarily due to permanent differences and valuation allowance. This was partially offset by an increase in the impact of foreign taxes.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the difference between the effective tax rate of 44% and the 50% Colombian tax rate was primarily due to a lower impact of foreign taxes, 2022 true-up related to tax planning strategy and non-taxable foreign exchange adjustments. These were partially offset by an increase in valuation allowance, other permanent differences, non-deductible stock-based compensation and non-deductible royalties in Colombia.

We believe that our capital resources, including cash on hand, cash generated from operations and available borrowings under our credit facilities and prepayment structure, will provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our strategic objectives and planned capital program for the next 12 months, including the repayment of 25% of the principal amount of 9.50% Senior Notes due October 15, 2026, given the current oil price trends and production levels. Beyond the next 12 months, the Company may require the support of its lenders to renew existing lending arrangements and may also access to capital markets to pursue financing, including for the re-purchase of common stock or the repayment of debt in the future. In accordance with our investment policy, available cash balances are held in our primary cash management banks or may be invested in U.S. or Canadian government-backed federal, provincial or state securities or other money market instruments with high credit ratings and short-term liquidity. We believe that our current financial position provides us with the flexibility to respond to both internal growth opportunities and those available through acquisitions. We intend to pursue growth opportunities and acquisitions from time to time, which may require significant capital to be located in basins or countries beyond our current operations, involve joint ventures, or be sizable compared to our current assets and operations.

On October 24, 2025, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Gran Tierra Energy Colombia GmbH, entered into crude oil sale and purchase agreement where we will receive an advance of up to $150.0 million related to Ecuador production. An additional advance of $50.0 million is available to the Company, at the sole discretion of the lender and subject to completion of certain conditions.

***Credit Facility - Canada***

We, through our wholly owned subsidiary Gran Tierra Canada Ltd., have a revolving credit facility with National Bank of Canada dated March 22, 2024 with a borrowing base of C$100.0 million (US$71.8 million as of September 30, 2025) and the available commitment of a C$50.0 million (US$35.9 million as of September 30, 2025) revolving credit facility comprised of C$35.0 million (US$25.1 million as of September 30, 2025) syndicated facility and C$15.0 million (US$10.8 million as of September 30, 2025) of operating facility. The drawn down amounts under the revolving credit facility can either be in Canadian or U.S. dollars and bear interest rates equal to either the Canadian prime rate or U.S. Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 4.00% per annum or for CORRA loans and SOFR loans plus a margin ranging from 3.00% to 5.00% per annum. Undrawn amounts under the revolving credit facility bear standby fee ranging from 0.75% to 1.25% per annum. In each case,

------

the margin or standby fee, as applicable is based on Net Debt to EBITDA ratio of Gran Tierra Canada Ltd. As of September 30, 2025, the outstanding balance under the facility was US$19.9 million (C$30.0 million) and the weighted-average interest rate on borrowings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 6.64% and 6.48%, respectively. On July 22, 2025, the borrowing base was redetermined by National Bank of Canada at C$100.0 million, of which available commitment is C$50.0 million.

On October 30, 2025, the existing revolving credit facility was amended to increase available commitment amount from C$50.0 million (US$35.9 million as of September 30, 2025) to C$75.0 million (US$53.9 million as of September 30, 2025) and extend the term to a two-year maturing October 30, 2027. The borrowing base was maintained at C$100.0 million.

***Credit Facility - Colombia***

On April 16, 2025, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Gran Tierra Energy Colombia GmbH, a Swiss limited liability company, entered into a $75.0 million reserve-based lending facility. Any loans incurred under the new facility will mature on April 16, 2028 and will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either (a) a customary base rate (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an applicable margin of 4.50% or (b) a term SOFR reference rate plus an applicable margin of 4.50%. Interest on base rate borrowings is payable quarterly in arrears and interest on term SOFR borrowings accrues in respect of interest periods of three or six months, at the election of the Company, and is payable on the last day of such interest period.

On October 23, 2025, the existing RBL facility was amended (" the Amended RBL Facility") to reduce the borrowing base to $60.0 million and revised certain related terms, including provisions governing borrowings, hedging obligations, and borrowing base redetermination. Under the terms of Amended RBL Facility, we are required to repay any amounts outstanding in excess of $20.0 million upon funding the oil prepayment agreement and the lender may initiate a redetermination of the borrowing base if advances requested by us are in excess of $20.0 million.

As of September 30, 2025 the outstanding balance under the RBL Facility was $24.5 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the weighted-average interest rate on borrowings was 9.05% and 8.79%, respectively.

Under the terms of the facility, we are required to maintain compliance with the following financial covenants:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.consolidated net debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA ratio that may not exceed 3.00 to 1.00, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii.consolidated interest coverage ratio that may not be less than 2.50 to 1.00

***Senior Notes***

At September 30, 2025, we had $24.2 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 7.75% Senior Notes due 2027, and $735.8 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 9.50% Senior Notes due 2029.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we paid at maturity the remaining principal of $24.8 million of 6.25% Senior Notes due in February 2025 for cash consideration of $25.6 million, including interest payable of $0.8 million.

The principal amount of 9.50% Senior Notes is to be repaid as follows: (i) October 15, 2026, 25% of the principal amount; (ii) October 15, 2027 5% of the principal amount; (iii) October 15, 2028, 30% of the principal amount; and (iv) October 15, 2029, the remainder of the principal amount.

We were in compliance with all applicable covenants related to credit facilities and Senior Notes as of September 30, 2025.

***Share Repurchase Program, NCIB***

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we re-purchased nil and 692,804 shares under the 2024 Program at a weighted average price of nil and $5.00 per share (three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 - 371,130 and 1,662,110 shares under the 2023 program at a weighted average price of $9.37 and $7.31 per share). Under the 2024 Program, we were able to re-purchase at prevailing market prices up to 3,545,872 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 10% of the public float as of October 31, 2024. We cancelled 487,948 held as treasury shares as at December 31, 2024 and cancelled 10,000 shares re-purchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. During the period from November 6, 2024 to October 29, 2025, we have re-purchased 1,180,752 shares under the 2024 Program.

***Acquisitions and Dispositions***

On September 8, 2025, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Gran Tierra UK Limited, a United Kingdom limited company, closed the sale agreement for its wholly owned subsidiary, Gran Tierra North Sea Limited ("GTNSL") to NEO Energy for total consideration of $7.5 million. The deferred income tax asset balance of $7.5 million has been applied against total consideration and resulted in zero gain or loss on sale.

On July 31, 2025, we, through our indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Gran Tierra Energy Ecuador 1 GmbH and Gran Tierra Energy Ecuador 2 GmbH, have entered into definitive agreements to acquire all of GeoPark Ecuador S.A.'s and Frontera Energy Colombia Corp Sucursal Ecuador's interests in the Perico and Espejo Blocks (the "Blocks") and their associated Consortiums (the "Consortiums").

The aggregate purchase price for the Blocks and Consortiums is $15.5 million, subject to customary working capital adjustments as of the effective date of January 1, 2025. The agreement includes an additional contingent consideration of $1.5 million, payable upon the Perico Block achieving cumulative gross production of two million barrels starting from January 1, 2025. The acquisitions are expected to close upon satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals for closing and operations takeover from the Ministry of Energy of Ecuador. Closing is anticipated no earlier than the fourth quarter of 2025.

<sup>(1)</sup> Adjusted EBITDA and funds flow from operations are non-GAAP measures which do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under GAAP. Refer to note 2 "Non-GAAP measures" in "Financial and Operational Highlights" for a definition and reconciliation of this measure.

One of the primary sources of variability in our cash flows from operating activities is the fluctuation in oil prices. Sales volume changes, costs related to operations and debt transactions also impact cash flows. Our cash flows from operating activities are also impacted by foreign currency exchange rate changes. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, funds flow from operations decreased by 31% compared to the corresponding period of 2024, due to a decrease in Brent price, higher operating expenses and higher transportation cost partially offset by higher sales volumes, lower differentials and lower current income tax expense. Funds flow from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, decreased by 17% compared to the corresponding period of 2024, primarily due to decrease in Brent price, higher operating expenses, higher interest expense partially offset by higher sales volumes, lower differentials and lower current income tax expense.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are disclosed in Item 7 of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K and have not changed materially since the filing of that document.

**Item 3. *Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk***

**Commodity Price Risk**

Our principal market risk relates to oil, natural gas and NGL prices which are volatile and unpredictable and influenced by concerns over world supply and demand imbalance and many other market factors outside of our control. Our revenues are from oil sales at Brent or Edmonton Light pricing and for gas at AECO pricing and adjusted for quality. As at September 30, 2025, the Company had 1,782 and 562 weighted average bopd crude volumes hedged up to December 31, 2026, in Colombia and Canada, respectively, as well as 22,500 weighted average GJ/day natural gas volumes hedged for Q4 2025 and 10,000 weighted average GJ/day natural gas volumes hedged for second and third quarters of 2026. The Company entered into an additional 10,000 weighted average GJ/day natural gas derivative from January 01, 2026 up to October 31, 2026 as well as 2,500 weighted average bopd crude volumes from January 01, 2026 up to December 31, 2026, subsequent to the quarter-end, to manage the variability of cash flows associated with the forecasted sale of our production, reduce commodity price risk and provide a base level of cash flow in order to assure we can execute at least a portion of our capital spending.

**Foreign Currency Risk** 

Foreign currency risk is a factor for our Company but is ameliorated to a certain degree by the nature of expenditures and revenues in the countries where we operate. Our reporting currency is U.S. dollars and 82% of our revenues are related to the U.S. dollar price of Brent with the remainder related to Canadian dollar price of WTI oil or AECO gas. In Colombia and Ecuador, we receive 100% of our revenues in U.S. dollars and the majority of our capital expenditures is in U.S. dollars or is based on U.S. dollar prices. The majority of income and value added taxes and G&A expenses in all locations are in local

------

currency. In Canada, we receive 100% of our revenue in Canadian dollar and majority of our capital and operating expenditures are in Canadian dollars or are based on Canadian dollar prices.

Additionally, foreign exchange gains and losses result primarily from the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar to the Colombian peso due to our accounts payable, taxes receivable and payable and deferred tax assets and liabilities in Colombia are denominated in the local currency of the Colombian foreign operations which are our monetary assets. As a result, a foreign exchange gain or loss must be calculated on conversion to the U.S. dollar reporting currency.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company crystallized $80 million nominal USD$(COP$323,600 million) in outstanding foreign currency derivatives for a gain of $6 million (COP$30,800 million) and as at September 30, 2025 had no outstanding foreign currency derivative positions.

**Interest Rate Risk**

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. We are exposed to interest rate fluctuations on our Canadian revolving credit facility and Colombian reserve-based lending ("RBL") facility, which bear floating rates of interest. As of September 30, 2025 our outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility was US$19.9 million (C$30.0 million) and $24.5 million under the RBL facility (December 31, 2024 - nil).

**Item 4. *Controls and Procedures***

**Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by Gran Tierra in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, as required by Rule l3a-15(b) of the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that Gran Tierra's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

On October 31, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of i3 Energy Plc ("i3 Energy"), a publicly traded oil and gas company that was listed on the TSX venture exchange. i3 Energy's operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements of Gran Tierra since October 31, 2024. However, Gran Tierra has not yet completed its assessment of the disclosure controls and procedures, and internal controls over financial reporting previously used by i3 Energy, and integrate them with those of Gran Tierra. As a result, the certifying officers have limited the scope of their design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting to exclude controls, policies and procedures of i3 Energy (as permitted by applicable securities laws in U.S.). Gran Tierra has a program in place to complete its assessment of the controls, policies and procedures of the acquired operations by October 31, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the assets previously held by i3 Energy, contributed $87.3 million (representing 19%) of total Company's oil, natural gas and NGL revenue and as at September 30, 2025, there were $291.7 million of total assets associated with acquired entity.

**PART II - Other Information**

**Item 1. *Legal Proceedings***

See Note 11 in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference, for any material developments with respect to matters previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and any material matters that have arisen since the filing of such report.

------

**Item 1A. *Risk Factors***

There are numerous factors that affect our business and results of operations, many of which are beyond our control. In addition to information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including in Part I, Item 2 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", you should carefully read and consider the factors set out in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. These risk factors could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The unprecedented nature of ongoing conflicts in several parts of the world, along with volatility in the worldwide economy and oil and gas industry may make it more difficult to identify all the risks to our business, results of operations and financial condition and the ultimate impact of identified risks.

<sup>(2)</sup> On October 31, 2024, we implemented a share re-purchase program (the "2024 Program") through the facilities of the TSX, the NYSE American or alternative programs in Canada or the United States. Under the 2024 Program, the Company is able to purchase at prevailing market prices up to 3,545,872 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 10% of the public float as of October 31, 2024. The 2024 Program will expire on November 5, 2025.

**Item 5. *Other Information***

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, no director or Section 16 officer adopted or terminated any Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements (in each case, as defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.10Enurement**.

The Loan Documents will be binding upon and will enure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.11Amendments**.

No Loan Document may be amended orally and, subject to Sections [1.12(a),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) [16.16](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) and [17.1(e),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) any amendment may only be made by way of an instrument in writing signed by the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.12No Waiver**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Subject to Sections [1.12(c)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) and [16.16(a),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) no waiver by a Party of any provision or of the breach of any provision of the Loan Documents will be effective unless it is contained in a written instrument duly executed by an authorized officer or representative of such Party. Such written waiver will affect only the matter specifically identified in the instrument granting the waiver and will not extend to any other matter, provision or breach.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The failure of a Party to take any steps in exercising any right in respect of the breach or non-fulfillment of any provision of the Loan Documents will not operate as a waiver of that right, breach or provision, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right preclude any other or future exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right, whether in Law or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Acceptance of payment by a Party after a breach or non-fulfillment of any provision of the Loan Documents requiring a payment to such Party will constitute a waiver of such provision if cured by such payment but will not constitute a waiver or cure of any other provision of the Loan Documents.

If the whole or any portion of this Agreement or the application thereof to any circumstance will be held invalid or unenforceable to an extent that does not affect the operation of this Agreement in question in a fundamental way, the remainder of this Agreement in question, or its application to any circumstance other than that to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, will not be affected thereby and will be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.14Inconsistency**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.15Accounting Terms and Principles**.

Except as otherwise expressly provided, all accounting terms, principles and calculations applicable to the Credit Facilities will be interpreted, applied and calculated, as the case may be, in accordance with GAAP. The basis of accounting and all calculations set out in this Agreement will be applied and made on a consistent basis and will not be changed for the purposes of this Agreement unless required by GAAP or as agreed to by the Majority Lenders in writing, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld. It will be reasonable for the Lenders to withhold their consent if a proposed change could adversely affect the obligations of the Borrower or rights of the Lenders under the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.16Accounting Changes**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)In the event that any Accounting Change occurs, the Borrower will deliver an Accounting Change Notice to the Agent together with a description of the nature of such Accounting Change and the effect, if any, of the Accounting Change on the Borrower's current and immediately prior year's financial statements. If the Borrower, the Agent or the Majority Lenders reasonably determine that any such change would cause an amount required to be determined for the purposes of any financial calculation hereunder (including for the purposes of determining the applicable margin in Section [3.8(a))](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) (each, a "**Financial Calculation**") to be materially different than the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such change, then the Borrower, the Agent or the Majority Lenders, as the case may be, shall deliver an Accounting Change Notice to the other Parties (through the Agent) of such Accounting Change. Such notice shall state whether the Borrower, the Agent or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, wishes to revise the method of calculating one or more of the Financial Calculations (including the revision of any of the defined terms used in the determination of such Financial Calculation(s)) in order that amounts determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change and the revised method of calculating such Financial Calculation(s) will approximate the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such Accounting Change and without giving effect to the revised method of calculating such Financial Calculation(s). The Accounting Change Notice shall be delivered by the Borrower to the Agent within 60 days after the end of the Fiscal Quarter in which the Accounting Change is implemented or, if such Accounting Change is implemented in the fourth Fiscal Quarter or in respect of an entire Fiscal Year, within 120 days after the end of such period. Following receipt of an Accounting Change Notice, either the Borrower or the Majority Lenders may provide a proposal to the other as to how to amend the provisions of this Agreement to give effect to the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)If, pursuant to the Accounting Change Notice, the Borrower, does not indicate that it desires to revise the method of calculating one or more of the Financial Calculations, the Majority Lenders or the Agent, as applicable, may within 30 days after receipt of the Accounting Change Notice, notify the Borrower that they

- 6 -

wish to revise the method of calculating one or more of the Financial Calculations in the manner described above.

54411012.5

------

- 7 -

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If the Agent, the Borrower or the Majority Lenders so indicate that they wish to revise the method of calculating one or more of the Financial Calculations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall in good faith attempt to agree on a revised method of calculating such Financial Calculation, provided that until such time as any such agreement in writing has been reached, such method of calculation shall not be revised and all amounts to be determined thereunder shall be determined without giving effect to the Accounting Change. For greater certainty, if no notice of a desire to revise the method of calculating the Financial Calculations in respect of an Accounting Change is given by either the Borrower, the Agent or the Majority Lenders within the applicable time period described above, then the method of calculating the Financial Calculations shall not be revised in response to such Accounting Change and all amounts to be determined pursuant to the Financial Calculations shall be determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)If a Compliance Certificate is delivered in respect of a Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Year in which an Accounting Change is implemented without giving effect to any revised method of calculating any of the Financial Calculations, and subsequently, as provided above, the method of calculating the Financial Calculation is revised in response to such Accounting Change, or the amounts to be determined pursuant to the Financial Calculations are to be determined without giving effect to such Accounting Change, the Borrower shall, as soon as reasonably possible, deliver a revised Compliance Certificate. Any Event of Default which arises as a result of the Accounting Change, and which is cured by this Section [1.16](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) shall be deemed to have never occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)For the purposes of this Agreement, including all Financial Calculations required to be made hereunder, any lease which would have been accounted for as an operating lease under GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2018, shall, notwithstanding any subsequent change in GAAP, not constitute a Capital Lease hereunder (whether such lease is entered into or assumed before or after December 31, 2018).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.17Changes to ARO Framework**

If, as a result of any change in any applicable Law, rule, policy, regulation, order or directive (or any changes of any Energy Regulator in its interpretation of any then-existing applicable Law, rule, policy, regulation, order or directive), any applicable Energy Regulator creates, institutes, or revises its methodology for determining (a) whether a Person is in compliance with such Energy Regulator's abandonment and reclamation rules, policies, regulations, orders or directives in any ARO Relevant Jurisdiction, (b) whether any licenses, authorizations or permits, as applicable, for wells, facilities, pipelines and other physical assets can be issued or transferred,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) whether any security deposits are or will be required to be provided to the applicable Energy Regulator relating to either new or ongoing day to day operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or (d) inventory reduction or mandatory spending requirements, as applicable, and

54411012.5

------

- 8 -

such change is determined to be material by the Borrower, the Agent or the Majority Lenders (each acting reasonably), then, in any such case, at the written request of the Agent or the Majority Lenders to the Borrower, or of the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders, the Borrower and the

54411012.5

------

- 9 -

Agent shall enter into good faith discussions with a view to amending the provisions relating to the applicable events and circumstances in the foregoing clauses (a) through (d) as set forth herein, with the objective of having the respective positions of the Lenders and the Borrower after such change(s) conform as nearly as reasonably possible to their respective positions immediately prior to such change(s); provided that, until any such agreement is reached and to the extent reasonably practicable, the existing provisions, requirements and all related calculations and thresholds hereunder shall continue to be calculated as if no such change had occurred.

Upon the Borrower and the Agent agreeing on such amendments, the Borrower and the consenting Lenders shall enter into documentation to amend the provisions hereof to give effect to such agreement and to make all other adjustments incidental thereto. The parties hereto agree that such amendment shall require the consent of the Majority Lenders, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set out herein.

The Agent and its Affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate (or component thereof) used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Agent may select information sources or services in its discretion, acting reasonably, to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referred to in the definition thereof or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Notice by Borrower</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)The Borrower may, provided no Borrowing Base Shortfall, Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, request an extension of the then current Termination Date of the Credit Facilities (an "**Extension**") in respect of each Lender at any time from time-to-time, but not more than once in any calendar year, provided that following the granting of such Extension, the term to maturity of the Credit Facilities shall not exceed 2 years. Such request shall be made by the Borrower by delivering to the Agent an executed Request for Offer of Extension.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)Within 2 Banking Days after receipt thereof, the Agent shall notify the Lenders of such Request for Offer of Extension.

- 18 -

Amount, subject however to such conditions and amendments respecting the Credit Facilities, if any, as the Lenders agree and which are acceptable to the Borrower. Each Lender which grants an Extension is referred to herein as an "Agreeing Lender", and each Lender which elects not to grant an Extension, or fails to make such election within the period prescribed by Section [3.2(a)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) above, is referred to herein as a "Non-Agreeing Lender".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>No Extension</u>. No Extension shall occur unless those Lenders who wish to grant an Extension pursuant to a Request for Offer of Extension represent at least 66 2/3% of the aggregate Individual Commitment Amounts of all Lenders from whom an Extension has been requested. If no Extension occurs, the then current Termination Date of the Lenders who are not already Non-Agreeing Lenders will, subject to Section [3.4(e),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) continue for each such Lender and each such Lender's Individual Commitment Amount will remain available for Drawdown hereunder until the Termination Date; provided that the Borrower may again make a Request for Offer of Extension during the following calendar year in accordance with Section [3.2(a).](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Extension Notice</u>. Promptly after the Notification Date, the Agent will notify the Borrower of the decision of the applicable Lenders with respect to their Request for Offer of Extension (the "**Extension Notice**").

The Borrower will, within 20 days of receipt of the Extension Notice from the Agent (or such other period of time as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the Majority Lenders), notify the Agent as to its acceptance or rejection of the conditions or amendments, if any, stipulated by the Lenders therein. If the Borrower accepts all such conditions or amendments requested by the Agreeing Lenders as aforesaid, the Termination Date with respect to the Agreeing Lenders will be deemed to have been extended for the period of time set out in the Extension Notice, and, subject to Section [3.2(e),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) the Termination Date with respect to the Non-Agreeing Lenders shall not be extended. If the Borrower notifies the Agent that it does not accept such conditions or amendments or it fails to notify the Agent within the time provided above for acceptance, the Termination Date will not be extended as herein provided and will continue until the then current Termination Date with each Lender's Individual Commitment Amount remaining available for Drawdown until the then current Termination Date; provided that the Borrower may again make a Request for Offer of Extension during the following calendar year in accordance with Section [3.2(a).](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)the Borrower may replace each Non-Agreeing Lender with one or more financial institutions (which may be one or more of the Lenders) who purchase such Lender's entire Individual Commitment Amount in accordance with Section [15.2.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_37)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)<u>Different Termination Dates</u>. If, at any time, there are Syndicated Facility Lenders with different Termination Dates, all Syndicated Facility Lenders will share in Advances under the Syndicated Facility made hereunder based on their respective Rateable Portions thereof except to the extent the particular Advance under the Syndicated Facility requested has a Maturity Date after the Termination Date of a Syndicated Facility Lender, in which case only those Syndicated Facility Lenders with a Termination Date later than the Maturity Date of the requested Advance will be required to participate in providing such Advance and the Borrower may request a similar Advance, to the extent permitted hereunder, from the other Syndicated Facility Lenders with a Maturity Date occurring on or before the Termination Date of such Syndicated Facility Lenders. Each such determination by the Agent shall be prima facie, evidence of such Syndicated Facility Lender's Rateable Portion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Maturity Date**.

The Borrower will not be entitled to request an Advance from a Syndicated Facility Lender which has a Maturity Date after the Termination Date applicable to such Syndicated Facility Lender. The Borrower will not be entitled to request an Advance from the Operating Lender which has a Maturity Date after the Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Changes in Rates due to Change in Ratio**. For the purposes hereof, the effective date on which any change in interest rates or standby fees occurs will be the day that is 3 Banking Days after the Borrower delivers a Compliance Certificate as required hereunder which evidences a change in the Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio that would result in a change in the level set out in the Pricing Table; provided that if such Compliance Certificate is not so delivered when required, then the applicable interest rates and fees shall be those set forth in the highest level set forth in the Pricing Table effective as of the date such Compliance Certificate was otherwise due, such pricing to be effective until the first day following the date that such overdue Compliance Certificate is delivered (and notwithstanding the Default arising from such failure). Any increase or decrease in the interest rates on Benchmark Loans outstanding on the effective date of such change in the aforesaid rates and fees will apply proportionately to each such Benchmark Loan outstanding on the basis of the number of days remaining in the term to maturity thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)**Restatement of Ratio**. If the Borrower has delivered a Compliance Certificate that is subsequently found to be inaccurate in any way as a result of the Borrower's financial results having to be restated or if the Borrower's financial results were inaccurately reflected in the original financial results on which such Compliance Certificate was based or for any other reason and the result thereof is that the Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio that was originally reported was lower (and the corresponding Level in the Pricing Table was lower) than it otherwise would have been in the absence of such inaccuracy or prior to such restatement, then the Borrower will, immediately upon the correction of such inaccuracy or upon such restatement, pay to the Agent for the benefit of the applicable Lenders an amount equal to the interest, Letter of Credit Issuance Fees and standby fees that the Lenders should have received, but did not receive, over the applicable period had the Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio, and the underlying components thereof, been reported correctly in the first instance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)**Borrowing Base Shortfall or Event of Default**. Effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Borrowing Base Shortfall or an Event of Default (the "**Pricing Change Effective Date**"), the interest rates then applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, Benchmark Loans, U.S. Base Rate Loans and Letter of Credit Issuance Fees will each increase by 200 Basis Points per annum and such increase will remain in effect for as long as a Borrowing Base Shortfall or Event of Default subsists. An increase in interest rates and Letter of Credit Issuance Fees as aforesaid arising from a Borrowing Base Shortfall or an Event of Default applies to all outstanding Advances under the Credit Facilities and will on the Pricing Change Effective Date apply proportionately to each Benchmark Loan and Letter of Credit outstanding at such time on the basis of the number of days remaining in the term to maturity of each such Advance. The Borrower will pay to the Lenders any resulting increase in Letter of Credit Issuance Fees on or prior to the third Banking Day following the Pricing Change Effective Date. In the event that the Event of Default or Borrowing Base Shortfall no longer subsists, and the Borrower has paid in advance the increased Letter of Credit Issuance Fees for the term to maturity of a Letter of Credit, the Lenders will repay such amounts to the Borrower promptly after such Borrowing Base Shortfall or Event of Default no longer exists.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)**Agency Fee**. The Borrower will pay to the Agent as consideration for acting as administrative agent a fee as set forth in a fee letter between the Agent and the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)**Standby Fee**. The Borrower will, effective from and including the Amendment and Restatement Date, pay to the Agent for the benefit of the Lender or Lenders under each such Credit Facility, a standby fee in Canadian Dollars from time-to-time equal to the Basis Points set forth in the pricing table above, calculated on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as applicable, multiplied by (i) in respect of the Syndicated Facility, the Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount less the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of the Aggregate Principal Amount of the Syndicated Facility; and (ii) in respect of the Operating Facility, the Operating

Facility Commitment Amount less the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of the

Aggregate Principal Amount of the Operating Facility. The standby fee will be calculated daily and will be payable monthly in arrears on the first Banking Day of each calendar month for the previous calendar month. Standby fees will be distributed to each Lender on the unused portion of the Individual Commitment Amount of each Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)**Expenses**. The Borrower will pay or reimburse the Agent and the Lenders, as applicable, for their out-of-pocket expenses, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)reasonable legal fees and disbursements (on a solicitor and his own client full indemnity basis);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)the reasonable fees incurred in connection with the engagement of a financial advisor to the Agent and the Lenders after the occurrence of one or more of a Default or an Event of Default or Material Adverse Effect; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)all enforcement costs incurred by the Agent and the Lenders, as applicable,

in each case, incurred in connection with the establishment and initial syndication of the Credit Facilities and the negotiation, preparation, execution and maintenance of the Loan Documents and the enforcement of their rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.9Borrowing Base**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)**Borrowing Base**. The Borrowing Base is, as of the Amendment and Restatement Date, $100,000,000, provided that, in any event, each Credit Facility is made available by the applicable Lenders in accordance with their then-applicable Individual Commitment Amount, as set forth in [Schedule B](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_181) from time-to-time.

The Agent shall within 5 Banking Days of any Borrowing Base Determination advise the Borrower of the Borrowing Base value and, in the event that Borrowing Base Determination was not unanimously consented to by the Lenders and was determined to be the lowest Borrowing Base value proposed by a Lender or Lenders, the Agent shall advise the Borrower as to which Lender(s) had the lowest Borrowing Base (the "**Non-Conforming Borrowing Base Lender**"). The Borrowing Base shall be effective immediately upon notice thereof to the Borrower and any resulting adjustment of the Commitment Amount shall occur automatically. The Borrowing Base will remain in effect until the next Borrowing Base Determination is made as required or permitted herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)**Borrower May Request Redetermination**. The Borrower may (i) at any time in connection with an acquisition of assets where the lending value thereof is reasonably expected to exceed the Threshold Amount, or (ii) at any time but not more than once between scheduled Borrowing Base Determinations, request a redetermination of the Borrowing Base. Upon such request, the Borrowing Base will be redetermined as soon as reasonably practicable, provided that the Borrower has made available to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, the current information which, in the opinion of the Majority Lenders, acting reasonably, is required to perform such redetermination. The Borrowing Base will be adjusted effective on the date specified in the notice of same given by the Agent to the Borrower. In connection with any such redetermination, the Agent on behalf of the Lenders will be entitled to charge the Borrower a reasonable "work fee" to be agreed upon between the Borrower and the Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.10Swap Facilities**.

Subject to Sections [12.3(c),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) [12.3(d),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) [12.3(e)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) and [12.3(f),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) each Lender may enter into Swap Documents with a Loan Party; provided that all Swap Indebtedness ranks at all times *pari passu* with the Lender Secured Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.11Increase in Commitment**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result therefrom, at any time and from time to time, the Borrower may, by delivering an Increase Request to the Agent, request one or more increases to the amount of the Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount (each an "**Increase**").

54411012.5

- 37 -

Each Increase may not be less than Cdn. $1,000,000 and the Commitment Amount after any Increase may not exceed the then current Borrowing Base.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Increase Request will be delivered at least 20 Banking Days before the date of the requested Increase and will specify the requested principal amount of such Increase and the requested date of such Increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Each Lender may, at its option, provide its Rateable Portion of the requested Increase. Any Lender consenting to provide its Rateable Portion of the Increase shall so notify the Agent within 10 Banking Days of the Increase Request and, upon delivery of such consent to the Agent, will be deemed to have committed to increase its respective Individual Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount accordingly. Any Lender which does not advise the Borrower and the Agent, within 10 Banking Days of an Increase Request, that such Lender will provide its Rateable Portion of the requested Increase will be deemed to have declined to provide its Rateable Portion thereof. Not more than three Banking Days following (i) the last day for receipt by the Agent of such notices; or (ii) if all such Lenders have provided such notice, the day on which the last of such notices has been received by the Agent, the Agent will advise each Lender and the Borrower which Lenders have agreed to provide their Rateable Portion of the Increase and which Lenders have declined to provide their Rateable Portion of the Increase, and the amount of such Rateable Portion so agreed or declined by each such Lender (the "**Allocation Notice**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Each Lender agreeing to provide its Rateable Portion of the Increase may offer to acquire all or any portion of the requested Increase that has not yet been allocated to a Lender (the "**Unallocated Portion**") by giving written notice to the Agent of the portion of the Unallocated Portion which such Lender is prepared to acquire. Such notice will be given not more than five Banking Days following receipt by such Lender of the Allocation Notice. By delivering such notice, each such Lender will be deemed to have committed to increase its respective Individual Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount accordingly. If more than one such Lender gives notice to the Agent that it wishes to acquire all or a portion of the Unallocated Portion (each such Lender, an "**Additional Offer Lender**") and the amount of such Unallocated Portion which all such Additional Offer Lenders wish to acquire exceeds the amount of the Unallocated Portion, each such Additional Offer Lender will be deemed to have offered to acquire its Rateable Portion (determined on a pro rata basis by the Agent according to the respective amounts such Lenders have indicated that they wish to acquire of the Unallocated Portion, rounded to the nearest Cdn. $500,000). The Agent will give written notice to the Borrower, within two Banking Days following the expiry of the time for such Lenders to give notice of their intention to acquire pursuant to this Section [3.11(d),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) of any Lender agreeing to acquire all or a portion of the Unallocated Portion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)If the Lenders have not offered to acquire all of the Unallocated Portion, then the Borrower may arrange for one or more other financial institutions (each a "**Substitute Lender**") to offer to acquire the balance of the Unallocated Portion, subject to the following conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)each Substitute Lender being satisfactory to the Agent; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)each Substitute Lender having delivered to the Agent an instrument in writing agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Lender will have any obligation to participate in any requested Increase unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)Any increase in the Individual Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount pursuant to an Increase Request will be subject to satisfaction by the Borrower of the following conditions precedent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)delivery to the Agent of such officer's certificates, directors' resolutions or equivalents and legal opinions, and the making of such registrations or filings, as the Agent may reasonably require;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)payment by the Borrower to each Lender whose Individual Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount has increased pursuant to this Section [3.11](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) of a commitment fee on the amount of such increase at a rate to be negotiated by the Borrower and the Agent which is satisfactory to the Lenders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)satisfaction of such additional conditions as the Agent may reasonably require.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)If an Increase is to be made pursuant to this Section [3.11,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) the Agent will forthwith prepare and deliver to the Borrower and each Lender a new Schedule [A](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_58) setting forth the Individual Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount of the Lenders following the Increase. On the Banking Day following delivery of such new Schedule [A,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_58) upon confirmation of the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, such new Schedule [A](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_58) and the revised Individual Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount of the Lenders set forth therein will become effective.

**ARTICLE 4 SECURITY**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.1Security**.

The present and future Lender Secured Obligations of the Borrower and each other Loan Party to the Agent and the other Lender Secured Parties, howsoever arising or incurred, will be secured by the following, each in form satisfactory to the Agent acting reasonably (collectively, the "**Security**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)a demand debenture initially in the amount of Cdn. $400,000,000 (as such amount may be increased from time-to-time as agreed to by the Borrower and the Agent) from each Loan Party to be registered in all appropriate jurisdictions, as each such

54411012.5

- 40 -

debenture may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time-to-time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)a guarantee (or a joinder thereto) from each Loan Party other than the Borrower in favour of the Agent with respect to the Lender Secured Obligations of the other Loan Parties, provided the Borrower shall provide a guarantee as a condition to any other Loan Party incurring any Lender Secured Obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)in the event that any of the Permitted Junior Debt or Permitted Refinancing Debt is secured by a second Lien over any Loan Party's assets, property and undertaking, concurrently with the issuance of any such Permitted Junior Debt or Permitted Refinancing Debt, an Intercreditor Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)when requested by the Agent pursuant to Section [4.6,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) such documents and instruments providing a fixed Lien in accordance with Section [4.6;](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)such further guarantees, security agreements, deeds or other instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer, mortgage, pledge or charge as may be reasonably required by the Agent and the Lenders from time-to-time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Sharing of Security**.

The Borrower and the Lenders agree and acknowledge that the Security is being shared equally among the Lender Secured Parties to secure the Lender Secured Obligations on a *pari passu* basis and that the Agent will hold the Security for the benefit of the Lender Secured Parties hereunder. For purposes of the above sentence, "*pari passu* basis" means:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)with respect to the Lenders under a Credit Facility, the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of the Aggregate Principal Amount and other Obligations under such Credit Facility relative to the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of all Lender Secured Obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)with respect to the Swap Lenders, the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of the Permitted Swap Indebtedness relative to the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of all Lender Secured Obligations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)with respect to any Lender as it relates to the Cash Management Obligations, the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of the Cash Management Obligations owing to such Lender relative to the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of all Lender Secured Obligations.

If requested by the Lenders or any Swap Lender, the Lenders and the Swap Lenders will enter into such further agreements and assurances as may be reasonably requested to further evidence the provisions of this Section [4.2.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Exclusivity of Remedies**.

Nothing herein contained or in the Security now held or hereafter acquired by or granted to the Agent and the Lenders, nor any act or omission of the Agent and the Lenders with respect to any such Security, will in any way prejudice or affect the rights, remedies or powers of the Agent and the Lenders with respect to any other security at any time held by the Agent and the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.4Form of Security**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Security will be in such form or forms as will be required by the Agent, acting reasonably, and will be registered in such offices in Canada or any province thereof (or any other applicable jurisdiction) as the Agent, acting reasonably, may from time-to-time require to protect the Liens created thereby, provided that the Agent will not register, except pursuant to Section [4.6,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) against title to the P&NG Rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Should the Agent determine at any time and from time-to-time that the form and nature of the then existing Security is deficient in any way or does not fully provide the Lender Secured Parties with the Liens and priority to which each is entitled hereunder, the Borrower will forthwith execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Agent, at the Borrower's expense, such amendments to the Security or provide such new security as the Agent may reasonably request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower acknowledges that the Security has been prepared based on applicable Laws and the Borrower agrees that the Agent will have the right, acting reasonably, to require that the Security be amended or supplemented: (i) to reflect any changes in applicable Laws, whether arising as a result of statutory amendments, court decisions or otherwise; (ii) to facilitate the creation and registration of appropriate security in all appropriate jurisdictions including, if required, pursuant to Section [4.6,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) a fixed charge registration in respect thereof; or (iii) if a Loan Party amalgamates with any other Person or enters into any reorganization, in each case in order to confer upon the Agent the security intended to be created hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)The Borrower will, and will cause each other Loan Party to, do all things as may be reasonably requested by the Agent to protect and maintain the Security and the priority thereof in relation to other Persons (subject to Permitted Encumbrances).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.5After-Acquired Property**.

All property acquired by or on behalf of any Loan Party who has provided a debenture to the Agent pursuant to Section [4.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) or otherwise after the date of execution of the Security which forms part of the property of any Loan Party (hereafter collectively referred to as "**After-Acquired Property**"), will be subject to the Security without any further conveyance, mortgage, pledge, charge, assignment or other act on the part of the Parties. Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, the Borrower will, or will cause the applicable Loan Party to, from time-

54411012.5

In this connection, the Borrower will:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)provide the Agent with such information as is reasonably required by the Agent to identify the property to be charged pursuant to this Section [4.6;](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)provide the Agent with all corporate or partnership resolutions and other action, as reasonably required, for such Loan Party to grant the fixed Lien (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances which under applicable Law rank in priority thereto) in the property identified by the Agent to be so charged;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)provide the Agent with such security instruments and other documents which the Agent, acting reasonably, deems are necessary to give full force and effect to the provisions of this Section [4.6;](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)assist the Agent in the registration or recording of such agreements and instruments in such public registry offices in Canada or any province thereof (or any other applicable jurisdiction) as the Agent, acting reasonably, deems necessary to give full force and effect to the provisions of this Section [4.6;](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution and registration of all agreements, documents and instruments, including any amendments to the Security, made in connection with this Section [4.6.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.8Security for Swap Documents with Former Lenders**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)If a Lender ceases to be a Lender under this Agreement (a "**Former Lender**"), all Swap Indebtedness owing to such Former Lender and its Affiliates under Swap Documents entered into while such Former Lender was a Lender shall remain secured by the Security, subject to the terms hereof, to the extent that such Swap Indebtedness was secured by the Security prior to such Lender becoming a Former Lender and, subject to the following provisions of this Section [4.8.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) For certainty, any Swap Indebtedness under Hedging Agreements entered into with a Former Lender or an Affiliate thereof after the Former Lender has ceased to be a Lender shall not be secured by the Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, while any Obligations remain outstanding under any Credit Facility, no Former Lender or any Affiliate thereof shall have any right to cause or require the enforcement of the Security or any right to participate in any decisions relating to the Security, including any decisions relating to the enforcement or manner of enforcement of the Security or decisions relating to any amendment to, waiver under, release of or other dealing with all or any part of the Security; for certainty, the sole right of a Former Lender and its Affiliates with respect to the Security while any Obligations remain outstanding under the Credit Facilities is to share, on a *pari passu* basis, subject to Section [14.4,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_34) in any proceeds of realization and enforcement of the Security. If any amendment to this Section [4.8](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) or Section [13.3](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_34) is proposed that would adversely affect the rights of a Former Lender under this Agreement, then such amendment shall require the consent of each affected Former Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Subject to Section [4.7,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) if any Swap Document remains outstanding after the Obligations are otherwise fully paid and satisfied and the Credit Facilities are cancelled, the Agent shall be entitled to discharge the Security; provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)at the request of any Swap Lender, but subject to paragraph [(iv)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) below and the terms of the applicable Hedging Agreement, the Borrower agrees to enter into margin arrangements with such Swap Lender under which the Borrower will be required to provide such Swap Lender with a pledge of cash or marketable securities or other form of security acceptable to such Swap Lender, in form and in an aggregate amount as required by such Swap Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)at the request of any Swap Lender (which request may be made at any time after the Amendment and Restatement Date), but subject to paragraph [(iv)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) below and the terms of the applicable Hedging Agreement, the Borrower agrees to amend its ISDA Master Agreement with such Swap Lender to reflect the provisions of paragraph [(i)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)the provisions of paragraph [(i)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) and [(ii)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) above shall survive repayment of the Obligations and termination of the Credit Facilities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)any Swap Lender may elect to expressly override the provisions in paragraphs [(i)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) and [(ii)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) above in its ISDA Master Agreement (or in any

amendment thereto) by expressly contemplating the discharge of the Security, the Security ceasing to secure such agreement, and the consequences thereof; provided that no such election shall affect the rights of any other Swap Lender.

Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that all of the Security and all of the other Loan Documents and other documents entered into in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement (or any predecessor thereto), are and shall continue in full force and effect and are hereby acknowledged and confirmed and the rights and obligations of all parties thereunder will not be effected or prejudiced by the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in any manner, except as specifically provided herein.

A Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion when given by the Borrower will be irrevocable and will oblige the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders to take the action contemplated herein and therein on the date specified therein, provided that, any such notice will not be binding on a Lender who makes a determination under Section [10.2.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.4Rollover or Conversion of Accommodations**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Subject to Section [5.2,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) [Article 8](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) and Article 9, the Borrower will be entitled to effect a Rollover of one type of Accommodation into the same type of Accommodation under the same Credit Facility or to effect a Conversion of one type of Accommodation into another type of Accommodation, in each case under the same Credit Facility, in the same currency and otherwise on the terms herein provided.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Subject to Section [8.1(c),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) if the Borrower fails to give the Agent a duly completed Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion if and as required by Section [5.2,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) or if in giving such notice the Borrower fails to provide for the Rollover or Conversion of all of the Benchmark Loans then maturing, the Borrower will be deemed to have irrevocably elected to convert such maturing Benchmark Loans, or that part of such maturing Benchmark Loans which the Borrower has failed to provide for in such notice, as the case may be, into a Canadian Prime Rate Loan with respect to a CORRA Loan or a U.S. Base Rate Loan with respect to a SOFR Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.5Agent's Obligations**.

Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion with respect to a proposed Advance under the Syndicated Facility, the Agent will forthwith notify the applicable Lenders of the proposed date on which such Advance is to take place, of each applicable Lender's Rateable Portion of such Advance and of the account of the Agent to which each applicable Lender's Rateable Portion thereof is to be credited, if applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.6Lenders' Obligations**.

Each Lender will, prior to 12:00 noon (Montreal time) on the proposed date on which an Advance under the Syndicated Facility is to take place, credit the account of the Agent specified in the Agent's notice given pursuant to Section [5.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) with such Lender's Rateable Portion of such Advance, and upon receipt of the funds from the Lender, the Agent will make available to the Borrower the amount so credited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.7Failure of a Lender to Fund**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Unless the Agent has actual notice that a Lender has not made or will not make available to the Agent for value on a Drawdown Date the applicable amount required from such Lender pursuant to Section [5.6,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) the Agent shall be entitled to assume that such amount has been or will be received from such Lender when so due and the Agent may (but shall not be obliged to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount (except that no such amount shall be made available to the Borrower in the case of a deemed Advance). If such amount is not in fact received by the Agent from such Lender on such Drawdown Date and the Agent has made available a corresponding amount to the Borrower on such Drawdown Date as aforesaid (or is deemed to have made an Advance to the Borrower in such amount), such Lender shall pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the aggregate of the applicable amount required from such Lender pursuant to Section [5.6](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) plus an amount equal to the product of (i) the rate per annum applicable to overnight deposits made with the Agent for amounts approximately equal to the amount required from such Lender multiplied by (ii) the amount that should have been paid to the Agent by such Lender on such Drawdown Date and was not, multiplied by (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed from and including such Drawdown Date to but excluding the date on which the amount is received by the Agent from such Lender and the denominator of which is 365 in the case of all Advances. A certificate of the Agent containing details of the amount owing by a Lender under this Section [5.7(a)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) shall be binding and conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If any such amount is not in fact received by the Agent from such Lender on such Drawdown Date, the Agent shall be entitled to recover from the Borrower, on demand, the related amount made available by the Agent to the Borrower as aforesaid together with interest thereon at the applicable rate per annum payable by the Borrower hereunder. The failure of any Lender to make its Rateable Portion of the applicable Advance will not relieve any other Lender

54411012.5

------

- 51 -

of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Rateable Portion of such Advance on the date that such Advance is to take

54411012.5

------

- 52 -

place, but no Lender will be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to provide its Rateable Portion of any such Advance under the applicable Credit Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section [5.7(a),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) if any Lender fails to make available to the Agent its Rateable Portion of any Advance, which for greater certainty includes a deemed Advance hereunder (such Lender being herein called the "**Non-Paying Lender**"), the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such failure by the Non-Paying Lender to the Borrower (except where such failure relates to a deemed Advance) and to the other Lenders. The Agent shall then forthwith give notice to the other Lenders that any Lender may make available to the Agent all or any portion of the Non-Paying Lender's Rateable Portion of such Advance (but in no way shall any other Lender or the Agent be obliged to do so) in the place of the Non-Paying Lender. If more than one Lender gives notice that it is prepared to make funds available in the place of a Non-Paying Lender in such circumstances and the aggregate of the funds which such Lenders (herein collectively called the "**Contributing Lenders**" and individually called the "**Contributing Lender**") are prepared to make available exceeds the amount of the Advance which the Non- Paying Lender failed to make, then each Contributing Lender shall be deemed to have given notice that it is prepared to make available its Rateable Portion of such Advance based on the Contributing Lenders' relative commitments to advance in such circumstances. If any Contributing Lender makes funds available in the place of a Non-Paying Lender in such circumstances, then the Non-Paying Lender shall pay to any Contributing Lender making the funds available in its place, forthwith on demand, any amount advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at the rate applicable to such Advance from the date of advance to the date of payment, against payment by the Contributing Lender making the funds available of all interest received in respect of the Advance from the Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Agent its Rateable Portion of any Advance as required herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make available to the Agent its Rateable Portion of any Advance as required herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, either as a result of being a Non-Paying Lender or otherwise, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)the standby fees payable pursuant to Section [3.8(f)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Individual Commitment Amount of such Defaulting Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)a Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether, and the Individual Commitment Amount and the Rateable Portion of the Aggregate Principal Amount of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether, all Lenders or the Majority Lenders have

54411012.5

- 53 -

taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section [16.16),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) provided that any waiver, amendment or

54411012.5

------

- 54 -

modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)subject to Section [5.7(b),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) for the purposes of any Advance requested hereunder while there is a Defaulting Lender, each Lender's Rateable Portion thereof shall be calculated based on such Lender's Individual Commitment Amount relative to the Commitment Amount reduced by the Individual Commitment Amount of the Defaulting Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)the Agent may require such Defaulting Lender to pay to the Agent for deposit into an escrow account maintained by and in the name of the Agent an amount equal to such Defaulting Lenders' maximum contingent obligations hereunder to the Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)the Agent may withhold any payments owing to such Defaulting Lender for set-off against such Defaulting Lender's existing or reasonably foreseeable future obligations hereunder; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi)for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall retain and reserve its other rights and remedies respecting each Defaulting Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.8Exchange Rate Fluctuations**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Subject to Section [5.8(b),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) if as a result of currency fluctuation, the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of the Aggregate Principal Amount owing to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)the Lenders under the Credit Facilities exceeds the Commitment Amount;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)the Syndicated Facility Lenders under the Syndicated Facility exceeds the Syndicated Facility Commitment Amount; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)the Operating Lender under the Operating Facility exceeds the Operating Facility Commitment Amount,

(in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii), the "**Excess**"),

the Borrower will, within 3 Banking Days after a written request from the Agent, pay the applicable Excess to the Agent as a Principal Repayment for the benefit of the applicable Lenders to be shared on the basis of each applicable Lender's Rateable Portion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Notwithstanding Section [5.8(a)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) and Section [5.9,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) if the applicable Excess represents an amount which is less than 3% of the Commitment Amount under the applicable Credit Facility, then the Borrower will only be required to repay the applicable Excess on the earlier of the next Rollover Date or Conversion Date and 30 days after written request from the Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.9Excess Relating to Benchmark Loans and Letters of Credit**.

Subject to Section [5.8(b),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) if to pay an Excess it is necessary to repay an Advance made by way of Benchmark Loan or Letter of Credit prior to the Maturity Date thereof, the Borrower will not be required to repay such Advances until the Maturity Date applicable thereto, provided, however, that at the request of the Agent, the Borrower will forthwith pay the Excess to the Agent for deposit into a Cash Collateral Account maintained by and in the name of the Agent for the benefit of the applicable Lenders. The Excess will be held by the Agent for set-off against future Obligations owing by the Borrower to the applicable Lenders in respect of such Excess, if any, or shall make such other arrangements to affect the same as may be agreed to by the affected Lenders. The Agent shall have exclusive control over all amounts at any time on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account. The deposit of the Excess by the Borrower with the Agent as herein provided, will not operate as a repayment of the Aggregate Principal Amount until such time as the Excess is actually paid to the Lenders as a Principal Repayment. If at any time the Borrower is no longer required to pay the Excess on deposit with the Agent, the Agent shall promptly return the Excess to the Borrower.

**ARTICLE 6**

**DRAWDOWN UNDER THE CREDIT FACILITIES**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.1Conditions Precedent to Drawdowns**.

The Lenders' obligation to provide any Advance under the Credit Facilities will be subject to the following conditions precedent being met (unless waived in writing by all of the Lenders):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)other than in the case of overdraft borrowings under the Operating Facility, the appropriate Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion will have been delivered in accordance with the notice provisions provided in Section [5.2;](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing or, in the case of any Advances by way of a Drawdown, will result from such Drawdown;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.1Records**.

<br>**ARTICLE 7 CALCULATION OF INTEREST AND FEES**

The Agent will maintain records, in written or electronic form, evidencing all Advances and all other Obligations owing by the Borrower to the Agent and each Lender under this Agreement. The Agent will enter in such records details of all amounts from time-to-time owing, paid or prepaid by the Borrower to it hereunder. In addition, each Lender will maintain records, in written or electronic form, evidencing all Advances and other Obligations owing by the Borrower to such Lender. The information entered in such records will constitute prima facie evidence of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Agent and each Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of a conflict between the records of the Agent and a Lender maintained pursuant to this Section [7.1,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_25) the records of the Agent shall prevail, absent manifest error. The Operating Lender will maintain records, in written or electronic form, evidencing all Advances it has made in respect of the Operating Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Payment of Interest and Fees**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)**Interest**. Except as expressly stated otherwise herein, all Canadian Prime Rate Loans, U.S. Base Rate Loans and Benchmark Loans from time-to-time outstanding will bear interest, as well after as before maturity, default and judgment, with interest on overdue interest, at the applicable rates as prescribed under Section [3.8](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_16) or Section [17.10.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) Interest payable at a variable rate will be adjusted automatically without notice to the Borrower whenever there is a variation in such rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Calculation of Interest and Fees**. Interest on Canadian Prime Rate Loans and U.S. Base Rate Loans will accrue daily and be payable monthly in arrears on the first Banking Day of each month for the immediately preceding month, or, after notice to the Borrower, on such other Banking Day as is customary for the Agent having regard to its then existing practice. Interest on Canadian Prime Rate Loans, U.S. Base Rate Loans and Letter of Credit Issuance Fees will be calculated on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)***Interest Act* (Canada)**. Whenever a rate of interest or other rate *per annum* hereunder or under any other Loan Document is calculated 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 for purposes of the *Interest Act* (Canada) by multiplying such rate of interest by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)**Benchmark Loans**. Interest on Benchmark Loans will accrue daily and be payable at the end of each applicable Interest Period, provided that, where the Interest Period exceeds 3 months, interest will be calculated and payable every 3

54411012.5

------

- 58 -

months during the term of the Interest Period and on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. Interest on SOFR Loans will be calculated on the basis of the actual number

54411012.5

------

- 59 -

of days in each Interest Period in respect of SOFR Loans divided by 360. Interest on CORRA Loans will be calculated on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as applicable. For the purposes of the *Interest Act* (Canada) and any other applicable Laws, the annual rates of interest applicable to SOFR Loans are the rates as determined hereunder multiplied by the actual number of days in a period of one year commencing on the first day of the period for which such interest is payable and divided by 360.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Calculation and Payment of Letter of Credit Issuance Fees**.

Letter of Credit Issuance Fees will be calculated on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable, and for such period of time as the applicable Letter of Credit remains outstanding. The Letter of Credit Issuance Fees will be payable quarterly in arrears on the third Banking Day following the end of each Fiscal Quarter following the issuance of the relevant Letter of Credit and upon termination or cancellation of the Commitment Amount. In connection with the issuance or renewal of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower will pay to the Operating Lender in respect thereof an annual fee in an amount equal to the greater of 25 bps of the face amount thereof and

$250 or U.S. $250, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.4Debit Authorization**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower does hereby expressly and irrevocably authorize the Agent and the Operating Lender to effect all the necessary debits, deposits and credits in the Borrower's Accounts in order to accommodate the Lenders in making Advances, in order to accommodate the Borrower in making payments to the Lenders as required hereunder and to pay all amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents and the Cash Management Arrangements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Borrower authorizes the Operating Lender daily, or otherwise as and when determined by the Operating Lender from time-to-time, to ascertain the position or net position (as the case may be) in respect of all amounts contained in the Borrower's Account in respect of overdraft borrowings under the Operating Facility and the Aggregate Principal Amount owing under the Operating Facility, and that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)if such position or net position is a credit in favour of the Borrower, the Operating Lender may apply the amount of such credit or any part thereof as a repayment of the Aggregate Principal Amount of the Operating Facility, and the Operating Lender will debit the Borrower's Account with the amount of such repayment; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)if such position or net position is a debit in favour of the Operating Lender, the Operating Lender will make an overdraft borrowing under the Operating Facility of such amount as is required to place such account in such credit or net credit position as has been agreed between the Borrower

54411012.5

------

- 60 -

and the Operating Lender from time-to-time, and the Operating Lender may

54411012.5

------

- 61 -

increase the Aggregate Principal Amount under the Operating Facility and credit such account with such Advance, provided that at no time shall the Aggregate Principal Amount of the Operating Facility exceed the Operating Facility Commitment Amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.5Maximum Rate of Return**.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in no event will the aggregate "interest" (as defined in section 347 of the *Criminal Code* (Canada)) payable under this Agreement exceed the maximum effective annual rate of interest on the "credit advanced" (as defined in that section 347) permitted under that section and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement in respect of "interest" (as defined in that section 347) is determined to be contrary to the provisions of that section 347, such payment, collection or demand will be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the Borrower and the applicable Lenders and the amount of such payment or collection will be refunded to the Borrower. If any provision is determined to be contrary to the provisions of section 347 of the *Criminal Code* (Canada), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted *nunc pro tunc* to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by Law or so result in a receipt by a Lender of interest at a criminal rate. For purposes of this Agreement, the effective annual rate of interest will be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the term of the Credit Facilities on the basis of annual compounding of the lawfully permitted rate of interest and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Agent will be *prima facie* evidence, for the purposes of such determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.6 *Waiver of Judgment Interest Act* (Alberta)**.

To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the provisions of the Judgment *Interest Act*

(Alberta) will not apply to the Loan Documents and are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.7Deemed Reinvestment Not Applicable**.

For the purposes of the *Interest Act* (Canada), the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest will not apply to any interest calculation under the Loan Documents, and the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

**ARTICLE 8**

**GENERAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO BENCHMARK LOANS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.1General**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The aggregate amount of each Advance by way of a CORRA Loan will be in a principal amount of not less than Cdn. $1,000,000 and in multiples of Cdn.

$100,000 for any amounts in excess thereof and each CORRA Loan will have a term ending on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

- 63 -

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The aggregate amount of each Advance by way of a SOFR Loan will be in a principal amount of not less than U.S. $1,000,000 and in multiples of U.S. $100,000 for any amounts in excess thereof and each SOFR Loan will have a term ending on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If the Borrower elects to Drawdown by way of a Benchmark Loan to which an Interest Period is applicable, effect a Rollover of such a Benchmark Loan or a Conversion of an Accommodation into such a Benchmark Loan, the Borrower will specify in its Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion, as applicable, the Interest Period (which will begin and end on a Banking Day) applicable to such Benchmark Loan. If the Borrower fails, as required hereunder, to select an Interest Period for any proposed Benchmark Loan, then the applicable Interest Period will be approximately one month as determined by the Agent, provided that if no Interest Period is specified with respect to any Benchmark Loan, then it shall automatically be renewed for the same Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Any amount owing by the Borrower in respect of any Benchmark Loan which is not paid or subject to a Rollover or a Conversion at maturity in accordance with this Agreement will, as and from its Maturity Date, be deemed to be outstanding as a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or U.S. Base Rate Loan, based on the currency of such Benchmark Loan, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Early Termination of Interest Periods**.

If the early termination of any Benchmark Loan is required hereunder, the Borrower will pay to the Lenders all expenses and out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Lenders as a result of the early termination of such Benchmark Loan, including expenses and out-of-pocket costs incurred due to early redemption of offsetting deposits. If, in the sole discretion of a Lender, acting reasonably, any such early termination cannot be effected, such Benchmark Loan will not be terminated and the Borrower will continue to pay interest to the applicable Lenders, at the rate per annum applicable to such Benchmark Loan for the remainder of the applicable Interest Period. A written statement of the Agent as to the aggregate amount of such expenses and out of pocket costs will be prima facie evidence of the amount thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Inability to Determine Rates**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Subject to Section [8.4,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Benchmark Loan:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Benchmark applicable thereto cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)the Majority Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with the delivery by the Borrower of any Notice of Borrowing for a Benchmark Loan, or Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion of or into a

to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Benchmark Loan, and the Majority Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Agent,

the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Upon notice by the Agent to the Borrower as set forth in Section [8.3(a),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) any obligation of the Lenders to make Benchmark Loans, as applicable, and any right of the Borrower to Rollover such Benchmark Loans, as applicable, or to Convert any outstanding Advances to the such Benchmark Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Benchmark Loans, or the affected Interest Periods thereof) until the Agent (with respect to Section [8.3(a)(ii),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) at the instruction of the Majority Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion in respect of any applicable Benchmark Loan (to the extent of the affected Benchmark Loans, or the affected Interest Periods thereof) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion in respect of any applicable Benchmark Loan to a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion for, or into, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (in relation to a Benchmark Loan in Canadian Dollar) or a U.S. Base Rate Loan (in relation to a Benchmark Loan in U.S. Dollars), as applicable, in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected Benchmark Loans (to the extent affected) will be deemed to have been converted into a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (in relation to a Benchmark Loan in Canadian Dollar) or a U.S. Base Rate Loan (in relation to a Benchmark Loan in U.S. Dollars), as applicable, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Upon any such Conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section [8.2.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, but subject to Section [8.4(a)(ii),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (A) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(i) or (b)(i) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement" for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other Party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(ii), (b)(ii) or (c) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement" for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such

- 67 -

in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Banking Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other Party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)If the Benchmark Replacement is Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR or Daily Compounded CORRA, all interest payments on Benchmark Loans which bear interest with reference to such rate will be payable on a monthly basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)For certainty, no Hedging Agreement shall be deemed to be a "Loan Document" for purposes of this Section [8.4.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes**. In connection with the use or administration of any Benchmark or the use, administration, adoption or implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other Party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)**Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations**. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and, in the case of the Syndicated Facility, the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement or (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of such Benchmark Replacement. The Agent will notify the Borrower of (A) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section [8.4(d)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) and (B) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section [8.4,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other Party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section [8.4.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)**Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement), (i) if any then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Term CORRA Reference Rate or Term CORRA) and either (A) any tenor for

54411012.5

------

- 68 -

such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Agent, in its discretion, acting reasonably, or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such

54411012.5

------

- 69 -

Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings applicable to such Credit Facility at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)**Benchmark Unavailability Period**. Upon the Borrower's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) the Borrower may revoke its request for a Drawdown of, Conversion to or Rollover of a Benchmark Loan, to be made, Converted or Rolled over during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have Converted any such request into a request for a Drawdown of or Conversion to U.S. Base Rate Loans (in the case of Benchmark Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars) or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (in the case of Benchmark Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars) and (ii) any outstanding affected Benchmark Loans will be deemed to have been Converted to U.S. Base Rate Loans (in the case of Benchmark Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars) or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (in the case of Benchmark Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars) at the end of the applicable Interest Period. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of U.S. Base Rate or Canadian Prime Rate (as applicable) based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the U.S. Base Rate or the Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.5Illegality**.

If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Administrative Body has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Advances the interest for which is determined by reference to any Benchmark, or to determine or charge interest based upon any such Benchmark, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower (through the Agent) (such notice, an "**Illegality Notice**"), (a) any obligation of the Lenders to make Advances the interest for which is determined by reference to any Benchmark, and any right of the Borrower to Convert any existing Advances into Advances the interest for which is determined by reference to such Benchmark shall be suspended, and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining the relevant Advances is caused by reference to a specific component of such interest rate that is determined with reference to a Benchmark which has been determined to be unlawful, the interest rate on which each such Advance shall be determined by the Agent shall be such interest rate without reference

54411012.5

- 70 -

to the applicable Benchmark component thereof, in each case, until each affected Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

54411012.5

------

- 71 -

Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from any Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay or, if applicable, Convert all affected Advances of such Lender to Canadian Prime Rate Loans (with respect to Advances denominated in Canadian Dollars) or U.S. Base Rate Loans (with respect to Advances denominated in U.S. Dollars), as applicable (the interest rate on which shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Benchmark component of such interest rate which has been determined to be unlawful), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such Advance to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Advance, in each case, until the Agent is advised in writing by each affected Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the applicable Benchmark. Upon any such prepayment or Conversion following receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or Converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section [8.2.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28)

No Letter of Credit will be issued (or will be renewable at the option of the beneficiary thereunder) for a term in excess of one year (provided that a Letter of Credit may have a term in excess of one year or be subject to customary "evergreen" provisions, if the Operating Lender in respect thereof agrees), or will require payment in any currency other than Canadian Dollars or U.S. Dollars.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)Letters of Credit may be issued by the Operating Lender under the Operating Facility, provided that the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent of the Aggregate Principal Amount owing under the Operating Facility with respect to the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit under the Operating Facility shall at no time exceed Cdn. $10,000,000 (or the Canadian Dollar Exchange Equivalent thereof, if in U.S. Dollars) (or such greater amount up to the Operating Facility Commitment Amount, as the Operating Lender may agree);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A)the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Banking Day at least 3 Banking Days following the date of such request);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D)whether the Letter of Credit is a Financial LC or a Performance LC; provided that in the case of any dispute, the Operating Lender shall determine whether a Letter of Credit is a Financial LC or a Performance LC in accordance with its usual and customary practices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E)the face amount and currency thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F)the terms and conditions of the requested Letter of Credit and other relevant details; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)the Operating Lender shall have received a customary letter of credit indemnity and such other customary administrative documents as it shall have reasonably requested as a condition to the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)**Drawing under Letters of Credit**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)In the event of any request for a drawing under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Operating Lender in respect thereof upon demand by the Operating Lender, in the relevant currency, an amount, in same day funds, equal to the amount of such drawing (the "**LC Outstandings**") (provided that, for greater certainty, failure to reimburse the Operating Lender as provided in this sentence shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)If the Borrower does not pay to the Operating Lender sufficient funds to repay the LC Outstandings in full immediately on demand by the Operating Lender as a reimbursement to the Operating Lender for the payment made by it pursuant to such Letter of Credit, the Borrower will be deemed to have requested the Advance of a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or U.S. Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, depending on the currency of such Letter of Credit, in the amount of the LC Outstandings under the Operating Facility (in respect of Letters of Credit issued by the Operating

54411012.5

54411012.5

and the Operating Lender (in the case of Letters of Credit issued under the Operating Facility) or the Agent, as applicable, shall apply the proceeds thereof to the reimbursement of the Operating Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)If any Letter of Credit is outstanding on the date the Credit Agreement is terminated, or at any time that an Event of Default occurs or a domestic or foreign court issues any judgment or order restricting or prohibiting payment by the Operating Lender under such Letter of Credit or extending the liability of the Operating Lender to make payment under such Letter of Credit beyond the expiry date specified therein, the Borrower will forthwith upon demand by the Operating Lender pay to the Operating Lender funds in the applicable currency in the undrawn amount of the Letter of Credit and such funds will be held by the Operating Lender, in accordance with the Operating Lender's normal practices, for payment of any liability under such Letter of Credit so long as the Operating Lender has or may in any circumstances have any liability under such Letter of Credit (excluding inchoate contingent obligations), after which the balance of such funds shall be promptly paid to the Borrower. Any balance of such funds remaining at such time as the Operating Lender does not have and may never have any liability under such Letter of Credit (excluding inchoate contingent obligations) will nevertheless continue to be held by the Operating Lender, if and so long as any Default or Event of Default is continuing, as security for the remaining liabilities of the Borrower hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)The deposit of such funds by the Borrower with the Operating Lender described in Section [9.1(e)(i)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) will not operate as a repayment of the Aggregate Principal Amount until such time as such funds are actually paid to the relevant Operating Lender as a principal repayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)**Obligations Absolute**. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Operating Lender for drawings made under any Letter of Credit issued by it shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be fulfilled strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi)the fact that a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)As between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Operating Lender, on the other hand, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued hereunder by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit and, without limitation of the foregoing, the Operating Lender shall not be responsible for:

None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Operating Lender's rights or powers hereunder. No action taken or omitted by the Operating Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall put the Operating Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower (provided that the Operating Lender acts in accordance with the standards of reasonable care specified in the Uniform Customs and otherwise as may be required under ISP98 or UCP600, in each case as stated on its face to be applicable to the respective Letter of Credit).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)The Borrower agrees that neither the Operating Lender in respect of any Letter of Credit, nor its officers, directors, employees or agents will assume liability for, or be responsible for, and the Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each such Person from any losses or claims resulting from, the following: (A) the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit; (B) any acts or omissions of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit including the application of any payment made to such beneficiary; (C) the form, validity, sufficiency, correctness, genuineness or legal effect of any document or instrument relating to any Letter of Credit which on its face complies with requirements of the Letter of Credit, even if such document or instrument should in fact prove to be in any respect invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (D) the failure of any document or instrument to bear any reference or adequate reference to any Letter of Credit; (E) any failure to note the amount of any draft on any Letter of Credit or on any related document or instrument; (F) any failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to meet the obligations of such beneficiary to the Borrower or any other Person other than the Operating Lender; (G) any errors, inaccuracies, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, directions or correspondence by mail, facsimile or otherwise, whether or not they are in cipher; any inaccuracies in the translation of any messages, directions or correspondence or for errors in the interpretation of any technical terms; (H) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (I) acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex, facsimile or similar writing) appearing on its face to be in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit; or (J) any failure by the Operating Lender to make

imposed by any domestic or foreign court or Administrative Body or as a result of any other cause beyond the control of the Operating Lender or its officers, directors or employees or agents. This Section [9.1(g)(iii)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) will survive the termination of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall exonerate the Operating Lender for its gross negligence or wilful misconduct (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)**General**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)The Operating Lender may accept as complying with the terms of any Letter of Credit any document or instrument required by such Letter of Credit to be completed, signed, presented or delivered by or on behalf of any beneficiary thereunder which has been completed, signed, presented or delivered by a receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, assignee for the benefit of creditors, secured party or other like Person believed in good faith by the Operating Lender to be lawfully entitled to the property of such beneficiary, and the Operating Lender may make payments under such Letter of Credit to such Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)If the Borrower so requests in any applicable LC Application, any other Loan Party may be named as the applicant in the applicable Letter of Credit, provided that the Borrower shall be and remain fully liable for all fees and reimbursement obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)The Operating Lender shall maintain records showing the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit issued by it and outstanding hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.1Changes in Law**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)If, after the Amendment and Restatement Date, due to either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of any Law, whether having the force of law or not, resulting in the imposition or increase of reserves, deposits or similar requirements by any central bank or Administrative Body charged with the administration thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)imposition on any Lender to maintain any capital adequacy or additional capital requirements in respect of any Advances or commitments hereunder, or any other condition with respect to this Agreement; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Administrative Body which a Lender, acting reasonably, determines that it is required to comply with,

there will be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining an Accommodation, or there will be any reduction in the effective return to such Lender thereunder, then, subject to Section [10.1(b),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) the Borrower will, within 5 Banking Days after being notified by such Lender of such event, pay to such Lender, quarterly in arrears, that amount (the "**Additional Compensation**") which such Lender, acting reasonably, determines will compensate it, after taking into account all applicable Taxes, and all interest and other amounts received, for any such increased costs or reduced returns incurred or suffered by such Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)If Additional Compensation is payable pursuant to Section [10.1,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) the Borrower will have the option to convert the Accommodation to another type of Accommodation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in respect of which no further Additional Compensation will be payable or prepay any amount of the applicable Credit Facility owed to the Lender entitled to receive the Additional Compensation without obligation to make a corresponding prepayment to any other Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section [10.1,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and *Consumer Protection Act* and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines and directives concerning capital adequacy promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on

each case, be deemed a "change in Law" under Section [10.1(a)(i)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued but only to the extent (i) applicable to a Lender claiming Additional Compensation, (ii) materially different from that in effect on the Amendment and Restatement Date, and (iii) such New Rules have general application to substantially all banks and their affiliates within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Changes in Circumstances**.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Loan Documents contained, if on any date a Lender determines in good faith, which determination will be conclusive and binding on the Parties, and provided notice is given to the Agent and the other Lenders and to the Borrower that its ability to maintain, or continue to offer any Accommodation has become unlawful or impossible due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)any change in applicable Law, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by authorities having jurisdiction in the matter; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)the imposition of any condition, restriction or limitation upon such Lender which is outside of its control,

then in any such case, the Borrower will forthwith repay to such Lender all principal amounts affected thereby, together with all unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date of repayment and all other expenses incurred in connection with the termination of any such Accommodation, including any expense resulting from the early termination of any Interest Period relating thereto in accordance with Section [8.2,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) without any obligation to make a corresponding prepayment to any other Lender. The Borrower may utilize other forms of Accommodations not so affected in order to make any required repayment and after any such repayment, the Borrower may elect to re-borrow the amount repaid by way of some other Accommodation upon complying with applicable requirements thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Application of Sections [10.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) and [10.2](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28)**.

If a Lender exercises its discretion under either Section [10.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) or [10.2,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) then concurrently with a notice from such Lender to the Lenders and the Borrower requiring compliance with the applicable Section, such Lender will provide the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent and the other Lenders) with a certificate in reasonable detail outlining the particulars giving rise to such notice, confirming that its actions are consistent with actions concurrently taken by such Lender with respect to similar type provisions affecting other borrowers of such Lender in comparable circumstances and certifying (with reasonable supporting detail) the increased costs, if any, payable by the Borrower thereunder, which will be prima facie evidence thereof and binding on the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.4Limitations on Additional Compensation**.

Sections [10.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) and [10.2](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) will not apply to a Lender with respect to any event, circumstance or change of the nature and kind of which such Lender had actual knowledge on the Amendment

54411012.5

------

- 86 -

and Restatement Date. A Lender will not be entitled to Additional Compensation to the extent such

54411012.5

------

- 87 -

increase in costs or reduction in return is reflected in or recovered by an increase in the interest or other amounts payable hereunder (other than pursuant to Section [10.1)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) or relates to any period which is more than 90 days prior to such Lender becoming aware such Additional Compensation was owing or if such Lender is not generally collecting amounts which are the equivalent to Additional Compensation from other borrowers in similar circumstances to the Borrower where such Lender is contractually entitled to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.5Taxes**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)All payments to be made by any Loan Party pursuant to the Loan Documents are to be made without set-off, deduction, compensation or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for or withholding of any Taxes, except if required by applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Loan Party shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Administrative Body in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any other Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable Law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) such Withholding Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are required by applicable Law, (B) such Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Administrative Body, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or deductions have been made (including withholding or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section [10.5)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) each Lender (or, in the case of a payment to any Administrative Agent for its own account, such Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agent and each Lender for (a) the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes payable by the Agent or such Lender (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section [10.5(d)),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) and (b) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant taxing jurisdiction; provided the Agent or a Lender, as the case may be, provides the Borrower with a written statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts. Payment under this Section [10.5(d)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date such Lender or the Agent makes a written demand therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required pursuant to this Section [10.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) to pay any additional amount to, or to

54411012.5

- 88 -

indemnify, any Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, to the extent that such Lender or the Agent becomes subject to Taxes subsequent to the Amendment and Restatement Date (or,

54411012.5

------

- 89 -

if later, the date such Lender or the Agent becomes a party to this Agreement) solely as a result of a change in the place of organization or residence of such Lender or the Agent, a change in the lending office of such Lender, or a change in the principal office of such Lender or the Agent, in each case to a place outside of Canada and the United States, except to the extent: (i) that such Lender or the Agent was entitled, at the time of the change in place of organization, residence or the change in its lending office, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower pursuant to this Section [10.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) or (ii) to the extent that any such change is requested or required by the Borrower (and provided, that nothing in this Section [10.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) shall be construed as relieving the Borrower from any obligation to make such payments or indemnification in the event of a change in applicable Law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)If a Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments under the Loan Documents, it shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.5(f), no Lender or Administrative Agent shall be required to deliver any documentation that it is not legally eligible to deliver.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)If the Agent or a Lender determined, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section [10.5,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section [10.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest, provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Administrative Body) to the Agent or such Lender in the event the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Administrative Body.

applicable, and is duly registered to carry on business in each jurisdiction in which

54411012.5

------

- 91 -

the nature of any material business carried on by it or the character of any material property owned or leased by it makes such registration necessary, except for jurisdictions where the failure to be so registered would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and each Loan Party has full corporate or partnership power and capacity, as applicable, to enter into and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and to carry on its business as currently conducted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Authorization and Status of Agreements**. Each Loan Document to which the Borrower and any other Loan Party is a party delivered pursuant hereto has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and does not conflict with or contravene or constitute a default or create a Lien, other than a Lien which is a Permitted Encumbrance and other than a conflict, contravention, default or a Lien which in the case of clauses [(ii)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) or [(iii)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_28) below would not be reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, under:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)any applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)**Enforceability**. Each of the Loan Documents to which any Loan Party is a party constitutes a valid and binding obligation of any Loan Party, as applicable, and is enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar statutes affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)**Security**. The Security constitutes a valid first priority security interest and first priority floating charge on the assets of the Loan Parties, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances which under applicable Law rank in priority thereto.

There are no actions, suits or proceedings at Law or before or by any Administrative Body existing or pending, or to the Borrower's knowledge threatened, to which any Loan Party is, or to the Borrower's knowledge is threatened to be made, a party and the result of which would, if successful against it, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Loan Party is entitled to grant a Lien over its interests in the Borrowing Base Properties in favour of the Agent and the Lenders as provided in the Loan Documents without the need to obtain any consent of or release from any other Person which has not been obtained, other than Borrowing Base Properties which are jointly operated and subject to agreements entered into in the normal course of business. None of the Borrowing Base Properties are held in trust by any Loan Party for any other Person other than a Loan Party or the Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The obligations of each Lender under this Section [13.6](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_34) are unconditional, shall not be subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be performed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances including:

<br>**ARTICLE 15 ASSIGNMENT**

Except as expressly permitted under this [Article 15,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_37) this Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder will not be assignable, in whole or in part, by the Borrower without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Assignment by the Lenders**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Effect of Assignment**.

To the extent that any Lender sells or assigns any portion of its Individual Commitment Amount pursuant to Section [15.2](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_37) and such new Lender or new Lenders, as the case may be, has executed and delivered to the Borrower and the Agent an Assignment Agreement, such Lender will be relieved and forever discharged of any and all of its covenants and obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of that portion of its Individual Commitment Amount so sold or assigned from and after the date of such Assignment Agreement and the Borrower's recourse under the Loan Documents in respect of such portion so sold or assigned from and after the date of the Assignment Agreement for matters arising thereunder from and after the date of the Assignment Agreement will be to such new Lender or new Lenders only, as the case may be, and their successors and permitted assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.4Participations**.

Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more financial institutions or other Persons (each of such financial institutions and other Persons being herein called a "**Participant**") without the consent of, but upon prior notice to, the Borrower, participating interests in any of the Advances, commitments, or other interests of such Lender hereunder, provided, however, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)no participation contemplated in this Section [15.4](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) will relieve such Lender from its commitments or its other obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)such Lender will remain solely responsible for the performance of its commitments and such other obligations as if such participation had not taken place;

**ARTICLE 16 ADMINISTRATION OF THE CREDIT FACILITIES**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.1Authorization and Action**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)**Authorization and Action**. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to be its agent in its name and on its behalf and to exercise such rights or powers granted to the Agent or the Lenders under the Loan

54411012.5

------

- 140 -

Documents to the extent specifically provided therein and on the terms thereof, together with such powers and authority as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to

54411012.5

------

- 141 -

any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the Agent will not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but will be required to act or to refrain from acting (and will be fully indemnified and protected by the Lenders to the greatest extent permitted by Law in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, and such instructions will be binding upon all Lenders, provided however that the Agent will not be required to take any action which, in the opinion of the Agent, might expose the Agent to liability in such capacity, which could result in the Agent incurring any costs and expenses, or which is contrary to the spirit and intent of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Lenders' Determination**. Where the provisions of this Agreement provide that any waiver of or any amendment to any provision of the Loan Documents may be made or any action, consent or other determination in connection with the Loan Documents may be taken or given, with the consent or agreement of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders (in accordance with Section [16.16),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) then any such waiver, amendment, action, consent or determination so made, so taken or so given with the consent or agreement of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, will be binding on all of the Lenders and all of the Lenders will cooperate in all ways necessary or desirable to implement and effect such waiver, amendment, action, consent or determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)**Deemed Non-Consent**. If the Agent delivers a notice to a Lender requesting advice from such Lender as to whether it consents or objects to any matter in connection with the Loan Documents, then, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if such Lender does not deliver to the Agent its written consent or objection to such matter within 10 Banking Days of the delivery of such notice by the Agent to such Lender, such Lender will be deemed not to have consented thereto upon the expiry of such 10 Banking Day period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)**Release and Discharge of Security**. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agent to execute and deliver such releases and no-interest letters as may be required in connection with any disposition of assets by any Loan Party in respect of which the Agent has received an officer's certificate of the Borrower certifying that such disposition is permitted hereunder, together with any other information from the Borrower reasonably required by the Agent, if any, to satisfy itself that any such disposition is permitted hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)**Intercreditor Agreement**. The Lenders authorize the Agent to enter into and perform its obligations under any Intercreditor Agreement required hereunder from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Procedure for Making Advances**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)**Pro Rata Advances**. All Advances under a Credit Facility made by the Lenders will be made in accordance with each Participating Lender's Rateable Portion of such Advance. The Agent shall determine all adjustments to the amounts required

54411012.5

------

- 142 -

to be advanced by the Lenders to reflect as nearly as practicable the respective Rateable Portions of the Lenders under the Credit Facilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Instructions from Borrower**. Other than with respect to overdraft borrowings under the Operating Facility, the Lenders, through the Agent, will make Advances under a Credit Facility available to the Borrower as required hereunder by debiting the account of the Agent to which each Lender's Rateable Portion in respect of such Credit Facility of such Advances have been credited in accordance with Section [5.6](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_22) (or causing such account to be debited) and, in the absence of other arrangements agreed to by the Agent and the Borrower in writing, by transferring (or causing to be transferred) like funds in accordance with the instructions of the Borrower as set forth in the Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Rollover or Notice of Conversion, as the case may be, in respect of each Advance under a Credit Facility, provided that the obligation of the Agent hereunder will be limited to taking such steps as are in keeping with its normal banking practice and which are commercially reasonable in the circumstances to implement such instructions, and the Agent will not be liable for any damages, claims or costs which may be suffered by the Borrower or any of the Lenders and occasioned by the failure of such funds to reach their designated destination, unless such failure is due to the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Agent (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)**Assumption Respecting Availability**. Unless the Agent has been notified by a Lender within 1 Banking Day prior to an anticipated Advance under a Credit Facility that such Lender will not make available to the Agent its Rateable Portion of such Advance, the Agent may assume, without any enquiry required on its part, that such Lender has made or will make such portion of the Advance available to the Agent on the date such Advance is to take place, in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Lender will not have so made its Rateable Portion of an Advance under the applicable Credit Facility available to the Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Agent, forthwith on demand, such Lender's Rateable Portion of the Advance and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection therewith together with interest thereon (at the rate payable thereunder by the Borrower in respect of such Advance) for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, provided however, that if such Lender fails to so pay, the Borrower covenants and agrees that without prejudice to any rights the Borrower may have against such Lender, it will repay the amount of such Lender's Rateable Portion of the Advance (without duplication) to the Agent for the account of the Agent after receipt of the certificate referred to below and forthwith after demand therefor by the Agent. The amount payable to the Agent pursuant hereto will be as set forth in a certificate delivered by the Agent to such non-paying Lender and the Borrower (which certificate will contain reasonable details of how the amount payable is calculated) and will be conclusive and binding, for all purposes, in the

54411012.5

------

- 143 -

absence of manifest error. If such Lender makes the payment to the Agent as required herein, the amount so paid will constitute such

54411012.5

------

- 144 -

Lender's Rateable Portion of the Advance under the applicable Credit Facility for purposes of this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to make its Rateable Portion of the Advance will not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Rateable Portion of the Advance on the date that such Advance is to take place, but no Lender will be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to provide its Rateable Portion of any Advance under the applicable Credit Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Remittance of Payments**.

Forthwith after receipt of any payment by the Borrower hereunder, and subject to Section [13.3,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_34) the Agent, if and to the extent a Lender is entitled thereto, will remit to such Lender its Rateable Portion of such payment, provided that, if the Agent, on the assumption that it will receive on any particular date a payment of principal, interest or fees hereunder, remits to a Lender its Rateable Portion of such payment and the Borrower fails to make such payment, each such Lender agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such Lender's Rateable Portion of any such payment, together with all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection therewith and interest thereon at the rate and calculated in the manner customarily applicable to interbank payments for each day from the date such amount is remitted to such Lender. The exact amount of the repayment required to be made by a Lender pursuant hereto will be set forth in a certificate delivered by the Agent to such Lender, which certificate will be conclusive and binding for all purposes in the absence of manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.4Redistribution of Payment**.

Each Lender agrees that, subject to Section [13.3:](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_34)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)If it exercises any right of counter-claim, set off, bankers' lien or similar right with respect to any property of any Loan Party or if under applicable Law it receives a secured claim, the security for which is a debt owed by it to any Loan Party, it will apportion the amount thereof proportionately between:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)amounts outstanding at such time owed by the Loan Party to such Lender under this Agreement, which amounts will be applied in accordance with this Section [16.4;](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)amounts otherwise owed to it by a Loan Party, provided that any cash collateral account held by such Lender as collateral for a letter of credit or bankers' acceptance issued or accepted by such Lender on behalf of a Loan Party may be applied by such Lender to such amounts owed by such Loan Party to such Lender pursuant to such letter of credit or in respect of any such bankers' acceptance without apportionment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)If it receives, through the exercise of a right or the receipt of a secured claim described in Section [16.4(a)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) or otherwise, payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due to it hereunder which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the

54411012.5

------

- 145 -

aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due in respect of a Credit Facility (having regard to the respective proportionate amounts advanced as Advances by each of the Lenders

54411012.5

------

- 146 -

under such Credit Facility), the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment will purchase a participation (which will be deemed to have been done simultaneously with receipt of such payment) in that portion of the applicable Credit Facility of the other Lenders so that their respective receipts will be pro rata to their respective Rateable Portions, provided however that, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is otherwise recovered by it, such purchase will be rescinded and the purchase price for such participation will be returned to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Such Lender will exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section [16.4](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claims.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If it does any act or thing permitted by Sections [16.4(a)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) or [16.4(b),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) it will promptly provide full particulars thereof to the Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Except as permitted under Sections [16.4(a)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) or [16.4(b),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) no Lender will be entitled to exercise any right of counter-claim, set off, bankers' lien or similar right without the prior written consent of the other Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Notwithstanding anything else in this Section [16.4,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) any amounts which are lawfully received by any Swap Lender under a Swap Document prior to the delivery by the Agent of a declaration of all Obligations becoming due pursuant to Section [13.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_31) are not required to be shared pursuant to the provisions of this Section [16.4.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.5Duties and Obligations**.

The Agent or any of its directors, officers, agents or employees (and, for purposes hereof, the Agent will be deemed to be contracting as agent for and on behalf of such Persons) will not be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)may assume that there has been no assignment or transfer by the Lenders of their rights under the Loan Documents, unless and until the Agent receives a duly executed Assignment Agreement from such Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)may consult with counsel (including Borrower's Counsel), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and will not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with or reliance upon the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)will incur no liability under or in respect of the Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the apparently proper Person or by acting upon any

54411012.5

------

- 147 -

representation or warranty of any Loan Party made or deemed to be made hereunder;

54411012.5

------

- 148 -

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)may assume that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing unless it has actual knowledge to the contrary; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)may rely, as to any matter of fact which might reasonably be expected to be within the knowledge of any Person, upon a certificate signed by or on behalf of such Person.

Further, the Agent (i) does not make any warranty or representation to any Lender nor will it be responsible to any Lender for the accuracy or completeness of the data made available to any of the Lenders in connection with a Credit Facility, or for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in connection with a Credit Facility, (ii) will not have any duty to ascertain or to enquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Loan Documents on the part of any Loan Party or to inspect the property (including books and records) of any Loan Party, and (iii) will not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.6Prompt Notice to the Lenders**.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Agent agrees to provide to the Lenders, with copies where appropriate, all information, notices and reports required to be given to the Agent by the Borrower hereunder, promptly upon receipt of same, excepting therefrom information and notices relating solely to the role of the Agent hereunder. The Agent shall have no duty to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as the Agent hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.7Agent and Agent Authority**.

With respect to its Rateable Portion of a Credit Facility and the Advances made by it as a Lender thereunder, as applicable, the Agent will have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent. The Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, their respective shareholders or any Person owned or controlled by any of them and any Person which may do business with any of them, all as if the Agent was not serving as Agent, and without any duty or obligation to account therefor to the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.8Lenders' Credit Decisions**.

It is understood and agreed by each Lender that it has itself been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of and investigations into the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status and nature of the Loan Parties. Accordingly, each Lender confirms with the Agent that it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely, on the Agent

54411012.5

------

- 149 -

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) to check or inquire on its behalf into the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information provided by the Borrower or any other Person under or in connection with the Credit Facilities (whether or not such information has been or is hereafter distributed to such Lender by the Agent)

54411012.5

------

- 150 -

or (b) to assess or keep under review on its behalf the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status or nature of any Loan Party. Each Lender acknowledges that copies of the Loan Documents have been made available to it for review and each Lender acknowledges that it is satisfied with the form and substance of the Loan Documents. A Lender will not make any independent arrangement with any Loan Party for the satisfaction of any Obligations owing to it under the Loan Documents without the written consent of the other Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.9Indemnification**.

The Lenders hereby agree to indemnify the Agent and its directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) in accordance with their respective Rateable Portions, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent or its directors, officers, agents and employees in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in respect of the Loan Documents in its capacity as Agent, provided that no Lender will be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its Rateable Portion of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including legal fees, on a solicitor and his own client full indemnity basis) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preservation of any right of the Agent or the Lenders under, or the enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, the Loan Documents, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. This indemnity will survive the termination of the other provisions of this Agreement as a separate and continuing covenant of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees to promptly reimburse the Agent for any amount distributed by the Agent to such Lender as a payment on account of any Credit Facility if the Agent does not actually receive such payment from the Borrower on the date of said distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.10Successor Agent**.

The Agent may, as hereinafter provided, resign at any time by giving 30 days' notice (the "**Resignation Notice**") thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The remaining Lenders, with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, will forthwith upon receipt of the Resignation Notice unanimously appoint a successor administrative agent (the "**Successor Agent**") to assume the duties hereunder of the resigning Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as administrative agent hereunder by a Successor Agent, such Successor Agent will thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties as administrative agent under the Loan Documents of the resigning Agent. Upon such acceptance, the resigning Agent will be discharged from its further duties and obligations as agent under the Loan Documents, but any such resignation will not affect such resigning Agent's obligations hereunder as a Lender, including for its Rateable Portion of the Commitment Amount. After the resignation of the Agent as administrative agent hereunder, the provisions of this [Article 16](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) will continue to enure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken

by it while it was the administrative agent of the Lenders hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the remaining

54411012.5

------

- 152 -

Lenders fail to appoint a Successor Agent within 30 days of receipt of the Resignation Notice, the resigning Agent may and with the approval of the Borrower prior to an Event of Default, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, appoint a Successor Agent from among the Lenders, subject to such Lender accepting such appointment. The Agent may also be removed at any time by the Majority Lenders upon 30 days' notice to the Agent and the Borrower as long as the Majority Lenders, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint and obtain the acceptance of a successor within such 30 days, in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in this Section [16.10.](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.11Taking and Enforcement of Remedies**.

Except as otherwise provided herein, each Lender hereby acknowledges that, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, rights and remedies provided under the Loan Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders collectively and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights and remedies thereunder are to be exercised not severally but collectively through the Agent upon the decision of the Lenders (with the required majority or unanimity as herein provided), regardless of whether acceleration of Obligations hereunder was made, and accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it will not be entitled to take any action with respect to the Credit Facilities, including any acceleration of Obligations thereunder, but that any such action will be taken only by the Agent with the prior written direction of the Lenders (with the required majority or unanimity as herein provided). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of written instructions from the Lenders, and where in the sole opinion of the Agent the exigencies of the situation warrant such action, the Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the circumstances. Each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it has not heretofore and will not seek, take, accept or receive any security for any of the Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents and will not enter into any agreement with any of the Parties relating in any manner whatsoever to the Credit Facilities, unless all of the Lenders will at the same time obtain the benefit of any such security or agreement, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.12Reliance Upon Agent**.

The Borrower will be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other document or other advice, statement or instruction provided to it by the Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, and the Borrower will be entitled to deal with the Agent with respect to matters under the Loan Documents which the Agent is authorized hereunder to deal with, without any obligation whatsoever to satisfy itself as to the authority of the Agent to act on behalf of the Lenders and without any liability whatsoever to the Lenders for relying upon any certificate, notice or other document or other advice, statement or instruction provided to them by the Agent, notwithstanding any lack of authority of the Agent to provide the same.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.13Agent May Perform Covenants**.

If the Borrower fails to perform any covenant on its part herein contained, the Agent may give notice to the Borrower of such failure and if, within 10 days of such notice (or after the

54411012.5

------

- 153 -

expiry of such other time or cure period as may be required in this Agreement), such covenant remains

54411012.5

------

- 154 -

unperformed, the Agent on behalf of the Lenders may, in its sole discretion but need not, perform any such covenant capable of being performed by it and, if the covenant requires the payment or expenditure of money, the Agent may make such payment or expenditure and all sums so expended will be forthwith payable by the Borrower to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders and will bear interest at the interest rate applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans plus 2% per annum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.14No Liability of Agent**.

The Agent, in its capacity as agent of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, will have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower or the Lenders on account of the failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, or to any Lender on account of the failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.15Nature of Obligations under this Agreement**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Obligations Separate. The obligations of each Lender and the Agent under this Agreement are separate. The failure of any Lender to carry out its obligations hereunder will not relieve the other Lenders, the Agent or the Borrower of any of their respective obligations hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)No Liability for Failure by Other Lenders. Neither the Agent nor any Lender will be liable or otherwise responsible for the obligations of any other Lender hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.16Unanimity**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)**Unanimity**. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and without limiting in any way the context of any provision in this Agreement requiring the consent, approval, action or agreement of all Lenders, the following matters will require the approval, consent or agreement, as the context requires, of all Lenders:

The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Individual Commitment Amounts of any Lender and such Individual Commitment Amounts shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each Party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Agent has sold any Assigned Loan, and irrespective of whether the Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)The Parties agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent from (i) the Borrower or any other Loan Party or (ii) the proceeds of realization from the enforcement of any Security against or in respect of one or more of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, provided that, in each case, such funds were received by the Agent for the purposes of discharging such Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.19Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs**.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Documents or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "**QFC Credit Support**", and each such QFC, a "**Supported QFC**"), the Parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the *Federal Deposit Insurance Act* and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and *Consumer Protection Act* (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "**U**.**S**. **Special Resolution Regimes**") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "**Covered Party**") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)As used in this Section [16.19,](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_40) the following terms have the following meanings:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)"**BHC Act Affiliate"** of a party means an "affiliate" (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)"**Covered Entity**" means any of the following: (A) a "covered entity" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (B) a "covered bank" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (C) a "covered FSI" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Any notice or other communication given or made in accordance with this Section [17.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_43) will be deemed to have been received on the day of delivery if delivered as aforesaid or on the day of receipt of same by facsimile, if applicable, or other recorded means of electronic communication, as the case may be, provided such day is a Banking Day and that such notice is received prior to 1:00 p.m. local time and, if such day is not a Banking Day or if notice is received after 1:00 p.m. local time, on the first Banking Day thereafter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Each Party may change its address, email address and, if applicable, facsimile number for purposes of this Section [17.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_43) by notice given in the manner provided in this Section [17.1](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_43) to the other Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Any notice given under any of the Loan Documents to the Agent will be deemed to also be given to and received by the Agent in its capacity as Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Telephone Instructions**.

Any verbal instructions given by the Borrower in relation to this Agreement will be at the risk of the Borrower and neither the Agent nor the Lenders will have any liability for any error or omission in such verbal instructions or in the interpretation or execution thereof by the Agent or a Lender, as the case may be, provided that the Agent or Lender, as the case may be, acted without gross negligence in the circumstances. The Agent will notify the Borrower of any conflict or inconsistency between any written confirmation of such verbal instructions received from the Borrower and the said verbal advice as soon as practicable after the conflict or inconsistency becomes apparent to the Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3No Partnership, Joint Venture or Agency**.

Except as expressly provided for herein, the Parties agree that nothing contained in this Agreement nor the conduct of any Party will in any manner whatsoever constitute or be intended to constitute any Party as the agent or representative or fiduciary of any other Party nor constitute or be intended to constitute a partnership or joint venture among the Parties or any of them, but rather each Party will be separately responsible, liable and accountable for its own obligations under the Loan Documents, or any conduct arising therefrom and for all claims, demands, actions and causes of action arising therefrom. The Parties agree that no Party will have the authority or represent that it has, or hold itself out as having, the authority to act for or assume any obligation or responsibility on behalf of any other Party, save and except as may be expressly provided for in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.4Judgment Currency**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Deficiency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court or any other related purpose hereunder, it is necessary to convert an amount due hereunder in the currency in which it is due (the "**Original Currency**") into another currency (the "**Second Currency**"), the rate of exchange applicable will be the daily noon day rate quoted by the Bank of Canada on the relevant date to purchase in Calgary, Alberta the Original Currency with the Second Currency and includes

------

- 172 -

any premium and costs of exchange payable by the purchaser in connection with such purchase.

54411012.5

------

- 173 -

Each Party (the "**First Party**") agrees that its obligation in respect of any Original Currency due from it to another Party hereunder will, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in the Second Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Banking Day following the receipt of any sum so paid in the Second Currency, the other Parties may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase in the Calgary, Alberta foreign exchange market the Original Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so paid; and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the amount originally due in the Original Currency, the First Party agrees that the deficiency will be a separate and continuing obligation of it, independent from its obligations under this Agreement, and will constitute in favour of the other Parties a cause of action which will continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment, or order to the contrary, and the First Party agrees, notwithstanding any such payment or judgment, to indemnify the other Parties against any such loss or deficiency. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities it may incur or suffer under this Section [17.4(a)](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) will form part of the Obligations and will be secured by the Security unless earlier discharged as provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Excess. The Lenders through the Agent will pay to the Borrower the amount, if any, after netting out all amounts due by the Borrower under Section [17.4(a),](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) which the Lenders may realize in excess of what is owed to them by virtue of the conversion of the Original Currency into the Second Currency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.5Environmental Indemnity**.

The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each of the Agent and the Lenders, including their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the "**Indemnified Parties**"), for any costs, losses, damages, expenses, judgments, suits, claims, awards, fines, sanctions and liabilities whatsoever (including any reasonable costs or expenses of defending or denying the same and including the reasonable costs or expenses of preparing any environmental assessment report or other such reports) (in this Section [17.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) collectively a "**Claim**") suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Party, arising out of, or in respect of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)the Release of any Contaminant into the Environment from or into any property, owned, operated or controlled, directly or indirectly, by any Loan Party, or otherwise in which any Loan Party has an interest; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)the remedial action, if any, required to be taken by the Agent or the Lenders in respect of any such Release,

except in such cases where and to the extent that such Claims arise from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section [17.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) shall survive repayment of the Obligations of the Borrower and the termination of the Credit Agreement. Other than for costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties for investigating, defending or denying a

54411012.5

------

- 174 -

Claim or preparing any necessary environmental assessment report or other reports in connection with any Claim (the reasonable costs thereof to be paid forthwith by the Borrower on demand

54411012.5

------

- 175 -

therefor), the Indemnified Parties will not request indemnification from the Borrower unless an Indemnified Party is required by Law, based on the advice of such Indemnified Party's counsel, to honour a Claim or any part thereof. During the continuation of an Event of Default, the Indemnified Parties will be entitled, but not obligated, to negotiate any settlement of a Claim in consultation with the Borrower, and any such settlement will be binding on the Parties, provided that the Borrower will not be liable for any settlement of any action without its written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower, at its option by notice to the Lenders, may assume carriage at any time of any proceedings giving rise to a Claim, including choice of counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.6General Indemnity**.

In addition to, and without duplication of, any liability of the Borrower to the Lenders under any other provision hereof, the Borrower will and does hereby indemnify each Indemnified Party and hold each Indemnified Party harmless against any losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities (including reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable legal fees on a solicitor and his own client full indemnity basis) incurred by the same as a result of or in connection with:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-deployment in whole or in part of deposits or other funds required by any Lender to fund any Advance as a result of the Borrower's failure to complete a Drawdown or to make any payment, repayment or prepayment on the date required hereunder or specified by it in any notice given hereunder; (b) the Borrower's failure to pay any other amount, including any interest or fees, due hereunder on its due date after the expiration of any applicable grace or notice periods; (c) the prepayment of any outstanding Benchmark Loan before the Maturity Date thereof; (d) the Borrower's failure to give any notice required to be given by it to the Agent or the Lenders hereunder; (e) the failure of any Loan Party to make any other payment due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents; (f) any inaccuracy of the Loan Parties' representations and warranties contained in any Loan Document;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) any failure of any Loan Party to observe or fulfill its covenants under any Loan Document; (h) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; or (i) the use of the proceeds of any Credit Facility, provided that this Section [17.6](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) will not apply to any losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities that are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise by reason of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of any Indemnified Party (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The provisions of this Section [17.5](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) shall survive repayment of the Obligations of the Borrower and the termination of the Credit Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.7Further Assurances**.

The Borrower will, from time-to-time forthwith at the Agent's request and at the Borrower's own cost and expense (to the extent reasonable), do, make, execute and deliver, or cause to be done, made, executed and delivered, all such further documents, financing statements, financing change statements, assignments, acts, matters and things which may be reasonably required by the Agent with respect to the Credit Facilities, the Security or any part thereof and to give effect to any provision of the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.8Waiver of Law**.

To the extent legally permitted, the Borrower hereby irrevocably and absolutely waives the provisions of any applicable Law which may be inconsistent at any time with, or which may delay or limit in any way, the enforcement of the Loan Documents in accordance with their terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.9Attornment and Waiver of Jury Trial**. The Parties do hereby irrevocably:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)submit and attorn to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Alberta for all matters arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)to the extent legally permitted, waive any right they may have to, or to apply for, trial by jury in connection with any matter, action, proceeding, claim or counterclaim arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.10Interest on Payments in Arrears**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, interest will be paid by the Parties (other than a Lender Secured Party to a Loan Party) as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)on amounts for which any Party has actually incurred an out-of-pocket expense and for which another Party has an obligation under the Loan Documents to reimburse such amounts to the Party incurring the expenses, interest will be payable on such amount at the interest rate then applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans plus 2% per annum from and including the day on which the amount was incurred to but excluding the day on which the amount is reimbursed if, commencing on the date which is 3 Banking Days following a written demand for payment of the amount in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, such expense has not been paid; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)on amounts payable by one Party to another Party under the Loan Documents where such payment is in default but the non-payment of such amount has not required an actual out-of-pocket expense by the Party to whom such payment is due, at the interest rate then applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans plus 2% per annum from and including the day on which the payment was due to, but excluding the day on which the payment is made whether before or after judgment, but if such payment is a reimbursement by the Lenders to the Borrower for overpayment by it to the Lenders or is in respect of an inadvertent underpayment by the Agent, the Lenders or the Borrower to another Party (based on information provided by such other Party), such interest will only be calculated from

54411012.5

------

- 177 -

the date which is 3 Banking Days following a written demand for payment by the Party entitled to it;

54411012.5

------

- 178 -

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender Secured Party shall pay interest to a Loan Party on any amounts payable by a Lender Secured Party to a Loan Party under the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)All interest referred to in this Section [17.10](#i879628602deb48af966aa60e6a463478_46) will be simple interest calculated daily on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as applicable.

The undersigned, <u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</u>, being the <u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</u>, of the Borrower, hereby certifies in such capacity for and on behalf of the Borrower, and not in any personal capacity and without assuming any personal liability whatsoever, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.I have made or caused to be made due inquiries and review of all documents, correspondence and other material (the "**Title Enquiries**") relating to the hydrocarbons and lands or interests in lands (the "**Lands**") described in the reports of

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.To the best of my knowledge, information and belief, based on the due and reasonable enquiries, no Loan Party is in, or has received notice of, default of any obligation imposed on it by any farmout, operating agreement or any other contract or agreement in respect of the Lands which, in any case, would reasonably be expected to have a Material

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.To the best of my knowledge, information and belief, based on the due and reasonable enquiries, there are at present no outstanding unfulfilled obligations being enforced under any lease or contract pertaining to the Lands and any Loan Party's working, royalty and other interests in the Lands are not subject to any contractual obligations or conditions, except those which are not prohibited under the Credit Agreement or which are accounted for in the Engineering Report.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.No Loan Party has assigned its share of production proceeds or other moneys due to it in respect of its working, royalty or other interests in the Lands to any party other than the Agent, for its own benefit and on behalf of the Lenders, except to the extent not prohibited under the Credit Agreement or which are accounted for in the Engineering Report.
