 such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency

**1.15** **Accounting Terms – GAAP; Calculations, Computations, Changes in Accounting Policies**

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time. The Borrower may adopt new accounting policies from time to time (including with respect to IFRS), if such adoption is compelled by accounting or regulatory bodies having jurisdiction or at its own discretion, and if these accounting changes may result in a material change in the calculation of the financial covenants or financial covenant thresholds or terms used in this agreement or any other Credit Document, then the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to enter into good faith negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this agreement or such other Credit Document, as applicable, so as to equitably reflect such accounting changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the Borrower's or any one of its Subsidiary's financial condition, financial covenants, financial covenant thresholds or terms used in this agreement or any other Credit Document shall be the same after such accounting changes as if such accounting changes had not been made; provided, however, that the agreement of the Majority Lenders to any required amendments of such provisions shall be sufficient to bind all Lenders. If the Borrower and the Majority Lenders cannot agree upon the required amendments, then all calculations of financial covenants, financial covenant thresholds or terms used in this agreement or any other Credit Document shall be prepared and delivered without reflecting the accounting policy change.

**1.16** **Paramountcy**

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this agreement and the provisions of the other Finance Documents, the provisions of this agreement shall prevail and be paramount; <u>provided that</u> the provisions of any Risk Management Agreement shall prevail and be paramount with respect to the subject matter of Section 8.7. If any covenant, representation, warranty or event of default contained in any Finance Document is in conflict with or is inconsistent with a provision of this agreement relating to the same specific matter, such covenant, representation, warranty or event of default shall be deemed to be amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is not in conflict with or inconsistent with the provision of this agreement relating to the same specific matter.

**1.17** **Permitted Liens**

**1.18** **Ordinary Course of Business**

Any transaction herein qualified as to a Person's "ordinary course of business" means the ordinary course of such Person's business, as conducted by any such Person in accordance with past practice and undertaken by such Person for commercial reasons and not for purposes of evading any obligation or restriction contained in any Credit Document.

**1.19** **Electronic Execution**

The words "execution", "signed", "signature" and words of like import on any Credit Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including Parts 2 and 3 of the *Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act* (Canada) and other similar federal or provincial laws based on the *Uniform Electronic Commerce Act* of the Uniform Law Conference of Canada or its *Uniform Electronic Evidence Act* as the case may be.

**1.20** **Amendment and Restatement**

This agreement is an amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement and not a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement. This agreement reflects amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement and has been restated solely for the purposes of reflecting amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement which the Lenders, the Borrower and the other parties thereto have agreed upon. For greater certainty, except as amended hereby, all obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement continue as obligations under this agreement. All references to the "Credit Agreement" or similar references contained in the documents delivered prior to the effectiveness of this agreement in connection with or under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be references to the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated pursuant to this agreement without further amendment to those documents.

**ARTICLE 2** 

**CREDIT FACILITY**

**2.1** **Establishment of Credit Facility**

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lenders hereby establish in favour of the Borrower a revolving credit facility (the "**Credit Facility**") in the amount of the Credit Limit. Within such limit and subject to the terms and conditions set out herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow Loans.

**2.2** **Lenders' Commitments**

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the relevant Lenders severally agree to extend credit to the Borrower under the Credit Facility from time to time provided that the aggregate amount of credit extended by each Lender under the Credit Facility shall not at any time exceed the Individual Commitment of such Lender and further provided that the aggregate amount of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility shall not at any time exceed the amount of the Credit Limit. All credit requested under the Credit Facility shall be made available to the Borrower contemporaneously by all of the Lenders. Each Lender shall provide to the Borrower its Pro Rata Share of each credit under the Credit Facility, whether such credit is extended by way of drawdown, rollover or conversion. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to provide its Pro Rata Share of any credit under the Credit Facility nor shall the Individual Commitment of any Lender be increased as a result of any such default of another Lender in extending credit under the Credit Facility. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Borrower its Pro Rata Share of any credit under the Credit Facility shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Borrower its Pro Rata Share of such credit under the Credit Facility.

**2.3** **Reduction of Credit Limit**

The Borrower may, from time to time and at any time, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent, permanently reduce the Credit Limit to the extent it is not being utilized at the time such notice is given, provided that such reduction shall not become effective until three Banking Days after such notice has been given. The amount of the Credit Limit (i) will not be reduced by any prepayment or repayment under the Credit Facility pursuant to Sections 9.2 and/or 9.3, (ii) will be permanently reduced by any prepayment or repayment under the Credit Facility pursuant to Section 9.1, and (iii) will be reduced to zero on the Maturity Date. Upon any reduction of the Credit Limit, the Individual Commitment of each Lender with respect to the Credit Limit shall thereupon be reduced by an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such reduction of the Credit Limit, and any reinstatement of the Credit Limit shall result in a reinstatement of such amount of each Individual Commitment.

**2.4** **Accordion Feature**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to Section 2.4(b), the Borrower
 may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (an "**Accordion Notice** "), from
 time to time request that the amount of the Individual Commitments with respect to the Credit
 Facility be increased by an aggregate amount of up to $200,000,000 (in the aggregate for
 all Accordion Notices). For certainty, the aggregate Individual Commitments under the Credit
 Facility shall not exceed at any particular time $700,000,000 and each Lender shall, at its
 sole option, be entitled to share in the increase in the Credit Facility in accordance with
 their respective Pro Rata Shares. Within fifteen (15) Banking Days of the receipt by the
 Administrative Agent of an Accordion Notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender
 of the Accordion Notice and each Lender shall, within such fifteen (15) Banking Days period,
 advise the Administrative Agent as to whether or not it intends to participate in such increase
 of the Credit Facility. If such advice is not received from a Lender within such fifteen
 (15) Banking Day period, then such Lender will be deemed not to have agreed to participate
 in the increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Accordion Notice shall specify (i) the
 requested amount of the proposed Credit Facility increase (which amount shall be in compliance
 with Section 2.4(a)) and (ii) the effective date of the proposed increase (the
 "**Accordion Effective Date** "). If all Lenders agree to participate in the
 increase in the Credit Facility, the Individual Commitment of each Lender shall be increased
 in accordance with their Pro Rata Share. If the full amount of the proposed Accordion increase
 is not completely acquired by Accordion Lenders that are already Lenders, the Borrower may
 propose other Eligible Assignees to provide new Individual Commitments for all or a portion
 of the proposed Accordion increase not acquired by existing Lenders, and shall notify the
 Administrative Agent of the identity of any such Eligible Assignees and their respective
 new Individual Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Accordion Lender that is an existing
 Lender shall send a confirming letter to the Administrative Agent confirming that it has
 agreed to an Individual Commitment with respect to the Credit Facility and setting out the
 amount of that commitment. In respect of each Accordion Lender that is not an existing Lender,
 the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required (such consent not to be unreasonably
 withheld, delayed or conditioned), and each such Accordion Lender shall be required to have
 accepted a minimum Individual Commitment of $25,000,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In respect of each Accordion Lender that
 is an existing Lender, the effectiveness of each such Accordion Lender's increased
 Individual Commitment with respect to the Credit Facility shall, subject to Section 2.4(g),
 take place with effect from the second Banking Day following the date of the delivery of
 such Lender's advice, as provided in clause (a) above to the Administrative
 Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the effectiveness
 of such increases.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In respect of each Accordion Lender that
 is not an existing Lender, upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Accordion Agreement
 executed by the Borrower and an Accordion Lender that is so acceptable to the Administrative
 Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver such Accordion Agreement
 whereupon this agreement and each other Finance Document shall, subject to Section 2.4(g),
 henceforth be read and construed as if such Accordion Lender were party to this agreement
 as a Lender having all of the rights and obligations of a Lender expressed herein with respect
 to the Individual Commitment with respect to the Credit Facility that the Accordion Lender
 has agreed to accept and all references to any Lenders in any Finance Document shall (to
 the extent the context so admits) be construed accordingly. Schedule A hereto shall be thereupon
 be amended to add the Individual Commitment of such Accordion Lender, and the Administrative
 Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the effectiveness of such Individual Commitments.
 Each Lender irrevocably appoints, authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent, as its
 attorney and agent, with full power of substitution and delegation, to complete and execute
 on its behalf each Accordion Agreement relating to each Accordion Lender. Each Lender agrees
 that it will be bound by the terms of each such Accordion Agreement so completed and executed
 by the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Administrative Agent shall promptly
 notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of the increased Individual Commitments
 arising pursuant to this Section 2.4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No increase in or establishment of, any
 Individual Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be permitted if, at such time,
 a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would arise as a result of
 any such increase or establishment and provided further that no increase in or establishment
 of, any Individual Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.4 in excess of $100,000,000
 shall be permitted unless prior to or concurrent with any such increase or establishment
 in excess of $100,000,000 the Borrower (A) shall cause TF Bermuda to execute and deliver
 to the Administrative Agent (i) a Third Ranking Debenture governed by English law and
 (ii) a Third Ranking Supplemental Fixed and Floating Charge Agreement governed by the
 laws of Bermuda, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and
 otherwise substantially similar to the Security Documents referenced at Schedule I, paragraphs
 2(b) and 2(e)) and (B) the Administrative Agent shall have received customary legal
 opinions in respect of the foregoing documents from TF Bermuda's English and Bermuda
 counsel, respectively, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
 and otherwise substantially similar to the legal opinions previously delivered to the Administrative
 Agent in respect of the Security Documents referenced at Schedule I, paragraphs 2(b) and
 2(e)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) On each Accordion Effective Date, the
 Administrative Agent shall determine the amount of adjusting payments that may need to be
 made amongst the Lenders to ensure that their respective shares in outstanding Accommodations
 under the Credit Facility equal their respective Pro Rata Shares based upon their respective Individual
 Commitments. Each Accordion Lender shall advance to the Administrative
 Agent the amount of any such adjusting payment so required of it and the Administrative Agent
 shall, upon receipt, advance to each other Lender the amount of the corresponding adjusting
 payment required to be paid to it as determined
 above. The Borrower shall be obliged to repay outstanding Accommodations under
 the Credit Facility amongst the Lenders as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.4. Adjusting
 payments in respect of Term Benchmark Loans shall not take place until the expiry of their
 current tenors.

**2.5** **Termination of Credit Facility**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Credit Facility shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the termination of the Credit Facility in accordance with Section 13.1;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the date on which the Credit Limit has
 been permanently reduced to zero pursuant to Section 2.3; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Maturity Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon the termination of the Credit Facility,
 the right of the Borrower to obtain any credit under the Credit Facility and all of the obligations
 of the Lenders to extend credit under the Credit Facility shall automatically terminate.

**2.6** **Credit Restrictions**

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the aggregate amount of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility shall not at any time exceed the Credit Limit. The Borrower shall not drawdown credit under the Credit Facility solely for the purpose of accumulating cash in deposit or investment accounts outside the ordinary course of business.

**2.7** **Extensions**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time prior to the Maturity Date
 (the unextended Maturity Date being referred to in this Section 2.7 as, an "**Extension Date**") but not more than once per calendar year, the Borrower may, subject to satisfaction
 of the conditions precedent for an Accommodation set forth in Section 12.2, deliver
 to the Administrative Agent a request for an extension of the Extension Date for a period
 of up to 4 years after the then applicable Extension Date (the "**Extension Request** ");
 provided that the Borrower may withdraw an Extension Request, even if the Majority Lenders
 have already consented to such Extension Request, by notice in writing delivered to the Administrative
 Agent not later than the close of business on the third Banking Day prior to the Extension
 Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of its receipt of any
 Extension Request, with particulars thereof.

Extension Request, with particulars thereof. Within 30 days after the Administrative Agent has notified a Lender of its receipt of an Extension Request, such Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to extend or not extend the Extension Date as requested in such Extension Request (which election to extend or not extend shall be made by each such Lender in its sole and absolute discretion). Any failure by any Lender to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to extend or not extend the Extension Date as requested in such Extension Request shall be deemed to be a refusal to extend the Extension Date. Unless the Extension Request has been withdrawn by the Borrower in accordance with the proviso above, if the Majority Lenders approve in writing the extension of the Extension Date requested in such Extension Request, the Extension Date shall automatically and without any further action by any Person be extended for the period specified in such Extension Request; provided that if an Extension Request has been made, but there are one or more Lenders which do not consent in writing to the Extension Request within 35 days after receipt of the notice of the Extension Request from the Administrative Agent (a "**Non-Extending Lender**"), then the Borrower shall be entitled to choose one of the following options, and the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of its choice not later than 10 days prior to the Extension Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Loans of any Non-Extending Lender shall
 be repaid on the applicable Maturity Date (without giving effect to the extension requested
 in such Extension Request, with respect to the Non-Extending Lender only);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at the sole expense of the Borrower, upon
 notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, the Individual Commitment of any Non-Extending
 Lender shall be assigned to (and assumed by) an Eligible Assignee upon payment by the assignee
 to the Non-Extending Lender of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans,
 accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to the Non-Extending
 Lender hereunder, provided that (i) such assignment does not conflict with any Applicable
 Law, and (ii) any assignee which becomes a Lender as a result of such an assignment
 shall be deemed to have consented to the applicable Extension Request and, therefore, shall
 not be a Non-Extending Lender; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Borrower may withdraw the applicable
 Extension Request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Non-Extending Lenders.* Any Non-Extending
 Lender shall provide to the Borrower its full co-operation in facilitating the assignment
 of the applicable Individual Commitment of such Non-Extending Lender to an assignee permitted
 hereunder (which assignee may be another Lender, if such assignee Lender accepts such assignment)
 identified by the Borrower that is ready, willing and able to be an assignee with respect
 thereto. If an Extension Request has been made and if, within 35 days after receipt by the
 Lenders of the notice of the Extension Request from the Administrative Agent, the Majority
 Lenders have not approved in writing the extension of the Extension Date requested in an
 Extension Request, the Extension Date shall not be extended pursuant to such Extension
 Request. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of (a) any
 extension of the Extension Date pursuant to Section 2.7, and (b) of any Lender
 which becomes a Non-Extending Lender.

**ARTICLE 3** 

**GENERAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO CREDITS**

**3.1** **Types of Credit Availments**

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Borrower may obtain credit under the
 Credit Facility from the Lenders through the Branch of Account by way of Loans; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any extension of credit hereunder by way
 of drawdown of (x) a Base Rate Loan shall be in the amount of at least $1,000,000 or
 (y) a Term Benchmark Loan shall be in the amount of at least $3,000,000 and amounts
 in excess thereof shall, in each case, be in integral multiples of $100,000.

**3.2** **Funding of Loans**

Each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of each Loan prior to 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the date of the extension of credit. The Administrative Agent shall, upon fulfilment by the Borrower of the terms and conditions set forth in Article 12 and unless otherwise irrevocably authorized and directed in the Drawdown Notice, make such funds available to the Borrower on the date of the extension of credit by crediting the relevant Designated Account (or causing such account to be credited). Unless the Administrative Agent has been notified by a Lender at least one Banking Day prior to the date of the extension of credit that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion of the Loan available to the Administrative Agent on the date of the extension of credit in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent has made such assumption, to the extent such Lender shall not have so made its Pro Rata Share of the Loan available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loan and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding such obligation, if such Lender fails so to pay, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any rights that the Borrower might have against such Lender, repay such amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent. The amount payable by each Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto shall be set forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to such Lender and the Borrower (which certificate shall contain reasonable details of how the amount payable is calculated) and shall constitute *prima facie* evidence of such amount payable. If such Lender makes the payment to the Administrative Agent required herein, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loan for purposes of this agreement and shall entitle the Lender to all rights and remedies against the Borrower in respect of such Loan.

**3.3** **Failure of Lender to Fund Loan**

If any Lender (a "**Non-Funding Lender**") fails to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan under the Credit Facility as required and the Administrative Agent has not funded pursuant to Section 3.2, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such failure by such Non-Funding Lender to the Borrower and the other Lenders and such notice shall state that any Lender may make available to the Administrative Agent all or any portion of the Non-Funding Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Loan (but in no way shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so) in the place and stead of the Non-Funding Lender. If more than one Lender gives notice that it is prepared to make funds available in the place and stead of a Non-Funding 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-Funding Lender failed to make, then each Contributing Lender shall be deemed to have given notice that it is prepared to make available its *pro rata* share 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 and stead of a Non-Funding Lender in such circumstances, then the Non-Funding Lender shall pay to any Contributing Lender making the funds available in its place and stead, forthwith on demand, any amount advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day 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 Loan from the Borrower. In addition to interest as aforesaid, the Borrower shall pay all amounts owing by the Borrower to the Non-Funding Lender hereunder (with respect to the amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Non-Funding Lender) to the Contributing Lenders until such time as the Non-Funding Lender pays to the Administrative Agent for the Contributing Lenders all amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Non-Funding Lender.

**3.4** **Timing of Credit Availments**

No Term Benchmark Loan may have a maturity date later than the Maturity Date.

**3.5** **Inability to Fund U.S. Dollar Advances in Canada**

If a Lender determines in good faith, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting financial markets inside or outside Canada, deposits of United States dollars are unavailable to such Lender in Canada, or (ii) any change to present law or any future law, regulation, order, treaty or official directive (whether or not having the force of law but, if not having the force of law, one with which a responsible Canadian chartered bank would comply) or any change therein or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body has made it unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain or give effect to its obligations in respect of United States dollar advances in Canada as contemplated herein, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the right of the Borrower to obtain any
 affected Base Rate Loan or Term Benchmark Loan from such Lender shall be suspended until
 such Lender determines that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and
 such Lender so notifies the Borrower;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if any affected Base Rate Loan or Term
 Benchmark Loan is not yet outstanding, any applicable Drawdown Notice shall be cancelled
 and the advance requested therein shall not be made;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) if any Term Benchmark Loan is already
 outstanding under the Credit Facility at any time when the right of the Borrower to obtain
 credit by way of a Term Benchmark Loan is suspended, it shall, subject to the Borrower having
 the right to obtain credit by way of a Base Rate Loan at such time under the Credit Facility,
 be converted on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (or on such earlier
 date as may be required to comply with any Applicable Law) to a Base Rate Loan in the principal
 amount equal to the principal amount of the Term Benchmark Loan or, if the Borrower do not
 have the right to obtain credit by way of a Base Rate Loan at such time under the Credit
 Facility, such Term Benchmark Loan shall be converted on the last day of the Interest Period
 applicable thereto (or on such earlier date as may be required to comply with any Applicable
 Law) to a loan in such other currency as may be mutually agreed upon by the Lenders and the
 Borrower in the principal amount equal to the Exchange Equivalent of such Term Benchmark
 Loan; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) if any Base Rate Loan is already outstanding
 under the Credit Facility at any time when the right of the Borrower to obtain credit by
 way of a Base Rate Loan is suspended, it shall, subject to the Borrower having the right
 to obtain credit by way of a Term Benchmark Loan at such time under the Credit Facility,
 be immediately converted to a Term Benchmark Loan in the principal amount equal to the principal
 amount of the Base Rate Loan and having an Interest Period of one month or, if the Borrower
 do not have the right to obtain credit by way of a Term Benchmark Loan at such time, it shall
 be immediately converted to a loan in such other currency as may be mutually agreed upon
 by the Lenders and the Borrower in the principal amount equal to the Exchange Equivalent
 of the principal amount of the Base Rate Loan.

**3.6** **Time and Place of Payments**

Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the Borrower shall make all payments pursuant to this agreement or pursuant to any document, instrument or agreement delivered pursuant hereto by deposit to the relevant Designated Account before 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on the day specified for payment and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withdraw the amount of any payment due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder from such account on the day specified for payment. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to debit automatically, by mechanical, electronic or manual means, any bank account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent for all amounts due and payable by the Borrower under this agreement, including the repayment of principal and the payment of interest, fees and all charges for the keeping of that bank account. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower as to the particulars of those debits in the normal course.

**3.7** **Remittance of Payments**

Forthwith after the withdrawal from the relevant Designated Account by the Administrative Agent of any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.6, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to Sections 3.3 and 8.5, remit to each Lender, in immediately available funds, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such payment (except to the extent such payment results from a Loan with respect to which a Lender had failed, pursuant to Section 3.2, to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share and where any other Lender has made funds available in the place and stead of a Non-Funding Lender); provided that if the Administrative Agent, on the assumption that it will receive, on any particular date, a payment of principal (including a prepayment), interest, fees or other amount under the Credit Facility, remits to each Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment and the Borrower fails to make such payment, each Lender agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand, to the extent that such amount is not recovered from the Borrower on demand and after reasonable efforts by the Administrative Agent to collect such amount (without in any way obligating the Administrative Agent to take any legal action with respect to such collection), such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the payment made to it pursuant hereto together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day from the date such amount is remitted to the Lenders until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent, the exact amount of the repayment required to be made by the Lenders pursuant hereto to be as set forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to each Lender, which certificate shall constitute *prima facie* evidence of such amount of repayment.

**3.8** **Evidence of Indebtedness**

The Administrative Agent shall open and maintain accounts wherein it shall record the amount and type of credit outstanding, each advance and each payment of principal and interest on account of each Loan and all other amounts becoming due to and being paid to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereunder. The Administrative Agent's accounts constitute, in the absence of manifest error, *prima facie* evidence of the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereunder.

**3.9** **Notice Periods**

Each Drawdown Notice, Rollover Notice, Conversion Notice and Prepayment Notice shall be given to the Administrative Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) prior to 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time)
 on the third Banking Day prior to the date of any voluntary prepayment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) prior to 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time)
 on the third Banking Day prior to the date of a drawdown of, rollover of, conversion into
 or conversion of a Term Benchmark Loan; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) prior to 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time)
 on the Banking Day prior to the date of any other drawdown, rollover or conversion.

**3.10** **Administrative Agent's Discretion to Allocate**

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.2 with respect to the funding of Loans in accordance with each Lender's Pro Rata Share, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reallocate the funding or reimbursement obligations among the Lenders in order to ensure, to the greatest extent practicable, that after such funding the aggregate amount of credit extended hereunder by each Lender coincides with such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of credit extended under the Credit Facility by all of the Lenders, provided that no such allocation shall result in the aggregate amount of credit extended hereunder by any Lender exceeding such Lender's Individual Commitment.

**3.11** **Alternate Rate of Interest**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and
 (f) of this Section 3.11, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period
 for any Term Benchmark Loan:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which
 determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that "Adjusted
 Term SOFR" 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;(ii) the Majority Lenders determine that for
 any reason in connection with any request for a Term Benchmark Loan or a conversion thereto
 or a continuation thereof that Adjusted Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with
 respect to a proposed Term Benchmark Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
 to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Loan, and the Majority Lenders have provided
 notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent;

then the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make Term Benchmark Loans, and any right of the Borrower to continue Term Benchmark Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term Benchmark Loans, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term Benchmark Loans or affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Majority Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Term Benchmark Loan or conversion into, or continuation of, a Term Benchmark Loan (to the extent of the affected Term Benchmark Loans or affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for an Accommodation or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. 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 8.5.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
 herein or in any other Credit Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark
 Replacement Date have occurred in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then
 (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) 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
 Credit 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 Credit Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance
 with clause (b) 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 Credit Document 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 Credit Document so long as
 the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such
 Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement
 is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In connection with the use, administration,
 adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have
 the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the
 contrary herein or in any other Credit 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 Credit Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly
 notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement,
 and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration,
 adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will notify
 the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant
 to clause (e) below and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.
 Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or,
 if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.11, 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 Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this
 Section 3.11.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Notwithstanding anything
 to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, at any time (including in connection
 with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark
 is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for
 such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such
 rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion
 or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such 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 Administrative 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
 Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar
 or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such
 previously removed tenor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Upon the Borrower's receipt of notice
 of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending
 request for a Term Benchmark Loan of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans
 to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing
 that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a
 Loan of or conversion to a Base Rate Loan.

**3.12** **Administrative Agent Disclaimer**

The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to any Benchmark or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as any Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any Benchmark any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any Benchmark (or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof), in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity 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.

**ARTICLE 7**

**INTEREST AND FEES**

**7.1** **Interest Rates**

The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, in accordance with Section 3.8, interest on the outstanding principal amount from time to time of each Loan and on overdue interest thereon, at the rate per annum equal to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the case of each Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable
 Rate; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of each Term Benchmark Loan,
 the applicable Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

**7.2** **Calculation and Payment of Interest**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Interest on the outstanding principal
 amount from time to time of each Term Benchmark Loan and on overdue interest thereon shall
 accrue from day to day from and including the date on which credit is obtained by way of
 such Loan or on which such overdue interest is due, as the case may be, to but excluding
 the date on which such Loan or overdue interest, as the case may be, is repaid in full (both
 before and after maturity and judgment) and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual
 number of days elapsed divided by 360.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Interest on the outstanding principal
 amount from time to time of each Base Rate Loan and on overdue interest thereon shall accrue
 from day to day from and including the date on which credit is obtained by way of such Loan
 or on which such overdue interest is due, as the case may be, to but excluding the date on
 which such Loan or overdue interest, as the case may be, is repaid in full (both before and
 after maturity and judgment) and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of
 days elapsed divided by 365 or, in the case of a leap year, 366. Where the Base Rate is being
 computed, to the extent the Federal Funds Effective Rate applies and is calculated on the
 basis of a year that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year
 of calculation (such as a deemed year of 360 days), the provisions of Section 7.3(a) shall
 be applicable so that, in the result, all computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall
 be made on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Accrued interest shall be paid,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans,
 monthly in arrears on the last day of each calendar month; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of interest on Term Benchmark
 Loans, in arrears on the last day of the applicable Interest Period but, in any event, at
 least every 3 months.

**7.3** **General Interest Rules**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) For the purposes hereof, whenever interest
 is calculated on the basis of a year of 360 or 365 days, each rate of interest or fee determined
 pursuant to such calculation expressed as an annual rate for the purposes of the *Interest Act* (Canada) is equivalent to such rate as so determined multiplied by the actual number
 of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or
 365 days, respectively. The Borrower shall not plead or assert, whether by way of defense
 or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this agreement and the other Credit Documents,
 that the interest payable under this agreement and the calculation thereof has not been adequately
 disclosed to it, whether pursuant to section 4 of the *Interest Act* (Canada) or any
 other Applicable Law or legal principle.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Interest on each Loan and on overdue interest
 thereon shall be payable in the currency in which such Loan is denominated during the relevant
 period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Borrower fails to pay any fee or
 other amount (other than principal or interest) of any nature payable by it to the Administrative
 Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under any document, instrument or agreement delivered pursuant
 hereto on the due date therefor, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent or the
 Lenders, as the case may be, interest on such overdue amount in the same currency as such
 overdue amount is payable from and including such due date to but excluding the date of actual
 payment (as well before and after judgment) at the rate per annum, calculated and compounded
 monthly, which is equal to, (i) in the case of a Term Benchmark Loan, Term SOFR Rate
 for the Interest Period applicable thereto plus the Applicable Rate then in effect at all
 times that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) in the case of
 a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate then in effect at all times that
 an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Such interest on overdue amounts shall
 become due and be paid on demand made by the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) No interest or fee to be paid hereunder
 shall be paid at a rate exceeding the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. In the event
 that such interest or fee exceeds such maximum rate, such interest or fees shall be reduced
 or refunded, as the case may be, so as to be payable at the highest rate recoverable under
 Applicable Law.

**7.4** **Selection of Interest Periods**

With respect to each Term Benchmark Loan, the Borrower shall specify in the Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice, the duration of the Interest Period provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Interest Periods shall have a duration
 from one (1) month, three (3) months or six (6) months or such other periods
 which are acceptable to all Lenders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the first Interest Period for a Term Benchmark
 Loan shall commence on and include the day on which credit is obtained by way of such Loan
 and each subsequent Interest Period applicable thereto shall commence on and include the
 date of the expiry of the immediately preceding Interest Period applicable thereto; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) if any Interest Period would end on a
 day which is not a Banking Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding
 Banking Day unless such next succeeding Banking Day falls in the next calendar month, in
 which case such Interest Period shall be shortened to end on the immediately preceding Banking
 Day.

**7.5** **Standby Fees**

On the first Banking Day following the completion of each Fiscal Quarter and on the date of termination of the Credit Facility, the Borrower shall pay, in accordance with Section 3.6, to the Lenders, in arrears, a standby fee calculated at the rate per annum, on the basis of a year of 365 days, equal to the Applicable Rate on the Available Credit as at such date, such fee to accrue daily from the date of the execution and delivery of this agreement to and including the date of payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, standby fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Individual Commitment of any Lender while it is a Defaulting Lender.

**ARTICLE 8**

**RESERVE, CAPITAL, INDEMNITY AND TAX PROVISIONS**

**8.1** **Conditions of Credit**

The obtaining or maintaining of credit hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Article 8.

**8.2** **Illegality.**

If after the date hereof, the adoption of any Applicable Law, or any change in any Applicable Law (whether adopted before or after the date hereof), or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body, or compliance by any Lender with any such Applicable Law, shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund its portion of Term Benchmark Loans, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.2, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the good faith reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon receipt of such notice, notwithstanding anything contained in this agreement, each Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of such Lender's portion of each affected Term Benchmark Loan, together with accrued interest thereon, on either (a) the Interest Payment Date applicable to such affected Term Benchmark Loans if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund its portion of such Term Benchmark Loan to such day or (b) within 10 Banking Days of demand from such Lender if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain its portion of such affected Term Benchmark Loans to such day. Concurrently with repaying such portion of each affected Term Benchmark Loan, each Borrower may borrow a Base Rate Loan from such Lender, whether or not it would have been entitled to effect such borrowing and such Lender shall make such Loan of a Base Rate Loan, if so requested, in an amount such that the outstanding principal amount of the affected Loan made by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount of such Loan immediately prior to such repayment. The obligation of such Lender to make Term Benchmark Loans is suspended only until such time as it is once more possible and legal for such Lender to fund and maintain Term Benchmark Loans.

**8.3** **Change of Circumstances**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, any Change in Law or any compliance by any Credit Party therewith:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) prohibits or restricts extending or maintaining
 such type of credit or the charging of interest or fees in connection therewith, the Borrower
 agrees that such Credit Party shall have the right to comply with such Change in Law, shall
 have the right to refuse to permit the Borrower to obtain such type of credit and shall have
 the right to require, at the option of the Borrower, the conversion of such outstanding credit
 to another type of credit to permit compliance with the Change in Law or repayment in full
 of such credit together with accrued interest thereon on the last day on which it is lawful
 for such Credit Party to continue to maintain and fund such credit or to charge interest
 or fees in connection therewith, as the case may be; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) shall impose or require any reserve, special
 deposit requirements or tax (excluding Taxes in respect of which amounts are payable by the
 Borrower to a Credit Party under Section 8.7 and Excluded Taxes), shall establish an
 appropriate amount of capital to be maintained by such Credit Party or shall impose any other
 requirement or condition which results in an increased cost to such Credit Party of extending
 or maintaining a credit or obligation hereunder or reduces the amount received or receivable
 by such Credit Party with respect to any credit under this agreement or reduces such Credit
 Party's effective return hereunder or on its capital or causes such Credit Party to
 make any payment or to forego any return based on any amount received or receivable hereunder,
 then, on notification to the Borrower by such Credit Party, the Borrower shall pay immediately
 to such Credit Party such amounts as shall fully compensate such Credit Party for all such
 increased costs, reductions, payments or foregone returns which accrue up to and including
 the date of receipt by the Borrower of such notice and thereafter, upon demand from time
 to time, the Borrower shall pay such additional amount as shall fully compensate such Credit
 Party for any such increased or imposed costs, reductions, payments or foregone returns.
 Such Credit Party shall notify the Borrower of any actual increased or imposed costs, reductions,
 payments or foregone returns forthwith on becoming aware of same and shall concurrently provide
 to the Borrower a certificate of an officer of such Credit Party setting forth the amount
 of compensation to be paid to such Credit Party and the basis for the calculation of such
 amount. Notwithstanding this Section 8.3(a)(ii), the Borrower shall not be liable to
 compensate such Credit Party for any such cost, reduction, payment or foregone return occurring
 more than 90 days before receipt by the Borrower of the aforementioned notification from
 such Credit Party; provided, however, that the aforementioned limitation shall not apply
 to any such cost, reduction, payment or foregone return of a retroactive nature.

For certainty, the *Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act* as well as Basel III and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities shall be deemed to be a "**Change in Law**" for the purposes of this section 8.3(a), regardless of the date enacted, adopted, promulgated or issued. No Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to Section 8.3(a) unless such Lender is generally making corresponding demands on similar types of borrowers for similar amounts pursuant to similar provisions in other loan documents to which such Lender is a party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Credit Party agrees that, as promptly
 as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a
 condition that would cause it to seek additional amounts from the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.3(a),
 it will use reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the affected credit of such Credit
 Party through another lending office or take such other actions as it deems appropriate,
 in its sole discretion, if as a result thereof the additional moneys which would otherwise
 be required to be paid in respect of such credit pursuant to Section 8.3(a), would be
 reduced and if, as determined by such Credit Party in its sole discretion, the making, funding
 or maintaining of such affected credit through such other lending office or the taking of
 such other actions would not otherwise adversely affect such credit or such Credit Party
 and would not, in such Credit Party's sole discretion, be commercially unreasonable.

**8.4** **Replacement of a Lender**

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if (i) any Lender, but not all of the Lenders, who has an Individual Commitment seeks additional compensation pursuant to Section 8.2 (the "**Affected Lender**"), or (ii) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions of this agreement that requires the consent of all of the Lenders, the consent of the Majority Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a "**Non-Consenting Lender**") whose consent is required shall not have been obtained, or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, in the case of each such Affected Lender, Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender (each, a "**Terminated Lender**") the Borrower may, by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Accommodations and Individual Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a "**Replacement Lender**") in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4 provided, however, that incumbent Lenders shall have the right to assume any such Accommodations and Individual Commitments in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares in priority to any Person which is not a Lender at the time that the Borrower provided the afore-mentioned notice to the Administrative Agent. The Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders shall, in the aggregate, advance all (but not part) of the Terminated Lender's Pro Rata Share of the affected credit and, in the aggregate, assume all (but not part) of the Terminated Lender's Individual Commitments and obligations under the Credit Facility and acquire all (but not part) of the rights of the Terminated Lender and assume all (but not part) of the obligations of the Terminated Lender under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Credit Facility (but in no event shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so).

With respect to such advance, acquisition and assumption, the Pro Rata Share of such credit of each Replacement Lender and the Individual Commitments and the obligations of such Replacement Lender under the Credit Facility and the rights and obligations of such Replacement Lender under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Credit Facility shall be increased by its respective *pro rata* share (based on the relative Individual Commitments of the Replacement Lenders under the Credit Facility) of the Terminated Lender's Pro Rata Share of such credit and Individual Commitments and obligations and rights and obligations under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Credit Facility on a date mutually acceptable to the Replacement Lenders and the Borrower. On such date, each of the Replacement Lenders shall execute an instrument substantially in the form of Schedule C hereto and shall extend to the Borrower the Terminated Lender's Pro Rata Share of such credit and shall prepay to the Terminated Lender the Accommodations of the Terminated Lender then outstanding, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts owing to the Terminated Lender hereunder, and, upon such advance and prepayment by the Replacement Lenders, the Terminated Lender shall cease to be a "**Lender**" in connection with the Credit Facility for purposes of this agreement and shall no longer have any obligations thereunder. In addition to the foregoing, in respect of any Replacement Lender that is not, on the relevant date, an existing Lender, such Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver a Joinder Agreement (in the form set forth in Schedule C-2 hereto), which shall be executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and each such Replacement Lender shall be bound by the terms of the Credit Documents as a Lender. Upon the assumption of the Terminated Lender's Individual Commitments as aforesaid by a Replacement Lender, Schedule A hereto shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the amended or new Individual Commitments of such Replacement Lenders under the Credit Facility pursuant to the respective amounts of such assumptions.

**8.5** **Indemnity Relating to Credits**

Upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (which notice shall be accompanied by a detailed calculation of the amount to be paid by the Borrower), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount or amounts as will compensate the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for any loss, cost or expense incurred by them:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the liquidation or redeposit of any funds acquired by the Lenders
 to fund or maintain any portion of a Loan as a result of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the failure of the Borrower to borrow or
 make repayments on the dates specified under this agreement or in any notice from the Borrower
 to the Administrative Agent (provided that if any notice specifies the repayment of a Term
 Benchmark Loan at any time other than its maturity date, then the Borrower shall be responsible
 for any loss, costs or expenses referred to above); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the repayment or prepayment of any amounts
 on a day other than the payment dates prescribed herein or in any notice from the Borrower
 to the Administrative Agent (provided that if any notice specifies the repayment of a Term
 Benchmark Loan at any time other than its maturity date, then the Borrower shall be responsible
 for any loss, costs or expenses referred to above); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in converting United States dollars into
 Canadian Dollars or Canadian Dollars into United States dollars as a result of the failure
 of the Borrower to make repayments of outstanding credit hereunder in the currency in which
 such outstanding credit was denominated.

**8.6** **Indemnity for Transactional and Environmental Liability**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify
 and hold the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates, shareholders,
 officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the "**Indemnified Parties** ")
 free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action,
 suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith
 (irrespective of whether such Indemnified Party is a party to the action for which indemnification
 hereunder is sought), and including reasonable legal fees and out of pocket disbursements
 and amounts paid in settlement which are approved by the Borrower (collectively in this Section 8.6(a),
 the "**Indemnified Liabilities** "), incurred or suffered by, or asserted against,
 the Indemnified Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to
 (i) the extension of credit contemplated herein, (ii) any transaction financed
 or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any credit
 extended hereunder, (iii) any actual or threatened investigation, litigation or other
 proceeding relating to any credit extended or proposed to be extended as contemplated herein
 or (iv) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Credit Documents
 and any instrument, document or agreement executed pursuant hereto; provided such indemnity
 (x) does not extend to any such Indemnified Liabilities that a court of competent jurisdiction
 determined arose on account of the relevant Indemnified Party's gross negligence, criminal
 act or willful misconduct or breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under the
 Credit Documents, (y) does not extend to any loss of profit, income, revenue or business
 opportunities (it being agreed, however, for certainty, that such exclusion shall not apply
 to the repayment of principal, the payment of interest, fees and other related costs and
 expenses, or any other amount expressly required to be paid, repaid or reimbursed (as applicable)
 under or pursuant to Credit Documents), and (z) shall not apply to disputes solely between
 or among Indemnified Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without limiting the generality of the
 indemnity set out in the preceding clause (a), the Borrower hereby further agrees to indemnify
 and hold the Indemnified Parties free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demand,
 actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities and damages, and expenses
 in connection therewith, including reasonable and documented legal fees and out of pocket
 disbursements and amounts paid in settlement which are approved by the Borrower, of any and
 every kind whatsoever paid (collectively in this Section 8.6(b), the "Indemnified
 Liabilities"), incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties
 or any of them for, with respect to, or as a direct or indirect result of, (i) the presence
 on or under, or the escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission or Release from,
 any real property legally or beneficially owned (or any estate or interest which is owned),
 leased, used or operated by any Obligor of any Hazardous Material, contaminant, pollutant
 or waste, and (ii) any other violation of or liability pursuant to an Environmental
 and Social Law with respect to any Obligor, and regardless of whether caused by, or within
 the control of, such Obligor, except for any such Indemnified Liabilities that a court of
 competent jurisdiction determined arose on account of the relevant Indemnified Party's
 gross negligence or willful misconduct.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) All obligations provided for in this Section 8.6
 shall survive indefinitely the permanent repayment of the outstanding credit hereunder and
 the termination of this agreement. The obligations provided for in this Section 8.6
 shall not be reduced or impaired by any investigation made by or on behalf of the Credit
 Parties. This Section 8.6 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that
 represent claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities
 and damages, or expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Borrower hereby agrees that, for the
 purposes of effectively allocating the risk of loss placed on the Borrower by this Section 8.6,
 each Credit Party shall be deemed to be acting as the agent or trustee on behalf of and for
 the benefit of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If, for any reason, the obligations of
 the Borrower pursuant to this Section 8.6 shall be unenforceable, the Borrower agrees
 to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each obligation that
 is permissible under Applicable Law.

**8.7** **Gross-Up for Taxes**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any and all payments made by or on behalf
 of the Borrower under this agreement or under any other Finance Document (any such payment
 being hereinafter referred to as a "**Payment**") to or for the benefit of
 a Finance Party shall be made without set-off or counterclaim, and free and clear of, and
 without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any and all present or future Taxes
 except to the extent that such deduction or withholding is required by law or the administrative
 practice of any Official Body. If any such Taxes are so required to be deducted or withheld
 from or in respect of any Payment made to or for the benefit of a Finance Party, the Borrower
 shall:

&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) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such requirement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to Indemnified Taxes, pay
 to such Finance Party in addition to the Payment to which such Finance Party is otherwise
 entitled, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received
 by such Finance Party (free and clear of, and net of, any such Indemnified Taxes, including
 the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from any additional
 amount paid by the Borrower under this Section 8.7(a), whether assessable against the
 Borrower or such Finance Party) equals the full amount the Finance Party, would have received
 had no such deduction or withholding been required;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) make such deduction or withholding;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance
 with Applicable Law the full amount of Taxes required to be deducted or withheld (including
 the full amount of Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount paid
 by the Borrower, to the Finance Party under this Section 8.7(a)), within the time period
 required by Applicable Law; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) as promptly as possible thereafter, forward
 to the relevant Finance Party an original official receipt (or a certified copy), or other
 documentation reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such Finance Party, evidencing
 such payment to such Official Body.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay
 any and all present or future Other Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds
 harmless each Finance Party, on an after-Taxes basis, for the full amount of Taxes and Other
 Taxes, interest, penalties and other liabilities, levied, imposed or assessed against (and
 whether or not paid directly by) the Administrative Agent or such Finance Party, as applicable,
 and for all expenses, resulting from or relating to the Borrower's failure to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) remit to the Administrative Agent or such
 Finance Party the documentation referred to in Section 8.7(a)(v); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to
 the relevant Official Body (including any Taxes imposed by any Official Body on amounts payable
 under this Section 8.7).

The provisions of this Section 8.7(c) shall apply whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally assessed. The Administrative Agent or any Finance Party who pays any Taxes or Other Taxes shall promptly notify the Borrower of such payment, provided, however, that failure to provide such notice shall not detract from, or compromise, the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 8.7. Payment pursuant to this indemnification shall be made within 20 days from the date the Administrative Agent or the relevant Finance Party, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor accompanied by a certificate as to the amount of such Taxes or Other Taxes and the calculation thereof, which calculation shall be *prima facie* evidence of such amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Borrower determines in good faith
 that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Indemnified Taxes for which a payment has
 been made under this Section 8.7, the relevant Credit Party shall, if so requested by
 the Borrower, cooperate with the relevant Obligor in challenging such Indemnified Taxes at
 the Borrower's expense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If any Credit Party receives a refund
 of, or credit for, Taxes for which a payment has been made by the Borrower under this Section 8.7,
 which refund or credit in the good faith judgment of the Credit Party is attributable to
 the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such payment made by the Borrower, then such Credit
 Party shall reimburse the relevant Obligor for such amount (if any, but not exceeding the
 amount of any payment made under this Section 8.7 that gives rise to such refund or
 credit), net of out-of-pocket expenses of such Credit Party which the Credit Party determines
 in its absolute discretion will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse
 position than it would have been in if such Indemnified Taxes had not been exigible. The
 Borrower, upon the request of a Credit Party, agrees to repay such Credit Party any portion
 of any such refund or credit paid over to the Borrower that a Credit Party is required to
 pay to the relevant Official Body and agrees to pay any interest, penalties or other charges
 paid by such Credit Party as a result of or related to such payment to such Official Body.
 No Credit Party shall be under any obligation to arrange its tax affairs in any particular
 manner so as to claim any refund or credit. No Credit Party shall be obliged to disclose
 any information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the applicable Obligor or any
 other Person in connection with this Section 8.7(e) or any other provision of this
 Section 8.7.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any Credit Party that is entitled to an
 exemption from or reduction of withholding Taxes or Other Taxes (collectively, "**Relevant Taxes**") under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for
 tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to Payments
 shall deliver to the applicable Obligor (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the
 time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and reasonably requested by the applicable Obligor
 or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed
 by Applicable Law (if any) as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or
 at a reduced rate of withholding or a reduced rate of Relevant Taxes. In addition, any Credit
 Party, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
 documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (if any) or reasonably requested by the applicable
 Obligor or the Administrative Agent as will enable the applicable Obligor or the Administrative
 Agent to determine whether or not such Credit Party is subject to withholding or information
 reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Credit Party shall be required
 to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 8.7(f) that such Credit Party
 is not legally able to deliver.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Subject to Applicable Law, additional
 amounts payable under Section 8.7(a) have the same character as the Payments to
 which they relate. For greater certainty, for example, additional amounts payable under Section 8.7(a),
 in respect of interest payable under a Credit Document, shall be payments of interest
 under such Credit Document. All payments made under this Section 8.7 shall be subject
 to the provisions of this Section 8.7.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The obligations of the Borrower under
 this Section 8.7 shall survive without limitation the termination of the Credit Facility
 and this agreement and all other Credit Documents and the permanent repayment of the outstanding
 credit and all other amounts payable hereunder or thereunder.

**ARTICLE 9**

**ARTICLE 10**

**REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES**

**10.1** **Representations and Warranties**

To induce the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to enter into this agreement and to induce the Finance Parties to extend credit under the Finance Documents, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Finance Parties, as of the date of this agreement and as of the date each Loan is made hereunder (including any conversion to, or rollover into, any Term Benchmark Loan, but excluding any other conversion) as follows and acknowledge and confirm that the Finance Parties are relying upon such representations and warranties in entering into this agreement and in extending credit under the Finance Documents:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Status and Power of Obligors**. Each
 Obligor is a corporation duly incorporated or continued and organized and validly subsisting
 in good standing under the laws of its governing jurisdiction. Each Obligor is duly qualified,
 registered or licensed in all jurisdictions where the nature of its business makes such qualification,
 registration or licensing necessary or where failure to be in such standing or so qualified,
 registered or licensed would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
 Each Obligor has all requisite corporate capacity, power and authority to own, hold under
 licence or lease its properties, and to carry on its business as now conducted. Each Obligor
 has all necessary corporate capacity to enter into, and carry out the transactions contemplated
 by, the Finance Documents to which it is a party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Authorization and Enforcement**.
 All necessary action, corporate or otherwise, has been taken to authorize the execution,
 delivery and performance by each Obligor of the Finance Documents to which it is a party.
 Each Obligor has duly executed and delivered the Finance Documents to which it is a party.
 The Finance Documents to which each Obligor is a party are legal, valid and binding obligations
 of such Obligor, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms, except to
 the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by

&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) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and other laws of general application limiting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally 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;(ii) the fact that the courts may deny the granting or enforcement of equitable remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Compliance with Other Instruments**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The execution, delivery and performance
 by each Obligor of the Finance Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of
 the transactions contemplated herein and therein, do not and will not conflict with, result
 in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the terms, conditions or provisions
 of, the charter or constating documents or by laws of, or any shareholder agreement or declaration
 relating to, such Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The execution, delivery and performance
 by each Obligor of the Finance Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of
 the transactions contemplated herein and therein, (i) do not and will not conflict with,
 result in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the terms, conditions
 or provisions of, (x) any law, regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on or applicable
 to such Obligor or (y) any Material Agreement to which such Obligor is a party or is
 otherwise bound or by which such Obligor benefits or to which its property is subject and,
 (ii) do not require the Approval of any Official Body or any other party, other than
 any necessary Approval of the counterparties of the Material Agreements, which Approval has
 been obtained and remains in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(d)** **Financial Statements**. The consolidated financial statements of the Borrower for the most
 recently completed Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Year, as the case may be, were prepared in accordance
 with GAAP. The balance sheet of the aforesaid financial statement presents in all material
 respects a fair statement of the consolidated financial condition and assets and liability
 of the Borrower as at the date thereof and the statements of operations, retained earnings
 and cashflows contained in the aforesaid financial statements fairly presents in all material
 respects the results of the consolidated operations of the Borrower throughout the period
 covered thereby. Except to the extent reflected or reserved against in the aforesaid balance
 sheet (including the notes thereto) and except as incurred in the ordinary and usual course
 of the consolidated business of the Borrower, the Borrower does not have, as at the date
 of such balance sheet, any outstanding Indebtedness or any liability or obligations (whether
 accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) of a material nature required to be reflected
 or reserved against in a balance sheet (including the notes thereto) prepared in accordance
 with generally accepted accounting principles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(e)** **Litigation**.
 Except as disclosed in Schedule K, there are no actions, suits, inquiries, claims or proceedings
 (whether or not purportedly on behalf of any Obligor) pending or threatened in writing against
 or affecting any Obligor before any Official Body which in any case or in the aggregate could
 reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(f)** **Title to Assets**. Each Obligor has good and marketable title to its property, assets
 and undertaking, free from any Lien other than the Permitted Liens.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(g)** **Conduct of Business**. No Obligor is in violation of any Applicable Laws, save (except in
 the case of Anti-Corruption Laws) for non-compliance which could not reasonably be expected
 to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Obligor holds all licenses, certificates of approval,
 approvals, registrations, permits and consents which are required to operate its businesses
 where they are currently being operated except where the failure to have such licenses, certificates
 of approval, approvals, registrations, permits and consents could not reasonably be expected
 to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(h)** **Outstanding Defaults**. No Default or Event of Default exists or would result from the incurring
 of any Secured Obligations by any Obligor. No event has occurred which constitutes or which,
 with the giving of notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a material default under
 or in respect of any Transaction Document other than any default which the Borrower has advised
 in writing pursuant to Section 11.1(f)(iii).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(i)** **Tax Returns and Taxes**. Except as disclosed on Schedule M, each Obligor has filed all
 material Tax returns and Tax reports required by law to have been filed by it and has paid
 all material Taxes thereby shown to be owing, except any such Taxes which are being diligently
 contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in accordance
 with generally accepted accounting principles shall have been set aside on its books. The
 Borrower is a resident within the meaning of the Tax Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(j)** **Expropriation or Condemnation**. There is no present or threatened (in writing to an Obligor)
 expropriation or condemnation of the property or assets of any Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(k)** **Environmental Compliance**. Except as disclosed on Schedule N:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) All facilities and property (including underlying
 groundwater) owned, leased, used or operated by each Obligor are owned, leased used or operated
 by such Obligor in compliance with all Environmental and Social Laws except where any non-compliance
 could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and to the Knowledge of
 the Borrower all facilities and property (including underlying groundwater) previously owned,
 leased, used or operated by each Obligor were owned or leased in compliance with all Environmental
 and Social Laws except where any non-compliance could not reasonably be expected to have
 a Material Adverse Effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) There are no pending or threatened (in
 writing)

&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) claims, complaints, notices or requests
 for information received by any Obligor from any Official Body with respect to any alleged
 violation of any Environmental and Social Law which alleged violation could reasonably
 be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) complaints, notices or inquiries to any
 Obligor from any Official Body regarding potential liability under any Environmental and
 Social Law which potential liability could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
 Effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To the Knowledge of the Borrower, there
 have been no Releases of any Hazardous Materials or any escape, seepage, leakage, spillage,
 discharge, emission or release of any Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any property
 now or previously owned, operated, used or leased by any Obligor in violation of Environmental
 and Social Laws except for Releases of any Hazardous Materials which could not reasonably
 be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Each Obligor has been issued and is in
 compliance with all permits, certificates, approvals, licenses and other authorizations under
 any Environmental and Social Laws to carry on its business except where any non-compliance
 could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) To the Knowledge of the Borrower, no conditions
 exist at, on or under any property now or previously owned, operated, used or leased by any
 Obligor which, with the passage of time, or the giving of notice or both, would give rise
 to liability under any Environmental and Social Law except for the existence of any such
 conditions which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) For the avoidance of doubt, no representations
 are made with respect to the mines or projects to which Transaction Documents relate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(l)** **Subsidiaries and Partnerships**. As at the date hereof, and hereafter, except as such information
 may change as a result of a transaction not prohibited hereby and, where required, reported
 to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 11.1(b)(iii), the chart attached
 hereto as Schedule G accurately sets out corporate structure of the Borrower and all of its
 Subsidiaries. The Obligors account for greater than 90% of Consolidated Total Assets and
 greater than 90% of Consolidated Total Revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(m)** **Pension Plans**. No Obligor has established, or has any liability under, a Canadian DB Pension
 Plan or a Non U.S./Can. Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(n)** **Collective Bargaining Agreements**. No Obligor is a party to any collective bargaining agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(o)** **Material Agreements**. Each Material Agreement to which any Obligor is a party is in full
 force and effect and no material breach by any Obligor or, to the Knowledge of the
 Borrower, any other party thereto of any of the terms or conditions thereof has occurred
 and is continuing, and there have been no events that are continuing which, but for giving
 notice, lapse of time or any other condition subsequent, would constitute a default of a
 material obligation thereunder or would allow the early termination of such Material Agreement
 or the imposition of any material sanction on any party to such Material Agreement of which
 it is aware.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) **Insolvency Proceedings**. No Obligor has:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) admitted its inability to pay its debts
 generally as they become due or failed to pay its debts generally as they become due;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in respect of itself, filed an assignment
 or petition in bankruptcy or a petition to take advantage of any insolvency statute;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) made an assignment for the benefit of
 its creditors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) consented to the appointment of a receiver
 of the whole or any substantial part of its assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) filed a petition or answer seeking a reorganization,
 arrangement, adjustment or composition in respect of itself under applicable bankruptcy laws
 or any other Applicable Law or statute of Canada or other applicable jurisdiction or any
 subdivision thereof; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) been adjudged by a court having jurisdiction
 a bankrupt or insolvent, nor has a decree or order of a court having jurisdiction been entered
 for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee or assignee in bankruptcy of any Obligor
 with such decree or order having remained in force and undischarged or unstayed for a period
 of 30 days.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) **Solvency after Drawdown**. On a consolidated
 basis, after giving effect to each extension of credit hereunder,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the assets of the Borrower exceeds its liabilities,
 including contingent liabilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the capital of the Borrower shall not be
 unreasonably small to conduct its business; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Borrower has not incurred debts, nor
 has it intended to incur debts, beyond its abilities to pay such debts as they mature.

For the purpose of this 10.1(q), the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that is probable to become an actual or matured liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(r)** **Purpose of Credit**. No credit advanced to the Borrower under the Credit Facility and none
 of the other services and products to be provided by the Finance Parties to the Obligors
 under or in connection with the Finance Documents will be used for the purpose of funding,
 financing or facilitating any prohibited activities, business or transaction of or with any
 Sanctioned Person. No part of the proceeds of any Accommodation has been used by the Borrower
 directly or indirectly, (i) in violation of any Sanctions, or Anti-Corruption Laws,
 (ii) in violation of any Sanctions or (iii) to finance any hostile acquisition.
 No Obligor is a charity registered with the Canada Revenue Agency and no Obligor solicits
 charitable financial donations from the public.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(s)** **Perfection Certificates**. All information in each Perfection Certificate is true and correct
 in all material respects as at the date of delivery of such Perfection Certificate. The Borrower
 has provided written notification to the Administrative Agent as required in accordance with
 Section 11.1(b) of any change in the information certified in the Perfection Certificates
 which change would result in a Lien on a Secured Asset becoming unperfected or, in the case
 of any after acquired asset, such asset not subject to a Lien under a Security Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(t)** **Assets Insured**. To the extent insurable, all Secured Assets are insured with insurers,
 in amounts, and for risks which are reasonable and prudent and appropriate to its size, nature
 and stage of development. All premiums due and payable under such policies have been paid
 and the Obligors are in compliance in all material respects with the terms of such policies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(u)** **Intellectual Property**. Each Obligor owns or is licensed or otherwise has the right to use all
 Intellectual Property that is used in the operation of its businesses without conflict with
 the rights of any other Person (other than any Intellectual Property the absence of which
 or any such conflict with respect to which would not have a Material Adverse Effect). No
 Obligor has received any notice of any claim of infringement or similar claim or proceeding
 relating to any of the Intellectual Property which if determined against such Obligor could
 reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No present or former employee of
 any Obligor and no other Person owns or claims in writing to own or has or claims in writing
 to have any interest, direct or indirect, in whole or in part, in any of the Intellectual
 Property of such Obligor that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(v)** **Capital of Pledged Entities**. On the date of the delivery of the relevant Perfection Certificate,
 the authorized and issued capital of each Pledged Entity that is a direct or indirect subsidiary
 of the Obligor delivering such Perfection Certificate and the owner of record of all such
 issued capital, is as set forth in the Perfection Certificate of such Obligor, and all of
 the issued Shares that have been issued by each Pledged Entity are outstanding as fully paid
 and, where applicable, non-assessable. There are no outstanding warrants, options or other
 agreements which require or may require the issuance of any Shares of any Pledged Entities
 or the issuance of any debt or securities convertible into Shares of any Pledged Entities,
 there are no outstanding debt or securities convertible into Shares of any Pledged Entity
 and there are no Shares allotted for issuance, in each case, other than those that may be
 outstanding to an Obligor. Other than as set forth in Schedule G hereto, no Person or group
 of Persons directly or indirectly owns or controls 25% or more of the outstanding Shares
 of the Borrower other than the Elliott Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(w)** **Liens and Pledges**. The Liens granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security
 Documents delivered on or prior to the date this representation is made are fully perfected
 first priority Liens in and to the Secured Assets of the relevant Obligor, subject only to
 Permitted Liens and will, upon the acquisition of additional Secured Assets by such Obligor,
 subject only to Permitted Liens, constitute first charges or security interests upon all
 such Secured Assets of each such Obligor. All Shares issued by each Pledged Entity have been
 pledged in favour of the Administrative Agent for and on behalf of the Finance Parties, pursuant
 to a Security Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(x)** **Consent Agreements, Consents, Approvals, etc**. No Consent Agreements, consents, approvals,
 acknowledgements, undertakings, non-disturbance agreements, directions or other documents
 or instruments which have not already been provided to the Administrative Agent are required
 to be entered into by any Person (i) to make effective the Security created or intended

 Documents, (ii) to ensure the perfection and the intended priority of such Security
 and (iii) to implement the transactions contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(y)** **No Material Adverse Change**. Since the date of the most recent audited financial statements
 of the Borrower furnished to the Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with any
 Finance Document, there has been no Material Adverse Change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(z)** **Sanctions**.
 None of the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents, nor the execution and delivery
 thereof, violates the Sanctions and each Obligor is in compliance with all Sanctions. Furthermore,
 none of the Obligors or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Obligors or any of
 their respective Affiliates is a Sanctioned Person or is engaged in any activity that would
 reasonably be expected to result in such Person being designated as a Sanctioned Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(aa) **Regulatory Compliance**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Borrower is a "reporting issuer"
 (or the equivalent) in one or more of the provinces and territories in Canada and is not
 included on a list of defaulting reporting issuers maintained by the Securities Regulators.
 The Borrower has not taken any action to cease to be a reporting issuer in any jurisdiction
 in which it is a reporting issuer, and has not received any written notification from
 a Securities Regulator seeking to revoke the Borrower's reporting issuer status.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) As of their respective filing dates, each
 of the then current Public Disclosure Documents complied with the requirements of applicable
 Securities Laws in all respects and none of the Public Disclosure Documents contained any
 untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated
 therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances in
 which they were made, not misleading save for non-compliance, untrue statements or omissions
 of fact which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is
 no material change as of the date on which this representation is made relating to the Borrower
 which has occurred and with respect to which the requisite material change report has not
 been filed with the Securities Regulators and made publicly available on SEDAR. The Borrower
 has not filed any confidential material change report or other confidential report with any
 Securities Regulator or other Official Body which at the date hereof remains confidential.

**10.2** **Survival of Representations and Warranties**

All of the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in Section 10.1 shall survive the execution and delivery of this agreement until the Secured Obligations Termination Date, notwithstanding any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of any Finance Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c)** **Use of Proceeds.** The Borrower shall apply the proceeds of the Credit Facility (i) to

 shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, comply with all of the material provisions
 contained in all such insurance policies. All premiums for such insurance shall be paid by
 the Borrower or applicable Obligor when due and certificates of insurance and, if requested,

 therefrom, except where such non-compliance, non-observance or non-performance could not
 reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (save and except for Anti-Corruption
 Laws which shall not be so qualified by a Material Adverse Effect). The Borrower shall, and
 shall cause each other Obligor to, conduct its business in such a manner so as to comply
 with all Environmental and Social Laws except where any non-compliance could not reasonably
 be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each

 not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For the avoidance of doubt,
 no covenant is provided with respect to the mines or projects to which Transaction Documents
 relate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(j)** **Taxes**.
 The Borrower shall pay, and shall cause each other Obligor to pay, all material Taxes levied,

 notifications shall be required with respect to the mines or projects to which Transaction
 Documents relate.

 its jurisdiction of formation or the jurisdiction of its location for the purposes of Sections
 7 and 7.1 of the PPSA or adopts a French form of its legal name, the Borrower shall provide
 the Administrative Agent with prior written notice of such change or adoption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) **Additional Guarantees and Security**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) At least ten Banking Days prior to the direct
 or indirect formation or acquisition or designation by the Borrower of a Subsidiary (other
 than an Immaterial Subsidiary) after the date hereof, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative
 Agent of such proposed formation or acquisition (a "**Subsidiary Notice** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) On or before the date of the formation

 practicable using its commercially reasonable efforts and in any event within ten Banking
 Days after the formation, acquisition or qualification of such Subsidiary, deliver to the
 Administrative Agent the following:

&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) a Guarantee executed by such Subsidiary

The Administrative Agent may, on the instructions of the Majority Lenders and upon notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, perform any covenant of the Borrower under this agreement which such Obligor fails to perform or cause to be performed after demand for performance has been made and which the Administrative Agent is capable of performing, including any covenants the performance of which requires the payment of money, provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to perform any such covenant on behalf of an Obligor and no such performance by the Administrative Agent shall require the Administrative Agent to further perform an Obligor's covenants or shall operate as a derogation of the rights and remedies of the Finance Parties under this agreement or as a waiver of such covenant by the Administrative Agent. Any amounts paid by the Administrative Agent as aforesaid shall be reimbursed by the Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares and shall be repaid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders on demand.

 party to such Transaction Document;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) a default by a party other than an Obligor
 occurs, or any other event occurs under any Transaction Document, and continues without being

**13.2** **Remedies Cumulative** 

The Borrower expressly agrees that the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this agreement are cumulative and in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law. Any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant or condition in this agreement does not waive, alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy to which the Administrative Agent or such Lender may be lawfully entitled for the same default or breach. Any waiver by the Administrative Agent with the approval of the Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders in accordance with Section 14.14 of the strict observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant or condition of this agreement is not a waiver of any subsequent default and any indulgence by the Lenders with respect to any failure to strictly observe, perform or comply with any term, covenant or condition of this agreement is not a waiver of the entire term, covenant or condition or any subsequent default. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

**13.3** **Set-Off** 

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Administrative Agent and each Lender is authorized, at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower, to set off, appropriate and apply any and all deposits, matured or unmatured, general or special, and any other indebtedness at any time held by or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, to or for the credit of or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower which are due and payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, under the Credit Documents.

**ARTICLE 14**

**THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT**

**14.1** **Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent** 

Each Finance Party hereby appoints and authorizes, and hereby agrees that it will require any assignee of any of its interests in the Finance Documents (other than the holder of a participation in its interests herein or therein) to appoint and authorize the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by such Finance Party by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any of the Finance Parties for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct and each Finance Party hereby acknowledges that the Administrative Agent is entering into the provisions of this Section 14.1 on its own behalf and as agent and trustee for its directors, officers, employees and agents.

**14.2** **Interest Holders** 

The Administrative Agent may treat each Lender set forth in Schedule A hereto or the person designated in the last notice delivered to it under Section 16.5 as the holder of all of the interests of such Lender under the Credit Documents.

**14.3** **Consultation with Counsel** 

The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel selected by it as counsel for the Administrative Agent and the other Finance Parties and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice and opinion of such counsel.

**14.4** **Documents** 

The Administrative Agent shall not be under any duty to the Finance Parties to examine, enquire into or pass upon the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of the Credit Documents or any instrument, document or communication furnished pursuant to or in connection with the Credit Documents and the Administrative Agent shall, as regards the Finance Parties, be entitled to assume that the same are valid, effective and genuine, have been signed or sent by the proper parties and are what they purport to be.

**14.5** **Administrative Agent as Finance Party** 

With respect to those portions of the Credit Facility made available by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Credit Documents as any other Finance Party and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Obligors and their Affiliates and persons doing business with the Obligors and/or any of their Affiliates as if it were not the Administrative Agent and without any obligation to account to the Finance Parties therefor.

**14.6** **Responsibility of Administrative Agent** 

The duties and obligations of the Administrative Agent to the Finance Parties under the Credit Documents are only those expressly set forth herein. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to the Finance Parties to investigate whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred. The Administrative Agent shall, as regards the Finance Parties, be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing unless the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge or has been notified by the Borrower of such fact or has been notified by a Finance Party that such Finance Party considers that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such notification to specify in detail the nature thereof.

**14.7** **Action by Administrative Agent** 

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to use its discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any rights which may be vested in it on behalf of the Finance Parties by and under this agreement; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any rights under Section 13.1, or the other Credit Documents or expressed to be on behalf of or with the approval of the Majority Lenders without the request, consent or instructions of the Majority Lenders. Furthermore, any rights of the Administrative Agent expressed to be on behalf of or with the approval of the Majority Lenders shall be exercised by the Administrative Agent upon the request or instructions of the Majority Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall incur no liability to the Finance Parties under or in respect of any of the Credit Documents with respect to anything which it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment or which may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the circumstances, except for its gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting under any of the Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions shall be binding on all Finance Parties. In respect of any notice by or action taken by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Borrower shall at no time be obliged to enquire as to the right or authority of the Administrative Agent to so notify or act.

**14.8** **Notice of Events of Default** 

In the event that the Administrative Agent shall acquire actual knowledge or shall have been notified of any Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and shall take such action and assert such rights under Section 13.1 of this agreement and under the other Credit Documents as the Majority Lenders shall request in writing and the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any liability by reason of its acting pursuant to any such request. If the Majority Lenders shall fail for five Banking Days after receipt of the notice of any Default or Event of Default to request the Administrative Agent to take such action or to assert such rights under any of the Credit Documents in respect of such Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, and subject to subsequent specific instructions from the Majority Lenders, take such action or assert such rights (other than rights under Section 13.1 of this agreement or under the other Credit Documents and other than giving an express waiver of any Default or any Event of Default) as it deems in its discretion to be advisable for the protection of the Finance Parties except that, if the Majority Lenders have instructed the Administrative Agent not to take such action or assert such rights, in no event shall the Administrative Agent act contrary to such instructions unless required by law to do so.

**14.9** **Responsibility Disclaimed** 

The Administrative Agent shall be under no liability or responsibility whatsoever as agent hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) to the Borrower or any other Person as
 a consequence of any failure or delay in the performance by, or any breach by, any Finance
 Party or Finance Parties of any of its or their obligations under any of the Finance Documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) to any Finance Party or Finance Parties
 as a consequence of any failure or delay in performance by, or any breach by, any Obligor
 of any of their respective obligations under any of the Finance Documents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) to any Finance Party or Finance Parties
 for any statements, representations or warranties in any of the Finance Documents or in any
 other documents contemplated hereby or thereby or in any other information provided pursuant
 to any of the Finance Documents or any other documents contemplated hereby or thereby or
 for the validity, effectiveness, enforceability or sufficiency of any of the Finance Documents
 or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby.

**14.10** **Indemnification** 

The Finance Parties agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) *pro rata* in accordance with their relative Exposures from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of any of the Credit Documents or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under any of the Credit Documents or any document contemplated hereby or thereby, except that no Finance Party shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.

**14.11** **Credit Decision** 

Each Lender represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in making its decision to enter into this
 agreement and to make its Pro Rata Share of the Credit Facility available to the Borrower,
 it is independently taking whatever steps it considers necessary to evaluate the financial
 condition and affairs of the Obligors and that it has made an independent credit judgment
 without reliance upon any information furnished by the Administrative Agent; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) so long as any portion of the Credit Facility
 is being utilized by the Borrower, it will continue to make its own independent evaluation
 of the financial condition and affairs of the Obligors.

**14.12** **Successor Administrative Agent** 

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be required for so long as a Default has occurred and is continuing), resign at any time by giving 30 days written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Credit Parties. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be required (x) if the successor Administrative Agent is an Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Administrative Agent or of a Lender on the date hereof or (y) for so long as a Default has occurred and is continuing), shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall be one of the Lenders unless none of the Lenders wishes to accept such appointment. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment by the time of such resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Credit Parties and with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be required for so long as a Default has occurred and is continuing), appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank organized under the laws of Canada which has combined capital and reserves in excess of $250,000,000 and has an office in Toronto. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges, duties and obligations of the retiring Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not in its capacity as a Credit Party) and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not in its capacity as a Credit Party). After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, provisions of this Article 14 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

**14.13** **Delegation by Administrative Agent** 

With the prior approval of the Majority Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to delegate any of its duties or obligations hereunder as Administrative Agent to any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent so long as the Administrative Agent shall not thereby be relieved of such duties or obligations.

**14.14** **Waivers, Amendments and Consents** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to Sections 14.14(b) and
 (c), any term, covenant or condition of any of the Credit Documents may only be amended or
 consented to with the prior consent of the Borrower and the Majority Lenders or compliance
 therewith may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively
 or prospectively) by the Majority Lenders and in any such event the failure to observe, perform
 or discharge any such covenant, condition or obligation, so amended or waived (whether such
 amendment is executed or such consent or waiver is given before or after such failure), shall
 not be construed as a breach of such covenant, condition or obligation or as a Default or
 Event of Default.

 of interest or fees thereon or amend the requirement of *pro rata* application of all
 amounts received by the Administrative Agent in respect thereof.

 without the prior written consent of each Lender, each Qualified Cash Management Lender and
 each Qualified Risk Management Lender, no such amendment or waiver shall directly

 requirement to constitute the Majority Lenders or otherwise amend the definition of Majority
 Lenders;

The Obligors are entitled to assume that any action taken by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any Credit Document has been appropriately authorized by the Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms hereof.

**14.16** **Adjustments among Lenders after Acceleration** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Lenders agree that, at any time after
 all Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant hereto has become immediately due
 and payable pursuant to Section 13.1 or after the cancellation or termination of the
 Credit Facility, they will at any time or from time to time upon the request of any Lender
 through the Administrative Agent purchase portions of the availments made available by the
 other Lenders which remain outstanding, and make any other adjustments which may be necessary
 or appropriate, in order that the amounts of the availments made available by the respective
 Lenders which remain outstanding, as adjusted pursuant to this Section 14.16, will be
 in the same proportions as their respective Pro Rata Shares thereof with respect to the Credit
 Facility immediately prior to such acceleration, cancellation or termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Lenders agree that, at any time after
 all Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant hereto has become immediately due
 and payable pursuant to Section 13.1 or after the cancellation or termination of the
 Credit Facility, the amount of any repayment made by the Borrower under this agreement, and
 the amount of any proceeds of the exercise of any rights or remedies of the Lenders under
 the Credit Documents, which are to be applied against amounts owing hereunder as principal,
 will be so applied in a manner such that to the extent possible, the availments made available
 by the Lenders which remain outstanding, after giving effect to such application, will be
 in the same proportions as their respective Pro Rata Shares thereof with respect to the Credit
 Facility immediately prior to the cancellation of termination thereof immediately prior to
 such acceleration, cancellation or termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For greater certainty, the Lenders acknowledge
 and agree that without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 14.16(a) and
 (b), such provisions will have application if and whenever any Lender shall obtain any payment
 (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, compensation,
 or otherwise), other than on account of any monies owing or payable by the Borrower to it
 under the Credit Documents in excess of its *pro rata* share of payments on account
 of monies owing by the Borrower to all the Finance Parties thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Borrower agrees to be bound by and
 to do all things necessary or appropriate to give effect to any and all purchases and other
 adjustments made by and between the Lenders pursuant to this Section 14.16.

**14.17** **Redistribution of Payment** 

If a Lender shall receive payment of a portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due to it hereunder which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due in respect of the Credit Facility (having regard to the respective Individual Commitments), the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase a participation (which shall be deemed to have been done simultaneously with receipt of such payment) in that portion of the aggregate outstanding credit of the other Lender or Lenders so that the respective receipts shall be *pro rata* to their respective participation in the credits; provided, however, that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender shall be recovered from the Borrower, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price paid for such participation shall be returned by such selling Lender or Lenders to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

**14.18** **Distribution of Notices** 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice or other document which is delivered to the Administrative Agent hereunder on behalf of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such notice or other document to each of the Lenders; provided, however, that a copy of any such notice delivered at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be delivered by the Administrative Agent to each of the Finance Parties.

**14.19** **Discharge of Guarantees and Security** 

To the extent a sale or other disposition of the Secured Assets is permitted pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Lenders hereby authorize and direct the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and the Administrative Agent will execute and deliver at the request of the Borrower, at the cost and expense of the Borrower, such releases, discharges and other instruments which are necessary for the purposes of (i) releasing and discharging the Security therein or for the purposes of recording the provisions or effect thereof in any office where the Security Documents may be registered or recorded or (ii) for the purpose of more fully and effectively carrying out the provisions of this Section 14.19.

**14.20** **Determination of Exposures** 

Concurrent with any request for any approval or instructions of the Majority Lenders and prior to any distribution of Cash Proceeds of Realization to the Finance Parties, the Administrative Agent shall request each Finance Party to provide to the Administrative Agent a written calculation of such Finance Party's Exposure, each such calculation to be certified true and correct by the Finance Party providing same. Each Finance Party shall so provide such calculation within two Banking Days following the request of the Administrative Agent. Any such calculation provided by a particular Finance Party shall, absent manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of such Finance Party's Exposure at such time. With respect to each determination of the Exposure of the Finance Parties, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Finance Parties. For the purposes of determining a particular Finance Party's Exposure:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Exposure of a Finance Party under
 any Credit Documents shall be the aggregate amount (expressed in United States dollars) owing
 to such Finance Party thereunder on such date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Exposure of a Qualified Risk Management
 Lender in respect of Secured Risk Management Agreements shall be measured as the net exposure
 of such Qualified Risk Management Lender under all Secured Risk Management Agreements with
 the Obligors to which such Qualified Risk Management Lender is a party, being the aggregate
 exposure of such Qualified Risk Management Lender thereunder less the aggregate exposure
 of the relevant Obligor thereunder; the exposure of party to a Secured Risk Management Agreement
 shall be, in the case of a Secured Risk Management Agreement which has not been terminated
 as of such date, the total amount which would be owing to such party by the other party under
 such Secured Risk Management Agreement in the event of the early termination as of such date
 of such Secured Risk Management Agreement as a result of the occurrence of a default, event
 of default or termination event (however specified or designated) with respect to such party
 thereunder or, in the case of a Secured Risk Management Agreement which has been terminated
 as of such date, the total amount which is owing to such party by the other party under such
 Secured Risk Management Agreement, in each case expressed in United States dollars;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the Exposure of a Qualified Cash Management
 Lender in respect of Cash Management Agreements shall be measured as the net exposure of
 such Qualified Cash Management Lender under all Cash Management Agreements with the Obligors
 to which such Qualified Cash Management Lender is a party, being the aggregate exposure of
 such Qualified Cash Management Lender thereunder less the aggregate exposure of the Obligors
 thereunder; the exposure of a party to a Cash Management Agreement shall be, in the case
 of a Cash Management Agreement which has not been terminated as of such date, the total amount
 which would be owing to such party by the other party under such Cash Management Agreement
 in the event of the early termination as of such date of such Cash Management Agreement as
 a result of the occurrence of a default, event of default or termination event (however specified
 or designated) with respect to such party thereunder or, in the case of a Cash Management
 Agreement which has been terminated as of such date, the total amount which is owing to such
 party by the other party under such Cash Management Agreement, in each case expressed in
 United States dollars; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) any amount of Secured Obligations of the
 Borrower denominated in any currency other than United States dollars shall be expressed
 as the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof.

**14.21** **Decision to Enforce Security** 

Upon the Security becoming enforceable in accordance with its terms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify each of the Finance Parties. Any Lender may thereafter provide the Administrative Agent with a written request to enforce the Security. Forthwith after the receipt of such a request, the Administrative Agent shall seek the instructions of the Majority Lenders as to whether the Security should be enforced and the manner in which the Security should be enforced. In seeking such instructions, the Administrative Agent shall submit a specific proposal to the Finance Parties. From time to time, any Lender may submit a proposal to the Administrative Agent as to the manner in which the Security should be enforced and the Administrative Agent shall submit any such proposal to the Finance Parties for approval of the Majority Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Finance Parties of all instructions and approvals of the Majority Lenders. If the Majority Lenders instruct the Administrative Agent to enforce the Security, each of the Finance Parties agree to accelerate the Secured Obligations owed to it to the extent permitted under the relevant Finance Document and in accordance with the relevant Finance Document.

**14.22** **Enforcement** 

The Administrative Agent reserves the sole right to enforce, instruct or otherwise deal with, the guarantee of Borrower in Article 15, the Guarantees and the Security and any Intercreditor Agreement and to deal with the Obligors in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall so enforce, or otherwise deal with, the guarantee of the Borrower in Article 15, the Guarantees and the Security only as the Majority Lenders shall instruct.

**14.23** **Application of Cash Proceeds of Realization.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All Proceeds of Realization not in the
 form of cash shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent and disposed of, or
 realized upon, by the Administrative Agent in such manner as the Majority Lenders may approve
 so as to produce Cash Proceeds of Realization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to the claims, if any, of secured
 creditors of the Obligors whose security ranks in priority to the Security, all Cash Proceeds
 of Realization shall be applied and distributed, and the claims of the Finance Parties shall
 be deemed to have the relative priorities which would result in the Cash Proceeds of Realization
 being applied and distributed, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) firstly, to the payment of all reasonable
 costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent (including all legal fees and disbursements)
 in the exercise of all or any of the powers granted to it hereunder or under the Security
 Documents and Guarantees and in payment of all of the remuneration of any Receiver and all
 costs and expenses properly incurred by such Receiver (including all legal fees and disbursements)
 in the exercise of all or any powers granted to it under this agreement, the Guarantees and
 the Security Documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) secondly, in payment of all amounts of
 money borrowed or advanced by the Administrative Agent or such Receiver pursuant to the Security
 Documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) thirdly, to the payment of interest and
 fees forming part of the Secured Obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) fourthly, to the payment of the Secured
 Obligations of the Obligors (including holding as cash collateral to be applied against Secured
 Obligations which have not then matured) to the Finance Parties *pro rata* in accordance
 with their relative Exposures, which Cash Proceeds of Realization shall be applied by each
 Finance Party to its Exposure in such manner as it sees fit; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the balance, if any, in accordance with
 Applicable Law.

**14.24** **Survival** 

The provisions of Article 8, Article 10, Article 11, Article 14, Article 15 and Section 16.7 and all other provisions of this agreement which are necessary to give effect to each of the provisions of such Articles shall survive the permanent repayment in full of the Credit Facility and the termination of all of the Individual Commitments of the Lender in connection therewith until the Secured Obligations Termination Date.

**14.25** **Entering Into Contracts** 

The Administrative Agent may enter into any Credit Document as agent for and on behalf of the Finance Parties.

**ARTICLE 15<br> GUARANTEE**

**15.1** **Guarantee** 

The Borrower hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment to the Finance Parties, as and when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise of all of the Secured Obligations of each other Obligor in the same currency as the currency of such Secured Obligations, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses, indemnities or otherwise.

**15.2** **Nature of Guarantee** 

The guarantee provided for in this Article 15 shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Secured Obligations Termination Date. The Borrower guarantees that the Secured Obligations of each other and each other Obligor will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms thereof, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Finance Parties with respect thereto. The Borrower renounces all benefits of discussion and division. The liability of the Borrower hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of, and without being released or limited by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any
 lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any provision of this agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the
 failure of any Finance Party

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce
 any right or remedy against any Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor)
 under the provisions of this agreement, or otherwise, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to exercise any right or remedy against
 any other guarantor of, or collateral securing, any of the Secured Obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) any change in the time, manner or place
 of payment of, or in any term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other extension,
 compromise, indulgence or renewal of any Secured Obligation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) any reduction, limitation, variation,
 impairment, discontinuance or termination of the Secured Obligations for any reason (other
 than by reason of any payment which is not required to be rescinded), including any claim
 of waiver, release, discharge, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject
 to (and the Borrower hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defence or setoff, counterclaim,
 recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness,
 irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting,
 the Secured Obligations or otherwise (other than by reason of any payment which is not required
 to be rescinded);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) any amendment to, rescission, waiver or
 other modification of, or any consent to any departure from, any of the terms of the Secured
 Obligations or any guarantees or security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) any addition, exchange, release, discharge,
 renewal, realization or non-perfection of any collateral security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) any amendment to, or waiver or release
 or addition of, or consent to departure from, any other guarantee held by the Finance Parties
 as security for any of the Secured Obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) the loss of or in respect of or the unenforceability
 of any other guarantee or other security which the Finance Parties may now or hereafter hold
 in respect of the Secured Obligations, whether occasioned by the fault of a Finance Party
 or otherwise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any change in the name of an Obligor or
 in the constating documents, capital structure, capacity or constitution of an Obligor, the
 bankruptcy or insolvency of an Obligor, the sale of any or all of an Obligor's business
 or assets or being consolidated, merged or amalgamated with any other Person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) any other circumstance (other than final
 payment in full) which might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a legal or equitable
 discharge of any surety or any other guarantor.

Any Secured Obligation which may not be recoverable from the Borrower as guarantor shall be recoverable from the Borrower as principal debtor in respect thereof.

**15.3** **Finance Parties not Bound to Exhaust Recourse** 

The Finance Parties shall not be bound to exhaust their recourse against an Obligor or others or any security or other guarantees it may at any time hold before being entitled to payment hereunder from the Borrower.

**15.4** **Evidence of Secured Obligations** 

A written statement of the Administrative Agent as to the amount of any Secured Obligations of an Obligor shall, except for manifest error, be conclusive evidence and shall, in any event, be *prima facie* evidence against such Obligor as to the amount of such Secured Obligations.

**15.5** **Guarantee in Addition to Other Security** 

The guarantee provided for in this Article 15 shall be in addition to and not in substitution for any other guarantee or other security which the Finance Parties may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations, and the Finance Parties shall be under no obligation to marshal in favour of the Borrower any other guarantee or other security or any moneys or other assets which they may be entitled to receive or may have a claim upon.

**15.6** **Reinstatement** 

The guarantee provided for in this Article 15 and all other terms of this Article 15 shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment by the Borrower or any other Obligor of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the recipients thereof by reason of the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or such other Obligor or for any other reason, all as though such payment had not been made.

**15.7** **Waiver of Notice, Etc.** 

The Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Secured Obligations and this agreement.

**15.8** **Subrogation Rights, Assignment and Postponement of Claim** 

Until the Secured Obligations Termination Date, all dividends, compositions, proceeds of security or payments received by the Finance Parties in respect of the Secured Obligations shall be regarded for all purposes as payments in gross. The Borrower shall not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation under this agreement, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until the Secured Obligations Termination Date. Any amount paid to the Borrower on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Secured Obligations Termination Date shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Finance Parties and shall immediately be paid to the Finance Parties and credited and applied against the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that if the Secured Obligations Termination Date has occurred, the Borrower shall be subrogated to the rights of the Finance Parties against the applicable Obligor with respect to all Secured Obligations of such Obligor and, at the request of the Borrower, the Finance Parties will execute and deliver to the Borrower appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty, except that it has not released, assigned or encumbered any subject Secured Obligations) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to the Borrower of all such Secured Obligations.

**15.9** **Advance After Certain Events** 

All advances, renewals and credits made or granted hereunder or in connection herewith by the Finance Parties purportedly to or for any Obligor after the bankruptcy or insolvency of such Obligor but before the Finance Parties have received notice thereof, shall be deemed to form part of the Secured Obligations, and all advances, renewals and credits obtained from the Finance Parties hereunder purportedly by or on behalf of any Obligor shall be deemed to form part of the Secured Obligations, notwithstanding any lack or limitation of power, incapacity or disability of such Obligor or of the directors or agents thereof and notwithstanding that such Obligor may not be a legal or suable entity and notwithstanding any irregularity, defect or informality in the obtaining of such advances, renewals or credits, whether or not the Finance Parties had knowledge thereof. Any such advance, renewal or credit which may not be recoverable from the Borrower as guarantor shall be recoverable from the Borrower, as principal debtor in respect thereof.

**ARTICLE 16**

**MISCELLANEOUS**

**16.1** **Notices** 

All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered to an officer or other responsible employee of the addressee or sent to the email address (which email notice shall be sent with a "read receipt" request to qualify as a valid notice hereunder), as the case may be, set out opposite the parties' name on the signature page hereof or at or to such other address or addresses or email address as any party hereto may from time to time designate to the other parties in such manner. Any communication which is personally delivered as aforesaid shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively given on the date of such delivery if such date is a Banking Day and such delivery is received before 4:00 p.m.(Toronto time); otherwise, it shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively given on the Banking Day next following such date of delivery. Any communication which is transmitted by email as aforesaid shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively given on the date of transmission if such date is a Banking Day and such transmission was received before 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time); otherwise, it shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively given on the Banking Day next following such date of transmission. Any party sending a notice hereunder by email shall, in order to constitute valid notice hereunder, have received a confirmation of receipt from the intended recipient's email server.

**16.2** **Severability** 

Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

**16.3** **Counterparts** 

This agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by means of email or other electronic form, including PDF, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

**16.4** **Successors and Assigns** 

This agreement shall enure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

**16.5** **Assignment** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Neither the Credit Documents nor the benefit
 thereof may be assigned by the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Lender may at any time sell to one or
 more other persons ()"**Participants**") participating interests in any credit
 outstanding hereunder, any commitment of such Lender hereunder or any other interest of the
 Lender hereunder. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to
 a Participant, such Lender's obligations under this agreement to the Borrower shall
 remain unchanged and such Lender shall remain solely entitled to enforce its rights hereunder,
 such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof and the Borrower
 shall continue to be obligated to such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights
 under this agreement. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this agreement
 are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared to be or shall have become due and payable
 upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or any Default which might mature into an Event
 of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its
 participating interest in amounts owing under this agreement to the same extent as if the
 amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as the relevant Lender under
 this agreement. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits
 of Article 8 with respect to its participation hereunder and for the purposes of Article 8
 such Participant shall be deemed to be a Lender to the extent of such participation, provided,
 that such Participant shall have complied with obligations of a Lender provided in Article 8
 and that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such
 Article than the relevant Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the
 amount of the participation transferred by the relevant Lender to such Participant had no
 such transfer occurred.

(c) With the prior written consent of, (x) the Borrower (which consent shall not be required (i) if such sale is to one or more other Lenders or to an Affiliate of any Lender unless such sale results in an increased cost to the Borrower or (ii) in circumstances where a Default has occurred and is continuing) and (y) the Administrative Agent, a Lender may at any time sell all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Credit Documents to one or more Eligible Assignees ("**Purchasing Lenders**"). No consent shall be required in the case of the sale by a Lender listed in Schedule II or Schedule III of the *Bank Act* (Canada) to its Affiliate that is listed in Schedule II or Schedule III to the *Bank Act* (Canada). Upon such sale, the Lender shall, to the extent of such sale, be released from its obligations under the Credit Documents and each of the Purchasing Lenders shall become a party to the Credit Documents to the extent of the interest so purchased provided, however, no Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall be released from any obligation in respect of any damages arising in connection with it being or becoming a Defaulting Lender. Any such assignment shall be for Individual Commitments of at least $5,000,000 or such lesser amounts as would represent the entire interest of such Lender. Upon such sale, the Lender shall either retain an Individual Commitment of $5,000,000 or have assigned the entirety of its Individual Commitment. Any such assignment by a Lender shall not be effective unless and until such Lender has paid to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $5,000 for each Purchasing Lender, unless and until the Purchasing Lender has executed an instrument substantially in the form of Schedule C hereto whereby the Purchasing Lender has agreed to be bound by the terms of the Credit Documents as a Lender and has agreed to specific Individual Commitments with respect to the Credit Facility and a specific mailing address and email address for the purpose of notices as provided in Section 16.1 and unless and until the requisite consents to such assignment have been obtained, unless and until a copy of a fully executed copy of such instrument has been delivered to each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Upon any such assignment becoming effective, Schedule A hereto shall be deemed to be amended to include the Purchasing Lender as a Lender with the specific Individual Commitment, mailing address and email address as aforesaid and the Individual Commitment of the Lender making such assignment shall be deemed to be reduced by the amount of the Individual Commitment of the Purchasing Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of any Person shall be required, nor shall any assignment fee be payable, where a Lender assigns all or any part of its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more other Lenders or Affiliates of a Lender (unless such sale results in an increased cost to the Borrower, in which case, the consent of the Borrower shall be required unless a Default has occurred and is continuing) or pledges or assigns its rights hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank of the United States, the Bank of Canada, the European Central Bank or any other central bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Borrower authorizes the Administrative
 Agent and the Lenders to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing Lender (each, a "**Transferee** ")
 and any prospective Transferee or any professional advisor of any Transferee or prospective
 Transferee and authorizes each of the Lenders to disclose to any other Lender any and all
 financial information in their possession concerning the Obligors which has been delivered
 to them by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this agreement or which has been delivered
 to them by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with their credit evaluation of the
 Obligors prior to becoming a party to this agreement, so long as any such Transferee agrees
 not to disclose any confidential, non-public information to any person other than its non
 brokerage affiliates, employees, accountants or legal counsel, unless required by law and
 authorizes each of the Lenders to disclose to any other Lender and to any Person where disclosure
 is required by law, regulation, legal process or regulatory authority (for certainty under
 any circumstance and not solely in connection with assignment of rights).

**16.6** **Disclosure.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each of the Administrative Agent and the
 other Finance Parties agrees to use all Information solely for the purposes of providing
 services that are the subject of the Finance Documents and shall treat confidentially all
 such Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to it, its Affiliates
 and its Affiliates' respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors
 and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom disclosure is made will
 be informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed to keep the Information
 confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to
 have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority), (c) to the extent
 required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to
 any other Finance Party, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under any
 Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to any Credit Document or the enforcement
 of rights under the Credit Documents, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
 substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant
 in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under
 this agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any
 Risk Management Agreement, credit-linked note or similar transaction relating to the Borrower
 and the Secured Obligations, and any credit insurance or reinsurance provider relating to
 the Borrower and its Secured Obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to
 the extent Information

&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) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 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;(ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Finance Party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than an Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For purposes of this Section, "**Information** "
 means all information received in connection with any Credit Document from any Obligor relating
 to any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than
 any such information that was available to the Administrative Agent or any other Finance
 Party on a non-confidential basis before such receipt. Any Person required to maintain the
 confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have
 complied with its obligation to do so if the Person has exercised the same degree of care
 to maintain the confidentiality of the Information as the Person would accord to its own
 confidential information. In addition, the Administrative Agent may disclose to any agency
 or organization that assigns standard identification numbers to loan facilities such basic
 information describing the Credit Facility as is necessary to assign unique identifiers (and,
 if requested, supply a copy of this agreement), it being understood that the Person to whom
 disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed
 to make available to the public only such Information as the Person normally makes available
 in the course of its business of assigning identification numbers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In addition, the Administrative Agent
 may provide customary information including details of the Obligors, the amount, term, purpose,
 pricing and repayment requirements of the Credit Facility and the principal covenants contained
 in this agreement to Loan Pricing Corporation and/or other recognized trade publishers of
 information for general circulation in the loan market.

**16.7** **Judgment Currency** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing
 judgment against the Borrower in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert
 into a particular currency (such currency being hereinafter in this Section 16.7 referred
 to as the "**Judgment Currency**") an amount due in another currency (such
 other currency being hereinafter in this Section 16.7 referred to as the "**Indebtedness Currency**") under this agreement, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange
 prevailing on the Banking Day immediately preceding:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the date of actual payment of the amount
 due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of a jurisdiction that will give effect
 to such conversion being made on such date; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the date on which the judgment is given,
 in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which
 such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 16.7(a)(ii) being hereinafter
 in this Section 16.7 referred to as the "**Judgment Conversion Date** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If, in the case of any proceeding in the
 court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 16.7(a)(ii), there is a change in the
 rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment
 of the amount due, the Borrower shall pay to the appropriate judgment creditor or creditors
 such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary
 to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange
 prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Indebtedness Currency which
 could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment
 or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any amount due from the Borrower under
 the provisions of Section 16.7(b) shall be due to the appropriate judgment creditor
 or creditors as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for
 any other amounts due under or in respect of this agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The term "**rate of exchange** "
 in this Section 16.7 means the exchange rate for Canadian interbank transactions applied
 in converting the Indebtedness Currency into the Judgment Currency published by the Bank
 of Canada at or about 4:30 p.m. for the day immediately prior to the day in question.

**16.8** **Contractual Recognition of Bail-In** 

Notwithstanding any other term of any Finance Document or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding between the Parties, each Party acknowledges and accepts that any liability of any Party to any other Party under or in connection with the Finance Documents may be subject to Bail-In Action by the relevant Resolution Authority and acknowledges and accepts to be bound by the effect of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any
 Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) a reduction, in full or in part, in the
 principal amount, or outstanding amount due (including any accrued but unpaid interest) in
 respect of any such liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) a conversion of all, or part of, any such
 liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or conferred
 on, it; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) a cancellation of any such liability;
 and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) a variation of any term of any Finance
 Document applicable solely to the relevant Party to the extent necessary to give effect to
 any Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability.

**16.9** **Illegality** 

If any Lender determines, acting reasonably, that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Official Body (other than a first nations or aboriginal government) has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender to hold or benefit from a Guarantee or Lien over real property, as the case may be, pursuant to any law of any country, such Lender may notify the Administrative Agent and disclaim any benefit of such Guarantee or Lien over real property, as the case may be, to the extent of such illegality; provided, that such determination or disclaimer shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such Guarantee or Lien over real property, as the case may be, for the benefit of any other Lender.

**16.10** **Anti-Money Laundering Legislation** 

The Borrower acknowledges that, pursuant to Anti-Money Laundering Legislation, the Finance Parties may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding each Obligor, their respective directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other persons in Control of such Obligor, and the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents, and disclose such information to Official Bodies. The Borrower consents to such information being obtained, verified, recorded and disclosed to Official Bodies and agrees to promptly provide to the Finance Parties all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by a Finance Party, or any prospective Transferee or in order to comply with Anti-Money Laundering Legislation.

**16.11** **Relationship Between Parties** 

The relationship between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and lenders. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall under any circumstances be construed to be partners or joint venturers of the Borrower or its Affiliates. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall under any circumstances be deemed to be in a relationship of confidence or trust or a fiduciary relationship with the Borrower or its Affiliates, or to owe any fiduciary duty to the Borrower or its Affiliates. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders undertake or assume any responsibility or duty to the Borrower or its Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform the Borrower or its Affiliates of any matter in connection with their property or the operations of the Borrower or its Affiliates. The Borrower and its Affiliates shall rely entirely upon their own judgment with respect to such matters, and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in connection with such matters shall be solely for the protection of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Person shall be entitled to rely thereon.

**16.12** **Further Assurances** 

The Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, from time to time and at all times hereafter, upon every reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, make, do, execute, and deliver or cause to be made, done, executed and delivered all such further acts, deeds, assurances and things as may be necessary in the opinion of the Administrative Agent for more effectually implementing and carrying out the true intent and meaning of the Credit Documents or any agreement delivered pursuant hereto or thereto and such additional security, legal opinions, consents, approvals, acknowledgements, undertakings, non-disturbance agreements, directions and negotiable documents of title in connection with the property and assets of the Obligors, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent may from time to time request, to ensure (i) that all Secured Assets are subject to a Lien in favour of the Administrative Agent and (ii) the intended first ranking priority of such Liens (subject to Permitted Liens which by their nature would constitute prior ranking security).

**16.13** **Entire Agreement** 

This agreement and the agreements referred to herein and delivered pursuant hereto (including the Fee Letters) constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto and supersede any prior agreements, undertakings, declarations, representations and understandings, both written and verbal, in respect of the subject matter hereof.

**16.14** **Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.** 

To the extent that the Finance Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Secured Risk Management Agreement 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 Finance Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of, inter alia, the Province of Ontario). 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 Finance 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 Finance 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.

**16.15** **Erroneous Payments** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if
 the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined
 in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent
 or any of its affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly
 received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment
 or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a
 "**Erroneous Payment**") and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment
 (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than five Banking
 Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment
 (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency
 so received) and (ii) to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, such Lender shall not
 assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim,
 defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim
 by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including
 without limitation waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value" or any
 similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this clause (a) shall
 be conclusive, absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without limiting immediately preceding
 clause (a), each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from
 the Administrative Agent (or any of its affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount
 than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative
 Agent (or any of its affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an "**Erroneous Payment Notice** "), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous
 Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or
 received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error has been made
 (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of receipt of such Erroneous
 Payment) with respect to such Erroneous Payment, and to the extent permitted by Applicable
 Law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby
 waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to
 any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous
 Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on "discharge
 for value" or any similar doctrine. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, it
 shall promptly (and, in all events, within one Banking Day of its knowledge (or deemed knowledge)
 of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the
 Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in all events no later than five Banking Days
 thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or
 portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so
 received).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous
 Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Secured Obligations
 owed by the Borrower or any other Obligor, 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 Administrative Agent from (i) the Borrower or any other Obligor
 or (ii) the proceeds of realization from the enforcement of one or more Credit Documents
 against or in respect of one or more of the Obligors, in each case, for the purpose of making
 such Erroneous Payment.

(d) The Borrower hereby agree that in the event
 an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received
 such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall
 be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount.

(e) Each party's obligations under this
 Section 16.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent,
 the termination of all Individual Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge
 of all Secured Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Credit Document.

No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by a Senior Creditor of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion will not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Senior Creditor would otherwise have on any future occasion.
