&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Company has the authorized capitalization as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses and all of the issued and outstanding SV Shares, multiple voting shares, Series A perpetual convertible preferred shares and Series B perpetual convertible preferred shares, including the SV Shares to be sold by the Selling Shareholders, have been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable and conform to the description of the SV Shares, multiple voting shares, Series A perpetual convertible preferred shares and Series B perpetual convertible preferred shares contained in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses. Except as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses, no person has any agreement or option, or right or privilege (whether pre-emptive or contractual) capable of becoming an agreement or option, for the purchase from the Company of any unissued shares of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The form and terms of the SV Shares have been approved and adopted by the board of directors of the Company and do not conflict with the constating documents or by-laws of the Company, any Laws of general application or the rules of the TSX or NYSE.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The issued and outstanding shares and other securities of each Subsidiary of the Company are held, beneficially and of record, by the Company or another Subsidiary (as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses in the case of significant subsidiaries) and other than pursuant to share pledge agreements, if any, in favor of (i) the Company's lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) the collateral agent for the benefit of the holders of the Existing Secured Notes, all such shares and other securities are free and clear of any Liens and all of the securities of each of its Subsidiaries have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Except for rights granted by the Company and its Subsidiaries in favor of the Company's lenders in connection with security (including mortgages of real property), rights granted by Subsidiaries under their applicable governing documents, Liens granted by the Company or its Subsidiaries to such lenders, Liens in connection with outstanding letters of credit, performance bonds, equipment loans and capital leases, and Liens as otherwise permitted under (i) the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) the Existing Indentures, no Person, other than the Company, has at the date hereof and no Person will have at the time of closing on the Closing Date any written or oral agreement, option or warrant or any right or privilege (whether by Law, preemptive or contractual) capable of becoming such for the purchase, subscription, allotment or issuance of any securities of any Subsidiary of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP, including, but not limited to, internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (1) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorization; (2) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets; (3) access to its assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization; (4) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to differences; and (5) material information relating to it is made known to those within the Company or such Subsidiary responsible for the preparation of the financial statements during the period in which the financial statements have been prepared. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is not aware of any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting (it being understood that this subsection shall not require the Company to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as of an earlier date than it would otherwise be required to so comply under applicable law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) The Company and its Subsidiaries maintain "disclosure controls and procedures" (as such term is defined in both Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act and National Instrument 52-109 – *Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings*); such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, including controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurances that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) No acquisition has been made by the Company or its Subsidiaries that is a significant acquisition for the purposes of Canadian Securities Laws and no proposed acquisition by the Company or its Subsidiaries has progressed to a state where a reasonable person would believe that the likelihood of completing the acquisition is high and that if completed at the date of this Agreement, would be a significant acquisition for the purposes of Canadian Securities Laws, in each case that would require disclosure in respect of the acquired business in the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus or the Canadian Final Prospectus as prescribed by item 10 of Form 44-101F1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) Each of this Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreements and the Registration Rights Agreement conforms in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses. The Company has complied with all provisions of the Investor Rights Agreements and the Registration Rights Agreement applicable to the offer and sale of the Securities, including, if applicable, obtaining the waiver of certain shareholders to the registration rights granted thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is (1) in violation of its constating documents or by-laws (or equivalent), (2) in default, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default, in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, trust deed, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or its property may be bound, or (3) in violation of any Law or statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority, except, in the case of subclauses (2) and (3) above, for such violations or defaults which would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) No legal, regulatory or governmental investigations, actions, demands, claims, suits, arbitrations, inquiries or proceedings ("Actions") are pending to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or to which the property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject that would result individually or in the aggregate in a Material Adverse Effect or affect the validity of the sale of the Securities under this Agreement, and no Actions have been threatened against or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or with respect to any of their respective properties which would in each case reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has conducted and is conducting its activities and business in all respects in compliance with all Laws of each jurisdiction in which it carries on business or conducts its activities, including each license held by them and are not in violation of, or in default in any respect under, any applicable statutes and regulations and all other ordinances, rules, regulations, orders or decrees having the force of Law (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws) of any Governmental Authorities having, asserting or claiming jurisdiction over it or over any part of their respective operations or assets, except for such non-compliance, violations and defaults which, individually or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(u) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all of its material properties and assets, in each case, free and clear of all Liens (other than (i) Liens permitted by the Existing Indentures, (ii) as are granted under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Existing Secured Notes Indentures, and (iii) mortgages, charges or other encumbrances that would not reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the material property and assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis); and as of the date hereof, except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses and except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no agreement to purchase, option to purchase or right of first refusal to purchase has been granted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any of the assets of the Company or any its Subsidiaries, as applicable, or any part thereof, that have not expired or been waived.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company will (i) prepare and file the Canadian Final Prospectus Supplement in a form approved by you in accordance with the Canadian Shelf Procedures with each of the Canadian Securities Commissions as soon as reasonably practicable after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and in any event no later than the earlier of the first day that such Canadian Final Prospectus Supplement is delivered to an investor or two days following the date hereof; and (ii) take all other steps and proceedings that may be necessary to qualify the Securities for distribution and sale to the public in each of the Canadian Qualifying Jurisdictions through investment dealers or brokers registered under the applicable laws of such jurisdictions who have complied with the relevant provisions of such applicable laws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company will prepare and, as soon as reasonably practicable after the filing of the Canadian Final Prospectus Supplement, file the U.S. Final Prospectus Supplement in a form approved by you within the applicable period specified in General Instruction II.L of Form F-10 under the Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Company will make no further amendment or any supplement to the Registration Statement, the U.S. Final Prospectus or the Canadian Final Prospectus prior to the last Closing Date which shall be reasonably disapproved by you promptly after reasonable notice thereof; to advise you, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when any amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed or becomes effective or any amendment or supplement to the U.S. Final Prospectus or Canadian Final Prospectus or any amended U.S. Final Prospectus or Canadian Final Prospectus has been filed and to furnish you with copies thereof (including, in the case of any supplemented or amended Canadian Final Prospectus, in the English and French languages) and to deliver to the Underwriters all signed and certified copies of any such supplemented or amended Canadian Final Prospectus in the English and French languages along with all documents similar to those referred to in sub-Sections 6(j)(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) and such other documents as the Underwriters may reasonably request; to file promptly all material required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act; to advise you, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the issuance by the Commission or any of the Canadian Securities Commissions of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or other prospectus in respect of the Securities, of the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose, of any written communication received by the Company from any Canadian Securities Commission, the TSX or any Governmental Authority or of any request by the Commission or any Canadian Securities Commission for the amending or supplementing of the Registration Statement, the U.S. Final Prospectus or the Canadian Final Prospectus, as applicable, or for additional information; and, in the event of the issuance of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or other prospectus or suspending any such qualification, to promptly use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the occurrence of any such suspension or objection.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If, at any time prior to the filing of the U.S. Final Prospectus, any event occurs as a result of which, in the opinion of counsel to the Underwriters, or counsel for the Company, the Disclosure Package would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made at such time not misleading, the Company will (i) notify promptly the Representative so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to correct such statement or omission; and (iii) supply any amendment or supplement to the several Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters without charge in such quantities as they may reasonably request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If, during such period of time after the first date of the public offering of the Securities as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriter a prospectus relating to the Securities is required by law to be delivered (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172) (the "Prospectus Delivery Period"), any event occurs, as a result of which, in the opinion of counsel to the Underwriters, or counsel for the Company, the Prospectuses as then supplemented would (i) include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, (ii) any event shall have occurred that would constitute a material change (as such term is defined under Canadian Securities Laws), or (iii) if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement U.S. Final Prospectus or Canadian Final Prospectus in order to comply with the Act or Canadian Securities Laws, as applicable, the Company will promptly (i) notify the Representative of any such event; (ii) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the first sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 6, an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance; and (iii) supply any amended U.S. Final Prospectus or Canadian Final Prospectus (in the English and French languages), as the case may be, or a supplement to the U.S. Final Prospectus or Canadian Final Prospectus (in the case of a supplement to the Canadian Final Prospectus, in the English and French languages) to the several Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters without charge in such quantities as they may reasonably request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Each of Company and the Selling Shareholders will cooperate with the Representative and use commercially reasonable efforts to permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through DTC and CDS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Company will furnish to the Representative and counsel for the Underwriters, without charge, signed copies of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto) and to each other Underwriter a copy of the Registration Statement (without exhibits thereto) and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172) during the Prospectus Delivery Period, as many copies of each U.S. Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus, each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, each and any supplement thereto as the Representative may reasonably request. The Company will furnish to the Representative and counsel for the Underwriters, without charge, copies of the Canadian Final Prospectus in the English and French languages so long as delivery of the Canadian Final Prospectus may be required by Canadian Securities Laws. The Company will pay the expenses of printing or other production of all documents relating to the offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Company will deliver to the Underwriters contemporaneously, as nearly as practicable, with the execution and delivery of this Agreement (i) copies of the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus in each of the French and English language signed and certified as required by Canadian Securities Laws in each of the Canadian Qualifying Jurisdictions; (ii) copies of all such documents and certificates that were filed with the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus under Canadian Securities Laws. The Company will deliver to the Underwriters contemporaneously, as nearly as practicable, with the filing of the Canadian Final Prospectus (i) copies of the Canadian Final Prospectus in each of the French and English language signed and certified as required by Canadian Securities Laws in each of the Canadian Qualifying Jurisdictions; (ii) copies of all such documents and certificates that were filed with the Canadian Final Prospectus under Canadian Securities Laws; (iii) opinions of the GFL Auditors dated the date of the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus and the Canadian Final Prospectus, addressed to the Underwriters, the Company, and their respective counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters and their counsel, to the effect that the French language versions of (A) the financial statements and notes to such statements and the related auditors' report on such statements, and (B) management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company for all periods presented or incorporated by reference within the Disclosure Package (collectively, the "Financial Information"), in each case contained or incorporated by reference in the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus and the Canadian Final Prospectus includes the same information and in all material respects carries the same meaning as the English language versions thereof; and (iv) opinions of Stikeman Elliott LLP, dated the date of the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus and the Canadian Final Prospectus addressed to the Underwriters', the Company, and their respective counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters and their counsel, to the effect that the French Language version of each of the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus and the Canadian Final Prospectus, except for the Financial Information, as to which no opinion need be expressed by such counsel, is, in all material respects, a complete and proper translation of the English language version thereof. The deliveries set forth in clause (i) above shall also constitute the Company's consent to the Underwriters' use of the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus and of the Canadian Final Prospectus, as applicable, for the distribution of the Securities in the Canadian Qualifying Jurisdictions in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Company will assist the Underwriters in arranging, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities for sale by the Underwriters under the securities laws of such U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions as you may reasonably request and to comply with such laws so as to permit the continuance of sales and dealings therein in such jurisdictions for as long as may be necessary to complete the distribution of the Securities; provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would reasonably be expected to subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject or to subject themselves to taxation in excess of a nominal amount in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) [reserved];

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) [reserved];

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The Company agrees to pay the costs and expenses relating to the following matters: (i) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company's counsel and accountants in connection with the registration of the Securities under the Act, the qualification of the Securities for distribution by prospectus under Canadian Securities Laws and all other expenses in connection with the preparation, printing, reproduction and filing of the Registration Statement, any U.S. Preliminary Prospectus, Canadian Preliminary Prospectus, any Marketing Materials, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and the Prospectuses and amendments and supplements thereto and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Underwriters and dealers; (ii) the preparation, printing, authentication, issuance and delivery of certificates, if any, for the Securities; (iii) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery of any blue sky memorandum delivered in connection with the offering of the Securities; (iv) the registration of the Securities under the Exchange Act; (v) all expenses in connection with the qualification of the Securities for offering and sale under U.S. state laws and Canadian Securities Laws as provided in Section 6(i) hereof, including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters in connection with such qualification and in connection with the Blue Sky survey (such fees and expenses referenced in clause (iii) and (v) not to exceed $10,000); (vi) the approval of the Securities for book entry transfer by DTC and CDS; (vii) any filings required to be made with the FINRA (including filing fees and the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters relating to such filings in an amount not to exceed $30,000; (viii) the transportation and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Company in connection with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Securities, including any "roadshow" (and including one half of the cost of all chartered aircraft or other chartered transportation used in connection with any "roadshow"); (ix) the costs and expenses associated with the preparation or dissemination of any electronic road show, expenses associated with the production of road show slides and graphics, fees and expenses of any consultants engaged in connection with the road show presentations with the prior approval of the Company; (x) [reserved]; and (xi) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the forgoing, except as specifically provided in this paragraph (l) and in Section 8 hereof, the Underwriters shall pay their own costs and expenses in connection with presentations for prospective purchasers of the Securities including the transportation and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Underwriters in connection with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Securities, including any "roadshow" (and including one half of the cost of all chartered aircraft or other chartered transportation used in connection with any "roadshow"), and the fees of their counsel, stock transfer taxes on resale of any of the Securities by them, and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) The Company and each Selling Shareholder agree that, unless it has or shall have obtained the prior written consent of the Representative, and each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees with the Company and the Selling Shareholders that, unless it has or shall have obtained, as the case may be, the prior written consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute, or otherwise use, refer to or distribute, an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a "free writing prospectus" (as defined in Rule 405) required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433; provided that the prior written consent of the parties hereto shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Free Writing Prospectuses and any electronic road show included in Schedule III hereto, each furnished to the Representative before first use. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Representative or the Company is hereinafter referred to as a "Permitted Free Writing Prospectus." The Company agrees that (x) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and (y) it has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record keeping. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and agrees that it is not subject to any pending proceeding under Section 8A of the Act with respect to the offering (and will promptly notify the Company if any such proceeding against it is initiated during the period a prospectus is required by the Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule) in connection with any sale of Securities).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Each of the Company and Selling Shareholders agrees with each of the Underwriters to make any payments of consideration under this Agreement without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties or governmental charges whatsoever imposed by Canada (or any other jurisdiction where the Company is located or doing business) or by any department, agency or other political subdivision or taxing authority thereof ("Foreign Taxes"), unless the Company or the Selling Shareholder, as the case may be, is required by law to deduct or withhold such taxes, duties or charges. In the event that Foreign Taxes are deducted or withheld, the Company or the Selling Shareholder, as the case may be, shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by the Underwriters after such withholding or deduction will equal the amounts that would have been received if no withholding or deduction for Foreign Taxes had been made, except that no such additional amounts shall be paid to the extent that such Foreign Taxes (i) would not have been imposed (or would have been imposed at a reduced rate) but for any past, present or future connection of an Underwriter with the taxing jurisdiction under which such Foreign Taxes are imposed other than the mere entering into of this Agreement or receipt of payments hereunder, (ii) would not have been imposed (or would have been imposed at a reduced rate) but for the failure of an Underwriter to comply with any reasonable certification, identification or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality residence, identity or connection with the taxing jurisdiction of such Underwriter, if such compliance is timely requested by the Company, or (iii) are imposed in respect of services rendered in Canada by such Underwriter. The Company will promptly notify the Representative if the Company ceases to be a Foreign Private Issuer at any time prior to the later of completion of the distribution of Securities within the meaning of the Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriters against any documentary, stamp, registration or similar issuance tax, including any interest and penalties, on the sale, delivery and resale of the Securities and on the execution, performance and delivery of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) The Selling Shareholders will advise you promptly, and if requested by you, will confirm such advice in writing, during the period when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required by the Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule), of any change in the Selling Shareholder Information in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, any Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto relating to such Selling Shareholder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) The Selling Shareholders agree to deliver to the Underwriters prior to the Closing Date a properly completed and executed United States Treasury Department Form W-9, together with all required attachments, if any, of such Selling Shareholder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) It is understood that, subject to Sections 9 and 22 hereof, the Company shall bear, and the Selling Shareholders shall not be required to pay or to reimburse the Company for, all other expenses of the Selling Shareholders incurred in connection with the offering of the Securities, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel (including the fees and disbursements of a single outside counsel for the Selling Shareholders), Securities Act liability insurance if the Company so desires or if the Underwriters so require and the reasonable fees and expenses of the independent public accountants and any special expert retained by the Company in connection with the offering, and the expense of qualifying the Securities under state blue sky laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriters. The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Securities shall be subject to the accuracy in all material respects (except to the extent already qualified by materiality, in which case such obligations shall be subject to the accuracy in all respects) of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Selling Shareholders contained herein as of the Execution Time, the Closing Date and any settlement date pursuant to Section 4 hereof, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company and Selling Shareholders made in any certificates pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company and the Selling Shareholders in all material respects of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have. The Company shall not be liable under this Section 9 to any indemnified party regarding any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent is consented to by the Company, as applicable, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements in any Canadian Final Prospectus and U.S. Final Prospectus set forth in the ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth paragraphs under the heading "Underwriting" (collectively, the "Underwriter Information"), constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in any registration statement, U.S. Preliminary Prospectus, Canadian Preliminary Prospectus, Canadian Final Prospectus, U.S. Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any road show.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Selling Shareholder severally, and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act) the Company, each of the directors of the Company who signs the Registration Statement or Canadian Final Prospectus, each of the officers of the Company who signs the Registration Statement or Canadian Final Prospectus and each Underwriter, the directors, officers, selling agents and Affiliates of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter referred to in Section 9(a) above, but only with reference to written information provided by such Selling Shareholder furnished to the Company specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in Section 9(a) above, it being agreed and understood that the only such information furnished by such Selling Shareholder consists of the Selling Shareholder Information. The aggregate liability of each Selling Shareholder under Section 9 shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate net proceeds, before expenses, to such Selling Shareholder from the sale of the Securities sold by such Selling Shareholder hereunder (the "Selling Shareholder Proceeds"). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that such Selling Shareholder may otherwise have.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party (through the forfeiture of substantial rights or defenses) and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) above, except as provided in paragraph (f) below. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party's choice at the indemnifying party's expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party's election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest (based on the advice of counsel to the indemnified person); (ii) such action includes both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded (based on the advice of counsel to the indemnified person) that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. It is understood and agreed that the indemnifying person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified persons. Any such separate firm for any Underwriters, its Affiliates, directors, selling agents and officers and any control persons of such Underwriters shall be designated in writing by the Representative, any such separate firm for such Selling Shareholder shall be designated in writing by the Selling Shareholder, and any such separate firm for the Company and any control persons, officers or directors of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. In the event that any Underwriter, its Affiliates, directors, selling agents and officers or any control persons of such Underwriter are indemnified persons collectively entitled, in connection with a proceeding in a single jurisdiction, to the payment of fees and expenses of a single separate firm under this Section 9(e), and any such Underwriter, its Affiliates, directors, selling agents and officers or any control persons of such Underwriter cannot agree to a mutually acceptable separate firm to act as counsel thereto, then such separate firm for all such indemnified persons shall be designated in writing by the Representative. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim, action suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any statement as to, or any admission of, fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason (other than by virtue of the failure of an indemnified party to notify the indemnifying party of its right to indemnification pursuant to this subsection or subsection (a), (b), (c) or (d) above, where such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party (through the forfeiture of substantial rights or defenses) or any other limitation on indemnification set forth therein), the Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action) (collectively "Losses") to which the Company, the Selling Shareholders and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason or not permitted by applicable law, the Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by them, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company and the Selling Shareholder on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (f), in no event shall (i) any Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (ii) any Selling Shareholder be required to contribute any amount in excess of the Selling Shareholder Proceeds with respect to such Selling Shareholder less any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Section 9. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint. For purposes of this Section 9, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee, Affiliate and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company who signs the Registration Statement or Canadian Final Prospectus shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (f).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) [reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters, as the case may be, shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions that the amount of the Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate amount of the Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters, as applicable) the Securities that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate amount of the Securities that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of the Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the Company and the Selling Shareholders shall be entitled to a period of 36 hours within which to procure another party or parties reasonably satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters, as the case may be, to purchase no less than the amount of such unpurchased Securities that exceeds 10% of the amount thereof upon such terms herein set forth. If, however, the Company or the Selling Shareholders shall not have completed such arrangements within 72 hours after such default and the amount of unpurchased Securities exceeds 10% of the amount of such Securities to be purchased on such date, then this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Selling Shareholders or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 10, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Representative are necessary in the Registration Statement, Prospectuses or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company, any Selling Shareholder or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice given to the Company and the Selling Shareholders prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (i) there shall have occurred, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Package or the Prospectuses, any change, or development involving a prospective change, in the condition (financial or otherwise), business or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses (exclusive of any supplement thereto), the effect of which is, or would reasonably be expected to become, in the judgment of the Representative, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities as contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses (exclusive of any supplement thereto); (ii) trading in the SV Shares shall have been suspended by the Commission, any Canadian Securities Commission, the NYSE or the TSX or trading in any securities generally on the NYSE or TSX shall have been suspended or materially limited; (iii) there has been a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in the United States or Canada declared by the relevant authorities, or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or Canada; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States or Canada of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities as contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectuses (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers, the Selling Shareholders and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Selling Shareholders or the Company or any of the indemnified persons referred to in Section 9 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

Furthermore, each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters). Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or the Selling Shareholders, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. Moreover, each Selling Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that, although the Representative may be required or choose to provide certain Selling Shareholders with certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures in connection with the offering, the Representative and the other Underwriters are not making a recommendation to any Selling Shareholder to participate in the offering, enter into a "lock-up" agreement, or sell any SV Shares at the price determined in the offering, and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that the Representative or any Underwriter is making such a recommendation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. Integration.

Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders hereby represents and warrants that such authorized agent has accepted such appointment and has agreed to act as such authorized agent for service of process. Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders further agrees to take any and all action as may be necessary to maintain such designation and appointment of such authorized agent in full force and effect for a period of seven years from the date of this Agreement.

The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Company and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term "rate of exchange" shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the relevant currency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23. To the extent that the Company or any Selling Shareholder has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from jurisdiction of any court of (i) Canada, or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) the United States or the State of New York, or (iii) any jurisdiction in which it owns or leases property or assets or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution, set-off or otherwise) with respect to itself or its respective property and assets or this Agreement, each of the Company and Selling Shareholders hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing also applies to any amendment, extension or renewal of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28. The Company and Selling Shareholders understand that a portion of the SV Shares may be offered and sold in the Canadian Qualifying Jurisdictions pursuant to the Canadian Final Prospectus by the Canadian broker-dealer affiliates of the Underwriter (the "Canadian Underwriter"). The term Underwriters shall include the Canadian Underwriter. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Canadian Underwriter agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to sell such SV Shares in the Canadian Qualifying Jurisdictions. In addition, any SV Shares sold by the Underwriters to the Company will be so sold by the Canadian Underwriter and will be purchased by the Canadian Underwriter directly from the Selling Shareholders that are residents of Canada for purposes of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada). In connection with the foregoing, the Company agrees to make an eligible dividend designation pursuant to subsection 89(14) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) to the extent it does not result in a tax pursuant to Part III.1 of such Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

Nothing in this letter agreement shall prevent the undersigned from making a demand for, or exercising any right with respect to, the registration of the undersigned's Shares, except for any such demand or any such exercise that is publicly disclosed (or required to be publicly disclosed) by the undersigned or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the expiration of this letter agreement; *provided* that in no event shall the Company be obligated to take an action in violation of Section 5(i) of the Underwriting Agreement.

If for any reason the Underwriting Agreement shall be terminated prior to the Closing Date (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement), the agreement set forth above shall likewise be terminated.

If the Representative waives or terminates any of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Shares or Related Securities, with respect to any of the Shares or Related Securities of any Major Holder (as defined below) (a "Triggering Release"), the provisions of this letter agreement shall be waived or terminated, as applicable, to the same extent and on the same terms with respect to the same pro rata percentage of Shares or Related Securities of the undersigned as the percentage of Shares or Related Securities being released in the Triggering Release represent with respect to the securities held by the applicable Major Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no waiver or termination will constitute a Triggering Release, if (i) the aggregate number of Shares or Related Securities affected by all such discretionary releases, waivers, or terminations, in whole or in part to any and all Major Holders (whether in one or multiple releases), is less than or equal to 1.0% of the fully-diluted capitalization of the Company as measured immediately prior to the consummation of the Offering, (ii) the release is effective solely to permit a transfer not involving a disposition for value (not otherwise permitted by this letter agreement) and the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this letter agreement, or (iii) such waiver or termination, in full or in part, is in connection with any underwritten public offering, whether or not such offering or sale is wholly or partially a secondary offering of Shares or Related Securities during the lock-up period (a "Follow-on Offering"); provided that the undersigned, to the extent the undersigned has a contractual right to demand or require the registration of the undersigned's Shares or Related Securities or otherwise "piggyback" on a registration statement filed by the Company for the offer and sale of its Shares, (a) shall be offered the opportunity to participate on a pro rata basis consistent with such contractual rights in such Follow-on Offering and on pricing terms that are no less favorable than the terms of the Follow-on Offering or (b) such contractual rights are waived pursuant to the terms thereof; and in the event any underwriters make the determination to cut back the number of securities to be sold by stockholders in the Follow-on Offering, such cut back shall be on a basis consistent with such contractual rights. For purposes of determining record or beneficial ownership of a stockholder, all Shares or Related Securities held by investment funds or trusts affiliated with such stockholder shall be aggregated. For purposes of this letter agreement, each of the following persons is a "Major Holder": each (x) officer named in the Prospectus, (y) director named in the Prospectus, or (z) record or beneficial owner of 1.0% or more of the Shares prior to the Offering (calculated on an as-converted, fully-diluted basis and as of the close of business on the date set forth on the final prospectus used to sell the Shares).

For the purposes of this letter agreement, "immediate family" shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters have not provided any recommendation or investment advice nor have the Underwriters solicited any action from the undersigned with respect to the Offering and the undersigned has consulted their own legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent deemed appropriate. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that, although the Underwriters may be required or choose to provide certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures to you in connection with the Offering, the Underwriters are not making a recommendation to you to participate in the Offering, enter into this letter agreement, or sell any Shares at the price determined in the Offering, and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that the Underwriters are making such a recommendation.

This letter agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
