#### Indentures Governing the New Notes
Pursuant to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations, the New CAD Notes were issued under and are governed by an indenture dated November 7, 2025 (the "<u>CAD Indenture</u>"), among the Partnership, certain subsidiary guarantors of the Partnership (the "<u>Guarantors</u>"), U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as U.S. trustee (the "<u>SUN Trustee</u>"), and Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as Canadian trustee, and the New USD Notes were issued under and are governed by an indenture dated November 7, 2025 (the "<u>USD Indenture</u>" and, collectively with the CAD Indenture, the "<u>Indentures</u>"), among the Partnership, the Guarantors and the SUN Trustee, as trustee.

Each series of New Notes has substantially identical interest rate, interest payment dates, maturity date and redemption terms as the corresponding series of PKI Notes. The first interest payment on any New Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI Notes tendered in exchange therefor so that a tendering Eligible Holder (as defined in the attached press release) will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations; provided that the amount of accrued and unpaid interest shall only be equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of PKI Notes equal to the aggregate principal amount of New Notes an Eligible Holder receives.

The New Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Partnership and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of the Partnership's current subsidiaries that guarantee its obligations under the Partnership's revolving credit facility, as well as by certain of its future subsidiaries. The New Notes and related guarantees are unsecured and rank equally with all of the Partnership's and each Guarantor's existing and future senior obligations. The New Notes and related guarantees are senior in right of payment to all of the Partnership's and each Guarantor's future indebtedness and other obligations that are, by their terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the New Notes and guarantees. The New Notes and related guarantees are effectively subordinated to the Partnership's and each Guarantor's future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and structurally subordinated to all obligations, including trade payables, of the Partnership's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the New Notes.

The Partnership may, at its option, redeem some or all of the New USD 2032 Notes at any time on or after August 15, 2027 at the redemption prices specified in the USD Indenture. Prior to such time, the Partnership may redeem some or all of the New USD 2032 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the New USD 2032 Notes redeemed, plus a customary "make-whole premium" and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, before August 15, 2027, the Partnership may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the New USD 2032 Notes with an amount of cash not greater than net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at the redemption prices specified in the USD Indenture.

The Partnership may, at its option, redeem some or all of the New Notes (other than the New USD 2032 Notes) at any time at the redemption prices, with respect to each series, specified in the Indentures.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Indentures), which occurrence (other than one involving the adoption of a plan relating to liquidation or dissolution) is followed by a ratings decline within 60 days after the consummation of the transaction, each holder of the New Notes may require the Partnership to repurchase all or a portion of the holder's New Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the New Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

The Indentures contain customary events of default (each an "<u>Event of Default</u>"), with respect to each series of the New Notes, including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the New Notes of the applicable series;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) default in the payment when due (at stated maturity, upon optional or mandatory redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the New Notes of that series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) failure by the Partnership or any Guarantor to comply with their obligations to make or consummate a Change of Control offer or to comply with any of their agreements or covenants relating to merger, consolidation or sale of assets; provided that such failure (other than one involving failure to make or consummate a Change of Control offer) will not constitute an Event of Default for 30 days if such failure is capable of cure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) failure by the Partnership for 180 days after notice by the SUN Trustee or holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the New Notes of the applicable series then outstanding to comply with its obligations to furnish the holders of the New Notes of such series and the SUN Trustee certain reports;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) failure by the Partnership or any Guarantor for 60 days after written notice by the SUN Trustee or holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the New Notes of the applicable series then outstanding to comply with any of its other agreements in the respective Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed of the Partnership or any Guarantor (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Partnership or any Guarantor) whether the indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of the Indenture, if that default (a) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such indebtedness on the date of the default (a "<u>Payment Default</u>") or (b) results in the acceleration of such indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any of the indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $100.0 million or more; provided, however, that if, (i) any such Payment Default is cured or waived, (ii) any such acceleration is rescinded or (iii) such indebtedness is repaid during the ten business day period commencing upon the end of any applicable grace period for such Payment Default or the occurrence of such acceleration, as applicable, any default or Event of Default (but not any acceleration of the New Notes) caused by such Payment Default or acceleration shall automatically be rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment, decree or applicable law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) except as permitted under the Indentures, any guarantee is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor, or any person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its guarantee; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in the Indentures with respect to the Partnership or any of the Partnership's significant subsidiaries or any group of the Partnership's subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the SUN Trustee or the holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding New Notes of a series may declare the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the New Notes of that series to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Partnership or any of the Partnership's significant subsidiaries or any group of the Partnership's subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary, occurs and is continuing, all outstanding New Notes of each series will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice on the part of the SUN Trustee or any holders of the New Notes of such series. Under certain circumstances, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding New Notes of either series may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the New Notes of such series and its consequences.

The above descriptions of the PKI Amending Supplemental Indentures, the Indentures, the New Notes and the guarantees are not complete and are qualified in their entireties by reference to the full text of the PKI Amending Supplemental Indentures, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.3, 4.6, 4.8, 4.11, 4.14, 4.17 and 4.20, respectively, and the Indentures, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.21 and 4.22, respectively, each of which is incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.

On November 5, 2025, Sunoco announced the expiration and final results of its previously announced Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations to adopt the Proposed Amendments to the PKI Indentures, commenced by Sunoco on October 6, 2025. The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 4, 2025.

The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations were made pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the confidential exchange offer memorandum and consent solicitation statement for the PKI CAD Notes, dated as of October 6, 2025 (the "<u>CAD Exchange Offer Memorandum</u>"), and the confidential exchange offer memorandum and consent solicitation statement for the PKI USD Notes, dated as of October 6, 2025 (the "<u>USD Exchange Offer Memorandum</u>" and collectively with the CAD Exchange Offer Memorandum, the "<u>Exchange Offer Memoranda</u>"), each as amended by Sunoco's press release dated October 21, 2025.

As previously announced on October 21, 2025, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 20, 2025, the requisite number of consents were received to adopt the Proposed Amendments with respect to each outstanding series of PKI Notes. Eligible Holders may no longer withdraw tendered PKI Notes or revoke consents, except where required by applicable law. On November 7, 2025, Parkland executed the PKI Amending Supplemental Indentures, which become operative upon the Settlement Date.

A copy of the Partnership's press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or purchase, or a solicitation of an offer to sell or purchase, or the solicitation of tenders or consents with respect to, any security. No offer, solicitation, purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful. The Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations are being made solely pursuant to the Exchange Offer Memoranda and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.

#### Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In this context, forward-looking statements often address future business and financial events, conditions, expectations, plans or ambitions, and often include, but are not limited to, words such as "believe," "expect," "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "seek," "see," "target" or similar expressions, or variations or negatives of these words, but not all forward-looking statements include such words. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed transaction and the anticipated benefits thereof. All such forward-looking statements are based upon current plans, estimates, expectations and ambitions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, many of which are beyond the control of Sunoco that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: the ability of Sunoco to integrate the business of Parkland successfully and to achieve anticipated synergies and value creation; the tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, prospects, business and management strategies for the management, expansion and growth of the combined company's operations, including the possibility that any of the anticipated benefits of the transaction will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; potential litigation relating to the transaction that could be instituted against Sunoco or its directors; the risk that disruptions from the transaction will harm Sunoco's business, including current plans and operations and that

------

management's time and attention will be diverted on transaction-related issues; potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships, including with employees, suppliers, customers, competitors or credit rating agencies, resulting from the completion of the transaction; rating agency actions and Sunoco's ability to access short-and long-term debt markets on a timely and affordable basis; dilution caused by Sunoco's issuance of additional units representing limited partner interests in connection with the transaction; fees, costs and expenses and the possibility that the transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated; and those risks described (i) under the heading "Risk Factors" in the management information circular and proxy statement with respect to the Parkland Acquisition, as filed on the System for Electronic Data Analysis and Retrieval + in Canada (SEDAR+) and available on Parkland's website at *http://www.parkland.ca*, (ii) under the headings "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors" in Parkland's current Annual Information Form dated March 5, 2025, and under the headings "Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors" included in the Q4 2024 Management's Discussion and Analysis dated March 5, 2025, in the Q1 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis dated May 5, 2025, in the Q2 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis dated August 5, 2025, and in the Q3 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis dated October 27, 2025, each as filed on the System for Electronic Data Analysis and Retrieval + in Canada (SEDAR+) and available on Parkland's website at *http://www.parkland.ca*, (iii) in Item 1A of Sunoco's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("<u>SEC</u>") on February 14, 2025, and (iv) in Item 1A of Sunoco's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on May 8, 2025, August 7, 2025 and November 6, 2025. Those disclosures are incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K. While the list of factors presented here is considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this forward-looking information, which is as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Sunoco and Parkland do not intend to update these statements unless required by the securities laws to do so, and Sunoco and Parkland undertake no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to any such forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

**1.13** **Trust Indenture Legislation.** 

(a) In this Indenture, the term "**Trust Indenture Legislation**" means the provisions, if any, of
any statute of Canada or a province thereof, and of regulations under any such statute, relating to trust indentures and to the rights, duties, and obligations of trustees under trust indentures and of Persons issuing debt obligations under trust
indentures, to the extent that such provisions are at the time in force and applicable to this Indenture.

(b) If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies, or conflicts with a mandatory
requirement of Trust Indenture Legislation, such mandatory requirement shall prevail. The Issuer, the Trustee, and each Holder shall at all times, in relation to this Indenture and any action to be taken hereunder, observe and comply with and be
entitled to the benefits of Trust Indenture Legislation, as applicable.

**1.14** **Conversion of Currency** 

(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due under this
Indenture to the Holder from another currency to Canadian dollars, the Issuer and each Guarantor agree, and each Holder by holding a Note will be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and they may effectively
do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase Canadian dollars with such other currency in Toronto, Ontario on the Business Day preceding the day on which final
judgment is given.

(b) The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a
currency (the "**judgment currency**") other than Canadian dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in such judgment
currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Canadian dollars with the judgment currency. If the amount of the Canadian dollars so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or the
Trustee in the judgment currency (as determined in the manner set forth in Section 1.14(a)), as the case may be, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, to indemnify the Holder and the Trustee, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the Canadian dollars so purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, such
Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, will pay the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor such excess; *provided* that such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a Default
under the Notes or this Indenture has occurred and is continuing or if the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have failed to pay any Holder any amounts then due and payable under such Note or this Indenture, in which case such excess may be applied by
such Holder or the Trustee to such obligations.

------

**1.15 Accounting Terms; Changes in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles** 

(a) If there occurs a material change in GAAP after the Issue Date, and such change would require disclosure under
GAAP in the financial statements of the Issuer and would cause an amount required to be determined for the purposes of any of the financial calculations or financial terms under this Indenture (each a "**Financial Term**") to be
materially different than the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such change, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such change (an "**Accounting Change** "). Such notice (an "**Accounting Change Notice**") shall describe the nature of the Accounting Change, its effect on the Issuer's current and immediately prior year's financial statements in accordance with GAAP and state whether the Issuer desires to revise the method
of calculating the applicable Financial Term (including the revision of any of the defined terms used in the determination of such Financial Term) in order that amounts determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change and the revised method
of calculating such Financial Term will approximate the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such Accounting Change and without giving effect to the revised method of calculating such Financial Term. The Accounting Change Notice
shall be delivered to the Trustee within 90 days of the end of the fiscal quarter in which the Accounting Change is implemented or, if such Accounting Change is implemented in the fourth fiscal quarter or in respect of an entire fiscal year, within
120 days of the end of such period. Promptly after receipt from the Issuer of an Accounting Change Notice the Trustee shall deliver to each Holder a copy of such notice.

(b) If the Issuer so indicates that it wishes to revise the method of calculating the Financial Term, the Issuer
shall in good faith provide to the Trustee the revised method of calculating the Financial Term within 90 days of the Accounting Change Notice and such revised method shall take effect from the date of the Accounting Change Notice. For certainty, if
no notice of a desire to revise the method of calculating the Financial Term in respect of an Accounting Change is given by the Issuer within the applicable time period described above, the method of calculating the Financial Term shall not be
revised in response to such Accounting Change and all amounts to be determined pursuant to the Financial Term shall be determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change.

**ARTICLE 2** 

**<u>THE NOTES</u>**

**2.1** **Issue and Designation of Notes; Ranking** 

In accordance with this Indenture, the Issuer is authorized to issue a series of Notes designated "6.00% Senior Notes due 2028". The Notes may be issued from time to time, subject to the conditions and limitations in this Indenture, shall be dated on the date of issue thereof, and shall be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes will become due and payable, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on June

------

23, 2028. Each Note will rank equal in right of payment with each other Note (regardless of their actual date or terms of issue) and, subject to statutory preferred exceptions, will rank senior in right of payment to all present and future Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer and equal in right of payment to all of the Issuer's other present and future Indebtedness that is not expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes other than any Indebtedness that ranks senior to the Notes by operation of law.

**2.2** **Additional Notes** 

The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be issued under this Indenture on the Issue Date will consist of and initially be limited to $400,000,000 in lawful money of Canada. The Issuer shall be entitled, subject to Section 5.10, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture which shall have identical terms as the Notes issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price and the first Interest Payment Date, and which shall bear the same designation and designating letters as those applied to such previous issue and will be numbered consecutively upwards in respect of such denominations of Notes in like manner and following the numbers of the Notes of such previous issue. The Notes issued on the date hereof, and any Additional Notes, shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture (including, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase). With respect to any Additional Notes, the Issuer shall set forth in an Officers' Certificate, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture, and the Holder(s), issue date and first Interest Payment Date of such Additional Notes.

**2.3** **Interest** 

The Notes will bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at the rate of 6.00% per annum in accordance with Section 2.15, compounded semi-annually and payable in arrears in respect of each Interest Period (after, as well as before, Maturity, default and judgment, with overdue interest at the same rate) on each Interest Payment Date in accordance with Section 2.18. The first Interest Payment Date for the Initial Notes will be December 23, 2020, and will be in an amount equal to $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes. Interest on the Notes shall be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; provided that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day.

**2.4** **Currency of Payment** 

The principal of, and interest and Premium (if any) on, the Notes will be payable in Canadian dollars.

**2.5** **Additional Amounts** 

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer under or with respect to the Notes or by or on behalf of any
Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee, will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Relevant Taxing Authority, unless required by law or the interpretation or administration
thereof. If the Issuer or a Guarantor is obligated to withhold or deduct any amount on account of taxes imposed by any Relevant Taxing Authority from any payment made with respect to the Notes, the Issuer or such Guarantor will:

------

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with the applicable
law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) subject to the limitations below, pay to each Holder, as additional interest, such additional amounts
(" **Additional Amounts**") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such
taxes had not been withheld or deducted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) furnish to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, within 60 days after the date payment of any taxes are
due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of an official receipt of the Relevant Taxing Authority for all amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to applicable law, or if such receipts are not obtainable, other evidence of payment by the Issuer
or such Guarantor of those taxes; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) at least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable, deliver to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Additional Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustee may request to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

(b) Notwithstanding 2.5(a), neither the Issuer nor a Guarantor will pay Additional Amounts with respect to a
payment made to any Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (an "**Excluded Holder** "):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) with which the Issuer, such Guarantor or any transferee to whom a Note is assigned or otherwise transferred,
does not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada)) at the time of making such payment;

(ii) that is a "specified non-resident shareholder" of the
Issuer or such Guarantor or a non-resident person who does not deal at arm's length with a specified shareholder of the Issuer, both for the purposes of subsection 18(5) of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada);

(iii) which is subject to such taxes by reason of the Holder or the beneficial owner being a resident, domicile or
national of, or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some present or former connection with, Canada or any province or territory thereof otherwise than by the mere
acquisition, holding, disposition or enforcement of the Notes or the receipt of payments thereunder;

------

(iv) for or on account of any taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or
beneficial owner of the Notes to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and such Holder or beneficial owner is legally
eligible to comply with, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to enable the
Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Notes or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be delivered
within 60 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

(v) for or on account of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, wealth or net worth, goods and services, harmonized
sales, transfer, capital gains, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(vi) for or on account of any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by
withholding from payments under or with respect to the Notes (other than taxes payable pursuant to Regulation 803 of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada), or any similar successor provision);

(vii) where the payment could have been made without deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had
presented the Note for payment within 30 days after the date on which such payment or such Note became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later;

(viii) if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to
the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the relevant taxing jurisdiction for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settler with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial
owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

(ix) that is imposed under FATCA; or

(x) any combination of (i) through (ix).

(c) Any reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, Premium, if any, interest, purchase price,
redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The
Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

(d) The Issuer and each Guarantor will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder or
beneficial owner of a Note (other than an Excluded Holder) and upon written request reimburse each such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note for the amount of (i) any taxes so levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such
Holder or beneficial owner of a Note as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes, and (ii) any taxes levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note with respect to any
reimbursement under (i) above, but excluding any such taxes with respect to which such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note is an Excluded Holder or any income or profits taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority.

**2.6** **Form of Notes** 

(a) The Notes and the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form set out in
Appendix A hereto, together with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture. Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or
usage.

(b) The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this
Indenture and the Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions
of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

(c) Notes may be typed, engraved, printed, lithographed or reproduced in a different form, or partly in one form
and partly in another, as the Issuer may determine. The execution of any such Notes by the Issuer and the authentication by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.7 of any such Notes will be conclusive evidence that such Notes are Notes
authorized by this Indenture.

**2.7** **Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes** 

(a) All Notes shall be signed (either manually or by electronic or facsimile signature) by any two authorized
directors or officers of the Issuer, holding office at the time of signing. An electronic or facsimile signature upon a Note shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the signature of the individual whose signature it purports to be.
Notwithstanding that any individual whose signature, either manual or in facsimile or other electronic means, appears on a Note as a director or officer may no longer hold such office at the date of the Note or at the date of the authentication and
delivery thereof, such Note shall be valid and binding upon the Issuer and the Holder thereof shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

(b) No Notes will be entitled to any right or benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose unless such Notes have been authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee substantially in the form provided for herein. Such authentication upon any Notes will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Notes have been duly
authenticated, issued and delivered and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits hereof.

(c) Subject to the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee shall from time to time authenticate one or more Notes
(including Global Notes) for original issue on the issue date for such Notes or otherwise to permit transfers in accordance with Section 3.6 upon and in accordance with an Issuer Order (an "**Authentication Order** "), without the
Trustee receiving any consideration therefor. Each such Authentication Order shall specify the principal amount of such Notes to be authenticated and the date on which such Notes are to be authenticated.

------

The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount specified in the Authentication Orders provided in respect of original issues of Notes except as provided in Section 2.14. Except as provided in Section 5.10, there is no limit on the amount of Notes that may be issued hereunder.

(d) The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes will not be construed as a representation
or warranty of the Trustee as to the validity of this Indenture or of any Notes or their issuance (except the due authentication thereof by the Trustee) or as to the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under this Indenture or any Notes and
the Trustee will be in no respect liable or answerable for the use made of the proceeds of such Notes. The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes issued under this Indenture will constitute a representation and warranty by
the Trustee that such Notes have been duly authenticated by and on behalf of the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture.

**2.8** **Appointment of Trustee and Depositary** 

(a) The Trustee will be the trustee for the Notes, subject to Article 10.

exchange.

(b) The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more
additional paying agents for the Notes in such other locations as it shall determine. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term "Paying Agent" includes any additional
paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Registrar or Paying Agent which is not a party to this Indenture. The Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar for the Notes.

(c) The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee at its corporate office in Calgary, Alberta to act as the Registrar,
transfer agent, authentication agent and Paying Agent with respect to the Notes and appoints Computershare Trust Company N.A., in Golden, Colorado as a co-transfer agent.

**2.10** **Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust** 

The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent, other than the Trustee, to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will, and the Trustee when acting as Paying Agent agrees that it will, hold in trust, for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, Premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the

------

Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any money disbursed by it. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

**2.11** **Book Entry Only Notes** 

(a) Subject to Section 3.2(b) and the provisions of the Notes, Notes shall be issued as a Book Entry Only
Notes represented by a Global Note. Each Global Note authenticated in accordance with this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depository designated for such Global Note or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depository or a nominee
thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Note shall constitute a single Note for all purposes of this Indenture. Beneficial interests in a Global Note will not be shown on the register or the records maintained by the Depository but will
be represented through book entry accounts of Participants on behalf of the Beneficial Holders of such Global Note in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository. None of the Issuer or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or
liability for any aspects of the records relating to or payments made by any Depository on account of the beneficial interest in any Global Notes or for maintaining, reviewing or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests therein.
Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, Beneficial Holders of Global Notes shall not be entitled to have Notes registered in their names, shall not receive or be entitled to receive Definitive Notes and shall not be considered owners or
holders thereof under this Indenture. Nothing herein shall prevent the Beneficial Holders from voting such Global Notes using duly executed proxies.

(b) Every Note authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of a Global Note, or in exchange for or in
lieu of a Global Note or any portion thereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, unless such Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository for such Global Notes or a nominee
thereof.

**2.12** **Global Notes** 

Notes issued to a Depository in the form of Global Notes shall be subject to the following in addition to the provisions of Section 3.2, unless and until Definitive Notes have been issued to Beneficial Holders pursuant to Section 3.2(b):

(a) the Trustee may deal with such Depository for all purposes as the sole holder of the Notes and as the
authorized representative of the Beneficial Holders of such Notes;

(b) the rights of the Beneficial Holders of such Notes shall be exercised only through such Depository and the
rights of Beneficial Holders shall be limited to those established by applicable law and agreements between the Depository and the Participants and between such Participants and Beneficial Holders, and must be exercised through a Participant in
accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository;

------

(c) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of
Holders evidencing a specified percentage of the outstanding Notes, the Depository shall be deemed to be counted in that percentage to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Beneficial Holders or Participants;

(d) such Depository will make book-entry transfers among the direct Participants of such Depository and will
receive and transmit distributions of principal, Premium and interest on the Notes to such direct Participants for subsequent payment to the Beneficial Holders thereof;

(e) the direct Participants of such Depository shall have no rights under this Indenture or under or with respect
to any of the Notes held on their behalf by such Depository, and such Depository may be treated by the Trustee and its agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the Notes represented by such Global Notes for all purposes
whatsoever; and

(f) whenever a notice or other communication is required to be provided to Holders, the Trustee shall provide all
such notices and communications to the Depository for subsequent delivery of such notices and communications to the Beneficial Holders in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation and the procedures of the Depository.

**2.13** **Interim Notes** 

Pending the delivery of Definitive Notes to the Trustee, the Issuer may issue and the Trustee authenticate in lieu thereof (but subject to the same provisions, conditions and limitations as set forth in this Indenture) interim printed, mimeographed or typewriter Notes in such forms and in such denominations and signed in such manner as provided herein, entitling the holders thereof to Definitive Notes when the same are ready for delivery; or the Issuer may execute and deliver to the Trustee and the Trustee authenticate a temporary Note for the whole principal amount of Notes then authorized to be issued hereunder and thereupon the Trustee may issue its own interim certificates in such form and in such amounts, not exceeding in the aggregate the principal amount of the temporary Note so delivered to it, as the Issuer and the Trustee may approve entitling the holders thereof to Definitive Notes when the same are ready for delivery; and, when so issued and certified, such interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates shall, for all purposes but without duplication, rank in respect of this Indenture equally with Notes duly issued hereunder and, pending the exchange thereof for Definitive Notes, the holders of the interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates shall be deemed without duplication to be Holders and entitled to the benefit of this Indenture to the same extent and in the same manner as though the said exchange had actually been made. Forthwith after the Issuer shall have delivered the Definitive Notes to the Trustee, the Trustee shall call in for exchange all temporary or interim Notes or certificates that shall have been issued and forthwith after such exchange shall cancel the same. No charge shall be made by the Issuer or the Trustee to the holders of such interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates for the exchange thereof. All interest paid upon interim or temporary Notes or certificates shall be noted thereon as a condition precedent to such payment unless paid by cheque to the registered holders thereof.

------

**2.14** **Mutilation, Loss, Theft or Destruction** 

In case any of the Notes issued hereunder shall become mutilated or be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Issuer, in its discretion, may issue, and thereupon the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Note, or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, in lieu of and in substitution for the same, and the substituted Note shall be in a form approved by the Trustee and shall entitle the Holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture and shall rank equally in accordance with its terms with all other Notes issued or to be issued hereunder. In case of loss, theft or destruction the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Trustee such evidence of the loss, theft or destruction of the Note as shall be satisfactory to them in their discretion and shall also furnish an indemnity and surety bond satisfactory to them in their discretion. The applicant shall pay all reasonable expenses incidental to the issuance of any substituted Note.

**2.15 Concerning Interest** 

(a) All Notes issued hereunder, whether originally or upon exchange or in substitution for previously issued Notes
(including for certainty Notes issued under Sections 2.13 and 2.14), shall accrue and bear interest (i) from and including their respective issue date, or (ii) from and including the last Interest Payment Date therefor to which interest
shall have been paid or made available for payment on such outstanding Notes, whichever shall be the later, in all cases, to and excluding the next Interest Payment Date therefor.

(b) Subject to accrual of any interest on unpaid interest from time to time, interest on a Note will cease to
accrue from the Maturity of such Note (including, for certainty, if such Note was called for redemption, the Redemption Date); unless upon due presentation and surrender of such Note for payment on or after the Maturity thereof, such payment is
improperly withheld or refused.

(c) If the date for payment of any amount of principal, Premium or interest in respect of a Note is not a Business
Day at the place of payment, then payment thereof will be made on the next Business Day and the Holder of such Note will not be entitled to any further interest on such principal, or to any interest on such interest, Premium or other amount so
payable, in respect of the period from the date for payment to such next Business Day.

(g) The Holder of any Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment
Date shall be entitled to receive the interest, if any, payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Note subsequent to such Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, except if and to the extent
the Issuer shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, in which case such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Holder of such Note as at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be not
less than two Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of all affected Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date.

(h) Wherever in this Indenture or any Note there is mention, in any context, of the payment of interest, such
mention is deemed to include the payment of interest on amounts in default to the extent that, in such context, such interest is, was or would be payable pursuant to this Indenture or the Note, and express mention of interest on amounts in default
in any of the provisions of this Indenture will not be construed as excluding such interest in those provisions of this Indenture where such express mention is not made.

------

(i) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture or the terms of any Note, interest on the Notes shall
be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; provided that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and the
actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day. For purposes of disclosure under the *Interest Act* (Canada), whenever interest is calculated under a Note on the basis of a year which contains fewer days
than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as an annual rate by multiplying such rate of interest by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such calendar
year, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the deemed year.

**2.16** **Payments of Amounts Due on Maturity** 

(a) Subject to Section 2.16(b), the following provisions shall apply to all Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of fully registered Notes, the Issuer shall establish and maintain with the Paying Agent a Maturity
Account for the Notes. On or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for the Notes, the Issuer shall deposit in the applicable Maturity Account by wire transfer or certified cheque an amount sufficient to
pay all amounts payable in respect of the outstanding Notes (less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Paying Agent will pay to each Holder of such Notes entitled to receive payment, the principal amount of, and
Premium (if any) on, such Notes, upon surrender of such Notes to the Paying Agent or at any branch of the Trustee designated for such purpose from time to time by the Issuer and the Trustee. The deposit or making available of such amounts into the
applicable Maturity Account will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the deposit or making available of funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any taxes deducted
or withheld as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture to such extent and such Holder will have no other right than to receive out of the money so deposited or made available the amount to
which it is entitled. Failure to make a deposit or make funds available as required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(i) will constitute Default in payment on the Notes in respect of which the deposit or making available of funds was
required to have been made; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Notes issued and outstanding in the form of or represented by Global Notes, on or before
11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for such Notes, the Issuer shall deliver to the Depository by electronic funds transfer an amount sufficient to pay the amount payable in respect of such Global Notes
(less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Issuer shall pay to the Depository the principal amount of, and

------

Premium (if any) on, such Global Notes, against receipt of the relevant Global Notes. The delivery of such electronic funds to the Depository will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the electronic funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any Taxes deducted or withheld as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture unless such electronic funds transfer is not received. Failure to make delivery of funds available as required pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) will constitute Default in payment on the Notes in respect of which the delivery or making available of funds was required to have been made.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 2.16(a), all payments in excess of $25,000,000 (or such other amount as determined
from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to disburse funds pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(i) unless it
has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable on the applicable date of Maturity. The Paying Agent shall, if it accepts any funds
received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

**2.17** **Legends on Notes** 

(a) Unless otherwise provided in the Notes, Notes will not be registered under any United States federal or state
securities laws, and any Notes issued and sold in the United States or to, or for the account of benefit of a U.S. Person will be issued and sold only to Persons who are QIBs within the meaning of, and in reliance on, Rule 144A under the U.S.
Securities Act, as well as all Notes issued in exchange for or in substitution of the foregoing securities, and shall bear, unless otherwise directed by the Issuer, a legend substantially in the following form (the "**144A U.S. Legend** "):

"THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF PARKLAND CORPORATION (THE "ISSUER") THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE ISSUER, (B) INSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT ("RULE 144A") TO A PERSON IT REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A) THAT PURCHASES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER AND TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A, (C) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (D) PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, OR (E) PURSUANT TO ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION, AND IN THE CASE OF (D) OR (E), AFTER AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER HAS BEEN FURNISHED TO THE ISSUER.

------

IF THESE SECURITIES ARE BEING SOLD IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, A NEW CERTIFICATE BEARING NO LEGEND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND A DULY EXECUTED DECLARATION (AND, IF REQUIRED BY COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL), IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA AND THE ISSUER, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE SALE OF THESE SECURITIES IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT."

In addition, the Trustee understands and acknowledges that, subject to Section 3.6, Notes will also bear the Canadian Private Placement Legend until such legend is no longer required under Applicable Securities Legislation.

(b) The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the
public under Applicable Securities Legislation. The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes, and each Note issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, will bear a legend in substantially the following form (the
" **Canadian Private Placement Legend**") until the legend is no longer required under Applicable Securities Legislation:

"UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE MUST NOT TRADE THIS NOTE BEFORE [*INSERT DATE WHICH IS FOUR MONTHS AND A DAY AFTER ISSUE DATE*]"

(c) Each Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, subject to such modification as
required by the applicable Depository (the "**Global Note Legend** "):

"THIS NOTE IS A GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREIN REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO OR EXCHANGED FOR NOTES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF AND NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE. EVERY NOTE AUTHENTICATED AND DELIVERED UPON REGISTRATION OF, TRANSFER OF, OR IN EXCHANGE FOR, OR IN LIEU OF, THIS NOTE SHALL BE A GLOBAL NOTE SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, EXCEPT IN SUCH LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.

------

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

(d) Prior to the issuance of Notes, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, concerning which Notes are to
be certificated and are to bear the legend or legends described in this Section 2.17.

**2.18** **Payment of Interest** 

(a) As interest becomes due on each fully registered Note (except on redemption thereof, when interest may at the
option of the Issuer be paid upon surrender of such Note), the Issuer, either directly or through the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, shall send or forward by prepaid ordinary mail, electronic transfer of funds or such other means as may be
agreed to by the Trustee, payment of such interest including any Additional Amounts (less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom) to the order of the Holder of such Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately
preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date and addressed to the Holder at the Holder's last address appearing on the register (or in the case of joint Holders, to such address of one of the joint Holders), unless such Holder otherwise
directs. If payment is made by cheque, such cheque shall be forwarded at least two days prior to each Interest Payment Date and if payment is made by other means (such as electronic transfer of funds, *provided* the Trustee must receive
confirmation of receipt of funds prior to being able to wire funds to Holders), such payment shall be made in a manner whereby the Holder receives credit for such payment on the Interest Payment Date. The mailing of such cheque or the making of such
payment by other means shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby, plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld as aforesaid, satisfy and discharge all liability for interest including any Additional Amounts on such Note to such
extent, unless in the case of payment by cheque, such cheque is not paid at par on presentation. In the event of non-receipt of any cheque for or other payment of interest by the Person to whom it is so sent
as aforesaid, the Issuer shall issue to such Person a replacement cheque or other payment for a like amount upon being furnished with such evidence of non-receipt as it shall reasonably require and upon being
indemnified to its satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuer is prevented by circumstances beyond its control (including, without limitation, any interruption in mail service) from making payment of any interest due on any Note in
the manner provided above, the Issuer may make payment of such interest or make such interest available for payment in any other manner acceptable to the Trustee with the same effect

------

as though payment had been made in the manner provided above. If payment is made through the Trustee, by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related Interest Payment Date for a Note or to the date of mailing the cheques for the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, whichever is earlier, the Issuer shall deliver sufficient funds to the Trustee by electronic transfer or certified cheque or make such other arrangements for the provision of funds as may be agreeable between the Trustee and the Issuer in order to effect such interest payment hereunder.

(b) So long as the Notes or any portion thereof are issued in the form of or represented by a Global Note, then all
payments of interest on such Global Note shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related Interest Payment Date by electronic funds transfer made payable to the Depository or its nominee for subsequent
payment to Beneficial Holders of the applicable interests in that Global Note, unless the Issuer and the Depository otherwise agree.

(c) Notwithstanding Sections 2.18(a) and 2.18(b), all payments in excess of $25,000,000 (or such other amount as
determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor Paying Agent, as applicable, shall have any obligation to disburse funds in respect of any Note
pursuant to Section 2.18(a) unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable with respect to such Interest Payment Date for
such Note. The Trustee or Paying Agent, as applicable, shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be determined to
have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

**2.19** **Record of Payment** 

The Trustee will maintain accounts and records evidencing any payment, by it or any other Paying Agent on behalf of the Issuer, of principal, Premium (if any) and interest in respect of Notes, which accounts and records will constitute, in the absence of manifest error, *prima facie* evidence of such payment.

**2.20** **Representation Regarding Third Party Interest** 

The Issuer hereby represents to the Trustee that any account to be opened by, or interest to be held by, the Trustee in connection with this Indenture, for or to the credit of the Issuer, either (a) is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party; or (b) is intended to be used by or on behalf of a third party, in which case the Issuer hereby agrees to complete, execute and deliver forthwith to the Trustee a declaration, in the Trustee's prescribed form or in such other form as may be reasonably satisfactory to it, as to the particulars of such third party.

**ARTICLE 3** 

**<u>REGISTRATION, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE AND OWNERSHIP</u>**

**3.1** **Register of Certificated Notes** 

(a) With respect to Notes issuable in whole or in part as registered Notes, the Issuer shall cause to be kept by
and at the principal office of the Trustee in Calgary, Alberta or by such other Registrar as the Issuer, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as may be specified in the Notes or as the Issuer may
designate with the approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the names and addresses of the Holders and particulars of the Notes held by them respectively and of all transfers of Notes. Such registration shall be noted on the
relevant Notes by the Trustee or other Registrar unless a new Note shall be issued upon such transfer.

(b) No transfer of a registered Note shall be valid unless made on such register referred to in Section 3.1(a)
by the Holder or such Holder's executors, administrators or other legal representatives or an attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and executed in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee or other Registrar upon surrender of
the Notes together with a duly executed form of transfer acceptable to the Trustee or other Registrar and upon compliance with such other reasonable requirements as the Trustee or other Registrar may prescribe, and unless the name of the transferee
shall have been noted on the Note by the Trustee or other Registrar.

**3.2** **Global Notes** 

(a) With respect to Notes issuable as or represented by, in whole or in part, one or more Global Notes, the Issuer
shall cause to be kept by and at the principal office of the Trustee in Calgary, Alberta or by such other Registrar as the Issuer, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as the Issuer may designate with
the approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the name and address of the Holder of each such Global Note (being the Depository, or its nominee, for such Global Note) and particulars of the Global Note held by it, and of all
transfers thereof. If any Notes are at any time not Global Notes, the provisions of Section 3.1 shall govern with respect to registrations and transfers of such Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, a Global Note may not be transferred by the Holder
thereof and, accordingly, subject to Section 3.6, no Definitive Notes shall be issued to Beneficial Holders except in the following circumstances or as otherwise specified in a resolution of the Trustee, a Board Resolution or an Officers'
Certificate:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Definitive Notes may be issued to Beneficial Holders at any time after:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has determined that CDS (1) is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for Global Notes,
or (2) ceases to be eligible to be a Depository, and, in each case the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor to its reasonable satisfaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Issuer has determined, in its sole discretion, or is required by law, to terminate the book-entry only
registration system in respect of such Global Notes and has communicated such determination or requirement to the Trustee in writing, or the book-entry system ceases to exist;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Trustee has determined that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to Notes issued
as Global Notes, *provided* that Beneficial Holders representing, in the aggregate, not less than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes advise the Depository in writing, through the Participants, that the continuation
of the book-entry only registration system for the Notes is no longer in their best interests; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Global Notes may be transferred (A) if such transfer is required by applicable law, as determined by the
Issuer and Counsel, or (B) by a Depository to a nominee of such Depository, or by a nominee of a Depository to such Depository, or to another nominee of such Depository, or by a Depository or its nominee to a successor Depository or its
nominee.

(c) Upon the termination of the book-entry only registration system on the occurrence of one of the conditions
specified in Section 3.2(b)(i) or upon the transfer of a Global Note to a Person other than a Depository or a nominee thereof in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(i)(A), the Trustee shall notify all Beneficial Holders, through the Depository,
of the availability of Definitive Notes. Upon surrender by the Depository of the Global Notes and receipt of new registration instructions from the Depository, the Trustee shall deliver the Definitive Notes to the Beneficial Holders thereof in
accordance with the new registration instructions and thereafter, the registration and transfer of such Notes will be governed by Section 3.1 and the remaining provisions of this Article 3.

(d) It is expressly acknowledged that transfer of beneficial ownership in any Note issuable in the form of or
represented by a Global Note will be effected only (a) with respect to the interests of participants in the Depository ()"**Participants** "), through records maintained by the Depository or its nominee for the Global Note, and
(b) with respect to interests of Persons other than Participants, through records maintained by Participants. Beneficial Holders who are not Participants but who desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of or other interest in
Notes represented by a Global Note may do so only through a Participant.

**3.3** **Transferee Entitled to Registration** 

The transferee of a Note shall be entitled, after the appropriate form of transfer is deposited with the Trustee or other Registrar and upon compliance with all other conditions for such transfer required by this Indenture or by law, to be entered on the register as the owner of such Note free from all equities or rights of set-off or counterclaim between the Issuer and the transferor or any previous Holder of such Note, save in respect of equities of which the Issuer is required to take notice by law (including any statute or order of a court of competent jurisdiction).

**3.4** **No Notice of Trusts** 

None of the Issuer, the Trustee and any Registrar or Paying Agent will be bound to take notice of or see to the performance or observance of any duty owed to a third Person, whether under a trust, express, implied, resulting or constructive, in respect of any Note by the Holder or any Person whom the Issuer or the Trustee treats, as permitted or required by law, as the owner or the Holder of such Note, and may transfer the same on the direction of the Person so treated as the owner or Holder of the Note, whether named as Trustee or otherwise, as though that Person were the Beneficial Holder thereof.

------

**3.5** **Registers Open for Inspection** 

The registers referred to in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall, subject to applicable law, at all reasonable times be open for inspection by the Issuer, the Trustee or any Holder. Every Registrar, including the Trustee, shall from time to time when requested so to do by the Issuer or by the Trustee, in writing, furnish the Issuer or the Trustee, as the case may be, with a list of names and addresses of Holders entered on the registers kept by them and showing the principal amount and serial numbers of the Notes held by each such Holder, *provided* the Trustee shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee to provide such a list.

***(a)***  ***Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.*** A Global Note may be transferred in whole and not in part
only pursuant to Section 3.2(b)(ii). A beneficial interest in a Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note other than pursuant to Section 3.2(b)(i). A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in

to be delivered to the Registrar to effect transfers described in this Section 3.6(b)(i).

*(ii)* *All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes.* In connection with all
transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 3.6(b)(i), the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A) (1) a written order from a Participant or a Beneficial Holder,
in each case, given to the Depository in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depository to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount

the preceding events in Section 3.2(b)(i) and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.6(b)(ii). Upon the occurrence of any such preceding event and receipt by the Registrar of the documentation referred to in the appropriate
subparagraph of this Section 3.6(c), the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 3.6(f), and the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver to the Person designated in the instructions a Definitive Note in the appropriate principal amount. Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 3.6(c) shall be registered in such name or
names and in such authorized denomination or denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the Registrar through instructions from the Depository and the Participant or Beneficial Holder. The Trustee shall deliver such
Definitive Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered. The foregoing requirements shall apply to all transfers pursuant to this Section 3.6(c).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) *Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Notes to Restricted Definitive Notes.* A holder of a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Global Note may transfer such beneficial interest to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Restricted Definitive Note upon the receipt by the Registrar

**4.2** **Optional Redemption** 

(a) At any time prior to June 23, 2023, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to an aggregate
of 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes), upon not less than 15 days' nor more than 60 days' notice, at a Redemption Price of 106.00% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), with the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity
Offerings; *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes) remains outstanding
immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of the related Qualified Equity Offering.

(b) At any time prior to June 23, 2023, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of

---

------

laws or regulations of any Relevant Taxing Authority, or a change in any official position regarding the application, interpretation or administration thereof (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction) or assessing practice with
respect thereto, which is publicly announced or becomes effective on or after the date of this Indenture and such Additional Amounts cannot (as certified in an Officers' Certificate to the Trustee) be avoided by the use of reasonable measures
available to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, then the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the affected Notes, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 days' nor more than 60 days' notice (such notice to be provided not more
than 90 days before the next date on which it or any Guarantor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding, the
redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date). Notice of the Issuer's intent to redeem the affected Notes
shall not be effective until such time as it delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts because of an amendment to or change in law or regulation or
position as described in this paragraph.

**4.3** **Mandatory Redemption** 

The Issuer is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase the Notes pursuant to Sections 5.11 and 5.14.

**4.4** **Places of Payment** 

The Redemption Price will be payable upon presentation and surrender of the Notes called for redemption at any of the places where the principal of such Notes is expressed to be payable and at any other places specified in the Redemption Notice.

**4.5** **Partial Redemption** 

(a) If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption as
follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange on which such Notes are listed; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, or based on a method that
most nearly approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate unless otherwise required by applicable law or depository requirements,

------

*provided* that if less than all the Notes are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to Section 4.2(a), the Trustee will select Notes for redemption as described in clause (ii) unless that method is otherwise prohibited. Subject to the foregoing, Notes or portions of Notes the Trustee selects for redemption shall be in minimum amounts of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) If Notes are to be redeemed in part only, the Redemption Notice that relates to such Notes will state the
portion of the principal amount of such Notes that is to be redeemed. In the event that one or more of such Notes becomes subject to redemption in part only, upon surrender of any such Notes for payment of the Redemption Price, together with
interest accrued to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without charge to the Holder thereof or upon the Holder's order one or more new Notes for the unredeemed
part of the principal amount of the Notes so surrendered or, with respect to Global Notes, the Trustee shall make notations on the Global Notes of the principal amount thereof so redeemed. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms
"Note" or "Notes" as used in this Article 4 shall be deemed to mean or include any part of the principal amount of any Note which in accordance with the foregoing provisions has become subject to redemption.

**4.6** **Notice of Redemption** 

Notice of redemption (the "**Redemption Notice**") of any Notes shall be given to the Holders of the Notes so to be redeemed not more than 60 days nor less than 15 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the "**Redemption Date**") in the manner provided in Section 13.2; *provided* that Redemption Notices in respect of optional redemptions of Notes may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the Redemption Notice is issued in connection with a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Every such Redemption Notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Notes called for redemption, the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price and the places of payment and shall state that interest upon the principal amount of Notes called for redemption shall cease to be payable from and after the Redemption Date. Redemption Notices, including without limitation, upon an Equity Offering, may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering. In addition, unless all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Redemption Notice shall specify:

(a) the distinguishing letters and numbers of the Notes which are to be redeemed (as are registered in the name of
such Holder);

(b) if such Notes are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to
identify the Notes so selected;

(c) in the case of Global Notes, that the redemption will take place in such manner as may be agreed upon by the
Depository, the Trustee and the Issuer; and

(d) in all cases, the principal amounts of such Notes or, if any such Note is to be redeemed in part only, the
principal amount of such part.

------

Notwithstanding Section 13.2, in the event that all Notes to be redeemed are Global Notes, publication of the Redemption Notice shall not be required.

**4.7** **Notes Due on Redemption Dates** 

Upon a Redemption Notice having been given as provided in Section 4.6, all the Notes so called for redemption or the principal amount to be redeemed of the Notes called for redemption, as the case may be, shall thereupon be and become due and payable at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to but excluding the Redemption Date, on the Redemption Date specified in such notice, in the same manner and with the same effect as if it were the Stated Maturity specified in such Notes, anything therein or herein to the contrary notwithstanding. From and after such Redemption Date, if the monies necessary to redeem such Notes shall have been deposited as provided in Section 4.8 and affidavits or other proof satisfactory to the Trustee as to the publication and/or mailing of such Redemption Notices shall have been lodged with it, interest upon the Notes shall cease. If any question shall arise as to whether any notice has been given as above provided and such deposit made, such question shall be decided by the Trustee whose decision shall be final and binding upon all parties in interest.

**4.8** **Deposit of Redemption Monies** 

(a) Upon Notes being called for redemption, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or any Paying Agent to the
order of the Trustee, on or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the Redemption Date specified in the Redemption Notice, such sums of money as may be sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes so called
for redemption, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to but excluding the Redemption Date and including any Additional Amounts, less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom. The Issuer shall also deposit with the
Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay any charges or expenses which may be incurred by the Trustee in connection with such redemption. Every such deposit shall be irrevocable. From the sums so deposited, the Trustee shall pay or cause to be paid,
to the Holders of such Notes so called for redemption, upon surrender of such Notes, the principal, Premium (if any) and interest (if any) to which they are respectively entitled on redemption.

(b) Payment of funds to the Trustee upon redemption of Notes shall be made by electronic transfer or certified
cheque or pursuant to such other arrangements for the provision of funds as may be agreed between the Issuer and the Trustee in order to effect such payment hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) all payments in excess of $25,000,000 (or
such other amount as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association) shall be made by the use of the LVTS; and (ii) in the event that payment must be made to the Depository, the Issuer shall remit payment to the Trustee by
LVTS. The Trustee shall have no obligation to disburse funds pursuant to this Section 4.8 unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts
due and payable on the applicable Redemption Date. The Trustee shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be
determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

------

**4.9** **Failure to Surrender Notes Called for Redemption** 

In case the Holder of any Note so called for redemption shall fail on or before the Redemption Date so to surrender such Holder's Note, or shall not within such time specified on the Redemption Notice accept payment of the redemption monies payable, or give such receipt therefor, if any, as the Trustee may require, such redemption monies may be set aside in trust, without interest, either in the deposit department of the Trustee or in a chartered bank, and such setting aside shall for all purposes be deemed a payment to the Holder of the sum so set aside and, to that extent, such Note shall thereafter not be considered as outstanding hereunder and the Holder thereof shall have no other right except to receive payment of the Redemption Price of such Note, plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date and including any Additional Amounts, less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld, out of the monies so paid and deposited, upon surrender and delivery up of such Holder's relevant Note. In the event that any money required to be deposited hereunder with the Trustee or any Paying Agent on account of principal, Premium, if any, or interest, if any, on Notes issued hereunder shall remain so deposited for a period of six years from the Redemption Date, then such monies, together with any accumulated interest thereon, shall at the end of such period be paid over or delivered over by the Trustee or such Paying Agent to the Issuer on its demand, and thereupon the Trustee shall not be responsible to Holders of such Notes for any amounts owing to them and subject to applicable law, thereafter the Holders of such Notes in respect of which such money was so repaid to the Issuer shall have no rights in respect thereof except to obtain payment of the money due from the Issuer, subject to any limitation period provided by the laws of Alberta.

**4.10** **Cancellation of Notes Redeemed** 

Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.5 and 4.11 as to Notes redeemed or purchased in part, all Notes redeemed and paid under this Article 4 shall forthwith be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution for those redeemed.

**4.11** **Purchase of Notes for Cancellation** 

(a) The Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, purchase or otherwise acquire Notes, whether pursuant to a
tender offer, open market purchase, negotiated transactions or otherwise, at any price, in accordance with applicable securities laws; *provided* that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such acquisition does not
otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture. All Notes so purchased may, at the option of the Issuer, be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution therefor.

(b) If, upon an invitation for tenders, more Notes are tendered at the same lowest price than the Issuer is
prepared to accept, the Notes to be purchased by the Issuer shall be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis or in such other manner as the Issuer directs in writing and as consented to by the exchange, if any, on which Notes are then listed
which the Trustee considers appropriate, from the Notes tendered by each tendering Holder thereof who tendered at such lowest price. For this purpose the Trustee may make, and from time to time amend, regulations with respect to the manner in which
Notes may be so selected, and regulations so made shall be valid and binding upon all Holders thereof,

------

notwithstanding the fact that as a result thereof one or more of such Notes become subject to purchase in part only. The Holder of a Note of which a part only is purchased, upon surrender of such Note for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such Holder, one or more new Notes for the unpurchased part so surrendered, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such new Note or Notes upon receipt of the Note so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Note, the Depository shall make notations on the applicable Global Note of the principal amount thereof so purchased.

agreements in effect on the Issue Date or (B) any such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness is customary and does not prohibit (except upon a default or an event of default thereunder) the payment of dividends in an amount

bond itself);

(viii) Purchase Money Obligations and Capitalized Lease Obligations incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary after the Issue Date, and Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred pursuant to clause (xi), in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (A) $375 million or (B) 6% of the

otherwise quantified and reflected on the balance sheet will not be deemed "included on the face of the balance sheet" for purposes of the foregoing) and (B) in the case of a disposition, the maximum aggregate liability in respect

merger or consolidation); *provided, however*, that at the time such Person or assets is/are acquired by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, or amalgamated, merged or consolidated with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and
after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (xiv) and any other related Indebtedness, either (A) the Issuer would have been able to incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to section
5.10(a) or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such acquisition, amalgamation, merger or
consolidation;

(xv) Indebtedness representing deferred compensation to directors, officers, members of management or employees (in
their capacities as such) of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and incurred in the ordinary course of business;

------

(xvi) daylight loans incurred for bona fide tax planning purposes;

(xvii) unsecured obligations owing under letters of credit, letters of guarantee, performance guarantees and similar
instruments by one or more financial institutions which are guaranteed by Export Development Canada pursuant to its "Performance Security Guarantee" program (or any replacement program thereto) in any aggregate principal amount not to
exceed $150,000,000; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xviii) additional Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount
which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xviii) and then outstanding and all Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred pursuant to clause (xi), will not exceed
the greater of (A) $400 million or (B) 6% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets (determined at the time of incurrence).

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 5.10:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted
Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 5.10(a), the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness and may divide and
classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described therein (except that Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred under clause (b)(i) of
Section 5.10(b)), and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) (*provided* that at the time of reclassification it meets the criteria in such category or
categories);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the
determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could have incurred such Indebtedness;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to
the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Indebtedness of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or
amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed to have been incurred by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
(or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under this Section 5.10, the Issuer shall be in Default of this
covenant; *provided* that any Indebtedness of such Person that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon consummation of the transaction by which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) will be deemed to not be Indebtedness for the purposes of this Section 5.10.

------

(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence
of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date
that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; *provided* that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign
currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian dollar-denominated
restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to
refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that
is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

(e) Notwithstanding Subsections 5.10(a) and 5.10(b), neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor will incur any additional
Indebtedness (including Permitted Indebtedness) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Person unless such additional Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes
or the applicable Guarantee, as the case may be, on substantially identical terms; *provided, however*, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness solely by virtue of being
unsecured or secured on a junior-ranking basis.

(f) The Issuer will not permit any of its Unrestricted Subsidiaries to incur any Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Debt.

**5.11** **Limitation on Asset Sales** 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly,
consummate any Asset Sale unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Sale; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; for the purposes of this Section 5.11(a)(ii) only, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the amount (without duplication) of any Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness or intercompany
Indebtedness) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary that is expressly assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a written novation agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability therefor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount of any securities, notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days
after such Asset Sale converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Fair Market Value of (1) any assets (other than securities) received by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to be used by it in a Permitted Business, (2) Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
acquisition of such Person by the Issuer or (3) a combination of (1) and (2).

(b) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in
accordance with this Section 5.11.

(c) Any Asset Sale pursuant to a condemnation, expropriation, appropriation or other similar taking, including by
deed in lieu of condemnation, or pursuant to the foreclosure or other enforcement of a Permitted Lien or exercise by the related lienholder of rights with respect thereto, including by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure shall not be required
to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 5.11(a).

(d) Notwithstanding Section 5.11(a), the 75% limitation referred to in Section 5.11(a)(ii) shall be
deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with this Section 5.11 on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

(e) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary may, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) permanently repay, redeem or otherwise retire (A) obligations under the Credit Agreement, and/or
(B) Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien (in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the
Issuer) and, if the obligations repaid are in respect of revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) permanently repay, redeem or otherwise retire obligations under other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary (in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); *provided* that the Issuer shall equally and ratably
reduce obligations under the Notes as provided under Section 4.2, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section 5.11(g) for a Net Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid;
or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) make any capital expenditure or otherwise invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in
the purchase of assets (other than securities and excluding working capital or current assets for the avoidance of doubt) to be used by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity
Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (x) any portion of Net Available Proceeds are not invested or reinvested as contemplated by clause (iii) within 365 days of receipt thereof, (y) such portion of Net Available Proceeds are, within 365 days of receipt thereof, segregated from the general funds of the Issuer for investments of the type described in clause (iii), and (z) the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has, within 365 days of receipt of such Net Restricted Proceeds, entered into a binding contractual commitment upon customary conditions (including a purchase agreement or purchase order) to make such investments, then the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have invested such Net Available Proceeds in accordance with clause (iii); *provided* that, in the event and to the extent such investment shall not be completed in whole or in part in accordance with such binding contractual commitment within 180 days after entering into such binding contractual commitment, such binding contractual commitment shall have been terminated in whole or in part, such investment shall be abandoned in whole or in part, or such Net Available Proceeds are not otherwise applied to fund such investment in whole or in part, then the Net Available Proceeds (or balance of Net Available Proceeds related to the non-completed portion of a binding contractual commitment in the event of a partial completion, termination, abandonment or application) shall be applied as described in Section 5.11(g). The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this Section 5.11(e) will constitute "**Excess Proceeds**."

(f) Pending the final application of any Net Available Proceeds pursuant to this Section 5.11, the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary holding such Net Available Proceeds may apply such Net Available Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Proceeds in any manner not
prohibited by this Indenture.

|:---|:---|
| (g) (i) | On the 366th day after an Asset Sale (or, at the Issuer's option, an earlier date or any later date contemplated by Section 5.11(e)), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $75 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase or redeem (a "**Net Proceeds Offer**") from all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase or redeem such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes, and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Net Proceeds Offer applies that may be purchased or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make an Net Proceeds Offer as described in
Section 5.11(g)(i), the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an
informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no earlier than
30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

(h) (i) The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days

following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the "**Net Proceeds Offer Period**"). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the "**Net Proceeds Purchase Date**"), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this covenant (the "**Net Proceeds Offer Amount**") or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment
date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Net Proceeds
Offer.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a
pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer, or if less
than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer
will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this covenant and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates
and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Net Proceeds Offer
Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness
so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers' Certificate
from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; *provided* that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or
an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the
Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

(i) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly
tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate
principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on
the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net
Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions described under Section 5.14 and/or Article 9 and not by the provisions of this Asset Sale covenant.

------

(k) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.11:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.11; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an
election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

(l) The Issuer will comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation, and any other applicable laws and
regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any Applicable Securities Legislation or applicable laws and regulations conflict with this Section 5.11, the Issuer
shall comply with the Applicable Securities Legislation and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 5.11 by virtue of such compliance.

**5.12** **Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates** 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one
transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the
benefit of, any Affiliate (an "**Affiliate Transaction**") involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $15 million, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm's length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in
excess of $50 million, an Officers' Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in
excess of $75 million, a Secretary's Certificate which sets forth and authenticates a resolution that has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

(b) The restrictions in Section 5.12(a) shall not apply to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) transactions exclusively between or among (A) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or
(B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) reasonable director, trustee, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits
(including pursuant to any employment agreement or any retirement, health, stock option or other benefit plan), payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees of the Issuer and indemnification arrangements, in each case, as reasonably
determined in good faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors or senior management;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Permitted Investments (other than pursuant to clause (i) of the definition thereof);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with Section 5.8;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a
whole, is not, in the reasonable and good faith judgment of the Issuer, more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer in any material respect than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an
Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) (A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustees a
letter from a Canadian or U.S. nationally recognized accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of
5.12(a)(i).

**5.13** **Limitation on Liens** 

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its or their property or assets (including Equity Interests of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, which Lien secures Indebtedness or trade payables, unless contemporaneously with the incurrence of such Lien:

(a) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks *pari passu* with the Notes or a Guarantee,
effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and

(b) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or a
Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

in each case, for so long as such obligation is secured by such Lien.

------

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "Increased Amount" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (a) through (aa) of the definition of "Permitted Liens," the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify any Lien described in clauses (a) through (aa) of the definition of "Permitted Liens" (provided that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

**5.14** **Offer to Purchase Notes upon Change of Control** 

(a) Subject to Section 5.14(h), upon the occurrence of any Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the
Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as described under Section 4.2, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer purchase all or any portion (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple
of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer described in Section 5.14(b) (the "**Change of Control Offer**") for a cash price (the "**Change of Control Purchase Price**") equal
to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the "**Change of Control Payment Date** ").

(b) No later than 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) offering to purchase, pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, on the Change of Control Payment Date specified
in such notice, which shall be a Business Day not earlier than 30 days nor, unless such Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event as contemplated by Section 5.14(h), later than 60 days from the
date such notice is delivered, and for the Change of Control Purchase Price, all Notes properly tendered by such Holder pursuant to such Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) describing the procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that Holders must
follow to accept the Change of Control Offer, to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

(c) On the Business Day immediately preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent
lawful, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered.

------

(d) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes accepted together with an Officers' Certificate
stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

(e) The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change
of Control Purchase Price for such Notes, with such payment to be made through the facilities of the Depository for all Global Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new
Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes so tendered, if any; *provided* that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(f) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest
payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date.

(g) A Change of Control Offer will be required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or for such longer
period as is required by law. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(h) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event and
a Holder will not have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase any Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer if (i) a third party makes an offer to purchase the Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in substantial compliance
with the requirements set forth in this Section 5.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, or (ii) a Redemption Notice has
been given pursuant to Section 4.2 unless and until there is a Default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.14, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a
third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of
Control Offer is made.

------

(i) The Issuer will comply with Applicable Securities Legislation and any other applicable laws and regulations in
connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Applicable Securities Legislation or other applicable laws and regulations conflict with the requirements of this Section 5.14,
the Issuer shall comply with the Applicable Securities Legislation and such other applicable laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 5.14 by virtue of such compliance.

(j) The provisions in this Indenture relating to the Issuer's obligation to make a Change of Control Offer
may be waived, modified or terminated with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

(k) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes
accept a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 30 days' nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the
purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a Redemption Price equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price plus, to the extent not included in the Change of
Control Purchase Price, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on
or prior to the Redemption Date).

**5.15** **Corporate Existence** 

Subject to Section 5.14 and Article 9, as the case may be, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary and the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; *provided* that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Issuer shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

**5.16** **Business Activities** 

The Issuer will engage, and will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to engage, only in businesses that, when considered together as a single enterprise, are primarily the Permitted Business.

**5.17** **Additional Guarantees** 

(a) If any of Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor incurs or guarantees any Indebtedness
(other than Indebtedness owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary) and the aggregate amount of all such Indebtedness of all Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors would exceed $10 million, then the Issuer shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 days a supplemental indenture
in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver to the Trustee one or more Opinions of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee that such Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary.

Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

(b) The Issuer may also elect to cause any other Restricted Subsidiary to issue a Guarantee and become a Guarantor.

**5.18** **Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted** 

(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to Section 5.20(i), designate any Subsidiary (including
any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a
" **Designation** "), *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation
(unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer would be permitted to make, at the time of such Designation, (A) a Permitted Investment or
(B) an Investment pursuant to Section 5.8, in either case, in an amount (the "**Designation Amount**") equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on the date such Subsidiary is Designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any
agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or the Restricted
Subsidiary than those that would be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Subsidiary has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any
Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless such guarantee is released concurrent with such Designation.

(b) For purposes of any Designation, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries
(except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of "Investment." Such Designation will be permitted only if a Restricted
Payment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

------

(c) Any Designation by the Board of Directors of the Issuer shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the
Trustee a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer giving effect to such Designation and an Officers' Certificate certifying that such Designation complies with the foregoing conditions. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary
fails to meet the requirements of this Section 5.18 as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of the Subsidiary and any Liens on assets of such
Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary at such time and, if the Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred under the Section 5.10 or the Lien is not permitted under Section 5.13, the Issuer shall be in
default of such Section.

(d) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a
" **Redesignation**") only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Redesignation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) all Liens upon property of such Unrestricted Subsidiary existing at the time of such Redesignation would be
permitted Section 5.13;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by such Unrestricted Subsidiary will be
deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and any such designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time in compliance with Section 5.8;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Redesignation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any
outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such Redesignation will only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 5.10, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of
the four-quarter reference period; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) if required pursuant to Section 5.17, such Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor pursuant to such
Section within 10 Business Days of the date on which it is so designated.

Any such Redesignation shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer giving effect to such Redesignation and an Officers' Certificate certifying that such Redesignation complies with the foregoing conditions.

**5.19** **Further Instruments and Acts** 

Upon request by the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.

------

**5.20** **Covenant Termination** 

(a) Following the first date that (a) the Notes have a rating equal to or higher than "BBB-" by S&P or "BBB (low)" by DBRS (or, if either such agency ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Issuer, the equivalent investment grade credit rating
from any other "designated rating organization" within the meaning of National Instrument 51-102 *Continuous Disclosure Obligations* that is selected by the Issuer as a replacement agency) and
(b) no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the following provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Section 5.8;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Section 5.9;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Section 5.10;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Section 5.11;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Section 5.12;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Section 5.17(a); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Section 9.1(a)(iii);

(collectively, the "**Eliminated Covenants**").

(b) After the Eliminated Covenants have been terminated in accordance with Section 5.20(a), the Issuer may not
designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

**5.21** **SEC Reporting Covenant** 

The Issuer confirms to the Trustee that as at the date of execution of this Indenture it does not have a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act, or have a reporting obligation pursuant to Section 15(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act. The Issuer covenants to the Trustee that in the event that (a) any class of its securities shall become registered pursuant to Section 12 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act or the Issuer shall incur a reporting obligation pursuant to Section 15(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act, or (b) any such registration or reporting obligation shall be terminated by the Issuer in accordance with the U.S. Securities Exchange Act, the Issuer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate (in a form provided by the Trustee) notifying the Trustee of such registration or termination and such other information as the Trustee may require at the time.

**ARTICLE 6** 

**<u>DEFAULT AND ENFORCEMENT</u>**

**6.1** **Events of Default**

Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding;

(e) default by the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries under any mortgage, indenture or other instrument

default:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) is caused by a failure to pay at its Stated Maturity principal on such Indebtedness within the applicable
express grace period and any extensions thereof (a "**Payment Default** "), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity (which acceleration is not
rescinded, annulled or otherwise cured within 30 days of receipt by the Issuer or such Significant Subsidiary of notice of any such acceleration),

and, in each case, the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other Indebtedness with respect to which an event described in clause (i) or (ii) has occurred and is continuing, aggregates $50 million or more;

(f) one or more judgments (to the extent not covered by insurance) for the payment of money in an aggregate amount
in excess of $50 million shall be rendered against the Issuer, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any combination thereof and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of 60 consecutive days during which execution shall not be
effectively stayed;

(g) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that,
taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) commences a voluntary case,

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) applies for or consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) is for relief against the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) appoints a Custodian of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) orders the liquidation of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or

(i) any Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantee
and this Indenture) or is declared null and void and unenforceable or found to be invalid or any Guarantor denies its liability under the Guarantee of such Guarantor (other than by reason of release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture and such Guarantee).

**6.2** **Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, Annulment and Waiver** 

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) with respect to
the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the
Trustee, may declare (an "**acceleration declaration**") all amounts owing under the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration, the aggregate principal (and Premium, if any) of and accrued and unpaid interest on
the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) occurs with respect to the Issuer, then the principal of (and Premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on all
of the outstanding Notes will thereupon become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Issuer shall deliver to the
Trustee, within 10 days after the occurrence thereof, notice of any Payment Default or acceleration referred to in Section 6.1(e).

------

(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due
has been obtained by the Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the
Issuer, the Holders and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts
of principal of (and Premium, if any) or interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Notes (or any of
them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any Event of Default if, in the Trustee's opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor, and in such event
to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences,

*provided* that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 6.2(a), in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes
because an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged
or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by
the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not
been cured or waived during such period.

(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the
Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Premium, if any, on, or
the principal of, the Notes.

------

**6.3** **Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee** 

(a) The Issuer covenants that if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Default is made in the payment of any instalment of interest on any Note when such interest becomes due and
payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Default is made in the payment of the principal of (or Premium, if any on) any Note at the Maturity thereof and
such default continues for a period of three Business Days,

the Issuer will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal (and Premium, if any) and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and Premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue instalment of interest, at the rate borne by the Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

(b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of
an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor (including the
Guarantors, if any) upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

**6.4** **Trustee May File Proofs of Claim** 

(a) In case of any pending receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer and its debts or any other obligor upon the Notes (including the Guarantors, if any), and their debts or the Property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the
payment of overdue principal (and Premium, if any) or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and Premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same,

and any Custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder.

(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt
on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

**6.5** **Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes** 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the rateable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

**6.6** **Application of Monies by Trustee** 

(a) Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6
shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or Premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of
the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) first, in payment or in reimbursement to the Trustee of its reasonable compensation, costs, charges, expenses,
borrowings, advances or other monies furnished or provided by or at the instance of the Trustee in or about the execution of its trusts under, or otherwise in relation to, this Indenture, with interest thereon as herein provided;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) second, but subject as hereinafter in this Section 6.6 provided, in payment, rateably and proportionately
to the Holders, of the principal of and Premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on the Notes which shall then be outstanding in the priority of principal first and then Premium and then accrued and unpaid
interest and interest on amounts in default unless otherwise directed by Extraordinary Resolution and in that case in such order or priority as between principal, Premium (if any) and interest as may be directed by such resolution; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) third, in payment of the surplus, if any, of such monies to the Issuer or its assigns and/or the Guarantors, as
the case may be;

*provided, however*, that no payment shall be made pursuant to clause (ii) in respect of the principal, Premium or interest on any Notes held, directly or indirectly, by or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than any Notes pledged for value and in good faith to a Person other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer but only to the extent of such Person's interest therein), except subject to the prior payment in full of the

principal, Premium (if any) and interest (if any) on all Notes which are not so held.

(b) The Trustee shall not be bound to apply or make any partial or interim payment of any monies coming into its
hands if the amount so received by it, after reserving thereout such amount as the Trustee may think necessary to provide for the payments mentioned in Section 6.6(a), is insufficient to make a distribution of at least 2% of the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Notes, but it may retain the money so received by it and invest or deposit the same as provided in Section 10.9 until the money or the investments representing the same, with the income derived therefrom,
together with any other monies for the time being under its control shall be sufficient for the said purpose or until it shall consider it advisable to apply the same in the manner hereinbefore set forth. The foregoing shall, however, not apply to a
final payment or distribution hereunder.

**6.7** **No Suits by Holders** 

Except to enforce payment of the principal of, and Premium (if any) or interest on any Note (after giving effect to any applicable grace period specified therefor in Section 6.1(a)), no Holder shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a liquidator, trustee or receiver or for a receiving order under any Bankruptcy Laws or to have the Issuer or any Guarantor wound up or to file or prove a claim in any liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) the Holder gives the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes make a written request
to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liability or
expense;

(d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of
indemnity; and

------

(e) during such 60 day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do
not give the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request.

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and rateable benefit of all the Holders.

**6.8** **Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest** 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Holder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein of the principal of (and Premium, if any) and interest on the Notes held by such Holder on the applicable Maturity date and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

**6.9** **Restoration of Rights and Remedies** 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantors (if any), the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

**6.10** **Rights and Remedies Cumulative** 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

**6.11** **Delay or Omission Not Waiver** 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

------

**6.12** **Direction by Holders** 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee. However, subject to Subject to Section 10.3, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes.

**6.13** **Notice of Event of Default** 

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 13.2, *provided* that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.

**6.14** **Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws** 

The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

**6.15** **Undertaking for Costs** 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant.

**6.16** **Judgment Against the Issuer** 

The Issuer covenants and agrees with the Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Holders, judgment may be rendered against it in favour of the Holders or in favour of the Trustee, as trustee for the Holders, for any amount which may remain due in respect of the Notes and Premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

**6.17 Immunity of Officers and Others** 

No director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Issuer, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Issuer is a trustee or carrier will have any liability for any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Notes or this Indenture or of any Guarantor under its Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release provided for in this Section 6.17 are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes and the Guarantees.

Not less than 15 days' notice shall be given in the manner provided in Section 13.2 by the Trustee to the Holders of Notes of any payment to be made under this Article 6.

After the day so fixed, unless payment shall have been duly demanded and have been refused, the Holders of Notes will be entitled to interest only on the balance (if any) of the principal monies, Premium (if any) and interest due (if any) to them, respectively, on the Notes, after deduction of the respective amounts payable in respect thereof on the day so fixed.

**6.19 Trustee May Demand Production of Notes** 

The Trustee shall have the right to demand production of the Notes in respect of which any payment of principal, interest or Premium (if any) required by this Article 6 is made and may cause to be endorsed on the same a memorandum of the amount so paid and the date of payment, but the Trustee may, in its discretion, dispense with such production and endorsement, upon such indemnity being given to it and to the Issuer as the Trustee shall deem sufficient.

**ARTICLE 7** 

**<u>DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE</u>**

**7.1** **Satisfaction and Discharge** 

The Trust Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect (except as to rights of transfer or exchange of Notes which shall survive until all Notes have been cancelled and the rights, protections and immunities of the Trustee) as to all outstanding Notes when either:

(a) all the Notes that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have
been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from this trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation,
or

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (b) (i) | all Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation otherwise (A) have become due and payable, or (B) will become due and payable within one year by reason of a notice of redemption or otherwise, and, in any case, the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in Canadian dollars, Canadian Government Obligations or a combination of any of the foregoing, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without consideration of any reinvestment of interest) to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness (including all principal, Premium (if any) and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption) under the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation,  |

---

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer has paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the
payment of the Notes at maturity or on the date of redemption, as the case may be.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i), the provisions of Sections 7.7 and 7.8 will survive.

**7.2** **Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance** 

The Issuer may, at the option of the Board of Directors of the Issuer evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers' Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 7.3 or 7.4 applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article 7.

**7.3** **Legal Defeasance and Discharge** 

(a) Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.3, the
Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations, other than the provisions contemplated to survive as set forth below, with
respect to all outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "**Legal Defeasance** "). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid
and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees thereof), which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of Sections 7.6 and 7.8 and the other Sections of
this Indenture referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, this Indenture and the Guarantees (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the rights of Holders of such Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, Premium, if any, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer's obligations in
connection therewith under Sections 7.6, 7.7 and 7.8 and Article 10; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) this Section 7.3.

(b) Subject to compliance with Section 7.2, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 7.3
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 7.4.

**7.4** **Covenant Defeasance** 

Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.4, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 5.3, 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11, 5.12, 5.13, 5.14, 5.16, 5.17, 5.18 and 9.1(a)(iii) (collectively, the "**Defeased Covenants**") with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 7.5 are satisfied (hereinafter, "**Covenant Defeasance**"), and such Notes shall thereafter be deemed not "outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders thereof (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with the Defeased Covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any Defeased Covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, such Notes and the obligations of the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.4, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, the events specified in Sections 6.1(c), 6.1(d), 6.1(e), 6.1(f), 6.1(g), 6.1(h) and 6.1(i) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default.

**7.5** **Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance** 

(a) In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance under Section 7.3 or Covenant Defeasance under
Section 7.4:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders and free
and clear of any Liens or adverse claims, cash in Canadian dollars, non-callable Canadian Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee, to pay the principal of, Premium (if any) and interest on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment
thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be,

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by the Internal Revenue Service, a ruling, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law,

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon this Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred,

(iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S.
federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Covenant Defeasance had not occurred,

(iv) in the case of Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and qualified to practice in Canada or a ruling from Canada Revenue Agency to the effect that Holders of the outstanding Notes who are not resident in Canada should not recognize income, gain
or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, and should be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, had not occurred,

(v) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either (A) on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings) or (B) insofar as Defaults from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on
the 91st day after the date of deposit,

(vi) the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound,

------

(vii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, after the expiry of 3 months
from the date of deposit and assuming that no intervening bankruptcy event has taken place in respect of the Issuer or any Guarantor between the date of deposit and the expiry of such 3 month period and assuming that no Holder was a non-arm's length party with respect to the Issuer or any Guarantor under applicable bankruptcy law, the deposit does not constitute a preferential payment that will be recoverable by a trustee in bankruptcy in
Canada pursuant to the provisions of the *Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act*, R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3, as amended,

(viii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not

Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and Premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such funds or Canadian Government Obligations has been deposited with the Trustee; *provided* that such funds or
Canadian Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds or obligations except to the extent required by law.

(b) If (x) the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any funds or Canadian Government Obligations in
accordance with Section 7.1 or 7.5 by reason of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application or (y) the funds deposited with the
Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes when due, then the Issuer's obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under this Indenture and the Guarantees will be revived and
reinstated and no such defeasance will be deemed to have occurred; *provided* that if the Issuer or any Guarantor has made any payment in respect of principal of, Premium, if any, or interest on any Notes or, as applicable, other amounts
because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer and such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the funds or Canadian Government Obligations held by the
Trustee.

Issuer is required to make an offer to purchase any outstanding Notes pursuant to the terms hereof, the Issuer shall be entitled to use any trust funds or trust property deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.5 for the purpose
of paying to any Holders of such Notes who have accepted any such offer of the total offer price payable in respect of an offer relating to any such Notes. Upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall be entitled to pay to such Holder from
such trust funds or trust property deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.5 in respect of such Notes which is applicable to the Notes held by such Holders who have accepted any such offer of the Issuer (which amount shall be

of the Holders (or any of them) is required, a meeting may be convened in accordance with this Article 8 to consider and resolve whether such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution should be approved by such Holders. A resolution
passed by the affirmative votes of the Holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes represented and voting on a poll at a meeting of Holders duly convened for the purpose and held in accordance with the provisions
of this Indenture shall constitute conclusively such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution; *provided* that an Extraordinary Resolution shall be required wherever in this Indenture such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or
resolution of the Holders is required to be approved by Extraordinary Resolution.

(b) At any time and from time to time, the Trustee on behalf of the Issuer may and, on receipt of an Issuer Order
or a Holders' Request and upon being indemnified and funded for the costs thereof to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee by the Issuer or the Holders signing such Holders' Request, will, convene a meeting of all Holders.

(c) If the Trustee fails to convene a meeting after being duly requested as aforesaid (and indemnified and funded
as aforesaid), the Issuer or such Holders may themselves convene such meeting and the notice calling such meeting may be signed by such Person as the Issuer or those Holders designate, as applicable. Every such meeting will be held in Calgary,
Alberta or such other place as the Trustee may in any case determine or approve.

------

**8.2** **Notice of Meetings** 

Not more than 60 days' nor less than 21 days' notice of any meeting of the Holders shall be given to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 13.2 and a copy of such notice shall be sent by post to the Trustee, unless the meeting has been called by it, and to the Issuer, unless such meeting has been called by it. Such notice shall state the time when and the place where the meeting is to be held and shall state briefly the general nature of the business to be transacted thereat and it shall not be necessary for any such notice to set out the terms of any resolution to be proposed or any of the provisions of this Article 8. The accidental omission to give notice of a meeting to any Holder shall not invalidate any resolution passed at any such meeting. A Holder may waive notice of a meeting either before or after the meeting.

**8.3** **Chair** 

Some individual, who need not be a Holder, nominated in writing by the Trustee shall be chair of the meeting and if no individual is so nominated, or if the individual so nominated is not present within 15 minutes from the time fixed for the holding of the meeting, a majority of the Holders present in person or by proxy shall choose some individual present to be chair.

**8.4** **Quorum** 

Subject to this Indenture, at any meeting of the Holders, a quorum shall consist of Holders present in person or by proxy and representing at least 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes. If a quorum of the Holders shall not be present within 30 minutes from the time fixed for holding any meeting, the meeting, if convened by the Holders or pursuant to a Holders' Request, shall be dissolved, but in any other case the meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is not a Business Day in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following Business Day thereafter) at the same time and place and no notice shall be required to be given in respect of such adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the Holders present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened notwithstanding that they may not represent 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at an adjourned meeting which might have been brought before or dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same. No business shall be transacted at any meeting unless the required quorum be present at the commencement of business.

**8.5** **Power to Adjourn** 

The chair of any meeting at which the requisite quorum of the Holders is present may, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes represented thereat, adjourn any such meeting and no notice of such adjournment need be given except such notice, if any, as the meeting may prescribe.

------

**8.6** **Voting** 

On a poll each Holder present in person or represented by a duly appointed proxy shall be entitled to one vote in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes of which it is the Holder. A proxyholder need not be a Holder. In the case of joint registered Holders of a Note, any one of them present in person or by proxy at the meeting may vote in the absence of the other or others; but in case more than one of them be present in person or by proxy, they shall vote together in respect of the Notes of which they are joint Holders.

**8.7** **Poll** 

A poll will be taken on every resolution and Extraordinary Resolution submitted for approval at a meeting of Holders, in such manner as the chair directs, and the results of such polls shall be binding on all Holders. Every resolution, other than an Extraordinary Resolution, will be decided by a majority of the votes cast on the poll for that resolution. An Extraordinary Resolution will require at least 66<sup>2</sup>/<sub>3</sub>% of the votes cast on the poll for that resolution to be in the affirmative in order for it to be passed.

**8.8** **Proxies** 

A Holder may be present and vote at any meeting of Holders by an authorized representative. The Issuer (in case it convenes the meeting) or the Trustee (in any other case) for the purpose of enabling the Holders to be present and vote at any meeting without producing their Notes, and of enabling them to be present and vote at any such meeting by proxy and of depositing instruments appointing such proxies at some place other than the place where the meeting is to be held, may from time to time make and vary such regulations as it shall think fit providing for and governing any or all of the following matters:

(a) the form of the instrument appointing a proxy, which shall be in writing, and the manner in which the same
shall be executed and the production of the authority of any individual signing on behalf of a Holder;

(b) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at such place as the Trustee, the Issuer or the Holder convening
the meeting, as the case may be, may, in the notice convening the meeting, direct and the time, if any, before the holding of the meeting or any adjournment thereof by which the same must be deposited; and

(c) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at some approved place or places other than the place at which
the meeting is to be held and enabling particulars of such instruments appointing proxies to be mailed, faxed, cabled, telegraphed or sent by other electronic means before the meeting to the Issuer or to the Trustee at the place where the same is to
be held and for the voting of proxies so deposited as though the instruments themselves were produced at the meeting.

Any regulations so made shall be binding and effective and the votes given in accordance therewith shall be valid and shall be counted. Save as such regulations may provide, the only Persons who shall be recognized at any meeting as the Holders of any Notes, or as entitled to vote or be present at the meeting in respect thereof, shall be Holders and Persons whom Holders have by instrument in writing duly appointed as their proxies.

creditors, whether secured or otherwise, and with holders of any Equity Interests or other securities of the Issuer;

prescribed in the resolution) to exercise, and to direct the Trustee to exercise, on behalf of the Holders, such of the powers of the Holders as are exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution or other resolution as shall be included in the resolution
appointing the committee, *provided* that the following terms shall apply to the appointment of such committee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the resolution making such appointment may provide for payment of the expenses and disbursements of and

by any committee appointed pursuant to Section 8.10(e).

**8.11** **Powers Cumulative** 

Any one or more of the powers in this Indenture stated to be exercisable by the Holders by Extraordinary Resolution or otherwise may be exercised from time to time and the exercise of any one or more of such powers from time to time shall not be deemed to exhaust the rights of the Holders to exercise the same or any other such power or powers thereafter from time to time. No powers exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution will derogate in any way from the rights of the Issuer pursuant to this Indenture.

**8.12** **Minutes** 

Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting as aforesaid shall be made and duly entered in books to be from time to time provided for that purpose by the Trustee at the expense of the Issuer, and any such minutes as aforesaid, if signed by the chair of the meeting at which such resolutions were passed or proceedings had, or by the chair of the next succeeding meeting of the Holders, shall be prima facie evidence of the matters therein stated and, until the contrary is proved, every such meeting, in respect of the proceedings of which minutes shall have been made, shall be deemed to have been duly held and convened, and all resolutions passed thereat or proceedings taken thereat to have been duly passed and taken.

Any consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution of the Holders which may be given by resolution at a meeting of the Holders pursuant to this Article 8 may also be given by the Holders of not less than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes by a signed instrument in one or more counterparts, except for matters required to be approved by Extraordinary Resolution in which case such matter may be approved by an instrument signed by 66<sup>2</sup>/<sub>3</sub>% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes, and the expressions "resolution" or "Extraordinary Resolution" when used in this Indenture will include instruments so signed.

(a) Any request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument which this Indenture may require or permit to be
signed or executed by the Holders may be in any number of concurrent instruments of similar tenor signed or executed by such Holders. Proof of the execution of any such request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument or of a writing

where it deems proof desirable and may accept such proof as it shall consider proper.

**<u>SUCCESSORS TO THE ISSUER AND THE RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES</u>**

**9.1** **Restrictions on Amalgamation, Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Certain Assets** 

(a) The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions,
amalgamate, consolidate, or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving Person), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of the assets
of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer will be the surviving or continuing Person; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Person (if other than the Issuer) formed by or surviving or continuing from such amalgamation,
consolidation, merger, winding up or dissolution or to which such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or assignment shall be made (collectively, the "**Successor**") is a corporation, limited liability company or
limited partnership organized and existing under the laws of Canada or any province thereof or the United States of America or of any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, and the Successor expressly assumes, by
operation of law or in agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture; *provided*, that if the Successor is not a corporation, a Restricted
Subsidiary that is a corporation expressly assumes as co-obligor all of the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes pursuant to a supplemental indenture to this Indenture executed and
delivered to the Trustee (for greater certainty, the Issuer shall be considered to be the Successor in the event of a statutory amalgamation governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof of the Issuer with any other Restricted Subsidiary);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as set forth in
clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as set
forth in clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, (A) the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, could incur $1.00 of
additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 5.10(a) or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio for the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such Consolidated
Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or transfer and such agreement and/or supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture;

provided that clauses (ii) and (iii) above shall not apply in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger with or into, or sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposal of or assignment of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to, another Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary.

For purposes of this Section 9.1(a), any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Issuer immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to have been incurred in connection with such transaction.

------

(b) Except in circumstances providing for the release of a Guarantor described under Section 12.10, no
Guarantor will, and the Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, (A) amalgamate, consolidate or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person
(whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person), or (B) sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of its assets to any Person (other than the Issuer or another Guarantor) unless either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) (1) such Guarantor will be the surviving or continuing Person; or (2) the

Person (if other than such Guarantor) formed by or surviving any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, winding-up or dissolution is another Guarantor or assumes, by operation of law or agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the obligations of such Guarantor under the Guarantee of such Guarantor and this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) except in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance, or other
disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and any Guarantor, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease,
transfer, conveyance or other disposition, and such agreements and/or supplemental indenture (if any), comply with this Indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of a sale or other disposition, the transaction does not violate Section 5.11.

For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, the Equity Interests of which constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer, will be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.

(c) Upon any amalgamation, merger or consolidation of the Issuer or a Guarantor, or any transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with this Section 9.1, in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is not the continuing obligor under the Notes or its Guarantee, as applicable, the surviving entity formed by such
amalgamation, merger or consolidation or into which the Issuer or such Guarantor is merged or the Person to which the sale, conveyance, lease, transfer, disposition or assignment is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, the Issuer or such Guarantor under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named therein as the Issuer or such Guarantor and, except in the case of a lease, the
Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes or in respect of its Guarantee, as the case may be, and all of the Issuer's or such Guarantor's other
obligations and covenants under the Notes, this Indenture and its Guarantee, if applicable.

------

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or
into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the Issuer or any Guarantor may consolidate, merge or amalgamate
with or into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or part of its properties and assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor or merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer solely for the purpose of
reincorporating in Canada or a province thereof, a state of the United States or the District of Columbia, as long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby.

**9.2** **Vesting of Powers in Successor** 

Whenever the conditions of Section 9.1 have been duly observed and performed, the Trustee will execute and deliver a Supplemental Indenture as provided for in Section 11.5 and then:

(a) the Successor Person will possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of the
Issuer or Guarantor under this Indenture in the name of the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, or otherwise, and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required to be done or performed by any directors or officers of the Issuer or
Guarantor may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of such successor; and

(b) the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, will be released and discharged from liability under this Indenture and
the Trustee will execute any documents which it may be advised are necessary or advisable for effecting or evidencing such release and discharge.

**ARTICLE 10** 

**<u>CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE</u>**

**10.1** **No Conflict of Interest** 

The Trustee represents to the Issuer that at the date of execution and delivery by it of this Indenture there exists no material conflict of interest in the role of the Trustee as a fiduciary hereunder but if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.1, such a material conflict of interest exists, or hereafter arises, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and the Notes of any series shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such material conflict of interest exists or arises.

------

**10.2** **Replacement of Trustee** 

(a) The Trustee may resign its trust and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder by giving
to the Issuer 90 days' notice in writing or such shorter notice as the Issuer may accept as sufficient. If at any time a material conflict of interest exists in the Trustee's role as a fiduciary hereunder the Trustee shall, within 30
days after ascertaining that such a material conflict of interest exists, either eliminate such material conflict of interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 10.2. The validity and enforceability of this
Indenture and of the Notes issued hereunder shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such a material conflict of interest exists. In the event of the Trustee resigning or being removed or being dissolved, becoming bankrupt,
going into liquidation or otherwise becoming incapable of acting hereunder, the Issuer shall forthwith appoint a new Trustee unless a new Trustee has already been appointed by the Holders in accordance with the provisions hereof. Failing such
appointment by the Issuer, the retiring Trustee or any Holder may apply to a Judge of the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench, on such notice as such Judge may direct at the Issuer's expense, for the appointment of a new Trustee but any new
Trustee so appointed by the Issuer or by the Court shall be subject to removal as aforesaid by the Holders and the appointment of such new Trustee shall be effective only upon such new Trustee becoming bound by this Indenture. Any new Trustee
appointed under any provision of this Section 10.2 shall be a corporation authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in all of the Provinces of Canada. On any new appointment the new Trustee shall be vested with the same powers,
rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as Trustee.

(b) Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or, with or to which it may be consolidated, amalgamated or
sold, or any entity resulting from any merger, consolidation, sale or amalgamation to which the Trustee shall be a party, shall be the successor Trustee under this Indenture without the execution of any instrument or any further act. Nevertheless,
upon the written request of the successor Trustee or of the Issuer, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver an instrument assigning and transferring to such successor Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the rights, powers and
trusts of the retiring Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all property and money held by such Trustee to the successor Trustee so appointed in its place. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from
the Issuer or any Guarantor be required by any new Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts, then any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall on
request of said new Trustee, be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer or such Guarantor, as applicable.

**10.3** **Duties of Trustee** 

In the exercise of the rights, duties and obligations prescribed or conferred by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee shall act honestly and in good faith and exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent Trustee would exercise in comparable circumstances. Subject to the foregoing, the Trustee will be liable for its own wilful misconduct, bad faith and gross negligence. The Trustee will not be liable for any act or default on the part of any agent employed by it or a co-Trustee, or for having permitted any agent or co-Trustee to receive and retain any money payable to the Trustee, except as aforesaid.

------

**10.4** **Reliance Upon Declarations, Opinions, etc.** 

(a) In the exercise of its rights, duties and obligations hereunder the Trustee may, if acting in good faith and
subject to Section 10.7, rely, as to the truth of the statements and accuracy of the opinions expressed therein, upon statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates furnished pursuant to any covenant, condition or requirement of this
Indenture or required by the Trustee to be furnished to it in the exercise of its rights and duties hereunder, if the Trustee examines such statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates and determines that they comply with
Section 10.5, if applicable, and with any other applicable requirements of this Indenture. The Trustee may nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable. Without restricting the
foregoing, the Trustee may rely on an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee notwithstanding that it is delivered by a solicitor or firm which acts as solicitors for the Issuer.

(b) The Trustee shall have no obligation to ensure or verify compliance with any applicable laws or regulatory
requirements on the issue or transfer of any Notes provided such issue or transfer is effected in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to process all transfers and redemptions upon the presumption that such
transfer and redemption is permissible pursuant to all applicable laws and regulatory requirements if such transfer and redemption is effected in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee shall have no obligation, other than to confer
with the Issuer and its Counsel, to ensure that legends appearing on the Notes comply with regulatory requirements or securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

**10.5** **Evidence and Authority to Trustee, Opinions, etc.** 

(a) The Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee evidence of compliance with the conditions precedent provided for in
this Indenture relating to any action or step required or permitted to be taken by the Issuer or the Trustee under this Indenture or as a result of any obligation imposed under this Indenture, including without limitation, the authentication and
delivery of Notes hereunder, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the taking of any other action to be taken by the Trustee at the request of or on the application of the Issuer, forthwith if and when (a) such evidence is
required by any other Section of this Indenture to be furnished to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.5, or (b) the Trustee, in the exercise of its rights and duties under this Indenture, gives the Issuer written
notice requiring it to furnish such evidence in relation to any particular action or obligation specified in such notice. Such evidence shall consist of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) an Officers' Certificate, stating that any such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of a condition precedent the satisfaction of which is, by the terms of this Indenture, made subject
to review or examination by a solicitor, an Opinion of Counsel that such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) in the case of any such condition precedent the satisfaction of which is subject to review or examination by
auditors or accountants, an opinion or report of the Issuer's Auditors whom the Trustee for such purposes hereby approves, that such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

------

(b) Whenever such evidence relates to a matter other than the authentication and delivery of Notes and the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such evidence may consist of a report or opinion of any solicitor, auditor, accountant, engineer or appraiser or any other appraiser or any other
individual whose qualifications give authority to a statement made by such individual, *provided* that if such report or opinion is furnished by a director, officer or employee of the Issuer it shall be in the form of a statutory declaration.
Such evidence shall be, so far as appropriate, in accordance with Section 10.5(a).

(c) Each statutory declaration, certificate, opinion or report with respect to compliance with a condition
precedent provided for in this Indenture shall include (i) a statement by the individual giving the evidence that he or she has read and is familiar with those provisions of this Indenture relating to the condition precedent in question,
(ii) a brief statement of the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such evidence are based, (iii) a statement that, in the belief of the individual giving such evidence, he
or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to make the statements or give the opinions contained or expressed therein, and (iv) a statement whether in the opinion of such individual the conditions
precedent in question have been complied with or satisfied.

(d) In addition to its obligations under Section 5.6, the Issuer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Trustee at any time if the Trustee reasonably so requires, an Officers' Certificate certifying that the Issuer has complied with all covenants, conditions or other requirements contained in this Indenture, the non-compliance with which would constitute a Default or an Event of Default, or if such is not the case, specifying the covenant, condition or other requirement which has not been complied with and giving
particulars of such non-compliance. The Issuer shall, whenever the Trustee so requires, furnish the Trustee with evidence by way of statutory declaration, opinion, report or certificate as specified by the
Trustee as to any action or step required or permitted to be taken by the Issuer or as a result of any obligation imposed by this Indenture.

**10.6** **Officers' Certificates Evidence** 

Except as otherwise specifically provided or prescribed by this Indenture, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee, if acting in good faith, may rely upon an Officers' Certificate.

**10.7** **Experts, Advisers and Agents** 

Subject to Section 10.4, the Trustee may:

(a) employ or retain and act and rely on the opinion or advice of or information obtained from any solicitor,
auditor, valuator, engineer, surveyor, appraiser or other expert, whether obtained by the Trustee or by the Issuer, or otherwise, and shall not be liable for acting, or refusing to act, in good faith on any such opinion or advice and may pay proper
and reasonable compensation for all such legal and other advice or assistance as aforesaid; and

------

(b) employ such agents and other assistants as it may reasonably require for the proper discharge of its duties
hereunder, and may pay reasonable remuneration for all services performed for it (and shall be entitled to receive reasonable remuneration for all services performed by it) in the discharge of the trusts hereof and compensation for all
disbursements, costs and expenses made or incurred by it in the discharge of its duties hereunder and in the management of the trusts hereof and any solicitors employed or consulted by the Trustee may, but need not be, solicitors for the Issuer.

**10.8** **Trustee May Deal in Notes** 

Subject to Sections 10.1 and 10.3, the Trustee may, in its personal or other capacity, buy, sell, lend upon and deal in Notes and generally contract and enter into financial transactions with the Issuer or otherwise, without being liable to account for any profits made thereby. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench for permission to continue as Trustee hereunder or resign.

**10.9** **Investment of Monies Held by Trustee** 

(a) Unless otherwise provided in this Indenture, any monies held by the Trustee, which, under the trusts of this
Indenture, may or ought to be invested or which may be on deposit with the Trustee or which may be in the hands of the Trustee, may be invested and reinvested in the name or under the control of the Trustee in any of the securities, accounts, notes
certificates and deposits described in paragraphs (b) and (c) of the definition of Cash Equivalents, *provided* that such securities are expressed to mature within 90 days after their purchase by the Trustee or such shorter period as
required or selected by the Issuer to facilitate any payments expected to be made under this Indenture, after their purchase by the Trustee, and unless and until the Trustee shall have declared the principal of and Premium, if any, and interest on
the Notes to be due and payable, the Trustee shall so invest such monies pursuant to an Issuer Order given in a reasonably timely manner. Pending the investment of any monies as hereinbefore provided, such monies may be deposited in the name of the
Trustee in any chartered bank of Canada or, with the consent of the Issuer, in the deposit department of the Trustee or any other loan or trust company authorized to accept deposits under the laws of Canada or any province thereof at the rate of
interest, if any, then current on similar deposits.

(b) Unless and until the Trustee shall have declared the principal of and Premium, if any, and interest on any
Notes to be due and payable, the Trustee shall pay over to the Issuer all interest received by the Trustee in respect of any investments or deposits made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.9.

------

**10.10** **Trustee Not Ordinarily Bound** 

Except as provided in Section 6.2 and as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Trustee shall not, subject to Section 10.3, be bound to give notice to any Person of the execution hereof, nor to do, observe or perform or see to the observance or performance by the Issuer of any of the obligations herein imposed upon the Issuer or of the covenants on the part of the Issuer herein contained, nor in any way to supervise or interfere with the conduct of the Issuer's business, unless the Trustee shall have been required to do so in writing by the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding or by any Extraordinary Resolution of the Holders passed in accordance with the provisions contained in Article 8, and then only after it shall have been funded and indemnified to its satisfaction against all actions, proceedings, claims and demands to which it may render itself liable and all costs, charges, damages and expenses which it may incur by so doing.

**10.13** **Conditions Precedent to Trustee's Obligations to Act Hereunder** 

(a) The obligation of the Trustee to commence or continue any act, action or proceeding for the purpose of
enforcing the rights of the Trustee and of the Holders hereunder shall be conditional upon any one or more Holders furnishing when required by notice in writing by the Trustee, sufficient funds to commence or continue such act, action or proceeding
and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to protect and hold harmless the Trustee against the costs, charges and expenses and liabilities to be incurred thereby and any loss and damage it may suffer by reason thereof.

(b) None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers unless indemnified as aforesaid.

(c) The Trustee may, before commencing or at any time during the continuance of any such act, action or proceeding
require the Holders of Notes at whose instance it is acting to deposit with the Trustee such Notes held by them for which Notes the Trustee shall issue receipts.

------

**10.14** **Authority to Carry on Business** 

The Trustee represents to the Issuer that at the date of execution and delivery by it of this Indenture it is authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in all provinces of Canada but if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.14, it ceases to be so authorized to carry on business, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and the securities issued hereunder shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only of such event but the Trustee shall, within 90 days after ceasing to be authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in any province of Canada, either become so authorized or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.2.

shareholders from and against any and all loss, damages, charges, expenses, claims, demands, actions or liability whatsoever which may be brought against the Trustee or which it may suffer or incur as a result of or arising out of the performance of
its duties and obligations hereunder save only in the event of the gross negligence, wilful misconduct or bad faith of the Trustee. This indemnity will survive the termination or discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the

The Trustee shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever, the Trustee, in its sole judgment, acting reasonably, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Trustee, in its sole judgment, acting reasonably, determine at any time that its acting under this Indenture has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on 10 days' prior written notice sent to all parties hereto; *provided* that (A) the written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (B) if such circumstances are rectified to the Trustee's satisfaction within such 10 day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.

**ARTICLE 12** 

**<u>SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES</u>**

**12.1** **Guarantee** 

(a) Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance hereof, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such
parties that the guarantee by such Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Bankruptcy Law or Canadian or United States federal, provincial or state law or the provisions of its local
law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance. To effect the foregoing intention, the Holders and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall,
after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under
its Guarantee or pursuant to Section 12.1(c), result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under any such federal, provincial or state law.

------

(b) Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, fully, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, to
each Holder, and to the Trustee in its individual capacity and on behalf of each Holder, the punctual payment and performance when due of all present and future Indenture Obligations which, for purposes of its Guarantee, shall also be deemed to
include (to the extent not otherwise included) all commissions, fees, charges, costs, liabilities and other expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel) arising out of or incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in
connection with the enforcement of any Guarantee, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and the Trustee from all losses, damages, costs, expenses and liabilities suffered or incurred by the Holders and the Trustee resulting or
arising from or relating to any failure by the Issuer to unconditionally and irrevocably pay in full or fully perform the Indenture Obligations as and when due; *provided* that the amount of such indemnification shall not exceed the amount of
such Indenture Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Indenture Obligations and would be owed by the Issuer to such Holder or the
Trustee under the Notes or this Indenture but for the fact that they are unenforceable, reduced, limited, suspended or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Issuer. Each Guarantee
shall be a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

(c) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree, among
themselves and not for the purpose of limiting the full, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable nature of their guarantee, that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Guarantor (a "**Funding Guarantor**") under its
Guarantee, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor (if any) in a pro rata amount based on the portion of the Consolidated Tangible Assets that is attributable to each Guarantor (including the Funding
Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by the Funding Guarantor in discharging its obligations pursuant to its Guarantee.

**12.2** **Guarantee Absolute** 

Each Guarantor guarantees that the Notes shall be paid or performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Holder with respect thereto. The obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee are independent of the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor to enforce its Guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or whether the Issuer or any other Guarantor is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be absolute and unconditional and the liability and obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall not be released, discharged, mitigated, waived, impaired or affected in whole or in part by:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Indenture or the Notes with respect to the Issuer or any
Guarantor or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Indenture
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Indenture, including any increase in the Indenture Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Issuer or otherwise;

------

(c) the failure to give notice to the Guarantor of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under the
provisions of this Indenture or the Notes;

(d) any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee, for all or any
of the Indenture Obligations;

(e) any failure, omission, delay by or inability on the part of the Trustee or the Holders to assert or exercise
any right, power or remedy conferred on the Trustee or the Holders in this Indenture or the Notes;

(f) any change in the corporate structure or other legal structure, or termination, dissolution, amalgamation,
consolidation or merger of the Issuer or any Guarantor with or into any other Person, the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the
marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition with the creditors, or readjustment of, or other
similar proceedings affecting the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any of the assets of any of them;

(g) the assignment of any right, title or interest of the Trustee or any Holder in this Indenture or the Notes to
any other Person; or

(h) any other event or circumstance (including any statute of limitations), whether foreseen or unforeseen and
whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, that might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a discharge of, the Issuer or a Guarantor, other than payment in full of the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer; it being the intent
of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by payment and performance of all such Indenture Obligations.

The Guarantee of each Guarantor shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Holder or the Trustee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Each Guarantor further agrees, to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so, that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand: (i) the Maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of this Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby; and (ii) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee. This Section shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by the Trustee or any Holder in reliance upon such amount required to be returned. This Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

------

**12.3** **Waivers** 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) notice of the acceptance of
its Guarantee and notice of the existence, renewal, extension or the non-performance, non-payment, or non-observance on the part
of the Issuer of any of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Indenture or the Notes or any other notice whatsoever to or upon the Issuer or such Guarantor with respect to the Indenture Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby
acknowledges communication to it of the terms of this Indenture and the Notes and all of the provisions herein and therein contained and consents to and approves the same. Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law)
diligence, presentment and protest.

(b) Without prejudice to any of the rights or recourse which the Trustee or the Holders may have against the
Issuer, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law) any right to require the Trustee or the Holders to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) initiate or exhaust any rights, remedies or recourse against the Issuer, any Guarantor or any other Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) value, realize upon, or dispose of any security of the Issuer or any other Person held by the Trustee or the
Holders; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) initiate or exhaust any other remedy which the Trustee or the Holders may have in law or equity, before
requiring,

becoming entitled to or demanding payment from such Guarantor under this Guarantee.

**12.4** **Subrogation** 

Each Guarantor shall not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Guarantee, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until all the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer shall have been paid in full in cash. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights at any time when all such Indenture Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders and the Trustee and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, to be credited and applied to the Indenture Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

**12.5** **No Waiver; Remedies** 

No failure on the part of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

**12.6** **Continuing Guarantee; No Right of Set-Off; Independent Obligation** 

(a) This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee of the payment and performance of all of Indenture Obligations and
shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full in cash of all such Indenture Obligations and shall apply to and secure any ultimate balance due or remaining unpaid to the Trustee or the Holders under this Indenture or the Notes; and
this Guarantee shall not be considered as wholly or partially satisfied by the payment or liquidation at any time or from time to time of any sum of money for the time being due or remaining unpaid to the Trustee or the Holders.

------

(b) Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that the Indenture Obligations shall be paid to the Trustee without set off or
counterclaim or other reduction whatsoever (whether for taxes, withholding or otherwise), in lawful currency of Canada.

(c) Each Guarantor guarantees that the Indenture Obligations shall be paid strictly in accordance with their terms
regardless of any lack of validity or enforceability of any of such terms or the rights of the Holders with respect thereto.

(d) Each Guarantor's liability to pay or perform or cause the performance of the Indenture Obligations under
this Guarantee shall arise forthwith after demand for payment or performance by the Trustee has been given to such Guarantor in the manner prescribed in this Indenture.

**12.7** **Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms** 

Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Guarantor, which amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance is otherwise not prohibited by this Indenture.

**12.8** **Benefits Acknowledged** 

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its guarantee and waivers pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

**12.9** **Expenses** 

Each Guarantor agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses on a solicitor-client full indemnity basis) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under the Guarantees.

**12.10** **Release of Guarantee** 

A Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under its Guarantee and its obligations under this Indenture after the occurrence of any of the following:

(a) (i) any sale, exchange or transfer (by amalgamation, merger, consolidation or

otherwise) of the Equity Interests of such Guarantor after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, which sale, exchange or transfer does not violate the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the proper designation of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if that Guarantor ceases to guarantee any Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or to be liable for any
Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary), except if the release or discharge thereof results from a demand for payment under such guarantee; *provided* that such Guarantor has not incurred any
Indebtedness in reliance on its status as a Guarantor under Section 5.10 unless such Guarantor's obligations under such Indebtedness are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary
(other than a Guarantor) under Section 5.10(b); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as provided under Article 7; and

(b) the Issuer delivering to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating
that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the release of such Guarantor's Guarantee have been complied with.

Upon delivery to the Trustee the documents required by Section 12.10(b), the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer in writing in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee.

6.00% Senior Notes due 2028

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

<u>1.</u> <u>Interest</u>. Parkland Corporation, a corporation amalgamated under the laws of the Province of Alberta and any successor thereto ("**Parkland**" or the "**Issuer**") promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 6.00% Senior Note due 2028 (a "**Note**") at a fixed rate of 6.00% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest in Canadian dollars (except as otherwise provided herein) semi-annually in arrears on June 23 and December 23 in each year, commencing on December 23, 2020 (each an "**Interest Payment Date**") or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest shall accrue solely as a result of such delayed payment. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the date of issuance to, but excluding, the next interest payment date. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue instalments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest on the Notes shall be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; provided that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day. For purposes of disclosure under the *Interest Act* (Canada), whenever interest is calculated under this Note on the basis of a year which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as an annual rate by multiplying such rate of interest by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such calendar year, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the deemed year.

Interest hereon shall be payable by cheque mailed by prepaid ordinary mail or by electronic transfer of funds to the registered holder hereof and, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the mailing of such cheque or the electronic transfer of such funds shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby (plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld), satisfy and discharge all liability for interest on this Note.

<u>2.</u> <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on June 8 and December 8 preceding the Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day), even if such Notes are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.15 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest.

------

The principal hereof may become or be declared due and payable before the Stated Maturity in the events, in the manner, with the effect and at the times provided in the Indenture.

materially different than the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such change, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such change (an "**Accounting Change** "). Such notice (an "**Accounting Change Notice**") shall describe the nature of the Accounting Change, its effect on the Issuer's current and immediately prior year's financial statements in accordance with GAAP and state whether the Issuer desires to revise the method
of calculating the applicable Financial Term (including the revision of any of the defined terms used in the determination of such Financial Term) in order that amounts determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change and the revised method
of calculating such Financial Term will approximate the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such Accounting Change and without giving effect to the revised method of calculating such Financial Term. The Accounting Change Notice
shall be delivered to the Trustee within 90 days of the end of the fiscal quarter in which the Accounting Change is implemented or, if such Accounting Change is implemented in the fourth fiscal quarter or in respect of an entire fiscal year, within

no notice of a desire to revise the method of calculating the Financial Term in respect of an Accounting Change is given by the Issuer within the applicable time period described above, the method of calculating the Financial Term shall not be
revised in response to such Accounting Change and all amounts to be determined pursuant to the Financial Term shall be determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change.

Any such ratio or basket shall be calculated

------

on a *pro forma* basis, including with such adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the *pro forma* adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio," after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had been consummated at the beginning of the applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Transaction; *provided* that if the Issuer elects to make such determination as of the date of such definitive agreement(s), then (a) the Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with such ratios or baskets solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) are permitted under this Indenture, and (b) such ratios or baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related transactions; *provided, further*, that if the Issuer elects to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement(s), any such transactions (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreement(s) is entered into and shall be deemed outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any ratios or baskets under this Indenture after the date of such definitive agreement(s) and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, unless such definitive agreement(s) is terminated or such Limited Condition Transaction or incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares or such other transaction to which *pro forma* effect is being given does not occur. The Trustee will have no responsibility to make any calculations pursuant to this Section 1.16.

disposition or enforcement of the Notes or the receipt of payments thereunder;

beneficial owner of the Notes to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and such Holder or beneficial owner is legally
eligible to comply with, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to enable the
Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Notes or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be delivered
within 60 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to
the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settler with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner
who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any combination of (i) through (ix).

redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The
Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

beneficial owner of a Note (other than an Excluded Holder) and upon written request reimburse each such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note for the amount of (i) any taxes so levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such
Holder or beneficial owner of a Note as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes, and (ii) any taxes levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note with respect to any

directors or officers of the Issuer, holding office at the time of signing. An electronic or facsimile signature upon a Note shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the signature of the individual whose signature it purports to be.
Notwithstanding that any individual whose signature, either manual or in facsimile or other electronic means, appears on a Note as a director or officer may no longer hold such office at the date of the Note or at the date of the authentication and
delivery thereof, such Note shall be valid and binding upon the Issuer and the Holder thereof shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

(b) No Notes will be entitled to any right or benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose unless such Notes have been authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee substantially in the form provided for herein. Such authentication upon any Notes will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Notes have been duly

or warranty of the Trustee as to the validity of this Indenture or of any Notes or their issuance (except the due authentication thereof by the Trustee) or as to the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under this Indenture or any Notes and
the Trustee will be in no respect liable or answerable for the use made of the proceeds of such Notes. The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes issued under this Indenture will constitute a representation and warranty by
the Trustee that such Notes have been duly authenticated by and on behalf of the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture.

**2.8** **Appointment of Trustee and Depositary** 

(a) The Trustee will be the trustee for the Notes, subject to Article 10.

(b) The Issuer initially appoints CDS to act as Depository with respect to the Notes.

**2.9** **Registrar and Paying Agent** 

(a) The Issuer shall maintain for the Notes an office or agency where such Notes may be presented for registration
of transfer or for exchange ()"**Registrar**") and an office or agency where such Notes may be surrendered for payment ()"**Paying Agent** "). The Registrar shall keep a register of such Notes and of their transfer and
exchange.

(b) The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more
additional paying agents for the Notes in such other locations as it shall determine. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term "Paying Agent" includes any additional
paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Registrar or Paying Agent which is not a party to this Indenture. The Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar for the Notes.

(c) The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee at its corporate office in Calgary, Alberta to act as the Registrar,

**2.10** **Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust** 

The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent, other than the Trustee, to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will, and the Trustee when acting as Paying Agent agrees that it will, hold in trust, for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, Premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any money disbursed by it. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

------

**2.11** **Book Entry Only Notes** 

(a) Subject to Section 3.2(b) and the provisions of the Notes, Notes shall be issued as a Book Entry Only
Notes represented by a Global Note. Each Global Note authenticated in accordance with this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depository designated for such Global Note or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depository or a nominee
thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Note shall constitute a single Note for all purposes of this Indenture. Beneficial interests in a Global Note will not be shown on the register or the records maintained by the Depository but will
be represented through book entry accounts of Participants on behalf of the Beneficial Holders of such Global Note in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository. None of the Issuer or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or
liability for any aspects of the records relating to or payments made by any Depository on account of the beneficial interest in any Global Notes or for maintaining, reviewing or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests therein.
Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, Beneficial Holders of Global Notes shall not be entitled to have Notes registered in their names, shall not receive or be entitled to receive Definitive Notes and shall not be considered owners or
holders thereof under this Indenture. Nothing herein shall prevent the Beneficial Holders from voting such Global Notes using duly executed proxies.

(b) Every Note authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of a Global Note, or in exchange for or in
lieu of a Global Note or any portion thereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, unless such Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository for such Global Notes or a nominee
thereof.

**2.12** **Global Notes** 

Notes issued to a Depository in the form of Global Notes shall be subject to the following in addition to the provisions of Section 3.2, unless and until Definitive Notes have been issued to Beneficial Holders pursuant to Section 3.2(b):

(a) the Trustee may deal with such Depository for all purposes as the sole holder of the Notes and as the
authorized representative of the Beneficial Holders of such Notes;

(b) the rights of the Beneficial Holders of such Notes shall be exercised only through such Depository and the
rights of Beneficial Holders shall be limited to those established by applicable law and agreements between the Depository and the Participants and between such Participants and Beneficial Holders, and must be exercised through a Participant in
accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository;

(c) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of
Holders evidencing a specified percentage of the outstanding Notes, the Depository shall be deemed to be counted in that percentage to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Beneficial Holders or Participants;

------

(d) such Depository will make book-entry transfers among the direct Participants of such Depository and will
receive and transmit distributions of principal, Premium and interest on the Notes to such direct Participants for subsequent payment to the Beneficial Holders thereof;

(e) the direct Participants of such Depository shall have no rights under this Indenture or under or with respect
to any of the Notes held on their behalf by such Depository, and such Depository may be treated by the Trustee and its agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the Notes represented by such Global Notes for all purposes
whatsoever; and

(f) whenever a notice or other communication is required to be provided to Holders, the Trustee shall provide all
such notices and communications to the Depository for subsequent delivery of such notices and communications to the Beneficial Holders in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation and the procedures of the Depository.

**2.13 Interim Notes** 

Pending the delivery of Definitive Notes to the Trustee, the Issuer may issue and the Trustee authenticate in lieu thereof (but subject to the same provisions, conditions and limitations as set forth in this Indenture) interim printed, mimeographed or typewriter Notes in such forms and in such denominations and signed in such manner as provided herein, entitling the holders thereof to Definitive Notes when the same are ready for delivery; or the Issuer may execute and deliver to the Trustee and the Trustee authenticate a temporary Note for the whole principal amount of Notes then authorized to be issued hereunder and thereupon the Trustee may issue its own interim certificates in such form and in such amounts, not exceeding in the aggregate the principal amount of the temporary Note so delivered to it, as the Issuer and the Trustee may approve entitling the holders thereof to Definitive Notes when the same are ready for delivery; and, when so issued and certified, such interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates shall, for all purposes but without duplication, rank in respect of this Indenture equally with Notes duly issued hereunder and, pending the exchange thereof for Definitive Notes, the holders of the interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates shall be deemed without duplication to be Holders and entitled to the benefit of this Indenture to the same extent and in the same manner as though the said exchange had actually been made. Forthwith after the Issuer shall have delivered the Definitive Notes to the Trustee, the Trustee shall call in for exchange all temporary or interim Notes or certificates that shall have been issued and forthwith after such exchange shall cancel the same. No charge shall be made by the Issuer or the Trustee to the holders of such interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates for the exchange thereof. All interest paid upon interim or temporary Notes or certificates shall be noted thereon as a condition precedent to such payment unless paid by cheque to the registered holders thereof.

------

**2.14 Mutilation, Loss, Theft or Destruction** 

In case any of the Notes issued hereunder shall become mutilated or be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Issuer, in its discretion, may issue, and thereupon the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Note, or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, in lieu of and in substitution for the same, and the substituted Note shall be in a form approved by the Trustee and shall entitle the Holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture and shall rank equally in accordance with its terms with all other Notes issued or to be issued hereunder. In case of loss, theft or destruction the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Trustee such evidence of the loss, theft or destruction of the Note as shall be satisfactory to them in their discretion and shall also furnish an indemnity and surety bond satisfactory to them in their discretion. The applicant shall pay all reasonable expenses incidental to the issuance of any substituted Note.

**2.15** **Concerning Interest** 

(a) All Notes issued hereunder, whether originally or upon exchange or in substitution for previously issued Notes
(including for certainty Notes issued under Sections 2.13 and 2.14), shall accrue and bear interest (i) from and including their respective issue date, or (ii) from and including the last Interest Payment Date therefor to which interest
shall have been paid or made available for payment on such outstanding Notes, whichever shall be the later, in all cases, to and excluding the next Interest Payment Date therefor.

(b) Subject to accrual of any interest on unpaid interest from time to time, interest on a Note will cease to
accrue from the Maturity of such Note (including, for certainty, if such Note was called for redemption, the Redemption Date); unless upon due presentation and surrender of such Note for payment on or after the Maturity thereof, such payment is
improperly withheld or refused.

(c) If the date for payment of any amount of principal, Premium or interest in respect of a Note is not a Business
Day at the place of payment, then payment thereof will be made on the next Business Day and the Holder of such Note will not be entitled to any further interest on such principal, or to any interest on such interest, Premium or other amount so
payable, in respect of the period from the date for payment to such next Business Day.

(d) The Holder of any Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment
Date shall be entitled to receive the interest, if any, payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Note subsequent to such Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, except if and to the extent
the Issuer shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, in which case such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Holder of such Note as at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be not
less than two Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of all affected Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date.

(e) Wherever in this Indenture or any Note there is mention, in any context, of the payment of interest, such
mention is deemed to include the payment of interest on amounts in default to the extent that, in such context, such interest is, was or would be payable pursuant to this Indenture or the Note, and express mention of interest on amounts in default
in any of the provisions of this Indenture will not be construed as excluding such interest in those provisions of this Indenture where such express mention is not made.

------

(f) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture or the terms of any Note, interest on the Notes shall
be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; *provided* that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and
the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day. For purposes of disclosure under the *Interest Act* (Canada), whenever interest is calculated under a Note on the basis of a year which contains fewer
days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as an annual rate by multiplying such rate of interest by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such
calendar year, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the deemed year.

**2.16** **Payments of Amounts Due on Maturity** 

(a) Subject to Section 2.16(b), the following provisions shall apply to all Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of fully registered Notes, the Issuer shall establish and maintain with the Paying Agent a Maturity
Account for the Notes. On or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for the Notes, the Issuer shall deposit in the applicable Maturity Account by wire transfer or certified cheque an amount sufficient to
pay all amounts payable in respect of the outstanding Notes (less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Paying Agent will pay to each Holder of such Notes entitled to receive payment, the principal amount of, and
Premium (if any) on, such Notes, upon surrender of such Notes to the Paying Agent or at any branch of the Trustee designated for such purpose from time to time by the Issuer and the Trustee. The deposit or making available of such amounts into the
applicable Maturity Account will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the deposit or making available of funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any taxes deducted
or withheld as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture to such extent and such Holder will have no other right than to receive out of the money so deposited or made available the amount to
which it is entitled. Failure to make a deposit or make funds available as required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(i) will constitute Default in payment on the Notes in respect of which the deposit or making available of funds was
required to have been made; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Notes issued and outstanding in the form of or represented by Global Notes, on or before
11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for such Notes, the Issuer shall deliver to the Depository by electronic funds transfer an amount sufficient to pay the amount payable in respect of such Global Notes
(less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Issuer shall pay to the Depository the principal amount of, and Premium (if any) on, such Global Notes, against receipt of the relevant Global Notes. The delivery of such
electronic funds to the Depository will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the electronic funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any Taxes

------

deducted or withheld as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture unless such electronic funds transfer is not received. Failure to make delivery of funds available as required pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) will constitute Default in payment on the Notes in respect of which the delivery or making available of funds was required to have been made.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 2.16(a), all payments in excess of $25 million (or such other amount as
determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to disburse funds pursuant to
Section 2.16(a)(i) unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable on the applicable date of Maturity. The Paying Agent
shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the
same are drawn.

**2.17** **Legends on Notes** 

(a) Unless otherwise provided in the Notes, Notes will not be registered under any United States federal or state
securities laws, and any Notes issued and sold in the United States or to or for the account of U.S. persons (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) will be issued and sold only to Persons who are QIBs within the
meaning of, and in reliance on, Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act, as well as all Notes issued in exchange for or in substitution of the foregoing securities, and shall bear, unless otherwise directed by the Issuer, a legend substantially in
the following form (the "**144A U.S. Legend** "):

"THE NOTES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF PARKLAND CORPORATION (THE "**ISSUER**") THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE ISSUER, (B) INSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT ("**RULE 144A**") TO A PERSON IT REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A) THAT PURCHASES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER AND TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A, (C) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (D) PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, OR (E) PURSUANT TO ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION, AND IN THE CASE OF (D) OR (E), AFTER AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER HAS BEEN FURNISHED TO THE ISSUER.

------

IF THESE SECURITIES ARE BEING SOLD IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, A NEW CERTIFICATE BEARING NO LEGEND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND A DULY EXECUTED DECLARATION (AND, IF REQUIRED BY COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL), IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA AND THE ISSUER, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE SALE OF THESE SECURITIES IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT."

In addition, the Trustee understands and acknowledges that, subject to Section 3.6, Notes will also bear the Canadian Private Placement Legend until such legend is no longer required under Applicable Securities Legislation.

(b) The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the
public under Applicable Securities Legislation. The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes, and each Note issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, will bear a legend in substantially the following form (the
" **Canadian Private Placement Legend**") until the legend is no longer required under Applicable Securities Legislation:

"UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE MUST NOT TRADE THIS NOTE BEFORE [*INSERT DATE WHICH IS FOUR MONTHS AND A DAY AFTER ISSUE DATE*]"

(c) Each Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, subject to such modification as
required by the applicable Depository (the "**Global Note Legend** "):

"THIS NOTE IS A GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREIN REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO OR EXCHANGED FOR NOTES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF AND NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE. EVERY NOTE AUTHENTICATED AND DELIVERED UPON REGISTRATION OF, TRANSFER OF, OR IN EXCHANGE FOR, OR IN LIEU OF, THIS NOTE SHALL BE A GLOBAL NOTE SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, EXCEPT IN SUCH LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.

------

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

(d) Prior to the issuance of Notes, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, concerning which Notes are to
be certificated and are to bear the legend or legends described in this Section 2.17.

**2.18** **Payment of Interest** 

(a) As interest becomes due on each fully registered Note (except on redemption thereof, when interest may at the
option of the Issuer be paid upon surrender of such Note), the Issuer, either directly or through the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, shall send or forward by prepaid ordinary mail, electronic transfer of funds or such other means as may be
agreed to by the Trustee, payment of such interest including any Additional Amounts (less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom) to the order of the Holder of such Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately
preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date and addressed to the Holder at the Holder's last address appearing on the register (or in the case of joint Holders, to such address of one of the joint Holders), unless such Holder otherwise
directs. If payment is made by cheque, such cheque shall be forwarded at least two days prior to each Interest Payment Date and if payment is made by other means (such as electronic transfer of funds; *provided* that the Trustee must receive
confirmation of receipt of funds prior to being able to wire funds to Holders), such payment shall be made in a manner whereby the Holder receives credit for such payment on the Interest Payment Date. The mailing of such cheque or the making of such
payment by other means shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby, plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld as aforesaid, satisfy and discharge all liability for interest including any Additional Amounts on such Note to such
extent, unless in the case of payment by cheque, such cheque is not paid at par on presentation. In the event of non-receipt of any cheque for or other payment of interest by the Person to whom it is so sent
as aforesaid, the Issuer shall issue to such Person a replacement cheque or other payment for a like amount upon being furnished with such evidence of non-receipt as it shall reasonably require and upon being
indemnified to its satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuer is prevented by circumstances beyond its control (including, without limitation, any interruption in mail service) from making payment of any interest due on any Note in
the manner provided above, the Issuer may make payment of such interest or make such interest available for payment in any other manner acceptable to the Trustee with the same effect as though payment had been made in the manner provided above. If
payment is made through the Trustee, by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related

------

Interest Payment Date for a Note or to the date of mailing the cheques for the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, whichever is earlier, the Issuer shall deliver sufficient funds to the Trustee by electronic transfer or certified cheque or make such other arrangements for the provision of funds as may be agreeable between the Trustee and the Issuer in order to effect such interest payment hereunder.

(b) So long as the Notes or any portion thereof are issued in the form of or represented by a Global Note, then all
payments of interest on such Global Note shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related Interest Payment Date by electronic funds transfer made payable to the Depository or its nominee for subsequent
payment to Beneficial Holders of the applicable interests in that Global Note, unless the Issuer and the Depository otherwise agree.

(c) Notwithstanding Sections 2.18(a) and 2.18(b), all payments in excess of $25 million (or such other amount
as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor Paying Agent, as applicable, shall have any obligation to disburse funds in respect of any
Note pursuant to Section 2.18(a) unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable with respect to such Interest Payment
Date for such Note. The Trustee or Paying Agent, as applicable, shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be
determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

**2.19** **Record of Payment** 

The Trustee will maintain accounts and records evidencing any payment, by it or any other Paying Agent on behalf of the Issuer, of principal, Premium (if any) and interest in respect of Notes, which accounts and records will constitute, in the absence of manifest error, *prima facie* evidence of such payment.

**2.20** **Representation Regarding Third Party Interest** 

The Issuer hereby represents to the Trustee that any account to be opened by, or interest to be held by, the Trustee in connection with this Indenture, for or to the credit of the Issuer, either (a) is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party; or (b) is intended to be used by or on behalf of a third party, in which case the Issuer hereby agrees to complete, execute and deliver forthwith to the Trustee a declaration, in the Trustee's prescribed form or in such other form as may be reasonably satisfactory to it, as to the particulars of such third party.

**ARTICLE 3** 

**<u>REGISTRATION, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE AND OWNERSHIP</u>**

**3.1** **Register of Certificated Notes** 

(a) With respect to Notes issuable in whole or in part as registered Notes, the Issuer shall cause to be kept by
and at the principal office of the Trustee in Calgary, Alberta or by such other Registrar as the Issuer, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as may be specified in the Notes or as the Issuer may
designate with the approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the names and addresses of the Holders and particulars of the Notes held by them respectively and of all transfers of Notes. Such registration shall be noted on the
relevant Notes by the Trustee or other Registrar unless a new Note shall be issued upon such transfer.

(b) No transfer of a registered Note shall be valid unless made on such register referred to in Section 3.1(a)
by the Holder or such Holder's executors, administrators or other legal representatives or an attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and executed in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee or other Registrar upon surrender of
the Notes together with a duly executed form of transfer acceptable to the Trustee or other Registrar and upon compliance with such other reasonable requirements as the Trustee or other Registrar may prescribe, and unless the name of the transferee
shall have been noted on the Note by the Trustee or other Registrar.

**3.2** **Global Notes** 

(a) With respect to Notes issuable as or represented by, in whole or in part, one or more Global Notes, the Issuer
shall cause to be kept by and at the principal office of the Trustee in Calgary, Alberta or by such other Registrar as the Issuer, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as the Issuer may designate with
the approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the name and address of the Holder of each such Global Note (being the Depository, or its nominee, for such Global Note) and particulars of the Global Note held by it, and of all
transfers thereof. If any Notes are at any time not Global Notes, the provisions of Section 3.1 shall govern with respect to registrations and transfers of such Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, a Global Note may not be transferred by the Holder
thereof and, accordingly, subject to Section 3.6, no Definitive Notes shall be issued to Beneficial Holders except in the following circumstances or as otherwise specified in a resolution of the Trustee, a Board Resolution or an Officers'
Certificate:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Definitive Notes may be issued to Beneficial Holders at any time after:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has determined that CDS (1) is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for Global Notes,
or (2) ceases to be eligible to be a Depository, and, in each case the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor to its reasonable satisfaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Issuer has determined, in its sole discretion, or is required by law, to terminate the book-entry only
registration system in respect of such Global Notes and has communicated such determination or requirement to the Trustee in writing, or the book-entry system ceases to exist; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Trustee has determined that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to Notes issued
as Global Notes; *provided* that Beneficial Holders representing, in the aggregate, not less than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes advise the Depository in writing, through the Participants, that the continuation
of the book-entry only registration system for the Notes is no longer in their best interests; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Global Notes may be transferred (A) if such transfer is required by applicable law, as determined by the
Issuer and Counsel, or (B) by a Depository to a nominee of such Depository, or by a nominee of a Depository to such Depository, or to another nominee of such Depository, or by a Depository or its nominee to a successor Depository or its
nominee.

(c) Upon the termination of the book-entry only registration system on the occurrence of one of the conditions
specified in Section 3.2(b)(i) or upon the transfer of a Global Note to a Person other than a Depository or a nominee thereof in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(i)(A), the Trustee shall notify all Beneficial Holders, through the Depository,
of the availability of Definitive Notes. Upon surrender by the Depository of the Global Notes and receipt of new registration instructions from the Depository, the Trustee shall deliver the Definitive Notes to the Beneficial Holders thereof in
accordance with the new registration instructions and thereafter, the registration and transfer of such Notes will be governed by Section 3.1 and the remaining provisions of this Article 3.

(d) It is expressly acknowledged that transfer of beneficial ownership in any Note issuable in the form of or
represented by a Global Note will be effected only (i) with respect to the interests of participants in the Depository ()"**Participants** "), through records maintained by the Depository or its nominee for the Global Note, and
(ii) with respect to interests of Persons other than Participants, through records maintained by Participants. Beneficial Holders who are not Participants but who desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of or other interest in
Notes represented by a Global Note may do so only through a Participant.

**3.3** **Transferee Entitled to Registration** 

The transferee of a Note shall be entitled, after the appropriate form of transfer is deposited with the Trustee or other Registrar and upon compliance with all other conditions for such transfer required by this Indenture or by law, to be entered on the register as the owner of such Note free from all equities or rights of set-off or counterclaim between the Issuer and the transferor or any previous Holder of such Note, save in respect of equities of which the Issuer is required to take notice by law (including any statute or order of a court of competent jurisdiction).

**3.4** **No Notice of Trusts** 

None of the Issuer, the Trustee and any Registrar or Paying Agent will be bound to take notice of or see to the performance or observance of any duty owed to a third Person, whether under a trust, express, implied, resulting or constructive, in respect of any Note by the Holder or any Person whom the Issuer or the Trustee treats, as permitted or required by law, as the owner or the Holder of such Note, and may transfer the same on the direction of the Person so treated as the owner or Holder of the Note, whether named as Trustee or otherwise, as though that Person were the Beneficial Holder thereof.

------

**3.5** **Registers Open for Inspection** 

The registers referred to in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall, subject to applicable law, at all reasonable times be open for inspection by the Issuer, the Trustee or any Holder. Every Registrar, including the Trustee, shall from time to time when requested so to do by the Issuer or by the Trustee, in writing, furnish the Issuer or the Trustee, as the case may be, with a list of names and addresses of Holders entered on the registers kept by them and showing the principal amount and serial numbers of the Notes held by each such Holder; *provided* that the Trustee shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee to provide such a list.

**3.6** **Transfers and Exchanges of Notes**

If a notice of redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice of redemption shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) by the redemption date as stated in such notice, or by the redemption date as so delayed. The Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer's obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person. In addition, unless all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Redemption Notice shall specify:

(a) the distinguishing letters and numbers of the Notes which are to be redeemed (as are registered in the name of
such Holder);

------

(b) if such Notes are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to
identify the Notes so selected;

(c) in the case of Global Notes, that the redemption will take place in such manner as may be agreed upon by the
Depository, the Trustee and the Issuer; and

(d) in all cases, the principal amounts of such Notes or, if any such Note is to be redeemed in part only, the
principal amount of such part.

Notwithstanding Section 13.2, in the event that all Notes to be redeemed are Global Notes, publication of the Redemption Notice shall not be required.

**4.7** **Notes Due on Redemption Dates** 

Upon a Redemption Notice having been given as provided in Section 4.6, all the Notes so called for redemption or the principal amount to be redeemed of the Notes called for redemption, as the case may be, shall thereupon be and become due and payable at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to but excluding the Redemption Date, on the Redemption Date specified in such notice, in the same manner and with the same effect as if it were the Stated Maturity specified in such Notes, anything therein or herein to the contrary notwithstanding. From and after such Redemption Date, if the monies necessary to redeem such Notes shall have been deposited as provided in Section 4.8 and affidavits or other proof satisfactory to the Trustee as to the publication and/or mailing of such Redemption Notices shall have been lodged with it, interest upon the Notes shall cease. If any question shall arise as to whether any notice has been given as above provided and such deposit made, such question shall be decided by the Trustee whose decision shall be final and binding upon all parties in interest.

**4.8** **Deposit of Redemption Monies** 

(a) Upon Notes being called for redemption, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or any Paying Agent to the
order of the Trustee, on or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date specified in the Redemption Notice, such sums of money as may be sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes so called for
redemption, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to but excluding the Redemption Date and including any Additional Amounts, less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom. The Issuer shall also deposit with the Trustee a
sum of money sufficient to pay any charges or expenses which may be incurred by the Trustee in connection with such redemption. Every such deposit shall be irrevocable. From the sums so deposited, the Trustee shall pay or cause to be paid, to the
Holders of such Notes so called for redemption, upon surrender of such Notes, the principal, Premium (if any) and interest (if any) to which they are respectively entitled on redemption.

------

(b) Payment of funds to the Trustee upon redemption of Notes shall be made by electronic transfer or certified
cheque or pursuant to such other arrangements for the provision of funds as may be agreed between the Issuer and the Trustee in order to effect such payment hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) all payments in excess of
$25 million (or such other amount as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association) shall be made by the use of the LVTS; and (ii) in the event that payment must be made to the Depository, the Issuer shall remit payment
to the Trustee by LVTS. The Trustee shall have no obligation to disburse funds pursuant to this Section 4.8 unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in
full all amounts due and payable on the applicable Redemption Date. The Trustee shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques
shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

**4.9** **Failure to Surrender Notes Called for Redemption** 

In case the Holder of any Note so called for redemption shall fail on or before the Redemption Date so to surrender such Holder's Note, or shall not within such time specified on the Redemption Notice accept payment of the redemption monies payable, or give such receipt therefor, if any, as the Trustee may require, such redemption monies may be set aside in trust, without interest, either in the deposit department of the Trustee or in a chartered bank, and such setting aside shall for all purposes be deemed a payment to the Holder of the sum so set aside and, to that extent, such Note shall thereafter not be considered as outstanding hereunder and the Holder thereof shall have no other right except to receive payment of the Redemption Price of such Note, plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date and including any Additional Amounts, less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld, out of the monies so paid and deposited, upon surrender and delivery up of such Holder's relevant Note. In the event that any money required to be deposited hereunder with the Trustee or any Paying Agent on account of principal, Premium, if any, or interest, if any, on Notes issued hereunder shall remain so deposited for a period of six years from the Redemption Date, then such monies, together with any accumulated interest thereon, shall at the end of such period be paid over or delivered over by the Trustee or such Paying Agent to the Issuer on its demand, and thereupon the Trustee shall not be responsible to Holders of such Notes for any amounts owing to them and subject to applicable law, thereafter the Holders of such Notes in respect of which such money was so repaid to the Issuer shall have no rights in respect thereof except to obtain payment of the money due from the Issuer, subject to any limitation period provided by the laws of Alberta.

**4.10** **Cancellation of Notes Redeemed** 

Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.5 and 4.11 as to Notes redeemed or purchased in part, all Notes redeemed and paid under this Article 4 shall forthwith be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution for those redeemed.

------

**4.11** **Purchase of Notes for Cancellation** 

(a) The Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, purchase or otherwise acquire Notes, whether pursuant to a
tender offer, open market purchase, negotiated transactions or otherwise, at any price, in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation; *provided* that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such acquisition
does not otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture. All Notes so purchased may, at the option of the Issuer, be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution therefor.

(b) If, upon an invitation for tenders, more Notes are tendered at the same lowest price than the Issuer is
prepared to accept, the Notes to be purchased by the Issuer shall be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis or in such other manner as the Issuer directs in writing and as consented to by the exchange, if any, on which Notes are then listed
which the Trustee considers appropriate, from the Notes tendered by each tendering Holder thereof who tendered at such lowest price. For this purpose the Trustee may make, and from time to time amend, regulations with respect to the manner in which
Notes may be so selected, and regulations so made shall be valid and binding upon all Holders thereof, notwithstanding the fact that as a result thereof one or more of such Notes become subject to purchase in part only. The Holder of a Note of which
a part only is purchased, upon surrender of such Note for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such Holder, one or more new Notes for the unpurchased part so surrendered, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such new
Note or Notes upon receipt of the Note so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Note, the Depository shall make notations on the applicable Global Note of the principal amount thereof so purchased.

**ARTICLE 5** 

**<u>COVENANTS OF THE ISSUER</u>**

As long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer hereby covenants and agrees with the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders as follows (unless and for so long as the Issuer and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries are the only Holders (or Beneficial Holders) of the outstanding Notes, in which case the following provisions of this Article 5 shall not apply):

the Business Day prior to the relevant payment date (or otherwise as specified in this Indenture in respect of such payment) Canadian dollars in immediately available funds sufficient to pay all principal, Premium and interest then due and the
Trustee is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

(b) The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue principal and Premium, if any, at the rate of interest applicable to the Notes, and it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue instalments of interest (without regard to any
applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful.

for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer and Guarantors in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of
such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

(b) The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such
other office or agency.

Issuer.

(along with customary comparative results) and (B) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, unaudited financial statements for the interim period as at, and for the period ending on, the end of
such fiscal quarter (along with comparative results for the corresponding interim period in the prior year), in each case, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" with
respect to the periods presented and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer's certified independent accountants; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) within 10 days after the occurrence of each event constituting a "material change" (as defined in
the *Securities Act* (Alberta)) that would have been required to be reported (pursuant to applicable rules and regulations in effect on the Issue Date) in a report under the *Securities Act* (Alberta) if the Issuer had been a
"reporting issuer" under the *Securities Act* (Alberta), a report containing substantially all of the information that would have been required to be contained (pursuant to the *Securities Act* (Alberta) and applicable rules
and regulations thereunder) in such report,

------

*provided, however*, that (x) Financial Reports shall be deemed to have been provided to the Trustee and the Holders once filed on the SEDAR website at <u>www.SEDAR.com</u> and (y) Financial Reports will not be required to include any reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with respect to financial information reported pursuant to GAAP.

(b) If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and
annual financial information required by Section 5.3(a) will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, or in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries excluding such Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(c) If and for so long as any Notes remain outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the
meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the U.S. Securities Act, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information
required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act (for so long as such information is required in order to permit resales of the Notes pursuant to Rule 144A).

(d) Unless the Financial Reports are available on SEDAR or any successor system thereto, the Issuer will also
maintain a website to which the Beneficial Holders are given free access and on which, not later than the date by which the Financial Reports are required to be provided to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.3(a), such Financial Reports are made
available. Making such Financial Reports so available shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of 5.3(a) that such Financial Reports be provided to the Trustee and delivered to the Holders.

(e) Unless the Issuer is a "reporting issuer" (or its equivalent) required to file information with one
or more securities regulators in Canada, no later than five Business Days after the date the annual and quarterly Financial Reports have been furnished pursuant to Section 5.3(a)(i), the Issuer shall also hold a live quarterly conference call
with the opportunity for participants to ask questions of management. No fewer than three Business Days prior to the date such conference call is to be held, the Issuer shall issue a press release (which release shall be immediately filed on SEDAR
or any successor system thereto or, if the applicable Canadian securities regulators do not permit such filing, immediately provided to the Trustee and the Holders) announcing such quarterly conference call, which press release shall contain the
time and the date of such conference call and direct the recipients thereof to contact an individual at the Issuer (for whom contact information shall be provided in such notice) to obtain information on how to access such quarterly conference call.

(f) The Trustee will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing or posting of such financial statements
and reports has occurred; delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or
determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer's compliance with any of its covenants under the indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely on Officer's Certificates).

------

**5.4** **Compliance Certificate.** 

(a) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year beginning with the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, an Officers' Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing
Officers with a view to determining whether each has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that, to his or her knowledge, each entity has
kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that, to his or her knowledge, no event has occurred and

The Issuer shall and shall cause each of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, file all tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments and governmental levies imposed on them or any of their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes, assessments and levies have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on properties or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; *provided* that neither the Issuer nor any Restricted Subsidiary need pay any such taxes or claim if (a) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary or (b) the non-payment of all such taxes in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, affairs or financial condition of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

------

**5.6** **Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.** 

The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Restricted Payment;

(c) The amount of each Restricted Payment (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of such
Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian
dollar-denominated restriction on Restricted Payments denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent amount of such Restricted Payment shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that
such Restricted Payment was made.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that any Restricted Payment (or a
portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments described in clauses (i) through (xvi) above or one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments (or portions of any of the foregoing) or
pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may order and classify, and subsequently reorder and reclassify (based on circumstances existing at the time of such reorder or reclassification) such Restricted

**5.9** **Dividends and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries** 

(a) Subject to Section 5.9(b), the Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or permit to become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) pay dividends or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Equity Interests to the Issuer or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Shares in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends
or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Equity Interests);

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) make loans or advances, or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed, to the Issuer or any other Restricted
Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to other Indebtedness or obligations incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

(b) Section 5.9(a) will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) encumbrances or restrictions existing under agreements existing on the Issue Date (including, without
limitation, the Credit Agreement and agreements relating to the Existing Notes) as in effect on that date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) encumbrances or restrictions existing under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any instrument governing Acquired Indebtedness or Equity Interests of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries, which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person or the properties or assets of the Person so acquired (including after-acquired
property);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in
existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the
property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired (including after acquired property);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing of an
agreement referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), or (x) of this Section 5.9(b); *provided, however*, that such amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings, taken
as a whole, are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, not materially more restrictive than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 5.9(b) on the
Issue Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was amalgamated or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of applicable law, regulation or order;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) non-assignment provisions of any contract or any lease entered into in
the ordinary course of business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) in the case of 5.9(a)(iii), Liens permitted to be incurred under Section 5.13 that limit the right of the
debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) restrictions imposed under any agreement to sell Equity Interests or assets, as permitted under this Indenture,
to any Person pending the closing of such sale;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any other agreement governing Indebtedness or other obligations entered into after the Issue Date if
(A) such agreement contains encumbrances and restrictions that are not materially more restrictive (taken as a whole) with respect to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries than those in effect on the Issue Date with respect to that Restricted
Subsidiary pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date or (B) any such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness is not expected, as determined by the Issuer in good faith, to result in a failure by the Issuer to be able
to make scheduled payments of cash interest and principal on the Notes when due;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) customary provisions in partnership agreements, limited liability company organizational governance documents,
joint venture agreements, shareholder agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business that restrict the disposition or distribution of ownership interests in or assets of such partnership, limited liability
company, joint venture, corporation or similar Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xii) Capitalized Lease Obligations, Purchase Money Obligations and any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof
incurred in compliance with Section 5.10 that impose restrictions of the nature described in Section 5.9(a)(iii) on the assets leased or acquired;

contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business; and

**5.10** **Limitations in Incurrence of Indebtedness** 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur
any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); *provided* that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur additional Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), in each case, if, after giving effect thereto on a *pro forma* basis, (i) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default will have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a
consequence of incurring the Indebtedness or entering into the transactions relating to such incurrence.

------

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.10(a), each of the following incurrences of Indebtedness shall be permitted
(" **Permitted Indebtedness** "):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Indebtedness of the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under the Credit Facilities in an aggregate
principal amount at any time outstanding, including the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers' acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers' acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the
face amount thereof) not to exceed the greater of (A) $2,000 million or (B) 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow during the most recent four consecutive full fiscal quarters for which financial statements prepared on a
consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP are available (determined at the time of incurrence after giving effect to the *pro forma* adjustments set forth in the definition of "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio"); *provided, however*, that the amount permitted to be incurred under Credit Facilities pursuant to clause (B) of this section (i) shall be increased to up to 4.0 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) in respect of
Indebtedness incurred on the closing date of any Significant Acquisition (the "**Significant Acquisition Closing Date**") or within two Business Days of such Significant Acquisition Closing Date so long as the portion of any such
incurred Indebtedness which exceeds 3.5 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) is incurred to finance, directly or indirectly, such Significant Acquisition (in which case such excess portion of the Indebtedness is
referred to as an "**Incremental Acquisition Financing** "); and provided further that any Incremental Acquisition Financing that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs in reliance on the foregoing proviso shall be
permanently repaid by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries under such Credit Facilities within 180 days after the Significant Acquisition Closing Date unless (and solely to the extent) that at the expiration of such 180 day period the Issuer
and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be permitted to incur the portion of the Incremental Acquisition Financing that remains outstanding at such time pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of this section (i);

(ii) Indebtedness represented by the Notes issued on the Issue Date and the Guarantees;

(iii) Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent outstanding on the Issue Date after

(iv) guarantees by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture; *provided* that in the event such Indebtedness that is being guaranteed is Subordinated Indebtedness, then the related guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantees, as
the case may be;

(v) [Intentionally Deleted];

------

(vi) Indebtedness of the Issuer owed to and held by a Restricted Subsidiary and Indebtedness of any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries owed to and held by the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; *provided, however,* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) if the Issuer is the obligor on Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if a Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) (1) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests or any other event which results in any such
Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; and (2) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; shall be deemed, in
each case of this clause (C), to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, not permitted by this clause (vi);

(vii) Indebtedness in respect of workers' compensation claims, bank guarantees, letters of credit, warehouse
receipt or similar facilities, property, casualty or liability insurance, take-or-pay obligations in supply arrangements, self-insurance obligations or completion,

services in the ordinary course of business and on customary terms and conditions that are customary in the Permitted Business, and other than the extension of credit represented by such letter of credit, guarantee or completion, performance, bid,
appeal or surety bond itself);

(viii) Purchase Money Obligations and Capitalized Lease Obligations incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary after the Issue Date, and Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred pursuant to clause (xi), in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (A) $375 million and (B) 6% of the
Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets (determined at the time of incurrence), *plus*, in each case, the amount of fees, expenses and premiums incurred in connection with any refinancing thereof;

(ix) Indebtedness arising from the honouring by a bank or other financial institution of a cheque, draft or similar
instrument inadvertently (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn against insufficient funds, in each case in the ordinary course of business;

(x) Indebtedness arising in connection with endorsement of instruments for deposit in the ordinary course of
business;

(xi) Refinancing Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to Indebtedness that
was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under 5.10(a), clauses (ii), (iii), (viii), this clause (xi), or clause (xviii) below;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xii) indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn-out or similar
obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business or assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary, other than guarantees of
Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Equity Interests for the purpose of financing or in contemplation of any such acquisition;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xiii) Indebtedness in respect of Specified Cash Management Agreements entered into in the ordinary course of
business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xiv) Indebtedness of Persons incurred and outstanding on the date on which such Person was acquired by the Issuer or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or amalgamated, merged or consolidated with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such acquisition, amalgamation,
merger or consolidation); *provided, however*, that at the time such Person or assets is/are acquired by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, or amalgamated, merged or consolidated with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and
after giving *pro forma* effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (xiv) and any other related Indebtedness, either (A) the Issuer would have been able to incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to
section 5.10(a) or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such acquisition, amalgamation,
merger or consolidation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xv) Indebtedness representing deferred compensation to directors, officers, members of management or employees (in
their capacities as such) of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and incurred in the ordinary course of business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xvi) daylight loans incurred for bona fide tax planning purposes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xvii) unsecured obligations owing under letters of credit, letters of guarantee, performance guarantees and similar
instruments by one or more financial institutions which are guaranteed by Export Development Canada pursuant to its "Performance Security Guarantee" program (or any replacement program thereto) in any aggregate principal amount not to
exceed $150 million; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xviii) additional Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount
which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xviii) and then outstanding and all Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred pursuant to clause (xi), will not exceed
the greater of (A) $400 million and (B) 6% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets (determined at the time of incurrence).

------

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 5.10:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted
Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 5.10(a), the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness and may divide and
classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described therein (except that Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred under clause (b)(i) of
Section 5.10(b)), and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) (*provided* that at the time of reclassification it meets the criteria in such category or
categories);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the
determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could have incurred such Indebtedness;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to
the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Indebtedness of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or
amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed to have been incurred by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
(or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under this Section 5.10, the Issuer shall be in Default of this
covenant; *provided* that any Indebtedness of such Person that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon consummation of the transaction by which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) will be deemed to not be Indebtedness for the purposes of this Section 5.10.

(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence
of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date
that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; *provided* that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign
currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian dollar-denominated
restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to
refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that
is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

**5.11** **Limitation on Asset Sales** 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly,
consummate any Asset Sale unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Sale; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; for the purposes of this Section 5.11(a)(ii) only, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the amount (without duplication) of any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer's most recent consolidated
balance sheet, of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed or forgiven by the transferee of any such assets
pursuant to a novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary against further liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount of any securities, notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days
after such Asset Sale converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Fair Market Value of (1) any assets (other than securities) received by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to be used by it in a Permitted Business, (2) Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
acquisition of such Person by the Issuer or (3) a combination of (1) and (2); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time
outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

(b) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in
accordance with this Section 5.11.

------

(c) Notwithstanding Section 5.11(a), the 75% limitation referred to in Section 5.11(a)(ii) shall be
deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with this Section 5.11 on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

(d) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary may, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) repay, redeem or otherwise retire (A) obligations under the Credit Agreement, (B) Indebtedness (other
than Disqualified Equity Interests or *Subordinated Indebtedness*) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, and/or (C) Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien (in each case other than any
Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) and, if the obligations repaid are in respect of revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently
reduce commitments with respect thereto;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) repay, redeem or otherwise retire obligations under other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary
(in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); *provided* that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce obligations
under the Notes as provided under Section 4.2, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 5.11(f) for a Net Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) make any capital expenditure or otherwise invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in
the purchase of assets (other than securities and excluding working capital or current assets for the avoidance of doubt) to be used by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity
Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

------

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of Net Available Proceeds are not invested or reinvested as contemplated by clause (iii) within 365 days of receipt thereof, but the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has, within 365 days of receipt of such Net Restricted Proceeds, entered into a binding contractual commitment upon customary conditions (including a purchase agreement or purchase order) to make such investments, then the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have invested such Net Available Proceeds in accordance with clause (iii); *provided* that, in the event and to the extent such investment shall not be completed in whole or in part in accordance with such binding contractual commitment within 180 days after entering into such binding contractual commitment, such binding contractual commitment shall have been terminated in whole or in part, such investment shall be abandoned in whole or in part, or such Net Available Proceeds are not otherwise applied to fund such investment in whole or in part, then the Net Available Proceeds (or balance of Net Available Proceeds related to the non-completed portion of a binding contractual commitment in the event of a partial completion, termination, abandonment or application) shall be applied as described in Section 5.11(f). The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this Section 5.11(d) will constitute "**Excess Proceeds**".

(e) Pending the final application of any Net Available Proceeds pursuant to this Section 5.11, the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary holding such Net Available Proceeds may apply such Net Available Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Proceeds in any manner not
prohibited by this Indenture.

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (f) (i) | On the 366th day after an Asset Sale (or, at the Issuer's option, an earlier date or any later date contemplated by Section 5.11(d)), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $100 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase or redeem (a "**Net Proceeds Offer**") from all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase or redeem such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes, and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Net Proceeds Offer applies that may be purchased or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make an Net Proceeds Offer as described in
Section 5.11(f)(i), the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an
informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no earlier than
30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

------

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (g) (i) | The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the "**Net Proceeds Offer Period**"). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the "**Net Proceeds Purchase Date**"), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this covenant (the "**Net Proceeds Offer Amount**") or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer.  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment
date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Net Proceeds
Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a
pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer, or if less
than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this covenant and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all
certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Net
Proceeds Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or Pari
Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an
Officers' Certificate from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; *provided* that each such new Note will be in a
minimum denomination in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Note not so
accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

(h) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly
tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate
principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on
the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net
Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions described under Section 5.14 and/or Article 9 and not by the provisions of this Asset Sale covenant.

(j) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.11:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.11; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an
election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

(k) The Issuer will comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation, and any other applicable laws and
regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any Applicable Securities Legislation or applicable laws and regulations conflict with this Section 5.11, the Issuer
shall comply with the Applicable Securities Legislation and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 5.11 by virtue of such compliance.

**5.12** **Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates** 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one
transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the
benefit of, any Affiliate (an "**Affiliate Transaction**") involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $25 million, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm's length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of $75 million, an Officer
of the Issuer has determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i); and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of $100 million, a
resolution has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

(b) The restrictions in Section 5.12(a) shall not apply to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) transactions exclusively between or among (A) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or
(B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) director, trustee, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including pursuant
to any employment agreement or any retirement, health, stock option or other benefit plan), payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees of the Issuer and indemnification arrangements, in each case, as reasonably determined in good
faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors or senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Permitted Investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with Section 5.8;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a
whole, is not, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer in any material respect than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an
Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) (A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or the proceeds therefrom or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Guarantees by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the performance obligations of Unrestricted
Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (excluding guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a
letter from a Canadian or U.S. nationally recognized accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of
5.12(a)(i); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Financing.

------

**5.13** **Limitation on Liens** 

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its or their property or assets (including Equity Interests of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, which Lien secures Indebtedness, unless contemporaneously with the incurrence of such Lien:

(a) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks *pari passu* with the Notes or a Guarantee,
effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and

(b) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or a
Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

in each case, for so long as such obligation is secured by such Lien.

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "Increased Amount" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (a) through (ee) of the definition of "Permitted Liens," the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify and redivide any Lien described in clauses (a) through (ee) of the definition of "Permitted Liens" (provided that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

**5.14** **Offer to Purchase Notes upon Change of Control** 

(a) Subject to Section 5.14(h), upon the occurrence of any Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the
Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as described under Section 4.2, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer purchase all or any portion (in minimum denominations equal to
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer described in Section 5.14(b) (the "**Change of Control Offer**") for a cash price (the "**Change of Control Purchase Price**") equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the "**Change of Control Payment Date** ").

(b) No later than 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) offering to purchase, pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, on the Change of Control Payment Date specified
in such notice, which shall be a Business Day not earlier than 30 days nor, unless such Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event as contemplated by Section 5.14(h), later than 60 days from the
date such notice is delivered, and for the Change of Control Purchase Price, all Notes properly tendered by such Holder pursuant to such Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) describing the procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that Holders must
follow to accept the Change of Control Offer, to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

(c) On the Business Day immediately preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent
lawful, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered.

(d) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in minimum denominations equal to $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes accepted together with an Officers' Certificate
stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

of Control Purchase Price for such Notes, with such payment to be made through the facilities of the Depository for all Global Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new
Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes so tendered, if any; *provided* that each such new Note will be in a in minimum denomination in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof.

(f) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest
payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date.

------

(g) A Change of Control Offer will be required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or for such longer
period as is required by law. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(h) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event and
a Holder will not have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase any Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer if (i) a third party makes an offer to purchase the Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in substantial compliance
with the requirements set forth in this Section 5.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, or (ii) a Redemption Notice has
been given pursuant to Section 4.2 unless and until there is a Default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.14, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a
third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of
Control Offer is made.

(i) The Issuer will comply with Applicable Securities Legislation and any other applicable laws and regulations in
connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Applicable Securities Legislation or other applicable laws and regulations conflict with the requirements of this Section 5.14,

(j) The provisions in this Indenture relating to the Issuer's obligation to make a Change of Control Offer
may be waived, modified or terminated with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

(k) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes
accept a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 days' nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the
purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a Redemption Price equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price plus, to the extent not included in the Change of
Control Purchase Price, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on
or prior to the Redemption Date).

Subject to Section 5.14 and Article 9, as the case may be, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary and the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; *provided* that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Issuer shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

**5.16** **Business Activities** 

The Issuer will engage, and will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to engage, only in businesses that, when considered together as a single enterprise, are primarily the Permitted Business.

**5.17** **Additional Guarantees** 

(a) If any of Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor incurs or guarantees any Triggering
Indebtedness, then the Issuer shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 days a supplemental indenture
in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver to the Trustee one or more Opinions of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee that such Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary.

Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

(b) The Issuer may also elect to cause any other Restricted Subsidiary to issue a Guarantee and become a Guarantor.

**5.18** **Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted** 

(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to Section 5.20(b), designate any Subsidiary (including
any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a
" **Designation** "); *provided* that:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation
(unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer would be permitted to make, at the time of such Designation, (A) a Permitted Investment or
(B) an Investment pursuant to Section 5.8, in either case, in an amount (the "**Designation Amount**") equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on the date such Subsidiary is Designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any
agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding, taken as a whole, are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or
the Restricted Subsidiary than those that would be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Subsidiary has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any
Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless such guarantee is released concurrent with such Designation.

(b) For purposes of any Designation, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries
(except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of "Investment." Such Designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such
amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(c) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a
" **Redesignation**") only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Redesignation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) all Liens upon property of such Unrestricted Subsidiary existing at the time of such Redesignation would be
permitted Section 5.13;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by such Unrestricted Subsidiary will be
deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and any such designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time in compliance with Section 5.8;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Redesignation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any
outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such Redesignation will only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 5.10, calculated on a *pro forma* basis as if such designation had occurred at the
beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) if required pursuant to Section 5.17, such Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor pursuant to such
Section within 10 Business Days of the date on which it is so designated.

**5.19** **Further Instruments and Acts** 

Upon request by the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.

**5.20** **Covenant Termination** 

(a) Following the first date that (a) the Notes have a rating equal to or higher than "BBB-" (or the equivalent) by S&P, "Baa3" (or equivalent) by Moody's or "BBB (low) (or equivalent)" by DBRS (or, if any such agency ceases to rate the Notes for reasons
outside of the control of the Issuer, the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any other "designated rating organization" within the meaning of National Instrument 51-102 *Continuous Disclosure Obligations* that is selected by the Issuer, which shall be substituted for any or all of S&P, Moody's or DBRS, as the case may be) and (b) no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the following provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Section 5.17(a); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Section 9.1(a)(iii),

(collectively, the "**Eliminated Covenants**").

(b) After the Eliminated Covenants have been terminated in accordance with Section 5.20(a), the Issuer may not
designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

**5.21** **SEC Reporting Covenant**

The Issuer covenants to the Trustee that in the event that (a) any class of its securities shall become registered pursuant to Section 12 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act or the Issuer shall incur a

------

(i) any Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantee
and this Indenture) or is declared null and void and unenforceable or found to be invalid or any Guarantor denies its liability under the Guarantee of such Guarantor (other than by reason of release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture and such Guarantee).

**6.2** **Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, Annulment and Waiver** 

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) with respect to
the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the
Trustee, may declare (an "**acceleration declaration**") all amounts owing under the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration, the aggregate principal (and Premium, if any) of and accrued and unpaid interest on
the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) occurs with respect to the Issuer, then the principal of (and Premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on all
of the outstanding Notes will thereupon become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Issuer shall deliver to the
Trustee, within 10 days after the occurrence thereof, notice of any Payment Default or acceleration referred to in Section 6.1(e).

(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due
has been obtained by the Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the
Issuer, the Holders and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts
of principal of (and Premium, if any) or interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Notes (or any of
them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any Event of Default if, in the Trustee's opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor, and in such event
to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences;

*provided* that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

------

(c) Notwithstanding Section 6.2(a), in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes
because an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged
or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by
the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not
been cured or waived during such period.

(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the
Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Premium, if any, on, or
the principal of, the Notes.

**6.3** **Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee** 

(a) The Issuer covenants that if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Default is made in the payment of any instalment of interest on any Note when such interest becomes due and
payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Default is made in the payment of the principal of (or Premium, if any on) any Note at the Maturity thereof and
such default continues for a period of three Business Days,

the Issuer will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal (and Premium, if any) and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and Premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue instalment of interest, at the rate borne by the Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

(b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of
an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor (including the
Guarantors, if any) upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

------

(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

**6.4** **Trustee May File Proofs of Claim** 

(a) In case of any pending receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer and its debts or any other obligor upon the Notes (including the Guarantors, if any), and their debts or the Property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the
payment of overdue principal (and Premium, if any) or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and Premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same,

and any Custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder.

(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt
on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

**6.5** **Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes** 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the rateable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

------

**6.6** **Application of Monies by Trustee** 

(a) Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6
shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or Premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of
the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) first, in payment or in reimbursement to the Trustee of its reasonable compensation, costs, charges, expenses,
borrowings, advances or other monies furnished or provided by or at the instance of the Trustee in or about the execution of its trusts under, or otherwise in relation to, this Indenture, with interest thereon as herein provided;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) second, but subject as hereinafter in this Section 6.6 provided, in payment, rateably and proportionately
to the Holders, of the principal of and Premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on the Notes which shall then be outstanding in the priority of principal first and then Premium and then accrued and unpaid
interest and interest on amounts in default unless otherwise directed by Extraordinary Resolution and in that case in such order or priority as between principal, Premium (if any) and interest as may be directed by such resolution; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) third, in payment of the surplus, if any, of such monies to the Issuer or its assigns and/or the Guarantors, as
the case may be;

*provided, however*, that no payment shall be made pursuant to clause (ii) in respect of the principal, Premium or interest on any Notes held, directly or indirectly, by or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than any Notes pledged for value and in good faith to a Person other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer but only to the extent of such Person's interest therein), except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal, Premium (if any) and interest (if any) on all Notes which are not so held.

(b) The Trustee shall not be bound to apply or make any partial or interim payment of any monies coming into its
hands if the amount so received by it, after reserving thereout such amount as the Trustee may think necessary to provide for the payments mentioned in Section 6.6(a), is insufficient to make a distribution of at least 2% of the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Notes, but it may retain the money so received by it and invest or deposit the same as provided in Section 10.9 until the money or the investments representing the same, with the income derived therefrom,
together with any other monies for the time being under its control shall be sufficient for the said purpose or until it shall consider it advisable to apply the same in the manner hereinbefore set forth. The foregoing shall, however, not apply to a
final payment or distribution hereunder.

------

**6.7** **No Suits by Holders** 

Except to enforce payment of the principal of, and Premium (if any) or interest on any Note (after giving effect to any applicable grace period specified therefor in Section 6.1(a)), no Holder shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a liquidator, trustee or receiver or for a receiving order under any Bankruptcy Laws or to have the Issuer or any Guarantor wound up or to file or prove a claim in any liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) the Holder gives the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes make a written request
to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liability or
expense;

(d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of
indemnity; and

(e) during such 60 day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do
not give the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request, it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to
affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and
rateable benefit of all the Holders.

**6.8** **Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest** 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Holder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein of the principal of (and Premium, if any) and interest on the Notes held by such Holder on the applicable Maturity date and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

**6.9** **Restoration of Rights and Remedies** 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantors (if any), the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

**6.10** **Rights and Remedies Cumulative** 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

------

**6.11** **Delay or Omission Not Waiver** 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

**6.12** **Direction by Holders** 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee. However, subject to Subject to Section 10.3, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes.

**6.13** **Notice of Event of Default** 

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 13.2; *provided* that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.

**6.14** **Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws** 

The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

**6.15** **Undertaking for Costs** 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant.

------

**6.16** **Judgment Against the Issuer** 

The Issuer covenants and agrees with the Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Holders, judgment may be rendered against it in favour of the Holders or in favour of the Trustee, as trustee for the Holders, for any amount which may remain due in respect of the Notes and Premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

**6.17** **Immunity of Officers and Others** 

No director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Issuer, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Issuer is a trustee or carrier will have any liability for any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Notes or this Indenture or of any Guarantor under its Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release provided for in this Section 6.17 are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes and the Guarantees.

**6.18** **Notice of Payment by Trustee** 

Not less than 15 days' notice shall be given in the manner provided in Section 13.2 by the Trustee to the Holders of Notes of any payment to be made under this Article 6. Such notice shall state the time when and place where such payment is to be made and also the liability under this Indenture to which it is to be applied. After the day so fixed, unless payment shall have been duly demanded and have been refused, the Holders of Notes will be entitled to interest only on the balance (if any) of the principal monies, Premium (if any) and interest due (if any) to them, respectively, on the Notes, after deduction of the respective amounts payable in respect thereof on the day so fixed.

**6.19** **Trustee May Demand Production of Notes** 

The Trustee shall have the right to demand production of the Notes in respect of which any payment of principal, interest or Premium (if any) required by this Article 6 is made and may cause to be endorsed on the same a memorandum of the amount so paid and the date of payment, but the Trustee may, in its discretion, dispense with such production and endorsement, upon such indemnity being given to it and to the Issuer as the Trustee shall deem sufficient.

**ARTICLE 7** 

**<u>DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE</u>**

**7.1** **Satisfaction and Discharge** 

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect (except as to rights of transfer or exchange of Notes which shall survive until all Notes have been cancelled and the rights, protections and immunities of the Trustee) as to all outstanding Notes when either:

(a) all the Notes that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have
been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from this trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation;
or

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (b) (i) | all Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation otherwise (A) have become due and payable, or (B) will become due and payable within one year by reason of a notice of redemption or otherwise, and, in any case, the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in Canadian dollars, Canadian Government Obligations or a combination of any of the foregoing, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without consideration of any reinvestment of interest) to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness (including all principal, Premium (if any) and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption) under the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation;  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer has paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture; and

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i), the provisions of Sections 7.7 and 7.8 will survive.

**7.2** **Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance** 

The Issuer may, at the option of the Board of Directors of the Issuer evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers' Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 7.3 or 7.4 applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article 7.

**7.3** **Legal Defeasance and Discharge** 

(a) Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.3, the
Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations, other than the provisions contemplated to survive as set forth below, with
respect to all outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "**Legal Defeasance** "). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be

------

deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees thereof), which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of Sections 7.6 and 7.8 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, this Indenture and the Guarantees (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the rights of Holders of such Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, Premium, if any, and

connection therewith under Sections 7.6, 7.7 and 7.8 and Article 10; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) this Section 7.3.

(b) Subject to compliance with Section 7.2, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 7.3
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 7.4.

**7.4 Covenant Defeasance** 

Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.4, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, be released from each of their obligations under Sections 5.3, 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11, 5.12, 5.13, 5.14, 5.16, 5.17, 5.18 and 9.1(a)(iii) (collectively, the "**Defeased Covenants**") with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 7.5 are satisfied (hereinafter, "**Covenant Defeasance**"), and such Notes shall thereafter be deemed not "outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders thereof (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with the Defeased Covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any Defeased Covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, such Notes and the obligations of the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.4, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, the events specified in Sections 6.1(c), 6.1(d), 6.1(e), 6.1(f), 6.1(g), 6.1(h) and 6.1(i) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default.

------

**7.5** **Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance** 

(a) In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance under Section 7.3 or Covenant Defeasance under
Section 7.4:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders and free
and clear of any Liens or adverse claims, cash in Canadian dollars, non-callable Canadian Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee, to pay the principal of, Premium (if any) and interest on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment
thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be;

(ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by the Internal Revenue Service, a ruling; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law;

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon this Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S.
federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(iv) in the case of Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and qualified to practice in Canada or a ruling from Canada Revenue Agency to the effect that Holders of the outstanding Notes who are not resident in Canada should not recognize income, gain
or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, and should be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, had not occurred;

(v) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either (A) on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings), or (B) insofar as Defaults from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on
the 91st day after the date of deposit;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, after the expiration of three
months from the date of deposit and assuming that no intervening bankruptcy event has taken place in respect of the Issuer or any Guarantor between the date of deposit and the expiration of such three month period and assuming that no Holder was a non-arm's length party with respect to the Issuer or any Guarantor under applicable bankruptcy law, the deposit does not constitute a preferential payment that will be recoverable by a trustee in bankruptcy in
Canada pursuant to the provisions of the *Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act*, R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3, as amended;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that the conditions precedent provided for in clauses (i) through (viii) have been complied with.

**7.6** **Application of Trust Funds**

to Section 7.1 or 7.5 in respect of Notes shall be held by the Trustee in trust and applied by it in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the
Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and Premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such funds or Canadian Government Obligations has been deposited with the Trustee; *provided* that such funds or
Canadian Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds or obligations except to the extent required by law.

(b) If (x) the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any funds or Canadian Government Obligations in
accordance with Section 7.1 or 7.5 by reason of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application or (y) the funds deposited with the
Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes when due, then the Issuer's obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under this Indenture and the Guarantees will be revived and
reinstated and no such defeasance will be deemed to have

------

occurred; *provided* that if the Issuer or any Guarantor has made any payment in respect of principal of, Premium, if any, or interest on any Notes or, as applicable, other amounts because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer and such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the funds or Canadian Government Obligations held by the Trustee.

**7.7** **Repayment to the Issuer** 

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 7 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any funds or Canadian Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 7.1 or 7.5 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer expressed in a written certification thereof, delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 7.5(a)(i)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to fully satisfy the obligations of the Issuer under Section 7.1(b)(i) or to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

**7.8** **Continuance of Rights, Duties and Obligations** 

(a) Where trust funds or trust property have been deposited pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.5, the Holders and
the Issuer shall continue to have and be subject to their respective rights, duties and obligations under Article 2 and Article 4.

Issuer is required to make an offer to purchase any outstanding Notes pursuant to the terms hereof, the Issuer shall be entitled to use any trust funds or trust property deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.5 for the purpose
of paying to any Holders of such Notes who have accepted any such offer of the total offer price payable in respect of an offer relating to any such Notes. Upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall be entitled to pay to such Holder from
such trust funds or trust property deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.5 in respect of such Notes which is applicable to the Notes held by such Holders who have accepted any such offer of the Issuer (which amount shall be
based on the applicable principal amount of the Notes held by accepting offerees in relation to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all the Notes).

**8.1** **Purpose, Effect and Convention of Meetings** 

(a) Subject to Section 11.2, wherever in this Indenture a consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution
of the Holders (or any of them) is required, a meeting may be convened in accordance with this Article 8 to consider and resolve whether such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution should be approved by such Holders. A resolution
passed by the affirmative votes of the Holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes represented and voting on a poll at a meeting of Holders duly convened for the purpose and held in accordance with the provisions
of this Indenture shall constitute conclusively such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution; *provided* that an Extraordinary Resolution shall be required wherever in this Indenture such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or
resolution of the Holders is required to be approved by Extraordinary Resolution.

------

(b) At any time and from time to time, the Trustee on behalf of the Issuer may and, on receipt of an Issuer Order
or a Holders' Request and upon being indemnified and funded for the costs thereof to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee by the Issuer or the Holders signing such Holders' Request, will, convene a meeting of all Holders.

(c) If the Trustee fails to convene a meeting after being duly requested as aforesaid (and indemnified and funded
as aforesaid), the Issuer or such Holders may themselves convene such meeting and the notice calling such meeting may be signed by such Person as the Issuer or those Holders designate, as applicable. Subject to Section 8.1(d), every such
meeting will be held in Calgary, Alberta or such other place as the Trustee may in any case determine or approve.

(d) A meeting of Holders may be held as a "virtual" or electronic meeting if required or desired by the
Issuer, the Trustee or the Holder(s) so convening the meeting. Such a meeting must allow all Holder(s) electronically present at the meeting to hear the proceedings of the meeting and vote electronically on matters before the meeting.

**8.2** **Notice of Meetings** 

Not more than 60 days' nor less than 21 days' notice of any meeting of the Holders shall be given to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 13.2 and a copy of such notice shall be sent by post to the Trustee, unless the meeting has been called by it, and to the Issuer, unless such meeting has been called by it. Such notice shall state the time when and the place where the meeting is to be held, or if a "virtual" or electronic meeting the electronic link or electronic address for attending the meeting, and shall state briefly the general nature of the business to be transacted thereat and it shall not be necessary for any such notice to set out the terms of any resolution to be proposed or any of the provisions of this Article 8. The accidental omission to give notice of a meeting to any Holder shall not invalidate any resolution passed at any such meeting. A Holder may waive notice of a meeting either before or after the meeting.

**8.3** **Chair** 

Some individual, who need not be a Holder, nominated in writing by the Trustee shall be chair of the meeting and if no individual is so nominated, or if the individual so nominated is not present within 15 minutes from the time fixed for the holding of the meeting, a majority of the Holders present in person or by proxy shall choose some individual present to be chair.

------

**8.4** **Quorum** 

Subject to this Indenture, at any meeting of the Holders, a quorum shall consist of Holders present in person or by proxy (electronically for a "virtual" or electronic meeting) and representing at least 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes. If a quorum of the Holders shall not be present within 30 minutes from the time fixed for holding any meeting, the meeting, if convened by the Holders or pursuant to a Holders' Request, shall be dissolved, but in any other case the meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is not a Business Day in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following Business Day thereafter) at the same time and place and no notice shall be required to be given in respect of such adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the Holders present in person or by proxy (electronically for a "virtual" or electronic meeting) shall constitute a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened notwithstanding that they may not represent 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at an adjourned meeting which might have been brought before or dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same. No business shall be transacted at any meeting unless the required quorum be present at the commencement of business.

The chair of any meeting at which the requisite quorum of the Holders is present may, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes represented thereat, adjourn any such meeting and no notice of such adjournment need be given except such notice, if any, as the meeting may prescribe.

**8.6** **Voting** 

On a poll each Holder present in person or represented by a duly appointed proxy shall be entitled to one vote in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes of which it is the Holder. A proxyholder need not be a Holder. In the case of joint registered Holders of a Note, any one of them present in person or by proxy at the meeting may vote in the absence of the other or others; but in case more than one of them be present in person or by proxy (electronically for a "virtual" or electronic meeting), they shall vote together in respect of the Notes of which they are joint Holders.

**8.7** **Poll** 

A poll will be taken on every resolution and Extraordinary Resolution submitted for approval at a meeting of Holders, in such manner as the chair directs, and the results of such polls shall be binding on all Holders. Every resolution, other than an Extraordinary Resolution, will be decided by a majority of the votes cast on the poll for that resolution. An Extraordinary Resolution will require at least 66<sup>2</sup>/<sub>3</sub>% of the votes cast on the poll for that resolution to be in the affirmative in order for it to be passed.

**8.8** **Proxies** 

A Holder may be present and vote at any meeting of Holders by an authorized representative. The Issuer (in case it convenes the meeting) or the Trustee (in any other case) for the purpose of enabling the Holders to be present and vote at any meeting without producing their Notes, and of enabling them to be present and vote at any such meeting by proxy and of depositing instruments appointing such proxies at some place other than the place where the meeting is to be held, may from time to time make and vary such regulations as it shall think fit providing for and governing any or all of the following matters:

(a) the form of the instrument appointing a proxy, which shall be in writing, and the manner in which the same
shall be executed and the production of the authority of any individual signing on behalf of a Holder;

------

(b) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at such place as the Trustee, the Issuer or the Holder convening
the meeting, as the case may be, may, in the notice convening the meeting, direct and the time, if any, before the holding of the meeting or any adjournment thereof by which the same must be deposited; and

(c) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at some approved place or places, including electronically, other
than the place at which the meeting is to be held and enabling particulars of such instruments appointing proxies to be mailed, faxed, cabled, telegraphed or sent by other electronic means before the meeting to the Issuer or to the Trustee at the
place where the same is to be held and for the voting of proxies so deposited as though the instruments themselves were produced at the meeting.

Any regulations so made shall be binding and effective and the votes given in accordance therewith shall be valid and shall be counted. Save as such regulations may provide, the only Persons who shall be recognized at any meeting as the Holders of any Notes, or as entitled to vote or be present at the meeting in respect thereof, shall be Holders and Persons whom Holders have by instrument in writing duly appointed as their proxies.

**8.9** **Persons Entitled to Attend Meetings** 

The Issuer and the Trustee, by their respective directors, officers and employees and the respective legal advisors of the Issuer, the Trustee or any Holder may attend any meeting of the Holders, including electronically, but shall have no vote as such.

**8.10** **Powers Exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution** 

Subject to Article 11, a meeting of the Holders shall have the following powers exercisable from time to time by Extraordinary Resolution, subject in the case of the matters in paragraphs (g) and (h) to receipt of the prior approval of the exchange, if any, on which any securities of the Issuer are then listed (if required):

proceeding for the purpose of enforcing payment of the principal, Premium or interest on the Notes, or for the execution of any trust or power hereunder;

(c) power to direct any Holder who, as such, has brought any action, suit or proceeding to stay or discontinue or
otherwise deal with the same upon payment, if the taking of such suit, action or proceeding shall have been permitted by Section 6.2, of the costs, charges and expenses reasonably and properly incurred by such Holder in connection therewith;

------

(d) power to assent to any compromise or arrangement with any creditor or creditors or any class or classes of
creditors, whether secured or otherwise, and with holders of any Equity Interests or other securities of the Issuer;

(e) power to appoint a committee with power and authority (subject to such limitations, if any, as may be
prescribed in the resolution) to exercise, and to direct the Trustee to exercise, on behalf of the Holders, such of the powers of the Holders as are exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution or other resolution as shall be included in the resolution
appointing the committee; *provided* that the following terms shall apply to the appointment of such committee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the resolution making such appointment may provide for payment of the expenses and disbursements of and
compensation to such committee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) such committee shall consist of such number of members as shall be prescribed in the resolution appointing it

thereof necessary to constitute a quorum; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) all acts of any such committee within the authority delegated to it shall be binding upon all Holders;

(f) power to remove the Trustee from office and to appoint a new Trustee or Trustees *provided* that no such
removal shall be effective unless and until a new Trustee or Trustees shall have become bound by this Indenture;

(g) power to sanction the exchange of the Notes for or the conversion thereof into shares, units, bonds, notes or
other securities or obligations of the Issuer or of any other Person formed or to be formed;

Obligations received pursuant to a transaction authorized under the provisions of Section 8.10(g); and

(i) power to amend, alter or repeal any Extraordinary Resolution previously passed or sanctioned by the Holders or
by any committee appointed pursuant to Section 8.10(e).

**8.11 Powers Cumulative** 

Any one or more of the powers in this Indenture stated to be exercisable by the Holders by Extraordinary Resolution or otherwise may be exercised from time to time and the exercise of any one or more of such powers from time to time shall not be deemed to exhaust the rights of the Holders to exercise the same or any other such power or powers thereafter from time to time. No powers exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution will derogate in any way from the rights of the Issuer pursuant to this Indenture.

------

**8.12** **Minutes** 

Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting as aforesaid shall be made and duly entered in books to be from time to time provided for that purpose by the Trustee at the expense of the Issuer, and any such minutes as aforesaid, if signed by the chair of the meeting at which such resolutions were passed or proceedings had, or by the chair of the next succeeding meeting of the Holders, shall be prima facie evidence of the matters therein stated and, until the contrary is proved, every such meeting, in respect of the proceedings of which minutes shall have been made, shall be deemed to have been duly held and convened, and all resolutions passed thereat or proceedings taken thereat to have been duly passed and taken.

**8.13** **Instruments in Writing** 

Any consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution of the Holders which may be given by resolution at a meeting of the Holders pursuant to this Article 8 may also be given by the Holders of not less than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes by a signed instrument in one or more counterparts, except for matters required to be approved by Extraordinary Resolution in which case such matter may be approved by an instrument signed by 66<sup>2</sup>/<sub>3</sub>% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes, and the expressions "resolution" or "Extraordinary Resolution" when used in this Indenture will include instruments so signed. Notice of any resolution or Extraordinary Resolution passed in accordance with this Section 8.13 will be given by the Trustee to the affected Holders within 30 days of the date on which such resolution or Extraordinary Resolution was passed.

**8.14** **Binding Effect of Resolutions** 

Every resolution and every Extraordinary Resolution passed in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8 at a meeting of Holders shall be binding upon all the Holders, whether present at or absent from such meeting, and every instrument in writing signed by Holders in accordance with Section 8.13 shall be binding upon all the Holders, whether signatories thereto or not, and each and every Holder and the Trustee (subject to the provisions for its indemnity herein contained) shall, subject to applicable law, be bound to give effect accordingly to every such resolution, Extraordinary Resolution and instrument in writing.

**8.15** **Evidence of Rights of Holders** 

(a) Any request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument which this Indenture may require or permit to be
signed or executed by the Holders may be in any number of concurrent instruments of similar tenor signed or executed by such Holders. Proof of the execution of any such request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument or of a writing
appointing any such attorney will be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture if the fact and date of the execution by any Person of such request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument or writing may be proved by the certificate of any
notary public, or other officer authorized to take acknowledgements of deeds to be recorded at the place where such certificate is made, that the Person signing such request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument or writing acknowledged to

------

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.15(a), the Trustee may, in its discretion, require proof of execution in cases
where it deems proof desirable and may accept such proof as it shall consider proper.

of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer will be the surviving or continuing Person; or

shall be considered to be the Successor in the event of a statutory amalgamation governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof of the Issuer with any other Restricted Subsidiary);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as set forth in
clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

set forth in clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, (A) the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, could incur
$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 5.10(a) or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio for the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such
Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or transfer and such agreement and/or supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture;

*provided* that clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall not apply in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger with or into, or sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposal of or assignment of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to, another Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary.

(b) Except in circumstances providing for the release of a Guarantor described under Section 12.10, no
Guarantor will, and the Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, (A) amalgamate, consolidate or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person
(whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person), or (B) sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of its assets to any Person (other than the Issuer or another Guarantor) unless either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) except in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance, or other
disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and any Guarantor, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease,
transfer, conveyance or other disposition, and such agreements and/or supplemental indenture (if any), comply with this Indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) in the case of a sale or other disposition, the transaction does not violate Section 5.11.

------

For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, the Equity Interests of which constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer, will be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.

substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with this Section 9.1, in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is not the continuing obligor under the Notes or its Guarantee, as applicable, the surviving entity formed by such
amalgamation, merger or consolidation or into which the Issuer or such Guarantor is merged or the Person to which the sale, conveyance, lease, transfer, disposition or assignment is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, the Issuer or such Guarantor under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named therein as the Issuer or such Guarantor and, except in the case of a lease, the
Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes or in respect of its Guarantee, as the case may be, and all of the Issuer's or such Guarantor's other
obligations and covenants under the Notes, this Indenture and its Guarantee, if applicable.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or
into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary, and (ii) the Issuer or any Guarantor may consolidate, merge or amalgamate
with or into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or part of its properties and assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor or merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer solely for the purpose of
reincorporating in Canada or a province thereof, a state of the United States or the District of Columbia, as long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby.

**9.2 Vesting of Powers in Successor** 

Whenever the conditions of Section 9.1 have been duly observed and performed, the Trustee will execute and deliver a Supplemental Indenture as provided for in Section 11.5 and then:

(a) the Successor Person will possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of the
Issuer or Guarantor under this Indenture in the name of the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, or otherwise, and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required to be done or performed by any directors or officers of the Issuer or
Guarantor may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of such successor; and

(b) the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, will be released and discharged from liability under this Indenture and

**ARTICLE 10** 

**<u>CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE</u>**

**10.1** **No Conflict of Interest** 

The Trustee represents to the Issuer that at the date of execution and delivery by it of this Indenture there exists no material conflict of interest in the role of the Trustee as a fiduciary hereunder but if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.1, such a material conflict of interest exists, or hereafter arises, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and the Notes of any series shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such material conflict of interest exists or arises.

**10.2** **Replacement of Trustee** 

(a) The Trustee may resign its trust and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder by giving
to the Issuer 90 days' notice in writing or such shorter notice as the Issuer may accept as sufficient. If at any time a material conflict of interest exists in the Trustee's role as a fiduciary hereunder the Trustee shall, within 30
days after ascertaining that such a material conflict of interest exists, either eliminate such material conflict of interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 10.2. The validity and enforceability of this
Indenture and of the Notes issued hereunder shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such a material conflict of interest exists. In the event of the Trustee resigning or being removed or being dissolved, becoming bankrupt,
going into liquidation or otherwise becoming incapable of acting hereunder, the Issuer shall forthwith appoint a new Trustee unless a new Trustee has already been appointed by the Holders in accordance with the provisions hereof. Failing such
appointment by the Issuer, the retiring Trustee or any Holder may apply to a Judge of the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench, on such notice as such Judge may direct at the Issuer's expense, for the appointment of a new Trustee but any new
Trustee so appointed by the Issuer or by the Court shall be subject to removal as aforesaid by the Holders and the appointment of such new Trustee shall be effective only upon such new Trustee becoming bound by this Indenture. Any new Trustee
appointed under any provision of this Section 10.2 shall be a corporation authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in all of the Provinces of Canada. On any new appointment the new Trustee shall be vested with the same powers,
rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as Trustee.

(b) Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or, with or to which it may be consolidated, amalgamated or
sold, or any entity resulting from any merger, consolidation, sale or amalgamation to which the Trustee shall be a party, shall be the successor Trustee under this Indenture without the execution of any instrument or any further act. Nevertheless,
upon the written request of the successor Trustee or of the Issuer, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver an instrument assigning and transferring to such successor Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the rights, powers and
trusts of the retiring Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all property and money held by such Trustee to the successor Trustee so appointed in its place. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from
the Issuer or any Guarantor be required by any new Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts, then any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall on
request of said new Trustee, be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer or such Guarantor, as applicable.

------

**10.3** **Duties of Trustee** 

In the exercise of the rights, duties and obligations prescribed or conferred by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee shall act honestly and in good faith and exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent Trustee would exercise in comparable circumstances. Subject to the foregoing, the Trustee will be liable for its own wilful misconduct, bad faith and gross negligence. The Trustee will not be liable for any act or default on the part of any agent employed by it or a co-Trustee, or for having permitted any agent or co-Trustee to receive and retain any money payable to the Trustee, except as aforesaid.

**10.4** **Reliance Upon Declarations, Opinions, etc.** 

(a) In the exercise of its rights, duties and obligations hereunder the Trustee may, if acting in good faith and
subject to Section 10.7, rely, as to the truth of the statements and accuracy of the opinions expressed therein, upon statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates furnished pursuant to any covenant, condition or requirement of this
Indenture or required by the Trustee to be furnished to it in the exercise of its rights and duties hereunder, if the Trustee examines such statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates and determines that they comply with
Section 10.5, if applicable, and with any other applicable requirements of this Indenture. The Trustee may nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable. Without restricting the
foregoing, the Trustee may rely on an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee notwithstanding that it is delivered by a solicitor or firm which acts as solicitors for the Issuer.

(b) The Trustee shall have no obligation to ensure or verify compliance with any applicable laws or regulatory
requirements on the issue or transfer of any Notes provided such issue or transfer is effected in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to process all transfers and redemptions upon the presumption that such
transfer and redemption is permissible pursuant to all applicable laws and regulatory requirements if such transfer and redemption is effected in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

The Trustee shall have no obligation, other than to confer with the Issuer and its Counsel, to ensure that legends appearing on the Notes comply with regulatory requirements or securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

------

**10.5** **Evidence and Authority to Trustee, Opinions, etc.** 

(a) The Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee evidence of compliance with the conditions precedent provided for in

auditors or accountants, an opinion or report of the Issuer's Auditors whom the Trustee for such purposes hereby approves, that such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

(b) Whenever such evidence relates to a matter other than the authentication and delivery of Notes and the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such evidence may consist of a report or opinion of any solicitor, auditor, accountant, engineer or appraiser or any other appraiser or any other
individual whose qualifications give authority to a statement made by such individual; *provided* that if such report or opinion is furnished by a director, officer or employee of the Issuer it shall be in the form of a statutory declaration.
Such evidence shall be, so far as appropriate, in accordance with Section 10.5(a).

(c) Each statutory declaration, certificate, opinion or report with respect to compliance with a condition
precedent provided for in this Indenture shall include (i) a statement by the individual giving the evidence that he or she has read and is familiar with those provisions of this Indenture relating to the condition precedent in question,

or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to make the statements or give the opinions contained or expressed therein, and (iv) a statement whether in the opinion of such individual the conditions
precedent in question have been complied with or satisfied.

(d) In addition to its obligations under Section 5.6, the Issuer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Trustee at any time if the Trustee reasonably so requires, an Officers' Certificate certifying that the Issuer has complied with all covenants, conditions or other requirements contained in this Indenture, the non-compliance with which would constitute a Default or an Event of Default, or if such is not the case, specifying the covenant,

------

condition or other requirement which has not been complied with and giving particulars of such non-compliance. The Issuer shall, whenever the Trustee so requires, furnish the Trustee with evidence by way of statutory declaration, opinion, report or certificate as specified by the Trustee as to any action or step required or permitted to be taken by the Issuer or as a result of any obligation imposed by this Indenture.

**10.6 Officers' Certificates Evidence** 

Except as otherwise specifically provided or prescribed by this Indenture, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee, if acting in good faith, may rely upon an Officers' Certificate.

**10.7 Experts, Advisers and Agents** 

Subject to Section 10.4, the Trustee may:

(a) employ or retain and act and rely on the opinion or advice of or information obtained from any solicitor,
auditor, valuator, engineer, surveyor, appraiser or other expert, whether obtained by the Trustee or by the Issuer, or otherwise, and shall not be liable for acting, or refusing to act, in good faith on any such opinion or advice and may pay proper

**ARTICLE 12** 

**<u>SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES</u>**

**12.1** **Guarantee** 

(a) Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance hereof, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such
parties that the guarantee by such Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Bankruptcy Law or Canadian or United States federal, provincial or state law or the provisions of its local
law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance. To effect the foregoing intention, the Holders and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall,
after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under
its Guarantee or pursuant to Section 12.1(c), result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under any such federal, provincial or state law.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, fully, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, to
each Holder, and to the Trustee in its individual capacity and on behalf of each Holder, the punctual payment and performance when due of all present and future Indenture Obligations which, for purposes of its Guarantee, shall also be deemed to
include (to the extent not otherwise included) all commissions, fees, charges, costs, liabilities and other expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel) arising out of or incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in
connection with the enforcement of any Guarantee, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and the Trustee from all losses, damages, costs, expenses and liabilities suffered or incurred by the Holders and the Trustee resulting or
arising from or relating to any failure by the Issuer to unconditionally and irrevocably pay in full or fully perform the Indenture Obligations as and when due; *provided* that the amount of such indemnification shall not exceed the amount of
such Indenture Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Indenture Obligations and would be owed by the Issuer to such Holder or the
Trustee under the Notes or this Indenture but for the fact that they are unenforceable, reduced, limited, suspended or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Issuer. Each Guarantee
shall be a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

(c) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree, among
themselves and not for the purpose of limiting the full, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable nature of their guarantee, that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Guarantor (a "**Funding Guarantor**") under its
Guarantee, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor (if any) in a pro rata amount based on the portion of the Consolidated Tangible Assets that is attributable to each Guarantor (including the Funding
Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by the Funding Guarantor in discharging its obligations pursuant to its Guarantee.

------

**12.2** **Guarantee Absolute** 

Each Guarantor guarantees that the Notes shall be paid or performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Holder with respect thereto. The obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee are independent of the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor to enforce its Guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or whether the Issuer or any other Guarantor is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be absolute and unconditional and the liability and obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall not be released, discharged, mitigated, waived, impaired or affected in whole or in part by:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Indenture or the Notes with respect to the Issuer or any
Guarantor or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Indenture
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Indenture, including any increase in the Indenture Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Issuer or otherwise;

(c) the failure to give notice to the Guarantor of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under the
provisions of this Indenture or the Notes;

(d) any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee, for all or any
of the Indenture Obligations;

(e) any failure, omission, delay by or inability on the part of the Trustee or the Holders to assert or exercise
any right, power or remedy conferred on the Trustee or the Holders in this Indenture or the Notes;

(f) any change in the corporate structure or other legal structure, or termination, dissolution, amalgamation,
consolidation or merger of the Issuer or any Guarantor with or into any other Person, the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the
marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition with the creditors, or readjustment of, or other
similar proceedings affecting the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any of the assets of any of them;

(g) the assignment of any right, title or interest of the Trustee or any Holder in this Indenture or the Notes to
any other Person; or

------

(h) any other event or circumstance (including any statute of limitations), whether foreseen or unforeseen and
whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, that might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a discharge of, the Issuer or a Guarantor, other than payment in full of the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer; it being the intent
of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by payment and performance of all such Indenture Obligations.

The Guarantee of each Guarantor shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Holder or the Trustee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Each Guarantor further agrees, to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so, that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand: (i) the Maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of this Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby; and (ii) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee. This Section shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by the Trustee or any Holder in reliance upon such amount required to be returned. This Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

**12.3 Waivers** 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) notice of the acceptance of
its Guarantee and notice of the existence, renewal, extension or the non-performance, non-payment, or non-observance on the part
of the Issuer of any of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Indenture or the Notes or any other notice whatsoever to or upon the Issuer or such Guarantor with respect to the Indenture Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby
acknowledges communication to it of the terms of this Indenture and the Notes and all of the provisions herein and therein contained and consents to and approves the same. Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law)
diligence, presentment and protest.

(b) Without prejudice to any of the rights or recourse which the Trustee or the Holders may have against the
Issuer, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law) any right to require the Trustee or the Holders to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) initiate or exhaust any rights, remedies or recourse against the Issuer, any Guarantor or any other Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) value, realize upon, or dispose of any security of the Issuer or any other Person held by the Trustee or the
Holders; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) initiate or exhaust any other remedy which the Trustee or the Holders may have in law or equity, before
requiring,

becoming entitled to or demanding payment from such Guarantor under this Guarantee.

------

**12.4 Subrogation** 

Each Guarantor shall not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Guarantee, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until all the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer shall have been paid in full in cash. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights at any time when all such Indenture Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders and the Trustee and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, to be credited and applied to the Indenture Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

**12.5 No Waiver; Remedies** 

No failure on the part of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

**12.6 Continuing Guarantee; No Right of Set-Off; Independent Obligation** 

(a) This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee of the payment and performance of all of Indenture Obligations and
shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full in cash of all such Indenture Obligations and shall apply to and secure any ultimate balance due or remaining unpaid to the Trustee or the Holders under this Indenture or the Notes; and
this Guarantee shall not be considered as wholly or partially satisfied by the payment or liquidation at any time or from time to time of any sum of money for the time being due or remaining unpaid to the Trustee or the Holders.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that the Indenture Obligations shall be paid to the Trustee without set off or
counterclaim or other reduction whatsoever (whether for taxes, withholding or otherwise), in lawful currency of Canada.

(c) Each Guarantor guarantees that the Indenture Obligations shall be paid strictly in accordance with their terms
regardless of any lack of validity or enforceability of any of such terms or the rights of the Holders with respect thereto.

(d) Each Guarantor's liability to pay or perform or cause the performance of the Indenture Obligations under
this Guarantee shall arise forthwith after demand for payment or performance by the Trustee has been given to such Guarantor in the manner prescribed in this Indenture.

**12.7 Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms** 

Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Guarantor, which amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance is otherwise not prohibited by this Indenture.

------

**12.8** **Benefits Acknowledged** 

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its guarantee and waivers pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Interest hereon shall be payable by cheque mailed by prepaid ordinary mail or by electronic transfer of funds to the registered holder hereof and, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the mailing of such cheque or the electronic transfer of such funds shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby (plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld), satisfy and discharge all liability for interest on this Note.

judgment is given.

(b) The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a

(a) If there occurs a material change in GAAP after the Issue Date, and such change would require disclosure under

materially different than the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such change, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such change (an "**Accounting Change** "). Such notice (an "**Accounting Change Notice**") shall describe the nature of the Accounting Change, its

------

effect on the Issuer's current and immediately prior year's financial statements in accordance with GAAP and state whether the Issuer desires to revise the method of calculating the applicable Financial Term (including the revision of any of the defined terms used in the determination of such Financial Term) in order that amounts determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change and the revised method of calculating such Financial Term will approximate the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such Accounting Change and without giving effect to the revised method of calculating such Financial Term. The Accounting Change Notice shall be delivered to the Trustee within 90 days of the end of the fiscal quarter in which the Accounting Change is implemented or, if such Accounting Change is implemented in the fourth fiscal quarter or in respect of an entire fiscal year, within 120 days of the end of such period. Promptly after receipt from the Issuer of an Accounting Change Notice the Trustee shall deliver to each Holder a copy of such notice.

shall in good faith provide to the Trustee the revised method of calculating the Financial Term within 90 days of the Accounting Change Notice and such revised method shall take effect from the date of the Accounting Change Notice. For certainty, if
no notice of a desire to revise the method of calculating the Financial Term in respect of an Accounting Change is given by the Issuer within the applicable time period described above, the method of calculating the Financial Term shall not be
revised in response to such Accounting Change and all amounts to be determined pursuant to the Financial Term shall be determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change.

**1.16** **Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Transactions** 

When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof), the date of determination of such basket or ratio and of any Default or Event of Default may, at the option of the Issuer, be the date the definitive agreement(s) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into. Any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a *pro forma* basis, including with such adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the *pro forma* adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio," after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had been consummated at the beginning of the applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Transaction; *provided* that if the Issuer elects to make such determination as of the date of such definitive agreement(s), then (a) the Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with such ratios or baskets solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) are permitted under this Indenture, and (b) such ratios or baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related transactions; *provided, further*, that if the Issuer elects to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement(s), any such transactions (including any incurrence or

------

issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreement(s) is entered into and shall be deemed outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any ratios or baskets under this Indenture after the date of such definitive agreement(s) and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, unless such definitive agreement(s) is terminated or such Limited Condition Transaction or incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares or such other transaction to which *pro forma* effect is being given does not occur. The Trustee will have no responsibility to make any calculations pursuant to this Section 1.16.

The first Interest Payment Date for the Initial Notes will be December 16, 2021, and will be in an amount equal to $19.3750 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes. Interest on the Notes shall be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; *provided* that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) furnish to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, within 60 days after the date payment of any taxes are due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of an official receipt of the Relevant Taxing Authority for all amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to applicable law, or if such receipts are not reasonably obtainable, other evidence of payment by the Issuer or such Guarantor of those taxes; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) at least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable (or, if the obligation to pay any Additional Amounts does not arise more than 20 days prior to the applicable payment date, reasonably promptly after such obligation arises), deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Additional Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustee may request to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) for or on account of any taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and such Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to comply with, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to enable the Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Notes or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be delivered within 60 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) for or on account of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, wealth or net worth, goods and services, harmonized sales, transfer, capital gains, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) where the payment could have been made without deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the Note for payment within 30 days after the date on which such payment or such Note became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) that is imposed under FATCA; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any combination of (i) through (ix).

(c) Any reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, Premium, if any, interest, purchase price,
redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The
Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

(d) The Issuer and each Guarantor will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder or
beneficial owner of a Note (other than an Excluded Holder) and upon written request reimburse each such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note for the amount of (i) any taxes so levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such
Holder or beneficial owner of a Note as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes, and (ii) any taxes levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note with respect to any

of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

(c) Notes may be typed, engraved, printed, lithographed or reproduced in a different form, or partly in one form
and partly in another, as the Issuer may determine. The execution of any such Notes by the Issuer and the authentication by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.7 of any such Notes will be conclusive evidence that such Notes are Notes
authorized by this Indenture.

------

**2.7** **Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes** 

(a) All Notes shall be signed (either manually or by electronic or facsimile signature) by any two authorized
directors or officers of the Issuer, holding office at the time of signing. An electronic or facsimile signature upon a Note shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the signature of the individual whose signature it purports to be.
Notwithstanding that any individual whose signature, either manual or in facsimile or other electronic means, appears on a Note as a director or officer may no longer hold such office at the date of the Note or at the date of the authentication and
delivery thereof, such Note shall be valid and binding upon the Issuer and the Holder thereof shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

(b) No Notes will be entitled to any right or benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose unless such Notes have been authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee substantially in the form provided for herein. Such authentication upon any Notes will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Notes have been duly
authenticated, issued and delivered and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits hereof.

(c) Subject to the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee shall from time to time authenticate one or more Notes
(including Global Notes) for original issue on the issue date for such Notes or otherwise to permit transfers in accordance with Section 3.6 upon and in accordance with an Issuer Order (an "**Authentication Order** "), without the

no limit on the amount of Notes that may be issued hereunder.

(d) The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes will not be construed as a representation
or warranty of the Trustee as to the validity of this Indenture or of any Notes or their issuance (except the due authentication thereof by the Trustee) or as to the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under this Indenture or any Notes and
the Trustee will be in no respect liable or answerable for the use made of the proceeds of such Notes. The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes issued under this Indenture will constitute a representation and warranty by

exchange.

------

(b) The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more
additional paying agents for the Notes in such other locations as it shall determine. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term "Paying Agent" includes any additional

or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar for the Notes.

(c) The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee at its corporate office in Calgary, Alberta to act as the Registrar,
transfer agent, authentication agent and Paying Agent with respect to the Notes and appoints Computershare Trust Company N.A., in Golden, Colorado as a co-transfer agent.

**2.10** **Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust** 

The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent, other than the Trustee, to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will, and the Trustee when acting as Paying Agent agrees that it will, hold in trust, for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, Premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any money disbursed by it. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent.

be represented through book entry accounts of Participants on behalf of the Beneficial Holders of such Global Note in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository. None of the Issuer or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or
liability for any aspects of the records relating to or payments made by any Depository on account of the beneficial interest in any Global Notes or for maintaining, reviewing or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests therein.
Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, Beneficial Holders of Global Notes shall not be entitled to have Notes registered in their names, shall not receive or be entitled to receive Definitive Notes and shall not be considered owners or

whatsoever; and

(f) whenever a notice or other communication is required to be provided to Holders, the Trustee shall provide all
such notices and communications to the Depository for subsequent delivery of such notices and communications to the Beneficial Holders in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation and the procedures of the Depository.

**2.13** **Interim Notes** 

Pending the delivery of Definitive Notes to the Trustee, the Issuer may issue and the Trustee authenticate in lieu thereof (but subject to the same provisions, conditions and limitations as set forth in this Indenture) interim printed, mimeographed or typewriter Notes in such forms and in such denominations and signed in such manner as provided herein, entitling the holders thereof to Definitive Notes when the same are ready for delivery; or the Issuer may execute and

------

deliver to the Trustee and the Trustee authenticate a temporary Note for the whole principal amount of Notes then authorized to be issued hereunder and thereupon the Trustee may issue its own interim certificates in such form and in such amounts, not exceeding in the aggregate the principal amount of the temporary Note so delivered to it, as the Issuer and the Trustee may approve entitling the holders thereof to Definitive Notes when the same are ready for delivery; and, when so issued and certified, such interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates shall, for all purposes but without duplication, rank in respect of this Indenture equally with Notes duly issued hereunder and, pending the exchange thereof for Definitive Notes, the holders of the interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates shall be deemed without duplication to be Holders and entitled to the benefit of this Indenture to the same extent and in the same manner as though the said exchange had actually been made. Forthwith after the Issuer shall have delivered the Definitive Notes to the Trustee, the Trustee shall call in for exchange all temporary or interim Notes or certificates that shall have been issued and forthwith after such exchange shall cancel the same. No charge shall be made by the Issuer or the Trustee to the holders of such interim or temporary Notes or interim certificates for the exchange thereof. All interest paid upon interim or temporary Notes or certificates shall be noted thereon as a condition precedent to such payment unless paid by cheque to the registered holders thereof.

**2.14** **Mutilation, Loss, Theft or Destruction** 

In case any of the Notes issued hereunder shall become mutilated or be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Issuer, in its discretion, may issue, and thereupon the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Note, or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, in lieu of and in substitution for the same, and the substituted Note shall be in a form approved by the Trustee and shall entitle the Holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture and shall rank equally in accordance with its terms with all other Notes issued or to be issued hereunder. In case of loss, theft or destruction the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Trustee such evidence of the loss, theft or destruction of the Note as shall be satisfactory to them in their discretion and shall also furnish an indemnity and surety bond satisfactory to them in their discretion. The applicant shall pay all reasonable expenses incidental to the issuance of any substituted Note.

**2.15** **Concerning Interest** 

(a) All Notes issued hereunder, whether originally or upon exchange or in substitution for previously issued Notes
(including for certainty Notes issued under Sections 2.13 and 2.14), shall accrue and bear interest (i) from and including their respective issue date, or (ii) from and including the last Interest Payment Date therefor to which interest
shall have been paid or made available for payment on such outstanding Notes, whichever shall be the later, in all cases, to and excluding the next Interest Payment Date therefor.

(b) Subject to accrual of any interest on unpaid interest from time to time, interest on a Note will cease to
accrue from the Maturity of such Note (including, for certainty, if such Note was called for redemption, the Redemption Date); unless upon due presentation and surrender of such Note for payment on or after the Maturity thereof, such payment is
improperly withheld or refused.

------

(c) If the date for payment of any amount of principal, Premium or interest in respect of a Note is not a Business
Day at the place of payment, then payment thereof will be made on the next Business Day and the Holder of such Note will not be entitled to any further interest on such principal, or to any interest on such interest, Premium or other amount so
payable, in respect of the period from the date for payment to such next Business Day.

(d) The Holder of any Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment
Date shall be entitled to receive the interest, if any, payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Note subsequent to such Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, except if and to the extent
the Issuer shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, in which case such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Holder of such Note as at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be not
less than two Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of all affected Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date.

(e) Wherever in this Indenture or any Note there is mention, in any context, of the payment of interest, such
mention is deemed to include the payment of interest on amounts in default to the extent that, in such context, such interest is, was or would be payable pursuant to this Indenture or the Note, and express mention of interest on amounts in default
in any of the provisions of this Indenture will not be construed as excluding such interest in those provisions of this Indenture where such express mention is not made.

(f) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture or the terms of any Note, interest on the Notes shall
be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; *provided* that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and
the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day. For purposes of disclosure under the *Interest Act* (Canada), whenever interest is calculated under a Note on the basis of a year which contains fewer
days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as an annual rate by multiplying such rate of interest by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such
calendar year, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the deemed year.

**2.16** **Payments of Amounts Due on Maturity** 

(a) Subject to Section 2.16(b), the following provisions shall apply to all Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of fully registered Notes, the Issuer shall establish and maintain with the Paying Agent a Maturity
Account for the Notes. On or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for the Notes, the Issuer shall deposit in the applicable Maturity Account by wire transfer or certified cheque an amount sufficient to
pay all amounts payable in respect of the outstanding Notes (less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Paying Agent will pay to each Holder of such Notes entitled to receive payment, the

------

principal amount of, and Premium (if any) on, such Notes, upon surrender of such Notes to the Paying Agent or at any branch of the Trustee designated for such purpose from time to time by the Issuer and the Trustee. The deposit or making available of such amounts into the applicable Maturity Account will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the deposit or making available of funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture to such extent and such Holder will have no other right than to receive out of the money so deposited or made available the amount to which it is entitled. Failure to make a deposit or make funds available as required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(i) will constitute Default in payment on the Notes in respect of which the deposit or making available of funds was required to have been made; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Notes issued and outstanding in the form of or represented by Global Notes, on or before
11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for such Notes, the Issuer shall deliver to the Depository by electronic funds transfer an amount sufficient to pay the amount payable in respect of such Global Notes
(less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Issuer shall pay to the Depository the principal amount of, and Premium (if any) on, such Global Notes, against receipt of the relevant Global Notes. The delivery of such
electronic funds to the Depository will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the electronic funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any Taxes deducted or withheld
as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture unless such electronic funds transfer is not received. Failure to make delivery of funds available as required pursuant to this
Section 2.16(a)(ii) will constitute Default in payment on the Notes in respect of which the delivery or making available of funds was required to have been made.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 2.16(a), all payments in excess of $25 million (or such other amount as
determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to disburse funds pursuant to
Section 2.16(a)(i) unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable on the applicable date of Maturity. The Paying Agent
shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the
same are drawn.

**2.17** **Legends on Notes** 

(a) Unless otherwise provided in the Notes, Notes will not be registered under any United States federal or state
securities laws, and any Notes issued and sold in the United States or to or for the account of U.S. persons (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) will be issued and sold only to Persons who are QIBs within the
meaning of, and in reliance on, Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act, as well as all Notes issued in exchange for or in substitution of the foregoing securities, and shall bear, unless otherwise directed by the Issuer, a legend substantially in
the following form (the "**144A U.S. Legend** "):

------

"THE NOTES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF PARKLAND CORPORATION (THE "**ISSUER**") THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE ISSUER, (B) INSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT ("**RULE 144A**") TO A PERSON IT REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A) THAT PURCHASES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER AND TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A, (C) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH

APPLICABLE LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (D) PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, OR (E) PURSUANT TO ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION, AND IN THE CASE OF (D) OR (E), AFTER AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER HAS BEEN FURNISHED TO THE ISSUER.

IF THESE SECURITIES ARE BEING SOLD IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, A NEW CERTIFICATE BEARING NO LEGEND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND A DULY EXECUTED DECLARATION (AND, IF REQUIRED BY COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL), IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA AND THE ISSUER, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE SALE OF THESE SECURITIES IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT."

In addition, the Trustee understands and acknowledges that, subject to Section 3.6, Notes will also bear the Canadian Private Placement Legend until such legend is no longer required under Applicable Securities Legislation.

(b) The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the
public under Applicable Securities Legislation. The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes, and each Note issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, will bear a legend in substantially the following form (the
" **Canadian Private Placement Legend**") until the legend is no longer required under Applicable Securities Legislation:

------

"UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE MUST NOT TRADE THIS NOTE BEFORE [*INSERT DATE WHICH IS FOUR MONTHS AND A DAY AFTER ISSUE DATE*]"

(c) Each Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, subject to such modification as
required by the applicable Depository (the "**Global Note Legend** "):

"THIS NOTE IS A GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREIN REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO OR EXCHANGED FOR NOTES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF AND NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE. EVERY NOTE AUTHENTICATED AND DELIVERED UPON REGISTRATION OF, TRANSFER OF, OR IN EXCHANGE FOR, OR IN LIEU OF, THIS NOTE SHALL BE A GLOBAL NOTE SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, EXCEPT IN SUCH LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.

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

(d) Prior to the issuance of Notes, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, concerning which Notes are to
be certificated and are to bear the legend or legends described in this Section 2.17.

**2.18** **Payment of Interest** 

(a) As interest becomes due on each fully registered Note (except on redemption thereof, when interest may at the
option of the Issuer be paid upon surrender of such Note), the Issuer, either directly or through the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, shall send or forward by prepaid ordinary mail, electronic transfer of funds or such other means as may be
agreed to by the Trustee, payment of such interest including any Additional Amounts (less any

------

taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom) to the order of the Holder of such Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date and addressed to the Holder at the Holder's last address appearing on the register (or in the case of joint Holders, to such address of one of the joint Holders), unless such Holder otherwise directs. If payment is made by cheque, such cheque shall be forwarded at least two days prior to each Interest Payment Date and if payment is made by other means (such as electronic transfer of funds; *provided* that the Trustee must receive confirmation of receipt of funds prior to being able to wire funds to Holders), such payment shall be made in a manner whereby the Holder receives credit for such payment on the Interest Payment Date. The mailing of such cheque or the making of such payment by other means shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby, plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld as aforesaid, satisfy and discharge all liability for interest including any Additional Amounts on such Note to such extent, unless in the case of payment by cheque, such cheque is not paid at par on presentation. In the event of non-receipt of any cheque for or other payment of interest by the Person to whom it is so sent as aforesaid, the Issuer shall issue to such Person a replacement cheque or other payment for a like amount upon being furnished with such evidence of non-receipt as it shall reasonably require and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuer is prevented by circumstances beyond its control (including, without limitation, any interruption in mail service) from making payment of any interest due on any Note in the manner provided above, the Issuer may make payment of such interest or make such interest available for payment in any other manner acceptable to the Trustee with the same effect as though payment had been made in the manner provided above. If payment is made through the Trustee, by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related Interest Payment Date for a Note or to the date of mailing the cheques for the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, whichever is earlier, the Issuer shall deliver sufficient funds to the Trustee by electronic transfer or certified cheque or make such other arrangements for the provision of funds as may be agreeable between the Trustee and the Issuer in order to effect such interest payment hereunder.

(b) So long as the Notes or any portion thereof are issued in the form of or represented by a Global Note, then all
payments of interest on such Global Note shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related Interest Payment Date by electronic funds transfer made payable to the Depository or its nominee for subsequent
payment to Beneficial Holders of the applicable interests in that Global Note, unless the Issuer and the Depository otherwise agree.

(c) Notwithstanding Sections 2.18(a) and 2.18(b), all payments in excess of $25 million (or such other amount
as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor Paying Agent, as applicable, shall have any obligation to disburse funds in respect of any
Note pursuant to Section 2.18(a) unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable with respect to such Interest Payment
Date for such Note. The Trustee or Paying Agent, as applicable, shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be
determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

------

**2.19** **Record of Payment** 

The Trustee will maintain accounts and records evidencing any payment, by it or any other Paying Agent on behalf of the Issuer, of principal, Premium (if any) and interest in respect of Notes, which accounts and records will constitute, in the absence of manifest error, *prima facie* evidence of such payment.

**2.20** **Representation Regarding Third Party Interest** 

The Issuer hereby represents to the Trustee that any account to be opened by, or interest to be held by, the Trustee in connection with this Indenture, for or to the credit of the Issuer, either (a) is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party; or (b) is intended to be used by or on behalf of a third party, in which case the Issuer hereby agrees to complete, execute and deliver forthwith to the Trustee a declaration, in the Trustee's prescribed form or in such other form as may be reasonably satisfactory to it, as to the particulars of such third party.

**ARTICLE 3** 

**<u>REGISTRATION, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE AND OWNERSHIP</u>**

**3.1** **Register of Certificated Notes** 

(a) With respect to Notes issuable in whole or in part as registered Notes, the Issuer shall cause to be kept by
and at the principal office of the Trustee in Calgary, Alberta or by such other Registrar as the Issuer, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as may be specified in the Notes or as the Issuer may
designate with the approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the names and addresses of the Holders and particulars of the Notes held by them respectively and of all transfers of Notes. Such registration shall be noted on the
relevant Notes by the Trustee or other Registrar unless a new Note shall be issued upon such transfer.

(b) No transfer of a registered Note shall be valid unless made on such register referred to in Section 3.1(a)
by the Holder or such Holder's executors, administrators or other legal representatives or an attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and executed in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee or other Registrar upon surrender of
the Notes together with a duly executed form of transfer acceptable to the Trustee or other Registrar and upon compliance with such other reasonable requirements as the Trustee or other Registrar may prescribe, and unless the name of the transferee
shall have been noted on the Note by the Trustee or other Registrar.

**3.2** **Global Notes** 

(a) With respect to Notes issuable as or represented by, in whole or in part, one or more Global Notes, the Issuer
shall cause to be kept by and at the principal office of the Trustee in Calgary, Alberta or by such other Registrar as the Issuer, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as the Issuer may designate with
the

------

approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the name and address of the Holder of each such Global Note (being the Depository, or its nominee, for such Global Note) and particulars of the Global Note held by it, and of all transfers thereof. If any Notes are at any time not Global Notes, the provisions of Section 3.1 shall govern with respect to registrations and transfers of such Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, a Global Note may not be transferred by the Holder
thereof and, accordingly, subject to Section 3.6, no Definitive Notes shall be issued to Beneficial Holders except in the following circumstances or as otherwise specified in a resolution of the Trustee, a Board Resolution or an Officers'
Certificate:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Definitive Notes may be issued to Beneficial Holders at any time after:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has determined that CDS (1) is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for Global Notes,
or (2) ceases to be eligible to be a Depository, and, in each case the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor to its reasonable satisfaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Issuer has determined, in its sole discretion, or is required by law, to terminate the book-entry only
registration system in respect of such Global Notes and has communicated such determination or requirement to the Trustee in writing, or the book-entry system ceases to exist; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Trustee has determined that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to Notes issued
as Global Notes; *provided* that Beneficial Holders representing, in the aggregate, not less than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes advise the Depository in writing, through the Participants, that the continuation
of the book-entry only registration system for the Notes is no longer in their best interests; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Global Notes may be transferred (A) if such transfer is required by applicable law, as determined by the
Issuer and Counsel, or (B) by a Depository to a nominee of such Depository, or by a nominee of a Depository to such Depository, or to another nominee of such Depository, or by a Depository or its nominee to a successor Depository or its
nominee.

(c) Upon the termination of the book-entry only registration system on the occurrence of one of the conditions
specified in Section 3.2(b)(i) or upon the transfer of a Global Note to a Person other than a Depository or a nominee thereof in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(i)(A), the Trustee shall notify all Beneficial Holders, through the Depository,
of the availability of Definitive Notes. Upon surrender by the Depository of the Global Notes and receipt of new registration instructions from the Depository, the Trustee shall deliver the Definitive Notes to the Beneficial Holders thereof in
accordance with the new registration instructions and thereafter, the registration and transfer of such Notes will be governed by Section 3.1 and the remaining provisions of this Article 3.

------

(d) It is expressly acknowledged that transfer of beneficial ownership in any Note issuable in the form of or
represented by a Global Note will be effected only (i) with respect to the interests of participants in the Depository ()"**Participants** "), through records maintained by the Depository or its nominee for the Global Note, and
(ii) with respect to interests of Persons other than Participants, through records maintained by Participants. Beneficial Holders who are not Participants but who desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of or other interest in
Notes represented by a Global Note may do so only through a Participant.

**3.3** **Transferee Entitled to Registration** 

The transferee of a Note shall be entitled, after the appropriate form of transfer is deposited with the Trustee or other Registrar and upon compliance with all other conditions for such transfer required by this Indenture or by law, to be entered on the register as the owner of such Note free from all equities or rights of set-off or counterclaim between the Issuer and the transferor or any previous Holder of such Note, save in respect of equities of which the Issuer is required to take notice by law (including any statute or order of a court of competent jurisdiction).

**3.4** **No Notice of Trusts** 

None of the Issuer, the Trustee and any Registrar or Paying Agent will be bound to take notice of or see to the performance or observance of any duty owed to a third Person, whether under a trust, express, implied, resulting or constructive, in respect of any Note by the Holder or any Person whom the Issuer or the Trustee treats, as permitted or required by law, as the owner or the Holder of such Note, and may transfer the same on the direction of the Person so treated as the owner or Holder of the Note, whether named as Trustee or otherwise, as though that Person were the Beneficial Holder thereof.

**3.5** **Registers Open for Inspection** 

The registers referred to in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall, subject to applicable law, at all reasonable times be open for inspection by the Issuer, the Trustee or any Holder. Every Registrar, including the Trustee, shall from time to time when requested so to do by the Issuer or by the Trustee, in writing, furnish the Issuer or the Trustee, as the case may be, with a list of names and addresses of Holders entered on the registers kept by them and showing the principal amount and serial numbers of the Notes held by each such Holder; *provided* that the Trustee shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee to provide such a list.

**3.6** **Transfers and Exchanges of Notes** 

(a)  ***Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.*** A Global Note may be transferred in whole and not in part
only pursuant to Section 3.2(b)(ii). A beneficial interest in a Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note other than pursuant to Section 3.2(b)(i). A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in
this Section 3.6(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred as provided in Section 3.6(b) or 3.6(c), as applicable.

------

(b)  ***Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes.*** The transfer and exchange of
beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, applicable laws and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes and the
Unrestricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer as set forth herein to the extent required by Applicable Securities Legislation. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with either
subparagraph (i) or (ii), as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) *Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note.* Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global
Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note if such beneficial interest is being transferred in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the 144A
U.S. Legend. Beneficial interests in the Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required
to be delivered to the Registrar to effect transfers described in this Section 3.6(b)(i).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) *All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes.* In connection with all
transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 3.6(b)(i), the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A) (1) a written order from a Participant or a Beneficial Holder,
in each case, given to the Depository in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depository to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be
transferred or exchanged, and (2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase, or (B) (1) a written order from a Participant or
a Beneficial Holder, in each case, given to the Depository in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depository to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred, and
(2) instructions given by the Depository to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer referred to in (B)(1) above. Upon satisfaction of all of the
requirements for transfer of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under Applicable Securities Legislation, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s)
pursuant to Section 3.6(f).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) *Transfer of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note.* A beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of
Section 3.6(b)(ii) and the Registrar receives a certificate from such holder in the form of Appendix B hereto, including the applicable certifications in item (2) thereof, and, other than if the Registrar receives the certification in item

------

2(a) of Appendix B, if the Registrar so requests or if the Applicable Procedures so require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the U.S. Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the 144A U.S. Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the U.S. Securities Act.

If any such transfer is effected pursuant to subparagraph (iii) at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.7(c) hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to subparagraph (iii).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) *Transfer of Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Note.* Beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note can be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of
Section 3.6(b)(ii) and the Registrar receives a certificate in the form of Appendix B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof.

If any such transfer is effected pursuant to subparagraph (iv) at a time when a Restricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.7(c) hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Restricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to subparagraph (iv) immediately above.

(c)  ***Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes for Definitive Notes.*** A holder
of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may exchange such beneficial interest for a Definitive Note or may transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Definitive Note only upon the occurrence of any of
the preceding events in Section 3.2(b)(i) and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.6(b)(ii). Upon the occurrence of any such preceding event and receipt by the Registrar of the documentation referred to in the appropriate
subparagraph of this Section 3.6(c), the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 3.6(f), and the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver to the Person designated in the instructions a Definitive Note in the appropriate principal amount. Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 3.6(c) shall be registered in such name or
names and in such authorized denomination or denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the Registrar through instructions from the Depository and the Participant or Beneficial Holder. The Trustee shall deliver such
Definitive Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered. The foregoing requirements shall apply to all transfers pursuant to this Section 3.6(c).

Depository, the Trustee and the Issuer; and

------

From and after such Redemption Date, if the monies necessary to redeem such Notes shall have been deposited as provided in Section 4.8 and affidavits or other proof satisfactory to the Trustee as to the publication and/or mailing of such Redemption Notices shall have been lodged with it, interest upon the Notes shall cease. If any question shall arise as to whether any notice has been given as above provided and such deposit made, such question shall be decided by the Trustee whose decision shall be final and binding upon all parties in interest.

**4.8** **Deposit of Redemption Monies** 

(a) Upon Notes being called for redemption, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or any Paying Agent to the
order of the Trustee, on or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date specified in the Redemption Notice, such sums of money as may be sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes so called for
redemption, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to but excluding the Redemption Date and including any Additional Amounts, less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom. The Issuer shall also deposit with the Trustee a
sum of money sufficient to pay any charges or expenses which may be incurred by the Trustee in connection with such redemption. Every such deposit shall be irrevocable. From the sums so deposited, the Trustee shall pay or cause to be paid, to the
Holders of such Notes so called for redemption, upon surrender of such Notes, the principal, Premium (if any) and interest (if any) to which they are respectively entitled on redemption.

(b) Payment of funds to the Trustee upon redemption of Notes shall be made by electronic transfer or certified
cheque or pursuant to such other arrangements for the provision of funds as may be agreed between the Issuer and the Trustee in order to effect such payment hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) all payments in excess of
$25 million (or such other amount as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association) shall be made by the use of the LVTS; and (ii) in the event that payment must be made to the Depository, the Issuer shall remit payment
to the Trustee by LVTS. The Trustee shall have no obligation to disburse funds pursuant to this Section 4.8 unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in
full all amounts due and payable on the applicable Redemption Date. The Trustee shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques
shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

In case the Holder of any Note so called for redemption shall fail on or before the Redemption Date so to surrender such Holder's Note, or shall not within such time specified on the Redemption Notice accept payment of the redemption monies payable, or give such receipt therefor, if any, as the Trustee may require, such redemption monies may be set aside in trust, without interest, either in the deposit department of the Trustee or in a chartered bank, and such setting aside shall for all purposes be deemed a payment to the Holder of the sum so set aside and, to that extent, such Note shall thereafter not be considered as outstanding hereunder and the Holder thereof shall have no other right except to receive payment of the Redemption Price of such Note, plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date and including any Additional Amounts, less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld, out of the monies so paid and deposited, upon surrender and delivery up of such Holder's relevant Note. In the event that any money required to be deposited hereunder with the Trustee or any Paying Agent on account of principal, Premium, if any, or interest, if any, on Notes issued hereunder shall remain so deposited for a period of six years from the Redemption Date, then such monies, together with any accumulated interest thereon, shall at the end of such period be paid over or delivered over by the Trustee or such Paying Agent to the Issuer on its demand, and thereupon the Trustee shall not be responsible to Holders of such Notes for any amounts owing to them and subject to applicable law, thereafter the Holders of such Notes in respect of which such money was so repaid to the Issuer shall have no rights in respect thereof except to obtain payment of the money due from the Issuer, subject to any limitation period provided by the laws of Alberta.

**4.10** **Cancellation of Notes Redeemed** 

Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.5 and 4.11 as to Notes redeemed or purchased in part, all Notes redeemed and paid under this Article 4 shall forthwith be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution for those redeemed.

**4.11** **Purchase of Notes for Cancellation** 

(a) The Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, purchase or otherwise acquire Notes, whether pursuant to a
tender offer, open market purchase, negotiated transactions or otherwise, at any price, in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation; *provided* that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such acquisition
does not otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture. All Notes so purchased may, at the option of the Issuer, be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution therefor.

(b) If, upon an invitation for tenders, more Notes are tendered at the same lowest price than the Issuer is
prepared to accept, the Notes to be purchased by the Issuer shall be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis or in such other manner as the Issuer directs in writing and as consented to by the exchange, if any, on which Notes are then listed
which the

------

Trustee considers appropriate, from the Notes tendered by each tendering Holder thereof who tendered at such lowest price. For this purpose the Trustee may make, and from time to time amend, regulations with respect to the manner in which Notes may be so selected, and regulations so made shall be valid and binding upon all Holders thereof, notwithstanding the fact that as a result thereof one or more of such Notes become subject to purchase in part only. The Holder of a Note of which a part only is purchased, upon surrender of such Note for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such Holder, one or more new Notes for the unpurchased part so surrendered, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such new Note or Notes upon receipt of the Note so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Note, the Depository shall make notations on the applicable Global Note of the principal amount thereof so purchased.

**ARTICLE 5** 

**<u>COVENANTS OF THE ISSUER</u>**

As long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer hereby covenants and agrees with the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders as follows (unless and for so long as the Issuer and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries are the only Holders (or Beneficial Holders) of the outstanding Notes, in which case the following provisions of this Article 5 shall not apply):

**5.1** **Payment of Principal, Premium, and Interest** 

(a) The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders that it will duly and punctually pay the
principal of, Premium, if any, and interest on the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Principal, Premium and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the Trustee holds, as of 10:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on
the Business Day prior to the relevant payment date (or otherwise as specified in this Indenture in respect of such payment) Canadian dollars in immediately available funds sufficient to pay all principal, Premium and interest then due and the
Trustee is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

(b) The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue principal and Premium, if any, at the rate of interest applicable to the Notes, and it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue instalments of interest (without regard to any
applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful.

**5.2** **Maintenance of Office or Agency** 

(a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer and Guarantors in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of
such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

------

(b) The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such
other office or agency.

(c) The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the
Issuer.

(a) The Issuer will provide the Trustee, and the Trustee will deliver to all the Holders, the following information
(collectively, the "**Financial Reports** "):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) within 90 days of the end of each fiscal year, annual audited financial statements for such fiscal year
(along with customary comparative results) and (B) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, unaudited financial statements for the interim period as at, and for the period ending on, the end of
such fiscal quarter (along with comparative results for the corresponding interim period in the prior year), in each case, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" with
respect to the periods presented and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer's certified independent accountants; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) within 10 days after the occurrence of each event constituting a "material change" (as defined in
the *Securities Act* (Alberta)) that would have been required to be reported (pursuant to applicable rules and regulations in effect on the Issue Date) in a report under the *Securities Act* (Alberta) if the Issuer had been a
"reporting issuer" under the *Securities Act* (Alberta), a report containing substantially all of the information that would have been required to be contained (pursuant to the *Securities Act* (Alberta) and applicable rules
and regulations thereunder) in such report,

*provided, however*, that (x) Financial Reports shall be deemed to have been provided to the Trustee and the Holders once filed on the SEDAR website at www.SEDAR.com and (y) Financial Reports will not be required to include any reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with respect to financial information reported pursuant to GAAP.

(b) If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries and such Unrestricted
Subsidiaries hold more than 2.5% of Consolidated Tangible Assets, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by Section 5.3(a) will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or
in the footnotes thereto, or in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries excluding such
Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

------

(c) If and for so long as any Notes remain outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the
meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the U.S. Securities Act, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information
required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act (for so long as such information is required in order to permit resales of the Notes pursuant to Rule 144A).

(d) Unless the Financial Reports are available on SEDAR or any successor system thereto, the Issuer will also
maintain a website to which the Beneficial Holders are given free access and on which, not later than the date by which the Financial Reports are required to be provided to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.3(a), such Financial Reports are made
available. Making such Financial Reports so available shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of 5.3(a) that such Financial Reports be provided to the Trustee and delivered to the Holders.

(e) Unless the Issuer is a "reporting issuer" (or its equivalent) required to file information with one
or more securities regulators in Canada, no later than five Business Days after the date the annual and quarterly Financial Reports have been furnished pursuant to Section 5.3(a)(i), the Issuer shall also hold a live quarterly conference call
with the opportunity for participants to ask questions of management. No fewer than three Business Days prior to the date such conference call is to be held, the Issuer shall issue a press release (which release shall be immediately filed on SEDAR
or any successor system thereto or, if the applicable Canadian securities regulators do not permit such filing, immediately provided to the Trustee and the Holders) announcing such quarterly conference call, which press release shall contain the
time and the date of such conference call and direct the recipients thereof to contact an individual at the Issuer (for whom contact information shall be provided in such notice) to obtain information on how to access such quarterly conference call.

(f) The Trustee will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing or posting of such financial statements
and reports has occurred; delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or
determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer's compliance with any of its covenants under the indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely on Officer's Certificates).

**5.4** **Compliance Certificate.** 

(a) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year beginning with the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, an Officers' Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing
Officers with a view to determining whether each has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that, to his or her knowledge, each entity has
kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the

------

performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that, to his or her knowledge, no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of, Premium, if any, or interest on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

(b) The Issuer shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any
Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers' Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

**5.5** **Payment of Taxes and Other Claims** 

The Issuer shall and shall cause each of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, file all tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments and governmental levies imposed on them or any of their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes, assessments and levies have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on properties or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; *provided* that neither the Issuer nor any Restricted Subsidiary need pay any such taxes or claim if (a) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary or (b) the non-payment of all such taxes in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, affairs or financial condition of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

**5.6** **Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.** 

The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

**5.7** **Keeping of Books** 

The Issuer shall keep or cause to be kept, and shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary to keep or cause to be kept proper books of record and account, in which full and correct entries (in all material respects) shall be made of all financial transactions and the property and business of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP.

Restricted Payment;

------

(c) The amount of each Restricted Payment (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of such
Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian
dollar-denominated restriction on Restricted Payments denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent amount of such Restricted Payment shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that
such Restricted Payment was made.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that any Restricted Payment (or a
portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments described in clauses (i) through (xvi) above or one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments (or portions of any of the foregoing) or

Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to other Indebtedness or obligations incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur
any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); *provided* that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur additional Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), in each case, if, after giving effect thereto on a *pro forma* basis, (i) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default will have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a
consequence of incurring the Indebtedness or entering into the transactions relating to such incurrence.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.10(a), each of the following incurrences of Indebtedness shall be permitted
(" **Permitted Indebtedness** "):

aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, including the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers' acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers' acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount
equal to the face amount thereof) not to exceed, as of any date of incurrence, the greater of (A) $2,000 million and (B) 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow during the most recent four consecutive full fiscal quarters for which
financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP are available (determined at the time of incurrence and after giving effect to the *pro forma* adjustments set forth in the definition of "Consolidated Interest
Coverage Ratio"); *provided, however*, that the amount permitted to be incurred under Credit Facilities pursuant to clause (B) of this section (i) shall be increased to up to 4.0 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow
(as so determined) in respect of Indebtedness incurred on the closing date of any Significant Acquisition (the "**Significant Acquisition Closing Date**") or within two Business Days of such Significant Acquisition Closing Date so
long as the portion of any such incurred Indebtedness which exceeds 3.5 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) is incurred to finance, directly or indirectly, such Significant Acquisition (in which case such excess
portion of the Indebtedness is referred to as an "**Incremental Acquisition Financing** "); and provided further that any Incremental Acquisition Financing that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs in reliance on the
foregoing proviso shall be permanently repaid by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries under such Credit Facilities within 180 days after the Significant Acquisition Closing Date unless (and solely to the extent) that at the expiration of such
180 day period the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be permitted to incur the portion of the Incremental Acquisition Financing that remains outstanding at such time pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of this section (i);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Indebtedness represented by the Notes issued on the Issue Date and the Guarantees;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) guarantees by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture; *provided* that in the event such Indebtedness that is being guaranteed is Subordinated Indebtedness, then the related guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantees, as
the case may be;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) [ *Intentionally Deleted* ];

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Indebtedness of the Issuer owed to and held by a Restricted Subsidiary and Indebtedness of any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries owed to and held by the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; *provided, however,* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) if the Issuer is the obligor on Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if a Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) (1) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests or any other event which results in any such
Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; and (2) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; shall be deemed, in
each case of this clause (C), to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, not permitted by this clause (vi);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Indebtedness in respect of workers' compensation claims, bank guarantees, letters of credit, warehouse
receipt or similar facilities, property, casualty or liability insurance, take-or-pay obligations in supply arrangements, self-insurance obligations or completion,
performance, bid performance, appeal or surety bonds in each case issued in the ordinary course of business and not in connection with the borrowing of money or the obtaining of an advance or credit (other than advances or credit for goods and
services in the ordinary course of business and on customary terms and conditions that are customary in the Permitted Business, and other than the extension of credit represented by such letter of credit, guarantee or completion, performance, bid,
appeal or surety bond itself);

incurrence, exceed the greater of (I) $375 million and (II) 6% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets (determined at the time of incurrence and after giving *pro forma* effect to the use of proceeds therefrom), *plus*, in
each case, the amount of fees, expenses and premiums incurred in connection with any refinancing thereof;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) Indebtedness arising from the honouring by a bank or other financial institution of a cheque, draft or similar
instrument inadvertently (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn against insufficient funds, in each case in the ordinary course of business;

business;

was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under Section 5.10(a) or Section 5.10(b)(ii), (iii), (viii), (xi), or (xviii);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xii) indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn-out or similar
obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business or assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary, other than guarantees of
Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Equity Interests for the purpose of financing or in contemplation of any such acquisition;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xiii) Indebtedness in respect of Specified Cash Management Agreements entered into in the ordinary course of
business;

any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or amalgamated, merged or consolidated with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such acquisition, amalgamation,
merger or consolidation); *provided, however*, that at the time such Person or assets is/are acquired by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, or amalgamated, merged or consolidated with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and
after giving *pro forma* effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (xiv) and any other related Indebtedness, either (A) the Issuer would have been able to incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to
section 5.10(a) or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such acquisition, amalgamation,
merger or consolidation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xv) Indebtedness representing deferred compensation to directors, officers, members of management or employees (in
their capacities as such) of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and incurred in the ordinary course of business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xvi) daylight loans incurred for bona fide tax planning purposes;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xvii) unsecured obligations owing under letters of credit, letters of guarantee, performance guarantees and similar
instruments issued by one or more financial institutions which are guaranteed by Export Development Canada pursuant to its "Performance Security Guarantee" program (or any replacement program thereto) in any aggregate principal amount
not to exceed $150 million; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xviii) additional Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount
which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xviii) and then outstanding and all Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred pursuant to clause (xi), will not exceed
the greater of (A) $400 million and (B) 6% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets (determined at the time of incurrence and after giving *pro forma* effect to the use of proceeds therefrom).

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 5.10:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted
Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 5.10(a), the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness and may divide and
classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described therein (except that Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred under clause (b)(i) of
Section 5.10(b)), and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) (*provided* that at the time of reclassification it meets the criteria in such category or
categories);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the
determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could have incurred such Indebtedness;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to
the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Indebtedness of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or
amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed to have been incurred by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
(or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under this Section 5.10, the Issuer shall be in Default of this
covenant; *provided* that any Indebtedness of such Person that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon consummation of the transaction by which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) will be deemed to not be Indebtedness for the purposes of this Section 5.10.

------

(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence
of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date
that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed or first incurred (whichever yields the lowest Canadian dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; *provided* that if such
Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate
in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such
Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate
applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

**5.11** **Limitation on Asset Sales** 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly,
consummate any Asset Sale unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Sale; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, together with the consideration received in all other Asset Sales by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; for the
purposes of this Section 5.11(a)(ii) only, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the amount (without duplication) of any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer's most recent consolidated
balance sheet, of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed or forgiven by the transferee of any such assets
pursuant to a novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary against further liability;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount of any securities, notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days
after such Asset Sale converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Fair Market Value of (1) any assets (other than securities) received by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to be used by it in a Permitted Business, (2) Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
acquisition of such Person by the Issuer or (3) a combination of (1) and (2); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time
outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

(b) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in
accordance with this Section 5.11.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 5.11(a), the 75% limitation referred to in Section 5.11(a)(ii) shall be
deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with this Section 5.11 on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

(d) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary may, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) repay, redeem or otherwise retire (A) obligations under the Credit Agreement, (B) Indebtedness (other
than Disqualified Equity Interests or *Subordinated Indebtedness*) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, and/or (C) Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien (in each case other than any
Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) and, if the obligations repaid are in respect of revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently
reduce commitments with respect thereto;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) repay, redeem or otherwise retire obligations under other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary
(in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); *provided* that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce obligations
under the Notes as provided under Section 4.2, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 5.11(f) for a Net Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) make any capital expenditure or otherwise invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in
the purchase of assets (other than securities and excluding working capital or current assets for the avoidance of doubt) to be used by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity
Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of Net Available Proceeds are not invested or reinvested as contemplated by clause (iii) within 365 days of receipt thereof, but the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has, within 365 days of receipt of such Net Available Proceeds, entered into a binding contractual commitment upon customary conditions (including a purchase agreement or purchase order) to make such investments, then the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have invested such Net Available Proceeds in accordance with clause (iii); *provided* that, in the event and to the extent such investment shall not be completed in whole or in part in accordance with such binding contractual commitment within 180 days after entering into such binding contractual commitment, such binding contractual commitment shall have been terminated in whole or in part, such investment shall be abandoned in whole or in part, or such Net Available Proceeds are not otherwise applied to fund such investment in whole or in part, then such Net Available Proceeds (or balance of Net Available Proceeds related to the non-completed portion of a binding contractual commitment in the event of a partial completion, termination, abandonment or application) shall constitute Net Available Proceeds from and after the date of such cancellation or termination. The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this Section 5.11(d) will constitute "**Excess Proceeds**".

(e) Pending the final application of any Net Available Proceeds pursuant to this Section 5.11, the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary holding such Net Available Proceeds may apply such Net Available Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Proceeds in any manner not
prohibited by this Indenture.

|:---|:---|
| (f) (i) | On the 366th day after an Asset Sale (or, at the Issuer's option, an earlier date or any later date contemplated by Section 5.11(d)), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $100 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase or redeem (a "**Net Proceeds Offer**") from all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase or redeem such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes, and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Net Proceeds Offer applies that may be purchased or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make a Net Proceeds Offer as described in
Section 5.11(f)(i), the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an
informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no earlier than
30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (g) (i) | The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the "**Net Proceeds Offer Period**"). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the "**Net Proceeds Purchase Date**"), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this covenant (the "**Net Proceeds Offer Amount**") or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer.  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment
date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Net Proceeds
Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a
pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the

------

Net Proceeds Offer, or if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this covenant and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers' Certificate from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; *provided* that each such new Note will be in a minimum denomination in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

(h) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly
tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate
principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on
the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net
Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions described under Section 5.14 and/or Article 9 and not by the provisions of this Asset Sale covenant.

(j) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.11:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.11; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an
election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

(k) The Issuer will comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation, and any other applicable laws and
regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any Applicable Securities Legislation or applicable laws and regulations conflict with this Section 5.11, the Issuer
shall comply with the Applicable Securities Legislation and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 5.11 by virtue of such compliance.

**5.12** **Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates** 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one
transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the
benefit of, any Affiliate (an "**Affiliate Transaction**") involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $25 million, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that would reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm's length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of $75 million, an Officer
of the Issuer has determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of $100 million, a
resolution has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

(b) The restrictions in Section 5.12(a) shall not apply to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) transactions exclusively between or among (A) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or
(B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) director, trustee, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including pursuant
to any employment agreement or any retirement, health, stock option or other benefit plan), payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees of the Issuer and indemnification arrangements, in each case, as reasonably determined in good
faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors or senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Permitted Investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with Section 5.8;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a
whole, is not, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, materially more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an
Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) (A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or the proceeds therefrom or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Guarantees by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the performance obligations of Unrestricted
Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (excluding guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a
letter from a Canadian or U.S. nationally recognized accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of
5.12(a)(i); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Financing.

**5.13** **Limitation on Liens** 

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its or their property or assets (including Equity Interests of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, which Lien secures Indebtedness, unless contemporaneously with the incurrence of such Lien:

(a) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks *pari passu* with the Notes or a Guarantee,
effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and

(b) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or a
Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

in each case, for so long as such obligation is secured by such Lien.

------

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "**Increased Amount**" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (a) through (ee) of the definition of "Permitted Liens," the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify and redivide any Lien described in clauses (a) through (ee) of the definition of "Permitted Liens" (provided that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

**5.14** **Offer to Purchase Notes upon Change of Control** 

(a) Subject to Section 5.14(h), upon the occurrence of any Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the
Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as described under Section 4.2, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer purchase all or any portion (in minimum denominations equal to
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer described in Section 5.14(b) (the "**Change of Control Offer**") for a cash price (the "**Change of Control Purchase Price**") equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the "**Change of Control Payment Date** ").

(b) No later than 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) offering to purchase, pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, on the Change of Control Payment Date specified
in such notice, which shall be a Business Day not earlier than 30 days nor, unless such Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event as contemplated by Section 5.14(h), later than 60 days from the
date such notice is delivered, and for the Change of Control Purchase Price, all Notes properly tendered by such Holder pursuant to such Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) describing the procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that Holders must
follow to accept the Change of Control Offer, to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

------

(c) On the Business Day immediately preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent
lawful, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered.

(d) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in minimum denominations equal to $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes accepted together with an Officers' Certificate
stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

(e) The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change

Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes so tendered, if any; *provided* that each such new Note will be in a in minimum denomination in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof.

(f) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest
payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date.

(g) A Change of Control Offer will be required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or for such longer
period as is required by law. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(h) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event and
a Holder will not have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase any Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer if (i) a third party makes an offer to purchase the Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in substantial compliance
with the requirements set forth in this Section 5.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, or (ii) a Redemption Notice has
been given pursuant to Section 4.2 unless and until there is a Default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.14, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a
third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of
Control Offer is made.

------

(i) The Issuer will comply with Applicable Securities Legislation and any other applicable laws and regulations in
connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Applicable Securities Legislation or other applicable laws and regulations conflict with the requirements of this Section 5.14,

may be waived, modified or terminated with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

Subject to Section 5.14 and Article 9, as the case may be, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary and the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; *provided* that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Issuer shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

**5.16** **Business Activities** 

The Issuer will engage, and will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to engage, only in businesses that, when considered together as a single enterprise, are primarily the Permitted Business.

**5.17** **Additional Guarantees** 

(a) If any of the Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor incurs or guarantees any
Triggering Indebtedness, then the Issuer shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 Business Days a supplemental
indenture in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver to the Trustee one or more Opinions of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee that such Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary.

------

Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

(b) The Issuer may also elect to cause any other Restricted Subsidiary to issue a Guarantee and become a Guarantor.

**5.18** **Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted** 

(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to Section 5.20(b), designate any Subsidiary (including
any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a
" **Designation** "); *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation
(unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer would be permitted to make, at the time of such Designation, (A) a Permitted Investment or
(B) an Investment pursuant to Section 5.8, in either case, in an amount (the "**Designation Amount**") equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on the date such Subsidiary is Designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any
agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding, taken as a whole, are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or
the Restricted Subsidiary than those that would reasonably be expected to be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Subsidiary has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any
Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless such guarantee is released concurrent with such Designation.

(b) For purposes of any Designation, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries
(except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of "Investment." Such Designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such
amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(c) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a
" **Redesignation**") only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Redesignation;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) all Liens upon property of such Unrestricted Subsidiary existing at the time of such Redesignation would be
permitted Section 5.13;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by such Unrestricted Subsidiary will be
deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and any such designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time in compliance with Section 5.8;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Redesignation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any
outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such Redesignation will only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 5.10, calculated on a *pro forma* basis as if such designation had occurred at the
beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) if required pursuant to Section 5.17, such Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor pursuant to such
Section within 10 Business Days of the date on which it is so designated.

**5.19** **Further Instruments and Acts** 

Upon request by the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.

**5.20** **Covenant Termination** 

(a) Following the first date that (a) the Notes have a rating equal to or higher than "BBB-" (or the equivalent) by S&P, "Baa3" (or equivalent) by Moody's or "BBB (low) (or equivalent)" by DBRS (or, if any such agency ceases to rate the Notes for reasons
outside of the control of the Issuer, the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any other "designated rating organization" within the meaning of National Instrument 51-102 *Continuous Disclosure Obligations* that is selected by the Issuer, which shall be substituted for any or all of S&P, Moody's or DBRS, as the case may be) and (b) no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the following provisions:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Section 9.1(a)(iii),

(collectively, the "**Eliminated Covenants**").

(b) After the Eliminated Covenants have been terminated in accordance with Section 5.20(a), the Issuer may not
designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

default:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) is caused by a failure to pay at its Stated Maturity principal on such Indebtedness within the applicable
express grace period and any extensions thereof (a "**Payment Default** "), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity (which acceleration is not

(i) any Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantee
and this Indenture) or is declared null and void and unenforceable or found to be invalid or any Guarantor denies its liability under the Guarantee of such Guarantor (other than by reason of release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture and such Guarantee).

**6.2** **Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, Annulment and Waiver** 

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) with respect to
the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the
Trustee, may declare (an "**acceleration declaration**") all amounts owing under the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration, the aggregate principal (and Premium, if any) of and accrued and unpaid interest on
the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) occurs with respect to the Issuer, then the principal of (and Premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on all
of the outstanding Notes will thereupon become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Issuer shall deliver to the
Trustee, within 10 days after the occurrence thereof, notice of any Payment Default or acceleration referred to in Section 6.1(e).

(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due
has been obtained by the Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the
Issuer, the Holders and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts
of principal of (and Premium, if any) or interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Notes (or any of
them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any Event of Default if, in the Trustee's opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor, and in such event
to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences;

*provided* that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 6.2(a), in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes
because an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged
or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by
the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not
been cured or waived during such period.

(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the
Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Premium, if any, on, or
the principal of, the Notes.

**6.3** **Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee** 

(a) The Issuer covenants that if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Default is made in the payment of any instalment of interest on any Note when such interest becomes due and
payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Default is made in the payment of the principal of (or Premium, if any on) any Note at the Maturity thereof and
such default continues for a period of three Business Days,

the Issuer will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal (and Premium, if any) and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and Premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue instalment of interest, at the rate borne by the Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

------

(b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of
an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor (including the
Guarantors, if any) upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

**6.4** **Trustee May File Proofs of Claim** 

(a) In case of any pending receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer and its debts or any other obligor upon the Notes (including the Guarantors, if any), and their debts or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the
payment of overdue principal (and Premium, if any) or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and Premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same,

and any Custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder.

(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt
on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

------

**6.5** **Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes** 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the rateable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

**6.6** **Application of Monies by Trustee** 

(a) Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6
shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or Premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of
the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) first, in payment or in reimbursement to the Trustee of its reasonable compensation, costs, charges, expenses,
borrowings, advances or other monies furnished or provided by or at the instance of the Trustee in or about the execution of its trusts under, or otherwise in relation to, this Indenture, with interest thereon as herein provided;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) second, but subject as hereinafter in this Section 6.6 provided, in payment, rateably and proportionately
to the Holders, of the principal of and Premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on the Notes which shall then be outstanding in the priority of principal first and then Premium and then accrued and unpaid
interest and interest on amounts in default unless otherwise directed by Extraordinary Resolution and in that case in such order or priority as between principal, Premium (if any) and interest as may be directed by such resolution; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) third, in payment of the surplus, if any, of such monies to the Issuer or its assigns and/or the Guarantors, as
the case may be;

*provided, however*, that no payment shall be made pursuant to clause (ii) in respect of the principal, Premium or interest on any Notes held, directly or indirectly, by or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than any Notes pledged for value and in good faith to a Person other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer but only to the extent of such Person's interest therein), except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal, Premium (if any) and interest (if any) on all Notes which are not so held.

------

(b) The Trustee shall not be bound to apply or make any partial or interim payment of any monies coming into its
hands if the amount so received by it, after reserving thereout such amount as the Trustee may think necessary to provide for the payments mentioned in Section 6.6(a), is insufficient to make a distribution of at least 2% of the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Notes, but it may retain the money so received by it and invest or deposit the same as provided in Section 10.9 until the money or the investments representing the same, with the income derived therefrom,
together with any other monies for the time being under its control shall be sufficient for the said purpose or until it shall consider it advisable to apply the same in the manner hereinbefore set forth. The foregoing shall, however, not apply to a
final payment or distribution hereunder.

**6.7** **No Suits by Holders** 

Except to enforce payment of the principal of, and Premium (if any) or interest on any Note (after giving effect to any applicable grace period specified therefor in Section 6.1(a)), no Holder shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a liquidator, trustee or receiver or for a receiving order under any Bankruptcy Laws or to have the Issuer or any Guarantor wound up or to file or prove a claim in any liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) the Holder gives the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes make a written request
to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liability or
expense;

(d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of
indemnity; and

(e) during such 60 day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do
not give the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request,

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and rateable benefit of all the Holders.

**6.8** **Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest** 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Holder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein of the principal of (and Premium, if any) and interest on the Notes held by such Holder on the applicable Maturity date and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

------

**6.9** **Restoration of Rights and Remedies** 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantors (if any), the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

**6.10** **Rights and Remedies Cumulative** 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

**6.11** **Delay or Omission Not Waiver** 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

**6.12** **Direction by Holders** 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee. However, subject to Subject to Section 10.3, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes.

**6.13** **Notice of Event of Default** 

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 13.2; *provided* that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.

------

**6.14** **Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws** 

The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

**6.15** **Undertaking for Costs** 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant.

**6.16** **Judgment Against the Issuer** 

The Issuer covenants and agrees with the Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Holders, judgment may be rendered against it in favour of the Holders or in favour of the Trustee, as trustee for the Holders, for any amount which may remain due in respect of the Notes and Premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

**6.17** **Immunity of Officers and Others** 

No director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Issuer, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Issuer is a trustee or carrier will have any liability for any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Notes or this Indenture or of any Guarantor under its Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release provided for in this Section 6.17 are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes and the Guarantees.

**6.18** **Notice of Payment by Trustee** 

Not less than 15 days' notice shall be given in the manner provided in Section 13.2 by the Trustee to the Holders of Notes of any payment to be made under this Article 6. Such notice shall state the time when and place where such payment is to be made and also the liability under this Indenture to which it is to be applied. After the day so fixed, unless payment shall have been duly demanded and have been refused, the Holders of Notes will be entitled to interest only on the balance (if any) of the principal monies, Premium (if any) and interest due (if any) to them, respectively, on the Notes, after deduction of the respective amounts payable in respect thereof on the day so fixed.

------

**6.19** **Trustee May Demand Production of Notes** 

The Trustee shall have the right to demand production of the Notes in respect of which any payment of principal, interest or Premium (if any) required by this Article 6 is made and may cause to be endorsed on the same a memorandum of the amount so paid and the date of payment, but the Trustee may, in its discretion, dispense with such production and endorsement, upon such indemnity being given to it and to the Issuer as the Trustee shall deem sufficient.

**ARTICLE 7** 

**<u>DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE</u>**

**7.1** **Satisfaction and Discharge** 

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect (except as to rights of transfer or exchange of Notes which shall survive until all Notes have been cancelled and the rights, protections and immunities of the Trustee) as to all outstanding Notes when either:

(a) all the Notes that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have
been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from this trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation;
or

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (b) (i) | all Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation otherwise (A) have become due and payable, or (B) will become due and payable within one year by reason of a notice of redemption or otherwise, and, in any case, the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in Canadian dollars, Canadian Government Obligations or a combination of any of the foregoing, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without consideration of any reinvestment of interest) to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness (including all principal, Premium (if any) and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption) under the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation;  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer has paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the
payment of the Notes at maturity or on the date of redemption, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i), the provisions of Sections 7.7 and 7.8 will survive.

------

**7.2** **Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance** 

The Issuer may, at the option of the Board of Directors of the Issuer evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers' Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 7.3 or 7.4 applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article 7.

**7.3** **Legal Defeasance and Discharge** 

(a) Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.3, the
Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations, other than the provisions contemplated to survive as set forth below, with
respect to all outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "**Legal Defeasance** "). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid
and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees thereof), which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of Sections 7.6 and 7.8 and the other Sections of
this Indenture referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, this Indenture and the Guarantees (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the rights of Holders of such Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, Premium, if any, and
interest on such Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust referred to in Section 7.6;

connection therewith under Sections 7.6, 7.7 and 7.8 and Article 10; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) this Section 7.3.

(b) Subject to compliance with Section 7.2, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 7.3
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 7.4.

**7.4** **Covenant Defeasance** 

Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.4, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, be released from each of their obligations under Sections 5.3, 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11, 5.12, 5.13, 5.14, 5.16, 5.17, 5.18 and 9.1(a)(iii) (collectively, the "**Defeased Covenants**") with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 7.5 are satisfied (hereinafter, "**Covenant Defeasance**"), and such Notes shall thereafter be deemed not "outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders thereof (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with the Defeased Covenants, but

------

shall continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any Defeased Covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, such Notes and the obligations of the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 7.2 of the option applicable to this Section 7.4, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.5, the events specified in Sections 6.1(c), 6.1(d), 6.1(e), 6.1(f), 6.1(g), 6.1(h) and 6.1(i) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default.

(a) In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance under Section 7.3 or Covenant Defeasance under
Section 7.4:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders and free
and clear of any Liens or adverse claims, cash in Canadian dollars, non-callable Canadian Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee, to pay the principal of, Premium (if any) and interest on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment
thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by the Internal Revenue Service, a ruling; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law;

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon this Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S.
federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) in the case of Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and qualified to practice in Canada or a ruling from Canada Revenue Agency to the effect that Holders of the outstanding Notes who are not resident in Canada should not recognize income, gain
or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, and should be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, had not occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either (A) on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings), or (B) insofar as Defaults from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on
the 91st day after the date of deposit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, after the expiration of three
months from the date of deposit and assuming that no intervening bankruptcy event has taken place in respect of the Issuer or any Guarantor between the date of deposit and the expiration of such three month period and assuming that no Holder was a non-arm's length party with respect to the Issuer or any Guarantor under applicable bankruptcy law, the deposit does not constitute a preferential payment that will be recoverable by a trustee in bankruptcy in
Canada pursuant to the provisions of the *Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act*, R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3, as amended;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not
made by it with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other of its creditors or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other of its creditors or others; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that the conditions precedent provided for in clauses (i) through (viii) have been complied with.

to Section 7.1 or 7.5 in respect of Notes shall be held by the Trustee in trust and applied by it in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the
Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and Premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such funds or Canadian Government Obligations has been deposited with the Trustee; *provided* that such funds or
Canadian Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds or obligations except to the extent required by law.

(b) If (x) the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any funds or Canadian Government Obligations in
accordance with Section 7.1 or 7.5 by reason of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application or (y) the funds deposited with the
Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes when due, then the Issuer's obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under this Indenture and the Guarantees will be revived and
reinstated and no such defeasance will be deemed to have occurred; *provided* that if the Issuer or any Guarantor has made any payment in respect of principal of, Premium, if any, or interest on any Notes or, as applicable, other amounts
because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer and such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the funds or Canadian Government Obligations held by the
Trustee.

**7.7** **Repayment to the Issuer** 

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 7 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any funds or Canadian Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 7.1 or 7.5 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer expressed in a written certification thereof, delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 7.5(a)(i)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to fully satisfy the obligations of the Issuer under Section 7.1(b)(i) or to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

the Issuer shall continue to have and be subject to their respective rights, duties and obligations under Article 2 and Article 4.

(b) In the event that, after the deposit of trust funds or trust property pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.5, the
Issuer is required to make an offer to purchase any outstanding Notes pursuant to the terms hereof, the Issuer shall be entitled to use any trust funds or trust property deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.5 for the purpose
of paying to any Holders of such Notes who have accepted any such offer of the total offer price payable in

**8.1** **Purpose, Effect and Convention of Meetings** 

(a) Subject to Section 11.2, wherever in this Indenture a consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution
of the Holders (or any of them) is required, a meeting may be convened in accordance with this Article 8 to consider and resolve whether such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution should be approved by such Holders. A resolution
passed by the affirmative votes of the Holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes represented and voting on a poll at a meeting of Holders duly convened for the purpose and held in accordance with the provisions
of this Indenture shall constitute conclusively such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution; *provided* that an Extraordinary Resolution shall be required wherever in this Indenture such consent, waiver, notice, authorization or
resolution of the Holders is required to be approved by Extraordinary Resolution.

(b) At any time and from time to time, the Trustee on behalf of the Issuer may and, on receipt of an Issuer Order
or a Holders' Request and upon being indemnified and funded for the costs thereof to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee by the Issuer or the Holders signing such Holders' Request, will, convene a meeting of all Holders.

(c) If the Trustee fails to convene a meeting after being duly requested as aforesaid (and indemnified and funded
as aforesaid), the Issuer or such Holders may themselves convene such meeting and the notice calling such meeting may be signed by such Person as the Issuer or those Holders designate, as applicable. Subject to Section 8.1(d), every such
meeting will be held in Calgary, Alberta or such other place as the Trustee may in any case determine or approve.

(d) A meeting of Holders may be held as a "virtual" or electronic meeting if required or desired by the
Issuer, the Trustee or the Holder(s) so convening the meeting. Such a meeting must allow all Holder(s) electronically present at the meeting to hear the proceedings of the meeting and vote electronically on matters before the meeting.

**8.2** **Notice of Meetings** 

Not more than 60 days' nor less than 21 days' notice of any meeting of the Holders shall be given to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 13.2 and a copy of such notice shall be sent by post to the Trustee, unless the meeting has been called by it, and to the Issuer, unless such meeting has been called by it.

------

attending the meeting, and shall state briefly the general nature of the business to be transacted thereat and it shall not be necessary for any such notice to set out the terms of any resolution to be proposed or any of the provisions of this Article 8. The accidental omission to give notice of a meeting to any Holder shall not invalidate any resolution passed at any such meeting. A Holder may waive notice of a meeting either before or after the meeting.

**8.3** **Chair** 

Some individual, who need not be a Holder, nominated in writing by the Trustee shall be chair of the meeting and if no individual is so nominated, or if the individual so nominated is not present within 15 minutes from the time fixed for the holding of the meeting, a majority of the Holders present in person or by proxy shall choose some individual present to be chair.

**8.4** **Quorum** 

Subject to this Indenture, at any meeting of the Holders, a quorum shall consist of Holders present in person or by proxy (electronically for a "virtual" or electronic meeting) and representing at least 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes. If a quorum of the Holders shall not be present within 30 minutes from the time fixed for holding any meeting, the meeting, if convened by the Holders or pursuant to a Holders' Request, shall be dissolved, but in any other case the meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is not a Business Day in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following Business Day thereafter) at the same time and place and no notice shall be required to be given in respect of such adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the Holders present in person or by proxy (electronically for a "virtual" or electronic meeting) shall constitute a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened notwithstanding that they may not represent 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at an adjourned meeting which might have been brought before or dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same. No business shall be transacted at any meeting unless the required quorum be present at the commencement of business.

**8.5** **Power to Adjourn** 

The chair of any meeting at which the requisite quorum of the Holders is present may, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes represented thereat, adjourn any such meeting and no notice of such adjournment need be given except such notice, if any, as the meeting may prescribe.

**8.6** **Voting** 

On a poll each Holder present in person or represented by a duly appointed proxy shall be entitled to one vote in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes of which it is the Holder. A proxyholder need not be a Holder. In the case of joint registered Holders of a Note, any one of them present in person or by proxy at the meeting may vote in the absence of the other or others; but in case more than one of them be present in person or by proxy (electronically for a "virtual" or electronic meeting), they shall vote together in respect of the Notes of which they are joint Holders.

------

**8.7** **Poll** 

A poll will be taken on every resolution and Extraordinary Resolution submitted for approval at a meeting of Holders, in such manner as the chair directs, and the results of such polls shall be binding on all Holders. Every resolution, other than an Extraordinary Resolution, will be decided by a majority of the votes cast on the poll for that resolution. An Extraordinary Resolution will require at least 66<sup>2</sup>/<sub>3</sub>% of the votes cast on the poll for that resolution to be in the affirmative in order for it to be passed.

**8.8** **Proxies** 

A Holder may be present and vote at any meeting of Holders by an authorized representative. The Issuer (in case it convenes the meeting) or the Trustee (in any other case) for the purpose of enabling the Holders to be present and vote at any meeting without producing their Notes, and of enabling them to be present and vote at any such meeting by proxy and of depositing instruments appointing such proxies at some place other than the place where the meeting is to be held, may from time to time make and vary such regulations as it shall think fit providing for and governing any or all of the following matters:

(a) the form of the instrument appointing a proxy, which shall be in writing, and the manner in which the same
shall be executed and the production of the authority of any individual signing on behalf of a Holder;

(b) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at such place as the Trustee, the Issuer or the Holder convening
the meeting, as the case may be, may, in the notice convening the meeting, direct and the time, if any, before the holding of the meeting or any adjournment thereof by which the same must be deposited; and

(c) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at some approved place or places, including electronically, other
than the place at which the meeting is to be held and enabling particulars of such instruments appointing proxies to be mailed, faxed, cabled, telegraphed or sent by other electronic means before the meeting to the Issuer or to the Trustee at the
place where the same is to be held and for the voting of proxies so deposited as though the instruments themselves were produced at the meeting.

Any regulations so made shall be binding and effective and the votes given in accordance therewith shall be valid and shall be counted. Save as such regulations may provide, the only Persons who shall be recognized at any meeting as the Holders of any Notes, or as entitled to vote or be present at the meeting in respect thereof, shall be Holders and Persons whom Holders have by instrument in writing duly appointed as their proxies.

**8.9** **Persons Entitled to Attend Meetings** 

The Issuer and the Trustee, by their respective directors, officers and employees and the respective legal advisors of the Issuer, the Trustee or any Holder may attend any meeting of the Holders, including electronically, but shall have no vote as such.

------

**8.10** **Powers Exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution** 

Subject to Article 11, a meeting of the Holders shall have the following powers exercisable from time to time by Extraordinary Resolution, subject in the case of the matters in paragraphs (g) and (h) to receipt of the prior approval of the exchange, if any, on which any securities of the Issuer are then listed (if required):

otherwise deal with the same upon payment, if the taking of such suit, action or proceeding shall have been permitted by Section 6.2, of the costs, charges and expenses reasonably and properly incurred by such Holder in connection therewith;

(d) power to assent to any compromise or arrangement with any creditor or creditors or any class or classes of
creditors, whether secured or otherwise, and with holders of any Equity Interests or other securities of the Issuer;

(e) power to appoint a committee with power and authority (subject to such limitations, if any, as may be
prescribed in the resolution) to exercise, and to direct the Trustee to exercise, on behalf of the Holders, such of the powers of the Holders as are exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution or other resolution as shall be included in the resolution
appointing the committee; *provided* that the following terms shall apply to the appointment of such committee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the resolution making such appointment may provide for payment of the expenses and disbursements of and
compensation to such committee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) such committee shall consist of such number of members as shall be prescribed in the resolution appointing it
and the members need not be themselves Holders;

thereof necessary to constitute a quorum; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) all acts of any such committee within the authority delegated to it shall be binding upon all Holders;

------

(f) power to remove the Trustee from office and to appoint a new Trustee or Trustees *provided* that no such
removal shall be effective unless and until a new Trustee or Trustees shall have become bound by this Indenture;

(g) power to sanction the exchange of the Notes for or the conversion thereof into shares, units, bonds, notes or
other securities or obligations of the Issuer or of any other Person formed or to be formed;

(h) power to authorize the distribution in specie of any shares, units, bonds, notes, securities or other
Obligations received pursuant to a transaction authorized under the provisions of Section 8.10(g); and

(i) power to amend, alter or repeal any Extraordinary Resolution previously passed or sanctioned by the Holders or
by any committee appointed pursuant to Section 8.10(e).

**8.11** **Powers Cumulative** 

Any one or more of the powers in this Indenture stated to be exercisable by the Holders by Extraordinary Resolution or otherwise may be exercised from time to time and the exercise of any one or more of such powers from time to time shall not be deemed to exhaust the rights of the Holders to exercise the same or any other such power or powers thereafter from time to time. No powers exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution will derogate in any way from the rights of the Issuer pursuant to this Indenture.

**8.12** **Minutes** 

Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting as aforesaid shall be made and duly entered in books to be from time to time provided for that purpose by the Trustee at the expense of the Issuer, and any such minutes as aforesaid, if signed by the chair of the meeting at which such resolutions were passed or proceedings had, or by the chair of the next succeeding meeting of the Holders, shall be prima facie evidence of the matters therein stated and, until the contrary is proved, every such meeting, in respect of the proceedings of which minutes shall have been made, shall be deemed to have been duly held and convened, and all resolutions passed thereat or proceedings taken thereat to have been duly passed and taken.

**8.13** **Instruments in Writing** 

Any consent, waiver, notice, authorization or resolution of the Holders which may be given by resolution at a meeting of the Holders pursuant to this Article 8 may also be given by the Holders of not less than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes by a signed instrument in one or more counterparts, except for matters required to be approved by Extraordinary Resolution in which case such matter may be approved by an instrument signed by 66<sup>2</sup>/<sub>3</sub>% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes, and the expressions "resolution" or "Extraordinary Resolution" when used in this Indenture will include instruments so signed. Notice of any resolution or Extraordinary Resolution passed in accordance with this Section 8.13 will be given by the Trustee to the affected Holders within 30 days of the date on which such resolution or Extraordinary Resolution was passed.

------

**8.14** **Binding Effect of Resolutions** 

Every resolution and every Extraordinary Resolution passed in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8 at a meeting of Holders shall be binding upon all the Holders, whether present at or absent from such meeting, and every instrument in writing signed by Holders in accordance with Section 8.13 shall be binding upon all the Holders, whether signatories thereto or not, and each and every Holder and the Trustee (subject to the provisions for its indemnity herein contained) shall, subject to applicable law, be bound to give effect accordingly to every such resolution, Extraordinary Resolution and instrument in writing.

**8.15** **Evidence of Rights of Holders** 

(a) Any request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument which this Indenture may require or permit to be
signed or executed by the Holders may be in any number of concurrent instruments of similar tenor signed or executed by such Holders. Proof of the execution of any such request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument or of a writing
appointing any such attorney will be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture if the fact and date of the execution by any Person of such request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument or writing may be proved by the certificate of any
notary public, or other officer authorized to take acknowledgements of deeds to be recorded at the place where such certificate is made, that the Person signing such request, direction, notice, consent or other instrument or writing acknowledged to
such notary public or other officer the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness of such execution or in any other manner which the Trustee may consider adequate.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.15(a), the Trustee may, in its discretion, require proof of execution in cases
where it deems proof desirable and may accept such proof as it shall consider proper.

**ARTICLE 9** 

**<u>SUCCESSORS TO THE ISSUER AND THE RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES</u>**

**9.1** **Restrictions on Amalgamation, Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Certain Assets** 

(a) The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions,
amalgamate, consolidate, or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving Person), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of the assets
of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer will be the surviving or continuing Person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Person (if other than the Issuer) formed by or surviving or continuing from such amalgamation,
consolidation, merger, winding up or dissolution or to which such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or assignment shall be made (collectively, the "**Successor**") is a corporation,

------

limited liability company or limited partnership organized and existing under the laws of Canada or any province thereof or the United States of America or of any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, and the Successor expressly assumes, by operation of law or Supplemental Indenture, all of the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture; *provided*, that if the Successor is not a corporation, a Restricted Subsidiary that is a corporation expressly assumes as co-obligor all of the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes pursuant to a supplemental indenture to this Indenture executed and delivered to the Trustee (for greater certainty, the Issuer shall be considered to be the Successor in the event of a statutory amalgamation governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof of the Issuer with any other Restricted Subsidiary);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as set forth in
clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) immediately after giving *pro forma* effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as
set forth in clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, (A) the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, could incur
$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 5.10(a) or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio for the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such
Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) promptly after the consummation of such transaction, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or transfer and such agreement and/or supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture;

*provided* that clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall not apply in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger with or into, or sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposal of or assignment of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to, another Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary.

For purposes of this Section 9.1(a), any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Issuer immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to have been incurred in connection with such transaction.

(b) Except in circumstances providing for the release of a Guarantor described under Section 12.10, no
Guarantor will, and the Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, (A) amalgamate, consolidate or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person
(whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person), or (B) sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of its assets to any Person (other than the Issuer or another Guarantor) unless either:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (1) such Guarantor will be the surviving or continuing Person; or (2) the Person (if other than such
Guarantor) formed by or surviving any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, winding-up or dissolution is another Guarantor or assumes, by operation of law or Supplemental Indenture, all of the obligations
of such Guarantor under the Guarantee of such Guarantor and this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) except in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance, or other
disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and any Guarantor, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease,
transfer, conveyance or other disposition, and such agreements and/or supplemental indenture (if any), comply with this Indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) in the case of a sale or other disposition, the transaction does not violate Section 5.11.

For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, the Equity Interests of which constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer, will be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.

(c) Upon any amalgamation, merger or consolidation of the Issuer or a Guarantor, or any transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with this Section 9.1, in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is not the continuing obligor under the Notes or its Guarantee, as applicable, the surviving entity formed by such
amalgamation, merger or consolidation or into which the Issuer or such Guarantor is merged or the Person to which the sale, conveyance, lease, transfer, disposition or assignment is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, the Issuer or such Guarantor under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named therein as the Issuer or such Guarantor and, except in the case of a lease, the
Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes or in respect of its Guarantee, as the case may be, and all of the Issuer's or such Guarantor's other
obligations and covenants under the Notes, this Indenture and its Guarantee, as applicable.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or
into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary, and (ii) the Issuer or any Guarantor may consolidate, merge or amalgamate
with or into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or part of its properties and assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor or merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer solely for the purpose of
reincorporating in Canada or a province thereof, a state of the United States or the District of Columbia, as long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby.

------

**9.2** **Vesting of Powers in Successor** 

Whenever the conditions of Section 9.1 have been duly observed and performed, the Trustee will execute and deliver a Supplemental Indenture as provided for in Section 11.5 and then:

(a) the Successor Person will possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of the
Issuer or Guarantor under this Indenture in the name of the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, or otherwise, and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required to be done or performed by any directors or officers of the Issuer or
Guarantor may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of such successor; and

(b) the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, will be released and discharged from liability under this Indenture and
the Trustee will execute any documents which it may be advised are necessary or advisable for effecting or evidencing such release and discharge.

**ARTICLE 10** 

**<u>CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE</u>**

**10.1** **No Conflict of Interest** 

The Trustee represents to the Issuer that at the date of execution and delivery by it of this Indenture there exists no material conflict of interest in the role of the Trustee as a fiduciary hereunder but if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.1, such a material conflict of interest exists, or hereafter arises, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and the Notes of any series shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such material conflict of interest exists or arises.

**10.2** **Replacement of Trustee** 

(a) The Trustee may resign its trust and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder by giving
to the Issuer 90 days' notice in writing or such shorter notice as the Issuer may accept as sufficient. If at any time a material conflict of interest exists in the Trustee's role as a fiduciary hereunder the Trustee shall, within 30
days after ascertaining that such a material conflict of interest exists, either eliminate such material conflict of interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 10.2. The validity and enforceability of this
Indenture and of the Notes issued hereunder shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such a material conflict of interest exists. In the event of the Trustee resigning or being removed or being dissolved, becoming bankrupt,
going into liquidation or otherwise becoming incapable of acting hereunder, the Issuer shall forthwith appoint a new Trustee unless a new Trustee has already been

------

appointed by the Holders in accordance with the provisions hereof. Failing such appointment by the Issuer, the retiring Trustee or any Holder may apply to a Judge of the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench, on such notice as such Judge may direct at the Issuer's expense, for the appointment of a new Trustee but any new Trustee so appointed by the Issuer or by the Court shall be subject to removal as aforesaid by the Holders and the appointment of such new Trustee shall be effective only upon such new Trustee becoming bound by this Indenture. Any new Trustee appointed under any provision of this Section 10.2 shall be a corporation authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in all of the Provinces of Canada. On any new appointment the new Trustee shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as Trustee.

(b) Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or, with or to which it may be consolidated, amalgamated or
sold, or any entity resulting from any merger, consolidation, sale or amalgamation to which the Trustee shall be a party, shall be the successor Trustee under this Indenture without the execution of any instrument or any further act. Nevertheless,
upon the written request of the successor Trustee or of the Issuer, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver an instrument assigning and transferring to such successor Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the rights, powers and
trusts of the retiring Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all property and money held by such Trustee to the successor Trustee so appointed in its place. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from
the Issuer or any Guarantor be required by any new Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts, then any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall on
request of said new Trustee, be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer or such Guarantor, as applicable.

**10.3** **Duties of Trustee** 

In the exercise of the rights, duties and obligations prescribed or conferred by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee shall act honestly and in good faith and exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent Trustee would exercise in comparable circumstances. Subject to the foregoing, the Trustee will be liable for its own wilful misconduct, bad faith and gross negligence. The Trustee will not be liable for any act or default on the part of any agent employed by it or a co-Trustee, or for having permitted any agent or co-Trustee to receive and retain any money payable to the Trustee, except as aforesaid.

**10.4** **Reliance Upon Declarations, Opinions, etc.** 

(a) In the exercise of its rights, duties and obligations hereunder the Trustee may, if acting in good faith and
subject to Section 10.7, rely, as to the truth of the statements and accuracy of the opinions expressed therein, upon statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates furnished pursuant to any covenant, condition or requirement of this
Indenture or required by the Trustee to be furnished to it in the exercise of its rights and duties hereunder, if the Trustee examines such statutory declarations, opinions, reports or certificates and determines that they comply with
Section 10.5, if applicable, and with any other applicable requirements of this Indenture. The Trustee may nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable. Without restricting the
foregoing, the Trustee may rely on an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee notwithstanding that it is delivered by a solicitor or firm which acts as solicitors for the Issuer.

------

(b) The Trustee shall have no obligation to ensure or verify compliance with any applicable laws or regulatory
requirements on the issue or transfer of any Notes provided such issue or transfer is effected in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to process all transfers and redemptions upon the presumption that such
transfer and redemption is permissible pursuant to all applicable laws and regulatory requirements if such transfer and redemption is effected in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee shall have no obligation, other than to confer
with the Issuer and its Counsel, to ensure that legends appearing on the Notes comply with regulatory requirements or securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

**10.5** **Evidence and Authority to Trustee, Opinions, etc.** 

(a) The Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee evidence of compliance with the conditions precedent provided for in
this Indenture relating to any action or step required or permitted to be taken by the Issuer or the Trustee under this Indenture or as a result of any obligation imposed under this Indenture, including without limitation, the authentication and
delivery of Notes hereunder, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the taking of any other action to be taken by the Trustee at the request of or on the application of the Issuer, forthwith if and when (a) such evidence is
required by any other Section of this Indenture to be furnished to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.5, or (b) the Trustee, in the exercise of its rights and duties under this Indenture, gives the Issuer written
notice requiring it to furnish such evidence in relation to any particular action or obligation specified in such notice. Such evidence shall consist of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) an Officers' Certificate, stating that any such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of a condition precedent the satisfaction of which is, by the terms of this Indenture, made subject
to review or examination by a solicitor, an Opinion of Counsel that such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) in the case of any such condition precedent the satisfaction of which is subject to review or examination by
auditors or accountants, an opinion or report of the Issuer's Auditors whom the Trustee for such purposes hereby approves, that such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of this Indenture,

*provided* that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the foregoing clause (ii) shall not apply to the execution of any supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture.

------

(b) Whenever such evidence relates to a matter other than the authentication and delivery of Notes and the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such evidence may consist of a report or opinion of any solicitor, auditor, accountant, engineer or appraiser or any other appraiser or any other
individual whose qualifications give authority to a statement made by such individual; *provided* that if such report or opinion is furnished by a director, officer or employee of the Issuer it shall be in the form of a statutory declaration.
Such evidence shall be, so far as appropriate, in accordance with Section 10.5(a).

(c) Each statutory declaration, certificate, opinion or report with respect to compliance with a condition
precedent provided for in this Indenture shall include (i) a statement by the individual giving the evidence that he or she has read and is familiar with those provisions of this Indenture relating to the condition precedent in question,
(ii) a brief statement of the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such evidence are based, (iii) a statement that, in the belief of the individual giving such evidence, he
or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to make the statements or give the opinions contained or expressed therein, and (iv) a statement whether in the opinion of such individual the conditions
precedent in question have been complied with or satisfied.

(d) In addition to its obligations under Section 5.6, the Issuer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Trustee at any time if the Trustee reasonably so requires, an Officers' Certificate certifying that the Issuer has complied with all covenants, conditions or other requirements contained in this Indenture, the non-compliance with which would constitute a Default or an Event of Default, or if such is not the case, specifying the covenant, condition or other requirement which has not been complied with and giving
particulars of such non-compliance. The Issuer shall, whenever the Trustee so requires, furnish the Trustee with evidence by way of statutory declaration, opinion, report or certificate as specified by the
Trustee as to any action or step required or permitted to be taken by the Issuer or as a result of any obligation imposed by this Indenture.

**10.6** **Officers' Certificates Evidence** 

Except as otherwise specifically provided or prescribed by this Indenture, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee, if acting in good faith, may rely upon an Officers' Certificate.

**10.7** **Experts, Advisers and Agents** 

Subject to Section 10.4, the Trustee may:

(a) employ or retain and act and rely on the opinion or advice of or information obtained from any solicitor,
auditor, valuator, engineer, surveyor, appraiser or other expert, whether obtained by the Trustee or by the Issuer, or otherwise, and shall not be liable for acting, or refusing to act, in good faith on any such opinion or advice and may pay proper
and reasonable compensation for all such legal and other advice or assistance as aforesaid; and

------

(b) employ such agents and other assistants as it may reasonably require for the proper discharge of its duties
hereunder, and may pay reasonable remuneration for all services performed for it (and shall be entitled to receive reasonable remuneration for all services performed by it) in the discharge of the trusts hereof and compensation for all
disbursements, costs and expenses made or incurred by it in the discharge of its duties hereunder and in the management of the trusts hereof and any solicitors employed or consulted by the Trustee may, but need not be, solicitors for the Issuer.

**10.8** **Trustee May Deal in Notes** 

Subject to Sections 10.1 and 10.3, the Trustee may, in its personal or other capacity, buy, sell, lend upon and deal in Notes and generally contract and enter into financial transactions with the Issuer or otherwise, without being liable to account for any profits made thereby. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench for permission to continue as Trustee hereunder or resign.

**10.9** **Investment of Monies Held by Trustee** 

(a) Unless otherwise provided in this Indenture, any monies held by the Trustee, which, under the trusts of this
Indenture, may or ought to be invested or which may be on deposit with the Trustee or which may be in the hands of the Trustee, may be invested and reinvested in the name or under the control of the Trustee in any of the securities, accounts, notes
certificates and deposits described in paragraphs (b) and (c) of the definition of Cash Equivalents; *provided* that such securities are expressed to mature within 90 days after their purchase by the Trustee or such shorter period as
required or selected by the Issuer to facilitate any payments expected to be made under this Indenture, after their purchase by the Trustee, and unless and until the Trustee shall have declared the principal of and Premium, if any, and interest on
the Notes to be due and payable, the Trustee shall so invest such monies pursuant to an Issuer Order given in a reasonably timely manner. Pending the investment of any monies as hereinbefore provided, such monies may be deposited in the name of the

**ARTICLE 12** 

**<u>SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES</u>**

**12.1** **Guarantee** 

(a) Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance hereof, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such
parties that the guarantee by such Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Bankruptcy Law or Canadian or United States federal, provincial or state law or the provisions of its local
law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance. To effect the foregoing intention, the Holders and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall,
after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under
its Guarantee or pursuant to Section 12.1(c), result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under any such federal, provincial or state law.

------

(b) Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, fully, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, to
each Holder, and to the Trustee in its individual capacity and on behalf of each Holder, the punctual payment and performance when due of all present and future Indenture Obligations which, for purposes of its Guarantee, shall also be deemed to
include (to the extent not otherwise included) all commissions, fees, charges, costs, liabilities and other expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel) arising out of or incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in
connection with the enforcement of any Guarantee, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and the Trustee from all losses, damages, costs, expenses and liabilities suffered or incurred by the Holders and the Trustee resulting or
arising from or relating to any failure by the Issuer to unconditionally and irrevocably pay in full or fully perform the Indenture Obligations as and when due; *provided* that the amount of such indemnification shall not exceed the amount of
such Indenture Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Indenture Obligations and would be owed by the Issuer to such Holder or the
Trustee under the Notes or this Indenture but for the fact that they are unenforceable, reduced, limited, suspended or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Issuer. Each Guarantee
shall be a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

(c) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree, among
themselves and not for the purpose of limiting the full, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable nature of their guarantee, that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Guarantor (a "**Funding Guarantor**") under its
Guarantee, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor (if any) in a pro rata amount based on the portion of the Consolidated Tangible Assets that is attributable to each Guarantor (including the Funding
Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by the Funding Guarantor in discharging its obligations pursuant to its Guarantee.

**12.2** **Guarantee Absolute** 

Each Guarantor guarantees that the Notes shall be paid or performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Holder with respect thereto. The obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee are independent of the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor to enforce its Guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or whether the Issuer or any other Guarantor is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be absolute and unconditional and the liability and obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall not be released, discharged, mitigated, waived, impaired or affected in whole or in part by:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Indenture or the Notes with respect to the Issuer or any
Guarantor or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

------

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Indenture
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Indenture, including any increase in the Indenture Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Issuer or otherwise;

(c) the failure to give notice to the Guarantor of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under the
provisions of this Indenture or the Notes;

(d) any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee, for all or any
of the Indenture Obligations;

(e) any failure, omission, delay by or inability on the part of the Trustee or the Holders to assert or exercise
any right, power or remedy conferred on the Trustee or the Holders in this Indenture or the Notes;

(f) any change in the corporate structure or other legal structure, or termination, dissolution, amalgamation,
consolidation or merger of the Issuer or any Guarantor with or into any other Person, the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the
marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition with the creditors, or readjustment of, or other
similar proceedings affecting the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any of the assets of any of them;

(g) the assignment of any right, title or interest of the Trustee or any Holder in this Indenture or the Notes to
any other Person; or

(h) any other event or circumstance (including any statute of limitations), whether foreseen or unforeseen and
whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, that might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a discharge of, the Issuer or a Guarantor, other than payment in full of the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer; it being the intent
of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by payment and performance of all such Indenture Obligations.

The Guarantee of each Guarantor shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Holder or the Trustee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Each Guarantor further agrees, to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so, that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand: (i) the Maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of this Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby; and (ii) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee. This Section shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by the Trustee or any Holder in reliance upon such amount required to be returned. This Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

------

**12.3** **Waivers** 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) notice of the acceptance of
its Guarantee and notice of the existence, renewal, extension or the non-performance, non-payment, or non-observance on the part
of the Issuer of any of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Indenture or the Notes or any other notice whatsoever to or upon the Issuer or such Guarantor with respect to the Indenture Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby
acknowledges communication to it of the terms of this Indenture and the Notes and all of the provisions herein and therein contained and consents to and approves the same. Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law)
diligence, presentment and protest.

(b) Without prejudice to any of the rights or recourse which the Trustee or the Holders may have against the
Issuer, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by law) any right to require the Trustee or the Holders to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) initiate or exhaust any rights, remedies or recourse against the Issuer, any Guarantor or any other Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) value, realize upon, or dispose of any security of the Issuer or any other Person held by the Trustee or the
Holders; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) initiate or exhaust any other remedy which the Trustee or the Holders may have in law or equity, before
requiring, becoming entitled to or demanding payment from such Guarantor under this Guarantee.

**12.4** **Subrogation** 

Each Guarantor shall not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Guarantee, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until all the Indenture Obligations of the Issuer shall have been paid in full in cash. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights at any time when all such Indenture Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders and the Trustee and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, to be credited and applied to the Indenture Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

**12.5** **No Waiver; Remedies** 

No failure on the part of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

------

**12.6** **Continuing Guarantee; No Right of Set-Off; Independent Obligation** 

(a) This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee of the payment and performance of all of Indenture Obligations and
shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full in cash of all such Indenture Obligations and shall apply to and secure any ultimate balance due or remaining unpaid to the Trustee or the Holders under this Indenture or the Notes; and
this Guarantee shall not be considered as wholly or partially satisfied by the payment or liquidation at any time or from time to time of any sum of money for the time being due or remaining unpaid to the Trustee or the Holders.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that the Indenture Obligations shall be paid to the Trustee without set off or
counterclaim or other reduction whatsoever (whether for taxes, withholding or otherwise), in lawful currency of Canada.

(c) Each Guarantor guarantees that the Indenture Obligations shall be paid strictly in accordance with their terms
regardless of any lack of validity or enforceability of any of such terms or the rights of the Holders with respect thereto.

(d) Each Guarantor's liability to pay or perform or cause the performance of the Indenture Obligations under
this Guarantee shall arise forthwith after demand for payment or performance by the Trustee has been given to such Guarantor in the manner prescribed in this Indenture.

**12.7** **Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms** 

Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Guarantor, which amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance is otherwise not prohibited by this Indenture.

**12.8** **Benefits Acknowledged** 

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its guarantee and waivers pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

(Back of 3.875% Senior Note)

3.875% Senior Notes due 2026

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. <u>Interest</u>. Parkland Corporation, a corporation amalgamated under the laws of the Province of Alberta and any successor thereto ("Parkland" or the "Issuer") promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 3.875% Senior Note due 2026 (a "Note") at a fixed rate of 3.875% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest in Canadian dollars (except as otherwise provided herein) semi-annually in arrears on June 16 and December 16 in each year, commencing on December 16, 2021 (each an "Interest Payment Date") or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest shall accrue solely as a result of such delayed payment. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the date of issuance to, but excluding, the next interest payment date. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue instalments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest on the Notes shall be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; provided that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day. For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), whenever interest is calculated under this Note on the basis of a year which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as an annual rate by multiplying such rate of interest by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such calendar year, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the deemed year.

Interest hereon shall be payable by cheque mailed by prepaid ordinary mail or by electronic transfer of funds to the registered holder hereof and, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the mailing of such cheque or the electronic transfer of such funds shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby (plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld), satisfy and discharge all liability for interest on this Note.

2. <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on June 1 and December 1 preceding the Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day), even if such Notes are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.15 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest.

The principal hereof may become or be declared due and payable before the Stated Maturity in the events, in the manner, with the effect and at the times provided in the Indenture.

Appendix A - 4

**ARTICLE II** 

**THE SECURITIES** 

Section 2.1 *Form and Dating*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(a) General*. The Securities and the U.S. Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities shall be in minimum denominations of US$2,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. The terms and provisions contained in the Securities shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustees, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Security or any Guarantee conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture (to the extent permitted by law) shall govern and be controlling.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(b) Global Securities*. The Securities issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto (including the Global Security Legend thereon and the "Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security" attached thereto). The Securities issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto (but without the Global Security Legend thereon and without the "Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security" attached thereto). Each Global Security shall represent the amount of outstanding Securities specified therein, and each Global Security shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities from time to time

------

endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the U.S. Trustee or the Securities Custodian, at the direction of the U.S. Trustee, in accordance with the instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> hereof.

*() Regulation S Global Securities*. Any Securities offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of a Regulation S Global Security, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Securities Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the U.S. Trustee as hereinafter provided. Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, any resale or transfer of beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Security to U.S. Persons shall not be permitted unless such resale or transfer is made pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(a) 144A Global Securities*. Any Securities offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of a 144A Global Security, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Securities Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the U.S. Trustee as hereinafter provided.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(b) Definitive Securities*. Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.1</u>,<u> </u>any issuance of Definitive Securities shall be at the Issuer's discretion, except in the circumstances set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(a)</u> hereof.

Section 2.2 *Execution and Authentication*

An Officer shall sign the Securities for the Issuer by manual, facsimile or electronically transmitted signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the U.S. Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the U.S. Trustee manually authenticates the Security. The signature of the U.S. Trustee on a Security shall be conclusive evidence that such Security has been duly and validly authenticated and issued under this Indenture.

The U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver: (i) Initial Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of US$500,000,000 on the Issue Date, and (ii) if and when issued, Additional Securities (which may be issued in either a registered or a private offering under the U.S. Securities Act), in each case upon a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer (each, an "*Authentication Order*"). Such order shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated and whether the Securities are to be in global or definitive form and whether they are to bear the Private Placement Legend. the Issuer may issue Additional Securities under this Indenture subsequent to the Issue Date.

------

The U.S. Trustee may appoint an agent (the "*Authenticating Agent*") reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Securities whenever the U.S. Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the U.S. Trustee includes authentication by such agent.

Section 2.3 *Registrar and Paying Agent*

The Issuer shall at all times maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the "*Registrar*"), and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the "*Paying Agent*"). The Securities will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed by such Paying Agent to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; *provided* that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, and premium, if any, on all Global Securities and all other Securities, the Holders of which hold at least US$5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Securities and have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer and the Paying Agent for an account in the U.S. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar, and the term "Paying Agent" includes any such additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice to any Holder.

The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, subject to the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>4.15</u>. Any Paying Agent or Registrar may resign as such upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Issuer and the Trustees; upon resignation of any Paying Agent or Registrar, the Issuer shall appoint a successor Paying Agent or Registrar, as the case may be, complying with the requirements of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u>, no later than 30 days thereafter and shall provide notice to the Trustees of such successor Paying Agent or Registrar.

If at any time there shall be Securities outstanding that are not Global Securities and there shall be no Paying Agent with an office or agency in the City of New York, State of New York, where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, the Issuer shall forthwith designate such a Paying Agent in order that the Securities shall at all times be payable in the City of New York, the State of New York. The Issuer initially appoints the U.S. Trustee to act as Depositary Custodian with respect to the Global Securities. The Trustees and each Agent are hereby authorized to act in accordance with Applicable Procedures with respect to any Global Security.

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company ("*DTC*") to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Securities.

The Issuer initially appoints Computershare Trust Company, N.A. as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Securities.

------

Section 2.4 *Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust*

By at least 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Security is due and payable, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest when due. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent (other than the U.S. Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the U.S. Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest (if any) on the Securities and shall notify the U.S. Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the U.S. Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the U.S. Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.4</u>, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the U.S. Trustee.

Section 2.5 *Holder Lists*

The U.S. Trustee, as Registrar, shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the U.S. Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the U.S. Trustee, in writing at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the U.S. Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders.

Section 2.6 *Additional Amounts*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer under or with respect to the Securities or by or on behalf of any Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee, will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Relevant Taxing Authority, unless required by law or the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Issuer or a Guarantor is obligated to withhold or deduct any amount on account of taxes imposed by any Relevant Taxing Authority from any payment made with respect to the Securities, the Issuer or such Guarantor will:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with the applicable
law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) subject to the limitations below, pay to each Holder, as additional interest, such additional amounts
(" *Additional Amounts*") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such
taxes had not been withheld or deducted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) furnish to the Trustees for the benefit of the Holders, within 60 days after the date payment of any taxes are
due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of an official receipt of the Relevant Taxing Authority for all amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to applicable law, or if such receipts are not reasonably obtainable, other evidence of payment by
the Issuer or such Guarantor of those taxes; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) at least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable (or, if the obligation to pay
any Additional Amounts does not arise more than 20 days prior to the applicable payment date, reasonably promptly after such obligation arises), deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Additional
Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustees may request to enable the U.S. Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>2.6(a)</u>, neither the Issuer nor a Guarantor will pay Additional Amounts with respect to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Canadian taxes that were imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a Holder or
beneficial owner with which the Issuer, such Guarantor or any transferee to whom a Security is assigned or otherwise transferred, does not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time of making such
payment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any Canadian taxes that were imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a
"specified non-resident shareholder" of the Issuer or such Guarantor or a non-resident person who does not deal at arm's length with a specified
shareholder of the Issuer or such Guarantor, both for the purposes of subsection 18(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any taxes imposed as a result of the Holder or the beneficial owner being a resident, domicile or national of,
or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some present or former actual or deemed connection with, the Relevant Taxing Authority otherwise than by the mere acquisition, holding,
disposition or enforcement of the Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the
Securities to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and only if such Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to
provide such form or document, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to
enable the Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Securities or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be
delivered within 30 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any estate, inheritance, gift, wealth or net worth, sales, goods and services, harmonized sales, transfer,
capital gains, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding from
payments under or with respect to the Securities (other than taxes payable pursuant to Regulation 803 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or any similar successor provision);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) any tax to the extent such tax was imposed as a result of the beneficiary of the payment not presenting the
Security for payment within 30 days after the date on which such payment on such Security became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to
the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settler with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner
who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) that is imposed under FATCA; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any combination of (i) through (ix).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, purchase price, redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Security, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

Section 2.7 *Transfer and Exchange*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities*. A Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. Owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities shall not be entitled to receive Definitive Securities unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Issuer delivers to the Trustees and the Registrar notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default and the Depositary notifies the Trustees and the Registrar of its decision to exchange the Global Securities for Definitive Securities; *provided* that in no event shall the Regulation S Global Security be exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Securities prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period.

------

Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events in (1) or (2) above, Definitive Securities shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the U.S. Trustee and the Registrar.

Every Security authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u> hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security. A Global Security may not be exchanged for another Security other than as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(a)</u>; however, beneficial interests in a Global Security may be transferred and exchanged as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(b)</u>, <u>(c)</u> or <u>(f)</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Securities*.

Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Securities also shall require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u>, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Security*. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Security may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Security in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend; *provided, however*, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, (A) transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Security may not be to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser) and (B) such beneficial interests may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream (as Indirect Participants in the Depositary). Beneficial interests in such Unrestricted Global Security may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in the preceding sentence of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(b)(1)</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) (i) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Security shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(b)(2)(B)(i)</u> above; *provided* that in no event shall Definitive Securities be issued upon the transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Security prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) The Trustees shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of optional redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Securities. The Trustees shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither the Trustees nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

Section 2.8 *Replacement Securities*

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar, or the Issuer and the Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Issuer will issue and the U.S. Trustee, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer conforming to <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof, will authenticate a replacement Security if the Registrar's and the Issuer's reasonable requirements are met. If required by the Registrar or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Registrar, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the U.S. Trustee, the Registrar, any other Agent and any Authenticating Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced.

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder, *provided* it is held by a protected purchaser within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code.

------

Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u>, rather than authenticating and delivering a replacement Security for a mutilated, destroyed, loss or stolen Security which has been redeemed or the principal of which has matured, the Issuer or the Paying Agent may make payment of the amount due on such security to the Holder upon receipt of the above-described indemnity bond.

Section 2.9 *Outstanding Securities*

The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the U.S. Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the U.S. Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.9</u> as not outstanding. Except as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.6</u> hereof, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the U.S. Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.10 *Temporary Securities*

Until Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Holders of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a holder of Definitive Securities.

Section 2.11 *Cancellation*

The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the U.S. Trustee or any Registrar for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the U.S. Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The U.S. Trustee or the Registrar (and no one else) shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation in accordance with its retention policy then in effect. The Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the U.S. Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation.

------

Section 2.12 *Defaulted Interest*

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest ("*Defaulted Interest*") on the Securities, the Issuer shall pay Defaulted Interest (as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u>) in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay the Defaulted Interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed (or upon the Issuer's failure to do so the U.S. Trustee shall fix pursuant to a written instruction of Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities) any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the U.S. Trustee which special record date shall not be less than 10 days prior to the payment date for such Defaulted Interest and the Issuer, or at the Issuer's request, the U.S. Trustee, shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of Defaulted Interest to be paid. The Issuer shall notify the Trustees in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the U.S. Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the U.S. Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.12</u>.<u> </u>

Section 2.13 *CUSIP Numbers*

The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP," "ISIN" or similar numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the U.S. Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; *provided*, *however*, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustees in writing of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

**ARTICLE III** 

**REDEMPTION** 

Section 3.1 *Notices to U.S. Trustee*

If the Issuer elects to redeem Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>4.13(k)</u> hereof, it shall notify the U.S. Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed.

The Issuer shall give each notice to the U.S. Trustee and the Registrar provided for in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.1</u> at least three (3) Business Days before the date of giving notice of the redemption pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.3</u>, unless the U.S. Trustee consents to a shorter period. If such redemption is to be effected pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>4.13(k)</u>, then such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers' Certificate to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions therein. If fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Issuer and set forth in the related notice given to the U.S. Trustee, which record date shall be not less than 15 days after the date of such notice.

Section 3.2 *Partial Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the Securities are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange on which such Securities are listed; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the Securities are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or based on a
method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustees in their sole discretion deem fair and appropriate (or, in the case of Global Securities, based on a method in accordance with the procedures of DTC) unless otherwise required
by applicable law or depository requirements,

*provided* that if less than all the Securities are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u>, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as described in clause (ii) unless that method is otherwise prohibited. Subject to the foregoing, Securities or portions of Securities the U.S. Trustee selects for redemption shall be in minimum amounts of US$2,000 or a multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If Securities are to be redeemed in part only, the Redemption Notice that

relates to such Securities will state the portion of the principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed. In the event that one or more of such Securities becomes subject to redemption in part only, upon surrender of any such Securities for payment of the redemption price, together with interest accrued to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, the Issuer shall execute and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without charge to the Holder thereof or upon the Holder's order one or more new Securities for the unredeemed part of the principal amount of the Securities so surrendered or, with respect to Global Securities, the U.S. Trustee shall make notations on the Global Securities of the principal amount thereof so redeemed. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Security" or "Securities" as used in this <u>Article III</u> shall be deemed to mean or include any part of the principal amount of any Security which in accordance with the foregoing provisions has become subject to redemption.

Section 3.3 *Notice of Redemption*

Notice of redemption (the "*Redemption Notice*") of any Securities shall be given to the Holders of the Securities so to be redeemed not more than 60 days nor less than 15 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the "*Redemption Date*") in the manner provided in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>; *provided* that Redemption Notices in respect of optional redemptions of Securities may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the Redemption Notice is issued in connection with a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Every such Redemption Notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date, the redemption price and the places of payment and shall state that interest upon the principal amount of Securities called for redemption shall cease to be payable from and after the Redemption Date. Redemption Notices, including, without limitation, upon a Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event, may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. If a Redemption Notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such Redemption Notice shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the

------

event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date as stated in such Redemption Notice, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer may provide in such Redemption Notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer's obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

In addition, unless all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the Redemption Notice shall specify:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the CUSIP, ISIN or similar numbers, if any, printed on the Securities which are to be redeemed (as are registered in the name of such Holder);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if such Securities are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to identify the Securities so selected;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) in the case of Global Securities, that the redemption will take place in such manner as may be agreed upon by the Depositary, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) in all cases, the principal amounts of such Securities or, if any such Security is to be redeemed in part only, the principal amount of such part.

Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, in the event that all Securities to be redeemed are Global Securities, publication of the Redemption Notice shall not be required.

Section 3.4 *Effect of Notice of Redemption*

Once notice of redemption is mailed to Holders, Securities (or portions thereof) called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of any condition permitted below. A notice of redemption may be subject to one or more conditions precedent specified in the notice of redemption, including completion of a Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date; *provided* that if the Redemption Date is after the taking of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the redeemed Securities are registered on such record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

Section 3.5 *Deposit of Redemption Price*

No later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities to be redeemed on that date. If the Issuer complies with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>3.5</u>, then on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption.

------

Section 3.6 *Optional Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time prior to July 15, 2022, the Issuer, at its option, may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Securities), at a redemption price equal to 105.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities to be redeemed, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings; *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (including Additional Securities) remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such redemption; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) each such redemption occurs not more than 90 days after the date of the closing of the related Qualified Equity Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time prior to July 15, 2022, the Issuer may redeem the Securities, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Except pursuant to <u>Sections 3.6(a)</u>, <u>3.6(b)</u> and <u>3.6(e)</u>, the Securities will not be redeemable at the Issuer's option prior to July 15, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) At any time or from time to time on or after July 15, 2022, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem all or a part of the Securities at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if any, on the Securities to be redeemed, to the applicable Redemption Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on July 15 of the years indicated below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Year | Percentage |
| 2022 | 104.406% |
| 2023 | 102.938% |
| 2024 | 101.469% |
|  2025 and thereafter | 100.000% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes obligated to pay any Additional

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Amounts as a result of a change in the laws, treaties or regulations of any Relevant Taxing Authority, or a change in any official position regarding the application, interpretation or administration thereof (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction) or assessing practice with respect thereto, the enactment or adoption of which change is publicly announced on or after the date of this Indenture and such Additional Amounts cannot (as certified in an Officers' Certificate to the Trustees) be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, then the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the affected Securities, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 15 days' nor more than 60 days' notice (such notice to be provided not more than 90 days before the next date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts, if a payment on the Securities were due on such date), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the

------

Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date). Notice of the Issuer's intent to redeem the affected Securities shall not be effective until such time as it delivers to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts because of an amendment to or change in law, treaty or regulation or other position as described in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(e)</u>.<u> </u>

Section 3.7 *Mandatory Redemption*

The Issuer is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities; *provided*, *however*, that under certain circumstances the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase the Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>.<u> </u>

**ARTICLE IV** 

**COVENANTS** 

Section 4.1 *Payment of Principal, Premium, and Interest*

The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities that it shall promptly pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities, this Indenture. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be deemed due for all purposes under this Indenture whether such payments are due at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon required repurchase pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> or <u>4.13</u> hereof, upon declaration or otherwise. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date due if by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such date the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due.

The Issuer will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the rate then in effect on the Securities; it will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate as on overdue principal.

Section 4.2 *Reports and Financial Information*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will provide the Trustees, and the U.S. Trustee will deliver to all the Holders, the following information (collectively, the "*Financial Reports*"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) within 90 days of the end of each fiscal year, annual audited financial statements for such fiscal year
(along with customary comparative results) and (B) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, unaudited financial statements for the interim period as at, and for the period ending on, the end of
such fiscal quarter (along with comparative results for the corresponding interim period in the prior year), in each case, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" with
respect to the periods presented and, with respect to the annual information only, (x) a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer's certified independent accountants and (y) information of the type and scope contained
in the Offering Memorandum under the caption "Business" (all of the foregoing information to be prepared on a basis substantially consistent with the corresponding information included or described in the Offering Memorandum);

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) within 10 days after the occurrence of each event constituting a "material change" (as defined in
the Securities Act (Alberta)) that would have been required to be reported (pursuant to applicable rules and regulations in effect on the Issue Date) in a report under the Securities Act (Alberta) if the Issuer had been a "reporting
issuer" under the Securities Act (Alberta), a report containing substantially all of the information that would have been required to be contained (pursuant to the Securities Act (Alberta) and applicable rules and regulations thereunder) in
such report,

*provided*, *however*, that (x) Financial Reports shall be deemed to have been provided to the Trustees and the Holders once filed on the SEDAR website at <u>www.SEDAR.com</u> or filed with the SEC on the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system ("*EDGAR*") and (y) Financial Reports will not be required to include any reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with respect to financial information reported pursuant to GAAP.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u> will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto or in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries excluding such Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If and for so long as any Securities remain outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the U.S. Securities Act, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act (for so long as such information is required in order to permit resales of the Securities pursuant to Rule 144A).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Financial Reports are available on SEDAR, or on EDGAR, or on any successor system thereto, the Issuer will also maintain a website to which the beneficial holders of the Securities are given free access and on which, not later than the date by which the Financial Reports are required to be provided to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u>, such Financial Reports are made available. Making such Financial Reports so available shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u> that such Financial Reports be provided to the Trustees and delivered to the Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Unless the Issuer is a "reporting issuer" (or its equivalent) required to file information with one or more securities regulators in Canada, no later than five Business Days after the date the annual and quarterly Financial Reports have been furnished pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)(i)</u>, the Issuer shall also hold a live quarterly conference call with the opportunity for participants to ask questions of management. No fewer than three Business Days prior to the date such conference call is to be held, the Issuer shall issue a press release (which release shall be immediately filed on SEDAR or any successor system thereto or, if the applicable

------

Canadian securities regulators do not permit such filing, immediately provided to the Trustees and the Holders) announcing such quarterly conference call, which press release shall contain the time and the date of such conference call and direct the recipients thereof to contact an individual at the Issuer (for whom contact information shall be provided in such notice) to obtain information on how to access such quarterly conference call.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Trustees will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing or posting of such Financial Reports has occurred; delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustees is for informational purposes only and the Trustees' receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer's compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture (as to which each Trustee is entitled to rely on officer's certificates).

Section 4.3 *Limitations in Incurrence of Indebtedness*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); provided that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur additional Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), in each case, if, after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, (i) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default will have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a consequence of incurring the Indebtedness or entering into the transactions relating to such incurrence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u>, each of the following incurrences of Indebtedness shall be permitted ("*Permitted Indebtedness*"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Indebtedness of the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under the Credit Facilities in an aggregate
principal amount at any time outstanding, including the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers' acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers' acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the
face amount thereof), together with any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof pursuant to subclause (y) below, not to exceed the greater of (A) C$1,500 million or (B) 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow during the most
recent four consecutive full fiscal quarters for which financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP are available (determined at the time of incurrence after giving effect to the pro forma adjustments set forth in
the definition of "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio") and (y) all Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clause (xi) below in respect of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to subclause (x) above, plus, in each case,
the amount of fees, expenses and premiums incurred in connection with any refinancing thereof; *provided*, *however*, that the amount permitted to be incurred under Credit Facilities pursuant to clause (i)(B) above shall be increased to up
to 4.0 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) in respect of Indebtedness incurred on the closing date of any Significant Acquisition (the "*Significant Acquisition Closing Date*") or within two Business
Days of such Significant Acquisition Closing Date so long as the portion of any such incurred Indebtedness which exceeds 3.50 times

------

the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) is incurred to finance, directly or indirectly, such Significant Acquisition (in which case such excess portion of the Indebtedness is referred to as an "*Incremental Acquisition Financing*"); and provided further that any Incremental Acquisition Financing that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs in reliance on the foregoing proviso shall be permanently repaid by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries under such Credit Facilities within 180 days after the Significant Acquisition Closing Date unless (and solely to the extent) that at the expiration of such 180 day period the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be permitted to incur the portion of the Incremental Acquisition Financing that remains outstanding at such time pursuant to clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) above;

(ii) Indebtedness represented by the Securities issued on the Issue Date and the Guarantees;

(iii) Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent outstanding on the Issue Date after
giving effect to the use of proceeds of the Securities, including without limitation the Existing Notes and the guarantees thereof (other than Indebtedness referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x) and (xii));

(iv) guarantees by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture; provided that in the event such Indebtedness that is being guaranteed is Subordinated Indebtedness, then the related guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or the Guarantees, as
the case may be;

(v) Indebtedness under Hedging Obligations entered into for bona fide hedging purposes of the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and not for speculative purposes;

(vi) Indebtedness of the Issuer owed to and held by a Restricted Subsidiary and Indebtedness of any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries owed to and held by the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; *provided*, *however*, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) if the Issuer is the obligor on Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if a Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>: <u> </u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted
Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xviii) of <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)</u> or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u>, the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item
of Indebtedness and may divide and classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described therein (except that Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been
incurred under <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)(i)</u>), and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xviii) of <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)</u> (provided that at the time of reclassification
it meets the criteria in such category or categories);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the
determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could have incurred such Indebtedness;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to
the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Indebtedness of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or
amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed to have been incurred by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
(or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>, the Issuer shall be
in Default of this covenant; provided that any Indebtedness of such Person that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon consummation of the transaction by which such Person becomes a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) will be deemed to not be Indebtedness for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>. <u> </u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; *provided* that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

" *Restricted Payments Basket*") of (without duplication):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) 50% of Consolidated Net Income of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries for the period (taken as one
accounting period) commencing on July 1, 2014 to and including the last day of the fiscal quarter ended immediately prior to the date of such calculation for which consolidated financial statements are available (or, if such Consolidated Net
Income shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), plus

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) 100% of (1) the aggregate net cash proceeds and (2) the Fair Market Value of (x) marketable
securities (other than marketable securities of the Issuer), (y) Equity Interests of a Person (other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer) engaged in a Permitted Business and (z) other assets used in any Permitted Business, received by

convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Issuer that have been converted into or exchanged for such Qualified Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests or debt securities sold to a Subsidiary of the Issuer), *plus*

2026 Notes Issue Date of any such Indebtedness into or for Qualified Equity Interests (less the amount of any cash, or the Fair Market Value of any other property, distributed by the Issuer upon such conversion or exchange), *plus* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) in the case of the disposition or repayment of or return on any Investment that was treated as a Restricted
Payment made by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries after the 2026 Notes Issue Date (other than the release of any guarantee), an amount (to the extent not included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the lesser of
(1) 100% of the aggregate amount received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in cash or other property (valued at the Fair Market Value thereof) as the return of capital with respect to such Investment and (2) the amount of
such Investment that was treated as a Restricted Payment, in either case, less the cost of the disposition of such Investment and net of taxes, *plus* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) in the case of the release of any guarantee that was treated as a Restricted Payment made by the Issuer or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries after the 2026 Notes Issue Date, an amount equal to the amount of such guarantee that was treated as a Restricted Payment less any amount paid under such guarantee, *plus* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F) upon a Redesignation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, an amount (to the extent not
included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the lesser of (1) the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary immediately following such Redesignation, and (2) the aggregate amount
of the Issuer's Investments in such Subsidiary to the extent such Investments reduced the Restricted Payments Basket and were not previously repaid or otherwise reduced.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks *pari passu* with the Securities or a Guarantee,
effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or a
Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

------

in each case, for so long as such obligation is secured by such Lien.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "*Increased Amount*" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.5</u>, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (i) through (xxviii) of the definition of "Permitted Liens," the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify any Lien described in clauses (i) through (xxviii) of the definition of "Permitted Liens" (*provided* that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

Section 4.6 *Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u>, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or permit to become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to:

its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Shares in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends
or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Equity Interests);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) make loans or advances, or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed, to the Issuer or any other Restricted
Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to other Indebtedness or obligations incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

------

(iv) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in
existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the
property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired (including after acquired property);

(v) any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing of an

or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, no more restrictive than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u> on the Issue Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was amalgamated or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable;

(ix) any agreement to sell Equity Interests or assets, as permitted under this Indenture, to any Person pending the
closing of such sale;

(x) any other agreement governing Indebtedness or other obligations entered into after the Issue Date if
(A) such agreement contains encumbrances and restrictions that are not materially more restrictive with respect to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries than those in effect on the Issue Date with respect to that Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to
agreements in effect on the Issue Date or (B) any such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness is not expected, as determined by the Issuer in good faith, to result in a failure by the Issuer to be able to make scheduled
payments of cash interest and principal on the Securities when due;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) customary provisions in partnership agreements, limited liability company organizational governance documents,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Sale; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)(ii)</u> only, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the amount (without duplication) of any Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness or intercompany
Indebtedness) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary that is expressly assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a written novation agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability therefor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount of any securities, notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days
after such Asset Sale converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Fair Market Value of (1) any assets (other than securities) received by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to be used by it in a Permitted Business, (2) Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
acquisition of such Person by the Issuer or (3) a combination of (1) and (2); and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (d) that is at that time
outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)</u>, the 75% limitation referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)(ii)</u> shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) repay, redeem or otherwise retire (A) obligations under the Credit Agreement, (B) Indebtedness (other
than Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor and/or (C) Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien (in each case other than any
Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) and, if the obligations repaid are in respect of revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently
reduce commitments with respect thereto;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) repay, redeem or otherwise retire obligations under other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary
(in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); *provided* that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce obligations
under the Securities as provided under <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u>, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures
set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(g)</u> for a Net Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Securities at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Securities
that would otherwise be prepaid; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) make any capital expenditure or otherwise invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in
the purchase of assets (other than securities and excluding working capital or current assets for the avoidance of doubt) to be used by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity
Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of Net Available Proceeds are not invested or reinvested as contemplated by clause (iii) above within 365 days of receipt thereof but the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has, within 365 days of receipt of such Net Available Proceeds, entered into a binding contractual commitment upon customary conditions (including a purchase agreement or purchase order) to make such investments, then the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have invested such Net Available Proceeds in accordance with clause (iii) above; *provided* that, in the event and to the extent such investment shall not be completed in whole or in part in accordance with such binding contractual commitment within 180 days after entering into such binding contractual commitment, such binding contractual commitment shall have been terminated in whole or in part, such investment shall be abandoned in whole or in part, or such Net Available Proceeds are not otherwise applied to fund such investment in whole or in part, then the Net Available Proceeds (or balance of Net Available Proceeds related to the non-completed portion of a binding contractual commitment in the event of a partial completion, termination, abandonment or application) shall be applied as described in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(f)</u>. The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(d)</u> will constitute "*Excess Proceeds*."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Pending the final application of any Net Available Proceeds pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary holding such Net Available Proceeds may apply such Net Available Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) (i) On the 366th day after an Asset Sale (or, at the Issuer's option, an earlier date or any later date
contemplated by paragraph (d) above), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds C$75 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase or redeem (a "*Net Proceeds Offer*") from all
Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase or redeem such
Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase or redeem the maximum principal amount of Securities, and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Net Proceeds Offer applies that may be purchased or redeemed out of
the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture
or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of US$2,000 or integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make an Net Proceeds Offer as described in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(g)(i)</u>, the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such
Holders to make an informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business
Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

(g) (i) The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business

Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Period*"). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the "*Net Proceeds Purchase Date*"), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Amount*") or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment
date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Securities pursuant to the Net
Proceeds Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a
pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer,
or if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Securities so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum denominations of US$2,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000
in excess thereof. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that such Securities or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this covenant and, in addition, the
Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after
termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price
of the Securities or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Security, and the U.S.
Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers' Certificate from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Security to such Holder, in a

------

principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Security surrendered; *provided* that each such new Security will be in a minimum denomination in principal amount of US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Security not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> and/or <u>Article V</u> and not by the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>:<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an
election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the U.S. Exchange Act and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any Applicable Laws and regulations conflict with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>, the Issuer shall comply with such Applicable Laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> by virtue of such compliance.

Section 4.8 *Transactions with Affiliates*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (an "*Affiliate Transaction*") involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of C$15.0 million, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm's length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustees, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in
excess of C$50 million, an Officers' Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustees, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in
excess of C$75 million, a Secretary's Certificate which sets forth and authenticates a resolution that has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The restrictions in <u>Section</u> <u>4.8(a)</u> shall not apply to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) transactions exclusively between or among (A) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or
(B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) director, trustee, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including pursuant
to any employment agreement or any retirement, health, stock option or other benefit plan), payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees of the Issuer and indemnification arrangements, in each case, as determined in good faith by the
Issuer's Board of Directors or senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Permitted Investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>4.4</u>; <u> </u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a
whole, is not, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer in any material respect than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an
Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) (A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustees a
letter from a Canadian or U.S. nationally recognized accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of
clause (i) of the preceding paragraph.

Section 4.9 *Additional Subsidiary Guarantees*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any of Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor incurs or guarantees any Triggering Indebtedness and the aggregate amount of all such Triggering Indebtedness of all Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors would exceed C$10 million, then the Issuer shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustees within 30 days a supplemental indenture
in substantially the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit D</u>, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) that such Guarantee has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary.

Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer may also elect to cause any other Restricted Subsidiary to issue a Guarantee and become a Guarantor.

Section 4.10 *Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.20(b)</u>, designate any Subsidiary (including any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a "*Designation*"), *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation
(unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer would be permitted to make, at the time of such Designation, (A) a Permitted Investment or
(B) an Investment pursuant to clause (b) below, in either case, in an amount (the "*Designation Amount*") equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on the date such Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any
agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the Restricted
Subsidiary than those that would be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Subsidiary has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any
Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless such guarantee is released concurrent with such Designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For purposes of any Designation, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of "Investment." Such Designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a "*Redesignation*") only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Redesignation;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) all Liens, Indebtedness and Investments of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such
Redesignation would, if incurred or made at such time, have been permitted to be incurred or made for all purposes of this Indenture.

Section 4.11 *Further Instruments and Acts*

Upon request by the Trustees, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.

Section 4.12 *Business Activities*

The Issuer will engage, and will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to engage, only in businesses that, when considered together as a single enterprise, are primarily the Permitted Business.

Section 4.13 *Offer to Purchase Securities upon Change of Control*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.13(h)</u>, upon the occurrence of any Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Securities as described under <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u>, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer purchase all or any portion (in minimum denominations equal to US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder's Securities for a cash price (the "*Change of Control Purchase Price*") equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No later than 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustees, a notice:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) offering to purchase, pursuant to the offer described in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13(b)</u> (the
" *Change of Control Offer* "), on a date specified in such notice, which shall be a Business Day not earlier than 30 days, nor, unless such Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event,
later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the "*Change of Control Payment Date* "), and for the Change of Control Purchase Price, all Securities properly tendered by such Holder pursuant to such Change of Control
Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) describing the procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that Holders must
follow to accept the Change of Control Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) On the Business Day immediately preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all Securities or portions of Securities properly tendered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) accept for payment all Securities or portions of Securities (in minimum denominations equal to US$2,000 or
integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the U.S. Trustee the Securities accepted together with an Officers'
Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of Securities being purchased by the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Purchase Price for such Securities, with such payment to be made through the facilities of the Depositary for all Global Securities, and the U.S. Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities so tendered, if any; *provided* that each such new Security will be in a minimum denomination in principal amount of US$2,000 or integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) A Change of Control Offer will be required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or for such longer period as is required by law. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event and a Holder will not have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase any Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer if (i) a third party makes an offer to purchase the Securities in the manner, at the times and otherwise in substantial compliance with the requirements set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, or (ii) a Redemption Notice has been given pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u> unless and until there is a Default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Issuer will comply with Applicable Laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Applicable Laws and regulations conflict with the requirements of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>, the Issuer shall comply with such Applicable Laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> by virtue of such compliance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The provisions in this Indenture relating to the Issuer's obligation to make a Change of Control Offer may be waived, modified or terminated with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities accept a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer purchases all of the Securities held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 15 days' nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer, to redeem all of the Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Purchase Price, accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

Section 4.14 *Maintenance of Office or Agency*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency in the continental United States where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer and Guarantors in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustees of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.

Issuer shall be considered to be the Successor in the event of a statutory amalgamation governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof of the Issuer with any other Restricted Subsidiary);

For purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(a)</u>, any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Issuer immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to have been incurred in connection with such transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except in circumstances providing for the release of a Guarantor described under <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u>, no Guarantor will, and the Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, amalgamate, consolidate or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person (whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of its assets to any Person (other than the Issuer or another Guarantor) unless either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) except in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and any Guarantor, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, and such agreements and/or supplemental indenture (if any), comply with this Indenture; or

Section 6.2 *Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, Annulment and Waiver*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> with respect to the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the U.S. Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the U.S. Trustee, may declare (an "*acceleration declaration*") all amounts owing under

------

the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration, the aggregate principal (and premium, if any) of and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Securities shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> occurs with respect to the Issuer, then the principal of (and premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Securities will thereupon become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other action on the part of the Trustees or any Holder to the extent permitted by applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the U.S. Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the
Issuer, the Holders and the U.S. Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) and the Issuer has paid all sums owing to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>7.6</u> hereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the U.S. Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Securities
(or any of them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any Event of Default if, in the U.S. Trustee's opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor,
and in such event to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences;

*provided* that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>6.2(a)</u>, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of Default specified in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(e)</u> shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the U.S. Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Trustees may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Securities.

Section 6.3 *Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer covenants that if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due
and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any on) any Security at the Stated Maturity
thereof and such default continues for a period of three Business Days,

the Issuer will, upon demand of the U.S. Trustee, pay to the U.S. Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the U.S. Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor (including the Guarantors, if any) upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the U.S. Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 6.4 *Trustee May File Proofs of Claim*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In case of any pending receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer and its debts or any other obligor upon the Securities (including the Guarantors, if any), and their debts or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors, the U.S. Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the U.S. Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal (and premium, if any) or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the U.S. Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same,

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the U.S. Trustee and, in the event that the U.S. Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the U.S. Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the U.S. Trustee hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the U.S. Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the U.S. Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.5 *Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities*

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the U.S. Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the U.S. Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Section 6.6 *Application of Monies by Trustee*

Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, any money collected by the U.S. Trustee pursuant to this <u>Article VI</u> shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the U.S. Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) first, in payment or in reimbursement to the U.S. Trustee of its reasonable compensation, costs, charges, expenses, borrowings, advances, indemnity amounts or other monies furnished or provided by or at the instance of the U.S. Trustee in or about the execution of its trusts under, or otherwise in relation to, this Indenture, with interest thereon as herein provided;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) second, but subject as hereinafter in this <u>Section</u> <u>6.6</u> provided, in payment, ratably and proportionately to the Holders, of the principal of and premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on the Securities which shall then be outstanding in the priority of principal first and then premium and then accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) third, in payment of the surplus, if any, of such monies to the Issuer or its assigns and/or the Guarantors, as the case may be;

*provided, however,* that no payment shall be made pursuant to clause (ii) in respect of the principal, premium or interest on any Securities held, directly or indirectly, by or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than any Securities pledged for value and in good faith to a Person other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer but only to the extent of such Person's interest therein), except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on all Securities which are not so held.

Section 6.7 *No Suits by Holders*

Except to enforce payment of the principal of, and premium (if any) or interest on any Security (after giving effect to any applicable grace period specified therefor in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(a)</u>), no Holder shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a liquidator, trustee or receiver or for a receiving order under any Bankruptcy Laws or to have the Issuer or any Guarantor wound up or to file or prove a claim in any liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Holder gives the U.S. Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustees to pursue the remedy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustees indemnity satisfactory to the Trustees against any costs, liability or expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Trustees do not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) during such 60 day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities do not give the Trustees a direction that is inconsistent with the request;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders.

------

Section 6.8 *Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest*

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Holder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities held by such Holder on the applicable Maturity date and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.9 *Restoration of Rights and Remedies*

If the U.S. Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the U.S. Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantors (if any), the U.S. Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the U.S. Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.10 *Rights and Remedies Cumulative*

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the U.S. Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11 *Delay or Omission Not Waiver*

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

Section 6.12 *Direction by Holders*

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the U.S. Trustee. However, subject to Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u>, the U.S. Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the U.S. Trustee in personal liability, or that the U.S. Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Securities not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Securities.

------

Section 6.13 *Notice of Event of Default*

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the U.S. Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Canadian Trustee and the Holders, *provided* that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the U.S. Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, the U.S. Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the U.S. Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.

Section 6.14 *Undertaking for Costs*

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustees for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as a Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant.

Section 6.15 *Judgment Against the Issuer*

The Issuer covenants and agrees with the U.S. Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Holders, judgment may be rendered against it in favor of the Holders or in favor of the U.S. Trustee, as trustee for the Holders, for any amount which may remain due in respect of the Securities and premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

**ARTICLE VII**

Section 7.1 *Duties of U.S. Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee, once it becomes aware of such Event of Default, shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the U.S. Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the U.S. Trustee; and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the U.S. Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the U.S. Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the U.S. Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of the U.S. Trustee unless it is proved that the U.S. Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.12 hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the U.S. Trustee is subject to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the U.S. Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate security or indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The permissive authorizations, entitlements, powers and rights (including the right to request that the Issuer take an action or deliver a document and the exercise of remedies following an Event of Default) granted to the U.S. Trustee herein shall not be construed as duties.

Section 7.2 *Rights of Trustees.*

Section 7.3 *Individual Rights of U.S. Trustee*

The U.S. Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not U.S. Trustee. However, in the event that the U.S. Trustee acquires any conflicting interest after a Default has occurred and is continuing, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as U.S. Trustee or resign. The U.S. Trustee is also subject to <u>Sections 7.10</u> and <u>7.11</u> hereof.

Under no circumstances shall the U.S. Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Securities.

Section 7.5 *Notice of Defaults*

Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default relating to payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security (including payments pursuant to the redemption or required repurchase provisions of such Security), the U.S. Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its board of directors, the executive committee of its board of directors or a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

Section 7.6 *Compensation and Indemnity*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall pay to each of the Trustees from time to time, and the Trustees shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for its services hereunder and under the Securities as the Issuer and the Trustees shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustees' compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse each of the Trustees, as applicable, upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel retained by the Trustees in connection with the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel or otherwise, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustees' respective agents and counsel. Each of the Issuer

------

and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each of the Trustees (in its individual and trustee capacities) and its respective officers, directors and agents from and against any and all loss, liability, claims, action, suit, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and the trusts thereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Securities, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>) and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or otherwise). Each Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity of which it has received written notice. Failure by either of the Trustees, as applicable, to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim, and the Trustees may each have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer is not required to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability claim, again, suit, cost or expense incurred by the either of the Trustees through the Trustees' respective own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To secure the Issuer's payment obligations in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>, the Trustees shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustees other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of, premium (if any) and interest on particular Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer's obligations pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of any Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustees under applicable law, when the U.S. Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> hereof with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.7 *Replacement of Trustees*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities may remove a Trustee by so notifying such Trustee and the Issuer and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer may remove a Trustee if: (i) such Trustee fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof; (ii) such Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; (iii) a custodian or other public officer takes charge of such Trustee or its property; or (iv) such Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If a Trustee resigns or is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of such Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of such retiring Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> hereof.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If either of the Trustees fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof after written notice thereto, the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of such Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Notwithstanding the replacement of a Trustee pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u>, the Issuer's obligations under <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.8 *Successor Trustees by Merger*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If either the U.S. Trustee or Canadian Trustee or any Agent consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor U.S. Trustee or Canadian Trustee or Agent, as applicable.

Section 7.9 *Eligibility; Disqualification*

There shall at all times be at least one Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus (together with its Affiliates) of at least US$50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. Each Trustee hereunder shall comply with TIA Section 3.10(b) to the extent required; *provided*, *however*, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 3.10(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 3.10(b)(1) are met.

------

Section 7.10 *No Liability for Co-Trustee*

No Trustee appointed hereunder shall be personally liable or responsible by reason of any act or omission of any other Trustee hereunder.

Section 7.11 *Canadian Trustee*

The Issuer has appointed the Canadian Trustee under this Indenture in order to comply with Canadian Securities Laws and the Business Corporations Act (Alberta).

**ARTICLE VIII** 

**DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE** 

Section 8.1 *Satisfaction and Discharge*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) all the Securities that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Securities which have been replaced or paid and Securities for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from this trust) have been delivered to the U.S. Trustee for cancellation, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.2</u> of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.3</u>, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.5</u>, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations, other than the provisions contemplated to survive as set forth below, with respect to all outstanding Securities on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "*Legal Defeasance*"). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities (including the Guarantees thereof), which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of <u>Sections 8.6</u> and <u>8.8</u> and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Securities, this Indenture and the Guarantees (and the U.S. Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any,

For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities, the Issuer and the

------

Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any Defeased Covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, such Securities and the obligations of the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.2</u> of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.4</u>, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.5</u>, the events specified in <u>Sections 6.1(c)</u>, <u>6.1(d)</u>, <u>6.1(e)</u>, <u>6.1(f)</u>, <u>6.1(g)</u>, <u>6.1(h)</u> and <u>6.1(i)</u> shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the U.S. Trustee, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash
in U.S. Dollars, non-callable Government Securities or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of
independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustees, to pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the outstanding Securities on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as
the case may be,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee confirming that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by the Internal Revenue Service, a ruling, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law,

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon this Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred,

(iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel in
the United States reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Covenant Defeasance and will be
subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Covenant Defeasance had not occurred,

------

(iv) in the case of Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an
Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee and qualified to practice in Canada or a ruling from Canada Revenue Agency to the effect that Holders of the outstanding Securities who are not resident in Canada should not recognize
income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, and should be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax on
the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, had not occurred,

(v) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either (A) on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings) or (B) insofar as Defaults from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on
the 91st day after the date of deposit,

(vi) the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound,

(vii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, after the expiration of 3
months from the date of deposit and assuming that no intervening bankruptcy event has taken place in respect of the Issuer or any Guarantor between the date of deposit and the expiration of such 3 month period and assuming that no Holder was a non-arm's length party with respect to the Issuer or any Guarantor under applicable bankruptcy law, the deposit does not constitute a preferential payment that will be recoverable by a trustee in bankruptcy in
Canada pursuant to the provisions of the *Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act,* R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3, as amended,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not

Section 8.7 *Repayment to the Issuer*

Notwithstanding anything in this <u>Article VIII</u> to the contrary, the U.S. Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any funds or Government Securities held by it as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u> which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer expressed in a written certification thereof, delivered to the U.S. Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under <u>Section</u> <u>8.5(a)(i)</u>), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to fully satisfy the obligations of the Issuer under <u>Section</u> <u>8.1(b)(i)</u> or to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.8 *Continuance of Rights, Duties and Obligations*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Where trust funds or trust property have been deposited pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u>, the Holders and the Issuer shall continue to have and be subject to their respective rights, duties and obligations under <u>Article II</u> and <u>Article III</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that, after the deposit of trust funds or trust property pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u>, the Issuer is required to make an offer to purchase any outstanding Securities pursuant to the terms hereof, the Issuer shall be entitled to use any trust funds or trust property deposited with the U.S. Trustee pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u> for the purpose of paying to any Holders of such Securities who have accepted any such offer of the total offer price payable in respect of an offer relating to any such Securities.

Section 10.1 *Subsidiary Guarantees*

Each Guarantor which is a party hereto or becomes a party hereto by executing and delivering a supplement to this Indenture pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.9</u> hereof, jointly and severally, unconditionally Guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustees and their respective successors and assigns the full and punctual payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the Securities when due, whether at Stated Maturity, or upon redemption, required repurchase pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> hereof, acceleration or otherwise, and all other monetary

------

obligations owing by the Issuer under this Indenture (including obligations owing to the Trustees) and the Securities (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the "*Indenture Obligations*"). The Guarantors further agree that the Indenture Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from the Guarantors, and that the Guarantors will remain bound under this <u>Article X</u> notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Indenture Obligation.

The Guarantors waive presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Indenture Obligations and also waive notice of protest for nonpayment. The Guarantors waive notice of any Default under the Securities or the Indenture Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by: (i) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any Indenture Obligation; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment, modification or supplement of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture (other than this <u>Article X</u>), the Securities or any other agreement; (iv) the release of security, if any, held by any Holder or either of the Trustees for the Indenture Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Indenture Obligations; (vi) any change in the ownership of the Issuer; or (vii) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of law or equity, except for payment of the Securities in full.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein constitute a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waive any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or either of the Trustees to security, if any, held for payment of the Indenture Obligations.

The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (except to the extent provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.2</u> hereof), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Indenture Obligations or otherwise.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Indenture Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or either of the Trustees upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or either of the Trustees has at law or in equity against the Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any Indenture Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, required repurchase, acceleration or otherwise, the Guarantors hereby promise to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustees, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustees an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Indenture Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Indenture Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary Indenture Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders and the Trustees.

------

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustees, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Indenture Obligations may be accelerated as provided in <u>Article VI</u> for the purposes of the Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Indenture Obligations, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Indenture Obligations as provided in <u>Article VI</u>, such Indenture Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, also agree to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustees or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

Section 10.2 *Limitation on Liability*

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities, each Holder, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustees, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this <u>Article X</u>, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 10.3 *Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee*

The execution by each Guarantor of this Indenture (or a Supplemental Indenture) evidences the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Security. The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor.

The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

In the event that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date, the Issuer will comply with the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.9</u> hereof.

Section 10.4 *Successors and Assigns*

Except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof, this <u>Article X</u> shall be binding upon the Guarantors and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustees and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights in accordance with the terms of this Indenture by any Holder or the Trustees, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees.

------

Section 10.5 *No Waiver*

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustees or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this <u>Article X</u> shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustees and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this <u>Article X</u> at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Section 10.6 *Right of Contribution*

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor's right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this <u>Article X</u>. The provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.6</u> shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Trustees and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustees and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 10.7 *No Subrogation*

Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Guarantors hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to exercise any rights of subrogation it may have to any of the rights of either of the Trustees or any Holder against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by either of the Trustees or any Holder for the payment of the Indenture Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustees and the Holders by the Issuer on account of the Indenture Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Indenture Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustees and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustees in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustees, if required), to be applied against the Indenture Obligations.

Section 10.8 *Modification*

No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this <u>Article X</u>, nor the consent to any departure by the Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with <u>Article IX</u> hereof. No notice to or demand on the Guarantors in any case shall entitle the Guarantors to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

------

Section 10.9 *Release of Guarantee*

A Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under its Guarantee and its obligations under this Indenture after the occurrence of any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) (i) any sale, exchange or transfer (by amalgamation, merger, consolidation or otherwise) of the Equity Interests of such Guarantor after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, which sale, exchange or transfer does not violate the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the proper designation of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if that Guarantor ceases to guarantee or to be liable for any Triggering Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness
owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary), except if the release or discharge thereof results from a demand for payment under such guarantee; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as provided under <u>Article VIII</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Issuer delivering to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the release of such Guarantor's Guarantee have been complied with.

------

Section 11.7 *Legal Holidays*

If a record date is a Legal Holiday, the record date shall not be affected.

Section 11.8 *Governing Law*

THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 11.9 *Waiver of Jury Trial*

THE PARTIES HERETO (AND EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A SECURITY) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO. EACH PARTY (AND EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A SECURITY) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO ARE ENTERING INTO THIS INDENTURE IN RELIANCE UPON SUCH WAIVER.

Section 11.10 *Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Prescription*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each party to this Indenture or the Securities hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of (i) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or of any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) and (ii) the courts of its own corporate domicile, in each case with all applicable courts of appeal therefrom, with respect to actions brought against it as a defendant, for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the Securities or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; *provided* that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the ability of any party to this Indenture or the Securities to bring suit in any other permissible jurisdiction. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court, any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and any objection based on place of residence or domicile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors irrevocably appoints Corporation Service Company, with address at 1180 Avenue of the Americas, Suite 210, New York, New York 10036, United States, as its authorized agent on which any and all legal process may be served in any such action, suit or proceeding brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or in any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) in connection with this Indenture or the Securities. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that service of process in respect of it upon such agent, together with written notice of such service sent to it in the manner provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, shall be deemed to be effective service of process upon it in any such action, suit or proceeding. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that the failure of such agent to give notice to it of any such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any action, suit or proceeding based thereon. If for any reason such agent shall cease to be available to act as such (including by reason of the failure of such agent to maintain an office in New

------

York City), the Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees promptly to designate a new agent in New York City, on the terms and for the purposes of this Section. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the U.S. Trustee to serve any such legal process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law or to obtain jurisdiction over the Issuer or bring actions, suits or proceedings against it in such other jurisdictions, and in such manner, as may be permitted by Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors will waive any immunity (including sovereign immunity), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any such suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Claims against the Issuer or any Guarantor for the payment of principal or interest and Additional Amounts in respect of the Securities or the Guarantee, as the case may be, will be prescribed unless made within six years of the due date for payment of such principal or interest and Additional Amounts.

Section 11.11 *Force Majeure*

In no event shall the Trustees be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustees shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

Section 11.12 *No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Shareholders*

No director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Issuer, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Issuer is a trustee or carrier shall have any liability for any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Securities or this Indenture or any Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities and the Guarantees. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under applicable securities laws.

Section 11.13 *Immunity*

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby waives any claim it may have to immunity (whether sovereign or otherwise), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

------

Section 11.14 *Conversion of Currency*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due under this Indenture to the Holder from another currency to U.S. Dollars, the Issuer and each Guarantor agree, and each Holder by holding a Security will be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase U.S. Dollars with such other currency in the State of New York on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "*judgment currency*") other than U.S. Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or a Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in such judgment currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. Dollars with the judgment currency. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee in the judgment currency (as determined in the manner set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.14(a)</u>), as the case may be, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Holder and the Trustee, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, will pay the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor such excess; *provided* that such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a Default under the Securities or this Indenture has occurred and is continuing or if the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have failed to pay any Holder any amounts then due and payable under such Security or this Indenture, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder or such Trustee to such obligations.

Section 11.15 *Successors*

All agreements of the Issuer and (except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof) the Guarantors in this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustees in this Indenture shall bind their respective successors.

Section 11.16 *Multiple Originals; Counterparts*

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. This Indenture may be executed in multiple counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

Section 11.17 *Severability*

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

------

Section 11.18 *Table of Contents; Headings*

The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 11.19 *No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements*

This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

Section 11.20 *Acts of Holders*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and may be given or obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, outstanding Securities; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the U.S. Trustee, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Canadian Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "*Act*" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustees and the Issuer if made in the manner provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.20</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such witness, notary or officer the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the U.S. Trustee deems sufficient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.18</u>, the principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Holder, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the register of the Securities maintained by the Registrar as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders of the Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Issuer may, at their option, by or pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Issuer shall have no obligation to do so. Such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith or the date of the most recent list of Holders forwarded to the U.S. Trustee prior to

------

such solicitation pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.6</u> and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the then outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the then outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; *provided* that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent (to an amendment hereof or otherwise), waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration or transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustees or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. After any amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder unless it makes a change described in clauses (a) through (j) of <u>Section</u> <u>9.2</u>, in which case the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so itself with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

For purposes of this Indenture, any action by the Holders which may be taken in writing may be taken by electronic means or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee.

Section 11.21 *USA PATRIOT Act*

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the U.S. Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The Issuer agrees that it will provide the U.S. Trustee with information about the Issuer as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably request in order for the U.S. Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.

------

Section 11.22 *Canadian Trustee Not Bound to Act*

The Canadian Trustee shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever the Canadian Trustee, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in noncompliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Canadian Trustee, in its sole judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Indenture has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on ten (10) days written notice to the other parties to this Indenture, provided (i) that the Canadian Trustee's written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (ii) that if such circumstances are rectified to the Canadian Trustee's satisfaction within such ten (10) day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.

taxes had not been withheld or deducted;

the Issuer or such Guarantor of those taxes; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) at least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable (or, if the obligation to pay
any Additional Amounts does not arise more than 20 days prior to the applicable payment date, reasonably promptly after such obligation arises), deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Additional
Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustees may request to enable the U.S. Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Canadian taxes that were imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a Holder or
beneficial owner with which the Issuer, such Guarantor or any transferee to whom a Security is assigned or otherwise transferred, does not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time of making such
payment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any Canadian taxes that were imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a

shareholder of the Issuer or such Guarantor, both for the purposes of subsection 18(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any taxes imposed as a result of the Holder or the beneficial owner being a resident, domicile or national of,
or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some present or former actual or deemed connection with, the Relevant Taxing Authority otherwise than by the mere acquisition, holding,
disposition or enforcement of the Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the
Securities to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and only if such Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to
provide such form or document, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to
enable the Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Securities or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be
delivered within 30 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any estate, inheritance, gift, wealth or net worth, sales, goods and services, harmonized sales, transfer,
capital gains, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding from
payments under or with respect to the Securities (other than taxes payable pursuant to Regulation 803 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or any similar successor provision);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) any tax to the extent such tax was imposed as a result of the beneficiary of the payment not presenting the
Security for payment within 30 days after the date on which such payment on such Security became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to
the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settler with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner
who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) that is imposed under FATCA; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any combination of (i) through (ix).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, purchase price, redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Security, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) if the Holder of such Definitive Securities proposes to exchange such Securities for a beneficial interest in the Unrestricted Global Security, a certificate from such Holder in the form of <u>Exhibit C</u> hereto, including the certifications in item (1)(c) thereof; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if the Holder of such Definitive Securities proposes to transfer such Securities to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Unrestricted Global Security, a certificate from such Holder in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto, including the certifications in item (4) thereof;

and, in each such case set forth in this paragraph (4), if the Registrar so requests or if the Applicable Procedures so require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the U.S. Securities Act and state "blue sky" laws and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the U.S. Securities Act.

------

Upon satisfaction of the conditions of any of the subparagraphs in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(d)(2)</u>, the U.S. Trustee shall cancel the Definitive Securities and the Registrar shall increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there are no Global Securities outstanding prior to any such transfer, Definitive Securities may be transferred for beneficial interests in a Global Security only if the Issuer so agrees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) *Unrestricted Definitive Securities to Beneficial Interests in Unrestricted Global Securities*. A Holder of an Unrestricted Definitive Security may exchange such Security for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security or transfer such Definitive Security to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security at any time. Upon receipt of a request for such an exchange or transfer, the U.S. Trustee shall cancel the applicable Unrestricted Definitive Security and the Registrar shall increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Unrestricted Global Securities.

If any such exchange or transfer from a Definitive Security to a beneficial interest is effected pursuant to subparagraph (2)(B), (2)(D) or (3) above at a time when an Unrestricted Global Security has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof, the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of Definitive Securities so transferred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Securities for Definitive Securities*. Upon request by a Holder of Definitive Securities and such Holder's compliance with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(e)</u>, the Registrar shall register the transfer or exchange of Definitive Securities. Prior to such registration of transfer or exchange, the requesting Holder shall present or surrender to the Registrar the Definitive Securities duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by such Holder or by its attorney, duly authorized in writing. In addition, the requesting Holder shall provide any additional certifications, documents and information, as applicable, required pursuant to the following provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(e)</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if the transfer will be made pursuant to Rule 904, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) if the transfer will be made pursuant to any other exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto, including the certifications required by item (3) thereof.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) *Restricted Definitive Securities to Unrestricted Definitive Securities*. Any Restricted Definitive Security may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for an Unrestricted Definitive Security or transferred to a Person or Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Security if the Registrar receives 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) if the Holder of such Restricted Definitive Securities proposes to exchange such Securities for an Unrestricted Definitive Security, a certificate from such Holder in the form of <u>Exhibit C</u> hereto, including the certifications in item (1)(d) thereof; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if the Holder of such Restricted Definitive Security proposes to transfer such Securities to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Security, a certificate from such Holder in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto, including the certifications in item (4) thereof;

and, in each such case set forth in this paragraph (4), if the Registrar so requests, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the U.S. Securities Act and state "blue sky" laws and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the U.S. Securities Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) *Unrestricted Definitive Securities to Unrestricted Definitive Securities*. A Holder of Unrestricted Definitive Securities may transfer such Securities to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Security. Upon receipt of a request to register such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the Unrestricted Definitive Security pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Legends*. The following legends shall appear on the face of all Global Securities and Definitive Securities issued under this Indenture unless specifically stated otherwise in the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

(1) *Private Placement Legend*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) Except as permitted by subparagraph (B) below or as otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the Holder, each Global Security and each Definitive Security (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall bear a legend, until the Resale Restriction Termination Date, in substantially the following form:

"THE SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) EVIDENCED HEREBY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SECTION 5 OF THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE SELLER MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER. THE HOLDER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ISSUER THAT (A) SUCH SECURITY MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (1)(a) TO A PERSON WHO IS REASONABLY BELIEVED TO BE A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A

------

UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (b) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (c) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO A NON-U.S. PERSON IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 904 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (d) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (AND BASED UPON AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IF THE ISSUER SO REQUESTS), (2) TO THE ISSUER OR (3) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION, AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER FROM IT OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN CLAUSE (A) ABOVE. NO REPRESENTATION CAN BE MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 FOR RESALE OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Global Security or Definitive Security issued pursuant to subparagraph (b)(4), (c)(2), (c)(3), (d)(2), (d)(3), (e)(2) or (e)(3) of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall not bear the Private Placement Legend. The Issuer, acting in its discretion, may remove the Private Placement Legend from any Restricted Security at any time on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Restricted Security. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Issuer may effect such removal by issuing and delivering, in exchange for such Restricted Security, an Unrestricted Security, registered to the same Holder and in an equal principal amount, and, notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u>,<u> </u>upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer given at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed date of exchange specified therein (which shall be no earlier than the Resale Restriction Termination Date), the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Unrestricted Security as directed in such order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2) Global Security Legend*. Each Global Security shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

"THIS GLOBAL SECURITY IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS SECURITY) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE REGISTRAR MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO <u>SECTION 2.7</u> OF THE INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO <u>SECTION 2.7(a)</u> OF THE INDENTURE AND (III) THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE U.S. TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO <u>SECTION 2.11</u> OF THE INDENTURE.

UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR SECURITIES IN DEFINITIVE FORM, THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE

------

DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY. UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK) ("DTC") TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(3)* Canadian Legend.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) Except as permitted by subparagraph (B) below or as otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the Holder, each Global Security and each Definitive Security (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) The Issuer, acting in its discretion, may (i) issue any Security under this Indenture (whether upon initial issuance or in exchange for any previously issued Security) without requiring such Security to bear the Canadian Legend or (ii) remove the Canadian Legend from any outstanding Security, in each case, at any time (including at any time when the Canadian Legend is not, or is no longer, required under Canadian Securities Laws as a condition to the availability of any resale exemption).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(g) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Securities*. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Security have been exchanged for Definitive Securities or a particular Global Security has been redeemed, repurchased or cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Security shall be returned to or retained and cancelled by the U.S. Trustee in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security or for Definitive Securities, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the U.S. Trustee or by the Securities Custodian at the direction of the U.S. Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security, such other Global Security shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the U.S. Trustee or by the Securities Custodian at the direction of the U.S. Trustee to reflect such increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(h) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.* 

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof or at the Registrar's request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security or to a Holder of a Definitive Security for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge or other fee required by law and payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to <u>Sections 2.10</u>, <u>3.2</u>, <u>3.6</u>, <u>4.7</u> and <u>4.13</u> hereof).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) All Global Securities and Definitive Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Securities or Definitive Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Securities or Definitive Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) None of the Issuer, the Trustees or the Registrar shall be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities during a period of 15 days before the day of any selection of Securities for redemption under <u>Section</u> <u>3.2</u> hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Security between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Issuer, each Guarantor, the Trustees, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, interest and premium (if any) on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Trustees, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) The U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof and in accordance with the other provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) The Trustees shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of optional redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Securities. The Trustees shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither the Trustees nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

------

Section 2.8 *Replacement Securities*

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar, or the Issuer and the Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Issuer will issue and the U.S. Trustee, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer conforming to <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof, will authenticate a replacement Security if the Registrar's and the Issuer's reasonable requirements are met. If required by the Registrar or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Registrar, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the U.S. Trustee, the Registrar, any other Agent and any Authenticating Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced.

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder, *provided* it is held by a protected purchaser within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u>, rather than authenticating and delivering a replacement Security for a mutilated, destroyed, loss or stolen Security which has been redeemed or the principal of which has matured, the Issuer or the Paying Agent may make payment of the amount due on such security to the Holder upon receipt of the above-described indemnity bond.

Section 2.9 *Outstanding Securities*

The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the U.S. Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the U.S. Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.9</u> as not outstanding. Except as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.6</u> hereof, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the U.S. Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.10 *Temporary Securities*

Until Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Holders of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a holder of Definitive Securities.

------

Section 2.11 *Cancellation*

The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the U.S. Trustee or any Registrar for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the U.S. Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The U.S. Trustee or the Registrar (and no one else) shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation in accordance with its retention policy then in effect. The Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the U.S. Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation.

Section 2.12 *Defaulted Interest*

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest ("*Defaulted Interest*") on the Securities, the Issuer shall pay Defaulted Interest (as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u>) in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay the Defaulted Interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed (or upon the Issuer's failure to do so the U.S. Trustee shall fix pursuant to a written instruction of Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities) any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the U.S. Trustee which special record date shall not be less than 10 days prior to the payment date for such Defaulted Interest and the Issuer, or at the Issuer's request, the U.S. Trustee, shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of Defaulted Interest to be paid. The Issuer shall notify the Trustees in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the U.S. Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the U.S. Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.12</u>.

Section 2.13 *CUSIP Numbers*

The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP," "ISIN" or similar numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the U.S. Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; *provided*, *however*, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustees in writing of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

------

**ARTICLE III** 

**REDEMPTION** 

Section 3.1 *Notices to U.S. Trustee*

If the Issuer elects to redeem Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u> hereof, it shall notify the U.S. Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed.

The Issuer shall give each notice to the U.S. Trustee and the Registrar provided for in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.1</u> at least three (3) Business Days before the date of giving notice of the redemption pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.3</u>, unless the U.S. Trustee consents to a shorter period. If such redemption is to be effected pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(f)</u>, then such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers' Certificate to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions therein. If fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Issuer and set forth in the related notice given to the U.S. Trustee, which record date shall be not less than 10 days after the date of such notice.

Section 3.2 *Partial Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the Securities are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange on which such Securities are listed; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the Securities are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or based on a
method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustees in their sole discretion deem fair and appropriate (or, in the case of Global Securities, based on a method in accordance with the procedures of DTC) unless otherwise required
by applicable law or depository requirements,

*provided* that if less than all the Securities are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u>, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as described in clause (ii) unless that method is otherwise prohibited. Subject to the foregoing, Securities or portions of Securities the U.S. Trustee selects for redemption shall be in minimum amounts of US$2,000 or a multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If Securities are to be redeemed in part only, the Redemption Notice that relates to such Securities will state the portion of the principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed. In the event that one or more of such Securities becomes subject to redemption in part only, upon surrender of any such Securities for payment of the redemption price, together with interest accrued to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, the Issuer shall execute and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without charge to the Holder thereof or upon the Holder's order one or more new Securities for the unredeemed part of the principal amount of the Securities so surrendered or, with respect to Global Securities, the U.S. Trustee shall make notations on the Global Securities of the principal amount thereof so redeemed. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Security" or "Securities" as used in this <u>Article III</u> shall be deemed to mean or include any part of the principal amount of any Security which in accordance with the foregoing provisions has become subject to redemption.

------

Section 3.3 *Notice of Redemption*

Notice of redemption (the "*Redemption Notice*") of any Securities shall be given to the Holders of the Securities so to be redeemed not more than 60 days nor less than 10 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the "*Redemption Date*") in the manner provided in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>; *provided* that Redemption Notices in respect of optional redemptions of Securities may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the Redemption Notice is issued in connection with a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Every such Redemption Notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date, the redemption price and the places of payment and shall state that interest upon the principal amount of Securities called for redemption shall cease to be payable from and after the Redemption Date. Redemption Notices, including, without limitation, upon a Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event, may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. If a Redemption Notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such Redemption Notice shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date as stated in such Redemption Notice, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer may provide in such Redemption Notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer's obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

In addition, unless all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the Redemption Notice shall specify:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the CUSIP, ISIN or similar numbers, if any, printed on the Securities which are to be redeemed (as are registered in the name of such Holder);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if such Securities are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to identify the Securities so selected;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) in all cases, the principal amounts of such Securities or, if any such Security is to be redeemed in part only, the principal amount of such part.

Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, in the event that all Securities to be redeemed are Global Securities, publication of the Redemption Notice shall not be required.

Section 3.4 *Effect of Notice of Redemption*

Once notice of redemption is mailed to Holders, Securities (or portions thereof) called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of any condition permitted below. A notice of redemption may be subject to one or more conditions precedent specified in the notice of redemption, including completion of a Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date; *provided* that if the Redemption Date is after the taking of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the redeemed Securities are registered on such record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

Section 3.5 *Deposit of Redemption Price*

No later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities to be redeemed on that date. If the Issuer complies with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>3.5</u>, then on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time prior to October 1, 2024, the Issuer, at its option, may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Securities), at a redemption price equal to 104.500% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities to be redeemed, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings; *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (including Additional Securities) remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such redemption; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) each such redemption occurs not more than 180 days after the date of the closing of the related Qualified Equity Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time prior to October 1, 2024, the Issuer may redeem all or part of the Securities at a redemption price equal to the sum of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes obligated to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in the laws, treaties or regulations of any Relevant Taxing Authority, or a change in any official position regarding the application, interpretation or administration thereof (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction) or assessing practice with respect thereto, the enactment or adoption of which change is publicly announced on or after the date of this Indenture and such Additional Amounts cannot (as certified in an Officers' Certificate to the Trustees) be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, then the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the affected Securities, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 10 days' nor more than 60 days' notice (such notice to be provided not more than 90 days before the next date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts, if a payment on the Securities were due on such date), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date). Notice of the Issuer's intent to redeem the affected Securities shall not be effective until such time as it delivers to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts because of an amendment to or change in law, treaty or regulation or other position as described in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(e)</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In connection with any tender offer for the Securities (including in connection with any Change of Control Offer or Net Proceeds Offer), if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not validly withdraw such Securities in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party Person approved in writing by the Issuer making such tender offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party Person will have the right, upon not less than 10 days' nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following any such purchase date, to redeem (with respect to the Issuer) or purchase (with respect to a third party Person) all Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price paid to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the redemption date or purchase date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date falling on or prior to the redemption date or purchase date).

Section 3.7 *Mandatory Redemption*

The Issuer is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities; *provided*, *however*, that under certain circumstances the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase the Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>.<u> </u>

**ARTICLE IV** 

**COVENANTS** 

Section 4.1 *Payment of Principal, Premium, and Interest*

The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities that it shall promptly pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities, this Indenture. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be deemed due for all purposes under this Indenture whether such payments are due at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon required repurchase pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> or <u>4.13</u> hereof, upon declaration or otherwise. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date due if by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such date the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due.

The Issuer will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the rate then in effect on the Securities; it will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate as on overdue principal.

Section 4.2 *Reports and Financial Information*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will provide the Trustees, and the U.S. Trustee will deliver to all the Holders, the following information (collectively, the "*Financial Reports*"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) within 90 days of the end of each fiscal year, annual audited financial statements for such fiscal year
(along with customary comparative results) and (B) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, unaudited financial statements for the interim period as at, and for the period ending on, the end of
such fiscal quarter (along with comparative results for the corresponding interim period in the prior year), in each case, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" with
respect to the periods presented and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer's certified independent accountants; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) within 10 days after the occurrence of each event constituting a "material change" (as defined in
the Securities Act (Alberta)) that would have been required to be reported (pursuant to applicable rules and regulations in effect on the Issue Date) in a report under the Securities Act (Alberta) if the Issuer had been a "reporting
issuer" under the Securities Act (Alberta), a report containing substantially all of the information that would have been required to be contained (pursuant to the Securities Act (Alberta) and applicable rules and regulations thereunder) in
such report,

*provided*, *however*, that (x) Financial Reports shall be deemed to have been provided to the Trustees and the Holders once filed on the SEDAR website at <u>www.sedar.com</u> or filed with the SEC on the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system ("*EDGAR*") and (y) Financial Reports will not be required to include any reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with respect to financial information reported pursuant to GAAP.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries and such Unrestricted Subsidiaries hold more than 2.5% of Consolidated Tangible Assets, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u> will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto or in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries excluding such Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If and for so long as any Securities remain outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the U.S. Securities Act, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act (for so long as such information is required in order to permit resales of the Securities pursuant to Rule 144A).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Financial Reports are available on SEDAR, or on EDGAR, or on any successor system thereto, the Issuer will also maintain a website to which the beneficial holders of the Securities are given free access and on which, not later than the date by which the Financial Reports are required to be provided to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u>, such Financial Reports are made available. Making such Financial Reports so available shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u> that such Financial Reports be provided to the Trustees and delivered to the Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Unless the Issuer is a "reporting issuer" (or its equivalent) required to file information with one or more securities regulators in Canada, no later than five Business Days after the date the annual and quarterly Financial Reports have been furnished pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)(i)</u>, the Issuer shall also hold a live quarterly conference call with the opportunity for participants to ask questions of management. No fewer than three Business Days prior to the date such conference call is to be held, the Issuer shall issue a press release (which release shall be immediately filed on SEDAR or any successor system thereto or, if the applicable Canadian securities regulators do not permit such filing, immediately provided to the Trustees and the Holders) announcing such quarterly conference call, which press release shall contain the time and the date of such conference call and direct the recipients thereof to contact an individual at the Issuer (for whom contact information shall be provided in such notice) to obtain information on how to access such quarterly conference call.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Trustees will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing or posting of such Financial Reports has occurred; delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustees is for informational purposes only and the Trustees' receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer's compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture (as to which each Trustee is entitled to rely on officer's certificates).

Section 4.3 *Limitations in Incurrence of Indebtedness*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); provided that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur additional Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), in each case, if, after giving effect thereto on a *pro forma* basis, (i) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default will have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a consequence of incurring the Indebtedness or entering into the transactions relating to such incurrence.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u>, each of the following incurrences of Indebtedness shall be permitted ("*Permitted Indebtedness*"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Indebtedness of the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under any of the Credit Facilities in an
aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, including the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers' acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers' acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount
equal to the face amount thereof) not to exceed, as of any date of incurrence, the greater of (A) C$2,000 million and (B) 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow during the most recent four consecutive full fiscal quarters for
which financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP are available (determined at the time of incurrence and after giving effect to the *pro forma* adjustments set forth in the definition of "Consolidated
Interest Coverage Ratio"); *provided*, *however*, that the amount permitted to be incurred under Credit Facilities pursuant to clause (i)(B) above shall be increased to up to 4.0 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so
determined) in respect of Indebtedness incurred on the closing date of any Significant Acquisition (the "*Significant Acquisition Closing Date*") or within two Business Days of such Significant Acquisition Closing Date so long as
the portion of any such incurred Indebtedness which exceeds 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) is incurred to finance, directly or indirectly, such Significant Acquisition (in which case such excess portion of
the Indebtedness is referred to as an "*Incremental Acquisition Financing* "); and *provided, further*, that any Incremental Acquisition Financing that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs in reliance on the
foregoing proviso shall be permanently repaid by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries under such Credit Facilities within 180 days after the Significant Acquisition Closing Date unless (and solely to the extent) that at the expiration of such
180 day period the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be permitted to incur the portion of the Incremental Acquisition Financing that remains outstanding at such time pursuant to clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Indebtedness represented by the Securities issued on the Issue Date and the Guarantees;

giving effect to the use of proceeds of the Securities, including without limitation the Existing Notes and the guarantees thereof (other than Indebtedness referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x) and (xii));

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) guarantees by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture; provided that in the event such Indebtedness that is being guaranteed is Subordinated Indebtedness, then the related guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or the Guarantees, as
the case may be;

(v) [*Reserved*.]

(vi) Indebtedness of the Issuer owed to and held by a Restricted Subsidiary and Indebtedness of any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries owed to and held by the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; *provided*, *however*, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) if the Issuer is the obligor on Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if a Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is the
obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) (1) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests or any other event which results in any such
Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; and (2) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; shall be deemed, in
each case of this clause (C), to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, not permitted by this clause (vi);

(vii) Indebtedness in respect of workers' compensation claims, bank guarantees, letters of credit, warehouse
receipt or similar facilities, property, casualty or liability insurance, take-or-pay obligations in supply arrangements, self-insurance obligations or completion,
performance, bid performance, appeal or surety bonds in each case issued in the ordinary course of business and not in connection with the borrowing of money or the obtaining of an advance or credit (other than advances or credit for goods and
services in the ordinary course of business and on customary terms and conditions that are customary in the Permitted Business, and other than the extension of credit represented by such letter of credit, guarantee or completion, performance, bid,
appeal or surety bond itself);

(xi) deposit in the ordinary course of business;

obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business or assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary, other than guarantees of
Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Equity Interests for the purpose of financing or in contemplation of any such acquisition;

(xiv) Indebtedness in respect of Specified Cash Management Agreements entered into in the ordinary course of
business;

(xv) Indebtedness of Persons incurred and outstanding on the date on which such Person was acquired by the Issuer or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or amalgamated, merged or consolidated with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such acquisition, amalgamation,

giving *pro forma* effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (xiv) and any other related Indebtedness, either (A) the Issuer would have been able to incur C$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u> or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such
acquisition, amalgamation, merger or consolidation;

the greater of (A) C$400 million and (B) 6% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets (determined at the time of incurrence and after giving *pro forma* effect to the use of proceeds therefrom).

------

(c) For the purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted
Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xviii) of <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)</u> or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u>, the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item
of Indebtedness and may divide and classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described therein (except that Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been
incurred under <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)(i)</u>), and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xviii) of <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)</u> (provided that at the time of reclassification
it meets the criteria in such category or categories);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the
determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could have incurred such Indebtedness;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to
the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Indebtedness of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or
amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed to have been incurred by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
(or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>, the Issuer shall be
in Default of this this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>; provided that any Indebtedness of such Person that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon consummation of the transaction by which such
Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) will be deemed to not be Indebtedness for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>. <u> </u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed or first incurred (whichever yields the lowest Canadian dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; *provided* that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least C$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the test described in <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the amount of such Restricted Payment, when added to the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made
after the 2029 Notes Issue Date (other than Restricted Payments made pursuant to clause (ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii), (xiii), (xiv) or (xv) of <u>Section</u> <u>4.4(b)</u>), is less than the sum (the

accounting period) commencing on January 1, 2021 to and including the last day of the fiscal quarter ended immediately prior to the date of such calculation for which consolidated financial statements are available (or, if such Consolidated Net
Income shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), *plus* 

(B) 100% of (1) the aggregate net cash proceeds and (2) the Fair Market Value of (x) marketable
securities (other than marketable securities of the Issuer), (y) Equity Interests of a Person (other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer) engaged in a Permitted Business and (z) other assets used in any Permitted Business, received by
the Issuer after the 2029 Notes Issue Date, in each case as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Qualified Equity Interests or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Equity Interests or
convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Issuer that have been converted into or exchanged for such Qualified Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests or debt securities sold to a Subsidiary of the Issuer or net cash proceeds received

such Investment that was treated as a Restricted Payment, in either case, less the cost of the disposition of such Investment and net of taxes, *plus*

For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on Restricted Payments denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent amount of such Restricted Payment shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Restricted Payment was made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.4</u>, in the event that any Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments described in clauses (i) through (xvi) above or one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments (or portions of any of the foregoing) or pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.4(a)</u>, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may order and classify (based on circumstances existing at the time of such reorder or reclassification) such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) in any manner in compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.4</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks *pari passu* with the Securities or a Guarantee,
effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or a
Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

in each case, for so long as such obligation is secured by such Lien.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "*Increased Amount*" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.5</u>, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (i) through (xxxi) of the definition of "Permitted Liens," the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify and redivide any Lien described in clauses (i) through (xxxi) of the definition of "Permitted Liens" (*provided* that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Shares in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends
or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Equity Interests);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) make loans or advances, or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed, to the Issuer or any other Restricted
Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to other Indebtedness or obligations incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

property);

(iv) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in
existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the
property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired (including after acquired property);

(v) any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, replacement or refinancing of an agreement
referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), or (x) of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u>; *provided, however,* that such amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, replacements or refinancings, taken
as a whole, are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, not materially more restrictive than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u> on the Issue Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was amalgamated or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable;

the ordinary course of business;

(viii) in the case of <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(a)(iii)</u>, Liens permitted to be incurred under <u>Section</u> <u>4.5</u> that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness;

(ix) any agreement to sell Equity Interests or assets, as permitted under this Indenture, to any Person pending the
closing of such sale;

(x) any other agreement governing Indebtedness or other obligations entered into after the Issue Date if
(A) such agreement contains encumbrances and restrictions that are not materially more restrictive (taken as a whole) with respect to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries than those in effect on the Issue Date with respect to that Restricted
Subsidiary pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date or (B) any such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness is not expected, as determined by the Issuer in good faith, to result in a failure by the Issuer to be able
to make scheduled payments of cash interest and principal on the Securities when due;

(xi) customary provisions in partnership agreements, limited liability company organizational governance documents,
joint venture agreements, shareholder agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business that restrict the disposition or distribution of ownership interests in or assets of such partnership, limited liability
company, joint venture, corporation or similar Person;

(xii) Financing Lease Obligations, Excluded Lease Obligations, Purchase Money Obligations and any Refinancing
Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred in compliance with <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u> that impose restrictions of the nature described in <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(a)(iii)</u> on the assets leased or acquired;

(xiii) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers, suppliers or landlords under

Section 4.7 *Asset Sales*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Sale; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, together with the consideration received in all other Asset Sales by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; for the
purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)(ii)</u> only, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the amount (without duplication) of any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer's most recent consolidated
balance sheet, of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Securities or any Guarantee) that are assumed or forgiven by the transferee of any such assets
pursuant to a novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary against further liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount of any securities, notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days

Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (d) that is at that time
outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)</u>, the 75% limitation referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)(ii)</u> shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) repay, redeem or otherwise retire (A) obligations under the Credit Agreement, (B) Indebtedness (other
than Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor and/or (C) Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien (in each case other than any
Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) and, if the obligations repaid are in respect of revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently
reduce commitments with respect thereto;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) repay, redeem or otherwise retire obligations under other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary
(in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); *provided* that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce obligations
under the Securities as provided under <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u>, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures
set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(g)</u> for a Net Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Securities at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Securities
that would otherwise be prepaid; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) make any capital expenditure or otherwise invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in
the purchase of assets (other than securities and excluding working capital or current assets for the avoidance of doubt) to be used by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity
Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of Net Available Proceeds are not invested or reinvested as contemplated by clause (iii) above within 365 days of receipt thereof, but the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has, within 365 days of receipt of such Net Available Proceeds, entered into a binding contractual commitment upon customary conditions (including a purchase agreement or purchase order) to make such investments, then the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have invested such Net Available Proceeds in accordance with clause (iii) above; *provided* that, in the event and to the extent such investment shall not be completed in whole or in part in accordance with such binding contractual commitment within 180 days after entering into such binding contractual

------

commitment, such binding contractual commitment shall have been terminated in whole or in part, such investment shall be abandoned in whole or in part, or such Net Available Proceeds are not otherwise applied to fund such investment in whole or in part, then such Net Available Proceeds (or balance of Net Available Proceeds related to the non-completed portion of a binding contractual commitment in the event of a partial completion, termination, abandonment or application) shall constitute Net Available Proceeds from and after the date of such cancellation or termination. The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(d)</u> will constitute "*Excess Proceeds*."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Pending the final application of any Net Available Proceeds pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary holding such Net Available Proceeds may apply such Net Available Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

| (f) (i) | On the 366th day after an Asset Sale (or, at the Issuer's option, an earlier date or any later date contemplated by paragraph (d) above), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds C$100 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase or redeem (a "*Net Proceeds Offer*") from all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase or redeem such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase or redeem the maximum principal amount of Securities, and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Net Proceeds Offer applies that may be purchased or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of US$2,000 or integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof.  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make an Net Proceeds Offer as described in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(g)(i)</u>, the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such
Holders to make an informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business
Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (g) (i) | The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Period*"). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the "*Net Proceeds Purchase Date*"), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Amount*") or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer.  |

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment
date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Securities pursuant to the Net
Proceeds Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a
pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer,
or if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Securities so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum denominations of US$2,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000
in excess thereof. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that such Securities or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly
(but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as
the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Securities or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer
will promptly issue a new Security, and the U.S. Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers' Certificate from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Security to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion
of the Security surrendered; *provided* that each such new Security will be in a minimum denomination in a principal amount of US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other
actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Security not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer
on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> and/or <u>Article V</u> and not by the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>:<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an
election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the U.S. Exchange Act and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any Applicable Laws and regulations conflict with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>, the Issuer shall comply with such Applicable Laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> by virtue of such compliance.

Section 4.8 *Transactions with Affiliates*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (an "*Affiliate Transaction*") involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of C$25.0 million, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that would reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm's length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of C$75 million, an Officer
of the Issuer has determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of C$100 million, a
resolution has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The restrictions in <u>Section</u> <u>4.8(a)</u> shall not apply to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) transactions exclusively between or among (A) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or
(B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) director, trustee, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including pursuant
to any employment agreement or any retirement, health, stock option or other benefit plan), payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees of the Issuer and indemnification arrangements, in each case, as reasonably determined in good
faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors or senior management;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Permitted Investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>4.4</u>; <u> </u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a
whole, is not, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, materially more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an
Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) (A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or proceeds therefrom or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Guarantees by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the performance obligations of Unrestricted
Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (excluding guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustees a
letter from a Canadian or U.S. nationally recognized accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of <u>Section</u> <u>4.8(a)(i)</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Financing.

Section 4.9 *Additional Subsidiary Guarantees*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any of Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor incurs or guarantees any Triggering Indebtedness, then the Issuer shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustees within 30 Business Days a supplemental
indenture in substantially the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit D</u>, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) that such Guarantee has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary.

Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer may also elect to cause any other Restricted Subsidiary to issue a Guarantee and become a Guarantor.

Section 4.10 *Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.20(b)</u>, designate any Subsidiary (including any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a "*Designation*"), *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation
(unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer would be permitted to make, at the time of such Designation, (A) a Permitted Investment or
(B) an Investment pursuant to clause (b) below, in either case, in an amount (the "*Designation Amount*") equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on the date such Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any
agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or
the Restricted Subsidiary than those that would reasonably be expected to be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Subsidiary has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any
Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless such guarantee is released concurrent with such Designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For purposes of any Designation, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of "Investment." Such Designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a "*Redesignation*") only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Redesignation;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) all Liens, Indebtedness and Investments of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such
Redesignation would, if incurred or made at such time, have been permitted to be incurred or made for all purposes of this Indenture.

Section 4.13 *Offer to Purchase Securities upon Change of Control*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.13(h)</u>, upon the occurrence of any Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Securities as described under <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u>, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer purchase all or any portion (in minimum denominations equal to US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder's Securities for a cash price (the "*Change of Control Purchase Price*") equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No later than 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustees, a notice:

" *Change of Control Offer* "), on a date specified in such notice, which shall be a Business Day not earlier than 10 days, nor, unless such Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event,
later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the "*Change of Control Payment Date* "), and for the Change of Control Purchase Price, all Securities properly tendered by such Holder pursuant to such Change of Control
Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) describing the procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that Holders must

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) A Change of Control Offer will be required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or for such longer period as is required by law. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event and a Holder will not have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase any Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer if (i) a third party makes an offer to purchase the Securities in the manner, at the times and otherwise in substantial compliance with the requirements set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, or (ii) a Redemption Notice has been given pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u> unless and until there is a Default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Issuer will comply with Applicable Laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Applicable Laws and regulations conflict with the requirements of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>, the Issuer shall comply with such Applicable Laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> by virtue of such compliance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The provisions in this Indenture relating to the Issuer's obligation to make a Change of Control Offer may be waived, modified or terminated with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding.

Section 4.14 *Maintenance of Office or Agency*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency in the continental United States where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer and Guarantors in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustees of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustees with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the U.S. Trustee.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies in the continental United States where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Issuer or by any other obligor on the Securities) in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities and will notify the U.S. Trustee of the receipt of sums to be so held;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) that it will give the U.S. Trustee notice of any failure by the Issuer (or by any other obligor on the Securities) to make any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities when the same shall be due and payable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) that it will at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default specified in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1</u>, upon the written request of the U.S. Trustee, deliver to the U.S. Trustee all sums so held in trust by it; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Issuer shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, by 11:00 a.m., (New York City time) on each due date of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Securities, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, a sum sufficient to pay such principal or premium or interest so becoming due and will notify the U.S. Trustee of any failure to take such action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Anything in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.15</u> to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Paying Agent for delivery to the U.S. Trustee all sums held in trust by it, as required by this <u>Section</u> <u>4.15</u>, such sums to be delivered by the Paying Agent to the U.S. Trustee to be held by the U.S. Trustee upon the trusts herein contained.

------

Section 4.17 *Compliance Certificate*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustees, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, an Officers' Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether each has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that, to his or her knowledge, each entity has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that, to his or her knowledge, no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments. on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustees, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

The Issuer shall keep or cause to be kept, and shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary to keep or cause to be kept proper books of record and account, in which full and correct entries (in all material respects) shall be made of all financial transactions and the property and business of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP.

**ARTICLE V** 

**SUCCESSORS TO THE ISSUER AND THE RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES** 

Section 5.1 *Restrictions on Amalgamation, Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Certain Assets*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, amalgamate, consolidate, or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving Person), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer will be the surviving or continuing Person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Person (if other than the Issuer) formed by or surviving or continuing from such amalgamation,
consolidation, merger, winding up or dissolution or to which such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or assignment shall be made (collectively, the "*Successor*") is a corporation, limited liability company or
limited partnership organized and existing under the laws of Canada or any province thereof or the United States of America or of any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, and the Successor expressly assumes, by
operation of law or supplemental indenture, all of the obligations of the Issuer under the Securities and this Indenture; provided, that if the Successor is not a corporation, a Restricted Subsidiary that is a corporation expressly assumes as co-obligor all of the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Securities pursuant to a supplemental indenture to this Indenture executed and delivered to the Trustees (for greater certainty, the
Issuer shall be considered to be the Successor in the event of a statutory amalgamation governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof of the Issuer with any other Restricted Subsidiary);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as set forth in
clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) immediately after giving *pro forma* effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as
set forth in clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, (A) the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, could incur
C$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u> or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio for the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or
equal to such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) promptly after consummation of such transaction, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustees an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or transfer and such agreement and/or supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture;

*provided* that clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall not apply in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger with or into, or sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposal of or assignment of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to, another Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary.

For purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(a)</u>, any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Issuer immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to have been incurred in connection with such transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except in circumstances providing for the release of a Guarantor described under <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u>, no Guarantor will, and the Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, amalgamate, consolidate or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person (whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of its assets to any Person (other than the Issuer or another Guarantor) unless either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) (1) such Guarantor will be the surviving or continuing Person; or (2) the Person (if other than
such Guarantor) formed by or surviving any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, winding-up or dissolution is another Guarantor or assumes, by operation of law or supplemental indenture, all of the
obligations of such Guarantor under the Guarantee of such Guarantor and this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) except in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and any Guarantor, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, and such agreements and/or supplemental indenture (if any), comply with this Indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of a sale or other disposition, the transaction does not violate <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.

------

For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, the Equity Interests of which constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer, will be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon any amalgamation, merger or consolidation of the Issuer or a Guarantor or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1</u>, in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is not the continuing obligor under the Securities or its Guarantee, as applicable, the surviving entity formed by such amalgamation, merger or consolidation or into which the Issuer or such Guarantor is merged or the Person to which the sale, conveyance, lease, transfer, disposition or assignment is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer or such Guarantor under this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named therein as the Issuer or such Guarantor and, except in the case of a lease, the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Securities or in respect of its Guarantee, as the case may be, and all of the Issuer's or such Guarantor's other obligations and covenants under the Securities, this Indenture and its Guarantee, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the Issuer or any Guarantor may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or part of its properties and assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor or merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer solely for the purpose of reincorporating in Canada or a province thereof, a state of the United States or the District of Columbia, as long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby.

Section 5.2 *Vesting of Powers in Successor*

Whenever the conditions of <u>Section</u> <u>5.1</u> have been duly observed and performed, the Trustees will execute and deliver a Supplemental Indenture as provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>9.5</u> and then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Successor Person will possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of the Issuer or Guarantor under this Indenture in the name of the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, or otherwise, and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required to be done or performed by any directors or officers of the Issuer or Guarantor may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of such successor; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, will be released and discharged from liability under this Indenture and the Trustees will execute any documents which it may be advised are necessary or advisable for effecting or evidencing such release and discharge.

**ARTICLE VI** 

**DEFAULT AND ENFORCEMENT** 

Section 6.1 *Events of Default*

"*Event of Default*" means any one of the following events:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) failure to pay interest on any of the Securities when the same becomes due and payable and the continuance of any such failure for 30 days;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, on any of the Securities when it becomes due and payable, whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon purchase, upon acceleration or otherwise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with any of their respective agreements or covenants under <u>Article V</u> or failure by the Issuer to comply with its obligations to make a Change of Control Offer pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>;<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) except with respect to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with any other agreement or covenant in this Indenture and continuance of this failure for 60 days (or, in the case of a failure to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>4.2</u>, 120 days) after notice of the failure has been given to the Issuer by the U.S. Trustee or to the Issuer and the U.S. Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) default by the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries under any mortgage, indenture or other instrument or agreement under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced Indebtedness for borrowed money by the Issuer or such Significant Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness now exists or is incurred after the Issue Date, which default:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) is caused by a failure to pay at its Stated Maturity principal on such Indebtedness within the applicable
express grace period and any extensions thereof (a "*Payment Default* "), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity (which acceleration is not
rescinded, annulled or otherwise cured within 30 days of receipt by the Issuer or such Significant Subsidiary of notice of any such acceleration),

and, in each case, the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other Indebtedness with respect to which an event described in clause (i) or (ii) has occurred and is continuing, aggregates C$100 million or more;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) one or more judgments (to the extent not covered by insurance) for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of C$100 million shall be rendered against the Issuer, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any combination thereof and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of 60 consecutive days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) applies for or consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) applies for or consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its
property,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) generally is not paying its debts as they become due;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) is for relief against the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) appoints a custodian of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) orders the liquidation of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer or group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantee and this Indenture) or is declared null and void and unenforceable or found to be invalid or any Guarantor denies its liability under the Guarantee of such Guarantor (other than by reason of release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Guarantee).

Section 6.2 *Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, Annulment and Waiver*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> with respect to the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the U.S. Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the U.S. Trustee, may declare (an "*acceleration declaration*") all amounts owing under the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration, the aggregate principal (and premium, if any) of and

------

accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Securities shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> occurs with respect to the Issuer, then the principal of (and premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Securities will thereupon become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other action on the part of the Trustees or any Holder to the extent permitted by applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the U.S. Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the
Issuer, the Holders and the U.S. Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts
of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) and the Issuer has paid all sums owing to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>7.6</u> hereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the U.S. Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Securities
(or any of them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any Event of Default if, in the U.S. Trustee's opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor,
and in such event to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences;

*provided* that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>6.2(a)</u>, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of Default specified in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(e)</u> shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the U.S. Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Trustees may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Securities.

------

Section 6.3 *Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer covenants that if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due
and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any on) any Security at the Stated Maturity
thereof and such default continues for a period of three Business Days,

the Issuer will, upon demand of the U.S. Trustee, pay to the U.S. Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the U.S.

Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor (including the Guarantors, if any) upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee may in its

discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the U.S. Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 6.4 *Trustee May File Proofs of Claim*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In case of any pending receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer and its debts or any other obligor upon the Securities (including the Guarantors, if any), and their debts or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors, the U.S. Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the U.S. Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal (and premium, if any) or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the U.S. Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same,

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the U.S. Trustee and, in the event that the U.S. Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the U.S. Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the U.S. Trustee hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the U.S. Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the U.S. Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.5 *Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities*

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the U.S. Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the U.S. Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Section 6.6 *Application of Monies by Trustee*

Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, any money collected by the U.S. Trustee pursuant to this <u>Article VI</u> shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the U.S. Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) first, in payment or in reimbursement to the U.S. Trustee of its reasonable compensation, costs, charges, expenses, borrowings, advances, indemnity amounts or other monies furnished or provided by or at the instance of the U.S. Trustee in or about the execution of its trusts under, or otherwise in relation to, this Indenture, with interest thereon as herein provided;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) second, but subject as hereinafter in this <u>Section</u> <u>6.6</u> provided, in payment, ratably and proportionately to the Holders, of the principal of and premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on the Securities which shall then be outstanding in the priority of principal first and then premium and then accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) third, in payment of the surplus, if any, of such monies to the Issuer or its assigns and/or the Guarantors, as the case may be;

*provided, however,* that no payment shall be made pursuant to clause (ii) in respect of the principal, premium or interest on any Securities held, directly or indirectly, by or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than any Securities pledged for value and in good faith to a Person other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer but only to the extent of such Person's interest therein), except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on all Securities which are not so held.

Section 6.7 *No Suits by Holders*

Except to enforce payment of the principal of, and premium (if any) or interest on any Security (after giving effect to any applicable grace period specified therefor in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(a)</u>), no Holder shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a liquidator, trustee or receiver or for a receiving order under any Bankruptcy Laws or to have the Issuer or any Guarantor wound up or to file or prove a claim in any liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Holder gives the U.S. Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustees to pursue the remedy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustees indemnity satisfactory to the Trustees against any costs, liability or expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Trustees do not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) during such 60 day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities do not give the Trustees a direction that is inconsistent with the request;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders.

Section 6.8 *Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest*

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Holder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities held by such Holder on the applicable Maturity date and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

------

Section 6.9 *Restoration of Rights and Remedies*

If the U.S. Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the U.S. Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantors (if any), the U.S. Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the U.S. Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.10 *Rights and Remedies Cumulative*

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the U.S. Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11 *Delay or Omission Not Waiver*

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

Section 6.12 *Direction by Holders*

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the U.S. Trustee. However, subject to Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u>, the U.S. Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the U.S. Trustee in personal liability, or that the U.S. Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Securities not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Securities.

Section 6.13 *Notice of Event of Default*

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the U.S. Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Canadian Trustee and the Holders, *provided* that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the U.S. Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, the U.S. Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the U.S. Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.

------

Section 6.14 *Undertaking for Costs*

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustees for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as a Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant.

Section 6.15 *Judgment Against the Issuer*

The Issuer covenants and agrees with the U.S. Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Holders, judgment may be rendered against it in favor of the Holders or in favor of the U.S. Trustee, as trustee for the Holders, for any amount which may remain due in respect of the Securities and premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

Section 7.1 *Duties of U.S. Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee, once it becomes aware of such Event of Default, shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the U.S. Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the U.S. Trustee; and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the U.S. Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the U.S. Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the U.S. Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The U.S. Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) this <u>Section</u> <u>7.1(c)</u> does not limit the effect of <u>Section</u> <u>7.1(b)</u> hereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of the U.S. Trustee unless it is proved that the U.S. Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.12 hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the U.S. Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate security or indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The permissive authorizations, entitlements, powers and rights (including the right to request that the Issuer take an action or deliver a document and the exercise of remedies following an Event of Default) granted to the U.S. Trustee herein shall not be construed as duties.

Section 7.2 *Rights of Trustees.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Trustees may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustees need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Before either of the Trustees acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Trustees may consult with their respective counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Except for (i) a default under <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(a)</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(b)</u> hereof, or (ii) any other event of which a Trustee has actual knowledge and which event, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture, the Trustees shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless specifically notified in writing of such event by the Issuer or by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities, and such notice is received at the Corporate Trust Offices of the Trustees and references the Securities and this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities, exculpations and benefits given to each of the Trustees, including, without limitation, its right to be compensated and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, such Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, to the other Trustee, the Agents and to each other agent, custodian and Person employed to act hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Trustees shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of their respective powers and duties hereunder.

The Issuer will make the calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding on the Holders of the Securities. The Issuer will provide a schedule of its calculations to the Trustees when applicable, and the Trustees are entitled to rely conclusively on the accuracy of the Issuer's calculations without independent verification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) The Trustees shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but either Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if a Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuer and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

Section 7.3 *Individual Rights of U.S. Trustee*

The U.S. Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not U.S. Trustee. However, in the event that the U.S. Trustee acquires any conflicting interest after a Default has occurred and is continuing, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as U.S. Trustee or resign. The U.S. Trustee is also subject to <u>Sections 7.10</u> and <u>7.11</u> hereof.

------

Section 7.4 *U.S. Trustee's Disclaimer*

Under no circumstances shall the U.S. Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Securities.

Section 7.5 *Notice of Defaults*

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer of the U.S. Trustee has knowledge thereof as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>7.2(f)</u>, the U.S. Trustee shall send to each Holder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default relating to payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security (including payments pursuant to the redemption or required repurchase provisions of such Security), the U.S. Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its board of directors, the executive committee of its board of directors or a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

Section 7.6 *Compensation and Indemnity*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall pay to each of the Trustees from time to time, and the Trustees shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for its services hereunder and under the Securities as the Issuer and the Trustees shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustees' compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse each of the Trustees, as applicable, upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel retained by the Trustees in connection with the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel or otherwise, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustees' respective agents and counsel. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each of the Trustees (in its individual and trustee capacities) and its respective officers, directors and agents from and against any and all loss, liability, claims, action, suit, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and the trusts thereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Securities, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>) and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or otherwise). Each Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity of which it has received written notice. Failure by either of the Trustees, as applicable, to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim, and the Trustees may each have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer is not required to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability claim, again, suit, cost or expense incurred by the either of the Trustees through the Trustees' respective own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To secure the Issuer's payment obligations in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>, the Trustees shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustees other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of, premium (if any) and interest on particular Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer's obligations pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of any Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustees under applicable law, when the U.S. Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> hereof with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.7 *Replacement of Trustees*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities may remove a Trustee by so notifying such Trustee and the Issuer and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer may remove a Trustee if: (i) such Trustee fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof; (ii) such Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; (iii) a custodian or other public officer takes charge of such Trustee or its property; or (iv) such Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If a Trustee resigns or is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of such Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of such retiring Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If either of the Trustees fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof after written notice thereto, the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of such Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Notwithstanding the replacement of a Trustee pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u>, the Issuer's obligations under <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

------

Section 7.8 *Successor Trustees by Merger*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If either the U.S. Trustee or Canadian Trustee or any Agent consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor U.S. Trustee or Canadian Trustee or Agent, as applicable.

Section 7.9 *Eligibility; Disqualification*

There shall at all times be at least one Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus (together with its Affiliates) of at least US$50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. Each Trustee hereunder shall comply with TIA Section 3.10(b) to the extent required; *provided*, *however*, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 3.10(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 3.10(b)(1) are met.

Section 7.10 *No Liability for Co-Trustee*

No Trustee appointed hereunder shall be personally liable or responsible by reason of any act or omission of any other Trustee hereunder.

Section 7.11 *Canadian Trustee*

The Issuer has appointed the Canadian Trustee under this Indenture in order to comply with Canadian Securities Laws and the Business Corporations Act (Alberta).

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer has paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture, and

Section 8.3 *Legal Defeasance and Discharge*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.2</u> of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.3</u>, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.5</u>, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations, other than the provisions contemplated to survive as set forth below, with respect to all outstanding Securities on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "*Legal Defeasance*"). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities (including the Guarantees thereof), which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of <u>Sections 8.6</u> and <u>8.8</u> and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Securities, this Indenture and the Guarantees (and the U.S. Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any,

connection therewith under <u>Sections 8.6</u>, <u>8.7</u> and <u>8.8</u> and <u>Article VII</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) this <u>Section</u> <u>8.3</u>.

Upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.2</u> of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.4</u>, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.5</u>, be released from each of their obligations contained in <u>Sections 4.2</u>, <u>4.3</u>, <u>4.4</u>, <u>4.5</u>, <u>4.6</u>, <u>4.7</u>, <u>4.8</u>, <u>4.9</u>, <u>4.10</u>, <u>4.13</u>, <u>4.17</u> and <u>5.1(a)(iii)</u> (collectively, the "*Defeased Covenants*") with respect to the outstanding Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.5</u> are satisfied (hereinafter, "*Covenant Defeasance*"), and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed not "outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders thereof (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with the Defeased Covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any Defeased Covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, such Securities and the obligations of the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.2</u> of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.4</u>, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.5</u>, the events specified in <u>Sections 6.1(c)</u>, <u>6.1(d)</u>, <u>6.1(e)</u>, <u>6.1(f)</u>, <u>6.1(g)</u>, <u>6.1(h)</u> and <u>6.1(i)</u> shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default.

income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, and should be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax on
the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, had not occurred,

(v) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either (A) on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings) or (B) insofar as Defaults from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on
the 91st day after the date of deposit,

(vi) the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a

**SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES** 

Section 10.1 *Subsidiary Guarantees*

Each Guarantor which is a party hereto or becomes a party hereto by executing and delivering a supplement to this Indenture pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.9</u> hereof, jointly and severally, unconditionally Guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustees and their respective successors and assigns the full and punctual payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the Securities when due, whether at Stated Maturity, or upon redemption, required repurchase pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> hereof, acceleration or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations owing by the Issuer under this Indenture (including obligations owing to the Trustees) and the Securities (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the "*Indenture Obligations*"). The Guarantors further agree that the Indenture Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from the Guarantors, and that the Guarantors will remain bound under this <u>Article X</u> notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Indenture Obligation.

The Guarantors waive presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Indenture Obligations and also waive notice of protest for nonpayment. The Guarantors waive notice of any Default under the Securities or the Indenture Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by: (i) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any Indenture Obligation; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment, modification or supplement of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture (other than this <u>Article X</u>), the Securities or any other agreement; (iv) the release of security, if any, held by any Holder or either of the Trustees for the Indenture Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Indenture Obligations; (vi) any change in the ownership of the Issuer; or (vii) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of law or equity, except for payment of the Securities in full.

------

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein constitute a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waive any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or either of the Trustees to security, if any, held for payment of the Indenture Obligations.

The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (except to the extent provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.2</u> hereof), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Indenture Obligations or otherwise.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Indenture Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or either of the Trustees upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or either of the Trustees has at law or in equity against the Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any Indenture Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, required repurchase, acceleration or otherwise, the Guarantors hereby promise to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustees, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustees an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Indenture Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Indenture Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary Indenture Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders and the Trustees.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustees, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Indenture Obligations may be accelerated as provided in <u>Article VI</u> for the purposes of the Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Indenture Obligations, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Indenture Obligations as provided in <u>Article VI</u>, such Indenture Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, also agree to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustees or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

Section 10.2 *Limitation on Liability*

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities, each Holder, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustees, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this <u>Article X</u>, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

------

Section 10.3 *Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee*

The execution by each Guarantor of this Indenture (or a Supplemental Indenture) evidences the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Security. The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor.

The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

In the event that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date, the Issuer will comply with the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.9</u> hereof.

Section 10.4 *Successors and Assigns*

Except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof, this <u>Article X</u> shall be binding upon the Guarantors and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustees and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights in accordance with the terms of this Indenture by any Holder or the Trustees, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees.

Section 10.5 *No Waiver*

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustees or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this <u>Article X</u> shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustees and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this <u>Article X</u> at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Section 10.6 *Right of Contribution*

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor's right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this <u>Article X</u>. The provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.6</u> shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Trustees and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustees and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

------

Section 10.7 *No Subrogation*

Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Guarantors hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to exercise any rights of subrogation it may have to any of the rights of either of the Trustees or any Holder against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by either of the Trustees or any Holder for the payment of the Indenture Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustees and the Holders by the Issuer on account of the Indenture Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Indenture Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustees and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustees in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustees, if required), to be applied against the Indenture Obligations.

Section 10.8 *Modification*

No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this <u>Article X</u>, nor the consent to any departure by the Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with <u>Article IX</u> hereof. No notice to or demand on the Guarantors in any case shall entitle the Guarantors to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Section 10.9 *Release of Guarantee*

A Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under its Guarantee and its obligations under this Indenture after the occurrence of any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) (i) any sale, exchange or transfer (by amalgamation, merger, consolidation or otherwise) of the Equity Interests of such Guarantor after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, which sale, exchange or transfer does not violate the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the proper designation of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if that Guarantor ceases to guarantee or to be liable for any Triggering Indebtedness, except if the release or
discharge thereof results from a demand for payment under such guarantee; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as provided under <u>Article VIII</u>; and

EACH PARTY (AND EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A SECURITY) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO ARE ENTERING INTO THIS INDENTURE IN RELIANCE UPON SUCH WAIVER.

------

Section 11.10 *Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Prescription*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each party to this Indenture or the Securities hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of (i) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or of any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) and (ii) the courts of its own corporate domicile, in each case with all applicable courts of appeal therefrom, with respect to actions brought against it as a defendant, for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the Securities or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; *provided* that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the ability of any party to this Indenture or the Securities to bring suit in any other permissible jurisdiction. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court, any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and any objection based on place of residence or domicile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors irrevocably appoints Corporation Service Company, with address at 1180 Avenue of the Americas, Suite 210, New York, New York 10036, United States, as its authorized agent on which any and all legal process may be served in any such action, suit or proceeding brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or in any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) in connection with this Indenture or the Securities. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that service of process in respect of it upon such agent, together with written notice of such service sent to it in the manner provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, shall be deemed to be effective service of process upon it in any such action, suit or proceeding. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that the failure of such agent to give notice to it of any such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any action, suit or proceeding based thereon. If for any reason such agent shall cease to be available to act as such (including by reason of the failure of such agent to maintain an office in New York City), the Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees promptly to designate a new agent in New York City, on the terms and for the purposes of this Section. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the U.S. Trustee to serve any such legal process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law or to obtain jurisdiction over the Issuer or bring actions, suits or proceedings against it in such other jurisdictions, and in such manner, as may be permitted by Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors will waive any immunity (including sovereign immunity), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any such suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Claims against the Issuer or any Guarantor for the payment of principal or interest and Additional Amounts in respect of the Securities or the Guarantee, as the case may be, will be prescribed unless made within six years of the due date for payment of such principal or interest and Additional Amounts.

Section 11.11 *Force Majeure*

In no event shall the Trustees be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustees shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

------

Section 11.12 *No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Shareholders*

No director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Issuer, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Issuer is a trustee or carrier shall have any liability for any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Securities or this Indenture or any Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities and the Guarantees. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under applicable securities laws.

Section 11.13 *Immunity*

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby waives any claim it may have to immunity (whether sovereign or otherwise), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

Section 11.14 *Conversion of Currency*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due under this Indenture to the Holder from another currency to U.S. Dollars, the Issuer and each Guarantor agree, and each Holder by holding a Security will be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase U.S. Dollars with such other currency in the State of New York on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "*judgment currency*") other than U.S. Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or a Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in such judgment currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. Dollars with the judgment currency. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee in the judgment currency (as determined in the manner set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.14(a)</u>), as the case may be, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Holder and the Trustee, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, will pay the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor such excess; *provided* that such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a Default under the Securities or this Indenture has occurred and is continuing or if the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have failed to pay any Holder any amounts then due and payable under such Security or this Indenture, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder or such Trustee to such obligations.

------

Section 11.15 *Successors*

All agreements of the Issuer and (except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof) the Guarantors in this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustees in this Indenture shall bind their respective successors.

Section 11.16 *Multiple Originals; Counterparts*

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. This Indenture may be executed in multiple counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

Section 11.17 *Severability*

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 11.18 *Table of Contents; Headings*

The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 11.19 *No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements*

This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

Section 11.20 *Acts of Holders*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and may be given or obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, outstanding Securities; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the U.S. Trustee, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Canadian Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "*Act*" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustees and the Issuer if made in the manner provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.20</u>.<u> </u>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such witness, notary or officer the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the U.S. Trustee deems sufficient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.18</u>, the principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Holder, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the register of the Securities maintained by the Registrar as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders of the Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Issuer may, at their option, by or pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Issuer shall have no obligation to do so. Such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith or the date of the most recent list of Holders forwarded to the U.S. Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.6</u> and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the then outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the then outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; *provided* that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent (to an amendment hereof or otherwise), waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration or transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustees or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. After any amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder unless it makes a change described in clauses (a) through (j) of <u>Section</u> <u>9.2</u>, in which case the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so itself with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

For purposes of this Indenture, any action by the Holders which may be taken in writing may be taken by electronic means or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee.

------

Section 11.21 *USA PATRIOT Act*

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the U.S. Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The Issuer agrees that it will provide the U.S. Trustee with information about the Issuer as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably request in order for the U.S. Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.

Section 11.22 *Canadian Trustee Not Bound to Act*

The Canadian Trustee shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever the Canadian Trustee, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in noncompliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Canadian Trustee, in its sole judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Indenture has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on ten (10) days written notice to the other parties to this Indenture, provided (i) that the Canadian Trustee's written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (ii) that if such circumstances are rectified to the Canadian Trustee's satisfaction within such ten (10) day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.

**[BACK OF SECURITY]** 

**PARKLAND CORPORATION** 

**4.500% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2029** 

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*1. Interest*. Parkland Corporation, a corporation amalgamated under the laws of the Province of Alberta (the "*Issuer*"), promises to pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of this Security at the rate of 4.500% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "*Interest Payment Date*"), *provided*, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be [insert first interest payment date]<sup>\*\*</sup>. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; *provided* that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Security is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the rate then in effect; it will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate as on overdue principal. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*2. Additional Amounts*. The Issuer will pay to the Holders such Additional Amounts as may become payable under <u>Section</u> <u>2.6</u> of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*3. Method of Payment*. The Issuer will pay interest on the Securities (except Defaulted Interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business on the March 15 and September 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Securities are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.12</u> of the Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest.

When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof), the date of determination of such basket or ratio and of any Default or Event of Default may, at the option of the Issuer, be the date the definitive agreement(s) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into. Any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a *pro forma* basis, including with such adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the *pro forma* adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio," after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had been consummated at the beginning of the applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Transaction; provided that if the Issuer elects to make such determination as of the date of such definitive agreement(s), then (x) the Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with such ratios or baskets solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) are permitted under this Indenture, and (y) such ratios or baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related transactions; *provided, further*, that if the Issuer elects to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement(s), any such transactions (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares and the use of proceeds thereof) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreement(s) is entered into and shall be deemed outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any ratios or baskets under this Indenture after the date of such definitive agreement(s) and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, unless such definitive agreement(s) is terminated or such Limited Condition Transaction or incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Shares or such other transaction to which *pro forma* effect is being given does not occur. The Trustees will have no responsibility to make any calculations pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>1.4</u>.<u> </u>

**ARTICLE II** 

**THE SECURITIES** 

Section 2.1 *Form and Dating*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(a) General*. The Securities and the U.S. Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Security shall

------

be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities shall be in minimum denominations of US$2,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. The terms and provisions contained in the Securities shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustees, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Security or any Guarantee conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture (to the extent permitted by law) shall govern and be controlling.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(b) Global Securities*. The Securities issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto (including the Global Security Legend thereon and the "Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security" attached thereto). The Securities issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto (but without the Global Security Legend thereon and without the "Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security" attached thereto). Each Global Security shall represent the amount of outstanding Securities specified therein, and each Global Security shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the U.S. Trustee or the Securities Custodian, at the direction of the U.S. Trustee, in accordance with the instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(c) Regulation S Global Securities*. Any Securities offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of a Regulation S Global Security, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Securities Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the U.S. Trustee as hereinafter provided. Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, any resale or transfer of beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Security to U.S. Persons shall not be permitted unless such resale or transfer is made pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(d) 144A Global Securities*. Any Securities offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of a 144A Global Security, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Securities Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the U.S. Trustee as hereinafter provided.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Definitive Securities*. Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.1</u>,<u> </u>any issuance of Definitive Securities shall be at the Issuer's discretion, except in the circumstances set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(a)</u> hereof.

Section 2.2 *Execution and Authentication*

An Officer shall sign the Securities for the Issuer by manual, facsimile or electronically transmitted signature.

------

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the U.S. Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the U.S. Trustee manually authenticates the Security. The signature of the U.S. Trustee on a Security shall be conclusive evidence that such Security has been duly and validly authenticated and issued under this Indenture.

The U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver: (i) Initial Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of US$800,000,000 on the Issue Date, and (ii) if and when issued, Additional Securities (which may be issued in either a registered or a private offering under the U.S. Securities Act), in each case upon a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer (each, an "*Authentication Order*"). Such order shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated and whether the Securities are to be in global or definitive form and whether they are to bear the Private Placement Legend. the Issuer may issue Additional Securities under this Indenture subsequent to the Issue Date.

The U.S. Trustee may appoint an agent (the "*Authenticating Agent*") reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Securities whenever the U.S. Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the U.S. Trustee includes authentication by such agent.

Section 2.3 *Registrar and Paying Agent*

The Issuer shall at all times maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the "*Registrar*"), and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the "*Paying Agent*"). The Securities will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed by such Paying Agent to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; *provided* that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, and premium, if any, on all Global Securities and all other Securities, the Holders of which hold at least US$5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Securities and have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer and the Paying Agent for an account in the U.S. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar, and the term "Paying Agent" includes any such additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice to any Holder.

The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, subject to the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>4.15</u>. Any Paying Agent or Registrar may resign as such upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Issuer and the Trustees; upon resignation of any Paying Agent or Registrar, the Issuer shall appoint a successor Paying Agent or Registrar, as the case may be, complying with the requirements of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u>, no later than 30 days thereafter and shall provide notice to the Trustees of such successor Paying Agent or Registrar.

If at any time there shall be Securities outstanding that are not Global Securities and there shall be no Paying Agent with an office or agency in the City of New York, State of New

------

York, where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, the Issuer shall forthwith designate such a Paying Agent in order that the Securities shall at all times be payable in the City of New York, the State of New York. The Issuer initially appoints the U.S. Trustee to act as Depositary Custodian with respect to the Global Securities. The Trustees and each Agent are hereby authorized to act in accordance with Applicable Procedures with respect to any Global Security.

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company ("*DTC*") to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Securities.

The Issuer initially appoints Computershare Trust Company, N.A. as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Securities.

Section 2.4 *Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust*

By at least 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Security is due and payable, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest when due. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent (other than the U.S. Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the U.S. Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest (if any) on the Securities and shall notify the U.S. Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the U.S. Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the U.S. Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.4</u>, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the U.S. Trustee.

Section 2.5 *Holder Lists*

The U.S. Trustee, as Registrar, shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the U.S. Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the U.S. Trustee, in writing at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the U.S. Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders.

Section 2.6 *Additional Amounts*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All payments made to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Security by or on behalf of the Issuer under or with respect to the Securities or by or on behalf of any Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee, will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Relevant Taxing Authority, unless required by law or the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Issuer or a Guarantor is obligated to withhold or deduct any amount on account of taxes imposed by any Relevant Taxing Authority from any payment made to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Security with respect to the Securities, the Issuer or such Guarantor will:

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

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with the Applicable
Law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) subject to the limitations below, pay to each Holder, as additional interest, such additional amounts
(" *Additional Amounts*") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such
taxes had not been withheld or deducted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) furnish to the Trustees for the benefit of the Holders, within 60 days after the date payment of any taxes are
due pursuant to Applicable Law, certified copies of an official receipt of the Relevant Taxing Authority for all amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to Applicable Law, or if such receipts are not reasonably obtainable, other evidence of payment by
the Issuer or such Guarantor of those taxes; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) at least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable (or, if the obligation to pay
any Additional Amounts does not arise more than 20 days prior to the applicable payment date, reasonably promptly after such obligation arises), deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Additional
Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustees may request to enable the U.S. Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>2.6(a)</u>, neither the Issuer nor a Guarantor will pay Additional Amounts with respect to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Canadian taxes that were imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a Holder or
beneficial owner with which the Issuer, such Guarantor or any transferee to whom a Security is assigned or otherwise transferred, does not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time of making such
payment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any Canadian taxes that were imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a
"specified non-resident shareholder" of the

Issuer or such Guarantor or a non-resident person who does not deal at arm's length with a specified shareholder of the Issuer or such Guarantor, both for the purposes of subsection 18(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada);

(iii) any taxes imposed as a result of the Holder or the beneficial owner being a resident, domicile or national of,
or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some present or former actual or deemed connection with, the Relevant Taxing Authority otherwise than by the mere acquisition, holding,
disposition or enforcement of the Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder;

------

(iv) any taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the
Securities to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and only if such Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to
provide such form or document, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to
enable the Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Securities or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be
delivered within 30 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

(v) any estate, inheritance, gift, wealth or net worth, sales, goods and services, harmonized sales, transfer,
capital gains, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(vi) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding from
payments under or with respect to the Securities (other than taxes payable pursuant to Regulation 803 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or any similar successor provision);

(vii) any tax to the extent such tax was imposed as a result of the beneficiary of the payment not presenting the
Security for payment within 30 days after the date on which such payment on such Security became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later;

(viii) if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to
the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settler with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner
who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) that is imposed under FATCA; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any combination of (i) through (ix).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, purchase price, redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Security, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

Section 2.7 *Transfer and Exchange*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities*. A Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. Owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities shall not be entitled to receive Definitive Securities unless:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Issuer delivers to the Trustees and the Registrar notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default and the Depositary notifies the Trustees and the Registrar of its decision to exchange the Global Securities for Definitive Securities; *provided* that in no event shall the Regulation S Global Security be exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Securities prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period.

Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events in (1) or (2) above, Definitive Securities shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the U.S. Trustee and the Registrar. Global Securities also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u> hereof. Every Security authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u> hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security. A Global Security may not be exchanged for another Security other than as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(a)</u>; however, beneficial interests in a Global Security may be transferred and exchanged as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(b)</u>, <u>(c)</u> or <u>(f)</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Securities*. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Securities shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Securities shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein, including those set forth in the Private Placement Legend, to the extent required by the U.S. Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Securities also shall require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u>, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) *Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Security*. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Security may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Security in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend; *provided, however*, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, (A) transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Security may not be to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser) and (B) such beneficial interests may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream (as Indirect Participants in the Depositary). Beneficial interests in such Unrestricted Global Security may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in the preceding sentence of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(b)(1)</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) *All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities*. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(b)(1)</u> above, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) (i) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) (i) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) The U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof and in accordance with the other provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) The Trustees shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of optional redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Securities. The Trustees shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under Applicable Law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither the Trustees nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

Section 2.8 *Replacement Securities*

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar, or the Issuer and the Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Issuer will issue and the U.S. Trustee, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer conforming to <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof, will authenticate a replacement Security if the Registrar's and the Issuer's reasonable requirements are met. If required by the Registrar or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Registrar, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the U.S. Trustee, the Registrar, any other Agent and any Authenticating Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced.

------

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder, *provided* it is held by a protected purchaser within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u>, rather than authenticating and delivering a replacement Security for a mutilated, destroyed, loss or stolen Security which has been redeemed or the principal of which has matured, the Issuer or the Paying Agent may make payment of the amount due on such security to the Holder upon receipt of the above-described indemnity bond.

Section 2.9 *Outstanding Securities*

The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the U.S. Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the U.S. Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.9</u> as not outstanding. Except as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.6</u> hereof, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the U.S. Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.10 *Temporary Securities*

Until Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Holders of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a holder of Definitive Securities.

Section 2.11 *Cancellation*

The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the U.S. Trustee or any Registrar for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the U.S. Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The U.S. Trustee or the Registrar (and no one else) shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation in accordance with its retention policy then in effect. The Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the U.S. Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation.

------

Section 2.12 *Defaulted Interest*

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest ("*Defaulted Interest*") on the Securities, the Issuer shall pay Defaulted Interest (as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u>) in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay the Defaulted Interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed (or upon the Issuer's failure to do so the U.S. Trustee shall fix pursuant to a written instruction of Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities) any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the U.S. Trustee which special record date shall not be less than 10 days prior to the payment date for such Defaulted Interest and the Issuer, or at the Issuer's request, the U.S. Trustee, shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of Defaulted Interest to be paid. The Issuer shall notify the Trustees in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the U.S. Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the U.S. Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.12</u>.<u> </u>

Section 2.13 *CUSIP Numbers*

The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP," "ISIN" or similar numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the U.S. Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; *provided*, *however*, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustees in writing of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

**ARTICLE III** 

**REDEMPTION** 

Section 3.1 *Notices to U.S. Trustee*

If the Issuer elects to redeem Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u> hereof, it shall notify the U.S. Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed.

The Issuer shall give each notice to the U.S. Trustee and the Registrar provided for in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.1</u> at least three Business Days before the date of giving notice of the redemption pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.3</u>, unless the U.S. Trustee consents to a shorter period. If such redemption is to be effected pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(f)</u>, then such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers' Certificate to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions therein. If fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Issuer and set forth in the related notice given to the U.S. Trustee, which record date shall be not less than 10 days after the date of such notice.

------

Section 3.2 *Partial Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the Securities are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange on which such Securities are listed; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the Securities are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or based on a
method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustees in their sole discretion deem fair and appropriate (or, in the case of Global Securities, based on a method in accordance with the procedures of DTC) unless otherwise required
by Applicable Law or depository requirements,

*provided* that if less than all the Securities are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u>, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as described in clause (ii) unless that method is otherwise prohibited. Subject to the foregoing, Securities or portions of Securities the U.S. Trustee selects for redemption shall be in minimum amounts of US$2,000 or a multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If Securities are to be redeemed in part only, the Redemption Notice that

relates to such Securities will state the portion of the principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed. In the event that one or more of such Securities becomes subject to redemption in part only, upon surrender of any such Securities for payment of the redemption price, together with interest accrued to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, the Issuer shall execute and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without charge to the Holder thereof or upon the Holder's order one or more new Securities for the unredeemed part of the principal amount of the Securities so surrendered or, with respect to Global Securities, the U.S. Trustee shall make notations on the Global Securities of the principal amount thereof so redeemed. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Security" or "Securities" as used in this <u>Article III</u> shall be deemed to mean or include any part of the principal amount of any Security which in accordance with the foregoing provisions has become subject to redemption.

Section 3.3 *Notice of Redemption*

Notice of redemption (the "*Redemption Notice*") of any Securities shall be given to the Holders of the Securities so to be redeemed not more than 60 days nor less than 10 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the "*Redemption Date*") in the manner provided in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>; *provided* that Redemption Notices in respect of optional redemptions of Securities may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the Redemption Notice is issued in connection with a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Every such Redemption Notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date, the redemption price and the places of payment and shall state that interest upon the principal amount of Securities called for redemption shall cease to be payable from and after the Redemption Date. Redemption Notices, including, without limitation, upon a Qualified Equity

------

Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event, may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. If a Redemption Notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such Redemption Notice shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date as stated in such Redemption Notice, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer may provide in such Redemption Notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer's obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

In addition, unless all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the Redemption Notice shall specify:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the CUSIP, ISIN or similar numbers, if any, printed on the Securities which are to be redeemed (as are registered in the name of such Holder);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if such Securities are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to identify the Securities so selected;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) in the case of Global Securities, that the redemption will take place in such manner as may be agreed upon by the Depositary, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) in all cases, the principal amounts of such Securities or, if any such Security is to be redeemed in part only, the principal amount of such part.

Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, in the event that all Securities to be redeemed are Global Securities, publication of the Redemption Notice shall not be required.

Section 3.4 *Effect of Notice of Redemption*

Once notice of redemption is mailed to Holders, Securities (or portions thereof) called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of any condition permitted below. A notice of redemption may be subject to one or more conditions precedent specified in the notice of redemption, including completion of a Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date; *provided* that if the Redemption Date is after the taking of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the redeemed Securities are registered on such record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

Section 3.5 *Deposit of Redemption Price*

No later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall

------

segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities to be redeemed on that date. If the Issuer complies with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>3.5</u>, then on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption.

Section 3.6 *Optional Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time prior to November 1, 2024, the Issuer, at its option, may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Securities), at a redemption price equal to 104.625% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities to be redeemed, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings; *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (including Additional Securities) remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such redemption; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) each such redemption occurs not more than 180 days after the date of the closing of the related Qualified Equity Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time prior to May 1, 2025, the Issuer may redeem all or part of the Securities at a redemption price equal to the sum of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Except pursuant to <u>Sections 3.6(a)</u>, <u>3.6(b)</u>, <u>3.6(e)</u> and <u>3.6(f)</u>, the Securities will not be redeemable at the Issuer's option prior to May 1, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) At any time or from time to time on or after May 1, 2025, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem all or a part of the Securities at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if any, on the Securities to be redeemed, to the applicable Redemption Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on May 1 of the years indicated below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Year** | **Percentage** |
| 2025 | 102.313% |
| 2026 | 101.156% |
|  2027 and thereafter | 100.000% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes obligated to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in the laws, treaties or regulations of any Relevant Taxing Authority, or a change in any official position regarding the application, interpretation or administration thereof (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction) or assessing practice with respect thereto, the enactment or adoption of which change is publicly

------

announced on or after the date of this Indenture and such Additional Amounts cannot (as certified in an Officers' Certificate to the Trustees) be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, then the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the affected Securities, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 10 days' nor more than 60 days' notice (such notice to be provided not more than 90 days before the next date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts, if a payment on the Securities were due on such date), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date). Notice of the Issuer's intent to redeem the affected Securities shall not be effective until such time as it delivers to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts because of an amendment to or change in law, treaty or regulation or other position as described in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(e)</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In connection with any tender offer for the Securities (including in connection with any Change of Control Offer or Net Proceeds Offer), if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not validly withdraw such Securities in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party Person approved in writing by the Issuer making such tender offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party Person will have the right, upon not less than 10 days' nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following any such purchase date, to redeem (with respect to the Issuer) or purchase (with respect to a third party Person) all Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price paid to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date or purchase date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Redemption Date or purchase date).

Section 3.7 *Mandatory Redemption*

The Issuer is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities; *provided*, *however*, that under certain circumstances the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase the Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>.<u> </u>

**ARTICLE IV** 

**COVENANTS** 

Section 4.1 *Payment of Principal, Premium, and Interest*

The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities that it shall promptly pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities, this Indenture. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be deemed due for all purposes under this Indenture whether such payments are due at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon required repurchase pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> or <u>4.13</u> hereof, upon declaration or otherwise. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date due if by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such date the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due.

------

The Issuer will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the rate then in effect on the Securities; it will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate as on overdue principal.

Section 4.2 *Reports and Financial Information*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will provide the Trustees, and the U.S. Trustee will deliver to all the Holders, the following information (collectively, the "*Financial Reports*"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) within 90 days of the end of each fiscal year, annual audited financial statements for such fiscal year
(along with customary comparative results) and (B) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, unaudited financial statements for the interim period as at, and for the period ending on, the end of
such fiscal quarter (along with comparative results for the corresponding interim period in the prior year), in each case, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" with
respect to the periods presented and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer's certified independent accountants; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) within 10 days after the occurrence of each event constituting a "material change" (as defined in
the Securities Act (Alberta)) that would have been required to be reported (pursuant to applicable rules and regulations in effect on the Issue Date) in a report under the Securities Act (Alberta) if the Issuer had been a "reporting
issuer" under the Securities Act (Alberta), a report containing substantially all of the information that would have been required to be contained (pursuant to the Securities Act (Alberta) and applicable rules and regulations thereunder) in
such report,

*provided*, *however*, that (x) Financial Reports shall be deemed to have been provided to the Trustees and the Holders once filed on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com or filed with the SEC on the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system ("*EDGAR*") and (y) Financial Reports will not be required to include any reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with respect to financial information reported pursuant to GAAP.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If and for so long as any Securities remain outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the U.S. Securities Act, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act (for so long as such information is required in order to permit resales of the Securities pursuant to Rule 144A).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Unless the Financial Reports are available on SEDAR, or on EDGAR, or on any successor system thereto, the Issuer will also maintain a website to which the beneficial holders of the Securities are given free access and on which, not later than the date by which the Financial Reports are required to be provided to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u>,<u> </u>such Financial Reports are made available. Making such Financial Reports so available shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u> that such Financial Reports be provided to the Trustees and delivered to the Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer is a "reporting issuer" (or its equivalent) required to file information with one or more securities regulators in Canada, no later than five Business Days after the date the annual and quarterly Financial Reports have been furnished pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)(i)</u>, the Issuer shall also hold a live quarterly conference call with the opportunity for participants to ask questions of management. No fewer than three Business Days prior to the date such conference call is to be held, the Issuer shall issue a press release (which release shall be immediately filed on SEDAR or any successor system thereto or, if the applicable Canadian securities regulators do not permit such filing, immediately provided to the Trustees and the Holders) announcing such quarterly conference call, which press release shall contain the time and the date of such conference call and direct the recipients thereof to contact an individual at the Issuer (for whom contact information shall be provided in such notice) to obtain information on how to access such quarterly conference call.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Trustees will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing or posting of such Financial Reports has occurred; delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustees is for informational purposes only and the Trustees' receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer's compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture (as to which each Trustee is entitled to rely on officer's certificates).

Section 4.3 *Limitations in Incurrence of Indebtedness*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); provided that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur additional Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), in each case, if, after giving effect thereto on a *pro forma* basis, (i) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default will have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a consequence of incurring the Indebtedness or entering into the transactions relating to such incurrence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u>, each of the following incurrences of Indebtedness shall be permitted ("*Permitted Indebtedness*"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Indebtedness of the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under any of the Credit Facilities in an
aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, including the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers' acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers' acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount
equal to the face amount thereof) not to exceed, as of any date of incurrence, the greater of (A) C$2,000 million and (B) 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow during the most recent four consecutive full fiscal
quarters

------

for which financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP are available (determined at the time of incurrence and after giving effect to the *pro forma* adjustments set forth in the definition of "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio"); *provided*, *however*, that the amount permitted to be incurred under Credit Facilities pursuant to clause (i)(B) above shall be increased to up to 4.0 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) in respect of Indebtedness incurred on the closing date of any Significant Acquisition (the "*Significant Acquisition Closing Date*") or within two Business Days of such Significant Acquisition Closing Date so long as the portion of any such incurred Indebtedness which exceeds 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) is incurred to finance, directly or indirectly, such Significant Acquisition (in which case such excess portion of the Indebtedness is referred to as an "*Incremental Acquisition Financing*"); and *provided, further*, that any Incremental Acquisition Financing that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs in reliance on the foregoing proviso shall be permanently repaid by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries under such Credit Facilities within 180 days after the Significant Acquisition Closing Date unless (and solely to the extent) that at the expiration of such 180 day period the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be permitted to incur the portion of the Incremental Acquisition Financing that remains outstanding at such time pursuant to clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Indebtedness represented by the Securities issued on the Issue Date and the Guarantees;

(iii) Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent outstanding on the Issue Date after
giving effect to the use of proceeds of the Securities, including without limitation the Existing Notes and the guarantees thereof (other than Indebtedness referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x) and (xii));

(iv) guarantees by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture; provided that in the event such Indebtedness that is being guaranteed is Subordinated Indebtedness, then the related guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or the Guarantees, as
the case may be;

(v) [ *Reserved*.]

Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xviii) of <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)</u> or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u>, the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item
of Indebtedness and may divide and classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described therein (except that Indebtedness incurred under the

------

Credit Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred under <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)(i)</u>), and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xviii) of <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(b)</u> (provided that at the time of reclassification it meets the criteria in such category or categories);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the
determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could have incurred such Indebtedness;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to
the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Indebtedness of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or
amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed to have been incurred by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
(or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>, <u> </u> the Issuer
shall be in Default of this this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>; provided that any Indebtedness of such Person that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon consummation of the transaction by which
such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) will be deemed to not be Indebtedness for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u>. <u> </u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian Dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian Dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed or first incurred (whichever yields the lowest Canadian Dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; *provided* that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

Issue Date of any such Indebtedness into or for Qualified Equity Interests (less the amount of any cash, or the Fair Market Value of any other property, distributed by the Issuer upon such conversion or exchange), *plus* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) in the case of the disposition or repayment of or return on any Investment that was treated as a Restricted

guarantee), an amount (to the extent not included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the lesser of (1) 100% of the aggregate amount received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in cash or other property (valued at the Fair Market Value thereof) as the return of capital with respect to such Investment and (2) the amount of such Investment that was treated as a Restricted Payment, in either case, less the cost of the disposition of such Investment and net of taxes, *plus*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) in the case of the release of any guarantee that was treated as a Restricted Payment made by the Issuer or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date, an amount equal to the amount of such guarantee that was treated as a Restricted Payment less any amount paid under such guarantee, *plus* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F) upon a Redesignation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, an amount (to the extent not
included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the lesser of (1) the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary immediately following such Redesignation, and (2) the aggregate amount
of the Issuer's Investments in such Subsidiary to the extent such Investments reduced the Restricted Payments Basket and were not previously repaid or otherwise reduced.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks *pari passu* in right of payment with the
Securities or a Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or a
Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

in each case, for so long as such obligation is secured by such Lien.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "*Increased Amount*" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection

------

with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.5</u>, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (i) through (xxxi) of the definition of "Permitted Liens," the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify and redivide any Lien described in clauses (i) through (xxxi) of the definition of "Permitted Liens" (*provided* that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Shares in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends
or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Equity Interests);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) make loans or advances, or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed, to the Issuer or any other Restricted
Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to other Indebtedness or obligations incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Section 4.6(a)</u> will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

as a whole, are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, not materially more restrictive than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u> on the Issue Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was amalgamated or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable;

Subsidiary pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date or (B) any such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness is not expected, as determined by the Issuer in good faith, to result in a failure by the Issuer to be able

Section 4.7 *Asset Sales*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Sale; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) at least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, together with the consideration received in all other Asset Sales by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; for the
purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)(ii)</u> only, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the amount (without duplication) of any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer's most recent consolidated
balance sheet, of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Securities or any Guarantee) that are assumed or forgiven by the transferee of any such assets
pursuant to a novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary against further liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount of any securities, notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days
after such Asset Sale converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received);

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Fair Market Value of (1) any assets (other than securities) received by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to be used by it in a Permitted Business, (2) Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
acquisition of such Person by the Issuer or (3) a combination of (1) and (2); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (d) that is at that time
outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of the Issuer's Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)</u>, the 75% limitation referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(a)(ii)</u> shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) repay, redeem or otherwise retire (A) obligations under the Credit Agreement, (B) Indebtedness (other
than Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor and/or (C) Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien (in each case other than any
Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) and, if the obligations repaid are in respect of revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently
reduce commitments with respect thereto;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) repay, redeem or otherwise retire obligations under other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary
(in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); *provided* that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce obligations
under the Securities as provided under <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u>, through open market

------

purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(g)</u> for a Net Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Securities at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Securities that would otherwise be prepaid; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) make any capital expenditure or otherwise invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in
the purchase of assets (other than securities and excluding working capital or current assets for the avoidance of doubt) to be used by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity
Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the
consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of Net Available Proceeds are not invested or reinvested as contemplated by clause (iii) above within 365 days of receipt thereof, but the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has, within 365 days of receipt of such Net Available Proceeds, entered into a binding contractual commitment upon customary conditions (including a purchase agreement or purchase order) to make such investments, then the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have invested such Net Available Proceeds in accordance with clause (iii) above; *provided* that, in the event and to the extent such investment shall not be completed in whole or in part in accordance with such binding contractual commitment within 180 days after entering into such binding contractual commitment, such binding contractual commitment shall have been terminated in whole or in part, such investment shall be abandoned in whole or in part, or such Net Available Proceeds are not otherwise applied to fund such investment in whole or in part, then such Net Available Proceeds (or balance of Net Available Proceeds related to the non-completed portion of a binding contractual commitment in the event of a partial completion, termination, abandonment or application) shall constitute Net Available Proceeds from and after the date of such cancellation or termination. The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(d)</u> will constitute "*Excess Proceeds*."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Pending the final application of any Net Available Proceeds pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary holding such Net Available Proceeds may apply such Net Available Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

(f) (i) On the 366th day after an Asset Sale (or, at the Issuer's option, an earlier date
or any later date contemplated by paragraph (d) above), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds C$100 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase or redeem (a "*Net Proceeds Offer*") from all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to
purchase or redeem such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase

------

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; or redeem the maximum principal amount of Securities, and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Net Proceeds Offer applies that may be purchased or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of US$2,000 or integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. |
|  | (ii) Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make an Net Proceeds Offer as described in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(g)(i)</u>, the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of Applicable Law, a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed. |
| (g) | (i) The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by Applicable Law (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Period*"). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the "*Net Proceeds Purchase Date*"), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Amount*") or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer. |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related Interest Payment
Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Securities pursuant to the Net
Proceeds Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a
pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer,
or if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Securities so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum denominations of US$2,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000
in excess thereof. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that such Securities or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> 

------

and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Securities or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Security, and the U.S. Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers' Certificate from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Security to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Security surrendered; *provided* that each such new Security will be in a minimum denomination in a principal amount of US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Security not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> and/or <u>Article V</u> and not by the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>:<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an
election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the U.S. Exchange Act and any other Applicable Laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that

------

the provisions of any Applicable Laws and regulations conflict with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>, the Issuer shall comply with such Applicable Laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> by virtue of such compliance.

Section 4.8 *Transactions with Affiliates*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (an "*Affiliate Transaction*") involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of C$25.0 million, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that would reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm's length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of C$75 million, an Officer
of the Issuer has determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of C$100 million, a
resolution has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The restrictions in <u>Section</u> <u>4.8(a)</u> shall not apply to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) transactions exclusively between or among (A) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or
(B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) director, trustee, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including pursuant
to any employment agreement or any retirement, health, stock option or other benefit plan), payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees of the Issuer and indemnification arrangements, in each case, as reasonably determined in good
faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors or senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Permitted Investments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>4.4</u>; <u> </u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a
whole, is not, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, materially more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an
Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an Equity Interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) (A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or proceeds therefrom or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Guarantees by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the performance obligations of Unrestricted
Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (excluding guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustees a
letter from a Canadian or U.S. nationally recognized accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of <u>Section</u> <u>4.8(a)(i)</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Financing.

Section 4.9 *Additional Subsidiary Guarantees*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any of Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor incurs or guarantees any Triggering Indebtedness, then the Issuer shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustees within 30 Business Days a supplemental
indenture in substantially the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit D</u>, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) that such Guarantee has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary.

Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer may elect to have any other Restricted Subsidiary or parent entity to issue a Guarantee and become a Guarantor by complying with <u>Section</u> <u>4.9(a)</u>.<u> </u>

Section 4.10 *Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.20(b)</u>, designate any Subsidiary (including any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a "*Designation*"), *provided* that:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation
(unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Issuer would be permitted to make, at the time of such Designation, (A) a Permitted Investment and/or
(B) an Investment pursuant to clause (b) below in an aggregate amount (the "*Designation Amount*") equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on the date such Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any
agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or
the Restricted Subsidiary than those that would reasonably be expected to be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) such Subsidiary has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any
Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless such guarantee is released concurrent with such Designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For purposes of any Designation, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of "Investment." Such Designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a "*Redesignation*") only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such Redesignation;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) all Liens, Indebtedness and Investments of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such
Redesignation would, if incurred or made at such time, have been permitted to be incurred or made for all purposes of this Indenture.

Section 4.11 *Further Instruments and Acts*

Upon request by the Trustees, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.

------

Section 4.12 *Business Activities*

The Issuer will engage, and will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to engage, only in businesses that, when considered together as a single enterprise, are primarily the Permitted Business.

Section 4.13 *Offer to Purchase Securities upon Change of Control*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.13(h)</u>, upon the occurrence of any Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Securities as described under <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u>, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer purchase all or any portion (in minimum denominations equal to US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder's Securities for a cash price (the "*Change of Control Purchase Price*") equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No later than 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustees, a notice:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) offering to purchase, pursuant to the offer described in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13(b)</u> (the
" *Change of Control Offer* "), on a date specified in such notice, which shall be a Business Day not earlier than 10 days, nor, unless such Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event,
later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the "*Change of Control Payment Date* "), and for the Change of Control Purchase Price, all Securities properly tendered by such Holder pursuant to such Change of Control
Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) describing the procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that Holders must
follow to accept the Change of Control Offer.

integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the U.S. Trustee the Securities accepted together with an Officers'

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Purchase Price for such Securities, with such payment to be made through the facilities of the Depositary for all Global Securities, and the U.S. Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities so tendered, if any; *provided* that each such new Security will be in a minimum denomination in a principal amount of US$2,000 or integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) A Change of Control Offer will be required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or for such longer period as is required by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Issuer will comply with Applicable Laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Applicable Laws and regulations conflict with the requirements of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>, the Issuer shall comply with such Applicable Laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> by virtue of such compliance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer will be the surviving or continuing Person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Person (if other than the Issuer) formed by or surviving or continuing from such amalgamation,

operation of law or supplemental indenture, all of the obligations of the Issuer under the Securities and this Indenture; provided, that if the Successor is not a corporation, a Restricted Subsidiary that is a corporation expressly assumes as co-obligor all of the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Securities pursuant to a supplemental indenture to this Indenture executed and delivered to the Trustees (for greater certainty, the
Issuer shall be considered to be the Successor in the event of a statutory amalgamation governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof of the Issuer with any other Restricted Subsidiary);

set forth in clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, (A) the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, could incur
C$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u> or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio for the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or
equal to such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) promptly after consummation of such transaction, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustees an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or transfer and such agreement and/or supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture;

For purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(a)</u>, any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Issuer immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to have been incurred in connection with such transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the U.S. Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the
Issuer, the Holders and

the U.S. Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts
of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) and the Issuer has paid all sums owing to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>7.6</u> hereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the U.S. Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Securities
(or any of them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any Event of Default if, in the U.S. Trustee's opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor,
and in such event to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences;

------

*provided* that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>6.2(a)</u>, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of Default specified in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(e)</u> shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the U.S. Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Trustees may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Securities.

Section 6.3 *Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer covenants that if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due
and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any on) any Security at the Stated Maturity
thereof and such default continues for a period of three Business Days,

the Issuer will, upon demand of the U.S. Trustee, pay to the U.S. Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the U.S. Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor (including the Guarantors, if any) upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such

------

appropriate judicial proceedings as the U.S. Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 6.4 *Trustee May File Proofs of Claim*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In case of any pending receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer and its debts or any other obligor upon the Securities (including the Guarantors, if any), and their debts or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors, the U.S. Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the U.S. Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal (and premium, if any) or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the U.S. Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same, and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make
such payments to the U.S. Trustee and, in the event that the U.S. Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the U.S. Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the U.S. Trustee hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the U.S. Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the U.S. Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.5 *Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities*

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the U.S. Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the U.S. Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

------

Section 6.6 *Application of Monies by Trustee*

Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, any money collected by the U.S. Trustee pursuant to this <u>Article VI</u> shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the U.S. Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) first, in payment or in reimbursement to the U.S. Trustee of its reasonable compensation, costs, charges, expenses, borrowings, advances, indemnity amounts or other monies furnished or provided by or at the instance of the U.S. Trustee in or about the execution of its trusts under, or otherwise in relation to, this Indenture, with interest thereon as herein provided;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) second, but subject as hereinafter in this <u>Section</u> <u>6.6</u> provided, in payment, ratably and proportionately to the Holders, of the principal of and premium (if any) and accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default on the Securities which shall then be outstanding in the priority of principal first and then premium and then accrued and unpaid interest and interest on amounts in default; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) third, in payment of the surplus, if any, of such monies to the Issuer or its assigns and/or the Guarantors, as the case may be;

*provided, however,* that no payment shall be made pursuant to clause (ii) in respect of the principal, premium or interest on any Securities held, directly or indirectly, by or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than any Securities pledged for value and in good faith to a Person other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer but only to the extent of such Person's interest therein), except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal, premium (if any) and interest (if any) on all Securities which are not so held.

Section 6.7 *No Suits by Holders*

Except to enforce payment of the principal of, and premium (if any) or interest on any Security (after giving effect to any applicable grace period specified therefor in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(a)</u>), no Holder shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a liquidator, trustee or receiver or for a receiving order under any Bankruptcy Laws or to have the Issuer or any Guarantor wound up or to file or prove a claim in any liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Holder gives the U.S. Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities make a written
request to the Trustees to pursue the remedy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustees indemnity satisfactory to the Trustees against any costs, liability
or expense;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Trustees do not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) during such 60 day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities do not give the Trustees a direction that is inconsistent with the request;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders.

Section 6.8 *Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest*

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Holder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities held by such Holder on the applicable Maturity date and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.9 *Restoration of Rights and Remedies*

If the U.S. Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the U.S. Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantors (if any), the U.S. Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the U.S. Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.10 *Rights and Remedies Cumulative*

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the U.S. Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11 *Delay or Omission Not Waiver*

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

------

Section 6.12 *Direction by Holders*

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the U.S. Trustee. However, subject to Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u>, the U.S. Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the U.S. Trustee in personal liability, or that the U.S. Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Securities not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Securities.

Section 6.13 *Notice of Event of Default*

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the U.S. Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Canadian Trustee and the Holders, *provided* that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the U.S. Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, the U.S. Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the U.S. Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.

Section 6.14 *Undertaking for Costs*

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustees for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as a Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant.

Section 6.15 *Judgment Against the Issuer*

The Issuer covenants and agrees with the U.S. Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Holders, judgment may be rendered against it in favor of the Holders or in favor of the U.S. Trustee, as trustee for the Holders, for any amount which may remain due in respect of the Securities and premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

**ARTICLE VII** 

**TRUSTEE** 

Section 7.1 *Duties of U.S. Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee, once it becomes aware of such Event of Default, shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the U.S. Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the U.S. Trustee; and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the U.S. Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the U.S. Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the U.S. Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The U.S. Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) this <u>Section</u> <u>7.1(c)</u> does not limit the effect of <u>Section</u> <u>7.1(b)</u> hereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of the
U.S. Trustee unless it is proved that the U.S. Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in
accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>6.12</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the U.S. Trustee is subject to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the U.S. Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate security or indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The permissive authorizations, entitlements, powers and rights (including the right to request that the Issuer take an action or deliver a document and the exercise of remedies following an Event of Default) granted to the U.S. Trustee herein shall not be construed as duties.

Section 7.2 *Rights of Trustees.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Trustees may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustees need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Before either of the Trustees acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. Neither of the Trustees shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers' Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Trustees may act through their respective attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Neither of the Trustees shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Trustees may consult with their respective counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Except for (i) a default under <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(a)</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(b)</u> hereof, or (ii) any other event of which a Trustee has actual knowledge and which event, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture, the Trustees shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless specifically notified in writing of such event by the Issuer or by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities, and such notice is received at the Corporate Trust Offices of the Trustees and references the Securities and this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) In no event shall a Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether such Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) A Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to such Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to such Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities, exculpations and benefits given to each of the Trustees, including, without limitation, its right to be compensated and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, such Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, to the other Trustee, the Agents and to each other agent, custodian and Person employed to act hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Trustees shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of their respective powers and duties hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The Issuer will be responsible for making calculations called for under the Securities, including but not limited to determination of redemption price, premium, if any, and any other amounts payable on the Securities. The Issuer will make the calculations in good

------

faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding on the Holders of the Securities. The Issuer will provide a schedule of its calculations to the Trustees when applicable, and the Trustees are entitled to rely conclusively on the accuracy of the Issuer's calculations without independent verification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) The Trustees shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but either Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if a Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuer and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

Section 7.3 *Individual Rights of U.S. Trustee*

The U.S. Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not U.S. Trustee. However, in the event that the U.S. Trustee acquires any conflicting interest after a Default has occurred and is continuing, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as U.S. Trustee or resign. The U.S. Trustee is also subject to <u>Sections 7.10</u> and <u>7.11</u> hereof.

Section 7.4 *U.S. Trustee's Disclaimer*

The U.S. Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Securities, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent (other than itself as Paying Agent), and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the U.S. Trustee's certificate of authentication. Under no circumstances shall the U.S. Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Securities.

Section 7.5 *Notice of Defaults*

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer of the U.S. Trustee has knowledge thereof as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>7.2(f)</u>, the U.S. Trustee shall send to each Holder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default relating to payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security (including payments pursuant to the redemption or required repurchase provisions of such Security), the U.S. Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its Board of Directors, the executive committee of its Board of Directors or a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

Section 7.6 *Compensation and Indemnity*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall pay to each of the Trustees from time to time, and the Trustees shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for its services hereunder and under the Securities

------

as the Issuer and the Trustees shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustees' compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse each of the Trustees, as applicable, upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel retained by the Trustees in connection with the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel or otherwise, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustees' respective agents and counsel. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each of the Trustees (in its individual and trustee capacities) and its respective officers, directors and agents from and against any and all loss, liability, claims, action, suit, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and the trusts thereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Securities, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>) and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or otherwise). Each Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity of which it has received written notice. Failure by either of the Trustees, as applicable, to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim, and the Trustees may each have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer is not required to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability claim, again, suit, cost or expense incurred by the either of the Trustees through the Trustees' respective own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To secure the Issuer's payment obligations in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>, the Trustees shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustees other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of, premium (if any) and interest on particular Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer's obligations pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of any Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustees under Applicable Law, when the U.S. Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> hereof with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.7 *Replacement of Trustees*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities may remove a Trustee by so notifying such Trustee and the Issuer and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer may remove a Trustee if: (i) such Trustee fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof; (ii) such Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; (iii) a custodian or other public officer takes charge of such Trustee or its property; or (iv) such Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

------

For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any Defeased Covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, such Securities and the obligations of the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby.

in U.S. Dollars, non-callable Government Securities or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of
independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustees, to pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the outstanding Securities on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as
the case may be,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel in the

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel in
the United States reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Covenant Defeasance and will be

Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee and qualified to practice in Canada or a ruling from Canada Revenue Agency to the effect that Holders of the outstanding Securities who are not resident in Canada should not recognize
income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, and should be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax on
the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, had not occurred,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either (A) on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings) or (B) insofar as Defaults from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on

Canada pursuant to the provisions of the *Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act,* R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3, as amended,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not
made by it with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other of its creditors or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other of its creditors or others, and

The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by: (i) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any Indenture Obligation; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment, modification or supplement of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture (other than this <u>Article X</u>), the Securities or any other agreement; (iv) the release of security, if any, held by any Holder or either of the Trustees for the Indenture Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Indenture Obligations; (vi) any change in the ownership of the Issuer; or (vii) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of law or equity, except for payment of the Securities in full.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein constitute a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waive any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or either of the Trustees to security, if any, held for payment of the Indenture Obligations.

The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (except to the extent provided in <u>Section</u> 

------

 <u>10.2</u> hereof), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Indenture Obligations or otherwise.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Indenture Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or either of the Trustees upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or either of the Trustees has at law or in equity against the Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any Indenture Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, required repurchase, acceleration or otherwise, the Guarantors hereby promise to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustees, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustees an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Indenture Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Indenture Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary Indenture Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders and the Trustees.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustees, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Indenture Obligations may be accelerated as provided in <u>Article VI</u> for the purposes of the Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Indenture Obligations, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Indenture Obligations as provided in <u>Article VI</u>, such Indenture Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, also agree to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustees or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

Section 10.2 *Limitation on Liability*

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities, each Holder, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustees, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this <u>Article X</u>, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

------

Section 10.3 *Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee*

The execution by each Guarantor of this Indenture (or a Supplemental Indenture) evidences the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Security. The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor.

The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

In the event that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date, the Issuer will comply with the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.9</u> hereof.

Section 10.4 *Successors and Assigns*

Except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof, this <u>Article X</u> shall be binding upon the Guarantors and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustees and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights in accordance with the terms of this Indenture by any Holder or the Trustees, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees.

Section 10.5 *No Waiver*

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustees or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this <u>Article X</u> shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustees and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this <u>Article X</u> at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Section 10.6 *Right of Contribution*

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor's right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this <u>Article X</u>. The provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.6</u> shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Trustees and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustees and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 10.7 *No Subrogation*

Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Guarantors hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to exercise any rights of subrogation it may have to any of the rights of either of the Trustees or any Holder against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by either of the Trustees or any Holder for the payment of the Indenture Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to

------

seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustees and the Holders by the Issuer on account of the Indenture Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Indenture Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustees and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustees in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustees, if required), to be applied against the Indenture Obligations.

Section 10.8 *Modification*

No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this <u>Article X</u>, nor the consent to any departure by the Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with <u>Article IX</u> hereof. No notice to or demand on the Guarantors in any case shall entitle the Guarantors to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Section 10.9 *Release of Guarantee*

A Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under its Guarantee and its obligations under this Indenture after the occurrence of any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) (i) any sale, exchange or transfer (by amalgamation, merger,

consolidation or otherwise) of the Equity Interests of such Guarantor after which such Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, which sale, exchange or transfer does not violate the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the proper Designation of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if such Guarantor ceases to guarantee or to be liable for any Triggering Indebtedness, except if the release or
discharge thereof results from a demand for payment under such guarantee; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as provided under <u>Article VIII</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Issuer delivering to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of

Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the release of such Guarantor's Guarantee have been complied with.

Upon delivery to the Trustees the documents required by <u>Section</u> <u>10.9(b)</u>, the Trustees shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer in writing in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee.

Section 11.8 *Governing Law*

THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 11.9 *Waiver of Jury Trial*

THE PARTIES HERETO (AND EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A SECURITY) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO. EACH PARTY (AND EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A SECURITY) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO ARE ENTERING INTO THIS INDENTURE IN RELIANCE UPON SUCH WAIVER.

Section 11.10 *Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Prescription*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each party to this Indenture or the Securities hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of (i) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or of any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) and (ii) the courts of its own corporate domicile, in each case with all applicable courts of appeal therefrom, with respect to actions brought against it as a defendant, for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the Securities or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; *provided* that nothing herein

------

shall be deemed to limit the ability of any party to this Indenture or the Securities to bring suit in any other permissible jurisdiction. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court, any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and any objection based on place of residence or domicile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors irrevocably appoints Corporation Service Company, with address at 1180 Avenue of the Americas, Suite 210, New York, New York 10036, United States, as its authorized agent on which any and all legal process may be served in any such action, suit or proceeding brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or in any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) in connection with this Indenture or the Securities. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that service of process in respect of it upon such agent, together with written notice of such service sent to it in the manner provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, shall be deemed to be effective service of process upon it in any such action, suit or proceeding. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that the failure of such agent to give notice to it of any such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any action, suit or proceeding based thereon. If for any reason such agent shall cease to be available to act as such (including by reason of the failure of such agent to maintain an office in New York City), the Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees promptly to designate a new agent in New York City, on the terms and for the purposes of this Section. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the U.S. Trustee to serve any such legal process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law or to obtain jurisdiction over the Issuer or bring actions, suits or proceedings against it in such other jurisdictions, and in such manner, as may be permitted by Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors will waive any immunity (including sovereign immunity), to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any such suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Claims against the Issuer or any Guarantor for the payment of principal or interest and Additional Amounts in respect of the Securities or the Guarantee, as the case may be, will be prescribed unless made within six years of the due date for payment of such principal or interest and Additional Amounts.

Section 11.11 *Force Majeure*

------

Section 11.12 *No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Shareholders*

No director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Issuer, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Issuer is a trustee or carrier shall have any liability for any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Securities or this Indenture or any Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities and the Guarantees. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under applicable securities laws.

Section 11.13 *Immunity*

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby waives any claim it may have to immunity (whether sovereign or otherwise), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

Section 11.14 *Conversion of Currency*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due under this Indenture to the Holder from another currency to U.S. Dollars, the Issuer and each Guarantor agree, and each Holder by holding a Security will be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase U.S. Dollars with such other currency in the State of New York on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "*judgment currency*") other than U.S. Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or a Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in such judgment currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. Dollars with the judgment currency. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee in the judgment currency (as determined in the manner set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.14(a)</u>), as the case may be, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Holder and the Trustee, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, will pay the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor such excess; *provided* that such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a Default under the Securities or this Indenture has occurred and is continuing or if the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have failed to pay any Holder any amounts then due and payable under such Security or this Indenture, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder or such Trustee to such obligations.

Section 11.15 *Successors*

All agreements of the Issuer and (except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof) the Guarantors in this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustees in this Indenture shall bind their respective successors.

------

Section 11.16 *Multiple Originals; Counterparts*

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. This Indenture may be executed in multiple counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

Section 11.17 *Severability*

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 11.18 *Table of Contents; Headings*

The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 11.19 *No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements*

This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

Section 11.20 *Acts of Holders*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and may be given or obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, outstanding Securities; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the U.S. Trustee, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Canadian Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "*Act*" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustees and the Issuer if made in the manner provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.20</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such witness, notary

------

or officer the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the U.S. Trustee deems sufficient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.18</u>, the principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Holder, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the register of the Securities maintained by the Registrar as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders of the Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Issuer may, at their option, by or pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Issuer shall have no obligation to do so. Such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith or the date of the most recent list of Holders forwarded to the U.S. Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.6</u> and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the then outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the then outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; *provided* that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent (to an amendment hereof or otherwise), waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration or transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustees or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. After any amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder unless it makes a change described in clauses (a) through (j) of <u>Section</u> <u>9.2</u>, in which case the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so itself with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

For purposes of this Indenture, any action by the Holders which may be taken in writing may be taken by electronic means or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee.

------

Section 11.21 *USA PATRIOT Act*

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the U.S. Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The Issuer agrees that it will provide the U.S. Trustee with information about the Issuer as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably request in order for the U.S. Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.

Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; *provided* that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Security is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the rate then in effect; it will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate as on overdue principal. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*2. Additional Amounts*. The Issuer will pay to the Holders such Additional Amounts as may become payable under <u>Section</u> <u>2.6</u> of the Indenture.

The Issuer will pay interest on the Securities (except Defaulted Interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business on the April 15 and October 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Securities are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.12</u> of the Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest. The Securities will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed by such Paying Agent to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; *provided* that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, and premium, if any, on all Global Securities and all other Securities, the Holders of which hold at least US$5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Securities and have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer and the Paying Agent for an account in the U.S. Such payment will be in U.S. Dollars.

The Issuer may provide in such Redemption Notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer's obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Following certain tender offers, the Issuer may redeem all of the Securities that remain outstanding, at the redemption price and subject to the terms and conditions, set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(f)</u> of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph 5 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of <u>Article III</u> of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) In addition, the Securities are subject to redemption in certain circumstances pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(e)</u> of the Indenture.

The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Security or portion of a Security selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Securities for a period of 15 days before the day of any selection of Securities to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*7. Persons Deemed Owners*. The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*8. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver*. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities, and any existing Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Securities may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities.

Each Global Security shall represent the amount of outstanding Securities specified therein, and each Global Security shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Definitive Securities*. Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.1</u>, any issuance of Definitive Securities shall be at the Issuer's discretion, except in the circumstances set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>2.7(a)</u> hereof.

Section 2.2 *Execution and Authentication*

An Officer shall sign the Securities for the Issuer by manual, facsimile or electronically transmitted signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the U.S. Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the U.S. Trustee manually authenticates the Security. The signature of the U.S. Trustee on a Security shall be conclusive evidence that such Security has been duly and validly authenticated and issued under this Indenture.

The U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver: (i) Initial Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of US$500,000,000 on the Issue Date, and (ii) if and when issued, Additional Securities (which may be issued in either a registered or a private offering under the U.S. Securities Act), in each case upon a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer (each, an "*Authentication Order*"). Such order shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated and whether the Securities are to be in global or definitive form and whether they are to bear the Private Placement Legend. the Issuer may issue Additional Securities under this Indenture subsequent to the Issue Date.

The U.S. Trustee may appoint an agent (the "*Authenticating Agent*") reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Securities whenever the U.S. Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the U.S. Trustee includes authentication by such agent.

Section 2.3 *Registrar and Paying Agent*

The Issuer shall at all times maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the "*Registrar*"), and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the "*Paying Agent*"). The Securities will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed by such Paying Agent to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; *provided* that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, and premium, if any, on all Global Securities and all other Securities, the Holders of which hold at least US$5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Securities and have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer and the Paying Agent for an account in the U.S. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar, and the term "Paying Agent" includes any such additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice to any Holder.

------

The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, subject to the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>4.15</u>. Any Paying Agent or Registrar may resign as such upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Issuer and the Trustees; upon resignation of any Paying Agent or Registrar, the Issuer shall appoint a successor Paying Agent or Registrar, as the case may be, complying with the requirements of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u>, no later than 30 days thereafter and shall provide notice to the Trustees of such successor Paying Agent or Registrar.

If at any time there shall be Securities outstanding that are not Global Securities and there shall be no Paying Agent with an office or agency in the City of New York, State of New York, where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, the Issuer shall forthwith designate such a Paying Agent in order that the Securities shall at all times be payable in the City of New York, the State of New York. The Issuer initially appoints the U.S. Trustee to act as Depositary Custodian with respect to the Global Securities. The Trustees and each Agent are hereby authorized to act in accordance with Applicable Procedures with respect to any Global Security.

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company ("*DTC*") to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Securities.

The Issuer initially appoints Computershare Trust Company, N.A. as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Securities.

Section 2.4 *Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust*

By at least 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Security is due and payable, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest when due. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent (other than the U.S. Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the U.S. Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest (if any) on the Securities and shall notify the U.S. Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the U.S. Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the U.S. Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.4</u>, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the U.S. Trustee.

Section 2.5 *Holder Lists*

The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the U.S. Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the U.S. Trustee, in writing at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the U.S. Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders.

Section 2.6 *Additional Amounts*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All payments made to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Security by or on behalf of the Issuer under or with respect to the Securities or by or on behalf of any Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee, will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Relevant Taxing Authority, unless required by law or the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Issuer or a Guarantor is obligated to withhold or deduct any amount on account of taxes imposed by any Relevant Taxing Authority from any payment made to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Security with respect to the Securities, the Issuer or such Guarantor will:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with the Applicable
Law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) subject to the limitations below, pay to each Holder or beneficial owner of a Security, as additional interest,
such additional amounts ()"*Additional Amounts*") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder or beneficial owner of a Security (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be
less than the amount such Holder or beneficial owner of a Security would have received if such taxes had not been withheld or deducted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) furnish to the Trustees for the benefit of the Holders, within 60 days after the date payment of any taxes are
due pursuant to Applicable Law, certified copies of an official receipt of the Relevant Taxing Authority for all amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to Applicable Law, or if such receipts are not reasonably obtainable, other evidence of payment by
the Issuer or such Guarantor of those taxes; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) at least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable (or, if the obligation to pay
any Additional Amounts does not arise more than 20 days prior to the applicable payment date, reasonably promptly after such obligation arises), deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Additional
Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustees may request to enable the U.S. Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>2.6(a)</u>, neither the Issuer nor a Guarantor will pay Additional Amounts with respect to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Canadian taxes imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a Holder or beneficial
owner with which the Issuer, such Guarantor or any transferee to whom a Security is assigned or otherwise transferred, does not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada)) at the time of making such payment;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any Canadian taxes imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a "specified non-resident shareholder" of the Issuer or such Guarantor or a non-resident person who does not deal at arm's length with a specified shareholder of the Issuer or
such Guarantor, both for the purposes of subsection 18(5) of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any Canadian taxes imposed because the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is an entity in respect of
which the Issuer or such Guarantor is a "specified entity" (as defined in the *Income Tax Act* (Canada));

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any taxes imposed as a result of the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Security (or a fiduciary, settlor,
beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant Holder, if the relevant Holder is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) being a resident, domicile or national
of, or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some present or former actual or deemed connection with, the Relevant Taxing Authority otherwise than by the mere acquisition,
holding, disposition or enforcement of the Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the
Securities to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and only if such Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to
provide such form or document, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to
enable the Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Securities or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be
delivered within 30 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any estate, inheritance, gift, wealth or net worth, sales, goods and services, harmonized sales, transfer,
capital gains, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding from
payments under or with respect to the Securities (other than taxes payable pursuant to Regulation 803 of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada), or any similar successor provision);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) any tax to the extent such tax was imposed as a result of the beneficiary of the payment not presenting the
Security for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after the date on which such payment on such Security became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to
the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settler with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner
who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any taxes imposed as a result of any payment being made to a Person other than the sole beneficial owner of
such payment to the extent that such taxes would not have been imposed on such beneficial owner if the beneficial owner had been the Holder of the applicable Security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) that is imposed under FATCA; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xii) any combination of (i) through (xi).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, purchase price, redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Security, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

A Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. Owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities shall not be entitled to receive Definitive Securities unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the 144A Global Security, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof, and if such transfer occurs prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, then the transferee must hold such beneficial interest through either Euroclear or Clearstream (as Indirect Participants in the Depositary).

"THE SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) EVIDENCED HEREBY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SECTION 5 OF THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE SELLER MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER. THE HOLDER OF THE SECURITY

------

EVIDENCED HEREBY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ISSUER THAT (A) SUCH SECURITY MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (1)(a) TO A PERSON WHO IS REASONABLY BELIEVED TO BE A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (b) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (c) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO A NON-U.S. PERSON IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 904 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (d) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (AND BASED UPON AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IF THE ISSUER SO REQUESTS), (2) TO THE ISSUER OR (3) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION, AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER FROM IT OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN CLAUSE (A) ABOVE. NO REPRESENTATION CAN BE MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 FOR RESALE OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Global Security or Definitive

Security issued pursuant to subparagraph (b)(4), (c)(2), (c)(3), (d)(2), (d)(3), (e)(2) or (e)(3) of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall not bear the Private Placement Legend. The Issuer, acting in its discretion, may remove the Private Placement Legend from any Restricted Security at any time on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Restricted Security. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Issuer may effect such removal by issuing and delivering, in exchange for such Restricted Security, an Unrestricted Security, registered to the same Holder and in an equal principal amount, and, notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u>, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer given at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed date of exchange specified therein (which shall be no earlier than the Resale Restriction Termination Date), the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Unrestricted Security as directed in such order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2) Global Security Legend*. Each Global Security shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

------

UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR SECURITIES IN DEFINITIVE FORM, THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY. UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK) ("DTC") TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN."

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) The Issuer, acting in its discretion, may (i) issue any Security under this Indenture (whether upon initial issuance or in exchange for any previously issued Security) without requiring such Security to bear the Canadian Legend or (ii) remove the Canadian Legend from any outstanding Security, in each case, at any time (including at any time when the Canadian Legend is not, or is no longer, required under Canadian Securities Laws as a condition to the availability of any resale exemption).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(g) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Securities*. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Security have been exchanged for Definitive Securities or a particular Global Security has been redeemed, repurchased or cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Security shall be returned to or retained and cancelled by the U.S. Trustee in accordance with

------

 <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security or for Definitive Securities, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the U.S. Trustee or by the Securities Custodian at the direction of the U.S. Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security, such other Global Security shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the U.S. Trustee or by the Securities Custodian at the direction of the U.S. Trustee to reflect such increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(h) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof or at the Registrar's request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security or to a Holder of a Definitive Security for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge or other fee required by law and payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to <u>Sections 2.10</u>, <u>3.2</u>, <u>3.6</u>, <u>4.7</u> and <u>4.13</u> hereof).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) All Global Securities and Definitive Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Securities or Definitive Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Securities or Definitive Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) None of the Issuer, the Trustees or the Registrar shall be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities during a period of 15 days before the day of any selection of Securities for redemption under <u>Section</u> <u>3.2</u> hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Securities so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Security between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Issuer, each Guarantor, the Trustees, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, interest and premium (if any) on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Trustees, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) The U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof and in accordance with the other provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.7</u> to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) The Trustees shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of optional redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Securities. The Trustees shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under Applicable Law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or other beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither the Trustees nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

Section 2.8 *Replacement Securities*

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar, or the Issuer and the Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Issuer will issue and the U.S. Trustee, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer conforming to <u>Section</u> <u>2.2</u> hereof, will authenticate a replacement Security if the Registrar's and the Issuer's reasonable requirements are met. If required by the Registrar or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Registrar, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the U.S. Trustee, the Registrar, any other Agent and any Authenticating Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced.

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder, *provided* it is held by a protected purchaser within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u>, rather than authenticating and delivering a replacement Security for a mutilated, destroyed, loss or stolen Security which has been redeemed or the principal of which has matured, the Issuer or the Paying Agent may make payment of the amount due on such security to the Holder upon receipt of the above-described indemnity bond.

------

Section 2.9 *Outstanding Securities*

The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the U.S. Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the U.S. Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.9</u> as not outstanding. Except as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.6</u> hereof, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.8</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the U.S. Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.10 *Temporary Securities*

Until Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Holders of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a holder of Definitive Securities.

Section 2.11 *Cancellation*

The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the U.S. Trustee or any Registrar for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the U.S. Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The U.S. Trustee or the Registrar (and no one else) shall cancel and dispose (subject to the record retention requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation in accordance with its retention policy then in effect. The Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the U.S. Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation.

Section 2.12 *Defaulted Interest*

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest ("*Defaulted Interest*") on the Securities, the Issuer shall pay Defaulted Interest (as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.1</u>) in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay the Defaulted Interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed (or upon the Issuer's failure to do so the U.S. Trustee shall fix pursuant to a written instruction of Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities) any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the U.S. Trustee which

------

special record date shall not be less than 10 days prior to the payment date for such Defaulted Interest and the Issuer, or at the Issuer's request, the U.S. Trustee, shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of Defaulted Interest to be paid. The Issuer shall notify the Trustees in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the U.S. Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the U.S. Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.12</u>.<u> </u>

Section 2.13 *CUSIP Numbers*

The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP," "ISIN" or similar numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the U.S. Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; *provided*, *however*, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustees in writing of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

**ARTICLE III** 

**REDEMPTION** 

Section 3.1 *Notices to U.S. Trustee*

If the Issuer elects to redeem Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6</u> hereof, it shall notify the U.S. Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed.

The Issuer shall give each notice to the U.S. Trustee and the Registrar provided for in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.1</u> at least three Business Days before the date of giving notice of the redemption pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.3</u>, unless the U.S. Trustee consents to a shorter period. If such redemption is to be effected pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(f)</u>, then such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers' Certificate to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions therein. If fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Issuer and set forth in the related notice given to the U.S. Trustee, which record date shall be not less than 10 days after the date of such notice.

Section 3.2 *Partial Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as follows:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the Securities are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange on which such Securities are listed; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the Securities are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or based on a
method in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Trustees (or, in the case of Global Securities, based on a method in accordance with the procedures of DTC) unless otherwise required by Applicable Law or depository requirements,

*provided* that if less than all the Securities are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u>, the U.S. Trustee will select Securities for redemption as described in clause (ii) unless that method is otherwise prohibited. Subject to the foregoing, Securities or portions of Securities the U.S. Trustee selects for redemption shall be in minimum amounts of US$2,000 or a multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If Securities are to be redeemed in part only, the Redemption Notice that relates to

such Securities will state the portion of the principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed. In the event that one or more of such Securities becomes subject to redemption in part only, upon surrender of any such Securities for payment of the redemption price, together with interest accrued to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, the Issuer shall execute and the U.S. Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without charge to the Holder thereof or upon the Holder's order one or more new Securities for the unredeemed part of the principal amount of the Securities so surrendered or, with respect to Global Securities, the U.S. Trustee shall make notations on the Global Securities of the principal amount thereof so redeemed. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "Security" or "Securities" as used in this <u>Article III</u> shall be deemed to mean or include any part of the principal amount of any Security which in accordance with the foregoing provisions has become subject to redemption.

Section 3.3 *Notice of Redemption*

Notice of redemption (the "*Redemption Notice*") of any Securities shall be given to the Holders of the Securities so to be redeemed not more than 60 days nor less than 10 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the "*Redemption Date*") in the manner provided in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>;<u> </u>*provided* that Redemption Notices in respect of optional redemptions of Securities may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the Redemption Notice is issued in connection with a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Every such Redemption Notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date, the redemption price and the places of payment and shall state that interest upon the principal amount of Securities called for redemption shall cease to be payable from and after the Redemption Date. Redemption Notices, including, without limitation, upon a Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event, may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. If a Redemption Notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such Redemption Notice shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion,

------

the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date as stated in such Redemption Notice, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer may provide in such Redemption Notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer's obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

In addition, unless all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the Redemption Notice shall specify:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the CUSIP, ISIN or similar numbers, if any, printed on the Securities which are to be redeemed (as are registered in the name of such Holder);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if such Securities are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to identify the Securities so selected;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) in the case of Global Securities, that the redemption will take place in such manner as may be agreed upon by the Depositary, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) in all cases, the principal amounts of such Securities or, if any such Security is to be redeemed in part only, the principal amount of such part.

Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, in the event that all Securities to be redeemed are Global Securities, publication of the Redemption Notice shall not be required.

Section 3.4 *Effect of Notice of Redemption*

Once notice of redemption is mailed to Holders, Securities (or portions thereof) called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of any condition permitted below. A notice of redemption may be subject to one or more conditions precedent specified in the notice of redemption, including completion of a Qualified Equity Offering, debt issuance, other offering or other corporate transaction or event. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date; *provided* that if the Redemption Date is after the taking of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the redeemed Securities are registered on such record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

Section 3.5 *Deposit of Redemption Price*

No later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities to be redeemed on that date. If the Issuer complies with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>3.5</u>, then on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption.

Section 3.6 *Optional Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time prior to August 15, 2027, the Issuer, at its option, may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Securities), at a redemption price equal to 106.625% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities to be redeemed, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings; *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (including Additional Securities) remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such redemption; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) each such redemption occurs not more than 180 days after the date of the closing of the related Qualified Equity Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time prior to August 15, 2027, the Issuer may redeem all or part of the

Securities at a redemption price equal to the sum of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes obligated to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in the laws, treaties or regulations of any Relevant Taxing Authority, or a change

------

in any official position regarding the application, interpretation or administration thereof (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction) or assessing practice with respect thereto, the enactment or adoption of which change is publicly announced on or after the date of this Indenture and such Additional Amounts cannot (as certified in an Officers' Certificate to the Trustees) be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, then the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the affected Securities, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 10 days' nor more than 60 days' notice (such notice to be provided not more than 90 days before the next date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts, if a payment on the Securities were due on such date), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date). Notice of the Issuer's intent to redeem the affected Securities shall not be effective until such time as it delivers to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts because of an amendment to or change in law, treaty or regulation or other position as described in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(e)</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In connection with any tender offer for the Securities (including in connection with any Change of Control Offer or Net Proceeds Offer), if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not validly withdraw such Securities in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party Person approved in writing by the Issuer making such tender offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party Person will have the right, upon not less than 10 days' nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following any such purchase date, to redeem (with respect to the Issuer) or purchase (with respect to a third party Person) all Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price paid to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date or purchase date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Redemption Date or purchase date).

Section 3.7 *Mandatory Redemption*

The Issuer is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities; *provided*, *however*, that under certain circumstances the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase the Securities pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u>.<u> </u>

Section 3.8 *Purchase of Securities for Cancellation*

The Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, purchase or otherwise acquire Securities, whether pursuant to a tender offer, open market purchase, negotiated transactions or otherwise, at any price, in accordance with applicable securities laws; provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture. All Securities so purchased may, at the option of the Issuer, be delivered to the U.S. Trustee and cancelled and no Securities shall be issued in substitution therefor.

**ARTICLE IV** 

**COVENANTS** 

Section 4.1 *Payment of Principal, Premium, and Interest*

The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities that it shall promptly pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities, this Indenture. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be deemed due for all purposes under this Indenture whether such payments are due at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon required repurchase pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> or <u>4.13</u> hereof, upon declaration or otherwise. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date due if by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such date the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due.

The Issuer will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the rate then in effect on the Securities; it will pay, to the extent lawful, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate as on overdue principal.

Section 4.2 *Reports and Financial Information*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will provide the Trustees, and the U.S. Trustee will deliver to all the Holders, the following information (collectively, the "*Financial Reports*"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) within 90 days of the end of each fiscal year, annual audited financial statements for such fiscal year
(along with customary comparative results) and (B) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, unaudited financial statements for the interim period as at, and for the period ending on, the end of
such fiscal quarter (along with comparative results for the corresponding interim period in the prior year), in each case, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" with
respect to the periods presented and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer's certified independent accountants; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) within 10 days after the occurrence of each event constituting a "material change" (as defined in
the *Securities Act* (Alberta)) that would have been required to be reported (pursuant to applicable rules and regulations in effect on the Issue Date) in a report under the *Securities Act* (Alberta) if the Issuer had been a
"reporting issuer" under the *Securities Act* (Alberta), a report containing substantially all of the information that would have been required to be contained (pursuant to the *Securities Act* (Alberta) and applicable rules
and regulations thereunder) in such report,

------

*provided*, *however*, that (x) Financial Reports shall be deemed to have been provided to the Trustees and the Holders once filed on the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca or filed with the SEC on the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system ("*EDGAR*") and (y) Financial Reports will not be required to include any reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with respect to financial information reported pursuant to GAAP.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If and for so long as any Securities remain outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the U.S. Securities Act, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act (for so long as such information is required in order to permit resales of the Securities pursuant to Rule 144A).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Unless the Financial Reports are available on SEDAR+, or on EDGAR, or on any successor system thereto, the Issuer will also maintain a website to which the beneficial holders of the Securities are given free access and on which, not later than the date by which the Financial Reports are required to be provided to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u>, such Financial Reports are made available. Making such Financial Reports so available shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)</u> that such Financial Reports be provided to the Trustees and delivered to the Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer is a "reporting issuer" (or its equivalent) required to file information with one or more securities regulators in Canada, no later than five Business Days after the date the annual and quarterly Financial Reports have been furnished pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2(a)(i)</u>, the Issuer shall also hold a live quarterly conference call with the opportunity for participants to ask questions of management. No fewer than three Business Days prior to the date such conference call is to be held, the Issuer shall issue a press release (which release shall be immediately filed on SEDAR+ or any successor system thereto or, if the applicable Canadian securities regulators do not permit such filing, immediately provided to the Trustees and the Holders) announcing such quarterly conference call, which press release shall contain the time and the date of such conference call and direct the recipients thereof to contact an individual at the Issuer (for whom contact information shall be provided in such notice) to obtain information on how to access such quarterly conference call.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Trustees will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing or posting of such Financial Reports has occurred; delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustees is for informational purposes only and the Trustees' receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer's compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture (as to which each Trustee is entitled to rely on officer's certificates). The Trustees shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Issuer's or any Guarantor's compliance with the covenants, or with respect to any reports or other documents filed with any government agency, under the Indenture or participate in any conference calls.

Interest Coverage Ratio"); *provided*, *however*, that the amount permitted to be incurred under Credit Facilities pursuant to clause (i)(B) above shall be increased to up to 4.0 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so
determined) in respect of Indebtedness incurred on the closing date of any Significant Acquisition (the "*Significant Acquisition Closing Date*") or within two Business Days of such Significant Acquisition Closing Date so long as
the portion of any such incurred Indebtedness which exceeds 3.50 times the Issuer's Consolidated Cash Flow (as so determined) is incurred to finance, directly or indirectly, such Significant Acquisition (in which case such excess portion of
the Indebtedness is referred to as an "*Incremental Acquisition Financing* "); and *provided, further*, that any Incremental Acquisition Financing that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs in reliance on the
foregoing proviso shall be permanently repaid by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries under such Credit Facilities within 180 days after the Significant Acquisition Closing Date unless (and solely to the extent) that at the expiration of such

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian Dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency or the granting of Liens securing Indebtedness or other obligations, the Canadian Dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness or other obligations shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date that such Indebtedness or other obligations were incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness or obligations, or first committed or first incurred (whichever yields the lowest Canadian Dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness or obligations; provided that if such Indebtedness or other obligations are incurred to refinance other Indebtedness or obligations denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness or other obligations being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness or obligations incurred to refinance other Indebtedness or obligations, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness or obligations being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

accounting period)

------

exchangeable debt securities of the Issuer that have been converted into or exchanged for such Qualified Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests or debt securities sold to a Subsidiary of the Issuer or net cash proceeds received by the Issuer
from Qualified Equity Offerings to the extent applied to redeem the Securities in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>3.6(a)</u>), *plus*

Indebtedness owed to, or Disqualified Equity Interests held by, the Issuer or a Subsidiary) of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is reduced on the Issuer's consolidated balance sheet upon the conversion or exchange after
October 1, 2021 of any such Indebtedness into or for Qualified Equity Interests (less the amount of any cash, or the Fair Market Value of any other property, distributed by the Issuer upon such conversion or exchange), *plus* 

(D) in the case of the disposition or repayment of or return on any Investment that was treated as a Restricted
Payment made by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries after October 1, 2021 (other than the release of any guarantee), an amount (to the extent not included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the lesser of (1)
100% of the aggregate amount received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in cash or other property (valued at the Fair Market Value thereof) as the return of capital with respect to such Investment and (2) the amount of such
Investment that was treated as a Restricted Payment, in either case, less the cost of the disposition of such Investment and net of taxes, *plus* 

(E) in the case of the release of any guarantee that was treated as a Restricted Payment made by the Issuer or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries after October 1, 2021, an amount equal to the amount of such guarantee that was treated as a Restricted Payment less any amount paid under such guarantee, *plus* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F) upon a Redesignation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, an amount (to the extent not
included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the lesser of (1) the Fair Market Value of the Issuer's proportionate interest in such Subsidiary immediately following such Redesignation, and (2) the aggregate amount
of the Issuer's Investments in such Subsidiary to the extent such Investments reduced the Restricted Payments Basket and were not previously repaid or otherwise reduced.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.4</u>, in the event that any Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments described in clauses (i) through (xvi) above or one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments (or portions of any of the foregoing) or pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.4(a)</u>, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may order and classify, and subsequently reorder and reclassify (based on circumstances existing at the time of such reorder or reclassification) such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) in any manner in compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.4</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of any Lien securing Indebtedness that ranks *pari passu* in right of payment with the
Securities or a Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Indebtedness with a Lien on the same collateral; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Lien securing Indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or a
Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Securities or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

in each case, for so long as such Indebtedness is secured by such Lien.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "*Increased Amount*" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.5</u>, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (1) through (33) of the definition of "Permitted Liens," the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify and redivide any Lien described in clauses (1) through (33) of the definition of "Permitted Liens" (*provided* that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Shares in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends
or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Equity Interests);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) make loans or advances, or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed, to the Issuer or any other Restricted
Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to other Indebtedness or obligations incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired (including after acquired property);

as a whole, are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, not materially more restrictive than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u> on the Issue Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was amalgamated or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable;

closing of such sale;

(x) any other agreement governing Indebtedness or other obligations entered into after the Issue Date if
(A) such agreement contains encumbrances and restrictions that are not materially more restrictive (taken as a whole) with respect to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries than those in effect on the Issue Date with respect to that Restricted
Subsidiary pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date or (B) any such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness is not expected, as determined by the Issuer in good faith, to result in a failure by the Issuer to be able
to make scheduled payments of cash interest and principal on the Securities when due;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) customary provisions in partnership agreements, limited liability company organizational governance documents,

Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of Net Available Proceeds are not invested or reinvested as contemplated by clause (iii) above within 365 days of receipt thereof, but the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has, within 365 days of receipt of such Net Available Proceeds, entered into a binding contractual commitment upon customary conditions (including a purchase agreement or purchase order) to make such investments, then the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have invested such Net Available Proceeds in accordance with clause (iii) above; *provided* that, in the event and to the extent such investment shall not be completed in whole or in part in accordance with such binding contractual commitment within 180 days after entering into such binding contractual commitment, such binding contractual commitment shall have been terminated in whole or in part, such investment shall be abandoned in whole or in part, or such Net Available Proceeds are not otherwise applied to fund such investment in whole or in part, then such Net Available Proceeds (or balance of Net Available Proceeds related to the non-completed portion of a binding contractual commitment in the event of a partial completion, termination, abandonment or application) shall constitute Net Available Proceeds from and after the date of such cancellation or termination. The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(d)</u> will constitute "*Excess Proceeds*."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make an Net Proceeds Offer as described in <u>Section</u> <u>4.7(g)(i)</u>, the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such
Holders to make an informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of Applicable Law, a Business
Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

|:---|:---|
| (g) (i) | The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by Applicable Law (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Period*"). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the "*Net Proceeds Purchase Date*"), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> (the "*Net Proceeds Offer Amount*") or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer.  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related Interest Payment
Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Securities pursuant to the Net
Proceeds Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a
pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer,
or if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Securities so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum denominations of US$2,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000
in excess thereof. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that such Securities or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly
(but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as
the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Securities or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer
will promptly issue a new Security, and the U.S. Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers' Certificate from the Issuer, will

------

authenticate and mail or deliver such new Security to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Security surrendered; *provided* that each such new Security will be in a minimum denomination in a principal amount of US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Security not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> and/or <u>Article V</u> and not by the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>:<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an
election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e1 under the U.S. Exchange Act and any other Applicable Laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any Applicable Laws and regulations conflict with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>, the Issuer shall comply with such Applicable Laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> by virtue of such compliance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that would reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm's length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of C$100 million, an Officer
of the Issuer has determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of C$125 million, a
resolution has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The restrictions in <u>Section</u> <u>4.8(a)</u> shall not apply to:

(B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors or senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a
whole, is not, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, materially more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an
Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an Equity Interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) (A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or proceeds therefrom or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Financing.

Section 4.10 *Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.20(b)</u>, designate any Subsidiary (including any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a "*Designation*"), *provided* that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation
(unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on the date such Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any
agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or

**SUCCESSORS TO THE ISSUER AND THE RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES** 

Section 5.1 *Restrictions on Amalgamation, Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Certain Assets*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, amalgamate, consolidate, or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving Person), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer will be the surviving or continuing Person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Person (if other than the Issuer) formed by or surviving or continuing from such amalgamation,
consolidation, merger, winding up or dissolution or to which such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or assignment shall be made (collectively, the "*Successor*") is a corporation, limited liability company or
limited partnership organized and existing under the laws of Canada or any province thereof or the United States of America or of any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, and the Successor expressly assumes, by
operation of law or supplemental indenture, all of the obligations of the Issuer under the Securities and this Indenture; *provided*, that if the Successor is not a corporation, a Restricted Subsidiary that is a corporation expressly assumes as co-obligor all of the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Securities pursuant to a supplemental indenture to this Indenture executed and delivered to the Trustees (for greater certainty, the
Issuer shall be considered to be the Successor in the event of a statutory amalgamation governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof of the Issuer with any other Restricted Subsidiary);

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as set forth in
clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) immediately after giving *pro forma* effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as
set forth in clause (i)(B) and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a *pro forma* basis, (A) the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, could incur C$1.00
of additional Indebtedness pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3(a)</u> or (B) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio for the Issuer or its Successor, as the case may be, and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to
such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) promptly after consummation of such transaction, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustees an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or transfer and such agreement and/or supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture;

*provided* that clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall not apply in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, or merger with or into, or sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposal of or assignment of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to, another Person that is the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary.

For purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(a)</u>, any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Issuer immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to have been incurred in connection with such transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except in circumstances providing for the release of a Guarantor described under <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u>, no Guarantor will, and the Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, amalgamate, consolidate or merge with or into or wind up or dissolve into another Person (whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person), or sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of its assets to any Person (other than the Issuer or another Guarantor) unless either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) (1) such Guarantor will be the surviving or continuing Person; or (2) the Person (if other than such
Guarantor) formed by or surviving any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, winding-up or dissolution is another Guarantor or assumes, by operation of law or supplemental indenture, all of the obligations
of such Guarantor under the Guarantee of such Guarantor and this Indenture;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) except in the case of any amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance, or other
disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and any Guarantor, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, sale, lease,
transfer, conveyance or other disposition, and such agreements and/or supplemental indenture (if any), comply with this Indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of a sale or other disposition, the transaction does not violate <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>. <u> </u> 

For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, the Equity Interests of which constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer, will be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon any amalgamation, merger or consolidation of the Issuer or a Guarantor or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1</u>,<u> </u>in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is not the continuing obligor under the Securities or its Guarantee, as applicable, the surviving entity formed by such amalgamation, merger or consolidation or into which the Issuer or such Guarantor is merged or the Person to which the sale, conveyance, lease, transfer, disposition or assignment is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer or such Guarantor under this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named therein as the Issuer or such Guarantor and, except in the case of a lease, the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Securities or in respect of its Guarantee, as the case may be, and all of the Issuer's or such Guarantor's other obligations and covenants under the Securities, this Indenture and its Guarantee, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the Issuer or any Guarantor may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or part of its properties and assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor or merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer solely for the purpose of reincorporating in Canada or a province thereof, a state of the United States or the District of Columbia, as long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby.

Section 5.2 *Vesting of Powers in Successor*

Whenever the conditions of <u>Section</u> <u>5.1</u> have been duly observed and performed, the Trustees will execute and deliver a Supplemental Indenture as provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>9.5</u> and then:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Successor will possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of the Issuer or Guarantor under this Indenture in the name of the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, or otherwise, and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required to be done or performed by any directors or officers of the Issuer or Guarantor may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of such successor; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, will be released and discharged from liability under this Indenture and the Trustees will execute any documents which it may be advised are necessary or advisable for effecting or evidencing such release and discharge.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) any Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantee and this Indenture) or is declared null and void and unenforceable or found to be invalid and such determination or cessation shall not be cured within 10 days or (B) any Guarantor denies its liability under the Guarantee of such Guarantor, in each case, other than by reason of release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Guarantee.

Section 6.2 *Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, Annulment and Waiver*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> with respect to the Issuer), shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the U.S. Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the U.S. Trustee, may declare (an "*acceleration declaration*") all amounts owing under the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration, the aggregate principal (and premium, if any) of and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Securities shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> occurs with respect to the Issuer, then the principal of (and premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Securities will thereupon become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other action on the part of the Trustees or any Holder to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the U.S. Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the
Issuer, the Holders and the U.S. Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts
of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) and the Issuer has paid all sums owing to the Trustees pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>7.6</u> hereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the U.S. Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Securities
(or any of them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any

------

Event of Default if, in the U.S. Trustee's opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor, and in such event to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences;

*provided* that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding <u>Section</u> <u>6.2(a)</u>, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of Default specified in <u>Section</u> <u>6.1(e)</u> shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the U.S. Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Trustees may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Securities.

Section 6.3 *Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer covenants that if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due
and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any on) any Security at the Stated Maturity
thereof and such default continues for a period of three Business Days,

the Issuer will, upon demand of the U.S. Trustee, pay to the U.S. Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the U.S. Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor (including the Guarantors, if any) upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the U.S. Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 6.4 *Trustee May File Proofs of Claim*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In case of any pending receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer and its debts or any other obligor upon the Securities (including the Guarantors, if any), and their debts or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors, the U.S. Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the U.S. Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal (and premium, if any) or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the U.S. Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon any such claims and to distribute the same,

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the U.S. Trustee and, in the event that the U.S. Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the U.S. Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the U.S. Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the U.S. Trustee hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the U.S. Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the U.S. Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Holder gives the U.S. Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustees to pursue the remedy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustees indemnity satisfactory to the Trustees against any costs, liability or expense;

Section 6.10 *Rights and Remedies Cumulative*

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the U.S. Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

------

Section 6.11 *Delay or Omission Not Waiver*

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

Section 6.12 *Direction by Holders*

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the U.S. Trustee. However, subject to Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u>, the U.S. Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the U.S. Trustee in personal liability, or that the U.S. Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Securities not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Securities.

Section 6.13 *Notice of Event of Default*

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the U.S. Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Canadian Trustee and the Holders, *provided* that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the U.S. Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, the U.S. Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the U.S. Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.

Section 6.14 *Undertaking for Costs*

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustees for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as a Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant.

Section 6.15 *Judgment Against the Issuer*

The Issuer covenants and agrees with the U.S. Trustee that, in case of any judicial or other proceedings to enforce the rights of the Holders, judgment may be rendered against it in favor of the Holders or in favor of the U.S. Trustee, as trustee for the Holders, for any amount which may remain due in respect of the Securities and premium (if any) and the interest thereon and any other monies owing hereunder.

**TRUSTEE** 

Section 7.1 *Duties of U.S. Trustee*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee, once it becomes aware of such Event of Default, shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the U.S. Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the U.S. Trustee; and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the U.S. Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the U.S. Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the U.S. Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The U.S. Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) this <u>Section</u> <u>7.1(c)</u> does not limit the effect of <u>Section</u> <u>7.1(b)</u> hereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of the U.S. Trustee unless it is proved that the U.S. Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the U.S. Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>6.12</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the U.S. Trustee is subject to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The U.S. Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the U.S. Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Money held in trust by the U.S. Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the U.S. Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate security or indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The permissive authorizations, entitlements, powers and rights (including the right to request that the Issuer take an action or deliver a document and the exercise of remedies following an Event of Default) granted to the U.S. Trustee herein shall not be construed as duties.

Section 7.2 *Rights of Trustees.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Trustees may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustees need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Before either of the Trustees acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. Neither of the Trustees shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers' Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Trustees may act through their respective attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Neither of the Trustees shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Trustees may consult with their respective counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Trustees shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless specifically notified in writing of such Default or Event of Default by the Issuer or by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities, and such notice is received by a responsible Trust Officer and references the Securities and this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) In no event shall a Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether such Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) A Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to such Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to such Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities, exculpations and benefits given to each of the Trustees, including, without limitation, its right to be compensated and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, such Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, to the other Trustee, the Agents and to each other agent, custodian and Person employed to act hereunder; provided however, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, only the U.S. Trustee, and not, subject to applicable law, any agent, shall be subject to the prudent person standard set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>7.1(a)</u>.<u> </u>

Section 7.3 *Individual Rights of U.S. Trustee*

The U.S. Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not U.S. Trustee. However, in the event that the U.S. Trustee acquires any conflicting interest after a Default has occurred and is continuing, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as U.S. Trustee or resign. The U.S. Trustee is also subject to <u>Sections 7.10</u> and <u>7.11</u> hereof.

Section 7.4 *U.S. Trustee's Disclaimer*

The U.S. Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Securities, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent (other than itself as Paying Agent), and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the U.S. Trustee's certificate of authentication. Under no circumstances shall the U.S. Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Securities.

Section 7.5 *Notice of Defaults*

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer of the U.S. Trustee has knowledge thereof as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>7.2(f)</u>, the U.S. Trustee shall send to each Holder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default relating to payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security (including payments pursuant to the redemption or required repurchase provisions of such Security), the U.S. Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its Board of Directors, the executive committee of its Board of Directors or a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

------

Section 7.6 *Compensation and Indemnity*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall pay to each of the Trustees from time to time, and the Trustees shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for its services hereunder and under the Securities as the Issuer and the Trustees shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustees' compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse each of the Trustees, as applicable, upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, court costs, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel retained by the Trustees in connection with the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel or otherwise, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustees' respective agents and counsel. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each of the Trustees (in its individual and trustee capacities) and its respective officers, directors and agents (collectively, the "*Indemnified Parties*" and each, an "*Indemnified Party*") from and against any and all loss, liability, claims, action, suit, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and the trusts thereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Securities, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>) and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or otherwise). Each Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity of which it has received written notice. Failure by either of the Trustees, as applicable, to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any claim for which indemnification is sought from them under this Indenture at their own expense. The Issuer shall also have the right to assume the defense of any such claim at its own expense so long as: (i) counsel appointed by the Issuer is reasonably acceptable to each Indemnified Party subject to such claim, (ii) there is no conflict of interest between one or more of the Indemnified Parties subject to such claim, on the one hand, and the Issuer, on the other hand, in the conduct of the response to a threatened claim or in the conduct of the defense of an actual claim that would make it inappropriate for the Issuer to assume such defense, in which event the Issuer shall be liable for the reasonable legal expenses of each counsel whose appointment is necessary to resolve such conflict and (iii) the Issuer shall not enter into any settlement with respect to any claim without the prior written consent (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Indemnified Parties subject to such claim, except for any settlement with respect to solely a claim for monetary compensation. The Issuer shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim for which indemnification is sought from it under this Indenture entered into without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Issuer is not required to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability, claims, action, suit, cost or expense incurred by the either of the Trustees through the Trustees' respective own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To secure the Issuer's payment obligations in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u>, the Trustees shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustees other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of, premium (if any) and interest on particular Securities.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer's obligations pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of any Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustees under Applicable Law, when the U.S. Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in <u>Sections 6.1(g)</u> or <u>6.1(h)</u> hereof with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.7 *Replacement of Trustees*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.8.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities may remove a Trustee by so notifying such Trustee and the Issuer and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer may remove a Trustee if: (i) such Trustee fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof; (ii) such Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; (iii) a custodian or other public officer takes charge of such Trustee or its property; or (iv) such Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If a Trustee resigns or is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of such Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of such retiring Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee at the sole cost of the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If either of the Trustees fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof after written notice thereto, the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of such Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Notwithstanding the replacement of a Trustee pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u>, the Issuer's obligations under <u>Section</u> <u>7.7</u> hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

------

Section 7.8 *Successor Trustees by Merger*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If either the U.S. Trustee or Canadian Trustee or any Agent consolidates with, merges or converts into, sells or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor U.S. Trustee or Canadian Trustee or Agent, as applicable.

Section 7.9 *Eligibility; Disqualification*

There shall at all times be at least one Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus (together with its Affiliates) of at least US$50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. Each Trustee hereunder shall comply with TIA Section 3.10(b) to the extent required; *provided*, *however*, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 3.10(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 3.10(b)(1) are met.

Section 7.10 *No Liability for Co-Trustee*

No Trustee appointed hereunder shall be personally liable or responsible by reason of any act or omission of any other Trustee hereunder.

Section 7.11 *Canadian Trustee*

The Issuer has appointed the Canadian Trustee under this Indenture in order to comply with Canadian Securities Laws and the *Business Corporations Act* (Alberta).

Section 8.5 *Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance under <u>Section</u> <u>8.3</u> or Covenant Defeasance under <u>Section</u> <u>8.4</u>:<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the U.S. Trustee, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash
in U.S. Dollars, non-callable Government Securities or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of
independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustees, to pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the outstanding Securities on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as
the case may be,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee confirming that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by the Internal Revenue Service, a ruling, or

(B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in
either case to the effect that, and based thereon this Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance
and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred,

(iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel in
the United States reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Covenant Defeasance and will be
subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Covenant Defeasance had not occurred,

(iv) in the case of Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an
Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee and qualified to practice in Canada or a ruling from Canada Revenue Agency to the effect that Holders of the outstanding Securities who are not resident in Canada should not recognize
income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, and should be subject to Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax on
the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, had not occurred,

------

(v) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either (A) on the date of such deposit (other than a Default
resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings) or (B) insofar as Defaults from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day
after the date of deposit,

(vi) the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, after the expiration of 3
months from the date of deposit and assuming that no intervening bankruptcy event has taken place in respect of the Issuer or any Guarantor between the date of deposit and the expiration of such 3 month period and assuming that no Holder was a non-arm's length party with respect to the Issuer or any Guarantor under applicable Bankruptcy Law, the deposit does not constitute a preferential payment that will be recoverable by a trustee in bankruptcy in
Canada pursuant to the provisions of the *Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act,* R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3, as amended,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not
made by it with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other of its creditors or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other of its creditors or others, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that the conditions precedent provided for in clauses (i) through (viii) above have been complied with.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If (x) the U.S. Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any funds or Government Securities in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u> by reason of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or Governmental Authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application or (y) the funds deposited with the U.S. Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Securities when due, then the Issuer's obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under this Indenture and the Guarantees will be

------

revived and reinstated and no such defeasance will be deemed to have occurred; *provided* that if the Issuer or any Guarantor has made any payment in respect of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities or, as applicable, other amounts because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer and such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the funds or Government Securities held by the U.S. Trustee.

Section 8.7 *Repayment to the Issuer*

Notwithstanding anything in this <u>Article VIII</u> to the contrary, the U.S. Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any funds or Government Securities held by it as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u> which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer expressed in a written certification thereof, delivered to the U.S. Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under <u>Section</u> <u>8.5(a)(i)</u>), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to fully satisfy the obligations of the Issuer under <u>Section</u> <u>8.1(b)(i)</u> or to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.8 *Continuance of Rights, Duties and Obligations*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Where trust funds or trust property have been deposited pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u>, the Holders and the Issuer shall continue to have and be subject to their respective rights, duties and obligations under <u>Article II</u> and <u>Article III</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that, after the deposit of trust funds or trust property pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u>, the Issuer is required to make an offer to purchase any outstanding Securities pursuant to the terms hereof, the Issuer shall be entitled to use any trust funds or trust property deposited with the U.S. Trustee pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.1</u> or <u>8.5</u> for the purpose of paying to any Holders of such Securities who have accepted any such offer of the total offer price payable in respect of an offer relating to any such Securities.

**ARTICLE X** 

**SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES** 

Section 10.1 *Subsidiary Guarantees*

Each Guarantor which is a party hereto or becomes a party hereto by executing and delivering a supplement to this Indenture pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.9</u> hereof, jointly and severally, unconditionally Guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustees and their respective successors and assigns the full and punctual payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the Securities when due, whether at Stated Maturity, or upon redemption, required repurchase pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>4.13</u> hereof, acceleration or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations owing by the Issuer under this Indenture (including obligations owing to the Trustees) and the Securities (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the "*Indenture Obligations*"). The Guarantors further agree that the Indenture Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from the Guarantors, and that the Guarantors will remain bound under this <u>Article X</u> notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Indenture Obligation.

The Guarantors waive presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Indenture Obligations and also waive notice of protest for nonpayment. The Guarantors waive notice of any Default under the Securities or the Indenture Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by: (i) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any Indenture Obligation; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment, modification or supplement of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture (other than this <u>Article X</u>), the Securities or any other agreement; (iv) the release of security, if any, held by any Holder or either of the Trustees for the Indenture Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder or either of the Trustees to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Indenture Obligations; (vi) any change in the ownership of the Issuer; or (vii) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of law or equity, except for payment of the Securities in full.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein constitute a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waive any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or either of the Trustees to security, if any, held for payment of the Indenture Obligations.

The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (except to the extent provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.2</u> hereof), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Indenture Obligations or otherwise.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, further agree that their Subsidiary Guarantees herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Indenture Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or either of the Trustees upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

------

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or either of the Trustees has at law or in equity against the Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any Indenture Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, required repurchase, acceleration or otherwise, the Guarantors hereby promise to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustees, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustees an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Indenture Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Indenture Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary Indenture Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders and the Trustees.

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustees, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Indenture Obligations may be accelerated as provided in <u>Article VI</u> for the purposes of the Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Indenture Obligations, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Indenture Obligations as provided in <u>Article VI</u>, such Indenture Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, also agree to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustees or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>.<u> </u>

Section 10.2 *Limitation on Liability*

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities, each Holder, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustees, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this <u>Article X</u>, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 10.3 *Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee*

The execution by each Guarantor of this Indenture (or a Supplemental Indenture) evidences the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Security. The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor.

------

The delivery of any Security by the U.S. Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

In the event that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date, the Issuer will comply with the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.9</u> hereof.

Section 10.4 *Successors and Assigns*

Except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof, this <u>Article X</u> shall be binding upon the Guarantors and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustees and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights in accordance with the terms of this Indenture by any Holder or the Trustees, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees.

Section 10.5 *No Waiver*

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustees or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this <u>Article X</u> shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustees and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this <u>Article X</u> at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Section 10.6 *Right of Contribution*

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor's right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this <u>Article X</u>. The provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.6</u> shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Trustees and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustees and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 10.7 *No Subrogation*

Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Guarantors hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to exercise any rights of subrogation it may have to any of the rights of either of the Trustees or any Holder against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by either of the Trustees or any Holder for the payment of the Indenture Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution

------

or reimbursement from the Issuer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustees and the Holders by the Issuer on account of the Indenture Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Indenture Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustees and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustees in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustees, if required), to be applied against the Indenture Obligations.

Section 10.8 *Modification*

No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this <u>Article X</u>, nor the consent to any departure by the Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with <u>Article IX</u> hereof. No notice to or demand on the Guarantors in any case shall entitle the Guarantors to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Upon any request or application by the Issuer to a Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action under this Indenture, the Issuer shall, if requested, furnish to such Trustee: (i) an Officers' Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Trustee stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent have been complied with; *provided*, that the foregoing clause (ii) shall not apply to the execution of any supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture or the release of a Guarantor pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u>.<u> </u>

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Securities owned by the Issuer or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustees shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Securities which a Trust Officer of the U.S. Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Also, subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.

Section 11.7 *Legal Holidays*

A "*Legal Holiday*" is a day that is not a Business Day. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees, if a payment date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. If a record date is a Legal Holiday, the record date shall not be affected.

Section 11.8 *Governing Law*

THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 11.9 *Waiver of Jury Trial*

THE PARTIES HERETO (AND EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A SECURITY) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO. EACH PARTY (AND EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A SECURITY) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO ARE ENTERING INTO THIS INDENTURE IN RELIANCE UPON SUCH WAIVER.

Section 11.10 *Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Prescription*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each party to this Indenture or the Securities hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of (i) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or of any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) and (ii)

------

the courts of its own corporate domicile, in each case with all applicable courts of appeal therefrom, with respect to actions brought against it as a defendant, for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the Securities or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; *provided* that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the ability of any party to this Indenture or the Securities to bring suit in any other permissible jurisdiction. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court, any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and any objection based on place of residence or domicile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors irrevocably appoints Corporation Service Company, with address at 1180 Avenue of the Americas, Suite 210, New York, New York 10036, United States, as its authorized agent on which any and all legal process may be served in any such action, suit or proceeding brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or in any New York State court (in either case sitting in Manhattan, New York City) in connection with this Indenture or the Securities. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that service of process in respect of it upon such agent, together with written notice of such service sent to it in the manner provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>11.2</u>, shall be deemed to be effective service of process upon it in any such action, suit or proceeding. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees that the failure of such agent to give notice to it of any such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any action, suit or proceeding based thereon. If for any reason such agent shall cease to be available to act as such (including by reason of the failure of such agent to maintain an office in New York City), the Issuer and each of the Guarantors agrees promptly to designate a new agent in New York City, on the terms and for the purposes of this Section. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the U.S. Trustee to serve any such legal process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law or to obtain jurisdiction over the Issuer or bring actions, suits or proceedings against it in such other jurisdictions, and in such manner, as may be permitted by Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors will waive any immunity (including sovereign immunity), to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any such suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Claims against the Issuer or any Guarantor for the payment of principal or interest and Additional Amounts in respect of the Securities or the Guarantee, as the case may be, will be prescribed unless made within six years of the due date for payment of such principal or interest and Additional Amounts.

Section 11.11 *Force Majeure*

In no event shall the Trustees be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, epidemic, pandemic, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer

------

(software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustees shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

Section 11.12 *No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Shareholders*

No director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Issuer, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Issuer is a trustee or carrier shall have any liability for any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Securities or this Indenture or any Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities and the Guarantees. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under applicable securities laws.

Section 11.13 *Immunity*

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby waives any claim it may have to immunity (whether sovereign or otherwise), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled in any suit, action or proceeding in any U.S. federal or New York State court in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any competent court in Canada.

Section 11.14 *Conversion of Currency*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due under this Indenture to the Holder from another currency to U.S. Dollars, the Issuer and each Guarantor agree, and each Holder by holding a Security will be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase U.S. Dollars with such other currency in the State of New York on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "*judgment currency*") other than U.S. Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or a Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in such judgment currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. Dollars with the judgment currency. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee in the judgment currency (as determined in the manner set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11.14(a)</u>), as the case may be, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Holder and the Trustee, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, will pay the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor such excess; *provided* that such Holder or such Trustee, as the case may be, shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a Default under the Securities or this Indenture has occurred and is continuing or

------

if the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have failed to pay any Holder any amounts then due and payable under such Security or this Indenture, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder or such Trustee to such obligations.

Section 11.15 *Successors*

All agreements of the Issuer and (except as otherwise provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> hereof) the Guarantors in this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustees in this Indenture shall bind their respective successors.

Section 11.16 *Multiple Originals; Counterparts*

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. This Indenture may be executed in multiple counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by electronic or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by electronic or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. This Indenture and any certificate, agreement or other document to be signed in connection with this Indenture and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party only when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an original manual signature; (ii) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature; or (iii) in the case of this Indenture and any certificate, agreement or other document to be signed in connection with this Indenture and the transactions contemplated hereby, other than authentication by the Trustee or an authenticating agent of any Notes, any electronic signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law, including relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (collectively, "*Signature Law*"). Each electronic signature (except in the case of any Notes) or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature (except in the case of any Notes), of any party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof. For avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for authentication of any Notes by the Trustee and for execution or indorsement of writings when required under the Uniform Commercial Code or other Signature Law due to the character or intended character of the writings. The words "execution", "signed", "signature", "delivery", and words of like import in or relating to this Indenture or any document to be signed in connection with this Indenture (including, without limitation, the Security, the Guarantees, and any Officers' Certificate) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, including without limitation, digital signature provided by DocuSign or Adobe, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature. The Issuer or Guarantors agree to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information to the Trustees, including, without limitation, the risk of the Trustees acting on unauthorized instructions, reports, notices or other communications or information and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

------

Section 11.17 *Severability*

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 11.18 *Table of Contents; Headings*

The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 11.19 *No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements*

This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

Section 11.20 *Acts of Holders*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and may be given or obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, outstanding Securities; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the U.S. Trustee, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Canadian Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "*Act*" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustees and the Issuer if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.20.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such witness, notary or officer the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the U.S. Trustee deems sufficient.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.18</u>, the principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Holder, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the register of the Securities maintained by the Registrar as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.3</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders of the Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Issuer may, at their option, by or pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Issuer shall have no obligation to do so. Such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith or the date of the most recent list of Holders forwarded to the U.S. Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.6</u> and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the then outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the then outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; *provided* that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent (to an amendment hereof or otherwise), waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration or transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustees or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. After any amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder unless it makes a change described in clauses (a) through (j) of <u>Section</u> <u>9.2</u>,<u> </u>in which case the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so itself with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

For purposes of this Indenture, any action by the Holders which may be taken in writing may be taken by electronic means or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee.

Section 11.21 *USA PATRIOT Act*

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the U.S. Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each

------

person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The Issuer agrees that it will provide the U.S. Trustee with information about the Issuer as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably request in order for the U.S. Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act. The Issuer also agrees that it will provide the U.S Trustee with information about the Issuer as the U.S. Trustee may reasonably request including, without limitation, information in the Issuer's possession (a) about the Issuer and/or transactions (including any modification to the terms of such transactions) so the U.S. Trustee can determine whether it has tax related obligations under FATCA, and (b) that the U.S. Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments to the extent necessary to comply with FATCA, and the U.S. Trustee shall not have any liability for its withholding or deduction from such payments provided it remits the full amount withheld or deducted in accordance with FATCA. The terms of this section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section 11.22 *Canadian Trustee Not Bound to Act*

The Canadian Trustee shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever the Canadian Trustee, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Canadian Trustee, in its sole judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Indenture has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on ten (10) days written notice to the other parties to this Indenture, provided (i) that the Canadian Trustee's written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (ii) that if such circumstances are rectified to the Canadian Trustee's satisfaction within such ten (10) day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.

ARTICLE 2

<u>THE NOTES</u> 

Section 2.01 <u>Form and Dating</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) General. The Notes of each series and the U.S. Trustee's certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A-1</u>, <u>Exhibit A-2</u> or <u>Exhibit A-3</u> hereto, as applicable. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of C$2,000 and integral multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustees, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A-1</u>, <u>Exhibit A-2</u> or <u>Exhibit A-3</u> hereto, as applicable (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the "*Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note*" attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form will be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A-1</u>, <u>Exhibit A-2</u> or <u>Exhibit A-3</u> hereto, as applicable (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the "*Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note*" attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes of the applicable series as will be specified therein, and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes of such series from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes of such series represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, repurchases and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the U.S. Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the U.S. Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by <u>Section</u> <u>2.06</u> hereof.

------

Section 2.02 <u>Execution and Authentication</u>.

At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be valid.

A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the U.S. Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The U.S. Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer signed by two Officers of the Issuer (an "*Authentication Order*"), authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including (a) C$549,406,000.00 aggregate principal amount of Initial 2026 Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and any Additional 2026 Notes; (b) C$380,785,000.00 aggregate principal amount of Initial 2028 Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and any Additional 2028 Notes; and (c) C$544,701,000.00 aggregate principal amount of Initial 2029 Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and any Additional 2029 Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes of a series outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes of such series authorized for issuance by the Issuer pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.07</u> hereof. Concurrent with the authentication of any Notes under this Indenture, the Issuer will deliver a copy of the Authentication Order to the Canadian Trustee and such other details necessary such that the Canadian Trustee can update its records and registrar. Upon written request, the US Trustee will deliver any additional information it possesses such that the Canadian Trustee can update its records and registrar.

The U.S. Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the U.S. Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the U.S. Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

Section 2.03 <u>Registrar and Paying Agent</u>.

The Issuer will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange ("*Registrar*") and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment ("*Paying Agent*"). The Registrar will keep a register of Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term "*Registrar*" includes any co-registrar and the term "*Paying Agent*" includes any additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer will notify the Canadian Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Canadian Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of the Issuer's Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The Issuer initially appoints CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. ("*CDS*") to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The Issuer initially appoints the Canadian Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and the U.S. Trustee to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

------

Section 2.04 <u>Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust</u>.

The Issuer will require each Paying Agent other than the Canadian Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the U.S. Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Canadian Trustee and the U.S. Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the U.S. Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the U.S. Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the U.S. Trustee. Upon payment over to the U.S. Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the U.S. Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.05 <u>Holder Lists</u>.

The Canadian Trustee, as Registrar, will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders of Notes. If the Canadian Trustee is not the Registrar for the Notes, the Issuer will furnish to the Canadian Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Canadian Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Canadian Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes.

Section 2.06 <u>Transfer and Exchange</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes</u>. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Notes of the same series if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default with respect to such series of the Notes and the Depositary notifies the Trustees of its decision to exchange the Global Notes for Definitive Notes.

Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Canadian Trustee and the Registrar. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in <u>Sections 2.07</u> and <u>2.10</u> hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any

------

portion thereof, pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>2.07</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>2.10</u> hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(a)</u>; however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(b)</u> or <u>(c)</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes</u>. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either <u>subparagraph (1)</u> or <u>(2)</u> below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note</u>. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note of the same series in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend. Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note of the same series. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(b)(1)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note</u>.

If required by the Registrar or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Registrar, the U.S. Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the U.S. Trustee, the Registrar, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer, the Registrar and the U.S. Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes of the same series duly issued hereunder.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the U.S. Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the U.S. Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.08</u> as not outstanding. Except as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>2.09</u> hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.07</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the U.S. Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under <u>Section</u> <u>4.01</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

------

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds as of 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, on a Redemption Date, or other maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.09 <u>Treasury Notes</u>.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the U.S. Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the U.S. Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded.

Section 2.10 <u>Temporary Notes</u>.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the U.S. Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer will prepare and the U.S. Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.11 <u>Cancellation</u>.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the U.S. Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the U.S. Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The U.S. Trustee or the Registrar and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Issuer at the written request of the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the U.S. Trustee or the Registrar for cancellation.

Section 2.12 <u>Defaulted Interest</u>.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on the applicable record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in <u>Section</u> <u>4.01</u> hereof. The Issuer will notify the U.S. Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer will fix or cause to be fixed each such payment date and, if such payment date is beyond the applicable grace period, a special record date; <u>provided</u> that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the U.S. Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) will send or cause to be sent to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the redemption price, if then determinable and, if not, then a method for determination; and

No Notes of C$2,000 or less can be redeemed in part.

------

Section 3.03 <u>Notice of Redemption</u>.

At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Issuer will send, or cause to be sent, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (or send electronically, if CDS is the recipient), except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes of the relevant series or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such Notes pursuant to <u>Article 8</u> or <u>Article 11</u> hereof, as applicable.

The notice of redemption will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or <u>Section</u> <u>3.02</u> of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) any conditions precedent with respect to such redemption.

At the Issuer's request, the U.S. Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer's name and at its expense; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Issuer has delivered to the U.S. Trustee, at least five Business Days prior to the date of giving such notice (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the U.S. Trustee), an Officers' Certificate requesting that the U.S. Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. Such Officers' Certificate may be combined with the Officers' Certificate referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>3.01</u>.

------

Section 3.04 <u>Effect of Notice of Redemption</u>.

Once a notice of redemption is delivered to the Holders in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>3.03</u> hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date, at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of conditions precedent specified in the applicable notice of redemption.

Section 3.05 <u>Deposit of Redemption Price</u>.

By 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, on the Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit with the U.S. Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The U.S. Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the U.S. Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph with respect to a redemption pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.07</u> hereof, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption is not so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date, until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in <u>Section</u> <u>4.01</u> hereof.

Section 3.06 <u>Notes Redeemed in Part</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>2028 Notes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any redemption pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>3.07</u> may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>3.07</u> is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date, as so delayed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Notes of each series are also redeemable as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.09(d)</u>.<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any redemption pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>3.07</u> shall be made pursuant to the provisions of <u>Sections 3.01</u> through <u>3.06</u> hereof.

The Issuer shall maintain in Canada an office or agency (which may be an office of the Registrar and Paying Agent or an affiliate of the Registrar or co-registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustees of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustees with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the applicable Trustee.

The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in Canada for such purposes.

All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports, but shall not be required to comply with Rules 3-09, 3-10, 3-16 or Article 13 of Regulation S-X.

Section 4.04 <u>Compliance Certificate</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustees, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year (starting with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025), an Officers' Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto).

Section 4.05 <u>Stay, Extension and Usury Laws</u>.

The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that they will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustees, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Section 4.06 <u>Additional Guarantees</u>.

If, after the date of this Indenture, any Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not already a Guarantor guarantees or becomes a co-obligor in respect of any Debt of either the Issuer or of any Guarantor under a Credit Facility, then the applicable Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit E</u> hereto and delivering it to the Trustees within 20 Business Days of the date on which it guaranteed or became a co-obligor in respect of such Debt. Notwithstanding the preceding, any Note Guarantee of a Subsidiary that was incurred pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to the terms, including the release provisions, described in <u>Article 10</u> hereto.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder of Notes of such series describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the purchase price and the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled "*Option of Holder to Elect Purchase*" attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a facsimile, electronic transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes of the same series and equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to C$2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of C$1,000 in excess thereof.

The Issuer shall comply with all applicable requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and other securities laws and regulations. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u>, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> by virtue of such compliance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer as a result of any Qualified Retail Asset Sale.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Promptly following the expiration of a Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. Promptly thereafter on the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustees the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers' Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

------

The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes (or, to the extent the Notes are in global form, make such payment through the facilities of CDS), and the U.S. Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note of the same series and equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered; <u>provided</u> that each new Note will be in a principal amount of C$2,000 or an integral multiple of C$1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> that require the Issuer to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u>, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control with respect to a series of Notes if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer with respect to such Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer; (2) notice of redemption with respect to all outstanding Notes of that series has been given pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.07</u> hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price; or (3) in connection with, or in contemplation of, any publicly announced Change of Control, the Issuer has made an offer to purchase (an "*Alternate Offer*") any and all Notes of that series properly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all such Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of such Alternate Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a series accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes of that series held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes of that series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes of such series on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

An Event of Default with respect to one series of Notes may not constitute an Event of Default with respect to the other series of Notes.

------

Section 6.02 <u>Acceleration</u>.

In the case of an Event of Default specified in <u>clause (7)</u> or <u>clause (8)</u> of <u>Section</u> <u>6.01</u> hereof with respect to the Issuer, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes of each series will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs with respect to any series of Notes and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of that series may declare, by notice in writing to the Issuer, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes of that series to be due and payable immediately.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series by written notice to the U.S. Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of the Notes of that series, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes of that series and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes of that series.

Section 6.03 <u>Other Remedies</u>.

If an Event of Default occurs with respect to any series of Notes and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes of that series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes of that series or this Indenture.

The U.S. Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes of any series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the U.S. Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.

For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes of that series (including the related Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of <u>Section</u> <u>8.05</u> hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under the Notes of that series, the related Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the U.S. Trustee, on the demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions, which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes of that series to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Issuer's obligations with respect to the Notes of that series concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustees and the Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations in connection therewith; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) this <u>Article 8</u>.

Subject to compliance with this <u>Article 8</u>, the Issuer may exercise its option under this <u>Section</u> <u>8.02</u> notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof.

Section 8.03 <u>Covenant Defeasance</u>.

Upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.01</u> hereof of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> with respect to any series of Notes, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof, be released with respect to that series of Notes from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in <u>Sections 4.03</u>, <u>4.04</u>, <u>4.06</u>, <u>4.07</u>, <u>4.08</u> and <u>4.09</u> hereof, and the Guarantors will be released from their obligations with respect to the related Note Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, "*Covenant Defeasance*"), and the Notes of that series will thereafter be deemed not "outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that the Notes of that series will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes to the extent permitted by GAAP). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means with respect to any series of Notes that, with respect to the outstanding Notes of that series and related Note Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under <u>Section</u> <u>6.01</u> hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and the Notes of that series and the related Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.01</u> hereof of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> with respect to any series of Notes, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof, <u>Sections 6.01(3)</u> through <u>6.01(6)</u> inclusive hereof will not constitute Events of Default with respect to Notes of that series.

Section 8.04 <u>Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) in the case of an election under <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee confirming that the Beneficial Owners of the outstanding Notes of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustees an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes of that series over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or others; and

Section 8.07 <u>Reinstatement</u>.

If the U.S. Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any Canadian dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>8.02</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations under this Indenture and the Notes of the relevant series and the related Note

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date of this Indenture;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) to secure the Notes and/or the Note Guarantees; or

Upon the request of the Issuer, and upon receipt by the Trustees of the documents described in <u>Section</u> <u>9.06</u> hereof, the Trustees will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this <u>Section</u> <u>9.01</u> and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but each of the Trustees will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.02 <u>With Consent of Holders of Notes</u>.

Except as provided below in this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02,</u> the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustees may amend or supplement this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series then outstanding and affected thereby (including Additional Notes of such series, if any) (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>6.04</u> hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series then outstanding and affected thereby (including Additional Notes of such series, if any) (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). <u>Section</u> <u>2.08</u> hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be "outstanding" for purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u>.

Upon the request of the Issuer, and upon the filing with the Trustees of evidence satisfactory to the Trustees of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustees of the documents described in <u>Section</u> <u>9.06</u> hereof, the Trustees will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects a Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case such Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u> to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u> becomes effective, the Issuer will send to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

------

However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u> may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption or repurchase of the Notes (other than provisions relating to minimum required notice of optional redemption or to <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> hereof);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes of a series by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of, principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes (other than as permitted by <u>clause (7)</u> below);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> hereof);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) make any change in the preceding amendment, supplement and waiver provisions.

Section 9.03 <u>[Reserved]</u>.

Section 9.04 <u>Revocation and Effect of Consents</u>.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustees receive written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder; except as provided in the last paragraph of <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u>.

------

Section 9.05 <u>Notation on or Exchange of Notes</u>.

The U.S. Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the U.S. Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06 <u>Trustees to Sign Amendments, etc</u>.

The Trustees will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this <u>Article 9</u> if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustees. If it does, a Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustees shall receive and (subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.01</u> hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by <u>Section</u> <u>12.04</u> hereof, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE 10

<u>NOTE GUARANTEES</u> 

Section 10.01 <u>Guarantee</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to this <u>Article 10</u>, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the U.S. Trustee and to each of the Trustees and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustees hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any Holder or either of the Trustees is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of the foregoing to such Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustees, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in <u>Article 6</u> hereof for the purposes of this <u>Article 10</u>, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in <u>Article 6</u> hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this <u>Article 10</u>. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this <u>Article 10</u>.

Section 10.02 <u>Limitation on Guarantor Liability</u>.

Each Guarantor, and, by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustees, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this <u>Article 10</u>, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

------

Section 10.03 <u>Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee</u>.

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>10.01</u> hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached as <u>Exhibit D</u> hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the U.S. Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>10.01</u> hereof will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the notation of Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the U.S. Trustee authenticates the Note on which a notation of Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the U.S. Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

Section 10.04 <u>Releases</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event of any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of any Guarantor, in each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transactions) the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer, then such Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of Capital Stock of such Guarantor) or the Person acquiring the properties or assets (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of such Guarantor) will be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee; <u>provided</u> that following such sale or disposition, the Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At such time as any Guarantor ceases to guarantee or be a co-obligor in respect of any other Debt of the Issuer or of a Guarantor, the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor shall be automatically released; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if, at any time following such release, that Guarantor incurs a guarantee of, or becomes a co-obligor in respect of, any Debt of the Issuer or a Guarantor, then such Guarantor shall be required to provide a Note Guarantee as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.06</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to a series of Notes in accordance with <u>Article 8</u> hereof or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to a series of Notes in accordance with <u>Article 11</u> hereof, each Guarantor will be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee with respect to such Notes.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon the first day on which the Notes of each series then outstanding achieve an Investment Grade Rating, each Guarantor will be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee.

Upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustees of an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that a Note Guarantee has been released in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustees will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee.

The release of a Guarantor from its Note Guarantee pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>10.04</u> shall also release such Guarantor from all of its other obligations under this Indenture.

Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>10.04</u> will remain liable for the full amount of principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this <u>Article 10</u>.

ARTICLE 11

<u>SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE</u> 

Section 11.01 <u>Satisfaction and Discharge</u>.

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes of a series issued hereunder (except as to surviving rights of transfer or exchange of such Notes and as otherwise specified herein), when:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all Notes of that series that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to the Trustees for cancellation; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) all Notes of that series that have not been delivered to the Trustees for cancellation have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year by reason of the sending of a notice of redemption or otherwise and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the U.S. Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in Canadian dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in Canadian dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes of that series not delivered to the Trustees for cancellation for principal and premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of fixed maturity or redemption;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture with respect to that series;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the U.S. Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes of that series at fixed maturity or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) in the case of a deposit of non-callable Government Securities or a combination of cash in Canadian dollars and non-callable Government Securities, an opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or independent public accountants that the amounts in each deposit will be sufficient to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding Notes of that series on stated date for payment or the applicable Redemption Date.

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustees stating that all conditions precedent to such satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money or Government Securities have been deposited with the U.S. Trustee pursuant to <u>subclause (B)</u> of <u>clause (1)</u> of this <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u>, the provisions of <u>Sections 2.06</u>, <u>2.07</u>, <u>2.10</u>, <u>8.06</u> and <u>11.02</u> hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> will be deemed to discharge those provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u> hereof that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

Section 11.02 <u>Application of Trust Money</u>.

Subject to the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>8.06</u> hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the U.S. Trustee pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the U.S. Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the U.S. Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

If the U.S. Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer's and any Guarantor's obligations under this Indenture and the Notes of the relevant series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> hereof, until such time as the U.S. Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply such money in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> hereof; <u>provided</u> that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, such Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the U.S. Trustee or Paying Agent.

Interest on this Note will, subject to paragraph (1)(b), accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; <u>provided</u> that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (1), the June 16, 2026 interest payment on the Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI 2026 CAD Notes (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), initially accrued from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid for the PKI 2026 CAD Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, tendered in exchange therefor so that a Holder thereof will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI 2026 CAD Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations described in the Offering Memorandum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the June 1 or December 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Holders of Definitive Notes must surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any, due at maturity. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within Canada, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; <u>provided</u> that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes for which the Holders of C$5.0 million or more in principal amount of which have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the Government of Canada as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Paying Agent and Registrar</u>. Initially, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, the Canadian Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Indenture</u>. The Issuer issued this Note under an Indenture dated as of November 7, 2025 (the "*Indenture*") among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustees, as one of the "2026 Notes" referred to therein (and are herein referred to as the "*Notes*"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture as it relates to the Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes were initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of C$549,406,000.00 on the date of the Indenture. Additional 2026 Notes may be issued thereunder subject to the terms of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) <u>Optional Redemption</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any such optional redemption may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

A-1-4

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. Except as set forth in paragraph 5(b) above, notice of redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (or send electronically, if CDS is the recipient), except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes. Notes in denominations larger than C$2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) <u>Repurchase at the Option of Holder</u>. If there is a Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer may be required to make an offer (a "*Change of Control Offer*") to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to C$2,000 or an integral multiple of C$1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash (the "*Change of Control Payment*") equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the "*Change of Control Payment*"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) <u>Denominations, Transfer, Exchange</u>. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of C$2,000 and integral multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustees may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental charges required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) <u>Persons Deemed Owners</u>. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) <u>Amendment, Supplement and Waiver</u>. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2026 Notes, if any), and any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2026 Notes, if any). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes as described in the Indenture.

A-1-5

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) <u>Defaults and Remedies</u>. If any Event of Default occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer, as described in the Indenture, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes, will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the U.S. Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the U.S. Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) <u>Trustee Dealings with the Issuer</u>. Each of the Trustees, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not a Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(13) <u>No Recourse Against Others</u>. None of the Trustees, the General Partner or any past, present or future director, officer, partner, member, employee, incorporator, manager or unit holder or other owner of Equity Interests of the Trustees, the General Partner, the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes and the Note Guarantees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) <u>Authentication</u>. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the U.S. Trustee or an authenticating agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(15) <u>Abbreviations</u>. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(16) <u>CUSIP Numbers</u>. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and the U.S. Trustee may use CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

[Back of Note]

6.000% Senior Notes due 2028

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Interest</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Sunoco LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "*Issuer*"), promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at 6.000% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 23 and December 23 of each year, beginning on June 23, 2026 or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "*Interest Payment Date*"). Interest on this Note will, subject to paragraph (1)(b), accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; <u>provided</u> that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (1), the June 23, 2026 interest payment on the Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI 2028 CAD Notes (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), initially accrued from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid for the PKI 2028 CAD Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, tendered in exchange therefor so that a Holder thereof will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI 2028 CAD Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations described in the Offering Memorandum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the June 8 or December 8 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Holders of Definitive Notes must surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any, due at maturity. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within Canada, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; <u>provided</u> that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes for which the Holders of C$5.0 million or more in principal amount of which have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the Government of Canada as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

A-2-3

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Paying Agent and Registrar</u>. Initially, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, the Canadian Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Indenture</u>. The Issuer issued this Note under an Indenture dated as of November 7, 2025 (the "*Indenture*") among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustees, as one of the "2028 Notes" referred to therein (and are herein referred to as the "*Notes*"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture as it relates to the Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes were initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of C$380,785,000.00 on the date of the Indenture. Additional 2028 Notes may be issued thereunder subject to the terms of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) <u>Optional Redemption</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any such optional redemption may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

A-2-4

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. Except as set forth in paragraph 5(b) above, notice of redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (or send electronically, if CDS is the recipient), except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes. Notes in denominations larger than C$2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) <u>Repurchase at the Option of Holder</u>. If there is a Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer may be required to make an offer (a "*Change of Control Offer*") to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to C$2,000 or an integral multiple of C$1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash (the "*Change of Control Payment*") equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the "*Change of Control Payment*"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) <u>Denominations, Transfer, Exchange</u>. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of C$2,000 and integral multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustees may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental charges required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) <u>Persons Deemed Owners</u>. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) <u>Amendment, Supplement and Waiver</u>. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2028 Notes, if any), and any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2028 Notes, if any). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes as described in the Indenture.

A-2-5

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) <u>Defaults and Remedies</u>. If any Event of Default occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer, as described in the Indenture, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes, will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the U.S. Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the U.S. Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) <u>Trustee Dealings with the Issuer</u>.

[Back of Note]

4.375% Senior Notes due 2029

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Interest</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Sunoco LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "*Issuer*"), promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at 4.375% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on March 26 and September 26 of each year, beginning on March 26, 2026 or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "*Interest Payment Date*"). Interest on this Note will, subject to paragraph (1)(b), accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; <u>provided</u> that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (1), the March 26, 2026 interest payment on the Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI 2029 CAD Notes (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), initially accrued from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid for the PKI 2029 CAD Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, tendered in exchange therefor so that a Holder thereof will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI 2029 CAD Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations described in the Offering Memorandum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the March 11 or September 11 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Holders of Definitive Notes must surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any, due at maturity. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within Canada, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; <u>provided</u> that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes for which the Holders of C$5.0 million or more in principal amount of which have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the Government of Canada as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

A-3-3

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Paying Agent and Registrar</u>. Initially, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, the Canadian Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Indenture</u>. The Issuer issued this Note under an Indenture dated as of November 7, 2025 (the "*Indenture*") among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustees, as one of the "2029 Notes" referred to therein (and are herein referred to as the "*Notes*"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture as it relates to the Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes were initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of C$544,701,000.00 on the date of the Indenture. Additional 2029 Notes may be issued thereunder subject to the terms of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) <u>Optional Redemption</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on March 26 of the years indicated below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Year** | **Redemption Price** |
| 2025 | 101.094% |
|  2026 and thereafter | 100.000% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any such optional redemption may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

A-3-4

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. Except as set forth in paragraph 5(b) above, notice of redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (or send electronically, if CDS is the recipient), except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes. Notes in denominations larger than C$2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) <u>Repurchase at the Option of Holder</u>. If there is a Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer may be required to make an offer (a "*Change of Control Offer*") to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to C$2,000 or an integral multiple of C$1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash (the "*Change of Control Payment*") equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the "*Change of Control Payment*"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) <u>Denominations, Transfer, Exchange</u>. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of C$2,000 and integral multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustees may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental charges required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) <u>Persons Deemed Owners</u>. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) <u>Amendment, Supplement and Waiver</u>. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2029 Notes, if any), and any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may

A-3-5

------

be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2029 Notes, if any). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes as described in the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) <u>Defaults and Remedies</u>. If any Event of Default occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, the U.S. Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer, as described in the Indenture, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes, will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the U.S. Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the U.S. Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) <u>Trustee Dealings with the Issuer</u>. Each of the Trustees, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not a Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(13) <u>No Recourse Against Others</u>. None of the Trustees, the General Partner or any past, present or future director, officer, partner, member, employee, incorporator, manager or unit holder or other owner of Equity Interests of the Trustees, the General Partner, the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes and the Note Guarantees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) <u>Authentication</u>. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the U.S. Trustee or an authenticating agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(16) <u>CUSIP Numbers</u>. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and the U.S. Trustee may use CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

ARTICLE 2

<u>THE NOTES</u> 

Section 2.01 <u>Form and Dating</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) General. The Notes of each series and the Trustee's certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A-1</u>, <u>Exhibit A-2</u>, <u>Exhibit A-3</u> or <u>Exhibit A-4</u> hereto, as applicable. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A-1</u>, <u>Exhibit A-2</u>, <u>Exhibit A-3</u> or <u>Exhibit A-4</u> hereto, as applicable (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the "*Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note*" attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form will be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A-1</u>, <u>Exhibit A-2</u>, <u>Exhibit A-3</u> or <u>Exhibit A-4</u> hereto, as applicable (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the "*Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note*" attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes of the applicable series as will be specified therein, and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes of such series from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes of such series represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, repurchases and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by <u>Section</u> <u>2.06</u> hereof.

Section 2.02 <u>Execution and Authentication</u>.

At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be valid.

A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer signed by two Officers of the Issuer (an "*Authentication Order*"), authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including (a) $498,854,000 aggregate principal amount of Initial 2027 Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and any Additional 2027 Notes, (b) $789,974,000 aggregate principal amount of Initial 2029 Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and any

------

Additional 2029 Notes, (c) $798,252,000 aggregate principal amount of Initial 2030 Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and any Additional 2030 Notes and (d) $492,759,000 aggregate principal amount of Initial 2032 Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and any Additional 2032 Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes of a series outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes of such series authorized for issuance by the Issuer pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.07</u> hereof.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

Section 2.03 <u>Registrar and Paying Agent</u>.

The Issuer will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange ("*Registrar*") and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment ("*Paying Agent*"). The Registrar will keep a register of Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term "*Registrar*" includes any co-registrar and the term "*Paying Agent*" includes any additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of the Issuer's Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company ("*DTC*") to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.04 <u>Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust</u>.

The Issuer will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

------

Section 2.05 <u>Holder Lists</u>.

The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders of Notes. If the Trustee is not the Registrar for the Notes, the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes.

Section 2.06 <u>Transfer and Exchange</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes</u>. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Notes of the same series if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default with respect to such series of the Notes and the Depositary notifies the Trustee of its decision to exchange the Global Notes for Definitive Notes.

Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in <u>Sections 2.07</u> and <u>2.10</u> hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>2.07</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>2.10</u> hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(a)</u>; however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(b)</u> or <u>(c)</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes</u>. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either <u>subparagraph (1)</u> or <u>(2)</u> below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note</u>. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note of the same series in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend. Beneficial

No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(b)(1)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the participant account to be credited with such increase; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes for original issue in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>2.02</u> hereof.

At the option of the Issuer and upon compliance with the Applicable Procedures, beneficial interests in a Restricted Global Note shall be exchanged automatically for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note of the same series.

Following any such transfer pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(j)</u> of all of the beneficial interests in a Restricted Global Note, such Restricted Global Note shall be canceled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Transfers of Securities Held by Affiliates</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06</u>, any certificate (i) evidencing a Note that has been transferred to an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of the Issuer, as evidenced by a notation on the certificate of transfer or certificate of exchange for such transfer or in the representation letter delivered in respect thereof, or (ii) evidencing a Note that has been acquired from an affiliate (other than by an affiliate) in a transaction or a chain of transactions not involving any public offering, as evidenced by a notation on the certificate of transfer or certificate of exchange for such transfer or in the representation letter delivered in respect thereof, shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer, until one year after the last date on which either the Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer was an owner of such Note, in each case, be in the form of a permanent Definitive Note and bear the private placement legend subject to the restrictions in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06</u>. The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.06(k)</u>. The Issuer, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable advance written notice to the Trustee.

Section 2.07 <u>Replacement Notes</u>.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee's requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes of the same series duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.08 <u>Outstanding Notes</u>.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.08</u> as not outstanding. Except as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>2.09</u> hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of <u>Section</u> <u>3.07(d)(1)</u> hereof.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.07</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under <u>Section</u> <u>4.01</u> hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

------

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds as of 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, on a Redemption Date, or other maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.09 <u>Treasury Notes</u>.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded.

Section 2.10 <u>Temporary Notes</u>.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.11 <u>Cancellation</u>.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Issuer at the written request of the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12 <u>Defaulted Interest</u>.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on the applicable record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in <u>Section</u> <u>4.01</u> hereof. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer will fix or cause to be fixed each such payment date and, if such payment date is beyond the applicable grace period, a special record date; <u>provided</u> that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) will send or cause to be sent to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the redemption price, if then determinable and, if not, then a method for determination; and

No Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part.

------

Section 3.03 <u>Notice of Redemption</u>.

At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Issuer will send, or cause to be sent, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes of the relevant series or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such Notes pursuant to <u>Article 8</u> or <u>Article 11</u> hereof, as applicable.

The notice of redemption will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) any conditions precedent with respect to such redemption.

Such Officers' Certificate may be combined with the Officers' Certificate referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>3.01</u>.

Section 3.04 <u>Effect of Notice of Redemption</u>.

Once a notice of redemption is delivered to the Holders in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>3.03</u> hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date, at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of conditions precedent specified in the applicable notice of redemption.

Section 3.05 <u>Deposit of Redemption Price</u>.

By 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, on the Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph with respect to a redemption pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.07</u> hereof, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption is not so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date, until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in <u>Section</u> <u>4.01</u> hereof.

Section 3.06 <u>Notes Redeemed in Part</u>.

If, after the date of this Indenture, any Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not already a Guarantor guarantees or becomes a co-obligor in respect of any Debt of either the Issuer or of any Guarantor under a Credit Facility, then the applicable Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit E</u> hereto and delivering it to the Trustee within 20 Business Days of the date on which it guaranteed or became a co-obligor in respect of such Debt.

The Issuer shall comply with all applicable requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and other securities laws and regulations. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u>, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> by virtue of such compliance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer as a result of any Qualified Retail Asset Sale.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Promptly following the expiration of a Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> that require the Issuer to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u>, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control with respect to a series of Notes if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer with respect to such Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer; (2) notice of redemption with respect to all outstanding Notes of that series has been given pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.07</u> hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price; or (3) in connection with, or in contemplation of, any publicly announced Change of Control, the Issuer has made an offer to purchase (an "*Alternate Offer*") any and all Notes of that series properly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all such Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of such Alternate Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a series accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes of that series held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes of that series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes of such series on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

In the case of an Event of Default specified in <u>clause (7)</u> or <u>clause (8)</u> of <u>Section</u> <u>6.01</u> hereof with respect to the Issuer, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes of each series will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs with respect to any series of Notes and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of that series may declare, by notice in writing to the Issuer, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes of that series to be due and payable immediately.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of the Notes of that series, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes of that series and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes of that series.

Section 6.03 <u>Other Remedies</u>.

If an Event of Default occurs with respect to any series of Notes and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes of that series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes of that series or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes of any series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04 <u>Waiver of Past Defaults</u>.

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any series by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes of that series, waive an existing Default or Event of Default with respect to Notes of that series and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes of that series (including in connection with an offer to purchase); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences with respect to Notes of that series, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

------

Section 6.05 <u>Control by Majority</u>.

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it hereunder with respect to Notes of that series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 6.06 <u>Limitation on Suits</u>.

A Holder of Notes of any series may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) such Holder gives to the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default with respect to that series of Notes is continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of that series make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion against any loss, liability or expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) during such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of that series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request.

To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u> hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) In no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits, irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action arising in connection with this Indenture.

Section 7.03 <u>Individual Rights of Trustee</u>.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the TIA) after a Default has occurred and is continuing, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof.

Section 7.04 <u>Trustee</u><u>'</u><u>s Disclaimer</u>.

The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer's direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05 <u>Notice of Defaults</u>.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs with respect to any series of Notes and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will send to Holders of Notes of that series a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs.

Section 7.06 <u>[Reserved]</u>.

Section 7.07 <u>Compensation and Indemnity</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Issuer will pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee's compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuer and the Guarantors will indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer and the Guarantors (including this <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u>) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense which is found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the Trustee's own negligence or bad faith. The Trustee will notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer will not relieve the Issuer or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuer or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u> will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) To secure the Issuer's and the Guarantors' payment obligations in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u>, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in <u>Section</u> <u>6.01(8)</u> hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.08 <u>Replacement of Trustee</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.08</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Trustee fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will send a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; <u>provided</u> all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u> hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7.08</u>, the Issuer's obligations under <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u> hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09 <u>Successor Trustee by Merger, etc</u>.

Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.10</u> hereof, if the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee.

Section 7.11 <u>Force Majeure</u>.

In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means with respect to any series of Notes that, with respect to the outstanding Notes of that series and related Note Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under <u>Section</u> <u>6.01</u> hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and the Notes of that series and the related Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under <u>Section</u> <u>8.01</u> hereof of the option applicable to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> with respect to any series of Notes, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof, <u>Sections 6.01(3)</u> through <u>6.01(6)</u> inclusive hereof will not constitute Events of Default with respect to Notes of that series.

Section 8.04 <u>Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance</u>.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to a series of Notes under either <u>Section</u> <u>8.02</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of Notes of that series, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding Notes of that series on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular Redemption Date, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Beneficial Owners of the outstanding Notes of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) in the case of an election under <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Beneficial Owners of the outstanding Notes of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes of that series over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or others; and

Section 8.05 <u>Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions</u>.

Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>8.06</u> hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>8.05</u>, the "*Trustee*") pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the relevant series of Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Issuer will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Notwithstanding anything in this <u>Article 8</u> to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>8.04</u> hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under <u>Section</u> <u>8.04(1)</u> hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06 <u>Repayment to the Issuer</u>.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or, if then held by the Issuer, shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease.

Section 8.07 <u>Reinstatement</u>.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>8.02</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer's and the Guarantors' obligations under this Indenture and the Notes of the relevant series and the related Note Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.02</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>8.02</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>8.03</u> hereof, as the case may be;

------

 <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, such Notes following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any such Holder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a notation of a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes or to reflect the addition or release of a Note Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) to secure the Notes and/or the Note Guarantees; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) to provide for the reorganization of the Issuer as any other form of entity, in accordance with the provisions described in <u>Section</u> <u>5.01</u> hereof.

Upon the request of the Issuer, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in <u>Section</u> <u>9.06</u> hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this <u>Section</u> <u>9.01</u> and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.02 <u>With Consent of Holders of Notes</u>.

Except as provided below in this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02,</u> the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series then outstanding and affected thereby (including Additional Notes of such series, if any) (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>6.04</u> hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series then outstanding and affected thereby (including Additional Notes of such series, if any) (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). <u>Section</u> <u>2.08</u> hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be "outstanding" for purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u>.

Upon the request of the Issuer, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in <u>Section</u> <u>9.06</u> hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u> to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u> becomes effective, the Issuer will send to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u> may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption or repurchase of the Notes (other than provisions relating to minimum required notice of optional redemption or to <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> hereof);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes of a series by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of, principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes (other than as permitted by <u>clause (7)</u> below);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by <u>Section</u> <u>4.09</u> hereof);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) make any change in the preceding amendment, supplement and waiver provisions.

Section 9.03 <u>[Reserved]</u>.

Section 9.04 <u>Revocation and Effect of Consents</u>.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder; except as provided in the last paragraph of <u>Section</u> <u>9.02</u>.

------

Section 9.05 <u>Notation on or Exchange of Notes</u>.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06 <u>Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc</u>.

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this <u>Article 9</u> if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall receive and (subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.01</u> hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by <u>Section</u> <u>12.04</u> hereof, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE 10

<u>NOTE GUARANTEES</u> 

Section 10.01 <u>Guarantee</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to this <u>Article 10</u>, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of the foregoing to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in <u>Article 6</u> hereof for the purposes of this <u>Article 10</u>, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in <u>Article 6</u> hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this <u>Article 10</u>. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this <u>Article 10</u>.

Section 10.02 <u>Limitation on Guarantor Liability</u>.

Each Guarantor, and, by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this <u>Article 10</u>, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

------

Section 10.03 <u>Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee</u>.

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>10.01</u> hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached as <u>Exhibit D</u> hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>10.01</u> hereof will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the notation of Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a notation of Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

The release of a Guarantor from its Note Guarantee pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>10.04</u> shall also release such Guarantor from all of its other obligations under this Indenture.

Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this <u>Section</u> <u>10.04</u> will remain liable for the full amount of principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this <u>Article 10</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture with respect to that series;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) in the case of a deposit of non-callable Government Securities or a combination of cash in U.S. Dollars and non-callable Government Securities, an opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or independent public accountants that the amounts in each deposit will be sufficient to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding Notes of that series on stated date for payment or the applicable Redemption Date.

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to such satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money or Government Securities have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to <u>subclause (B)</u> of <u>clause (1)</u> of this <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u>, the provisions of <u>Sections 2.06</u>, <u>2.07</u>, <u>2.10</u>, <u>8.06</u> and <u>11.02</u> hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> will be deemed to discharge those provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>7.07</u> hereof that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer's and any Guarantor's obligations under this Indenture and the Notes of the relevant series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> hereof, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply such money in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>11.01</u> hereof; <u>provided</u> that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, such Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

[Back of Note]

5.875% Senior Notes due 2027

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Interest</u>. (a) Sunoco LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "*Issuer*"), promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at 5.875% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2026 or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "*Interest Payment Date*"). Interest on this Note will, subject to paragraph (1)(b), accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; <u>provided</u> that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (1), the January 15, 2026 interest payment on the Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI 2027 USD Notes (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), initially accrued from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid for the PKI 2027 USD Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, tendered in exchange therefor so that a Holder thereof will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI 2027 USD Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations described in the Offering Memorandum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the January 1 or July 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Holders of Definitive Notes must surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any, due at maturity. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within the continental United States, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; <u>provided</u> that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes for which the Holders of $5.0 million or more in principal amount of which have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Paying Agent and Registrar</u>. Initially, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

A-1-3

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Indenture</u>. The Issuer issued this Note under an Indenture dated as of November 7, 2025 (the "*Indenture*") among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, as one of the "2027 Notes" referred to therein (and are herein referred to as the "*Notes*"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture as it relates to the Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes were initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $498,854,000 on the date of the Indenture. Additional 2027 Notes may be issued thereunder subject to the terms of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) <u>Optional Redemption</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any such optional redemption may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. Except as set forth in paragraph 5(b) above, notice of redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) <u>Repurchase at the Option of Holder</u>. If there is a Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer may be required to make an offer (a "*Change of Control Offer*") to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash (the "*Change of Control Payment*") equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the "*Change of Control Payment*"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) <u>Denominations, Transfer, Exchange</u>. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental charges required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) <u>Persons Deemed Owners</u>. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) <u>Amendment, Supplement and Waiver</u>. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2027 Notes, if any), and any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2027 Notes, if any). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes as described in the Indenture.

A-1-5

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) <u>Defaults and Remedies</u>. If any Event of Default occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer, as described in the Indenture, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes, will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) <u>Trustee Dealings with the Issuer</u>. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(13) <u>No Recourse Against Others</u>. None of the Trustee, the General Partner or any past, present or future director, officer, partner, member, employee, incorporator, manager or unit holder or other owner of Equity Interests of the Trustee, the General Partner, the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes and the Note Guarantees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) <u>Authentication</u>. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(15) <u>Abbreviations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(16) <u>CUSIP Numbers</u>. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders.

[Back of Note]

4.500% Senior Notes due 2029

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Interest</u>. (a) Sunoco LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "*Issuer*"), promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at 4.500% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2026 or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "*Interest Payment Date*"). Interest on this Note will, subject to paragraph (1)(b), accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; <u>provided</u> that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (1), the April 1, 2026 interest payment on the Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI 2029 USD Notes (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), initially accrued from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid for the PKI 2029 USD Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, tendered in exchange therefor so that a Holder thereof will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI 2029 USD Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations described in the Offering Memorandum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the March 15 or September 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Holders of Definitive Notes must surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any, due at maturity. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within the continental United States, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; <u>provided</u> that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes for which the Holders of $5.0 million or more in principal amount of which have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Paying Agent and Registrar</u>. Initially, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

A-2-3

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Indenture</u>. The Issuer issued this Note under an Indenture dated as of November 7, 2025 (the "*Indenture*") among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, as one of the "2029 Notes" referred to therein (and are herein referred to as the "*Notes*"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture as it relates to the Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes were initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $789,974,000 on the date of the Indenture. Additional 2029 Notes may be issued thereunder subject to the terms of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) <u>Optional Redemption</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on October 1 of the years indicated below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Year** | **Redemption Price** |
| 2025 | 101.125% |
|  2026 and thereafter | 100.000% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any such optional redemption may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

A-2-4

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. Except as set forth in paragraph 5(b) above, notice of redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) <u>Repurchase at the Option of Holder</u>. If there is a Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer may be required to make an offer (a "*Change of Control Offer*") to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash (the "*Change of Control Payment*") equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the "*Change of Control Payment*"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) <u>Denominations, Transfer, Exchange</u>. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental charges required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) <u>Persons Deemed Owners</u>. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) <u>Amendment, Supplement and Waiver</u>. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2029 Notes, if any), and any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2029 Notes, if any). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes as described in the Indenture.

A-2-5

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) <u>Defaults and Remedies</u>. If any Event of Default occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer, as described in the Indenture, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes, will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) <u>Trustee Dealings with the Issuer</u>. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(13) <u>No Recourse Against Others</u>. None of the Trustee, the General Partner or any past, present or future director, officer, partner, member, employee, incorporator, manager or unit holder or other owner of Equity Interests of the Trustee, the General Partner, the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes and the Note Guarantees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) <u>Authentication</u>. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

4.625% Senior Notes due 2030

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Interest</u>. (a) Sunoco LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "*Issuer*"), promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at 4.625% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on May 1, 2026 or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "*Interest Payment Date*"). Interest on this Note will, subject to paragraph (1)(b), accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; <u>provided</u> that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (1), the May 1, 2026 interest payment on the Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI 2030 USD Notes (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), initially accrued from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid for the PKI 2030 USD Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, tendered in exchange therefor so that a Holder thereof will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI 2030 USD Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations described in the Offering Memorandum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the April 15 or October 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Holders of Definitive Notes must surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any, due at maturity. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within the continental United States, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; <u>provided</u> that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes for which the Holders of $5.0 million or more in principal amount of which have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Paying Agent and Registrar</u>. Initially, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

A-3-3

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Indenture</u>. The Issuer issued this Note under an Indenture dated as of November 7, 2025 (the "*Indenture*") among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, as one of the "2030 Notes" referred to therein (and are herein referred to as the "*Notes*"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture as it relates to the Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes were initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $798,252,000 on the date of the Indenture. Additional 2030 Notes may be issued thereunder subject to the terms of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) <u>Optional Redemption</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time or from time to time, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on May 1 of the years indicated below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Year** | **Redemption Price** |
| 2025 | 102.313% |
| 2026 | 101.156% |
|  2027 and thereafter | 100.000% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any such optional redemption may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

A-3-4

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. Except as set forth in paragraph 5(b) above, notice of redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) <u>Repurchase at the Option of Holder</u>. If there is a Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer may be required to make an offer (a "*Change of Control Offer*") to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash (the "*Change of Control Payment*") equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the "*Change of Control Payment*"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) <u>Denominations, Transfer, Exchange</u>. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental charges required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) <u>Persons Deemed Owners</u>. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) <u>Amendment, Supplement and Waiver</u>. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2030 Notes, if any), and any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may

A-3-5

------

be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional 2030 Notes, if any). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes as described in the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) <u>Defaults and Remedies</u>. If any Event of Default occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer, as described in the Indenture, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes, will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the principal of, the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) <u>Trustee Dealings with the Issuer</u>. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(13) <u>No Recourse Against Others</u>. None of the Trustee, the General Partner or any past, present or future director, officer, partner, member, employee, incorporator, manager or unit holder or other owner of Equity Interests of the Trustee, the General Partner, the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes and the Note Guarantees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) <u>Authentication</u>. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(15) <u>Abbreviations</u>. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(16) <u>CUSIP Numbers</u>. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers and corresponding ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

6.625% Senior Notes due 2032

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Interest</u>. (a) Sunoco LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "*Issuer*"), promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at 6.625% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2026 or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "*Interest Payment Date*"). Interest on this Note will, subject to paragraph (1)(b), accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; <u>provided</u> that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (1), the February 15, 2026 interest payment on the Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI 2032 USD Notes (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), initially accrued from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid for the PKI 2032 USD Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, tendered in exchange therefor so that a Holder thereof will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI 2032 USD Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations described in the Offering Memorandum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Method of Payment</u>. The Issuer will pay interest on this Note to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Holders of Definitive Notes must surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any, due at maturity. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within the continental United States, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; <u>provided</u> that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes for which the Holders of $5.0 million or more in principal amount of which have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Paying Agent and Registrar</u>. Initially, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Indenture</u>. The Issuer issued this Note under an Indenture dated as of November 7, 2025 (the "*Indenture*") among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, as one of the "2032 Notes" referred to therein (and are herein referred to as the "*Notes*"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture as it relates to the Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes were initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $492,759,000 on the date of the Indenture. Additional 2032 Notes may be issued thereunder subject to the terms of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(I) at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of 2032 Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional 2032 Notes) remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such redemption; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(II) the redemption occurs not more than 180 days after the date of the closing of any such Qualified Equity Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer or other tender offer, and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or other tender offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment or Alternate Offer or other tender offer price, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any such optional redemption may, at the Issuer's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such optional redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (<u>provided</u> that in no event shall such Redemption Date be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.

As previously announced on October 21, 2025, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 20, 2025, Sunoco received the requisite consents from Eligible Holders (as defined below) of each series of PKI Notes to amend the PKI Notes of each series and related indenture and supplemental indentures under which they were issued (as supplemented, collectively, the "PKI Indentures" and each, a "PKI Indenture").

As previously announced, on October 31, 2025, Sunoco completed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Parkland. As a result, Parkland is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunoco.

Parkland is expected to enter into supplemental indentures to the PKI Indentures (collectively, the "PKI Amending Supplemental Indentures") implementing certain proposed amendments to, among other things, eliminate from each PKI Indenture, as it relates to each series of PKI Notes (i) substantially all of the restrictive covenants, (ii) certain of the events which may lead to an "Event of Default," (iii) the financial reporting covenant and (iv) the offer to purchase notes upon a "Change of Control" (collectively, the "Proposed Amendments"). The PKI Amending Supplemental Indentures will be effective upon execution but will only become operative upon the Settlement Date (as defined below) of the applicable Exchange Offer.

PKI Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn and that are accepted for exchange will be exchanged for New Notes on the Settlement Date, and the applicable consideration will be paid to the Eligible Holders of such PKI Notes on such date.

Withdrawal rights for the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 20, 2025. Holders may no longer withdraw tendered PKI Notes or revoke consents, except as required by applicable law.

The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations were made pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the confidential exchange offer memorandum and consent solicitation statement for the PKI CAD Notes, dated as of October 6, 2025 (the "CAD Exchange Offer Memorandum"), and the confidential exchange offer memorandum and consent solicitation statement for the PKI USD Notes, dated as of October 6, 2025 (the "USD Exchange Offer Memorandum" and together with the CAD Exchange Offer Memorandum, each an "Exchange Offer Memorandum" and collectively, the "Exchange Offer Memoranda"), each as amended by Sunoco's press release dated October 21, 2025. The settlement date of the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations (the "Settlement Date") is expected to occur on November 7, 2025.

------

Each series of New Notes will have substantially identical interest rates, interest payment dates, maturity dates and redemption terms as the corresponding series of PKI Notes. The first interest payment on any New Notes will include the accrued and unpaid interest on the PKI Notes tendered in exchange therefor so that a tendering Eligible Holder will receive the same interest payment it would have received had its PKI Notes not been tendered in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations; provided that the amount of accrued and unpaid interest shall only be equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of PKI Notes equal to the aggregate principal amount of New Notes an Eligible Holder receives.

This news release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale of, the notes or any other securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

The New Notes offered in the Exchange Offers have not been registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state or foreign securities laws and no prospectus will be filed under applicable securities laws in any of the provinces or territories of Canada. Accordingly, the New Notes will be subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws, pursuant to registration or exemption therefrom. The New Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States or to any "U.S. persons" (as such term is defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act in offshore transactions in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act) except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Only persons who properly complete and return the eligibility certification (the "Eligibility Letter"), which is available from the Information Agent (as defined below), certifying that they are (i) if such person is located in the United States, a "qualified institutional buyers" within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act ("QIBs") or (ii) if such person is located outside of the United States, such person is not a U.S. person and (if a resident in Canada) a "non-U.S. qualified offeree" (such persons, "USD Exchange Eligible Holders") are authorized to receive and review the respective USD Exchange Offer Memorandum. Only USD Exchange Eligible Holders who have completed and returned an Eligibility Letter, available from the Information Agent, are authorized to receive or review the USD Exchange Offer Memorandum or to participate in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations applicable to the PKI USD Notes.

------

Only (i) QIBs, (ii) non-U.S. persons that are outside of the United States within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act or (iii) non-U.S. persons that are resident in Canada and an "accredited investor" (as such term is defined in National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions) and, in the case of a purchaser resident in Ontario, subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario), without being an individual unless such individual is also a "permitted client" as such term is defined in National Instrument 31-103 – Registration Requirements, Exemptions, and Ongoing Registrant Obligations (such persons, the "CAD Exchange Eligible Holders" and, together with the USD Exchange Eligible Holders, the "Eligible Holders") are eligible to participate in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations applicable to the PKI CAD Notes.
