faith;

that Capital Leases pursuant to which title has been transferred to the Client but which are
required to be defined as Capital Leases under GAAP shall be deemed to be Capital Leases; and

issuer or correspondent in any application for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other
agreement in favour of any issuer or correspondent relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation,
shall be deemed to have been granted or undertaken by Borrower to Agent and Lenders. Any duties
or obligations undertaken by Agent or any Lender to any issuer or correspondent in any application
for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other agreement by Agent or any Lender in favour of
any issuer or correspondent relating to any

- 35 -

 

Letter of Credit Accommodation, shall be deemed to have been undertaken by Agent and Lenders
to Borrower.

     2.3 Term Loan

     (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, each Lender severally (and
not jointly) agrees to make a Term Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan
to Borrower in US Dollars in an aggregate amount not exceeding the Maximum Term Credit, available
once only in a single advance on or about the date hereof.

     (b) The Term Loan will be (a) evidenced by term promissory notes (each, a “Term Note”) in
such original principal amount duly executed and delivered by Borrower to the specified Lender
concurrently herewith; (b) to be repaid, together with interest and other amounts, in accordance
with this Agreement, the Term Notes, and the other Financing Agreements and (c) secured by all of
the Collateral and the other collateral described in the Financing Agreements.

     (c) Borrower shall make equal monthly payments of principal on the Term Loan on the first day
of each month commencing on the first day of the sixth month following advance of the Term Loan
and ending on the Maturity Date in an amount sufficient to amortize the full amount of the Term
Loan over a period of twenty four (24) months and otherwise in accordance with the Term Notes. On
the Maturity Date the remaining unamortized balance of the Term Loan (including principal, accrued
and unpaid interest and other amounts due and owing with respect thereto) shall be due and be
payable.

     (d) The Term Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without notice or penalty
provided the funds used for any such prepayment (i) are generated from operations of Borrower, or
(ii) are proceeds of an equity issue by Borrower. Prepayments of the Term Loan from any other
source will be subject to the early termination fees as follows:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Amount	 	 	 	Period
	(a) 1.5% of Term Loan being
prepaid

	 	-
	 	From the date hereof to but
not including October 31,

	(b) 1.0% of Term Loan being
prepaid

	 	-
	 	On and after November 1, 2010

	(c) 0.5% of Term Loan being
prepaid

	 	-
	 	On and after November 1, 2011
to and including October 31,
2013.

Any prepayment received will be applied against scheduled payments in reverse order of maturity.
The early termination fee provided for in this Section 2.3(d) shall be deemed included in
the Obligations.

- 36 -

 

     2.4 Swap Agreements

     (a) Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 9.9(f) and (h),
Borrower agrees not to enter into any Swap Agreement or other hedge or swap arrangements or
agreements without the prior written consent of Agent unless such Swap Agreement is with Agent or
an Affiliate of Agent.

     (b) If permitted under Section 2.4(a), Borrower may enter into Swap Agreements from
time to time over the telephone with representatives of Agent’s or a Lender’s trading unit (or
that of its Affiliates), the terms of which shall be confirmed in writing in accordance with the
procedures established by the trading unit of Agent, Lender or its Affiliate, as applicable.

     (c) Each Swap Agreement is governed by the terms and conditions set out in the confirmation
forwarded by the applicable Person to Borrower on entering into the Swap Agreement and any
applicable ISDA agreement. If there is a conflict between the terms and conditions set out in the
confirmation or ISDA agreement and this Agreement, the confirmation or ISDA agreement shall govern
unless otherwise expressly provided herein.

     (d) Swap Agreements may, at the discretion of Agent, Lender or its Affiliate, have contract
periods extending beyond the Maturity Date.

     (e) Agent, Lenders and their respective Affiliates may, at their respective discretion,
decline to enter into any Swap Agreement with Borrower at any time.

     (f) Swap Agreements may be entered into for hedging purposes only and not for speculative
purposes. Swap Agreements may not be entered into at any time when the aggregate Mark to Market
Exposure of all existing Swap Agreements of Borrower, in the aggregate, exceeds $10,000,000 or
such greater amount as the Agent may agree in writing. If, at any time, the Mark to Market
Exposure of all Swap Agreements of Borrower, in the aggregate, exceeds $10,000,000 or such greater
amount agreed to in writing by Agent, Borrower shall take such measures as may be necessary to
reduce the Mark to Market Exposure by the amount of such excess within five (5) Business Days.
The notional amount of any and all Swap Agreements of Borrower shall not exceed $50,000,000 in the
aggregate.

     (g) Borrower shall provide Agent with written notice forthwith upon entering into a Swap
Agreement. Such notice shall specify applicable Agent or Lender (or its Affiliate or financial
institution) and the aggregate Mark to Market Exposure of outstanding Swap Agreements immediately
prior to entering into such Swap Agreement. Borrower shall advise Agent in writing of the
aggregate Mark to Market Exposure of its outstanding Swap Agreements as at the end of each month
by the next following Business Day, and such other times as Agent shall request. For greater
certainty, each Agent and any Lender that makes a Swap Agreement available to Borrower covenants
and agrees (and shall cause any of its applicable Affiliates) to provide within five (5) Business
Days of a written request therefor by Borrower, a determination of the Mark to Market Exposure of
each Swap Agreement that such Agent or Lender (or such Affiliate) has with Borrower.

SECTION 3. INTEREST AND FEES

     3.1 Interest

     (a) Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the account of Lenders based on their respective Pro
Rata Shares, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the non-contingent Obligations at the
applicable Interest Rate. Subject to Sections 2.3, 3.1 and 3.2 hereof,
Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the Loans by way of Euro Dollar Rate Loans and
US Prime Rate Loans.

     (b) Interest shall be payable by Borrower to Agent, for the account of Lenders based on their
respective Pro Rata Shares, monthly in arrears not later than the first Business Day of each
calendar month and shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year
and actual days elapsed. The interest rate applicable to US Prime Rate Loans shall increase or
decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the US Prime Rate after any change in
such rate is announced. All interest accruing hereunder on and after an Event of Default or
maturity or termination hereof shall be payable on demand. In no event shall charges constituting
interest payable by Borrower to Agent, for the account of Lenders based on their respective Pro
Rata Shares, exceed the maximum amount or the rate permitted under any applicable law or
regulation, and if any part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law or
regulation, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto.

     (c) For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), where interest is calculated
pursuant hereto at a rate based upon a three hundred and sixty (360) day year (the “US First
Rate”), it is hereby agreed that the rate or percentage of interest on a yearly basis is
equivalent to such US First Rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the year divided by
360.

     (d) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3 or any other provision of this
Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as that term is defined in Section
347 of the Criminal Code (Canada)) exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit
advanced” (as defined therein) lawfully permitted under Section 347 of the Criminal Code
(Canada). The effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally
accepted actuarial practices and principles over the term of the Loans, and in the event of a
dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Agent will
be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

     (e) A certificate of an authorized signing officer of Agent as to each amount and/or each
rate of interest payable hereunder from time to time shall be conclusive evidence of such amount
and of such rate, absent manifest error.

     (f) For greater certainty, whenever any amount is payable under any Financing Agreement by
Borrower as interest or as a fee which requires the calculation of an amount using a percentage
per annum, each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that such amount shall be
calculated as of the date payment is due without application of the “deemed reinvestment
principle” or the “effective yield method”. As an example, when interest is

- 38 -

 

calculated and payable monthly, the rate of interest payable per month is 1/12 of the stated
rate of interest per annum.

     (g) Any Euro Dollar Rate Loan shall automatically, at Agent’s option, either (i) convert to
US Prime Rate Loans upon the last day of the applicable Interest Period or (ii) be rolled over for
a further one (1) month Interest Period, unless Agent has received and approved a request to
continue such Euro Dollar Rate Loan for an Interest Period chosen by Borrower at least three (3)
Business Days prior to such last day in accordance with the terms hereof. Any Euro Dollar Rate
Loan shall, at Agent’s option, upon notice by Agent to Borrower, be subsequently converted to US
Prime Rate Loans upon the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default which is continuing and
otherwise upon the Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Agent, upon demand by Agent (or Agent
may, at its option, charge any loan account of Borrower), any amounts required to compensate Agent
and Lenders for any loss, costs or expense incurred by Agent and Lenders as a result of the
conversion of Euro Dollar Rate Loans to US Prime Rate Loans pursuant to any of the foregoing.
Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default that is continuing, or if Borrower repays
or prepays a Euro Dollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest
Period, Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders for any loss or expense suffered or incurred by
Agent or Lenders including any loss of profit or expenses Agent or Lenders incur by reason of the
liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by it to effect or maintain any
and all Euro Dollar Rate Loans or any interest or other charges payable to lenders of funds
borrowed by Agent and Lenders in order to maintain such Euro Dollar Rate Loans together with any
other charges, costs or expenses incurred by Agent and Lenders relative thereto.

     (h) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the
circumstances in Section 3.2(b) and 3.2(c) do not exist, Borrower may from time to
time request in writing Euro Dollar Rate Loans or may request in writing that US Prime Rate Loans
be converted to Euro Dollar Rate Loans or that any existing Euro Dollar Rate Loans continue for an
additional Interest Period. Such request from Borrower shall specify the amount of the Euro
Dollar Rate Loans or the amount of the US Prime Rate Loans to be converted to Euro Dollar Rate
Loans or the amount of the Euro Dollar Rate Loans to be continued (subject to the limits set forth
below) and the Interest Period to be applicable to such Euro Dollar Rate Loans. Subject to the
terms and conditions contained herein, three (3) Business Days after receipt by Agent of such a
written request from Borrower, such Euro Dollar Rate Loans shall be made or US Prime Rate Loans
shall be converted to Euro Dollar Rate Loans or such Euro Dollar Rate Loans shall continue, as
applicable; provided, that:

	 	(i)	 	no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and
be continuing;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	no party hereto shall have sent any notice of termination of
this Agreement;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Borrower shall have complied with such customary procedures as
are generally established by Agent and Lenders for all customers and specified
by Agent and Lenders to Borrower from time to time for requests by Borrower for
Euro Dollar Rate Loans;

- 39 -

 

	 	(iv)	 	no more than six (6) Interest Periods (for all outstanding Euro
Dollar Rate Loans) may be in effect at any one time;
	 
	 	(v)	 	the aggregate amount of the Euro Dollar Rate Loans must be in
an amount not less than Five Million US Dollars ($5,000,000) or an integral
multiple of One Million US Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof; and
	 
	 	(vi)	 	Agent and Lenders shall have determined that the Interest
Period or Adjusted Euro Dollar Rate is available to Agent and Lenders and can
be readily determined as of the date of the request for such Euro Dollar Rate
Loan by Borrower.

Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, any request by Borrower to Agent for Euro
Dollar Rate Loans or to convert US Prime Rate Loans to Euro Dollar Rate Loans or to continue any
existing Euro Dollar Rate Loans shall be in writing and shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Agent and Lenders shall not be required to purchase US
Dollar deposits in the London interbank market to fund any Euro Dollar Rate Loans, but the
provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Agent or Lenders had purchased such deposits to
fund the Euro Dollar Rate Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, any request
by Borrower to Agent for a US Prime Rate Loan shall be in writing, shall be irrevocable and shall
be given to Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day upon which Borrower requires such US
Prime Rate Loan to be advanced to Borrower and if such request is provided after 11:00 a.m. on a
Business Day then such US Prime Rate Loan shall be advanced on the next following Business Day.

     3.2 Increased Costs and Changes in Law

          (a) If after the date hereof, either:

	 	(i)	 	any change in (other than any change by way of imposition or
increase of reserve requirements included in the Reserve Percentage), or in the
interpretation of, any law or regulation is introduced, including with respect
to reserve requirements, applicable to a Lender or any banking or financial
institution from whom a Lender borrows funds or obtains credit (a “Funding
Bank”); or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	a Funding Bank or a Lender complies with any future guideline
or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority; or
	 
	 	(iii)	 	a Funding Bank or a Lender determines that the adoption of any
applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change
therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof has or would have the effect described
below, or a Funding Bank or a Lender complies with any request or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law where
customarily complied with by responsible financial institutions) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, and

- 40 -

 

	 	 	 	in the case of any event set forth in this clause (iii), such
adoption, change or compliance has or would have the direct or indirect
effect of reducing the rate of return on a Lender’s capital as a consequence
of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration the Funding Bank’s or Lender’s policies with respect to
capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material,

and the result of any of the foregoing events described in clauses (i),
(ii) or (iii) is or results in an increase in the cost to a Lender
of funding or maintaining the Loans, or its Commitment, then Borrower shall from
time to time upon demand by Agent pay to Agent additional amounts sufficient to
indemnify Lenders against such increased cost on an after-tax basis (after taking
into account applicable deductions and credits in respect of the amount
indemnified); provided that a Lender claiming additional amounts
under this Section 3.2(a) agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with
its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different
applicable lending office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need
for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost that may thereafter accrue and
would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous
to such Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost shall be
submitted to Borrower by Agent and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

          (b) If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

	 	(i)	 	Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding upon Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
ascertaining the Adjusted Euro Dollar Rate for such Interest Period;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Agent has received notice from a Lender that that Adjusted Euro
Dollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining
Euro Dollar Rate Loans during such Interest Period; or
	 
	 	(iii)	 	US Dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Euro Dollar
Rate Loans to which such Interest Period is to be applicable are not generally
available in the London interbank market,

Agent shall give notice thereof to Borrower as soon as practicable thereafter (which
notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist). If such
notice is given (A) any Euro Dollar Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day
of such Interest Period shall be made as a US Prime Rate Loan, (B) any Loans that
were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continue
as Euro Dollar Rate Loans shall be converted to or continued as US Prime Rate Loans
and (C) each outstanding Euro Dollar Rate Loan shall be converted, on the last day
of the then-current Interest Period

- 41 -

 

	 	 	 	thereof, to US Prime Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by Agent, no
further Euro Dollar Rate Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall
Borrower have the right to convert U.S. Prime Rate Loans to Euro Dollar Rate Loans.

     (c) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any law,
treaty, rule or regulation or final, non-appealable determination of an arbitrator or a court or
other Governmental Authority or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the
date hereof shall make it unlawful for Agent or any Lender to make or maintain Euro Dollar Rate
Loans as contemplated by this Agreement:

	 	(i)	 	Agent shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances
to Borrower (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no
longer exist); provided, however, that, before making
any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with
its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a
different Euro Dollar lending office if the making of such a designation would
allow such Lender or its Euro dollar lending office to continue to perform its
obligations to make Euro Dollar Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain
Euro Dollar Rate Loans and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be
otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the commitment of each Lender hereunder to make Euro Dollar
Rate Loans, continue Euro Dollar Rate Loans as such and convert US Prime Rate
Loans to Euro Dollar Rate Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such
time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Euro
Dollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make a US
Prime Rate Loan when a Euro Dollar Rate Loan is requested; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Euro Dollar Rate
Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to US Prime Rate Loans on the
respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such
Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion
of a Euro Dollar Rate Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the
then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrower shall pay to such
Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section
3.2(d) below.

     (d) Borrower shall indemnify Agent and each Lender and shall hold Agent and each Lender
harmless from any loss or expense which Agent or such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence
of:

	 	(i)	 	default by Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into
or extension of an Euro Dollar Rate Loan after Borrower has given a notice
requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; and

- 42 -

 

	 	(ii)	 	the making of a prepayment of Euro Dollar Rate Loans on a day
which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.

With respect to Euro Dollar Rate Loans, such indemnification may include an amount
equal to the greater of (i) the excess, if any, of (1) the amount of interest which
would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or
extended, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to
borrow, convert or extend to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in
the case of a failure to borrow, convert or extend, the Interest Period that would
have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of
interest for such Euro Dollar Rate Loans provided for herein over (2) the
amount of interest (as determined by such Agent or such Lender) which would have
accrued to Agent or such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for
a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Euro Dollar market; and (ii)
an amount equal to the interest that would have been payable if the Euro Dollar Rate
Loan had been a US Prime Rate Loan. This covenant shall survive the termination or
non-renewal of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

     (e) In the event that Borrower has hedged a Euro Dollar Rate Loan with an interest rate swap
with Agent, a Lender or any of its Affiliates under which Borrower is to make its payments based
on a fixed rate and Agent, such Lender or any of its Affiliates is to make its payments based on a
rate equal to the Adjusted Euro Dollar Rate, then the fallback rate (being the US Prime Rate in
the circumstances described in this Section 3.2) on any given day while the swap with
Agent, such Lender or any of its Affiliates is in effect will be the sum of (i) the fallback
floating rate payable by Agent, such Lender or any of its Affiliates that is in effect under the
interest rate swap for that day (without regard to any interest rate spread added thereto under
the terms of the interest rate swap) plus (ii) the percentage spread in the definition of Interest
Rate applicable to Euro Dollar Rate Loans.

     (f) In the event any Lender demands payment of costs or additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 3.2 or Section 9.4 or asserts, pursuant to Section 3.2(c), that it
is unlawful for such Lender to make Euro Dollar Rate Loans or becomes a Non-Funding Lender then
(subject to such Lender’s right to rescind such demand or assertion within ten (10) Business Days
after the notice from the Borrower referred to below) Borrower may, upon twenty (20) Business
Days’ prior written notice to such Lender and Agent, elect to cause such Lender to assign its
Loans and Commitments in full to one or more Persons selected by Borrower so long as (i) each such
Person satisfies the criteria of an Eligible Transferee and is satisfactory to Agent, (ii) such
Lender receives payment in full in cash of the outstanding principal amount of all Loans made by
it and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due and payable to such
Lender as of the date of such assignment and (iii) each such assignee agrees to accept such
assignment and to assume all obligations of such Lender hereunder in accordance with Section
11.1.

- 43 -

 

     3.3 Servicing Fee

Borrower shall pay to Agent monthly a servicing fee in an amount equal to $5,000 in respect of
Agent’s services for each month (or part thereof) while this Agreement remains in effect and for so
long thereafter as any of the non-contingent Obligations (other than Letter of Credit
Accommodations) are outstanding, which fee shall be fully earned as of and payable in advance on
the date hereof and on the first day of each month hereafter.

     3.4 Unused Line Fee

Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the account of Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares,
monthly an unused line fee at a rate equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum
calculated upon the amount by which the then applicable Maximum Revolving Credit exceeds the
average daily principal balance of the outstanding Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit
Accommodations during the immediately preceding month (or part thereof) while this Agreement is in
effect and for so long thereafter as any of the Obligations are outstanding, which fee shall be
payable on the first day of each month in arrears. For further clarity, no Obligations will be
outstanding once this Agreement has been terminated and all Obligations have been fully and
indefeasibly satisfied and cash collateral has been posted in the full amount then outstanding of
any Letter of Credit Accommodations, if any.

     3.5 Closing Fee

Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the account of Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares,
a closing fee in the amount of $400,000, which closing fee shall be fully earned by each Lender and
paid by Borrower on the date of the execution of this Agreement.

     3.6 Arrangement Fee

Borrower shall pay to Arranger, an arrangement fee in the amount of $250,000 which arrangement fee
shall be fully earned by Arranger and paid by Borrower on the date of execution of this Agreement.

SECTION 5. INTENTIONALLY DELETED

SECTION 6. COLLECTION AND ADMINISTRATION

     6.1 Borrower’s Loan Account

Agent shall maintain one or more loan account(s) on its books in which shall be recorded: (a) all
Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations and other Obligations and the Collateral; (b) all payments
made by or on behalf of Borrower; and (c) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in
this Agreement, including fees, charges, costs, expenses and interest. All entries in the loan
account(s) shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary practices as in effect from time to
time.

     6.2 Statements

Agent shall render to Borrower each month a statement setting forth the balance in Borrower’s loan
account(s) maintained by Agent for Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including
principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses. Each such statement shall be subject to subsequent
adjustment by Agent but shall, absent manifest errors or omissions, be considered correct and
deemed accepted by Borrower and conclusively binding upon Borrower as an account stated except to
the extent that Agent receives a written notice from Borrower of any specific exceptions of
Borrower thereto within thirty (30) days after the date such statement has been mailed by Agent.
Until such time as Agent shall have rendered to Borrower a written

- 48 -

 

statement as provided above, the balance in Borrower’s loan account(s) shall be presumptive
evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by Borrower.

     6.3 Collection of Accounts

     (a) Borrower shall establish and maintain, at its expense, blocked accounts (the “Blocked
Accounts”), as Agent may specify, and Agent may establish and maintain bank accounts of Agent
(“Payment Accounts”) in each case with such banks as are acceptable to Agent into which Borrower
shall, in accordance with Agent’s instructions, promptly deposit and direct its account debtors
that remit payments by electronic funds transfers to directly remit, all payments on Accounts and
all payments constituting proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral, with the exception of
payments received in connection with Excluded Accounts, in the identical form in which such
payments are made, whether by cash, cheque or other manner. The banks at which the Blocked
Accounts are established shall enter into an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to
Agent, providing that all items received or deposited in the Blocked Accounts are subject to the
first priority Lien of Agent, that the depository bank has no Lien upon, or right to set-off
against the Blocked Accounts, the items received for deposit therein, or the funds from time to
time on deposit therein and that upon receipt of Agent’s notice that a Cash Dominion Event has
occurred and is continuing, the depository bank will, without further inquiry, wire, or otherwise
transfer, in immediately available funds, on a daily basis, all funds received or deposited into
the Blocked Accounts to the Payment Accounts or such other bank account of Agent as Agent may from
time to time designate for such purpose. Borrower agrees that all payments made to such Blocked
Accounts shall be subject to the first priority security interest of Agent for the benefit of
Secured Parties and that all payments made, in accordance with this Section, to such Payment
Accounts or other funds received and collected by Agent, whether on the Accounts or as proceeds of
Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be the property of Agent on behalf of Secured
Parties to the extent of any outstanding Obligations.

     (b) Such payments made to the Payment Account (conditional upon final collection which may be
subject to fees, expenses and charges resulting from things such as the dishonour of cheques),
will be applied, for all purposes, including for purposes of calculating the amount of the
Revolving Loans available to Borrower and of calculating interest on the Obligations, to the
Obligations on the same Business Day of receipt by Agent of immediately available funds in the
Payment Account provided such payments and notice thereof are received in accordance with Agent’s
usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time and within sufficient time to credit
Borrower’s loan account on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day. If Agent receives
funds in a Payment Account at any time at which no Obligations are outstanding or in excess of
then outstanding Obligations, Agent shall hold such funds in trust for Borrower and shall, by no
later than the Business Day following receipt by Agent of: (i) immediately available funds in the
Payment Account, provided such payments and notice thereof are received in accordance with Agent’s
usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time; and (ii) a direction from Borrower
to advance such funds, advance such excess funds to the Blocked Account. Agent shall no later
than the Business Day following the day on which there ceases to be a Cash Dominion Event, deliver
to the bank at which the Blocked Account is maintained an executed “Unblocked Notice” in the form
attached to the Blocked Account Agreement.

- 49 -

 

     (c) Borrower and all of its affiliates, Subsidiaries, shareholders, directors, employees or
agents shall receive, subject to the first priority security interest of Agent, for the benefit of
Secured Parties, any monies, cheques, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or
proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral, with the exception of Excluded Accounts, which come into
their possession or under their control and immediately upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or
cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be
remitted, in kind, to Agent. Borrower agrees to reimburse Agent on demand for any amounts owed or
paid by Agent to any bank at which a Blocked Account or Payment Account is established or any
other bank or person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts or the
Payment Accounts arising out of Agent’s required payments to or indemnification of such bank or
person. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Agent for such amounts pursuant to this
Section 6.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

     6.4 Payments

     (a) All Obligations shall be payable to the Payment Account as provided in
Section 6.3 or such other place in Canada as Agent may designate from time to time. Agent
shall apply payments received or collected from Borrower or for the account of Borrower (including
the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) as follows:

	 	(i)	 	first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expenses
reimbursements then due to Agent or Lenders from Borrower;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	second, to pay interest then due in respect of any
Loans;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	third, to pay principal then due in respect of the
Loans and outstanding obligations due under Swap Agreements;
	 
	 	(iv)	 	fourth, to pay the outstanding Revolving Loans, and
after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to
pay or pre-pay such of the Term Loans, whether or not then due, in such order
and manner as Agent determines.

     (b) Payments and collections received in any currency other than Canadian Dollars or US
Dollars will be accepted and/or applied at the sole discretion of Agent. At Agent’s option, all
principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses and other charges provided for in the Financing
Agreements may be charged directly to the loan account(s) of Borrower. Borrower shall make all
payments to Agent on the Obligations free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for
or on account of, any set-off, counterclaim, defence, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees,
deductions, withholding, restrictions or conditions of any kind. If after receipt of any payment
of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the payment of, any of the Obligations, Agent is required
to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations
intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been
received by Agent. Borrower shall be liable to pay to Agent, and does hereby indemnify and hold
Agent harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds surrendered or returned. Section
6.4 shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action

- 50 -

 

which may be taken by Agent in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. The indemnification
in the second preceding sentence shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination
of this Agreement.

     6.5 Authorization to Make Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations

Each Lender is authorized to make the Loans and provide the Letter of Credit Accommodations based
upon written instructions received by Agent from the persons authorized by Borrower as notified in
writing by Borrower to Agent from time to time or, at the discretion of Lenders, if such Loans are
necessary to satisfy any Obligations. All requests for Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations
hereunder shall specify the date on which the requested advance is to be made or Letter of Credit
Accommodations established (which day shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested
Loan. Requests received after 11:00 a.m. Toronto time on any day shall be deemed to have been made
as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. All Loans and Letter of
Credit Accommodations under this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, and
at the request of and for the benefit of, Borrower when deposited to the credit of Borrower or
otherwise disbursed or established in accordance with the instructions of Borrower or in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

     6.6 Use of Proceeds

Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loans provided by Lenders to Borrower hereunder
for (a) costs, expenses and fees in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and
delivery of the Financing Agreements and (b) any remaining proceeds and all other Loans made or

shall be used by Borrower only for general operating, working capital and other proper corporate
purposes of Borrower not otherwise prohibited by the terms hereof

Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, (a) the making and conversion of Loans
shall be made by Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares as to the Loans and (b) each
payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account of one or more of Lenders in respect of
any Obligations due on a particular day shall be allocated among the Lenders entitled to such
payments based on their respective Pro Rata Shares and shall be distributed accordingly.

     6.8 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights

The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the
obligations or commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement or
any of the other Financing Agreements and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto
shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, as association, a joint venture or
any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a
separate and independent debt, and subject to Section 11.13(f) hereof, each Lender shall be
entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be

- 51 -

 

necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.

     7.8 Right to Cure

Agent may, at any time or times that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing,
at its option: (a) cure any default by Borrower under any agreement with a third party or pay or
bond on appeal any judgment entered against Borrower; (b) discharge taxes, Liens at any time levied
on or existing with respect to the Collateral; and (c) pay any amount, incur any expense or perform

amounts so expended to the Obligations and charge Borrower’s account therefor, such amounts to be
repayable by Borrower on demand. Agent shall be under no obligation to effect such cure, payment
or bonding and shall not, by doing so, be deemed to have assumed any obligation or liability of
Borrower. Any payment made or other action taken by Agent under this Section shall be without
prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default hereunder and to proceed accordingly.

     7.9 Access to Premises

     (a) From time to time as requested by Agent, at the cost and expense of Borrower: (i) Agent
or its designee shall have complete access to all of Borrower’s premises during normal business
hours and after reasonable notice to Borrower, or at any time and without notice to Borrower if an
Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, for the purposes of inspecting,
verifying and auditing the Collateral and all of Borrower’s books and records, including the
Records; and (ii) Borrower shall promptly furnish to Agent such copies of such books and records
or extracts therefrom as Agent may request, and (iii) Agent or its designee may use during normal

reasonable efforts to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures for handling
confidential information and safe and sound lending practices, any non-public information made
available by Borrower to Agent pursuant to Section 7.9(a), and all copies thereof,

(ii) to bank examiners and other regulators, auditors and/or accountants; (iii) in connection with
any litigation to which Agent or a Lender is a party; (iv) to any assignee or participant (or
prospective assignee or participant) so long as such assignee or participant (or prospective
assignee or participant), as applicable, shall have first agreed in writing to treat such
information as confidential in accordance with this Section 7.9(b); and (v) to counsel for
Agent or any Lender or any participant or assignee (or prospective participant or assignee). In
no event shall this Section 7.9(b), or any other provision of this Agreement or any
applicable law be deemed to: (i) apply to or restrict disclosure of information that has been or
is made public by Borrower or any third party without breach by Agent of this Section
7.9(b) or otherwise become generally available to the public other than as a result of a
disclosure in violation hereof; (ii) apply to or restrict disclosure of information that was or

SECTION 8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Agent and each Lender the following (which shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement), the truth and accuracy of which are a
continuing condition of the making of Revolving Loans and providing Letter of Credit Accommodations
by Lenders to Borrower:

     8.1 Corporate Existence, Power and Authority; Subsidiaries; Solvency

Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and duly organized under the laws of
its jurisdiction of incorporation and is duly qualified or registered as a foreign or
extra-provincial corporation in all provinces, states or other jurisdictions where the nature and
extent of the business transacted by it or the ownership of assets makes such qualification
necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify would not have a
material adverse effect on Borrower’s financial condition, results of operation or business or the
rights of Agent in or to any of the Collateral. The execution, delivery and performance of the
Financing Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder are all within Borrower’s
corporate powers, have been duly authorized and are not in contravention of law or the terms of
Borrower’s certificate of incorporation, by-laws, or other organizational documentation, or any
indenture, agreement or undertaking to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower or its
property are bound. The Financing Agreements constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of
Borrower enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. Borrower does not have any
Subsidiaries except as set forth on the Information Certificate. Borrower is not insolvent.

     8.2 Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Change

All financial statements relating to Borrower which have been or may hereafter be delivered by
Borrower to Agent have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly present the financial
condition and the results of operation of Borrower as at the dates and for the periods set forth
therein. Except as disclosed in any interim financial statements furnished by Borrower to Agent
prior to the date of this Agreement, there has been no material adverse change in the assets,
liabilities, properties and condition, financial or otherwise, of Borrower, since the date of the
most recent audited financial statements furnished by Borrower to Agent prior to the date of this
Agreement.

     8.3 Chief Executive Office; Collateral Locations

The chief executive office of Borrower and Borrower’s Records concerning Accounts are located only
at the address set forth on the Borrower’s signature page below and its only other places of
business and the only other locations of Collateral, if any, are the addresses set forth in the
Information Certificate, subject to the right of Borrower to establish new locations in accordance
with Section 9.2 below and to move Inventory and Equipment as permitted in Sections
7.3 and 7.4, respectively. The Information Certificate correctly identifies any of
such locations which

- 60 -

 

are not owned by Borrower and sets forth the owners and/or operators thereof and to the best of
Borrower’s knowledge, the holders of any mortgages on such locations.

     8.4 Priority of Liens; Title to Properties

The Liens granted to Agent and Original Lender under the Financing Agreements constitute valid and
perfected first priority Liens in and upon the Collateral subject only to Permitted Liens.
Borrower has good and marketable title to all of its properties and assets subject to no Liens,
except Permitted Liens.

     8.5 Tax Returns

Borrower has filed, or caused to be filed, in a timely manner (with extensions) all tax returns,
reports and declarations which are required to be filed by it (except those in respect of taxes the
calculation or payment of which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
diligently pursued and available to Borrower and except for those returns for those jurisdictions
in which failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of
Borrower). All information in such tax returns, reports and declarations is complete and accurate
in all material respects. Borrower has paid or caused to be paid all taxes due and payable or
claimed due and payable in any assessment received by it, except taxes the validity of which are
being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued and available to
Borrower and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside on its books. Adequate
provision has been made for the payment of all accrued and unpaid federal, provincial, municipal,
local, foreign and other taxes whether or not yet due and payable and whether or not disputed.

     8.6 Litigation

Except as set forth on the Information Certificate, there is no present investigation by any
Governmental Authority pending, or to the best of Borrower’s knowledge threatened, against or
affecting Borrower, its assets or business and there is no action, suit, proceeding or claim by any
Person pending, or to the best of Borrower’s knowledge threatened, against Borrower or its assets
or business, or against or affecting any transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which in each
of the foregoing cases, can reasonably be expected to result in any material adverse change in the
assets or business of Borrower or would impair the ability of Borrower to perform its obligations
under any of the Financing Agreements to which it is a party or of Agent to enforce any Obligations
or realize upon any Collateral.

     8.7 Compliance with Other Agreements and Applicable Laws

Borrower is not in default in any respect under, or in violation in any respect of any of the terms
of, any agreement, contract, instrument, lease or other commitment to which it is a party or by
which it or any of its assets are bound, including the Contracts and Leases, and Borrower is in
compliance in all respects with all applicable provisions of laws, rules, regulations, licenses,
permits, approvals and orders of any foreign, federal, provincial or local governmental authority
except for any default or lack of compliance that would not reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on (a) the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations,
performance, properties or prospects of Borrower, (b) the rights and remedies of any Agent or

- 61 -

 

any Lender under any Financing Agreement or (c) the ability of Borrower or any Obligor to performs
its obligations under any Financing Agreement to which it is a party.

     8.8 Bank Accounts

All of the deposit accounts, investment accounts or other accounts in the name of or used by
Borrower maintained at any bank or other financial institution are set forth on Schedule
8.8 hereto, subject to the right of Borrower to establish new accounts in accordance with
Section 9.17 below.

     8.9 Accuracy and Completeness of Information

All information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower in writing to Agent or a Lender in connection
with any of the Financing Agreements or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, including
all information on the Information Certificate, is true and correct in all material respects on the
date as of which such information is dated or certified and does not omit any material fact
necessary in order to make such information not misleading, in addition, the Information
Certificate attaches the form(s) of the agreements generally used for the Capital Leases and
Operating Leases, together with a breakdown of which agreements constitute Capital Leases and which
agreements constitute Operating Leases, together with any and all exceptions thereto, and have been
delivered to Agent for review. Borrower represents and warrants that none of the Contracts and
Leases include contractual provisions restricting the assignability thereof to any Lender or Agent
or to an assignee thereof upon exercise of the Financing Agreements, with the exception of those
restrictive provisions set out on Schedule 8.9 hereof. No event or circumstance has
occurred which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse affect on the
business or assets of Borrower, which has not been fully and accurately disclosed to Agent in
writing.

     8.10 Status of Pension Plans

To the best knowledge of Borrower:

     (a) The Pension Plans are duly registered under all applicable provincial pension benefits
legislation and there are no other Canadian pension plans of Borrower other than the Pension
Plans.

     (b) All obligations of Borrower (including fiduciary, funding, investment and administration
obligations) required to be performed in connection with the Pension Plans or the funding
agreements therefor have been performed in a timely fashion. There are no outstanding disputes
concerning the assets held pursuant to any such funding agreement.

     (c) All contributions or premiums required to be made by Borrower to the Pension Plans have
been made in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of the Pension Plans and applicable
laws and regulations.

     (d) All employee contributions to the Pension Plans required to be made by way of authorized
payroll deduction have been properly withheld by Borrower and fully paid into the Pension Plans in
a timely fashion.

- 62 -

 

     (e) All reports and disclosures relating to the Pension Plans required by any applicable laws
or regulations have been filed or distributed in a timely fashion.

     (f) There have been no improper withdrawals, or applications of, the assets of any of the
Pension Plans.

     (g) No amount is owing by any of the Pension Plans under the Income Tax Act (Canada) or any
provincial taxation statute.

     (h) None of the Pension Plans is a defined benefit registered pension plan or contains any
defined benefit provision.

     (i) Borrower, after diligent enquiry, has neither any knowledge, nor any grounds for
believing, that any of the Pension Plans is the subject of an investigation or any other
proceeding, action or claim. There exists no state of facts which after notice or lapse of time
or both could reasonably be expected to give rise to any such proceeding, action or claim.

     (j) Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of
ERISA, the Code and other Federal or State law. Each Plan which is intended to qualify under
Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal
Revenue Service and to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, nothing has occurred which would cause
the loss of such qualification where such loss, when combined with other such occurrences or
failures to comply, has or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on (i)
the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects
of Borrower, (ii) the rights and remedies of any Agent or any Lender under any Financing Agreement
or (iii) the ability of Borrower or any Obligor to perform its obligation under any Financing
Agreements to which it is party. Each Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates have made all required
contributions to any Plan subject to Section 412 of the Code, and no application for a
funding waiver has been made with respect to any Plan.

     (k) Except as set forth in the Information Certificate, there are no pending, or to the best
of Borrower’s knowledge, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental
Authority, with respect to any Plan. Except as set forth in the Information Certificate, there
has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules that would
reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to the Plan.

     (l) Except as set forth in the Information Certificate, (i) no ERISA Event has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur that would reasonably be expected to result in a material liability
to the Plan; (ii) Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred and do not reasonably expect
to incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Plan (other than
premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA); (iii) Borrower and its ERISA
Affiliates have not incurred and do not reasonably expect to incur any liability (and no event has
occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in
such liability) under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a
Multiemployer Plan; and (iv) Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates have not engaged in a transaction
that would be subject to Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.

- 63 -

 

     8.11 Environmental Compliance

     (a) Borrower has not generated, used, stored, treated, transported, manufactured, handled,
produced or disposed of any Hazardous Materials, on or off its premises (whether or not owned by
it) in any manner which at any time violates any applicable Environmental Law or any license,
permit, certificate, approval or similar authorization thereunder which may be expected to have a
material adverse effect on Borrower and the operations of Borrower comply in all material respects
with all Environmental Laws and all licenses, permits, certificates, approvals and similar
authorizations thereunder.

     (b) There is no investigation, proceeding, complaint, order, directive, claim, citation or
notice by any Governmental Authority or any other person nor is any pending or to the best of
Borrower’s knowledge threatened, with respect to any non-compliance with or violation of the
requirements of any Environmental Law by Borrower or the release, spill or discharge, threatened
or actual, of any Hazardous Material or the generation, use, storage, treatment, transportation,
manufacture, handling, production or disposal of any Hazardous Materials or any other
environmental, health or safety matter, which affects Borrower or its business, operations or
assets or any properties at which Borrower has transported, stored or disposed of any Hazardous
Materials.

     (c) Borrower has no material liability (contingent or otherwise) in connection with a
release, spill or discharge, threatened or actual, of any Hazardous Materials or the generation,
use, storage, treatment, transportation, manufacture, handling, production or disposal of any
Hazardous Materials.

     (d) Borrower has all licenses, permits, certificates, approvals or similar authorizations
required to be obtained or filed in connection with the operations of Borrower under any
Environmental Law and all of such licenses, permits, certificates, approvals or similar
authorizations are valid and in full force and effect.

     (e) Borrower does not maintain and is not required by applicable law or otherwise to
establish and maintain a system to assure and monitor its continued compliance with all
Environmental Laws in all of its operations. In the event Borrower establishes such a system it
shall include annual reviews of such compliance by employees or agents of Borrower who are
familiar with the requirements of the Environmental Laws and copies of all environmental surveys,
audits, assessments, feasibility studies and results of remedial investigations shall be promptly
furnished, or caused to be furnished, by Borrower to Agent all at Borrower’s expense.

Obligor is a party.

execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been made again to Agent and
each Lender on the date of each additional borrowing or other credit accommodation

regardless of any investigation made or information possessed by Agent or any Lender. The
representations and warranties set forth herein shall be cumulative and in addition to any other
representations or warranties which Borrower shall now or hereafter give, or cause to be given, to
Agent or any Lender.

     8.14 U.S. Legislation

     (a) Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (i) is a Sanctioned Person,
(ii) has any of its assets in Sanctioned Entities, or (iii) derives any of its operating income
from investments in, or transactions with, Sanctioned Persons or Sanctioned Entities. The
proceeds of the Loans will not be used and have not been used to fund any operations in, finance
any investments or activities in, or make any payments to, a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned
Entity.

     (b) None of the requesting or borrowing of the Loans or the requesting or issuance, extension

Federal, Provincial or local governmental authority, including all statutes, rules, regulations,
orders, permits and stipulations relating to environmental pollution and employee health and

conditions (financial or otherwise).

     (b) Borrower shall take prompt and appropriate action to respond to any non-compliance with
any of the Environmental Laws and shall regularly report to Agent on such response.

any event involving the actual release, spill or discharge of any Hazardous Material that would be
in violation of Environmental Laws; or (ii) any investigation, proceeding, complaint, order,
directive, claims, citation or notice with respect to: (A) any non-compliance with or violation of
any Environmental Law by Borrower, or (B) the release, spill or discharge, threatened or actual,

avoid any material non-compliance, with any Environmental Law, Borrower shall, at Agent’s request
and Borrower’s expense: (i) cause an independent environmental engineer acceptable to Agent to
conduct such tests of the site where Borrower’s

- 66 -

 

non-compliance or alleged non-compliance with such Environmental Laws has occurred as to such

the results of such tests, a proposed plan for responding to any environmental problems described

such engineer whenever the scope of such non-compliance, or Borrower’s response thereto or the
estimated costs thereof, shall change in any material respect.

     (e) Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent and each Lender and their respective
directors, officers, employees, agents, invitees, representatives, successors and assigns, from
and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including

Borrower and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside on its books. Borrower
shall be liable for any tax or penalties imposed on Agent or a Lender as a result of the financing
arrangements provided for herein and Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Agent and each Lender
harmless with respect to the foregoing, and to repay to Agent and/or a Lender, as the case may be,
on demand the amount thereof, and until paid by Borrower such amount shall be added and deemed part
of the Revolving Loans, provided, that, nothing contained herein shall be construed to require
Borrower to pay any income, capital, financial institution or franchise taxes attributable to the
income of Agent or Lenders from any amounts charged or paid hereunder to Agent or Lenders, and
provided, further that any Lender claiming any additional amounts hereunder agrees to use
reasonable efforts (consistent with the internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to
change its applicable lending office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or
reduce the amount of any such additional amount that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the
reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. The foregoing
indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

     9.5 Insurance

     (a) Borrower shall, at all times, maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers
insurance with respect to the Collateral against loss or damage and all other insurance of the

reputation engaged in the same or similar businesses and similarly situated. Said policies of
insurance shall be satisfactory to Agent, acting in good faith, as to form, amount and insurer.
Borrower shall furnish certificates, policies or endorsements to Agent as Agent shall require as

- 67 -

 

proof of such insurance, and, if Borrower fails to do so Agent is authorized, but not
required, to obtain such insurance at the expense of Borrower. All policies shall provide for at
least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Agent of any cancellation or reduction of coverage
and that Agent may act as attorney for Borrower in obtaining, and at any time an Event of Default
exists or has occurred and is continuing, adjusting, settling, amending and cancelling such
insurance.

     (b) Borrower shall cause Agent to be named as a loss payee and/or an additional insured, as
applicable (but without any liability for any premiums) under such insurance policies and Borrower
shall obtain non-contributory lender’s loss payable endorsements to all insurance policies (other
than third party liability policies) in form and substance satisfactory to Agent. Such lender’s
loss payable endorsements shall specify that at any time an Event of Default exists or has
occurred and is continuing, the proceeds of such insurance shall all be payable to Agent as its
interests may appear and at all other times in accordance with Section 9.5(c).

     (c) Subject to Section 9.5(b) hereof, the proceeds of insurance:

	 	(i)	 	which are equal to or less than $2,000,000 per occurrence shall
be payable to Borrower;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	which are greater than $2,000,000 and less than $10,000,000 per
occurrence, shall be payable to Borrower and Borrower shall provide Agent with
evidence, satisfactory to Agent in its discretion, that such Collateral can be

hundred and eighty (180) day period otherwise Borrower shall remit all such
proceeds directly into the Payment Account and to be dealt with in accordance
with Section 6.3 hereof; or
	 
	 	(iii)	 	which are greater than $10,000,000 per occurrence, shall be
payable directly to Agent and in the event that such Collateral can be repaired
and/or replaced within one hundred and eighty (180) days from the date Agent
receives such proceeds, Borrower shall provide evidence, within five (5) days
from the date Agent receives such proceeds, to Agent that such Collateral can

     10.2 Remedies

     (a) At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall
have all rights and remedies provided in the Financing Agreements, the PPSA, UCC and other
applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised without notice to or consent by
Borrower or any Obligor (and shall be exercised if directed by Required Lenders), except as such
notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder or required by applicable law. All rights,
remedies and powers granted to Agent and Lenders, under any of the Financing Agreements, the PPSA,
UCC or other applicable law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in Agent’s or Lenders’
discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more occasions, and shall
include the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or
threatened breach by Borrower of any of the Financing Agreements. Agent may, (and shall upon the
instruction of Required Lenders) at any time or times, proceed directly against Borrower or any
Obligor to collect the Obligations (except under or in connection with Swap Agreements) without
prior recourse to the Collateral.

     (b) Without limiting the foregoing and subject to Section 10.2(c) hereof, at any time
an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (and shall upon the
instruction of Required Lenders), in its discretion: (i) accelerate the payment of all outstanding
Obligations (except under or in connection with Swap Agreements) and demand immediate payment
thereof to Agent (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in
Sections 10.1(f) and 10.1(g), all outstanding Obligations (except under or in
connection with Swap Agreements) shall automatically become immediately due and payable);
(ii) with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises

- 83 -

 

on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of the Collateral or
complete processing, manufacturing and repair of all or any portion of the Collateral and carry on
the business of Borrower; (iii) require Borrower, at Borrower’s expense, to assemble and make
available to Agent any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by Agent;
(iv) collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, set-off and realize upon any and all Collateral;
(v) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located
for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other disposition thereof or for any other
purpose; (vi) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all
Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any
exchange, broker’s board, at any office of Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Agent
may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with Agent having the right to
purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing
being free from any right or equity of redemption of Borrower, which right or equity of redemption
is hereby expressly waived and released by Borrower; (vii) without limiting clause (vi), grant a
general, special or other license in respect of any aspect of the Collateral on an exclusive or
non-exclusive basis to any person throughout the world or any part of it and on such terms and on
such conditions as Agent may consider appropriate; (viii) enforce against any licensee or other
person all rights and remedies of Borrower with respect to all or any part of the Collateral, and
take or refrain from taking any action that Borrower might take with respect to any of those
rights and remedies, and for this purpose Agent shall have the exclusive right to enforce or
refrain from enforcing those rights and remedies, and may in the name of Borrower and at its
expense retain and instruct counsel and initiate any court or other proceeding that Agent
considers necessary or expedient; (ix) take any step necessary to preserve, maintain or insure the
whole or any part of the Collateral or to realize upon any of it put it in vendable condition, and
any amount paid as a result of any taking any such steps shall be a cost the payment of which is
secured by this Agreement; (x) borrow money and use the Collateral directly or indirectly in
carrying on Borrower’s business or as security for loans or advances for any such purposes; (xi)
require Borrower to immediately begin using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all
consents and to provide all notices to any Client, as applicable, which may be required to permit
Agent to assign the Eligible Contracts and Leases; (xii) grant extensions of time and other
indulgences, take and give up security, accept compositions, grant releases and discharges, and
otherwise deal with Borrower, debtors of Borrower, sureties and others as Agent may see fit
without prejudice to the liability of Borrower or Agent’s right to hold and realize the security
interest created under any Financing Agreement; and/or (xiii) terminate this Agreement. If any of
the Collateral is sold or leased by Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the
Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected
by Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law, five (5) days prior notice
by Agent to Borrower designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any
private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be
reasonable notice thereof and Borrower waives any other notice. In the event Agent institutes an
action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy,
Borrower waives the posting of any bond which might otherwise be required.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.2:

- 84 -

 

	 	(i)	 	for the duration of the IP Grace Period, Agent shall not be permitted to

assignable perpetual license to use the IP Collateral required to enable Agent

	 	(iv)	 	upon the commencement of the IP Grace Period, Agent may sell,
transfer, assign and/or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, other than the IP
Collateral, to any transferee or assignee, and
	 
	 	(v)	 	subsequent to the expiry of the IP Grace Period, provided that
an Event of Default is then continuing, Agent may sell, transfer, assign and/or
otherwise dispose of any of the IP Collateral up to a maximum amount equal to
the outstanding Obligations together with all costs, charges and expenses
incurred by Agent as a result of enforcing against the IP Collateral and
Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Agent (and all persons
designated by Agent) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and
authorizes Agent (and all persons designated by Agent) to effect the foregoing.

     (d) Agent may apply the cash proceeds of Collateral actually received by Agent from any sale,
lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations in the
order set forth in Section 6.4(a).

Borrower shall remain liable to Agent for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the
highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of enforcement including legal costs
and expenses.

     (e) Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is
continuing, Agent or Lenders may, at their option, without notice, (i) cease making Revolving
Loans or arranging Letter of Credit Accommodations or reduce the Lending Formulas or amounts of
Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations available to Borrower and/or (ii) terminate
any provision of this Agreement providing for any future Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit
Accommodations to be made by Lenders to Borrower.

     (f) Agent may appoint, remove and reappoint any person or persons, including an employee or
agent of Agent or a Lender to be a receiver (the “Receiver”) which term shall include a receiver
and manager of, or agent for, all or any part of the Collateral. Any such Receiver shall, as far
as concerns responsibility for his acts, be deemed to be the agent of Borrower and not of Agent or
Lenders, and Agent and Lenders shall not in any way be

 - 85 - 

 

responsible for any misconduct, negligence or non-feasance of such Receiver, his employees or
agents. Except as otherwise directed by Agent, all money received by such Receiver shall be
received in trust for and paid to Agent. Such Receiver shall have all of the powers and rights of
Agent described in this Section 10.2. Agent may, either directly or through its agents or
nominees, exercise any or all powers and rights of a Receiver.

     (g) Where Agent realizes upon any of the Collateral, and in particular upon any of the IP
Collateral, Borrower shall provide without charge its know-how and expertise relating to the use
and application of the Collateral, and in particular shall instruct Agent, and any purchaser of
the Collateral designated by Agent, concerning any IP Collateral including any confidential
information or trade secrets of Borrower. For greater certainty, the parties agree that unless
such confidential information or trade secrets form part of the Collateral being realized upon,
such confidential information or trade secrets shall be provided for use only subject to any
agreement regarding the confidentiality thereof or for the protection thereof as may be reasonably
requested by Borrower.

     (h) Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by Agent or
Lenders or any Receiver or any nominee or agent of Agent or Lenders, whether directly or for
services rendered (including solicitor’s costs on a solicitor and his own client basis, auditor’s
costs, other legal expenses and Receiver remuneration) in enforcing any Financing Agreement and in
enforcing or collecting Obligations and all such expenses together with any money owing as a
result of any borrowing permitted hereby shall be a charge on the proceeds of realization and

SECTION 11. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT

     11.1 Assignment and Participations

     (a) Subject to the terms of this Section 11.1, any Lender may make an assignment or
sale of participations in, at any time or times, the Financing Agreements, Loans and any
Commitment or any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender’s rights, title,
interests, remedies, powers or duties thereunder. Any assignment by a Lender shall:

	 	(i)	 	be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	require the consent of Agent and Borrower provided
that:

	 	(A)	 	such consent is not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed; and
	 
	 	(B)	 	the consent of Borrower shall not be required
if:

	 	(I)	 	an Event of Default or Default
shall have occurred and be continuing; or
	 
	 	(II)	 	such assignment is to an Eligible
Transferee;

	 	(iii)	 	not be to a Prohibited Transferee;

 - 86 - 

 

	 	(iv)	 	be effected by the execution of an assignment Agreement (an
“Assignment Agreement”) substantially in the form attached hereto as
Schedule 11.1(a)(iv) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent;
	 
	 	(v)	 	be conditioned on such assignee Lender representing to the
assigning Lender and Agent that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be
assigned to it for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a view
to the distribution thereof; and
	 
	 	(vi)	 	include a payment to Agent of an assignment fee of Three
Thousand Five Hundred US Dollars ($3,500).

In the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 11.1, the assignee shall have,
to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as all other Lenders
hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its
Commitments or assigned portion thereof from and after the date of such assignment. Borrower
hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment shall give rise to a direct obligation of
Borrower to the assignee and that the assignee shall be considered to be a “Lender”. In all
instances, each Lender’s liability to make Loans hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall
be limited to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment. In the event any Lender
assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, such Lender shall so notify
Borrower and Borrower shall, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, execute new Term Notes in
exchange for the Term Notes, if any, being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section 11.1(a), any Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and such
Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements to the Bank of Canada or
the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation; provided, that no such pledge to the Bank
of Canada or the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation shall release such Lender from such Lender’s
obligations hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement.

     (b) Any sale of a participation by a Lender of all or any part of its Commitments shall be
made with the understanding that all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as
if that Lender had not sold such participation, and that the holder of any such participation
shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except
actions directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal amount of, or interest rate or fees
payable with respect to any Loan in which such holder participates, (ii) any extension of the
scheduled amortization of the principal amount of any Loan in which such holder participates or
the final maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of the
Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Financing
Agreements). Neither Agent nor any Lender (other than a Lender selling a participation) shall
have any duty to any participant and may continue to deal solely with Lenders selling a
participation as if no such sale had occurred. No consent of Borrower is required with respect to
the sale of a participation by a Lender of all or any part of its Commitment. No sale of a
participation by a Lender of all or any part of its Commitment shall be made to a Prohibited
Transferee.

 - 87 - 

 

     (c) Except as expressly provided in this Section 11.1, no Lender shall, as between
Borrower and that Lender, or Agent and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations
hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of
participation in, all or any part of the Loans, the Term Notes or other Obligations owed to such
Lender.

     (d) Borrower shall assist any Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under
this Section 11.1 as reasonably required to enable the assigning or selling Lender to
effect any such assignment or participation, including the execution and delivery of any and all
agreements, notes and other documents and instruments as shall be requested, the preparation of
informational materials for, and the participation of management in meetings with, potential
assignees or participants. Borrower shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy of
all descriptions of Borrower and its respective affairs contained in any selling materials
provided by it and all other information provided by it and included in such materials.

     (e) A Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower in the possession of such Lender
from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants)
provided such Persons agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information.

     (f) Borrower may not assign its rights under the Financing Agreements and any other document
referred to herein or therein without the prior written consent of Agent and all Lenders.

     11.2 Appointment of Agent

     (a) Agent is hereby appointed to act on behalf of Lenders as Agent under this Agreement and
the other Financing Agreements. The provisions of this Section 11.2 are solely for the
benefit of Agent and Lenders and neither Borrower nor any other Person shall have any rights as a
third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties
under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, Agent shall act solely as an agent and
mandatory of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation
toward or relationship of agency, mandatory or trust with or for Borrower or any Person other than
Lenders. Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in
this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and
administrative in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this
Agreement, any other Financing Agreement or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any
Lender. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, Agent
shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for failure to disclose, any
information relating to Borrower, Obligors or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any account
debtor that is communicated to or obtained by Agent or any of its affiliates in any capacity.
Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement, or in connection herewith or
therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct as
determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on them.

 - 88 - 

 

     (b) If Agent shall request instructions from all Lenders, all affected Lenders or Required
Lenders, as the case may be, with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in
connection with this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, then Agent shall be entitled to
refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received
instructions from all Lenders, all affected Lenders or Required Lenders, as the case may be, and
Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Agent shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Financing
Agreement (i) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or the terms of
this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement; (ii) if such action would, in the opinion of
Agent, expose Agent to liabilities under Environmental Laws; or (iii) if Agent shall not first be
indemnified to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by
it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no
Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or
refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement in accordance with the
instructions of all Lenders, all affected Lenders or Required Lenders, as the case may be.

     11.3 Agent’s Reliance, Etc.

Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or
employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in
connection with this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements, except for damages caused by its
or their own negligence or wilful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment
or court order binding on them. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (i) may
treat the payee of any Term Note as the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of the
assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent;
(ii) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by
it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or
representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Financing
Agreements; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the other Financing
Agreements on the part of Borrower or to inspect the Collateral (including the books and records)
of Borrower; (v) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Financing
Agreements or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (vi) shall
incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements by
acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper
party or parties.

     11.4 Agent and Affiliates

With respect to any of its Commitments hereunder, Agent shall have the same rights and powers under
this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements as any other Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly
indicated, include Agent in its individual capacity. Agent and its Affiliates

 - 89 - 

 

may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower, any of
its Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Borrower or any such
Affiliate, all as if Agent were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders.
Agent and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in
connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.
Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest between Agent as a Lender and Agent as
agent hereunder.

     11.5 Lender Credit Decision

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other
Lender and based on the Information Certificate and such other documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit and financial analysis of Borrower and its own decision to
enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
action under this Agreement. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each
other Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly
consents to, and waives any claim based upon, such conflict of interest.

     11.6 Indemnification

Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the
obligations of Borrower hereunder), rateably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares, from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on,
incurred by, or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or
any other Financing Agreement or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent in connection
therewith; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct as determined by a final
and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Agent. Without limiting the foregoing, each
Lender agrees to reimburse Agent promptly upon demand for its rateable share according to its Pro
Rata Share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by Agent
in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in
respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each other Financing Agreement, to
the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Borrower.

     11.7 Failure to Act

Except for action expressly required of Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements,
Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder
unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from Lenders of their

 - 90 - 

 

indemnification obligations under Section 11.6 hereof against any and all liability and
expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

     11.8 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Financing Agreements

Each Lender authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Financing
Agreements. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement or the other Financing Agreements and the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth
therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be
binding upon Lenders.

     11.9 Field Audit, Examination Reports and other Information; Disclaimer by Lenders.

By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

     (a) is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish such Lender, within a reasonable time
after it becomes available to Agent, a copy of each field audit, examination report, Compliance
Certificate, Borrowing Base Certificate and/or other documentation (each such audit, report,
certificate or documentation being referred to herein as a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”);

     (b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent (i) does not make any representation or
warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, or (ii) shall not be liable for any information
contained in any Report;

     (c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or
examinations, that Agent or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only
specific information regarding Borrower and will rely significantly upon Borrower’s books and
records, as well as on representations of Borrower’s personnel; and

     (d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use and not to
distribute or use any Report in any other manner.

     11.10 Collateral Matters

     (a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent at its option and in its discretion to release
any Lien upon any of the Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and
satisfaction of all of the Obligations and delivery of cash collateral to the extent required
under Section 13.1 below; or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if
Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section
9.7 hereof (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further enquiry);
or (iii) constituting property in which Borrower did not own an interest at the time the Lien was
granted or at any time thereafter; or (iv) if required under the terms of any of the other
Financing Agreements, including any intercreditor agreement; or (v) approved, authorized or
ratified in writing in accordance with Section 11.15 hereof. Except as provided above,
Agent will not release any Lien upon any of the Collateral without the prior written authorization
required in accordance with Section 11.15 hereof.

 - 91 - 

 

     (b) Without any manner limiting Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further
authorization or consent by applicable Lenders, each Lender, as applicable, agrees to confirm in
writing, upon request by Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon Agent under
this Section. Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such
documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Agent upon any
Collateral to the extent set forth above; provided, that, (i) Agent shall not be
required to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to
liability or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien
without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or
impair the Obligations or any Lien upon (or obligations of any Borrower in respect of) the
Collateral retained by Borrower.

     (c) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to
investigate, confirm or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for,
protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the
eligibility criteria applicable in respect of the Loans hereunder, or whether any particular
reserves are appropriate, or that the Liens granted to Agent pursuant hereto or any of the
Financing Agreements or otherwise have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created,
perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all
or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue
exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this
Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, it being understood and agreed that in
respect of Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner
it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a
Lender and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Lender.

     11.11 Successor Agent

Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof
to Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right to
appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders
and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s giving
notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor
Agent, which shall be a Lender, if a Lender is willing to accept such appointment, or otherwise
shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of a commercial bank or
financial institution if such commercial bank or financial institution or other entity whose
business includes making commercial loans, in each case, is organized under the laws of Canada or
of any province thereof. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing,
within thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by the resigning Agent,
such resignation shall become effective and Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the
duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as
provided above. Any successor Agent appointed by Required Lenders hereunder shall be subject to
the approval of Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
provided, that such approval shall not be required if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a
successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any

 - 92 - 

 

appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning Agent’s
resignation, the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in
favour of such resigning Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder,
the provisions of this Section 11 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent under this Agreement and the other Financing
Agreements.

     11.12 Setoff and Sharing of Payments

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of
limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default and subject to Section 11.13(f), each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or
from time to time, without notice to Borrower or to any other Person other than Agent, any such
notice being hereby expressly waived, to setoff and to appropriate and to apply any and all
balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of Borrower (regardless of whether such
balances are then due to Borrower) and any other properties or assets at any time held or owing by
that Lender to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower against and on account of any of
the Obligations that are not paid when due; provided, that Lenders exercising such
setoff rights shall give notice thereof to Borrower promptly after exercising such rights. Any
Lender exercising a right of setoff or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the
Obligations in excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other Lender
shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as
would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the amount so setoff or otherwise received with
the other Lender in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Borrower agrees, to the
fullest extent permitted by law that (a) any Lender may exercise its right to setoff with respect
to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and may sell participations in such
amounts so setoff to the other Lenders; and (b) any Lender so purchasing a participation in a Loan
made or other Obligations held by the other Lenders may exercise all rights of setoff, bankers’
lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender
were a direct holder of the Loan and the other Obligations in the amount of such participation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the setoff amount or payment otherwise
received is thereafter recovered from a Lender that has exercised the right of setoff, the purchase
of participations by that Lender shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without
interest.

     11.13 Advances; Payments; Non-Funding Lenders; Information; Actions in Concert

     (a) Advances; Payments

	 	(i)	 	In each funding notice provided by Agent to a Lender hereunder,
Agent shall provide such Lender with written confirmation (by telephone,
telecopy or email (if such Lender has provided email notice coordinates to
Agent)) that all conditions precedent hereunder to such funding have been
satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof.

 - 93 - 

 

	 	(ii)	 	Each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of such Loan available to Agent in same day funds by wire transfer to
Agent’s account not later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the requested
funding date (which must be a Business Day). After receipt of such wire
transfers (or, in Agent’s sole discretion, before receipt of such wire
transfers), subject to the terms hereof, Agent shall make the requested Loan to
Borrower. All payments by each Lender shall be made without setoff,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	On the 2nd Business Day of each calendar month or more
frequently at Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement Date”), Agent shall advise
each Lender by telephone, telecopy or email (if such Lender has provided email
notice coordinates to Agent) of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of
principal, interest and fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to
each applicable Loan. Provided that each Lender has funded all payments and
Loans required to be made by it and purchased all participations required to be
purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements as of
such Settlement Date, Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of principal, interest and fees paid by Borrower since the previous
Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the portion of the Loans held
by it. To the extent that any Lender (a “Non-Funding Lender”) has failed to
fund all such payments and Loans or failed to fund the purchase of all such
participations, Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding short-fall
against that Non-Funding Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments received from
Borrower. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender’s
account not later than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the next Business Day
following each Settlement Date.

     (b) Availability of Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Agent may assume that each Lender will
make its Pro Rata Share of each Loan available to Agent on each funding date (which must be a
Business Day). If such Pro Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to Agent by such Lender when due,
Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender without setoff,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata
Share forthwith upon Agent’s demand, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Borrower shall
immediately repay such amount to Agent. Nothing in this Section 11.13(b) or elsewhere in
this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds
on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfil its Commitment
hereunder or to prejudice any rights that a Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of
any default by such Lender hereunder. To the extent that Agent advances funds to Borrower on
behalf of any Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such Loan is made,
Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such advance until
reimbursed by the applicable Lender.

     (c) Return of Payments.

 - 94 - 

 

	 	(i)	 	If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the
belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by
Agent from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then
Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand
without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by
Agent under this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other
Person pursuant to any bankruptcy or insolvency law or otherwise, then,
notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other
Financing Agreement, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion
thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand
any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together
with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower or
such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

     (d) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Loan or
any payment required by it hereunder on the date specified thereof, shall not relieve the other
Lenders (each such other Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such Loan or
purchase such participation on such date, but neither any Other Lender nor Agent shall be
responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Loan, purchase a participation or
make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the
contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect
to any Financing Agreement or constitute a “Lender” for any voting or consent rights under or with
respect to any Financing Agreement. At Borrower’s request, Agent or a Person acceptable to Agent
shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no
obligation) to purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each Non-Funding Lender agrees that it
shall, at Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the Commitments of that
Non-Funding Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by such
Non-Funding Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of
sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement.

     (e) Dissemination of Information. Agent shall use reasonable efforts to provide
Lenders with any notice of any Event of Default received by Agent from, or delivered by Agent to
Borrower, with notice of any Event of Default of which Agent has actually become aware and with
notice of any action taken by Agent following any Event of Default and with any notice received
from Borrower pursuant to Section 9.7(b)(vii); provided, that Agent shall
not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is
attributable to Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct as determined by a final and
non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Agent.

     (f) Actions in Concert. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
each Lender hereby agrees with Agent and each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to
protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements
(including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written

 - 95 - 

 

consent of Agent and all other Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action
to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements shall be
taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent, all Lenders, affected Lenders
or Required Lenders, as the case may be.

     11.14 Meetings of Lenders

Any Lender is entitled to call a meeting of all Lenders on not less than ten (10) Business Days
prior written notice to all other Lenders for the purposes of considering any matters relevant to
this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and/or in respect of the Obligations

     11.15 Approval of Lenders and Agent

     (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to Section
11.15(b), no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor consent to any
departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by the Required Lenders, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given;

	 	(i)	 	provided that no amendment, waiver or consent
shall, unless in writing and signed by all affected Lenders (other than a
Non-Funding Lender) do any of the following at any time:

	 	(A)	 	reduce the rate or amount of any principal,
interest or fees payable by Borrower or alter the currency or mode of
calculation or computation thereof;
	 
	 	(B)	 	extend the time for payments required to be
made by Borrower or the Maturity Date;
	 
	 	(C)	 	increase any Lender’s Commitment;
	 
	 	(D)	 	change the definition of Required Lenders, any
provision of this Section 11.15 or reduce the voting
percentages hereunder, or
	 
	 	(E)	 	change the payment waterfall in Section
6.4(a) hereof,

	 	(ii)	 	provided further that no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all Lenders (other
than a Non-Funding Lender) do any of the following at any time:

	 	(A)	 	release all or substantially all of the value
of the collateral under any Financing Agreement or any guarantee of the
Obligations;
	 
	 	(B)	 	permit Borrower or any Obligor to assign its
rights under the Financing Agreements;
	 
	 	(C)	 	amend the Pro Rata sharing provisions
hereunder; or

 - 96 - 

 

	 	(D)	 	amend the voting percentages hereunder.

     (b) Notwithstanding Section 11.15(a), Agent may, without the consent of Lenders, make
amendments to the Financing Agreements that are for the sole purpose of curing any immaterial or
administrative ambiguity, defect or inconsistency. Agent shall, within a reasonable time, notify
Lenders or any such action. Notwithstanding Section 11.15(a), no amendment, waiver or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent in addition to Lenders required above to take
such action, affect the rights or duties of Agent under this Agreement or any of the other
Financing Agreements. Notwithstanding Section 11.15(a), no amendment, waiver or consent
shall, unless in writing and signed by the applicable counterparty to a Swap Agreement (other than
Borrower), in addition to Lenders required above to take such action, release all or substantially
all of the value of the collateral under any Financing Agreement or any guarantee of the
Obligations or amend Section 6.4(a) or Section 11.15(b).

SECTION 12. JURY TRIAL WAIVER; OTHER WAIVERS AND CONSENTS; GOVERNING LAW

     12.1 Governing Law; Choice of Forum; Service of Process; Jury Trial Waiver

     (a) The validity, interpretation and enforcement of the Financing Agreements and any dispute
arising out of the relationship between the parties hereto, whether in contract, tort, equity or
otherwise, shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada
applicable therein.

     (b) Borrower, Lenders and Agent irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the Superior Court of Justice (Ontario) and waive any objection based on venue or
forum non conveniens with respect to any action instituted therein arising under any of the
Financing Agreements or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the
parties hereto in respect of any of the Financing Agreements or the transactions related hereto or
thereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort,
equity or otherwise, and agree that any dispute with respect to any such matters shall be heard
only in the courts described above (except that Agent and Lenders shall have the right to bring
any action or proceeding against Borrower or its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction
which Agent or Lenders deem necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or to
otherwise enforce their respective rights against Borrower or its property).

     (c) To the extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby waives personal service of any and all
process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by registered mail
(return receipt requested) directed to its address set forth on the signature pages hereof and
service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so
deposited in the Canadian mails, or, at Agent’s option, by service upon Borrower in any other
manner provided under the rules of any such courts. Within thirty (30) days after such service,
Borrower shall appear in answer to such process, failing which Borrower shall be deemed in default
and judgment may be entered by Agent or Lenders against Borrower for the amount of the claim and
other relief requested.

 - 97 - 

 

     (d) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW BORROWER, LENDERS AND AGENT EACH HEREBY WAIVE
ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER ANY
OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE
DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF ANY OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS
RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN
CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER,
LENDERS AND AGENT EACH HEREBY AGREE AND CONSENT THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF
ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT BORROWER, AGENT OR LENDER MAY FILE
AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE
CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

     (e) Lenders and Agent shall not have any liability to Borrower (whether in tort, contract,
equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any
way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by any Financing Agreement, or any
act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and
non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Agent or a Lender, that the losses were the
result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or wilful misconduct and Borrower hereby
waives any claims for special, punitive, exemplary, indirect or consequential damages in respect
of any breach or alleged breach by Agent or any Lender of any of the terms of this Agreement or
the other Financing Agreements except in the case of gross negligence or wilful misconduct of
Agent or any Lender as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on
Agent or Lender.

     (f) Borrower hereby expressly waives all rights of notice and hearing of any kind prior to
the exercise of rights by Agent from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default that is
continuing to repossess the Collateral with judicial process or to replevy, attach or levy upon
the Collateral or other security for the Obligations. Borrower waives the posting of any bond
otherwise required of Agent in connection with any judicial process or proceeding to obtain
possession of, replevy, attach or levy upon the Collateral or other security for the Obligations,
to enforce any judgment or other court order entered in favour of Agent, or to enforce by specific
performance, temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or any other
Financing Agreement.

     12.2 Waiver of Notices

Borrower hereby expressly waives demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest and notice of
dishonour with respect to any and all instruments and commercial paper, included in or evidencing
any of the Obligations or the Collateral, and any and all other demands and notices of any kind or
nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral and this Agreement, except such
as are expressly provided for herein. No notice to or demand on Borrower which Agent may elect to
give shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other
circumstances.

 - 98 - 

 

     12.3 Amendments and Waivers

Subject to Section 11.15, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof shall be amended
or waived, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom permitted, orally or by course of
conduct, but only by a written agreement signed by an authorized officer of each Lender and Agent,
and as to amendments, as also signed by an authorized officer of Borrower. Agent shall not, by any
act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have expressly or impliedly waived any of its
rights, powers and/or remedies unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by an authorized
officer of Agent. Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth
therein. A waiver by Agent of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Agent would otherwise
have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise.

     12.4 Waiver of Counterclaim

Borrower waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any
nature (other than compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this
Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or
thereto.

     12.5 Indemnification

Borrower shall indemnify and hold Arranger, Agent and each Lender, and their respective directors,
officers, agents, representatives, employees and counsel, harmless from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
any of them in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding commenced or
threatened related to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance
or administration of any Financing Agreements, or any undertaking or proceeding related to any of
the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission, event or transaction related or
attendant thereto or the relationship between any of Borrower and Obligor, on the other hand, and
Arranger, Agent, each Lender and their respective directors, officers, agents, representatives,
employees and counsel, on the other hand, including amounts paid in settlement, court costs, and
the fees and expenses of counsel and others incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to
defend or defending any such litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding. Such indemnification
shall not apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses resulting from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of Arranger, Agent, any Lender and/or their respective directors,
officers, agents, representatives, employees and counsel as determined pursuant to a final
non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction or to losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent relating to disputes among such indemnified parties or
to a breach of their obligations to Borrower hereunder as determined pursuant to a final
non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertaking to
indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 12.5 may be unenforceable
because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion which it is
permitted to pay under applicable law to Arranger, Agent, each Lender and their respective
directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees and counsel in satisfaction of indemnified
matters under this Section 12.5. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the
Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 13. TERM OF AGREEMENT; MISCELLANEOUS

     13.1 Term

     (a) The Financing Agreements shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the
Maturity Date unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms hereof. Upon the Maturity Date or
effective date of termination of the Financing Agreements, Borrower shall pay to Agent, in full,
all outstanding and unpaid Obligations (except under or in connection with any Swap Agreement) and
shall furnish cash collateral to Agent in such amounts as Agent determines are reasonably
necessary to secure Agent, Lenders and Secured Parties from loss, cost, damage or expense,
including legal fees and expenses, issued and outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations,
outstanding Swap Agreements and cheques or other payments provisionally credited to the
Obligations and/or as to which Agent and Lenders have not yet received final and indefeasible
payment. Such payments in respect of the Obligations and cash collateral shall be remitted by
wire transfer in US Dollars to such bank account of Agent, as Agent may, in its discretion,
designate in writing to Borrower for such purpose. Interest shall be due until and including the
next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by Borrower to the bank account designated by Agent are
received in such bank account later than 12:00 noon, Toronto time.

     (b) No termination of any of the Financing Agreements shall relieve or discharge Borrower of
its respective duties, obligations and covenants under the Financing Agreements until all
Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid, and Agent’s continuing security
interest in the Collateral and the rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders, under the Financing
Agreements and applicable law, shall remain in effect until all such Obligations have been fully
and finally discharged and paid.

     (c) If this Agreement is terminated by Borrower prior to October 31, 2013 or by Agent
pursuant to its right to terminate pursuant to Section 10.2, in view of the impracticality
and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to
a reasonable calculation of Lenders’ lost profits as a result thereof, Borrower agrees to pay to
Agent, for the account of Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Share, upon the effective
date of such termination, an early termination fee in the amount set forth below if such
termination is effective in the period indicated:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Amount	 	 	 	 	Period
	 
	(i)

	 	1.5% of Maximum Revolving
Credit and outstanding balance of
Term Loan
	 	-
	 	From the date hereof to but not
including October 31, 2010.
	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 
	(ii)

	 	1.0% of Maximum Revolving
Credit and outstanding balance of
Term Loan
	 	-
	 	On and after November 1, 2010 to and
including October 31, 2011
	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 
	(iii)

	 	0.5% of Maximum Revolving
Credit and outstanding balance of Term Loan
	 	-
	 	On and after November 1, 2011 to and
including October 31, 2013.

     Term
Loan

Such early termination fee shall be presumed to be the amount of damages sustained by Lenders as a
result of such early termination and Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances
currently existing. In addition, Agent, on behalf of Lenders, shall be entitled to such early
termination fee upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(f)
and 10.1(g) hereof, even if Agent does not exercise its right to terminate this Agreement,
or a Lender elects, at its option, to provide financing to Borrower or permit the use of cash
collateral under any applicable reorganization or insolvency legislation. The early termination
fee provided for in this Section 13.1 shall be deemed included in the Obligations.

     13.2 Notice

All notices, requests and demands hereunder shall be in writing and (a) made to Agent and Lenders
at their respective addresses set forth below and to Borrower at its chief executive office set
forth below, or to such other address as any party may designate by written notice to the other in

unenforceability shall not invalidate this Agreement as a whole, but this Agreement shall be
construed as though it did not contain the particular provision held to be invalid or unenforceable
and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced only to such extent
as shall be permitted by applicable law.

     13.4 Successors

The Financing Agreements and any other document referred to herein or therein shall be binding upon

delivered or to be delivered in connection herewith or therewith represents the entire agreement
and understanding concerning the subject matter hereof and thereof between the parties hereto, and
supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions,

     13.6 Headings

The division of this Agreement into sections and the insertion of headings and a table of contents
are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of
this Agreement.

     13.7 Judgment Currency

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of Borrower in respect of any amount due
under this Agreement shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (the “Other
Currency”) (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the
amount in the currency in which it is due (the “Agreed Currency”) that Lender may, in accordance
with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in the Other Currency (after any premium
and costs of exchange) on the Business Day immediately after the day on which Agent receives the
payment. If the amount in the Agreed Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short
of the amount originally due, Borrower shall pay all additional amounts, in the Agreed Currency, as
may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall. Any obligation of Borrower not discharged by
that payment shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be due as a separate and independent
obligation and, until discharged as provided in this section, continue in full force and effect.

     13.8 Counterparts and Facsimile

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and
delivered shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts together shall constitute one
and the same agreement. The delivery of a facsimile or pdf copy of an executed counterpart of this
Agreement shall be deemed to be valid execution and delivery of this Agreement, but the party
delivering a facsimile or pdf copy shall deliver to the other party an original copy of this
Agreement as soon as possible after delivering the facsimile or pdf copy.
