	 	(a)	 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this
Guarantee to be given or taken by one or more Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed by them in writing. Except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Security Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Guarantor and/or the Corporation. Such instrument or
instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments or so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such
instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Senior Preferred Share, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Guarantee and conclusive in favour of the Security Trustee, the Guarantor and the
Corporation, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 

  

	 	(b)	 The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the
affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution
thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than its individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Security Trustee deems sufficient.

waiver or other Act, the Guarantor may, at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other Act, but the Guarantor shall have no obligation to do so. Such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of
such Holders generally in connection therewith and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or
after such record date, but only Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite percentage of outstanding Senior Preferred Shares, or
Series thereof, have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the outstanding Senior Preferred Shares or Series (as applicable) shall be computed
as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by 

  
 -7- 

	 	 
the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee not later than eleven months after the record date.

  

	1.5	 Notices, Etc. to Security Trustee and Guarantor 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other documents provided or

than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of

such notice or in any other manner from time to time permitted by applicable laws, including, without limitation, internet-based or other electronic communications. In any case where notice to
Holders is given by mail, neither the accidental failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders, but upon such failure to mail
or such defect in any notice so mailed being discovered, the notice (as corrected to address any defects) shall be mailed forthwith to such Holder. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have
been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice. 
 Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Guarantee shall be in the English language. 

Where this Guarantee provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive
such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Security Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any
action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

The Article and Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 

 

	1.8	 Successors and Assigns

The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees in favour of the Holders the due and punctual payment of the Senior
Preferred Share Obligations, regardless of any defense (except for the defense of the payment in full thereof), right of set-off or counterclaim which the Guarantor may have or assert. If the Corporation shall
fail to pay any of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations when due, the Guarantor shall pay to the Holders entitled to receive such Senior Preferred Share Obligations immediately after demand made in writing by one or more such Holders or the
Security Trustee, but in any event within 15 days of any failure by the Corporation to pay the Senior Preferred Share Obligations when due, without any evidence that the Holders or the Security Trustee has demanded that the Corporation pay such
Senior Preferred Share Obligations or that the Corporation has failed to do so. The Guarantor’s obligation to pay Senior Preferred Share Obligations may be satisfied by (i) direct payment to the applicable Holders or (ii) payment to
the applicable Holders through the facilities of the Security Trustee. The Guarantor shall give prompt written notice to the Security Trustee in the event it makes a direct payment to the Holders hereunder. The Guarantor shall be jointly and

	2.4	 Guarantee Absolute 

The Guarantor guarantees that the Senior Preferred Share Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the

thereto. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 
  

	 	(a)	 any sale, transfer or assignment by any Holder of any Senior Preferred Shares or any right, title, benefit
or interest of such Holder therein or thereto; 

  

	 	(b)	 any amendment or change in or to, or any waiver of, any of the terms of the Senior Preferred Shares;

  

	 	(c)	 any change in the name, objects, constitution, capacity, capital or the constating documents of the
Guarantor or the Corporation; 

  

	 	(d)	 any partial payment by the Corporation, or any release or waiver, by operation of law or otherwise, of the

	 	(e)	 the extension of time for the payment by the Corporation of all or any portion of the Senior Preferred Share
Obligations or the extension of time for the performance of any other obligation under, arising out of, or in connection with, the Senior Preferred Shares;

receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the 

  
 -11- 

	 	 
benefit of, or proposal to, creditors, any reorganization, moratorium, arrangement or composition with creditors, or any readjustment of debt of, or other proceedings affecting the Corporation,
the Guarantor or any of the assets of the Corporation or the Guarantor; 

  

	 	(h)	 any circumstance, act or omission that would prevent subrogation operating in favour of the Guarantor;

  

	 	(i)	 any invalidity of, or defect or deficiency in, the Senior Preferred Shares or this Guarantee;

  

	 	(j)	 the settlement or compromise of any obligation guaranteed hereby or hereby incurred; or

  

	 	(k)	 any other circumstance, act or omission that might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a
discharge of, the Corporation or the Guarantor in respect of any of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations (other than, and to the extent of, the payment or satisfaction thereof), 

it being the intent of the Guarantor that its obligations in respect of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations shall be absolute and
unconditional under all circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment in full of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations. The Holders shall not be bound or obliged to exhaust their recourse against the Corporation or any other Persons
or to take any other action before being entitled to demand payment from the Guarantor hereunder. 
 There shall be no
obligation of the Holders to give notice to, or obtain the consent of the Guarantor with respect to the happening of any of the foregoing. 
  

	2.5	 Continuing Guarantee 

This Guarantee shall apply to and secure any ultimate balance due or remaining due to the Holders in respect of the Senior
Preferred Share Obligations and shall be binding as an absolute and continuing obligation of the Guarantor. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any of the Senior Preferred
Share Obligations must or may be rescinded, is declared or may become voidable, or must or may otherwise be returned by any Holders for any reason, including the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution or reorganization of the Corporation or upon or as
a result of the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to the Corporation or any substantial part of its property, all as though such payment had not been made. If at any time the Corporation
is precluded from making payment when due in respect of any Senior Preferred Share Obligations by reason of the provisions of the BCBCA or otherwise, such amounts shall nonetheless be deemed to be due and payable by the Corporation to the Holders
for all purposes of this Guarantee and the Senior Preferred Share Obligations shall be immediately due and payable to the Holders. This is a guarantee of payment, and not merely a deficiency or collection guarantee. 

  
 -12- 

	2.6	 Rights of Holders 

The Guarantor expressly acknowledges that: (i) this Guarantee will be deposited with the Security Trustee to be held for
the benefit of the Holders; and (ii) the Security Trustee has the right to enforce this Guarantee on behalf of the Holders. 
  

	2.7	 Subrogation 

The Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation in respect of any payment made to the Holders hereunder until such time as
the Senior Preferred Share Obligations have been fully satisfied. In the case of the liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or bankruptcy of the Corporation (whether voluntary or involuntary), or if the
Corporation makes an arrangement or compromise or proposal with its creditors, the Holders shall have the right to rank for their full claim and to receive all dividends or other payments in respect thereof until their claims in respect of the
Senior Preferred Share Obligations have been paid in full, and the Guarantor shall continue to be liable to the Holders for any balance which may be owing to the Holders by the Corporation in respect thereof. The Senior Preferred Share Obligations
shall not, however, be released, discharged, limited or affected by the failure or omission of the Holders to prove the whole or part of any claim against the Corporation. If any amount is paid to the Guarantor on account of any subrogation arising
hereunder at any time when Senior Preferred Share Obligations are due and owing and have not been fully satisfied, such amount shall be held in trust by the Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto and shall forthwith be paid to
such Holders to be credited and applied against the Senior Preferred Share Obligations. 
  

	2.8	 Independent Obligations 

The Guarantor acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Corporation with respect
to the Senior Preferred Shares and that the Guarantor shall be liable to pay the Senior Preferred Share Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Guarantee notwithstanding the occurrence of any event referred to in subsections (a)
through (k), inclusive, of Section 2.4 and regardless of whether the Holders make a demand upon the Guarantor. The Guarantor will pay the Senior Preferred Share Obligations in accordance with this Guarantee without regard to any equities
between it and the Corporation or any defence or right of set-off, compensation, abatement, combination of accounts or cross-claim that it or the Corporation may have.

SUBORDINATION OF OBLIGATIONS TO SENIOR GUARANTOR OBLIGATIONS 

AND PARI PASSU RANKING WITH CERTAIN OTHER GUARANTOR OBLIGATIONS 

 

	3.1	 Applicability of Article 

The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment, to the extent and in the
manner hereinafter set forth in the following sections of this Article 3, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Guarantor Obligations, and are pari passu, on a pro rata basis, with all other Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations
and the Security Trustee and each Holder, as a condition to and by acceptance of the benefits conferred hereby, agrees to and shall be bound by the provisions of this Article 3. 

 

	3.2	 Order of Payment 

Upon any distribution of the assets of the Guarantor on any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the
Guarantor (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings, or upon an “assignment for the benefit of creditors” or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Guarantor, or otherwise): 

 

	 	(a)	 all Senior Guarantor Obligations shall first be paid in full, or provision made for such payment, before any
payment is made on account of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations; 

  

	 	(b)	 the claim of the Holders in respect of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations will rank pari passu
with the claims of all holders of the Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations and each such Person will be entitled to receive its pro rata share of the remaining assets of the Guarantor based on the amount of its Senior Preferred Share Obligations
or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, as applicable; and 

  

	 	(c)	 any payment or distribution of assets of the Guarantor, whether in cash, property or securities, to which
the Holders or the Security Trustee on behalf of such Holders would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article 3, shall be paid or delivered by the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, or other
liquidating agent making such payment or distribution, directly to the holders of Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, as applicable, to the extent that they are entitled thereto pursuant to this Article 3, or to
their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations may have been issued, to the extent
necessary to pay all such Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations. 

  

	3.3	 Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Guarantor Obligations 

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Guarantor Obligations, Holders shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders
of Senior Guarantor Obligations to receive payments or 

  
 -14- 

 
distributions of assets of the Guarantor (to the extent of the application thereto of such payments or other assets which would have been received by the Holders but for the provisions hereof)
until the Senior Preferred Share Obligations shall be paid in full, and no such payments or distributions to Holders of cash, property or securities, which otherwise would be payable or distributable to the holders of such Senior Guarantor
Obligations pursuant to this Article 3, shall, as between the Guarantor, its creditors (other than the holders of Senior Guarantor Obligations and Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations), and the Holders, be deemed to be a payment by the Guarantor to
the holders of such Senior Guarantor Obligations or on account of such Senior Guarantor Obligations, it being understood that the provisions of this Article 3 are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the
Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Guarantor Obligations, on the other hand. 
  

	3.4	 Obligation to Pay Not Impaired 

Nothing contained in this Article 3 or elsewhere in this Guarantee is intended to or shall impair, as between the
Guarantor, its creditors (other than the holders of Senior Guarantor Obligations), and the Holders, the obligation of the Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the Senior Preferred Share Obligations in accordance
herewith, as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with this Guarantee, or affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Guarantor (other than the holders of the Senior Guarantor Obligations and Pari Passu
Guarantor Obligations); nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Security Trustee or the Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Guarantee, subject to the rights, if any, under this
Article 3 of the holders of Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations in respect of cash, property or securities of the Guarantor that are received upon the exercise of any such remedy. 

 

	3.5	 No Payment if Senior Guarantor Obligations in Default 

Upon the acceleration, demand or maturity of any Senior Guarantor Obligations whether by lapse of time, acceleration, demand
or otherwise, then, except as provided in Section 3.6, such matured Senior Guarantor Obligations shall first be paid in full, or shall first have been duly provided for, before any payment by the Guarantor is made on account of the Senior
Preferred Share Obligations. 
 In case of default with respect to any Senior Guarantor Obligations that permits the holders
thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof, unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no payment (by purchase of the Senior Preferred Shares or otherwise) shall be made by the Guarantor with respect
to the Senior Preferred Share Obligations, and neither the Security Trustee nor the Holders shall be entitled to demand, institute proceedings for the collection of, or receive any payment or benefit from the Guarantor (including without limitation
by set-off, combination of accounts or otherwise in any manner whatsoever) on account of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations after the happening of such a default (except as provided in Section 3.7),
and unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, such payments received from the Guarantor shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and, if and when the Senior Guarantor Obligations shall have become
due and payable, shall be paid over to, the holders of such Senior Guarantor 

  
 -15- 

 
Obligations or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing an amount of such Senior Guarantor Obligations
remaining unpaid, until all such Senior Guarantor Obligations shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Guarantor Obligations. 

The fact that any payment hereunder is prohibited by this Section 3.5 shall not prevent the failure to make such payment
from being an Event of Default hereunder. 
  

	3.6	 Payment on Senior Preferred Shares Permitted 

Nothing contained in this Article 3 or elsewhere in this Guarantee, or in any of the Senior Preferred Shares, shall
affect the obligation of the Guarantor to make, or prevent the Guarantor from making, at any time except during the pendency of any dissolution, winding up or liquidation of the Guarantor or reorganization proceedings specified in Section 3.2
affecting the affairs of the Guarantor, any payment on account of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations, except that the Guarantor shall not make any such payment other than as contemplated by this Article 3, if it is in default in payment of
any of its Senior Guarantor Obligations. The fact that any such payment is prohibited by this Section 3.6 shall not prevent the failure to make such payment from being an Event of Default hereunder. Nothing contained in this Article 3 or
elsewhere in this Guarantee, or in any of the Senior Preferred Shares, shall prevent the application by the Security Trustee of any moneys deposited with the Security Trustee hereunder for the purpose so deposited, to the payment of or on account of
the Senior Preferred Share Obligations unless and until the Security Trustee shall have received written notice from the Guarantor or from any holder of Senior Guarantor Obligations or from the representative of any such holder of default with
respect to any Senior Guarantor Obligations permitting the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof and that all applicable notices have been issued and cure periods have expired in respect of such default. 

 

	3.7	 Confirmation of Subordination or Pari Passu Ranking 

As a condition to the benefits conferred hereby on each Holder, each such Holder by acceptance of the benefits conferred
hereby authorizes and directs the Security Trustee, on such Holder’s behalf, to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 3, and appoints the Security Trustee as such
Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Upon request of the Guarantor, and upon being furnished with an Officer’s Certificate stating that one
or more named persons are holders of Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, or the representative or representatives of such holders, or the trustee or trustees under which any instrument evidencing such Senior Guarantor
Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations may have been issued, and specifying the amount and nature of such Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, as applicable, the Security Trustee shall enter into a written
agreement or agreements with the Guarantor and the person or persons named in such Officer’s Certificate providing that such person or persons are entitled to all the rights and benefits of this Article 3 as the holder or holders,
representative or representatives, or trustee or trustees of such Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, as applicable, specified in such Officer’s Certificate and in such agreement. Such agreement shall be conclusive
evidence that 

  
 -16- 

 
the indebtedness specified therein is Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, as applicable, however, nothing herein shall impair the rights of any holder of Senior
Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations who has not entered into such an agreement. 
  

	3.8	 Security Trustee May Hold Guarantor Obligations and Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations

 The Security Trustee is entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 3 with respect to
any Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, and nothing in this Guarantee deprives the
Security Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 
  

	3.9	 Rights of Holders of Other Guarantor Obligations and Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations Not Impaired

 No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu
Guarantor Obligations to enforce the subordination herein will at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Guarantor or by any non-compliance by the
Guarantor with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Guarantee, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. 
  

	3.10	 Altering Other Guarantor Obligations and Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations 

A holder of Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations has the right to extend, renew, modify or amend
the terms of such Senior Guarantor Obligations or Pari Passu Guarantor Obligations, as applicable, or any security therefor and to release, sell or exchange such security and otherwise to deal freely with the Guarantor or any other Person, all
without notice to or consent of the Holders or the Security Trustee and without affecting the subordination herein, the liabilities and obligations of the parties to this Guarantee or the Holders or the Security Trustee. 

 

	3.11	 Additional Indebtedness 

This Guarantee does not restrict the Guarantor from incurring any indebtedness, liabilities or obligations or from
encumbering, mortgaging, pledging or charging its properties to secure any indebtedness, liabilities or obligations.

Guarantor’s properties, securities and assets to a Person that has assumed the obligations of the Guarantor pursuant to Article 7. 

  

	 	(d)	 Upon any termination of this Guarantee the Security Trustee shall, upon request of the Guarantor, provide to

	4.2	 Suits for Enforcement by the Security Trustee 

In the event that the Guarantor fails to pay any Senior Preferred Share Obligations as required pursuant to the terms of this
Guarantee (an “Event of Default”), the applicable 

  
 -18- 

 
Holders may, subject to Section 4.6, institute judicial proceedings for the collection of the moneys so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceedings to judgment or final decree and may
enforce the same against the Corporation and/or the Guarantor and may collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Guarantor, subject to the provisions of Article 3. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Security Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its
rights and the rights of the Holders, upon being indemnified and funded to its satisfaction by the Holders, by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Security Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether
for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Guarantee or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
  

	4.3	 Security Trustee May File Proofs of Claim 

In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to the Guarantor or the property of the Guarantor and while such proceeding is pending, the Security Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

 

	 	(a)	 to file and prove a claim for any Senior Preferred Share Obligation then due and payable and to file such
other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Security Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Security Trustee, its agents and
counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

  

	 	(b)	 to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to
distribute the same in accordance with this Guarantee, 

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Security Trustee. 

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

	4.4	 Security Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Senior Preferred Shares

 All rights of action and claims under this Guarantee may be prosecuted and enforced by the Security
Trustee without the possession of any of the Senior Preferred Shares in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Security Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of
judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and 

  
 -19- 

 
advances of the Security Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the rateable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 

 

	4.5	 Application of Money Collected 

Any money collected by the Security Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order: 

FIRST, to the payment of all amounts due to the Security Trustee including, without limitation, the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Security Trustee in or about the execution of its trust, or otherwise in relation hereto, with interest thereon as herein provided; 

SECOND, to the payment of all amounts due to Holders in respect of the costs, charges, expenses and advances
incurred in connection with enforcing their rights hereunder; 
 THIRD, to the payment of all Senior Preferred
Share Obligations then due and unpaid on a pro rata basis; and 
 FOURTH, the balance, if any, to the Person
or Persons entitled thereto. 
  

	4.6	 Limitation on Suits 

No Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Guarantee, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
  

	 	(a)	 such Holder has previously given written notice to the Security Trustee of a continuing Event of Default
with respect to this Guarantee; 

  

	 	(b)	 the Holders representing not less than 25% of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of all of the then
outstanding Senior Preferred Shares affected by such Event of Default (“Defaulted Senior Preferred Shares”) shall have made written request to the Security Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its
own name as Security Trustee hereunder; 

  

	 	(c)	 the Holders of the Defaulted Senior Preferred Shares have provided to the Security Trustee reasonable
funding, if requested by the Security Trustee, and reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

 

	 	(d)	 the Security Trustee, for 15 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, has
failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

  

	 	(e)	 no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Security Trustee during such 15-day period by the Holders representing a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Defaulted Senior Preferred Shares; 

  
 -20- 

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

	4.7	 Restoration of Rights and Remedies 

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

 

	4.8	 Rights and Remedies Cumulative 

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

	4.9	 Delay or Omission Not Waiver 

No delay or omission of the Security Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of
Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, provided that any Event of Default that is cured by the Guarantor will thereafter cease to constitute an Event of Default
for purposes of this Guarantee. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Security Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Security Trustee or by the Holders,
as the case may be. 
  

	4.10	 Control by Holders 

The Holders representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Defaulted Senior Preferred
Shares shall have the right, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Security Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred on the Security Trustee, with respect to this Guarantee, provided that in each case: 
  

	 	(a)	 such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Guarantee; 

 

	 	(b)	 the Security Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Security Trustee which is not
inconsistent with such direction; and 

  
 -21- 

	 	(c)	 the Security Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in personal liability or be unjustly
prejudicial to the Holders not consenting to any such direction. 

  

	4.11	 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws 

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

	4.12	 Undertaking for Costs 

All parties to this Guarantee agree, and each Holder by acceptance of the benefits hereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that
any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Guarantee, or in any suit against the Security Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Security Trustee, the filing by any
party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable lawyers’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Guarantor, (b) any suit instituted by the Security Trustee, or (c) any
suit instituted in accordance with this Guarantee by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the Senior Preferred Share Obligations. 

ARTICLE 5 
 THE
SECURITY TRUSTEE 
  

	5.1	 Certain Duties and Responsibilities 

 

	 	(a)	 The Security Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in
this Guarantee, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Guarantee against the Security Trustee. 

  

	 	(b)	 The Security Trustee, in exercising its powers and discharging its duties prescribed or conferred by this
Guarantee, shall 

  

	 	(i)	 act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Holders, and 

 

	 	(ii)	 exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill a reasonably prudent trustee, appointed in respect of a
guarantee indenture would exercise in comparable circumstances. 

  
 -22- 

	 	(c)	 In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Security Trustee, in the exercise of its rights and duties
hereunder, may conclusively act and rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates, opinions or other evidence furnished to the Security Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Guarantee. The Security Trustee shall not be liable for or by reason of any statements of fact or recitals in this Guarantee or be required to verify the same, but all such statements or recitals are and shall be deemed to be made by the
Guarantor (or by its agents). The Security Trustee shall not in any way be responsible for the consequence of any breach on the part of the Guarantor (or by its agents) of any of the Guarantor’s covenants herein. 

 

	 	(d)	 No provision of this Guarantee shall be construed to relieve the Security Trustee from the duties imposed on
it in Section 5.1(b) or from liability for its own gross negligence or its own wilful misconduct, except that: 

  

	 	(i)	 this Section 5.1(d) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 5.1(a) and (b);

  

	 	(ii)	 the Security Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by any of its
officers, unless it shall be proved that the Security Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

  

	 	(iii)	 the Security Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in
good faith in accordance with an appropriate direction of the Holders pursuant to Section 4.10 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Security Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred upon the Security Trustee, under this Guarantee; and 

  

	 	(iv)	 no provision of this Guarantee shall require the Security Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers except as herein expressly provided. 

 

	 	(e)	 Whether or not herein expressly so provided, every provision of this Guarantee relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Security Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 

  

	5.2	 Certain Rights of Security Trustee 

Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1: 
  

	 	(a)	 the Security Trustee may rely absolutely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
resolution, Officer’s Certificate or other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
by the proper party or parties, not only as to 

  
 -23- 

	 	 
its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth or accuracy of any information therein contained; 

 

	 	(b)	 any order, request or direction of the Guarantor mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a
Guarantor Request or Guarantor Order and any resolution shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 

  

	 	(c)	 whenever in the administration of this Guarantee the Security Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter
be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Security Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may act and rely upon an Officer’s Certificate (i) as evidence of the
truth of any statements of fact, and (ii) to the effect that any particular dealing or transaction or step or thing is, in the opinion of the officers so certifying, expedient, as evidence that it is expedient; provided that the Security
Trustee may in its sole discretion, acting reasonably, require from the Guarantor or otherwise further evidence or information before acting or relying on such certificate; 

 

	 	(d)	 the Security Trustee may employ or retain such agents, counsel and other assistants as it may reasonably
require for the proper determination and discharge of its duties hereunder and shall be entitled to receive reasonable remuneration for all services performed by it and compensation for all disbursements, costs and expenses made or incurred by it in
the discharge of its duties hereunder and shall not be responsible for any misconduct on the part of any of them, any such costs and expenses which shall immediately become and form part of the Security Trustee’s fees hereunder;

  

	 	(e)	 the Security Trustee may, in relation to this Guarantee, act and rely on the opinion or advice of or on
information obtained from any counsel, notary, valuer, surveyor, engineer, broker, auctioneer, accountant or other expert, whether retained by the Security Trustee or by the Guarantor or otherwise;

Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in reliance thereon; 

  

	 	(g)	 the Security Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by
this Guarantee at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Guarantee, unless such Holders shall have furnished to the Security Trustee reasonable funding and a reasonable indemnity, satisfactory to the Security Trustee, to
protect and hold harmless the Security Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction and/or damage it may suffer by reason thereof as a condition to the commencement or
continuation of such act, action or proceeding. The Security Trustee may, before commencing or at any time during the continuance of any such act, action or proceeding require the Holders at whose

  
 -24- 

	 	 
instance it is acting, to deposit with the Security Trustee the share certificates held by them respecting the Senior Preferred Shares for which such share certificates the Security Trustee shall
issue receipts; 

  

	 	(h)	 the Security Trustee shall not be required to take notice of any default under this Guarantee, other than

Security Trustee; 

  

	 	(i)	 prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Guarantee and after the curing of any such Event
of Default which may have occurred, the Security Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent,
order, or other paper or document or any investigation of the books and records of the Guarantor (but the Security Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the
Security Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Guarantor, personally or by agent or attorney), unless requested to do so by the Act of the
Holders representing a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of all of the then outstanding Defaulted Senior Preferred Shares; provided, however, that the Security Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses or
liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation; and 

  

	 	(j)	 the Security Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder
either directly or by or through agents or attorneys, and the Security Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder. Any solicitors employed or
consulted by the Security Trustee as counsel may, but need not be solicitors for the Guarantor.

hereafter it will, within 90 days after becoming aware that a material conflict of interest exists, either eliminate the same or resign its trust hereunder. 

  

	 	(b)	 If, notwithstanding Section 5.8(a), the Security Trustee has a material conflict of interest, the

	 	(b)	 The Security Trustee may resign its trust and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities

successor trustee with respect to the Guarantee.

in the office of the Security Trustee for any other reason, the Guarantor, by Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 5.11. If, within one year after
such resignation, removal or incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor trustee has not been successfully appointed in accordance with the terms hereof, a successor trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders representing a
majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of all of the then outstanding Senior Preferred Shares and the successor Security Trustee so appointed by the Holders shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 5.11, become the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed by the Guarantor or the Holders and such appointment accepted in the manner

  
 -28- 

	 	 
required by Section 5.11, the Security Trustee (at the Guarantor’s expense) or any Holder who is a bona fide Holder may, on behalf of such Holder and all other Holders, apply to
the Ontario Superior Court of Justice for any order for the appointment of a successor trustee. 

  

	 	(f)	 The Corporation shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Security Trustee and each
appointment of a successor trustee to the Holders by mailing such notice to such Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the list of Holders maintained by the Corporation. If the Corporation shall fail to give such notice within 10 days

trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance (but subject to Section 5.11(b)), shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring trustee. On the request of the Corporation, the Guarantor or the successor
trustee, the retiring trustee shall, upon payment of its fees and expenses then unpaid, execute, acknowledge and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all such rights, powers and trusts of the retiring trustee and shall duly
assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property and money, if any, held by such retiring trustee hereunder.

desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, such successor trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring trustee to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates, (ii) add to or change any of the
provisions of this Guarantee to the extent necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture (except as specifically
provided for therein) shall constitute such trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts
hereunder administered by any other such trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, and each such successor
trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring trustee with respect to the

any, by such retiring trustee hereunder which the appointment of such successor trustee relates. 

  

	 	(c)	 Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Corporation and the Guarantor shall execute any and all

	5.13	 Not Bound to Act 

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

to receive and respond to any privacy complaint or inquiry; (c) to use personal information solely for the purposes of providing its services under or ancillary to this Guarantee and not to use it for any other purpose except with the consent

	 	(b)	 except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Security Trustee upon its request for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Security Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Guarantee (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except

jurisdiction. Any amount due under this Section and unpaid within 30 days after demand for such payment by the Security Trustee, shall bear interest at the then current rate of interest charged by the Security Trustee to its corporate
customers. This Section 5.15 shall survive the removal or termination of the Security Trustee and the termination of this Guarantee.

present at such meeting. 
 Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of Holders duly held in accordance with
this Section shall be binding on all the Holders, whether or not present or represented at the meeting.

proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as its shall deem appropriate. Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Senior
Preferred Shares shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.4 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.4. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies may
be presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 1.4 or other proof. 

  

	 	(b)	 The Corporation shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a chairman and secretary of the meeting, unless
the meeting shall have been called by the Guarantor or by Holders as provided in Section 11.2(b), in which case the Guarantor or the Holders calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a chairman and secretary. A

	 	(c)	 Any meeting of Holders duly called pursuant to Section 11.2 at which a quorum is present may be
adjourned from time to time by Persons entitled to vote representing a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of all of the then outstanding Senior Preferred Shares represented and voted at the meeting; and the meeting may be held as so
adjourned without further notice. 

  
 -38- 

	11.6	 Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings 

The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders shall be by written ballot(s) on which shall be subscribed
the signatures of the Holders or of their representatives by proxy and the number of outstanding Senior Preferred Shares held or represented by them. The chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at
the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record, at least in duplicate, of the proceedings of each meeting
of Holders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the
facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 11.2 and, if applicable, Section 11.4. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the chairman and
secretary of the meeting and one such copy shall be delivered to each of the Guarantor, the Corporation and the Security Trustee to be preserved by the Security Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any
record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated. 
  

	11.7	 Serial Approvals and Meetings 

 

	 	(a)	 If any business to be transacted at a meeting of Holders especially affects the rights of the Holders of one
or more Series in a manner or to an extent substantially differing from that in or to which it affects the rights of the Holders of any other Series (as to which an Opinion of Counsel will be binding on all Holders and the Security Trustee for all
purposes hereof) then: 

  

	 	(i)	 reference to such fact, indicating each Series so especially affected, will be made in the notice of such
meeting and the meeting will be and is herein called a “serial meeting”; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 the Holders of a Series so especially affected will not be bound by any action taken at a serial meeting
unless in addition to compliance with the other provisions of this Article 11 at such meeting: 

  

	 	(A)	 there are present in person or by proxy, holders of at least 25% of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
outstanding Senior Preferred Shares of such Series; and 

  

	 	(B)	 the resolution is passed by votes of more than 50% of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Senior
Preferred Shares of such Series present in person or by proxy then outstanding; provided, however, that a resolution to approve (i) a reduction of the percentage of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of such Series required for any supplemental
indenture hereto, any waiver of compliance with this Guarantee or any default hereunder in respect of such Series and its consequence provided for in this Guarantee, 

  
 -39- 

	 	 
or to reduce the requirements of Section 11.4 for quorum or voting with respect to such Series and the Guarantee; or (ii) to modify any of the provisions of this Section 11.7 with
respect to such Series, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Guarantee cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holders of such Series, requires the approval of Holders of 662⁄3% of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of such Series that are present in person or by proxy. 

 

	 	(b)	 If in the Opinion of Counsel any business to be transacted at any meeting of Holders does not affect the
rights of the Holders of one or more Series, the provisions of Section 8.2 and this Article 11 will apply with respect to such business as if the Senior Preferred Shares of such Series were not outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice
will be given to the Holders of such Series of such meeting together with notice that such business does not affect the rights of such Holders.

      Company’s wire instructions.

     

    2.          Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to the Investor as of the Closing that:

     

    (a)          Due Incorporation, Qualification, etc. The Company (i) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware; (ii) has the power and authority
      to own, lease and operate its properties and carry on its business as now conducted; and (iii) is duly qualified, licensed to do business and in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the failure to be so qualified or
      licensed would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

     

    (b)          Authority. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Note to be executed by the Company and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby
      (i) are within the power of the Company and (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary actions on the part of the Company.

     

    

    
      
        

    

    
    (c)          Enforceability. This Agreement and the Note have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and each constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the
      Company in accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.

     

    (d)          Non-Contravention. The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the Note and the performance and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i)
      violate the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (as amended, the “Charter Documents”) or any material judgment, order, writ, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company; (ii) violate any provision of, or result
      in the breach or the acceleration of, or entitle any other person to accelerate (whether after the giving of notice or lapse of time or both), any material mortgage, indenture, agreement, instrument or contract to which the Company is a party or by
      which it is bound; or (iii) except for the security interest in Company assets provided in the Note, result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any property, asset or revenue of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment,
      forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations, or any of its assets or properties.

     

    (e)          Approvals. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any governmental authority or other person (including, without limitation, the shareholders of
      any person) is required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Note by the Company and the performance and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, other than such as have been obtained and
      remain in full force and effect and other than such qualifications or filings under applicable securities laws as may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     

    (f)          No Violation or Default. The Company is not in violation of or in default with respect to (i) its Charter Documents or any material judgment, order, writ, decree, statute, rule or regulation
      applicable to the Company; or (ii) any material mortgage, indenture, agreement, instrument or contract to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

     

    (g)          Litigation. No actions (including, without limitation, derivative actions), suits, proceedings or investigations are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened in writing against the
      Company at law or in equity in any court or before any other governmental authority that (i) would be reasonably expected to (alone or in the aggregate) result in a material liability or (ii) seeks to enjoin, either directly or indirectly, the
      execution, delivery or performance by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby.

     

    (h)          Title. The Company owns and has good and marketable title in fee simple absolute to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of its real properties and good title to its other assets and properties. 
      Such assets and properties are subject to no lien other than (i) liens for current taxes not yet due and payable; (ii) liens imposed by law and incurred in the ordinary course of business for obligations not past due; (iii) liens in respect of
      pledges or deposits under workers’ compensation laws or similar legislation; (iv) liens, encumbrances and defects in title which do not in any case materially detract from the value of the property subject thereto or have a material adverse effect on

      trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, information, processes and other intellectual property rights necessary for its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, the lack of which could reasonably be expected to have a
      material adverse effect on the Company.

     

    (j)          Accuracy of Information Furnished. No representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement, as qualified by the disclosure schedule, if any, and no certificate furnished or to be
      furnished to the Investor at the Closing contains any untrue statement of a material fact or, to the Company’s knowledge, omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of
      the circumstances under which they were made.

     

    (k)          Priority.  Following the execution and delivery of the Note, the Note will be senior in priority to all other indebtedness of the Company other than the Company’s existing indebtedness to North Mill

    (i)          The Investor has been advised that the Note and the underlying securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws and, therefore, cannot be resold unless they are

    (ii)         The Investor is aware that, the Company is under no obligation to effect any such registration with respect to the Note or the underlying securities or to file for or comply with any exemption from

      present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.

     

    

    
      3

      
        

    

    (iv)        The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such investment, is able to incur a complete loss of such
      investment without impairing the Investor’s financial condition and is able to bear the economic risk of such investment for an indefinite period of time.

     

    (v)         The Investor is an accredited investor as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and shall submit to the Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably
      requested by the Company.

     

    (vi)        The residency of the Investor (or, in the case of a partnership or corporation, such entity’s principal place of business) is correctly set forth on the Investor’s signature page hereto.

      performance by the Company under the Note, the Company hereby grants, assigns, transfers, pledges, and sets over to the Investor a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in and lien on all of Company’s right, title, estate, claim and
      interest in and to any and all of the Company’s tangible and intangible assets owned now or acquired later by the Company of any nature whatsoever, including without limitation all proprietary assets of the Company, and including any proceeds of any
      of the foregoing (collectively “Collateral”). The Security Interest is a second priority security interest, senior to all other indebtedness of the Company other than with respect to the Company’s existing indebtedness to North Mill Capital
      LLC the priority of which is established pursuant to, among other things, an Intercreditor and Debt Subordination Agreement between the Investor and North Mill Capital LLC dated of even date herewith.

     

    (b)          Filings.  The Company hereby authorizes the Investor to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto and to take any other action it deems
      reasonable to assure itself of the security interest granted hereunder.

     

    (c)          Further Assurances.  The Company agrees that at any time and from time to time, at its expense, the Company will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents (including, without
      limitation, financing statements and continuation statements), and take all further action that the Investor may request, in order to perfect and protect the security interests granted or purported to be granted hereby and to enable the Investor to
      exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.

     

    7.          Additional Covenants.  Without the prior written approval from Investor (e-mail shall suffice), the Company shall not take any of the following actions:

     

    (a)          amendment of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation adverse to the legitimate interest of Investor;

      or other items in the ordinary course of business);

     

    (d)          declare or pay any dividends or make any distributions on any of the Company’s securities (other than dividends to accomplish a stock split);

    (f)          approve, consummate or enter into an agreement to consummate any Extraordinary Event that does not expressly provide for and result in payment of the Note immediately upon consummation of such Extraordinary
      Event, where “Extraordinary Event” means a change of control of the Company or any Company subsidiary, including (i) a merger of the Company or any Company subsidiary with or into another entity in which the equity holders of the Company do
      not own more than 50% of the voting power of the resulting entity, (ii) the sale of more than 50% of the Company’s equity or the equity in any Company subsidiary in one or more transactions, or (iii) the sale of substantially all of the assets of the
      Company or any Company subsidiary;

      subsidiary;

     

    (h)          voluntary dissolution or cessation of operations of the Company or any Company subsidiary that does not result in payment of the Note prior to or immediately upon such dissolution or cessation of operations; or

    (g)          The Company or any Company subsidiary shall be or become insolvent, or admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or the Company or
      any Company subsidiary shall apply for or consent to the appointment of any receiver, trustee, or similar officer for it or for all or any substantial part of its property; or such receiver, trustee or similar officer shall be appointed without the
      application or consent of the Company or any Company subsidiary, as the case may be; or the Company or any Company subsidiary shall institute (by petition, application, answer, consent or otherwise) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
      arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation or similar proceeding relating to the Company or any Company subsidiary under the laws of any jurisdiction; or any such proceeding shall be instituted (by petition, application or otherwise)
      against the Company or any Company subsidiary; or any judgment, writ, warrant of attachment or execution or similar process shall be issued or levied against a substantial part of the property of the Company or any Company subsidiary; or a petition

    (h)          Holder (who is also referred to as “Employee” in this Section 8(h)) is terminated from employment with the Company by the Company for any or no reason, with or without cause, or Employee terminates
      Employee’s employment with the Company for Good Reason, where “Good Reason” means (i) the failure of the Company to pay or cause to be paid or provided to Employee any compensation or benefits as and when due pursuant to the employment terms
      between Employee and the Company, including such terms as are currently in effect as demonstrated by prior dealing between the parties, (ii) any material diminution in Employee’s position, status, title, authority or responsibilities from those

      officer of the Company of materially less status, title or authority than currently in practice, (v) the Company’s assignment of duties to Employee which are, in the aggregate, materially inconsistent with Employee’s current position, title and job
      description provided, that the events described in sub-clauses (i) through (v) of this paragraph shall constitute Good Reason only if the Company fails to cure the occurrence of such event within ten (10)
      days after receipt from Employee of written notice of the event that constitutes Good Reason; or

     

    

    
      7

      
        

    

    (i)          The Company or any Company subsidiary shall (i) liquidate, wind up or dissolve (or suffer any liquidation, wind-up or dissolution), (ii) suspend its operations other than in the ordinary course of business;
      or

     

    (j)          The Company or any Company subsidiary shall take any action to authorize any of the actions or events set forth above in this Section 8.

     

    9.           Holder Rights upon Default.  If a default occurs under this Agreement or the Note, the Total Outstanding Debt on the Note will thereupon be immediately due and payable, all without presentation,
      demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Company.  Upon any default of the Company hereunder, the Holder will have full recourse against any tangible or intangible assets of the Company and may pursue any legal or
      equitable remedies that they may have available to them and of a secured party under the UCC.  The Holder’s remedies include, but are not limited to, the right to (a) peaceably by its own means or with judicial assistance enter the Company’s premises
      and take possession of the Collateral without prior notice to the Company or the opportunity for a hearing, (b) dispose of the Collateral on or outside of the Company’s premises, or any part thereof (at the sole discretion of the Holder), at any
      public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, (c) transfer to or register the Collateral in its own name or the name of its nominee, and (d) require the Company to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Holder at
      a place designated by the Holder. The Holder shall have a full right of offset for any amounts due upon such a default against any amounts payable by the Holder to the Company.

     

    (a)          Default Interest and Penalties.  Upon a default, interest shall accrue from the date thereof, until cured at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, compounded monthly, or, if lower, the highest
      rate allowable pursuant to applicable usury or other laws.  If such default is a payment default, in addition to the foregoing, Company shall pay to the Holder(s) a penalty equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of the payment shortfall giving rise
      to such payment default, which shall be immediately due and payable.

     

    (b)          Costs.  Holder shall be entitled to recover, and Company shall pay to Holder on demand, the reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable fees, costs, expenses and
      disbursements of attorneys, whether incurred in connection with negotiation or enforcement, or at trial, appellate level, in an arbitration or judicial reference proceeding, in bankruptcy, including, without limitation, an adversary proceeding,
      contested matter, or motion, or otherwise) incurred by Holder in connection with any of (a) retaking the Collateral, holding the Collateral, preparing for disposition of the Collateral, processing the Collateral, and disposing of the Collateral, (b)
      the collection and enforcement of the Loan, and the exercise or enforcement of any of the other rights and remedies of Holder described in this Agreement or the Note, and (c) any default.

     

    10.         Miscellaneous.

     

    (a)          Waivers and Amendments. Any provision of this Agreement and the Note may be amended, waived or modified only upon the written consent of the Company and Investor.

     

    (b)          Governing Law. This Agreement and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without
      regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of California or of any other state.

    (c)          Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

     

    (d)          Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Section 7(f) below, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Investor shall be binding upon and benefit the
      successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.

     

    (e)          Replacement of the Note.  Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note and (a) in the case of
      loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company; or (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender thereof, the Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Note executed in the same manner as
      the Note being replaced, in the same principal amount as the unpaid principal amount of such Note and dated the date to which interest shall have been paid on such Note or, if no interest shall have yet been so paid, dated the date of such Note.

     

    (f)          Assignment. The rights, interests or obligations hereunder or under any Note may not be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by the Company without the prior written
      consent of the Investor.

     

    (g)          Expenses.  The Company shall, immediately upon request by Investor, reimburse Investor for Investor’s reasonable legal fees in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the
      Note and the transactions contemplated hereby, not to exceed $5,000 (excluding any origination fees).  Investor may elect, in Investor’s sole discretion to withhold such fees as an offset from the Purchase Price.

     

    (h)          Delays or Omissions.  No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to a party, upon any breach or default of any party hereto under this Agreement of the Note, shall impair any
      such right, power or remedy of such party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default or any subsequent breach or default under this Agreement or the Note.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character
      related to this Agreement or the Note, on the part of either party, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.  All remedies, either under this Agreement and the Note, or by law or otherwise
      afforded to either party shall be cumulative and not alternative.

     

    (i)          Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Note, constitutes and contains the entire agreement among the Company and Investor and supersede any and all prior agreements, negotiations,
      correspondence, understandings and communications among the parties, whether written or oral, respecting the subject matter hereof.

      party’s address set forth on the signature page hereto, or at such other address as a party shall have delivered by the receiving party to the other party in writing.  All such notices and communications will be deemed effectively given the earlier

      recognized standing or (v) four days after being deposited in the U.S. mail, first class with postage prepaid.
