U.S. Escrow Agent, as applicable, against unpaid invoices and shall be payable on
demand.

	 	(b)	 	The Company hereby indemnifies and saves harmless the Subscription Receipt
Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees and
agents from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, claims, actions or
demands whatsoever which may be brought against the Subscription Receipt Agent or the
U.S. Escrow Agent or which it may suffer or incur as a result or arising out of the
performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, save only in the event
of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Subscription Receipt Agent
or the U.S. Escrow Agent, as applicable. It is understood and agreed that this
indemnification shall survive the termination or the discharge of this Agreement or the

If the Company shall fail to perform any of its covenants contained in this Agreement, the
Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent, as applicable, may notify the Receiptholders
and the Agents of such failure on the part of the Company or may itself perform any of the said
covenants capable of being performed by it but only in their respective capacities; however, there
shall be no obligation to perform said covenants or to notify the Receiptholders of such
performance. All sums expended or advanced by the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow
Agent in so doing shall be repayable as provided in Section 4.3. No such performance, expenditure
or advance by the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent shall relieve the Company of
any default hereunder or of its continuing obligations under the covenants contained herein.

thereof periodically upon written request.

-21-

 

	 	(b)	 	The U.S. Escrow Agent shall maintain accurate books, records and accounts of

The Company shall file all such documents, notices and certificates and take such steps and do such
things as may be necessary under Applicable Securities Laws to permit the issuance of the
Underlying Common Shares in the circumstances contemplated by Section 3.3 such that (a) such
issuance will comply with the prospectus and registration requirements (or exemptions therefrom) of
Applicable Securities Laws in each of the provinces of Canada and the United States, and each
applicable state thereof, and (b) the first trade in the Underlying Common Shares, when and if
issued, (other than from the holdings of a Person who, alone or in combination with others, holds
sufficient Common Shares to materially affect control of the Company) will not be subject to, or
will be exempt from, the prospectus requirements of Applicable Securities Laws in each of the
provinces of Canada (subject to a hold period under Applicable Securities Laws of four months plus
one day following the date of issue of the Subscription Receipts) and the Underlying Common Shares
may not be offered or sold in the absence of an applicable exemption under the U.S. Securities Act
or as set forth in Section 2.14 until (other than by a Person who is an “affiliate” of the Company
as defined in Rule 144(a)(1) under the U.S. Securities Act) one year after the Company has filed
“Form 10 information” (as defined in Rule 144(i)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act) with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) namely, November 10, 2011, unless the offer and sale
of the Underlying Common Shares by the holder thereof has been registered with the SEC on a
registration statement that is effective at the time of such offer and sale.

	4.7	 	Payments by the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent

In the event that any funds to be disbursed by the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow
Agent in accordance herewith have been received by such agent in the form of an uncertified cheque
or cheques, the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall be
entitled to delay the time for disbursement of such funds hereunder until such uncertified cheque
or cheques have cleared in the ordinary course the financial institution upon which the same are
drawn. Each of the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent will disburse monies
according to this Agreement only to the extent that monies have been deposited with it.

ARTICLE 5

ADJUSTMENTS

	5.1	 	Definitions

In this Article 5, references to any “record date” refer to the particular time on such relevant
date stipulated for such event and otherwise refer to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on such date.

	5.2	 	Adjustment

The rights attaching to the Subscription Receipts are subject to adjustment from time to time in
the events and in the manner provided as follows:

	 	(a)	 	If, at any time after the issuance of the Subscription Receipts and before the
Acquisition Closing Time, the Company:

	 	(i)	 	subdivides its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number
of Common Shares, or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	consolidates its outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number
of Common Shares,

	 	 	 	(any of such events in paragraphs (i) and (ii) being a “Common Share
Reorganization”), then the number of Underlying Common Shares with respect to each
Subscription Receipt will be adjusted as of the record date at which the holders of
Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Common Share Reorganization by
multiplying the number of Underlying Common Shares obtainable immediately prior to
such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the number of Common
Shares outstanding on the record date after giving effect to such Common Share
Reorganization and the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares
outstanding on the record date before giving effect to such Common Share
Reorganization.
	 
	 	(b)	 	If, at any time after the issuance of the Subscription Receipts and before the
Acquisition Closing Time, there is a reclassification of Common Shares at any time
outstanding or a change of the Common Shares into other securities or property (other
than a Common Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or
acquisition of the Company with or into any corporation or other entity (other than a
consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or Acquisition that does not result in any
reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into
other securities or property), or a transfer of the undertakings or assets of the
Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another entity, or a record
date for any of the foregoing events occurs, (any of such events being a “Capital
Reorganization”), any holder entitled to acquire Underlying Common Shares after the
record date or effective date of such Capital Reorganization will be entitled to
receive, and shall accept in lieu of the number of Underlying Common
Shares to which such holder was theretofore entitled, the aggregate number of 

-23-

 

	 	 	 	other
securities or other property which such holder would have been entitled to receive
as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date of such Capital
Reorganization, the holder had been the registered holder of the number of
Underlying Common Shares to which such holder was then entitled with respect to the
Subscription Receipts subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions
the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those contained in Section 5.2, provided
however, that no such Capital Reorganization will be carried into effect unless all
necessary steps have been taken to so entitle the holders. If determined appropriate
by the Company, acting reasonably, appropriate adjustments will be made as a result
of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in
this Article 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders to
the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 5 will thereafter
correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may be reasonable in relation to any
other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any
Subscription Receipt. Any such adjustments will be made by and set forth in terms
and conditions supplemental to this agreement approved by the Company, acting
reasonably and absent manifest error, and will for all purposes be conclusively
deemed to be the appropriate adjustment.
	 	(c)	 	If at any time after the issuance of the Subscription Receipts and prior to the
Acquisition Closing Time, the Company issues or distributes to the holders of all or
substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares, cash or securities of the Company,
including rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares or property or assets, including
evidences of indebtedness, other than as a result of a Common Share Reorganization or a
Capital Reorganization, or a record date for any of the foregoing events occurs, the
holders will be entitled to receive, and will receive, in addition to the number of
Underlying Common Shares to which such holder was theretofore entitled, the kind and
amount of Common Shares, cash or other securities or property or assets which result
from such issue or distribution as if, on the record date at which holders of Common
Shares are determined for the purpose of such distribution, such holder had been the
registered holder of the number of Underlying Common Shares to which the holder was
theretofore entitled. Any such transfer will be subject to approval of the TSX and
NASDAQ, if required.
	 
	 	(d)	 	The adjustments provided for in this Section 5.2 are cumulative and shall apply
to successive subdivisions, consolidations, changes, distributions, issues or other
events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section 5.2.
	 
	 	(e)	 	In case the Company, after the date hereof, shall take any action affecting the
Common Shares, other than the actions described in this Section 5.2, which, in the
reasonable opinion of the directors of the Company, would materially affect the rights
of the Receiptholders and/or the rights attaching to the Subscription Receipts, then
the number of Underlying Common Shares which are to be
received pursuant to the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted in such manner, if

-24-

 

	 	 	 	any, and at such time as the directors of the Company may reasonably determine to be
equitable to the Receiptholders in such circumstances.

	5.3	 	Determination by the Company’s Auditors

In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided for in this Article
5, including the failure to adjust, such question shall be conclusively determined by the Company’s
auditors or if they are unwilling or unable to act, by such other firm of accredited independent
accountants as may be selected by the directors of the Company, and they shall have access to all
necessary records of the Company, and such determination shall be binding upon the Company, the
Subscription Receipt Agent, the Receiptholders and all other persons interested therein.

	5.4	 	Certificate of Adjustment

The Company shall from time to time immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an
adjustment or readjustment as provided in this Article 5, deliver a certificate of the Company to
the Subscription Receipt Agent specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount
of the adjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of
calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.

	5.5	 	Notice of Special Matters

The Company covenants with the Subscription Receipt Agent that, so long as any Subscription Receipt
Certificates remain outstanding, it shall send notice to the Subscription Receipt Agent and to the
Receiptholders in accordance with this Article 5 of any intention to fix a record date that is
prior to the Termination Time for the issuance of rights, options or warrants (other than the
Subscription Receipts) to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares.
Such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date for such event,
provided that the Company shall only be required to specify in the notice such particulars of the
event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which the notice is given. The notice
shall be sent in each case not less than 14 days prior to such applicable record date.

	5.6	 	No Action after Notice

The Company covenants with the Subscription Receipt Agent that it will not close its transfer books
or take any other corporate action which might deprive the Receiptholder of the opportunity to
exercise its right of acquisition pursuant thereto during the period of 14 days after the giving of
the notices set forth in Section 5.5.

	5.7	 	Proceedings Prior to any Action Requiring Adjustment

As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment of the
number of Underlying Common Shares to be issued hereunder, the Company shall take any corporate
action which may, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, be necessary to ensure that the Company
has sufficient authorized capital and that the Company may validly and legally issue, as fully paid
and non-assessable Common Shares, all of the Common Shares which the
holders of such Subscription Receipts are entitled to receive on the full exercise thereof in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

-25-

 

	5.8	 	Protection of Subscription Receipt Agent

The Subscription Receipt Agent:

	 	(a)	 	shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Receiptholder
to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment contemplated by
this Article 5, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when
made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same;
	 
	 	(b)	 	shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or
amount) of any Common Shares or any shares or other securities or property which may at
any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of the rights attaching to any
Subscription Receipt;
	 
	 	(c)	 	shall not be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or
deliver Common Shares or certificates for the same upon the surrender of any
Subscription Receipt Certificates for the purpose of the exercise of such rights or to
comply with any of the covenants contained in this Article 5;
	 
	 	(d)	 	shall not incur any liability or responsibility whatsoever or be in any way
responsible for the consequences of any breach on the part of the Company of any of the
representations, warranties or covenants herein contained or of any acts of the
directors, officers, employees, agents or servants of the Company; and
	 
	 	(e)	 	shall be entitled to act and rely upon the certificates or adjustment
calculations of the Company and the auditor of the Company and any other documents
filed by the Company pursuant to Section 5.4, without verification or liability.

ARTICLE 6

INVESTMENT OF ESCROWED FUNDS

	6.1	 	Investment of Escrowed Funds

	 	(a)	 	Until released in accordance with this Agreement, the Subscription Receipt
Agent shall hold, invest and reinvest the Canadian Escrowed Funds on behalf of the
Receiptholders and the Company in short-term interest bearing or discount debt
obligations issued or guaranteed by the Government of Canada, as directed in writing by
the Company. Such direction to the Subscription Receipt Agent shall be provided by the
Company no later than 9:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the day on which the investment is to

a.m. on the next Business Day. If, at any time, the Canadian Escrowed Funds include
cash that is not invested and the Company has not provided directions to the
Subscription Receipt Agent to invest such cash, the Subscription Receipt Agent shall
deposit all such uninvested cash
in an account, a term deposit or guaranteed investment certificates of the
Subscription Receipt Agent or a Canadian chartered bank, having either no fixed term
or no irrevocable term and which pays interest on the daily balance. The

-26-

 

	 	 	 	Subscription Receipt Agent shall have no liability with respect to any loss in value
of investments as permitted to be made hereunder. In making any payment, the
Subscription Receipt Agent shall not be liable for any loss sustained from early
termination of an investment if such termination is required to make a payment
hereunder.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Until released in accordance with this Agreement, the U.S. Escrow Agent shall
hold the U.S. Escrowed Funds on behalf of the Receiptholders and the Company in an
interest bearing checking account established at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank N.A., Toronto
Branch. The U.S. Escrow Agent shall have no liability with respect to any loss in value
of investments as permitted to be made hereunder. In making any payment, the U.S.
Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any loss sustained from early termination of an
investment if such termination is required to make a payment hereunder.

	6.2	 	Segregation of Proceeds

	 	(a)	 	The Canadian Escrowed Funds received by the Subscription Receipt Agent and any
securities or other instruments received by the Subscription Receipt Agent upon the
investment or reinvestment of such Canadian Escrowed Funds, shall be received as agent
for, and shall be segregated and kept apart by the Subscription Receipt Agent as agent
for, the Canadian and non-U.S. Receiptholders and the Company.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The U.S. Escrowed Funds received by the U.S. Escrow Agent shall be received as

U.S. Escrow Agent’s only responsibility under this Section 6.2(b) is to maintain the
U.S. Escrowed Funds in an interest bearing checking account established at J.P. Morgan
Chase Bank, N.A., Toronto Branch.

	6.3	 	Third Party Interest

The Company hereby represents to the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent that any
account to be opened, or interest to be held, by the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow

Company, is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party.

ARTICLE 7

	7.1	 	Suits by Receiptholders

Subject to the powers of Receiptholders exercisable by special resolution, all or any of the rights
conferred upon any Receiptholder by any of the terms of the Subscription Receipt Certificates or

-27-

 

to
proceed in its own name to enforce each and all of the provisions contained herein for the benefit
of the Receiptholders.

	7.2	 	Immunity of Shareholders, etc.

The Subscription Receipt Agent and, by the acceptance of the Subscription Receipts and as part of
the consideration for the issue of the Subscription Receipts, the Receiptholders hereby waive and
release any right, cause of action or remedy now or hereafter existing in any jurisdiction against
any settlor or any past, present or future Shareholder, officer, employee or agent of the Company
or any successor entity for the issue of Common Shares pursuant to any Subscription Receipt or on
any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty by the Company contained herein or in the

the private property of any of the past, present or future officer, director, employee or agent or
Shareholder of the Company or any successor entity or any past, present or future officer,
director, employee or agent of the Company or of any successor entity, but only the property of the
Company or any successor entity shall be bound in respect hereof.

ARTICLE 8

MEETINGS OF RECEIPTHOLDERS

	8.1	 	Right to Convene Meetings

The Subscription Receipt Agent may at any time and from time to time, and shall on receipt of a
written request of the Company or of a Receiptholders’ Request and upon being funded and
indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Company or by the Receiptholders signing such
Receiptholders’ Request against the cost which may be incurred in connection with the calling and
holding of such meeting, convene a meeting of the Receiptholders. In the event of the Subscription
Receipt Agent failing to so convene a meeting within 15 days after receipt of such written request
of the Company or such Receiptholders’ Request and funding and indemnity given as aforesaid, the
Company or such Receiptholders, as the case may be, may convene such meeting. Every such meeting
shall be held in the City of Toronto or at such other place as may be determined by the
Subscription Receipt Agent and approved by the Company.

	8.2	 	Notice

At least 10 days prior notice of any meeting of Receiptholders shall be given to the Receiptholders
in the manner provided for in Section 11.2 and a copy of such notice shall be sent by mail to the
Subscription Receipt Agent (unless the meeting has been called by the Subscription Receipt Agent)
and to the Company (unless the meeting has been called by the Company). Such notice shall state the
date (which shall be a Business Day) and time when, and the place in the City of Toronto where, the
meeting is to be held, shall state briefly the general nature of the business to be transacted
thereat and shall contain such information as is reasonably
necessary to enable the Receiptholders to make a reasoned decision on the matter, but it shall not

-28-

 

be necessary for any such notice to set out the terms of any resolution to be proposed or any of
the provisions of this Article 8.

	8.3	 	Chairperson

An individual (who need not be a Receiptholder) designated in writing by the Subscription Receipt
Agent shall be chairperson of the meeting and, if no individual is so designated, or if the
individual so designated is not present within 15 minutes from the time fixed for the holding of
the meeting, the Receiptholders present in person or by proxy shall choose some individual present
to be chairperson.

	8.4	 	Quorum

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.11, at any meeting of the Receiptholders a quorum shall
consist of not less than two Receiptholders present in person or by proxy and holding 10% of the
then-outstanding Subscription Receipts. If a quorum of the Receiptholders shall not be present
within 30 minutes from the time fixed for holding any meeting, the meeting, if summoned by the
Receiptholders or on a Receiptholders’ Request, shall be dissolved; but in any other case the
meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is not a Business Day,
in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following Business Day) at the same time and place
and no notice of the adjournment need be given. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at
an adjourned meeting which might have been dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with
the notice calling the same. No business shall be transacted at any meeting unless a quorum is
present at the commencement of business. At the adjourned meeting, the Receiptholders present in
person or by proxy shall form a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was
originally convened notwithstanding that they may not hold at least 10% of the then outstanding
Subscription Receipts.

	8.5	 	Power to Adjourn

The chairperson of any meeting at which a quorum of the Receiptholders is present may, with the
consent of the meeting, adjourn any such meeting and no notice of such adjournment need be given
except such notice, if any, as the meeting may prescribe.

	8.6	 	Show of Hands

Every question submitted to a meeting shall, subject to 8.7, be decided in the first place by a
majority of the votes given on a show of hands except that votes on a special resolution shall be
given in the manner hereinafter provided. At any such meeting, unless a poll is duly demanded as
herein provided, a declaration by the chairperson that a resolution has been carried or carried
unanimously or by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be
conclusive evidence of the fact.

	8.7	 	Poll and Voting

On every special resolution, and on any other question submitted to a meeting and after a vote by
show of hands when demanded by the chairperson or by one or more of the Receiptholders
acting in person or by proxy and holding at least 5% of the Subscription Receipts then

-29-

 

outstanding,
a poll shall be taken in such manner as the chairperson shall direct. Questions other than those
required to be determined by special resolution shall be decided by a majority of the votes cast on
the poll.

On a show of hands, every person who is present and entitled to vote, whether as a Receiptholder or
as proxy for one or more absent Receiptholders, or both, shall have one vote. On a poll, each
Receiptholder present in person or represented by a proxy duly appointed by instrument in writing
shall be entitled to one vote in respect of each Subscription Receipt(s) then held or represented
by such person. A proxy need not be a Receiptholder. In the case of joint holders, any one of them
present in person or by proxy at the meeting may vote in the absence of the other or others; but in
case more than one of them shall be present in person or by proxy, they shall vote together in
respect of Subscription Receipts of which they are joint registered holders. The chairperson of any
meeting shall be entitled, both on a show of hands and on a poll, to vote in respect of the
Subscription Receipts, if any, that are held or represented by the chairperson.

	8.8	 	Regulations

The Subscription Receipt Agent, or the Company with the approval of the Subscription Receipt Agent,
may from time to time make and from time to time vary such regulations as it shall consider
necessary for:

	 	(a)	 	the setting of the record date for a meeting of holders of Subscription
Receipts for the purpose of determining Receiptholders entitled to receive notice of
and vote at such meeting;
	 
	 	(b)	 	the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at such place and time as the
Subscription Receipt Agent, the Company or the Receiptholders, convening the meeting,
as the case may be, may in the notice convening the meeting direct;
	 
	 	(c)	 	the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at some approved place or places
other than the place at which the meeting is to be held and enabling particulars of
such instruments appointing proxies to be mailed or telecopied before the meeting to
the Company or to the Subscription Receipt Agent at the place where the same is to be
held and for the voting of proxies so deposited as though the instruments themselves
were produced at the meeting;
	 
	 	(d)	 	the form of the instrument of proxy and the manner in which the instrument of
proxy must be executed; and
	 
	 	(e)	 	generally for the calling of meetings of Receiptholders and the conduct of
business thereat.

Any regulations so made shall be binding and effective and the votes given in accordance therewith
shall be valid and shall be counted. Save as such regulations may provide, the only persons who
shall be recognized at any meeting as a Receiptholder, or be entitled to vote or be present at the
meeting in respect thereof (subject to Section 8.9), shall be Receiptholders or their counsel, or
duly appointed proxies of Receiptholders.

-30-

 

	8.9	 	Company, Subscription Receipt Agent and U.S. Escrow Agent may be Represented

The Company, the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent, by their respective
authorized employees and agents, and counsel and for the Subscription Receipt Agent may attend any
meeting of the Receiptholders, but shall have no vote as such unless in their capacity as
Receiptholder or a proxy holder.

	8.10	 	Powers Exercisable by Special Resolution

In addition to all other powers conferred upon them by any other provisions of this Agreement or by
law, the Receiptholders at a meeting shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8.11, have the
power, subject to all applicable regulatory and exchange approvals, exercisable from time to time
by special resolution (and only by special resolution):

	 	(a)	 	to agree to any modification, abrogation, alteration, compromise or arrangement
of the rights of Receiptholders or, subject to the consent of the Subscription Receipt
Agent, the Subscription Receipt Agent, against the Company or against its undertaking,
property and assets or any part thereof whether such rights arise under this Agreement
or the Subscription Receipt Certificates or otherwise;
	 
	 	(b)	 	to amend, alter or repeal any special resolution previously passed or
sanctioned by the Receiptholders;
	 
	 	(c)	 	to direct or to authorize the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow
Agent, as applicable, to enforce any of the covenants on the part of the Company
contained in this Agreement or the Subscription Receipt Certificates or to enforce any
of the rights of the Receiptholders in any manner specified in such special resolution
or to refrain from enforcing any such covenant or right;
	 
	 	(d)	 	to waive, and to direct the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow
Agent, as applicable, to waive, any default on the part of the Company in complying
with any provisions of this Agreement or the Subscription Receipt Certificates either
unconditionally or upon any conditions specified in such special resolution;
	 
	 	(e)	 	to restrain any Receiptholder from taking or instituting any suit, action or
proceeding against the Company for the enforcement of any of the covenants on the part
of the Company in this Agreement or the Subscription Receipt Certificates or to enforce
any of the rights of the Receiptholders;
	 
	 	(f)	 	to direct any Receiptholder who, as such, has brought any suit, action or
proceeding to stay or to discontinue or otherwise to deal with the same upon payment of
the costs, charges and expenses reasonably and properly incurred by such Receiptholder
in connection therewith;
	 
	 	(g)	 	to assent to any modification of, change in or omission from the provisions
contained in the Subscription Receipt Certificates and this Agreement or any ancillary
or supplemental instrument which may be agreed to by the Company,

-31-

 

	 	 	 	and to authorize the Subscription Receipt Agent to concur in and execute any
ancillary or supplemental agreement embodying the change or omission;
	 
	 	(h)	 	with the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld),
to remove the Subscription Receipt Agent or its successor in office and to appoint a
new subscription receipt agent to take the place of the Subscription Receipt Agent so
removed; and
	 
	 	(i)	 	to assent to any compromise or arrangement with any creditor or creditors or
any class or classes of creditors, whether secured or otherwise, and with holders of
any Common Shares or other securities of the Company.

	8.11	 	Meaning of Special Resolution

	 	(a)	 	The expression “special resolution” when used in this Agreement means, subject
as hereinafter provided in this Section 8.11 and in Section 8.14, a resolution proposed
at a meeting of Receiptholders duly convened for that purpose and held in accordance
with the provisions of this Article 8 at which two or more Receiptholders are present
in person either holding personally or representing as proxies not less in aggregate
than 25% of the number of Subscription Receipts then outstanding and passed by the
affirmative votes of Receiptholders holding more than 662/3% of the Subscription Receipts
represented at the meeting and voted on a poll upon such resolution.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Notwithstanding Section 8.11(a), if, at any meeting called for the purpose of
passing a special resolution, at least two Receiptholders holding not less in aggregate
than 25% of the then outstanding Subscription Receipts are not present in person or by
proxy within 30 minutes after the time appointed for the meeting, then the meeting, if
convened by Receiptholders or on a Receiptholders’ Request, shall be dissolved; but in
any other case it shall stand adjourned to such day, being not less than 21 nor more

Receipts held by them, for which Subscription Receipts the Subscription Receipt Agent
shall issue receipts.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Every provision of this Agreement that by its terms relieves each of the
Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent of liability or entitles it to
rely upon any evidence submitted to it is subject to the provisions of this Section
10.1.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Neither the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent shall have any

independent judgment.

any liability whatsoever with respect to the delivery or non-delivery of any
certificates whether delivered by hand, mail or any other means.

responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as Subscription Receipt
Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent hereunder. At the request of the Company or the new
subscription receipt or escrow agent, the retiring Subscription Receipt Agent or U.S.
Escrow Agent shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to the new subscription receipt or
escrow agent all property and money held and all records kept by the retiring
Subscription Receipt Agent or U.S. Escrow Agent hereunder or in connection herewith.

Company shall promptly notify the Receiptholders thereof in the manner provided for in
Article 11 hereof.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Any corporation into or with which the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S.
Escrow Agent may be merged or consolidated or amalgamated, or any corporation resulting
therefrom to which the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent shall be a
party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of the
Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent shall be the successor to the
Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent hereunder without any further act
on its part or any of the parties hereto, provided that such corporation would be
eligible for appointment as a successor subscription receipt or escrow agent under
Section 10.6(a).
	 
	 	(d)	 	Any Subscription Receipt Certificate certified but not delivered by a
predecessor Subscription Receipt Agent may be delivered by the successor subscription

30 days after ascertaining that it has such material conflict of interest, either
eliminate the same or assign its appointment as Subscription Receipt Agent or U.S.
Escrow Agent, as applicable, hereunder to a successor subscription receipt or escrow
agent, as applicable, approved by the Company and meeting the requirements set forth in
Section 10.6(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.7(a), if
any such material conflict of interest exists or hereafter shall exist, the validity
and enforceability of this Agreement and the Subscription Receipts shall not be
affected in any manner whatsoever by reason thereof.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Subject to Section 10.7(a), each of the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S.

assets or undertaking of the Company.

	10.10	 	Anti-Money Laundering and Privacy

Each of the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent 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, such agent, in its sole judgment, acting reasonably, determines that such act
might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist
legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S.
Escrow Agent, in its sole judgment, acting reasonably, determine at any time that its acting under
this Agreement has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money
laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to
resign on 10 days prior written notice sent to all parties provided that (a) the Subscription
Receipt Agent’s or the U.S. Escrow Agent’s written notice shall describe the circumstances of such
non-compliance; and (b) that if such circumstances are rectified to the Subscription Receipt
Agent’s or the U.S. Escrow Agent’s satisfaction, acting reasonably, within such 10 day period, then
such resignation shall not be effective.

The parties acknowledge that each of the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow Agent may,
in the course of providing services hereunder, collect or receive financial and other personal
information about such parties and/or their representatives, as individuals, or about other
individuals related to the subject matter hereof, and may use such information for the following
purposes:

	 	(a)	 	to provide the services required under this Agreement and other services that
may be requested from time to time;
	 
	 	(b)	 	to help such agent manage its servicing relationships with such individuals;

Each party acknowledges and agrees that each of the Subscription Receipt Agent and the U.S. Escrow
Agent may receive, collect, use and disclose personal information provided to it or acquired by it
in the course of this Agreement for the purposes described above and, generally, in the manner and
on the terms described in its privacy code, which such agent shall make available on its website or
upon request, including revisions thereto. Further, each party agrees that it shall not provide or
cause to be provided to the Subscription Receipt Agent or the U.S. Escrow Agent any personal
information relating to an individual who is not a party to this Agreement unless that party has
assured itself that such individual understands and has consented to the aforementioned uses and
disclosures.

The Company and Broadband hereby severally represent and warrant to the U.S. Escrow Agent that
reasonable controls have been established and required due diligence performed to comply with the

-43-

 

	 	 	 	incumbency together with a certified resolution authorizing the person who signed
such instrument to sign such instrument.

Agent of a certificate of the Company stating that all conditions precedent to the satisfaction and

Subject to Section 2.3 of the Agreement, each Subscription Receipt entitles the holder to receive
on the Acquisition Closing Date, in accordance with the terms of, and subject to, the Agreement to
automatically receive, without the payment of any additional consideration, one Common Share for
each Subscription Receipt (subject to adjustments in certain circumstances as herein provided) held
by the Receiptholder. Until such time as the Proceeds have been delivered in accordance with
Section 2.2(a) or (b) of the Agreement, this Subscription Receipt Certificate will be of no force

holder.

The Subscription Receipts represented hereby are issued under and pursuant to the Agreement.

the Agreement and upon compliance with such reasonable requirements as the Subscription Receipt
Agent may prescribe (including compliance with the legends hereon). The transfer register shall be
closed effective as of the Acquisition Closing Time or 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Termination

receive the Proceeds (plus pro rata interest thereon) will be void and of no further value or
effect.

Exhibit 10.63

EXTERRAN HOLDINGS, INC.

AWARD NOTICE

TIME-VESTED STOCK OPTION FOR OFFICERS

Exterran Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted to you (the “Participant”) an Incentive Stock
Option to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company under the Amended and Restated Exterran
Holdings, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “Plan”). All capitalized terms not
explicitly defined in this Award Notice but defined in the Plan shall have the same meaning
ascribed to them in the Plan.

The material terms of your Award are as follows:

     1. Award. You have been granted an Option (the “Award” or “Option”) to purchase shares of
Common Stock of the Company in the number and at the exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) provided
above as the “Grant Price”. To the extent allowable under the law, this Option will be treated as
an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. To the extent any portion of this Option
does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option due to restrictions in the Code, that portion of the
Option will become a Non-Qualified Option.

     2. Qualification as Incentive Stock Option. Neither the Company, its directors, officers,
employees or the Committee, nor any Affiliate which is in existence or hereafter comes into
existence shall be liable to you or any other person or entity if it is determined for any reason
by the Internal Revenue Service or any court having jurisdiction that the Option does not qualify
for tax treatment as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. Please see Section
VII (c) of the Plan for specific limitations on incentive stock options and consult your tax
advisor for advice on your specific tax situation.

     3. Grant Date. The Grant Date of this Award is the “issue date” provided above.

     4. Vesting. Your Award is subject to a vesting schedule. A portion of your Award will
automatically vest and become exercisable on each of the dates indicated in the vesting schedule
above (each a “Vesting Date”). However, except as provided in Sections 6 and 7 below, you must be
employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates at all times from the Grant Date up to and
including the applicable Vesting Date for that portion of the Award to vest.

     5. Term. The Award will continue in effect until the date that is 7 years from the Issue Date
(the “Expiry Date”), subject to earlier termination in accordance with Section 6 of this Award
Notice or the Plan. If not exercised prior to the Expiry Date, the Award will be forfeited.

     6. Termination of Employment. Your Award will either vest or be forfeited upon your
termination, depending on the reason for termination:

     (a) Termination as a Result of Death, Disability or Retirement.

For Incentive Stock Options — Upon a termination of employment as a result of death
or disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), the unvested portion of your
Award will immediately vest in full and become exercisable, and you (or your legal
representative) will be entitled to exercise the Award at any time prior to the Expiry Date
or the expiration of one (1) year after the date of your termination, whichever is the
shorter period. Upon a termination of employment as a result of Retirement, the unvested
portion of your Award will immediately vest in full and become exercisable, and you will be
entitled to exercise the Award at any time prior to the Expiry Date or the expiration of
three (3) months after the date of your termination, whichever is the shorter period.

 

 

For Non-Qualified Stock Options — Upon a termination of employment as a result of
death, Disability or Retirement, the unvested portion of your Award will immediately vest in
full and become exercisable, and you (or your legal representative) will be entitled to
exercise the vested portion of your Award at any time prior to the Expiry Date or the
expiration of two (2) years after the date of your termination, whichever is the shorter
period.

     (b) Termination for Cause. Following a termination of employment for Cause, the outstanding
unexercised portion of your Award (whether vested or unvested) will be automatically forfeited on
the date of your termination.

     (c) All Other Terminations. You will be entitled to exercise the vested portion of your Award
at any time prior to the Expiry Date or the expiration of three (3) months after the date of your
termination, whichever is the shorter period. The unvested portion of your Award will be
automatically forfeited on the date of your termination.

     7. Corporate Change. In the event a Corporate Change occurs, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Award Notice, this section will govern the vesting of your Award on and after the
date the Corporate Change is consummated.

If a Corporate Change is consummated prior to the final Vesting Date of your Award, then:

     (a) the portion of your Award that would have vested on the Vesting Date immediately following
the date the Corporate Change is consummated will automatically vest as of the date the Corporate
Change is consummated; and

     (b) the remaining unvested portion of your Award, if any, will continue to be subject to the
original vesting schedule and Vesting Dates;

provided, however, that if your employment with the Company or an Affiliate is terminated on or
after the date a Corporate Change is consummated (i) by the Company without Cause, (ii) by you for
Good Reason (as defined below) or (iii) as a result of your death or Disability, then the unvested
portion of your Award as of such termination date will automatically vest in full and all
restrictions applicable to your Award will cease as of the date of your termination of employment.
If your employment is terminated by the Company with Cause or by you without Good Reason on or
after the date the Corporate Change is consummated, then the unvested portion of your Award will be
automatically forfeited on the date of your termination.

For purposes of this Award Notice, unless otherwise provided in a written agreement between the
Company and you, “Good Reason” means the occurrence of any of the following without your express
written consent:

     (i) A reduction of 10% or more of your base salary;

     (ii) Your being required to be based at any other office or location of employment more than
50 miles from your primary office or location of employment immediately prior to the Corporate
Change; or

     (iii) The willful failure by the Company to pay you your compensation when due;

provided, however, unless otherwise provided in a written agreement between the Company and you,
that Good Reason does not exist with respect to a matter unless you give the Company a notice of
termination due to such matter within 20 days of the date such matter first exists. If you fail to
give a notice of termination timely, you shall be deemed to have waived all rights you may have
under this Award Notice with respect to such matter. The Company will have 30 days from the date
of your notice of termination to cure the matter. If the Company cures the matter, your notice of
termination shall be

2

 

deemed rescinded. If the Company fails to cure the matter timely, your employment shall be deemed
to have been terminated by the Company for Good Reason at the end of the 30-day cure period.

     8. Exercise of Award. The exercise of your Option must be accompanied by full payment of the
Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock being acquired by: (i) cash, (ii) a check acceptable
to the Company, (iii) the delivery of a number of already-owned shares of Common Stock having a
Fair Market Value equal to such Exercise Price (provided you have owned such shares of Common Stock
for more than six months), (iv) a “cashless broker exercise” of the Option through any procedures
established or approved by the Compensation Committee with respect thereto, or (v) any combination
of the foregoing approved by the Compensation Committee. No shares of Common Stock will be issued
until the Exercise Price has been paid. An Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable only by you
except in the case of your death or Disability, in which event it can be exercised only by your
legal representatives, executors, successors or beneficiaries.

     9. Stockholder Rights. You will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option until you become the holder of record of such
shares of Common Stock.

     10. Non—Transferability. You cannot sell, transfer, pledge, exchange or otherwise dispose of
your Option except in accordance with the Plan.

     11. No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Award Notice guarantees your continued
employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates or interferes in any way with the right of the
Company or its Affiliates to terminate your employment at any time.

     12. Data Privacy. You consent to the collection, use, processing and transfer of your
personal data as described in this paragraph. You understand that the Company and/or its
Affiliates hold certain personal information about you (including your name, address and telephone
number, date of birth, social security number, social insurance number, etc.) for the purpose of
administering the Plan (“Data”). You also understand that the Company and/or its Affiliates will
transfer this Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementing, administering
and managing your participation in the Plan, and that the Company and/or its Affiliates may also
transfer this Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration
and management of the Plan. You authorize them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the
Data, in electronic or other form, for these purposes. You also understand that you may, at any
time, review the Data, require any necessary changes to the Data or withdraw your consent in
writing by contacting the Company. You further understand that withdrawing your consent may affect
your ability to participate in the Plan.

     13. Withholding. Your Award is subject to applicable income, employment and/or social
insurance or social security withholding obligations, and the Company and its Affiliates may, in
their sole discretion, withhold a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock that are otherwise
issuable to you under this Award in order to satisfy any such withholding obligations. If
necessary, the Company also reserves the right to withhold from your regular earnings an amount
sufficient to meet the withholding obligations.

     14. Plan Governs. This Award Notice is subject to the terms of the Plan, a copy of which is
available at no charge through your Solium account or which will be provided to you upon request as
indicated in Section 17. All the terms and conditions of the Plan, as may be amended from time to
time, and any rules, guidelines and procedures which may from time to time be established pursuant
to the Plan, are hereby incorporated into this Award Notice. In the event of a discrepancy between
this Award Notice and the Plan, the Plan shall govern.

     15. Modifications. The Company may make any change to this Award Notice that is not adverse
to your rights under this Award Notice or the Plan.

     16. Non-Solicitation/Confidentiality Agreement. The greatest assets of the Company and its
Affiliates (“Exterran” in this Section 16) are its employees, directors, customers, and
confidential information. In recognition of the increased risk of unfairly losing any of these
assets, Exterran has adopted this Non-Solicitation/Confidentiality Agreement as set forth in this
Section 16, the terms of which you accept and agree to by accepting the Award.

     a. In order to assist you with your employment-related duties, Exterran has provided
and shall continue to provide you with access to confidential and proprietary operational
information and other confidential information which is either information not known by
actual or potential competitors and third parties or is proprietary information of Exterran
(“Confidential Information”). Such Confidential Information shall include, without
limitation, information regarding Exterran’s customers and suppliers, employees, business
operations, product lines, services, pricing and pricing formulae, machines and inventions,
research, knowhow, manufacturing and fabrication techniques, engineering and product design
specifications, financial information, business plans and strategies, information derived
from reports and computer systems, work in progress, marketing and sales programs and
strategies, cost data, methods of doing business, ideas, materials or information prepared
or performed for, by or on behalf of Exterran. You agree, during your employment and at all
times thereafter, not to use, divulge, or furnish or to make accessible to any third party,
company, or other entity or individual, without Exterran’s written consent, any Confidential
Information of Exterran, except as required by your job-related duties to Exterran.

     b. You agree that whenever your employment with Exterran ends for any reason, (i) you
shall return to Exterran all documents containing or referring to Exterran’s Confidential
Information as may be in your possession and/or control, with no request being required; and
(ii) you shall return all Exterran computer and computer-related equipment and software, and
all Exterran property, files, records, documents, drawings, specifications, lists,
equipments and other similar items relating to Exterran’s business coming into your
possession and/or control during your employment, with no request being required.

     c. In connection with your acceptance of the Award under the Plan, and in exchange for
the consideration provided hereunder, and in consideration of Exterran disclosing and
providing access to Confidential Information, you agree that you will not, during your
employment with, or service to Exterran, and for one year thereafter, directly or
indirectly, for any reason, for your own account or on behalf of or together with any other
person, entity or organization (i) call on or otherwise solicit any natural person who is
employed by Exterran in any capacity with the purpose or intent of attracting that person
from the employ of Exterran, or (ii) divert or attempt to divert from Exterran any business
relating to the provision of natural gas compression equipment and related services or oil
and natural gas production and processing equipment and related services without, in either
case, the prior written consent of Exterran.

     d. You agree that (i) the terms of this Section 16 are reasonable and constitute an
otherwise enforceable agreement to which the terms and provisions of this Section 16 are
ancillary or a part of; (ii) the consideration provided by Exterran under this Section 16 is
not illusory; (iii) the restrictions of this Section 16 are necessary and reasonable for the
protection of the legitimate business interests and goodwill of Exterran; and (iv) the
consideration given by Exterran under this Section 16, including without limitation, the
provision by Exterran of Confidential Information to you, gives rise to Exterran’s interests
in the covenants set forth in this Section 16.

     e. You and Exterran agree that it was both parties’ intention to enter into a valid and
enforceable agreement. You agree that if any covenant contained in this Section 16 is found
by a court of competent jurisdiction to contain limitations as to time, geographic area, or
scope of activity that are not reasonable and impose a greater restraint than is necessary
to protect the goodwill or other business interests of Exterran, then the court shall reform
the covenant to the

4

 

extent necessary to cause the limitations contained in the covenant as to time,
geographic area, and scope of activity to be restrained to be reasonable and to impose a
restraint that is not greater than necessary to protect the goodwill and other business
interests of Exterran.

     f. In the event that Exterran determines that you have breached or attempted or
threatened to breach any term of this Section 16, in addition to any other remedies at law
or in equity Exterran may have available to it, it is agreed that Exterran shall be
entitled, upon application to any court of proper jurisdiction, to a temporary restraining
order or preliminary injunction (without necessity of (i) proving irreparable harm, (ii)
establishing that monetary damages are inadequate, or (iii) posting any bond with respect
thereto) against you prohibiting such breach or attempted or threatened breach by proving
only the existence of such breach or attempted or threatened breach. You agree that the
period during which the covenants contained in this Section 16 are in effect shall be
computed by excluding from such computation any time during which you are in violation of
any provision of this Section 16.
