 The Corporation shall at its
expense and in a timely manner contest and defend against any Indemnified Claim (other than an Indemnified Claim brought by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries) and take all such steps as may be necessary or proper therein to prevent the
resolution thereof in a manner adverse to you, including the taking of such appeals as counsel to the Corporation may advise are likely to succeed in the circumstances (which opinion shall be in writing and a copy thereof provided to you). In this
regard, the Corporation will keep you fully informed on a timely basis of all steps and developments relating to the foregoing. The Corporation shall not agree to any settlement on your behalf without your written consent. 
  

	 	(b)	By Officer 

 Notwithstanding Section 4(a)
hereof, you will be entitled to assume carriage of your own defence relating to any Indemnified Claim (and for greater certainty, the full amount of reasonable expense you incur in connection with such defence shall be an Indemnified Amount) if:

  

	 	(i)	the Corporation does not in a timely manner: 

  

	 	(A)	undertake appropriate action; or 

  

	 	(B)	take such legal steps as may be from time to time required to properly defend against any such claim; or 

  

	 	(ii)	in the reasonable opinion of your counsel (which opinion shall be in writing and a copy thereof provided to the Corporation) your interests in respect of the relevant matter
conflict with the interests of the Corporation in respect of such matter or with the interests of any other director or officer of the Corporation in respect of whose defence the Corporation has carriage; 

 provided that: 
  

	 	(i)	you shall not agree to settle any Indemnified Claim without the prior written consent of the Corporation (unless you have a reasonable belief that the Corporation will not satisfy
its obligations to you hereunder if the Indemnified Claim proceeds); and 

  

 - 3 - 

	 	(ii)	if the Indemnified Claim would be covered by insurance maintained by the Corporation, you shall comply with the applicable conditions of such coverage (provided however, that
failure to so comply shall not relieve the Corporation of its obligation to indemnify you hereunder). 

  

	5.	Former Directors and Officers 

 (a) You shall
continue to be entitled to indemnification and advances hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to Indemnified Claims, even though you may no longer be acting in an Indemnified Capacity. 
 (b) You and your advisors shall at all times be entitled to review during regular business hours all documents, records and other information with
respect to the Corporation or any entity in which you acted in an Indemnified Capacity which are under the Corporation’s control and which may be reasonably necessary in order to defend yourself against any Proceeding that relates to, arises
from or is based on your service in an Indemnified Capacity, provided that you shall maintain all such information in strictest confidence except to the extent necessary for your defence. 
  

	6.	No Obligation to Pay Indemnities Prohibited by Law

“CBCA”) or otherwise by law. 
 (b) Without limitation to Section 6(a), you acknowledge that the CBCA prohibits the
Corporation from indemnifying you unless you: 
  

	 	(i)	acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation or, as the case may be, of NNL or any other entity to the extent that you are serving as a
director or officer of that entity at the request of the Corporation; and 

  

	 	(ii)	in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, you had reasonable grounds for believing that your conduct was lawful (each
of (i) and (ii) a “Condition”). 

 (c) If the Corporation pays an Indemnified Amount which it is prohibited
from paying by law (as determined by a court or administrative tribunal of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable), then such amount shall be deemed to have been an advance of Costs by the Corporation to you and
upon written request by the Corporation, you shall repay such amounts to the Corporation. For greater certainty, it is acknowledged that the Corporation shall advance Costs to you or on your behalf in connection with an Indemnified Claim prior to
the resolution of the merits of any action, provided that if a court or administrative tribunal of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable determines that you do not fulfill either of the Conditions, you shall repay
such amounts to the Corporation.

under applicable law to obtain the approval of the court in order to pay any Indemnified Amount, the Corporation shall seek such approval forthwith upon demand by you for indemnification or advance.

receiving a written request from you to do so.

	10.	Previous Indemnities

replaces all prior indemnities entered into between the Corporation and you with respect to the subject matter of this indemnity, provided however, that nothing in this provision shall operate to restrict in any way any indemnity to which you are
