              MERRILL LYNCH CAPITAL CANADA INC., a corporation incorporated

sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each of the parties hereto, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
<PAGE>

                                      -2-

                                   ARTICLE 1
                                 INTERPRETATION

1.1      Defined Terms

         In this Agreement, unless something in the subject matter or the
context is inconsistent therewith, capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the respective meanings attributed to such terms in
Schedule A.

1.2      Headings

         The division of this Agreement into Articles and Sections and the
insertion of headings and a table of contents are for convenience of reference
only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.
The terms "this Agreement", "hereof", "hereunder" and similar expressions refer
to this Agreement and not to any particular Article, Section or other portion
hereof and include any agreement supplemental hereto. Unless something in the
subject matter or context is inconsistent therewith, references herein to
Articles and Sections are to Articles and Sections of this Agreement.

1.3      Number

         Words importing the singular number only shall include the plural and
vice versa, words importing any gender shall include all genders, words
importing persons shall include individuals, partnerships, associations, trusts,
unincorporated organizations and corporations and vice versa, and references to
statutes or to agreements or other contractual instruments shall, unless
otherwise provided, be deemed to include all present or future amendments,
supplements, restatements or replacements thereof.

1.4      Currency

         Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all monetary amounts
in this Agreement are stated in Canadian Dollars. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, wherever this Agreement contemplates or requires the
calculation of the equivalent in Canadian Dollars of an amount expressed in U.S.
Dollars, or vice versa, the calculation shall be made on the basis of the
Exchange Rate at the effective date of the calculation.

1.5      Accounting Principles

         Wherever in this Agreement reference is made to GAAP, such reference
shall be deemed to be to GAAP, applicable (except as otherwise specifically
provided) on a consolidated basis as of the date on which any calculation is
made or required to be made in accordance with GAAP. Where the character or
amount of any asset or liability or item of revenue or expense is required to be
determined, or any consolidation or other accounting computation is required to
be made for the purpose of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, such
determination or calculation shall, to the extent applicable and except as
otherwise specified herein, be made in accordance with GAAP applied on a
consistent basis.

1.6      Per Annum Calculations

         Unless otherwise stated, wherever in this Agreement reference is made
to a rate of interest "per annum" or a similar expression is used, such interest
shall be calculated using the nominal rate method, and not the effective rate
method, of calculation and on the basis of a calendar year of 365 days or 366
days, as the case may be. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall
not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.

1.7      Interest Act (Canada)

         For the purpose of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada),
the yearly rate of interest to which any rate of interest payable under this
Agreement that is calculated on any basis other than a full calendar year is
equivalent may be determined by multiplying such rate by a fraction the
numerator of which is the actual number of days in the calendar year in which
such yearly rate of interest is to be ascertained and the denominator of which
is the number of days comprising such other basis.

1.8      Schedules

                                   ARTICLE 2
                                 CREDIT FACILITY

2.1      Credit Facility

         2.1.1 Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
the Lender agrees to provide a revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility")
for the use of the Borrower in a maximum principal amount equal to the Credit
Facility Limit.

         2.1.2 Prior to the Maturity Date, the principal amount of any Advance
that is repaid may be reborrowed from time to time, subject to the terms of this
Agreement.
<PAGE>

                                      -4-

         2.1.3 The right of the Borrower to obtain any Advance hereunder shall
be automatically terminated on the Maturity Date.

2.2      Use of Proceeds of Advances

         The Borrower shall use the proceeds of all Advances to finance,
purchase or originate Contracts and related Receivables.

2.3      Requests for Advances

         2.3.1 Subject to the prior satisfaction of all conditions precedent
stipulated in this Agreement, the Lender will make the requested amount of an
Advance available to the Borrower on the Drawdown Date to the extent it does not
result in all outstanding Advances on such day exceeding the Credit Facility
Limit on such day by depositing such amount into the Borrower's Account (or as
the Borrower may otherwise direct to the Lender in writing from time to time).
Each Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $2,000,000.

         2.3.2 The Borrower shall give the Lender irrevocable written notice of
any request for an Advance (a "Drawdown Notice"), in the form attached hereto as
Schedule B (or as otherwise agreed to by the Lender in respect of the first
Advance), on or prior to 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on the first Business Day
prior to the Drawdown Date relating to such Advance (but not more than three
Business Days prior to the Drawdown Date).

         2.3.3 Each Drawdown Notice shall be delivered to the Lender in both
written and electronic format and shall include a schedule (a "Schedule of
Contracts"), in the form attached as Appendix A to Schedule B, identifying the
Contracts and the related Receivables which relate to such Advance, which
Schedule of Contracts shall be current as of close of business on the first
Business Day prior to the date of the Drawdown Notice. The Borrower shall ensure
that each Receivable identified on a Schedule of Contracts is an Eligible
Receivable. The Borrower shall not identify any Contract or any Receivable in a
Schedule of Contracts, if immediately prior to the date of the applicable
Drawdown Notice, such Contract or such Receivable already formed part of the
Collateral.

         2.3.4 The indebtedness of the Borrower resulting from Advances made by
the Lender and any interest thereon shall be evidenced by records maintained by
the Lender concerning such Advances. Such records of the Lender shall
constitute, in the absence of manifest miscalculation or error, prima facie
evidence of the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender and all details
relating thereto. The failure of the Lender to correctly record any such amount
or date shall not, however, adversely affect the obligation of the Borrower to
pay amounts due hereunder to the Lender in accordance with this Agreement.

2.4      Mandatory Repayment of Advances

         2.4.1 On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay to the Lender the
aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Advances, together with (i) all
accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such Advances and (ii) all other
Obligations under or in connection with this Agreement.
<PAGE>

                                      -5-

         2.4.2 If, on any Payment Date, the aggregate principal amount of all
Advances outstanding on such date exceeds the Receivables Borrowing Base on such
date, the Borrower shall, on such date:

         (a)  repay to the Lender by depositing to the Lender's Account: (i) an
              amount equal to the difference on such day between (A) the
              aggregate principal amount of all Advances outstanding, and (B)
              the Receivables Borrowing Base (such difference is referred to as
              the "Excess Advances"), together with (ii) all interest accrued
              and unpaid hereunder with respect to any Advance (or the part
              thereof) that is repaid pursuant to this Section 2.4.2(a) to the
              extent that any such amount is not deposited to the Lender's
              Account pursuant to Section 8.2.1(a) or 8.2.1(b), as applicable;
              or

         (b)  provided that no Event of Default or Pending Event of Default has
              occurred and is then continuing, deliver to the Lender, in both
              written and electronic format, a schedule (a "Schedule of
              Additional Contracts"), in the form attached hereto as Schedule C,
              identifying additional Contracts and the related Receivables which
              (i) immediately prior to such date, did not form part of the
              Collateral, (ii) the Borrower wishes to include as part of the
              Collateral, and (iii) have an Aggregate Outstanding Balance on
              such date which, when multiplied by the Advance Rate, equals the
              Excess Advances.

         2.4.3 The Borrower shall ensure that each Receivable identified in a
Schedule of Additional Contracts is an Eligible Receivable.

         2.4.4 The Borrower shall on demand by the Lender indemnify the Lender
for any loss or expense (including breakage costs) which the Lender incurs as a
result of any repayment made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4.2(a).

2.5      Optional Repayment of Advances

         2.5.1 On any Payment Date, the Borrower shall have the right to repay
without penalty all or a portion of any outstanding Advance. The Borrower shall
also have the right to repay all or a portion of any outstanding Advance on any
Business Day which is not a Payment Date; provided that in connection with any
such repayment not effected on a Payment Date, the Borrower shall on demand by
the Lender indemnify the Lender for any loss or expense (including breakage
costs) which the Lender incurs as a result of any such repayment made by the
Borrower.

         2.5.2 The Borrower shall give the Lender not less than two (2) Business
Days' irrevocable prior written notice (a "Repayment Notice"), in the form
attached hereto as Schedule D, in both written and electronic format, of any
repayment to be effected pursuant to this Section 2.5 (but not more than three
Business Days prior to the date of repayment). No such repayment shall be in an
amount which is less than $500,000.

         2.5.3 Provided that, on the date of any Repayment Notice, no Event of
Default or Pending Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing:
<PAGE>

                                      -6-

         (a)  the Borrower may, at its option, include as part of any Repayment
              Notice, a schedule (a "Schedule of Removed Contracts"), in the
              form attached as Appendix A to Schedule D, identifying the
              Contracts and the related Receivables that the Borrower wishes the
              Lender to release from the Security following the date of such
              repayment, which Schedule of Removed Contracts shall be current as
              of the close of business on the first Business Day prior to the
              date of the Repayment Notice; and

         (b)  the Lender shall, promptly upon receipt of the full amount of a
              repayment made by the Borrower contemplated in Section 2.5.4,
              execute and deliver to the Borrower the related Schedule of
              Removed Contracts in order to release from the Security the
              Contracts and the related Receivables identified therein; provided
              that such release will not result in the aggregate principal
              amount of all Advances outstanding on such day of repayment being
              greater than the Credit Facility Limit on such day.

         2.5.4 On the date of any repayment effected pursuant to this Section
2.5, the Borrower shall deposit to the Lender's Account such repayment amount
together with all interest accrued and unpaid with respect to the Advance (or
the part thereof) that is then repaid by the Borrower to the extent that any
such repayment amount or interest thereon is not deposited to the Lender's
Account pursuant to Section 8.2.1(a) or 8.2.1(b), as applicable.

2.6      Step-Up Trigger Event

         2.6.1 A step-up trigger event (a "Step-Up Trigger Event") shall occur
if, as of the last day of any Monthly Period, the Cumulative Net Loss Ratio of
any Quarterly Origination Pool exceeds the permissible Cumulative Net Loss Ratio
set out in column B of Part II of Schedule F which corresponds to the applicable
seasoning of such Quarterly Origination Pool set out in column A of Part II of
Schedule F. Following the occurrence of a Step-Up Trigger Event, all Advances
shall be made on the basis of an Advance Rate of 70%.

         2.6.2 Within two (2) Business Days of the occurrence of a Step-up
Trigger Event, the Borrower shall deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate to the
Lender setting out the Borrowing Base and the Receivables Borrowing Base (each
calculated on the basis of an Advance Rate of 70%) as of the date of the
occurrence of such Step-Up Trigger Event.

         2.6.3 Following the occurrence of a Step-Up Trigger Event, in the event
that the Borrower requests an Advance, the Lender shall only make such Advance
provided that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances on the
applicable Drawdown Date (after the making of such Advance) would be equal to or
less than the Receivables Borrowing Base on such date (calculated on the basis
of an Advance Rate of 70%).

         2.6.4 Following the occurrence of a Step-Up Trigger Event, the Borrower
shall on the date that the Borrowing Base Certificate referred to in Section
2.6.2 is delivered to the Lender:

         (a)  repay to the Lender by depositing to the Lender's Account (i) an
              amount equal to the Excess Advances (calculated on the basis of an
              Advance Rate of 70%),
<PAGE>

                                      -7-

              together with (ii) all interest accrued and unpaid hereunder with
              respect to any Advance (or the part thereof) that is repaid
              pursuant to this Section 2.6.4(a); or

         (b)  provided that no Event of Default or Pending Event of Default has
              occurred and is then continuing, deliver to the Lender, in both
              written and electronic format, a Schedule of Additional Contracts
              dated such date identifying additional Contracts and the related
              Receivables which (i) immediately prior to such date, did not form
              part of the Collateral, (ii) the Borrower wishes to include as
              part of the Collateral, and (iii) have an Aggregate Outstanding
              Balance as of the close of business on the first Business Day
              prior to the date of such Schedule of Additional Contracts which,
              when multiplied by the Advance Rate, equals the Excess Advances;
              or

         (c)  notify the Lender in writing of its intention to reduce the
              aggregate principal amount of all Advances outstanding on such
              date by an amount equal to the Excess Advances by applying, in
              accordance with Section 8.2.1(c), any moneys available from time
              to time in the Collection Account for such purpose.

         2.6.5 The Borrower shall on demand by the Lender indemnify the Lender
for any loss or expense (including breakage costs) which the Lender incurs as a
result of any repayment made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.6.4(a) or
(c).

                                   ARTICLE 3
                           INTEREST and COMMITMENT FEE

3.1      Interest on Advances

         3.1.1 Each Advance shall bear interest in Canadian Dollars during each
Interest Period applicable thereto, on the outstanding amount of such Advance,
at a rate per annum equal to the CDOR for such Interest Period plus 1.25% per
annum.

         3.1.2 Subject to the terms of this Agreement, interest in respect of
each Advance shall accrue from day to day and shall be payable monthly on each
Payment Date, not in advance, calculated on the basis of the Interest Period

              Payment Date;

       (b)    second, the Borrower shall, on each day that the Borrower is

              Borrower) an amount equal to such repayment;

       (c)    third, following the occurrence of a Step-Up Trigger Event, in the
              event that the Borrower has notified the Lender pursuant to
              Section 2.6.4(c), the Borrower shall on each Business Day deposit
              into the Lender's Account (or as the Lender may otherwise direct
              in writing to the Borrower) an amount equal to the balance in the
              Collection Account on such day until such time as the Lender has
              been repaid an amount equal to the Excess Advances;

       (d)    fourth, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the
              Borrower shall, on demand by the Lender, pay the reasonable fees
              and expenses of any receiver or receiver and manager appointed by
              the Lender pursuant to the Security Agreement;

       (e)    fifth, the Borrower shall on each Payment Date deposit into the
              Lender's Account (or as the Lender may otherwise direct in writing
              to the Borrower) any principal and other amounts due from the
              Borrower, the Guarantor or the Custodian to the Lender under any
              Credit Documents; and

       (f)    sixth, the Borrower shall on each Payment Date deposit any balance
              remaining in the Collection Account to the Borrower's Account;
              provided that the Borrower shall not withdraw any amount from the
              Collection Account if the aggregate outstanding principal amount
              of all Advances on such Payment Date is greater than the
              Receivables Borrowing Base on such Payment Date; and provided
              further that after the occurrence of an Event of Default no amount
              shall be paid to the Borrower from the Collection Account until
              such time as the Obligations are
<PAGE>

                                     -23-

              repaid in full and all amounts in the Collection Account shall be
              paid to the Lender on account of the Obligations.

       8.2.2  Nothing in Section 8.2.1 shall be construed as limiting the
Lender's recourse against the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Credit
Document.

       8.2.3  Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Lender shall
not give BNS notice of the Lender's election to assume exclusive ownership and
control of the Collection Account.

8.3    Custodial Agreements

       8.3.1  The Custodian agrees to act as the agent of the Lender in holding
all Contracts and other Contract Files forming part of the Collateral and agrees
that it shall not act as the agent of any other Person in doing so.

       8.3.2  The Custodian shall (i) hold all Contract Files forming part of
the Collateral in trust for the Lender and segregated from its own property at
its address specified in Section 12.10.2, (ii) deliver all such Contract Files
to the Lender forthwith upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (iii) not
relinquish possession of such Contract Files to any Person other than the Lender
(or as the Lender may otherwise direct in writing to the Custodian), and (iv)
forthwith upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, deliver to the Lender all
records, files and documents (whether in written or electronic format) relating
to the servicing or collection of any Contracts and the related Receivables
forming part of the Collateral (collectively, the "Servicing Records") which are
in its possession.

       8.3.3  The Custodian shall indemnify the Lender against any liability,
obligation, loss or expense which the Lender may sustain or incur as a
consequence of any failure or default by the Custodian in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement. A certificate of the Lender as to the amount
of any such liability, obligation, loss or expense shall be prima facie evidence
of the amount thereof, in the absence of manifest miscalculation or error.

obligation to make Advances and may declare its obligations to make Advances to
be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (ii) may
declare the Obligations hereunder or any of them to be forthwith due and
payable, whereupon they shall become and be forthwith due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

       Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to the Lender
under the Credit Documents or at law, upon the making of a declaration
contemplated by Section 9.2, the Lender shall take such action or proceedings as
the Lender in its sole discretion may deem expedient to enforce or realize upon
the Security, all without any additional notice, presentment, demand, protest or
other formality, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

9.4    Saving

Person to realize any Collateral subject to the Security or enforce the Security
or any part thereof or to require the enforcement of the Security or any part
thereof or to allow any of such Collateral to be sold, dealt with or otherwise
disposed of. The Lender shall not be responsible or liable to the Borrower or
any other Person for any loss or damage upon the realization or enforcement of,
the failure to realize or enforce such Collateral or any part thereof or the
failure to allow any such Collateral to be sold, dealt with or otherwise
disposed of or for any act or omission on its part or on the part of any

foregoing shall be secured by the Security.

powers which the Lender or any such agent is purporting to exercise are or have
become exercisable, or whether any Obligations remain outstanding upon the
security thereof, or as to the necessity or expediency of the stipulations and
conditions subject to which any sale shall be made, or otherwise as to the
<PAGE>

                                     -28-

propriety or regularity of any sale or other disposition or any other dealing
with the Collateral charged by such Security or any part thereof.

9.7    Remedies Cumulative

       The rights and remedies of the Lender under the Credit Documents are

remedies provided by law. Any single or partial exercise by the Lender of any
right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or
agreement contained herein or in any of the other Credit Documents shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect, or prejudice any other right or
remedy or other rights or remedies to which the Lender may be lawfully entitled
for the same default or breach. Any waiver by the Lender of the strict
observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant, condition or
agreement contained herein or in any of the other Credit Documents, and any
indulgence granted by the Lender shall be deemed not to be a waiver of any
subsequent default.

9.8    Set-Off or Compensation

       In addition to and not in limitation of any rights now or hereafter
granted under applicable law, if repayment is accelerated pursuant to Section
9.2, the Lender may at any time and from time to time without notice to the
Borrower or any other Person, any notice being expressly waived by the Borrower,
set off and compensate and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time
or demand, provisional or final, matured or unmatured, and any other
indebtedness at any time owing by the Lender to or for the credit of or the
account of the Borrower, against and on account of the Obligations hereunder
notwithstanding that any of them are contingent or unmatured.

10.1   Change in Law

       In the event of any change in any applicable law, rule, guideline,
regulation, treaty or official directive (whether or not having the force of

governmental agency, central bank or other authority or entity charged with the
administration thereof with which the Lender is required to comply or with which
the Lender, in its sole discretion, considers it necessary or advisable to
comply and which now or hereafter:

       (a)    subjects the Lender to any Tax or changes the basis of taxation,
              or increases any existing Tax, on payments of principal, interest,
              fees or other amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lender under

              respect of any Advances, the Credit Facility Limit or any other
              condition with respect to this Agreement,

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to, or
reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount received or receivable
by the Lender hereunder or its effective return hereunder in respect of making,
maintaining or funding such Advance, the Lender shall determine that amount of
money which shall compensate it for such increase in cost or reduction in income
(herein referred to as "Additional Compensation"). Upon the Lender having
determined that it is entitled to Additional Compensation in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 10.1, the Lender shall promptly so notify the
Borrower. The Lender shall provide to the Borrower a photocopy of the relevant
law, rule, guideline, regulation, treaty or official directive and a certificate
of a duly authorized officer of the Lender setting forth the Additional
Compensation and the basis of calculation therefor, which shall be prima facie
evidence of such Additional Compensation in the absence of manifest
miscalculation or error. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender within ten (10)
Business Days of the giving of such notice the Additional Compensation
calculated to the date of such notification.

10.2   Repayment of Rateable Portion

       If the Lender gives the notice provided for in Section 10.1 with respect
to any Advance (an "Affected Advance"), the Borrower may, upon two (2) Business
Days' notice to that effect given to the Lender (which notice shall be
irrevocable), repay in full the Affected Advance together with accrued and
unpaid interest on the principal amount so prepaid up to the date of such
repayment and such Additional Compensation as may be applicable to the date of
such payment, provided that the provisions of Section 2.5 shall apply to any
such repayment, and upon such payment being made the Lender's obligations, if
any, to make Advances under this Agreement shall terminate and the Credit
Facility Limit shall be reduced by the amount repaid.

10.3   Illegality

       If the adoption of any applicable law, regulation, treaty or official
directive (whether or not having the force of law) or any change therein or in
the interpretation or application thereof by any court or by any governmental or
other authority or central bank or comparable agency or any other entity charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance by the Lender
with any request or direction (whether or not having the force of law) of any
such authority, central bank or comparable agency or entity, now or hereafter
makes it unlawful or impossible for the Lender to make, fund or maintain an
Advance or to give effect to its obligations in respect of such an Advance, the
Lender may, by written notice thereof to the Borrower declare its obligations
under this Agreement to be terminated whereupon the same shall forthwith
terminate, and the Borrower shall repay within the time required by such law (or
at the end of such longer period as the Lender in its discretion has agreed to)
the principal or face amount of such Advance together with accrued interest,
such Additional Compensation as may be applicable to the date of such payment
provided that the provisions of Section 2.5 shall apply to any such repayment.
If any such change shall only affect a portion of the Lender's obligations under
this Agreement which is, in the opinion of the Lender, severable from the
remainder of this Agreement so that the remainder of this Agreement may be
continued in full force and effect

                                     -30-

without otherwise affecting any of the obligations of the Borrower hereunder,
the Lender shall only declare its obligations under that portion so terminated.

                             SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

11.1   Successors and Assigns

       11.1.1 The Credit Documents to which the Borrower is a party shall enure
to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns and shall be binding
upon and enure to the benefit of the Borrower and its successors and permitted
assigns. The Borrower shall not assign any rights or obligations with respect to
this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents to which it is party,
without the prior written consent of the Lender.

       This Agreement shall be binding upon the Custodian and its successors and
permitted assigns. The Custodian shall not assign any rights and obligations
with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents to which it
is party without the prior written consent of the Lender.

       The rights and obligations of the Lender under this Agreement are
assignable in whole or in part to (i) any Person which is not a non-resident of
Canada within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or (ii) any Person
which is a non-resident of Canada within the meaning of the Income Tax Act
(Canada); provided that in connection with any assignment referred to in clause
(ii) immediately above, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the
Lender or the applicable assignee for any Canadian withholding taxes imposed on
payments made by the Borrower hereunder which arise pursuant to such assignment.
The Lender may grant participations in the Credit Facility to any Person. The
Borrower hereby consents to the disclosure of any information relating to the
Borrower to any potential assignee or participant; provided that the Lender
shall not disclose to any potential participant any information relating to the
Borrower, the Custodian or the Collateral which is not publicly available until
such time as such potential participant has entered into a confidentiality
agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the
Lender.

       Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Lender agrees
that it shall not offer to assign any portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement without providing prior written notice thereof to the
Borrower; provided that after the occurrence of an Event of Default which has
not been waived no such notice shall be required. The Lender shall not be
required to provide notice to the Borrower of the granting of any participation
in the Credit Facility.

       11.1.2 A participation by the Lender of its interest (or a part thereof)
hereunder or a payment by a participant to the Lender as a result of the
participation will not constitute a payment hereunder to the Lender or an
Advance to the Borrower.

                                     -31-

11.2   Participation

       The Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or
a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, but the
participant shall not thereby become a lender to the Borrower and:

       (a)    the Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain
              unchanged;

       (b)    the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the Borrower for the
              performance of such obligations;

       (c)    the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the
              Lender in connection with the Lender's rights and obligations
              under this Agreement; and

       (d)    no participant shall have any right to approve any amendment or
              waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any
              departure by any Person therefrom.

                                   ARTICLE 12
                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

12.1   Capitalized Terms

       All capitalized terms used in any of the Credit Documents to which the
Lender and the Borrower are parties which are defined in this Agreement shall
have the respective meanings defined herein unless otherwise defined in the
other Credit Document.

12.2   Severability

       Any provision of this Agreement which is or becomes prohibited or
unenforceable in any relevant jurisdiction shall not invalidate or impair the
remaining provisions hereof which shall be deemed severable from such prohibited
or unenforceable provision and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
such jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction. Should this Agreement fail to provide for any relevant
matter, the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement shall not be
affected.

12.3   Amendment, Supplement or Waiver

       No amendment, supplement or waiver of any provision of any of the Credit
Documents, nor any consent to any departure by the Borrower or the Custodian
therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing, makes express reference
to the provision affected thereby and is signed by the Lender (and, in the case
of an amendment or supplement to this Agreement, by the Lender, the Borrower and
the Custodian), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No waiver or act
or omission of the Lender shall extend to or be taken in any manner whatsoever
to affect any subsequent Event of Default or breach by the Borrower or the
Custodian of any provision of the Credit Documents to which it is a party or the
rights resulting therefrom.
<PAGE>

                                     -32-

12.4   Governing Law

       Each of the Credit Documents, except for those which expressly provide
otherwise, shall be conclusively deemed to be a contract made under, and shall
for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable in Ontario.
Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally attorns to
the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario and all courts competent
to hear appeals therefrom.

12.5   This Agreement to Govern

       In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the
terms of any other Credit Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall
govern to the extent necessary to remove the conflict.

12.6   Permitted Encumbrances

       The designation of an Encumbrance as a Permitted Encumbrance is not, and
shall not be deemed to be, an acknowledgment by the Lender that such Encumbrance
shall have priority over the Security.

12.7   Expenses and Indemnity

       All statements, reports, certificates, opinions, appraisals and other
documents or information required to be furnished to the Lender by the Borrower
or the Custodian under this Agreement shall be supplied without cost to the
Lender. The Borrower shall pay on demand all reasonable out of pocket costs and
expenses of the Lender (including long distance telephone and courier charges
and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to the Lender), incurred
in connection with (i) the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
periodic review, modification or amendment of the Credit Documents; (ii) any
enforcement of the Credit Documents; (iii) obtaining advice as to its rights and
responsibilities in connection with this Agreement and the Credit Documents;
(iv) reviewing, inspecting and appraising the Collateral that is the subject of
the Security at reasonable intervals; and (v) all other matters relating to this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents; provided that, prior to the occurrence
of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall not be required to pay the Lender in
any given calendar year more than U.S.$20,000 (or the Canadian Dollar equivalent
thereof) on account of out-of-pocket costs and expenses relating to the Lender's
ongoing due diligence in respect of, and the Lender's monitoring of, the
Borrower and the performance of its obligations under the Credit Documents; and
provided further that the Borrower shall not be required to pay the Lender more
than U.S.$75,000 (or the Canadian Dollar equivalent thereof) in connection with
legal fees (exclusive of taxes and disbursements) payable by the Lender to
McCarthy Tetrault LLP relating to services performed up to the date hereof in
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents. Such
costs and expenses shall be payable whether or not an Advance is made under this
Agreement.

       The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender against any liability,
obligation, loss or expense which it may sustain or incur as a consequence of
(i) any representation or warranty made herein by the Borrower which was
incorrect at the time it was made or deemed to have been made, (ii) a
<PAGE>

                                     -33-

default by the Borrower in the payment of any sum due from it (irrespective of
whether an Advance is deemed to be made to the Borrower to pay the amount that
the Borrower has failed to pay), including, but not limited to, all sums
(whether in respect of principal, interest or any other amount) paid or payable
to lenders of funds borrowed by the Lender in order to fund the amount of any
such unpaid amount to the extent the Lender is not reimbursed pursuant to any
other provision of this Agreement, (iii) the failure of the Borrower to complete
any Advance or make any payment after notice therefor has been given under this
Agreement, and (iv) any other default by the Borrower hereunder. A certificate
of the Lender as to the amount of any such liability, obligations, loss or
expense shall be prima facie evidence as to the amount thereof, in the absence
of manifest miscalculation or error.

       In addition, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lender and its directors,
officers, employees and representatives (the "Indemnified Parties") from and
against any and all actions, proceedings, claims, losses, damages, liabilities,
expenses and obligations of any kind that may be incurred by or asserted against
any of them by any third party as a result of or in connection with the making
of any Advance hereunder, other than any such claim arising from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of the Lender or any other Indemnified Party.
Whenever any such claim shall arise, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify
the Borrower of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for
such claim, and if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the claim.
The failure of an Indemnified Party to give notice of a claim promptly shall not
adversely affect the Indemnified Party's rights to indemnity hereunder, except
to the extent such failure adversely affects the right of the Borrower to assert
any reasonable defense to such claim. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or
compromise any claim by a third party for which it is entitled to
indemnification under this Section 12.7, without the prior written consent of
the Borrower. The Borrower at its sole cost and expense may, upon written notice
to the Indemnified Party, assume the defense of any such claim or any legal
proceeding resulting therefrom. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to
participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with its own
counsel and at its own expense. If the Borrower does not assume the defense of
any such claim or litigation resulting therefrom, the Indemnified Party may
defend against such claim or litigation, in such manner as it may deem
appropriate and at the expense of the Borrower, including, but not limited to,
settling such claim or litigation, after giving notice of the same to and
receiving the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld). In such case the Borrower shall be entitled to participate in (but
not control) the defense of such action, with its own counsel and at its own
expense.

       The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations.

12.8   Manner of Payment and Taxes

       All payments to be made by the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Documents
are to be made without set-off, compensation or counterclaim, free and clear of
and without deduction for or on account of any Tax, including but not limited to
withholding taxes, other than taxes on the overall net income of the Lender. If
any Tax is deducted or withheld from any payments under the Credit Documents,
the Borrower shall promptly remit to the Lender in the currency in which such
payment was made, the equivalent of the amount of Tax so deducted or withheld
together
<PAGE>

                                     -34-

with the relevant receipt addressed to the Lender. If the Borrower is prevented
by operation of law or otherwise from paying, causing to be paid or remitting
such Tax, the interest or other amount payable under the Credit Documents will
be increased to such rates as are necessary to yield and remit to the Lender the
principal sum advanced or made available together with interest at the rates
specified in the Credit Documents after provision for payment of such Tax.

       If the Borrower makes any payment pursuant to the immediately preceding
paragraph, and the Lender receives any tax benefit under the laws of Canada, any
political subdivision thereof or any other jurisdiction that the Lender would
not have received had the Borrower not made the payment, the Lender shall pay
the Borrower the amount of the tax benefit after it is received, to the extent
that the payment by the Lender does not place the Lender in a worse position
than it would have been had no payment been made by the Borrower. If the
Borrower makes any payment under this Section for the account of the Lender, the
Lender shall take reasonable steps to minimize the net amount payable by the
Borrower under this Section, but the Lender shall not be obliged to disclose any
information to the Borrower concerning its income or taxes that is not otherwise
publicly available.

12.9   Currency Indemnity

       In the event of a judgment or order being rendered by any court or
tribunal for the payment of any amounts owing under this Agreement or any other
Credit Document or for the payment of damages in respect of any breach of this
Agreement or any other Credit Document or under or in respect of a judgment or
order of another court or tribunal for the payment of such amounts or damages,
such judgment or order being expressed in a currency (the "Judgment Currency")
other than the currency payable hereunder or thereunder (the "Agreed Currency"),
each party against whom the judgment or order is made shall indemnify and hold
each party in whose favour the judgment or order is made harmless against any
deficiency in terms of the Agreed Currency in the amounts received by such party
arising or resulting from any variation as between (i) the exchange rate at
which the Agreed Currency is converted into the Judgment Currency for the
purposes of such judgment or order, and (ii) the exchange rate at which such
party is able to purchase the Agreed Currency with the amount of the Judgment
Currency actually received by such party on the date of such receipt. The
indemnity in this Section shall constitute a separate and independent obligation
from the other obligations of the parties hereunder, shall apply irrespective of
any indulgence granted hereunder, and, if such obligation is owed by the
Borrower, shall be secured by the Security.

12.10  Notices

       12.10.1 Any notice, document or other communication required or permitted
