(d)   The number of Company Shares issued to Insiders from treasury pursuant to the              Deferred Share Units credited under this Plan, together with any other              compensation arrangement of the Company that provides for the issuance of              Company Shares from treasury, shall not, within a one (1) year period, exceed ten              percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding Company Shares.         (e)   This Section 3.1 and the Company’s right to elect under Section 5.4(b) will be              effective only upon receipt of all necessary shareholder approvals of this Plan, as              amended from time to time, as required by the rules, regulations and policies of              the Toronto Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange and any other stock              exchange on which Company Shares are listed or traded.                                    ARTICLE 4                             PLAN PARTICIPATION   4.1   Time of Election         (a)   The amount of any Automatic DSU Retainer and the amount of any Initial              Retainer which becomes payable to a Participant after the Effective Date of the              Plan shall be satisfied by crediting to the Participant’s Account Deferred Share              Units pursuant to Section 5.1.         (b)   Each Participant shall have the right to elect, in advance, the portion of his or her              DSU Eligible Retainer (in increments of five percent (5%)) that the Participant              wishes to be satisfied by way of Deferred Share Units credited to his or her              Account under the Plan (with the remainder, if any, to be received in cash), and              shall have the right to amend or revoke such election annually, within the time              periods specified below. The election or amended election, as the case may be,                                             

 

shall be made by completing, signing and delivering to the Committee or the  Administrator, a written election and acknowledgement in the form attached to  the Plan as Schedule “A”, or such similar form of election and acknowledgement  acceptable to the Committee or the Administrator (the “Election and  Acknowledgement Form”). In order to make such election, the Participant must  submit his or her Election and Acknowledgement Form as follows:   (i)   in the case of an existing Director, subject to subparagraph (iii) below, an        election or amended election, as the case may be, must be filed within the        period beginning after the third Business Day following the expiry of a        Regular Trading Blackout, within the meaning of the Company’s insider        trading policy, during the fourth Fiscal Quarter of the Fiscal Year        immediately preceding the commencement of the Fiscal Year in respect of        which the election applies, and ending (A) in the case of a Director who is        not a U.S. Taxpayer, on the January 31st immediately preceding the Fiscal        Year in respect of which the election applies, and (B) in the case of a        Director who is a U.S. Taxpayer, on the December 31st immediately        preceding the Fiscal Year in respect of which the election applies;   (ii)  in the case of a new Director, subject to subparagraph (iii) below, as soon        as possible, and in any event no later than twenty-one (21) days after his        or her election or appointment as a Director, with such election to apply in        respect of any portion of the DSU Eligible Retainer that is payable after        the date the relevant Election and Acknowledgement Form is received by        the Committee or the Administrator and in the Fiscal Year during which        such election or appointment is made;   (iii) notwithstanding subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, under no circumstances        may an Election and Acknowledgement Form be filed until after the        second Business Day following the expiry of a Regular Trading Blackout        or a Special Trading Blackout, each within the meaning of the Company’s        insider trading policy. In the event that an Election and Acknowledgement        Form would otherwise be required to be filed within the period of a        Regular Trading Blackout or a Special Trading Blackout, the filing        deadline will be extended as follows: (A) in the case of an existing        Director who is not a U.S. Taxpayer, until the final Business Day of the        Fiscal Year immediately preceding the Fiscal Year in respect of which the        election applies; and (B) in the case of a new Director, the Business Day        immediately prior to the first Award Date immediately following his or        her election as a Director; provided however, that in any circumstance        where a Regular Trading Blackout or Special Trading Blackout continues        until the date when an Election and Acknowledgement Form would        otherwise be permitted to be filed under this subparagraph (iii), an existing        Director will not be permitted to file an amended election in respect of the        subsequent Fiscal Year, and in the case of a new Director, the portion of        his or her DSU Eligible Retainer to be satisfied in Deferred Share Units        for the Fiscal Year will be deemed to be fifty (50) percent.                                              

 

            Any such election shall be irrevocable in respect of the Fiscal Year for which it is              originally made and will continue in effect thereafter until it is amended in              accordance with this Section 4.1(b). Deferred Share Units shall be credited to the              Participant’s Account in accordance with Section 5.1. Except in the case of a new              Director, if no election has been validly made in respect of a Director’s DSU              Eligible Retainer within the time specified in 4.1(b) above, the Director’s full              DSU Eligible Retainer shall be paid in cash in accordance with the Company’s              normal Director compensation policies.   4.2   Effect of Election         The number of Deferred Share Units credited to a Participant’s Account shall be        considered to be Company Shares solely for the purpose of any requirements or        guidelines of the Company with respect to a Director’s required holding of Company        Shares.                                    ARTICLE 5                            DEFERRED SHARE UNITS   5.1   Grant of Deferred Share Units         (a)   Subject to the following sentence, all Deferred Share Units granted to a              Participant in respect of a Fiscal Year shall be credited to the Participant’s              Account in quarterly installments effective as of the Award Date for that grant              (with the exception of a Participant’s Initial Retainer, which shall be credited to              the Participant’s Account in full on the first Award Date following the              Participant’s appointment or election as a Director). With respect to any Fiscal              Quarter during which the Participant ceases to serve as a Director, a pro rata              portion of the quarterly installment otherwise applicable shall be credited to the              Participant’s Account on the applicable Award Date based on the number of days              within the Fiscal Quarter during which the Participant served as a Director.              Deferred Share Units credited to a Participant’s Account in accordance with this              Section 5.1 shall be fully vested at the time awarded.         (b)   The number of Deferred Share Units (including fractional Deferred Share Units              rounded to the fourth decimal place) to be credited to the Participant’s Account in              respect of such Participant’s Initial Retainer and/or Automatic DSU Retainer shall              be determined by dividing (i) the amount of the Participant’s Initial Retainer              and/or Automatic DSU Retainer, expressed in dollars and otherwise payable on              such Award Date in accordance with the Company’s normal Director              compensation policies by (ii) the Award Market Value for the applicable Award              Date.         (c)   In the case of a Participant who has made an election pursuant to Section 4.1(b),              the number of Deferred Share Units (including fractional Deferred Share Units              rounded to the fourth decimal place) to be credited to the Participant’s Account in              respect of such Participant’s DSU Eligible Retainer shall be determined by                                              

 

            dividing (i) the amount of the Participant’s DSU Eligible Retainer, expressed in              dollars, that the Participant elects to have satisfied in the form of Deferred Share              Units by (ii) the Award Market Value for the applicable Award Date.   5.2   Credits for Dividends         A Participant’s Account shall be credited with Dividend Equivalents in the form of        additional Deferred Share Units (including fractional Deferred Share Units rounded to the        fourth decimal place) as of each Dividend Payment Date. The number of such Dividend        Equivalents (rounded to the fourth decimal place) to be credited to a Participant’s        Account shall be computed by dividing:         (a)   the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of the dividend declared and paid              per Company Share (or in the case of a stock dividend in the ordinary course, the              cash equivalent thereof per Company Share based on the Dividend Market              Value), expressed in dollars, by the number of Deferred Share Units recorded in              the Participant’s Account on the Dividend Record Date, by         (b)   the Dividend Market Value, in respect of the dividend giving rise to the Dividend              Equivalents.         Dividend Equivalents credited to a Participant’s Account in accordance with this Section        5.2 shall be fully vested at the time awarded.   5.3   Reporting of Deferred Share Units         Statements of the Deferred Share Units in Participants’ Accounts will be provided to the        Participants by the Administrator at least annually. Statements shall contain such        information as the Committee may determine, in its discretion, from time to time or as        otherwise may be required by law.   5.4   Redemption of Deferred Share Units         (a)   On the Redemption Date, the Company shall make to a Participant a cash              payment equal to the product of the number of Deferred Share Units recorded in              the Participant’s Account (other than Deferred Share Units forfeited in accordance              with Section 5.4(c) of this Plan) multiplied by the weighted average trading price              of a Company Share on the Toronto Stock Exchange, if the Participant is not a              U.S. Participant, or the New York Stock Exchange, if the Participant is a U.S.              Participant (or if the Company Shares are not then listed on the Toronto Stock              Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange, as applicable, any other stock              exchange on which Company Shares are listed) for the five (5) trading days              immediately preceding the Redemption Date, less Applicable Withholding Taxes.         (b)   Subject to Section 5.4(d), and the receipt of all necessary shareholder approvals as              required under the rules, regulations and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange,              the New York Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which Company              Shares are listed or traded, the Company may, in lieu of the cash payment                                             

 

      contemplated in Section 5.4(a) above, on the Redemption Date elect to either        issue to the Participant or, through a broker designated by the Participant who is        independent from the Company and any Affiliate (the “Designated Broker”),        acquire on behalf of such Participant, the number of whole Company Shares that        is equal to the number of whole Deferred Share Units recorded in the Participant’s        Account (other than Deferred Share Units forfeited in accordance with Section        5.4(c) of this Plan) on the Redemption Date (less any amounts in respect of        Applicable Withholding Taxes). If the Company elects to arrange for the purchase        of Company Shares by a Designated Broker on behalf of the Participant, the        Company shall contribute to the Designated Broker an amount of cash sufficient,        together with any reasonable brokerage fees or commission fees related thereto, to        purchase the whole number of Company Shares to which the Participant is        entitled and the Designated Broker shall, as soon as practicable thereafter,        purchase those Company Shares, on behalf of such Participant, on a stock        exchange on which the Company Shares are listed or traded. In lieu of purchasing        or issuing any fractional Company Share, as the case may be, any fractional        Deferred Share Units in a Participant’s Account shall be paid to the Participant (or        used to satisfy any Applicable Withholding Taxes) as a lump sum cash amount        (computed to the nearest cent and net of Applicable Withholding Taxes) equal to        the relevant number of fractional Deferred Share Units multiplied by the weighted        average trading price of a Company Share on the Toronto Stock Exchange if the        Participant is not a U.S. Participant, or the New York Stock Exchange, if the        Participant is a U.S. Participant, for the five (5) trading days immediately        preceding the Redemption Date.   (c)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, but subject to Section        5.4(d), if the Deferred Share Units of a U.S. Taxpayer are subject to tax under        both the income tax laws of Canada and the income tax laws of the United States,        the following special rules regarding forfeiture will apply. For greater clarity,        these forfeiture provisions are intended to avoid adverse tax consequences under        IRC Section 409A and/or under paragraph (d) of Regulation 6801 to the ITA that        may result because of the different requirements as to the time of redemption of        Deferred Share Units (and thus the time of taxation) with respect to a U.S.        Taxpayer’s Separation from Service (under U.S. tax law) and a Termination        Event (under Canadian tax law). The intended consequence of this Section 5.4(c)        of the Plan is that payments to U.S. Taxpayers in respect of Deferred Share Units        will only occur if such U.S. Taxpayer experiences both a Separation from Service        and a Termination Event. If a U.S. Taxpayer does not experience both a        Separation from Service and a Termination Event, including in the following        circumstances enumerated below, such Deferred Share Units shall instead be        immediately and irrevocably forfeited:         (i)   a U.S. Taxpayer experiences a Separation from Service as a result of a              permanent decrease in the level of services such U.S. Taxpayer provides              to the Company or a related entity that is considered the same service              recipient under IRC Section 409A to less than 20% of his or her past              service, but such U.S. Taxpayer continues to provide some level of service                                                    

 

                  to the Company or a corporation related to the Company within the                    meaning of the ITA;               (ii)  a U.S. Taxpayer experiences a Separation from Service for the purposes of                    a distribution required under IRC Section 409A as a result of ceasing to be                    a member of the board of directors of the Company, but such U.S.                    Taxpayer continues providing services as an employee of the Company or                    a corporation related to the Company within the meaning of the ITA; or               (iii) a U.S. Taxpayer experiences a Termination Event, but such U.S. Taxpayer                    continues to provide services as an independent contractor such that he or                    she has not experienced a Separation of Service.         (d)   Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, all amounts payable to, or in              respect of, a Participant under this Section 5.4, including, without limitation, the              issuance or delivery of Company Shares or a lump sum cash payment, shall be              paid or delivered on or before December 31 of the calendar year commencing              immediately following the Participant’s Termination Event.         (e)   Subject to Section 5.4(d) above, the Committee or the Administrator will use              commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that delivery of the Company Shares              and/or any cash payment required by this Section 5.4, is made within ten (10)              Business Days after such Redemption Date.         (f)   Upon payment of any amount pursuant to this Section 5.4 in cash or Company              Shares, as the case may be, the particular Deferred Share Units in respect of              which such payment was made shall be cancelled and no further payments              (whether in Company Shares or cash or otherwise) shall be made in relation to              such Deferred Share Units.   5.5   Adjustments to Deferred Share Units         In the event of any subdivision, consolidation or distribution of Company Shares to its        shareholders (excluding by way of dividend payment in the ordinary course or a        distribution of Company Shares under any compensation arrangement of the Company or        any of its subsidiaries or other Affiliates controlled by the Company, that contemplates        the issuance of Company Shares from treasury), or upon a capital reorganization,        reclassification, exchange, or other change with respect to the Company Shares, or a        consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or other form of business combination of the        Company with another Person, or a sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of        the property of the Company or other distribution of the Company’s assets to        shareholders (other than by way of dividend payment in the ordinary course), then the        Account of each Participant and the Deferred Share Units outstanding under the Plan        shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, as the Directors and the Committee deem        appropriate in order to preserve, proportionally, the interests of Participants under the        Plan, provided that the dollar value of Deferred Share Units credited to a Participant’s        Account immediately after such an adjustment shall not exceed the dollar value of the                                              

 

      Deferred Share Units credited to such Participant’s Account immediately prior thereto        and provided further that the value of Deferred Share Units shall always depend on the        fair market value of Company Shares. All adjustments under this Section 5.5 shall, at all        times, be in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the IRC and paragraph        (d) of Regulation 6801 to the ITA.                                    ARTICLE 6                                    GENERAL   6.1   Amendment, Suspension, or Termination of Plan         (a)   Subject to Sections 6.1(b) and 6.1(c), the Directors may amend, suspend or              terminate this Plan, or any portion thereof, without shareholder approval, at any              time, subject to those provisions of applicable law (including, without limitation,              the rules, regulations and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New              York Stock Exchange), if any, that require the approval of shareholders or any              governmental or regulatory body be obtained. However, except as expressly set              forth herein, no such amendment, suspension, or termination may adversely affect              Deferred Share Units previously granted to a Participant at the time of such              amendment without the consent of the affected Participant(s) and no such              amendment, suspension or termination shall be such that the Deferred Share Units              or this Plan cease to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the IRC              and paragraph (d) of Regulation 6801 to the ITA. Without limiting the generality              of the foregoing, the Directors may make the following types of amendments to              the Plan without seeking shareholder approval:               (i)   amendments of a “housekeeping” or administrative nature including,                    without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any amendment for the                    purpose of curing any ambiguity, error or omission in the Plan or to                    correct or supplement any provision of the Plan that is inconsistent with                    any other provision of the Plan;               (ii)  amendments necessary to comply with the provisions of applicable law                    (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the                    Toronto Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange, paragraph (d) of                    Regulation 6801 to the ITA and Section 409A of the IRC and related                    authority);               (iii) amendments respecting administration of the Plan;               (iv)  any amendment to add or modify the vesting or redemption provisions of                    the Plan or any Deferred Share Unit;               (v)   any amendment to the definition of “Participant” or otherwise relating to                    the eligibility of any Participant;               (vi)  any amendment to facilitate the participation in the Plan by, and the                    granting of Deferred Share Units to, Directors who are subject to the laws                                             

 

                  of countries other than those of Canada, which grants may have terms and                    conditions that differ from the terms thereof as provided elsewhere in the                    Plan for the purpose of complying with foreign laws;               (vii) amendments necessary to suspend or terminate the Plan; and               (viii) any other amendment, whether fundamental or otherwise, not requiring                    shareholder approval under applicable law (including, without limitation,                    the rules, regulations and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the                    New York Stock Exchange).               Shareholder approval will be required for the following types of amendments               (i)   amendments to the number of Company Shares issuable from treasury                    under the Plan, including an increase to a fixed maximum number of                    Company Shares or a change from a fixed maximum number of Company                    Shares to a fixed maximum percentage;               (ii)  any amendment which would permit discretionary grants of Deferred                    Share Units to Directors;               (iii) any amendment to remove or exceed the insider participation limits;               (iv)  any amendments to this amendment provision; and               (v)   amendments required to be approved by shareholders under applicable law                    (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the                    Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange).         (b)   Notwithstanding Section 6.1(a), the Plan may not be amended, suspended or              terminated in any way that has the effect of accelerating payments to U.S.              Taxpayers contrary to the requirements of Section 409A of the IRC.         (c)   Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article VI, any amendment, suspension or              termination of the Plan shall be such that the Plan and the Deferred Share Units              granted thereunder continuously satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the              IRC and paragraph (d) of Regulation 6801 to the ITA.         (d)   The Plan will finally cease to operate for all purposes when the last remaining              Participant receives payment in respect of all Deferred Share Units recorded in the              Participant’s Account.   6.2   Compliance with Laws         The administration of the Plan shall be subject to and made in conformity with all        applicable laws, regulations, policies, rules, notices and administrative practices        (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the Toronto Stock        Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange that require shareholder approval of the                                             

 

      Plan and material amendments be obtained). Should the Committee, in its discretion,        determine, having regard to the above-noted applicable laws, regulations, policies, rules,        notices and administrative practices or other relevant circumstances, that it is not feasible        or desirable to honour a Participant’s election to have all or a portion of his or her DSU        Eligible Retainer paid in the form of Deferred Share Units issued under the Plan, the        Committee may refuse a Participant’s election under the Plan, in which case such        amounts shall be paid in cash.   6.3   Reorganization of the Company         The existence of any outstanding Deferred Share Units shall not affect in any way the        right or power of the Company or its shareholders to make or authorize any adjustment,        recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its        business, or any amalgamation, combination, merger or consolidation involving the        Company or to create or issue any bonds, debentures, units or other securities of the        Company or the rights and conditions attaching thereto or to effect the dissolution or        liquidation of the Company or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or        business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar nature or        otherwise.   6.4   General Restrictions         Except as required by law or expressly contemplated herein, the rights of a Participant        under the Plan or in respect of any Deferred Share Units are not capable of being        assigned, transferred, alienated, sold, encumbered, pledged, mortgaged or charged.   6.5   Successors and Assigns         The Plan shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Company and in this        regard, a corporate successor to the Company can assume the obligations of the Company        hereunder (including, if applicable, substituting its shares for the Company Shares for        purposes of the Plan) upon notice to the Participants, provided such assumption has been        authorized by the Directors.   6.6   Designation of Beneficiary         Subject to the requirements of applicable laws, a Participant may designate in writing a        Person as a beneficiary to receive any benefits that are payable under the Plan upon the        death of such Participant. The Participant may, subject to applicable laws, alter or revise        such designation from time to time. The original designation or any change thereto shall        be in the form of Schedule “B” or in such other form and in such other manner as the        Committee, in its discretion, may from time to time determine.   6.7   No Right to Serve         (a)   Neither participation in the Plan nor any action taken under the Plan shall give or              be deemed to give any Participant a right to continued service to the Company or              any Affiliate, and such participation shall not interfere with the right of the                                             

 

            Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s service at any time or not              re-nominate the Participant as a Director.         (b)   Nothing in this Plan or the Participant’s opportunity to participate in this Plan              shall be construed to provide the Participant with any rights whatsoever to              participate or continue to participate in this Plan, or to compensation or damages              in lieu of continued participation or the right to participate in this Plan upon the              termination of the Participant as Director of the Company, for any reason              whatsoever.   6.8   No Shareholder Rights         Except as provided in Section 4.2, under no circumstances shall Deferred Share Units        credited to a Participant’s Account be considered Company Shares or other securities of        the Company, nor shall they entitle any Participant to exercise voting rights or any other        rights attaching to the ownership of Company Shares or other securities of the Company,        nor shall any Participant be considered the owner of Company Shares by virtue of the        award of Deferred Share Units, until and unless Company Shares have been issued or        transferred to the Participant upon redemption of his or her Deferred Share Units.   6.9   Deferred Share Units Non-Transferable          Deferred Share Units are non-transferable.   6.10  Unfunded and Unsecured Plan         Unless otherwise determined by the Directors, the Plan shall be unfunded and the        Company shall not secure its obligations under the Plan. To the extent any Participant or        the Participant’s Beneficiary holds any rights by virtue of a grant of Deferred Share Units        under the Plan, such rights (unless otherwise determined by the Directors) shall be no        greater than the rights of an unsecured creditor of the Company.   6.11  No Other Benefit         (a)   No amount will be paid to, or in respect of, a Participant under the Plan to              compensate for a downward fluctuation in the price of a Company Share, nor will              any other form of benefit be conferred upon, or in respect of, a Participant (or a              person with whom the Participant does not deal at arm’s length within the              meaning of the ITA), for such purpose.         (b)   The Company makes no representations or warranties to Participants with respect              to the Plan or the Deferred Share Units whatsoever. Participants are expressly              advised that the value of any Deferred Share Unit in the Plan will fluctuate as the              trading price of Company Shares fluctuates. Participants are further expressly              advised that the amount of dividends that may be paid in respect of Company              Shares, if any, will vary.                                              

 

      (c)   In seeking the benefits of participation in the Plan, a Participant agrees to              exclusively accept all risks associated with a decline in the market price of              Company Shares and all other risks associated with the holding of Deferred Share              Units.   6.12  Non-exclusivity of the Plan         The adoption of the Plan by the Company shall not be construed as creating any        limitations on the power or authority of the Directors to adopt such other or additional        incentive or other compensation arrangements of whatever nature as the Directors may        deem necessary or desirable, or preclude or limit the continuation of any other plan,        practice, or arrangement for the payment of compensation and other benefits to Directors        generally, or to any class or group of Directors, that the Company has lawfully put into        effect.   6.13  Governing Law         The Plan shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the        Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to        principles of conflict of laws.   6.14  Language         The parties hereunder have requested the present document and the related material to be        drafted in the English language. Les parties aux présentes ont fait la demande expresse        que ce document et ceux qui s’y rapportent soient rédigés en langue anglaise.   6.15  Severability         The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Plan shall not affect the        validity or enforceability of any other provision and any invalid or unenforceable        provision shall be severed from this Plan.   6.16  Term         Unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions contained herein, this Plan        shall remain in effect for a period of ten (10) years from the Effective Date, at which time        it shall terminate unless reconfirmed for a further ten (10) year term by resolution passed        by a majority (or such greater percentage (or with such number of votes as may be        excluded) as may be specified by the rules, regulations or policies of the Toronto Stock        Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange) of votes cast by all holders of Company        Shares who vote in respect of such reconfirmation at the annual general meeting of the        Company immediately preceding the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date.

I also        understand that Participant Information may be disclosed or transferred to another party during        the course of, or completion of, a change in ownership of, or the grant of a security interest in, all        or a part of the Company, provided that such party is bound by similar restrictions on its use of        Participant Information.

If    a beneficiary dies before the benefit is payable, his or her share will be allocated equally among any surviving         beneficiaries of the same type, unless you specify otherwise.    x    The person signing the beneficiary designation form should initial any corrections to this form.                    ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION                                                    Contingent Beneficiary: If the primary beneficiary or, where there is more than one primary beneficiary, all of the  primary beneficiaries die before the Participant does, then the contingent beneficiary(ies) would become the new primary  beneficiary(ies) automatically.    Irrevocable Beneficiary: If a beneficiary designation is irrevocable, the signature of the irrevocable beneficiary is  required for any changes, including a change of beneficiary.  With one exception, designations are revocable unless  specified irrevocable.  In Québec, a designation in favour of a spouse is irrevocable unless specified otherwise.    Per Stirpes: If you wish the descendants of a beneficiary to receive his or her portion of the benefit if the beneficiary  should die before the Participant, you can record your beneficiary designation as being the “beneficiaries per stirpes”.  If a  beneficiary per stirpes dies before the Participant and has no descendants, their share is divided equally among the  remaining beneficiaries.    Payment to Beneficiaries: Unless you specify otherwise, the Company will pay the death benefit (in a lump sum   installments) as follows:    1.  to any primary beneficiaries who are alive when a benefit is payable; or   2.  if no primary beneficiary is then alive, to any contingent beneficiaries who are then alive; or  3.  if no beneficiary is then alive to the Participant’s estate.    Trusts: If the beneficiary designated is the trustee of an inter vivos trust and if the Company receives proof satisfactory to  it that the trust is not in effect when any death benefit is payable, then the Company will pay the death benefit as if the  trust beneficiary had died before the Participant.  If the beneficiary designated is the trustee of a testamentary trust, it will  be deemed to be the trust which is created under a last will and testament and if, when the death benefit is payable, it is  found that the last will and testament contains no trust or is not admitted to probate or the Participant died intestate, then  the Company will pay the death benefit as if the trust beneficiary had died before the Participant.
