The Investor acknowledges that the ability to transfer the Exchange Shares is limited by, among other things, applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws. The Exchangeable Shares are not listed or posted for trading on any securities exchange, and, therefore, the Exchange Shares cannot be traded through the facilities of the TSX or Nasdaq. In addition, absent an exemption from the prospectus requirement under applicable Canadian securities laws and the registration requirements under applicable U.S. federal securities laws, the Exchange Shares cannot be traded since the Exchangeable Shares are not freely transferable in Canada or the United States. In addition, certain of such exemptions under Canadian law require the Investor to have held the Exchange Shares for four months and a day. The Investor agrees that compliance with the Securities Act and applicable Canadian securities laws in respect of any sale or transfer of Exchange Shares is the exclusive responsibility of the Investor.

(e) Non-Contravention. The Exchange and the other transactions contemplated hereby to be performed by the Investor will not (i) contravene any law, rule or regulation binding on the Investor or any investment guideline or restriction applicable to the Investor (provided that the Investor does not make any representations regarding the application of applicable securities laws); or (ii) constitute a breach or violation or result in a default under the organizational documents of the Investor or any material loan agreement, mortgage, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Investor is a party or by which it is bound.

(f) Jurisdiction of Residence. The Investor is a resident of the jurisdiction set forth on Exhibit A attached to the Exchange Agreement.

(g) Compliance with Certain Laws; No Consents. The Investor will be responsible for compliance with all applicable laws and regulations in effect in any jurisdiction in which the Investor acquires the Exchange Shares and will obtain any consent, approval or permission required for such purchases, acquisitions or sales under the laws and regulations of any jurisdiction to which the Investor is subject or in which the Investor acquires the Exchange Shares, provided that the Investor makes no representations regarding the application of or compliance with applicable securities laws.

(k) No Investment, Tax or Other Advice. The Investor confirms that it is not relying on any statement (written or oral), representation or warranty made by, or on behalf of, the Company or any of its affiliates as investment, tax or other advice or as a recommendation to participate in the Exchange and receive the Exchange Shares in exchange for the Promissory Note. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates is acting or has acted as an advisor to the Investor in deciding whether to participate in the Exchange and to exchange the Promissory Note for the Exchange Shares.

(l) Investment Decision Matters.

(p) Mutual Negotiation. The Investor acknowledges that the terms of the Exchange have been mutually negotiated between the Investor and the Company. The Investor was given a meaningful opportunity to negotiate the terms of the Exchange.

Tax Matters

Backup Withholding Tax

Under U.S. federal income tax law, an Investor who exchanges the Promissory Note for the Exchange Shares generally must provide such Investor’s correct taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) on IRS Form W-9 (attached hereto) or otherwise establish a basis for exemption from backup withholding. A TIN is generally an individual holder’s social security number or an Investor’s employer identification number. If the correct TIN is not provided, the Investor may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS. In addition, certain payments made to holders may be subject to U.S. backup withholding tax (currently set at 24% of the payment). If an Investor is required to provide a TIN but does not have the TIN, the Investor should consult its tax advisor regarding how to obtain a TIN. Certain holders are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. Non-U.S. Holders generally may establish their status as exempt recipients from backup withholding by submitting a properly completed applicable IRS Form W-8 (available from the Company or the IRS at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇), signed, under penalties of perjury, attesting to such Investor’s exempt foreign status. U.S. backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding how to complete the appropriate forms and to determine whether they are exempt from backup withholding or other withholding taxes.

B-1

Portfolio Interest Exemption (for Investors That Are Not U.S. Persons for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes)

Under U.S. federal income tax law, an Investor that exchanges the Promissory Note for the Exchange Shares and is otherwise not eligible to provide an IRS Form W-9 must claim an exemption from U.S. withholding tax on payments or deliveries attributable to accrued and unpaid interest. Any Investor that claims such an exemption under the so-called “portfolio interest exemption” is hereby deemed to represent and certify (along with the providing the applicable IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E). However, if the Investor is an intermediary, a foreign partnership or other flow-through entity, then the following adjustments will be made:
