Section 2.2. Interest

The principal outstanding on each Debenture from time to time shall bear interest from and including the Closing Date to the date of repayment in full at 10% per annum calculated and payable semi-annually, in arrears (the “Interest Rate”), and payable in cash or, at the option of the Lender with 30 days prior written notice to the Company and subject to the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange, that number of Conversion Shares determined by dividing (a) the amount of the applicable interest payment by (b) the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX for the 10 trading days preceding the applicable interest payment date less the maximum discount permitted by the TSX, on June 30th and December 31st in each year during which any Obligations are outstanding, the first of such payments being due December 31, 2004.

After the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as it continues, all Obligations shall bear interest at a rate that is 5% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to the Debentures (the “Default Interest Rate”).

This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall the Corporation be required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Debentures at a rate which could subject Lenders to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury or similar laws (the “Maximum Legal Rate”).

All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Debentures, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debentures until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debentures does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debentures for so long as the Debentures are outstanding.

Section 2.3. Repayments

The Corporation shall pay to each Lender the principal amount, any accrued and unpaid interest (in cash or Conversion Shares at the option of the Lender in accordance with Section 2.2) and any other monies owing in respect of the Debentures in full on the Maturity Date or on such earlier date as the Obligations shall become due and payable in full hereunder. Each payment of principal amount of the Debentures hereunder (whether at maturity, by way of prepayment of otherwise), and each payment of interest on the Debentures shall be made and applied to the Lenders pro rata (in cash or Conversion Shares, as the case may be) based on the ratio that each Lender’s Debentures bears to the total number of Debentures issued to the Lenders hereunder.

Section 2.4. Prepayments

The Corporation may, upon at least fifteen (15) days prior notice to the Lenders, prepay the Debentures (a “Voluntary Prepayment”), without premium or penalty, in whole or in part at any time (any such date, the “Prepayment Date”); provided that upon any such prepayment all accrued and unpaid interest as of the date immediately preceding the Prepayment Date shall be paid in cash.

Section 2.5. Acceleration Events/Mandatory Prepayments

(a) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Wistron Intercreditor Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of the Debentures, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable on a first priority basis prior to any repayment of the Existing Debentures, but pari passu with the CRAT Debenture, if then outstanding, and the Fund Debenture, if then outstanding, and subject to the rights of Wistron under the Wistron Intercreditor Agreement (an “Acceleration Event”), in whole or in part, to the extent of fifty percent (50%) of the proceeds received by the Corporation in any one or more financing transactions (a “Financing”) involving the sale and issuance by the Corporation of equity or debt securities of the Corporation (other than proceeds from the exercise of share options, stock purchase warrants or other convertible securities of the Corporation outstanding at or prior to the Closing or any Warrant). Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Wistron Intercreditor Agreement, any remaining proceeds of any such Financing allocated to the repayment of Funded Indebtedness of the Corporation shall first be applied to repayment of the Debentures prior to any repayment of the Existing Debentures or any other Funded Indebtedness of the Corporation, except for the CRAT Debenture, if still outstanding, and the Fund Debenture, if then outstanding.

(b) The Corporation shall, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Wistron Intercreditor Agreement, promptly upon the consummation of a sale or disposition of assets in bulk (other than as part of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or a liquidation of the Corporation or any Subsidiary) by the Corporation or any Subsidiary in which the Corporation or Subsidiary, as applicable, shall receive aggregate proceeds in excess of $5,000,000, prepay the Debentures, on a first priority basis prior to any repayment of the Existing Debentures (a “Mandatory Prepayment”), to the extent of all such proceeds.

Section 2.6. Payment in US Dollars.

All payments made in cash by the Corporation shall be made in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds.

Section 2.7. Taxes

Any and all payments or reimbursements made under the Debentures shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction for, any and all taxes, levies, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (all such taxes, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding such taxes imposed on net income, “Tax Liabilities”), excluding, however, (i) any taxes imposed on income or any franchise tax imposed in lieu of a net income tax; (ii) any taxes imposed on any Lender (or any Person or entity with an interest in Lender), and (iii) any taxes for which any Lender (or any Person or entity with an interest in such Lender) would be entitled to claim a credit against its income tax liability in the country in which the Lender is organized or otherwise subject to taxation. If the Corporation shall be required by law to deduct any such amounts from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to a Lender then, the Corporation shall pay such amounts to the appropriate Governmental Body and provide such Lender with satisfactory documentary evidence of such payment within ten (10) days after such payment and the sum payable hereunder shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.

The Lenders understand that the Debentures, Warrants, Conversion Shares and Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and conversion of the Debentures as contemplated hereby have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”) or qualified for distribution in any province or territory of Canada and are issued pursuant to a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and the registration and prospectus requirements of the Securities Act (Ontario), the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Lenders’ representations as expressed herein. Each Lender is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Section 1.1 of Rule 45-501 of the Ontario Securities Commission and each Lender, which is resident in the United States, is also an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. If any Lender is resident in or otherwise subject to the securities laws of a jurisdiction other than

the Province of Ontario or the United States, the issuance by the Corporation, and the acquisition by such Lender, of Debentures, Warrants, Conversion Shares and Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and conversion of the principal and interest outstanding on the Debentures as contemplated by this Agreement is in full compliance with all applicable securities laws, statutes, regulations, policy statements and orders in such jurisdiction and no authorization, consent of, or filing with or notice to, any person is required in connection therewith.

(f) Legends. The Lenders understand that the Debentures, Warrants, Conversion Shares and Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and conversion of the principal and interest outstanding on the Debentures (each, for purposes of this paragraph, a security) may bear the following legend and any other legends that may be required by applicable securities law and stock exchange rules:

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAS BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE ▇▇▇▇▇ RAYSMAN ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP OR OTHER COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION) IN A FORM REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION AND ITS COUNSEL THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933

(g) No Public Market. The Lenders understand that no public market now exists for any of the Debentures or Warrants issued by the Corporation and that the Corporation has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Corporation’s securities.

Section 5.3. Survival of Representations and Warranties

The statements made in any certificate hereafter delivered by the Corporation or any of the Subsidiaries to the Lenders shall be deemed to constitute representations and warranties made by the party delivering the same. The Corporation covenants that the representations and warranties made by it in this Article 5, shall be true and correct on each day that this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in favor of each Lender remain in force and effect, with the same effect as if such representations and warranties had been made and given on and as of such day, notwithstanding any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of each Lender or its counsel and notwithstanding any foreclosure or enforcement pursuant to any Security Documents; except that if any such representation and warranty is specifically given as of the date hereof or in respect of a particular date or particular period of time and relates only to such date or period of time, then such representation and warranty shall continue to be given as at such date or for such period of time.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Phoenix to (A) hold the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement entered into on the date hereof by the US Subsidiary and Phoenix) and the Secured Property (as defined herein) for its own benefit and the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, and (B) be its attorney in its name and on its behalf to exercise such rights or powers granted to Phoenix or the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to the extent and on the terms specifically provided herein and therein, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, Phoenix shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the holders of 51% of the aggregate principal amount of Debentures outstanding, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that Phoenix shall not be required to take any action which exposes Phoenix to liability in such capacity, which could result in Phoenix incurring any costs and expenses or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any action to impose additional obligations on the Lenders, or to amend Section 8.6 hereof or any other provision hereof or in any of the Security Documents which would affect the pro rata repayment, as among the

Lenders, of the Obligations or the pro rata disbursement, as among the Lenders, of moneys or other proceeds received in the enforcement of the security interests created hereby, shall require the consent of each Lender whose interests are adversely affected by such action.

(b) The Corporation shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other document or other advice, statement or instruction provided to it by Phoenix pursuant to this Agreement, and the Corporation shall generally be entitled to deal with Phoenix with respect to matters under this Agreement which Phoenix is authorized to deal with without any obligation whatsoever to satisfy itself as to the authority of Phoenix to act on behalf of the Lenders and without any liability whatsoever to the Lenders for relying upon any certificate, notice or other document or other advice, statement or instruction provided to it by Phoenix, notwithstanding any lack of authority of Phoenix to provide the same.
