The Company covenants and agrees that, during the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the time that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, except (a) with the express prior written consent of the Purchaser (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (b) as expressly required or permitted by this Agreement, (c) as required by applicable Law, (d) to comply with or implement any COVID-19 Measures (provided that, in respect of any COVID-19 Measures, so long as the Company notifies the Purchaser reasonably promptly of such actions and considers in good faith any reasonable requests of the Purchaser with respect thereto), (e) as contemplated by any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization, or (f) as expressly set out in Section 4.1 of the Company Disclosure Letter, the Company shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to (i) conduct business in the Ordinary Course and in accordance with all applicable Laws in all material respects, and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and preserve, in the Ordinary Course, its and its Subsidiaries’ business organization, operations, assets, properties, Authorizations, Company Intellectual Property, goodwill and relationships with all Employees, the Significant Customers and Significant Suppliers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, landlords, creditors, lessors, lessees, suppliers, licensors, licensees, strategic or alliance partners and other Persons, in each case with whom the Company or any of its Subsidiaries have material business relations in the Ordinary Course.

not take any action, or refrain from taking any commercially reasonable action, or permit any action to be taken or not taken, in each case, which is inconsistent with this Agreement or which would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or otherwise impede the consummation of the Arrangement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The Purchaser shall promptly notify the Company in writing of any change, event, occurrence, effect, state of facts and/or circumstance that, individually or in the aggregate that is or would reasonably be expected to impair, impede or prevent either or both the Purchaser and/or the Parent from performing their obligations under this Agreement.

Each Party hereto shall, as promptly as possible, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, all consents and Authorizations, including the Regulatory Approvals, from all Governmental Entities that may be or become necessary for its execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. Each Party shall co-operate fully with the other Parties and their affiliates in promptly seeking to obtain all such consents or Authorizations, including the Regulatory Approvals, from such Governmental Entities.

The Purchaser shall be responsible for and shall pay all filing fees required by applicable Law to be paid to any Governmental Authority in order to obtain all consents and Authorizations, including the Regulatory Approvals and as it relates to the HSR Act and the Competition Act Approval.

Unless required to do so by Law, the Parties shall not submit any filings with any Governmental Authority prior to Closing, including the filing of a notification under Part III of the Investment Canada Act, unless: (i) the Purchaser and the Company mutually agree otherwise; or (ii) in the case of a notification under Part III of the Investment Canada Act, either (a) an Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced or otherwise publicly disclosed by any Person (other than the Purchaser, the Parent or any of their respective affiliates) or (b) the market price of the Shares exceeds US$32.00 per Share on NASDAQ for two consecutive trading days (or the Canadian dollar equivalent thereof on TSX based on the exchange rate published by the Bank of Canada on such second trading day), in which cases the Purchaser shall be entitled to file such notification.

The Parties shall cooperate and coordinate with one another in connection with obtaining the Regulatory Approvals, including by providing or submitting as promptly as practicable all submissions, documentation and information that are required or advisable in connection with obtaining the Regulatory Approvals and using their reasonable best efforts to ensure that such submissions, documentation and information do not contain a Misrepresentation.

If any objections are asserted by any Governmental Entity under any applicable Law with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or if any proceeding is instituted or threatened by or before any Governmental Entity challenging or which could lead to a challenge of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as not in compliance with Law or as not satisfying any applicable legal test under a Law necessary to obtain the Regulatory Approvals, the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to resolve or avoid such objection or proceeding so as to allow the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event no later than the Outside Date).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Parent will control the ultimate strategy for securing all Regulatory Approvals, including any filings, submissions and communications with or to any Governmental Entity in connection therewith, and taking into account in good faith any comments of, the Company or its Representatives relating to such strategy

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.4, the Purchaser’s reasonable best efforts shall not require the Purchaser to enter into any settlement, undertaking, consent decree, consent agreement, commitment, stipulation or other agreement or take any action or agree to take any action (including without limitation any divestitures), that would adversely affect any of the business, operations or assets of the Purchaser and its affiliates, or that would adversely affect the business, operations or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, other than, if required in order to obtain a Key Regulatory Approval, the entry into a settlement, undertaking, consent decree, consent agreement, commitment, stipulation or other agreement, in each case, that does not have a Burdensome Effect. The Company shall not enter into any agreement or understanding with any Governmental Entity with respect to any of the foregoing without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. “Burdensome Effect” has the meaning set forth in Section 4.4(7) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

From the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement, subject to applicable Law and any COVID Measures that may be in place, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and shall cause their respective directors, officers and Employees to, and shall direct its independent auditors, financing sources, advisers, consultants and agents to, upon reasonable prior notice during normal business hours: (a) give the Purchaser and its Representatives, consultants and independent contractors reasonable access (during normal business hours) to its and its Subsidiaries’ offices, premises, properties, assets, senior personnel, Contracts and books and records (including continuing access to the Data Room), and (b) furnish to the Purchaser and its Representatives, consultants, and independent contractors such financial and operating data and Company Data or other information with respect to the assets or business of the Company or its Subsidiaries as the Purchaser may reasonably request, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement or for integration planning purposes; provided that the Company’s compliance with any request under this Section 4.5(1) shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and shall be subject to any COVID-19 Measures then in effect.

This Section 4.5 shall not require the Company or its Subsidiaries to permit any access, or to disclose any information that is Excluded Information or that, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Company, after consultation with outside legal counsel, may reasonably be expected to cause any violation of any Law or cause any privilege (including attorney-client privilege) that the Company or its Subsidiaries would be entitled to assert to be undermined with respect to such information; provided that, the Parties hereto shall cooperate in seeking to find a way to allow disclosure of such information to the extent doing so could reasonably (in the good faith belief of the Company, after consultation with outside legal counsel) be managed through the use of customary “clean-room” or other arrangements reasonably acceptable, and not unduly burdensome, to the Company.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Non-Disclosure Agreement, Parent and Purchaser shall be permitted to disclose confidential information that is subject to the Non-Disclosure Agreement in connection with the arrangement of any Covered Financing, including to ratings agencies and prospective lenders and investors; provided that (a) such disclosure occurs in accordance with customary market practice for the dissemination of such information to such recipients (which may include, without limitation, customary “click through” confidentiality undertakings by prospective lenders and investors), (b) the Company has been afforded a reasonable opportunity to review any such information prior to its dissemination and (c) the recipient is subject to customary confidentiality obligations with respect to such information.

Each Party acknowledges that the Non-Disclosure Agreement continues to apply and, in the case of the Company, that any information provided under Section 4.5(1) above that is non-public in nature shall be subject to the terms of the Non-Disclosure Agreement; provided that to the extent any provision of the Non-Disclosure Agreement conflicts with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

Investigations made by or on behalf of the Purchaser, whether under this Section 4.5 or otherwise, will not waive, diminish the scope of, or otherwise affect any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement.

Subject to Section 4.6(2), the Company agrees that, upon request of the Purchaser, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to perform such reorganizations of their corporate structure, capital structure, business, operations and assets or such other transactions as the Purchaser may request in writing, acting reasonably (each a “Pre-Acquisition Reorganization”), (b) cooperate with the Purchaser and its advisers to determine the nature of the Pre-Acquisition Reorganizations that might be undertaken and the manner in which they would most effectively be undertaken, and (c) cooperate with the Purchaser and its advisers to seek to obtain any consents, approvals, waivers or similar authorizations which are reasonably requested by the Purchaser (based on the applicable terms of the Contract or Authorization) in connection with the Pre-Acquisition Reorganizations, if any.

The Company will not be obligated to participate in all or any portion of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization under Section 4.6(1) unless such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization:

does not require the approval of any of the Shareholders;

does not cause any Shareholders to recognize any income or gain for Tax purposes prior to the completion of the Arrangement;

does not require the Company or its Subsidiaries to take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in Taxes being imposed on, or any adverse Tax or other consequences to, the Company, its Subsidiaries or any Shareholders incrementally greater than the Taxes or other consequences to such party in connection with the completion of the Arrangement in the absence of action being taken pursuant to this Section 4.6;

does not require any consent, waiver, notice or approval, or give rise to (or accelerate) any right of termination under, or result in any breach by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any Material Contract or Material Authorization or any breach by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of their respective Constating Documents or applicable Law;

is not prejudicial to the Company or the Shareholders in any material respect;

does not reduce, or impact the form of, the consideration to be received by Shareholders and holders of Incentive Securities under the Plan of Arrangement;

does not result in a change of control, default, or acceleration of any of the Company’s existing credit facilities or outstanding debt;

does not unreasonably interfere in the operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time;

is not required to be completed unless and until (i) the Purchaser has irrevocably confirmed in writing that all of the conditions in favor of the Purchaser in Article 6 have been either satisfied or waived and that the Purchaser is prepared to promptly and without condition proceed with the completion of the Arrangement and (ii) the Company is reasonably satisfied that all of the conditions in favor of the Company in Article 6 have been satisfied or waived.

The Purchaser must provide written notice to the Company of any proposed Pre-Acquisition Reorganization at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Date. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company and the Purchaser shall work cooperatively and use their commercially reasonable efforts to prepare prior to the Effective Time all documentation necessary and do such other acts and things as are necessary to give effect to such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization, including any amendment to this Agreement or the Plan of Arrangement and shall seek to have any such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization be effective immediately prior to the Effective Time (but after the Purchaser has waived or confirmed that all of the conditions set out in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 have been satisfied).

If this Agreement is terminated, the Purchaser (a) shall forthwith reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with any proposed Pre-Acquisition Reorganization (including any rewinding thereof), and (b) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, penalties, interests, awards, judgements and Taxes (including the use of Tax attributes) suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with or as a result of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization (including any rewinding thereof), or in taking reasonable steps to reverse or unwind any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization.

The Purchaser hereby waives any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by the Company to the extent such breach is a result of an action taken (or omitted to be taken) by the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to a request by the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 4.6.

Notwithstanding Section 4.9(1), none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to: (i) pay any commitment, consent or other similar fee, incur any liability or provide or agree to provide any indemnity or other payment in connection with any such Covered Financing prior to the Effective Time; (ii) take any action or do anything that would reasonably be expected to: (A) contravene any applicable Law or its Constating Documents; (B) constitute a default, or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any right or obligation of such Person or to a loss of any benefit to which such Person is entitled under, or otherwise violate or contravene, in each case, any provision of any Material Contract; (C) impair or prevent the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 6 that operates for the benefit of the Company; or (D) interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) provide any Excluded Information or disclose any information that in the reasonable judgment of the Company would reasonably be expected to compromise any attorney-client or similar privilege or otherwise conflict with any confidentiality requirements

The Purchaser shall, promptly upon request by the Company and from time to time (and in any event promptly following termination of this Agreement), reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with any of the actions contemplated by this Section 4.9, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the cooperation of the Company and its Subsidiaries contemplated by this Section 4.9 or otherwise in connection with a Covered Financing, except to the extent resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of any such Person.

Subject to applicable law, the Company hereby consents to the customary and reasonable use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos solely in connection with (i) any Covered Financing; provided that such logos are used in a manner that is not intended to nor reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) a description of the Company, its business or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any Covered Financing).

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser and the Parent expressly acknowledge and agree that its obligations hereunder are not conditioned in any manner upon obtaining any Covered Financing or any other financing, whether such reasons are within or beyond the control of the Purchaser or the Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, if any financing referred to in this Section 4.9 is not obtained, the Purchaser will continue to be obligated to consummate the Arrangement, subject to and on the terms contemplated by this Agreement, subject to the applicable conditions set forth in Article 6; provided that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4.9, and none of the Parent, the Purchaser or any of their respective affiliates shall allege that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or has not been in compliance with this Section 4.9, unless a Covered Financing has not been obtained primarily as a result of a Willful Breach of its obligations under this Section 4.9.

The Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all necessary, proper or advisable actions to arrange and obtain one or more Covered Financings that generate net proceeds in an aggregate amount sufficient to enable the Purchaser to pay all amounts required to be paid in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement and to pay all related expenses payable by it in connection with such transactions (such amounts collectively, the “Required Amount”), by no later than the Effective

Without limiting the generality of Section 4.9(6), the Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions thereof until the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, subject to amendments, modifications, waivers, releases and substitutions expressly permitted by Section 4.9(6);

except and only to the extent proceeds of other Covered Financings sufficient to fund the Required Amount will be available at the Closing (on conditions that are no less favourable to the Parent taken as a whole, and that do not in any event impose any new or additional conditions to funding that are more onerous or extensive in any respect, than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter), satisfy (or obtain a waiver of), on a timely basis, all conditions in the Debt Commitment Letter (and any definitive documentation related thereto) that are within the Parent’s control at or prior to the Closing and comply with all of its obligations under the Debt Commitment Letter and any fee letter in respect thereof in a timely and diligent manner;

negotiate and enter into definitive agreements and documentation with respect to Covered Financings that comply with the terms of this Agreement and are sufficient to fund the Required Amount on or prior to the Closing;

if all the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than Section 6.3(3) or other conditions that, by their terms, are to be satisfied on the Effective Time, but are reasonably capable of being satisfied on the Effective Time) and all of the conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (other than the Closing) have been satisfied, consummate the Committed Debt Financing (or any other Covered Financing) at or prior to the Closing; and

enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter in a timely and diligent manner.

The Parent will, upon the Company’s reasonable request, keep the Company informed in reasonable detail with respect to the Parent’s efforts to arrange and obtain Covered Financings sufficient to fund the Required Amount as shall be reasonably necessary or advisable to allow the Company to monitor the progress thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent shall give the Company prompt notice: (i) of any actual or threatened breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to give rise to any breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination) by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Committed Debt Financing of which the Parent becomes aware, (ii) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any Person with respect to any actual or threatened breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Committed Debt Financing, (iii) of the occurrence of any change, event, occurrence, effect, state of facts or circumstances that the Parent believes in good faith would reasonably be expected to materially adversely impact the ability of the Parent to obtain Covered Financings sufficient to fund the Required Amount and (iv) if the Debt Commitment Letter will be terminated prior to its stated expiration for any reason. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within one (1) Business Day after the date the Company delivers to the Parent a written request, the Parent shall provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the immediately preceding sentence, provided that the Parent shall not be required to disclose or provide any such information, the disclosure of which, in its good faith judgement upon advice of outside counsel, is subject to attorney-client privilege. In the event that the Parent does not disclose such information that is subject to attorney-client privilege, the Parent shall provide prompt notice to the Company that it is withholding such information and the Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly communicate the applicable information to an extent that would not violate or waive privilege.

If any portion of the Committed Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions or from the applicable financing sources in the Debt Commitment Letter (including the “market flex” provisions contained in any fee letter in respect of the Committed Debt Financing), unless such portion is not reasonably required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement, the Parent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of such unavailability and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange and obtain, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event,

Except as expressly set forth in Section 4.9(1), the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives shall have any responsibility for the Committed Debt Financing prior to the Effective Time.

The Parties shall agree on the text of any press releases to be issued to announce (a) the execution of this Agreement, and (b) on the Effective Date, the completion of the Arrangement.

Except as required by applicable Law, neither Party shall issue any press release or make any other public statement or disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that, subject to Article 5, any Party that, upon the advice of outside legal counsel, is required to make disclosure by applicable Law (other than disclosures to Governmental Entities in connection with the Regulatory Approvals, which shall be addressed as contemplated by Section 4.4) shall use its best efforts to give the other Parties prior oral or written notice and a reasonable opportunity to review or comment on such disclosure (other than with respect to confidential information contained in such disclosure) and if such prior notice is not permitted by applicable Law, shall give such notice immediately following the making of such disclosure if legally permitted. The Party making such disclosure shall give reasonable consideration to any comments made by the other Parties or their counsel. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the foregoing shall prevent the Company or the Purchaser from making (a) internal announcements to Employees and having discussions with shareholders, financial analysts and other stakeholders, or (b) public announcements in the Ordinary Course that do not relate specifically to this Agreement or the Arrangement, in each case so long as such announcements and discussions are consistent in all material respects with the most recent press releases, public disclosures or public statements made by such Person. The Parties acknowledge that the Company will file this Agreement (with such redactions as may be mutually agreed upon between the Company and the Purchaser, acting reasonably), and a material change report relating thereto on SEDAR and ▇▇▇▇▇.

During the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties of the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event or state of facts of which it has knowledge which occurrence or failure would, or would be reasonably likely to:

cause any of the representations or warranties of such Party contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect at any time from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time that would cause any condition in Section 6.1 [Mutual Conditions Precedent], Section 6.2(1) [Representations and Warranties of the Company], Section 6.2(3) [Material Adverse Effect] and Section 6.3(1) [Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser and the Parent] not to be satisfied; or

result in the failure to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by such Party under this Agreement that would cause any condition in Section 6.1 [Mutual Conditions Precedent], Section 6.2(2) [Performance of Covenants by the Company], Section 6.3(2) [Performance of Covenants by the Purchaser] and Section 6.3(3) [Deposit of Consideration] not to be satisfied.

Notification provided under this Section 4.12 will not affect the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations of the Parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.

The Company may not elect to exercise its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(1)(c)(i) [Breach of Representations and Warranties or Covenants by the Purchaser and the Parent] and the Purchaser may not elect to exercise its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(1)(d)(i) [Breach of Representations and Warranties or Covenants by the Company], unless the Party seeking to terminate the Agreement (the “Terminating Party”) has delivered a written notice (“Termination Notice”) to the other Parties (the ”Breaching Party”) specifying in reasonable detail all breaches of covenants, representations and warranties or other matters which the Terminating Party asserts as the basis for termination. After delivering a Termination Notice, provided the Breaching Party is proceeding diligently to cure such matter and such matter is capable of being cured prior to the Outside Date, the Terminating Party may not exercise such termination right until the earlier of (a) the Outside Date, and (b) the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt of such Termination Notice by the Breaching Party, if such matter has not been cured by such date, provided that, for greater certainty, if any matter is not capable of being cured by the Outside Date the Terminating Party may immediately exercise the applicable termination right in accordance with the terms of Section 7.2(1)(c)(i) [Breach of Representations and Warranties or Covenants by the Purchaser and the Parent] or Section 7.2(1)(d)(i) [Breach of Representations and Warranties or Covenants by the Company], as applicable, without first providing a Termination Notice.

If the Terminating Party delivers a Termination Notice prior to the date of the Meeting, unless the Parties agree otherwise, the Company shall postpone or adjourn the Meeting to the earlier of (a) five (5) Business Days prior to the Outside Date and (b) the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt of such Termination Notice by the Breaching Party.

Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, in consultation with the Purchaser, purchase customary fully pre-paid and non-cancelable “tail” policies of directors’ and officers’ liability fiduciary liability, and employment practices liability insurance from an insurer(s) of nationally recognized standing providing protection no less favourable in the aggregate than the protection provided by such policies maintained by or for the benefit of the Company and its Subsidiaries which are in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time and providing protection in respect of claims and other matters arising from actual or alleged acts, omissions, facts or events which occurred on or prior to the Effective Time, and the Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to maintain such tail policies in full force and effect without any reduction in scope of coverage or limits (other than a reduction of limits due to payments by the insurer(s) under the policies) for six (6) years after the Effective Date; provided that the Purchaser shall not be required to pay any amounts in respect of such coverage prior to the Effective Time and provided further that the aggregate cost of such policies shall not exceed 350% of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ current annual aggregate premium for directors’ and officers’ liability, fiduciary liability, and employment practices liability insurance policies currently maintained by the Company or its Subsidiaries.

From and after the Effective Time, the Purchaser shall honour, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to honour, all rights to indemnification, exculpation and advancement existing as of immediately prior to the Effective Time in favour of the then present and former Employees, officers, directors and managers of the Company and its Subsidiaries to the fullest extent permitted by the Constating Documents or applicable Law or under indemnification agreements entered into in the Ordinary Course and acknowledges that such rights shall survive the completion of the Plan of Arrangement and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms for a period of not less than six (6) years after the Effective Date.

If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective successors or assigns (a) consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges or liquidates into, any other Person and is not a continuing or surviving Company or entity of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, amalgamation or liquidation, or (b) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, the Purchaser shall ensure that any such successor or assign (including, as applicable, any acquirer of substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries) assumes all of the obligations set forth in this Section 4.13.

Employees as of immediately prior to the Effective Time who continue their employment with Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries immediately following the Effective Time are referred to herein as the “Continuing Employees.” For a period of at least twelve (12) months following the Effective Time, or (if earlier) the termination of the Continuing Employee’s employment with such entities, the Purchaser will or will cause the Company to provide each Continuing Employee with (i) base salary or hourly wages, (ii) target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities (including commissions and target annual bonuses, and excluding any equity incentives or long-term cash incentives), and (iii) employee benefits (excluding retiree health and welfare benefits or defined benefit pension plans or any post-termination or post-employment health benefits) that are substantially comparable, considered in the aggregate, to those that such Continuing Employee was entitled to receive immediately prior to the Effective Time.

From and after the Effective Time, the Purchaser shall honor and perform, or cause the Company to honor and perform, all of the obligations of the Company and any of its subsidiaries under employment and other agreements with current or former Employees and Employee Plans to the extent such agreements and Employee Plans are specifically identified on Schedule 3.1(34) in accordance with their terms as in effect on the date hereof (with such modifications as may be made before the Effective Time as permitted by the terms hereof).

Without limiting the generality of Section 4.17(2), no later than thirty (30) days following the Effective Time, the Purchaser will make grants of restricted stock unit awards to employees of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company set forth on Section 4.17(3) of the Company Disclosure Letter who remain employed by Purchaser, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries through the grant date of such awards (the “Purchaser Equity Awards”). The number of shares subject to each Purchaser Equity Award shall be determined by dividing the dollar value set forth opposite the applicable employee’s name on Section 4.17(3) of the Company Disclosure Letter by the closing price (in regular trading) of Parent’s common stock on the grant date. Each such award shall vest in up to four annual installments following the grant date, subject to the grantee’s continuing to be Actively Employed through the applicable vesting date, and shall be granted pursuant to Parent’s equity incentive plan and standard form of employee restricted stock unit agreement.

The Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that the persons listed on Section 4.17(4) of the Company Disclosure Letter (the “Covered Persons”) shall be entitled to receive the bonus amount for their fiscal 2022 bonus set out opposite their name on Section 4.17(4) of the Company Disclosure Letter (which amount the Company hereby confirms is not greater than 150% of the applicable Covered Employee’s target bonus for fiscal 2022) (the “Covered Bonus”), provided that (subject to the final sentence of this Section 4.17(4)), a Covered Person’s right to payment of his or her Covered Bonus shall be contingent on the Covered Person’s remaining Actively Employed with the Parent, the Purchaser, Company or their respective Subsidiaries through the date such Covered Bonus is paid. The payment date of each Covered Bonus shall be determined by the Purchaser (or the Company if prior to the Closing) but in no event will be later than March 15, 2023. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser covenants and agrees that if a Covered Person’s employment with Parent, the Purchaser, the Company or their Subsidiaries is terminated by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates after the Closing without cause or by the Covered Person for Good Reason, then the Purchaser shall pay the Covered Bonus (to the extent not previously paid) to such Covered Person on or before the next payroll date following such Covered Person’s last day of employment with Parent, Purchaser, the Company or their Subsidiaries, subject to the Covered Person’s providing a release of claims to Purchaser on Purchaser’s standard form of release. “Good Reason” shall mean “good reason” or any similar concept that exists in an employment or other individual agreement between a Covered Person and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, if any, and shall not apply with respect to any Covered Person who is not subject to such agreement or whose agreement does not contain a definition of “good reason” or any similar concept.

The Purchaser further agrees that, from and after the Effective Time, the Purchaser will, or will cause the Company to, use commercially reasonable efforts to grant all Continuing Employees credit for any service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as well as service with any predecessor employer of the Company or any such Subsidiary, to the extent service with the predecessor employer is recognized by the Company or such Subsidiary) earned prior to the Effective Time for purposes of the Continuing Employee’s eligibility, vesting and entitlement to benefits (excluding benefit accrual) under any benefit plan that may be established or maintained by the Purchaser, the Company or any of their Affiliates on or after the Effective Time (the “New Plans”) (including, without limitation, the determination of the level or amount

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be permitted prior to the Closing to take the actions set forth on Section 4.17(6) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

Nothing in this Agreement shall require Parent, Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to continue to employ any particular Employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries following the Closing, create any third party beneficiary rights in any Employee, any beneficiary or dependents thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be provided to any Employee, or be construed to prohibit Parent, Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries from amending or terminating any Employee Plan.

From the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 7 and the Effective Time, except as expressly provided in this Article 5, the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, through any of its Representatives or affiliates or otherwise, and shall not permit any such Person to:

solicit, assist, initiate, knowingly encourage or otherwise facilitate (including by way of furnishing or providing copies of, access to, or disclosure of, any confidential information, properties, facilities, books or records of the Company or any Subsidiary or entering into any form of agreement, arrangement or understanding) any inquiry, proposal or offer (whether public or otherwise) that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal;

enter into, engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than the Purchaser and its affiliates) regarding any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal;

make a Change in Recommendation;

The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and terminate, and cause to be terminated, any solicitation, encouragement, discussion, negotiations or other activities commenced prior to the date of this Agreement with any Person (other than the Purchaser and its affiliates) with respect to any inquiry, proposal or offer that (x) if made after the date of this Agreement would have constituted an Acquisition Proposal; or (y) may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and, in connection with such termination shall:

immediately discontinue access to, and disclosure of, all information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries to any such Person, including any data room (whether physical or virtual) and any confidential information, properties, facilities and books and records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and

request from any such Person, and exercise all rights it has to require (i) the return or destruction of all copies of any confidential information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries provided to any such Person other than the Purchaser, its affiliates and their respective Representatives since April 1, 2022 in respect of any inquiry, proposal or offer that, if made after the date of this Agreement, would have constituted or would have been reasonably expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and (ii) the destruction of all material to the extent including or incorporating such confidential information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, to the extent that such information has not previously been returned or destroyed (subject to the terms of the applicable confidentiality or similar agreement, including the rights of retention that such Persons may have thereunder).

If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives, receives or otherwise becomes aware of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or any request for copies of, access to, or disclosure of, confidential information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to an Acquisition Proposal, including information, access or disclosure relating to the properties, facilities, books and records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company shall:

promptly notify the Purchaser, and in any event within 24 hours in writing, of such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request, including (i) a description of its material terms and conditions, or if such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request is in writing, a copy thereof, and (ii) the identity of all Persons making the Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request; and

keep the Purchaser reasonably informed, on a prompt basis, of the status and terms of any such offers or proposals (including any amendments thereto) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations.

Notwithstanding Section 5.1, or any other agreement between the Parties or between the Company and any other Person, including without limitation the Non-Disclosure Agreement, if at any time prior to obtaining the Required Shareholder Approval, the Company receives a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal, the Company may (a) contact the Person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives for the purpose of clarifying the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, and (b) engage in or participate in discussions or negotiations with such Person regarding such Acquisition Proposal, and may provide copies of, access to or disclosure of confidential information, properties, facilities, or books and records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, if and only if, in the case of clause (b):

the Board first determines (based upon, amongst other things, the recommendation of the Special Committee) in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisers and its outside legal counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal;

such Person making the Acquisition Proposal was not restricted from making such Acquisition Proposal pursuant to an existing confidentiality or similar agreement, restriction or covenant with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

the Company has been, and continues to be, in compliance with its obligations under Article 5 in all material respects;

the Company enters into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, and any such copies, access or disclosure provided to such Person shall have already been (or promptly be) provided to the Purchaser (by posting such information to the Data Room or otherwise); and

prior to engaging in or participating in discussions or negotiations with such Person regarding such Acquisition Proposal (excluding, for certainty, negotiations regarding an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement that do not relate to the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal) or providing any such copies, access or disclosure, the Company promptly provides the Purchaser with a true, complete and final executed copy of the Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement referred to in Section 5.3(1)(d).

If the Company receives an Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal prior to obtaining the Required Shareholder Approval, the Board may (based upon, amongst other things, the recommendation of the Special Committee), subject to compliance with Article 7 and Section 8.2, enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal or make a Change in Recommendation in respect of such Superior Proposal, if and only if:

the Company has been, and continues to be, in compliance with its obligations under Article 5 in all material respects;

The Company shall provide the Purchaser and its outside legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review the form and content of any such press release and shall give reasonable consideration to any comments provided by the Purchaser and its outside legal counsel.

responding through a directors’ circular or otherwise as required by Law to an Acquisition Proposal, provided that the Company shall provide the Purchaser and its outside legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review the form and content of such circular or other disclosure and shall give reasonable consideration to any comments provided by the Purchaser and its outside legal counsel; or

In no case shall the Company, the Purchaser or any other Person be required to recognize a Person exercising Dissent Rights unless such Person (a) is the registered holder of those Shares in respect of which such rights are sought to be exercised as of the record date of the Meeting and as of the deadline for exercising Dissent Rights and (b) has strictly complied with the procedures for exercising Dissent Rights and has not withdrawn such dissent prior to the Effective Time.

The Purchaser shall on or immediately prior to the Closing provide, or cause to be provided to, the Depositary sufficient funds to satisfy the aggregate Consideration payable to the Shareholders pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement, with the amount per Share in respect of which Dissent Rights have been exercised being deemed to be the Consideration for this purpose, net of any applicable withholdings for the benefit of the Shareholders, which funds shall be held by the Depositary in escrow as agent and nominee for such Shareholders.

Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 4.1, each DRS Advice or certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Shares shall be deemed after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the cash payment which the holder is entitled to receive in lieu of such DRS Advice or certificate as contemplated in this Section 4.1, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.3. Any such DRS Advice or certificate formerly representing Shares not duly surrendered on or before the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Effective Date shall cease to represent a claim by or interest of any former holder of Shares of any kind or nature against or in the Company or the Purchaser. On such date, all cash payments to which such former holder was entitled shall be deemed to have been surrendered to the Purchaser, and shall be paid over by the Depositary to the Purchaser or as directed by the Purchaser.

Any payment made by the Depositary (or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable) in accordance with this Plan of Arrangement that has not been deposited or has been returned to the Depositary (or the Company) or that otherwise remains unclaimed, in each case, on or before the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Effective Time, and any right or claim to payment hereunder that remains outstanding on the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Effective Time shall cease to represent a right or claim of any kind or nature and the right of the holder to receive the applicable consideration for the Shares and the Incentive Securities in accordance with this Plan of Arrangement shall terminate and be deemed to be surrendered and forfeited to the Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, for no consideration.

No holder of Shares (including Trust Shares) or Incentive Securities shall be entitled (following the completion of the Plan of Arrangement) to receive any consideration with respect to such Shares (including Trust Shares) or Incentive Securities other than the cash payment, if any, which such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 2.3 and this Section 4.1 and, for greater certainty, no such holder shall be entitled to receive any interest, dividends, premium or other
