No waiver of any condition or other provision in whole or in part, will constitute a waiver of any other condition or provision (whether or not similar) nor will such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

Nature and Survival

4.2 All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement on the part of each of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and PMI will terminate on the first to occur of (i) the Effective Date, (ii) the Termination Date, and (iii) such earlier date upon which this Agreement is terminated; provided however, that, subject to §9.4 and §9.7, neither ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or PMI will be released or relieved from any liability arising from the breach by it of any of its covenants, representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement that arose prior to the time of such termination.

The PMI Board will review any ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Counter Proposal in good faith in order to determine, in its discretion in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, whether the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Counter Proposal would, upon acceptance by PMI, be at least equivalent to the PMI Superior Proposal.

(c)	Each Party also acknowledges and agrees that each successive material modification of any Acquisition Proposal for PMI will constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for PMI for the purposes of the requirement under clause (v) of §5.11(a) and will initiate an additional five Business Day notice period.

(d)

The PMI Board shall promptly reaffirm its recommendation of the Arrangement by press release after: (i) the PMI Board determines any Acquisition Proposal for PMI that has been made public is not or may not reasonably become a PMI Superior Proposal; or (ii) the PMI Board determines that a proposed amendment to the terms of the Arrangement would result in an Acquisition Proposal for PMI which has been publicly announced or made not being a PMI Superior Proposal, and the Parties have so amended the terms of the Arrangement. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such press release, recognizing that whether or not such comments are appropriate will be determined by PMI, acting reasonably.

The ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Board shall promptly reaffirm its recommendation of the Arrangement by press release after: (i) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Board determines any Acquisition Proposal for ▇▇▇▇▇▇ that has been made public is not or may not reasonably become a ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Superior Proposal; or (ii) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Board determines that a proposed amendment to the terms of the Arrangement would result in an Acquisition Proposal for ▇▇▇▇▇▇ which has been publicly announced or made not being a ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Superior Proposal, and the Parties have so amended the terms of the Arrangement. PMI and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such press release, recognizing that whether or not such comments are appropriate will be determined by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, acting reasonably.

- 43 -

since the date of this Agreement, there will not have been any change, effect, event, occurrence, development or state of facts that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (excluding any change, effect, event occurrence or state of facts that is specifically referred to in the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Disclosure Letter);

Notice and Cure Provisions

7.4 Each of the Parties will give prompt notice to the other of the occurrence, or failure to occur, at any time from the date hereof until the Effective Date, of any event or state of facts that would likely:

(a)	cause any of the representations or warranties of such Person contained herein to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect as of the date hereof or at the Effective Date; or

(b)	result in the failure of such Person to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement before the Effective Date.

▇▇▇▇▇▇ or PMI may elect to not complete the Arrangement and the Transaction contemplated hereby pursuant to the conditions precedent contained in §7.1, §7.2 and §7.3, as the case may be, or exercise any termination right arising therefrom, only if forthwith and in any event before the Effective Date, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or PMI, as the case may be, has delivered a written notice to the other specifying in reasonable detail all breaches of covenants, representations and warranties or other matters which ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or PMI, as the case may be, is asserting as the basis for the non-fulfillment of the applicable condition precedent or the exercise of the termination right, as the case may be. If any such notice is delivered, provided that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or PMI, as the case may be, is proceeding diligently to cure such matter, if such matter is susceptible to being cured, the other may not terminate this Agreement until the expiration of a period of 15 days from such notice. If such notice has been given before the making of the application for the Final Order, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Meeting, or the PMI Meeting, such application or meeting will be postponed until the expiry of such period. For greater certainty, in the event that such matter is cured within the time period referred to herein, this Agreement may not be terminated as a result of such matter.

(l)

by PMI, if, subject to §7.4, a failure to perform, in all material respects, any covenant or agreement on the part of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ set forth in this Agreement that would cause the conditions set forth in §7.1 or §7.3 not to be satisfied, and such conditions are incapable of being satisfied by the Termination Date; provided that PMI is not then in breach of this Agreement so as to cause any of the conditions set forth in §7.1 or §7.2 not to be satisfied and except that PMI may terminate this Agreement in ▇▇▇▇▇▇ breaches §5.12 in any respect.

(a)	the provisions of §9.3 through §9.9 inclusive (Expenses, Termination Fees payable by PMI and Termination Fees payable by ▇▇▇▇▇▇), and this §9.2 will remain in full force and effect and will survive any such termination;

- 47 -

(b)

neither PMI nor ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will be released or relieved from any liability arising from their breach of any of their representations, warranties, covenants, arising prior to the time of termination, or agreements as set forth in the Transaction Documents save and except as provided therein except (i) in the case that a Termination Fee shall be paid, the amount of any liability shall be limited to the Termination Fee, (ii) if the Termination Fee is not payable then all such liabilities shall be limited to the out of pocket expenses actually incurred by the non-breaching party in connection with this Agreement.

Termination Fees Payable by PMI

9.4 If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to

(a)

§9.1(e) in circumstances where a bona fide Acquisition Proposal, or the intention to make a bona fide Acquisition Proposal with respect to PMI, has been publicly announced before the PMI Meeting, and not withdrawn and the PMI Shareholder Approval is subsequently not obtained, and within 12 months of the date of such termination:

(i)	the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal or an affiliate of such Person:

(A)	directly or indirectly acquires the assets of PMI that: (1) constitute more than 50% of the consolidated assets of PMI; (2) generate more than 50% of the consolidated revenue of PMI; or (3) generate more than 50% of the consolidated operating income of PMI; or

(B)	directly or indirectly acquires more than 50% of the PMI Shares or voting rights attached to all voting securities of PMI; or

(ii)	PMI enters into a definitive agreement in respect of, or the PMI Board approves or recommends, a transaction contemplated by (a) above with the Person or such affiliate that made such Acquisition Proposal and that transaction is consummated at any time thereafter;

(b) §9.1(g); or

- 48 -

PMI will pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ an amount equal to the Termination Fee in cash or immediately available funds and such Termination Fee shall be paid (i) in the case of termination under §9.4(a) within three (3) Business Days following the date of consummation of a transaction contemplated by that section, (ii) in the case of termination under §9.4(b) concurrent with or prior to entering into an agreement with respect to a ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Superior Proposal, or (iii) in the case of termination under §9.4(c) within three (3) Business Days following termination by ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

PMI irrevocably waives any right it may have to raise as a defense that any such liquidated damages are excessive or punitive. For greater certainty, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that the payment of any amount pursuant to §9.4 or §9.5, as the case may be, is the sole monetary remedy available to it and that it will not have any alternative right or remedy against PMI for damages, whether for consequential damages or otherwise.

Termination Fees Payable by ▇▇▇▇▇▇

9.7 If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to

(a)

§9.1(f) in circumstances where a bona fide Acquisition Proposal, or the intention to make a bona fide Acquisition Proposal with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇, has been publicly announced before the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Meeting and not withdrawn, and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shareholder Approval is subsequently not obtained within 12 months of the date of such termination:

- 49 -

For greater certainty, PMI agrees that the payment of any amount pursuant to §9.7 or §9.8, as the case may be, is the sole monetary remedy available to it and that it will not have any alternative right or remedy against ▇▇▇▇▇▇ for damages, whether for consequential damages or otherwise.

ARRANGEMENT

3.1 On the Effective Date, subject to the provisions of Article 5 hereof, the following will occur and will be deemed to occur in the order and at the times set out below without any further authorization, act or formality:

(a) each issued PMI Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time held by a PMI Shareholder in respect of which Dissent Rights have been validly exercised will be deemed to have been transferred without any further act or formality to PMI for cancellation, free and clear of any liens, claims and encumbrances, and:

(b) immediately thereafter, each issued and outstanding PMI Share (other than any PMI Share in respect of which the PMI Shareholder has validly exercised his, her or its Dissent Right) will be transferred to, and acquired by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, without any act or formality on the part of the holder of such PMI Share or ▇▇▇▇▇▇, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, in exchange for such number of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio, provided that the aggregate number of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shares payable to any PMI Shareholder, if calculated to include a fraction of a ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share, will be rounded down to the nearest whole ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share, with no consideration being paid for the fractional share, and the name of each such PMI Shareholder will be removed from the register of holders of PMI Shares and added to the register of holders of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shares, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will be recorded as the registered holder of such PMI Shares so exchanged and will be deemed to be the legal and beneficial owner thereof;

Such Replacement Warrant shall provide for an exercise price per ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to: (x) the exercise price per PMI Share otherwise purchasable pursuant to such PMI Warrant; divided by (y) the Exchange Ratio. Except as provided in this Section 3.1(d), the term, exercisability and all other terms and conditions of the PMI Warrant in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall govern the Replacement Warrant for which the PMI Warrant is so exchanged.

4.2 After the Effective Date, certificates formerly representing PMI Shares which are held by a PMI Shareholder will, except for PMI Shares held by Dissenters, represent only the right to receive the consideration issuable and/or payable therefor pursuant to §3.1 in accordance with the terms of this Plan of Arrangement.

4.5 PMI Shareholders that did not submit an effective Transmittal Letter prior to the Effective Date may take delivery of the consideration issuable or payable to them by delivering the certificates representing PMI Shares or PMI Shares formerly held by them to the Depositary at the offices indicated in the Transmittal Letter.

4.6 Any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Date represented outstanding PMI Shares and which has not been surrendered, with all other instruments required by this Article 4, on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, will cease to represent any claim against or interest of any kind or nature in PMI, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the Depositary.

4.7 In the event any certificate, which immediately before the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding PMI Shares that was exchanged pursuant to §3.1, is lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the consideration to which such Person is entitled in respect of the PMI Shares represented by such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate pursuant to §3.1 deliverable in accordance with such Person’s Transmittal Letter.
