Trust Indenture Legislation.

In this Indenture, the term “Trust Indenture Legislation” means the provisions, if any, of any statute of Canada or a province thereof, and of regulations under any such statute, relating to trust indentures and to the rights, duties, and obligations of trustees under trust indentures and of Persons issuing debt obligations under trust indentures, to the extent that such provisions are at the time in force and applicable to this Indenture.

If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies, or conflicts with a mandatory requirement of Trust Indenture Legislation, such mandatory requirement shall prevail. The Issuer, the Trustee, and each Holder shall at all times, in relation to this Indenture and any action to be taken hereunder, observe and comply with and be entitled to the benefits of Trust Indenture Legislation, as applicable.

Conversion of Currency

If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due under this Indenture to the Holder from another currency to Canadian dollars, the Issuer and each Guarantor agree, and each Holder by holding a Note will be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Issuer, each Guarantor and they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase Canadian dollars with such other currency in Toronto, Ontario on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

The Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations to any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “judgment currency”) other than Canadian dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in such judgment currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Canadian dollars with the judgment currency. If the amount of the Canadian dollars so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or the Trustee in the judgment currency (as determined in the manner set forth in Section 1.14(a)), as the case may be, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Holder and the Trustee, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the Canadian dollars so purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, will pay the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor such excess;

Accounting Terms; Changes in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

If there occurs a material change in GAAP after the Issue Date, and such change would require disclosure under GAAP in the financial statements of the Issuer and would cause an amount required to be determined for the purposes of any of the financial calculations or financial terms under this Indenture (each a “Financial Term”) to be materially different than the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such change, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such change (an “Accounting Change”). Such notice (an “Accounting Change Notice”) shall describe the nature of the Accounting Change, its effect on the Issuer’s current and immediately prior year’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP and state whether the Issuer desires to revise the method of calculating the applicable Financial Term (including the revision of any of the defined terms used in the determination of such Financial Term) in order that amounts determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change and the revised method of calculating such Financial Term will approximate the amount that would be determined without giving effect to such Accounting Change and without giving effect to the revised method of calculating such Financial Term. The Accounting Change Notice shall be delivered to the Trustee within 90 days of the end of the fiscal quarter in which the Accounting Change is implemented or, if such Accounting Change is implemented in the fourth fiscal quarter or in respect of an entire fiscal year, within 120 days of the end of such period. Promptly after receipt from the Issuer of an Accounting Change Notice the Trustee shall deliver to each Holder a copy of such notice.

If the Issuer so indicates that it wishes to revise the method of calculating the Financial Term, the Issuer shall in good faith provide to the Trustee the revised method of calculating the Financial Term within 90 days of the Accounting Change Notice and such revised method shall take effect from the date of the Accounting Change Notice. For certainty, if no notice of a desire to revise the method of calculating the Financial Term in respect of an Accounting Change is given by the Issuer within the applicable time period described above, the method of calculating the Financial Term shall not be revised in response to such Accounting Change and all amounts to be determined pursuant to the Financial Term shall be determined after giving effect to such Accounting Change.

Additional Amounts

All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer under or with respect to the Notes or by or on behalf of any Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee, will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Relevant Taxing Authority, unless required by law or the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Issuer or a Guarantor is obligated to withhold or deduct any amount on account of taxes imposed by any Relevant Taxing Authority from any payment made with respect to the Notes, the Issuer or such Guarantor will:

make such withholding or deduction;

remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with the applicable law;

subject to the limitations below, pay to each Holder, as additional interest, such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such taxes had not been withheld or deducted;

furnish to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, within 60 days after the date payment of any taxes are due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of an official receipt of the Relevant Taxing Authority for all amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to applicable law, or if such receipts are not reasonably obtainable, other evidence of payment by the Issuer or such Guarantor of those taxes; and

at least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable (or, if the obligation to pay any Additional Amounts does not arise more than 20 days prior to the applicable payment date, reasonably promptly after such obligation arises), deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Additional Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustee may request to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

Notwithstanding Section 2.5(a), neither the Issuer nor a Guarantor will pay Additional Amounts with respect to a payment made to any Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (an “Excluded Holder”):

with which the Issuer, such Guarantor or any transferee to whom a Note is assigned or otherwise transferred, does not deal at arm’s length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time of making such payment;

that is a “specified non-resident shareholder” of the Issuer or such Guarantor or a non-resident person who does not deal at arm’s length with a specified shareholder of the Issuer or such Guarantor, both for the purposes of subsection 18(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada);

which is subject to such taxes by reason of the Holder or the beneficial owner being a resident, domicile or national of, or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some present or former connection with the Relevant Taxing Authority otherwise than by the mere acquisition, holding, disposition or enforcement of the Notes or the receipt of payments thereunder;

for or on account of any taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to complete, execute and deliver to the Issuer or a Guarantor, as the case may be, any form or document, to the extent applicable to such Holder or beneficial owner and such Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to comply with, that may be required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of administration of such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered to the Issuer or such Guarantor in order to enable the Issuer or such Guarantor to make payments on the Notes or pursuant to any Guarantee, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding for taxes, or with deduction or withholding of a lesser amount, which form or document shall be delivered within 60 days of a written request therefor by the Issuer or such Guarantor;

for or on account of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, wealth or net worth, goods and services, harmonized sales, transfer, capital gains, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

for or on account of any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding from payments under or with respect to the Notes (other than taxes payable pursuant to Regulation 803 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or any similar successor provision);

where the payment could have been made without deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the Note for payment within 30 days after the date on which such payment or such Note became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later;

if the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to the extent that such payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settler with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settler, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof;

that is imposed under FATCA; or

any combination of (i) through (ix).

Any reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, Premium, if any, interest, purchase price, redemption price or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note, will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligation to make payments of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights thereunder.

The Issuer and each Guarantor will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (other than an Excluded Holder) and upon written request reimburse each such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note for the amount of (i) any taxes so levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes, and (ii) any taxes levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority and paid by such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note with respect to any reimbursement under (i) above, but excluding any such taxes with respect to which such Holder or beneficial owner of a Note is an Excluded Holder or any income or profits taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Authority.

Form of Notes

The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form set out in Appendix A hereto, together with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture. Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

Notes may be typed, engraved, printed, lithographed or reproduced in a different form, or partly in one form and partly in another, as the Issuer may determine. The execution of any such Notes by the Issuer and the authentication by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.7 of any such Notes will be conclusive evidence that such Notes are Notes authorized by this Indenture.

Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes

All Notes shall be signed (either manually or by electronic or facsimile signature) by any two authorized directors or officers of the Issuer, holding office at the time of signing. An electronic or facsimile signature upon a Note shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the signature of the individual whose signature it purports to be. Notwithstanding that any individual whose signature, either manual or in facsimile or other electronic means, appears on a Note as a director or officer may no longer hold such office at the date of the Note or at the date of the authentication and delivery thereof, such Note shall be valid and binding upon the Issuer and the Holder thereof shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

No Notes will be entitled to any right or benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless such Notes have been authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee substantially in the form provided for herein. Such authentication upon any Notes will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Notes have been duly authenticated, issued and delivered and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits hereof.

Subject to the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee shall from time to time authenticate one or more Notes (including Global Notes) for original issue on the issue date for such Notes or otherwise to permit transfers in accordance with Section 3.6 upon and in accordance with an Issuer Order (an “Authentication Order”), without the Trustee receiving any consideration therefor. Each such Authentication Order shall specify the principal amount of such Notes to be authenticated and the date on which such Notes are to be authenticated. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount specified in the Authentication Orders provided in respect of original issues of Notes except as provided in Section 2.14. Except as provided in Section 5.10, there is no limit on the amount of Notes that may be issued hereunder.

The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes will not be construed as a representation or warranty of the Trustee as to the validity of this Indenture or of any Notes or their issuance (except the due authentication thereof by the Trustee) or as to the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under this Indenture or any Notes and the Trustee will be in no respect liable or answerable for the use made of the proceeds of such Notes. The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes issued under this Indenture will constitute a representation and warranty by the Trustee that such Notes have been duly authenticated by and on behalf of the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture.

Appointment of Trustee and Depositary

The Trustee will be the trustee for the Notes, subject to Article 10.

The Issuer initially appoints CDS to act as Depository with respect to the Notes.

Registrar and Paying Agent

The Issuer shall maintain for the Notes an office or agency where such Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where such Notes may be surrendered for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of such Notes and of their transfer and exchange.

The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents for the Notes in such other locations as it shall determine. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Registrar or Paying Agent which is not a party to this Indenture. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar for the Notes.

The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee at its corporate office in Calgary, Alberta to act as the Registrar, transfer agent, authentication agent and Paying Agent with respect to the Notes and appoints Computershare Trust Company N.A., in Golden, Colorado as a co-transfer agent.

Each Global Note authenticated in accordance with this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depository designated for such Global Note or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depository or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Note shall constitute a single Note for all purposes of this Indenture. Beneficial interests in a Global Note will not be shown on the register or the records maintained by the Depository but will be represented through book entry accounts of Participants on behalf of the Beneficial Holders of such Global Note in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository. None of the Issuer or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspects of the records relating to or payments made by any Depository on account of the beneficial interest in any Global Notes or for maintaining, reviewing or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests therein. Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, Beneficial Holders of Global Notes shall not be entitled to have Notes registered in their names, shall not receive or be entitled to receive Definitive Notes and shall not be considered owners or holders thereof under this Indenture. Nothing herein shall prevent the Beneficial Holders from voting such Global Notes using duly executed proxies.

Every Note authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of a Global Note, or in exchange for or in lieu of a Global Note or any portion thereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, unless such Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository for such Global Notes or a nominee thereof.

Global Notes

the Trustee may deal with such Depository for all purposes as the sole holder of the Notes and as the authorized representative of the Beneficial Holders of such Notes;

the rights of the Beneficial Holders of such Notes shall be exercised only through such Depository and the rights of Beneficial Holders shall be limited to those established by applicable law and agreements between the Depository and the Participants and between such Participants and Beneficial Holders, and must be exercised through a Participant in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository;

whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders evidencing a specified percentage of the outstanding Notes, the Depository shall be deemed to be counted in that percentage to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Beneficial Holders or Participants;

such Depository will make book-entry transfers among the direct Participants of such Depository and will receive and transmit distributions of principal, Premium and interest on the Notes to such direct Participants for subsequent payment to the Beneficial Holders thereof;

the direct Participants of such Depository shall have no rights under this Indenture or under or with respect to any of the Notes held on their behalf by such Depository, and such Depository may be treated by the Trustee and its agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the Notes represented by such Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever; and

whenever a notice or other communication is required to be provided to Holders, the Trustee shall provide all such notices and communications to the Depository for subsequent delivery of such notices and communications to the Beneficial Holders in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation and the procedures of the Depository.

Concerning Interest

All Notes issued hereunder, whether originally or upon exchange or in substitution for previously issued Notes (including for certainty Notes issued under Sections 2.13 and 2.14), shall accrue and bear interest (i) from and including their respective issue date, or (ii) from and including the last Interest Payment Date therefor to which interest shall have been paid or made available for payment on such outstanding Notes, whichever shall be the later, in all cases, to and excluding the next Interest Payment Date therefor.

Subject to accrual of any interest on unpaid interest from time to time, interest on a Note will cease to accrue from the Maturity of such Note (including, for certainty, if such Note was called for redemption, the Redemption Date); unless upon due presentation and surrender of such Note for payment on or after the Maturity thereof, such payment is improperly withheld or refused.

If the date for payment of any amount of principal, Premium or interest in respect of a Note is not a Business Day at the place of payment, then payment thereof will be made on the next Business Day and the Holder of such Note will not be entitled to any further interest on such principal, or to any interest on such interest, Premium or other amount so payable, in respect of the period from the date for payment to such next Business Day.

The Holder of any Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest, if any, payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Note subsequent to such Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, except if and to the extent the Issuer shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, in which case such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Holder of such Note as at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be not less than two Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of all affected Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date.

Wherever in this Indenture or any Note there is mention, in any context, of the payment of interest, such mention is deemed to include the payment of interest on amounts in default to the extent that, in such context, such interest is, was or would be payable pursuant to this Indenture or the Note, and express mention of interest on amounts in default in any of the provisions of this Indenture will not be construed as excluding such interest in those provisions of this Indenture where such express mention is not made.

Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture or the terms of any Note, interest on the Notes shall be payable in equal semi-annual amounts; provided that for any Interest Period that is shorter than a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period and will accrue from day to day. For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), whenever interest is calculated under a Note on the basis of a year which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as an annual rate by multiplying such rate of interest by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such calendar year, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the deemed year.

Payments of Amounts Due on Maturity

Subject to Section 2.16(b), the following provisions shall apply to all Notes:

in the case of fully registered Notes, the Issuer shall establish and maintain with the Paying Agent a Maturity Account for the Notes. On or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for the Notes, the Issuer shall deposit in the applicable Maturity Account by wire transfer or certified cheque an amount sufficient to pay all amounts payable in respect of the outstanding Notes (less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Paying Agent will pay to each Holder of such Notes entitled to receive payment, the principal amount of, and Premium (if any) on, such Notes, upon surrender of such Notes to the Paying Agent or at any branch of the Trustee designated for such purpose from time to time by the Issuer and the Trustee. The deposit or making available of such amounts into the applicable Maturity Account will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the deposit or making available of funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld as aforesaid) and such Notes will thereafter not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture to such extent and such Holder will have no other right than to receive out of the money so deposited or made available the amount to which it is entitled. Failure to make a deposit or make funds available as required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(i) will constitute Default in payment on the Notes in respect of which the deposit or making available of funds was required to have been made; and

in the case of any Notes issued and outstanding in the form of or represented by Global Notes, on or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day before the Stated Maturity date for such Notes, the Issuer shall deliver to the Depository by electronic funds transfer an amount sufficient to pay the amount payable in respect of such Global Notes (less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom). The Issuer shall pay to the Depository the principal amount of, and Premium (if any) on, such Global Notes, against receipt of the relevant Global Notes. The delivery of such electronic funds to the Depository will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer for the Notes to which the electronic funds relates to the extent of the amount deposited or made available (plus the amount of any Taxes

Notwithstanding Section 2.16(a), all payments in excess of $25 million (or such other amount as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to disburse funds pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(i) unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable on the applicable date of Maturity. The Paying Agent shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

Legends on Notes

Unless otherwise provided in the Notes, Notes will not be registered under any United States federal or state securities laws, and any Notes issued and sold in the United States or to or for the account of U.S. persons (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) will be issued and sold only to Persons who are QIBs within the meaning of, and in reliance on, Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act, as well as all Notes issued in exchange for or in substitution of the foregoing securities, and shall bear, unless otherwise directed by the Issuer, a legend substantially in the following form (the “144A U.S. Legend”):

The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the public under Applicable Securities Legislation. The Trustee acknowledges and understands that the Notes, and each Note issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, will bear a legend in substantially the following form (the “Canadian Private Placement Legend”) until the legend is no longer required under Applicable Securities Legislation:

Each Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, subject to such modification as required by the applicable Depository (the “Global Note Legend”):

Prior to the issuance of Notes, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, concerning which Notes are to be certificated and are to bear the legend or legends described in this Section 2.17.

Payment of Interest

As interest becomes due on each fully registered Note (except on redemption thereof, when interest may at the option of the Issuer be paid upon surrender of such Note), the Issuer, either directly or through the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, shall send or forward by prepaid ordinary mail, electronic transfer of funds or such other means as may be agreed to by the Trustee, payment of such interest including any Additional Amounts (less any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom) to the order of the Holder of such Note at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date and addressed to the Holder at the Holder’s last address appearing on the register (or in the case of joint Holders, to such address of one of the joint Holders), unless such Holder otherwise directs. If payment is made by cheque, such cheque shall be forwarded at least two days prior to each Interest Payment Date and if payment is made by other means (such as electronic transfer of funds; provided that the Trustee must receive confirmation of receipt of funds prior to being able to wire funds to Holders), such payment shall be made in a manner whereby the Holder receives credit for such payment on the Interest Payment Date. The mailing of such cheque or the making of such payment by other means shall, to the extent of the sum represented thereby, plus the amount of any taxes deducted or withheld as aforesaid, satisfy and discharge all liability for interest including any Additional Amounts on such Note to such extent, unless in the case of payment by cheque, such cheque is not paid at par on presentation. In the event of non-receipt of any cheque for or other payment of interest by the Person to whom it is so sent as aforesaid, the Issuer shall issue to such Person a replacement cheque or other payment for a like amount upon being furnished with such evidence of non-receipt as it shall reasonably require and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuer is prevented by circumstances beyond its control (including, without limitation, any interruption in mail service) from making payment of any interest due on any Note in the manner provided above, the Issuer may make payment of such interest or make such interest available for payment in any other manner acceptable to the Trustee with the same effect as though payment had been made in the manner provided above. If payment is made through the Trustee, by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related

So long as the Notes or any portion thereof are issued in the form of or represented by a Global Note, then all payments of interest on such Global Note shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at least one Business Day prior to the related Interest Payment Date by electronic funds transfer made payable to the Depository or its nominee for subsequent payment to Beneficial Holders of the applicable interests in that Global Note, unless the Issuer and the Depository otherwise agree.

Notwithstanding Sections 2.18(a) and 2.18(b), all payments in excess of $25 million (or such other amount as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association or any successor thereto) shall be made by the use of the LVTS. Neither the Trustee nor Paying Agent, as applicable, shall have any obligation to disburse funds in respect of any Note pursuant to Section 2.18(a) unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable with respect to such Interest Payment Date for such Note. The Trustee or Paying Agent, as applicable, shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

the Issuer has determined, in its sole discretion, or is required by law, to terminate the book-entry only registration system in respect of such Global Notes and has communicated such determination or requirement to the Trustee in writing, or the book-entry system ceases to exist; or

the Trustee has determined that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to Notes issued as Global Notes; provided that Beneficial Holders representing, in the aggregate, not less than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes advise the Depository in writing, through the Participants, that the continuation of the book-entry only registration system for the Notes is no longer in their best interests; or

Global Notes may be transferred (A) if such transfer is required by applicable law, as determined by the Issuer and Counsel, or (B) by a Depository to a nominee of such Depository, or by a nominee of a Depository to such Depository, or to another nominee of such Depository, or by a Depository or its nominee to a successor Depository or its nominee.

Upon the termination of the book-entry only registration system on the occurrence of one of the conditions specified in Section 3.2(b)(i) or upon the transfer of a Global Note to a Person other than a Depository or a nominee thereof in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(i)(A), the Trustee shall notify all Beneficial Holders, through the Depository, of the availability of Definitive Notes. Upon surrender by the Depository of the Global Notes and receipt of new registration instructions from the Depository, the Trustee shall deliver the Definitive Notes to the Beneficial Holders thereof in accordance with the new registration instructions and thereafter, the registration and transfer of such Notes will be governed by Section 3.1 and the remaining provisions of this Article 3.

It is expressly acknowledged that transfer of beneficial ownership in any Note issuable in the form of or represented by a Global Note will be effected only (i) with respect to the interests of participants in the Depository (“Participants”), through records maintained by the Depository or its nominee for the Global Note, and (ii) with respect to interests of Persons other than Participants, through records maintained by Participants. Beneficial Holders who are not Participants but who desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of or other interest in Notes represented by a Global Note may do so only through a Participant.

If the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes obligated to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in the laws, treaties or regulations of any Relevant Taxing Authority, or a change in any official position regarding the application, interpretation or administration thereof (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction) or assessing practice with respect thereto, the enactment or adoption of which change is publicly announced on or after the date of this Indenture and such Additional Amounts cannot (as certified in an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee) be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, then the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the affected Notes, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 10 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice (such notice to be provided not more than 90 days before the next date on which the Issuer or any Guarantor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts, if a payment on the Notes were due on such date), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date). Notice of the Issuer’s intent to redeem the affected Notes shall not be effective until such time as it delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts because of an amendment to or change in law, treaty or regulation or other position as described in this paragraph.

Mandatory Redemption; Open Market Purchases

Places of Payment

Partial Redemption

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption as follows:

if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which such Notes are listed; or

if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, or based on a method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate unless otherwise required by applicable law or depository requirements,

If Notes are to be redeemed in part only, the Redemption Notice that relates to such Notes will state the portion of the principal amount of such Notes that is to be redeemed. In the event that one or more of such Notes becomes subject to redemption in part only, upon surrender of any such Notes for payment of the Redemption Price, together with interest accrued to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without charge to the Holder thereof or upon the Holder’s order one or more new Notes for the unredeemed part of the principal amount of the Notes so surrendered or, with respect to Global Notes, the Trustee shall make notations on the Global Notes of the principal amount thereof so redeemed. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Note” or “Notes” as used in this Article 4 shall be deemed to mean or include any part of the principal amount of any Note which in accordance with the foregoing provisions has become subject to redemption.

Notice of Redemption

the distinguishing letters and numbers of the Notes which are to be redeemed (as are registered in the name of such Holder);

if such Notes are selected by terminal digit or other similar system, such particulars as may be sufficient to identify the Notes so selected;

in the case of Global Notes, that the redemption will take place in such manner as may be agreed upon by the Depository, the Trustee and the Issuer; and

in all cases, the principal amounts of such Notes or, if any such Note is to be redeemed in part only, the principal amount of such part.

Notes Due on Redemption Dates

Deposit of Redemption Monies

Upon Notes being called for redemption, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or any Paying Agent to the order of the Trustee, on or before 11:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date specified in the Redemption Notice, such sums of money as may be sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes so called for redemption, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to but excluding the Redemption Date and including any Additional Amounts, less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld therefrom. The Issuer shall also deposit with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay any charges or expenses which may be incurred by the Trustee in connection with such redemption. Every such deposit shall be irrevocable. From the sums so deposited, the Trustee shall pay or cause to be paid, to the Holders of such Notes so called for redemption, upon surrender of such Notes, the principal, Premium (if any) and interest (if any) to which they are respectively entitled on redemption.

Payment of funds to the Trustee upon redemption of Notes shall be made by electronic transfer or certified cheque or pursuant to such other arrangements for the provision of funds as may be agreed between the Issuer and the Trustee in order to effect such payment hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) all payments in excess of $25 million (or such other amount as determined from time to time by the Canadian Payments Association) shall be made by the use of the LVTS; and (ii) in the event that payment must be made to the Depository, the Issuer shall remit payment to the Trustee by LVTS. The Trustee shall have no obligation to disburse funds pursuant to this Section 4.8 unless it has received written confirmation satisfactory to it that the funds have been deposited with it in sufficient amount to pay in full all amounts due and payable on the applicable Redemption Date. The Trustee shall, if it accepts any funds received by it in the form of uncertified cheques, be entitled to delay the time for release of such funds until such uncertified cheques shall be determined to have cleared the financial institution upon which the same are drawn.

Failure to Surrender Notes Called for Redemption

Cancellation of Notes Redeemed

Purchase of Notes for Cancellation

The Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, purchase or otherwise acquire Notes, whether pursuant to a tender offer, open market purchase, negotiated transactions or otherwise, at any price, in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation; provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of this Indenture. All Notes so purchased may, at the option of the Issuer, be delivered to the Trustee and cancelled and no Notes shall be issued in substitution therefor.

If, upon an invitation for tenders, more Notes are tendered at the same lowest price than the Issuer is prepared to accept, the Notes to be purchased by the Issuer shall be selected by the Trustee on a pro rata basis or in such other manner as the Issuer directs in writing and as consented to by the exchange, if any, on which Notes are then listed which the Trustee considers appropriate, from the Notes tendered by each tendering Holder thereof who tendered at such lowest price. For this purpose the Trustee may make, and from time to time amend, regulations with respect to the manner in which Notes may be so selected, and regulations so made shall be valid and binding upon all Holders thereof, notwithstanding the fact that as a result thereof one or more of such Notes become subject to purchase in part only. The Holder of a Note of which a part only is purchased, upon surrender of such Note for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such Holder, one or more new Notes for the unpurchased part so surrendered, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such new Note or Notes upon receipt of the Note so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Note, the Depository shall make notations on the applicable Global Note of the principal amount thereof so purchased.

Payment of Principal, Premium, and Interest

The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of, Premium, if any, and interest on the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Principal, Premium and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the Trustee holds, as of 10:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on the Business Day prior to the relevant payment date (or otherwise as specified in this Indenture in respect of such payment) Canadian dollars in immediately available funds sufficient to pay all principal, Premium and interest then due and the Trustee is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and Premium, if any, at the rate of interest applicable to the Notes, and it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue instalments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful.

Maintenance of Office or Agency

The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer and Guarantors in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Issuer.

Provision of Reports and Financial Information

The Issuer will provide the Trustee, and the Trustee will deliver to all the Holders, the following information (collectively, the “Financial Reports”):

(A) within 90 days of the end of each fiscal year, annual audited financial statements for such fiscal year (along with customary comparative results) and (B) within 45 days of the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, unaudited financial statements for the interim period as at, and for the period ending on, the end of such fiscal quarter (along with comparative results for the corresponding interim period in the prior year), in each case, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” with respect to the periods presented and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer’s certified independent accountants; and

within 10 days after the occurrence of each event constituting a “material change” (as defined in the Securities Act (Alberta)) that would have been required to be reported (pursuant to applicable rules and regulations in effect on the Issue Date) in a report under the Securities Act (Alberta) if the Issuer had been a “reporting issuer” under the Securities Act (Alberta), a report containing substantially all of the information that would have been required to be contained (pursuant to the Securities Act (Alberta) and applicable rules and regulations thereunder) in such report,

If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by Section 5.3(a) will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, or in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries excluding such Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

If and for so long as any Notes remain outstanding and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the U.S. Securities Act, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act (for so long as such information is required in order to permit resales of the Notes pursuant to Rule 144A).

Unless the Financial Reports are available on SEDAR or any successor system thereto, the Issuer will also maintain a website to which the Beneficial Holders are given free access and on which, not later than the date by which the Financial Reports are required to be provided to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.3(a), such Financial Reports are made available. Making such Financial Reports so available shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of 5.3(a) that such Financial Reports be provided to the Trustee and delivered to the Holders.

Unless the Issuer is a “reporting issuer” (or its equivalent) required to file information with one or more securities regulators in Canada, no later than five Business Days after the date the annual and quarterly Financial Reports have been furnished pursuant to Section 5.3(a)(i), the Issuer shall also hold a live quarterly conference call with the opportunity for participants to ask questions of management. No fewer than three Business Days prior to the date such conference call is to be held, the Issuer shall issue a press release (which release shall be immediately filed on SEDAR or any successor system thereto or, if the applicable Canadian securities regulators do not permit such filing, immediately provided to the Trustee and the Holders) announcing such quarterly conference call, which press release shall contain the time and the date of such conference call and direct the recipients thereof to contact an individual at the Issuer (for whom contact information shall be provided in such notice) to obtain information on how to access such quarterly conference call.

The Trustee will have no responsibility to determine whether the filing or posting of such financial statements and reports has occurred; delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants under the indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely on Officer’s Certificates).

Compliance Certificate.

The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether each has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that, to his or her knowledge, each entity has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that, to his or her knowledge, no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of, Premium, if any, or interest on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

The Issuer shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

pay dividends or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Equity Interests to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Shares in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Equity Interests);

any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired (including after acquired property);

any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing of an agreement referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), or (x) of this Section 5.9(b); provided, however, that such amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings, taken as a whole, are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, not materially more restrictive than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements referred to in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 5.9(b) on the Issue Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was amalgamated or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable;

Limitations in Incurrence of Indebtedness

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); provided that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur additional Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), in each case, if, after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, (i) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default will have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a consequence of incurring the Indebtedness or entering into the transactions relating to such incurrence.

guarantees by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; provided that in the event such Indebtedness that is being guaranteed is Subordinated Indebtedness, then the related guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantees, as the case may be;

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 5.10:

in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 5.10(a), the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness and may divide and classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described therein (except that Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement on or prior to the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred under clause (b)(i) of Section 5.10(b)), and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(xviii) of Section 5.10(b) (provided that at the time of reclassification it meets the criteria in such category or categories);

guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could have incurred such Indebtedness;

the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and

Indebtedness of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed to have been incurred by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under this Section 5.10, the Issuer shall be in Default of this covenant; provided that any Indebtedness of such Person that is redeemed, defeased, retired or otherwise repaid at the time of or immediately upon consummation of the transaction by which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (or amalgamates, merges or consolidates with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) will be deemed to not be Indebtedness for the purposes of this Section 5.10.

For the purposes of determining compliance with any Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Canadian dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Canadian dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Canadian dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

Limitation on Asset Sales

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Sale; and

at least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; for the purposes of this Section 5.11(a)(ii) only, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

the amount (without duplication) of any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed or forgiven by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary against further liability;

the amount of any securities, notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days after such Asset Sale converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received);

the Fair Market Value of (1) any assets (other than securities) received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be used by it in a Permitted Business, (2) Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the acquisition of such Person by the Issuer or (3) a combination of (1) and (2); and

any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of the Issuer’s Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this Section 5.11.

Notwithstanding Section 5.11(a), the 75% limitation referred to in Section 5.11(a)(ii) shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with this Section 5.11 on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:

repay, redeem or otherwise retire (A) obligations under the Credit Agreement, (B) Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, and/or (C) Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that is secured by a Lien (in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) and, if the obligations repaid are in respect of revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto;

repay, redeem or otherwise retire obligations under other Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary (in each case other than any Disqualified Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness, and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); provided that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce obligations under the Notes as provided under Section 4.2, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.11(f) for a Net Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; or

(A) make any capital expenditure or otherwise invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in the purchase of assets (other than securities and excluding working capital or current assets for the avoidance of doubt) to be used by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity Interests held by a Person other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B).

Pending the final application of any Net Available Proceeds pursuant to this Section 5.11, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary holding such Net Available Proceeds may apply such Net Available Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

On the 366th day after an Asset Sale (or, at the Issuer’s option, an earlier date or any later date contemplated by Section 5.11(d)), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $100 million, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to purchase or redeem (a “Net Proceeds Offer”) from all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase or redeem such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes, and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Net Proceeds Offer applies that may be purchased or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Within five Business Days after the Issuer is obligated to make an Net Proceeds Offer as described in Section 5.11(f)(i), the Issuer will send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders, accompanied by such information regarding the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an informed decision with respect to such Net Proceeds Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

The Net Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Net Proceeds Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period (the “Net Proceeds Purchase Date”), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this covenant (the “Net Proceeds Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Net Proceeds Offer.

If the Net Proceeds Purchase Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer.

On or before the Net Proceeds Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer, or if less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this covenant and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Net Proceeds Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder and the Issuer will mail or deliver to each tendering holder and/or lender of Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided that each such new Note will be in a minimum denomination in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on the Net Proceeds Purchase Date.

To the extent that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall select the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions described under Section 5.14 and/or Article 9 and not by the provisions of this Asset Sale covenant.

Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.11:

any Holder may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.11; and

the failure of any such Holder to accept or decline any such offer of prepayment shall be deemed to be an election by such Holder to decline such prepayment.

The Issuer will comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation, and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any Applicable Securities Legislation or applicable laws and regulations conflict with this Section 5.11, the Issuer shall comply with the Applicable Securities Legislation and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 5.11 by virtue of such compliance.

Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $25 million, unless:

the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could reasonably be expected to have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm’s length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate;

with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of $75 million, an Officer of the Issuer has determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i); and

with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of $100 million, a resolution has been adopted by a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction.

The restrictions in Section 5.12(a) shall not apply to:

transactions exclusively between or among (A) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or (B) Restricted Subsidiaries;

director, trustee, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including pursuant to any employment agreement or any retirement, health, stock option or other benefit plan), payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees of the Issuer and indemnification arrangements, in each case, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Issuer’s Board of Directors or senior management;

any Permitted Investments;

any Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with Section 5.8;

any agreement in effect on the Issue Date or as thereafter amended or replaced in any manner that, taken as a whole, is not, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, more disadvantageous to the Holders or the Issuer in any material respect than such agreement as it was in effect on the Issue Date;

any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) which would constitute an Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

(A) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is Qualified Equity Interests or the proceeds therefrom or (B) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith;

Guarantees by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the performance obligations of Unrestricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (excluding guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money);

transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from a Canadian or U.S. nationally recognized accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of 5.12(a)(i); and

any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Financing.

Limitation on Liens

in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks pari passu with the Notes or a Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such Obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and

in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or a Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation,

Offer to Purchase Notes upon Change of Control

Subject to Section 5.14(h), upon the occurrence of any Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as described under Section 4.2, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer purchase all or any portion (in minimum denominations equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described in Section 5.14(b) (the “Change of Control Offer”) for a cash price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment Date”).

No later than 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice:

describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event;

offering to purchase, pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in such notice, which shall be a Business Day not earlier than 30 days nor, unless such Change of Control Offer is being made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event as contemplated by Section 5.14(h), later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, and for the Change of Control Purchase Price, all Notes properly tendered by such Holder pursuant to such Change of Control Offer; and

describing the procedures, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Indenture, that Holders must follow to accept the Change of Control Offer, to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

On the Business Day immediately preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in minimum denominations equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Purchase Price for such Notes, with such payment to be made through the facilities of the Depository for all Global Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes so tendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a in minimum denomination in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date.

A Change of Control Offer will be required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or for such longer period as is required by law. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event and a Holder will not have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase any Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer if (i) a third party makes an offer to purchase the Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in substantial compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 5.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, or (ii) a Redemption Notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.2 unless and until there is a Default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.14, a Change of Control Offer by the Issuer or a third party may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

The Issuer will comply with Applicable Securities Legislation and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of Applicable Securities Legislation or other applicable laws and regulations conflict with the requirements of this Section 5.14, the Issuer shall comply with the Applicable Securities Legislation and such other applicable laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 5.14 by virtue of such compliance.

The provisions in this Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make a Change of Control Offer may be waived, modified or terminated with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a Redemption Price equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Purchase Price, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

Corporate Existence

Business Activities

Additional Guarantees

If any of Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor incurs or guarantees any Triggering Indebtedness, then the Issuer shall:

cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 days a supplemental indenture in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary; and

deliver to the Trustee one or more Opinions of Counsel (which may contain customary exceptions) reasonably acceptable to the Trustee that such Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary.

The Issuer may also elect to cause any other Restricted Subsidiary to issue a Guarantee and become a Guarantor.

Designation of Subsidiaries as Restricted or Unrestricted

The Board of Directors of the Issuer may, subject to Section 5.20(b), designate any Subsidiary (including any newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through amalgamation, merger or consolidation or Investment therein) of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under this Indenture (a “Designation”); provided that:

no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation (unless such Default would be wholly cured by such Designation);

the Issuer would be permitted to make, at the time of such Designation, (A) a Permitted Investment or (B) an Investment pursuant to Section 5.8, in either case, in an amount (the “Designation Amount”) equal to the Fair Market Value of the Issuer’s proportionate interest in such Subsidiary on such date;

on the date such Subsidiary is Designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary is not party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of the agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding, taken as a whole, are not materially less favourable to the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiary than those that would be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer; and

such Subsidiary has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries unless such guarantee is released concurrent with such Designation.

For purposes of any Designation, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of “Investment.” Such Designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (a “Redesignation”) only if:
