Tax Withholdings

The Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable to any Petroamerica Shareholder and, for greater certainty, from any amount payable to a Petroamerica Shareholder who has validly exercised, and not withdrawn, Dissent Rights, as the case may be, under the Plan of Arrangement, such amounts as the Purchaser is required to deduct and withhold from such consideration and remit in accordance with applicable Tax laws and administrative policy of the Canada Revenue Agency.

U.S. Securities Laws

The Arrangement shall be structured and executed such that, assuming the Court considers the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement (both procedurally and substantively) at a hearing at which Petroamerica Shareholders have a right to appear and grants the Final Order, the issuance of the Purchaser Shares issuable to Petroamerica Shareholders under the Arrangement will not require registration under the U.S. Securities Act, in reliance upon Section 3(a)(10) thereof. Each Party agrees to act in good faith, consistent with the intent of the Parties and the intended treatment of the Arrangement as set forth in this Section 2.16.

Article 4
DISSENTING SHAREHOLDERS

4.1

Each registered Petroamerica Shareholder shall be entitled to exercise the Dissent Rights in strict compliance with Section 191 of the ABCA as modified by this Plan of Arrangement and the Interim Order. A Dissenting Shareholder shall, at the Effective Time, cease to have any rights as a Petroamerica Shareholder and shall only be entitled to be paid the fair value of the Dissenting Shareholder’s Petroamerica Shares by the Purchaser (as a debt claim owing by the Purchaser) and shall be deemed to have transferred its Petroamerica Shares to the Purchaser in accordance with Section 3.1(d). A Dissenting Shareholder who for any reason is not entitled to be paid the fair value of the Dissenting Shareholder’s Petroamerica Shares shall be deemed to be a Former Petroamerica Shareholder and to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a non-dissenting Petroamerica Shareholder in accordance with Section 3.1(e). In either case, neither Petroamerica nor the Purchaser shall be required to recognize such holders as holders of Petroamerica Shares after the Effective Time and the name of such holder shall be removed from the register of Petroamerica Shares as at the Effective Time. The fair value of the Petroamerica Shares shall be determined as of the close of business on the last Business Day before the day on which the Arrangement is approved by the Petroamerica Shareholders at the Petroamerica Meeting. For greater certainty, in addition to any other restrictions in Section 191 of the ABCA, no person who has voted or has instructed a proxyholder to vote their Petroamerica Shares in favour of the Arrangement shall be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights.

Article 5
OUTSTANDING CERTIFICATES AND FRACTIONAL SECURITIES

A - 9

5.2

From and after the Effective Time: (a) certificates formerly representing Petroamerica Shares held by Former Petroamerica Shareholders shall represent only the right to receive the consideration to which the Former Petroamerica Shareholders are entitled under this Plan of Arrangement pursuant to Section 3.1(e) , as modified by Section 3.1(g) and Section 3.3(c), and any dividends or distributions thereon pursuant to Section 5.5; and (b) the certificates formerly representing Petroamerica Shares held by Dissenting Shareholders shall represent only the right to receive the fair value of the Petroamerica Shares represented by such certificates; in each case subject to compliance with the requirements set forth in this Article 5.

5.3

The Purchaser shall, as soon as practicable following the later of the Effective Date and the date of deposit by a Former Petroamerica Shareholder of a duly completed Letter of Transmittal and Election Form and the certificates representing applicable Petroamerica Shares, and such additional documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require, either:

5.4

If any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented an interest in outstanding Petroamerica Shares that were exchanged pursuant to Section 3.1(e) has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such certificate to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will issue and deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate the consideration to which the Former Petroamerica Shareholder is entitled pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement (and any dividends or distributions thereon). The person who is entitled to receive such consideration shall, as a condition precedent to the receipt thereof, give a bond to each of the Purchaser and Petroamerica and their respective transfer agents, which bond shall be in form and substance satisfactory to each of the Purchaser and Petroamerica and their respective transfer agents, or shall otherwise indemnify the Purchaser and Petroamerica and their respective transfer agents against any claim that may be made against any of them with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

A - 10

5.5

All dividends or other distributions made with respect to any Purchaser Shares allotted and issued pursuant to Section 3.1(e) of the Arrangement but for which a certificate has not been issued shall be paid or delivered to the Depositary to be held by the Depositary in trust for the registered holder thereof. Subject to Section 5.6, the Depositary shall pay and deliver to any such registered holder, as soon as reasonably practicable after the applicable Former Petroamerica Shareholder has complied with the requirements in Section 5.3 and become a registered holder (as applicable) and application therefor is made by the registered holder to the Depositary in such form as the Depositary may reasonably require, such dividends and distributions to which such holder is entitled (without interest), net of applicable withholding and other taxes.

5.6

Any certificate formerly representing Petroamerica Shares that is not deposited with all other documents as required by this Plan of Arrangement on or before the last Business Day prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, or such shorter or longer period required under any applicable law, shall cease to represent a right or claim of any kind or nature including the right of the Former Petroamerica Shareholder to receive Purchaser Shares (and any dividends and other distributions thereon) or cash and the right of the Former Petroamerica Shareholder to receive Purchaser Shares or cash shall be deemed to have been surrendered to the Purchaser. In such case, such Purchaser Shares (together with all dividends and other distributions thereon) or cash shall be returned to the Purchaser for cancellation and any dividends or other distributions in respect of Purchaser Shares shall be returned to the Purchaser.

5.7

No certificates representing fractional Purchaser Shares shall be issued under this Plan of Arrangement. In lieu of any fractional Purchaser Share, each Former Petroamerica Shareholder otherwise entitled to a fractional interest in a Purchaser Share will receive the nearest whole number of Purchaser Shares (with fractions equal to or greater than 0.5 being rounded up).

A - 11

Article 6
WITHHOLDINGS AND TAX ELECTIONS

6.1

The Purchaser, Petroamerica and the Depositary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable to any Petroamerica Shareholder or holder of Petroamerica Options or Petroamerica SARs and, for greater certainty, from any amount payable to any Dissenting Shareholder, as the case may be, under this Plan of Arrangement such amounts as the Purchaser is required to deduct and withhold from such consideration in accordance with the Income Tax Act (Canada), the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any other provision of any applicable law. Any such amounts will be deducted and withheld from the consideration payable pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement and shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the Petroamerica Shareholder or holder of Petroamerica Options or Petroamerica SARs in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority in accordance with applicable law. In connection with any amount required to be withheld pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement, the Purchaser may direct the Depositary to withhold the number of Purchaser Shares that may otherwise be paid to such Petroamerica Shareholder under this Plan of Arrangement and to sell such shares on the TSX or NYSE MKT for cash proceeds to be used for such withholdings, subject to applicable laws.
