During the period prior to the Effective Time, and subject to compliance with applicable Law, Acquireco shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to Target information concerning its business and properties as Target may reasonably request.

To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the holder of the securities in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing Agency.

Prior to the Effective Time, unless Target otherwise agrees in writing or as otherwise expressly contemplated or permitted by this agreement, Acquireco shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, (i) conduct its business and maintain its facilities in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (ii) maintain and preserve its business organization and its material rights and franchises, (iii) retain the services of its officers and key employees, (iv) maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, lessees, joint venture partners, licensees, lessors, licensors and other third parties, and (v) maintain all of its operational assets in their current condition (normal wear and tear excepted) to the end that the goodwill and ongoing business of Acquireco and its Subsidiaries shall not be impaired in any material respect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Acquireco shall (unless Target otherwise agrees in writing or as otherwise expressly contemplated or permitted by this agreement):

not do or permit any action that would, or would reasonably be expected to, render any representation or warranty made by it in this agreement untrue or inaccurate in a manner that would, or would reasonably be expected to be, Materially Adverse to Acquireco and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;

promptly notify Target orally and in writing of any change in the ordinary course of the business, operations or properties of Acquireco or its Subsidiaries and of any material complaints, investigations or hearings (or communications indicating that the same may be contemplated) that, individually is or in the aggregate are, or would reasonably be expected to be, Materially Adverse to Acquireco and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;

not enter into or modify any contract, agreement, commitment or arrangement with respect to any of the matters set forth in this Section 5.B; and

not implement any other change in the business, affairs, capitalization or dividend policy of Acquireco or its Subsidiaries that is, or in the aggregate are, or would reasonably be expected to be, Materially Adverse to Acquireco and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

In addition, Acquireco shall not (unless Acquireco first consults with Target or as otherwise expressly contemplated or permitted by this agreement) do, permit any of its Subsidiaries to grant, sell, transfer, pledge, lease, dispose of, encumber or agree to grant, sell, pledge, lease, dispose of or encumber any property or assets of Acquireco or any of its Subsidiaries, except in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or as otherwise required to comply with the terms of any credit agreement contemplated by the Commitment Letter.

Concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, Acquireco has delivered to Target a true copy of an executed commitment letter addressed to Acquireco (the “Commitment Letter”) from HSBC Bank U.S.A., N.A. (the “Financier”) pursuant to which the Financier has committed to provide Acquireco and Canco with financing in an aggregate amount of $100 million (the “Debt Financing”). The Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Acquireco, and to the knowledge of Acquireco, the other parties thereto. No event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default on the part of Acquireco under the Commitment Letter. Acquireco has no reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition of closing to be satisfied by it contained in the Commitment Letter. Subject to its terms and conditions, the Debt Financing, when funded in accordance with the Commitment Letter, together with cash on hand at Acquireco and Target, will provide Acquireco and Canco with cash proceeds at the Effective Time sufficient to consummate the Arrangement upon the terms contemplated by this agreement.

Acquireco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to complete definitive documentation with respect to the Debt Financing or alternative financing in the aggregate amount of $100 million on or before January 18, 2010. In the event that Acquireco is unable to complete definitive documentation with respect to either the Debt Financing or alternative financing by January 18, 2010 in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, Acquireco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange the Debt Financing or obtain alternative financing in the aggregate amount of $100 million as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the Outside Date, which Debt Financing or alternative financing shall be on terms acceptable to Acquireco and Target, acting reasonably. Acquireco shall give Target prompt notice of any breach or alleged breach by any party of the Commitment Letter or any termination of the Commitment Letter. Acquireco shall keep Target informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Debt Financing or alternative financing. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Debt Financing or any alternative financing has not been obtained, Acquireco and Canco shall continue to be obligated to consummate the Arrangement on the terms contemplated by this agreement and the failure to obtain the Debt Financing or any alternative financing shall not be a condition to the obligations of Acquireco or Canco to perform its obligations hereunder or to complete the Arrangement.

Acquireco shall at all times maintain in good standing and in full force and effect its senior secured revolving credit facility existing under that Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 30, 2008 by and among Acquireco, the Financier and The Bank of Nova Scotia, among others, and shall not draw any amounts thereunder except to finance the cash portion of the consideration payable under the Arrangement.

solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage, or facilitate (including by way of furnishing non-public information) any inquiries or the making by any third party of any proposals regarding an Alternative Transaction;

participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding any Alternative Transaction;

approve or recommend any Alternative Transaction; or

accept or enter any agreement, arrangement or understanding related to any Alternative Transaction.

immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions or negotiations, directly or indirectly, with any person with respect to any Alternative Transaction; and

not, directly or indirectly, waive or vary any terms or conditions of any confidentiality or standstill agreement that it has entered into with any person considering any Alternative Transaction and shall promptly request the return (or the deletion from retrieval systems and data bases or the destruction) of all information, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of each such agreement.

complying with the obligations of the board of directors of Target under applicable securities Law to prepare and deliver a directors’ circular in response to a take-over bid;

participating in any proceeding in respect of the Target Rights Plan in accordance and consistent with Target’s obligations hereunder; and

considering, participating in discussions or negotiations and entering into confidentiality agreements and providing information, in each case pursuant to Section 6, regarding a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that (i) did not result from a breach of Section 6 prior thereto, and (ii) the board of directors of Target has determined by formal resolution, in good faith and after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, is or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal, but only to the extent that the board of directors of Target also has determined by formal resolution, in good faith after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties.

Target has complied with its obligations under this Section 6 with respect to the Superior Proposal, including by providing Acquireco with all documentation required to be delivered under Section 6.C and a copy of the Superior Proposal (including any draft agreement to be entered into by Target which governs the Superior Proposal);

a period expiring at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth business day (the “Response Period”) after the later of (i) the date on which Acquireco received written notice from the board of directors of Target that it has resolved, subject only to compliance with this Section 6.E, to accept, or enter into a definitive agreement, undertaking or arrangement in respect of, a Superior Proposal, and (ii) the date Acquireco received a copy of the Superior Proposal as provided in Section 6.E(a); and

the board of directors of Target has considered any amendment to the terms of this agreement proposed in writing by Acquireco (or on its behalf) before the end of the Response Period as contemplated in Section 6.F and determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the Superior Proposal remains a Superior Proposal (as assessed against this agreement, together with the written amendments, if any, proposed by Acquireco before the end of the Response Period) and that it would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties not to enter into a binding agreement in respect of the Superior Proposal.

by mutual agreement in writing executed by Target and Acquireco (for itself and on behalf of Canco) (for greater certainty, without further action on the part of Target Security holders if termination occurs after the holding of the Target Special Meeting);

by Target,

after the Outside Date, if the conditions provided in Section 2.A and B have not been satisfied or waived by Target on or before the Outside Date, provided however that the right to terminate in this Section 7.A(b)(i) shall not be available to Target if its failure to fulfill any of its obligations under this agreement or if its breach of any of its representations and warranties under this agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur by such Outside Date; or

RG, Canco and Callco shall execute the Support Agreement and RG, Canco and the Transfer Agent shall execute the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement and RG shall issue to and deposit with the Transfer Agent the Special Voting Share in consideration of the payment to RG by IRC on behalf of the IRC Shareholders of one dollar ($1.00), to be thereafter held of record by the Transfer Agent as trustee for and on behalf of, and for the use and benefit of, the holders of the Exchangeable Shares in accordance with the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement. All rights of holders of Exchangeable Shares under the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement shall be received by them as part of the property receivable by them under Section 2.2(c) in exchange for the Exchangeable Elected Shares for which they were exchanged.

IRC Shareholders other than Eligible Holders may elect to receive, in respect of each IRC Share exchanged, the Cash Consideration, the RG Share Consideration or a combination thereof, subject to Section 2.4;

IRC Shareholders who are Eligible Holders may elect to (i) receive in respect of some or all of their IRC Shares, the Cash Consideration, the Exchangeable Share Consideration or a combination thereof, subject to Section 2.4 and (ii) receive in respect of the balance of their IRC Shares, if any, the Cash Consideration, the RG Share Consideration or a combination thereof, subject to Section 2.4;

any IRC Shareholder who does not deposit with the Depositary a duly completed Letter of Transmittal and Election Form prior to the Election Deadline, or otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of Section 2.3(c) and the Letter of Transmittal and Election Form, shall be deemed to have elected to receive Cash Consideration as to 44.372823%, and RG Share Consideration as to 55.627177%, subject to proration in respect of the aggregate consideration to be provided for such holder’s IRC Shares.

the maximum aggregate amount of Cash Consideration to be paid to IRC Shareholders pursuant to Sections 2.2(b) and 2.2(c) is the Canadian Dollar Equivalent as of the Effective Date of US$350,000,000 (the “Maximum Aggregate Cash Consideration”); and

the aggregate amount of Cash Consideration that would, but for this Section 2.4(c), be payable to IRC Shareholders pursuant to Sections 2.2(b) and 2.2(c) exceeds the Maximum Aggregate Cash Consideration, then (i) the Elected Percentage (the “Deemed Cash Consideration Elected Percentage”) of the Cash Consideration in respect of an IRC Share held by an IRC Shareholder shall be determined by multiplying the Elected Percentage of the Cash Consideration otherwise determined in respect of such IRC Share by a fraction, rounded to six decimal places, the numerator of which is the Maximum Aggregate Cash Consideration and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the Cash Consideration otherwise payable to all IRC Shareholders, and (ii) the holder of such IRC Share shall be deemed to have elected to receive (A) if such IRC Share is not an Exchangeable Elected Share, a percentage of RG Share Consideration in respect of such IRC Share equal to 100% less the Deemed Cash Consideration Elected Percentage, and (B) if such IRC Share is an Exchangeable Elected Share, a percentage of Exchangeable Share Consideration in respect of such IRC Share equal to 100% less the Deemed Cash Consideration Elected Percentage; and

the aggregate number of RG Shares and Exchangeable Shares that would, but for this Section 2.4(d), be issued to IRC Shareholders pursuant to Sections 2.2(b) and 2.2(c) exceeds the Maximum Aggregate Number of Shares, then (i) the Elected Percentage (the “Deemed Share Consideration Elected Percentage”) of the RG Share Consideration or Exchangeable Share Consideration, as the case may be, in respect of an IRC Share held by an IRC Shareholder shall be determined by multiplying the Elected Percentage of the RG Share Consideration or Exchangeable Share Consideration, as the case may be, otherwise determined in respect of such IRC Share by a fraction, rounded to six decimal places, the numerator of which is the Maximum Aggregate Number of Shares and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of RG Shares and Exchangeable Shares otherwise issuable to all IRC Shareholders as RG Share Consideration or Exchangeable Share Consideration, and (ii) the holder of such IRC Share shall be deemed to have elected to receive a percentage of Cash Consideration in respect of such IRC Share equal to 100% less the Deemed Share Consideration Elected Percentage.

ultimately are determined to be entitled to be paid fair value for their IRC Shares, which fair value, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 190 of the CBCA, shall be determined as of the Exchange Time, shall be deemed to have transferred those IRC Shares as of the Exchange Time at the fair value of the IRC Shares determined as of the Exchange Time, without any further act or formality and free and clear of all liens and claims, to Canco; or

ultimately are determined not to be entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for their IRC Shares, shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a holder of IRC Shares who has not exercised Dissent Rights and shall be deemed to have elected to receive, and shall receive, the consideration provided in Section 2.3(d),

Callco shall have the overriding right (the “Liquidation Call Right’’), in the event of and notwithstanding the proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco or any other distribution of the assets of Canco among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, pursuant to Section 5 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions, to purchase from all but not less than all of the holders of Exchangeable Shares (other than any holder of Exchangeable Shares which is RG or an affiliate of RG) on the Liquidation Date all but not less than all of the Exchangeable Shares held by each such holder on payment by Callco of an amount per share (the “Liquidation Call Purchase Price”) equal to the Current Market Price of RG Shares on the last business day prior to the Liquidation Date plus the Dividend Amount, which shall be satisfied in full by Callco delivering or causing to be delivered to such holder one RG Share plus any Dividend Amount. In the event of the exercise of the Liquidation Call Right by Callco, each holder shall be obligated to sell all the Exchangeable Shares held by the holder to Callco on the Liquidation Date on payment by Callco to the holder of the Liquidation Call Purchase Price for each such share, and Canco shall have no obligation to pay any Liquidation Amount or Dividend Amount to the holders of such shares so purchased by Callco.

To exercise the Liquidation Call Right, Callco must notify the Transfer Agent, as agent for the holders of Exchangeable Shares, and Canco of Callco’s intention to exercise such right at least 45 days before the Liquidation Date in the case of a voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco or any other voluntary distribution of the assets of Canco among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, and at least five business days before the Liquidation Date in the case of an involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco or any other involuntary distribution of the assets of Canco among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs. The Transfer Agent will notify the holders of Exchangeable Shares as to whether or not Callco has exercised the Liquidation Call Right forthwith after the expiry of the period during which the same may be exercised by Callco. If Callco exercises the Liquidation Call Right, then on the Liquidation Date, Callco will purchase and the holders will sell all of the Exchangeable Shares then outstanding for a price per share equal to the Liquidation Call Purchase Price.

For the purposes of completing the purchase of the Exchangeable Shares pursuant to the Liquidation Call Right, Callco shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Transfer Agent, on or before the Liquidation Date, certificates representing the aggregate number of RG Shares which Callco shall deliver or cause to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(a) and a cheque or cheques of Callco payable at par at any branch of the bankers of Callco representing the aggregate Dividend Amount, if any, in payment of the total Liquidation Call Purchase Price, in each case less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.6. Provided that Callco has complied with the immediately preceding sentence, on and after the Liquidation Date the holders of the Exchangeable Shares shall cease to be holders of the Exchangeable Shares and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of holders in respect thereof (including any rights under the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement), other than the right to receive their proportionate part of the aggregate Liquidation Call Purchase Price without interest, unless payment of the aggregate Liquidation Call Purchase Price for the Exchangeable Shares shall not be made upon presentation and surrender of share certificates in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 5.1(c), in which case the rights of the holders shall remain unaffected until the aggregate Liquidation Call Purchase Price has been paid in the manner herein provided. Upon surrender to the Transfer Agent of a certificate or certificates representing Exchangeable Shares, together with such other documents and instruments as may be required to effect a transfer of Exchangeable Shares under the CBCA and articles of Canco and such additional documents, instruments and payments as the Transfer Agent may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate or certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Transfer Agent on behalf of Callco shall transfer to such holder, the RG Shares to which such holder is entitled and as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter the Transfer Agent shall deliver to such holder certificates representing the RG Shares to which the holder is entitled and a cheque or cheques of Callco payable at par at any branch of the bankers of Callco representing the Dividend Amount, if any, and when received by the Transfer Agent, all dividends and other distributions with respect to such RG Shares with a record date after the Liquidation Date and before the date of the transfer of such RG Shares to such holder, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.6. If Callco does not exercise the Liquidation Call Right in the manner described above, on the Liquidation Date, the holders of the Exchangeable Shares will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Liquidation Amount otherwise payable by Canco in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco or any distribution of the assets of Canco among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs pursuant to Section 5 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions.

Callco shall have the overriding right (the “Redemption Call Right”), notwithstanding the proposed redemption of the Exchangeable Shares by Canco pursuant to Section 7 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions, to purchase from all but not less than all of the holders of Exchangeable Shares (other than any holder of Exchangeable Shares which is RG or an affiliate of RG) on the Redemption Date all but not less than all of the Exchangeable Shares held by each such holder on payment by Callco to each holder of an amount per Exchangeable Share (the “Redemption Call Purchase Price”) equal to the Current Market Price of a RG Share on the last business day prior to the Redemption Date plus the Dividend Amount, which shall be satisfied in full by Callco delivering or causing to be delivered to such holder one RG Share plus any Dividend Amount. In the event of the exercise of the Redemption Call Right by Callco, each holder shall be obligated to sell all the Exchangeable Shares held by the holder to Callco on the Redemption Date on payment by Callco to the holder of the Redemption Call Purchase Price for each such share, and Canco shall have no obligation to redeem, or to pay any Dividend Amount in respect of, such shares so purchased by Callco.

To exercise the Redemption Call Right, Callco must notify the Transfer Agent, as agent for the holders of Exchangeable Shares, and Canco of Callco’s intention to exercise such right at least 60 days before the Redemption Date, except in the case of a redemption occurring as a result of a RG Control Transaction (as defined in the Exchangeable Share Provisions), an Exchangeable Share Voting Event or an Exempt Exchangeable Share Voting Event, in which case Callco shall so notify the Transfer Agent and Canco on or before the Redemption Date. The Transfer Agent will notify the holders of the Exchangeable Shares as to whether or not Callco has exercised the Redemption Call Right forthwith after the expiry of the period during which the same may be exercised by Callco. If Callco exercises the Redemption Call Right, on the Redemption Date Callco will purchase and the holders will sell all of the Exchangeable Shares then outstanding for a price per share equal to the Redemption Call Purchase Price.

For the purposes of completing the purchase of the Exchangeable Shares pursuant to the Redemption Call Right, Callco shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Transfer Agent, on or before the Redemption Date, certificates representing the aggregate number of RG Shares which Callco shall deliver or cause to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.2(a) and a cheque or cheques of Callco payable at par at any branch of the bankers of Callco representing the aggregate Dividend Amount, if any, in payment of the aggregate Redemption Call Purchase Price, in each case less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.6. Provided that Callco has complied with the immediately preceding sentence, on and after the Redemption Date the holders of the Exchangeable Shares shall cease to be holders of the Exchangeable Shares and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of holders in respect thereof (including any rights under the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement), other than the right to receive their proportionate part of the aggregate Redemption Call Purchase Price without interest, unless payment of the aggregate Redemption Call Purchase Price for the Exchangeable Shares shall not be made upon presentation and surrender of share certificates in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 5.1(c), in which case the rights of the holders shall remain unaffected until the aggregate Redemption Call Purchase Price has been paid in the manner herein provided. Upon surrender to the Transfer Agent of a certificate or certificates representing Exchangeable Shares, together with such other documents and instruments as may be required to effect a transfer of Exchangeable Shares under the CBCA and articles of Canco and such additional documents, instruments and payments as the Transfer Agent may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate or certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Transfer Agent on behalf of Callco shall transfer to such holder, the RG Shares to which such holder is entitled and as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter the Transfer Agent shall deliver to such holder certificates representing the RG Shares to which the holder is entitled and a cheque or cheques of Callco payable at par at any branch of the bankers of Callco representing the Dividend Amount, if any, and when received by the Transfer Agent, all dividends and other distributions with respect to such RG Shares with a record date after the Redemption Date and before the date of the transfer of such RG Shares to such holder, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.6. If Callco does not exercise the Redemption Call Right in the manner described above, on the Redemption Date the holders of the Exchangeable Shares will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the redemption price otherwise payable by Canco in connection with the redemption of the Exchangeable Shares pursuant to Article 7 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions.

RG shall have the overriding right (the “Change of Law Call Right”), in the event of a Change of Law, to purchase (or to cause Callco to purchase) from all but not less than all of the holders of Exchangeable Shares (other than any holder of Exchangeable Shares which is an affiliate of RG) all but not less than all of the Exchangeable Shares held by each such holder upon payment by RG or Callco, as the case may be, of an amount per share (the “Change of Law Call Purchase Price”) equal to the Current Market Price of RG Shares on the last business day prior to the Change of Law Call Date plus the Dividend Amount, which shall be satisfied in full by RG or Callco, as the case may be, delivering or causing to be delivered to such holder one RG Share plus any Dividend Amount. In the event of the exercise of the Change of Law Call Right by RG or Callco, each holder of Exchangeable Shares shall be obligated to sell all the Exchangeable Shares held by such holder to RG or Callco, as the case may be, on the Change of Law Call Date upon payment by RG or Callco, as the case may be, to such holder of the Change of Law Call Purchase Price for each such Exchangeable Share.

To exercise the Change of Law Call Right, RG or Callco must notify the Transfer Agent of its intention to exercise such right at least 45 days before the date on which RG or Callco intends to acquire the Exchangeable Shares (the “Change of Law Call Date”). If RG or Callco exercises the Change of Law Call Right, then, on the Change of Law Call Date, RG or Callco, as the case may be, will purchase and the holders of Exchangeable Shares will sell all of the Exchangeable Shares then outstanding for a price per share equal to the Change of Law Call Purchase Price.

IRC may amend, modify and/or supplement this Plan of Arrangement at any time and from time to time (with the prior written consent of RG), provided that any such amendment, modification and/or supplement must be contained in a written document that is filed with the Court and, if made after the Special Meeting, approved by the Court and communicated to IRC Shareholders and IRC Optionholders if and as required by the Court.

Any amendment, modification or supplement to this Plan of Arrangement may be proposed by IRC (with the prior written consent of RG) at any time before or at the Special Meeting with or without any other prior notice or communication and, if so proposed and accepted by the persons voting at the Special Meeting in the manner required under the Interim Order, shall become part of this Plan of Arrangement for all purposes.

Any amendment, modification or supplement to this Plan of Arrangement may be made prior to the Effective Date unilaterally by RG, provided that it concerns a matter which, in the reasonable opinion of RG, is of an administrative nature required to better give effect to the implementation of this Plan of Arrangement and is not adverse to the financial or economic interests of any IRC Shareholder.

if post offices in Canada are not open for the deposit of mail, any notice which RG or the Depositary may give or cause to be given under the Arrangement will be deemed to have been properly given and to have been received by IRC Shareholders and IRC Optionholders if (i) it is given to the TSX for dissemination or (ii) it is published once in the national edition of The Globe and Mail and in the daily newspapers of general circulation in each of the French and English languages in the City of Montreal, provided that if the national edition of The Globe and Mail is not being generally circulated, publication thereof will be made in The National Post or any other daily newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Toronto; and

if post offices in the United States are not open for the deposit of mail, any notice which RG or the Depositary may give or cause to be given under the Arrangement will be deemed to have been properly given and to have been received by IRC Shareholders and IRC Optionholders if (i) it is given to the NYSE Amex for dissemination or (ii) it is published once in the national edition of the Wall Street Journal, provided that if the national edition of the Wall Street Journal is not being generally circulated, publication thereof will be made in the New York Times or any other daily newspaper of general circulation published in New York City.

there are fewer than 750,000 Exchangeable Shares outstanding (other than Exchangeable Shares held by RG and its affiliates, and as such number of shares may be adjusted as deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors to give effect to any subdivision or consolidation of or stock dividend on the Exchangeable Shares, any issue or distribution of rights to acquire Exchangeable Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Exchangeable Shares, any issue or distribution of other securities or rights or evidences of indebtedness or assets, or any other capital reorganization or other transaction affecting the Exchangeable Shares), in which case the Board of Directors may accelerate such redemption date to such date prior to the seventh anniversary of the date on which Exchangeable Shares first are issued as they may determine, upon at least 60 days’ prior written notice to the holders of the Exchangeable Shares and the Trustee;

an RG Control Transaction occurs, in which case, provided that the Board of Directors determines, in good faith and in its sole discretion, that it is not reasonably practicable to substantially replicate the terms and conditions of the Exchangeable Shares in connection with such RG Control Transaction and that the redemption of all but not less than all of the outstanding Exchangeable Shares is necessary to enable the completion of such RG Control Transaction in accordance with its terms, the Board of Directors may accelerate such redemption date to such date prior to the seventh anniversary of the date on which Exchangeable Shares first are issued as it may determine, upon such number of days’ prior written notice to the holders of the Exchangeable Shares and the Trustee as the Board of Directors may determine to be reasonably practicable in such circumstances;

an Exchangeable Share Voting Event that is not an Exempt Exchangeable Share Voting Event is proposed and (i) the holders of the Exchangeable Shares fail to take the necessary action, at a meeting or other vote of holders of Exchangeable Shares, to approve or disapprove, as applicable, the Exchangeable Share Voting Event or the holders of the Exchangeable Shares do take the necessary action but, in connection therewith, the holders of more than 2% of the outstanding Exchangeable Shares (other than those held by RG and its affiliates) exercise rights of dissent under the CBCA, and (ii) the Board of Directors determines in good faith that it is not reasonably practicable to accomplish the business purpose (which business purpose must be bona fide and not for the primary purpose of causing the occurrence of the Redemption Date) intended by the Exchangeable Share Voting Event in a commercially reasonable manner that does not result in an Exchangeable Share Voting Event, in which case the Redemption Date shall be the business day following the day on which the later of the events described in (i) and (ii) above occur; or

an Exempt Exchangeable Share Voting Event is proposed and holders of the Exchangeable Shares fail to take the necessary action at a meeting or other vote of holders of Exchangeable Shares to approve or disapprove, as applicable, the Exempt Exchangeable Share Voting Event in which case the Redemption Date shall be the business day following the day on which the holders of the Exchangeable Shares failed to take such action.

Ranking of Exchangeable Shares

Dividends

A holder of an Exchangeable Share shall be entitled to receive and the Board of Directors shall, subject to applicable law, on each RG Dividend Declaration Date, declare a dividend on each Exchangeable Share:

in the case of a cash dividend declared on the RG Shares, in an amount in cash for each Exchangeable Share equal to the cash dividend declared on each RG Share on the RG Dividend Declaration Date;

in the case of a stock dividend declared on the RG Shares to be paid in RG Shares, by the issue or transfer by Canco of such number of Exchangeable Shares for each Exchangeable Share as is equal to the number of RG Shares to be paid on each RG Share unless in lieu of such stock dividend Canco elects to effect a corresponding and contemporaneous and economically equivalent (as determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 3(5) hereof) subdivision of the outstanding Exchangeable Shares; or

in the case of a dividend declared on the RG Shares in property other than cash or RG Shares, in such type and amount of property for each Exchangeable Share as is the same as or economically equivalent (to be determined by the Board of Directors as contemplated by Section 3(5) hereof) to the type and amount of property declared as a dividend on each RG Share.

Cheques of Canco payable at par at any branch of the bankers of Canco shall be issued in respect of any cash dividends contemplated by Section 3(1)(a) hereof and the sending of such cheque to each holder of an Exchangeable Share shall satisfy the cash dividend represented thereby unless the cheque is not paid on presentation. Certificates registered in the name of the registered holder of Exchangeable Shares shall be issued or transferred in respect of any stock dividends contemplated by Section 3(1)(b) hereof and the sending of such a certificate to each holder of an Exchangeable Share shall satisfy the stock dividend represented thereby. Such other type and amount of property in respect of any dividends contemplated by Section 3(1)(c) hereof shall be issued, distributed or transferred by Canco in such manner as it shall determine and the issuance, distribution or transfer thereof by Canco to each holder of an Exchangeable Share shall satisfy the dividend represented thereby. No holder of an Exchangeable Share shall be entitled to recover by action or other legal process against Canco any dividend that is represented by a cheque that has not been duly presented to Canco’s bankers for payment or that otherwise remains unclaimed for a period of six years from the date on which such dividend was payable.

The record date for the determination of the holders of Exchangeable Shares entitled to receive payment of, and the payment date for, any dividend declared on the Exchangeable Shares under Section 3(1) hereof shall be the same dates as the record date and payment date, respectively, for the corresponding dividend declared on the RG Shares. The record date for the determination of the holders of Exchangeable Shares entitled to receive Exchangeable Shares in connection with any subdivision, redivision or change of the Exchangeable Shares under Section 3(1)(b) hereof and the effective date of such subdivision shall be the same dates as the record and payment date, respectively, for the corresponding stock dividend declared on the RG Shares.

If on any payment date for any dividends declared on the Exchangeable Shares under Section 3(1) hereof the dividends are not paid in full on all of the Exchangeable Shares then outstanding, any such dividends that remain unpaid shall be paid on a subsequent date or dates determined by the Board of Directors on which Canco shall have sufficient moneys, assets or property properly applicable to the payment of such dividends.

The Board of Directors shall determine, in good faith and in its sole discretion, economic equivalence for the purposes of these share provisions, including Section 3(1) hereof, and each such determination shall be conclusive and binding on Canco and its shareholders.  In making each such determination, the following factors shall, without excluding other factors determined by the Board of Directors to be relevant, be considered by the Board of Directors:

in the case of any stock dividend or other distribution payable in RG Shares, the number of such shares issued in proportion to the number of RG Shares previously outstanding;

in the case of the issuance or distribution of any rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase RG Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire RG Shares), the relationship between the exercise price of each such right, option or warrant and the Current Market Price;

in the case of the issuance or distribution of any other form of property (including any shares or securities of RG of any class other than RG Shares, any rights, options or warrants other than those referred to in Section 3(5)(b) hereof, any evidences of indebtedness of RG or any assets of RG), the relationship between the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in the manner above contemplated) of such property to be issued or distributed with respect to each outstanding RG Share and the Current Market Price of a RG Share; and

in all such cases, the general taxation consequences of the relevant event to holders of Exchangeable Shares to the extent that such consequences may differ from the taxation consequences to holders of RG Shares as a result of differences between taxation laws of Canada and the United States (except for any differing consequences arising as a result of differing withholding taxes and marginal taxation rates and without regard to the individual circumstances of holders of Exchangeable Shares).

Certain Restrictions

pay any dividends on the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Exchangeable Shares, other than stock dividends payable in Common Shares or any such other shares ranking junior to the Exchangeable Shares, as the case may be;

redeem or purchase or make any capital distributiaon in respect of Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Exchangeable Shares;

redeem or purchase any other shares of Canco ranking equally with the Exchangeable Shares with respect to the payment of dividends or the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of the assets of Canco among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs; or

issue any Exchangeable Shares or any other shares of Canco ranking equally with the Exchangeable Shares other than by way of stock dividends to the holders of such Exchangeable Shares; and

issue any shares of Canco ranking superior to the Exchangeable Shares.

Distribution on Liquidation

In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco or any other distribution of the assets of Canco among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, subject to the exercise by Callco of the Liquidation Call Right, a holder of Exchangeable Shares shall be entitled, subject to applicable law, to receive from the assets of Canco in respect of each Exchangeable Share held by such holder on the effective date (the “Liquidation Date”) of such liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or other distribution, before any distribution of any part of the assets of Canco among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Exchangeable Shares, an amount per share (the “Liquidation Amount”) equal to the Current Market Price of an RG Share on the last business day prior to the Liquidation Date plus the Dividend Amount, which shall be satisfied in full by Canco delivering or causing to be delivered to such holder one RG Share, plus an amount equal to the Dividend Amount.

On or promptly after the Liquidation Date, and provided the Liquidation Call Right has not been exercised by Callco, Canco shall pay or cause to be paid to the holders of the Exchangeable Shares the Liquidation Amount for each such Exchangeable Share upon presentation and surrender of the certificates representing such Exchangeable Shares, together with such other documents and instruments as may be required to effect a transfer of Exchangeable Shares under the CBCA and the Articles of Canco and such additional documents, instruments and payments as the Transfer Agent and Canco may reasonably require, at the registered office of Canco or at any office of the Transfer Agent as may be specified by Canco by notice to the holders of the Exchangeable Shares. Payment of the Liquidation Amount for such Exchangeable Shares shall be made by transferring or causing to be transferred to each holder the RG Shares to which such holder is entitled and by delivering to such holder, at the address of such holder recorded in the register of shareholders of Canco for the Exchangeable Shares or by holding for pick-up by such holder at the registered office of Canco or at any office of the Transfer Agent as may be specified by Canco by notice to the holders of Exchangeable Shares, on behalf of Canco, certificates representing RG Shares (which shares shall be fully paid and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance) and a cheque of Canco payable at par at any branch of the bankers of Canco in respect of the Dividend Amount, in each case less any amounts withheld on account of tax required to be deducted and withheld therefrom. On and after the Liquidation Date, the holders of the Exchangeable Shares shall cease to be holders of such Exchangeable Shares and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of holders in respect thereof (including any rights under the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement), other than the right to receive the Liquidation Amount without interest, unless payment of the total Liquidation Amount for such Exchangeable Shares shall not be made upon presentation and surrender of share certificates in accordance with the foregoing provisions, in which case the rights of the holders shall remain unaffected until the Liquidation Amount has been paid in the manner hereinbefore provided. Canco shall have the right at any time after the Liquidation Date to transfer or cause to be issued or transferred to, and deposited with, the Agent the Liquidation Amount in respect of the Exchangeable Shares represented by certificates that have not at the Liquidation Date been surrendered by the holders thereof, such Liquidation Amount to be held by the Agent as trustee for and on behalf of, and for the use and benefit of, such holders. Upon such deposit being made, the rights of a holder of Exchangeable Shares after such deposit shall be limited to receiving its proportionate part of the Liquidation Amount for such Exchangeable Shares so deposited, without interest, and when received by the Agent, all dividends and other distributions with respect to the RG Shares to which such holder is entitled with a record date after the date of such deposit and before the date of transfer of such RG Shares to such holder (in each case less any amounts withheld on account of tax required to be deducted and withheld therefrom) against presentation and surrender of the certificates for the Exchangeable Shares held by them in accordance with the foregoing provisions.

After Canco has satisfied its obligations to pay the holders of the Exchangeable Shares the Liquidation Amount per Exchangeable Share pursuant to Section 5(1) of these share provisions, such holders shall not be entitled to share in any further distribution of the assets of Canco.

Retraction of Exchangeable Shares by Holder

A holder of Exchangeable Shares shall be entitled at any time, subject to the exercise by Callco of the Retraction Call Right and otherwise upon compliance with, and subject to, the provisions of this Section 6, to require Canco to redeem any or all of the Exchangeable Shares registered in the name of such holder for an amount per share equal to the Current Market Price of a RG Share on the last business day prior to the Retraction Date plus the Dividend Amount (the “Retraction Price”), which shall be satisfied in full by Canco delivering or causing to be delivered to such holder one RG Share (which on issue will be admitted to listing and trading by the TSX and the NASDAQ Global Market (subject to official notice of issuance)) for each Exchangeable Share presented and surrendered by the holder together with, on the designated payment date therefor, the Dividend Amount. To effect such redemption, the holder shall present and surrender at the registered office of Canco or at any office of the Transfer Agent as may be specified by Canco by notice to the holders of Exchangeable Shares the certificate or certificates representing the Exchangeable Shares which the holder desires to have Canco redeem, together with such other documents and instruments as may be required to effect a transfer of Exchangeable Shares under the CBCA and the Articles of Canco and such additional documents, instruments and payments as the Transfer Agent and Canco may reasonably require, and together with a duly executed statement (the “Retraction Request”) in the form of Schedule A hereto or in such other form as may be acceptable to Canco:

specifying that the holder desires to have all or any number specified therein of the Exchangeable Shares represented by such certificate or certificates (the “Retracted Shares”) redeemed by Canco;

stating the business day on which the holder desires to have Canco redeem the Retracted Shares (the “Retraction Date”), provided that the Retraction Date shall be not less than 10 business days nor more than 15 business days after the date on which the Retraction Request is received by Canco and further provided that, in the event that no such business day is specified by the holder in the Retraction Request, the Retraction Date shall be deemed to be the 15th business day after the date on which the Retraction Request is received by Canco and subject also to Section 6(8); and

acknowledging the overriding right (the “Retraction Call Right”) of Callco to purchase all but not less than all the Retracted Shares directly from the holder and that the Retraction Request shall be deemed to be a revocable offer by the holder to sell the Retracted Shares to Callco in accordance with the Retraction Call Right on the terms and conditions set out in Section 6(3) hereof.

Provided that Callco has not exercised the Retraction Call Right, upon receipt by Canco or the Transfer Agent in the manner specified in Section 6(1) of a certificate or certificates representing the number of Retracted Shares, together with a Retraction Request, and provided that the Retraction Request is not revoked by the holder in the manner specified in Section 6(7), Canco shall redeem the Retracted Shares effective at the close of business on the Retraction Date and shall transfer or cause to be issued or transferred to such holder the RG Shares to which such holder is entitled and shall comply with Section 6(4) hereof. If only a part of the Exchangeable Shares represented by any certificate is redeemed (or purchased by Callco pursuant to the Retraction Call Right), a new certificate for the balance of such Exchangeable Shares shall be issued to the holder at the expense of Canco.

Subject to the provisions of this Section 6, upon receipt by Canco of a Retraction Request, Canco shall immediately notify Callco thereof and shall provide to Callco a copy of the Retraction Request. In order to exercise the Retraction Call Right, Callco must notify Canco of its determination to do so (the “Callco Call Notice”) within five business days of notification to Callco by Canco of the receipt by Canco of the Retraction Request. If Callco does not so notify Canco within such five business day period, Canco will notify the holder as soon as possible thereafter that Callco will not exercise the Retraction Call Right. If Callco delivers the Callco Call Notice within such five business day period, and provided that the Retraction Request is not revoked by the holder in the manner specified in Section 6(7), the Retraction Request shall thereupon be considered only to be an offer by the holder to sell the Retracted Shares to Callco in accordance with the Retraction Call Right. In such event, Canco shall not redeem the Retracted Shares and Callco shall purchase from such holder and such holder shall sell to Callco on the Retraction Date the Retracted Shares for a purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) per share equal to the Retraction Price per share. To the extent that Callco pays the Dividend Amount in respect of the Retracted Shares, Canco shall no longer be obligated to pay any declared and unpaid dividends on such Retracted Shares. For the purpose of completing a purchase pursuant to the Retraction Call Right, on the Retraction Date, Callco shall transfer or cause to be issued or transferred to the holder of the Retracted Shares the RG Shares to which such holder is entitled. Provided that Callco has complied with the immediately preceding sentence and Section 6(4) hereof, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Retracted Shares pursuant to the Retraction Call Right shall be deemed to have occurred as at the close of business on the Retraction Date and, for greater certainty, no redemption by Canco of such Retracted Shares shall take place on the Retraction Date. In the event that Callco does not deliver a Callco Call Notice within such five business day period, and provided that the Retraction Request is not revoked by the holder in the manner specified in Section 6(7), Canco shall redeem the Retracted Shares on the Retraction Date and in the manner otherwise contemplated in this Section 6.

Canco or Callco, as the case may be, shall deliver or cause the Transfer Agent to deliver to the relevant holder, at the address of the holder recorded in the register of shareholders of Canco for the Exchangeable Shares or at the address specified in the holder’s Retraction Request or by holding for pick-up by the holder at the registered office of Canco or at any office of the Transfer Agent as may be specified by Canco by notice to the holders of Exchangeable Shares, certificates representing the RG Shares (which shares shall be fully paid and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance and which on issue will be admitted to listing and trading by the TSX and the NASDAQ Global Market (subject to official notice of issuance)) registered in the name of the holder or in such other name as the holder may request, and, if applicable and on or before the payment date therefor, a cheque payable at par at any branch of the bankers of Canco or Callco, as applicable, representing the aggregate Dividend Amount, in payment of the Retraction Price or the Purchase Price, as the case may be, in each case less any amounts withheld on account of tax required to be deducted and withheld therefrom, and such delivery of such certificates and cheques on behalf of Canco or by Callco, as the case may be, or by the Transfer Agent shall be deemed to be payment of and shall satisfy and discharge all liability for the Retraction Price or Purchase Price, as the case may be, to the extent that the same is represented by such share certificates and cheques (plus any tax deducted and withheld therefrom and remitted to the proper tax authority).

On and after the close of business on the Retraction Date, the holder of the Retracted Shares shall cease to be a holder of such Retracted Shares and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a holder in respect thereof (including any rights under the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement), other than the right to receive the Retraction Price or Purchase Price, as the case may be, without interest, unless upon presentation and surrender of certificates in accordance with the foregoing provisions, payment of the Retraction Price or the Purchase Price, as the case may be, shall not be made as provided in Section 6(4) hereof, in which case the rights of such holder shall remain unaffected until the Retraction Price or the Purchase Price, as the case may be, has been paid in the manner hereinbefore provided. On and after the close of business on the Retraction Date, provided that presentation and surrender of certificates and payment of the Retraction Price or the Purchase Price, as the case may be, has been made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder of the Retracted Shares so redeemed by Canco or purchased by Callco shall thereafter be a holder of the RG Shares delivered to it.

A holder of Retracted Shares may, by notice in writing given by the holder to Canco before the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the Retraction Date, withdraw its Retraction Request, in which event such Retraction Request shall be null and void and, for greater certainty, the revocable offer constituted by the Retraction Request to sell the Retracted Shares to Callco shall be deemed to have been revoked.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, if:

exercise of the rights of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares, or any of them, to require Canco to redeem any Exchangeable Shares pursuant to this Section 6 on any Retraction Date would require listing particulars or any similar document to be issued in order to obtain the approval of the TSX or the NASDAQ Global Market to the listing and trading (subject to official notice of issuance) of, the RG Shares that would be required to be delivered to such holders of Exchangeable Shares in connection with the exercise of such rights; and

as a result of (a) above, it would not be practicable (notwithstanding the reasonable endeavours of RG) to obtain such approvals in time to enable all or any of such RG Shares to be admitted to listing and trading by the TSX and the NASDAQ Global Market (subject to official notice of issuance) when so delivered,

Redemption of Exchangeable Shares by Canco

Subject to applicable law, and provided Callco has not exercised the Redemption Call Right, Canco shall on the Redemption Date redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Exchangeable Shares for an amount per share (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the Current Market Price of a RG Share on the last business day prior to the Redemption Date plus the Dividend Amount, which shall be satisfied in full by Canco causing to be delivered to each holder of Exchangeable Shares one RG Share for each Exchangeable Share held by such holder, together with an amount equal to the Dividend Amount.

In any case of a redemption of Exchangeable Shares under this Section 7, Canco shall, at least 60 days before the Redemption Date (other than a Redemption Date established in connection with a RG Control Transaction, an Exchangeable Share Voting Event or an Exempt Exchangeable Share Voting Event), send or cause to be sent to each holder of Exchangeable Shares a notice in writing of the redemption by Canco or the purchase by Callco under the Redemption Call Right, as the case may be, of the Exchangeable Shares held by such holder. In the case of a Redemption Date established in connection with a RG Control Transaction, an Exchangeable Share Voting Event or an Exempt Exchangeable Share Voting Event, the written notice of the redemption by Canco or the purchase by Callco under the Redemption Call Right will be sent on or before the Redemption Date, on as many days prior written notice as may be determined by the Board of Directors to be reasonably practicable in the circumstances. In any such case, such notice shall set out the formula for determining the Redemption Price or the Redemption Call Purchase Price, as the case may be, the Redemption Date and, if applicable, particulars of the Redemption Call Right.

The rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Exchangeable Shares may be added to, changed or removed only with the approval of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares given as hereinafter specified.

Any approval given by the holders of the Exchangeable Shares to add to, change or remove any right, privilege, restriction or condition attaching to the Exchangeable Shares or any other matter requiring the approval or consent of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares in accordance with applicable law shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given if it shall have been given in accordance with applicable law, subject to a minimum requirement that such approval be evidenced by resolution passed by not less than two- thirds of the votes cast on such resolution at a meeting of holders of Exchangeable Shares duly called and held at which the holders of at least 10% of the outstanding Exchangeable Shares at that time are present or represented by proxy; provided that if at any such meeting the holders of at least 10% of the outstanding Exchangeable Shares at that time are not present or represented by proxy within one-half hour after the time appointed for such meeting, then the meeting shall be adjourned to such date not less than five days thereafter and to such time and place as may be designated by the Chairman of such meeting. At such adjourned meeting the holders of Exchangeable Shares present or represented by proxy thereat may transact the business for which the meeting was originally called and a resolution passed thereat by the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast on such resolution at such meeting shall constitute the approval or consent of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares.

Reciprocal Changes, etc. in Respect of RG Shares

Each holder of an Exchangeable Share acknowledges that the Support Agreement provides, in part, that so long as any Exchangeable Shares not owned by RG or its affiliates are outstanding, RG will not without the prior approval of Canco and the prior approval of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares given in accordance with Section 12(2) of these share provisions:

issue or distribute RG Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire RG Shares) to the holders of all or substantially all of the then outstanding RG Shares by way of stock dividend or other distribution, other than an issue of RG Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire RG Shares) to holders of RG Shares (i) who exercise an option to receive dividends in RG Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire RG Shares) in lieu of receiving cash dividends, or (ii) pursuant to any dividend reinvestment plan or similar arrangement;

issue or distribute rights, options or warrants to the holders of all or substantially all of the then outstanding RG Shares entitling them to subscribe for or to purchase RG Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire RG Shares); or

issue or distribute to the holders of all or substantially all of the then outstanding RG Shares:

shares or securities of RG of any class (other than RG Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for or carrying rights to acquire RG Shares);

rights, options or warrants other than those referred to in Section 13(1)(b) above;

evidence of indebtedness of RG; or

assets of RG,

Each holder of an Exchangeable Share acknowledges that the Support Agreement further provides, in part, that so long as any Exchangeable Shares not owned by RG or its affiliates are outstanding, RG will not without the prior approval of Canco and the prior approval of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares given in accordance with Section 12(2) of these share provisions:

subdivide, redivide or change the then outstanding RG Shares into a greater number of RG Shares;

reduce, combine, consolidate or change the then outstanding RG Shares into a lesser number of RG Shares; or

reclassify or otherwise change the RG Shares or effect an amalgamation, merger, reorganization or other transaction affecting the RG Shares,

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 13, in the event of an RG Control Transaction:

in which ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or amalgamates with, or in which all or substantially all of the then outstanding RG Shares are acquired by one or more other corporations to which RG is, immediately before such merger, amalgamation or acquisition, related within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (otherwise than virtue of a right referred to in paragraph 251(5)(b) thereof);

which does not result in an acceleration of the Redemption Date in accordance with paragraph (b) of the definition of such term in Section 1(1) of the share provisions; and

in which all or substantially all of the then outstanding RG Shares are converted into or exchanged for shares or rights to receive such shares (the “Other Shares”) of another corporation (the “Other Corporation”) that, immediately after such RG Control Transaction, owns or controls, directly or indirectly, RG;

Actions by Canco under Support Agreement

Canco will take all such actions and do all such things as shall be necessary to perform and comply with and to ensure performance and compliance by RG, Callco and Canco with all provisions of the Support Agreement applicable to RG, Callco and Canco, respectively, in accordance with the terms thereof including taking all such actions and doing all such things as shall be necessary to enforce for the direct benefit of Canco all rights and benefits in favour of Canco under or pursuant to such agreement.

Canco shall not propose, agree to or otherwise give effect to any amendment to, or waiver or forgiveness of its rights or obligations under, the Support Agreement without the approval of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares given in accordance with Section 12(2) of these share provisions other than such amendments, waivers and/or forgiveness as may be necessary or advisable for the purposes of:

adding to the covenants of the other parties to such agreement for the protection of Canco or the holders of the Exchangeable Shares thereunder;

making such amendments or modifications not inconsistent with such agreement as may be necessary or desirable with respect to matters or questions arising thereunder which, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors, it may be expedient to make, provided that the Board of Directors shall be of the good faith opinion, after consultation with counsel, that such amendments and modifications will not be prejudicial to the interests of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares; or

making such changes in or corrections to such agreement which, on the advice of counsel to Canco, are required for the purpose of curing or correcting any ambiguity or defect or inconsistent provision or clerical omission or mistake or manifest error contained therein, provided that the Board of Directors shall be of the good faith opinion that such changes or corrections will not be prejudicial to the rights or interests of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares.

Legend; Call Rights; Withholding Rights

The certificates evidencing the Exchangeable Shares shall contain or have affixed thereto a legend in form and on terms approved by the Board of Directors, with respect to the Support Agreement, the provisions of the Plan of Arrangement relating to the Liquidation Call Right, the Redemption Call Right and the Change of Law Call Right, the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement (including the provisions with respect to the voting rights and automatic exchange thereunder) and the Retraction Call Right.

Each holder of an Exchangeable Share, whether of record or beneficial, by virtue of becoming and being such a holder shall be deemed to acknowledge each of the Liquidation Call Right, the Retraction Call Right and the Redemption Call Right, in each case, in favour of Callco, and the Change of Law Call Right in favour of RG and Callco, and the overriding nature thereof in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco or any other distribution of the assets of Canco among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, or the retraction or redemption of Exchangeable Shares, as the case may be, and to be bound thereby in favour of Callco as therein provided.

Canco, Callco, RG and the Transfer Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any dividend, distribution or consideration otherwise payable to any holder of Exchangeable Shares such amounts as Canco, Callco, RG or the Transfer Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Income Tax Act (Canada) or United States tax laws or any provision of provincial, territorial, state, local or foreign tax law, in each case, as amended. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the holder of the Exchangeable Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing Agency. To the extent that the amount so required to be deducted or withheld from any payment to a holder exceeds the cash portion of the consideration otherwise payable to the holder, Canco, Callco, RG and the Transfer Agent are hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of such portion of the consideration as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to Canco, Callco, RG or the Transfer Agent, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and Canco, Callco, RG or the Transfer Agent shall notify the holder thereof and remit any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale.

Notices

Any notice, request or other communication to be given to Canco by a holder of Exchangeable Shares shall be in writing and shall be valid and effective if given by first class mail (postage prepaid) or by telecopy or by delivery to the registered office of Canco and addressed to the attention of the Secretary of Canco. Any such notice, request or other communication, if given by mail, telecopy or delivery, shall only be deemed to have been given and received upon actual receipt thereof by Canco.

Any presentation and surrender by a holder of Exchangeable Shares to Canco or the Transfer Agent of certificates representing Exchangeable Shares in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Canco or the retraction or redemption of Exchangeable Shares shall be made by first class mail (postage prepaid) or by delivery to the registered office of Canco or to such office of the Transfer Agent as may be specified by Canco, in each case, addressed to the attention of the Secretary of Canco. Any such presentation and surrender of certificates shall only be deemed to have been made and to be effective upon actual receipt thereof by Canco or the Transfer Agent, as the case may be. Any such presentation and surrender of certificates made by first class mail (postage prepaid) shall be at the sole risk of the holder mailing the same.

Any notice, request or other communication to be given to a holder of Exchangeable Shares by or on behalf of Canco shall be in writing and shall be valid and effective if given by first class mail (postage prepaid) or by delivery to the address of the holder recorded in the register of shareholders of Canco or, in the event of the address of any such holder not being so recorded, then at the last known address of such holder. Any such notice, request or other communication, if given by mail, shall be deemed to have been given and received on the third business day following the date of mailing and, if given by delivery, shall be deemed to have been given and received on the date of delivery.

Authority; Non-Contravention.

Target has all requisite corporate power and corporate authority to enter into this agreement and, subject to the Target Securityholder Approval, to consummate the Transactions and to perform its obligations under this agreement. On December 16, 2009, the board of directors of Target unanimously approved this agreement and the Transactions and resolved to recommend to Target Shareholders that Target Shareholders give the Target Securityholder Approval. The execution and delivery of this agreement by Target and the consummation by Target of the Transactions have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Target, subject to the Target Securityholder Approval. No other corporate proceedings on the part of Target or any of its Subsidiaries are necessary to authorize this agreement, the performance by Target of its obligations under this agreement and, subject to the Target Securityholder Approval, the Transactions. This agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Target and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Target, enforceable by Acquireco against Target and each of its Subsidiaries in accordance with its terms, subject to the availability of equitable remedies and the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally. The execution and delivery of this agreement does not, and the consummation of the Transactions and compliance with the provisions of this agreement will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of first refusal, consent, termination, buyback, purchase, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of any property, rights or benefits under, or result in the imposition of any additional obligation under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of Target or any of its Subsidiaries under, (i) the Articles of Continuance or By-Laws of Target or the comparable organization documents of any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) any contract, royalty, instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other property agreement, partnership or joint venture agreement or other legally binding agreement, arrangement or understanding whether oral or written (a “Contract”), to which Target or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or their respective properties or assets is bound or affected, or (iii) subject to the governmental filings and other matters referred to in the following sentence, any Law applicable to Target or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective properties or assets. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any Agency, is required by or with respect to Target or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of this agreement by Target or the consummation by Target of the Transactions, except for (i) the filing with the applicable securities regulatory Agencies of the Target Circular, (ii) any approvals required by the Interim Order and the Final Order, (iii) filings with the Director under the CBCA and (iv) such other consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings as are set forth in Section (d) of the Target Disclosure Statement.

Each of Target and its Subsidiaries possesses all certificates, franchises, licenses, permits, grants, easements, covenants, certificates, orders, authorizations and approvals issued to or granted by Agencies or other third parties (collectively, “Permits”) necessary to conduct its business as such business is currently conducted or is expected to be conducted following completion of the Transaction, except where the failure to possess such Permits would not be Materially Adverse to the Target and its Subsidiaries. Except as set forth in Section (d) of the Target Disclosure Statement, (i) all such Permits are validly held by Target or its Subsidiaries, and Target and its Subsidiaries have complied in all respects with all terms and conditions thereof, (ii) none of such Permits will be subject to suspension, modification, revocation or non-renewal as a result of the execution and delivery of this agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, and (iii) since December 31, 2008, neither Target nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice, notice of violation or probable violation, notice of revocation, or other written communication from or on behalf of any Agency, alleging (A) any violation of such Permit, or (B) that Target or any of its Subsidiaries requires any Permit required for its business as such business is currently conducted, that is not currently held by it.

Information Supplied. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by Target or its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Target Circular or any other filings relating to the Transactions will, at the date the Target Circular is first mailed to Target Securityholders, or at the time of the Target Special Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The Target Circular will comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of applicable securities Law, except that no representation or warranty is made by Target with respect to statements made or incorporated by reference therein based on information supplied by Acquireco for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Target Circular.

Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Except as disclosed in the Target Public Disclosure Documents filed and publicly available prior to the date of this agreement (the “Filed Target Public Disclosure Documents”), since January 1, 2009, Target has conducted, and caused each of its Subsidiaries to conduct, its business only in the ordinary course and:

there has not been any event, change, effect or development (including any decision to implement such a change made by the board of directors of Target or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of which senior management believes that confirmation of the board of directors is probable), which, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Materially Adverse effect on Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;

there has not been, except for regular annual dividends not in excess of $0.04 per Target Share, with customary record and payment dates, any declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash, stock or property) with respect to any Target Shares;

neither Target nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any action which, if done after the date of this agreement, would violate Section 5(a) of this agreement, except as set forth in Section (g) of the Target Disclosure Statement; and

no liability or obligation of any nature (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) that is Materially Adverse to Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, has been incurred other than in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, except as set forth in Section (g) of the Target Disclosure Statement.

Disclosure. Target has not failed to disclose to Acquireco in writing any information known to Target regarding any event, circumstance or action taken or failed to be taken that is Materially Adverse to Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as has been disclosed in Section (h) of the Target Disclosure Statement:

there are no severance and employment agreements with respect to current or former employees of Target or any of its Subsidiaries or any bonus or incentive arrangements with respect to such employees that may require payments as a result of the Transactions;

Target and its Subsidiaries do not have liabilities or obligations in excess of the liabilities or obligations reflected or reserved against in the financial statements contained in the Filed Target Public Disclosure Documents that, either individually or in the aggregate, are Materially Adverse to Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;

the data or information made available to Acquireco in respect of Target and its Subsidiaries (including any information disclosed in writing), was materially complete and, to the knowledge of Target, correct in all material respects and, did not, at the time it was made available and for the period of and matter to which it relates, and to the knowledge of Target, contain any untrue statement of material fact.

Compliance. Except for any conflicts, defaults or violations that would not, individually or in the aggregate (taking into account the impact of any cross- defaults), reasonably be expected to result in a Materially Adverse effect on Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, each of Target and its Subsidiaries has complied with, and is not in conflict with, or in default (including cross defaults) under or in violation of:

its articles or other organizational documents or by-laws;

any Law or Permit applicable to it, its business or operations or by which any of its properties or assets is bound or affected; or

any agreement, arrangement or understanding to which it, its business or operations or by which any of its properties or assets is bound or affected.

Tax Matters.

Target and each of its Subsidiaries have timely filed, or caused to be timely filed with the appropriate Agency, all Tax Returns required to be filed by them, and have timely paid, or caused to be timely paid, all material amounts of Taxes due and payable by them, including all instalments on account of any Taxes, except for any such failure to file or failure to pay which would not individually or in the aggregate, have a Materially Adverse effect on Target. All such Tax Returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects and have been completed in accordance with applicable Laws. To the best of Target’s knowledge, no such Tax Return contains any misstatement or omits any statement that should have been included therein. No Tax Return has been amended.

Reserves and provisions for Taxes accrued but not yet due on or before the Effective Date as reflected in Target’s financial statements contained in the Filed Target Public Disclosure Documents are adequate as of the date of such financial statements, in accordance with GAAP. No deficiencies for Taxes have been proposed, asserted or assessed against Target that are not adequately reserved against.

Neither Target nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notification that any issues involving a material amount of Taxes have been raised (and are currently pending) by the CRA, the United States Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority, including, without limitation, any sales tax authority, in connection with any of the Tax Returns filed or required to be filed, which would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Materially Adverse effect on Target.

No unresolved assessments, reassessments, audits, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, or investigations exist or have been initiated with regard to any Taxes or Tax Returns of Target or its Subsidiaries. To the knowledge of  Target, no assessment, reassessment, audit or investigation by any Agency is underway, threatened or imminent with respect to Taxes for which Target or any of its Subsidiaries may be liable, in whole or in part.

No election, consent for extension, nor any waiver that extends any applicable statute of limitations relating to the determination of a Tax liability of Target or any of its Subsidiaries has been filed or entered into and is still effective.

Target and each of its Subsidiaries have duly and timely collected all amounts on account of any goods, services, sales, value added, transfer or other Taxes required to have been collected by it and have duly set aside in trust or timely remitted to the appropriate Agency any and all such amounts required to be remitted by it.

Target has made available to Acquireco or its legal counsel or accountants true and complete copies of all Tax Returns for (and non privileged studies and opinions related thereto) Target and each of its Subsidiaries for each such entity’s last three taxable years.

Target and each of its Subsidiaries is, and at all times has filed its Tax Returns on the basis that it is, resident for Tax purposes in its country of incorporation or formation and has not at any time been treated by any Agency as resident in any other country for any Tax purpose (including any treaty, convention or arrangement for the avoidance of double taxation). None of Target or any of its Subsidiaries has filed any Tax Return on the basis that it is subject to Tax in any jurisdiction other than its country of incorporation or formation (and political subdivisions thereof) or received written notification from any Agency that it may be required to file on such basis.

Target and each of its Subsidiaries have properly withheld and remitted all amounts required to be withheld and/or remitted (including income tax, non-resident withholding tax, Canada Pension Plan contributions, Employment Insurance and Worker’s Compensation premiums) and have paid such amounts due to the appropriate authority on a timely basis and in the form required under the appropriate legislation.

There are no Tax liens on any assets of Target or any of its Subsidiaries except for Taxes not yet currently due and those which would not reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse effect on Target and its Subsidiaries considered as a whole.

None of sections 78, 80, 80.01, 80.02, 80.03 or 80.04 of the ITA, or any equivalent provision of the tax legislation of any province or any other jurisdiction, have applied or will apply to Target or any of its Subsidiaries at any time up to and including the Effective Time.

Additionally:

Target is not aware of any infringement of any such intellectual property by any third party; and

the conduct of the business of Target and its Subsidiaries has not, and will not, cause Target or any of its Subsidiaries to infringe or violate any of the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, proprietary rights, computer software rights or licences or other intellectual property of any other person and neither Target nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written or oral claim or notice of infringement or potential infringement of the intellectual property of any other person arising out of the conduct of Target and its Subsidiaries and, in particular Target or the applicable Subsidiary has complied with any licence respecting intellectual property held by Target and its Subsidiaries.

Employment Matters.

Except as to matters otherwise specifically disclosed in Section (o) of the Target Disclosure Statement, none of Target or its Subsidiaries is a party to any agreement, obligation or understanding providing for severance or termination payments to, or any employment agreement with, any director, consultant, employee or officer, other than any common law obligations of reasonable notice of termination or pay in lieu thereof and any statutory obligations.

None of Target or any of its Subsidiaries had or has any labour contracts, collective bargaining agreements or employment or consulting agreements with any persons employed by Target or any persons otherwise performing services primarily for Target or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Business Personnel”). Neither Target nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any unfair labour practice with respect to the Business Personnel since January 1, 2006 and there is no unfair labour practice complaint pending or, to the knowledge of Target, threatened, against Target or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Business Personnel.

There is no labour strike, dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending or, to the knowledge of Target, threatened against Target or any of its Subsidiaries, and neither Target nor any of its Subsidiaries has experienced any labour strike, dispute, slowdown or stoppage or other labour difficulty involving the Business Personnel since January 1, 2006.

None of Target or its Subsidiaries is subject to any litigation, actual or, to the knowledge of Target, threatened, relating to employment or termination of employment of employees or independent contractors, other than those claims or litigation as would, individually or in the aggregate, not be Materially Adverse to Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Target and each of its Subsidiaries has operated in accordance with all applicable Laws with respect to employment and labour, including employment and labour standards, occupational health and safety, employment equity, pay equity, workers’ compensation, human rights and labour relations and there are no current, pending or, to the knowledge of Target, threatened proceedings before any Agency with respect to any of the above.

Pension and Employee Benefits.

Section (p) of the Target Disclosure Statement includes a complete list of all employee benefit, health, welfare, supplemental unemployment benefit, bonus, pension, profit sharing, deferred compensation, stock option, stock compensation, stock purchase, retirement, hospitalization insurance, medical, dental, legal, disability and similar plans or arrangements or practices, whether written or oral, which are maintained by Target or any of its Subsidiaries, including all Employee Benefit Plans and Material Employment Agreements (collectively, the “Target Plans”).

To Target’s knowledge, no step has been taken, no event has occurred and no condition or circumstance exists that has resulted, or would reasonably be expected to result, in any Target Plan being ordered or required to be terminated or wound up in whole or in part or having its registration under applicable Laws refused or revoked, or being placed under the administration of any trustee or receiver or Agency or being required to pay any material Taxes, penalties or levies under applicable Laws. To Target’s knowledge, there are no actions, suits, claims (other than routine claims for payment of benefits in the ordinary course), trials, demands, investigations, arbitrations or other proceedings which are pending or threatened in respect of any of the Target Plans or their assets which, individually or in the aggregate, are Materially Adverse to Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

All of the Target Plans are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Laws and their terms, and all of the Target Plans are fully insured or fully funded on a projected benefit obligation basis.

None of the Target Plans is a Multiemployer Plan nor has Target or any of its Subsidiaries been obligated to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan at any time within the past five years.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing with respect to each Target Plan:

Target has delivered or made available to Acquireco a true, correct and complete copy of: (i) each writing constituting a part of such Plan, including all plan documents, employee communications, benefit schedules, trust agreements, and insurance contracts and other funding vehicles; (ii) the most recent Annual Report (Form 5500 Series) and accompanying schedule, if any, (iii) the current summary plan description and any material modifications thereto, if any (in each case, whether or not required to be furnished under ERISA); (iv) the most recent annual financial report, if any; (v) the most recent actuarial report, if applicable; and (vi) the most recent determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service, if any. Target has delivered or made available to Acquireco a true, complete and correct copy of each Material Employment Agreement. Except as specifically provided in the foregoing documents delivered or made available to Acquireco, there are no amendments to any Plan or Material Employment Agreement that have been adopted or approved nor has Target or any of its Subsidiaries undertaken to make any such amendments or to adopt or approve any new Plan or Material Employment Agreement.

Section (p) of the Target Disclosure Statement identifies each Plan that is intended to be a “qualified plan” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code (“Qualified Plans”). The Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable determination letter with respect to each Qualified Plan and the related trust that has not been revoked, and there are no circumstances and no events have occurred that would adversely affect the qualified status of any Qualified Plan or the related trust. Section (p) of the Disclosure Statement identifies each Plan which is intended to meet the requirements of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code, and each such plan meets such requirements and provides no disqualified benefits (as such term is defined in Code Section 4976(b)).

Section (p) of the Target Disclosure Statement sets forth a list of all Employee Benefit Plans or Employment Agreements under which the execution and delivery of this agreement, shareholders approval of the Transactions or the consummation of the Transactions would (either alone or in conjunction with any other event) (i) result in, cause the accelerated vesting, funding or delivery of, or increase the amount of value of, any payment or benefit to any employee, consultant, officer or director of Target or any of its Subsidiaries, or would limit the right of Target or any of its Subsidiaries to amend, merge, terminate or receive a reversion of assets from any Employee Benefit Plan or related trust or any Material Employment Agreement or related trust, or (ii) result in an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code.

There are no pending or threatened claims (other than claims for benefits in the ordinary course), lawsuits or arbitrations which have been asserted or instituted, and to Target’s knowledge, no set of circumstances exists which may reasonably give rise to a claim or lawsuit, against the Plans, any fiduciaries thereof with respect to their duties to the Plans or the assets of any of the trusts under any of the Plans which would reasonably be expected to result in any material liability of Target or any of its Subsidiaries to the PBGC, the Department of Treasury, the Department of Labor, any Multiemployer Plan, any Plan or any participant in a Plan.

Target, its Subsidiaries and each member of their respective business enterprises has complied with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act and all similar state, local and foreign Laws, so as not to incur any liabilities thereunder.

All Employee Benefit Plans subject to the Laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States (i) have been maintained in accordance with all applicable requirements, (ii) if they are intended to qualify for special Tax treatment, meet all requirements for such treatment, and (iii) if they are intended to be funded and/or book-reserved, are fully funded and/or book-reserved on a projected obligation basis, as appropriate, based upon reasonable actuarial assumptions.

Each individual who renders services to Target or any of its Subsidiaries who is classified by Target or such Subsidiary, as applicable, as having the status of an independent contractor or other non-employee status for any purpose (including for purposes of taxation and Tax reporting and under Employee Benefit Plans) is properly so characterized.

On or before the date hereof, Target has caused each grantor trust providing for funding of amounts payable pursuant to any Plans and/or Employment Agreements to be amended to ensure that no amounts are required to be contributed thereto as a result of the execution and delivery of this agreement, the announcement hereof, and/or the announcement or consummation of the Transactions, and to ensure that such trusts are at all times revocable, in whole or in part, without the consent of the trustees or beneficiaries thereof or any third party.

Books and Records. The financial books, records and accounts of Target and its Subsidiaries in all material respects, (i) have been maintained in accordance with GAAP on a basis consistent with prior years, (ii) are stated in reasonable detail and accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Target and its Subsidiaries and (iii) accurately and fairly reflect the basis for Target consolidated financial statements. The corporate minute books of Target and its Subsidiaries contain minutes of all meetings and resolutions of the directors and shareholders held, and full access thereto has been provided to Acquireco.

Insurance. Target has made available to Acquireco true, correct and complete copies of all material policies of insurance to which each of Target and its Subsidiaries are a party or are a beneficiary or named insured. Target and its Subsidiaries maintain insurance coverage with reputable insurers in such amounts and covering such risks as are in accordance with normal industry practice for companies engaged in businesses similar to that of Target and its Subsidiaries.

Litigation. Except as specifically disclosed in Section (s) of the Target Disclosure Statement, there is no suit, action or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of Target, threatened against Target or any of its Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse effect on Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and there is not any judgement, decree, injunction, rule or order of any Agency or arbitrator outstanding against Target or any of its Subsidiaries having, or which would reasonably be expected to have, any Materially Adverse effect on Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. As of the date of this agreement, except as specifically disclosed in Section (s) of the Target Disclosure Statement, there is no suit, action, proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of Target, threatened, against Target or any of its Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to prevent or delay in any material respect the consummation of the Transactions.

Determination by the Board and Voting Requirements. The board of directors of Target (after receiving financial advice including the Fairness Opinion, legal advice and after considering other factors), by the unanimous vote of its directors, has determined and resolved at its meeting held on December 16, 2009:

that the entering into of this agreement, the performance by Target of its obligations hereunder and the Transactions are in the best interests of Target and its shareholders;

the Arrangement is fair to Target Shareholders;

to approve the Transactions and this agreement;

to extend the Separation Time (as defined therein), including providing the Rights Agent (as defined in the Target Rights Agreement) with notice in writing of such extension, under the Target Rights Agreement until after the vote by the Target Shareholders on the Arrangement at the Target Special Meeting;

to recommend that Target Shareholders approve the Arrangement; and

to recommend that Target Shareholders waive the Target Rights Agreement so that neither the entering into nor delivery of this agreement, the Arrangement or the other agreements contemplated hereby nor the consummation of all or any part of the Transactions shall constitute a Flip- in Event (as defined in the Target Rights Agreement).

To the knowledge of Target, after consultation with outside legal counsel, no provincial or state take-over statute or similar statute or regulation (including Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions) applies or purports to apply to this agreement or any of the Transactions.

Brokers; Schedule of Fees and Expenses. Except as set forth in Section (u) of the Target Disclosure Statement, no broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other person is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s, financial advisor’s or other similar fee or commission in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Target. Target has made available to Acquireco true and complete copies of all agreements that are referred to in Section (u) of the Target Disclosure Statement and all indemnification and other agreements related to the engagement of the persons so listed.

Opinion of Financial Advisor. Target has received the opinion of the Financial Advisor dated the date of this agreement, to the effect that, as of such date, the consideration to be received pursuant to the Transactions by Target Shareholders is fair to the Target Shareholders from a financial point of view, a copy of which opinion will be promptly delivered to Acquireco.

Rights Agreement. Target has taken all necessary action and executed and delivered all such documents and instruments that are required to extend the Separation Time (as defined therein), including providing the Rights Agent (as defined in the Target Rights Agreement) with notice in writing of such extension, under the Target Rights Agreement until after the vote by the Target Shareholders on the Arrangement at the Target Special Meeting.
