6.2

The delivery by the Company to the Underwriters of the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus shall constitute a representation and warranty to the Underwriters by the Company that the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as applicable, except with respect to any Underwriting Information (as defined herein), does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

9.              Material Change

9.1

During the Prospectus Delivery Period, the Company or a Guarantor, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Underwriters in writing, with full particulars, of:

any change (actual, contemplated or threatened) in the business, affairs, operations, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), capital or ownership of the Company and the Guarantors on a consolidated basis (other than a change disclosed in the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus); or

(b)

any change in any matter covered by a statement contained or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Subsequent Disclosure Document or an amendment to the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus; or

(c)

any material fact that arises or has been discovered that would have been required to be stated in the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Subsequent Disclosure Document or any amendment to the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus had that fact arisen or been discovered on or prior to the date of the Prospectus or any Subsequent Disclosure Document or any amendment to the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be,

which change or fact is, or may be, of such a nature as to render the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Subsequent Disclosure Document or any amendment to the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus misleading or untrue in any material respect or which would result in any of such documents not complying in any material respect with any of the Securities Laws or which would result in any of such documents containing any untrue statement of a material fact or omitting to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or which change would reasonably be expected to have a significant effect on the market price or value of the Securities. The Company shall in good faith discuss with the Underwriters any change in circumstances (actual or proposed within the knowledge of the Company) which is of such a nature that there is reasonable doubt whether notice need be given to the Underwriters pursuant to this Section and, in any event, prior to making any filing referred to in Section 9.4.

9.2

The Company will advise the Representatives promptly, and confirm such advice in writing: (i) when any amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed or becomes effective; (ii) when any supplement to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment to the Prospectus has been filed; (iii) of any request by the SEC for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the receipt of any comments from the SEC relating to the Registration Statement or any other request by the SEC for any additional information; (iv) of the issuance by the SEC of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus, any of the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act; (v) of the occurrence of any event within the Prospectus Delivery Period as a result of which the Prospectus, the Disclosure Package or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Prospectus, the Disclosure Package or any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading; (vi) of the receipt by the Company of any notice of objection of the SEC to the use of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the Securities Act; and (vii) of the receipt by the Company of any notice with respect to any suspension of the qualification of the Securities for offer and sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and each of the Company and the Guarantors will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus, any of the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or suspending any such qualification of the Securities and, if any such order is issued, will obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

9.3

If during the Prospectus Delivery Period (i) any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading or (ii) it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with Securities Laws, the Company will promptly notify the Underwriters thereof and forthwith prepare and, subject to Section 6.3, file with the SEC and furnish to the Underwriters and to such dealers as the Representatives may designate, such amendments or supplements to the Prospectus as may be necessary so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Prospectus will comply with law. If at any time prior to the Closing Date, (i) any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which the Disclosure Package as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Disclosure Package is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading or (ii) it is necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to comply with Securities Laws, the Company will promptly notify the Underwriters thereof and forthwith prepare and, subject to Section 6.3 above, file with the SEC (to the extent required) and furnish to the Underwriters and to such dealers as the Representatives may designate, such amendments or supplements to the Disclosure Package as may be necessary so that the statements in the Disclosure Package as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Disclosure Package is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Disclosure Package will comply with Securities Laws.

9.4

The Company and the Guarantors shall promptly comply with all applicable filing and other requirements, if any, under the Securities Laws arising as a result of any change referred to in Section 9.1 and shall prepare and file under all Securities Laws, with all possible dispatch, and in any event within any time limit prescribed under Securities Laws, any Subsequent Disclosure Document or any amendment to the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus as may be required under Securities Laws during the Prospectus Delivery Period. The Company shall further promptly deliver to the Underwriters a copy for each of the Underwriters and the Underwriters’ counsel of opinions and comfort letters with respect to each such amendment to the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus and any Subsequent Disclosure Document substantially similar to those referred to in Section 6.1.

9.5

The delivery by the Company and the Guarantors to the Underwriters of any Subsequent Disclosure Document or any amendment to the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus shall constitute a representation and warranty to the Underwriters by the Company, with respect to such Subsequent Disclosure Document or the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as so amended by such amendment, and by each Subsequent Disclosure Document and each amendment to the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus previously delivered to the Underwriters, to the same effect as set forth in Section 6.2.

Disaster Out. if after the Applicable Time and prior to the Closing Time, there should develop, occur or come into effect or existence any event, action, state, condition or occurrence of national or international consequence or any action, governmental law or regulation, enquiry or other occurrence of any nature whatsoever which, in such Underwriter’s sole opinion in its absolute discretion, acting reasonably, might be expected to have a significant adverse effect on the market price or value of the Securities, including, without limitation, the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or Canada or the declaration by the United States or Canada of a national emergency or war or the occurrence of any other calamity or crisis in the United States, Canada or elsewhere; or

14.2

The rights of termination contained in Section 14.1 may be exercised by any Underwriter giving written notice thereof to the Company and the Representatives at any time prior to the Closing Time, and are in addition to any other rights or remedies the Underwriters may have in respect of any default, act or failure to act or non-compliance by the Company and the Guarantors in respect of any of the matters contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise.

The Company and the Guarantors shall jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Underwriters (which term, for the purpose of this Section shall be deemed to include affiliates of the Underwriters) and the Underwriters’ directors, officers and employees and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (for the purposes of this Section 17, the “Indemnified Underwriter Parties”) from and against all liabilities, claims, demands, losses (other than loss of profit in connection with the distribution of the Securities), costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, in any way caused by or arising directly or indirectly from or in consequence of:

(e)

The Company or the Guarantors not complying with any applicable requirement of the U.S. Securities Laws, or any breach or violation or alleged breach or violation of any U.S. Securities Laws or other securities legislation of any jurisdiction; or

any order made or any inquiry, investigation, or proceeding instituted, threatened or announced by any court, securities regulatory authority, stock exchange, or other competent authority (except any such proceeding or order based solely upon the activities of any of the Underwriters) or any change of law or the interpretation or administration thereof which operates to prevent or restrict the trading in or the distribution of the Securities or any other securities of the Company or the Guarantors in the United States;

provided that the Company and the Guarantors shall cease to be liable for indemnification under this Section 17.1 in respect of any liabilities, claims, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses that arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, any omission or alleged omission of a material fact made in the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, any Subsequent Disclosure Document or in any other material so filed in reliance upon and in conformity with information in respect of any of the Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company and each Guarantor by the Underwriters through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in such document, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the “Underwriting Information” described in Section 17.3 below. The rights of indemnity contained in this Section 17.1 in respect of a claim based on an omission or alleged omission in any Subsequent Disclosure Document shall not apply if the Company has complied with Section 7.1 and, if applicable, Sections 7.2 and 9.5 and the person asserting such claim was not provided with a copy of any Subsequent Disclosure Document which corrects such omission or alleged omission.

17.2

[Reserved]

17.3

Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Guarantor and each of their respective directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (for the purposes of this Section 17, the “Indemnified Company Parties” and together with the Indemnified Underwriter Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in 17.1(c) and (d) above, but only with respect to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or any omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or any Guarantor by any Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Disclosure Package or any Subsequent Disclosure Document, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information under the heading “Underwriting” in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the information related to stabilizing transactions, and syndicate covering transactions contained in the two paragraphs under the subheading “Price Stabilization; Short Positions” thereunder (the “Underwriting Information”).

17.4

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in Section 17.1 is unavailable, in whole or in part, for any reason to an Indemnified Underwriter Party in respect of any liabilities, claims, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses referred to therein, the Company and the Guarantors shall contribute to the amount paid or payable (or, if such indemnity is unavailable only in respect of a portion of the amount so paid or payable, such portion of the amount so paid or payable) by such Indemnified Underwriter Party as a result of such liabilities, claims, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses:

(a)

in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities; or

(b)

if the allocation provided by clause (a) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (a) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the matters or things referred to in Section 17.1 which resulted in such liabilities, claims, demands, losses, costs, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations,

provided that the Underwriters shall not in any event be liable to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the Underwriting Commission or any portion thereof actually received. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same ratio as the total proceeds from the offering of the Securities (net of the Underwriting Commission payable to the Underwriters but before deducting expenses), received by the Company and the Guarantors is to the Underwriting Commission received by the Underwriters. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the matters or things referred to in Section 17.1 that resulted in such liabilities, claims, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses relate to information supplied by or steps or actions taken or done or not taken or done by or on behalf of the Company and the Guarantors or to information supplied by or steps or actions taken or done or not taken or done by or on behalf of the Underwriters and the relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement, omission or misrepresentation, or other matter or thing referred to in Section 17.1. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Underwriter Party as a result of the liabilities, claims, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Underwriter Party in connection with investigating or defending any such liabilities, claims, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses, whether or not resulting in an action, suit, proceeding or claim. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 17.4 were determined by any method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 17.4. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 17.4, in no event shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total Underwriting Commission received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 17.4 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

17.5

If any claim contemplated by this Section 17 shall be asserted against any Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party concerned shall promptly notify the Company and the Guarantors or the Underwriters, as applicable (referred to interchangeably for purposes of this Section 17 as the “Indemnifying Party”) of the nature of such claim (provided that any failure to so notify promptly shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of liability under this Section 17 only to the extent that such failure prejudices the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend such claim), and the Indemnifying Party shall, subject as hereinafter provided, be entitled (but not required) to assume the defense of any suit or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation or proceeding) brought to enforce such claim. Any such defense shall be through legal counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party (whose acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld) and no admission of liability or settlement shall be made by the Indemnifying Party or any Indemnified Party in respect of any Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the other, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such suit and participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such suit on behalf of the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of time; (ii) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party; or (iii) the named parties to any such suit or proceeding include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have received a written opinion from counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such suit or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnified Party and shall be liable to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party, it being understood, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstance, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Indemnified Parties). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or suit effected without its written consent. It is the intention of the Company and the Guarantors to constitute each of the Underwriters as trustees for the Underwriters’ directors, officers, employees, affiliates and persons who control any of the Underwriters, of the covenants of the Company and the Guarantors under Section 17.1 with respect to the Indemnified Parties and the Underwriters agree to accept such trust and to hold and enforce such covenants on behalf of such persons. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

17.6

Each of the Company and the Guarantors waives all right of contribution by statute or common law which it may have against the Underwriters in respect of losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities which it may sustain as a direct or indirect consequence of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or any Subsequent Disclosure Document or any other document containing or being alleged to contain a misrepresentation.

17.7

The rights provided in this Section 17 shall be in addition to and not in derogation of any other right which the Underwriters may have by statute or otherwise at law.

18.           Expenses

18.1

Whether or not the offering is completed, the Company will be responsible for all expenses of or incidental to the creation, issue, delivery and marketing of the offering, including without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of the Company’s legal counsel, all fees and disbursements of auditors, prospectus filing fees, rating agency fees and all expenses related to marketing activities and printing costs; provided, however, that the Underwriters will be responsible for their “out of pocket” expenses and the fees and disbursements of the Underwriters’ legal counsel. The Company will be responsible for all fees and expenses of any Trustee and any agent of any Trustee and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for any Trustee in connection with any Indenture and the Securities. If the offering is terminated, other than by reason of a default of one of the Underwriters, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriters for any and all expenses reasonably incurred by them.

19.           Several Obligations

19.1

The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Securities shall be several and not joint, and the percentage of the Securities that each of the Underwriters shall be severally obligated to purchase is as set forth in Schedule I to this Agreement.

19.2

If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase its applicable percentage of the Securities at the Closing Time, and the number of Securities not purchased is less than or equal to 5.1% of the aggregate amount of Securities agreed to be purchased by the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement, each of the other Underwriters shall be obligated to purchase severally and not jointly, the Securities not taken up, on a pro rata basis or as they may otherwise agree as between themselves.

19.3

If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase its applicable percentage of the Securities at the Closing Time, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities not purchased is greater than 5.1% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities agreed to be purchased by the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement, those of the Underwriters who shall be willing and able to purchase their respective percentage of the Securities shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase severally the Securities not taken up on a pro rata basis or as they may otherwise agree as between themselves. In the event that such right is not exercised, the Underwriter or Underwriters that are willing and able to purchase its or their respective percentage of the Securities shall be relieved, without liability, of its or their obligations to purchase its or their respective percentage of the Securities on submission to the Company of reasonable evidence of its or their ability and willingness to fulfil its or their obligations under this Agreement at the Closing Time.

19.4

Notwithstanding anything contained in Sections 19.2 or 19.3, nothing in this Section 19 shall oblige the Company to sell to the Underwriters less than all of the Securities. In addition, nothing contained in Sections 19.2 or 19.3 shall relieve from responsibility to the Company any one of the Underwriters who shall default in its obligation to purchase its respective percentage of the Securities.

20.           Authority of the Representatives

20.1

All steps which must or may be taken by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement, with the exception of any waiver of a material condition precedent pursuant to Section 13, any notice of termination pursuant to Section 14, any settlement of an indemnified claim pursuant to Section 17 and any agreement to amend this Agreement, may be taken by the Representatives on the Underwriters’ behalf, after consultation with the other Underwriters, and this is the authority to the Company for accepting notification of any such steps from the Representatives on their behalf without any further investigation or inquiry.
