respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor, (b) any contest by the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person as to the amount of the Obligations, the validity or enforceability of any terms of the Credit Documents or the perfection or priority of any security granted to the Collateral Agent or the Secured Creditors, (c) any defence, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defence of payment or performance) that may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor, (d) any release, compounding or other variance of the liability of the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person liable in any manner under or in respect of the Obligations or the extinguishment of all or any part of the Obligations by operation of law, (e) any change in the time, place, manner or place of payment or any consent, waiver, renewal, alteration, extension, compromise, arrangement, concession, release, discharge or other indulgences which the Secured Creditors or the Collateral Agent may grant to the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person, (f) any amendment or supplement to, or alteration or renewal of, or restatement, replacement, refinancing or modification or variation of (including any increase in the amounts available thereunder or the inclusion of an additional borrower thereunder), or other action or inaction under, the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any other related document or instrument, or the Obligations, (g) any discontinuance, termination, reduction, renewal, increase, abstention from renewing or other variation of any credit or credit facilities to, or the terms or conditions of any transaction with, the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person, (h) any change in the ownership, control, name, objects, businesses, assets, capital structure or constitution of the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Credit Party or any reorganization (whether by way of reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, transfer, sale, lease or otherwise) of the Borrower, a Grantor or any other Credit Party or their respective businesses, (i) any dealings with the security which the Secured Creditors or the Collateral Agent hold or may hold pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents, including the taking, giving up or exchange of securities, their variation or realization, the accepting of compositions and the granting of releases and discharges, (j) any limitation of status or power, disability, incapacity or other circumstance relating to the Borrower, any Grantor, any other Credit Party or any other Person, including any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or other like proceeding involving or affecting the Borrower, any Grantor, any other Credit Party or any other Person or any action taken with respect to this Guarantee by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not any Grantor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing, (k) the assignment of all or any part of the benefits of this Agreement, (l) any impossibility, impracticability, frustration of purpose, force majeure or illegality of any Credit Document, or the occurrence of any change in the laws, rules, regulations or ordinances of any jurisdiction or by any present or future action of (i) any governmental entity that amends, varies, reduces or otherwise affects, or purports to amend, vary, reduce or otherwise affect, any of the Obligations or the obligations of a Grantor under this Agreement, or (ii) any court order that amends, varies, reduces or otherwise affects any of the Obligations, (m) any taking or failure to take security, any loss of, or loss of value of, any security, or any invalidity, non-perfection or unenforceability of any security held by the Secured Creditors or the Collateral Agent, or any exercise or enforcement of, or failure to exercise or enforce, security, or irregularity or defect in the manner or procedure by which the Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors realize on

- 11 -

such security, (n) any application of any sums received to the Obligations, or any part thereof, and any change in such application, and (o) any other circumstance whatsoever (other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) guaranteed by it hereunder) (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or any Grantor) that constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower or any Grantor for its Obligations, or of any Grantor under the guarantee contained in this Article 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Grantor, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations guaranteed by such Grantor hereunder or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Grantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor against any Grantor. Each Grantor renounces all benefits of discussion and division. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

Section 2.04 Reinstatement. The guarantee of each Grantor contained in this Article 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations guaranteed by such Grantor hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Grantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Grantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

Section 2.05 Payments. Each Grantor hereby agrees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, without set-off, counterclaim or other defence and on the same basis as payments are made under Sections 5.03 and 5.04 of the Credit Agreement. The provisions of this Section 2.05 survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.06 Information. Each Grantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s and each other Grantor’s and their Subsidiaries’ financial condition and assets and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Grantor assumes and incurs hereunder and agrees that none of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors will have any duty to advise such Grantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

- 12 -

Section 2.07 Payment on Demand. Each Grantor will pay and perform the Obligations and pay all other amounts payable by it to the Secured Creditors or the Collateral Agent under Article 2, and the obligation to do so arises, immediately after demand for such payment or performance is made in writing to it, provided, however, that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 2.08 Interest Act (Canada). Each Grantor acknowledges that certain of the rates of interest applicable to the Obligations may be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), whenever any interest is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, such rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate is equivalent to (i) the applicable rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, (ii) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for such interest is payable (or compounded) ends, and (iii) divided by 360 or 365, as the case may be.

Section 2.09 Judgment Currency.

(a) The Grantors’ obligations hereunder to make payments in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the relevant Secured Creditor of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to such Secured Creditor under this Agreement. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Grantor in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a Canadian Schedule I bank designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the day on which the judgment is given (such day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, each Grantor covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount in the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(c) For purposes of determining any rate of exchange for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

- 13 -

Section 2.10 Limitations Act. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Limitation Act (Ontario), a claim may be brought against a Grantor based on this Agreement at any time within 6 years from the date on which demand for payment of the Obligations is made to such Grantor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.11 Liability. For greater certainty, the obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be several and not joint or joint and several.

- 16 -

(g)

by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Grantors of this Agreement, when (x) any Pledged Securities are delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement or (y) the filing of the PPSA financing statements with respect to the respective Grantor is made as described in Section 4.02(f), the Collateral Agent will obtain, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, a legal, valid and first priority perfected lien upon and security interest in such Pledged Securities as security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations of the applicable Grantor to the extent such security interest may be perfected by possession or filing of a PPSA financing statement;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral shall not include (i) Consumer Goods; (ii) ULC Shares, (iii) Excess Exempted Foreign Entity Voting Equity Interests; (iv) any Letter of Credit Rights that do not constitute Supporting Obligations (both capitalized terms have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Uniform Commercial Code as from time to time in effect in the State of New York), (v) any right, title or interest in or to any real property (whether leased or owned), (vi) interests in partnerships and joint ventures that are not Subsidiaries which cannot be pledged without the consent of one or more third parties (whose consent has not been obtained); (vii) assets subject to a Lien permitted by Section 10.01(iii), 10.01(vi) or 10.01(xiv) of the Credit Agreement to the extent the agreements relating to such Lien prohibit the attachment of a security interest in such assets in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, (viii) any trademark or service ▇▇▇▇ applications filed in the Canadian Intellectual Property Office on the basis of a Grantor’s intent to use such trademark or service ▇▇▇▇, unless and until evidence of use of the ▇▇▇▇ acceptable to the Canadian Intellectual Property Office has been filed with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office provided that once evidence of use is submitted and accepted the Security Interest shall attach immediately to such trademark or service ▇▇▇▇ in the manner contemplated in Section 4.01(a), and (ix) any Deposit Accounts (and the cash and Cash Equivalents therein) specifically and exclusively used for (A) payroll, payroll taxes, and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of any employees of Borrower and its Subsidiaries and accrued and unpaid employee compensation (including salaries, wages, benefits and

(c) Each Grantor acknowledges that (i) value has been given, (ii) it has rights in the Collateral or the power to transfer rights in the Collateral to the Collateral Agent (other than after-acquired Collateral), (iii) it has not agreed to postpone the time of attachment of the Security Interest, and (iv) it has received a copy of this Agreement.

- 21 -

acquired personal property, and an uncrystalized floating charge on land” of such Grantor or such other description as the Collateral Agent may determine and (ii) contain the information required by the applicable PPSA. Each Grantor agrees to provide such information to the Collateral Agent promptly upon request.

(e) Each Grantor also ratifies its authorization for the Collateral Agent (or its designee) to file, without the signature of any Grantor, in any relevant jurisdiction any financing statements (including fixture filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations or amendments thereto.

(f) The Collateral Agent (or its designee) is further authorized to file with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country) such documents as may be necessary or advisable for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest granted by each Grantor, without the signature of any Grantor, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Collateral Agent as secured party.

(g) The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral.

Section 4.02 Representations and Warranties.

Each Grantor represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors that:

(a)

In any such sale to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may, for the purpose of making payment for all or any part of the Collateral so purchased, use any claim for Secured Obligations then due and payable to it as a credit against the purchase price.

Section 5.03 Exercise of Remedies. The remedies under Section 5.01 and Section 5.02 may be exercised from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default separately or in combination and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors however arising or created.

Section 5.04 Receiver’s Powers.

(a) Any receiver appointed by the Collateral Agent is vested with the rights and remedies which could have been exercised by the Collateral Agent in respect of a Grantor or the Collateral and such other powers and discretions as are granted in the instrument of appointment and any supplemental instruments. The identity of the receiver, its replacement and its remuneration are within the sole and unfettered discretion of the Collateral Agent.

(b) Any receiver appointed by the Collateral Agent will act as agent for the Collateral Agent for the purposes of taking possession of the Collateral, but otherwise and for all other purposes (except as provided below), as agent for the relevant Grantor. Such receiver may sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of Collateral as agent for the Grantor or as agent for the Collateral Agent as the Collateral Agent may determine in its discretion. Each Grantor agrees to ratify and confirm all actions of such receiver acting as agent for such Grantor, and to release and indemnify the receiver in respect of all such actions.

(c) The Collateral Agent, in appointing or refraining from appointing any receiver, does not incur liability to the receiver, any Grantor or otherwise and is not responsible for any misconduct or negligence of such receiver.

Section 5.05 Dealing with the Collateral.

(a) The Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors are not obliged to exhaust their recourse against the Grantors (or any of them) or any other Person or against any other security they may hold in respect of the Secured Obligations before realizing upon or otherwise dealing with the Collateral in such manner as the Collateral Agent may consider desirable.

- 36 -

(b) The Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors may grant extensions or other indulgences, take and give up securities, accept compositions, grant releases and discharges and otherwise deal with the Grantors and with other Persons, sureties or securities as they may see fit without prejudice to the Secured Obligations, the liability of any of the Grantors or the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors in respect of the Collateral.

(c) Except as otherwise provided by law or this Agreement, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors are not (i) liable or accountable for any failure to collect, realize or obtain payment in respect of the Collateral, (ii) bound to institute proceedings for the purpose of collecting, enforcing, realizing or obtaining payment of the Collateral or for the purpose of preserving any rights of any Persons in respect of the Collateral, (iii) responsible for any loss occasioned by any sale or other dealing with the Collateral or by the retention of or failure to sell or otherwise deal with the Collateral, or (iv) bound to protect the Collateral from depreciating in value or becoming worthless.

Section 5.06 Standards of Sale.

the Collateral may be disposed of in whole or in part;

(e)

the Collateral may be disposed of in any manner and on any terms necessary to avoid violation of applicable law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that the prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict the prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of the Collateral) or in order to obtain any required approval of the disposition (or of the resulting purchase) by any governmental or regulatory authority or official;

- 37 -

(f)

a disposition of the Collateral may be on such terms and conditions as to credit or otherwise as the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem advantageous; and

(g)

the Collateral Agent may establish an upset or reserve bid or price in respect of the Collateral.

Section 5.07 Dealings by Third Parties.

(a) No Person dealing with the Collateral Agent, any of the Secured Creditors or an agent or receiver is required to determine (i) whether the Security Interest has become enforceable, (ii) whether the powers which such Person is purporting to exercise have become exercisable, (iii) whether any money remains due to the Collateral Agent or the Secured Creditors by any Grantor, (iv) the necessity or expediency of the stipulations and conditions subject to which any sale or lease is made, (v) the propriety or regularity of any sale or other dealing by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Creditor with the Collateral, or (vi) how any money paid to the Collateral Agent or the Secured Creditors has been applied.

(b) Any bona fide purchaser of all or any part of the Collateral from the Collateral Agent or any receiver or agent will hold the Collateral absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity of redemption, of any Grantor, which each Grantor specifically waives (to the fullest extent permitted by law) as against any such purchaser together with all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which each Grantor has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted.

Section 5.08 Application of Proceeds.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall apply the Proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral pursuant to this Article 5, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as follows:

(i)

first, to the payment of all costs and expenses incurred by, and all indemnity and fee obligations owed to, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in connection with, or pursuant to, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any of the Secured Obligations, including all court costs and the fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document on behalf of any Grantor and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Credit Document;

(ii)

second, to the extent Proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 5.08(d) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Primary Obligations or, if the Proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

- 38 -

(iii)

third, to the extent Proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), inclusive, an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 5.08(d) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Obligations or, if the Proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(iv)

fourth, to the extent Proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following the termination of the security interests created pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the express provisions of Section 7.13(a) hereof, to the relevant Grantor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (y) “Primary Obligations” shall mean (i) in the case of the Credit Document Obligations, all principal of, premium, fees and interest on, all Loans and all Fees and (ii) in the case of the Other Obligations, all amounts due under each Secured Hedging Agreement (other than indemnities) and (z) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 5.08 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii) second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (x) if to the Lender Creditors, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender Creditors and (y) if to the Other Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each, a “Representative”) for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, directly to the Other Creditors.

- 39 -

(e) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 5.08, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Representative or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a determination (which the Administrative Agent, each Representative and the Other Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Lender Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has received written notice from a Lender Creditor or an Other Creditor to the contrary, the Administrative Agent and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding. Unless it has written notice from an Other Creditor, the Borrower or one or more other Credit Parties party thereto to the contrary, the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secured Hedging Agreements are in existence.

(f) It is understood that the Grantors shall each remain liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the Proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations.

The Collateral Agent shall have sole and absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such Proceeds, Moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

Section 5.09 Grant of License To Use Intellectual Property. Each Grantor shall grant to the Collateral Agent an irrevocable absolute power of attorney to sign, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any document which may be required by the Canadian Intellectual Property Office or similar registrar in order to effect an absolute assignment of all right, title and interest in any registered Intellectual Property to the extent constituting Collateral and each application for such registration, and record the same. With respect to any Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, by written notice to the relevant Grantor, take any or all of the following actions: (i) declare the entire right, title and interest of such Grantor in and to such Intellectual Property, vested in the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, in which event such rights, title and interest shall immediately vest, in the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise the power of attorney referred to in this Section 5.09 hereof to execute, cause to be acknowledged and notarized and record said absolute assignment with the applicable agency or registrar; (ii) take and use or sell such Intellectual Property; (iii) take and use or sell the goodwill of such

- 40 -

Grantor’s business symbolized by Trademarks constituting Collateral and the right to carry on the business and use the assets of such Grantor in connection with which such Trademarks or Domain Names constituting Collateral have been used; (iv) direct such Grantor to refrain, in which event such Grantor shall refrain, from using such Intellectual Property in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, and such Grantor shall execute such further documents that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to further confirm this and to transfer ownership of the Intellectual Property and registrations and any pending applications in the Canadian Intellectual Property Office or a foreign jurisdiction or applicable Domain Name registrar to the Collateral Agent and provide reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; and (v) each Grantor’s rights under any Patent License, Copyright License or Trademark License constituting Collateral shall enure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent, solely to the extent permitted by such license as it pertains to the Collateral, in each case solely during the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default. Upon and during the continuation of an Event of Default along with the intention to take enforcement action pursuant to the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License to effect the assignment of all such Grantor’s right, title and interest thereunder to the Collateral Agent or its designee. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest, is given for valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which is acknowledged) and survives, and does not terminate upon, the bankruptcy, dissolution, winding up or insolvency of the relevant Grantor.

Section 5.10 Securities Act. In view of the position of the Grantors in relation to the Pledged Stock, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under applicable securities laws (“Applicable Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Stock permitted hereunder. Each Grantor understands that compliance with the Applicable Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the Collateral Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Stock, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged Stock could dispose of the same. Each Grantor recognizes that in light of such restrictions and limitations the Collateral Agent may, with respect to any sale of the Pledged Stock, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Stock for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Stock or part thereof shall have been filed under the Applicable Securities Laws and (b) may approach and negotiate with a single potential purchaser to effect such sale. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favourable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Stock at a price that the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were

- 41 -

deferred until after registration as aforesaid or if more than a single purchaser were approached. The provisions of this Section 5.10 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Collateral Agent sells the Pledged Stock.

ARTICLE 6

Subordination

Section 6.01 Subordination. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, all of the Grantors’ rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and no Grantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor against the Borrower or any other Credit Party or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor for the payment of any of the Obligations, nor shall any Grantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Credit Party in respect of payments made by such Grantor hereunder (or paid with proceeds of collateral of such Grantor hereunder), in each case, until all amounts owing to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors on account of the Obligations are paid in full in cash, the Total Commitment has been terminated and the Secured Hedging Agreements have been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Grantor on account of such contribution or subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash or any of the Commitments or any Secured Hedging Agreements shall remain in effect, such amount shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required), to be held as collateral security for all of the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) of, or guaranteed by, such Grantor and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied against any Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine.

ARTICLE 7

Miscellaneous

Section 7.01 Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement) be in writing and given as provided in Section 13.03 of the Credit Agreement, provided that any communication or notice hereunder from the Collateral Agent to any Grantor upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing. All communications and notices hereunder to any Grantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 13.03 of the Credit Agreement.

- 42 -

Section 7.02 Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay by any Secured Creditor in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Secured Debt Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Secured Creditors hereunder and under the other Secured Debt Agreements are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision in this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall have been effected in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 7.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Secured Creditor may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Grantor in any case shall entitle any Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Collateral Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 13.12 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 7.03 Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) The parties hereto agree that the Collateral Agent (and any of its sub-agents) shall be entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 13.01 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Secured Debt Agreements but subject to any limitations on such indemnification obligations under such other Secured Debt Agreements, each Grantor agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent (and any of its sub-agents), each other Secured Creditor and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, affiliates, trustees and investment advisors (hereinafter in this Section 7.03 referred to individually as “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one primary counsel and one counsel in each relevant local jurisdiction for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing agreements or instruments contemplated hereby, or to the Collateral, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available with respect to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related out-of-pocket expenses (i) to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final decision), (ii) to the extent resulting from a material breach by such Indemnitee of its obligations or (iii) incurred in connection with disputes among any such Indemnitees, except for claims involving the Collateral Agent or any agent in its capacity as such.

- 43 -

(c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents. The provisions of this Section 7.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor. All amounts due under this Section 7.03 shall be payable within 15 days after written demand therefor.

Section 7.04 Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and enure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns and shall enure to the benefit of the other Secured Creditors and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 7.05 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties in the Credit Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Creditors and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Secured Debt Agreements and the making of any Loans or entering into of any Secured Hedging Agreements, regardless of any investigation made by any Secured Creditor or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Creditor may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under any Secured Debt Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments and the Secured Hedging Agreements have not been terminated.

Section 7.06 Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Grantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Grantor shall have been delivered to the Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Grantor and the Collateral Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall enure to the benefit of such Grantor, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest in this

- 44 -

Agreement or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except in accordance with Section 13.04 of the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Grantor hereunder.

Section 7.07 Severability. Any provision in this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavour in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 7.08 Right of Set-Off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Secured Creditor and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Secured Creditor or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any of and all the obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement owed to such Secured Creditor, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Creditor shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The applicable Secured Creditor shall notify the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section 7.08. The rights of each Secured Creditor under this Section 7.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which such Secured Creditor may have.

(b) The Collateral Agent and each Grantor hereto hereby irrevocably attorn and unconditionally submit, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction of the Province of Ontario sitting in Toronto, Ontario in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each Grantor irrevocably waives objection to the venue of any action or proceeding in such court or that such court provides an inconvenient forum. Nothing in this Section limits the right of the Collateral Agent to bring proceedings against a Grantor in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

(c) The Collateral Agent and each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 7.09.

- 45 -

(d) The Collateral Agent and each Grantor hereby irrevocably consent to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 7.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 7.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.10.

Section 7.12 Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Security Interest, the grant of a security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Secured Debt Agreement, any agreement with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Secured Debt Agreement or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations, or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement (other than a release of any Grantor in accordance with Section 7.13).

Section 7.13 Termination or Release.

(a) After the Termination Date, this Agreement shall terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation in Section 7.03 hereof, shall survive such termination) and the Collateral Agent, at the request and expense of the respective Grantor, will promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor a proper instrument

As used in this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Total Commitment under the Credit Agreement has been terminated, no Note under the Credit Agreement is outstanding, all Loans thereunder have been repaid in full, all Secured Hedging Agreements have been terminated and all Obligations then due and payable have been paid in full.

(b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of (to a Person other than a Credit Party) (x) at any time prior to the time at which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated, in connection with a sale or disposition permitted by Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement or is otherwise released at the direction of the Required Lenders (or all Lenders if required by Section 13.12 of the Credit Agreement) or (y) at any time thereafter, to the extent permitted by the other Secured Debt Agreements, and in the case of clauses (x) and (y), the proceeds of such sale or disposition (or from such release) are applied in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or such other Secured Debt Agreement, as the case may be, to the extent required to be so applied, the Collateral Agent, at the request and expense of such Grantor, will duly release from the security interest created hereby (and will execute and deliver such documentation, including financing change statements, termination or partial release statements and the like in connection therewith) and assign, transfer and deliver to such Grantor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold or otherwise disposed of, or released, and as may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement. Furthermore, in the event that all of the capital stock or other Equity Interests of one or more Grantors is sold or otherwise disposed of (in each case to a Person other than the Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof) or liquidated (x) at any time prior to the time at which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated, in compliance with the requirements of Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement (or such sale, other disposition or liquidation has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required by Section 13.12 of the Credit Agreement)) or (y) at any time thereafter, to the extent permitted by the other Secured Debt Agreements, and in the case of clauses (x) and (y), the proceeds of such sale, disposition or liquidation are applied in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to the extent applicable, such Grantor (and the Collateral at such time assigned by such Grantor pursuant hereto) shall, upon consummation of such sale or other disposition (except to the extent that such sale or disposition is to the Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof), be released from this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the sale of one or more Persons that own, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other Equity Interests of any Grantor shall be deemed to be a sale of such Grantor for the purposes of this Section 7.13(b)).

- 47 -

(c) At any time that a Grantor desires that the Collateral Agent take any action to acknowledge or give effect to any release of Collateral pursuant to the foregoing Section 7.13(a) or (b), such Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of such Grantor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 7.13(a) or (b). At any time that the Borrower or the respective Grantor desires that a Subsidiary of the Borrower which has been released from its guarantee pursuant to Article 2 hereunder be released hereunder as provided in the last sentence of Section 7.13(b), it shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of the Borrower and the respective Grantor stating that the release of the respective Grantor (and its Collateral) is permitted pursuant to such Section 7.13(b).

(d) The Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as the result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with (or which the Collateral Agent in good faith believed to be in accordance with) this Section 7.13.

Section 7.14 Additional Subsidiaries. Pursuant to Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement, each Wholly-Owned Canadian Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than Immaterial Subsidiaries) that was not in existence or, was not a Wholly-Owned Canadian Subsidiary or was an Immaterial Subsidiary on the date of the Credit Agreement, is required to enter in this Agreement as a Grantor upon becoming such a Wholly-Owned Canadian Subsidiary (or ceasing to be an Immaterial Subsidiary). Upon execution and delivery by the Collateral Agent and such Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Exhibit “I” hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor in this Agreement. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

Section 7.15 Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of such Grantor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof upon the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, which appointment is irrevocable (until all Loans and Notes (in each case together with interest thereon), Fees and all other Obligations (other than indemnities described in Section 7.03 and the other provisions of the Secured Debt Agreements which are not then due and payable) incurred hereunder and thereunder, are paid in full) and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, cheques, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or ▇▇▇▇ of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) to send verifications of Accounts to any Account Debtor; (e) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions

- 48 -

or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (f) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (g) to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Collateral Agent; and (h) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes, provided that nothing in this Agreement contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the Moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them in this Agreement, and neither they nor their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

Section 7.16 Pledgee Not a Partner or Limited Liability Company Member.

(a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company, unlimited liability company or partnership and neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company, unlimited liability company or partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Collateral Agent shall notify the relevant Grantor of its intention to become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of the entire interest owned by any Grantor in a limited liability company, unlimited liability company or partnership upon the enforcement of the Security Interest, and the Collateral Agent thereafter becomes the absolute owner thereof, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Collateral Agent, any other Secured Creditor and/or such Grantor.

(b) Except as provided in the last sentence of Section 7.16(a), the Collateral Agent, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company, unlimited liability company or partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to any Grantor or any limited liability company, unlimited liability company or partnership either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Collateral Agent shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company, unlimited liability company or partnership or any Grantor except as provided in the last sentence of Section 7.16(a).

Section 7.17 Amalgamation. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that in the event it amalgamates with any other corporation or corporations, it is the intention of the parties that the Security Interest (i) subject to Section 4.01, extends to: (A) all of the

- 49 -

property, assets and undertaking that any of the amalgamating corporations then owns, (B) all of the property, assets and undertaking that the amalgamated corporation thereafter acquires, (C) all of the property, assets and undertaking in which any of the amalgamating corporations then has any interest and (D) all of the property, assets and undertaking in which the amalgamated corporation thereafter acquires any interest; and (ii) secures the payment and performance of all debts, liabilities and obligations, present or future, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time or from time to time due or accruing due and owing by or otherwise payable by each of the amalgamating corporations and the amalgamated corporation to the Secured Creditors in any currency, however or wherever incurred, and whether incurred alone or jointly with another or others and whether as principal, guarantor or surety and whether incurred prior to, at the time of or subsequent to the amalgamation. The Security Interest attaches to the additional collateral at the time of amalgamation and to any collateral thereafter owned or acquired by the amalgamated corporation when such becomes owned or is acquired. Upon any such amalgamation, the defined term “Grantor” means, collectively, each of the amalgamating corporations and the amalgamated corporation, the defined term “Collateral” means all of the property, assets, undertaking and interests described in (i) above, and the defined term “Secured Obligations” means the obligations described in (ii) above.

Section 7.18 Further Assurances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto agree to comply with the requirements set forth in Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 7.19 Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with the provisions of Section 12 of the Credit Agreement, the provisions of which shall be deemed incorporated by reference herein as fully as if set forth in their entirety herein. Each Secured Creditor, by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, agrees to the provisions of Section 12 of the Credit Agreement, including as same apply to the actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder.

SUPPLEMENT NO. (this “Supplement”) dated as of [—], to the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement dated as of June 1, 2011 (as amended, amended and restated, waived, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”), among API NANOTRONICS SUB, INC. a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, API ELECTRONICS GROUP CORP., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, FILTRAN LIMITED, a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, API NANOTRONICS HOLDINGS CORP., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, EMCON2007 HOLDCO INC., a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada, EMCON EMANATION CONTROL LTD., a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada and each other Wholly-Owned Canadian Subsidiary of API Technologies Corp.

A. Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of June 1, 2011 (as amended, amended and restated, waived, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent.

B. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement and the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement referred to therein.

C. The Grantors have entered into the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans and the Other Creditors to enter into Secured Hedging Agreements as contemplated in the Credit Agreement. Section 7.14 of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement provides that additional Wholly-Owned Canadian Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become Grantors under the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary [in its own capacity (“—”) and as partner/general partner/managing partner for and on behalf of —] ([“—” and together with —,] (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Grantor under the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and the various Lenders and their affiliates to enter into Secured Hedging Agreements and as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued.

Accordingly, the Collateral Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 7.14 of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Grantor under the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Grantor and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement applicable to it as a Grantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor thereunder are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date). In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as security for the payment and performance in full of its Secured Obligations (as defined in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, a security interest in, and assigns, mortgages, charges, hypothecates and pledges to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, all of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) of the New Subsidiary. Each reference to a “Grantor” in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is hereby incorporated in this Agreement by reference.

SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally any by principles of equity.

SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Collateral Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature of the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent has executed a counterpart hereof. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

SECTION 4. The New Subsidiary hereby represents and warrants that set forth under its signature hereto is, as of the date hereof, (i) the true and correct legal name of the New Subsidiary, (ii) its jurisdiction of formation and (iii) the location of its chief executive office. The New Subsidiary hereby further represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, Schedule “I” hereto accurately sets forth all information which would have been required pursuant to the Schedules to the Canadian GCA Disclosure Letter referred to in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement had the New Subsidiary been a Grantor on the date of the execution and delivery of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (it being understood and agreed, however, that the information so furnished by the New Subsidiary is accurate as of the date of this Supplement rather than the date of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement).

- 2 -

SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 6. This supplement shall be governed by, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

SECTION 7. Any provision of this Supplement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof and in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement; the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavour in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 7.01 of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements of counsel for the Collateral Agent.

- 3 -

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent have duly executed this Supplement to the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
