proposed effective date of such liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or other distribution; and

(ii)

immediately, upon the earlier of: (i) receipt by Patch of notice of; and (ii) Patch otherwise becoming aware of any threatened or instituted claim, suit, petition or other proceedings with respect to the involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Patch or to effect any other distribution of assets of Patch among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs.

(b)	Such notice shall include a brief description of the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Patch Shares provided for in section 4.11(c).

(c)

In order that the Shareholders will be able to participate on a pro rata basis with the holders of Patch Shares in the distribution of assets of Patch in connection with a Liquidation Event, on the fifth Business Day prior to the effective date of a Liquidation Event (the “Liquidation Event Effective Date”) all of the then outstanding Exchangeable Shares shall be automatically exchanged for Patch Shares. To effect such automatic exchange, Patch shall purchase each Exchangeable Share outstanding on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date and held by Shareholders, and each Shareholder shall sell the Exchangeable Shares held by it at such time, for a purchase price per share equal to: (a) the Current Market Price of one (1) Patch Share on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, which shall be satisfied in full by Patch delivering or causing to be delivered to the Shareholder one Patch Share; plus (b) an additional amount equivalent to the full amount of all dividends declared and unpaid on each such Exchangeable Share and all dividends declared on Patch Shares which have not been declared on such Exchangeable Shares in accordance with Article 3 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions (provided that if the record date for any such declared and unpaid dividends occurs on or after the day of closing of such purchase and sale the purchase price shall not include such additional amount equivalent to such declared and unpaid dividends). In connection with such automatic exchange, Patch will provide to the Trustee and the Shareholders an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the calculation of the purchase price for each Exchangeable Share, together with a notice of the anticipated Liquidation Event Effective Date.

(d)

On the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, the closing of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated by the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Patch Shares shall be deemed to have occurred, and each Shareholder shall be deemed to have transferred to Patch all of the Shareholder’s right, title and interest in and to its Exchangeable Shares and the related interest in the Trust Estate and shall cease to be a Shareholder of such Exchangeable Shares and Patch shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Shareholder Patch Shares deliverable upon the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Patch Shares and shall deliver to the Shareholder a cheque for the balance, if any, of the total purchase price for such Exchangeable Shares. Concurrently with such Shareholder ceasing to be a Shareholder, the Shareholder shall be considered and deemed for all purposes to be the holder of Patch Shares issued or transferred to it pursuant to the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Patch Shares and the certificates held by the Shareholder previously representing the Exchangeable Shares exchanged by the Shareholder with Patch pursuant to such automatic exchange shall thereafter be deemed to represent Patch Shares issued, or caused to be transferred, by Patch to the Shareholder pursuant to such automatic exchange. Upon the request of a Shareholder and the surrender by the Shareholder of Exchangeable Share certificates deemed to represent Patch Shares, duly endorsed in blank and accompanied by such instruments of transfer as Patch may reasonably require,

Patch shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Shareholder certificates representing Patch Shares of which the Shareholder is the holder.

4.12	WITHHOLDING RIGHTS

Patch and the Trustee shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Shareholder such amounts as Patch or the Trustee is required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the “Code”), the Income Tax Act (Canada) or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Shareholder of the shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. To the extent that the amount so required or permitted to be deducted or withheld from any payment to a Shareholder exceeds the cash portion of the consideration otherwise payable to the Shareholder, Patch or the Trustee is hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of at fair market value such portion of the consideration as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to Patch or the Trustee, as the case may be, in order to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and shall account to the relevant Shareholder for any balance of such sale proceeds.

Subject to (ii), below, Patch and Exchangeco shall be entitled to participate at their own expense in the defence and, if Patch and Exchangeco so elect at any time after receipt of such notice, either of them may assume the defence of any suit brought to enforce any such claim. In the event Patch and/or Exchangeco assume the defence of the Trustee, no settlement of any claim shall be entered into without the prior approval of the Trustee; and the Trustee shall have the right to re-assume the defence of any suit if Patch or Exchangeco fail to actively continue such defence so assumed.
