applicable, any other applicable Competition Laws or Foreign Investment Laws as promptly as commercially reasonable prior to the Outside Date.

Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any such objection, requests or Proceeding, the Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates to, take any such actions as may be reasonably necessary to obtain any authorization, consent or approval of a Governmental Authority or to avoid or eliminate any impediments under the HSR Act, Competition Act (Canada), Investment Canada Act or any such other Competition Law or Foreign Investment Law so as to enable the consummation of the transactions hereby to occur no later than the Outside Date, including (i) agreeing to hold separate, sell, license, divest or otherwise dispose of any of the businesses or properties or assets of the Company or any of its respective controlled Affiliates, (ii) terminating, amending or assigning any existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations, (iii) terminating any venture or other arrangement, (iv) granting any right or commercial or other accommodation to, or entering into any contractual or other commercial relationship with, any Third Party, (v) imposing limitations on the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company or any of its controlled Affiliates with respect to how they own, retain, conduct or operate all or any portion of their respective businesses or assets, (vi) effectuating any other change to, or restructuring of, the Company or any of its controlled Affiliates, (vii) with respect to Investment Canada Act, entering into undertakings with a Governmental Authority customary and reasonable for a transaction similar to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (viii) opposing (A) any administrative or judicial Proceeding that is initiated or threatened to be initiated challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (including seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Authority vacated or reversed) and (B) any request for, the entry of, and seek to have vacated or terminated, any order that could reasonably be expected to restrain, prevent or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including in the case of either (A) or (B), by defending through litigation any Proceeding brought by any Person in any court or before any Governmental Authority, and pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal (and, in each case, entering into agreements with, or stipulating to the entry of an Order by, any Governmental Authority in connection with any of the foregoing and in the case of Proceedings by or with respect to the Company, by consenting to any such action), in each case, as may be required (x) by the applicable Governmental Authority in order to resolve such objections as such Governmental

-32-

Authority may have to such transactions under the HSR Act, Competition Act (Canada), Investment Canada Act or any other Applicable Law or (y) by any Governmental Authority in any Proceeding challenging such transactions as violative of the HSR Act, Competition Act (Canada), Investment Canada Act or any other Applicable Law, in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution, vacating, lifting, altering or reversal of, any order that has the effect of restricting, preventing or prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ix) not take any action (including entering into or consummating any contracts or arrangements for an acquisition, however structured, of any ownership interest, assets or rights in any Person) if such action would (A) reasonably be expected to make it materially more likely that there would arise any impediments under any applicable Competition Law or Foreign Investment Law that may be asserted by the FTC, the Antitrust Division, any State Attorney General or any other Governmental Authority to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable or (B) impose any material delay in the expiration of any waiting period or obtaining of any approval from any Governmental Authority applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the actions set forth in clauses (i) through (vii) of this ‎Section 4.2(1)(c) referred to collectively as, “Regulatory Actions”); provided, however, that nothing in this ‎Section 4.2 or otherwise in this Agreement shall require the Parent or its Subsidiaries or its controlled Affiliates to (and the Company and its respective Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates shall not, without the Parent's prior written consent) offer, propose, negotiate, commit or agree to, take or effect any Regulatory Action that would be, or would reasonably be expected to be, in the aggregate, material to the Parent and its Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries), taken as a whole after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, but for purposes of this ‎Section 4.2(1)(c), “material” shall mean material measured on a scale relative only to the size of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided, further, that a Regulatory Action shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Solely at the request of the Parent (and for the avoidance of doubt not without prior written consent from the Parent), the Company shall agree to divest, hold separate or otherwise take or commit to take any action that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the businesses, services or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that any such action shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

| (d) | Each Party shall (i) promptly notify the other Parties of any communication to that Party from the FTC, the Antitrust Division, any State Attorney General or any other Governmental Authority regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and, subject to Applicable Law, permit the other Parties to review, reasonably in advance, any written communication or presentation proposed to be submitted to any Governmental Authority with respect to the foregoing and consider in good faith any comments such other Party may provide thereto; (ii) not agree to participate in any meeting or discussion with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or inquiry concerning any competition or antitrust matters, Competition Law, or Foreign Investment Law in connection with this Agreement or the transactions

-33-

contemplated by this Agreement unless in each case it consults with the other Parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other Parties the opportunity to attend and participate thereat; and (iii) furnish the other Parties with copies of all filings and material correspondences and communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between them and their controlled Affiliates and their respective Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members or their respective staffs, on the other hand, with respect to any Competition Laws or Foreign Investment Laws in connection with this Agreement. The Parties will consult and cooperate with one another in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any Party relating to proceedings under any Competition Law or Foreign Investment Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and without limiting or expanding the rights and obligations set forth in this ‎Section 4.2, the Parent shall have the right to direct all matters with any Governmental Authority consistent with its obligations hereunder; provided that the Parent reasonably consults with, and considers in good faith, the input of the Company; provided, further, that the Parent shall not extend any waiting period under the HSR Act or under any other Competition Law or Foreign Investment Law or enter into any agreement with the FTC or the Antitrust Division or any other Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company, which, in the case of the extending of any such waiting period, shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any documents or other materials provided pursuant to this ‎Section 4.2(1)(d) may be redacted or withheld as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns, and to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company or other competitively sensitive material, and the Parties may, as each deems advisable, reasonably designate any material provided under this ‎Section 4.2(1)(d) as “outside counsel only material.” Such “outside counsel only materials” and the information contained therein shall be given only to legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such legal counsel to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient without the advance written consent of the Party providing such materials.

| (e) | The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates to, not take any action (including entering into or consummating any contracts or arrangements for an acquisition, however structured, of any ownership interest, assets or rights in any Person) if such action would (A) reasonably be expected to make it materially more likely that there would arise any impediments under any applicable Competition Law or Foreign Investment Law that may be asserted by the FTC, the Antitrust Division, any State Attorney General or any other Governmental Authority to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable or (B) impose any material delay in the expiration of any waiting period or obtaining of any approval from any Governmental Authority applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

| (3) | Each of the Company and the Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain all third party consents, waivers or approvals that are required to be provided or obtained under Material Contracts in connection with the Arrangement or in order to maintain the Material Contracts in full force and effect following the Effective Time, in each case, on terms that are reasonably satisfactory to the Parent, and without paying, and without committing the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Parent or its Subsidiaries or the Purchaser to pay, any consideration or incur any liability or obligation without the prior written consent of the Parent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (it being understood that the Company shall be under no obligation to agree to any such payment or incur any such liability or obligation in respect of any such consents, approvals or waivers).

-35-

counsel. The Company shall have the right to have its Representatives present in any investigation pursuant to this ‎Section 4.3, and such investigation shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Nothing in this ‎Section 4.3 shall require the Company to provide any access, or to disclose any (A) information if providing such access or disclosing such information would violate any Applicable Law (including Competition Laws and privacy laws), (B) communications between the Company and its investment bankers, attorneys, accountants and other advisors or (C) information protected by attorney-client privilege to the extent such privilege cannot be protected by the Company through exercise of its reasonable best efforts; provided that, in the case of clauses (A) and (C), the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure (or as much of it as possible) in a manner that would not violate any such Applicable Law or jeopardize the protection of the attorney-client privilege.

The Debt Offers will be conducted in compliance with the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, as applicable, and Applicable Law and the Company will not be required to cooperate with respect to any Debt Offer that is not in compliance with the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, as applicable, and Applicable Laws.

The dealer manager, solicitation agent, information agent, depositary or other agent retained in connection with any Debt Offer will be selected by the Parent or its Affiliates, retained by the Parent or its Affiliates, and their fees and out-of-pocket expenses will be paid directly by the Parent or its Affiliates.

The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Representatives (including counsel, financial advisors and auditors) and Subsidiaries to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to provide, all reasonable and customary cooperation as may be reasonably requested by the Parent in connection with the execution of Supplemental Indentures; provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing business or

operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries. If reasonably requested by the Parent or its Affiliates, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its legal counsel to provide, all customary certificates and legal opinions required by the trustee under the applicable Indenture in connection with the execution of any Supplemental Indentures to the extent (x) such certificates and legal opinions are required to be delivered before the Effective Time and (y) in the case of any such legal opinions, the trustee under the applicable Indenture requires an opinion of counsel to the Company thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Company or its legal counsel be required to give any certificate or opinion with respect to a Debt Offer that, in the opinion of the Company, its legal counsel or the trustee under the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture and/or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, as applicable, does not comply with Applicable Laws or the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture and/or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, as applicable, or would not be accurate in light of the facts and circumstances at the time delivered.

| (4) | If requested by the Parent or any of its Affiliates, in lieu of, in addition to or in combination with the Parent or its Affiliates commencing any Debt Offer for the 2028 Senior Notes and/or the 2030 Senior Notes, the Company will, to the extent permitted by the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, as applicable, (A) issue one or more conditional notices of optional redemption for all or a portion of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Senior Notes and/or the 2030 Senior Notes (which may be delivered at the Parent’s or Purchaser’s reasonable request in advance of the Effective Time so long as they are contingent upon the Effective Time (it being understood and agreed that they may also be contingent upon the occurrence of other events in addition to the Effective Time)), pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, respectively, and (B) take any other actions reasonably requested by the Parent or Purchaser to facilitate the satisfaction and discharge of the 2028 Senior Notes and/or the 2030 Senior Notes pursuant to the satisfaction and discharge provisions of the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, respectively, and the other provisions of the 2028 Senior Notes Indenture or the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, respectively, applicable thereto. If a conditional notice of optional redemption is given, the Parent or Purchaser will ensure that at the Effective Time, so long as the applicable conditions of such optional redemption are satisfied, the Company has all funds necessary in connection with any such optional redemption. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Representatives (including counsel, financial advisors and auditors) and Subsidiaries to provide, all reasonable and customary cooperation as may be reasonably requested by the Parent in connection with this Section 4.4(4) (provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing business or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries).

(5) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this ‎Section 4.4, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to (i) take or permit the taking of any action pursuant to Section 4.4(1), ‎Section 4.4(2), Section 4.4(3) or Section 4.4(4) that (A) would require the Company, its Subsidiaries or any Persons who are directors or officers of the Company or its Subsidiaries to pass resolutions or consents to approve or authorize the Financing or any Debt Offers or execute or deliver any certificate, document, instrument or agreement or agree to any change or modification of any existing certificate, document, instrument or agreement, in each case, that is effective prior to the Effective Time, or that would be effective if the Effective

Nothing contained in this ‎Section 4.4 or otherwise shall require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, prior to the Effective Time, to commence any Debt Offers or become an obligor under the Financing.

| (6) | The Parent and the Purchaser shall, on a joint and several basis, promptly upon written request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the Financing or any Debt Offer or satisfying its obligations under this ‎Section 4.4 (including in connection with any optional redemption), whether or not the Arrangement is consummated or this Agreement is terminated. The Parent and the Purchaser shall, on a joint and several basis, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, reasonable out-of-pocket costs, reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) suffered or incurred in connection with the Financing or any Debt Offer or optional redemption or otherwise in connection with any action taken by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives pursuant to this ‎Section 4.4 (other than the use of any information contained in any reports, schedules, forms, statements, prospectuses, registration statements and other documents filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company, or any information provided by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives in writing pursuant to this Section 4.4 or otherwise for use in connection with any Debt Offer or optional redemption), except in the event such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement are determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen out of, or resulted from, the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives.

-57-

in the case of a termination by the Company, immediately before and as a condition to such termination.

(2) If, (A) this Agreement is validly terminated by (1) the Parent or the Company pursuant to (x) ‎Section 7.2(1)(b)(iii) and at the time of such termination the Required Approval has not been received or (y) ‎Section 7.2(1)(b)(i) or (2) by the Parent pursuant to ‎Section 7.2(1)(d)(i), (B) following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to such valid termination of this Agreement, a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced or publicly disclosed and not publicly withdrawn or otherwise abandoned at least two Business Days prior to such termination of this Agreement, and (C) within 12 months following such valid termination of this Agreement, either an Acquisition Proposal is consummated or the Company enters into a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of an Acquisition Proposal, then the Company shall concurrently with such consummation or entry into a definitive agreement, pay, or cause to be paid, to the Parent the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Parent. For purposes of this ‎Section 8.2(2) all references to “twenty percent (20%)” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%).”

| (3) | If this Agreement is terminated by the Parent or the Company pursuant to (i) Section 7.2(1)(b)(iii) and, at the time of such termination, (A) any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1(5) (to the extent the applicable Order arises from or relates to Competition Laws or Foreign Investment Laws), Section 6.1(3) or Section 6.1(4) (such conditions in this clause (A), the “Applicable Conditions”) shall not have been satisfied, (B) a breach by the Company of its obligations under ‎Section 4.2 has not been the principal cause of the failure of any of the Applicable Conditions to not be satisfied and (C) all other conditions set forth in Sections ‎6.1 (including ‎Section 6.1(5) to the extent the applicable Order does not arise from or relate to Competition Laws or Foreign Investment Laws) and ‎6.2 shall have been satisfied (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Effective Time (assuming for the purpose of determining whether such other conditions set forth in Sections ‎6.1 and ‎6.2 have been satisfied in this clause, that all references to the "Effective Time" in such other conditions in Sections ‎6.1 and ‎6.2 shall be deemed to refer instead to the time of termination of this Agreement)) or waived in accordance with this Agreement, other than those conditions the failure of which to be satisfied was materially contributed to by a breach by Parent or Purchaser of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, or (ii) Section 7.2(1)(b)(ii) (to the extent the applicable Order arises from or relates to Competition Laws or Foreign Investment Laws), and, at the time of such termination, a breach by the Company of its obligations under ‎Section 4.2 has not been the principal cause of such Order or such imposition of such Order, then Parent shall, within three Business Days following any such termination, pay to the Company, in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the Company, $150,000,000 (such fee, the "Parent Termination Fee").

| (4) | Each Party agrees that (i) the agreements contained in this ‎Section 8.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the other Parties would not enter into this Agreement and (ii) in light of the difficulty of accurately determining actual damages with respect to the foregoing, the right to payment of the

-58-

Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee constitutes a reasonable estimate of the losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses that will be suffered by reason of any such valid termination of this Agreement and constitutes liquidated damages (and not a penalty) (and that neither such amount is excessive or unreasonably large, given the Parties’ intent and dealings with each other), and for greater certainty is not and is not intended to be an inducement, refund, reimbursement or assistance to either Party for entering into this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any claim to the contrary.

| (5) | Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Parent and the Purchaser agree that, except in the case of fraud or any material and willful breach of this Agreement by the Company, upon any valid termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Company Termination Fee is payable by the Company pursuant to this ‎Section 8.2 and such Company Termination Fee is paid in full, the receipt by the Parent of the Company Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages and the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent and the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and neither the Parent nor the Purchaser shall seek to obtain any recovery, judgment, or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, shareholders, Affiliates or Representatives in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) the Company agrees that, except in the case of fraud or any material and willful breach of this Agreement by the Parent or the Purchaser, upon any valid termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Parent Termination Fee is payable by the Parent pursuant to this ‎Section 8.2 and such fee is paid in full, the receipt by the Company of the Parent Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages and the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and the Company shall not seek to obtain any recovery, judgment, or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against Parent or any of Parent’s Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, stockholders, Affiliates or Representatives in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall the Company or Parent, as applicable, be required to pay the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, on more than one occasion. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this ‎Section 8.2 shall limit any remedies of the Parent or the Purchaser prior to any such valid termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee is payable pursuant to this ‎Section 8.2, including specific performance pursuant to ‎Section 8.6. In no event will any Party be entitled to receive both (x) a grant of specific performance which results in the consummation of the Effective Time as contemplated in this Agreement and (y) payment of the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable.

Section 8.5 Time of the Essence

Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

Section 8.6 Injunctive Relief

Each Party agrees that irreparable harm would occur for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by such Party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by such Party. It is accordingly agreed that each Party shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by any other Party, and to enforce compliance with the terms of this Agreement by any other Party without any requirement of the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party may be entitled at law or in equity. The Parties hereby waive any defense, and agree not to assert (or interpose as a defense or in opposition), that a remedy of speciﬁc performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable

-61-

for any reason, that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the Parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law.

Section 8.7 Company Disclosure Letter and SEC Document References.

The Parties agree that any reference in a particular section of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) (a) the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the Company that are contained in the corresponding section of this Agreement and (b) any other representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the Company that are contained in this Agreement, but only if the relevance of that reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) is reasonably apparent on its face. The mere inclusion of an item in the Company Disclosure Letter will not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, and the disclosure therein of any allegations with respect to any alleged breach, violation or default under any contractual or other obligation, or any law, is not an admission that such breach, violation or default has occurred. Headings and subheadings have been inserted in certain sections of the Company Disclosure Letter for convenience of reference only and will not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of such sections. The information provided in the Company Disclosure Letter is being provided solely for the purpose of making disclosures under this Agreement. In disclosing such information, the disclosing party does not waive, and expressly reserves any rights under, any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein.

Section 8.8 Third Party Beneficiaries

Except as provided in ‎Section 4.8, and which, without limiting their terms, are intended as stipulations for the benefit of the Third Parties mentioned in such provisions (such Third Parties referred to in this ‎Section 8.8 as the "Indemnified Persons") and except for the rights of the Company Shareholders to receive the aggregate consideration following the Effective Time in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including ‎Section 8.2(5)) and the right of the Company, on behalf of the holders of Common Shares, holders of RSUs, holders of PRSUs and holders of SARs (each of which are third party beneficiaries of this Agreement to the extent required for this provision to be enforceable), to pursue specific performance as set forth in ‎Section 8.6 or, if specific performance is not sought or granted as a remedy, damages (which damages the parties acknowledge and agree will not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out of pocket costs and may include the benefit of the bargain lost by such holders (including the premium reflected in the aggregate consideration payable by the Purchaser pursuant to the Arrangement, which was specifically negotiated by the Board of Directors on behalf of such holders and taking into consideration all other relevant matters)) in the event of a breach by Parent of this Agreement, it being agreed that in no event shall any such holder be entitled to enforce any of its rights, or any of Parent’s or Purchaser’s obligations, under this Agreement in the event of any such breach, but rather the Company shall have the sole and exclusive right to do so, as agent for such holders, the Parties intend that this Agreement will not benefit or create any right or cause of action in favor of any Person, other than the Parties and that no Person, other than the Parties, shall be entitled to rely on the provisions of this Agreement in any Proceeding or other forum.

-62-

Section 8.9 Waiver

No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar). No waiver will be binding unless executed in writing by the Party to be bound by the waiver. A Party's failure or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that right. A single or partial exercise of any right will not preclude a Party from any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right.

Section 8.10 Entire Agreement

Any purported assignment, delegation or other transfer without such consent or otherwise consistent with the foregoing sentence shall be void.

Section 8.12 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or any court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

The Parties agree that electronic signatures will have the same legal effect as original signatures and that the Parties shall be entitled to rely upon delivery of an executed electronic copy of this Agreement, and such executed electronic copy shall be legally effective to create a valid and binding agreement between the Parties.

| (b) | ultimately are not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for such Common Shares, shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a Company Shareholder that is not a Dissenting Shareholder and shall be entitled to receive only the Consideration contemplated by Section 2.3(g) hereof that such Dissenting Shareholder would have received pursuant to the Arrangement if such Dissenting Shareholder had not exercised its Dissent Rights.

| 3.2 | Recognition of Dissenting Shareholders

| (a) | In no circumstances shall the Purchaser, the Parent or the Company or any other Person be required to recognize a Person exercising Dissent Rights in respect of any Common Shares unless such Person is the registered holder of those Common Shares as of the Record Date in respect of which such rights are sought to be exercised.

| (b) | For greater certainty, in no case shall the Purchaser, the Parent or the Company or any other Person be required to recognize Dissenting Shareholders as holders of Common Shares in respect of which Dissent Rights have been validly exercised after the Effective

Time, and the names of such Dissenting Shareholders shall be removed from the Company's central securities register in respect of those Common Shares at the same time as the event described in Section 2.3(f) occurs.

| (c) | Upon surrender to the Depositary for cancellation of a certificate or DRS Advice which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Common Shares that were transferred pursuant to Section 2.3(f) or Section 2.3(g), together with a duly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal and such additional documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require, such Company Shareholder shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Depositary shall deliver to such Company Shareholder the Consideration which such holder has the right to receive under the Plan of Arrangement for such Common Shares, without interest, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.3, and any certificate or DRS Advice so surrendered shall forthwith thereafter be cancelled.

| (d) | Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 4.1, each certificate or DRS Advice that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Common Shares (other than Common Shares in respect of which Dissent Rights have been validly exercised and not withdrawn), shall be deemed after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Consideration which the holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 4.1, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.3. Any such certificate or DRS Advice formerly representing Common Shares not duly surrendered on or before the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date shall cease to represent a claim by or interest of any former Company Shareholder of any kind or nature against or in the Company, the Purchaser or the Parent.

| (f) | No former holder of Common Shares or Company Equity Awards, and no participants in the Employee Share Purchase Plan, shall be entitled (following the completion of the Plan of Arrangement) to receive any consideration with respect to such securities other than the cash payment, if any, which such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section ‎2.3 and this Section 4.1 and, for greater certainty, no such holder shall be entitled to receive any interest, dividends, premium or other payment in connection therewith, other than, in respect of Common Shares, any declared but unpaid dividends with a record date prior to the Effective Date. No dividend or other distribution declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to any securities of the Company with a record date on or after the Effective Date shall be delivered to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate or DRS Advice which, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented outstanding Common Shares that were transferred pursuant to Section ‎2.3.

| 4.2 | Lost Certificates

In the event any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Common Shares that were transferred pursuant to Section 2.3 shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Consideration that such Company Shareholder has the right to receive in accordance with Section 2.3 and such Company Shareholder's Letter of Transmittal. When authorizing such payment for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Person to whom such Consideration is to be delivered shall, as a condition precedent to the payment of such Consideration, give a bond satisfactory to the Parent and the Depositary (each acting reasonably) in such sum as the Parent may direct (acting reasonably), or otherwise indemnify the Company, the Purchaser, the Parent and the Depositary in a manner satisfactory to the Parent and the Depositary (acting reasonably) against any claim that may be made against the Company, the Purchaser, the Parent or the Depositary with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

Each of the Purchaser, the Parent, the Company, any Subsidiaries of the foregoing, or the Depositary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable under this Plan of Arrangement to any Person, such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such payment under the Tax Act, the U.S. Tax Code or any provision of any Applicable Law and shall remit such deducted and withheld amount to the appropriate Governmental Authority. To the extent that amounts are so properly deducted and withheld and remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Plan of Arrangement as having been paid to such Person, in respect of which such deduction and withholding and remittance was made.

| 4.4 | No Liens

Any exchange or transfer of securities pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement shall be free and clear of any Liens or other claims of third parties of any kind.

| 4.5 | Calculations

All aggregate amounts of cash consideration to be received under this Plan of Arrangement will be calculated to the nearest cent ($0.01). All calculations and determinations made in good faith by the Purchaser, the Parent, the Company, any of the Subsidiaries of the foregoing, or the Depositary, as applicable, for the purposes of this Plan of Arrangement shall be conclusive, final and binding.

The Debt Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and is a valid and binding obligation of the Parent and, to the Knowledge of the Parent, the other parties thereto, enforceable against the Parent and, to the Knowledge of the Parent, the other parties thereto in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity).

Assuming the Financing is funded at or immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with the Debt Commitment Letter and the Arrangement is completed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement following satisfaction of the conditions precedent thereto, the aggregate proceeds of the Financing (after giving effect to any market flex provisions), together with any cash on hand, available lines of credit and other sources of immediately available funds, will be in an amount sufficient to enable the Parent to make the cash portion of the payment of the aggregate Consideration payable by the Purchaser pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement and any other amounts to be paid by the Parent or the Purchaser hereunder or under the Debt Commitment Letter. The Parent acknowledges and agrees that the availability of funds (including the Financing) will not be a condition to the obligation of the Parent or the Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
