Ladies and Gentlemen:

Introductory. Quebecor Media Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of Québec (the "Company"), proposes to issue and sell to the several Initial Purchasers named in Schedule A (the "Initial Purchasers"), acting severally and not jointly, the respective amounts set forth in such Schedule A of U.S.$700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company's 7³/4% Senior Notes due March 15, 2016 (the "Securities"). Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC, TD Securities (USA) LLC, Scotia Capital (USA) Inc., BMO Capital Markets Corp., RBC Capital Markets Corporation, NBF Securities (USA) Corp. and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. have agreed to act as the Initial Purchasers in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities.

The Securities will be issued pursuant to an indenture, to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2) (the "Indenture"), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). Securities issued in book-entry form will be issued in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company (the "Depositary") pursuant to a DTC Agreement, to be dated prior to the Closing Date (the "DTC Agreement"), between the Company and the Depositary.

The holders of the Securities will be entitled to the benefits of a registration rights agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Date (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), between the Company and the Initial Purchasers, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, pursuant to which the Company will agree to file, within 120 days of the Closing Date, a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") registering the Exchange Securities (as defined below) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act," which term, as used herein, includes the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder).

The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on the terms and in the manner set forth herein and in the Pricing Disclosure Package (as defined below) and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to purchasers (the "Subsequent Purchasers") at any time after the time this Agreement is executed by the parties hereto (the "Execution Time"). The Securities are to be offered and sold to or through the Initial Purchasers without being registered with the Commission under the Securities Act, in reliance upon exemptions therefrom. The terms of the Securities and the Indenture will require that investors that acquire Securities expressly agree that Securities may only be resold or otherwise transferred, after the date hereof, if such Securities are registered for sale under the Securities Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available (including the exemptions afforded by Rule 144A ("Rule 144A") or Regulation S ("Regulation S") thereunder).

The Securities will be offered and sold in one or more provinces of Canada, without being qualified under a prospectus in any Canadian jurisdiction in reliance on one or more of the prospectus and registration exemptions under National Instrument 45-106 — Prospectus and Registration Exemptions (such instrument being titled in Quebec Regulation 45-106 respecting prospectus and registration exemptions) ("NI 45-106").

The Company has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser, electronic copies of a Preliminary Offering Memorandum, dated as of September 26, 2007, and has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser, electronic copies of a Pricing Supplement, dated the date hereof and in the form attached as Annex II hereto (the "Pricing Supplement"), describing the terms of the Securities, each for use by such Initial Purchaser in connection with its solicitation of offers to purchase the Securities. The Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Pricing Supplement are herein referred to as the "Pricing Disclosure Package." Promptly after the Execution Time, the Company will prepare and deliver to each Initial Purchaser a final offering memorandum dated the date hereof (the "Final Offering Memorandum").

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the Initial Purchasers as follows:

SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties. The Company hereby represents, warrants and covenants to each Initial Purchaser as follows (references in this Section 1 to the "Offering Memorandum" are to (x) the Pricing Disclosure Package in the case of representations and warranties made as of the date hereof and (y) the Final Offering Memorandum in the case of representations and warranties made as of the Closing Date):

(a) No Registration Required. Subject to compliance by the Initial Purchasers with the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 hereof and with the procedures set forth in Section 7 hereof, it is not necessary in connection with the offer, sale and delivery of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers and to each Subsequent Purchaser in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and the Offering Memorandum to register the Securities under the Securities Act, to qualify, by prospectus or otherwise, the distribution of the Securities under the securities laws of any jurisdiction in Canada, including without limitation the Securities Act (Québec) and the rules and regulations thereunder, or, until such time as the Exchange Securities are issued pursuant to an effective registration statement, to qualify the Indenture under the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 0000 (xxx "Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxx," which term, as used herein, includes the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder).

(b) No Integration of Offerings or General Solicitation. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, solicited any offer to buy or offered to sell, and will not, directly or indirectly, solicit any offer to buy or offer to sell, in the United States or to any United States citizen or resident, any security which is or would be integrated with the sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the Securities to be registered under the Securities Act. None of the Company, its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act (each, an "Affiliate")), or any person acting on any of their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company makes no representation or warranty) has engaged or will engage, in connection with the offering of the Securities, in any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 under the Securities Act. With respect to those Securities sold in reliance upon Regulation S, (i) none of the Company, its Affiliates or any person acting on their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company makes no representation or warranty) has engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts within the meaning of Regulation S and (ii) each of the Company, its Affiliates and any person acting on their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company makes no representation or warranty) has complied and will comply with the offering restrictions set forth in Regulation S.

(c) No Solicitation in Canada. Neither the Company, nor any person acting on its behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company makes no representation or warranty), has, directly or indirectly, (i) made offers or sales of any security, or solicited offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require the distribution of the Securities in any Canadian province to be qualified by a prospectus filed in accordance with the securities laws, and the regulations thereunder, of, and the applicable published rules, policy statements, blanket orders, instruments, rulings and notices of the securities regulatory authorities in, such province (the "Canadian Securities Laws") or (ii) has engaged in any advertisement of the Securities in any printed media of general and regular paid circulation, radio or television or any other form of advertising in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities in such province.

(e) The Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum. The Pricing Disclosure Package, as of the Execution Time, does not, and the Final Offering Memorandum will not, as of its date or as of the Closing Date, include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that this representation, warranty and agreement shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser through Citigroup Global Markets Inc. expressly for use in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum. The Pricing Disclosure Package contains, and the Final Offering Memorandum will contain, all the information specified in, and meeting the requirements of, Rule 144A. The Company has not distributed and will not distribute, prior to the later of the Closing Date and the completion of the Initial Purchasers' distribution of the Securities, any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities other than the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum.

(f) The Purchase Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will agree to file with the Commission, under the circumstances set forth therein, (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to another series of debt securities of the Company with terms substantially identical to the Securities (the "Exchange Securities") to be offered in exchange for the Securities (the "Exchange Offer"); and (ii) to the extent required by the Registration Rights Agreement, a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act relating to the resale by certain holders of the Securities, and in each case, to use its best efforts to cause such registration statements to be declared effective.

(h) The DTC Agreement. At the Closing Date, the DTC Agreement will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and will be a valid and binding agreement of, the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles.

(j) Authorization of the Indenture. The Indenture has been duly authorized by the Company and, at the Closing Date, will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and will constitute a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as the

enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles. The Indenture complies with all applicable provisions of the laws of Canada or the laws of any province or territory thereof, including without limitation, Canadian Securities Laws, and no registration, filing or recording of the Indenture under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof is necessary in order to preserve or protect the validity or enforceability of the Indenture or the Securities issued thereunder.

(k) Description of the Securities, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement. The Securities, the Exchange Securities, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement will conform in all material respects to the respective statements relating thereto contained in the Offering Memorandum.

(l) Statements in the Offering Memorandum.

Changes in government regulation could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.", "Description of Certain Indebtedness," "Description of the Notes," "Business — Intellectual Property," "Business — Litigation," "Regulation," "Management — Certain Relationships and Related Transactions," "Notice to Investors," "Notice to Canadian Investors," "Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations," and "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations," insofar as such statements constitute matters of law, summaries of legal matters, documents or legal proceedings, or legal conclusions, fairly present and summarize, in all material respects, the matters referred to therein.

(m) No Material Adverse Change. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Offering Memorandum, subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Offering Memorandum: (i) there has been no material adverse change, or any development that could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, operations or prospects, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, of the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one entity (any such change is called a "Material Adverse Change"); (ii) the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one entity, have not incurred any material liability or obligation, indirect, direct or contingent, not in the ordinary course of business nor entered into any material transaction or agreement not in the ordinary course of business; and (iii) there has been no dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by the Company or, except for dividends paid to the Company or other subsidiaries, any of its subsidiaries on any class of capital stock or repurchase or redemption by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any class of capital stock.

(n) Independent Accountants. KPMG LLP, who have expressed their opinion with respect to the annual financial statements (which term as used in this Agreement includes the related notes thereto) of the Company and its subsidiaries included in the Offering Memorandum are independent with the meaning of the Rules of Professional conduct of the Ordre des comptable agréés du Québec and are independent public or certified public accountants within the meaning of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and any non-audit services provided by KPMG LLP to the Company have been approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.

(o) Preparation of the Financial Statements. The consolidated financial statements of the Company, together with the related notes, included in the Offering Memorandum present fairly the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of and at the dates indicated and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods specified. Such financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in Canada applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, except as may be expressly stated in the related notes thereto, and with respect to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been reconciled to generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States in accordance with Item 17 of Form 20-F under the Exchange Act. The financial data set forth in the Offering Memorandum under the captions "Summary — Summary Consolidated Financial Data" and "Selected Consolidated Financial Data" fairly present the information set forth therein on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements contained in the Offering Memorandum. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of the Company and the related notes thereto included under the caption "Summary — Summary Consolidated Financial Data," "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements" and elsewhere in the Offering Memorandum present fairly the information contained therein, have been prepared in accordance with the Commission's rules and guidelines with respect to pro forma financial statements (except that

they have not been reconciled to generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States) and have been properly presented on the bases described therein, and the assumptions used in the preparation thereof are reasonable and the adjustments used therein are appropriate to give effect to the transactions and circumstances referred to therein.

(p) Material Subsidiaries. The subsidiaries of the Company listed on Schedule B hereto (the "Material Subsidiaries") include all of the subsidiaries of the Company that are material to the Company's business, operations, cash flows and financial position.

(q) Incorporation and Good Standing of the Company and its Material Subsidiaries. Each of the Company and its Material Subsidiaries has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Offering Memorandum and, in the case of the Company, to enter into and perform its obligations under each of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement, the Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Indenture. Each of the Company and its Material Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change. All of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each Material Subsidiary of the Company has been duly authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and nonassessable, and to the extent of its ownership, directly or through subsidiaries, is owned by the Company free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or claim, other than as set forth under the caption "Description of Certain Indebtedness" in the Offering Memorandum. The Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any corporation, association or other entity other than the subsidiaries and other entities listed in Schedule C hereto, and except as shown on Schedule C, the Company owns 100% of each such subsidiary or entity.

(r) Capitalization and Other Capital Stock Matters. At June 30, 2007, on a consolidated basis, after giving pro forma effect to the issuance of the Securities and the application of the net proceeds therefrom as described under the caption "Capitalization" in the Offering Memorandum, the Company would have an authorized and outstanding capitalization as set forth in the Offering Memorandum under the column marked "Pro Forma" under the caption "Capitalization" (other than for subsequent issuances of capital stock, if any, pursuant to employee benefit plans described in the Offering Memorandum or upon exercise of outstanding options described in the Offering Memorandum). All of the outstanding common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and have been issued in compliance with applicable federal, state or provincial securities laws. None of the outstanding Common Shares were issued in violation of any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities of the Company. There are no authorized or outstanding options, warrants, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other rights to purchase, or equity or debt securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any capital stock of the Company or any of its subsidiaries other than those accurately described in the Offering Memorandum. The description of the Company's Stock Option Plan and the options or other rights granted thereunder, set forth in the Offering Memorandum, accurately and fairly describes such plan, arrangement, options and rights.

(s) Non-Contravention of Existing Instruments; No Further Authorizations or Approvals Required. (i) Neither the Company nor any of its Material Subsidiaries is in violation of its charter or by-laws or any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree applicable to the Company or any Material Subsidiary and (ii) neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in default (or, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, would be in default) ("Default") under any indenture, mortgage, loan or credit agreement, note, contract, franchise, lease or other instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound (including, without limitation, the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 28, 2000, as amended and supplemented, among Vidéotron Ltée, RBC Dominion Securities Inc., Royal Bank of Canada and the Co-arrangers and lenders thereto (the "Vidéotron Credit Agreement"), the Indenture, dated as of October 8, 2003, as amended and supplemented, among Vidéotron Ltée, the subsidiary guarantors signatory thereto and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the "First Vidéotron Indenture"), the Indenture, dated as of September 16, 2005, among Vidéotron Ltée, the subsidiary guarantors signatory thereto and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National

The Company's execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement and the Indenture, and the issuance and delivery of the Securities or the Exchange Securities and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and by the Offering Memorandum (collectively the "Transactions") have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and (i) will not result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or by-laws of the Company or any Material Subsidiary, (ii) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or Default or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event (as defined below) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or its subsidiaries pursuant to, or require the consent of any other party to, any Existing Instrument, except for such conflicts, breaches, Defaults, liens, charges or encumbrances as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change or except for such consents as have been obtained and (iii) will not result in any violation of any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree applicable to the Company or its subsidiaries, except for such violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.

The Company agrees that it will not and will cause its Affiliates not to make any offer or sale of securities of the Company of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of "integration" referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the sale of the Securities by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or (iii) the resale of the Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(2) thereof or by Rule 144A or by Regulation S thereunder or otherwise.

Each such offer or sale has and shall only be made to (i) persons in the United States whom the offeror or seller reasonably believes to be qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) with respect to whom the seller has taken reasonable steps to insure that the purchaser is aware that such sale is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, or (ii) non-U.S. persons outside the United States to whom the offeror or seller reasonably believes offers and sales of the Securities may be made in reliance upon Regulation S under the Securities Act, upon the terms and conditions set forth in Annex I hereto, which Annex I is hereby expressly made a part hereof.

No general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Rule 502 under the Securities Act) has or will be used in the United States in connection with the offering of the Securities.

(c) Restrictions on Transfer. Upon original issuance by the Company, and until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Securities (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, other than the Exchange Securities) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

"THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION.

Following the sale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers pursuant to the terms of this Section 7 and in accordance with applicable securities laws, the Initial Purchasers shall not be liable or responsible to the Company hereunder for any losses, damages or liabilities suffered or incurred by the Company,

including any losses, damages or liabilities under the Securities Act, arising from or relating to any resale or transfer of any Security.

SECTION 8. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of the Initial Purchasers. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which such Initial Purchaser or such controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal, provincial, territorial or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum or any other written information used by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and to reimburse each Initial Purchaser and each such controlling person for any and all expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by Citigroup Global Markets Inc.) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser or such controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Initial Purchasers expressly for use in the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Indemnification of the Company and its Directors and Officers. Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its directors and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which the Company or any such director, or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal, provincial, territorial or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Initial Purchaser), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or arises out of or is based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which there were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Initial Purchasers expressly for use therein; and to reimburse the Company, or any such director or controlling person for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Initial Purchasers have furnished to the Company by and on behalf of the Initial Purchasers expressly for use in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the first sentence of the third paragraph and the eleventh and twelfth paragraphs under the caption "Plan of Distribution" in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum regarding market-making and stabilization, respectively; and the Initial Purchasers confirm that such statements are correct. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 8 or to the extent it is not prejudiced as a proximate result of such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party's election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel), approved by the indemnifying party (Citigroup Global Markets Inc. in the case of Section 8(b)), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.

(d) Settlements. The indemnifying party under this Section 8 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, if such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of a request for consent to such settlement and a request for reimbursement of the related fees and expenses and such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include any statements as to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

SECTION 9. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with

the statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties herein which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, and the total discount received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or any such inaccurate or alleged inaccurate representation or warranty relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in Section 8 with respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 9; provided, however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any action for which notice has been given under Section 8 for purposes of indemnification.

The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 9.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the commission received by such Initial Purchaser in connection with the Securities distributed by it. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers' obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective commitments as set forth opposite their names in Schedule A. For purposes of this Section 9, each director, officer and employee of an Initial Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each director of the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

SECTION 10. Termination of this Agreement. Prior to the Closing Date, this Agreement may be terminated by the Initial Purchasers by notice given to the Company if at any time trading in securities generally on either the Nasdaq Global Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the Toronto Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such stock exchanges by the Commission, the NASD or any applicable securities regulatory authority; (ii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any of Canadian, U.S. federal or New York authorities; (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or any crisis or calamity, or any change in the United States, Canadian or international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States', Canada's or international political, financial or economic conditions, as in the judgment of the Initial Purchasers is material and adverse and makes it impracticable to market the Securities in the manner and on the terms described in the Pricing Disclosure Package or to enforce contracts for the sale of securities; (iv) in the judgment of the Initial Purchasers there shall have occurred any Material Adverse Change; or the Company shall have sustained a loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity of such character as in the judgment of the Initial Purchasers may interfere materially with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured. Any termination pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of (a) the Company to any Initial Purchaser, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Sections 4 and 6 hereof, (b) any Initial Purchaser to the Company, or (c) of any party hereto to any

other party except that the provisions of Section 8 and Section 9 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.

SECTION 11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, of its respective officers and of the several Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, the Company or any of their partners, officers or directors or any controlling person, as the case may be, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 14. Partial Unenforceability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other Section, paragraph or provision hereof.

unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

SECTION 15. Governing Law Provisions. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE.

(a) Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby ("Related Proceedings") may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York or the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York (collectively, the "Specified Courts"), and each party irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The Company irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System, as its agent to receive service of process or other legal summons for purposes of any such suit, action or proceeding that may be instituted in the Specified Courts. Service of any process, summons, notice or document upon such agent, and written notice of said service by mail to such party's address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in any such court that any such suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b) Waiver of Immunity. With respect to any Related Proceeding, each party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all immunity (whether on the basis of sovereignty or otherwise) from jurisdiction, service of process, attachment (both before and after judgment) and execution to which it might otherwise be entitled in the Specified Courts, and with respect to any proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of the Specified Courts (a "Related Judgment"), each party waives any such immunity in the Specified Courts or any other court of competent jurisdiction, and will not raise or claim or cause to be pleaded any such immunity at or in respect of any such Related Proceeding or Related Judgment, including, without limitation, any immunity pursuant to the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, as amended.

(c) Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than U.S. dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Initial Purchasers could purchase U.S. dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Company in respect of any sum due from it to any Initial Purchaser shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any currency other than U.S. dollars, not be discharged until the first business day, following receipt by such Initial Purchaser of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) such Initial Purchaser may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. dollars with such other currency; if the U.S. dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Initial Purchaser against such loss. If the U.S. dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Initial Purchaser hereunder, such Initial Purchaser agrees to pay the Company an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Initial Purchaser hereunder.

SECTION 16. Default of One or More of the Several Initial Purchasers. If any one or more of the several Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on the Closing Date and such failure or refusal shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations hereunder, and the aggregate number of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated, severally, in the proportions that the number of Securities set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A bears to the aggregate number of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as may be

specified by such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall so fail or refuse to purchase Securities and the aggregate number of Securities with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of Securities to be purchased on the Closing Date, and arrangements satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company to any other party except that the provisions of Section 4, Section 8 and Section 9 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Final Offering Memorandum or any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser of its liability, if any, to the Company or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

As used in this Agreement, the term "Initial Purchaser" shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Initial Purchaser under this Section 16. Any action taken under this Section 16 shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.

SECTION 17. Arms Length Relationship. The Company hereby acknowledges that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm's-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers and any affiliate through which it may be acting, on the other, (b) the Initial Purchasers are acting as principal and not as an agent or fiduciary of the Company and (c) the Company's engagement of the Initial Purchasers in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, the Company agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Initial Purchasers has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters). The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Initial Purchasers have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

SECTION 18. General Provisions. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement and supersedes all prior written or oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements, understandings and negotiations with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each one of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement may not be amended or modified unless in writing by all of the parties hereto, and no condition herein (express or implied) may be waived unless waived in writing by each party whom the condition is meant to benefit. The Table of Contents and the section headings herein are for the convenience of the parties only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to the Company the enclosed copies hereof, whereupon this instrument, along with all counterparts hereof, shall become a binding agreement in accordance with its terms.

		Very truly yours,

EXHIBIT A

Opinion of U.S. counsel for the Company to be delivered pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Purchase Agreement.

(i) Assuming the due authorization by the Company, the Purchase Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company (to the extent that execution and delivery are governed by the law of the State of New York).

(ii) Assuming the due authorization of the Indenture by the Company, the Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Company (to the extent that execution and delivery are governed by the law of the State of New York), and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee, the Indenture constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, preference or other laws affecting or relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

(iii) Assuming the due authorization by the Company, the Registration Rights Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by (to the extent that execution and delivery are governed by the law of the State of New York), and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Initial Purchasers, is a valid and binding agreement of, the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, preference or other laws affecting or relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). Insofar as provisions in the Registration Rights Agreement provide for indemnification and contribution, the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable law and public policy considerations.

(iv) Assuming the due authorization by the Company, the DTC Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company (to the extent that execution and delivery are governed by the law of the State of New York), and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by The Depositary Trust Company, is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, preference or other laws affecting or relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

(v) The Securities are in the form contemplated by the Indenture and, assuming the Securities have been duly authorized by the Company for issuance and sale pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the Indenture, have been duly executed and delivered by the Company (to the extent execution and delivery are governed by the law of the State of New York), and when authenticated by the Trustee in the manner provided in the Indenture (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Indenture by the Trustee) and delivered against payment of the purchase price therefor, the Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, preference or other laws affecting or relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law) and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

(vi) Assuming the Exchange Securities have been duly authorized for issuance by the Company, when issued and authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Exchange Offer, the Exchange Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, preference or other laws affecting or relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law), and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

(vii) The Securities, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Indenture conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Offering Memorandum.

A-1

(viii) The statements in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum under the captions "Description of the Notes," and "Notice to Investors," insofar as such statements constitute matters of United States law, summaries of United States legal matters or documents, or legal conclusions with respect to United States law, have been reviewed by such counsel and fairly present and summarize, in all material respects, the matters referred to therein.

(ix) No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental or regulatory authority or agency of the United States or the State of New York, which has not been obtained, taken or made (other than as required by any state securities or Blue Sky laws of the various states, as to which no opinion is expressed), is required for the Company's execution, delivery and performance of the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement or the Indenture, or the issuance and delivery of the Securities or the Exchange Securities, or consummation of the Transactions, except such as may be required by federal and state securities laws with respect to the Company's obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement.

(x) The execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement, the Securities and the Exchange Securities by the Company and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder and the consummation of the Transactions (other than performance by the Company of its obligations under the indemnification and contribution sections of the Purchase Agreement, as to which no opinion is expressed) (i) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or Default or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the Existing Instruments except for such Defaults, Debt Repayment Triggering Events, conflicts, breaches, liens, charges or encumbrances as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change; or (ii) to the best of such counsel's knowledge, will not result in any violation of any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree in the United States applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(xi) No registration of the Company under the Investment Company Act is required for, or will be required as a consequence of, the issuance, offer and sale of the Securities in the manner contemplated in the Offering Memorandum.

(xii) Assuming the accuracy of the respective representations, warranties and undertakings of the Company and the Initial Purchasers contained in the Purchase Agreement, no registration of the Securities under the Securities Act, and no qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, is required in connection with the purchase of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers or the initial resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Qualified Institutional Buyers in the manner contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum (other than any registration or qualification that may be required in connection with the Exchange Offer contemplated by the Offering Memorandum or in connection with the Registration Rights Agreement).

(xiii) Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement by each party thereto, the Company has validly and irrevocably submitted to the jurisdiction of any United States federal or state court located in the State of New York, County of New York, has expressly accepted the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court and has validly appointed CT Corporation System as its authorized agent in any suit or proceeding against it based on or arising under the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture or the Registration Rights Agreement.

In addition, such counsel shall state that they have participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent public or certified public accountants for the Company and with representatives of the Initial Purchasers at which the contents of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, and any supplements or amendments thereto, and related matters were discussed and, although such counsel is not passing upon and does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum (other than as specified above), and any supplements or amendments thereto, on the basis of the foregoing, nothing has come to their attention which would lead them to believe that the Pricing Disclosure Package, as of the Execution Time, or that the Offering Memorandum, as of its date or at the Closing Date, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in

A-2

order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (it being understood that such counsel need express no belief as to the financial statements or other financial data derived therefrom, included in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum or any amendments or supplements thereto).

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely as to matters involving the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York or the federal law of the United States, to the extent they deem proper and specified in such opinion, upon the opinion (which shall be dated the Closing Date shall be satisfactory in form and substance to the Initial Purchasers, shall expressly state that the Initial Purchasers may rely on such opinion as if it were addressed to them and shall be furnished to the Initial Purchasers) of other counsel of good standing whom they believe to be reliable and who are satisfactory to counsel for the Initial Purchasers; provided, however, that such counsel shall further state that they believe that they and the Initial Purchasers are justified in relying upon such opinion of other counsel, and as to matters of fact, to the extent they deem proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company and public officials.

A-3

EXHIBIT B

Opinion of U.S. tax counsel for the Company to be delivered pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Purchase Agreement.

Opinion of Canadian counsel for the Company to be delivered pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Purchase Agreement.

(i) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a company in good standing under the laws of the Province of Québec.

(ii) The Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum and to enter into and perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Indenture, the Securities, the Exchange Securities and the DTC Agreement.

(xiv) No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental or regulatory authority or agency, is required for the Company's execution, delivery and performance of the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Indenture or the DTC Agreement, or the issuance and delivery of the Securities or the Exchange Securities, or consummation of the Transactions, except for filings, registrations and recordings which have been made and consents which have been obtained or except for filings pursuant to National Instrument 45-106 which must be made within the prescribed delays following the issuance of the Securities in Canada.

(xv) The execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Indenture, the DTC Agreement, the Securities and the Exchange Securities by the Company and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder (other than performance by the Company of its obligations under the indemnification and contribution sections of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, as to which no opinion is expressed) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and (i) will not result in any violation of the provisions of the articles or by-laws of the Company or any Material Subsidiary, (ii) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, a Default or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, any Existing Instrument, and (iii) to the best of knowledge, will not result in any violation of any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree in Canada applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(xvi) To the best of knowledge, neither the Company nor any Material Subsidiary is in violation of its articles or by-laws, or is in Default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any Existing Instrument, except in each such case for such violations or Defaults as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.

(xvii) To the best of knowledge, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in violation of any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree in Canada applicable to the Company or any subsidiary, except in each such case for such violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.

(xviii) To the best of knowledge, there is no pending or threatened legal or governmental proceedings by or before any court or judicial or administrative board or tribunal or any governmental body in Canada that are not described or referred to in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, except in each case for such proceedings that, if subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.

(xix) It is not necessary in connection with the offer, sale and delivery of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers, or in connection with the initial resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to each subsequent purchaser thereof, as contemplated in the Purchase Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, to qualify by prospectus the distribution of the Securities under Canadian Securities Laws.

(xx) No withholding tax imposed under the federal laws of Canada will be payable in respect of the payment or crediting by the Issuer of any commission or fee as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement to an Initial Purchaser that is not a resident of Canada for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (a "Non-Resident Initial Purchaser") or in respect of any interest or deemed interest on the resale of Securities by a Non-Resident Initial Purchaser to persons not resident in Canada, provided that such Initial Purchaser deals at arm's length with the Issuer, that any such commission or fee is payable in respect of services rendered by such Initial Purchaser outside of Canada which are performed by such Initial Purchaser in the ordinary course of business carried on by it that includes the performance of such services for a fee, and that any such commission or fee is reasonable under the circumstances.

(xxi) There are no capital, stamp, withholding or other issuance taxes or duties imposed by the Canadian government or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein payable by or on behalf of the Initial

C-2

Purchasers in the Province of Québec in connection with (i) the issuance of the Securities, (ii) the sale and delivery of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers or (iii) the consummation of any other transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement.

(xxii) If an action is brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Québec (a "Québec Court") to enforce the Indenture, the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement, the Securities or the Exchange Securities in accordance with the laws applicable thereto as chosen by the parties, namely New York law, the Québec Court would recognize the choice of New York law, and, upon appropriate evidence as to such law being adduced, apply the internal law of New York, provided that (i) in matters of procedure, the laws of Québec will be applied, (ii) those rules of law in force in Québec which are applicable by reason of their particular object will be applied, and (iii) the provisions of the laws of New York will not be applied if the application would be manifestly inconsistent with public order as understood in international relations. A Québec Court will retain discretion to decline to hear such action if it is not the proper forum to hear such an action, or if concurrent proceedings are pending or have been decided elsewhere. There are no reasons under current law for avoiding the application of New York law based on public order, except that there is some doubt as to whether a Québec Court would apply U.S. federal or state securities laws as the sole basis for liability.

(xxiii) If an action is brought in a Québec Court on a final and enforceable judgment in personam for a sum certain of a federal or state court located in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York (a "New York Court") that is not subject to ordinary remedy under New York law respecting the enforcement of the Indenture, the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement, the Securities or the Exchange Securities, the Québec Court will recognize and declare enforceable the New York judgment unless: (i) the New York Court rendering such judgment does not have jurisdiction over the judgment debtor (although submission by us in the Indenture to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Court will be sufficient for that purpose); (ii) such judgment is not final and enforceable in the jurisdiction in which it was rendered; (iii) such judgment was rendered in contravention of the fundamental principles of procedure; (iv) there were proceedings pending in the Province of Québec or judgment was rendered in the Province of Québec or in a third country meeting the necessary conditions for recognition in the Province of Québec between the same parties, based on the same facts and having the same object; (v) such judgment is manifestly inconsistent with public order as understood in international relations, as that term is applied by a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Québec; (vi) such judgment enforces obligations arising from the taxation laws of a foreign country, unless there is reciprocity, or arising from other laws of public nature, such as penal or expropriation laws; (vii) the action to enforce such judgment is not commenced in the Province of Québec within the applicable prescriptive period; or (viii) the foreign judgment is contrary to an order made by the Attorney General of Canada under the Foreign Extraterritorial Measures Act (Canada) or by the Competition Tribunal under the Competition Act (Canada) in respect of certain judgments defined therein. If the judgment of the New York Court is rendered by default, the plaintiff must prove that the act of procedure initiating the proceedings was duly served on the defendant (in accordance with the laws of the place where such judgment was rendered, i.e., New York Laws), and a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Québec may refuse recognition or enforcement of the judgment if the defendant proves that, owing to the circumstances, it was unable to learn of the act of procedure or it was not given sufficient time to offer its defense. In any such motion brought before a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Québec, the court will confine itself to verifying whether the judgment of the New York Court meets the foregoing requirements without entering into any examination of the merits of the judgment. Under the Currency Act (Canada), a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Québec may only render judgment for a sum of money in Canadian currency, and in enforcing a foreign judgment for a sum of money in foreign currency, a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Québec will render its decision in the Canadian currency equivalent of such foreign currency calculated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date the judgment become enforceable at the place where it was rendered. To the best of knowledge, there is no reason under the present laws of the Province of Québec for avoiding recognition of judgments of a New York Court under the Indenture, the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement, the Securities or the Exchange Securities, based upon public order as understood in international relations, as the term is applied by a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Québec. The recognition and enforceability in the Province of Québec of any such judgment of the New York Court may be limited by applicable Canadian federal and provincial bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, winding-up, moratorium, or other laws generally affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights.
