Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set out in the Merger Agreement.
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned securityholder (the “Securityholder”), hereby agrees and covenants in his or her capacity as a securityholder and not in his or her capacity as an officer and/or director of Xxxxxxxx, and acknowledges that Agnico would not enter into the Merger Agreement but for the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Securityholder, as follows:
1. | Ownership of Shares and Other Securities |
The Securityholder is the registered and/or beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of, or has direction or control over, the number Shares and, if any, the number of Xxxxxxxx options exercisable for Shares (the “Options”), the number of Xxxxxxxx deferred share units (the “DSUs”), the number of Xxxxxxxx performance share units (the “PSUs”) and the number of Xxxxxxxx restricted share units (the “RSUs”), as set forth on the Securityholders’ acceptance (the “Acceptance”) at the end of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Subject Securities” means all Shares and Options of Xxxxxxxx held of record and/or beneficially owned or over which direction or control is exercised, directly or indirectly, by the Securityholder as of the date hereof and further includes any Shares and Options acquired or over which ownership, control or direction is acquired by the Securityholder after the date hereof, including any Shares acquired upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any securities or rights of Xxxxxxxx convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares held by the Securityholder or which may otherwise be acquired by the Securityholder after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.
2. | Covenants of the Securityholder |
The Securityholder irrevocably and unconditionally covenants, undertakes and agrees that, until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Securityholder shall:
(a) | not, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or otherwise facilitate (including by way of furnishing or providing copies of, access to, or disclosure of, any information, properties, facilities, books or records of Agnico, Xxxxxxxx or any of their respective Subsidiaries) or take any action to solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or otherwise facilitate, or otherwise engage or participate in, and immediately cease and cause to be terminated, any negotiations or any discussions regarding any inquiry, proposal, expression of interest or offer that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal in respect of Xxxxxxxx; |

(c) | attend (virtually, in person or by proxy) any meeting (including the Xxxxxxxx Meeting) of the securityholders of Xxxxxxxx convened for the purposes of considering any Acquisition Proposal and/or any other transaction or matter that could reasonably be expected to delay, prevent, frustrate or interfere with the consummation of the Arrangement or any transaction or matter contemplated by the Merger Agreement (including any adjournments and postponements thereof), and at such meeting, cause its Subject Securities to be counted as present for purposes of establishing quorum and, vote or cause to be voted all of the Subject Securities (which have a right to vote at such meeting) against any Acquisition Proposal and/or any transaction or matter that could reasonably be expected to delay, prevent, frustrate or interfere with, the completion of the Arrangement or any transaction or matter related to the Arrangement or contemplated by the Merger Agreement; |
(d) | not tender or cause to be tendered any Subject Securities to any Acquisition Proposal or other transaction or matter other than the Arrangement, such as a merger, amalgamation, arrangement, business combination, rights offering, reorganization, recapitalization or liquidation or take-over bid or similar transaction involving Xxxxxxxx or its Shares that could reasonably be expected to prevent, delay, frustrate or interfere with, the completion of the Arrangement or any transaction or matter related to the Arrangement or contemplated by the Merger Agreement; |
(e) | not, without the prior written consent of Agnico, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, grant a security interest in, gift or otherwise dispose of any Subject Securities, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding in connection with any of the foregoing (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise), other than (i) pursuant to the Arrangement or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, or permit any Affiliate of the Securityholder to do any of the foregoing, and (ii) with respect to the sale of a portion of any Shares issued upon vesting and exercise or settlement of the Options, PSUs and RSUs held by the Securityholder that vest prior to the completion of the Arrangement solely in order to satisfy any tax liabilities that arise in connection therewith; |
- 3 -
(f) | not, except as required pursuant to this Agreement, grant or agree to grant any proxy, power of attorney or other right to vote the Subject Securities, or deposit any of the Subject Securities into any voting trust or enter into any vote pooling agreement or voting arrangement or enter into or subject any of such Subject Securities to any other agreement, arrangement, understanding or commitment, formal or informal, with respect to or relating to the voting, calling of meetings of Xxxxxxxx Shareholders, the tendering thereof, or the granting of consents or approvals of any kind with respect to any Subject Securities; |

(h) | not, without the prior written consent of Agnico, requisition or join in the requisition of any meeting of any of the Xxxxxxxx Shareholders for the purpose of considering any resolution which may reasonably be expected to prevent, delay, frustrate or interfere with, the completion of the Arrangement or any transaction or matter related to the Arrangement or contemplated by the Merger Agreement; |
(i) | not make any public statement or take any other action of any kind which may reasonably be expected to prevent, delay, frustrate or interfere with, the completion of the Arrangement or any transaction or matter related to the Arrangement or contemplated by the Merger Agreement; |
(j) | in the event that Agnico (or any of its Affiliates) undertakes an alternative transaction to the Arrangement (whether in form or substance) involving Xxxxxxxx that results in holders of Shares receiving consideration that is no less favourable than the consideration offered pursuant to the Arrangement, reasonably cooperate to facilitate the objectives of Agnico and Xxxxxxxx in respect of such alternative transaction; and |
(k) | not do indirectly that which it may not do directly in respect of the restrictions on its rights with respect to the Securityholder’s Subject Securities pursuant to this Agreement. |

The Securityholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally covenants and agrees that: (a) no later than 10 Business Days prior to the scheduled date of the Xxxxxxxx Meeting, the Securityholder shall duly complete, execute and cause forms of proxy or voting instruction forms, as applicable, in respect of all the Subject Securities (which have a right to vote at such meeting) to be delivered as required to cause such Subject Securities to be voted in favour of the Arrangement Resolution and/or any matter set forth on such proxy or voting instruction form that would reasonably be expected to facilitate the Arrangement or any transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (b) such forms of proxy or voting instruction forms, as applicable, shall not be revoked or withdrawn, amended or invalidated, unless prior written consent from Agnico has been obtained or this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.
- 4 -
4. | Directors or Officers of Xxxxxxxx |
Agnico acknowledges and agrees that the Securityholder is bound hereunder solely in its capacity as a holder of Subject Securities and that the provisions hereof shall not be deemed or interpreted to bind the Securityholder in his or her capacity as a director, officer or employee of Xxxxxxxx or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, Agnico acknowledges and agrees that actions taken in good faith by the Securityholder to discharge his or her fiduciary duties and other legal obligations in his or her capacity as director or officer of Xxxxxxxx or its Subsidiaries shall not be a violation of this Agreement and nothing herein shall prevent, limit or restrict the Securityholder from serving as, or taking in good faith any action necessary to discharge his or her fiduciary duties and other legal obligations as, a director and/or officer of Xxxxxxxx or its Subsidiaries under Law or that is expressly permitted by and done in compliance with the Merger Agreement.
