Acquiror will use its reasonable best efforts and in good faith expeditiously take all such actions and do all such things as are reasonably necessary or desirable to cause all Acquiror Shares to be delivered pursuant to the Exchange Right or the Automatic Exchange Rights to be listed, quoted or posted for trading on all stock exchanges and quotation systems on which outstanding Acquiror Shares are listed, quoted or posted for trading at such time.

Section 5.11 Acquiror Shares

Acquiror hereby represents, warrants and covenants that the Acquiror Shares issuable to Beneficiaries as described herein will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance.

Section 5.12 Automatic Exchange on Liquidation of Acquiror

(a)	Acquiror will give the Trustee written notice of each of the following events at the time set forth below:

(i)

in the event of any determination by the Board of Directors of Acquiror to institute voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up proceedings with respect to Acquiror or to effect any other distribution of assets of Acquiror among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, at least 60 days prior to the proposed effective date of such liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or other distribution; and

-17-

(ii)

promptly following the earlier of (A) receipt by Acquiror of notice of, and (B) Acquiror otherwise becoming aware of, any threatened or instituted claim, suit, petition or other proceedings with respect to the involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Acquiror or to effect any other distribution of assets of Acquiror among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, in each case where Acquiror has failed to contest in good faith any such proceeding commenced in respect of Acquiror within 30 days of becoming aware thereof.

(b)

Promptly following receipt by the Trustee from Acquiror of notice of any event (a “Liquidation Event”) contemplated by Section 5.12(a) above, the Trustee will give notice thereof to the Beneficiaries. Such notice shall be provided to the Trustee by Acquiror and shall include a brief description of rights of the Beneficiaries with respect to the Automatic Exchange Rights provided for in Section 5.12(c).

(c)

In order that the Beneficiaries will be able to participate on a pro rata basis with the holders of Acquiror Shares in the distribution of assets of Acquiror in connection with a Liquidation Event, immediately prior to the effective time (the “Liquidation Event Effective Time”) of a Liquidation Event all of the then outstanding Exchangeable Shares shall be automatically exchanged for Acquiror Shares. To effect such automatic exchange, Acquiror shall purchase each Exchangeable Share outstanding immediately prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Time and held by Beneficiaries, and each Beneficiary shall sell the Exchangeable Shares held by such Beneficiary at such time, for a purchase price per share equal to the Exchangeable Share Price applicable at that time. Acquiror shall provide the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate in connection with any automatic exchange setting forth the calculation of the Exchangeable Share Price for each Exchangeable Share.

-18-

(d)

The closing of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated by the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Acquiror Shares shall be deemed to have occurred immediately prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Time, and each Beneficiary shall be deemed to have transferred to Acquiror all of the Beneficiary’s right, title and interest in and to such Beneficiary’s Exchangeable Shares and the related interest in the Trust Estate. Any right of each such Beneficiary to receive declared and unpaid dividends from the Corporation shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged and each such Beneficiary shall cease to be a holder of such Exchangeable Shares and Acquiror shall deliver to the Beneficiary the Exchangeable Share Consideration deliverable upon the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares. Concurrently with such Beneficiary ceasing to be a holder of Exchangeable Shares, the Beneficiary shall be considered and deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the Acquiror Shares issued pursuant to the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Acquiror Shares and the certificates held by the Beneficiary previously representing the Exchangeable Shares exchanged by the Beneficiary with Acquiror pursuant to such automatic exchange shall thereafter be deemed to represent Acquiror Shares issued to the Beneficiary by Acquiror pursuant to such automatic exchange. Upon the request of a Beneficiary and the surrender by the Beneficiary of Exchangeable Share certificates deemed to represent Acquiror Shares, duly endorsed in blank and accompanied by such instruments of transfer as Acquiror may reasonably require, Acquiror shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Beneficiary certificates representing Acquiror Shares of which the Beneficiary is the holder.

Section 5.13 Withholding Rights

Acquiror, the Corporation and the Trustee shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement to any holder of Exchangeable Shares or Acquiror Shares such amounts as Acquiror, the Corporation or the Trustee is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Income Tax Act (Canada), the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any provision of federal, provincial, state, local or foreign tax law, in each case as amended or succeeded. The Trustee may act on the advice of counsel with respect to such matters. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the holder of the shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. To the extent that the amount so required to be deducted or withheld from any payment to a holder exceeds the cash portion of the consideration otherwise payable to the holder, Acquiror, the Corporation and the Trustee are hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of such portion of the consideration as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to Acquiror, the Corporation or the Trustee, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and Acquiror, the Corporation or the Trustee shall notify the holder thereof and remit to such holder any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale.

such other person or continuing corporation (herein called the “Acquiror Successor”), by operation of law, becomes, without more, bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement or, if not so bound, executes, prior to or contemporaneously with the consummation of such transaction, a trust agreement supplemental hereto and such other instruments (if any) as are satisfactory to the Trustee, acting reasonably, and in the opinion of legal counsel to the Trustee are reasonably necessary or advisable to evidence the assumption by the Acquiror Successor of liability for all moneys payable and property deliverable hereunder (including without limitation one or more voting securities of such Acquiror Successor to allow Beneficiaries to exercise voting rights in respect of the Acquiror Successor substantially similar to those provided for in this Agreement in respect of Acquiror) and the covenant of such Acquiror Successor to pay and deliver or cause to be delivered the same and its agreement to observe and perform all the covenants and obligations of Acquiror under this Agreement; and

-30-

(b)	such transaction shall be upon such terms and conditions as substantially to preserve and not to impair in any material respect any of the rights, duties, powers and authorities of the Trustee or of the Beneficiaries hereunder.

Section 10.2 Vesting of Powers in Successor

Whenever the conditions of Section 10.1 have been duly observed and performed, the Trustee, Acquiror Successor and the Corporation shall, if required by Section 10.1, execute and deliver the supplemental trust agreement provided for in Article 11 and thereupon Acquiror Successor shall possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of Acquiror under this Agreement in the name of Acquiror or otherwise and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Agreement required to be done or performed by the Board of Directors of Acquiror or any officers of Acquiror may be done and performed with like force and effect by the directors or officers of such Acquiror Successor.

Section 10.3 Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries

Nothing herein shall be construed as preventing the amalgamation or merger of any wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Acquiror with or into Acquiror or the winding-up, liquidation or dissolution of any wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquiror provided that all of the assets of such subsidiary are transferred to Acquiror or another wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Acquiror and any such transactions are expressly permitted by this Article 10.

Section 10.4 Successorship Transaction

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 10, in the event of an Acquiror Control Transaction:

(a)	in which Acquiror merges or amalgamates with, or in which all or substantially all of the then outstanding Acquiror Shares are acquired by, one or more other corporations to which Acquiror is, immediately before such merger, amalgamation or acquisition, “related” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (otherwise than by virtue of a right referred to in paragraph 251(5)(b) thereof);
(b)	which does not result in an acceleration of the Redemption Date in accordance with paragraph (b) of that definition; and
(c)	in which all or substantially all of the then outstanding Acquiror Shares are converted into or exchanged for shares or rights to receive such shares (the “Other Shares”) of another corporation (the “Other Corporation”) that, immediately after such Acquiror Control Transaction, owns or controls, directly or indirectly, Acquiror;

then (i) all references herein to “Acquiror” shall thereafter be and be deemed to be references to “Other Corporation” and all references herein to “Acquiror Shares” shall thereafter be and be deemed to be references to “Other Shares” (with appropriate adjustments, if any, as are required to result in a holder of Exchangeable Shares on the exchange, redemption or retraction of such shares pursuant to the Exchangeable Share Provisions or exchange of such shares pursuant to this Agreement immediately subsequent to the Acquiror Control Transaction being entitled to receive that number of Other Shares equal to the number of Other Shares such holder of Exchangeable Shares would have received if the exchange, redemption or retraction of such shares pursuant to the Exchangeable Share Provisions or exchange of such shares pursuant to this Agreement had occurred immediately prior to the Acquiror Control Transaction and the Acquiror Control Transaction was completed) without any need to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement and without any further action required; and (ii) Acquiror shall cause the Other Corporation to deposit one or more voting securities of such Other Corporation to allow Beneficiaries to exercise voting rights in respect of the Other Corporation substantially similar to those provided for in this Agreement.
