Said amounts of principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses are collectively referred to in this Note as the “Entire Note Balance.”
This Note is issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of, and is subject to the provisions, and entitled to the benefits of, that certain Senior Secured Commercial Loan Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2018 (as modified by that certain First Modification to Senior Secured Commercial Loan Agreement, dated as of April 8, 2019, that certain Second Modification to Senior Secured Commercial Loan Agreement, dated as of January 13, 2020 and that certain Third Modification to Senior Secured Commercial Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, each by and among the Lender, the Borrower and the other parties named therein, and as may be further modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), which is incorporated herein as if reproduced verbatim and in its entirety.

1. Interest Rate; Amendment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay principal and all interest which accrues on the unpaid balance of this Note from the date the proceeds of this Note are disbursed until such time as the obligations evidenced hereunder have been paid in full. Effective as of January 13, 2020 until February 29, 2020, the outstanding principal balance of $77,675,000 shall bear interest at the fixed rate of fifteen and one-half percent (15.5%) per annum, of which (a) twelve percent (12.0%) shall be payable monthly in cash based on the outstanding principal, and (b) three and one-half percent (3.5%) shall accrue monthly to the outstanding principal as payment-in-kind. Effective as of March 1, 2020 and until July 2, 2021, the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at the fixed rate of fifteen and one- half percent (15.5%) per annum, all of which shall accrue monthly to the outstanding principal as payment-in-kind. Commencing on July 2, 2021 until January 31, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”), the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at the fixed rate of fifteen and one- half percent (15.5%) per annum, of which (x) seven and three-quarters percent (7.75%) shall be payable monthly in cash based on the outstanding principal, and (y) the remaining seven and three- quarters percent (7.75%) shall accrue monthly to the outstanding principal as payment-in-kind. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that, at any time after the date hereof, Internal Revenue Code Section 280E reform is enacted with respect to the cannabis industry in a manner that would eliminate the additional tax burden placed on Borrower and its subsidiaries, all of the interest accruing after the enactment date of such reform shall be payable in cash in accordance with Section 2 hereof. After the Maturity Date, interest will be calculated as set forth above, plus an additional five percent (5.0%) per annum in excess of such rate, such additional interest to be paid in cash and compounding monthly. In the event of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the applicable interest rate shall be increased by five percent (5.0%) per annum, such increased interest to be paid in cash and compounding monthly. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year counting the actual number of days elapsed. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.
2. Payments. Except as set forth in Section 1, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest payable in cash, in amounts that may vary, monthly, on the first (1st) day of each calendar month, or as otherwise invoiced by the Lender, until the Maturity Date or an earlier Event of Default when the Entire Note Balance shall be due and payable in full. Whenever any cash payment to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. All payments called for in this Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. If made by check, draft or other payment instrument, such check, draft or other payment instrument shall represent immediately available funds. In the holder’s discretion, any payment made by a check, draft or other payment instrument shall not be considered to have been made until such time as the funds represented thereby have been collected by the holder.
3. Prepayment. Except for prepayments of this Note required under Section 5.02(t) of the Loan Agreement, the Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time upon fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to the Lender. Any partial prepayment shall be applied in the order of priority set forth in Section 5 hereof and then against the principal amount outstanding in the inverse order of maturity, and shall not postpone the due date of any subsequent monthly payments of interest, unless the Lender shall otherwise agree in writing.
4. Non-Revolving. This is not a revolving note. Amounts repaid or prepaid may not be re-borrowed.
5. Application of Payments. Payments made hereunder will be applied first to fully pay any outstanding late charges or fees, then to fully pay reasonable documented costs and expenses actually incurred by holder in collecting the Note or in sustaining and/or enforcing any security granted to secure this Note, then to fully pay accrued interest and the remainder will be applied to the outstanding principal balance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender may apply payments in such order of priority as the Lender may choose, in its sole discretion.
12 |
6. Maximum Legal Rate. It is the intent of the Lender and the Borrower that in no event shall interest be payable at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Legal Rate”). Solely to the extent necessary to prevent interest under this Note from exceeding the Maximum Legal Rate, the Borrower agrees that any amount that would be treated as excessive under a final judicial interpretation of applicable law shall be deemed to have been a mistake and automatically cancelled, and, if received by the Lender, shall be refunded to the Borrower without interest.
7. Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Entire Note Balance shall, at the option of the Lender, become immediately due and payable without notice or demand.
8. Delay in Enforcement. The liability of the Borrower or any co-maker, endorser or guarantor under this Note is unconditional and shall not be affected by any extension of time, renewal, waiver or any other modification whatsoever, granted or consented to by the Lender. Any failure by the Lender to exercise any right it may have under this Note is not a waiver of the Lender's rights to exercise the same or any other right at any other time.

Nothing herein contained or done pursuant hereto shall obligate the Holder to purchase or pay for or the Corporation to issue any Class B Common Shares except those Class B Common Shares in respect of which the Holder shall have exercised its right to purchase hereunder in the manner provided herein.
21 |
10. Covenants
| (a) | The Corporation covenants and agrees that: |
| (i) | so long as any Warrants evidenced hereby remain outstanding, it shall reserve and there shall remain unissued out of its authorized capital a sufficient number of Class B Common Shares to satisfy the right of purchase herein provided for should the Holder determine to exercise its rights in respect of all the Class B Common Shares for the time being called for by such outstanding Warrants; and |
|
|
|
| (ii) | all Class B Common Shares which shall be issued upon the exercise of the right to purchase herein provided for, upon payment therefor of the amount at which such Class B Common Shares may at the time be purchased pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall be issued as fully paid and non-assessable Class B Common Shares. |
| (b) | The Corporation covenants and agrees that, so long as any Warrants evidenced hereby remain outstanding, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve and maintain its corporate existence. |
11. Adjustment to Exercise Price
The Exercise Price in effect at any time is subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided as follows:
| (a) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation: |
| (i) | issues Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares to all or substantially all the holders of the Class B Common Shares as a stock dividend; |
|
|
|
| (ii) | makes a distribution on its outstanding Class B Common Shares payable in Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares; |
|
|
|
| (iii) | subdivides its outstanding Class B Common Shares into a greater number of Class B Common Shares; or |
|
|
|
| (iv) | consolidates its outstanding Class B Common Shares into a smaller number of Class B Common Shares; |
|
|
|
| (any of such events being called a “Share Reorganization”), then the Exercise Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the effective date or record date for a Share Reorganization, as the case may be, at which the holders of Class B Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Share Reorganization by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date, as the case may be, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date, as the case may be, before giving effect to such Share Reorganization and the denominator of which is the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares are distributed, the number of Class B Common Shares that would have been outstanding had all such securities been exchanged for or converted into Class B Common Shares on such effective date or record date). |
22 |
| (b) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of all or substantially all of its outstanding Class B Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares, where: |
| (i) | the right to subscribe for or purchase Class B Common Shares, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares, expires not more than forty-five (45) days after the record date of such issue (such period being the “Rights Period”); and |
|
|
|
| (ii) | the cost per Class B Common Share (inclusive of any cost of acquisition of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares in addition to any direct cost of Class B Common Shares) (in this Section 11 called the “Per Share Cost”) is less than 95% of the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares on the record date, |
|
|
|
| (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the Exercise Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction: |
| (A) | the numerator of which is the aggregate of: |
| (1) | the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and |
|
|
|
| (2) | a number determined by dividing the product of the Per Share Cost and: |
| (I) | where the event giving rise to the application of this Section 11(b) was the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of Class B Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase additional Class B Common Shares, the number of Class B Common Shares so subscribed for or purchased during the Rights Period, or |
|
|
|
| (II) | where the event giving rise to the application of this Section 11(b) was the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of Class B Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares, the number of Class B Common Shares for which those securities so subscribed for or purchased during the Rights Period could have been exchanged or into which they could have been converted during the Rights Period, by the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and |
23 |
| (B) | the denominator of which is: |
| (1) | in the case described in paragraph 11(b)(A)(2)(I), the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding, or |
|
|
|
| (2) | in the case described in paragraph 11(b)(A)(2)(II), the number of Class B Common Shares that would be outstanding if all the Class B Common Shares described in paragraph 11(b)(A)(2)(II) had been issued, |
|
|
|
| as at the end of the Rights Period. |
|
| Any Class B Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. |
|
|
|
|
| To the extent that any adjustment in the Exercise Price occurs pursuant to this Section 11(b) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in this Section 11(b), the Exercise Price will be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Class B Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable after such expiration, and will be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right. |
|
|
|
| (c) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue or the distribution to the holders of all or substantially all its Class B Common Shares of: |
| (i) | shares of the Corporation of any class other than Class B Common Shares; |
|
|
|
| (ii) | rights, options or warrants to acquire Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares; |
|
|
|
| (iii) | evidence of indebtedness; or |
|
|
|
| (iv) | any securities, property or other assets, |
|
|
|
| and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute (A) a Share Reorganization, or (B) a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being called a “Special Distribution”), then the Exercise Price will be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction: |
| (A) | the numerator of which is: |
| (1) | the product of the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares on such record date; less |
24 |
| (2) | the aggregate fair market value (as determined by action by the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, whose determination shall be conclusive) to the holders of the Class B Common Shares of such securities, evidence of indebtedness, property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution; and |
| (B) | the denominator of which is the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares on such record date. |
| Any Class B Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. | |
|
|
|
| (d) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, there is a capital reorganization of the Corporation or a reclassification or other change in the Class B Common Shares, or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger which does not result in any reclassification or redesignation of the outstanding Class B Common Shares or a change or exchange of the Class B Common Shares into or for other shares, securities or property), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganization”), the Holder, upon exercising the Warrants after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization, will be entitled to receive in lieu of the number of Class B Common Shares to which such Holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property which such Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Class B Common Shares to which such Holder was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Warrants. If determined appropriate by action of the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder to the end that the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be possible in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. Any such adjustment must be made by and set forth in an amendment to this Warrant Certificate approved by action by the directors of the Corporation and will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment. |
|
|
|
| (e) | If at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time any adjustment or readjustment in the Exercise Price shall occur pursuant to the provisions of Sections 11(a), (b) or (c), then the number of Class B Common Shares purchasable upon the subsequent exercise of the Warrants shall be simultaneously adjusted or readjusted, as the case may be, by multiplying the number of Class B Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment by a fraction which shall be the reciprocal of the fraction used in the adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price. |
25 |
12. | Rules Regarding Adjustments |
| (a) | The adjustments provided for in Section 11 are cumulative and will, in the case of adjustments to the Exercise Price, be computed to the nearest one-tenth of one cent and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs, subject to the following subsections of this Section 12. |
|
|
|
| (b) | No adjustment in the Exercise Price is required to be made unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Exercise Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this Section 12(b), would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustments. |
|
|
|
| (c) | No adjustment in the Exercise Price will be made in respect of any event described in Section 11 if the Holder is entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Holder had exercised the Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event. |
|
|
|
| (d) | No adjustment in the Exercise Price (or the number of Class B Common Shares issuable upon exercise hereof) will be made under Section 11 in respect of any dividends paid in the ordinary course to holders of Class B Common Shares, whether in (i) cash, (ii) shares of the Corporation, (iii) warrants or similar rights to purchase any shares of the Corporation or property or other assets of the Corporation, and any such dividend will be deemed not to be a Share Reorganization, a Rights Offering or a Special Distribution, or in respect of any distribution of Class B Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of stock options granted under incentive plans of the Corporation or pursuant to the redemption or exchange in accordance with their terms of securities of any subsidiaries of the Corporation. |
|
|
|
| (e) | If at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 11, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the auditors of the Corporation or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action by the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, and any such determination will be binding upon the Corporation, the Holder and shareholders of the Corporation. The Corporation will provide such auditors or accountants with access to all necessary records of the Corporation. |

| (f) | If, after the date of issuance of the Warrants, the Corporation takes any action affecting the Class B Common Shares, other than an action described in Section 11, which in the opinion of the board of directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, would materially affect the rights of the Holder, the Exercise Price will be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, as determined by action by the directors of the Corporation, but subject in all cases to any necessary regulatory approval. |
|
|

|
| (k) | The Corporation covenants to and in favour of the Holder that so long as the Warrants remain outstanding, it will give notice to the Holder of its intention to fix a record date or effective date for any event referred to in Sections 11(a), (b) or (c) (other than the subdivision or consolidation of the Class B Common Shares) which may give rise to an adjustment in the Exercise Price, and, in each case, such notice must specify the particulars of such event and the record date and the effective date for such event; provided that the Corporation is only required to specify in such notice such particulars of such event as have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given. |
13. | Consolidation and Amalgamation |

| (i) | the successor corporation will have assumed all the covenants and obligations of the Corporation under this Warrant Certificate, and |

3. Exercise Procedure
The Holder may exercise the right of purchase herein provided for by surrendering or delivering to the Corporation prior to the Expiry Time at its principal office this Warrant Certificate, with the Subscription Form duly completed and executed by the Holder or its legal representative or attorney, duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and manner satisfactory to the Corporation, and:

44 |
10. Covenants
| (a) | The Corporation covenants and agrees that: | |
|
|
|
|
|
| (i) | so long as any Warrants evidenced hereby remain outstanding, it shall reserve and there shall remain unissued out of its authorized capital a sufficient number of Class B Common Shares to satisfy the right of purchase herein provided for should the Holder determine to exercise its rights in respect of all the Class B Common Shares for the time being called for by such outstanding Warrants; and |
|
|
|
|
|
| (ii) | all Class B Common Shares which shall be issued upon the exercise of the right to purchase herein provided for, upon payment therefor of the amount at which such Class B Common Shares may at the time be purchased pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall be issued as fully paid and non-assessable Class B Common Shares. |
|
|
|
|
| (b) | The Corporation covenants and agrees that, so long as any Warrants evidenced hereby remain outstanding, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve and maintain its corporate existence. |
11. Adjustment to Exercise Price
The Exercise Price in effect at any time is subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided as follows:
| (a) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation: | |
|
|
|
|
|
| (i) | issues Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares to all or substantially all the holders of the Class B Common Shares as a stock dividend; |
|
|
|
|
|
| (ii) | makes a distribution on its outstanding Class B Common Shares payable in Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares; |
|
|
|
|
|
| (iii) | subdivides its outstanding Class B Common Shares into a greater number of Class B Common Shares; or |
|
|
|
|
|
| (iv) | consolidates its outstanding Class B Common Shares into a smaller number of Class B Common Shares; |
|
|
|
|
| (any of such events being called a “Share Reorganization”), then the Exercise Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the effective date or record date for a Share Reorganization, as the case may be, at which the holders of Class B Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Share Reorganization by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date, as the case may be, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date, as the case may be, before giving effect to such Share Reorganization and the denominator of which is the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares are distributed, the number of Class B Common Shares that would have been outstanding had all such securities been exchanged for or converted into Class B Common Shares on such effective date or record date). | ||
|
|
|
|
| (b) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of all or substantially all of its outstanding Class B Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares, where: |
45 |
|
| (i) | the right to subscribe for or purchase Class B Common Shares, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares, expires not more than forty-five (45) days after the record date of such issue (such period being the “Rights Period”); and |
|
|
|
|
|
| (ii) | the cost per Class B Common Share (inclusive of any cost of acquisition of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares in addition to any direct cost of Class B Common Shares) (in this Section 11 called the “Per Share Cost”) is less than 95% of the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares on the record date, |
|
|
|
|
|
| (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the Exercise Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction: |
|
|
| (A) | the numerator of which is the aggregate of: | ||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (1) | the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (2) | a number determined by dividing the product of the Per Share Cost and: | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (I) | where the event giving rise to the application of this Section 11(b) was the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of Class B Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase additional Class B Common Shares, the number of Class B Common Shares so subscribed for or purchased during the Rights Period, or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (II) | where the event giving rise to the application of this Section 11(b) was the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of Class B Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares, the number of Class B Common Shares for which those securities so subscribed for or purchased during the Rights Period could have been exchanged or into which they could have been converted during the Rights Period, |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| by the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and |
46 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (B) | the denominator of which is: | ||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (1) | in the case described in paragraph 11(b)(A)(2)(I), the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding, or | |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| (2) | in the case described in paragraph 11(b)(A)(2)(II), the number of Class B Common Shares that would be outstanding if all the Class B Common Shares described in paragraph 11(b)(A)(2)(II) had been issued, | |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| as at the end of the Rights Period. | ||
|
|
|
|
| ||
|
| Any Class B Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. | ||||
|
|
| ||||
|
| To the extent that any adjustment in the Exercise Price occurs pursuant to this Section 11(b) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in this Section 11(b), the Exercise Price will be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Class B Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable after such expiration, and will be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right. | ||||
|
|
| ||||
| (c) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue or the distribution to the holders of all or substantially all its Class B Common Shares of: | ||||
|
|
| ||||
|
| (I) | shares of the Corporation of any class other than Class B Common Shares; |
|
| (ii) | rights, options or warrants to acquire Class B Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Class B Common Shares; |
|
|
|
|
|
| (iii) | evidence of indebtedness; or |
|
|
|
|
|
| (iv) | any securities, property or other assets, |
|
|
|
|
|
| and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute (A) a Share Reorganization, or (B) a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being called a “Special Distribution”), then the Exercise Price will be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction: |
|
| (A) | the numerator of which is: | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (1) | the product of the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares on such record date; less |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (2) | the aggregate fair market value (as determined by action by the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, whose determination shall be conclusive) to the holders of the Class B Common Shares of such securities, evidence of indebtedness, property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution; and |
47 |
|
| (B) | the denominator of which is the number of Class B Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Class B Common Shares on such record date. |
|
|
|
|
| Any Class B Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. | ||
|
|
|
|
| (d) | If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, there is a capital reorganization of the Corporation or a reclassification or other change in the Class B Common Shares, or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger which does not result in any reclassification or redesignation of the outstanding Class B Common Shares or a change or exchange of the Class B Common Shares into or for other shares, securities or property), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganization”), the Holder, upon exercising the Warrants after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization, will be entitled to receive in lieu of the number of Class B Common Shares to which such Holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property which such Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Class B Common Shares to which such Holder was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Warrants. If determined appropriate by action of the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder to the end that the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be possible in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. Any such adjustment must be made by and set forth in an amendment to this Warrant Certificate approved by action by the directors of the Corporation and will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment. | |
|
|
|
|
| (e) | If at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time any adjustment or readjustment in the Exercise Price shall occur pursuant to the provisions of Sections 11(a), (b) or (c), then the number of Class B Common Shares purchasable upon the subsequent exercise of the Warrants shall be simultaneously adjusted or readjusted, as the case may be, by multiplying the number of Class B Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment by a fraction which shall be the reciprocal of the fraction used in the adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price. |
48 |
12. Rules Regarding Adjustments
| (a) | The adjustments provided for in Section 11 are cumulative and will, in the case of adjustments to the Exercise Price, be computed to the nearest one-tenth of one cent and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs, subject to the following subsections of this Section 12. |
|
|
|
| (b) | No adjustment in the Exercise Price is required to be made unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Exercise Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this Section 12(b), would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustments. |
|
|
|
| (c) | No adjustment in the Exercise Price will be made in respect of any event described in Section 11 if the Holder is entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Holder had exercised the Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event. |
|
|
|
| (d) | No adjustment in the Exercise Price (or the number of Class B Common Shares issuable upon exercise hereof) will be made under Section 11 in respect of any dividends paid in the ordinary course to holders of Class B Common Shares, whether in (i) cash, (ii) shares of the Corporation, (iii) warrants or similar rights to purchase any shares of the Corporation or property or other assets of the Corporation, and any such dividend will be deemed not to be a Share Reorganization, a Rights Offering or a Special Distribution, or in respect of any distribution of Class B Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of stock options granted under incentive plans of the Corporation or pursuant to the redemption or exchange in accordance with their terms of securities of any subsidiaries of the Corporation. |
|
|
|
| (e) | If at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 11, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the auditors of the Corporation or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action by the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, and any such determination will be binding upon the Corporation, the Holder and shareholders of the Corporation. The Corporation will provide such auditors or accountants with access to all necessary records of the Corporation. |
|
|
|
| (f) | If, after the date of issuance of the Warrants, the Corporation takes any action affecting the Class B Common Shares, other than an action described in Section 11, which in the opinion of the board of directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, would materially affect the rights of the Holder, the Exercise Price will be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, as determined by action by the directors of the Corporation, but subject in all cases to any necessary regulatory approval. |
|
|
|
| (g) | If the Corporation sets a record date to determine the holders of the Class B Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, decides not to implement its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other action, then no adjustment in the Exercise Price will be required by reason of the setting of such record date. |
|
|
|
| (h) | In the absence of a resolution of the directors of the Corporation fixing a record date for a Special Distribution or Rights Offering, the Corporation will be deemed to have fixed as the record date therefor the date on which the Special Distribution or Rights Offering is effected. |
49 |
| (i) | As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require any adjustment to the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate, including the Exercise Price, the Corporation must take any corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Corporation have unissued and reserved in its authorized capital and may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all the shares or other securities which the Holder is entitled to receive on the full exercise thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof. |
|
|
|
| (j) | The Corporation will from time to time, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 11, forthwith give notice to the Holder specifying the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the results thereof, including the resulting Exercise Price. |
|
|
|
| (k) | The Corporation covenants to and in favour of the Holder that so long as the Warrants remain outstanding, it will give notice to the Holder of its intention to fix a record date or effective date for any event referred to in Sections 11(a), (b) or (c) (other than the subdivision or consolidation of the Class B Common Shares) which may give rise to an adjustment in the Exercise Price, and, in each case, such notice must specify the particulars of such event and the record date and the effective date for such event; provided that the Corporation is only required to specify in such notice such particulars of such event as have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given. |
13. Consolidation and Amalgamation
| (a) | The Corporation shall not enter into any transaction whereby all or substantially all of its undertaking, property and assets would become the property of any other corporation (herein called a “successor corporation”) whether by way of reorganization, reconstruction, consolidation, arrangement, amalgamation, merger, transfer, sale, disposition or otherwise, unless prior to or contemporaneously with the consummation of such transaction the Corporation and the successor corporation shall have executed such instruments and done such things as the Company, acting reasonably, considers are necessary or advisable to establish that upon the consummation of such transaction: | |
|
|
|
|
|
| (i) | the successor corporation will have assumed all the covenants and obligations of the Corporation under this Warrant Certificate, and |
|
|
|
|
|
| (ii) | the Warrants will be valid and binding obligations of the successor corporation entitling the Holder, as against the successor corporation, to all the rights of the Holder under this Warrant Certificate. |
|
|
|
|
| (b) | Whenever the conditions of Section 13(a) shall have been duly observed and performed the successor corporation shall possess, and from time to time may exercise, each and every right and power of the Corporation under this Warrant Certificate in the name of the Corporation or otherwise and any act or proceeding by any provision hereof required to be done or performed by any director or officer of the Corporation may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of the successor corporation. |
