(a)

Interest on Prime-based loans and U.S. Prime-based loans is calculated on the daily outstanding principal balance, and is payable on the last day of each month.

(b)

If Letters of Credit are available under the Agreement, the term of each Letter of Credit shall not exceed one (1) year, although automatic extensions thereof (unless notified by Lender) are permitted. On any demand being made by a beneficiary for payment under a Letter of Credit, the amount so paid shall be automatically deemed to be outstanding as a Prime-based loan (if denominated in Canadian dollars) or U.S. Prime-based loan (if denominated in U.S. dollars) under the relevant Facility.

(c)

Borrower may cancel the availability of any unused portion of a Facility on five Business Days’ notice. Any such cancellation is irrevocable.

(d)

The annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates calculated in accordance with this Agreement are equivalent, are the rates so calculated multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which such calculation is made and divided by 365.

(e)

If the amount of Borrowings outstanding under any Facility, when converted to the Equivalent Amount in Canadian dollars, exceeds the amount available under such Facility, Borrower shall, unless Xxxxxx otherwise agrees in its sole discretion, immediately repay such excess to Lender.

(f)

If any amount due under this Agreement is not paid when due, Borrower shall pay interest on such unpaid amount (including without limitation, interest on interest) if and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, at a rate per annum 5% greater than the interest rate otherwise payable for such amount under this Agreement.

(g)

The branch of Lender (the “Branch of Account”) where Xxxxxxxx maintains an account and through which the Borrowings will be made available is located at Calgary Xxxxxxx Avenue Centre, 000-0xx Xxxxxx XX, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx X0X 0X0. Funds under the Facilities will be advanced into and repaid from account no. BP2792736 (if in Canadian currency) and account no. ● (if in U.S. currency) at the Branch of Account, or such other branch or account as Borrower and Xxxxxx may agree upon from time to time.

(h)

Lender shall open and maintain at the Branch of Account accounts and records evidencing the Borrowings made available to Borrower by Lender under this Agreement. Lender shall record the principal amount of each Borrowing and the payment of principal, interest and fees and all other amounts becoming due to Lender under this Agreement. Xxxxxx’s accounts and records (and any confirmations issued under this Agreement) constitute, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive evidence of the indebtedness of Borrower to Lender pursuant to this Agreement.

(i)

Borrower authorizes and directs Lender to automatically debit, by mechanical, electronic or manual means, any bank account of Borrower for all amounts payable by Borrower to Lender pursuant to this Agreement. Any amount due on a day other than a Business Day shall be deemed to be due on the Business Day next following such day, and interest shall accrue accordingly.

(j)

If a Financial Market Disruption has occurred, Lender shall have the option exercisable by written notice to Borrower to refuse any additional funding of any Facility, or to postpone the additional funding of any Facility until, in the reasonable opinion of Xxxxxx, the Financial Market Disruption has ceased.


xXxxxx Technologies Services Inc.		October 22, 2021
Page 14

(k)

Lender shall have the right to set-off and apply any funds of the Loan Parties (or any of them) deposited with or held by Xxxxxx from time to time, and any other indebtedness owing to the Loan Parties by Xxxxxx, against any of the amounts outstanding under this Agreement from time to time.

(l)

If a Letter of Credit is outstanding at any time that the obligations under the Facilities become immediately due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Borrower will forthwith pay to Lender cash collateral in an amount equal to the face amount of that Guaranteed Note and the maximum undrawn amount of that Letter of Credit. The proceeds of that payment will be held by Xxxxxx for set-off against the liability of Borrower to Lender in respect of that Letter of Credit. Xxxxxx will credit Borrower with interest on these proceeds at the prevailing rate for comparative term deposits on the date that any such Letter of Credit is returned for cancellation by the beneficiary or has expired (as applicable).

(m)

If revolvement of loans is permitted in this Agreement, principal advances and repayments on Prime-based loans and U.S. Prime-based loans are to be in the minimum sum of Cdn. Or U.S. $ 0.01 or multiples of it.

(c)

All Security Documents will be prepared by or under the supervision of Xxxxxx’s solicitors, unless Lender otherwise permits. Acceptance of this offer will authorize Xxxxxx to instruct Xxxxxx’s solicitors to prepare all necessary Security Documents and proceed with related matters.

(d)

Xxxxxx, without restriction, may waive in writing the satisfaction, observance or performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement. The obligations of a Guarantor (if any) will not be diminished, discharged or otherwise affected by or as a result of any such waiver, except to the extent that such waiver relates to an obligation of such Guarantor. Any waiver by Lender of the strict performance of any provision hereof will not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent default, and any partial exercise of any right or remedy by Lender shall not be deemed to affect any other right or remedy to which Lender may be entitled. No delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right or privilege will operate as a waiver of that right or privilege, and no delay or waiver of any failure or default will operate as a waiver of any subsequent failure or default unless made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Lender.

(e)

Borrower shall reimburse Lender for any additional cost or reduction in income or capital arising as a result of:

the imposition of, or increase in, taxes on payments due to Lender under this Agreement (other than taxes on the overall net income of Lender);

ii)

the imposition of, or increase in, any reserve or other similar requirement; or

iii)

the imposition of, or change in, any other condition affecting the Facilities imposed by any Applicable Law or the interpretation thereof;


xXxxxx Technologies Services Inc.		October 22, 2021
Page 15

all provided Lender is or will be generally claiming similar compensation from its other borrowers in similar circumstances and no more than 180 days have passed since the date of such imposition, increase or change.

(f)

Words importing the singular will include the plural and vice versa, and words importing gender will include the masculine, feminine and neuter, in each case all as the context and the nature of the parties requires.

(g)

Where more than one Person is liable as Borrower (or as a Guarantor) for any obligation under this Agreement, then the liability of each such Person for such obligation is joint and several with each other such Person.

(h)

If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement will not be affected and will be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law and any such invalidity or unenforceability will not invalidate or render unenforceable that provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent that any provision of any of the Security Documents conflict or are inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern and prevail to resolve any such conflict or inconsistency in any and all circumstances, such that the provisions of this Agreement shall be paramount to and supersede the conflicting or inconsistent provision of the Security Documents.

(i)

Where the interest rate of a credit is based on Prime, on U.S. Prime or on Libor, the applicable rate on any day will depend on the Prime, U.S. Prime or Libor rate in effect on that day, as applicable. The statement by Xxxxxx as to Prime, U.S. Prime or Libor and as to the rate of interest applicable to a credit on any day will be binding and conclusive for all purposes.

(j)

All interest rates specified are nominal annual rates. The effective annual rate in any case will vary with payment frequency. All interest payable under this Agreement bears interest after as well as before maturity, default and judgment with interest on overdue interest at the applicable rate payable hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, Borrower waives the provisions of the Judgment Interest Act (Alberta). Xxxxxxxx confirms that it fully understands and is able to calculate the rate of interest applicable to each of the Facilities and all Borrowings based on the methodology for calculating per annum rates provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, that the interest payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to Borrower as required pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada).

(k)

All notices and other communications (each referred to as the “Notice”) permitted or required to be given to any of the parties hereto will be in writing and may be delivered personally, by registered prepaid mail (except during an actual or threatened postal disruption) or sent by facsimile or e-mail transmission to the addresses, e-mail address or facsimile numbers indicated on the cover letter of this Agreement or to such other address or facsimile number as will be designated by such party by notice in writing to the other parties.

The Notice will be deemed to have been delivered:

in the case of personal delivery, when the Notice is delivered to the party receiving the Notice during business hours on a Business Day;

ii)

in the case of registered mail, on the second Business Day after the Notice was deposited in the mail; and

iii)

in the case of facsimile or electronic transmission, on the day the Notice was sent provided such notice is sent before 4:00 p.m. on a Business Day.

(l)

Unless otherwise specified, references in this Agreement to “$” and “dollars” mean Canadian dollars.

(m)

If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement, it is necessary to convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement in any currency other than the Judgment Currency, then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose, rate of exchange means the rate at which Lender would, on the relevant date, be prepared to sell a similar amount of such currency against the Judgment Currency, in accordance with normal banking procedures. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given and the date of payment of the amount due, Borrower will, on the date of payment, pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid on such day is the amount in the Judgment Currency which, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, is the amount then due under this Agreement in such other currency. Any additional amount due from Borrower under this paragraph will be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sums due in connection with this Agreement.

(n)

No Loan Party will assign any of its respective rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender. Lender will have the right to assign, sell or participate its rights and obligations in the Facilities to one or more Persons (“Participants”) without the consent of any Loan Party. For this purpose, Xxxxxx may disclose, on a confidential basis, to a potential Participant any information concerning the Loan Parties as Xxxxxx considers appropriate. Each Loan Party will execute any documentation and take any actions as Lender may reasonably request in connection with any assignment or participation. The provisions of this Agreement will be binding upon and enure to the benefit of each Loan Party and Lender and their successors and permitted assigns.

(o)

In addition to any other indemnity provided for in this Agreement, each Loan Party agrees to indemnify Lender and any receiver, receiver manager or similar Person appointed under Applicable Law, and their respective shareholders, affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents, and “Indemnified Party” means any one of the foregoing, on demand against any loss, expense or liability which such Indemnified Party may sustain or incur as a consequence of the action or inaction of any Loan Party whatsoever, including, without limitation:

any default in payment of the principal amount of any Borrowing or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable;

ii)

any failure to fulfill on or before any drawdown date the conditions precedent to any Borrowing as provided for in this Agreement, if as a result of that failure that Borrowing is not made on that date, including but not limited to any loss or expense sustained or incurred in liquidating or redeploying deposits or other funds contracted for or acquired or used to effect or maintain any part of that Borrowing ;

iii)

the occurrence of any applicable default;

iv)

any misrepresentation made by a Loan Party in this Agreement or in any instrument in writing delivered to Lender in connection with this Agreement;

any failure to comply with any Applicable Laws, including, without limitation, any environmental law; or


xXxxxx Technologies Services Inc.		October 22, 2021
Page 17

vi)

any default in the payment or performance of any covenant to pay or remit present or future taxes, or to make and remit withholdings or deductions with respect to any taxes or Priority Payables,

This indemnity will: (i) survive the repayment or cancellation of any of the Facilities or any termination of this Agreement; and (ii) not apply to any Indemnified Party to the extent directly caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party.

(p)

A Loan Party’s obligations under this section 14 continue even after all Facilities have been repaid and this Agreement has terminated.

(q)

Each accounting term used in this Agreement, unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, has the meaning assigned to it under GAAP consistently applied throughout the relevant period and relevant prior periods. If there occurs a change in generally accepted accounting principles (an “Accounting Change”), and such change would result in a material change in the calculation of any financial covenant, standard or term used in this Agreement, then at the request of Borrower or Lender, Borrower and Lender shall enter into negotiations to amend such provisions so as to reflect such Accounting Change with the result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of Borrower or any other party, as applicable, shall be the same after such Accounting Change, as if such Accounting Change had not occurred. If, however, within 30 days of the foregoing request by Borrower or Lender, Borrower and Lender have not reached agreement on such amendment, the method of calculation shall not be revised and all amounts to be determined shall be determined without giving effect to the Accounting Change. For the purposes of this Agreement, including for the purposes of any Financial Covenants pursuant to Section 8 hereof, any lease which would be accounted for under GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2018 (the “Change Date”) shall be, notwithstanding any subsequent change in GAAP, deemed to continue to be accounted for in the same manner as an operating lease was accounted for on the date hereof, notwithstanding and regardless of the implementation under GAAP of IFRS 16 (regardless of whether such lease is entered into or assumed before or after the Change Date), and, for certainty, any obligations incurred thereunder shall not constitute capital or financial lease transactions.

(r)

A Loan Party’s information, corporate or personal, may be subject to disclosure without its consent pursuant to provincial, federal, national or international laws as they apply to the product or service Borrower has with Lender or any third party acting on behalf of or contracting with Lender. The Loan Parties acknowledge that, pursuant to AML Laws, government sanction and “know your client” laws, Lender may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Loan Parties, their respective subsidiaries, directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons, in control of any Loan Party and the transactions contemplated thereby. The Loan Parties shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by Xxxxxx, or any prospective assignee or participant hereunder, in order to comply with applicable AML Laws, government sanction and “know your client” laws, whether now or hereafter in existence.

(s)

This Agreement will not merge upon the execution and delivery of any other Loan Documents, but will remain in full force and effect thereafter.

(t)

This Agreement supersedes and replaces all prior discussions, letters and agreements (if any) describing the terms and conditions of any Facility established by Xxxxxx in favour of Xxxxxxxx.

(u)

to its affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential);

ix)

to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (y) becomes available to Lender or any of their respective affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Borrower or other Loan Party.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Loan Parties relating to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the other Loan Parties; provided that, in the case of information received from Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Loan Parties after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

(v)

Each Loan Party will from time to time promptly upon request by Xxxxxx do and execute all acts and documents as may be reasonably required by Xxxxxx to give effect to the Facilities and the Loan Documents, and to any assignment or participation made by Lender pursuant to this Agreement.

(w)

If, after the date hereof, the introduction of or any change in any Applicable Law or in its interpretation or application of any Applicable Law by any court or by any governmental authority charged with the administration of any Applicable Law, makes it unlawful or prohibited for Lender to make, to fund or to maintain its commitment or any portion thereof or to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement (any such unlawful or prohibited funding, maintenance or performance being an “Unlawful Obligation”), then Lender may, by thirty days written notice to


xXxxxx Technologies Services Inc.		October 22, 2021
Page 19

Borrower (unless the provision of the Applicable Law requires earlier prepayment in which case the notice period will be that shorter period as required to comply with the Applicable Law), terminate its obligations under this Agreement or, at the option of Lender, terminate only those of its obligations under this Agreement that constitute Unlawful Obligations, and, in that event, Borrower will prepay Borrowings owing to Lender forthwith (or at the end of that period as Lender in its discretion agrees), without notice or penalty (other than breakage costs), together with all accrued but unpaid interest and fees as may be applicable to the date of payment, or Lender may, by written notice to Borrower, convert those Borrowings forthwith into another basis of Borrowing available under this Agreement if such other basis of Borrowing would not be an Unlawful Obligation.

(x)

Time shall be of the essence in all provisions of this Agreement.

(y)

This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties on any number of separate counterparts (whether in original ink, by facsimile or in another electronic format), and all those counterparts taken together will be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. The delivery of a facsimile or other electronic copy of an executed counterparty to this Agreement shall be deemed to be valid execution and delivery of this Agreement, but the party delivering such facsimile or other electronic copy shall make reasonable efforts to deliver an original copy of this Agreement as soon as possible after delivery of such facsimile or other electronic copy.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Alberta. Each of the Loan Parties and Lender irrevocably and unconditionally agree that any suit, action or other legal proceeding (collectively, a “Suit”) instituted by Xxxxxx and arising out of this Agreement shall be brought and adjudicated only in Alberta, and each Loan Party waives and agrees not to assert by way of motion, as a defence or otherwise at any such Suit, any claim that such Loan Party is not subject to the jurisdiction of the above courts, that such Suit is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such Suit is improper.
