Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Canadian Agent shall have the right at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to notify, or require any Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to any such amounts of the existence of the security interest created hereby.

SECTION 5

FURTHER ASSURANCES; ADDITIONAL GRANTORS

5.1 Further Assurances

(a)

Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such Grantor, that it shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the Canadian Agent may reasonably request, in order to create and/or maintain the validity, perfection or priority of and protect any security interest granted hereby or to enable the Canadian Agent to exercise and

- 26 -

enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor shall:

	(i)		file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and execute and deliver such other agreements, instruments, endorsements, powers of attorney or notices, as the Canadian Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interests granted or purported to be granted hereby; and

	(ii)		take all actions necessary to ensure the recordation of appropriate evidence of the liens and security interest granted hereunder in the Intellectual Property with any intellectual property registry in which said Intellectual Property is registered or in which an application for registration is pending including, without limitation, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office.

	(b)		Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Canadian Agent to file a Record or Records, including, without limitation, financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, in any jurisdictions and with any filing offices as the Canadian Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary to perfect the security interest granted to the Canadian Agent herein. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Canadian Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Canadian Agent herein, including, without limitation, describing such property as “all assets” or “all personal property”, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

	(c)		Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Canadian Agent to modify this Agreement after obtaining such Grantor’s approval of or signature to such modification by amending Schedule 4.10 to include reference to any right, title or interest in any existing Intellectual Property or any Intellectual Property acquired or developed by any Grantor after the execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any Intellectual Property in which any Grantor no longer has or claims any right, title or interest.

5.2 Additional Grantors

From time to time subsequent to the date hereof, additional Persons may become parties hereto as additional Grantors (each, an “Additional Grantor”), by executing a Counterpart Agreement. Upon delivery of any such Counterpart Agreement to the Canadian Agent, notice of which is hereby waived by Grantors, each Additional Grantor shall be a Grantor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if Additional Grantor were an original signatory hereto. Each Grantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Grantor hereunder, nor by any election of the Canadian Agent not to cause any Subsidiary of Company to become an Additional Grantor hereunder. This Agreement shall be fully effective as to any Grantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Grantor hereunder.

- 27 -

SECTION 6

CANADIAN AGENT APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

6.1 Power of Attorney

To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Canadian Agent (such appointment being made for consideration and coupled with an interest) as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, the Canadian Agent or otherwise, from time to time, to take any of the following actions:

	(a)		upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor or paid to the Canadian Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement;

	(b)		upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to ask for, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

	(c)		upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (b) above;

	(d)		upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Canadian Agent may reasonably request for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Canadian Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;

	(e)		to prepare and file any PPSA financing statements and any amendments thereto against such Grantor as debtor;

	(f)		to prepare, sign, and file for recordation in any intellectual property registry, appropriate evidence of the lien and security interest granted herein in the Intellectual Property in the name of such Grantor as debtor;

	(g)		upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to perform or comply or cause performance or compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, access to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than Permitted Liens) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by the Canadian Agent in its sole discretion, any such payments made by the Canadian Agent to become obligations of such Grantor to the Canadian Agent, due and payable immediately without demand; and

	(h)		upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, make any agreement with respect to or

- 28 -

otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Canadian Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Canadian Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that the Canadian Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Canadian Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.


6.2		No Duty on the Part of Canadian Agent or Secured Parties

The powers conferred on the Canadian Agent hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Canadian Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Canadian Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

SECTION 7

REMEDIES


7.1		Generally

(a)

If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Canadian Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of the Canadian Agent on default under the PPSA to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

	(i)		require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly upon request of the Canadian Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Canadian Agent and make it available to the Canadian Agent at a place to be designated by the Canadian Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties;

	(ii)		enter onto the property owned or leased by any Grantor where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

	(iii)		prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Canadian Agent deems appropriate; and

	(iv)		without notice except as specified below or under the PPSA, sell, assign, lease, license, sub-license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or

- 29 -

otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Canadian Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Canadian Agent may deem commercially reasonable.

(b)

The Canadian Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent to the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the PPSA and the Canadian Agent, as Canadian Agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the PPSA, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Canadian Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Canadian Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Canadian Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Canadian Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet, intranet or extranet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any claims against the Canadian Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Canadian Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, Grantors shall be liable for the deficiency and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Canadian Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Canadian Agent, that the Canadian Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) and agrees not to assert any

- 30-

defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way alter the rights of the Canadian Agent hereunder.

	(c)		The Canadian Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Canadian Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

	(d)		The Canadian Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

	(e)		The Canadian Agent may appoint or reappoint by instrument in writing, any Person or Persons, whether an officer, employee, agent or other representative of the Canadian Agent or not, to be a receiver or receivers (hereinafter called a “Receiver”, which term when used herein shall include a receiver and/or manager and any permutation thereof) of any Collateral of any Grantor (including any interest, income, profits or Proceeds therefrom) and may remove any Receiver so appointed and appoint another in his/her/their stead. Any such Receiver shall, so far as concerns responsibility for his/her/their acts, be deemed the agent of any Grantor and not the Canadian Agent, and Canadian Agent shall not be in any way responsible for any misconduct, negligence or non-feasance on the part of any such Receiver, his/her/their servants, agents, employees or other representatives. Subject to the provisions of the instrument appointing such Receiver, any such Receiver shall have the power to take possession of the Collateral, to preserve the Collateral or its value, to carry on or concur in carrying on all or any part of the business of any Grantor and to sell, lease, licence, sub-licence or otherwise dispose of or concur in selling, leasing, licensing, sub-licensing or otherwise disposing of the Collateral. To facilitate the foregoing powers, any such Receiver may, to the exclusion of all others, including such Grantor, enter upon, use and occupy all premises owned or occupied by such Grantor wherein the Collateral may be situate, maintain Collateral upon such premises, borrow money on a secured or unsecured basis and use the Collateral directly in carrying on such Grantor’s business or as security for loans or advances to enable the Receiver to carry on such Grantor’s business or otherwise, as such Receiver shall, in its discretion, determine. Except as may be otherwise directed by any Grantor, all money received from time to time by such Receiver in carrying out his/her/their appointment shall be received in trust for and paid over to the Canadian Agent. Every such Receiver may, in the discretion of the Canadian Agent, be vested with all or any of the rights and powers of the Canadian Agent. The Canadian Agent, may, either directly or through its agents or nominees, exercise any or all powers and rights given to a Receiver by virtue of the foregoing provisions of this Section.


7.2		Application of Proceeds

All proceeds received by the Canadian Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the

- 31 -

Canadian Agent against, the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.


7.3		Sales on Credit

If the Canadian Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by the Canadian Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Canadian Agent may resell the Collateral and Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.


7.4		Investment Related Property

Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws, the Canadian Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Investment Related Property conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Investment Related Property under such securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Related Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under applicable securities laws) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Canadian Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Investment Related Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under applicable securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If the Canadian Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Investment Related Property, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Stock to be sold hereunder, each partnership and each limited liability company from time to time to furnish to the Canadian Agent all such information as the Canadian Agent may request in order to determine the number and nature of interest, shares or other instruments included in the Investment Related Property which may be sold by the Canadian Agent in exempt transactions under applicable securities laws.


7.5		Intellectual Property

(a)

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(i)

the Canadian Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Grantor, the Canadian Agent or otherwise, in the Canadian Agent’s sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property, in which event such Grantor shall, at the request of the Canadian Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by the Canadian Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Canadian Agent as provided in the Credit Agreement hereof in connection with the exercise of its rights under this

- 32 -

Section, and, to the extent that the Canadian Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property as provided in this Section, each Grantor agrees to use all reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement or other violation of any of such Grantor’s rights in the Intellectual Property that is material to the business by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing as shall be necessary to prevent such infringement or violation; and

(ii)

the Canadian Agent shall have the right to notify, or require each Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property, of the existence of the security interest created herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to the Canadian Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done;

	(1)		all amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received for the benefit of the Canadian Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to the Canadian Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by Section 7.6 hereof; and

	(2)		Grantor shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.

(b)

If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to the Canadian Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Grantor, the Canadian Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Canadian Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by the Canadian Agent; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Canadian Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Canadian Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided

- 33 -

further, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or on behalf of the Canadian Agent and the Secured Parties.

(c)

Solely for the purpose of enabling the Canadian Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 7 and at such time as the Canadian Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Canadian Agent, to the extent it has the right to do so, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), subject, in the case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of said Trademarks, to use, operate under, license, or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located.


7.6		Cash Proceeds

Any proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other non-cash items received by the Canadian Agent (i) if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be turned over to the Grantor and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, may, in the sole discretion of the Canadian Agent, (A) be held by the Canadian Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and/or (B) then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Canadian Agent against the Secured Obligations then due and owing.

SECTION 8

CANADIAN AGENT

The Canadian Agent has been appointed to act as the Canadian Agent hereunder by the Canadian Lenders and, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof, the other Canadian Secured Parties. The Canadian Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Canadian Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Canadian Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Canadian Agent for the benefit of Canadian Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Section. The Canadian Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Canadian Lenders and the Grantors, and the Canadian Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Grantors and the Canadian Agent signed by the Requisite Lenders holding more than 50% of the outstanding Commitments under the Credit Agreement. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Canadian Agent, following receipt of the Grantors’ consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or

- 34 -

delayed and which shall not be required while an Event of Default exists), to appoint a successor Canadian Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Canadian Agent hereunder by a successor Canadian Agent, that successor Canadian Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Canadian Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring or removed Canadian Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Canadian Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Canadian Agent under this Agreement, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Canadian Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Canadian Agent of the security interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Canadian Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Canadian Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Canadian Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Canadian Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9

CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF LOANS

This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations, the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation or expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit, be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Canadian Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Canadian Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any Loans held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to Lenders herein or otherwise. Upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than unmatured indemnification obligations), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation or expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors. Upon any such termination the Canadian Agent shall, at Grantors’ expense, execute and deliver to Grantors such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

SECTION 10

STANDARD OF CARE; CANADIAN AGENT MAY PERFORM

The powers conferred on the Canadian Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Canadian Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Canadian Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if

- 35 -

such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Canadian Agent accords its own property. Neither the Canadian Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or otherwise. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Canadian Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Canadian Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Grantor under Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 11

MISCELLANEOUS

Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement. No failure or delay on the part of the Canadian Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Canadian Agent and Grantors and their respective successors and assigns. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Canadian Agent given in accordance with the Credit Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Grantors and the Canadian Agent and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Credit Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

The parties hereto declare that they require that this Agreement and any related documents be drawn up and executed in English only; les parties soussignées déclarent qu’elles exigent que cet acte et tous les documents s’y rattachant soient rédigés en anglais seulement.

- 36 -

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO AND THE FEDERAL LAWS OF CANADA APPLICABLE THEREIN, PROVIDED THAT THE PLEDGE AND HYPOTHECATION GRANTED UNDER SECTION 2.1 ABOVE AND PERFECTION UNDER SECTION 2.4 ABOVE SHALL ONLY BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC IN ORDER TO CREATE A VALID LIEN, PLEDGE AND HYPOTHEC WITH RESPECT TO INVESTMENT RELATED PROPERTY UNDER THE CIVIL CODE OF QUEBEC.

[REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Grantor and the Canadian Agent have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.
