(A) each such former holder of such transferred Company Subordinate Voting Shares shall be removed from the Company’s securities register for the Company Subordinate Voting Shares;

(B) the Purchaser shall be entered in the Company’s central securities register for the Company Subordinate Voting Shares as the legal owner of such transferred Company Subordinate Voting Shares; and

The Merger, together with the transactions described in this Section 3.1(h)(i) through (h)(x) is intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of sections 368(a)(1)(A) and 368(a)(2)(E) of the U.S. Tax Code for all United States federal income tax purposes, and the Amalgamation is intended to qualify as an amalgamation as defined in subsection 87(9) of the Tax Act, and upon the Merger becoming effective:

(A) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall survive the Merger as Mergeco;

(B) the properties, rights and interests and obligations of the Company shall continue to be the properties, rights and interests and obligations of Mergeco, and the Merger shall not constitute an assignment by operation of law, a transfer or any other disposition of the property, rights and interests of the Company to Mergeco;

(C) the separate legal existence of Purchaser Subco shall cease without Purchaser Subco being liquidated or wound up, and the property, rights and interests and obligations of Purchaser Subco shall become the property, rights and interests and obligations of Mergeco;

(E) the Notice of Articles and Articles of Mergeco shall be the same as the Notice of Articles and Articles of the Company, as altered in accordance with Section 3.1(e);

(F) each Company Subordinate Voting Share held by a Company Non-Canadian Shareholder immediately following the exchange in Section 3.1(h)(iii) (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include any Company Subordinate Voting Shares received by such Call Option Grantor upon the exchange in Section 3.1(h)(i)) shall, in accordance with the Purchaser Call Option, be transferred, and shall be deemed to be transferred, by the holder thereof to the Purchaser for the Purchaser Share Consideration (or, in the event a Purchaser Change of Control shall have occurred prior to the Acquisition Date, the Per Share Consideration), which Purchaser Share Consideration or Per Share Consideration, as applicable, shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Article 5, and each such former holder shall be deemed to have executed and delivered all consents, releases, assignments and waivers, statutory or otherwise, required to transfer such Company Subordinate Voting Shares in accordance with this Section 3.1(h)(vii)(F), and upon such transfer:

(I) each such former holder of such transferred Company Subordinate Voting Shares shall be removed from the Company’s central securities register for the Company Subordinate Voting Shares;

(II) the Purchaser shall be entered in Mergeco’s central securities register for the Mergeco Subordinate Voting Shares as the legal owner of such transferred Company Subordinate Voting Shares; and

(III) each such former holder of such transferred Company Subordinate Voting Shares shall, subject to Section 5.1, be entered in the Purchaser’s securities register for the Purchaser Shares in respect of the Consideration Shares issued to such holder pursuant to this Section 3.1(h)(vii)(F), or, to the extent applicable, in the securities register of the issuer of any Alternate Consideration that such former holder of Company Subordinate Voting Shares is entitled to receive in lieu of the Consideration Shares;

(G) each Purchaser Subco Share outstanding immediately prior to the Merger shall be exchanged for Mergeco Subordinate Voting Shares on the basis of one Mergeco Subordinate Voting Share for each Purchaser Subco Share;

(H) in consideration for the Purchaser issuing Consideration Shares to the Company Non-Canadian Shareholders in accordance with Section 3.1(h)(vii)(F), Mergeco shall issue to the Purchaser one Mergeco Subordinate Voting Share for each Purchaser Share issued by the Purchaser to the Company Non-Canadian Shareholders pursuant to Section 3.1(h)(vii)(F);

(I) the board of directors of Mergeco shall be comprised of a minimum of one and a maximum of 10 directors; and

(J) the amount added to the capital of the Purchaser Shares in respect of the Consideration Shares issued to Company Non-Canadian Shareholders pursuant to Section 3.1(h)(vii)(F) shall be equal to the product obtained when (I) the paid-up capital (within the meaning of the Tax Act) of the Company Subordinate Voting Shares immediately following the exchanges in Section 3.1(h)(i) and Section 3.1(h)(iii), is multiplied by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Company Subordinate Voting Shares transferred pursuant to Section  3.1(h)(vii)(F), and the denominator of which is the number of Company Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding immediately following the exchanges in Section 3.1(h)(i) and Section 3.1(h)(iii);

(viii) each Company Option shall be exchanged for a Replacement Option to acquire from the Purchaser such number of Purchaser Shares as is equal to: (A) the number of Company Subordinate Voting Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time (provided that if the foregoing would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Purchaser Share on any particular exercise of a Replacement Option, then the number of Purchaser Shares to otherwise be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number). Such Replacement Options shall provide for an exercise price per Replacement Option (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained when: (i) the exercise price per Company Subordinate Voting Share that would otherwise be payable pursuant to the Company Option it replaces is divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, and any document evidencing a Company Option shall thereafter evidence and be deemed to evidence such Replacement Option. Except as provided herein, all terms and conditions of a Replacement Option, including the term to expiry, conditions to and manner of exercising, will be the same as the Company Option for which it was exchanged, and shall be governed by the terms of the Purchaser Equity Incentive Plan, and the exchange shall not provide any optionee with any additional benefits as compared to those under his or her original Company Option. It is intended that subsection 7(1.4) of Tax Act and Sections 1.424-1(a)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations, as applicable, apply to such exchange of Company Options. Accordingly, and notwithstanding the foregoing, if required, the exercise price of a Replacement Option will be increased such that the Replacement Option In-The-Money Amount immediately after the exchange does not exceed the Company Option In-The-Money Amount of the Company Option (or a fraction thereof) exchanged for such Replacement Option immediately before the exchange and so on a share-by-share basis, the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the Company Options being exchanged shall not be less favourable to the optionee than the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the Replacement Options immediately following the exchange;

(ix) each Company Compensation Option shall be exchanged for a Replacement Compensation Option to acquire from the Purchaser such number of Purchaser Shares as is equal to: (A) the number of Company Subordinate Voting Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Compensation Option immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time (provided that if the foregoing would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Purchaser Share on any particular exercise of a Replacement Compensation Option, then the number of Purchaser Shares to otherwise be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number). Such Replacement Compensation Option shall provide for an exercise price per Replacement Compensation Option (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained when: (i) the exercise price per Company Subordinate Voting Share that would otherwise be payable pursuant to the Company Compensation Option it replaces is divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, and any document evidencing a Company Compensation Option shall thereafter evidence and be deemed to evidence such Replacement Compensation Option. Except as provided herein, all terms and conditions of a Replacement Compensation Option, including the term to expiry, conditions to and manner of exercising, will be the same as the Company Compensation Option for which it was exchanged, and the exchange shall not provide any optionee with any additional benefits as compared to those under his or her original Company Compensation Option; and

(x) each Company RSU shall be exchanged for a Replacement RSU to acquire from the Purchaser such number of Purchaser Shares as is equal to: (A) the number of Company Subordinate Voting Shares that were issuable upon vesting of such Company RSU immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time (provided that if the foregoing would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Purchaser Share on any particular conversion of a Replacement RSU, then the number of Purchaser Shares to otherwise be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number). Such Replacement RSU shall provide for a conversion price per Replacement RSU (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained when: (i) the conversion price per Company Subordinate Voting Share that would otherwise be applicable pursuant to the Company RSU it replaces is divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, and any document evidencing a Company RSU shall thereafter evidence and be deemed to evidence such Replacement RSU. Except as provided herein, all terms and conditions of a Replacement RSU, including the term to expiry, conditions to and manner of exercising, will be the same as the Company RSU for which it was exchanged, and the exchange shall not provide any holder with any additional benefits as compared to those under his or her original Company RSU.

3.2 Letter of Transmittal.

The Company shall cause the Depositary to send a Letter of Transmittal to each Company Shareholder within 15 Business Days following the receipt by the Depositary of a Purchaser Call Option Exercise Notice or a Triggering Event Notice, as the case may be.

3.3 U.S. Tax Treatment.

The Company and Purchaser intend that for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (and applicable state and local Tax purposes) (i) the Option Premium paid by the Purchaser to an Effective Time Company Shareholder, Effective Time High Street Holder or Effective Time USCo2 Class B Shareholder will not be includible in income of such Effective Time Company Shareholder, Effective Time High Street Holder or Effective Time USCo2 Class B Shareholder until the earlier of: (A) (i) the sale or disposition of such Effective Time Company Shareholder’s Company Shares to any person other than the Purchaser, (ii) the sale or disposition of such Effective Time High Street Holder’s Common Membership Units to any person other than the Purchaser; (iii) the sale or disposition of such Effective Time USCo2 Class B Shareholder Shares to any person other than the Purchaser, (B) (i) the acquisition of such Effective Time Company Shareholder’s Company Shares, (ii) the acquisition of such Effective Time High Street Holder’s Common Membership Units; (iii) the acquisition of such Effective Time USCo2 Class B Holder’s USCo2 Class B Shares; or (C) the lapse or termination of the Purchaser Call Option, and (ii) the Merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Sections 368(a)(1)(A) and (a)(2)(E) of the U.S. Tax Code. Subject to applicable Law, upon the occurrence of such transaction, the Purchaser and the Company will file all Tax Returns pursuant to the Purchaser Call Option in a manner consistent with such intent.

3.4 Canadian Tax Treatment.

The Company and the Purchaser intend that for Canadian federal income Tax purposes (and applicable provincial Tax purposes) the Merger will qualify as an amalgamation as defined in subsection 87(9) of the Tax Act.

3.5 No Fractional Purchaser Shares.

No fractional Purchaser Shares will be issued to any Person in connection with this Plan of Arrangement. Where the aggregate number of Purchaser Shares to be issued to a Company Shareholder pursuant to this Arrangement would otherwise result in a fraction of a Purchaser Share being issuable, then the aggregate number of Purchaser Shares to be issued to such Company Shareholder shall be rounded down to the closest whole number and no compensation shall be payable to such Company Shareholder in lieu of any such fractional Purchaser Share.

Article 4 RIGHTS OF DISSENT

Pursuant to the Interim Order, each registered Company Shareholder may exercise rights of dissent (“Dissent Rights”) under Section 238 of the BCBCA and in the manner set forth in Sections 242 to 247 of the BCBCA, all as modified by this Article 4 as the same may be modified by the Interim Order or the Final Order in respect of the Arrangement, provided that the written notice of dissent to the Arrangement Resolution contemplated by Section 242 of the BCBCA must be sent to and received by the Company not later than 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the Business Day that is two Business Days before the Company Meeting.  Company Shareholders who validly exercise such rights of dissent and who:

(a) are ultimately determined to be entitled to be paid fair value by the Purchaser, for the Dissenting Shares in respect of which they have exercised Dissent Rights, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 245 of the BCBCA, will be deemed to have irrevocably transferred such Dissenting Shares to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.1(a) in consideration of such fair value, and in no case will the Company or the Purchaser or any other Person be required to recognize such holders as holders of Company Shares after the Effective Time, and each Dissenting Company Shareholder will cease to be entitled to the rights of a Company Shareholder in respect of the Company Shares in relation to which such Dissenting Company Shareholder has exercised Dissent Rights and the securities register of the Company will be amended to reflect that such former holder is no longer the holder of such Company Shares as at and from the Effective Time; or

(b) are ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for the Dissenting Shares in respect of which they have exercised Dissent Rights, will be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a Company Shareholder who has not exercised Dissent Rights.

In addition to any other restrictions set forth in the BCBCA, none of the following Persons shall be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights: (i) Company Optionholders (with respect to any Company Options); (ii) Company RSU Holders (with respect to any Company RSUs); (iii) Company Compensation Option Holders (with respect to any Company Compensation Options); and (iv) Company Shareholders who vote in favour of, or who have instructed a proxyholder to vote in favour of, the Arrangement Resolution.

Article 5 CERTIFICATES AND PAYMENTS

5.1 Payment and Delivery of Consideration.

(a) Following receipt of the Final Order and prior to the Effective Date, the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Payment Agent, by wire transfer in immediately available funds, an amount sufficient to pay the Aggregate Option Premium payable by the Purchaser to: (i) the Effective Time Company Shareholders in accordance with Section 3.1(c);   and (ii) the Effective Time High Street Holders and Effective Time USCo2 Class B Shareholders  in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement Agreement.

(b) Following receipt by the Depositary of a Purchaser Call Option Exercise Notice or a Triggering Event Notice, as the case may be, and prior to the Acquisition Date, the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Depositary a sufficient number of Purchaser Shares (or, to the extent applicable, any Alternate Consideration) to satisfy the Purchaser’s obligation to issue Consideration Shares (or, to the extent applicable, any Alternate Consideration) to Company Shareholders in accordance with Sections 3.1(h)(v) and 3.1(h)(vii)(F).

(c) Upon surrender to the Depositary for cancellation of a certificate which immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time represented outstanding Company Shares, together with a duly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal and such additional documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Depositary shall deliver to such Company Shareholder(s), a certificate representing the Consideration Shares (or, to the extent applicable, securities representing any Alternate Consideration) which such holder is entitled to receive, which Consideration Shares (or, to the extent applicable, securities representing any Alternate Consideration) will be registered in such name or names and either (A) delivered to the address or addresses as such Company Shareholder directed in their Letter of Transmittal; or (B) made available for pick up at the office of the Depositary in accordance with the instructions of the Company Shareholder in the Letter of Transmittal, and any certificate representing Company Shares so surrendered shall forthwith thereafter be cancelled.

(d) Until surrendered as contemplated by Section 5.1(c), each certificate that immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time represented Company Shares shall be deemed after the Acquisition Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Consideration Shares (or, to the extent applicable, any Alternate Consideration) in lieu of such certificate as contemplated in Section 5.1(c), less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 5.3. Any such certificate formerly representing Company Shares not duly surrendered on or before the sixth anniversary of the Acquisition Date shall cease to represent a claim by or interest of any former Company Shareholder of any kind or nature against or in the Company or the Purchaser. On such date, all Consideration Shares (or, to the extent applicable, securities representing any Alternate Consideration) to which such Company Shareholder was entitled shall be deemed to have been surrendered to the Purchaser and shall be paid over by the Depositary to the Purchaser or as directed by the Purchaser.

5.4 No Liens.

Any exchange or transfer of securities pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement, including the surrender of Company Shares by Dissenting Company Shareholders, shall be free and clear of any Liens or other claims of third parties of any kind.

Each Proportionate Voting Share shall be convertible at the option of the holder into such number of Subordinate Voting Shares as is determined by multiplying the number of Proportionate Voting Shares in respect of which the Share Conversion Right is exercised by 40. Fractions of Proportionate Voting Shares may be converted into such number of Subordinate Voting Shares as is determined by multiplying the fraction by 40.

Each Multiple Voting Share shall be convertible at the option of the holder into such number of Subordinate Voting Shares as is determined by multiplying the number of Multiple Voting Shares in respect of which the Share Conversion Right is exercised by one. Fractions of Multiple Voting Shares may be converted into such number of Subordinated Voting Shares as is determined by multiplying the fraction by one.

(c) Conversion Limitation. Unless already appointed, upon receipt of a Conversion Notice (as defined below), the directors (or a committee thereof) shall designate an officer of the Company who shall determine whether the Conversion Limitation set forth in this Article shall apply to the conversion referred to therein (the “Conversion Limitation Officer”).

(d) Foreign Private Issuer Status. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain its status as a “foreign private issuer” (as determined in accordance with Rule 3b-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Accordingly, the Company shall not give effect to any voluntary conversion of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares pursuant to this Article 27.8 or otherwise, and the Share Conversion Right will not apply, to the extent that after giving effect to all permitted issuances after such conversion of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares, the aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares, Proportionate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares (calculated on the basis that each Subordinate Voting Share, Proportionate Voting Share and Multiple Voting Share is counted once, without regard to the number of votes carried by such share) held of record, directly or indirectly, by residents of the United States (as determined in accordance with Rules 3b-4 and 12g3-2(a) under the Exchange Act (“U.S. Residents”) would exceed 40% (the “40% Threshold”) of the aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares, Multiple Voting Shares, Proportionate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares (calculated on the same basis) issued and outstanding (the “FPI Restriction”). The directors may by resolution increase the 40% Threshold to a number not to exceed 50%, and if any such resolution is adopted, all references to the 40% Threshold herein shall refer instead to the amended percentage threshold set by the directors in such resolution.

(e) Conversion Limitation. In order to give effect to the FPI Restriction, the number of Subordinate Voting Shares issuable to a holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares upon exercise by such holder of the Share Conversion Right will be subject to the 40% Threshold based on the number of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares held by such holder as of the date of issuance of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares to such holder, and thereafter at the end of each of the Company’s subsequent fiscal quarters (each, a “Determination Date”), calculated as follows:

X = [A x 40% - B] x (C/D)

Where, on the Determination Date:

X = Maximum Number of Subordinate Voting Shares which may be issued upon exercise of the Share Conversion Right.

A = Aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares, Proportionate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares issued and outstanding.

B = Aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares, Proportionate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares held of record, directly or indirectly, by U.S. Residents.

C = Aggregate Number of Proportionate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares held by such holder.

D = Aggregate Number of All Proportionate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares.

The Conversion Limitation Officer shall determine as of each Determination Date, in his or her sole discretion acting reasonably, the aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares, Proportionate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares held of record, directly or indirectly, by U.S. Residents, the maximum number of Subordinate Voting Shares which may be issued upon exercise of the Share Conversion Right, generally in accordance with the formula set forth immediately above. Upon request by a holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares, the Company will provide each holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares with notice of such maximum number as at the most recent Determination Date, or a more recent date as may be determined by the Conversion Limitation Officer in its discretion. To the extent that issuances of Subordinate Voting Shares on exercise of the Share Conversion Right would result in the 40% Threshold being exceeded, the number of Subordinate Voting Shares to be issued will be prorated among each holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares exercising the Share Conversion Right.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles 27.8(d) and (e), the directors may by resolution waive the application of the Conversion Restriction to any exercise or exercises of the Share Conversion Right to which the Conversion Restriction would otherwise apply, or to future Conversion Restrictions generally, including with respect to a period of time.

(f) Disputes.

(i) Any holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares who beneficially owns more than 5% of the issued and outstanding Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares may submit a written dispute as to the calculation of the 40% Threshold or the FPI Restriction by the Conversion Limitation Officer to the directors with the basis for the disputed calculations. The Company shall respond to the holder within five business days of receipt of the notice of such dispute with a written calculation of the 40% Threshold or the FPI Restriction, as applicable. If the holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such calculation of the 40% Threshold or the FPI Restriction, as applicable, within five business days of such response, then the Company and the holder shall, within one business day thereafter submit the disputed calculation of the 40% Threshold or the FPI Restriction to the Company’s independent auditor. The Company, at the Company’s expense, shall cause the auditor to perform the calculations in dispute and notify the Company and the holder of the results no later than five business days from the time it receives the disputed calculations. The auditor’s calculations shall be final and binding on all parties, absent demonstrable error.

(ii) In the event of a dispute as to the number of Subordinate Voting Shares issuable to a holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares in connection with a voluntary conversion of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares, the Company shall issue to the holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares the number of Subordinate Voting Shares not in dispute, and resolve such dispute in accordance with Article 27.8(f)(i).

(g) Mechanics of Conversion. Before any holder of Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares shall be entitled to voluntarily convert Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares into Subordinate Voting Shares in accordance with Articles 27.8(a) or (b), the holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing the Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares to be converted at the head office of the Company, or the office of any transfer agent for the Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares, and shall give written notice to the Company at its head office of his or her election to convert such Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates representing the Subordinate Voting Shares are to be issued (a “Conversion Notice”). The Company shall (or shall cause its transfer agent to) as soon as practicable thereafter, issue to such holder or his or her nominee, a certificate or certificates or direct registration statement representing the number of Subordinate Voting Shares to which such holder is entitled upon conversion. Such conversion shall be deemed to have taken place immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which the certificate or certificates representing the Proportionate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares to be converted is surrendered and the Conversion Notice is delivered, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Subordinate Voting Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the holder or holders of record of such Subordinate Voting Shares as of such date.
