(v) if the Parent and the Purchaser have offered to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement during the Right to Match Period pursuant to Section 7.2(6), the Board of Directors has determined in accordance with Section 7.2(6) that such Acquisition Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against the Arrangement as it is proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period; and

(vi) prior to or simultaneously with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(iv)(a) [Definitive Agreement for Superior Proposal], the Company pays the Company Termination Payment prescribed by Section 8.2(1) (which can be satisfied by paying the amount in trust to Canadian counsel for the Parent named in Section 9.2).

(6)        During the Right to Match Period, the Parent and the Purchaser will have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to offer to amend the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement, and the Company shall cooperate with the Parent and the Purchaser with respect thereto, including negotiating in good faith with the Parent and the Purchaser to enable the Parent and the Purchaser to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Arrangement as the Parent and the Purchaser deem appropriate and as would permit the Parent and the Purchaser to proceed with the Arrangement and any related transactions on such adjusted terms and applying for SADI Approval for any adjusted terms. The Board of Directors will review any such offer by the Parent and the Purchaser to amend the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement in order to determine, in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, whether the Parent and the Purchaser’s offer to amend the Arrangement and this Agreement, upon its acceptance, would result in the applicable Acquisition Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against the Arrangement as it is proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period. If the Board of Directors so determines that the applicable Acquisition Proposal would cease to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against the Arrangement as it is proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period, the Parent and the Purchaser will apply for SADI Approval of the adjusted terms and, if granted, amend the terms of the Arrangement and the Company. The Parent and Purchaser

-41-

may not withdraw their offer to make such amendment to the terms of the Arrangement while such SADI Approval is pending and on the grant of that SADI approval the Parent and the Purchaser shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement reflecting the offer by the Parent and the Purchaser to amend the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement.

(7)        The Board of Directors will promptly reaffirm its Company Recommendation by press release after (i) any Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced or made and the Board of Directors determines it is not a Superior Proposal, (ii) the Board of Directors determines that a proposed amendment to the terms of the Arrangement pursuant to Section 7.2(6) would result in an Acquisition Proposal not being a Superior Proposal when assessed against the Arrangement as it is proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period, and the Parent and the Purchaser have so amended the terms of the Arrangement in accordance with Section 7.2(6), or (iii) the Purchaser, acting reasonably, requests in writing reaffirmation of such Company Recommendation by the Board of Directors (expectexcept that if the Company advises the Purchaser that it intends to make or has made a submission for SADI Approval of an Acquisition Proposal such reaffirmation is not required to be provided until such submission has been processed and a final determination made as to whether to provide the SADI Approval). The Parent and the Purchaser will be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such press release.

(8)        Each additional amendment to any Acquisition Proposal that results in an increase in, or modification of, the consideration (or value of such consideration) to be received by the Shareholders or otherwise constitutes a material amendment to the Acquisition Proposal will constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 7.2, and the Parent and the Purchaser shall be afforded a new Right to Match Period in respect of each such new Acquisition Proposal from the date the Superior Proposal Notice was received by the Parent in respect of such new Acquisition Proposal. In the event the Company provides the notice contemplated by Section 7.2(3) on a date which is less than ten days prior to the Company Meeting, the Purchaser shall be entitled to require the Company to adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to a date that is not more than ten days after the scheduled date of the Company Meeting, provided that in no event shall such adjourned or postponed meeting be held on a date less than five business days prior to the Outside Date. In the event the Company provides the notice contemplated by Section 7.2(5), the Purchaser shall be entitled to require the Company to adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting to a date that is not less than five business days after the Right to Match Period has expired, provided that in no event shall such adjourned or postponed meeting be held less than five business days prior to the Outside Date. In the event the Company receives any proposal, inquiry, offer or request which could relate to or constitute an Acquisition Proposal on a date which is less than 45 days prior to the Company Meeting, the Board of Directors shall be entitled, notwithstanding any rights of the Purchaser granted in this section, to adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting to a date that is not more than 45 days after the scheduled date

-42-

of the Company Meeting, provided that in no event shall such adjourned or postponed meeting be held on a date less than five business days prior to the Outside Date.

(9)        Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Board of Directors from issuing a directors’ circular or otherwise responding as required by Laws to an Acquisition Proposal or from calling and holding a meeting of Shareholders requisitioned by Shareholders pursuant to the BCBCA or ordered to be held by a court pursuant to the BCBCA.

7.3 Information Rights

The Parent and the Purchaser acknowledge having completed their due diligence investigation of the Company, but, for informational purposes only the Company agrees, upon reasonable notice, to continue to provide the Purchaser and its Representatives with reasonable access without unreasonable disruption to the conduct of the Company’s business during normal business hours to the books, records, information and files in the Company’s possession and control, and access (upon reasonable advance notice during normal business hours and with, at the Company’s option, a Company representative present) to its personnel on an as requested basis, as well as reasonable access to the properties of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries, for strategic planning purposes; provided, however, that no such access shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations of the Parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement. The Company shall cooperate with the Parent and the Purchaser to promptly provide, without unreasonable disruption to the conduct of the Company’s business, any information that they reasonably request. The foregoing shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and nothing in the foregoing shall require the Company to disclose information which it is prohibited from disclosing pursuant to Law.

7.4 Shareholder Claims

The Company shall promptly notify the Purchaser and the Parent of any claim brought by (or threatened to be brought by) any present, former or purported holder of any securities of the Company in connection with any of the Transactions. The Company shall consult with the Purchaser and the Parent prior to settling any such claim and shall not settle or compromise, or agree to settle or compromise, any such claim without the prior written consent of the Parent and the Purchaser.

DISSENT RIGHTS

4.1 Rights of Dissent

Each registered Shareholder may exercise rights of dissent (“Dissent Rights”) pursuant to and in the manner set forth under Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA, the Interim Order and this Article 4 in connection with the Arrangement, provided that the written objection to the Arrangement Resolution contemplated by Section 242 of the BCBCA must be sent to and received by the Company at least two days before the Company Meeting. Shareholders who duly exercise such Dissent Rights 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, will be deemed to have irrevocably transferred such Dissenting Shares to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.1(f) in consideration of such fair value; 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 Shareholder who has not exercised Dissent Rights, as at and from the time specified in Section 3.1(f) and be entitled to receive only the consideration set forth in Section 3.1(e);

but in no case will the Company or the Purchaser or any other person be required to recognize such holders as holders of Shares after the completion of the steps set forth in Section 3.1, and each Dissenting Shareholder will cease to be entitled to the rights of a Shareholder in respect of the Shares in relation to which such Dissenting Shareholder has exercised Dissent Rights and the central securities register of the Company will be amended to reflect that such former holder is no longer the holder of such Shares as and from the completion of the steps in Section 3.1. For greater certainty, and in addition to any other restriction under Section 242 of the BCBCA, no Optionholder or RSU holder, or a Shareholder who has voted (or instructed a proxyholder to vote) in favour of the Arrangement Resolution, will be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights.

ARTICLE 5.

CERTIFICATES AND PAYMENTS

5.1 Payments

(a)        Following the receipt of the Final Order and before the Effective Date the Purchaser will deposit or arrange to be deposited cash with the Depositary in the aggregate amount equal to payments in respect of Shares required by this Plan of Arrangement to be paid by the Purchaser (calculated without reference to whether any Shareholder has exercised Dissent Rights), which cash will be held by the Depositary for distribution to the Shareholders in accordance with the provisions of the Plan;

(b)        At the Effective Time, the Company will pay the amounts, net of applicable withholdings, to be paid to holders of Options and RSUs under Sections 3.1(a) and 3.1(c) either (i) pursuant to the normal payroll practices and procedures of the Company, or (ii)

(d)        Subject to Section 5.3, until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 5.1, each certificate which immediately before the Effective Time represented Shares will be deemed after the time described in Section 3.1 to represent only the right to receive from the Depositary upon such surrender the Share Consideration or in the case of a Dissenting Shareholder who is ultimately determined to be entitled to be paid the fair value of the Shares in respect of which they have validly exercised Dissent Rights, the fair value of their Shares, less in each case any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 5.4.

(e)        The Company and the Purchaser will cause the Depositary, as soon as a former holder of Shares becomes entitled to the Share Consideration in accordance with Section 5.1(c), to:

(i)        forward or cause to be forwarded to such former holder at the address specified in the Letter of Transmittal;

(ii)        if requested by such former holder in the Letter of Transmittal make available at the offices of the Depositary specified in the Letter of Transmittal; or

5.2 Loss of Certificates

B - 9

to receive pursuant to Section 3.1 in accordance with the instructions in such holder’s Letter of Transmittal. When authorizing such payment in relation to any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the former holder of such Share will, as a condition precedent to the delivery of such Share Consideration give a bond satisfactory to the Company, the Purchaser and the Depositary in such sum as the Purchaser may direct or otherwise indemnify the Company and the Purchaser in a manner satisfactory to the Company and the Purchaser against any claim that may be made against the Company or the Purchaser with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

5.3 Extinction of Rights

If any former holder of Shares fails to deliver to the Depositary the certificates, documents or instruments required to be delivered to the Depositary under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 in order for such former holder to receive the Share Consideration which such former holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1, on or before the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date (i) such former holder will be deemed to have donated and forfeited to the Purchaser or its successor any Share Consideration (including any interest accrued thereon) held by the Depositary in trust for such former holder to which such former holder is entitled and (ii) any certificate representing Shares formerly held by such former holder will cease to represent a claim of any nature whatsoever and will be deemed to have been surrendered to the Purchaser and will be cancelled. Neither the Company nor the Purchaser, or any of their respective successors, will be liable to any person in respect of any Share Consideration (including any consideration previously held by the Depositary in trust for any such former holder) which is forfeited to the Company or the Purchaser or delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

5.4 Withholding Rights

Subject to the provisions of any applicable income tax treaty between Canada and the country where the recipient is resident, the Company, the Purchaser and the Depositary will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable to any Shareholder, Optionholder or RSU holder under this Plan of Arrangement (including any payment to Dissenting Shareholders) such amounts as the Company, the Purchaser or the Depositary may be required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment or deliverable under the Tax Act, the U.S. Tax Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of any provincial, state, local or foreign tax Law. For the purposes hereof, all such withheld amounts will be treated as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made on account of the obligation to make payment to such person hereunder, provided that such deducted or withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority by or on behalf of the Company, the Purchaser or the Depositary, as the case may be.

5.5 No Liens

Any exchange or transfer of securities pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement will be free and clear of any Liens or other claims of third parties of any kind.
