All such Parent Common Shares shall be duly authorized and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance. In consideration of the issuance and delivery of each such Parent Common Share, Exchangeco, shall issue to the Parent, or as the Parent shall direct, common shares of Exchangeco having equivalent value.

issue or distribute Parent Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire Parent Common Shares) to the holders of all or substantially all of the then outstanding Parent Common Shares by way of stock dividend or other distribution, other than an issue of Parent |
- 7 -
Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire Parent Common Shares) to holders of Parent Common Shares who exercise an option to receive dividends in Parent Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire Parent Common Shares) in lieu of receiving cash dividends; or | ||
(ii) |
issue or distribute rights, options or warrants to the holders of all or substantially all of the then outstanding Parent Common Shares entitling them to subscribe for or to purchase Parent Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire Parent Common Shares); or | |

issue or distribute to the holders of all or substantially all of the then outstanding Parent Common Shares (A) shares or securities of the Parent of any class other than Parent Common Shares (other than shares convertible into or exchangeable for or carrying rights to acquire Parent Common Shares), (B) rights, options or warrants other than those referred to in paragraph 2.7(a)(ii) above, (C) evidences of indebtedness of the Parent or (D) assets of the Parent, |

The Parent will not: |
(i) |
subdivide, re-divide or change the then outstanding Parent Common Shares into a greater number of Parent Common Shares; or | |
(ii) |
reduce, combine, consolidate or change the then outstanding Parent Common Shares into a lesser number of Parent Common Shares; or | |
(iii) |
reclassify or otherwise change Parent Common Shares or effect an amalgamation, merger, reorganization or other transaction affecting Parent Common Shares, |
unless the same or economically equivalent change shall simultaneously be made to, or in the rights of the holders of, the Exchangeable Shares.
- 8 -
(c) |
The Parent will ensure that the record date for any event referred to in paragraphs 2.7(a) or (b) above, (or if no record date is applicable for such event the effective date for any such event), is not less than five Business Days after the date on which such event is declared or announced by the Parent (with contemporaneous notification thereof by the Parent to Exchangeco). | ||
(d) |
The Board of Directors of Exchangeco shall determine, in good faith and in its sole discretion, economic equivalence for the purposes of any event referred to in paragraphs 2.7(a) or 2.7(b) above, and each such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Parent. In making each such determination, the following factors shall, without excluding other factors determined by the Board of Directors of Exchangeco to be relevant, be considered by the Board of Directors of Exchangeco: | ||
(i) |
in the case of any stock dividend or other distribution payable in Parent Common Shares, the number of such shares issued in proportion to the number of Parent Common Shares previously outstanding; | ||
(ii) |
in the case of the issuance or distribution of any rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Parent Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire Parent Common Shares), the relationship between the exercise price of each such right, option or warrant and the current market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of Exchangeco in the manner above contemplated) of a Parent Common Share; | ||
(iii) |
in the case of the issuance or distribution of any other form of property (including without limitation any shares or securities of the Parent of any class other than Parent Common Shares, any rights, options or warrants other than those referred to in paragraph 2.7(d)(ii) above, any evidences of indebtedness of the Parent or any assets of the Parent), the relationship between the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of Exchangeco in the manner above contemplated) of such property to be issued or distributed with respect to each outstanding Parent Common Share and the current market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of Exchangeco in the manner above contemplated) of a Parent Common Share; |
- 9 -
(iv) |
in the case of any subdivision, redivision or change of the then outstanding Parent Common Shares into a greater number of Parent Common Shares or the reduction, combination, consolidation or change of the then outstanding Parent Common Shares into a lesser number of Parent Common Shares or any amalgamation, merger, reorganization or other transaction affecting Parent Common Shares, the effect thereof upon the then outstanding Parent Common Shares; and | |
(v) |
in all such cases, the general taxation consequences of the relevant event to holders of Exchangeable Shares to the extent that such consequences may differ from the taxation consequences to holders of Parent Common Shares as a result of differences between taxation laws of Canada and the United States (except for any differing consequences arising as a result of differing marginal taxation rates and without regard to the individual circumstances of holders of Exchangeable Shares). |
For purposes of the foregoing determinations, the current market value of any security listed and traded or quoted on a securities exchange shall be the weighted average of the daily trading prices of such security during a period of not less than 20 consecutive trading days ending not more than three trading days before the date of determination on the principal securities exchange on which such securities are listed and traded or quoted; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the Board of Directors of Exchangeco the public distribution or trading activity of such securities during such period does not create a market which reflects the fair market value of such securities, then the current market value thereof shall be determined by the Board of Directors of Exchangeco, in good faith and in its sole discretion, and provided further that any such determination by the Board of Directors of Exchangeco shall be conclusive and binding on the Parent; | ||
(e) |
Exchangeco agrees that, to the extent required, upon due notice from the Parent, Exchangeco will use its best efforts to take or cause to be taken such steps as may be necessary for the purposes of ensuring that appropriate dividends are paid or other distributions are made by Exchangeco, or subdivisions, redivisions or changes are made to the Exchangeable Shares, in order to implement the required economic equivalent with respect to the Parent Common Shares and Exchangeable Shares as provided for in this section 2.7. |
2.8 |
Tender Offers |
- 10 -
In the event that a tender offer, share exchange offer, issuer bid, takeover bid or similar transaction with respect to Parent Common Shares (an “Offer”) is proposed by the Parent or is proposed to the Parent or its shareholders and is recommended by the Board of Directors of the Parent, or is otherwise effected or to be effected with the consent or approval of the Board of Directors of the Parent, and the Exchangeable Shares are not redeemed by Exchangeco, the Parent will expeditiously take all such actions and do all such things as are necessary or desirable to enable and permit holders of Exchangeable Shares to participate in such Offer to the same extent and on an economically equivalent basis as the holders of Parent Common Shares, without discrimination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent will ensure that holders of Exchangeable Shares may participate in all such Offers without being required to retract Exchangeable Shares as against Exchangeco (or, if so required, to ensure that any such retraction shall be effective only upon, and shall be conditional upon, the closing of the Offer and only to the extent necessary to tender or deposit to the Offer). | |
2.9 |
Ownership of Outstanding Shares |
The Parent covenants and agrees in favour of Exchangeco that, as long as any outstanding Exchangeable Shares are owned by any person or entity other than the Parent or any of its Affiliates, the Parent will be and remain the direct or indirect beneficial owner of all issued and outstanding voting shares in the capital of Exchangeco. | |
2.10 |
Parent and Affiliates Not to Vote Exchangeable Shares |
