(4) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no press release or public statement that mentions PSP or Red Isle shall be made by any party to this Agreement without the prior consent of PSP, unless such mentioning is required by Applicable Law or the obligation of a party or its Affiliate pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any stock exchange or securities commission.

(5) Treatment of Confidential Information. Each Recipient shall use at least the same degree of care in maintaining the confidentiality of any Confidential Information in its possession or under its control as it uses in maintaining the confidentiality of its own confidential information of comparable nature and importance, but in no event with less care than is reasonable given the nature of the Confidential Information.

(6) Legal Compulsion. A Recipient (and its Affiliates and Associates) may disclose Confidential Information if so requested or required by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) and if at the time of such request or requirement the Recipient is reasonably satisfied (whether on the basis of express or implied undertakings or other reliable assurances, established administrative practice or requirements imposed by Applicable law) that the recipient of such Confidential Information will be required to maintain such Confidential Information in confidence.

(7) Remedies for Breach. Each party acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of its obligations under this Section 2.04 to any Owner would result in irreparable harm to such Owner which could not be calculated or adequately compensated by recovery of damages alone. Each party therefore agrees that any Owner whose Confidential Information a Recipient discloses or threatens to disclose in breach of this Agreement shall be entitled to interim or permanent injunctive relief, specific performance and such other equitable remedies against such Recipient (or its Affiliates or Associates) to restrain or remedy such breach.

3.03 Independent Directors.

(1) Qualifications. “Independent Director” means any Director who is not a Shareholder Nominee, who has been designated as a candidate for the office of Independent

- 25 -

Director in accordance with this Section 3.03(3), who is qualified to act as a director under Applicable Law, and who at the time of his or her nomination:

(a) is an individual in good standing in the business community with experience as a company director;

(b) is not, and has not been within the last three years prior to being nominated, employed (other than as a Director or a director or officer of Telesat or as a Third Party Investor) by an Interested Party;

(c) is not an Interested Party, provided that in applying the term “Interested Party” solely in and for the purposes of this Section, but not in or for the purposes of any other Section, or cross reference to this Section, in this Agreement, MHR Fund shall be deemed to be a Shareholder; and

(d) has no other relationship (other than as a Director or as a director of Interco or Telesat) or characteristics that could reasonably be expected to compromise his or her independence in fact from all Interested Parties.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no action by a Director designated as an Independent Director shall be invalid by reason only that such Director did not meet the foregoing qualifications at the time such action was taken.

(2) Organizational Meeting. As soon as practicable following the Closing, the Shareholders will convene a special Shareholders’ meeting to elect the Directors.

(3) Independent Directors: Nominations and Challenges. Not later than 60 days before each meeting of Shareholders at which Independent Directors are to be elected, either of PSP or Loral may request the formation of a nominating committee to propose nominees for the Independent Directors to be elected at such meeting. Such nominating committee, once proposed, shall meet within 10 days of the date of proposal by either PSP or Loral. The members of such nominating committee shall be one director who is a Loral Nominee (designated by Loral), one director who is a PSP Nominee (designated by PSP) and in the case of the first nominating committee, TPI #1, after TPI #1 has been selected by PSP, and thereafter one Independent Director selected by the Independent Directors then in office. The nominating committee as so selected (the “Nominating Committee”) shall meet and shall select, by majority vote, within 10 days of its first meeting, a slate of nominees of Independent Directors to be elected at the next meeting of Shareholders at which Directors are to be elected. Once a Nominating Committee is formed, each member of the Nominating Committee shall take part in, and shall vote on, the selection of each nominee for the position of Independent Director. The Nominating Committee shall report to each of PSP and Loral as to its proposed nominees, providing such information in reasonable detail as to the identity and background of each individual as will enable PSP and Loral to determine whether such individual meets the qualifications referred to in Section 3.03(1). During the 10 days following the date on which such notification is received, either PSP or Loral shall have the right and opportunity to interview each proposed nominee, to examine his or her credentials and to challenge, acting reasonably and in good faith, the proposed nomination on the basis that the proposed nominee does not meet all

- 26 -

the qualifications referred to in Section 3.03(1). Upon such challenge being made in a timely manner, reasonably and in good faith, the proposed nomination shall be withdrawn and the Nominating Committee shall propose a new nominee. Any such challenge shall be presumed to be made reasonably and in good faith, but such presumption may be rebutted by satisfactory evidence to the contrary accepted as such, if required, by an Arbitrator in accordance with Article 9 or by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(4) Voting for Independent Directors. Subject to the right to challenge a nominee as set forth in Section 3.03(3), all Shareholders owning Shares which may be voted for the election of Directors shall vote all such Shares to elect as Independent Directors the nominees selected by the Nominating Committee.

(5) Removal of Independent Directors. Except as provided in Section 3.03(3), no Independent Director may be removed from office except by Extraordinary Resolution.

If a quorum of directors is not present at a meeting of directors duly called because of the absence at such meeting of any Loral Nominee or any PSP Nominee, a quorum of directors at the next duly called meeting of directors shall not require the presence of a nominee of the Shareholder whose nominees prevented the formation of a quorum of directors at the last duly called meeting.

(3) Vote. Any matter put before the Directors shall be decided by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors present at the meeting who are not Interested Directors in respect of that matter, or a resolution signed by all of the directors.

(1) The covenants and undertakings contained in Sections 4.04 or 4.05 relate to matters which are of a special, unique and extraordinary character and a violation of any of the terms of Sections 4.04 or 4.05 will cause irreparable injury to the Company, Interco or Telesat, the amount of which will be impossible to estimate or determine and which cannot be adequately compensated. Accordingly, the remedy at law for any breach of Sections 4.04 or 4.05 will be inadequate. Therefore, the Company, Interco or Telesat will be entitled to a temporary and permanent injunction, restraining order or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in the event of any breach of Sections 4.04 or 4.05 without the necessity of proving actual damage or posting any bond whatsoever.

Except as permitted pursuant to this Section 6.01, every offer of Shares by the Company shall be made by notice (“Notice of Pre-Emptive Right”) to each holder of Equity Shares (each Shareholder for the purposes of this Section 6.01(2) being referred to as a “Pre-Emptive Rights Shareholder”) from the secretary of the Company which shall set forth:

(a) a description of the shares to be offered or issued (the “Offered Treasury Shares”);

(b) the subscription price for each Offered Treasury Share; and

(c) the subscription date (the “Subscription Date”), which shall be a date not earlier than 25 Business Days after the date of the notice.

(3) Limits on Subscriptions.

A Pre-Emptive Rights Shareholder wishing to subscribe for Offered Treasury Shares in excess of such Pro Rata Proportion shall, in its Notice of Subscription, specify the number or dollar amount, as the case may be, of Offered Treasury Shares in excess of its Pro Rata Proportion that it wishes to purchase, subject to availability and to all necessary Regulatory Approvals being obtained.

(4) Undersubscribed Issues. If a Pre-Emptive Rights Shareholder does not subscribe for its Pro Rata Proportion of Offered Treasury Shares within the Subscription Period, the unsubscribed Offered Treasury Shares shall be used to satisfy any subscriptions of other Shareholders for Offered Treasury Shares in excess of their Pro Rata Proportions (as set out in such Shareholder’s Notice of Subscription) but no Shareholder shall be bound to take up any Offered Treasury Shares in excess of the amount it requested to purchase in its Notice of Subscription.

(5) Fractional Shares.

Notwithstanding the description of the Offered Treasury Shares set out in the Notice of Pre-Emptive Rights, any Pre-Emptive Rights Shareholder which delivers a Notice of Subscription in respect of Offered Treasury Shares which are Equity Shares, but which would be unable to own the class of Offered Treasury Shares described in the Notice of Pre-Emptive Rights, shall be entitled to specify in its Notice of Subscription that it wishes to purchase an equivalent number of Equity Shares of a class which it is permitted to own under Applicable Laws, and in such event, the Directors shall authorize for issuance, and the Company shall issue, to such Pre-Emptive Rights Shareholder the number of Equity Shares of the class so specified, in lieu of the authorization and issuance of that number of Offered Treasury Shares to that Pre-Emptive Rights Shareholder.

6.02 Initial Public Offering

If the Company shall not have completed an initial public offering of its Equity Shares by the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date, either PSP or Loral shall have the right at any time thereafter, by notice to the Company and to all other holders of Equity Shares, to cause the Company to conduct an initial public offering of its Equity Shares. Within 90 days after a Loral Change of Control, PSP shall have the right by notice to the Company and all other holders of Equity Shares to cause the Company to conduct an initial public offering (a “Change of Control Offering”). At any time after the Company has completed an initial public offering, each of PSP and Loral (and MHR Fund, upon becoming a direct holder of Shares, from which time it shall be a Shareholder) shall have the right, on not more than two occasions, by notice to the Company and the holders of Equity Shares, to require the Company to qualify a prospectus or registration statement for the distribution of Equity Shares held by such Shareholder or MHR Fund (a “Registration Event”). In addition, at any time after the Company has completed a Change of Control Offering, PSP shall have the right (such right, the “Change of Control Demand Right”), by notice to the Company and the holders of Equity Shares, to require the Company to qualify a prospectus or registration statement for the distribution of Equity Shares held by PSP (a “Change of Control Registration Event”) by the later of (x) six months following the Change of Control Offering or (y) one month after the expiration of the lock-up required by the underwriters in connection with the Change of Control Offering, and such right shall not count towards the rights set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. Upon the giving of a notice of initial public offering, the Shareholders will co-operate in good faith to facilitate an initial public offering of Equity Shares of the Company (including either, or a combination of, a primary and secondary distribution) subject to the following conditions:

(a) prior to and as a condition precedent to the completion of any public offering the Shareholders will cooperate to:

(i) amend this Agreement so that it will no longer be a unanimous shareholder agreement under the CBCA and implement contractual arrangements satisfactory to the parties affected that will afford such parties protections and rights reasonably comparable to those provided under this Agreement to the extent that such protections and rights may under Applicable Law be granted by an agreement that is not a unanimous shareholder agreement under the CBCA, provided that, in connection with an initial public offering, the Shareholders will consider in good faith the termination of all or a portion of the rights set forth in this Agreement (excluding those set forth in Sections 6.02 through 6.05); provided, further that, in the event that the managing underwriter with respect to an initial public offerings notifies each of Loral and PSP that a continuation of any of the rights under this Agreement (excluding those set forth in Sections 6.02 through 6.05) may have a material adverse effect on the valuation of the Equity Shares being offered in such initial public offering, then such contractual rights shall be modified or deleted as necessary to prevent such material adverse effect; and

- 40 -

(ii) amend the Articles and By-laws to accommodate the public offering and the public ownership of Equity Shares;

(b) no public offering shall be made nor any steps taken preparatory thereto (including solicitations of interest or preparation and filing of a preliminary prospectus in any jurisdiction) except in conformity with Applicable Law;

(c) no public offerings of Shares by the Company from treasury shall be made unless issuance of such Shares is approved pursuant to Section 5.01 (except to the extent that PSP or Loral is causing the Company to conduct an initial public offering in accordance with this Section 6.02);

(d) the right of first offer granted under Section 7.07 shall not apply to any public offerings of Equity Shares by way of secondary distribution; and

(e) with respect to any public offering which is the result of a Registration Event or Change of Control Registration Event, the Equity Shareholder requiring the qualification of a prospectus or registration statement shall be entitled to recommend for consideration of the Board of Directors (i) the lead underwriter for such offering, (ii) whether such offering shall be made in Canada or the United States of America and (iii) the place of listing of the Equity Shares on a national stock exchange or inter-dealer quotation system consistent with the determination made in clause (ii).

6.03 Initial Public Offering and Registration Procedures

In an initial public offering of the Company, and any subsequent offering of Common Shares of the Company, each of PSP and Loral (and MHR Fund, if then a holder of Equity Shares) shall be entitled to request the inclusion in such offering document all or part of such Shareholder’s

- 41 -

Equity Shares. If the underwriter managing the offering advises the Shareholders who have requested inclusion of their Shares in the offering, including any Shareholder exercising demand registration rights, pursuant to a Change of Control Demand Right or upon the happening of a Registration Event (collectively, the “Included Holders”) that marketing considerations require a limitation on the number of Shares offered, then the number of Shares to be included in such underwritten public offering shall be reduced to a number, reasonably deemed satisfactory by such managing underwriter, provided that the securities to be included in the offering shall be determined in the following sequence:

(a) in the event that the offering is initiated by the Company, (i) first, securities sought to be offered by the Company, and (ii) second, securities sought to be offered by all Included Holders, pro rata among the Included Holders (based on the aggregate number of securities which each such Included Holder has requested to be included);

(b) subject to clauses (c) and (d), below, in the event that the offering is initiated by a Shareholder exercising a demand registration right or by PSP or Loral exercising its rights to cause an initial public offering after the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date, (i) first, securities sought to be offered by such Shareholder and the other Included Holders, pro rata among all such Included Holders (based on the aggregate number of securities which each such Included Holder has requested to be included), and (ii) second, securities sought to be offered by the Company;

(c) in the event that the offering is the initial public offering initiated by PSP within 90 days after a Loral Change of Control: (i) first, securities sought to be offered by PSP, (ii) second, securities sought to be offered by the Company, and (iii) securities sought to be offered by any other Included Holders other than PSP, pro rata among the Included Holders other than PSP (based on the aggregate number of securities which each such Included Holder has requested to be included); and

(d) in the event that the offering is initiated by PSP in connection with an exercise of the Change of Control Demand Right, then: (i) first, securities sought to be offered by PSP, (ii) second, securities sought to be offered by any other Included Holders other than PSP, pro rata among the Included Holders other than PSP (based on the aggregate number of securities which each such Included Holder has requested to be included), and (iii) third, securities sought to be offered by the Company.

If the Company is qualifying a prospectus or registration statement as a result of a Registration Event and the Shareholder requiring such qualification has been unable to dispose of more than 50% of the Shares which such Shareholder has requested to be included in the offering as a result of the application of this Section 6.03, such offering shall not qualify as one of the two occasions in which such Shareholder shall be able to require a Registration Event.

- 42 -

6.04 Assistance with Offerings

Whenever any Shareholder has exercised its right to require the Company to qualify a prospectus or registration statement for the offering of its Equity Shares, the Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to cause the consummation of the offering as soon as reasonably practicable, and will use reasonable commercial efforts and take all steps necessary for the preparation, filing and obtaining of receipts of a preliminary and final prospectus, and any required amendments thereto, from the securities commissions and other securities regulatory authorities of each Province of Canada (including a French language preliminary and final prospectus for use in the Province of Quebec), or all steps necessary for the preparation, filing, amending (including post-effective amendments) and supplementing of a registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States of America, and compliance with all relevant state laws, and shall make available appropriate members of its management to participate in road shows, marketing efforts and investor meetings in connection with the offering of Equity Shares. Each Shareholder will cooperate in good faith to the extent necessary to facilitate each such offering.

6.05 Expenses

All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04, including all prospectus preparation expenses, printing expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for the Equity Shares and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is requested by a holder of Equity Shares), the Company’s internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), registration and prospectus filing fees, the fees and expenses incurred in connection with any listing of the equity shares, fees and expenses of counsel for the Company and a single counsel to the Shareholders participating in the offering as selected by the Shareholder requiring the qualification of a prospectus or registration statement pursuant to Section 6.02 and the Company’s independent certified public accountants, the fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such prospectus or registration statement, and the fees and expenses of other persons retained by the Company (all such expenses being herein called “Registration Expenses”) will be borne by the Company whether or not any final prospectus receipts are issued or the registration statement becomes effective; provided, however, that in no event shall Registration Expenses include any underwriting discounts, commissions or fees attributable to the sale of the Equity Shares.

6.06 Auditor

Until changed by Extraordinary Resolution, the Auditor of the Company and of Interco and Telesat shall be Deloitte & Touche.

6.07 Year End

Until changed by Extraordinary Resolution, the fiscal year of the Company, Interco and Telesat shall end on December 31 in each year.

- 43 -

6.08 Access to Information

Each of the Company, Interco and Telesat shall provide to each of Loral and PSP (i) all annual and quarterly financial statements at such times as may be reasonably requested by either Loral or PSP in order to support filing obligations of Loral or PSP, and in no event later than the date that such financial statements are provided to the Company’s or Telesat’s bank lenders, and (ii) access to all other information concerning the business and affairs, financial performance and compliance with Applicable Laws of each of the Company, Interco and Telesat as shall be reasonably requested by either Loral or PSP, such access to be given under reasonable circumstances and in normal business hours. To the extent that the Company’s annual financial statements are not audited within 60 days of the Company’s fiscal year-end, the Company shall provide to Loral and PSP drafts of the Company’s unaudited financial statements within such 60 day period, if and when otherwise available.

ARTICLE 7 – RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF RESTRICTED SHARES

7.01 Meaning of “Transfer”

In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, any reference to a “transfer” of securities or any interest therein of a Person shall be interpreted to include:

(a) any transfer or other disposition of such securities or any interest therein, including by operation of law, by court order, by judicial process, or by foreclosure, levy or attachment;

(b) any sale, assignment, gift, donation, redemption, conversion or other disposition of such securities or any interest therein pursuant to an agreement, arrangement, instrument or understanding by which legal title to or beneficial ownership of such securities or any interest therein passes from one Person to another Person or to the same Person in a different legal capacity, whether or not for value, and

(c) the granting of any Lien on or extending or attaching to such securities or any interest therein.

7.02 Board Approval of Transfers

In addition to the restrictions on transfer contained elsewhere in this Article 7 , no Share may be transferred (other than pursuant to Section 6.02 and Section 6.03)) (i) prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date, without the prior consent of at least 70% of the Directors (other than pursuant to the PSP Sell-Down or the sale by any Equity Shareholder of up to 10% of such Shareholder’s Equity Shares) and (ii) in the case of the PSP Sell-Down or the sale by any Equity Shareholder of up to 10% of such Shareholder’s Equity Shares, or any sale after the first two years from the Effective Date, without the prior consent of a majority of the Board. No Director shall vote to consent to the transfer of any Share unless all applicable restrictions on such transfer contained in this Article 7 have been complied with and such transfer is not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement and the transferee (other than a transferee pursuant to Section 6.02 or 6.03) has executed and delivered to the Company an acknowledgement of the existence and terms of this Agreement substantially in the form of Schedule H, to be effective

- 44 -

immediately following such transfer; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to receipt from each transferee of such an acknowledgement, the Board shall approve any transfer of Shares referred to in clauses (i), (ii)(b) or (iii) of the definition of PSP Sell-Down, and clause (ii)(a) of the definition of PSP Sell-Down so long as the Board resolves in writing prior to such transfer that such transfer of such additional amount of Fixed Rate Preferred Shares will not cause material adverse tax consequences to the Company. Each Director shall vote to consent to any transfer if all such restrictions on such transfer have been complied with and such transfer is not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement. Each Shareholder shall take all such action as may be required to ensure compliance with this Section 7.02 by its Shareholder Nominees. Any dispute as to whether any transfer is permitted under this Agreement shall be subject to arbitration under Article 9 .

7.03 Restrictions on Transfers of Shares

No Shareholder may transfer any Shares or any interest therein owned by it to any Person except (i) to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 7.04, (ii) after compliance with a Right of First Offer pursuant to Section 7.07, including in respect of a transfer as described in clause (ii)(b) of the definition of “PSP Sell-Down”, (iii) (x) pursuant to a public offering as contemplated by Section 6.02 and Section 6.03, or (y) following such offering and after compliance with Section 7.07, pursuant to rules permitting the sale of securities in the normal course through a stock exchange in compliance with the rules of such stock exchange, (iv) pursuant to a sale of Shares upon insolvency pursuant to Section 7.06, (v) upon exercise of tag along or drag along rights pursuant to Section 7.08, (vi) pursuant to the PSP call rights as provided in Section 7.09, Loral call rights as provided in Section 7.10 or in respect of a transfer of Director Voting Shares, in compliance with (and only in compliance with) the provisions of Section 7.11, (vii) as part of a transfer of Fixed Rate Preferred Shares and/or Equity Shares pursuant to the PSP Sell-Down, or (viii) pursuant to a redemption of Redeemable Common Shares or Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares as contemplated by Section 3.06, or of Fixed Rate Preferred Shares in accordance with the rights, restrictions, conditions and limitation attaching to the Fixed Rate Preferred Shares. Any attempted transfer of Shares made in breach of this Agreement shall be null and void. Neither the Board nor the Shareholders shall approve or ratify any transfer of Shares made in contravention of the prohibition contained in this Section 7.03, and the Company shall cause any such transfer not to be recorded on the registers of the Company maintained for the Shares.

7.04 Transfers to Permitted Transferees

(1) Permitted Transferee. A “Permitted Transferee” is, (a) in the case of Shares owned by a specific Shareholder, any Person (1) which is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of that Shareholder or (2) of which that Person is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary or (3) in the case of PSP, any fund which is wholly-managed by PSP, (b) any Shareholder who is an original party to this Agreement, and (c) MHR Fund.

(2) Transfer. Subject to this Section 7.04, each Shareholder shall be entitled, upon prior written notice to the Company and the other Shareholders, to transfer all or any portion of its Shares to any Permitted Transferee of that Shareholder. No such transfer shall be or become effective, however, until such Permitted Transferee executes and delivers to the Company an

- 45 -

acknowledgement of the terms of this Agreement substantially in the form of Schedule H. Following a transfer, the transferring Shareholder and the Permitted Transferee shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of the transferring Shareholder hereunder, provided that if the transferee is MHR Fund, then MHR Fund shall not be jointly and severally liable with any transferring Shareholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, if MHR Fund acquires Equity Shares as a Permitted Transferee, MHR Fund will become subject to Sections 7.08 and 7.09 in its capacity as a Permitted Transferee thereunder. On subsequent transfers under this Section, the determination of whether the transferee is a Permitted Transferee shall be determined by reference to the Shareholder who was an original party to this Agreement, not by reference to the transferring Permitted Transferee in such subsequent transfer.

7.05 Indirect Transfers

(1) Sole Ownership. Subject to Section 7.05(3), each Shareholder covenants and agrees with the other parties that (i) it shall remain the sole owner of all of the voting securities of any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of it that hereafter acquires any Shares so long as such Wholly-Owned Subsidiary holds such Shares, (ii) it will remain the sole manager of any fund managed by it into which any Shares are transferred and (iii) it shall not agree to be or be the subject of or a party to any transaction as a consequence of which Equity Shares or voting interests therein would be or are acquired by a Strategic Competitor of Telesat.

(2) Prohibited Transfers. Without limiting the generality of Section 7.05(1), and subject to Section 7.05(3), the Company shall not recognize or register, and the Shareholders and the Board shall not approve, any direct transfer of Shares made in breach of Section 7.05(1), and neither the Board nor the Company shall recognize any direction, instruction or notice from any Person or group of Persons who acquires, directly or indirectly, control of a Shareholder as a result of a transfer or issuance of securities of such Shareholder or securities or other voting interests of any other Person made in breach of Section 7.05(1)(iii).

(3) For greater certainty, nothing in this Section 7.05 shall prevent, restrict, impede or in any manner affect any transaction or series of related transactions through which Loral Space or any of its Affiliates (other than Loral, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) may be merged, combined or amalgamated with or into any other Person, or any securities or assets of Loral Space or any of its Affiliates (other than Loral, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) may be sold, transferred to or exchanged with the securities or other property of any other Person.

7.06 Sale of Shares on Insolvency

An Equity Shareholder (an “Insolvent Shareholder”) shall be deemed to have irrevocably offered to sell all of the Equity Shares owned by it to the other Equity Shareholders as of the day (the “Date of Withdrawal”) immediately before the day on which Insolvency Proceedings by or against that Insolvent Shareholder are commenced, and each other Shareholder may, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have, purchase such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Proportion of the Equity Shares deemed to be offered by the Insolvent Shareholder (calculated without reference to the Shares held by the Insolvent Shareholder) at their Fair Market Value per Equity Share as determined under Section 8.03 by giving notice of their elections within 30 Business Days after the Date of Withdrawal, according to their Pro Rata Proportions or any other proportions as they may agree.

- 46 -

7.07 Right of First Offer

(1) ROFO Notice. If at any time any Equity Shareholder wishes to sell some or all of the Equity Shares then owned by it (other than a transfer to a Permitted Transferee or the sale of up to the .5601% of Equity Shares that constitute part of the PSP Sell-Down, to which this Section 7.07 shall not apply), or PSP wishes to sell some or all of the Fixed Rate Preferred Shares then owned by it in conjunction with or at any time following a sale of all Equity Shares then owned by PSP and its Affiliates, such Shareholder (the “Offeror”) shall first give notice in writing (such notice, a “ROFO Notice”) to all other Equity Shareholders (the “Offeree Shareholders”) of its desire to sell, the purchase price per Share (and in the case of a ROFO Notice by PSP in respect of both Equity Shares and Fixed Rate Preferred Shares, a separate price per Share in respect of Shares of each such class) at which the Offeror wishes to sell (the “Stipulated Price”), any other terms and conditions of the sale (the “Stipulated Terms”) and the expiry date of the ROFO Notice (the “Expiry Date”). The ROFO Notice shall constitute an irrevocable offer by the Offeror to sell to each Offeree Shareholder or such other Permitted Purchaser as an Offeree Shareholder may designate under Section 8.08 (a “Designee”) the Pro Rata Proportion of the Shares specified in the ROFO Notice (the “Offered Shares”) at the Stipulated Price and on the Stipulated Terms. Subject to Section 7.07(3)(b), the ROFO Notice shall specify a Sale Closing Date that is no earlier than 30 days after the Expiry Date.

(2) Expiry Date and Notice of Contemplation. The period from the date on which the ROFO Notice is issued and the Expiry Date may be no less than 30 days (the “Exercise Period”). If the Exercise Period for any ROFO Notice is less than 60 days, such ROFO Notice shall not be valid unless (x) before delivering such ROFO Notice, the Offeror shall have first delivered to each Offeree Shareholder a notice (a “Notice of Contemplation”) stating that the Shareholder is contemplating selling the Offered Shares and (y) the period from the date of the delivery of the Notice of Contemplation to the Expiry Date specified in the subsequent ROFO Notice is not less than 60 days and not more than 6 months. The Notice of Contemplation shall not constitute an offer to sell the Offered Shares and need not contain the terms or conditions upon which the Offeror is prepared to sell.

(3) Acceptance by Offeree Shareholders.

(a) Each Offeree Shareholder may within the applicable Exercise Period give the Offeror written notice (an “Acceptance”) that such Offeree Shareholder accepts the offer contained in the ROFO Notice at the Stipulated Price and on the Stipulated Terms. Each Offeree Shareholder which delivers an Acceptance for its full Pro Rata Proportion of the Offered Shares shall be entitled to stipulate in its Acceptance that it wishes to purchase additional Offered Shares and the maximum number of additional Offered Shares that it is prepared to purchase, and if other Offeree Shareholders do not deliver Acceptances for their full Pro Rata Proportion of Offered Shares, the Offered Shares not accepted for purchase shall be allocated, in their Pro Rata Proportions, to the Offeree Shareholders which have stipulated a wish to purchase additional Offered Shares, provided that in no

- 47 -

event shall an Offeree Shareholder be required to purchase a greater number of Offered Shares than the maximum number specified in its Acceptance.

(b) If an Offeree Shareholder is unable to accept the offer contained in a ROFO Notice by reason of restrictions of Applicable Law but desires to have the opportunity to procure a Designee that would not be so restricted (a “Suitable Designee”), the Offeree Shareholder may accept such offer on behalf of an unnamed Suitable Designee, it being agreed and understood, however, that such acceptance shall create a binding obligation on the part of the Offeree Shareholder to pay or cause to be paid the Stipulated Price to the Offeror on the Sale Closing Date regardless of whether the Offeree Shareholder has procured a Suitable Designee. If the Offeree Shareholder accepts an offer contained in a ROFO Notice under this Section 7.07(3)(b), the Offeror and the Offeree Shareholder shall be deemed to have agreed that the Sale Closing Date is the first Business Day that is more than 90 days after the Expiry Date. If on such Sale Closing Date the Offeree Shareholder is not permitted by Applicable Law to take delivery of the Offered Shares and no Suitable Designee has been procured, the Offeree Shareholder shall nevertheless pay the Stipulated Price to the Offeror. In such event, the Offeror shall reserve and refrain from selling or otherwise dealing with the Offered Shares and the rights of the Offeree Shareholder with respect to the Offered Shares shall be limited to being permitted to acquire the Offered Shares at a later date pursuant to Applicable Laws, or to procure an acceptable Designee, and the Offeree Shareholder shall have no other rights with respect to the Offered Shares. In the event that by reason of a Change in Law the Offeree Shareholder is subsequently permitted to acquire the Offered Shares, or the Offeree Shareholder has procured a Suitable Designee, the Offeree Shareholder shall give notice of such Change in Law or the procurement of a Suitable Designee to the Offeror and to the Company, and, if applicable, upon being satisfied that such transfer does not contravene Applicable Law, the Company shall register the transfer of the Offered Shares to the Offeree Shareholder, or to the Suitable Designee, as the case may be, on the date specified by the Offeree Shareholder which shall be not less than five Business Days after the date of its notice.

(c) If the Offeree Shareholders do not deliver Acceptances to the Offeror during the Exercise Period for all of the Offered Shares, the Offeror may, subject to Section 7.07(3)(b), at any time during the three month period following the expiry of the Exercise Period sell any Offered Shares for which Acceptances were not delivered to any Permitted Purchaser at a purchase price which is not less than the Stipulated Price and on terms and conditions which are not more favourable to the Permitted Purchaser than the Stipulated Terms set forth in the ROFO Notice.

(4) Continuing Right. If the sale to a Permitted Purchaser is not completed within the three month period referred to in Section 7.07(3)(b), the Offeror may not sell the Offered Shares without first offering them again in accordance with this Section 7.07.

(5) Termination of Loral Right of First Offer. If a Loral Default shall occur, Loral shall thereafter have no rights as an Offeree Shareholder pursuant to this Section 7.07.

- 48 -

(6) Following a Public Offering. If at any time after a public offering any Equity Shareholder wishes to sell some or all of the Equity Shares then owned by it pursuant to clause (iii) (y) of Section 7.03 (other than the sale of up to the .5601% of Equity Shares that constitute part of the PSP Sell-Down, to which Section 7.07 shall not apply), the provisions of this Section 7.07 shall apply but with the following modifications:

(a) the Exercise Period may be 15 days or longer, but not less than 15 days;

(b) the requirement set forth in the second sentence of Section 7.07(2) that the Offeror deliver to the Offeree Shareholder a Notice of Contemplation shall not apply;

(c) Section 7.07(3)(b) shall apply provided however that the second sentence of such section shall be replaced as follows:

“If the Offeree Shareholder accepts an offer contained in a ROFO Notice under this Section 7.07(3)(b), the Offeror and the Offeree Shareholder shall be deemed to have agreed that the Sale Closing Date is the first Business Day that is more than 30 days after the Expiry Date”; and

(d) Section 7.07(3)(c) shall be replaced as follows:

“If the Offeree Shareholders do not deliver Acceptances to the Offeror during the Exercise Period for all of the Offered Shares, the Offeror may, subject to Section 7.07(3)(b), at any time during the 30 day period following the expiry of the Exercise Period sell any Offered Shares for which Acceptances were not delivered to any Person (including any Permitted Purchaser) at a purchase price per Equity Share which is not less than 98% of the price stipulated in the ROFO Notice, and in the event of a private sale, on terms and conditions which are not more favourable to the purchaser than the Stipulated Terms set forth in the ROFO Notice.”

7.08 Tag-Along/Drag-Along Rights

In addition to the restrictions imposed by Section 7.03, the following provisions shall apply whenever Loral or a Permitted Transferee of Loral (a “Selling Loral Shareholder”) wishes to sell Equity Shares then owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees (the “Offered Loral Equity Shares”) to any Permitted Purchaser other than a Permitted Transferee or a Designee (a “Proposed Loral Purchaser”) and wishes to make to, or has received from, the Proposed Loral Purchaser an offer in respect of the Offered Loral Equity Shares or to enter into a written agreement of purchase and sale relating to the Offered Loral Equity Shares (any such offer or proposed agreement, a “Loral Offer”). As used in this Section 7.08, “Proportionate Fraction” in respect of a particular Loral Offer means a fraction the numerator of which is the number of the Offered Loral Equity Shares and the denominator of which is the total number of Equity Shares held by Loral or its Permitted Transferee at the time of determination.

- 49 -

(1) Tag-along Right in Favour of Non-Loral Shareholders. No Selling Loral Shareholder shall sell, offer to sell or agree to sell any of the Equity Shares owned by such Selling Loral Shareholder to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee unless the applicable Loral Offer is in writing and provides as a condition precedent to its completion that the Proposed Loral Purchaser will grant each other Equity Shareholder the right to require the Proposed Loral Purchaser to purchase, at the discretion of each such other Equity Shareholder, for cash or in securities that are readily tradeable on a securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system in Canada or the United States of America, some or all of the Proportionate Fraction of such other Shareholder’s Equity Shares at the same price contained in the Loral Offer and on the same terms and conditions as those contained in the Loral Offer. The Selling Loral Shareholder shall give notice of any such proposed sale to each other holder of Equity Shares no less than 30 days before the proposed Sale Closing Date (a “Tag-along Notice”). The Tag-along Notice will constitute an irrevocable offer on behalf of the Proposed Loral Purchaser to purchase from such other holder of Equity Shares the Proportionate Fraction of the Equity Shares then held by the other holders of Equity Shares (or such lesser number as the other holders of Equity Shares may elect) at the same price contained in the Loral Offer and on the same terms and conditions as those contained in the Loral Offer, and each other holder of Equity Shares will have no less than 15 days to accept such offer, specifying in such acceptance the number and class of Equity Shares that the other holder of Equity Shares wishes to sell to the Proposed Loral Purchaser. The completion of the sale of any such Equity Shares by each other holder of Equity Shares will be subject to the completion of the sale of the Offered Loral Equity Shares by the Selling Loral Shareholder and vice versa. The provisions of this Section 7.08(1) shall not apply to the sale by Selling Loral Shareholders of up to 5% (in the aggregate) of the Equity Shares owned by Loral on the Effective Date, provided that if a Selling Loral Shareholder offers Equity Shares in any transaction in which more Equity Shares than those exempted from the application of this Section 7.08(1) are being offered for sale (including a proposed sale of less than 5% of the Equity Shares owned by Loral on the Effective Date but when those shares are combined with prior sales by all Loral Selling Shareholders exempted from the application of this Section 7.08(1), would allow Loral Selling Shareholders to have sold more than 5% (in the aggregate) of the Equity Shares owned by Loral on the Effective Date without application of this Section 7.08(1)), this Section 7.08(1) shall apply to such transaction, and the rights of Selling Loral Shareholders to sell up to 5% (in the aggregate) of the Equity Shares owned by Loral on the Effective Date without compliance with this Section 7.08(1) shall continue after such transaction to the same extent as they existed prior to such transaction.

(2) Drag-along Right in Favour of Loral. Subject to Section 5.02(3), following consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Skynet Asset Transfer Agreement and the Skynet Sale Agreement, or by the Loral Alternative Subscription Agreement, if (x) the Loral Offer is bona fide and for all of the Equity Shares and the proposed consideration for the Equity Shares is for cash or for equity securities that are readily tradeable on a securities exchange or inter-dealer quotations system in Canada or the United States of America and (y) the Proposed Purchaser deals at Arm’s Length with the Selling Loral Shareholder, such Loral Offer may require as a condition precedent to its completion that each other holder of Equity Shares (each, a “Drag-along Shareholder”) agrees to sell to the Proposed Purchaser all of such Drag-along Shareholder’s Equity Shares at the same price contained in the Loral Offer and on the same terms and conditions as those contained in the Loral Offer. The Selling Loral Shareholder shall give notice of any such proposed sale to each Drag-along Shareholder no less than 60 days

- 50 -

before the proposed Sale Closing Date (a “Drag-along Notice”). Receipt of a Drag-along Notice by a Drag-along Shareholder will constitute an irrevocable offer to sell to the Proposed Purchaser (a “Deemed Offer”) of such Drag-along Shareholder’s Equity Shares then held by the Drag-along Shareholder at the same price contained in the Loral Offer and on the same terms and conditions as those contained in the Loral Offer; and each Drag-along Shareholder hereby appoints each Selling Loral Shareholder as its true and lawful attorney for the purpose of transmitting the Deemed Offer to the Proposed Purchaser. The completion of the sale of such Equity Shares by a Drag-along Shareholder will be subject to the completion of the sale of the Offered Loral Equity Shares by the Selling Shareholder and vice versa. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Loral Default shall occur and Section 5.02(3) shall not apply, the rights of any Selling Loral Shareholder contained in this Section 7.08(2) shall be suspended for a period of six months from the occurrence of such Loral Default and such rights shall be reinstated in full following the expiration of such six-month period if, during such six month period following the occurrence of such Loral Default, PSP has not delivered a PSP Call Notice pursuant to and in accordance with Section 7.09.

(3) Company Sale Drag-along Right.

(a) The drag-along rights as provided in this Section 7.08(3) shall apply only if (i) a Loral Default shall have occurred, or (ii) (x) a Loral Change of Control shall have occurred, (y) as a result thereof, PSP shall have given, within 90 days of such Loral Change of Control, notice pursuant to Section 6.02 that it wishes to cause the Company to conduct an initial public offering, and (z) such initial public offering shall not have been consummated within twelve months of the Loral Change of Control as a result of the failure by the Company, Interco or Loral to use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such initial public offering (as determined by arbitration pursuant to Article 9 unless otherwise agreed by PSP and Loral).

(b) Upon the happening of either event specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 7.08(3), PSP shall have the right to deliver to the Company a notice (a “Company Sale Notice”) requiring the commencement of a procedure for the sale of the Company. Within 30 days of the receipt by the Company of a Company Sale Notice, the Board of Directors shall retain the services of a financial advisor selected by the Board after consultation with PSP to market the Company to third party purchasers, and each of Loral, PSP and the Company shall assist in such process to maximize the value that can be obtained in the sale of all of the Equity Shares of the Company.

(c) If a bona fide offer is received for all of the Equity Shares for cash or for securities that are readily tradeable on a securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system in Canada or the United States of America and the offeror (the “Proposed Purchaser”) deals at Arm’s Length with each of Loral and PSP, then if PSP (the “Accepting Shareholder”) wishes to accept such offer, it may require the other holders of Equity Shares to agree to sell to the Proposed Purchaser all of such other Shareholder’s Equity Shares at the same price contained in the Proposed Purchaser’s offer and on the same terms and conditions. The Accepting

- 51 -

Shareholder shall give notice of any such proposed sale to each other Shareholder no less than 60 days before the sale closing date. Receipt of such a notice by such other Shareholder will constitute an irrevocable offer to sell by such other Shareholder to the Proposed Purchaser all Equity Shares then held by each such other Shareholder at the same price contained in the Proposed Purchaser’s offer and on the same terms and conditions, and each such other Shareholder hereby appoints the Accepting Shareholder as its true and lawful attorney for the purpose of transmitting such other Shareholder’s offer to the Proposed Purchaser. Completion of the sale of all such Equity Shares by such other Shareholders will be subject to the completion of the sale of the Accepting Shareholder’s Equity Shares and vice versa.

(4) Provisions Applicable to Tag-Along and Drag-Along Rights

(a) After compliance with the rights of first offer provided in Section 7.07, the rights of Equity Shareholders described in Section 7.07 shall not apply to any offer or sale made pursuant to Sections 7.08(2) or (3), but shall apply to any other offer or sale pursuant to Section 7.08(1).

(b) In lieu of an offer to purchase shares to be made by a Proposed Loral Purchaser or Proposed Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.08(2) or (3), a proposal of amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or a proposal of purchase of all of the assets of the Company, may instead be made, provided that such offer is a bona fide offer that provides identical consideration or treatment to the holders of all Equity Shares, is proposed by a Person who deals at Arm’s Length with each of PSP and Loral, and will result in the direct or indirect receipt by each holder of Equity Shares of cash or securities that are readily tradeable on a securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system in Canada or the United States of America, and the provisions of Section 7.08(2) and (3) shall apply mutatis mutandis to any such proposal.

(c) In the case of any drag-along or tag-along right exercised pursuant to Section 7.08, the Company shall pay the out-of-pocket expenses of the Shareholders either initiating or responding to the exercise of such drag-along or tag-along rights, including the fees and expenses of financial advisors, investment advisors and legal advisors.

(d) If drag-along rights are made available pursuant to Section 7.08(3), Loral agrees to make available to the purchaser of the Equity Shares a covenant of confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation in substance equivalent to that provided to the Company pursuant to Sections 2.04, 4.04 and 4.05 provided, that, in the event of a drag-along right exercised pursuant to clause (i) of Section 7.08(3)(a), Loral shall not be required to provide such confidentiality and non-competition covenant, whether pursuant to Section 2.04, Section 4.04, or otherwise, if the transactions contemplated by the Skynet Asset Transfer Agreement and Skynet Sale Agreement shall not have occurred and Loral Skynet is not being transferred to the purchaser of the Equity Shares in conjunction with such purchase.

- 52 -

(e) In connection with each tag-along or drag-along sale, each Shareholder selling Equity Shares shall, to the extent required by the Shareholder initiating the sale (i) make such representations and warranties with respect to such Shareholder as are customary for transactions of the nature of the proposed transaction, (ii) be required to bear its proportionate share of any escrows, holdbacks or adjustments in respect of the purchase price or indemnification obligations; provided, that no Shareholder shall be obligated (x) to indemnify, other than severally indemnify, any Person in connection with such sale, or (y) to incur liability to any Person in connection with such sale, including, without limitation, under any indemnity, in excess of the lesser of (A) its pro rata share of such liability and (B) the gross proceeds realized by such Shareholder in such sale. Neither PSP nor MHR Fund shall be required to agree to a non-compete or non-solicitation obligation or covenant in connection with any such sale.

7.09 PSP Call Rights

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Loral Default, PSP shall have the right, exercisable for a period of six months following the occurrence of such Loral Default, to deliver to Loral a notice (the “PSP Call Notice”) requiring Loral and its Permitted Transferees to sell to PSP, or to any purchaser as PSP shall designate in such notice (the “PSP Designee”), all of the Equity Shares then owned by Loral or its Permitted Transferees (other than, for greater certainty, any Equity Shares owned by MHR Fund or any of its Affiliates and not acquired from Loral or any of its Affiliates). Such right of PSP shall be exercisable at a price per Equity Share equal to the Fair Market Value thereof, determined as of the date at which the PSP Call Notice is delivered; provided that if Loral Space or an Affiliate breached the terms of Section 2.8(a) of the Skynet Asset Transfer Agreement or, if applicable, Section 2.1(b) of the Ancillary Agreement, or failed to fully perform Section 4.1 of the Loral Alternative Subscription Agreement or Section 4.3 of the Loral Alternative Subscription Agreement, as the case may be, then such right of PSP shall be exercisable at a price per Equity Share equal to the Loral Cost. If PSP shall indicate in the PSP Call Notice that it considers that there has been a breach of Section 2.8(a) of the Skynet Asset Transfer Agreement or, if applicable, Section 2.1(b) of the Ancillary Agreement or Section 4.1 or Section 4.3 of the Loral Alternative Subscription Agreement, and Loral disputes that a breach exists, PSP shall pay to Loral the Loral Cost per Equity Share on the closing date of the exercise of the PSP purchase as provided in this Section 7.09 and PSP shall place into escrow on such closing date with a financial institution satisfactory to Loral and PSP, each acting reasonably, on terms satisfactory to Loral and PSP, each acting reasonably, funds equal to the difference between the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined pursuant to Section 8.03) and the aggregate Loral Cost pending the determination of whether or not such a breach has occurred, and in the event it is determined that such a breach did not occur, such funds held in escrow, together with the accrued interest thereon, shall be paid to Loral, and in

- 53 -

the event it is determined that such a breach did occur, such funds held in escrow, together with the accrued interest thereon, shall be paid to PSP. If Loral and PSP are unable to agree upon a financial institution to act as escrow agent, or are unable to agree upon the terms of an escrow agreement in respect of the holding and disbursement of the escrowed funds, such matters shall be determined by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Article 9 , such arbitration to be based on a standard of commercial reasonableness under the circumstances then existing.

(b) Upon receipt of a PSP Call Notice, Loral and its Permitted Transferees shall be obligated to sell to PSP or the PSP Designee, and PSP shall be obligated to purchase from Loral and its Permitted Transferees, either directly or through the PSP Designee, all of the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees and subject to 7.09(a) at a price per Equity Share determined in accordance with Section 7.09(a) on the day set out in the PSP Call Notice, which shall be not earlier than 90 Business Days nor later than 120 Business Days from the date of the PSP Call Notice.

(c) If PSP designates in the PSP Call Notice a PSP Designee as the purchaser of the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees, such designation shall create a binding obligation on PSP to pay or cause to be paid to Loral and its Permitted Transferees the price per Equity Share provided in Section 7.09(a) on the closing date set out in the PSP Call Notice. If on such closing date, PSP or the PSP Designee is not permitted under Applicable Law to own the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees , PSP shall nevertheless pay to Loral and its Permitted Transferees the purchase price determined in accordance with Section 7.09(a). In such event, Loral and its Permitted Transferees shall reserve and refrain from selling or otherwise dealing with the Equity Shares then owned by them and the rights of PSP with respect to the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees shall be limited to being permitted to acquire the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees at a later date pursuant to Applicable Law, or to procure an acceptable designee, and PSP shall have no other rights with respect to the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees. In the event that by Change of Law PSP is subsequently permitted to acquire the Loral Equity Shares, or PSP procures a designee that may acquire the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees, PSP may give notice of such Change of Law or such designee to the Company, and upon being satisfied that such transfer to PSP or such designee does not contravene Applicable Law, the Company shall then register the transfer of the Equity Shares owned by Loral and its Permitted Transferees to PSP or such designee.

7.10 Loral Call Rights

(a) If (w) there shall have occurred a Loral Change of Control (x) within 90 days after the Loral Change of Control, PSP delivers to the Company and all other holders of Equity Shares a notice requiring the Company to conduct an initial public offering as permitted by Section 6.02 (y) such initial public offering shall not have been consummated within twelve months of the Loral Change of Control

- 54 -

as a result of the failure of the Company, Interco or Loral to use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such initial public offering (as determined by a arbitration pursuant to Article 9 , unless otherwise agreed by PSP and Loral), and (z) PSP shall have delivered to Loral a Company Sale Notice pursuant to Section 7.08(3), Loral shall have the right, exercisable within 75 days of delivery by PSP to Loral of a Company Sale Notice pursuant to Section 7.08(3), to deliver to PSP a notice (the “Loral Call Notice”) requiring PSP to sell to Loral, or to any purchaser as Loral shall designate in such notice (the “Loral Designee”) all of the Equity Shares then owned by PSP at a price per Equity Share equal to Fair Market Value.

(b) Upon receipt of a Loral Call Notice, PSP shall be obligated to sell to Loral, or to the Loral Designee, and Loral shall be obligated to purchase from PSP, either directly or through the Loral Designee, all of the Equity Shares owned by PSP at a price per Equity Share equal to the Fair Market Value on the day which is 20 Business Days after the determination of Fair Market Value per Equity Share has been made pursuant to Section 8.03.

(c) If Loral designates in the Loral Call Notice a Loral Designee as the purchaser of the Equity Shares owned by PSP, such designation shall create a binding obligation on Loral to pay or cause to be paid to PSP the Fair Market Value per Equity Share on the closing date set out in the Loral Call Notice. If on such closing date, Loral or the Loral Designee is not permitted under Applicable Law to own the Loral Equity Shares, Loral shall nevertheless pay to PSP the aggregate Fair Market Value amount. In such event, PSP shall reserve and refrain from selling or otherwise dealing with the Equity Shares then owned by it and the rights of Loral with respect to the PSP Equity Shares shall be limited to being permitted to acquire the PSP Equity Shares at a later date pursuant to Applicable Law, or to procure an acceptable designee, and Loral shall have no other rights with respect to the PSP Equity Shares. In the event that by Change of Law Loral is subsequently permitted to acquire the PSP Equity Shares, or Loral procures a designee that may acquire the PSP Equity Shares, Loral may give notice of such Change of Law or such designee to the Company, and upon being satisfied that such transfer to Loral or such designee does not contravene Applicable Law, the Company shall then register the transfer of the PSP Equity Shares to Loral or such designee.

7.11 Transfers of Director Voting Shares

PSP shall have the right to call, at any time by giving 5 Business Days notice to any holder of Director Voting Preferred Shares, for the transfer of all such Director Voting Preferred Shares owned by such holder to a purchaser designated by PSP in such notice (a “Director Voting Preferred Share Transfer Notice”). Upon delivery of such Directors Voting Preferred Share Transfer Notice, the Shareholder to which such notice is given shall transfer to the Person designated in such Director Voting Preferred Transfer Notice all Director Voting Preferred Shares owned by such Shareholder on the fifth Business Day following delivery of such notice to the Shareholder at a purchase price of $10 per Director Voting Preferred Share, provided that

- 55 -

such purchaser is a Permitted Purchaser. In order to expedite the transfer of Director Voting Preferred Shares pursuant to this Section 7.11, each Shareholder shall deliver to PSP, upon the date of acquisition by such Shareholder of any Director Voting Preferred Shares, all certificates representing such Shares, endorsed in blank for transfer. PSP shall be entitled to deliver such certificates to any Permitted Purchaser in order to facilitate a purchase and sale of Director Voting Preferred Shares pursuant to this Section 7.11, but shall not otherwise be entitled to deal with certificates representing the Director Voting Preferred Shares, which certificates shall otherwise be held custodially by PSP at all times.

7.12 Changes in Law Affecting Permissible Levels of Loral’s Shareholdings

Required Reductions in Share Ownership. If the introduction of or any change in Applicable Law or the interpretation thereof by any court of competent jurisdiction or Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof (any such introduction or change, a “Change in Law”) has the effect of requiring Loral to divest itself of any number of Shares (the “Excess Shares”) that it then holds, or if such Change in Law would render Telesat ineligible to continue to operate its Satellite Communications Business under Applicable Law if Loral continued to hold the Excess Shares, then on or before the effective date of such Change in Law or as soon as possible thereafter if such Change of Law is immediate, Loral shall either:

(a) if the Excess Shares are Common Shares, convert such Excess Shares into an equal number of Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares; or

(b) if the Excess Shares are any other class of Shares, or are Common Shares but the conversion of such Common Shares into Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares would not cause such shares to cease to be Excess Shares, sell the Excess Shares to a Permitted Purchaser (provided that the rights of first offer contained in Section 7.07 shall apply to any such sale).

7.13 Notice of Conversion

Each Shareholder shall give notice to the Corporation and to each holder of Equity Shares of its intention to convert Equity Shares of any class into Equity Shares of any other class, such notice to be given not less than two Business Days prior to the intended conversion date.

7.14 Share Certificates Legend

All Share certificates of the Company shall bear the following legend conspicuously on their face:

“The shares represented by this certificate are subject to the terms and conditions of a unanimous shareholder agreement made as of October 31, 2007 and are not transferable except in compliance with that agreement.”

- 56 -

ARTICLE 8 - GENERAL SALE PROVISIONS

8.01 Application of Sale Provisions

Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this Article 8 shall apply to any sale of Equity Shares (each a “Sale Transaction”) between or among Shareholders or their designees or between a Shareholder or its designee and the Company, in each case pursuant to this Agreement.

8.02 Defined Terms

For the purposes of this Article 8 :

(1) “Purchased Shares” means the Equity Shares to be purchased and sold or issued and taken up and paid for in any Sale Transaction; and

(2) “Purchase Price” means the amount to be paid as the purchase or subscription price for the Purchased Shares.

8.03 Determination of Fair Market Value

(1) By Agreement. Where the Fair Market Value of Equity Shares to be purchased and sold under this Agreement is required to be determined, such Fair Market Value shall be the value agreed by the parties to the Sale Transaction within 20 Business Days of the date on which the applicable offer to sell is made or deemed to be made, or in the case of Section 7.09, the date the PSP Call Notice is delivered (the “Determination Date”).

(2) Valuation. If the parties cannot agree on the Fair Market Value within 20 Business Days of the Determination Date, the Fair Market Value of the Equity Shares to be purchased and sold shall be determined as follows:

(a) Within 25 Business Days of the Determination Date, the purchaser shall give notice to the vendor proposing the name of the business valuer (the “Valuer”) that the purchaser wishes to determine the Fair Market Value of the Equity Shares to be purchased and sold. Within 10 Business Days after receipt of the notice, the vendor shall give notice to the purchaser advising whether the vendor accepts such Valuer.

(b) If no notice is given by the vendor within the specified period, the vendor will be deemed to have accepted the Valuer. If notice is given by the vendor within the specified period that it rejects the Valuer proposed by the purchaser, the purchaser may engage the Valuer but the vendor may engage a separate business valuer (the “Vendor’s Valuer”).

(c) Each individual selected as a Valuer or a Vendor’s Valuer:

(i) shall be qualified by education and experience to value corporations in the telecommunications industry;

- 57 -

(ii) shall be at Arm’s Length to both parties and not otherwise an Interested Party; and

(iii) shall not be an individual who is a member or employee of a Person that has otherwise been retained by either of the parties.

(d) Except as specified in the last sentence of this Section 8.03(2)(d), the Costs and Expenses of the Valuer shall be paid by the purchaser, or, if there is more than one purchaser, by the purchasers in accordance with their Pro Rata Proportions relative to each other. Except as specified in the last sentence of this Section 8.03(2)(d), the Costs and Expenses of the Vendor’s Valuer shall be paid by the Vendor. In the event that Fair Market Value is being determined for the purposes of Section 7.09, the Costs and Expenses of the Valuer and the Vendor’s Valuer shall each be paid by the Company.

(e) The Valuer shall be instructed to prepare a written valuation report on the Fair Market Value of the Equity Shares. The valuation report must contain disclosure consistent with that required under OSC Rule 61-501 and Companion Policy 61-501CP issued pursuant to the Securities Act (Ontario) as it may be amended from time to time and Appendix A to Standard #110 “Valuation Report Standards and Recommendations” of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Business Valuators as it was on the date of this Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Agreement as Schedule 8.3(b). The Company will cooperate fully in providing to the Valuer information and access to management. The Valuer shall provide a draft of its report to the parties within 60 Business Days of the Determination Date. The draft may omit value conclusions but shall set out major assumptions, judgments, pertinent empirical evidence and a detailed framework for valuation calculations. The parties shall provide written comments on the draft to the Valuer within 70 Business Days of the Determination Date. The Valuer shall provide its final valuation report to the parties within 80 Business Days of the Determination Date.

(f) The Company will provide the Vendor’s Valuer with the same cooperation, information and access as that provided to the Valuer. The Vendor’s Valuer shall be instructed to adhere to the same valuation report timetable, disclosure and process as that described in Section 8.03(2)(e).

(g) The vendor may provide to the Valuer the draft valuation report of the Vendor’s Valuer and the purchaser may provide to the Vendor’s Valuer the draft valuation report of the Valuer.

(h) Subject to Section 8.03(2)(i), where the price of the Equity Shares to be purchased and sold is their Fair Market Value, such price shall be the Fair Market Value set out in the Valuer’s valuation report. If in the Valuer’s valuation report Fair Market Value is expressed to be within a range, the mid-point of the range shall be the price of such Equity Shares.

- 58 -

(i) If the vendor notifies the purchaser within 90 Business Days of the Determination Date that it is not satisfied with the price determined under Section 8.03(2)(h) and if the Vendor’s Valuer has prepared a report as set out in Section 8.03(2)(f) then the final Valuer’s report and the final Vendor’s Valuer’s report shall be submitted to an Arbitrator, who shall determine the price of the Equity Shares to be purchased and sold in accordance with the provisions of Schedule E.

(j) The Arbitrator shall not be requested to prepare a third valuation but shall be requested to review the two valuation reports and any written comments from the vendor or purchaser provided under Section 8.03(2)(e), and to interview the purchaser, vendor, representatives of the Company, the Valuer and the Vendor’s Valuer and, on the basis of that review, to determine the price of the Equity Shares to be purchased and sold. In conducting its review, the Arbitrator shall give particular emphasis to the qualifications and independence of the Valuer and the Vendor’s Valuer, the scope of their work and analysis and the fullness and clarity of the disclosure of assumptions, judgments, pertinent empirical evidence and calculations in the valuation reports.

(k) If the determination of Fair Market Value by the Arbitrator is:

(i) equal to or less than 5% above the Fair Market Value determined by the Valuer, then all Costs and Expenses of the arbitration shall be paid by the vendor; and

(ii) more than 5% above the Fair Market Value determined by the Valuer, then all Costs and Expenses of the arbitration shall be paid by the purchaser, or if there is more than one purchaser, by the purchasers in accordance with their Pro Rata Proportions relative to each other.

(l) The determination of Fair Market Value by the Arbitrator shall be final and binding on the vendor and purchaser.

8.04 Payment and Closing Provisions

The following shall apply to each Sale Transaction subject to any express provisions to the contrary:

(1) Payment of Purchase Price and Delivery of Certificates. The Purchase Price shall be paid in cash, by wire transfer or bank draft or certified cheque drawn on a Canadian chartered bank at the time of closing on the Sale Closing Date at the place of closing against receipt by the purchaser of the share certificate or certificates representing the Purchased Shares, duly endorsed in blank for transfer with signatures guaranteed by a Canadian chartered bank or trust company.

- 59 -

(2) Title. The seller of the Purchased Shares (the “Vendor”) shall represent and warrant in writing, such warranty to survive closing, that it has good and marketable title to the Purchased Shares (or in the case of an issuance of Shares from treasury, that the Purchased Shares have been duly issued as fully paid and non-assessable) and clear of any Lien except for the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall deliver to the purchaser all such documents, instruments and releases and shall take all such steps and do all such acts and things as may be necessary or desirable to vest such title in the purchaser.

(3) Section 116 of the Income Tax Act. The Vendor (other than the Company) shall either provide the purchaser with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the purchaser that the Vendor is not then a non-resident of Canada within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or provide the purchaser with a certificate pursuant to Subsection 116(2) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) with a certificate limit in an amount not less than the Purchase Price for the Purchased Shares; provided that if such evidence or certificate is not forthcoming, the purchaser shall be entitled to make the payment of tax required under Section 116 of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and to deduct such payment from the Purchase Price for the Purchased Shares.

(4) Vendor’s Non–Completion

(a) If on the Sale Closing Date, the Vendor shall default in its performance of the Sale Transaction, the purchaser shall have the right upon such default (without prejudice to any other rights which it may have) to pay the Purchase Price to the credit of the Vendor in a special account at the principal branch of the Company’s principal bankers in the City of Toronto, and upon such payment to complete the Sale Transaction as aforesaid.

(b) If the Purchase Price is so deposited into a special account at the branch of the Company’s bankers in the name of the Vendor, then from and after the date of such deposit, and even though the certificates evidencing the Shares held by the Vendor have not been delivered to the purchaser, the purchase of such Shares shall be deemed to have been fully completed and all right, title, benefit and interest, both at law and in equity, in and to such Shares shall be conclusively deemed to have been transferred and assigned to and become vested in the purchaser and all right, title, benefit and interest, both at law and in equity, of the Vendor or of any transferee, assignee or any other Person having any interest, legal or equitable, therein or thereto, whether as a shareholder or creditor of the Company or otherwise, shall cease; provided, however, that the Vendor shall be entitled to receive the Purchase Price so deposited, without interest.

(c) The Vendor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the corporate secretary of each purchaser as the Vendor’s true and lawful attorney–in–fact and agent for, in the name and of and on behalf of, the Vendor to execute and deliver in the name of the Vendor, in the event that the Vendor defaults in signing, all such documents or instruments as may be necessary to transfer and assign the Shares, or any part thereof, to the purchaser, or its nominee or nominees, on the books of the Company. The Vendor hereby ratifies and confirms and agrees to ratify and confirm all that any purchaser may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of the provisions hereof.

- 60 -

(d) The Vendor hereby irrevocably consents to any transfer of the Shares or any part thereof made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.04(4).

(e) The Vendor shall be entitled to receive the Purchase Price deposited with the bankers of the Company upon delivery to the purchaser of certificates evidencing the shares so purchased duly endorsed in blank for transfer with signatures guaranteed by a Canadian chartered bank or trust company together with any other documents required to be delivered hereunder which have not been previously delivered.

8.05 Consents

The parties acknowledge that any transfer of Shares, including upon the completion of any Sale Transaction, shall be subject, in any event, to the receipt of all Regulatory Approvals required for the transfer of Shares contemplated thereby and, for the purpose of obtaining such Regulatory Approvals or other such approvals, permits and consents, the Sale Closing Date provided for elsewhere in this Agreement may be extended for such reasonable time as may be required and the parties shall cooperate fully in securing same. Accordingly, the parties agree that any purchase and sale of Shares hereunder shall be completed, if Regulatory Approval is required, on the later of the Sale Closing Date provided for elsewhere in this Agreement and ten Business Days after the date on which Regulatory Approval is obtained, but in any event, no later than the later of (a) 180 days after the Sale Closing Date provided for elsewhere in this Agreement and (b) the date of the final determination of an application for such Regulatory Approval where such application has been filed prior to the expiry of such period of 180 days.

8.06 Time and Place of Closing

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties to a Sale Transaction, the closing of the Sale Transaction shall take place at the registered office of the Company at 11:00 a.m. on the Sale Closing Date.

8.07 No Joint and Several Liability

Nothing in this Agreement shall make any purchaser jointly and severally liable for the obligations of any other purchaser.

8.08 Designee Purchases

If a Shareholder is given the right or opportunity to purchase Shares under this Agreement but is prohibited from doing so by Applicable Law (such as, by way of example and not limitation, limitations on foreign ownership of telecommunications companies), such Shareholder may select a designee which is a Permitted Purchaser, which designee shall be entitled to exercise the right or opportunity to purchase the Shares in such Shareholder’s stead to the extent that such Shareholder is prohibited from doing so itself. Each such designee shall execute an acknowledgement of the terms of this Agreement substantially in the form of Schedule H and shall thereafter have the rights and obligations hereunder as a Shareholder. In exercising its rights under this Section 8.08, each Shareholder shall, to the extent practicable, minimize the number of its designees.
