(a) in the event it acquires rights in any Investment Related Property after the date hereof, it shall deliver to the Canadian Collateral Agent a completed Pledge Supplement, substantially in the form of Annex I, together with all Supplements to Schedules thereto, reflecting such new Investment Related Property and all other Investment Related Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the security interest of the Canadian Collateral Agent shall attach to all Investment Related Property immediately upon any Canadian Grantor’s acquisition of rights therein and shall not be affected by the failure of any Canadian Grantor to deliver a supplement to Schedule III as required hereby;

(b) except as provided in the next sentence, in the event such Canadian Grantor receives any dividends, interest or distributions on any Investment Related Property, or any securities or other property upon the merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution of any issuer of any Investment Related Property, then (a) such dividends, interest or distributions and securities or other property shall be included in the definition of Collateral without further action and (b) such Canadian Grantor shall immediately take all steps, if any, necessary or advisable to ensure the validity, perfection, priority and, if applicable, control of the Canadian Collateral Agent over such Investment Related Property (including,

without limitation, delivery thereof to the Canadian Collateral Agent) and pending any such action such Canadian Grantor shall be deemed to hold such dividends, interest, distributions, securities or other property in trust for the benefit of the Canadian Collateral Agent and shall be segregated from all other property of such Canadian Grantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Canadian Collateral Agent authorizes each Canadian Grantor to retain all ordinary cash dividends and distributions paid in accordance with Section 6.06 of the Credit Agreement, and all scheduled payments of interest; and

(c) each Canadian Grantor shall take such additional actions, including, without limitation, causing the issuer to register the pledge on its books and records or making such filings or recordings, in each case as may be necessary or advisable, under the laws of such issuer’s jurisdiction to insure the validity, perfection and priority of the security interest of the Canadian Collateral Agent. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have the right, without notice to any Canadian Grantor except as set forth in Section 7.5(6), to transfer all or any portion of the Investment Related Property to its name or the name of its nominee or agent.

(2) Delivery and Control. Each Canadian Grantor agrees that with respect to any Investment Related Property in which it currently has rights it shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4.7(2) on or before the Representation Date and with respect to any Investment Related Property hereafter acquired by such Canadian Grantor it shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4.7(2) immediately upon acquiring rights therein, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Canadian Collateral Agent. With respect to any Investment Related Property that is represented by a certificate or that is an “Instrument” (other than any Investment Related Property credited to a Securities Account) it shall cause such certificate or Instrument to be delivered to the Canadian Collateral Agent, endorsed in blank or accompanied by a duly executed transfer power. With respect to any Investment Related Property, other than Pledged NSULC Stock, that is an “uncertificated security”, it shall cause the issuer of such uncertificated security to register the Canadian Collateral Agent as the registered owner thereof on the books and records of the issuer.

(3) Voting and Distributions.

(a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i) except as otherwise provided under the covenants and agreements relating to Investment Related Property in this Agreement or elsewhere herein or in the Credit Agreement, each Canadian Grantor shall be entitled to

exercise or refrain from exercising any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Investment Related Property or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement; provided, no Canadian Grantor shall exercise or refrain from exercising any such right if the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have notified such Canadian Grantor that, in the Canadian Collateral Agent’s reasonable judgment, such action would have a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Investment Related Property or any part thereof; and provided further, such Canadian Grantor shall give the Canadian Collateral Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the manner in which it intends to exercise, or the reasons for refraining from exercising, any such right; it being understood, however, that neither the voting by such Canadian Grantor of any Pledged Stock for, or such Canadian Grantor’s consent to, the election of directors (or similar governing body) at a regularly scheduled annual or other meeting of stockholders or with respect to incidental matters at any such meeting, nor such Canadian Grantor’s consent to or approval of any action otherwise permitted under this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, shall be deemed inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement within the meaning of this Section 4.7(3)(a)(i), and no notice of any such voting or consent need be given to the Canadian Collateral Agent; and

(ii) the Canadian Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to each Canadian Grantor all proxies, and other instruments as such Canadian Grantor may from time to time reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Canadian Grantor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights when and to the extent which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to clause (i) above; and

(b) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(i) subject to Section 7.5(6), all rights of each Canadian Grantor to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Canadian Collateral Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights; and

(ii) in order to permit the Canadian Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder: (1) each Canadian Grantor shall promptly

execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Canadian Collateral Agent all proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Canadian Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request and (2) each Canadian Grantor acknowledges that the Canadian Collateral Agent may utilize the power of attorney set forth in Section 6.

SECTION 5 – ACCESS; RIGHT OF INSPECTION AND FURTHER ASSURANCES; ADDITIONAL GRANTORS

5.1 Access; Right of Inspection

The Canadian Collateral Agent and its representatives shall have the right to enter any premises of any Canadian Grantor during normal business hours, and upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, at any time, and inspect any property of each Canadian Grantor where any of the Collateral of such Canadian Grantor granted pursuant to this Agreement is located for the purpose of inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise protecting its interests therein.

5.2 Further Assurances

Each Canadian Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such Canadian Grantor, that it shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that the Canadian Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to create and/or maintain the validity, perfection or priority of and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Canadian Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Canadian Grantor shall;

(a) file such financing statements or financing change statements, and execute and deliver such other agreements, instruments, endorsements, powers of attorney or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Canadian Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the Liens granted or purported to be granted hereby;

(b) take all actions reasonably necessary to ensure the recordation of appropriate evidence of the Liens granted hereunder in Intellectual Property with any intellectual property registry in which said Intellectual Property is registered or in

which an application for registration is pending including, without limitation, CIPO and the foreign counterparts thereof;

(c) at any reasonable time, upon request by the Canadian Collateral Agent, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Canadian Collateral Agent and make it available to the Canadian Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by the Canadian Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties and allow inspection of the Collateral by the Canadian Collateral Agent, or persons designated by the Canadian Collateral Agent; and

(d) at the Canadian Collateral Agent’s request, appear in and defend any action or proceeding that may affect such Canadian Grantor’s title to or the Canadian Collateral Agent’s Lien in all or any part of the Collateral.

(2) Each Canadian Grantor hereby authorizes the Canadian Collateral Agent to take all steps it deems reasonably necessary to maintain and preserve the Collateral, consistent with the Canadian Grantor’s obligations to do so hereunder, including, with respect to Intellectual Property included in the Collateral, the making of additional filings, the payment of maintenance fees, and the defense of challenges to the Canadian Grantor’s title or validity, all at the Canadian Grantor’s expense.

(3) Each Canadian Grantor hereby authorizes the filing of any financing statements or financing change statements, or any similar document in any jurisdictions and with any filing offices as the Canadian Collateral Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the Lien granted to the Canadian Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Such financing statements or financing change statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Canadian Collateral Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the Lien in the Collateral granted to the Canadian Collateral Agent under this Agreement, including, without limitation, describing such property as “all assets” or “all personal property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.” Each Canadian Grantor shall furnish to the Canadian Collateral Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Canadian Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

(4) Each Canadian Grantor hereby authorizes the Canadian Collateral Agent to modify this Agreement after obtaining such Canadian Grantor’s approval of or signature to such modification by amending Schedule VI (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time in connection with the delivery of a Pledge Supplement hereunder) to include reference to any right, title or interest in any existing Intellectual Property or any Intellectual Property acquired or developed by any Canadian Grantor after the execution hereof.

5.3 Additional Canadian Grantors

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

SECTION 6 – COLLATERAL AGENT APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

6.1 Power of Attorney

(1) Each Canadian Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Canadian Collateral Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Canadian Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Canadian Grantor and in the name of such Canadian Grantor, the Canadian Collateral Agent or otherwise, from time to time in the Canadian Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Canadian Collateral Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the following:

(a) to prepare, sign, and file for recordation in any Intellectual Property registry, appropriate evidence of the Lien granted herein in the Intellectual Property in the name of such Canadian Grantor as assignor or pledgor;

(b) to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to perform or comply or cause performance or compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default access to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than Liens permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by the Canadian Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, any such payments made by the Canadian Collateral Agent to become obligations of such Canadian Grantor to the Canadian Collateral Agent, due and payable immediately without demand; and

(i) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Canadian Grantor or paid to the Canadian Collateral Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents;

(ii) to ask for, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

(iii) to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with Section 6.1(1)(b) above;

(iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Canadian Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Canadian Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral; and

(v) to sell, transfer, assign, lease, license, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Canadian Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Canadian Collateral Agent’s option and such Canadian Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time-to-time, all acts and things that the Canadian Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve, or realize upon the Collateral and the Canadian Collateral Agent’s security interest therein as fully and effectively as such Canadian Grantor might do.

(2) The powers conferred on the Canadian Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and the interests of the Canadian Secured Parties and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Canadian Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Canadian Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither the Canadian Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Canadian Grantor or otherwise. If any Canadian Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Canadian Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expanses of the

Canadian Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Canadian Grantor under Section 12.3 relating to the payment of expenses.

SECTION 7 – REMEDIES

7.1 Generally

(1) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Canadian Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of the Canadian Collateral Agent on default under the PPSA (whether or not the PPSA applies to the affected Collateral) to collect, enforce or satisfy any Canadian Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

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

(b) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located through self-help, without any obligation to pay rent and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

(c) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Canadian Collateral Agent deems appropriate; provided that processed, reconditioned, or repaired products that are sold under the Canadian Grantor’s Trademarks shall be of at least substantially comparable quality to the same products those sold under such Trademarks at the time of the Event of Default, and shall, if applicable, be labeled as “reconditioned”, or the like, to the extent required by law;

(d) require that each Canadian Grantor store and keep any Collateral pending further action by the Canadian Collateral Agent, and while Collateral is so stored or kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain Collateral in good condition, and prior to its disposition, shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Canadian Collateral Agent; provided that the Canadian Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation to any Canadian Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of any Canadian

Grantor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of the Canadian Collateral Agent;

(c) seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper pursuant to Section 7.2 to take possession of the Collateral and to enforce any of the Canadian Collateral Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Canadian Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment; and

(f) without notice, except as specified below or under the PPSA, sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, to the extent the Canadian Grantor has the lawful right to do so), or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Canadian Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Canadian Collateral Agent may deem best.

(2) The Canadian Collateral Agent or any Canadian Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent to portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the PPSA and the Canadian Collateral Agent, as Canadian Collateral Agent for and representative of the Canadian Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the PPSA, to use and apply any of the Canadian Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Canadian Collateral Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Canadian Grantor, and each Canadian Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Canadian Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least fifteen (15) days notice to such Canadian Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Canadian Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Canadian Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Canadian Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Canadian Collateral Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Canadian Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Canadian Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Canadian

Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Canadian Secured Obligations, each Canadian Grantor shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by the Canadian Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Canadian Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Canadian Collateral Agent, that the Canadian Collateral Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Canadian Grantor, and such Canadian Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Canadian Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way alter the rights of the Canadian Collateral Agent hereunder.

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

(4) To the extent that applicable laws impose duties on the Canadian Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Canadian Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Canadian Collateral Agent:

(a) to fail to incur significant costs, expenses or other liabilities reasonably deemed as such by the Canadian Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition;

(b) to fail to obtain Permits or other consents for access to Collateral to sell or otherwise dispose of or for the collection or sale or disposition of Collateral, or, if not required by other applicable law, to fail to obtain Permits or other consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral;

(c) to fail to exercise remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on Collateral or to remove any adverse claims against Collateral;

(d) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature or to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Canadian Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring any of such Collateral;

(e) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral, directly or through the use of collection agencies or other

collection specialists, to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature or, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Canadian Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Canadian Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral, or to utilize Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets to dispose of Collateral;

(f) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets;

(g) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment; and

(h) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Canadian Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Canadian Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral.

(5) Each Canadian Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this clause is to provide a non-exhaustive list of actions or omissions that are commercially reasonable when exercising remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Canadian Secured Parties shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this clause. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this clause shall be construed to grant any rights to any Canadian Grantor or to impose any duties on the Canadian Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this clause.

7.2 Appointment of Receiver

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Canadian Collateral Agent may appoint or reappoint by instrument in writing, any Person or Persons, whether an officer or officers or an employee or employees of a Canadian Grantor or not, to be an interim receiver, receiver or receivers (hereinafter called a “Receiver”, which term when used herein shall include a receiver and manager) of such Collateral (including any interest, income or profits therefrom) and may remove any Receiver so appointed and appoint another in his/her/its stead. Any such Receiver shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, so far as concerns responsibility for his/her/its acts, be deemed the agent of the Canadian Grantor and not of the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall not be in any way responsible for any misconduct, negligence or non-feasance on the part of any such Receiver or his/her/its servants, agents or employees. Subject to the provisions of the instrument appointing him/her/it, any such Receiver shall (i) have such powers as have been granted to the Collateral Agent under this Section 7, and (ii) shall be entitled to exercise such powers at any time that such powers would

otherwise be exercisable by the Collateral Agent under this Section 7, which powers shall include the power to take possession of the Collateral, to preserve the Collateral or its value, to carry on or concur in carrying on all or any part of the business of Canadian Grantor and to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of or concur in selling, leasing, licensing or otherwise disposing of the Collateral. To facilitate the foregoing powers, any such Receiver may, to the exclusion of all others, including the Canadian Grantor, enter upon, use and occupy all premises owned or occupied by the Canadian Grantor wherein the Collateral may be situate, maintain the Collateral upon such premises, borrow money on a secured or unsecured basis and use the Collateral directly in carrying on the Canadian Grantor’s business or as security for loans or advances to enable the Receiver to carry on the Canadian Grantor’s business or otherwise, as such Receiver shall, in its reasonable discretion, determine. Except as may be otherwise directed by the Canadian Collateral Agent, all money received from time to time by such Receiver in carrying out his/her/its appointment shall be received in trust for and be paid over to the Canadian Collateral Agent, and any surplus shall be applied in accordance with applicable law. Every such Receiver may, in the discretion of the Canadian Collateral Agent, be vested with all or any of the rights and powers of the Canadian Collateral Agent.

7.3 Application of Proceeds

Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, all proceeds received by the Canadian Collateral Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Canadian Collateral Agent against, the Canadian Secured Obligations in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Canadian Collateral Agent, any Receiver and any agents or counsel of the Canadian Collateral Agent, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Canadian Collateral Agent or any Receiver in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Canadian Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder (in its capacity as the Canadian Collateral Agent) and all advances made by the Canadian Collateral Agent hereunder for the account of the applicable Canadian Grantor, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Canadian Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any Loan Document, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment of all other Canadian Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of each Canadian Secured Party in the order set forth in Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement, and third, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of such Canadian Grantor or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

7.4 Sales on Credit

If Canadian Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Canadian Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by Canadian

Collateral Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Canadian Collateral Agent may resell the Collateral and Canadian Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.

7.5 Investment Related Property

(1) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Canadian Grantor of the Canadian Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 7.5(2), each Canadian Grantor shall be permitted to receive all payments made in respect of the Pledged Debt and all cash dividends or distributions paid in respect of the Pledged Equity Interests unless otherwise prohibited by the Credit Agreement, shall remain the legal and beneficial owner of the Investment Related Property pledged by such Canadian Grantor and shall retain all of the incidents of such ownership, including the right to exercise all voting and corporate rights with respect to such Investment Related Property.

(2) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Canadian Collateral Agent has given notice of its intent to exercise its rights pursuant to this Section to the relevant Canadian Grantor or Canadian Grantors, (i) unless otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Related Property and make application thereof to the Canadian Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 7.3, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Equity Interests shall, at the sole discretion of the Canadian Collateral Agent, be registered in the name of the Canadian Collateral Agent or its nominee, and the Canadian Collateral Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Equity Interests at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant issuer or issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Related Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Equity Interests upon the merger, amalgamation, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any issuer, or upon the exercise by any Canadian Grantor or the Canadian Collateral Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Stock, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Stock with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Canadian Collateral Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have no duty to any Canadian Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing unless the Canadian Collateral Agent has given notice of its intent to exercise as set forth above. For greater certainty, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to subject the Canadian Collateral Agent or any Canadian Secured Party to liability as a member or owner of any Issuer nor shall the Canadian Collateral Agent or any Canadian Secured Party be deemed to have assumed any obligations under any operating

agreement, subscription agreement, keep-well agreement, shareholder agreement, partnership or similar agreement relating to the Pledged Stock or otherwise.

(3) Each Canadian Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each issuer of any Pledged Equity Interest pledged by such Canadian Grantor hereunder to comply with any instruction received by it from the Canadian Collateral Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (y) states that the Canadian Collateral Agent has given notice of its intent to exercise its rights pursuant to Section 7.5(2) and (z) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Canadian Grantor, and each Canadian Grantor agrees that each issuer shall be fully protected in so complying.

(4) Each Canadian Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Investment Related Property pursuant to this clause valid and binding and in compliance with all applicable laws. Each Canadian Grantor further agrees that a breach of any covenant contained in this clause will cause irreparable injury to the Canadian Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Canadian Collateral Agent and the other Canadian Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this clause shall be specifically enforceable against such Canadian Grantor, and such Canadian Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.

(5) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have the right to apply the balance from any Deposit Account or instruct the bank at which any Deposit Account is maintained to pay the balance of any Deposit Account to or for the benefit of the Canadian Collateral Agent.

(6) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the rights and remedies granted to the Canadian Collateral Agent herein in respect of any Pledged NSULC Stock (other than the grant of the security interest) shall be exercisable or otherwise vest in the Collateral Agent or any other Canadian Secured Party hereunder and the applicable Canadian Grantor shall remain the legal and beneficial owner of the Pledged NSULC Stock and shall retain all of the incidents of such ownership until (i) an Event of Default has occurred, and (ii) the Canadian Collateral Agent has given notice to the applicable Canadian Grantor of such Event of Default and its intention to exercise such rights and remedies in respect of such Pledged NSULC Stock. Nothing herein shall be construed to subject the Canadian Collateral Agent or any other Canadian Secured Party hereunder to liability as a member or owner of shares of a Nova Scotia unlimited liability company.

7.6 Intellectual Property

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

(a) the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Canadian Grantor, the Canadian Collateral Agent or otherwise, in the Canadian Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property which is included in the Collateral, in which event, such Canadian Grantor shall, at the request of the Canadian Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by the Canadian Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Canadian Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Canadian Collateral Agent as provided in Section 11 relating to indemnity and expenses in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section, and, to the extent that the Canadian Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property as provided in this Section, each Canadian Grantor agrees to take all reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement of any of the Intellectual Property by others, and for that purpose, agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing as shall be necessary to prevent such infringement;

(b) upon written demand from the Canadian Collateral Agent, each Canadian Grantor shall assign, convey or otherwise transfer to the Canadian Collateral Agent, or such Canadian Collateral Agent’s designee, all of such Canadian Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property included in the Collateral, and shall execute and deliver to the Canadian Collateral Agent such documents as are necessary to effectuate and record such assignment, conveyance, or transfer of, or other evidence of foreclosure upon, such Intellectual Property;

(c) in the event of any assignment, conveyance or other transfer of any of the Trademarks included in the Collateral, the goodwill symbolized by any such Trademarks shall be included in such sale or transfer, and such Canadian Grantor shall supply to the Canadian Collateral Agent or its designee such Canadian Grantor’s manufacturing, advertising, and distribution know-how, and copies of records embodying such know-how, relating to products and services theretofore sold under such Trademarks;

(d) each Canadian Grantor agrees that an assignment, conveyance, or transfer of any Intellectual Property included in the Collateral shall be applied to reduce the Canadian Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that the Canadian Collateral Agent receives cash proceeds in respect of such assignment, conveyance, or other transfer of the Intellectual Property;

(e) within five (5) Business Days after written notice from the Canadian Collateral Agent, each Canadian Grantor shall make available to the Canadian Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Canadian Grantor’s power and authority, such

personnel in such Canadian Grantor’s employ on the date of such Event of Default as the Canadian Collateral Agent may reasonably designate, by name, title or by job responsibility, to permit such Canadian Grantor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise, and sell the products and services sold or delivered by such Canadian Grantor under Intellectual Property included in the Collateral on the Canadian Collateral Agent’s behalf and to be compensated by the Canadian Collateral Agent at such Canadian Grantor’s expense) consistent with the salary and benefit structure applicable to each, as of the date of such Event of Default;

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

(g) all amounts and proceeds (including cheques and other instruments) received by any Canadian Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Canadian Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Canadian Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Canadian Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to the Canadian Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by Section 7.7 relating to cash proceeds; and

(h) no Canadian Grantor shall adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.

(2) If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to the Canadian Collateral Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Canadian Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Canadian Grantor, the Canadian Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Canadian Grantor, at such Canadian Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Canadian Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Canadian Collateral Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof (including a lease or license) that may have been

made by the Canadian Collateral Agent; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Canadian Collateral Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Canadian Collateral Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided further, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any Liens granted by or on behalf of the Canadian Collateral Agent and the Canadian Collateral Agents.

(3) Solely for the purpose of enabling the Canadian Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 7, at such time as the Canadian Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Canadian Grantor hereby grants to the Canadian Collateral Agent, to the extent it has the right to do so at law and under its contractual obligations, an irrevocable, non-exclusive worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Canadian Grantor), to use, operate under, license, or sublicense any Intellectual Property now or hereafter owned by or licensed to such Canadian Grantor, subject, in the case of Trademarks, to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the products and services sold under such Trademarks at a level at least substantially comparable to that prevailing at the time of Event of Default. The foregoing license grant to the Canadian Collateral Agent is in addition to, and not in limitation of, Canadian Collateral Agent’s rights under Section 7.1 or the Power of Attorney granted under Section 6.

7.7 Cash Proceeds

All Cash Proceeds shall be held by each Canadian Grantor in trust for the Canadian Collateral Agent, segregated from other funds of such Canadian Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Canadian Grantor, be turned over to the Canadian Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Canadian Grantor (duly indorsed by such Canadian Grantor to the Canadian Collateral Agent, if required) and held by the Canadian Collateral Agent in the Canadian Collateral Account. Any Cash Proceeds received by the Canadian Collateral Agent (whether from a Canadian Grantor or otherwise) (i) if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be held by the Canadian Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Canadian Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Canadian Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, may, in the sole discretion of the Canadian Collateral Agent, (A) be held by the Canadian Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of each Canadian Secured Party, as collateral security for the Canadian Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and/or (B) then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Canadian Collateral Agent against the Canadian Secured Obligations then due and owing in accordance with Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 8 – CANADIAN COLLATERAL AGENT

(1) The Canadian Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Canadian Collateral Agent hereunder by each Canadian Secured Party either pursuant to the Loan Documents or by their acceptance of the benefits hereof. The Canadian Collateral Agent shall only be obligated, and

shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. Without the written consent of the Canadian Secured Parties that would be affected thereby, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would release all or substantially all of the Collateral except as expressly provided herein. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Canadian Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Canadian Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Canadian Collateral Agent for the benefit of each Canadian Secured Party in accordance with the terms of this Section.

(2) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Canadian Collateral Agent as provided in this Section 8(2), the Canadian Collateral Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Administrative Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the applicable Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by such Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Canadian Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Canadian Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Canadian Collateral Agent which shall be a commercial bank or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank.

(3) Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Canadian Collateral Agent under the terms of this Section by a successor Canadian Collateral Agent, that successor Canadian Collateral Agent shall thereby also be deemed the successor Canadian Collateral Agent and such successor Canadian Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Canadian Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Canadian Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Canadian Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Canadian Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Canadian Collateral Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Canadian Collateral Agent of the security interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Canadian Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.

SECTION 9 – CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS

This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Canadian Secured Obligations, the cancellation or termination of the commitments and any other contingent obligation included in the Canadian Secured Obligations, be binding upon each Canadian Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Canadian Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Canadian Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, each Canadian Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any Canadian Secured Obligations held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to each Canadian Secured Party herein or otherwise. Upon the payment in full of all Canadian Secured Obligations, the cancellation or termination of the commitments and any other contingent obligation included in the Canadian Secured Obligations, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert and be deemed reassigned to Canadian Grantors. Upon any such termination, the Canadian Collateral Agent shall, at the Canadian Grantors’ request and expense, execute and deliver to Canadian Grantors such documents as Canadian Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination reversions and/or reassignment, without recourse, representation, or warranty of any kind.

SECTION 10 – STANDARD OF CARE; COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM

The powers conferred on the Canadian Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and the interests of the Secured Parties and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Canadian Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Canadian Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Canadian Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither the Canadian Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Canadian Grantor or otherwise. If any Canadian Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Canadian Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Canadian Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Canadian Grantor under Section 12.3 relating to the payment of expenses.

(b) to pay to the Canadian Collateral Agent promptly following written demand the amount of any and all reasonable costs and reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement.

(2) The obligations of each Canadian Grantor in this Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of such Canadian Grantor’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Swap Agreements, Banking Services and any other Loan Documents.

If, prior to any of the foregoing, any Lien or other Collateral securing such Canadian Grantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender, such Lien or other Collateral shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any such Canadian Grantor in respect of any Lien or other Collateral securing such obligation or the amount of such payment.

(2) No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Canadian Collateral Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights, powers and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.
