in each case on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date to be held in escrow by the Escrow Agents, Purchaser’s Counsel or Vendor’s Counsel as the case may be pursuant to the Escrow Agreements by the Escrow Agents and by counsel upon mutually agreed upon escrow conditions, in each case, giving effect to the terms of this Section 2.1(b),

(ii) at the Closing Time, if the Vendor’s Conditions have been satisfied or waived by the Vendor in accordance with this Agreement, Vendor shall so notify each of the Escrow Agent and Purchaser’s Counsel in writing (with a copy to the Purchaser), and, in like manner, if the Purchaser’s Conditions have been satisfied or waived by Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement, Purchaser shall so notify each of the Escrow Agent and Vendor’s Counsel in writing (with a copy to the other Vendor),

(iii) if the Vendor’s Conditions and the Purchaser’s Conditions have been satisfied or waived by the applicable Party and notice thereof given by both Parties in writing as contemplated by Section 2.1(b)(ii), then on the Business Day next following the Closing Date, the Escrow Agent and Vendor’s Counsel, as applicable, shall release to Purchaser the Share Documents and the other Closing Documents to which Purchaser is entitled hereunder, and the Escrow Agents and Purchaser’s Counsel, as applicable, shall release to Vendor the Closing Consideration and the other Closing Documents to which Vendor is entitled hereunder, provided that no Closing Documents, including the Share Documents, shall be released from escrow until Vendor has confirmed receipt of the Closing Consideration and has so notified the Escrow Agents and Purchaser’s Counsel (which Vendor agrees to do promptly upon receiving confirmation of receipt of the Closing Consideration) at which time such Closing Documents, including the Share Documents, shall be released to the Parties as provided above.

(iv) upon release of the documents and payments as contemplated by and in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(iii), Closing shall be deemed to have occurred at the Closing Time and legal title to and beneficial ownership of the Shares shall be deemed to have passed to Purchaser at the Closing Time and all right, title and interest in and to the Closing Consideration shall be deemed to have passed to Vendor at the Closing Time, and

PURCHASE PRICE

3.1 Purchase Price

The amount payable by Purchaser to Vendor for the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) shall be an amount equal to U.S.$1,665,800,000 (the “Base Price”), plus an amount equal to the Base Price multiplied by the Interest Rate multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Closing Date and the denominator of which is 365.

The Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as expressly provided herein.

3.2 Payment of Purchase Price and Interim Cash Flow Amount

(a) The Purchase Price shall be paid by Purchaser to Vendor as follows:

(i) on execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser shall pay to Vendor, or such other Person as Vendor directs in writing, U.S.$50,000,000 (the “Deposit”), provided however, that if this Agreement is executed on a day other than a Business Day or after-hours on a Business Day, Purchaser shall deliver the Deposit to Vendor, or such other Person as Vendor directs in writing, at the designated bank account before 12:00 noon (Calgary time) on the next Business Day, failing which Vendor may terminate this Agreement, and

(ii) subject to Section 2.1(b), at the Closing Time, Purchaser shall pay to Vendor, or such other Person as Vendor directs in writing, an amount (the “Closing Consideration”) equal to the Purchase Price minus the Deposit, together with all interest accrued on the Deposit net of any withholding tax applicable to such interest.

Subject to Section 2.1(b), at the Closing Time, the Deposit, together with all interest accrued thereon net of any applicable withholding tax applicable to such interest in accordance with Section 3.2(b), shall be retained by Vendor and applied towards payment of the Purchase Price.

(b) The Deposit shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate. Vendor will withhold and remit to the applicable Governmental Authority tax on such interest unless Purchaser provides appropriate documentation before the Closing Time that such withholding is not required.

(c) Each of the Parties agrees to the terms and conditions set forth in Schedule 3.2(d). Subject to compliance by Vendor with the terms and conditions set forth in Schedule 3.2(d), no amount of the Purchase Price, or any adjustments thereto, shall be subject to any withholding on account of Taxes or otherwise.

(d) At least five (5) Business Days before the Closing Date, Vendor shall deliver to Purchaser wire transfer instructions for the payment of the Closing Consideration.

(e) Vendor shall cause the Closing Interim Cash Flow Amount (if positive) to be paid to the Corporation by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Corporation not later than the Business Day immediately before the Closing Date.

Vendor shall be entitled to cause the Corporation to pay to Vendor, prior to the Closing Date, the Closing Interim Cash Flow Amount (if negative).

3.3 Post Closing Adjustment to the Working Capital Amount

(a) Schedule 3.3(a) contains a statement (the “Working Capital Statement”) setting forth the Working Capital Amount as determined by Vendor as at the Effective Time. Within thirty (30) Business Days of the date hereof, Vendor will deliver to Purchaser general ledger detail for each line item in the Working Capital Statement and provide Purchaser with such additional detail with respect thereto as reasonably requested by Purchaser within a reasonable period of time following the request, but in no event later than 10 Business Days following such request.

(b) If, after the date hereof, Purchaser disputes Vendor’s determination of the Working Capital Amount as set forth in the Working Capital Statement, Purchaser will so notify Vendor, in writing, within 90 days of the receipt of the general ledger detail described in Section 3.3(a) (the “Purchaser’s Objection”). The Purchaser’s Objection will set forth a specific description of the basis of the dispute and the adjustments to the Working Capital Statement that Purchaser believes should be made. If Purchaser does not

deliver a Purchaser’s Objection within that 90 day period, the Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to be conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(c) Vendor will have 60 days (the “Vendor’s Review Period”) from receipt of the Purchaser’s Objection to review the Purchaser’s Objection and respond to it in writing. If Vendor does not respond in writing to the Purchaser’s Objection within the Vendor’s Review Period, the Working Capital Statement shall be adjusted in accordance with the Purchaser’s Objection and shall be deemed to be conclusive and binding on the Parties. If Vendor does respond in writing within the Vendor’s Review Period, then the Parties will thereafter attempt in good faith to reach an agreement with respect to any matters in dispute. If Vendor and Purchaser reach such agreement, the Working Capital Statement shall be adjusted in accordance with such agreement and shall be deemed to be conclusive and binding on the Parties. If Vendor and Purchaser are unable to resolve the matters in dispute within fifteen (15) days following the end of the Vendor’s Review Period, either Vendor or Purchaser may notify the other in writing of their wish to have the matter finally resolved by Expert Determination pursuant to Section 3.5.

(d) In the event the Working Capital Amount set out in the Working Capital Statement as finally settled pursuant to this Section 3.3 or Section 3.5, as the case may be, is greater than U.S.$10,000,000, Purchaser shall pay to Vendor, and the Purchase Price shall be increased by, the amount by which the Working Capital Amount is greater than zero. In the event the Working Capital Amount set out in the Working Capital Statement as finally settled pursuant to this Section 3.3 or Section 3.5, as the case may be, is less than negative U.S.$10,000,000, Vendor shall pay to Purchaser, and the Purchase Price shall be decreased by, the amount by which the Working Capital Amount is less than zero. No payment shall be required to be made under this Section 3.3(d) unless Closing occurs.

(e) Any payment required pursuant to Section 3.3(d) shall be made within fifteen (15) Business Days following the final determination of the Working Capital Amount in accordance with this Section 3.3 or Section 3.5, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date of payment. No further adjustments shall be made to the Purchase Price with respect to the Working Capital Amount. Any such payment (excluding the part thereof that is interest) shall be treated by Vendor and Purchaser as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. Any interest paid by Purchaser shall be regarded as interest payable in consideration of the delayed payment of the Purchase Price at Closing.

(f) Vendor and Purchaser shall cooperate, and shall cause the Purchased Entities to cooperate, with each other, to facilitate the settlement of the Working Capital Statement in accordance with this Section 3.3 or Section 3.5. During the period of time from and after the date hereof through to the time the Working Capital Amount is finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.3 or Section 3.5, Vendor or Purchaser shall afford, and cause the Purchased Entities to afford, to the Accounting Firm, the Parties and the Parties’ Related Parties, in connection with the settlement of the Working Capital Statement as contemplated by this Section 3.3 or Section 3.5, reasonable access during normal business hours to all the Books and Records, properties, personnel and work papers in their possession relevant thereto.

(g) For greater certainty, no adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be subject to any of the thresholds, deductibles or caps set forth in Articles 6 or 10.

(h) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the final determination of the Working Capital Amount may not occur until after Closing and any dispute with respect to the Working Capital Statement shall not delay Closing.

3.4 Interim Cash Flow Adjustment

(a) Vendor shall prepare the Interim Period Financial Statements on a basis consistent with the Financial Statements and on a basis that fairly presents, in all material respects, the financial condition and results of operations for the Business as at the date thereof, and for the Interim Period. Vendor shall also prepare a draft statement (the “Interim Period Cash Flow Statement”) setting forth the calculation, for the purpose of Closing, of the Interim Cash Flow Amount in accordance with Schedule 1.1M (the “Closing Interim Cash Flow Amount”). Vendor shall deliver the draft Interim Period Financial Statements and a draft Interim Period Cash Flow Statement to Purchaser not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. The draft Interim Period Financial Statements and the draft Interim Period Cash Flow Statement shall, to the extent necessary, use estimates made in good faith by Vendor. Vendor shall deliver final Interim Period Financial Statements and a final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement not later than the later of: (i) sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, and (ii) fourteen (14) days after the Working Capital Statement is finally settled pursuant to Section 3.3 or Section 3.5. Purchaser shall provide, and shall cause the Purchased Entities to provide, all such access to books and records and personnel as Vendor reasonably requires to prepare the final Interim Period Financial Statements and a final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement.

(b) If Purchaser disputes Vendor’s determination of the Interim Cash Flow Amount as set forth in the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement, Purchaser will so notify Vendor, in writing, within 180 days from the date on which Vendor delivers to Purchaser the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement (the “Purchaser’s ICF Objection”). The Purchaser’s ICF Objection shall set forth a specific description of the basis of the dispute and the adjustments to the Interim Period Cash Flow Statement that Purchaser believes should be made. If Purchaser does not deliver a Purchaser’s ICF Objection within that 180 day period, the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement shall be deemed to be conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(c) Vendor will have 90 days (“Vendor’s ICF Review Period”) from receipt of the Purchaser’s ICF Objection to review the Purchaser’s ICF Objection and respond to it in writing. If Vendor does not respond in writing to the Purchaser’s ICF Objection within the Vendor’s ICF Review Period, the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement shall be adjusted in accordance with the Purchaser’s ICF Objection and shall be deemed to be conclusive and binding on the Parties. If Vendor does respond in writing within the Vendor’s ICF Period, then the Parties will thereafter attempt in good faith to reach an agreement with respect to any matters in dispute. If Vendor and Purchaser reach such agreement, the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement shall be adjusted in accordance with such agreement and shall be deemed to be conclusive and binding on the Parties. If Vendor and Purchaser are unable to resolve the matters in dispute within fifteen (15) days

following the end of the Vendor’s ICF Period, either Vendor or Purchaser may notify the other in writing of their wish to have the matter finally resolved by Expert Determination pursuant to Section 3.5.

(d) In the event the Interim Cash Flow Amount set out in the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement as finally settled pursuant to this Section 3.4 or Section 3.5 (the “Final Interim Cash Flow Amount”) is greater than the Closing Interim Cash Flow Amount, Vendor shall cause to be paid to the Corporation the amount by which the Final Interim Cash Flow Amount is greater than the Closing Interim Cash Flow Amount. In the event the Final Interim Cash Flow Amount is less than the Closing Interim Cash Flow Amount, Purchaser shall pay Vendor, or cause the Corporation to pay to Vendor, the amount by which the Final Interim Cash Flow Amount is less than the Closing Interim Cash Flow Amount.

(e) Any payment required pursuant to Section 3.4(d) shall be made within fifteen (15) Business Days following the final determination of the Interim Period Cash Flow Amount in accordance with this Section 3.4 or Section 3.5, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date of payment. Any such payment (excluding the part thereof that is interest) shall be treated by Vendor and Purchaser as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. No further adjustments shall be made to the Purchase Price with respect to the Interim Period Cash Flow Amount. Any interest paid by Purchaser shall be regarded as interest payable in consideration of the delayed payment of the Purchase Price at Closing.

(f) Vendor and Purchaser shall cooperate, and Purchaser shall cause the Purchased Entities to cooperate, with each other, to facilitate the settlement of the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement in accordance with this Section 3.4 or Section 3.5. During the period of time from and after the Closing Date through to the time the Interim Period Cash Flow Amount is finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.4 or Section 3.5, Vendor and Purchaser shall afford, and Purchaser shall cause the Purchased Entities to afford, to the Accounting Firm, the Parties and the Parties’ Related Parties, in connection with the settlement of the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement as contemplated by this Section 3.4 or Section 3.5, reasonable access during normal business hours to all of the Books and Records, properties, personnel and work papers relevant thereto.

(g) For greater certainty, no adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be subject to any of the thresholds, deductibles or caps set forth in Articles 6 or 10.

3.5 Expert Determination

(a) If Vendor and Purchaser are unable to resolve matters in dispute as contemplated in Section 3.3(c) or 3.4(c) within 15 days following the end of the Vendor’s Review Period or Vendor’s ICF Review Period, as the case may be, either Vendor or Purchaser may notify the other in writing that the dispute shall be referred for resolution by the Accounting Firm in which case the Accounting Firm shall determine, only with respect to the remaining differences so submitted, whether and to what extent, if any, the Working Capital Statement or the final Interim Period Cash Flow Statement, as the case

may be, requires adjustment. Notwithstanding Section 9.20, which shall not apply to this Section 3.5, any dispute arising pursuant to Section 3.3(c) or 3.4(c) referred to the Accounting Firm in accordance with this Section 3.5 shall be resolved in accordance with the following:

(i) The Accounting Firm shall act as an expert (and not as an arbitrator) in making its determination (the “Expert Determination”). Any applicable law relating to arbitration shall not apply to the Accounting Firm or to the Expert Determination or the procedure by which the Expert Determination is reached. For the avoidance of doubt, the Expert Determination shall not be referable to arbitration pursuant to Section 9.20.

(ii) Within 5 Business Days of receiving the Accounting Firm’s written confirmation and acknowledgement of its appointment to act as expert in the Expert Determination, Vendor and Purchaser shall each prepare and deliver to the Accounting Firm: (A) a written statement (such statement not to exceed 10 pages) addressing the matters in dispute; and (B) any relevant supporting documents. Vendor and Purchaser shall at the same time deliver to the respective other Party copies of its materials provided to the Accounting Firm.

(iii) The Accounting Firm shall be entitled to make a determination and issue its decision based only on the written statements and supporting documents received from Vendor and Purchaser.

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no unilateral communications between either Vendor or Purchaser and the Accounting Firm at any time during the Expert Determination.

(v) The Accounting Firm may obtain independent professional, legal and/or technical advice as it considers is reasonably required and it advises Vendor and Purchaser of its intention in advance of obtaining such assistance.

(vi) Vendor and Purchaser shall request that the Accounting Firm make its determination within twenty (20) Business Days after the Accounting Firm has delivered to Vendor and Purchaser the Accounting Firm’s written confirmation and acknowledgement of its appointment to act as expert in the Expert Determination. Such determination shall be made in writing and shall include reasonable details regarding the reasons for the Accounting Firm’s determination.

(vii) In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm must not assign a value to that item greater than the greatest value for that item claimed by either Vendor or Purchaser or less than the smallest value for that item claimed by either Vendor or Purchaser. The Accounting Firm shall not have the jurisdiction to award any form of damages or costs or to award specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable relief, nor will the Accounting Firm have the authority to modify or amend, in any respect, the provisions of this Agreement or any related agreements.

(viii) Vendor and Purchaser agree that subject to Subsections 3.5(a)(ix) and 3.5(a)(x) below, any Expert Determination decision of the Accounting Firm made in accordance with this Section 3.5 shall be deemed to be agreed to and to be conclusive, final and binding on Vendor and Purchaser and may, where permitted and following the expiry of the ten (10) day period referred to in Section 3.5(a)(x), be filed in any court of competent jurisdiction and enforced by Vendor or Purchaser as a final judgment of such court.

(ix) Vendor or Purchaser may only challenge the Expert Determination decision of the Accounting Firm (A) for manifest error or fraud on the part of the Accounting Firm; (B) for failure by the Accounting Firm to disclose any relevant interest or duty which materially conflicts with its function as expert and/or which may prejudice the Expert Determination; or (C) by reason of the Accounting Firm having, in the Expert Determination, decided on any matter that is not, by the terms of this Section 3.5, expressly within the jurisdiction of the Accounting Firm. Notwithstanding Section 9.20 of this Agreement, any challenge permitted to be made in respect of an Expert Determination decision of the Accounting Firm shall be made in the court of competent jurisdiction sitting in Calgary, Alberta.

(a) Vendor acknowledges to and agrees with Purchaser that the Entity Assets together with certain Excluded Assets comprise substantially all of the assets, tangibles, contracts, intangibles, properties, rights and interests used to generate the cash flows reflected in

the Financial Statements. If within eighteen (18) months of Closing, Purchaser notifies Vendor in writing that it believes one or more of the assets, tangibles, contracts, intangibles, properties, rights and interests used to generate any portion of the cash flows reflected in the Financial Statements was not owned by a Purchased Entity at Closing (“Non-Transferred Entity Asset”), the following provisions shall apply:

(i) if such Non-Transferred Entity Asset can be transferred or conveyed to the Corporation or applicable Purchased Entity with minimal cost or burden to Vendor, Vendor will cause such Non-Transferred Entity Asset to be so transferred or conveyed; and

(ii) if Section 6.10(a)(i) is not applicable and the Loss to Purchaser or the Purchased Entities of not owning or being in possession of such Non-Transferred Entity Asset at Closing is or is reasonably expected to be U.S.$1,000,000 or more,

Vendor will use all commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver, or to cause to be executed and delivered, to the Purchased Entities such instruments of conveyance and take such other actions as Purchaser may reasonably request to convey title to and ownership of, and to put Purchaser or the Purchased Entities in possession of, such Non-Transferred Entity Asset.

(b) If Vendor is unable, after all commercially reasonable efforts, to convey title to and ownership of, and to put Purchaser or the Purchased Entities in possession of, any Non-Transferred Entity Asset described in Section 6.10(a)(ii) above, then Vendor and Purchaser will attempt to agree on a reasonable amount of compensation due Purchaser, subject to the limitations in Article 6, as a result of the fact that the Non-Transferred Asset was not owned by a Purchased Entity at Closing, taking into account, without limitation, the loss of net benefit to the Purchased Entities. If the Parties are unable to agree on the foregoing matters of compensation, then the matter shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with Section 9.20. Any compensation paid to Purchaser pursuant to this Section shall be an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(c) If Vendor is able to convey title to and ownership of, and to put Purchaser or the Purchased Entities in possession of, such Non-Transferred Entity Asset, then Vendor and Purchaser will attempt to agree on a reasonable amount of compensation due Purchaser, subject to the limitations in Article 6, as a result of the fact that the Non-Transferred Asset was not owned by a Purchased Entity at Closing, taking into account, without limitation, the loss of net benefit to the Purchased Entities. If the Parties are unable to agree on the foregoing matters of compensation, then the matter shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with Section 9.20. Any compensation payable as a result of this provision will be treated as a Purchase Price adjustment.

(d) Except as provided in Section 6.10(f) below, nothing in this Section 6.10 shall, however, have the effect of providing Purchaser with any additional right or remedy with respect to any defect in title to any Entity Asset consisting of real property interests described in Schedule 4.11 and Purchaser’s rights with respect to any such defect in title shall be limited to such rights as Purchaser may have for breach of the representation and warranty of Vendor in Section 4.11.

(e) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the following shall not form part of the Entity Assets and shall not be subject to the covenant in Section 6.10(a): Commodity Sales & Marketing Services currently provided by Purchased Entities’ Integrated Supply & Trading Division; All rail logistics & support services provided to the Business by any Affiliate of the Purchased Entities; All technical, engineering and other support services or arrangements provided to the Business by any Affiliate of the Purchased Entities relating to wells; All pipeline services or arrangements provided to the Business by any Affiliate of the Purchased Entities, including but not limited to regulatory compliance guidance, regulatory filings and aviation patrols; All engineering services arrangements provided to the Business by any Affiliate of the Purchased Entities, including but not limited to the technical expertise provided from time-to-time for project management, decision-making and technical standards support.

(f) With respect to the matters described on Schedule 6.10(f), Vendor shall: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to cure or resolve such matters; and (b) with respect to any such matters that have been or are hereafter cured or resolved, provide evidence of such cure or resolution to Purchaser. The Purchaser will not do or omit to do anything that would have the effect of preventing or frustrating the Vendor from curing or resolving any matter described in Schedule 6.10(f). With respect to any such matters that Vendor is unable to cure or resolve by the first anniversary of the Closing Date or such other date as Vendor and Purchaser may agree upon with respect any of the matters described in Schedule 6.10(f) (herein referred to as an “Uncured Matter”), Vendor and Purchaser agree as follows:

(i) Vendor and Purchaser will attempt to agree on the amount of the Loss suffered since the Closing Date by Purchaser or the Purchased Entities attributable to such Uncured Matter, which Loss shall be determined taking into account all factors that are relevant to the financial losses and diminution in value suffered by the applicable Purchased Entity as a result of such Uncured Matter, including the extent, if any, to which such Uncured Matter (A) has or will negatively impact the cash flows from the facility to which the applicable property relates, (B) prevents the applicable Purchased Entity from using and enjoying the applicable real property in the same fashion that it has been used and enjoyed in connection with the normal operation of the Business prior to the date hereof, (C) constitutes a matter that would be viewed by a reasonable and prudent operator of a similar business in the applicable geographic area as a matter that impacts the value of the applicable property and (D) adversely impacts the resale value of the affected property;

(ii) If the amount of such Loss is U.S. $1,000,000 or more, such Uncured Matter shall be treated as a Material Claim hereunder and as a Material Claim described in Section 6.3(e)(ii) for the purpose of Section 6.3 (except that the limitation set forth in Section 6.2 shall not apply to any such Material Claims) and Vendor and Purchaser will attempt to agree on a reasonable amount of compensation due Purchaser as a result of such Uncured Matter and the Loss associated therewith;

(iii) If Vendor and Purchaser are unable to agree upon the amount of Loss of an Uncured Matter or the amount of compensation due Purchaser or the applicable Purchased Entity in connection therewith, the matter shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with Section 9.20;

(iv) Any amounts paid to Purchaser pursuant to this Section shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price; and

(v) This Section 6.10(f) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Purchaser with respect to the matters set forth in Schedule 6.10(f) and the Purchaser shall have no rights or remedies for breach of the representation and warranty in Section 4.11 with respect to the matters described in Schedule 6.10(f). Purchaser acknowledges that nothing in this Section shall obligate Vendor to cure any matters constituting Permitted Encumbrances.

Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(a) a Purchaser Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to make a Claim against Vendor under this Article 10 in respect of a breach of any covenant or any inaccuracy or incorrectness of any representation or warranty (a “default”) unless and until:

(i) Purchaser shall have provided Vendor written notice of the default, and

made on it, and in any event within 10 days after it receives notice of any such Claim, to the Indemnifying Party stating the nature and basis for that Claim and the nature and basis of the Claim by Purchaser or Vendor, as the case may be, for indemnification hereunder. A failure to give that notice within that period shall not preclude the Indemnified Party from obtaining such indemnification but its right to indemnification shall be reduced to the extent that any such delay materially prejudiced the defence of the Claim or materially increased the amount of liability, whether determined through adjudication or settlement, or cost of defence.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, by notice to the Indemnified Party given not later than 15 days after its receipt of the notice described in Section 10.7(a), to assume the control of the defence, compromise and settlement of that Claim so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defence of the Claim in good faith, and (ii) such assumption shall, by its terms, be without material cost to the Indemnified Party, provided however, if the Claim involves the seeking of an injunction or other similar equitable non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control the defence of that part of the Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the control of the defence, compromise and settlement of such Claim, as against the Indemnified Party, it will be conclusively established for the purposes of this Agreement that those Claims are within the scope of the indemnification set out in this Article 10 and the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all reasonable legal fees and expenses on a solicitor and its own client basis in connection therewith incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to that assumption by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall thereafter keep each Indemnified Party reasonably informed with respect to the status of that Claim. If the Indemnified Party is required to respond to, or take any action in respect of, a Claim prior to the Indemnifying Party electing to assume control of the defence of such Claim, such response or action shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s right to assume control of the defence of such Claim. If the Indemnifying party assumes control of the defence of such Claim, the response or action of the Indemnified Party shall be deemed ratified by the Indemnifying Party provided such response or action was taken in good faith consistent with the interests of the Indemnifying Party.

(c) On the assumption of control of any Claim by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 10.7(b), the Indemnifying Party shall diligently proceed with the defence, compromise or settlement of that Claim at its sole risk, cost and expense and, in connection therewith, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully, but at the expense of the Indemnifying Party with respect to any out-of-pocket expenses incurred, to make available to the Indemnifying Party all pertinent information and witnesses under the Indemnified Party’s control and take such other steps as in the opinion of counsel for the Indemnifying Party are reasonably necessary to enable the Indemnifying Party to conduct that defence. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle that Claim unless that settlement includes, as a term thereof: (i) the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff of a full and complete release of the Indemnified Party from any and all liability with respect to that Claim; and (ii) other than with respect to the Non-NGL Business related litigation Claims or litigation Claims identified as Non-NGL in Schedule 1.1H, if Purchaser or the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are the Indemnified Party and any terms of the proposed settlement will significantly impact the Business following Closing, the consent of

Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. As long as the Indemnifying Party is contesting any such Claim in good faith and on a timely basis, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle any such Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. If the defendants in any such Claim shall include both an Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party has a conflict of interest or that, because of the availability of different or additional defences to that Indemnified Party, the interests of the Indemnified Party are best served by having separate defence counsel, that Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defence of that Claim on its behalf at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (to the extent only that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel are reasonably allocable to that part of the Claim for which the Indemnifying Party is liable hereunder), but only to the extent such Claim gives rise to indemnification hereunder, and provided further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the expenses of more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an Indemnifying Party may not, without the consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion) agree to any kind of non-monetary relief which would burden the Indemnified Party or its assets.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party shall fail to notify the Indemnified Party of its desire to assume control of the defence, compromise or settlement of any Claim within the period of time prescribed above in Section 10.7(b), or shall notify the Indemnified Party that it will not assume control of the defence, compromise or settlement of any such Claim, then the Indemnified Party may assume the control of the defence, compromise and settlement of any such Claim, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, in which event it may do so in such manner as it may deem appropriate and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any determination made in that Claim or any settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Party, provided that any such determination or settlement shall not affect the right of the Indemnifying Party to otherwise dispute the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. The Indemnifying Party shall be permitted to join in the defence of that Claim and to employ counsel at its own expense.

(e) The final determination of any Claim governed by this Section 10.7 will be binding and conclusive on the Parties as to the validity or invalidity, as the case may be, of that Claim.

(f) Amounts payable by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in respect of any Claims for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 10.7 shall be payable by the Indemnifying Party as incurred by the Indemnified Party.

(g) This Section 10.7 shall not apply to Tax Claims.

10.8 Holding of Indemnities

Vendor and Purchaser shall hold the indemnities contained in this Article 10 in trust for the benefit and on behalf of Vendor Indemnified Parties or Purchaser Indemnified Parties, respectively, and may enforce those indemnities on their behalf.

10.9 Claims Net of Insurance

The amount of any and all Claims, Liabilities and Losses under this Article 10 and elsewhere under this Agreement shall be determined net of any amounts recovered at any time pursuant to valid claims by the Indemnified Party (such amounts to be reduced by any Tax payable by the Indemnified Party in respect of such amounts) under insurance policies, other indemnities and other reimbursement arrangements (other than self insurance) with respect to those Claims, Liabilities and Losses, which claims and recoveries the Indemnified Party shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to fully pursue and collect. Provided that the Indemnifying Party has satisfied its indemnification obligations under Article 10, each Indemnified Party hereby waives, or will use reasonable commercial efforts to procure the waiver of, any subrogation rights that its insurer or such other Person may have against the Indemnifying Party and any of the Indemnifying Party’s Related Parties with respect to any indemnifiable Claims, Liabilities and Losses in respect of which the Indemnifying Party has fulfilled its indemnity obligations hereunder.

10.10 Mitigation

Each Indemnified Party shall take all reasonable steps and use all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any and all Claims, Liabilities and Losses. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Vendor has agreed to indemnify a Purchaser Indemnified Party hereunder for any Claim, Liability or Loss and such Claim, Liability or Loss can be mitigated by the execution and delivery of any instrument in writing or other document or the filing thereof with any Governmental Authority or other Person, Purchaser will, and will cause the Purchased Entities and other Purchaser Indemnified Parties to, as applicable, execute and deliver any such instrument or document or file such instrument or document with any such Governmental Authority or other Person, in each such case, as directed by Vendor in writing. Vendor agrees to indemnify Purchaser for all Liability incurred by Purchaser or the Purchased Entities in connection therewith.

10.11 Adjustment to Purchase Price

Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

10.12 Subrogation

Each Indemnified Party shall assign to the Indemnifying Party and subrogate the Indemnifying Party to all its rights and remedies against any Person (other than, with respect to rights and remedies of Vendor and Purchaser, any such rights and remedies against its Related Parties, and, in respect of any other Indemnified Party, any rights and remedies against its Affiliates) in respect of any payment made by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement. Each Indemnified Party shall provide all reasonable cooperation and assistance required by the Indemnifying Party in making and prosecuting any Claim for recovery against that Person to the extent that payment is made by the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnified Party shall knowingly take any action to impair any such right or remedy of the Indemnifying Party to recover any such payment.

10.13 Access and Co-operation in Respect of Vendor Indemnified Matters

(a) Purchaser agrees, and agrees to cause Purchaser’s Affiliates, including the Purchased Entities, to provide Vendor and its Affiliates with reasonable access after Closing to the Purchased Entities, the Books and Records, the Entity Assets and personnel for purposes of addressing Claims for which indemnity is provided hereunder by Vendor, including Vendor Indemnified Matters, and Tax, accounting, regulatory and other matters arising out of Vendor’s prior direct and indirect ownership of the Purchased Entities.

(b) Purchaser further agrees, and agrees to cause Purchaser’s Affiliates, including the Purchased Entities, to allow Vendor and its Affiliates and its and their representatives to have access to personnel of Purchaser and Purchaser’s Affiliates, including the Purchased Entities, familiar with matters relating to Vendor Indemnified Matters to assist in the defence or prosecution of Claims related to such Vendor Indemnified Matters and in connection with Tax, accounting, regulatory and other matters arising out of Vendor’s prior direct and indirect ownership of the Purchased Entities. Vendor shall reimburse Purchaser for Purchaser’s out of pocket expenses in connection therewith.

(c) At Vendor’s reasonable request, and provided Vendor has acknowledged its indemnification obligation with respect to the relevant Vendor Indemnified Matter, Purchaser shall deliver to Vendor or its designee one or more irrevocable powers of attorney from Purchaser or Purchaser’s Affiliates, including the Purchased Entities, authorizing Vendor or its designee to take such actions and execute and deliver such documents for and on behalf of Purchaser and its Affiliates, including the Purchased Entities, as Vendor reasonably requires in connection with the prosecution or defence of any Vendor Indemnified Matters including the filing of claims and the conduct of all legal proceedings relating thereto. The intent and purpose of this Section 10.13(c) is to provide Vendor with all reasonable power and authority to limit or otherwise manage its Liability in connection with any Vendor Indemnified Matter provided Purchaser is held harmless in respect thereof.

(d) In respect of all Vendor Indemnified Litigation Vendor or its Affiliates shall have the exclusive right to control the defence, compromise and settlement of such litigation and the settlement or compromise of any Claim in connection therewith, provided that, other than with respect to the Non-NGL Business related litigation Claims or litigation Claims identified as Non-NGL in Schedule 1.1H, if Purchaser or the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are the Indemnified Party and any terms of the proposed settlement will significantly impact the Business following Closing, Vendor shall obtain the consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Litigation Support Agreement shall apply to the Vendor Indemnified Litigation.

10.14 Assignment of Benefits under Indemnified Litigation Claims

In connection with any Indemnified Litigation Claim, Vendor shall be entitled to any and all proceeds and benefits arising in connection with or under the litigation related to such Claim, including the proceeds of any counterclaim, third party or other claim over or any award of costs, and Purchaser shall, and shall cause each of Purchaser Indemnified Parties, including the

Purchased Entities, as necessary, to, execute and deliver all such documents, including documents of assignment, as may be reasonably requested by Vendor to give full effect to this Section 10.14.

10.15 Litigation Support Agreement

At Closing, each of Vendor and Purchaser shall enter into the Litigation Support Agreement.

10.16 No Waiver of Indemnification Rights

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Closing occurs, Closing shall not be considered or deemed to be a waiver by either Party of its rights to indemnification for a breach of this Agreement by the other Party.

ARTICLE 11
TAX MATTERS

11.1 Liabilities for Taxes

(a) After Closing, and subject to the terms of this Article 11, Vendor shall be liable for, shall pay and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser and the Purchased Entities from and against:

(i) all income Taxes or amounts related to income Taxes payable by a Purchased Entity, in excess of amounts paid by the Purchased Entity prior to Closing or Vendor or any of its Affiliates (other than a Purchased Entity) at any time on account of such Taxes, for taxation years of the Purchased Entity ending before the Closing Date, or, for a taxation year that does not end before the Closing Date, all such income Taxes attributable to the period before the Closing Date, for greater certainty, including income taxes payable by a Purchased Entity for taxation years ending before Closing Date that are attributable to or arise directly or indirectly therefrom from the Permitted Pre Closing Actions,

(ii) all other Taxes (and for greater certainty, excluding amounts that are, or relate to, income Taxes) payable by a Purchased Entity, in excess of amounts paid by the Purchased Entity prior to Closing or Vendor or any of its Affiliates (other than a Purchased Entity) at any time on account of such Taxes, attributable to periods ending before the Closing Date (whether or not such periods coincide with the end of a taxation year), but excluding all other Taxes in respect of the Business and the Entity Assets after the Effective Time, and excluding Taxes that have been included in the computation of the Working Capital Amount, and

(iii) all Taxes of Vendor and any Affiliate thereof (other than the Purchased Entities) for any taxation year or period,

in all such cases:

(iv) to the extent that such Taxes are not attributable to actions or omissions by, or at the direction of, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, provided that for greater

certainty, Taxes that are attributable to or arise because of a reasonable position taken by a Purchased Entity in a Tax return filed in respect of any Taxation year or period that ends after the Closing Date will not, in and of itself, be considered to be attributable to the actions or omissions of, or at the direction of, of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

(b) After Closing, and subject to the terms of this Article 11, Purchaser shall be liable for, shall pay and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Vendor and its Affiliates from and against all Taxes payable by the Purchased Entities for taxation years or periods other than those referred to in Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii).

(c) Vendor shall be liable for, shall pay and shall indemnify, defend and save harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates from and against all stock transfer, sales, use, documentary, stamp and other similar Taxes (“Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with the sale and transfer of the Shares to Purchaser. Purchaser shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes, and Vendor shall cooperate with Purchaser with respect thereto and, if required by Law, execute Tax Returns related thereto.

(d) If there is any change on or after the Closing Date to an item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit that results in an increase in any Tax in respect of which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii), and that change results in a Tax Benefit to Purchaser or any of the Purchased Entities in one or more taxation years or periods in respect of which Purchaser has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(b), Vendor’s liability pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii) shall be reduced to the extent of such Tax Benefit.

“Tax Benefit” means the net present value, calculated by discounting at an interest rate of 3%, the sums of the Tax Rate multiplied by each amount that becomes deductible in computing taxable income of a Purchased Entity (each such sum being a “Tax Savings Amount”) or successors thereto in taxation years or periods in respect of which Purchaser has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(b) (a “Timing Difference”) where such deductible amounts arise because of a change to an item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit that results in an increase in Tax in respect of which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i); and “Tax Rate” means, in respect of the Canadian Purchased Entities and successors thereto, the Canadian federal corporate rate of Tax on income plus the arithmetic mean of the applicable corporate income Tax rates for the provinces of Alberta and Ontario, for any relevant period of time, and for all other entities, zero.

In determining the amount of any Tax Savings Amounts under this Section 11.1(d), deductible amounts in computing taxable income shall be calculated on the basis that the Purchased Entity is able to deduct amounts arising from the Timing Difference at the earliest time permissible under the Tax Act and realizes a reduction of tax or obtains a refund at that time.

11.2 Tax Returns

(a) Vendor shall cause to be prepared and filed on a timely basis all Tax Returns (if any) for the Purchased Entities for taxation years which end before the Closing Date. Vendor shall be entitled, in preparing such Tax Returns, to claim the maximum allowable amount in respect of discretionary deductions. Vendor and Purchaser agree that an election pursuant to Subsection 256(9) of the Tax Act shall not be made with respect to the Purchase.

(b) Purchaser shall be responsible for filing all Tax Returns for the Purchased Entities for taxation years or periods which end on or after the Closing Date.

(c) After Closing, Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Purchased Entities to cooperate fully with Vendor and Vendor’s Affiliates and make available to Vendor and Vendor’s Affiliates in a timely fashion such data and other information as may reasonably be required for the preparation of any of the Tax Returns referred to in Section 11.2(a) and shall preserve that data and other information until the expiration of any applicable limitation period under any Applicable Laws with respect to Taxes.

(d) Purchaser shall not, and shall not allow any of its Affiliates including the Purchased Entities to, amend, refile or otherwise modify or grant an extension of any statute of limitations with respect to any Tax Return or election for any of the Purchased Entities for any taxation years or periods referred to in Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii) and shall not request, and shall not allow any of the Purchased Entities to request, an audit or assessment of any such Tax Return or election, in either case, without prior written consent of Vendor, which consent may be arbitrarily withheld.

(e) After Closing Vendor shall make available to Purchaser, on a timely basis, all information relating to potential Tax liabilities of the Purchased Entities that Purchaser requires to meet its financial reporting obligations for its audited financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

11.3 Remittance of Tax

(a) Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor shall pay and remit, within the statutory limitation periods applicable to the payment of Taxes, to the appropriate Tax Authority:

(i) the full amount of all Taxes owed to the applicable Tax authority as a result of any assessment or reassessment in respect of any taxation year or period in respect of which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii), and

(ii) any Taxes due in respect of the Tax Returns referred to in Section 11.2(a),

whether or not the full amount is required to be paid and whether or not Vendor intends to contest the amount of such Taxes, any such payment or remittance being an adjustment to the Purchase Price hereunder.

100

(b) Purchaser and its Affiliates including the Purchased Entities shall not request that any Tax authority apply any amount of Tax paid by a Purchased Entity prior to the Closing Date, or by Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor on or after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 11.3(a), to any Tax year or period for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to Section 11.2(b) without written consent from Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor, which consent may be arbitrarily withheld. Where any Tax authority applies an amount of Tax paid by a Purchased Entity prior to the Closing Date or by Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 11.3(a) to a Tax year or period for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to Section 11.2(b), such amount shall be paid to Vendor pursuant to the terms of Section 11.4.

11.4 Tax Refunds

(a) Vendor shall be entitled to any refund of (or credit for) Taxes and all related interest (less income Tax on that interest at a rate of 26% where the recipient is resident in Canada and 37% where the recipient is resident in the U.S. but only to the extent that such interest is taxable ) for any taxation year or period in respect of which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii), whether as a result of an assessment, reassessment or otherwise. Purchaser shall promptly provide Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor designated in writing by Vendor all notices of assessment or reassessment relating to the Purchased Entities in respect of any taxation years or periods referred to in Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii).

(b) If Taxes in respect of any taxation year or period in respect of which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii) are less than the amount, in respect thereof remitted to a Tax authority by the Purchased Entities prior to the Closing Date or by Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor on or after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 11.3(a), Purchaser shall pay or cause the Purchased Entities to pay the difference plus all related interest (less income Tax on that interest at a rate of 26% where the recipient is resident in Canada and 37% where the recipient is resident in the U.S. but only to the extent that such interest is taxable) to Vendor or an Affiliate of the Vendor designated in writing by the Vendor.

(d) Payments required to be made under Section 11.4(b) shall be paid to Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor designated in writing by Vendor within 15 days of receipt by Purchaser or the applicable Purchased Entity of the refund of the Taxes or the application of the refund by the applicable Tax authority to a taxation year for which Purchaser has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(b).

11.5 Confidentiality of Tax Information

Unless otherwise required by Applicable Laws, Environmental Laws or Governmental Authorities, each Party shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, keep confidential any non-public Tax information, records, and documents disclosed by the other Party, or to which that first mentioned Party has received or been granted access pursuant to this Article 11 and shall

101

not use that Tax information for any purpose other than making the determinations and taking such other actions contemplated by this Article 11.

11.6 No Section 338 Election

Purchaser shall not make, or cause or allow to be made, an election under section 338(g) of the Code with respect to the Purchase of the Shares or the deemed purchase of the shares of any eligible subsidiary.

11.7 Tax Claims

(a) Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing on receipt by that first mentioned Party or any of its respective Affiliates (including in respect of Purchaser, any of the Purchased Entities) or its or their Representatives of any notice or communication of any pending or threatened federal, provincial, state, local or foreign Tax audits, examinations, claims, assessments, appeals or other proceedings (a “Tax Claim”) relating to Taxes of any of the Purchased Entities in respect of which that first mentioned Party is entitled to seek, is seeking or intends to seek, indemnification from that other Party pursuant to Section 11.1.

(b) After Closing, Vendor or its Affiliates shall be entitled to assume control of any Tax Claim, and to exclusively represent the interests of the Purchased Entities in and with respect to any Tax Claim, relating to taxation years or periods ending before the Closing Date or relating to Taxes in respect of which Vendor or its Affiliates have an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii), and Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor may employ counsel of its own choice, at its own expense, for that purpose so long as Vendor or its Affiliates provide Purchaser with a notice to such effect within thirty (30) days of being notified of such Tax Claim pursuant to Section 11.7(a). Vendor shall be liable for all professional fees and expenses incurred in respect of each such Tax Claim.

If Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor assumes control of a Tax Claim, Vendor or that Affiliate of Vendor shall keep Purchaser reasonably apprised with respect to the status of such Tax Claim.

From and after the Closing, neither Purchaser nor a Purchased Entity nor any of their Affiliates or Representatives shall settle or compromise, or agree to settle or compromise, any Tax Claim which may be the subject of indemnification by Vendor under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii).

(c) After Closing, Vendor shall, in its sole discretion, be permitted to assume control or have an Affiliate of Vendor assume control, on behalf of the applicable Purchased Entity, of any and all objections and appeals identified in Schedule 4.25(d), and any and all other objections, appeals or other matters and proceedings that relate to or in respect of a taxation year or period of any of the Purchased Entities in respect of which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii), including the filing of objections and appeals on behalf of the applicable Purchased Entity. For clarity, all refunds or credits received by a Purchased Entity as a result of a successful objection or appeal (including as a result of litigation relating thereto) shall be for the account of Vendor in accordance with Section 11.4.

102

(d) If the settlement of any Tax Claim in respect of which Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor has assumed control, might reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect Purchaser or the Purchased Entities in respect of any taxation year ending on or after the Closing Date, then Vendor or its Affiliate shall only settle such Tax Claim with the consent of Purchaser, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(e) Purchaser or a Purchased Entity shall have the right to control any Tax Claim relating to the Purchased Entities relating to taxation years or periods ending at or before the Closing Date if Vendor does not assume control of such Tax Claim in accordance with Section 11.7(b) and pay all Taxes that are the subject of the Tax Claim. If Vendor does not pay the Taxes assessed, Vendor shall be liable for and shall reimburse Purchaser for all professional fees and reasonable expenses incurred by Purchaser or any of the Purchased Entities in connection with such Tax Claim.

(f) With respect to any Tax Claim in respect of which the applicable Tax authority asserts that an amount is payable in respect of which, or in respect of part of which, Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii) and which Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor pays, on or before the date such Tax Claim is required to be paid to the applicable Tax authority, the amount thereof in respect of which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under Section 11.1(a)(i) or (ii), all costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser in contesting such Tax Claim, and all interest payable or receivable, in respect of the period after the date of payment shall be entirely for the account of Purchaser.

11.8 Assistance and Cooperation

(a) After Closing, Vendor and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to):

(i) cooperate in a timely manner in preparing for any audits of, or disputes with Tax authorities regarding, any Tax Returns of any of the Purchased Entities,

(ii) provide timely notice to the other in writing of any pending or threatened Tax audits or assessments of any of the Purchased Entities for taxation years or other periods in respect of which the other may have an indemnification obligation under this Article 11,

(iii) within 30 days of the receipt of a written request therefor, furnish the other with copies of all correspondence received from any Tax authority in connection with any Tax audit or information request with respect to any taxation years or other periods in respect of which the other may have an indemnification obligation under this Article 11,

(iv) Purchaser will, after Purchaser has been afforded a reasonable opportunity to review such documents, grant a limited power of attorney to an individual designated by Vendor who will timely sign and deliver such certificates or forms as may be necessary or appropriate to establish an exemption from (or otherwise reduce), or file Tax Returns or other reports with respect to, Taxes described in Section 11.1, and

103

(v) use reasonable efforts to properly retain and maintain accounting and Tax records and information, consistent with Tax authority guidelines, to the extent such records and information relate to any of the Purchased Entities or any of the Entity Assets or other properties of the Business carried on by the Purchased Entities until the expiration of the applicable period outlined in Section 6.4(a)(i) to Section 6.4(a)(iv), as applicable, and promptly notify the other Party prior to destruction of any such records or information and provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to make and retain copies of any such records or information, provided however, nothing herein shall require Vendor or any of its Affiliates to deliver Tax Records or other Excluded Books and Records to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Purchased Entities).

(b) Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Purchased Entities to, grant to Vendor or its Affiliates access at all reasonable times to all Books and Records delivered to Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.15 and all other records, information and documents (including without limitation work papers and correspondence with Tax authorities) relating to any of the Purchased Entities, the Entity Assets or the other properties of the Business carried on by the Purchased Entities, and shall afford Vendor (or its designees) the right (at Vendor’s expense) to take extracts therefrom and to make copies thereof, and to make same available to relevant Tax authorities, to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Vendor (or its designees) to prepare the Tax Returns of Vendor or any of its Affiliates or the Tax Returns of the Purchased Entities for which Vendor is responsible, to conduct negotiations with Tax authorities and to investigate, prosecute or defend any Claims, including Tax Claims and including Claims arising between the Parties under Article 9.

(c) Vendor shall grant to Purchaser access at all reasonable times to all Tax Records, (including without limitation work papers and correspondence with Tax authorities) relating to any of the Purchased Entities, the Entity Assets or the other properties of the Business carried on by the Purchased Entities, and shall afford Purchaser (or its designees) the right to take extracts therefrom and to make copies thereof, and to make same available to relevant Tax authorities, to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Purchaser (or its designees) to prepare the Tax Returns of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or the Tax Returns of the Purchased Entities for which Purchaser is responsible, to conduct negotiations with Tax authorities and to investigate, prosecute or defend any Claims, including Tax Claims and including Claims arising between the Parties under Article 9 and to meet its financial reporting obligations in preparing audited financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

(d) Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Purchased Entities to, timely provide to Vendor or an Affiliate of Vendor designated by it, powers of attorney or similar authorizations reasonably required to carry out the intent and purpose of this Article 11.

11.9 Coordination with Other Provisions

(a) If any provision of this Article 11, conflicts with any provision of Articles 6 or 10, the provisions of this Article 11 shall govern, provided however, the payment obligations and other obligations under this Article 11, including indemnity payments under Section

104

11.1, payment of Tax refunds to Vendor and reimbursements for expenses, shall not be subject to Section 6.1.

(b) In this Article 11 references to Purchaser and the Purchased Entities shall include any successors and predecessors thereto, whether by merger, amalgamation, dissolution, reorganization or otherwise.

11.10 Tax Changes Post-Closing

Purchaser agrees and confirms that, notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement, Vendor shall not be liable for any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.25 to the extent that any change made after the Closing Time:

(a) in any accounting or taxation policies of a Purchased Entity,

(b) in any federal, state or provincial Tax rates, or

causes Vendor to be liable for breach of such representations and warranties.

11.11 Certain Closing Day Transactions

(a) If any of the Purchased Entities is party to an amalgamation (as defined in subsection 87(1) of the Tax Act) that occurs on the Closing Date and after the Closing Time on the Closing Date, Purchaser and the Purchased Entities shall take such steps as are necessary to ensure that such amalgamation shall be specified to occur at a specific time on the Closing Date, and that time shall not be earlier than 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date, and

(b) if control of any of the Purchased Entities is acquired on the Closing Date and after the Closing Time on the Closing Date (other than pursuant to the Purchase), such that the Purchased Entity has a deemed year end pursuant to subsection 249(4) of the Tax Act, Purchaser and the Purchased Entities shall take such steps as are necessary to ensure that an election pursuant to subsection 256(9) of the Tax Act is filed in respect of the transaction giving rise to that acquisition of control.

ARTICLE 12
TERMINATION AND CLOSING

12.1 Termination

This Agreement may be terminated at any time before Closing:

(a) by mutual written consent of Vendor and Purchaser,

105

(b) subject to Section 12.2, by Purchaser, if any of Purchaser’s Conditions shall not have been fulfilled by the Closing Time (or such earlier time if so required herein) or shall have become incapable of fulfillment by the Outside Date (or such earlier time if so required herein) other than as a result of Purchaser’s breach of this Agreement, and shall not have been waived by Purchaser,

(c) by Vendor, if at any time the representation and warranty contained in Section 5.9 is or becomes untrue, it being agreed that this Section 12.1(c) shall constitute Vendor’s sole termination remedy with respect to a breach by Vendor of Section 5.9,

(d) by Vendor, if any of Vendor’s Conditions shall not have been fulfilled by the Closing Time (or such earlier time if so required herein) or shall have become incapable of fulfillment by the Outside Date (or such earlier time if so required herein) other than as a result of Vendor’s breach of this Agreement, and shall not have been waived by Vendor,

(e) by either Vendor or Purchaser, if the Regulatory Condition has not been satisfied on or before the Regulatory Condition Deadline, provided that, the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 12.1(e) shall not be available to a Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has caused or resulted in the Regulatory Condition not being satisfied on or before the Regulatory Condition Deadline, and

(f) by either Vendor or Purchaser, if Closing does not occur on or before the Outside Date; provided that, the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 12.1(f) shall not be available to a Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has caused or resulted in Closing not occurring by the Outside Date.

(g) Prior to exercising their respective rights to terminate pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or (d), Vendor and Purchaser agree to provide notice of the applicable breach to the other Party and allow 10 Business Days thereafter during which:

(ii) the Parties will negotiate in good faith in and effort to avert a termination and complete the Purchase.

During such 10 Business Day period, neither Party shall exercise any other available termination rights hereunder.

106

otherwise refuse to complete the Purchase on the basis of any representations or warranties made by Vendor in Section 4.25 and Section 4.26 being incorrect or inaccurate. For clarity, this Section 12.2 shall apply to a determination as to whether the Purchaser’s Conditions in Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.11 have been satisfied or fulfilled.

(b) For the purposes of Section 12.2(a), including for purposes of:

(i) determining whether a representation and warranty is incorrect or inaccurate or a covenant of Vendor has been breached, and

(ii) calculating the amount of any Losses related thereto,

(c) For purposes of Section 12.2(a) and Section 7.11, any Loss attributable to a Damage or Destruction Event shall be calculated net of any proceeds of insurance paid or payable to any Purchased Entity or any Affiliate thereof in respect of such Damage or Destruction Event or any other monetary recovery or right to monetary recovery by or of any Purchased Entity in respect of such Damage or Destruction Event, including the proceeds paid or payable to any Purchased Entity or any Affiliate thereof in respect of any expropriation proceeding.

12.3 Notice of Termination

Subject to Section 12.4, termination of this Agreement by Vendor or Purchaser pursuant to Section 12.1 shall be effective upon deemed receipt of written notice thereof given by the Party terminating this Agreement to the other Party whereupon this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Parties’ obligation to consummate the Purchase) shall be terminated without further action by either Party.

ARTICLE 13
GENERAL

13.1 Waiver

Any waiver given hereunder must be in writing and signed by the Party giving such waiver.

13.2 Public Notices

(a) Vendor and Purchaser shall keep, and shall cause their Affiliates to keep, the terms of this Agreement confidential, except to the extent disclosure is: (i) permitted by the terms of this Section 13.2 or the January 28, 2011 Confidentiality Agreement, (ii) subject to Section 13.2(b), required by Applicable Law, Environmental Law or Governmental Authority, including the rules of any securities regulatory authority, listing authority or stock exchange with which the disclosing Person or any Affiliate of the disclosing Person is bound to comply, or (iii) for financial reporting purposes or as otherwise provided herein; except that the Parties and their Affiliates may disclose those terms hereof to their respective Representatives as necessary in connection with the ordinary conduct of their respective businesses so long as those Persons agree to keep the terms of this Agreement confidential (it being agreed that the applicable disclosing Party or Affiliate thereof shall make such Representatives aware of the confidentiality obligations under this Section 13.2(a) and shall be responsible for any breach thereof by such Representatives).

(b) Notwithstanding Section 13.2(a), without the consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), neither Vendor nor Purchaser will make, or permit its respective Affiliates to make, any press release or other public announcement respecting this Agreement without the consent of the other Party, unless:

(i) the Person desiring to make the press release or other public announcement is advised by its counsel that the release or announcement is required to comply with Applicable Law, Environmental Law or Governmental Authority, including the rules of any securities regulatory authority, listing authority or stock exchange with which the disclosing Person or any Affiliate of the disclosing Person is bound to comply, and

110

(ii) that press release or other public announcement does not disclose more information regarding this Agreement or the subject matter hereof than is required to comply with Applicable Law, Environmental Law or Governmental Authority, including the rules of any securities regulatory authority, listing authority or stock exchange with which the disclosing Person or any Affiliate of the disclosing Person is bound to comply,

provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the non-disclosing Party or its Affiliate is first provided with a copy of such proposed disclosure and a reasonable opportunity to comment on such disclosure.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 13.2(d), advance consent shall not be required in connection with, and nothing contained herein or in the January 28, 2011 Confidentiality Agreements shall prevent a Party or its Affiliates from:

(i) furnishing any information to any Governmental Authority:

(A) if required by Applicable Law, Environmental Law or Governmental Authority, including the rules of a securities regulatory authority, listing authority or stock exchange, or

(B) if required to obtain the Required Approvals, or

The Person proposing to make such disclosures will not unreasonably refuse to incorporate the requested changes of Vendor or Purchaser, as the case may be, to the applicable press release or other document.

13.3 Assignment

Neither this Agreement nor any benefits, rights or obligations under this Agreement shall be assignable by Vendor, without the prior express written consent of Purchaser, or by Purchaser, without the prior express written consent of Vendor, which consents may be arbitrarily withheld.

111

Notwithstanding the foregoing prohibition on assignment, Purchaser may assign all of its benefits, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate of Purchaser that is a resident of Canada for purposes of the Tax Act (but not if that assignment would extend the time for, or render less certain, the completion of the Purchase) provided that such assignment shall not release Purchaser from any of its obligations under this Agreement and provided further that such Affiliate enters into an agreement with Vendor, Purchaser and Purchaser Guarantor satisfactory to Vendor, pursuant to which that Affiliate expressly assumes all of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and Purchaser Guarantor agrees to guarantee those obligations as provided in the Guarantee, mutatis mutandis, and, if that assignment occurs before the Closing, Purchaser and such Affiliate covenant with Vendor that such Affiliate will remain an Affiliate of Purchaser until Closing. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, be enforceable by and be binding on the Parties and their respective successors (including any successor by reason of amalgamation, merger, wind up or dissolution of any Party) and permitted assigns.

Notwithstanding the foregoing prohibition on assignment, Vendor may assign any of its rights hereunder to any of its Affiliates (but not if that assignment would extend the time for, or render less certain, the completion of the Purchase) on written notice thereof to Purchaser.

Any obligation of a Party hereto may be discharged by an Affiliate of such Party without, however, derogating in any way from the liability of such Party to discharge such obligation.
