ARTICLE 1
INTERPRETATION

1.1        Definitions

In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all capitalized terms shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Trust Indenture provided that the following terms shall have the following meanings (whether or not defined in the Trust Indenture):

“Accommodation” means the Loans and Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Facility and shall refer to any one or more of such types where the context requires.

“Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA” means, for purposes of any calculation, the rate per annum equal to (a) Daily Compounded CORRA for such calculation plus (b) the Daily Compounded CORRA Adjustment.

“Adjusted Term CORRA” means, for purposes of any calculation, the rate per annum equal to (a) Term CORRA for such calculation plus (b) the Term CORRA Adjustment.

“Advance” means an advance by the Lenders or any of them of any Accommodation, and shall include deemed Advances and conversions, renewals and rollovers of existing Advances, and any reference relating to the amount of Advances shall mean the Canadian Dollar Amount of all outstanding Accommodation.

“Advanced Share” means the percentage of the total amount of Advances to the Borrower that has been made by a particular Lender at any time.

“Applicable Laws” means (a) any domestic or foreign statute, law (including common and civil law), treaty, code, ordinance, rule, regulation, restriction or by-law (zoning or otherwise); (b) any judgment, order, writ, injunction, decision, ruling, decree or award; (c) any regulatory policy, practice, guideline or directive; or (d) any franchise, licence, qualification, authorization, consent, exemption, waiver, right, permit or other approval of any governmental authority, binding on or affecting the person referred to in the context in which the term is used or binding on or affecting the property of such person, in each case whether or not having the force of law.

“Applicable Margin” means the applicable fee or margin amount set out in the following grid for the rating which corresponds to the rating received for the Borrower from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s or DBRS (collectively, the “Rating Agencies”) and which is determined below:

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 3 -

Ratings	Category I	Category II	Category III	Category IV	Category V
Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and DBRS	> A / A2 / A	A / A2 / A	A - / A3 / A(low)	BBB+ / Baa1 / BBB (high)	<BBB+ / Baa1 / BBB (high)
Term CORRA & Daily Compounded CORRA Margin	70 bps	80 bps	100 bps	120 bps	145 bps
Applicable Margin for Prime Rate Loans	0 bps	0 bps	0 bps	20 bps	45 bps
Standby Fee	14 bps	16 bps	20 bps	24 bps	29 bps

The ratings set forth in the foregoing table are the ratings assigned by each of the Rating Agencies to the Borrower until such time as ratings are assigned to the Outstanding Senior Bonds after which time the ratings set forth on the foregoing table shall refer to the ratings assigned by each of the Rating Agencies to the Outstanding Senior Bonds. For purposes of this Agreement, if at any time the ratings assigned by the Rating Agencies fall within different rating categories in accordance with the above table, the applicable rating category for purposes of calculating the Applicable Margin shall be determined as follows:

(a)    if only two Rating Agencies publish ratings of the Borrower and/or the Outstanding Senior Bonds, as applicable, the rating category containing the highest assigned rating shall govern, unless the difference in the ratings published by such two Rating Agencies is: (i) two rating levels, in which case the applicable rating shall be deemed to be the average between such two ratings; and (ii) more than two rating levels, in which case the applicable rating shall be deemed to be the rating one level higher than the lowest of such ratings;

(b)    if all three Rating Agencies publish ratings of the Borrower and/or the Outstanding Senior Bonds, as applicable, and two (2) of the Rating Agencies publish a similar rating category, such similar rating category shall govern; and

(c)    if all three Rating Agencies publish ratings of the Borrower and/or the Outstanding Senior Bonds, as applicable, which are different, the middle rating category of the three ratings shall govern.

Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin (other than with respect to Term CORRA Loans) resulting from a change in the rating assigned by one or more Rating Agency shall be calculated with reference to the new Applicable Margin and fee effective on and after the date on which such rating change is published, notwithstanding that any affected Advance may have been made or issued prior to such date. Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin with respect to Term CORRA Loans shall apply to all Term CORRA Loans drawn by the Borrower or on rollover or conversion pursuant to Section 2.5, as of the date of such drawing, rollover or conversion, as the case may be.

“Benchmark” means, initially, the Term CORRA Reference Rate or Daily Compounded CORRA, as the case may be; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to the Term CORRA Reference Rate, Daily Compounded CORRA, or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to Section 2.11(a).

“Benchmark Replacement” means, with respect to any Benchmark Transition Event,

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Agent and the Borrower giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time.

For the avoidance of doubt, the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (a) or (b) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(b)    a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Bank of Canada, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

(c)    a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are not, or as of a specified future date will not be, representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

(b)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.11.

(d)    Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term CORRA) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e)    Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans, which are of the type that have a rate of interest determined by reference to the then-current Benchmark, to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to, (i) for a Benchmark Unavailability Period in respect of Term CORRA, Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, and (ii) for a Benchmark Unavailability Period in respect of a Benchmark other than Term CORRA, Prime Rate Loans.

3.5    Interest Act (Canada)

For the purpose of the Interest Act (Canada), and disclosure thereunder, whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith is to be calculated on the basis other than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used, multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by the number of days used in the basis of such determination.

The Borrower and the General Partner acknowledge and confirm that this Section 3.5 satisfies the requirements of Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) to the extent it applies to the expression or statement of any interest payable under this Agreement and that each of the Borrower and the General Partner is able to calculate the yearly rate or percentage of interest payable under this Agreement based upon the methodology set out in this Section 3.5. The Borrower and the General Partner each agree not to plead or assert, whether by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement, that the interest payable hereunder and the calculation of interest herein have not been adequately disclosed to them, whether pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other Applicable Law or legal principle.

3.6    Deemed Reinvestment Principle

For the purpose of the Interest Act (Canada), the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement and the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

3.7    Maximum Return

It is the intent of the parties hereto that the return to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement shall not exceed the maximum return permitted under the laws of Canada and if the return to the Lenders would, but for this provision, exceed the maximum return permitted under the laws of Canada, the return to the Lenders shall be limited to the maximum return permitted under the laws of Canada and this Agreement shall automatically be modified without the necessity of any further act or deed to give effect to the restriction on return set forth above.

3.8    Inability to Determine CORRA Rates

(a)    Subject to Section 2.11, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable:

(i)    the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term CORRA” or “Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA”, as applicable, cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, for reasons other than a Benchmark Transition Event, or

(ii)    the Majority Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Term CORRA or Daily Compounded CORRA, as applicable, for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Loan, and the Majority Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Agent,

(b)    the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

(c)    Upon delivery of such notice by the Agent to the Borrower under Section 3.8(a), any obligation of the Lenders to make Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, and any right of the Borrower to continue Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, or to convert Prime Rate Loans to Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, or affected Interest Periods) until the Agent (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Majority Lenders) revokes such notice.

(d)    Upon receipt of such notice by the Agent to the Borrower under 3.8(a), (i)(x) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, (to the extent of the affected Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, or affected Interest Periods); (y) in respect of Term CORRA Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Daily Compounded CORRA Loans; or, failing such revocation or election, (z) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Prime Rate Loans, in the amount specified therein and (ii) (x) in respect of Term CORRA Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert any outstanding affected Term CORRA Loans at the end of the applicable interest Period, into Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, and (y) otherwise, or failing such election, any outstanding affected Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, will be deemed to have been converted, at the end of the applicable Interest Period, into Prime Rate Loans. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 5.1(b).

ARTICLE 4

Accrued standby fees shall be calculated quarterly and be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day after the end of each quarter of each Fiscal Year of the Borrower.

4.3    Basis of Calculation of Fees

The fees payable under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 with respect to any period shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in such period divided by three hundred and sixty-five (365) days or three hundred and sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be.

4.4    Extension Fee

In consideration of the Lenders amending the terms of this Agreement as set out herein, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent on the acceptance, execution and delivery of this Agreement an up-front fee of 3.0 bps on Cdn.$75,000,000, which for clarity is Cdn.$22,500.

(i)    With respect to any voluntary repayment of Accommodation (other than Overdrafts), unless the Agent with the consent of the Lenders otherwise approves, the Canadian Dollar Amount of Accommodation included in such repayment shall be Ten Million Canadian Dollars (Cdn.$10,000,000) or whole multiples of One Million Canadian Dollars (Cdn.$1,000,000) or the entire amount of that type of Accommodation outstanding, and the Borrower shall give the Agent a written notice of repayment, specifying the amount, the type or types of Accommodation to be included in the repayment (and where such Accommodation includes any Loan, the interest rate applicable thereto) and the applicable voluntary repayment date, which notice shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.

(ii)    In the case of Loans with a Canadian Dollar Amount in the aggregate equal to or greater than Ten Million Canadian Dollars (Cdn.$10,000,000) that are being repaid, the notice of repayment shall be given to the Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. on the second Business Day preceding the applicable repayment date. In all other cases, notice of repayment shall be given on the applicable repayment date.

(iii)    Any notice of repayment received by the party entitled thereto on any Business Day after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed to have been given to such party on the next succeeding Business Day.

(iv)    With respect to voluntary repayment of Overdrafts, there is no requirement for a minimum payment and no requirement for notice.

(v)    On the applicable voluntary repayment date the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, the amount of any Accommodation that is subject to the repayment, together with all interest and other fees and amounts accrued, unpaid and due in respect of such repayment; provided, however, that accrued interest will not be repayable prior to the applicable interest payment date in Section 3.1 in respect of Overdrafts or in respect of Prime Rate Loans unless the full balance outstanding thereunder is voluntarily repaid.

(b)    Compensation for Losses. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, prior to the last day of an Interest Period, (b) the conversion of any Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, other than on the last day of the Interest Period, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan, or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any Term CORRA Loan or Daily Compounded CORRA Loan, as applicable, other than on the last day of the Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.10, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by the Agent, on behalf of any Lender affected by any such event (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event by making payment to the Agent, and the Agent shall provide such payment to the relevant Lender. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section delivered to the Borrower shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt of such demand.

5.2    Repayment on Maturity Date and Extension

(a)    Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to this Section, the Borrower shall repay in full all outstanding Accommodation, together with all interest, fees and other amounts payable hereunder on the applicable Maturity Date to the Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Lender, the Overdraft Lender or the Lenders, as applicable.

The Lenders agree that they shall give or withhold their consent in a timely manner so that the Agent may provide a response to the Borrower to the Notice of Extension within thirty (30) days from the date of such receipt, provided that the decision of any Lender to extend the Maturity Date in respect of such Lender shall be at the sole discretion of such Lender. The Borrower shall be entitled to replace any Lender which dissents in response to the Notice of Extension (a “Dissenting Lender”) with another existing Lender or Lenders without the consent of any of the remaining Lenders; or to replace a Dissenting Lender with any financial institution which is not an existing Lender with the consent of the Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Borrower shall be entitled, with the unanimous consent of the Lenders who have agreed to extend, to permanently cancel the Commitment of any Dissenting Lender and repay such Dissenting

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

Lender, at which time the Committed Amount shall be permanently reduced by the amount of such Commitment.

In addition to the other repayment rights, obligations or options set forth in this Article, if the aggregate Canadian Dollar Amount of all Accommodations outstanding under the Credit Facility at any time exceeds the then limit of the Credit Facility, the Borrower shall immediately upon request of the Agent repay such excess.

5.4    Illegality

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the making or continuation of any Accommodation shall have been made unlawful or prohibited due to compliance by any of the Agent and the Lenders in good faith with any change made after the date hereof in any law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in any interpretation or application of any law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order by any competent authority, or with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any central bank, reserve board, superintendent of financial institutions or other comparable authority made after the date hereof, then the Agent will give notice thereof to the Borrower which shall repay such Accommodation within a reasonable period or such shorter period as may be required by law. During the continuation of any such event the Lenders will have no obligation under this Agreement to make or continue any Accommodation affected thereby.

ARTICLE 6
PAYMENTS AND INDEMNITIES

6.1Payments on Non-Business Days

Unless otherwise provided herein, whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest or fees shall be payable at the appropriate rate during such extension.

6.2Method and Place of Payment

Unless otherwise provided herein, all payments made by the Borrower to the Agent under this Agreement will be made not later than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto, Ontario time) on the date when due, and all such payments will be made in immediately available funds. Any amounts received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Agent on the next Business Day.

6.3Net Payments

All payments by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made without set-off or counterclaim or other deduction and without regard to any equities between the Borrower and the Agent or any of the Lenders or any other Person and free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, any present or future levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or other withholdings, and if the Borrower is required by law to withhold any amount, then the Borrower will increase the amount of such payment to an amount which will ensure that the Agent receives the full amount of the original payment.

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 29 -

6.4Agent May Debit Account

The Agent may debit any accounts of the Borrower with the Agent for any payment or amount due and payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement without further direction from the Borrower to the Agent; provided that any such debit is not in conflict with the provisions of the Trust Indenture but in any event such debits may be made in accordance with the Agent’s centralized cash management arrangements with the Borrower.

6.5Currency of Payment

Accommodations shall be repaid by the Borrower to the Agent or a Lender as required under this Agreement in the currency in which such Accommodation was obtained. Any payment on account of an amount payable under this Agreement in a particular currency (the “Proper Currency”) required by any authority having jurisdiction to be made (or which a Lender elects to accept) in a currency (the “Other Currency”) other than the Proper Currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or order of any court or tribunal or otherwise, shall constitute a discharge of the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement only to the extent of the amount of the Proper Currency which each applicable Lender is able, as soon as practicable after receipt by it of such payment, to purchase with the amount of the Other Currency so received. If the amount of the Proper Currency which a Lender is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Proper Currency originally due to it, the Borrower shall indemnify and hold such Lender harmless from and against all losses, costs, damages or expenses which such Lender may sustain, pay or incur as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from any other obligation contained in this Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Lenders from time to time, shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or under any judgment or order and shall not merge in any order of foreclosure made in respect of any of the security given by the Borrower to or for the benefit of any Lender.

6.6Taxes.

(a)    Payments Subject to Taxes. If the Borrower, the Agent or any Lender is required by Applicable Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes in respect of any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Credit Document, then (i) in the case of Indemnified Taxes the sum payable shall be increased by the Borrower when payable as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings on account of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been required, (ii) the Borrower shall make any such deductions or withholdings required to be made by it under Applicable Law and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount required to be deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(c)    Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender, within 15 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Agent or such Lender and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 30 -

or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In the event the Lender subsequently recovers all or part of the payment made under this Section paid by the Borrower, it shall promptly repay an equal amount to the Borrower.

(d)    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(e)    Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements.

(f)    Treatment of Certain Refunds and Tax Reductions. If the Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6.6, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund or reduction), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any net after-Tax interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Borrower upon the request of the Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or such Lender if the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund or reduction to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person, to arrange its affairs in any particular manner or to claim any available refund or reduction.

(g)    FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to withholding taxes imposed by FATCA, if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 31 -

(including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(h)    The provisions of this Section 6.6 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document, repayment of the Loans, and termination of this Agreement.

6.7Increased Costs

If after the date of this Agreement any Change in Law shall:

(a)    subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Accommodation or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable under this Agreement, except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 6.6 and the imposition, or any change in the rate, of any Excluded Taxes payable by such Lender;

(b)    impose, modify or make applicable any capital adequacy, reserve, assessment, special deposit or loans or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or Loans or other Accommodations, credit facilities or commitments made available by, or any other acquisition of funds by, such Lender; or

(c)    impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement, Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to impose or increase the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining any part of the Credit Facilities or any Accommodation or to reduce any amount receivable by the Lender under this Agreement with respect thereto, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the relevant Lender within thirty (30) days after the date of demand by the Agent such additional amounts necessary to fully compensate the Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable. If a Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, the Agent shall promptly upon receipt of particulars from the relevant Lender notify the Borrower of the event by reason of which the Lender has become so entitled and provide the Borrower with an explanation of the manner in which the liability of the Borrower under this Section has been determined. A certificate of the Lender as to any such additional amounts payable to it shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and the Lenders and their directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents against and hold each of them harmless from any loss, liabilities, damages, claims, costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel to the Agent and the Lenders on a solicitor and his own client basis and reasonable fees and expenses of all independent consultants) (each a “Claim”) suffered or incurred by any of them arising out of, resulting from or in any manner connected with or related to:

(a)    any Environmental Matter, Environmental Liability or Environmental Proceeding; and

(b)    any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or re-employing deposits from which such funds were obtained, which the Agent or Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

6.10Mitigation Obligations: Replacement of Lenders.

(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 6.7, or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 6.6, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Accommodations hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender (with the prior consent of the Borrower), such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.7 or Section 6.6, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 6.6, any Lender’s obligations are suspended pursuant to Section 6.11, or any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Accommodations hereunder, then the Borrower may either, at its sole expense and effort, upon ten (10) days’ notice to such Lender and the Agent: (i) repay all outstanding amounts due to such affected Lender (or such portion which has not been acquired pursuant to clause (ii) below) and thereupon such Commitment of the affected Lender shall be permanently cancelled and the aggregate Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the same amount and the Commitment of each of the other Lenders shall remain the same; or (ii) require such Lender to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.4), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i)    the Borrower pays the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 12.14;

(ii)    the assigning Lender receives payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Accommodations outstanding, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any breakage costs and amounts required to be paid under this Agreement as a result of prepayment to such Lender) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 6.7 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 6.6, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(d)    such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

6.11    Illegality

If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to Adjusted Term CORRA or Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA, as applicable, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Adjusted Term CORRA or Adjusted Daily Compounded CORRA, as applicable, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA, as applicable, or to convert Prime Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, of such Lender to Prime Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period , if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans, as applicable, to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term CORRA Loans or Daily Compounded CORRA Loans,

as applicable. Each Lender agrees to notify the Agent and the Borrower in writing promptly upon becoming aware that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Adjusted Term CORRA or Daily Compounded CORRA, as applicable.

Supplemental Indenture) of the Borrower to the Lenders and proceed to exercise any and all rights hereunder (including the remedies set out in (a) through (d) above) and under the Security and no such remedy for the enforcement of the rights of the Lenders shall be exclusive of or dependent on any other remedy but any one or more of such remedies may from time to time be exercised independently or in combination.

11.5Non-Merger

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 43 -

provided that none of the foregoing shall apply to rights of set-off exercised by the Agent in the ordinary course of the operation of the Agent’s centralized cash management system with the Borrower.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and a demand by the Agent for payment pursuant to Section 11.3, the Agent and each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time and from time to time with notice to the Borrower to combine, consolidate and merge on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Bondholders (as defined in the Trust Indenture) all or any of the Borrower’s Accounts with liabilities to the Agent or such Lender and to set-off, appropriate and apply on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of such bondholders or to otherwise seize and remit to the Trustee any and all deposits by or for the benefit of the Borrower with any branch of the Agent or such Lender, general or special, matured or unmatured, and any other indebtedness and liability of the Agent or such Lender to the Borrower, matured or unmatured, against and on account of the indebtedness of the Borrower hereunder when due, notwithstanding that the balances of such accounts, deposits or indebtedness may or may not be expressed in the same currency.

THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS

12.1Authorization of Agent and Relationship

Each Lender hereby appoints BNS as Agent and BNS hereby accepts such appointment. The appointment may only be terminated as expressly provided in this Agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to take all action on its behalf and to exercise such powers and perform such duties under this Agreement as are expressly delegated to the Agent by its terms, together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto. Except as expressly specified in this Agreement, the Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities of a solely mechanical and administrative nature that are expressly delegated to the Agent by this Agreement or are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent may perform such duties by or through its agents or employees, but shall not by reason of this Agreement have a fiduciary duty in respect of any Lender. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Agent is not required to exercise any discretion or to take any action, but is required to act or to refrain from acting (and is fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as the case may be. Those instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders, but the Agent is not required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or Applicable Laws.

12.2Disclaimer of Agent

The Agent makes no representation or warranty, and assumes no responsibility with respect to the due execution, legality, validity, sufficiency, enforceability or collectability of this Agreement or any other Credit Document. The Agent assumes no responsibility for the financial condition of the Borrower, or for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. The Agent assumes no responsibility with respect to the accuracy, authenticity, legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any documents, papers, materials or other information furnished by the Borrower to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders. The Agent shall not be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or as to the use of the proceeds of any credit hereunder or (unless the officers or employees of the Lender acting as Agent active in their capacity as officers or employees on the Borrower’s accounts have actual knowledge thereof, or have been notified thereof in writing by the Borrower or a Lender) of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Agent under or in connection with the Agreement, whether in the good faith exercise of any discretion expressly granted to the Agent or otherwise, except for actions or

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 44 -

omissions arising from its or their own negligence or wilful misconduct. With respect to its Commitment, the Lender acting as Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender, and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it as Agent hereunder.

12.3Failure of Lender to Fund

(a)    Unless the Agent has actual knowledge that a Lender has not made or will not make available to the Agent for value on a Borrowing Date the applicable amount required from such Lender pursuant to Article 2, the Agent shall be entitled to assume that such amount has been or will be received from such Lender when so due and the Agent may (but shall not be obliged to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not in fact received by the Agent from such Lender on such Borrowing Date and the Agent has made available a corresponding amount to the Borrower on such Borrowing Date as aforesaid, such Lender shall pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the rate per annum then in use at the Branch as a syndicate lender late payment rate, multiplied by (ii) the amount that should have been paid to the Agent by such Lender on such Borrowing Date and was not, multiplied by (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed from and including such Borrowing Date to but excluding the date on which the amount is received by the Agent from such Lender and the denominator of which is three hundred and sixty-five (365). A certificate of the Agent containing details of the amount owing by a Lender under this Section shall be binding and conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If any such amount is not in fact received by the Agent from such Lender on such Borrowing Date, the Agent shall be entitled to recover from the Borrower, on demand, the related amount made available by the Agent to the Borrower as aforesaid together with interest thereon at the applicable rate per annum payable by the Borrower hereunder.

(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection 12.3(a), if any Lender fails to make available to the Agent its Proportionate Share of any Advance (such Lender being herein called the “Defaulting Lender”), the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such failure by the Defaulting Lender to the other Lenders. The Agent shall then forthwith give notice to the other Lenders that any Lender may make available all or any portion of the Defaulting Lender’s share of such Advance in the place of the Defaulting Lender, but in no way shall any other Lender or the Agent be obliged to do so. If more than one Lender gives notice that it is prepared to make funds available in the place of a Defaulting Lender in such circumstances and the aggregate of the funds which such Lenders (herein collectively called the “Contributing Lenders” and individually called the “Contributing Lender”) are prepared to make available exceeds the amount of the Advance which the Defaulting Lender failed to make, then each Contributing Lender shall be deemed to have given notice that it is prepared to make available a portion of such Advance based on the Contributing Lenders’ relative Proportionate Shares. If any Contributing Lender makes funds available in the place of a Defaulting Lender in such circumstances, then the Defaulting Lender shall pay to any Contributing Lender making the funds available in its place, forthwith on demand any amount advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at the rate applicable to such Advance from the date of advance to the date of payment, against payment by the Contributing Lender making the funds available of all interest received in respect of the Advance from the Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Agent its Proportionate Share of any Advance as required herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make available to the Agent its Proportionate Share of any Advance as required herein.

12.4Payments by the Borrower

Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement as among the Lenders, all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall be made to and received by the Agent and shall be distributed by the Agent to the Lenders as soon as possible upon receipt by the Agent. Subject to any other provision of this Agreement concerning the distribution of payments, the Agent shall cause distribution of:

(a)    payments of interest in accordance with each Lender’s Advanced Share of the Advances to which the payment relates;

(b)    repayments of principal in accordance with each Lender’s Advanced Share of the Advances to which the payment relates;

(c)    payments of standby fees in accordance with Section 4.3; and

(d)    all other payments including, without limitation, amounts received upon realization, in accordance with each Lender’s Proportionate Share; provided, however, that with respect to proceeds of realization, no Lender shall receive an amount in excess of the amounts owing to it in respect of the Accommodations.

Subject to Section 12.5, if the Agent does not distribute a Lender’s share of a payment made by the Borrower to that Lender for value on the day that payment is made or deemed to have been made to the Agent, the Agent shall pay to the Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the rate per annum then in use at the Branch as a syndicate lender late payment rate, multiplied by (ii) the Lender’s share of the amount received by the Agent from the Borrower and not so distributed, multiplied by (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed from and including the date of receipt of the payment by the Agent to but excluding the date on which the payment is made by the Agent to such Lender and the denominator of which is three hundred and sixty-five (365).

12.5Payments by Agent

(a)    For greater certainty, the following provisions shall apply to any and all payments made by the Agent to the Lenders hereunder:

(i)    the Agent shall be under no obligation to make any payment (whether in respect of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) to any Lender until an amount in respect of such payment has been received by the Agent from the Borrower;

(ii)    if the Agent receives less than the full amount of any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amount owing by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Agent shall have no obligation to remit to each Lender any amount other than such Lender’s share of that amount which is actually received by the Agent;

(iii)    if a Lender’s share of an Advance has been advanced, or a Lender’s Commitment has been outstanding, for less than the full period to which any payment (other than a payment of principal) by the Borrower relates, such Lender’s entitlement to such payment shall be reduced in proportion to the length of time such Lender’s share of the Advance or such Lender’s Commitment, as the case may be, has actually been outstanding;

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 46 -

(iv)    the Agent acting reasonably and in good faith shall, after consultation with the Lenders in the case of any dispute, determine in all cases the amount of all payments to which each Lender is entitled and such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be binding and conclusive; and

(v)    upon request, the Agent shall deliver a statement detailing any of the payments to the Lenders referred to herein.

(b)    Unless the Agent has actual knowledge that the Borrower has not made or will not make a payment to the Agent for value on the date in respect of which the Borrower has notified the Agent that the payment will be made, the Agent shall be entitled to assume that such payment has been or will be received from the Borrower when due and the Agent may (but shall not be obliged to), in reliance upon such assumption, pay the Lenders corresponding amounts. If the payment by the Borrower is in fact not received by the Agent on the required date and the Agent has made available corresponding amounts to the Lenders, the Borrower shall, without limiting its other obligations under this Agreement, indemnify the Agent against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on or incurred by the Agent as a result. A certificate of the Agent with respect to any amount owing by the Borrower under this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the amount owing in the absence of manifest error. The Agent shall be entitled to recover from each Lender to which a payment is made in reliance on the expectation of payment from the Borrower in accordance with this Section, the full amount of such payment that is not recovered from the Borrower, together with interest at the rate per annum then in use at the Branch as a syndicate lender late payment rate, from the date on which payment is made by the Agent to the date on which repayment is made by the Lender receiving such payment.

12.6Direct Payments

The Lenders agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, all sums received by a Lender relating to this Agreement whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of the right of set-off or compensation or by counterclaim, cross-action or otherwise, shall be shared by each Lender so that the ultimate exposure of each Lender is in accordance with its Advanced Share of all Advances under this Credit Facility, and each Lender undertakes to do all such things as may be reasonably required to give full effect to this Section, including without limitation, the purchase from other Lenders of their proportionate interest in the Borrowings by the Lender who has received an amount in excess of its Proportionate Share of amounts advanced under this Credit Facility as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess amount rateably with the other Lenders to the extent of their Advanced Share of any Advances under this Credit Facility. If any Lender shall obtain any payment of moneys due under this Agreement as referred to above, it shall forthwith remit such payment to the Agent and, upon receipt, the Agent shall distribute such payment in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.5.

12.7Administration of the Credit Facilities

(a)    Unless otherwise specified herein, the Agent shall perform the following duties under this Agreement:

(i)    prior to any Borrowing, ensure that all conditions precedent have been fulfilled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, subject to Subsection 12.8(b) and any other applicable terms of this Agreement;

(ii)    use reasonable efforts to collect promptly all sums due and payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii)    hold all legal documents relating to the Credit Facilities, maintain complete and accurate records showing all Advances made by the Lenders, all remittances and payments made by the Borrower to the Agent, all remittances and payments made by the Agent to the Lenders and all fees or any other sums received by the Agent and, except for accounts, records and documents relating to the fees payable under any separate fee agreement, allow each Lender and their respective advisers to examine such accounts, records and documents at their own expense, and provide any Lender, upon reasonable notice, with such copies thereof as such Lender may reasonably require from time to time at the Lender’s expense;

(iv)    except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement, promptly advise each Lender upon receipt of each notice and deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt, all other written communications furnished by the Borrower to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation copies of financial reports and certificates which are to be furnished to the Agent;

(v)    forward to each of the Lenders, upon request, copies of this Agreement, and other Credit Documents (other than any separate fee agreement);

(vi)    promptly forward to each Lender, upon request, an up-to-date loan status report; and

(vii)    upon learning of same, promptly advise each Lender in writing of the occurrence of an Event of Default or Default or the occurrence of any event, condition or circumstance which would have a Material Adverse Effect on the ability of the Borrower to comply with this Agreement or of the occurrence of any material adverse change on the business, operations or assets of the Borrower, taken as a whole, provided that, except as aforesaid, the Agent shall be under no duty or obligation whatsoever to provide any notice to the Lenders and further provided that each Lender hereby agrees to notify the Agent of any Event of Default or Default of which it may reasonably become aware.

(b)    The Agent may take the following actions only with the prior consent of the Majority Lenders, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement:

(i)    subject to Subsection 12.7(c), exercise any and all rights of approval conferred upon the Lenders by this Agreement;

(ii)    amend, modify or waive any of the terms of this Agreement (including waiver of an Event of Default or Default) if such amendment, modification or waiver would have a Material Adverse Effect on the rights of the Lenders thereunder and if such action is not otherwise provided for in Subsection 12.7(c);

(iii)    declare an Event of Default or take action to enforce performance of the obligations of the Borrower and pursue any available legal remedy necessary;

(iv)    decide to accelerate the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities; and

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 48 -

(v)    pay insurance premiums, taxes and any other sums as may be reasonably required to protect the interests of the Lenders.

(c)    The Agent may take the following actions only if the prior unanimous consent of the Lenders is obtained, unless otherwise specified herein:

(i)    amend, modify, discharge, terminate or waive any of the terms of this Agreement if such amendment, modification, discharge, termination or waiver would amend the Canadian Dollar Amount of any Accommodation outstanding, reduce the interest rate applicable to any Accommodation, reduce the fees or other amounts payable with respect to any Accommodation, extend any date fixed for payment of principal, interest or other amounts relating to the Credit Facilities or extend the Maturity Date of the Credit Facility; and

(ii)    amend the definition of “Majority Lenders” or this Subsection 12.7(c).

(d)    Notwithstanding Subsection 12.7(b) and any other provision of this Agreement except for Subsection 12.7(c), in the absence of instructions from the Lenders and where, in the sole opinion of the Agent, acting reasonably and in good faith, the exigencies of the situation warrant such action to protect the interests of the Lenders, the Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as the Agent deems appropriate or desirable.

(e)    As between the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders:

(i)    all statements, certificates, consents and other documents which the Agent purports to deliver on behalf of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders shall be binding on each of the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not be required to ascertain or confirm the authority of the Agent in delivering such documents;

(ii)    all certificates, statements, notices and other documents which are delivered by the Borrower to the Agent in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to have been duly delivered to each of the Lenders, except where this Agreement expressly requires delivery of notices of Advances and payments to the Agent and/or individual Lenders;

(iii)    except in connection with Overdrafts and Letters of Credit, all payments which are delivered by the Borrower to the Agent in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to have been duly delivered to each of the Lenders.

12.8Rights of Agent

(a)    In administering the Credit Facility, the Agent may retain, at the expense of the Lenders if such expenses are not recoverable from the Borrower, such solicitors, counsel, auditors and other experts and agents as the Agent may select, in its sole discretion, acting reasonably and in good faith after consultation with the Lenders.

(b)    The Agent shall be entitled to rely on any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed by the proper individual or individuals, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying as to legal matters upon opinions of independent legal advisers selected by it. The Agent may also assume that any representation made by the Borrower is true and that no Event of Default or Default has occurred

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 49 -

unless the officers or employees of the Agent have actual knowledge to the contrary or have received notice to the contrary from any other party to this Agreement. In determining whether the Borrower is entitled to an Advance by way of Overdraft or Letter of Credit, the Overdraft Lender or Letter of Credit Lender, as applicable, providing that Advance, shall be entitled to the same protection to which the Agent is entitled under this Subsection 12.8(b).

(c)    The Agent may, without any liability to account, accept deposits from and lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking or other business with the Borrower, as if it were not the Agent.

(d)    Except in its own right as a Lender, the Agent shall not be required to advance its own funds for any purpose, and in particular, shall not be required to pay with its own funds insurance premiums, taxes or public utility charges or the cost of repairs or maintenance with respect to the assets which are the subject matter of any security, nor shall it be required to pay with its own funds the fees of solicitors, counsel, auditors, experts or agents engaged by it as permitted hereby.

(e)    The Agent shall be entitled to receive a fee for acting as Agent, as agreed between the Agent and the Borrower; provided the Agent agrees that no such fee shall be payable unless there are two or more Lenders.

12.9Acknowledgements, Representations and Covenants of Lenders

(a)    It is acknowledged and agreed by each Lender that it has itself been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of and investigations into the financial condition, creditworthiness, property, affairs, status and nature of the Borrower. Accordingly, each Lender confirms to the Agent that it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely, on the Agent (i) to check or inquire on its behalf into the adequacy or completeness of any information provided by the Borrower under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions herein contemplated (whether or not such information has been or is hereafter distributed to such Lender by the Agent) or (ii) to assess or keep under review on its behalf the financial condition, creditworthiness, property, affairs, status or nature of the Borrower.

(b)    Each Lender represents and warrants to the Agent and the Borrower that it has the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement pursuant to its constating documents and any applicable legislation and has not violated its constating documents or any applicable legislation by so doing.

(c)    Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), rateably according to its Proportionate Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Credit Documents or the transactions therein contemplated, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent’s negligence or wilful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its Proportionate Share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preservation of any rights of the Agent or the Lenders under, or the enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under this Agreement, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower.

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 50 -

The obligation of the Lenders to indemnify the Agent shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(d)    Each of the Lenders acknowledges and confirms that in the event the Agent does not receive payment in accordance with this Agreement, it shall not be the obligation of the Agent to maintain the Credit Facilities in good standing nor shall any Lender have recourse to the Agent in respect of any amounts owing to such Lender under this Agreement.

(e)    Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to advance its Proportionate Share of Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement is independent and in no way related to the obligation of any other Lender hereunder.

(f)    Each Lender hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of this Agreement and acknowledges that it is satisfied with the form and content of such documents.

(g)    Except to the extent recovered by the Agent from the Borrower, promptly following demand therefor, each Lender shall pay to the Agent an amount equal to such Lender’s Proportionate Share of any and all reasonable costs, expenses, claims, losses and liabilities incurred by the Agent in connection with this Agreement, except for those incurred by reason of the Agent’s negligence or wilful misconduct.

12.10Collective Action of the Lenders

Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, the remedies provided under the Credit Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and under any security are to be exercised not severally, but by the Agent upon the decision of the Majority Lenders or Lenders as required by this Agreement. Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder including, without limitation, any declaration of default hereunder or thereunder but that any such action shall be taken only by the Agent with the prior written agreement of the Majority Lenders. Each of the Lenders hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written agreement being given by the Majority Lenders, it shall co-operate fully with the Agent to the extent requested by the Agent.

12.11Successor Agent

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a Successor Agent as provided in this Section, the Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and may be removed at any time by all Lenders other than the Lender that is acting as Agent, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice of termination. Upon receipt of notice by the Lenders of the resignation of the Agent, or upon giving notice of termination to the Agent, the Majority Lenders (taking into account the Proportionate Share of the resigning or terminated Agent) may, within twenty-one (21) days and with the approval of the Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, appoint a successor from among the Lenders or, if no Lender is willing to accept such an appointment, from among other financial institutions which each have combined capital and reserves in excess of Two Hundred and Fifty Million Canadian Dollars (Cdn.$250,000,000), and which have offices in Calgary (the “Successor Agent”). If no Successor Agent has been so appointed and has accepted such appointment within twenty-one (21) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or receiving of notice of termination, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a Successor Agent in accordance herewith. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 51 -

hereunder by a Successor Agent, the retiring Agent shall pay the Successor Agent any unearned portion of any fee paid to the Agent for acting as such, and the Successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its further duties and obligations as Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article shall continue to enure to its benefit and be binding upon it as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent hereunder.

12.12Provisions Operative Between Lenders and Agent Only

Except for the provisions of Subsections 12.7(e), 12.9(b), Sections 12.10, 12.11, 12.13, 12.14 and 12.15, the provisions of this Article relating to the rights and obligations of the Lenders and the Agent shall be operative as between the Lenders and the Agent only, and the Borrower shall not have any rights or obligations under or be entitled to rely for any purpose upon such provisions.

12.13Assignments and Participation - Approvals

A Lender may:

(a)    upon notice to the Borrower grant participation (a “Participation”) in all or any part of the rights, benefits and obligations of the Lenders hereunder to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”); or

(b)    assign (an “Assignment”) all or part of the rights, benefits and obligations of such Lender hereunder to one or more Persons (each an “Assignee”);

with the prior consent of the Borrower, the Agent and the Letter of Credit Lender, which consent may be withheld by any such party in its sole discretion. Any such Participant or Assignee may grant further Participation to other Participants or make further assignments to other Assignees; with the prior consent of the Borrower, the Agent and the Letter of Credit Lender, which consent may be withheld by any such party in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no grant to a Participant or Assignment to an Assignee shall require the consent of the Borrower at a time when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

12.14Assignments

(a)    Subject to Section 12.13, the Lenders collectively or individually may assign to one or more Assignees all or a portion of their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement (an undivided portion thereof corresponding to the portion of the Commitment being assigned) by way of Assignment.

After such execution, delivery, consent and recording the Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement, other than obligations in respect of which it is then in default and liabilities arising from its actions prior to the Assignment, and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 52 -

and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto (other than in respect of its indemnification rights). The Lenders agree that, provided that no Event of Default under this Agreement or the Trust Indenture has occurred, no assignment shall be made which would result in any increased costs to the Borrower.

(b)    The agreements of an Assignee contained in an Assignment Agreement shall benefit the assigning Lender thereunder, the other Lenders, the Agent and the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Assignment Agreement.

(c)    The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to herein a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered and consented to by the Lender and, where required, by the Borrower and a register for recording the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Borrower, the Agent and each of the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, and need not recognize any Person as a Lender unless it is recorded in the Register as a Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Lender or the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)    Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee and approved by the Agent, and, where required, by the Borrower, the Agent shall, if the Assignment Agreement has been completed and is in the required form with such immaterial changes as are acceptable to the Agent:

(i)    record the information contained therein in the Register; and

(ii)    give prompt notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower, and provide them with an updated version of Schedule 5.

12.15Participation

Each Lender may (subject to the provisions of Section 12.13) grant Participation to one or more financial institutions in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment), but the Participant shall not become a Lender and:

(a)    the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment) shall remain unchanged;

(b)    the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations;

(c)    the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; and

(d)    no Participant shall have any right to participate in any decision of the Lender or the Majority Lenders hereunder or to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by any Person therefrom.

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 53 -

Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.6 and Section 6.7 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.14.

(e)    Limitation on Participants Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 6.6 and Section 6.7 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

12.16    Erroneous Payment Provision

(a)    If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of such Lender (any such Lender or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of (x) a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the overnight rate at which Canadian Dollars may be borrowed by the Administrative Agent in the interbank market in an amount comparable to such Erroneous Payment (as determined by the Administrative Agent) and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)    Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of such Lender, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

LEGAL_1:83525085.7

\

- 54 -

(i)    (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)    such Lender shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.16(b).

(c)    Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d)    In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Loans”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Loans, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver a Lender Assignment Agreement with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this

Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender under the Credit Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”). For the avoidance of doubt, it is hereby understood and agreed that the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall be deemed to constitute debts, liabilities or obligations owed by the Borrower hereunder.

(e)    The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any debts, liabilities and obligations owed by the Borrower hereunder, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f)    To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g)    Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 12.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all debts, liabilities and obligations owed by the Borrower (or any portion thereof) under any Credit Document.
