In connection with each exercise of the Exchange Right, PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) will provide to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Exchange Consideration for each Exchangeable Share.

Immediately upon the giving of notice by Corporation to PASW of the exercise of the Exchange Right, as provided in this section 4.6, the exchange shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Holder of such Exchangeable Shares shall be deemed to have transferred to PASW all of its right, title and interest in and to such Exchangeable Shares and shall cease to be a holder of such Exchangeable Shares and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a holder in respect thereof, other than the right to receive his proportionate part of the total Exchange Consideration therefor, unless the requisite number of shares of PASW Common Stock (together with a cheque for the balance, if any, of the total Exchange Consideration therefor without interest less any tax required to be deducted or withheld from the total Exchange Consideration by PASW) is not allotted, issued and delivered by PASW to such Holder (or to such other persons, if any, properly designated by such Holder), within five Business Days of the date of the exercise of the Exchange Right, in which case the rights of the Holder shall remain unaffected until such shares of PASW Common Stock are so allotted, issued and delivered by PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) and any such cheque is so delivered and paid.

In any such event, Corporation hereby agrees to immediately notify the Holder of such prohibition against Corporation redeeming all of the Retracted Shares.

4.8 STAMP OR OTHER TRANSFER TAXES

Upon any sale of Exchangeable Shares to PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) pursuant to the Exchange Right or the Automatic Exchange Rights, the share certificate or certificates representing PASW Common Stock to be delivered in connection with the payment of the total purchase price therefor shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Exchangeable Shares so sold or in such names as such Holder may otherwise direct in writing without charge to the holder of the Exchangeable Shares so sold, provided, however, that such Holder (a) shall pay (and neither PASW nor Corporation shall be required to pay) any documentary, stamp, transfer or other similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of such shares to a person other than such Holder or (b) shall have established to the satisfaction of PASW and Corporation that such taxes, if any, have been paid. PASW will cause each certificate representing such PASW Common Stock to bear the following legend:

PASW hereby represents, warrants and covenants that it has reserved for issuance and will at all times keep available, free from pre-emptive and other rights, out of its authorized and unissued capital stock such number of shares of PASW Common Stock as are now and may hereafter be required to enable and permit Corporation to meet its obligations hereunder, under the Support Agreement, under the Exchangeable Share Provisions and under any other security or commitment pursuant to which PASW may now or hereafter be required to issue shares of PASW Common Stock. PASW covenants that it will supply its transfer agent with duly executed share certificates for the purpose of completing the exercise from time to time of the Exchange Right and the Automatic Exchange Rights.

4.10 AUTOMATIC EXCHANGE ON LIQUIDATION OF PASW

(a) Each of the following events shall give rise to the automatic exchange of the Exchangeable Shares as provided in this Section 4.10 (each, a "Liquidation Event"):

(i) in the event of any determination by the Board of Directors of PASW to institute voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up proceedings with respect to PASW or to effect any other distribution of assets of PASW among its stockholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs; and

(ii) upon the earlier of (A) receipt by PASW of notice of and (B) PASW otherwise becoming aware of any threatened or instituted claim, suit, petition or other proceedings with respect to the involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of PASW or to effect any other distribution of assets of PASW among its stockholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs.

PASW will give the Holders written notice of a Liquidation Event described in subsection 4.10(a)(i) at least 30 days prior to the proposed effective date of such liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or other distribution. Such notice shall include a brief description of the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for shares of PASW Common Stock provided for in section 4.10(b) below.

(b) In order that the Holders will be able to participate on a pro rata basis with the holders of PASW Common Stock in the distribution of assets of PASW in connection with a Liquidation Event, on the fifth Business Day prior to the effective date (the "Liquidation Event Effective Date") of a Liquidation Event all of the then outstanding Exchangeable Shares shall be automatically exchanged for shares of PASW Common Stock. To effect such automatic exchange, PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) and the Holder shall exchange each Exchangeable Share outstanding on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date and held by Holders for an exercise price per share equal to (a) the Current Market Price of a share of PASW Common Stock on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date multiplied by the Exchange Ratio at that time, which shall be satisfied by PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) issuing to the Holder the number of shares of PASW Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio at that time plus (b) an additional amount equivalent to the full value of all dividends declared and unpaid on each such Exchangeable Share and all dividends declared on PASW Common Stock that have not been declared on such Exchangeable Shares in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions (provided that if the record date for such declared and unpaid dividends occurs on or after the day of closing of such exchange, the Exchange Consideration shall not include such additional amounts equivalent to such declared and unpaid dividends) less (c) any tax required to be deducted or withheld from the total Exchange Consideration by PASW. In connection with such automatic exchange, PASW will provide to the Holder an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the calculation of the Exchange Consideration for each Exchangeable Share.

(c) On the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, the closing of the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for PASW Common Stock shall be deemed to have occurred, and each Holder of Exchangeable Shares shall be deemed to have transferred to PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) all of the Holder’s right, title and interest in and to such Exchangeable Shares and shall cease to be a holder of such Exchangeable Shares and PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) shall issue to the Holder the shares of PASW Common Stock issuable upon the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for PASW Common Stock and shall deliver to the Holder a cheque for the balance, if any, of the total exercise price for such Exchangeable Shares without interest less any tax required to be deducted or withheld from the total Exchange Consideration by PASW. Concurrently with such holder ceasing to be a holder of Exchangeable Shares, the Holder shall be considered and deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the shares of PASW Common Stock issued to it pursuant to the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for PASW Common Stock and the certificates held by the Holder previously representing the Exchangeable Shares exchanged by the Holder with PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) pursuant to such automatic exchange shall thereafter be deemed to represent the shares of PASW Common Stock issued to the Holder by PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) pursuant to such automatic exchange. Upon the request of a Holder and the surrender by the Holder of Exchangeable Share certificates deemed to represent shares of PASW Common Stock, duly endorsed in blank and accompanied by such instruments of transfer as PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) may reasonably require, PASW (either directly or indirectly through one or more of its Permitted Subsidiaries) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder certificates representing the shares of PASW Common Stock of which the Holder is the holder.

(g) taking such other actions and doing such other things as are specifically provided in this Agreement.

In the exercise of such rights, powers and authorities the Trustee shall have (and is granted) such incidental and additional rights, powers and authority not in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement as the Trustee, acting in good faith and in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, may deem necessary, appropriate or desirable to effect the purpose of the Trust. Any exercise of such discretionary rights, powers and authorities by the Trustee shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons. For greater certainty, the Trustee shall have only those duties as are set out specifically in this Agreement.

The Trustee in exercising its rights, powers, duties and authorities hereunder shall act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Holders and shall exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent trustee would exercise in comparable circumstances.

The Trustee shall not be bound to give any notice or do or take any act, action or proceeding by virtue of the powers conferred on it hereby unless and until it shall be specifically required to do so under the terms hereof, nor shall the Trustee be required to take any notice of, or to do or to take any act, action or proceeding as a result of any default or breach of any provision hereunder, unless and until notified in writing of such default or breach, which notices shall distinctly specify the default or breach desired to be brought to the attention of the Trustee and in the absence of such notice the Trustee may for all purposes of this Agreement conclusively assume that no default or breach has been made in the observance or performance of any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or conditions contained herein.

6.2 NO CONFLICT OF INTEREST

The Trustee represents to Corporation and PASW that at the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement there exists no material conflict of interest in the role of the Trustee as a fiduciary hereunder and the role of the Trustee in any other capacity. The Trustee shall, within 90 days after it becomes aware that such a material conflict of interest exists, either eliminate such material conflict of interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in Article 10 hereof. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section 6.2, the Trustee has such a material conflict of interest, the validity and enforceability of this Agreement shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only of the existence of such material conflict of interest. If the Trustee contravenes the foregoing provisions of this section 6.2, any interested party may apply to the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta for an order that the Trustee be replaced as trustee hereunder.

6.3 DEALINGS WITH TRANSFER AGENTS, REGISTRARS, ETC.

Corporation and PASW irrevocably authorize the Trustee, from time to time, to:

(a) consult, communicate and otherwise deal with the respective registrars and transfer agents, and with any such subsequent registrar or transfer agent, of the Exchangeable Shares and PASW Common Stock; and

(b) requisition, from time to time, from any such registrar or transfer agent any information readily available from the records maintained by it which the Trustee may reasonably require for the discharge of its duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

PASW irrevocably authorizes its registrar and transfer agent to comply with all such requests.

6.4 BOOKS AND RECORDS

The Trustee shall keep available for inspection by PASW and Corporation, at the Trustee’s principal office in Calgary, Alberta, correct and complete books and records of account relating to the Trustee’s actions under this Agreement, including without limitation all information relating to mailings and instructions to and from the Holders and all transactions pursuant to the Voting Rights for the term of this Agreement.

6.5 INCOME TAX RETURNS AND REPORTS

The Trustee shall, to the extent necessary, prepare and file on behalf of the Trust appropriate United States and Canadian income tax returns and any other returns or reports as may be acquired by applicable law. In connection therewith, the Trustee may obtain the advice and assistance of such experts as the Trustee may consider necessary or advisable. If requested by the Trustee, PASW and Corporation shall retain such experts for purposes of providing such advice and assistance.

6.6 INDEMNIFICATION PRIOR TO CERTAIN ACTIONS BY TRUSTEE

The Trustee shall exercise any or all of the rights, duties, powers or authorities vested in it by this Agreement at the request, order or direction of any Holder upon such Holder furnishing to the Trustee reasonable funding, security and indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by the Trustee herein or thereby, provided that no Holder shall be obligated to furnish to the Trustee any such funding, security or indemnity in connection with the exercise by the Trustee of any of its rights, duties, powers and authorities with respect to the Voting Share pursuant to Article 3 hereof, subject to Section 6.15 hereof.

None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the exercise of any of its rights, powers, duties or authorities unless funded, given funds, security and indemnified as aforesaid.

6.7 ACTIONS BY HOLDERS

No Holder shall have the right to institute any action, suit or proceeding or to exercise any other remedy authorized by this Agreement for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights or for the execution of any trust or power hereunder unless the Holder has requested the Trustee to take or institute such action, suit or proceeding and furnished the Trustee with the funding, security and indemnity referred to in section 6.6 hereof and the Trustee shall have failed to act within a reasonable time thereafter. In such case, but not otherwise, the Holder shall be entitled to take proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction such as the Trustee might have taken, it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights hereby created by any such action, or to enforce any right hereunder or under the Voting Rights, except subject to the conditions and in the manner herein provided, and that all powers and trusts hereunder shall be exercised and all proceedings at law shall be instituted, had and maintained by the Trustee, except only as herein provided, and in any event for the equal benefit of all Holders.

6.8 RELIANCE UPON DECLARATIONS

The Trustee shall not be considered to be in contravention of any of its rights, powers, duties and authorities hereunder if, when required, it acts and relies in good faith upon lists, mailing labels, notices, statutory declarations, certificates, opinions, reports or other papers or documents furnished pursuant to the provisions hereof or required by the Trustee to be furnished to it in the exercise of its rights, powers, duties and authorities hereunder and such lists, mailing labels, notices, statutory declarations, certificates, opinions, reports or other papers or documents comply with the provisions of section 6.9 hereof, if applicable, and with any other applicable provisions of this Agreement.
