The parties hereto acknowledge that the [Trustee] [Administrator] is entering into this agreement solely [in its capacity as Trustee] [on behalf] of the Trust and the obligations of the Trust hereunder shall not be personally binding upon the [Trustee] [Administrator] or any of the Unitholders of the Trust and that any recourse against the Trust or any Unitholder in any manner in respect of any indebtedness, obligation or liability of the Trust arising hereunder or arising in connection herewith or from the matters to which this agreement relates, if any, including without limitation claims based on negligence or otherwise tortious behaviour, shall be limited to, and satisfied only out of, the Trust Fund as defined in the trust indenture dated as of January 5, 2006, as amended from time to time.

The omission of such a provision from any such written instrument shall not operate to impose personal liability on the Trustee, the Corporation or any Unitholder. If, notwithstanding this provision, the Trustee, the Corporation or any Unitholder shall be held liable to any person by reason of the omission of such statement from any such agreement, undertaking or obligation, the Trustee, the Corporation or Unitholder shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement out of the Trust Fund to the full extent of such liability.

2.8 Head Office of Trust

The head office of the Trust hereby created shall be located at Suite 1900, 255 — 5^th Avenue S.W. Calgary, Alberta, T2P 3G6 or at such other place or places in Canada as the Trustee may from time to time designate in writing.

ARTICLE 3
ISSUE AND SALE OF TRUST UNITS

3.1 Nature and Ranking of Trust Units

(a) The beneficial interests in the Trust shall be divided into two classes of trust units, described and designated as Ordinary Trust Units and Special Trust Units, which shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the limitations, restrictions and conditions set out herein; and the interest of each Unitholder shall be determined by the number of Ordinary Trust Units or Special Trust Units registered in the name of the Unitholder.

(b) Each Ordinary Trust Unit shall entitle the holder or holders thereof to one vote at any meeting of the Unitholders and each Special Trust Unit shall entitle the holder or holders thereof to one-half of one vote at any meeting of the Unitholders.

(c) The 1,000 Trust Units of the Trust originally issued on settlement of the original Trust Indenture to the Settlor, are and shall be deemed to be 1,000 Ordinary Trust Units.

3.2 Authorized Number of Trust Units

The aggregate number of Ordinary Trust Units, Special Trust Units and Special Voting Units that are authorized and may be issued hereunder is unlimited.

3.3 No Fractional Trust Units

Fractions of Trust Units shall not be issued, except pursuant to distributions of additional Trust Units to all Unitholders pursuant to Section 5.9.

3.4 Offerings of Trust Units and Indebtedness

(a) Trust Units, including rights, warrants, special warrants, subscription receipts or other securities to purchase, to convert into or exchange into Trust Units, may be created, issued, sold and delivered pursuant to Offering Documents or otherwise, as the case may be, on terms and conditions and at such time or times as the board of directors of the Corporation may determine.

(b) The board of directors of the Corporation may authorize the creation and issuance of debentures, notes and other evidences of indebtedness of the Trust (including rights, warrants, subscription warrants, subscription receipts or other securities to purchase, or convert into or exchange into, debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness) which debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness may be convertible or exchangeable into Trust Units and which may be created and issued from time to time on such terms and conditions, to such persons and for such consideration and at such time or times as the Corporation may determine.

3.5 Trust Units Fully Paid and Non-Assessable

Trust Units shall be issued only when fully paid in money or property or past service, provided that property may include indebtedness, a promissory note or other promise to pay given by the allottee. The Unitholders shall not thereafter be required to make any further contribution to the Trust with respect to such Trust Units; provided however that the Trust Units to be issued under an Offering may be issued for consideration payable in instalments and that the Trust may take security over such Trust Units to be issued under such an Offering as security for the payment of unpaid instalments.

3.6 No Conversion, Retraction, Redemption or Pre-Emptive Rights

No person shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to subscribe for or purchase any Trust Unit. Except as set forth in Article 18, there are no conversion, retraction, redemption or pre-emptive rights attaching to the Trust Units.

3.7 Consolidation of Trust Units

Immediately after any pro rata distribution of additional Trust Units to all Unitholders pursuant to Section 5.5 or Section 5.9, the number of outstanding Trust Units will be consolidated such that each Unitholder will hold after the consolidation the same number of Trust Units as the Unitholder held before the distribution of additional Trust Units. In such case, each Trust Unit Certificate representing a number of Trust Units prior to the distribution of additional Trust Units is deemed to represent the same number of Trust Units after the distribution of additional Trust Units and the consolidation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where tax is required to be withheld in respect of a Unitholder’s share of the distribution: (i) the consolidation of the Trust Units held by such Unitholder will result in such Unitholder holding that number of Trust Units equal to the number of Trust Units held by such Unitholder prior to the distribution minus the number of Trust Units withheld on account of withholding taxes payable by the Unitholder in respect of the distribution; and (ii) the consolidation shall not apply to any Trust Units so withheld. Any Trust Units so withheld shall either be delivered to the appropriate taxation authority or sold, in which case the net proceeds shall be remitted to the appropriate taxation authority. Such Unitholder will be required to surrender the Trust Unit Certificates, if any, representing such Unitholder’s original Trust Units, in exchange for a

Trust Unit Certificate representing such Unitholder’s post-consolidation Trust Units. Such consolidation shall not constitute a redemption or cancellation of the Trust Units so consolidated and a Unitholder whose Trust Units are consolidated shall not receive, and shall not be entitled to receive, any proceeds of disposition in respect thereof.

3.8 Non-Resident Unitholders

It is in the best interest of Unitholders that the Trust always qualify as a “mutual fund trust” under the Tax Act. Accordingly, in order to ensure the maintenance of such status:

(a) The Administrator shall:

(i) prior to the completion of any transaction involving the acquisition by the Trust of any Subsequent Investment;

(ii) prior to any material modification to the Trust Fund other than as contemplated by paragraph (i);

(iii) promptly following any proposed amendment to paragraph 132(7)(a) of the Tax Act or the publication of any administrative bulletin or other notice of interpretation relating to the interpretation or application of such section; or

(iv) otherwise at any time when requested by the Trustee,

obtain an opinion of Counsel confirming whether the Trust is, at the date thereof and following such transaction or event (which in the case of paragraph (iii) shall mean the coming into effect of the amendment or change of interpretation), entitled to rely on paragraph 132(7)(a) of the Tax Act (or any successor provision thereto) for purposes of qualifying as a “mutual fund trust” under the Tax Act.

(b) If at any time the board of directors of the Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, or becomes aware, pursuant to Section 3.9(a) or otherwise, that the Trust’s ability to continue to rely on paragraph 132(7)(a) of the Tax Act (or any successor provision thereto) for purposes of qualifying as a “mutual fund trust” thereunder is in jeopardy, then forthwith after such determination:

(i) it shall be the sole responsibility of the Administrator to monitor the holdings by Non-Residents; and

(ii) the Administrator shall take such steps as are necessary or desirable to ensure that the Trust is not maintained primarily for the benefit of Non-Residents or that the Trust is otherwise able to continue to qualify as a “mutual fund trust” for purposes of the Tax Act.

(c) The Administrator may, at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, request that the Trustee make reasonable efforts, as practicable in the circumstances, to obtain declarations as to beneficial ownership under Section 7.12, perform residency searches of Unitholder and beneficial Unitholder mailing address lists and take such other steps specified by the Administrator, at the cost of the Trust, to determine or estimate as best as possible the residence of the beneficial owners of Trust Units.

(d) If at any time the board of directors of the Administrator, in its sole discretion, determines that it is in the best interest of the Trust, the Administrator, notwithstanding the ability of the Trust to continue to rely on paragraph 132(7)(a) of the Tax Act for the purpose of qualifying as a “mutual fund trust” under the Tax Act, may:

(i) require the Trustee to refuse to accept a subscription for Trust Units from, or issue or register a transfer of Trust Units to, a person unless the person provides a declaration to the Administrator pursuant to Section 7.12 that the Trust Units to be issued or transferred to such person will not when issued or transferred be beneficially owned by a Non-Resident;

(ii) to the extent practicable in the circumstances, send a notice to registered holders of Trust Units that are beneficially owned by Non-Residents, chosen in inverse order to the order of acquisition or registration of such Trust Units or in such other manner as the Administrator may consider equitable and practicable, requiring them to sell their Trust Units that are beneficially owned by Non-Residents or a specified portion thereof within a specified period of not less than 60 days. If the Unitholders receiving such notice have not sold the specified number of such Trust Units or provided the Administrator with satisfactory evidence that such Trust Units are not beneficially owned by Non-Residents within such period, the Administrator may, on behalf of such registered Unitholder, sell such Trust Units and, in the interim, suspend the voting and distribution rights attached to such Trust Units and make any distribution in respect of such Trust Units by depositing such amount in a separate bank account in a Canadian chartered bank (net of any applicable taxes). Any sale may be made on any stock exchange on which the Trust Units are then listed and, upon such sale, the affected holders shall cease to be holders of Trust Units so disposed of and their rights shall be limited to receiving the net proceeds of sale, and any distribution in respect thereof deposited as aforesaid, net of applicable taxes and costs of sale, upon surrender of the Certificates representing such Trust Units;

(iii) de-list the Trust Units from any non-Canadian stock exchange; and

(iv) take such other actions as the board of directors of the Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, are appropriate in the circumstances that will reduce or limit the number of Trust Units held by Non-Resident Unitholders to ensure that the Trust is not maintained primarily for the benefit of Non-Residents.

(e) None of the Trust, the Trustee, the Administrator or the Corporation shall have any liability for amounts received pursuant to sales of Trust Units made pursuant to Section 3.9(d)(ii). Except as specifically set out herein, none of the Trust, the Trustee, the Administrator or the Corporation shall be bound to do or take any proceeding or action with respect to this Section 3.9 by virtue of the powers conferred on it under this Trust Indenture. None of the Trust, the Trustee, the Administrator or the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of any violation of this Section 3.9 unless and until it has been given written notice of such violation and shall be required to act only as required by this Trust Indenture and upon an indemnity satisfactory to such party being provided by the Trust. None of the Trust, the Trustee, the Administrator or the Corporation shall be required to actively monitor the Non-Resident holdings of the Trust. It is acknowledged that none of the Trust, the Trustee, the Administrator or the Corporation can monitor the Non-Resident holders of the Trust Units given that many of the Trust Units are registered in the name of depositories and other non-beneficial holders. Each of the Trustee, the Administrator and the Corporation are entitled to rely on CDS Participant lists, ADP geographic breakdowns and other information received by them from the Transfer Agent in assessing the Non-Resident ownership of the Trust notwithstanding that such information may be incomplete or out-of-date.

None of the Trust, the Trustee, the Administrator or the Corporation shall be liable for any violation of the Non-Resident ownership restriction in this Section 3.9 that may occur during the term of the Trust.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Indenture, Non-Resident Unitholders, whether registered holders or beneficial holders of Trust Units, shall not be entitled to vote in respect of any Special Resolutions to amend this Section 3.9.

3.9 Special Voting Units

In addition to the Trust Units, there may be issued Special Voting Units entitling the holders thereof to attend meetings of Unitholders and to such number of votes at meetings of Unitholders as may be prescribed by the board of directors of the Administrator in the resolution authorizing the issuance of any such Special Voting Units. Except for the right to attend and vote at meetings of the Unitholders, the Special Voting Units shall not confer upon the holders thereof any other rights; and for greater certainty, the holders of Special

Voting Units shall not be entitled to any distributions of any nature whatsoever from the Trust or have any beneficial interest in any assets of the Trust on termination of the Trust.

3.10 Purchase for Cancellation

The Trust may from time to time purchase for cancellation some or all of the Trust Units (or other securities of the Trust which may be issued and outstanding from time to time) in the market or upon any recognized stock exchange on which such Trust Units are traded or pursuant to tenders received by the Trust upon request for tenders addressed to all holders of record of Trust Units.

3.11 Re-Purchase of Initial Trust Units by Trust

Immediately after the Closing, the Trust will repurchase the initial Trust Units from the Settlor, and the Settlor shall sell the initial Trust Units to the Trust for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000 and, upon the completion of such purchase and sale, the initial Trust Units shall be cancelled and shall no longer be outstanding for any of the purposes of this Indenture.

ARTICLE 4

(e) making loans or other advances to any Affiliate of the Trust or the Corporation;

(f) acquiring or investing in Royalties and making any deferred royalty purchase payments which may be required with respect to such Royalties or the NPIs; provided however that in no event shall the Trust acquire or invest in any Royalties that constitute an interest in land or a covenant running with the properties with respect to which such Royalties relate;

4.3 Other Investment Restrictions

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture, under no circumstances shall the Trustee acquire any investment that would result in the Trust not being considered either a “unit trust” or a “mutual fund trust” for purposes of the Tax Act. The Trustee may consult with and receive direction from the Administrator with respect to any investment to ensure compliance with this provision and may, prior to any investment, request the Administrator obtain an opinion of Counsel confirming that the Trust will continue to maintain its status as a “unit trust” and a “mutual trust” for the purposes of the Tax Act.

ARTICLE 5
DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1 Determination of Distributable Cash of the Trust

In this Article 5, the “Distributable Cash of the Trust” for the period ending on a Distribution Record Date shall be the amount calculated, for the period commencing immediately following the preceding Distribution Record Date (or, for the first Distribution Record Date, the period commencing on the date hereof) and ending on such Distribution Record Date, on the following basis:

(a) interest income on the Notes and any other interest income shall be included in Distributable Cash of the Trust on an accrual basis (to the extent that it is or will reasonably be expected to be received by the Payment Date) and shall accrue from day to day;

(b) any amounts received or reasonably anticipated to be received before the Payment Date pursuant to any Royalties, the NPIs, any interest or other income from Permitted Investments, and ARC received by the Trust shall be included in Distributable Cash of the Trust;

(c) any dividends, distributions or interest or principal repayments on securities of any Affiliate of the Trust shall be included in Distributable Cash of the Trust when received, or reasonably anticipated to be received before the Payment Date;

(d) all other income received or reasonably anticipated to be received before the Payment Date by the Trust since the immediately preceding Distribution Record Date from investments of the Trust Fund shall be included in Distributable Cash of the Trust; and

(e) all expenses and liabilities of the Trust which have been incurred or may reasonably be anticipated to be incurred and any other amounts required by law or hereunder to be deducted, withheld or paid with respect

to the Trust (including taxes) shall be deducted in computing Distributable Cash of the Trust, including the following:

(i) Debt Service Charges of the Trust;

(ii) non-deductible Crown royalties that have been reimbursed by the Trust pursuant to any Royalty Agreement or the NPI Agreements;

(iii) the aggregate of all cash amounts paid in respect of the redemption of Trust Units during such period of time; and

(iv) any amount, in addition to those amounts set forth above, which the Administrator or the Trustee may reasonably consider to be necessary to provide for the payment of any liabilities which have been or will be incurred by the Trust, including any tax liability of the Trust.

Items of income or expense not provided for above or in Section 5.4 shall be included in such calculation on such basis as may be considered appropriate by the Trustee upon the recommendation of the Administrator.

5.2 Distributable Cash of the Trust to Become Payable

The Trustee may, upon the recommendation of the Administrator, on or before any Distribution Record Date, declare payable to the Unitholders on that Distribution Record Date all or any part of the Distributable Cash of the Trust for the period ending on that Distribution Record Date determined in accordance with Section 5.1. The share of each Unitholder in the amount so payable shall be the Pro Rata Share of such Unitholder determined as at that Distribution Record Date; and subject to Section 5.8, such amount shall be payable on that Distribution Record Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of any Distributable Cash of the Trust that is determined by the Trustee to be required to be retained by the Trust in order to pay any tax liability of the Trust shall not be payable by the Trust to Unitholders.

5.3 Computation of Income and Net Realized Capital Gains

(a) The income of the Trust (the “Net Income”) for any taxation year of the Trust shall be the income for such year computed in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act, other than paragraphs 82(1)(b) and subsection 104(6) thereof, regarding the calculation of income for the purposes of determining the “taxable income” of the Trust; provided, however, that capital gains and capital losses shall be excluded from the computation of Net Income.

(b) The net realized capital gains of the Trust (the “Net Realized Capital Gains”) for any taxation year of the Trust shall be determined as the amount, if any, by which the aggregate of the capital gains of the Trust realized in such year exceeds (i) the aggregate of the capital losses of the Trust realized in such year, and (ii) each amount determined by the Corporation in respect of any such net capital loss for a prior taxation year which the Trust is permitted by the Tax Act to deduct in computing the taxable income of the Trust for such year.

(c) Notwithstanding subsections 5.3(a) and (b), Net Income and Net Realized Capital Gains shall not include any income (“Redemption Income”) or capital gains (“Redemption Gains”), respectively, which are realized by the Trust, in accordance with the Tax Act, on a distribution of Trust property to a Unitholder pursuant to an in specie redemption of the Unitholder’s Trust Units under Section 18.5.

5.4 Net Realized Capital Gains to Become Payable

In addition to the distributions which are made payable to Unitholders pursuant to Section 5.2, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, in respect of a distribution period, declare a distribution to be payable, to holders of Trust Units of record as at the close of business on the Distribution Record Date for such distribution period, out

of Net Income, Net Realized Capital Gains, the capital of the Trust or otherwise, in any year, in such amount or amounts, and on such dates as the Trustee may determine.

5.5 Net Income and Net Realized Capital Gains, Redemption Income and Redemption Gains for Income Tax Purposes to Become Payable

So as to ensure the allocation and distribution, to holders of Trust Units, of all of the Net Income, Net Realized Capital Gains and any other applicable amounts so that the Trust will not have any liability for tax under the Tax Act in any year, the amount, if any, by which the Net Income and Net Realized Capital Gains exceed the aggregate of:

(a) such part of the taxable capital gains of the Trust for the calendar year required to be retained by the Trust to maximize its capital gains refund for such year, unless any administrator has given written notice to the Trustee that this clause is not to apply to the Trust for that year by the end of the year; and

(b) any amount that became payable or was deemed to become payable by the Trustee during the calendar year to Unitholders on the Trust Units (other than amounts that became payable to Unitholders on the redemption of their Trust Units);

shall, without any further actions on the part of the Trustee, be payable to holders of Trust Units of record as of the close of business on the last Distribution Record Date in such year. The share of each Unitholder in the amount so payable shall be the Pro Rata Share of such Unitholder determined as at the end of such year.

In addition to the distributions which are made payable to Unitholders otherwise hereunder, the Trust shall allocate any Redemption Income and Redemption Gains realized by the Trust in connection with the redemption of Trust Units of a particular Unitholder pursuant to Article 18, to that Unitholder, so that an amount equal to such Redemption Income and Redemption Gains shall be allocated to and shall be treated as an amount paid to the redeeming Unitholder. In addition, one-half (or any other proportion that may be provided for from time to time under section 38 of the Tax Act) of such Redemption Gains shall be designated as taxable capital gains of that Unitholder under subsection 104(21) of the Tax Act, and any portion of the Redemption Income and Redemption Gains in respect of that Unitholder as may be income from a source in a country other than Canada, within the meaning of subsection 104(22) of the Tax Act, shall be designated as that Unitholder’s income from that source in accordance with that subsection.

Distributions or amounts payable to Unitholders pursuant to this Article 5 shall be deemed to be distributions of Net Income, Net Realized Capital Gains, Redemption Income and Redemption Gains, trust capital or other items in such amounts as the Trustee shall, in its discretion, determine. For greater certainty, it is hereby declared that any distribution of Net Realized Capital Gains and Redemption Gains shall include the non-taxable portion of the capital gains of the Trust which are comprised in such distribution.

Any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 5.5 may, at the option of the Trustee, be paid through a distribution of additional Trust Units having a value equal to the amount payable. For the purposes of this Section 5.5, the value of the additional Trust Units issued shall be determined using the closing trading price (or, if there was no trade, the average of the last bid and the last ask prices) of the Trust Units on December 31 (or, if December 31 is not a Business Day, on the last preceding Business Day) of the year of distribution on the principal stock exchange where the Trust Units are listed or, if not so listed, such other value as the Trustee shall determine.

5.6 Other Amounts

Any amounts not otherwise payable to Unitholders prior to the end of a particular fiscal year of the Trust pursuant to the provisions of Article 5 may be declared by the Trustee, upon the recommendation of the Corporation, to be payable to Unitholders in the same manner as provided for in Section 5.2.

5.7 Enforcement

Each Unitholder shall have the right to enforce payment of any amount payable to the Unitholder under this Article 5 (or a distribution of additional Trust Units under Section 5.9, if applicable) at the time the amount became payable. Absent a demand from a Unitholder to enforce payment, such amount shall be paid to Unitholders on the Payment Date specified in Section 5.8.

5.8 Payment of Amounts Payable

Amounts payable to Unitholders pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 5.4 may be paid by the Trust on any date (the “Payment Date”) specified by the Trustee as the applicable Distribution Record Date, or a day within 30 days after the applicable Distribution Record Date and in the same calendar year.

5.9 Distribution of Additional Trust Units

Where after the last Distribution Record Date and on or before the next Distribution Record Date an amount or amounts of cash has or have been or is or are being paid under Section 18.4 in respect of Trust Units tendered for redemption, the distribution payable to Unitholders on such next Distribution Record Date may include a distribution of additional Trust Units having a value equal to the aggregate of such amounts, in which case the amount of cash to be distributed on the distribution shall be reduced by the aggregate of such amounts. In addition, if on any Distribution Record Date the Trust does not have cash in an amount sufficient to pay the full distribution to be made on such Distribution Record Date in cash, the distribution payable to Unitholders on such Distribution Record Date may, at the option of the Trustee, include a distribution of additional Trust Units having a value equal to the cash shortfall, in which case the amount of cash to be distributed on the distribution shall be reduced by the amount of such cash shortfall. For the purposes of this Section 5.9, the value of the additional Trust Units to be issued shall be determined using the closing trading price (or if there was no trade, the average of the last bid and the last ask prices) of the Trust Units on the Distribution Record Date (or, if the Distribution Record Date is not a Business Day, on the last Business Day preceding the Distribution Record Date) on the principal stock exchange where the Trust Units are listed or, if not so listed, such other value as the Trustee shall determine.

5.10 Withholding Taxes

For greater certainty, in the event that withholding taxes are exigible on any distributions or redemption amounts distributed under this Indenture, the Trustee shall withhold the withholding taxes required and shall promptly remit such taxes to the appropriate taxing authority. In the event that withholding taxes are exigible on any distributions or redemption amounts distributed under this Indenture and the Trustee is, or was, unable to withhold taxes from a particular distribution to a Unitholder or has not otherwise withheld taxes on past distributions to the Unitholder, the Trustee shall be permitted to withhold amounts from other distributions to such Unitholder to satisfy the Trustee’s withholding tax obligations.

5.11 Character of Distributions and Designations

In accordance with and to the extent permitted by Tax Act, the Trustee in each year shall make designations in respect of the amounts payable to Unitholders for such amounts that the Trustee considers to be reasonable in all of the circumstances, including, without limitation, designations relating to taxable dividends received by the Trust in the year on shares of taxable Canadian corporations, net capital gains realized by the Trust in the year and foreign source income of the Trust for the year, as well as elections under subsections 104(13.1) and/or (13.2) of the Tax Act that income be taxed to the Trust, rather than to the Unitholders. Distributions payable to Unitholders pursuant to this Article 5 shall be deemed to be distributions of Net Income of the Trust, Net Realized Capital Gains, Redemption Income, Redemption Gains, trust capital or other items in such amounts as the Trustee shall, in its absolute discretion, determine.

ARTICLE 6
APPOINTMENT, RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF TRUSTEE

6.1 Trustee’s Term of Office

Subject to Sections 6.2 and 6.3, Computershare Trust Company of Canada is hereby appointed as Trustee hereunder for an initial term of office which shall expire upon the conclusion of the second annual meeting of Unitholders. The Unitholders shall, at the second annual meeting of the Unitholders, reappoint, or appoint a successor to the Trustee, and thereafter, the Unitholders shall reappoint or appoint a successor to the Trustee at the annual meeting of Unitholders two years following the reappointment or appointment of the successor to the Trustee. Any such reappointment or appointment shall be made either by an Ordinary Resolution at such meeting of Unitholders or shall be made in the manner set out in Section 6.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Trustee is not reappointed at the meeting of Unitholders held immediately before the term of office of such Trustee expires and if no successor to such Trustee is appointed at that meeting, such Trustee shall continue to hold the office of Trustee under this Indenture until a successor has been appointed under Section 6.4.

6.2 Resignation of Trustee

The Trustee may resign from the office of trustee hereunder on giving not less than 60 days’ notice in writing to the Corporation; provided that no such resignation shall be effective until (i) the appointment of, and acceptance of such appointment by, a new Trustee in the place of the resigning Trustee has been made in the manner set out in Section 6.4, and (ii) the legal and valid assumption by the new Trustee of all obligations of the Trustee related hereto in the same capacities as the resigning Trustee.

6.3 Removal of Trustee

The Trustee shall be removed by notice in writing delivered by the Administrator to the Trustee in the event that, at any time, the Trustee shall no longer satisfy all of the requirements in Section 6.6, or shall be declared bankrupt or insolvent, or shall enter into liquidation, whether compulsory or voluntary (and not being merely a voluntary liquidation for the purposes of amalgamation or reconstruction), or if the material assets of the Trustee shall otherwise become liable to seizure or confiscation by any public or governmental authority, or if the Trustee shall otherwise become incapable of performing, or shall fail in any material respect to perform its responsibilities under this Indenture (after receiving five Business Days notice of such failure to perform and an opportunity to cure such failure to perform during such notice period, and after taking account of any delegation of responsibilities and duties contemplated by this Indenture and the Administration Agreement) or as a result of a material increase in the fees charged by the Trustee. No decision to remove a Trustee under this Section 6.3 shall become effective until (i) approved by a Special Resolution at a meeting of Unitholders duly called for that purpose, (ii) the appointment of, and acceptance of such appointment by, a new Trustee under Section 6.4 in the place of the Trustee to be removed, and (iii) the legal and valid assumption by the new Trustee of all obligations of the Trustee related hereto in the same capacities as the resigning Trustee.

6.4 Appointment of Successor to Trustee

(a) A successor Trustee to a Trustee which has been removed by a Special Resolution of Unitholders under Section 6.3, or which has given notice of resignation under Section 6.2, shall be appointed by an Ordinary Resolution at a meeting of Unitholders duly called for that purpose, provided the successor meets the requirements of Section 6.6.

(b) Subject to Section 6.6, the Administrator may appoint a successor to any Trustee which has been removed by a Special Resolution of the Unitholders under Section 6.3, or which has not been reappointed under Section 6.1, and may appoint a successor to any Trustee if the Unitholders fail to do so at such meeting, which has given notice of resignation under Section 6.2.

No appointment of any successor Trustee shall be effective until such successor Trustee shall have complied with the provisions of Section 6.2(ii).

6.5 Failure to Appoint Successor

In the event that no successor Trustee to a Trustee who has delivered a notice of resignation in accordance with Section 6.2, or who has received notice of removal in accordance with Section 6.3, has accepted an appointment within 120 days after the receipt by the Administrator of the notice of resignation, or 60 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of removal, the Trustee, the Administrator or any Unitholder may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor to the Trustee. The Trustee shall be reimbursed by the Trust for all reasonable costs and expenses of the Trustee relating to obtaining court approval of a successor.

For greater certainty, a Unitholder or any one of the joint Unitholders may designate and the Trustee may accept that any payment required to be made hereunder shall be made by deposit to an account of such Unitholder or to a joint account of such Unitholder and any other person or in the case of joint registered Unitholders to an account of joint registered Unitholders or to an account of any one of the joint registered Unitholders. A cheque or bank draft shall, unless the joint registered Unitholders otherwise direct, be made payable to the order of all of the said joint registered Unitholders, and if more than one address appears on the books of the Trust in respect of such joint unitholding, the cheque or bank draft or payment in other acceptable manner as aforesaid may be sent to the address of any one of the joint registered Unitholders whose name and address appears on the books of the Trust. All payments made in the aforesaid manner shall satisfy and be a valid and binding discharge of all liability of the Trustee or the Trust for the amount so required to be paid unless the cheque or bank draft is not paid at par on presentation at Calgary, Alberta, or at any other place where it is by its terms payable. In the event of non-receipt of any such cheque or bank draft by the person to whom it was mailed, the Trustee on proof of the non-receipt and upon satisfactory indemnity being given to it and to the Trust, shall issue to the person a replacement cheque or bank draft for a like amount.

The receipt, by the registered Unitholder, of any payment not mailed or paid in accordance with this Section 7.17 shall nonetheless be a valid and binding discharge to the Trust and to the Trustee for any payment made in respect of the registered Trust Units, and if several persons are registered as joint registered Unitholders or, in consequence of the death, bankruptcy or incapacity of a Unitholder, one or several persons are entitled so to be registered in accordance with this Indenture, receipt of payment by any one of them shall be a valid and binding discharge to the Trust and to the Trustee for any such payment.

8.4 Acceptance of Delegation

The Administrator accepts the delegations in this Article 8 and agrees that, in respect of such matters, it shall carry out its functions honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Trust and the Unitholders and, in connection therewith, shall exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent trustee would exercise in comparable circumstances. The Administrator may, and if directed by the Corporation in writing, the Trustee shall, execute any agreement on behalf of the Trust as the Administrator shall have authorized within the scope of any authority delegated to it hereunder or under the Administration Agreement.

(b) any and all agreements relating to the Plan of Arrangement and the Trust Reorganization and any document ancillary or similar thereto required to be signed by the Trust from time to time.

8.6 Liability of Trustee

The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any matters delegated to the Administrator hereunder or under any of the Material Contracts, and the Trustee, in relying upon the Administrator and in entering into the Material Contracts, shall: (a) have no duty to supervise or investigate the Administrator in respect of those matters delegated to the Administrator hereunder or under any Material Contracts, including in relation to any amendment of a Material Contract, unless and until it receives a notice of default under Section 8.7; (b) be deemed to have complied with its obligations under Section 7.5; and (c) be entitled to the benefit of the indemnities, limitations of liability and other protection provisions provided for herein.

The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any matters provided for in this Indenture or required by the Trustee to be completed pursuant to the Trust Reorganization, including the execution and delivery of any documents, or the entering into of the Administration Agreement and in doing so, shall be deemed to have complied with its obligations under Section 7.5 and shall be entitled to the benefit of the indemnities, limitations of liability and other protection provisions provided for herein.

8.7 Compliance

The Administrator shall be required to notify the Trustee of any material defaults hereunder or under the Administration Agreement of which it becomes aware, and to provide an annual compliance certificate in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, acting reasonably, with respect to the satisfaction of its obligations under this Indenture and the Administration Agreement.

ARTICLE 9
AMENDMENT

9.1 Amendment

Except as specifically provided otherwise herein, the provisions of this Indenture may only be amended by the Trustee with the consent of the Unitholders by Special Resolution.

Any of the provisions of this Indenture may be amended by the Trustee and the Corporation at any time or times, without the consent, approval or ratification of any of the Unitholders or any other person for the purpose of:

(e) removing or curing any conflicts or inconsistencies between the provisions of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture, any Administration Agreement and any other agreement of the Trust or any Offering Document with respect to the Trust, or any applicable law or regulation of any jurisdiction, provided that in the opinion of the Trustee the rights of the Trustee and of the Unitholders are not prejudiced thereby;

(f) providing for, or amending the provisions for, the electronic delivery by the Trust to Unitholders of documents relating to the Trust (including annual and quarterly reports, including financial statements, notices of Unitholder meetings and information circulars and proxy related materials) at such time as applicable securities laws have been amended to permit such electronic delivery in place of normal delivery procedures, provided that such amendments to the Indenture are not contrary to or do not conflict with such laws;

9.2 Amendments Prior to Trust Reorganization

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.1, the provisions of this Indenture may be amended by the Trustee and the Corporation and the Settlor from time to time without the consent, approval or ratification of any of the Unitholders or any other person at any time prior to or on the Date of Closing, including, without limitation, any amendments necessary or advisable to exclude the Settlor as a party to this Indenture.

ARTICLE 10
MEETINGS OF UNITHOLDERS

10.1 Annual and Special Meetings of Unitholders

Annual meetings of the Unitholders shall be called by the Trustee, commencing in 2006, on a day, at a time and at a place to be set by the Administrator. The business transacted at such meetings shall include the transaction of such business as Unitholders may be entitled to vote upon as hereinafter provided in this Article 10, or as the Administrator may determine. Special meetings of the Unitholders may be called at any time by the Administrator and shall be called by the Trustee upon a written request of Unitholders holding in the aggregate not less than 20% of the Trust Units then outstanding (and for this purpose, holders of any issued Special Voting Units shall be regarded as representing outstanding Trust Units equivalent in number to the votes attached to such Special Voting Units and for which such holders have a direction to vote), such request specifying the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is to be called. Meetings of Unitholders shall be held in the City of Calgary, or at such other place as the Administrator shall designate. The Chairman of any annual or special meeting shall be a person designated by the Administrator for the purpose of such meeting except that, on the motion of any Unitholder, any person may be elected as Chairman by a majority of the votes cast at the meeting instead of such designated person or in the event that no person shall be designated by the Administrator.

10.2 Notice of Meetings

Notice of all meetings of Unitholders shall be given by unregistered mail postage prepaid addressed to each Unitholder at his registered address, mailed at least 21 days and not more than 50 days before the meeting. Such notice shall set out the time when, and the place where, such meeting is to be held and shall specify the nature of the business to be transacted at such meeting in sufficient detail to permit a Unitholder to form a reasoned judgment thereon, together with the text of any resolution in substantially final form proposed to be passed. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice. The accidental omission to give notice to or the non-receipt of such notice by the Unitholders shall not invalidate any resolution passed at any such meeting.

10.3 Quorum

At any meeting of the Unitholders, subject as hereinafter provided, a quorum shall consist of two or more persons either present in person or represented by proxy and representing in the aggregate not less than 5% of the outstanding Trust Units. For the purposes of determining such quorum, the holders of any issued Special Voting Units who are present at the meeting shall be regarded as representing outstanding Trust Units equivalent in number to the votes attaching to such Special Voting Units and for which such holders have a direction to vote. If a quorum is not present at the appointed place on the date for which the meeting is called within one half hour after the time fixed for the holding of such meeting, the meeting, if convened on the requisition of Unitholders, shall be dissolved, but in any other case it shall stand adjourned to such day being not less than fourteen (14) days later and to such place and time as may be appointed by the Chairman of the meeting. If at such adjourned meeting a quorum as above defined is not present, the Unitholders present either personally or by proxy shall form a quorum, and any business may be brought before or dealt with at such an adjourned meeting which might have been brought before or dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same.

10.4 Voting Rights of Unitholders

Only Unitholders of record and holders of Special Voting Units shall be entitled to vote and each Trust Unit shall entitle the holder or holders of that Trust Unit to one vote at any meeting of the Unitholders and each Special Voting Unit shall entitle the holder thereof to such number of votes as may be prescribed in the resolution of the board of directors of the Administrator authorizing the issuance of such Special Voting Unit at any meeting of Unitholders. Every question submitted to a meeting, other than a Special Resolution, shall, unless a poll vote is demanded, be decided by a show of hands vote, on which every person present and entitled to vote shall be entitled to one vote. At any meeting of Unitholders, any holder of Trust Units or Special Voting Units entitled to vote thereat may vote by proxy and a proxy need not be a Unitholder, provided that no proxy shall be voted at any meeting unless it shall have been placed on file with the Trustee, or with such agent of the Trustee as the Trustee may direct, for verification prior to the commencement of such meeting no later than the time for which proxies are to have been received as set forth in the notice of such meeting. If approved by the Trustee, proxies may be solicited in the name of the Trustee. When any Trust Unit is held jointly by several persons, any one of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy in respect of such Trust Unit, but if more than one of them shall be present at such meeting in person or by proxy, and such joint owners of their proxies so present disagree as to any vote to be cast, the joint owner present or represented whose name appears first in the register maintained pursuant to Section 11.3 shall be entitled to cast such vote.

10.5 Resolutions

(a) The Trustee shall in accordance with an Ordinary Resolution passed by the Unitholders: (i) change the Auditors as provided in Section 15.3; and (ii) elect the directors of the Corporation.

(b) The Trustee shall in accordance with a Special Resolution passed by the Unitholders:

(i) subject to Section 9.1, amend this Indenture;

(ii) subdivide or consolidate Trust Units (other than as provided in Section 3.7);

(iii) sell or agree to sell the property of the Trust Fund as an entirety or substantially as an entirety;

(iv) resign if removed pursuant to Section 6.3; and

(v) commence to wind-up and wind-up the affairs of the Trust if requested pursuant to Section 12.2.

Except with respect to the above matters set out in this Section 10.5 and the matters set forth in Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 12.2 hereof, no action taken by the Unitholders or resolution of the Unitholders at any meeting shall in any way bind the Trustee.

10.6 Meaning of “Special Resolution”

The expression “Special Resolution” when used in this Indenture means, subject as hereinafter in this Article provided, a resolution proposed to be passed as a special resolution at a meeting of Unitholders (including an adjourned meeting) duly convened for the purpose and held in accordance with the provisions of this Article at which two or more holders of at least 5% of the aggregate number of Trust Units then outstanding are present in person or by proxy and passed by the affirmative votes of the holders of not less than 66 2/3% of the Trust Units (including the Special Voting Units) represented at the meeting and voted on a poll upon such resolution. For the purpose of determining such percentage, the holders of any issued Special Voting Units who are present at the meeting shall be regarded as representing outstanding Trust Units equivalent in number to the votes attaching to such Special Voting Units and for which such holders have a direction to vote.

If, at any such meeting, the holders of 5% of the aggregate number of Trust Units outstanding are not present in person or represented by proxy within 30 minutes after the time appointed for the meeting, then the meeting, if convened by or on the requisition of Unitholders, shall be dissolved; but in any other case it shall stand adjourned to such date, being not less than 21 nor more than 60 days later, and to such place and time as may be appointed by the chairman. Not less than ten days’ prior notice shall be given of the time and place of such adjourned meeting in the manner provided in Section 10.2. Such notice shall state that at the adjourned meeting the Unitholders present in person or represented by proxy shall form a quorum but it shall not be necessary to set forth the purposes for which the meeting was originally called or any other particulars. At the adjourned meeting, the Unitholders present in person or represented by proxy shall form a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened, and a resolution proposed at such adjourned meeting and passed by the requisite vote as provided in this Section 10.6 shall be a Special Resolution within the meaning of this Indenture, notwithstanding that the holders of less than 5% of the aggregate number of Trust Units then outstanding are present or represented by proxy at such adjourned meeting.

Votes on a Special Resolution shall always be given on a poll and no demand for a poll on a Special Resolution shall be necessary. No Special Resolution changing or amending any provision hereof relating to or affecting: (i) the Trustee, including the qualification, powers, authorities, appointment, removal or resignation thereof; or (ii) the provisions of Article 9, Article 10 or Article 12 shall be effective prior to 60 days from the adoption thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof or such shorter period as may be approved by Unitholders.

10.7 Record Date for Voting

For the purpose of determining the Unitholders and holders of Special Voting Units who are entitled to vote or act at any meeting or any adjournment thereof, the Trustee may fix a date not more than 50 days and not less than 21 days prior to the date of any meeting of Unitholders and holders of Special Voting Units as a record date for the determination of Unitholders entitled to vote at such meeting or any adjournment thereof, and any Unitholder who was a Unitholder at the time so fixed shall be entitled to vote at such meeting or any adjournment thereof even though he has since that time disposed of his Trust Units, and no Unitholder becoming such after that time shall be so entitled to vote at such meeting or any adjournment thereof. In the event that the Trustee does not fix a record date for any meeting of Unitholders, the record date for such meeting shall be the Business Day immediately preceding the date upon which notice of the meeting is given as provided under Section 10.2.

10.8 Binding Effect of Resolutions

Every Ordinary Resolution and every Special Resolution passed in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture at a meeting of Unitholders shall be binding upon all the Unitholders and holders of the Special Voting Units, whether present at or absent from such meeting, and each and every Unitholder and Special Voting Units shall be bound to give effect accordingly to every such Ordinary Resolution and Special Resolution.

10.9 Solicitation of Proxies

A Unitholder shall have the right to appoint a proxy to attend and act for the Unitholder at any meeting of Unitholders. The Trustee shall solicit proxies from Unitholders in connection with all meetings of

Unitholders. In connection therewith, the Trustee shall comply, as near as may be possible, with all provisions of the ABCA and the requirements of Canadian securities legislation applicable to the solicitation of proxies.

10.10 No Breach

Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture, neither Unitholders nor holders of Special Voting Units shall have the power to effect any amendment hereto which would require the Trustee to take any action or conduct the affairs of the Trust in a manner which would constitute a breach or default by the Trust or the Trustee under any agreement binding on or obligation of the Trust or the Trustee.

ARTICLE 11
CERTIFICATES, REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF TRUST UNITS

11.1 Nature of Trust Units

The nature of a Trust Unit and the relationship of a Unitholder to the Trustee and the relationship of one Unitholder to another is as described in Section 2.4 and Subsection 2.5(c) and the provisions of this Article 11 shall not in any way alter the nature of Trust Units or the said relationships of a Unitholder to the Trustee and of one Unitholder to another, but are intended only to facilitate the issuance of certificates evidencing the beneficial ownership of Trust Units and the recording of all such transactions whether by the Trust, securities dealers, stock exchanges, transfer agents, registrars or other persons.

11.2 Certificates

(a) The form of certificate representing Trust Units shall be substantially as set out in the Schedule hereto or such other form as is authorized from time to time by the Administrator. Each such certificate shall bear an identifying serial number and shall be certified manually on behalf of the Trustee. Any additional signature required by the Trustee to appear on such certificate may be printed, lithographed or otherwise mechanically reproduced thereon and, in such event, certificates so signed are as valid as if it had been signed manually. Any certificate which has one manual signature as hereinbefore provided shall be valid notwithstanding that one or more of the persons whose signature is printed, lithographed or mechanically reproduced no longer holds office at the date of issuance of such certificate. The Trust Certificates may be engraved, printed or lithographed, or partly in one form and partly in another, as the Administrator may determine.

(b) Any Trust Unit Certificate validly issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture in effect at the time of issuance shall validly represent issued and outstanding Trust Units, notwithstanding that the form of such Trust Unit Certificate may not be in the form currently required by this Indenture.

11.3 Register of Unitholders

A register shall be maintained at the principal corporate trust office of the Transfer Agent in the City of Calgary by the Transfer Agent designated to act on behalf and under the direction of the Trustee, which register shall contain the names and addresses of the Unitholders, the respective numbers of Trust Units held by them, the certificate numbers of the certificates representing such Trust Units and a record of all transfers thereof. Branch transfer registers shall be maintained at such other offices of the Transfer Agent as the Trustee may from time to time designate. The Transfer Agent shall designate an office in the City of Toronto at which a branch register shall be maintained. Except in the case of the registers required to be maintained at the Cities of Calgary and Toronto, the Transfer Agent shall have the power at any time to close any register of transfers and in that event shall transfer the records thereof to another existing register or to a new register.

Only Unitholders whose certificates are so recorded shall be entitled to receive distributions or to exercise or enjoy the rights of Unitholders hereunder. The Trustee shall have the right to treat the person registered as a Unitholder on the register of the Trust as the owner of such Trust Units for all purposes, including, without limitation, payment of any distribution, giving notice to Unitholders and determining the right to attend and vote at

meetings of Unitholders, and the Trustee shall not be bound to recognize any transfer, pledge or other disposition of a Trust Unit or any attempt to transfer, pledge or dispose of a Trust Unit, or any beneficial interest or equitable or other right or claim with respect thereto, whether or not the Trustee shall have actual or other notice thereof, until such Trust Unit shall have been transferred on the register of the Transfer Agent as herein provided.

The register and the branch transfer register referred to in this Section 11.3 shall at all reasonable times be open for inspection by the Unitholders, the Administrator and the Trustee.

11.4 Transfer of Trust Units

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Article 11 and Sections 3.9 and 7.12, the Trust Units shall be fully transferable without charge as between persons, but no transfer of Trust Units shall be effective as against the Trustee or shall be in any way binding upon the Trustee until the transfer has been recorded on the register or one of the branch transfer registers maintained by the Transfer Agent. No transfer of a Trust Unit shall be recognized unless such transfer is of a whole Trust Unit.

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Article 11, Trust Units shall be transferable on the register or one of the branch transfer registers of Unitholders of the Trust only by the Unitholders of record thereof or their executors, administrators or other legal representatives or by their agents hereunto duly authorized in writing, and only upon delivery to the Transfer Agent of the Trust, of the certificate therefor, if certificates representing Trust Units are issued, properly endorsed or accompanied by a duly executed instrument of transfer and accompanied by all necessary transfer or other taxes imposed by law, together with such evidence of the genuineness of such endorsement, execution and authorization and other matters that may reasonably be required by the Transfer Agent. Upon such delivery the transfer shall be recorded on the register of Unitholders and a new Trust Certificate for the residue thereof (if any) shall be issued to the transferor. Unless the Corporation agrees to assume liability for the transfer and exchange fees the Unitholder shall be responsible for such fees and expenses.

(c) Any person becoming entitled to any Trust Units as a consequence of the death, bankruptcy or incompetence of any Unitholder or otherwise by operation of law, shall be recorded as the holder of such Trust Units and shall receive a new Trust Certificate therefor only upon production of evidence satisfactory to the Transfer Agent thereof and delivery of the existing Trust Certificate to the Transfer Agent, but until such record is made the Unitholder of record shall continue to be and be deemed to be the holder of such Trust Units for all purposes whether or not the Trustee or the Transfer Agent shall have actual or other notice of such death or other event.

11.5 Trust Units Held Jointly or in a Fiduciary Capacity

The Trustee and the Transfer Agent may treat two or more persons holding any Trust Units as joint owners of the entire interest therein unless their ownership is expressly otherwise recorded on the register of the Trust, but no entry shall be made in the register or on any Trust Certificate that any person is in any other manner entitled to any future, limited or contingent interest in any Trust Units; provided, however, that any person recorded as a Unitholder may, subject to the provisions hereinafter contained, be described in the register or on any Trust Certificate as a fiduciary of any kind and any customary words may be added to the description of the holder to identify the nature of such fiduciary relationship. Where any Trust Certificate is registered in more than one name, the distributions (if any) in respect thereof may be paid to the order of all such holders failing written instructions from them to the contrary and such payment shall be a valid discharge to the Trustee and any Transfer Agent. In the case of the death of one or more joint holders, the distributions (if any) in respect of any Trust Units may be paid to the survivor or survivors of such holders and such payment shall be a valid discharge to the Trustee and any Transfer Agent.

11.6 Performance of Trust

The Trustee, the Unitholders and any officer or agent of the Trustee shall not be bound to be responsible for or otherwise inquire into or ensure the performance of any trust, express, implied or constructive, or

of any charge, pledge or equity to which any of the Trust Units or any interest therein are or may be subject, or to ascertain or enquire whether any transfer of any such Trust Units or interests therein by any such Unitholder or by his personal representatives is authorized by such trust, charge, pledge or equity, or to recognize any person as having any interest therein except for the person recorded as a Unitholder.

11.7 Lost Certificates

In the event that any Trust Certificate is lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent may authorize the issuance of a new Trust Certificate for the same number of Trust Units in lieu thereof. The Trustee or the Transfer Agent may in its discretion, before the issuance of such new Trust Certificate, require the owner of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Trust Certificate, or the legal representative of the owner to make an affidavit or statutory declaration setting forth such facts as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation as the Trustee or the Transfer Agent may deem necessary, to surrender any mutilated Trust Certificate and may require the applicant to supply to the Trust a “lost certificate bond” or a similar bond in such reasonable sum as the Trustee or the Transfer Agent may direct indemnifying the Trustee and its agent for so doing. The Trustee shall have the power to require from an insurer or insurers a blanket lost security bond or bonds in respect of the replacement of lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Trust Certificates. The Trustee may pay all premiums and other funds of money payable for such purpose out of the Trust Fund with such contribution, if any, by those insured as may be determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion. If such blanket lost security bond is required, the Trustee may authorize and direct (upon such terms and conditions as the Trustee may from time to time impose) any agent to whom the indemnity of such bond extends to take such action to replace any lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Trust Certificate without further action or approval by the Trustee.

11.8 Death of a Unitholder

The death of a Unitholder during the continuance of the Trust shall not terminate the Trust or any of the mutual or respective rights and obligations created by or arising under this Indenture nor give such Unitholder’s personal representative a right to an accounting or take any action in court or otherwise against other Unitholders or the Trustee or the Trust Fund, but shall entitle the personal representatives of the deceased Unitholder to demand and receive, pursuant to the provisions hereof, a new Trust Certificate for Trust Units in place of the Trust Certificate held by the deceased Unitholder, and upon the acceptance thereof such personal representatives shall succeed to all rights of the deceased Unitholder under this Indenture.

11.9 Unclaimed Interest or Distribution

In the event that the Trustee shall hold any amount of interest or other distributable amount which is unclaimed or which cannot be paid for any reason, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to invest or reinvest the same but shall only be obliged to hold the same in a current non-interest-bearing account pending payment to the person or persons entitled thereto. The Trustee shall, as and when required by law, and may at any time prior to such required time, pay all or part of such interest or other distributable amount so held to the public trustee (or other appropriate government official or agency) whose receipt shall be a good discharge and release of the Trustee.

11.10 Exchanges of Trust Certificates

Trust Certificates representing any number of Trust Units may be exchanged without charge for Trust Certificates representing an equivalent number of Trust Units in the aggregate. Any exchange of Trust Certificates may be made at the offices of the Trustee or at the offices of any Transfer Agent where registers are maintained for the Trust Certificates pursuant to the provisions of this Article 11. Any Trust Certificates tendered for exchange shall be surrendered to the Trustee or appropriate Transfer Agent and shall be cancelled. The Corporation shall reimburse the Trustee for all exchange fees associated with any such exchange. Subject to the foregoing, unless the Corporation agrees to assume liability for the transfer and exchange fees, the Unitholder shall be responsible for all such fees and expenses.

11.11 Offer for Units

(a) In this Section 11.11:

(i) “Dissenting Unitholder” means a Unitholder who does not accept an Offer referred to in Subsection (b) and includes any assignee of the Trust Unit of a Unitholder to whom such an Offer is made, whether or not such assignee is recognized under this Indenture;

(i) within the time provided in the Offer for its acceptance or within 90 days after the date the Offer is made, whichever period is the shorter, the Offer is accepted by Unitholders representing at least 90% of the outstanding Trust Units, other than the Offeror’s Units;

Each Unitholder shall be entitled to require the Trust to redeem at any time or from time to time at the demand of the Unitholder all or any part of the Trust Units registered in the name of the Unitholder at the prices determined and payable in accordance with the conditions hereinafter provided.

18.2 Exercise of Redemption Right

To exercise a Unitholder’s right to require redemption under this Article 18, a duly completed and properly executed notice requiring the Trust to redeem Trust Units, in a form approved by the Trustee, shall be sent to the Trust at the head office of the Trust, together with the Trust Unit Certificate or Trust Unit Certificates representing the Trust Units to be redeemed. No form or manner of completion or execution shall be sufficient unless the same is in all respects satisfactory to the Administrator and is accompanied by any further evidence that the Corporation may reasonably require with respect to the identity, capacity or authority of the person giving such notice.

Upon receipt by the Trust of the notice to redeem Trust Units, the Unitholder shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to the Trust Units tendered for redemption (other than to receive the redemption payment therefor) including the right to receive any distributions thereon. Trust Units shall be considered to be tendered for redemption on the date that the Trust has, to the satisfaction of the Administrator, received the notice, Trust Unit Certificates and other required documents or evidence as aforesaid.

18.3 Calculation of Redemption Price Based on Market Price

Upon receipt by the Trust of the notice to redeem Trust Units in accordance with Section 18.2, the holder of the Trust Units tendered for redemption shall be entitled to receive a price per Trust Unit (hereinafter called the “Market Redemption Price”) equal to the lesser of:

(a) 95% of the market price of the Trust Units on the principal market on which the Trust Units are quoted for trading during the 10 day trading period immediately prior to the date on which the Trust Units were tendered to the Trust for redemption unless the Trust Units are tendered for redemption before the Trust Units have been quoted for trading for 10 trading days following listing, in which case the 10 day trading period shall commence on the date of such listing; and

(b) 95% of the closing market price on the principal market on which the Trust Units are quoted for trading, on the date that the Trust Units were so tendered for redemption.

For the purposes of subsection 18.3(a), the market price shall be an amount equal to the simple average of the closing price of the Trust Units for each of the trading days on which there was a closing price; provided that if the applicable exchange or market does not provide a closing price but only provides the highest and lowest prices of the Trust Units traded on a particular day, the market price shall be an amount equal to the simple average of the highest and lowest prices for each of the trading days on which there was a trade; and provided further that if there was trading on the applicable exchange or market for fewer than 5 of the 10 trading days, the market price shall be the simple average of the following prices established for each of the 10 trading days; the average of the last bid and last ask prices for each day on which there was no trading; the closing price of the Trust Units for each day that there was trading if the exchange or market provides a closing price; and the average of the highest and lowest prices of the Trust Units for each day that there was trading, if the market provides only the highest and lowest prices of Trust Units traded on a particular day.

For the purposes of subsection 18.3(b), the closing market price shall be: an amount equal to the closing price of the Trust Units if there was a trade on the date; an amount equal to the average of the highest and lowest prices of Trust Units if there was trading and the exchange or other market provides only the highest and lowest prices of Trust Units traded on a particular day; and the average of the last bid and last ask prices if there was no trading on the date.

18.4 Cash Payment of Market Redemption Price

Subject to Section 18.5, the Market Redemption Price, payable in respect of the Trust Units tendered for redemption during any calendar month shall be paid by cheque, drawn on a Canadian chartered bank or a trust company in lawful money of Canada, payable at par to or to the order of the Unitholder who exercised the right of redemption on the last day of the calendar month following the month in which the Trust Units were tendered for redemption. Payments made by the Trust of the Market Redemption Price are conclusively deemed to have been made upon the mailing of a cheque in a postage pre-paid envelope addressed to the former Unitholder unless such cheque is dishonoured upon presentment. Upon such payment, the Trust shall be discharged from all liability to the former Unitholder in respect of the Trust Units so redeemed.

18.5 Limitation Regarding Cash Payment of Market Redemption Price

Section 18.4 shall not be applicable to Trust Units tendered for redemption by a Unitholder if the total amount payable by the Trust pursuant to Section 18.4 in respect of such Trust Units and all other Trust Units tendered for redemption in the same calendar month exceeds $250,000; provided that the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, waive such limitation in respect of any calendar month. If this limitation is not so waived for such calendar month, the Market Redemption Price payable in respect of the Trust Units tendered for redemption in such calendar month shall be paid on the last day of the calendar month following such month by the Trust distributing Redemption Notes to the Unitholders who exercise the right of redemption having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate Redemption Price. Upon such distribution of Redemption Notes, the Trust shall be discharged from all liability to the former Unitholder in respect of the Trust Units so redeemed, except with respect to any

outstanding payments in respect of Trust Units pertaining to distributions payable thereon to such former Unitholder of record on a date which is prior to the date that the Trust Units were tendered to the Trust for redemption.

18.6 Cancellation of Certificates for all Redeemed Trust Units

All certificates representing Trust Units which are redeemed under this Article 18 shall be cancelled and such Trust Units shall no longer be outstanding and shall not be reissued.

18.7 Withholdings by the Trustee

The Trustee may deduct or withhold from all payments or other distributions payable to any Unitholder pursuant to this Article 18 all amounts required by law to be so withheld.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF each of the parties has caused these presents to be executed by its proper officers duly authorized on its behalf as of the 5^th day of January, 2006.
