Assay | The analysis of the proportions of metals in ore, or the testing of an ore or mineral for composition, purity, weight, or other properties of commercial interest. |
Bastnasite | Bastnasite is a mixed-lanthanide fluoro-carbonate mineral (Ln F CO3) that currently provides the bulk of the world's supply of the light REEs. Bastnasite and monazite are the two most common sources of cerium and other REEs. Bastnasite is found in carbonatites, igneous carbonate rocks that melt at unusually low temperatures. |
Bonded magnet | Bonded neodymium-magnets are prepared by melt spinning a thin ribbon of the Nd-Fe-B alloy. The ribbon contains randomly oriented Nd2Fe14B nano-scale grains. This ribbon is then pulverized into particles, mixed with a polymer and either compression or injection molded into bonded magnets. Bonded magnets offer less flux than sintered magnets, but can be net-shape formed into intricately shaped parts and do not suffer significant eddy current losses. |
Cerium | Cerium (Ce) is a soft, silvery, ductile metal which easily oxidizes in air. Cerium is the most abundant of the REEs, and is found in a number of minerals, including monazite and bastnasite. Cerium has two relatively stable oxidation states, enabling both the storage of oxygen and its widespread use in catalytic converters. Cerium is also widely used in glass polish. |
Concentrate | A mineral processing product that generally describes the material that is produced after crushing and grinding ore, effecting significant separation of gangue (waste) minerals from the desired metal and/or metal minerals, and discarding the waste minerals. The resulting “concentrate” of minerals typically has an order of magnitude higher content of minerals than the beginning ore material. |
Cut-off grade | The lowest grade of mineralized material that qualifies as ore in a given deposit. The grade above which minerals are considered economically mineable considering the following parameters: estimates over the relevant period of mining costs, ore treatment costs, general and administrative costs, refining costs, royalty expenses, by-product credits, process and refining recovery rates and price. |
Didymium | Didymium is a natural and unseparated combination of neodymium and praseodymium, which is approximately 75% neodymium and 25% praseodymium, depending on the ore. |
Dysprosium | A few percent of Dysprosium (Dy) is often added to high power neodymium iron boron magnets to increase their resistance to demagnetization. A minor use of dysprosium is in the magnetostrictive alloy, based on DyTbFe called terfenol-D. |
Europium | Europium (Eu) is desirable due to its photon emission. Excitation of the europium atom, by absorption of electrons or by UV radiation, results in changes in energy levels that create a visible emission. Almost all practical uses of europium utilize this luminescent behavior. |
Gadolinium | Gadolinium (Gd) absorbs neutrons and therefore is used for shielding and controlling neutron radiography and in nuclear reactors. Because of its paramagnetic properties, solutions of organic gadolinium complexes and gadolinium compounds are popular intravenous contrast enhancing agents for medical Magnetic Resonance Imaging contrast agents in (MRI). Gadolinium is sometimes added to samarium cobalt magnets to make their magnetic properties less temperature dependent. |
Gallium | Elemental gallium is not found in nature, but it is easily obtained by smelting. Very pure gallium metal has a brilliant silvery color and its solid metal fractures conchoidally like glass. Almost all gallium is used for microelectronics. |
Grade | The average REE content, as determined by assay of a metric ton of ore. |
Indium | A rare, very soft, malleable and easily fusible post-transition metal that is chemically similar to gallium and thallium, and shows intermediate properties between these two. Indium's current primary application is to form transparent electrodes from indium tin oxide (ITO) in liquid crystal displays and touchscreens, and this use largely determines its global mining production. It is widely used in thin-films to form lubricated layers. It is also used for making particularly low melting point alloys, and is a component in some lead-free solders. |
Lanthanum | Lanthanum (La) is the first member of the Lanthanide series. Lanthanum is a strategically important rare earth element due to its use in fluid bed cracking catalysts, FCCs, which are used in the production of transportation and aircraft fuel. Lanthanum is also used in fuel cells and batteries. |
Mill | A processing plant that produces a concentrate of the valuable minerals contained in an ore. |
Mineralization | The process or processes by which a mineral or minerals are introduced into a rock, resulting in a valuable or potentially valuable deposit. |
Monazite | Monazite is a reddish-brown phosphate mineral. Monazite minerals are typically accompanied by concentrations of uranium and thorium. This has historically limited the processing of monazite, however this mineral is becoming more attractive because it typically has elevated concentrations of mid-to heavy rare earths. |
Niobium | Niobium is a rare, soft, grey, ductile transition metal found in the minerals pyrochlore, the main commercial source for niobium, and columbite. Niobium is used mostly in alloys, the largest part in special steel such as that used in gas pipelines. Although alloys contain only a maximum of 0.1%, that small percentage of niobium improves the strength of the steel. The temperature stability of niobium-containing superalloys is important for its use in jet and rocket engines. Niobium is used in various superconducting materials. |
Neodymium | Neodymium (Nd) has two major uses. It is key constituent of NdFeB permanent magnets and it is an additive to capacitor dielectrics. NdFeB magnets maximize the power/weight ratio, and are found in a large variety of motors, generators, sensors and hard disk drives. Capacitors containing neodymium are found in cellular telephones, computers and nearly all other electronic devices. A minor application of neodymium is in lasers. |
Ore | That part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of reserve determination. |
Overburden | In surface mining, overburden is the material that overlays an ore deposit. Overburden is removed prior to mining. |
Praseodymium | Praseodymium (Pr) comprises about 4% of the lanthanide content of bastnasite and has a few specific applications, based mainly on its optical properties. It is a common coloring pigment, and is used in photographic filters, airport signal lenses, and welder's glasses. Because it chemically and magnetically is so similar to its neighbors neodymium and lanthanum, it is typically found in small amounts in applications where neodymium and lanthanum are popular, such as NdFeB magnets and catalysts. These latter applications are actually the largest uses for praseodymium because the magnet and catalyst markets are so large. Thus praseodymium plays an important role, in extending the availability of the more popular neodymium and lanthanum. |
Probable reserves | Reserves for which quantity and grade and/or quality are computed from information similar to that used for proven reserves, but the sites for inspection, sampling, and measurement are farther apart or are otherwise less adequately spaced. The degree of assurance, although lower than that for proven reserves, is high enough to assume continuity between points of observation. |
Proven reserves | Reserves for which (a) quantity is computed from dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches, workings or drill holes; grade and/or quality are computed from the results of detailed sampling; and (b) the sites for inspection, sampling and measurement are spaced so closely and the geologic character is so well defined that size, shape, depth and mineral content of reserves are well established. |
Recovery | The percentage of contained metal actually extracted from ore in the course of processing such ore. |
Reserves | That part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. Same definition as 'ore' |
Rhenium | It is a silvery-white, heavy, third-row transition metal. With an estimated average concentration of 1 part per billion (ppb), rhenium is one of the rarest elements in the Earth's crust. The free element has the third-highest melting point and highest boiling point of any element. Rhenium resembles manganese chemically and is obtained as a by-product of molybdenum and copper ore's extraction and refinement. Nickel-based superalloys of rhenium are used in the combustion chambers, turbine blades, and exhaust nozzles of jet engines. These alloys contain up to 6% rhenium, making jet engine construction the largest single use for the element, with the chemical industry's catalytic uses being next-most important. |
Samarium | Samarium (Sm) is predominantly used to produce samarium cobalt magnets. Although these magnets are slightly less powerful than NdFeB magnets at room temperature, samarium cobalt magnets can be used over a wider range of temperatures and are less susceptible to corrosion. |
Sintered magnet | Sintered neodymium-magnets are prepared by the raw materials being melted in a furnace, cast into a mold and cooled to form ingots. The ingots are pulverized and milled to tiny particles. This undergoes a process of liquid-phase sintering whereby the powder is magnetically aligned into dense blocks which are then heat-treated, cut to shape, surface treated and magnetized. |
Tantalum | Tantalum is a rare, hard, blue-gray, lustrous transition metal that is highly corrosion resistant. It is part of the refractory metals group, which are widely used as minor component in alloys. The chemical inertness of tantalum makes it a valuable substance for laboratory equipment and a substitute for platinum, but its main use today is in tantalum capacitors in electronic equipment such as mobile phones, DVD players, video game systems and computers. |
Terbium | Terbium (Tb) is used primarily as a phosphor, either in fluorescent lamps or x-ray screens. It can replace dysprosium in NdFeB magnets but usually does not because of its cost. A minor use of terbium is in the magnetostrictive alloy, based on DyTbFe called terfenol-D. |
Yttrium | Yttrium (Y), although not a lanthanide series element, is often considered to be a rare earth element and its behavior is similar to heavy rare earth elements. It is predominantly utilized in lighting applications and ceramics. Other uses include resonators, lasers, microwave communication devices and other electronic devices. |
Zirconium oxide | A white amorphous powder that is insoluble in water and highly refractory, used as a pigment for paints, a catalyst, and an abrasive. |

Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be equal to the Current Market Price of the Common Shares immediately preceding the Effective Date; provided that for the purposes of this Section 2.4(k)(ii) and the determination of Current Market Price, the applicable period shall be calculated based on the 20 consecutive trading days ending five trading days preceding the applicable date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no circumstances can the effective Conversion Price (calculated by dividing US$1,000 by the number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion, including the maximum number of Make Whole Premium Shares hereunder) be less than the maximum permitted discounted price permitted by the TSX (or such other exchange on which the Debentures are then listed) at the time of announcement of the Offering, prior to any adjustments that may be made to the Stock Price to correspond to an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Indenture. |
(iii) | The following table shows the number of Make Whole Premium Shares for each hypothetical Stock Price and Effective Date set forth below, expressed as additional Common Shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Debentures. For the avoidance of doubt, the Corporation shall not be obliged to pay the Make Whole Premium otherwise than by issuance of Common Shares upon conversion of the Initial Debentures in accordance with the provisions and conditions of Section 2.4(f) and Article 6. If the Stock Price or Effective Date are not set forth on the table then: |
(A) | if the actual Stock Price on the Effective Date is between two Stock Prices on the table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates on the table, the number of Make Whole Premium Shares will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the amounts set forth for the two Stock Prices and the two Effective Dates on the table based on a 365-day year, as applicable, |
(B) | if the Stock Price on the Effective Date exceeds US$40 per Common Share, subject to adjustment as set forth herein, the number of Make Whole Premium Shares to be issued will be zero, and (iii) if the Stock Price on the Effective Date is less than US$9.96 per Common Share, subject to adjustment as set forth herein, the number of Make Whole Premium Shares to be issued will be zero. |

(iv) | The Stock Prices set forth in the table above will be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Price of the Initial Debentures is adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately preceding such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the denominator of which is the Conversion Price immediately preceding the adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the numerator of which is the Conversion Price as so adjusted. The number of additional Make Whole Premium Shares set forth in the table above will be adjusted in the same manner as the Conversion Price as set forth in Section 6.5 hereof, other than as a result of an adjustment of the Conversion Price by adding the Make Whole Premium as described above. |
(v) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Date of Conversion of any Initial Debentures occurs during the period beginning on the 10th trading day prior to the Effective Date and ending at the close of business on the Effective Date, the holders of such Initial Debentures shall, on conversion of their Initial Debentures, only be entitled to receive that number of Make Whole Premium Shares (as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 6.5) on the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date and, for greater certainty, only if the Change of Control occurs. |
(vi) | The Make Whole Premium Shares shall be deemed to have been issued upon conversion of Initial Debentures on the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date. Section 6.5 shall apply to such conversion and, for greater certainty, the former holders of Initial Debentures in respect of which the Make Whole Premium Shares are issuable shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the Make Whole Premium Shares, the number of shares or other securities or cash or other property of the Corporation or of the Person or other entity resulting from the transaction that constitutes the Cash Change of Control that such holders would have been entitled to receive if such holders had been the registered holders of the applicable number of Make Whole Premium Shares on the Effective Date. |
(vii) | Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.4(k), all other provisions of this Indenture applicable to a conversion of Initial Debentures shall apply to a conversion of Initial Debentures during the Cash Change of Control Conversion Period. |
(l) | The Trustee shall be provided with the documents and instruments referred to in Sections 2.5(b), 2.5(c) and 2.5(d) with respect to the Initial Debentures prior to the issuance of the Initial Debentures. |
(m) | Notwithstanding all of the foregoing, if holders of Debentures would otherwise be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Initial Debentures, any property (including cash) or securities that would not constitute “prescribed securities” for the purposes of clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) as it applied on December 31, 2007 (referred to herein as “ineligible consideration”), such holders shall not be entitled to receive such ineligible consideration but the Corporation or its successor or acquiror, as the case may be, shall have the right (at the sole option of the Corporation or such successor or acquiror, as the case may be) to deliver either such ineligible consideration or such “prescribed securities” with a market value (as conclusively determined by the Board of Directors) equal to the market value of such ineligible consideration. |
(n) | If required by applicable law or administrative practice, the Corporation (or any agent acting on its behalf) shall withhold or deduct the relevant amounts in respect of taxes and remit such amounts to the appropriate governmental authority in the manner and within the time required. |
2.5 | Certification and Delivery of Additional Debentures |
(a) | an Officers’ Certificate and/or executed supplemental indenture by or pursuant to which the form and terms of such Additional Debentures were established; |
(b) | a Written Direction of the Corporation requesting certification and delivery of such Additional Debentures and setting forth delivery instructions, provided that, with respect to Debentures of a series subject to a Periodic Offering: |
(i) | such Written Direction of the Corporation shall be delivered by the Corporation to the Trustee prior to the delivery to the Trustee of such Additional Debentures of such series for certification and delivery; |
(ii) | the Trustee shall certify and deliver Additional Debentures of such series for original issue from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the aggregate principal amount, if any, established for such series, pursuant to a Written Direction of the Corporation; and |
(iii) | the maturity date or dates, issue date or dates, interest rate or rates (if any) and any other terms of Additional Debentures of such series shall be determined by an executed supplemental indenture or by Written Direction of the Corporation; |
(c) | an opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, acting reasonably, to the effect that all requirements imposed by this Indenture and by law in connection with the proposed issue of Additional Debentures have been complied with, subject to the delivery of certain documents or instruments specified in such opinion; and |
(d) | an Officers’ Certificate (which Officers’ Certificate shall be in such form that satisfies all applicable laws) certifying that the Corporation is not in default under this Indenture, that the terms and conditions for the certification and delivery of Additional Debentures (including those set forth in Section 15.5), have been complied with subject to the delivery of any documents or instruments specified in such Officers’ Certificate and that no Event of Default exists or will exist upon such certification and delivery. |
2.6 | Issue of Global Debentures |
(a) | The Corporation may specify that the Debentures of a series are to be issued in whole or in part as one or more Global Debentures registered in the name of a Depository, or its nominee, designated by the Corporation in the Written Direction of the Corporation delivered to the Trustee at the time of issue of such Debentures, and in such event the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall |
(i) | represent an aggregate amount equal to the principal amount of the outstanding Debentures of such series to be represented by one or more Global Debentures; |
(ii) | be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such Depository’s instructions; and |
(iii) | bear a legend substantially to the following effect: |
(b) | Each Depository designated for a Global Debenture must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as such Depository, be a clearing agency registered or designated under the securities legislation of the jurisdiction where the Depository has its principal offices. |

2.11 | Concerning Interest |
(a) | All Debentures issued hereunder, whether originally or upon exchange or in substitution for |
(b) | Subject to Section 2.11(c), unless otherwise specifically provided in the terms of the Debentures of any series, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days. With respect to any series of Debentures, whenever interest is computed on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate for purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) by multiplying such rate of interest by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year. |
(c) | For the purposes solely of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), whenever interest to be paid on the Debentures is to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days consisting of twelve 30- day months, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent during any particular period is the rate so used multiplied by a fraction of which: |
(ix) | the numerator is the product of: |
(A) | the actual number of days in the calendar year in which such period ends, and |
(B) | the sum of (A) the product of (x) 30 and (y) the number of complete months elapsed in the relevant period and (B) the number of days elapsed in any incomplete month in the relevant period, and |
(C) | the denominator is the product of (i) 360 and (ii) the actual number of days in the relevant period. |

(b) | All payments of interest on the Global Debenture shall be made by electronic funds transfer or certified cheque made payable to the Depository or its nominee on the day interest is payable for subsequent payment to Beneficial Holders of the applicable Global Debenture, unless the Corporation and the Depository otherwise agree. None of the Corporation, the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee for any Debenture issued as a Global Debenture will be liable or responsible to any person for any aspect of the records related to or payments made on account of beneficial interests in any Global Debenture or for maintaining, reviewing, or supervising any records relating to such beneficial interests. |
(c) | If the Corporation chooses to make a home office payment, then it shall confirm to the Trustee that a payment has been made and each registered holder to whom such payments were made shall confirm receipt in writing of such payment to the Trustee. |
(d) | Should any tax be required by applicable law or administrative practice to be withheld or deducted from any payment or delivery of interest, premium or principal, the Corporation (or any agent acting on its behalf) shall remit in the appropriate manner and within the time required to the relevant governmental authority the amount required to be withheld or deducted. |
3.1 | Fully Registered Debentures |
(a) | With respect to each series of Debentures issuable as Fully Registered Debentures, the Corporation |
(b) | No transfer of a Fully Registered Debenture shall be valid unless made on such register referred to in Section 3.1(a) by the registered holder or such holder’s executors, administrators or other legal representatives or an attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and executed in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee or other registrar upon surrender of the Debentures together with a duly executed form of transfer acceptable to the Trustee and upon compliance with such other reasonable requirements as the Trustee or other registrar may prescribe, or unless the name of the transferee shall have been noted on the Debenture by the Trustee or other registrar. |
3.2 | Global Debentures |
(a) | With respect to each series of Debentures issuable in whole or in part as one or more Global Debentures, the Corporation shall cause to be kept by and at the principal offices of the Trustee in Toronto, Ontario and by the Trustee or such other registrar as the Corporation, with the approval of the Trustee, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as the Corporation may designate with the approval of the Trustee, a register in which shall be entered the name and address of the holder of each such Global Debenture (being the Depository, or its nominee, for such Global Debenture) as holder thereof and particulars of the Global Debenture held by it, and of all transfers thereof. If any Debentures of such series are at any time not Global Debentures, the provisions of Section 3.1 shall also apply with respect to registrations and transfers of such Debentures. |
(b) | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, a Global Debenture may not be transferred by the registered holder thereof and accordingly, no definitive certificates shall be issued to Beneficial Holders except in the following circumstances or as otherwise specified in a resolution of the Trustee, a resolution of the Board of Directors, Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture relating to a particular series of Additional Debentures: |
(i) | Global Debentures may be transferred by a Depository to a nominee of such Depository or by a nominee of a Depository to such Depository or to another nominee of such Depository or by a Depository or its nominee to a successor Depository or its nominee; |
(ii) | Global Debentures may be transferred at any time after the Depository for such Global Debentures (i) has notified the Trustee, or the Corporation has notified the Trustee, that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Debentures, or (ii) ceases to be eligible to be a Depository under Section 2.6(b), provided that at the time of such transfer the Corporation has not appointed a successor Depository for such Global Debentures; |
(iii) | Global Debentures may be transferred at any time after the Corporation has determined, in its sole discretion, to terminate the book-entry only registration system in respect of such Global Debentures and has communicated such determination to the Trustee in writing; |
(iv) | Global Debentures may be transferred at any time after the Trustee has determined that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Debentures of the series issued as a Global Debenture, provided that Beneficial Holders representing, in the aggregate, not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures of such series advise the Depository in writing, through the Depository Participants, that the continuation of the book-entry only registration system for such series of Debentures is no longer in their best interest and also provided that at the time of such transfer the Trustee has not waived the Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.3; |
(v) | Global Debentures may be transferred if required by applicable law; or |
(vi) | Global Debentures may be transferred if the book-entry only registration system ceases to exist. |
(c) | With respect to the Global Debentures, unless and until definitive certificates have been issued to Beneficial Holders pursuant to subsection 3.2(b): |
(i) | the Corporation and the Trustee may deal with the Depository for all purposes (including paying interest on the Debentures) as the sole holder of such series of Debentures and the authorized representative of the Beneficial Holders; |
(ii) | the rights of the Beneficial Holders shall be exercised only through the Depository and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Holders and the Depository or the Depository Participants; |
(iii) | the Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants; and |
(iv) | whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instruction or directions of Debentureholders evidencing a specified percentage of the outstanding Debentures, the Depository shall be deemed to be counted in that percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from the Beneficial Holders or the Depository Participant, and has delivered such instructions to the Trustee. |
(d) | Whenever a notice or other communication is required to be provided to Debentureholders, unless and until definitive certificate(s) have been issued to Beneficial Holders pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Trustee shall provide all such notices and communications to the Depository and the Depository shall deliver such notices and communications to such Beneficial Holders in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation. Upon the termination of the book-entry only registration system on the occurrence of one of the conditions specified in Section 3.2(b) with respect to a series of Debentures issued hereunder, the Trustee shall notify all applicable Depositary Participants and Beneficial Holders, through the Depository, of the availability of definitive Debenture certificates. Upon surrender by the Depository of the certificate(s) representing the Global Debentures and receipt of new registration instructions from the Depository, the Trustee shall deliver the definitive Debenture certificates for such Debentures to the holders thereof in accordance with the new registration instructions and thereafter, the registration and transfer of such Debentures will be governed by Section 3.1 and the remaining Sections of this Article 3, provided that any definitive Debenture Certificates issued or exchanged for a Restricted Global Debenture shall bear the U.S. Legend. |
(e) | Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or the Debentures, transfers and exchanges of Debentures and beneficial interests in Global Debentures shall be made in accordance the |

(a) | Subject to Section 3.2 and Section 3.7, Debentures in any authorized form or denomination, other than Global Debentures, may be exchanged for Debentures in any other authorized form or denomination, of the same series and date of maturity, bearing the same interest rate and of the same aggregate principal amount as the Debentures so exchanged. |
(b) | In respect of exchanges of Debentures permitted by Section 3.6(a), Debentures of any series may be exchanged only at the principal offices of the Trustee in Toronto, Ontario or at such other place or places, if any, as may be specified in the Debentures of such series and at such other place or places as may from time to time be designated by the Corporation with the approval of the Trustee. Any Debentures tendered for exchange shall be surrendered to the Trustee. The Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall certify all Debentures necessary to carry out exchanges as aforesaid. All Debentures surrendered for exchange shall be cancelled. |
(c) | Debentures issued in exchange for Debentures which at the time of such issue have been selected or called for redemption at a later date shall be deemed to have been selected or called for redemption in the same manner and shall have noted thereon a statement to that effect. |
3.7 | Closing of Registers |
(a) | Neither the Corporation nor the Trustee nor any registrar shall be required to: |
(i) | make transfers or exchanges or convert any of Fully Registered Debentures on any Interest Payment Date for such Debentures or during the five preceding Business Days; |
(ii) | make transfers or exchanges of, or convert any Debentures on the day of any selection by the Trustee of Debentures to be redeemed or during the five preceding Business Days; or |
(iii) | make exchanges of any Debentures which will have been selected or called for redemption unless upon due presentation thereof for redemption such Debentures shall not be redeemed. |
(b) | Subject to any restriction herein provided, the Corporation with the approval of the Trustee may at any time close any register for any series of Debentures, other than those kept at the principal offices of the Trustee in Toronto, Ontario, and transfer the registration of any Debentures registered thereon to another register (which may be an existing register) and thereafter such Debentures shall be deemed to be registered on such other register. Notice of such transfer shall be given to the holders of such Debentures. |

(b) | The registered holder for the time being of any registered Debenture shall be entitled to the principal, premium, if any, and/or interest evidenced by such instruments, respectively, free from all equities or rights of set-off or counterclaim between the Corporation and the original or any intermediate holder thereof and all persons may act accordingly and the receipt of any such registered holder for |

4.6 | Right to Repay Redemption Price in Common Shares |
(a) | Subject to the receipt of any required regulatory approvals and the other provisions of this Section 4.6, the Corporation may, at its option, in exchange for or in lieu of paying the Redemption Price in money, elect to satisfy its obligation to pay all or any portion of the Redemption Price by issuing and delivering to holders on the Redemption Date that number of Freely Tradeable Common Shares obtained by dividing the Redemption Price (or applicable portion thereof to be satisfied by the issuance and delivery of Freely Tradeable Common Shares) by 95% of the then Current Market Price of the Common Shares (which will be calculated based on the 20 consecutive trading days ending five days before the Redemption Date) (the “Common Share Redemption Right”). |
(b) | The Corporation shall exercise the Common Share Redemption Right by so specifying in the Redemption Notice and shall also specify the aggregate principal amount of Debentures in respect of which it is exercising the Common Share Redemption Right in such notice. |
(c) | The Corporation’s right to exercise the Common Share Redemption Right shall be conditional upon the following conditions being met on the Business Day preceding the Redemption Date: |
(i) | the issuance of the Common Shares on the exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right shall be made in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation and such Common Shares shall be issued as Freely Tradeable Common Shares; |

(iii) | the Corporation shall be a reporting issuer in good standing under Applicable Securities Legislation where the distribution of such Freely Tradeable Common Shares occurs; |
(iv) | no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; |
(v) | the Trustee shall have received an Officers’ Certificate stating that conditions (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above have been satisfied and setting forth the number of Common Shares to be delivered for each US$1,000 principal amount of Debentures and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Redemption Date; and |
(vi) | the Trustee shall have received an opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Common Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered pursuant to the terms of this Indenture in payment of the Redemption Price, will be validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable, that conditions (i) and (ii) above have been satisfied and that, relying exclusively on certificates of good standing issued by the relevant securities authorities, condition (iii) above is satisfied, except that the opinion in respect of condition (iii) need not be expressed with respect to those provinces where certificates are not issued. |
(d) | In the event that the Corporation duly exercises its Common Share Redemption Right, upon presentation and surrender of the Debentures for payment on the Redemption Date, at any place where a register is maintained pursuant to Article 3 or any other place specified in the Redemption Notice, the Corporation shall on or before 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the Redemption Date make the delivery to the Trustee for delivery to and on account of the holders, of certificates representing the Freely Tradeable Common Shares to which such holders are entitled. |
(e) | No fractional Freely Tradeable Common Shares shall be delivered upon the exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right but, in lieu thereof, the Corporation shall pay to the Trustee for the account of the holders, at the time contemplated in Section 4.6(d), the cash equivalent thereof determined on the basis of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Redemption Date (less any tax required to be deducted, if any). |
(f) | A holder shall be treated as the shareholder of record of the Freely Tradeable Common Shares issued on due exercise by the Corporation of its Common Share Redemption Right effective immediately after the close of business on the Redemption Date, and shall be entitled to all substitutions therefor, all income earned thereon or accretions thereto and all dividends or distributions (including distributions and dividends in kind) thereon and arising thereafter, and in the event that the Trustee receives the same, it shall hold the same in trust for the benefit of such holder. |
(g) | The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares (if the number thereof is or becomes limited), solely for the purpose of issue and delivery upon the exercise of the Corporation’s Common Share Redemption Right as provided herein, and shall issue to Debentureholders to whom Freely Tradeable Common Shares will be issued pursuant to exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right, such number of Freely Tradeable Common Shares as shall |
(h) | The Corporation shall comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation regulating the issue and delivery of Freely Tradeable Common Shares upon exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right and shall cause to be listed and posted for trading such Common Shares on each stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed. |
(i) | The Corporation shall from time to time promptly pay, or make provision satisfactory to the Trustee for the payment of, all taxes and charges which may be imposed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof (except income tax, withholding tax or security transfer tax, if any) which shall be payable with respect to the issuance or delivery of Freely Tradeable Common Shares to holders upon exercise of the Common Share Redemption Right pursuant to the terms of the Debentures and of this Indenture. |
(j) | If the Corporation elects to satisfy its obligation to pay all or any portion of the Redemption Price by issuing Freely Tradeable Common Shares in accordance with this Section 4.6 and if the Redemption Price (or any portion thereof) to which a holder is entitled is subject to withholding taxes and the amount of the cash payment of the Redemption Price, if any, is insufficient to satisfy such withholding taxes, the Trustee, on the Written Direction of the Corporation but for the account of the holder, shall sell, through the investment banks, brokers or dealers selected by the Corporation, out of the Freely Tradeable Common Shares issued by the Corporation for this purpose, such number of Freely Tradeable Common Shares that together with the cash payment of the Redemption Price, if any, is sufficient to yield net proceeds (after payment of all costs) to cover the amount of taxes required to be withheld, and shall remit same on behalf of the Corporation to the proper tax authorities in the manner and within the period of time prescribed for this purpose under applicable laws. |

Provided that the Trustee obtains confirmation from the Corporation that such opinion is satisfactory to it, it shall be entitled to rely on such opinion without further inquiry. |

4.10 | Right to Repay Principal Amount and Accrued Interest in Common Shares |
(a) | Subject to the receipt of any required regulatory approvals and the other provisions of this Section 4.10, the Corporation may, at its option, in exchange for or in lieu of repaying the Debentures in money, elect to satisfy its obligation to repay the principal amount of all or any portion of the principal amount of the Debentures outstanding, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, by issuing and delivering to holders on the Maturity Date of such Debentures that number of Freely Tradeable Common Shares obtained by dividing the principal amount of the Debentures (or applicable portion thereof to be satisfied by the issuance and delivery of Freely Tradeable Common Shares) together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon by 95% of the then Current Market Price of the Common Shares (which will be calculated based on the 20 consecutive trading days ending five trading days before the Maturity Date) (the “Common Share Repayment Right”). |
(b) | The Corporation shall exercise the Common Share Repayment Right by so specifying in the Maturity Notice, which shall be delivered to the Trustee and the holders of Debentures not more than 60 days and not less than 40 days prior to the Maturity Date, and which shall also specify the aggregate principal amount of Debentures in respect of which it is exercising the Common Share Repayment Right on the Maturity Date. |
(c) | The Corporation’s right to exercise the Common Share Repayment Right shall be conditional upon the following conditions being met on the Business Day preceding the Maturity Date: |
(i) | the issuance of the Common Shares on the exercise of the Common Share Repayment Right shall be made in accordance with Applicable Securities Legislation and such Common Shares shall be issued as Freely Tradeable Common Shares; |
(ii) | such additional Freely Tradeable Common Shares shall be listed on each stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed, the TSX, a national securities exchange in Canada or a U.S. Securities Exchange or quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of any registered national securities association; |
(iii) | the Corporation shall be a reporting issuer in good standing under Applicable Securities Legislation where the distribution of such Freely Tradeable Common Shares occurs; |
(iv) | no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; |
(v) | the Trustee shall have received an Officers’ Certificate stating that conditions (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above have been satisfied and setting forth the number of Common Shares to be delivered for each US$1,000 principal amount of Debentures and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date; and |
(vi) | the Trustee shall have received an opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Common Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered pursuant to the terms of this Indenture in payment of the principal amount of the Debentures outstanding will be validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable, that conditions (i) and (ii) above have been satisfied |
(d) | In the event that the Corporation duly exercises its Common Share Repayment Right, upon presentation and surrender of the Debentures for payment on the Maturity Date, at any place where a register is maintained pursuant to Article 3 or any other place specified in the Maturity Notice, the Corporation shall on or before 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the Maturity Date make the delivery to the Trustee for delivery to and on account of the holders, of certificates representing the Freely Tradeable Common Shares to which such holders are entitled. The Corporation shall also deposit with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay any charges or expenses which may be incurred by the Trustee in connection with the Common Share Repayment Right. Every such deposit shall be irrevocable. From the certificates so deposited in addition to amounts payable by the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.13, the Trustee shall pay or cause to be paid, to the holders of such Debentures, upon surrender of such Debentures, the principal amount of and premium (if any) on the Debentures to which they are respectively entitled on maturity and deliver to such holders the certificates to which such holders are entitled. The delivery of such certificates to the Trustee will satisfy and discharge the liability of the Corporation for the Debentures to which the delivery of certificates relates to the extent of the amount delivered (plus the amount of any certificates sold to pay applicable taxes in accordance with this Section 4.10) and such Debentures will thereafter to that extent not be considered as outstanding under this Indenture and such holder will have no other right in regard thereto other than to receive out of the certificates so delivered, the certificate(s) to which it is entitled. |
(e) | No fractional Freely Tradeable Common Shares shall be delivered upon the exercise of the Common Share Repayment Right but, in lieu thereof, the Corporation shall pay to the Trustee for the account of the holders, at the time contemplated in Section 4.10(d), the cash equivalent thereof determined on the basis of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Maturity Date (less any tax required to be deducted, if any). |
(f) | A holder shall be treated as the shareholder of record of the Freely Tradeable Common Shares issued on due exercise by the Corporation of its Common Share Repayment Right effective immediately after the close of business on the Maturity Date, and shall be entitled to all substitutions therefor, all income earned thereon or accretions thereto and all dividends or distributions (including distributions and dividends in kind) thereon and arising thereafter, and in the event that the Trustee receives the same, it shall hold the same in trust for the benefit of such holder. |
(g) | The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares |
(h) | The Corporation shall comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation regulating the issue and delivery of Freely Tradeable Common Shares upon exercise of the Common Share Repayment Right and shall cause to be listed and posted for trading such Freely Tradeable Common Shares on each stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed. |
(i) | The Corporation shall from time to time promptly pay, or make provision satisfactory to the Trustee for the payment of, all taxes and charges which may be imposed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof (except income tax, withholding tax or security transfer tax, if any) which shall be payable with respect to the issuance or delivery of Freely Tradeable Common Shares to holders upon exercise of the Common Share Repayment Right pursuant to the terms of the Debentures and of this Indenture. |
(j) | If the Corporation elects to satisfy its obligation to pay all or any portion of the principal amount of Debentures due on maturity together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon by issuing Freely Tradeable Common Shares in accordance with this Section 4.10 and if the amount (or any portion thereof) to which a holder is entitled is subject to withholding taxes and the amount of the cash payment of the amount due on maturity, if any, is insufficient to satisfy such withholding taxes, the Trustee, on the Written Direction of the Corporation but for the account of the holder, shall sell, through the investment banks, brokers or dealers selected by the Corporation, out of the Freely Tradeable Common Shares issued by the Corporation for this purpose, such number of Freely Tradeable Common Shares that together with the cash component of the amount due on maturity is sufficient to yield net proceeds (after payment of all costs) to cover the amount of taxes required to be withheld, and shall remit same on behalf of the Corporation to the proper tax authorities within the period of time prescribed for this purpose under applicable laws. |
(k) | Each certificate representing Freely Tradeable Common Shares issued in payment of the Debentures bearing the U.S. Legend, as well as all certificates issued in exchange for or in substitution of the foregoing securities, shall bear the U.S. Legend; provided that if such Freely Tradeable Common Shares are being sold in compliance with the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S and in compliance with Canadian local laws and regulations, and provided that the Corporation is a “foreign issuer” within the meaning of Regulation S at the time of sale, the U.S. Legend may be removed by providing a declaration to the Trustee, as registrar and transfer agent for the Common Shares, substantially as set forth in Schedule “E” hereto (or as the Corporation or the Trustee may prescribe from time to time), together with any other evidence reasonably requested by the Corporation or Trustee, which evidence may include an opinion of counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and satisfactory to the Trustee, to the effect that the transfer is being made in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S; and provided further that, if any such Freely Tradeable Common Shares are being sold in accordance with Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, the U.S. Legend may be removed by delivery to the Trustee, as registrar and transfer agent for the Common Shares, of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and satisfactory to the Trustee, that the U.S. Legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws. |

(a) | The holder of a Debenture desiring to convert such Debenture in whole or in part into Common Shares shall surrender such Debenture to the Trustee at either of its principal offices in the City of |
(b) | For the purposes of this Article, a Debenture shall be deemed to be surrendered for conversion on the date (herein called the “Date of Conversion”) on which it is so surrendered when the register of the Trustee is open and in accordance with the provisions of this Article or, in the case of a Global Debenture which the Trustee received notice of and all necessary documentation in respect of the exercise of the conversion rights and, in the case of a Debenture so surrendered by post or other means of transmission, on the date on which it is received by the Trustee at one of its offices specified in Section 6.4(a); provided that if a Debenture is surrendered for conversion on a day on which the register of Common Shares is closed, the person or persons entitled to receive Common Shares shall become the holder or holders of record of such Common Shares as at the date on which such registers are next reopened. |
(c) | Any part, being US$1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of a Debenture in a denomination in excess of US$1,000 may be converted as provided in this Article and all references in this Indenture to conversion of Debentures shall be deemed to include conversion of such parts. |
(d) | The holder of any Debenture of which only a part is converted shall, upon the exercise of his right of conversion surrender such Debenture to the Trustee in accordance with Section 6.4(a), and the Trustee shall cancel the same and shall without charge forthwith certify and deliver to the holder a new Debenture or Debentures in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted part of the principal amount of the Debenture so surrendered or, with respect to a Global Debenture, the Depository shall make notations on the Global Debentures of the principal amount thereof so converted. |
(e) | The holder of a Debenture surrendered for conversion in accordance with this Section 6.4 shall be entitled (subject to any applicable restriction on the right to receive interest on conversion of Debentures of any series) to receive accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof, in cash, up to but excluding the Date of Conversion and the Common Shares issued upon such conversion shall only participate in respect of distributions or dividends declared in favour of shareholders of record on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such holder shall become the holder of record of such Common Shares pursuant to Section 6.4(b), from which applicable date they will for all purposes be and be deemed to be issued and outstanding as fully paid and nonassessable Common |
6.5 | Adjustment of Conversion Price |
(a) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall (i) subdivide or redivide the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) issue Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution (other than the issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares who have elected to receive dividends or distributions in the form of Common Shares in lieu of cash dividends or cash distributions paid in the ordinary course on the Common Shares), the Conversion Price in effect on the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation or on the record date for such issue of Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution, as the case may be, shall in the case of any of the events referred to in (i) and (iii) above be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or dividend, or shall, in the case of any of the events referred to in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination or consolidation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 6.5(a) shall occur. Any such issue of Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been made on the record date for the dividend or distribution for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under subsections (c) and (d) of this Section 6.5. |
(b) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall fix a record date for the payment of a cash dividend or distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares in respect of any Applicable Period, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date and of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date minus the amount in cash per Common Share distributed to holders of Common Shares. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such cash dividend or distribution is not paid, the Conversion Price shall be re-adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed. |
(c) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of options, rights or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price of a Common Share on such record date, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional |
(d) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 6.5(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, binding share exchange, merger of the Corporation with or into any other Person or other entity or acquisition of the Corporation or other combination pursuant to which the Common Shares are converted into or acquired for cash, securities or other property; or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other Person (other than a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) or other entity or a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, any holder of a Debenture who has not exercised its right of conversion prior to the effective date of such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, such amount of cash or the number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the Person or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement, acquisition, combination or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made or which holders of Common Shares receive pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, as the case may be, that such holder of a Debenture would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the conversion right. If determined appropriate by the Board of Directors, to give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this Section 6.5(d), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing Person or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, enter into an indenture which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Indenture with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holder of Debentures to the end that the provisions set forth in this Indenture shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any cash, shares or other securities or property to which a holder of Debentures is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation and the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.5(d) shall be a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 16. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing Person or other entity and the Trustee shall provide for adjustments |
(e) | If the Corporation shall make a distribution to all holders of Common Shares of shares in the capital of the Corporation, other than Common Shares, or evidences of indebtedness or other assets of the Corporation, including securities (but excluding (x) any issuance of rights or warrants for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 6.5(c), and (y) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 6.5(b)) (the “Distributed Securities”), then in each such case (unless the Corporation distributes such Distributed Securities to the holders of Debentures on such dividend or distribution date (as if each holder had converted such Debenture into Common Shares immediately preceding the record date with respect to such distribution)) the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding the ex-distribution date fixed for the dividend or distribution shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding such ex-distribution date by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the five-day VWAP for the Common Shares immediately prior to the ex‑distribution date and of which the numerator shall be the five-day VWAP for the Common Shares for the first five trading days that occur immediately post the ex-distribution date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective five Business Days immediately after the ex-distribution date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. |
(f) | If any issuer bid made by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of Common Shares shall expire, then, if the issuer bid shall require the payment to shareholders of consideration per Common Share having a fair market value (determined as provided below) that exceeds the Current Market Price per Common Share on the last date (the “Expiration Date”) tenders could have been made pursuant to such issuer bid (as it may be amended) (the last time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the “Expiration Time”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding the close of business on the Expiration Date by a fraction of which (i) the denominator shall be the sum of (A) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration (the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee) payable to shareholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the issuer bid) of all Common Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the Common Shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Common Shares”) and (B) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding (less any Purchased Common Shares and excluding any Common Shares held in the treasury of the Corporation) at the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price per Common Share on the Expiration Date and (ii) the numerator of which shall be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding (including Purchased Common Shares but excluding any Common Shares held in the treasury of the Corporation) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Current Market Price per Common Share on the Expiration Date, such increase to become effective immediately preceding the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Date. In the event that the Corporation is obligated to purchase Common Shares pursuant to any such issuer bid, but the Corporation is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such purchases or any or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would have been in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually purchased, if any. If the application of this clause (f) of Section 6.5 to any issuer bid would result in a decrease in the Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such issuer bid under this clause (f). |
(g) | In any case in which this Section 6.5 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the holder of any Debenture converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such holder would, but for the provisions of this Section 6.5(g), have become the |
(h) | The adjustments provided for in this Section 6.5 are cumulative and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price then in effect; provided however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 6.5(h) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. |
(i) | For the purpose of calculating the number of Common Shares outstanding, Common Shares owned by or for the benefit of the Corporation shall not be counted. |
(j) | In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided in this Section 6.5, such question shall be conclusively determined by a firm of nationally recognized chartered accountants appointed by the Corporation and acceptable to the Trustee (who may be the Auditors of the Corporation); such accountants shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation and such determination shall be binding upon the Corporation, the Trustee, and the Debentureholders. |
(k) | In case the Corporation shall take any action affecting the Common Shares other than action described in this Section 6.5, which in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would materially affect the rights of Debentureholders, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in such manner and at such time, by action of the Board of Directors, subject to the prior written consent of the TSX (or such other exchange on which the Debentures are then listed), as the Board of Directors, in their sole discretion may determine to be equitable in the circumstances. Failure of the directors to make such an adjustment shall be conclusive evidence that they have determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances. |
(l) | Subject to the prior written consent of the TSX (or such other exchange on which the Debentures are then listed) no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made in respect of any event described in Sections 6.5(a), 6.5(b), 6.5(c), 6.5(e) or 6.5(f) other than the events described in 6.5(a)(i) or 6.5(a)(ii) if the holders of the Debentures are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms mutatis mutandis as if they had converted their Debentures prior to the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of such event. |
(m) | Except as stated above in this Section 6.5, no adjustment will be made in the Conversion Price for any Debentures as a result of the issuance of Common Shares at less than the Current Market Price for such Common Shares on the date of issuance or the then applicable Conversion Price. |
(n) | Subject to the terms of any particular series of Debentures, notwithstanding the foregoing, if holders of Debentures would otherwise be entitled to receive, upon conversion of the Debentures, any property (including cash) or securities that would not constitute “prescribed securities” for the purposes of clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) as it applied on December 31, 2007 (referred to herein as “ineligible consideration”), such holders shall not be entitled to receive such ineligible consideration but the Corporation or its successor or acquirer, as the case may be, shall have the right (at the sole option of the Corporation or such successor or acquirer, as the case may be) to deliver either such ineligible consideration or such “prescribed securities” with a market value (as conclusively determined by the Board of Directors) equal to the market value of such ineligible consideration. |

Such Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice shall provide that all or a portion of the Interest Obligation may be paid by the Corporation by the delivery of Common Shares to the Trustee and the subsequent sale of such Common Shares by the Trustee in accordance with this Section 10.1, and if only a portion of the Interest Obligation is to be paid in Common Shares, the Common Share Interest Payment Election shall state the portion to be paid in such manner and such portion to be paid directly in cash. |
(b) | Upon receipt of a Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice, the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Article 10 and such Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice, deliver Common Share Bid Requests to the investment banks, brokers or dealers identified by the Corporation, in its absolute discretion, in the Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice.

The Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice shall direct the Trustee to solicit and accept only, and each Common Share Bid Request shall provide that the acceptance of any bid is conditional on the acceptance of, sufficient bids to result in aggregate proceeds from such issue and sale of Common Shares which, together with the cash payments by the Corporation in lieu of fractional Common Shares, if any, equal the Interest Obligation on the Common Share Delivery Date. |

(e) | The amount received by a holder of a Debenture in respect of the Interest Obligation or the entitlement thereto will not be affected by whether or not the Corporation elects to satisfy the Interest Obligation pursuant to a Common Share Interest Payment Election. |
(f) | The Trustee shall inform the Corporation promptly following receipt of any bid or bids for Common Shares solicited pursuant to the Common Share Bid Requests. The Trustee shall accept such bid or bids as the Corporation, in its absolute discretion, shall direct by Written Direction of the Corporation, provided that the aggregate proceeds of all sales of Common Shares resulting from the acceptance of such bids (but not the income thereon), together with the amount of any cash payment by the Corporation in lieu of any fractional Common Shares, on the Common Share Delivery Date, must be equal to the related Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount in connection with any bids so accepted, the Corporation, the Trustee (if required by the Corporation in its absolute discretion) and the applicable bidders shall, not later than the Common Share Delivery Date, enter into Common Share Purchase Agreements and shall comply with all Applicable Securities Legislation, including the securities rules and regulations of any stock exchange on which the Debentures or Common Shares are then listed. The Corporation shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with the Common Share Purchase Agreements including the fees and commissions charged by the investment banks, brokers and dealers and the fees of the Trustee. |
(g) | Provided that: (i) all conditions specified in each Common Share Purchase Agreement to the closing of all sales thereunder have been satisfied, other than the delivery of the Common Shares to be sold thereunder against payment of the purchase price thereof; and (ii) the purchasers under each Common Share Purchase Agreement shall be ready, willing and able to perform thereunder, in each case on the Common Share Delivery Date, the Corporation shall, on the Common Share Delivery Date, deliver to the Trustee the Common Shares to be sold on such date, an amount in cash equal to the value of any fractional Common Shares and an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that all conditions precedent to such sales, including those set forth in this Indenture and in each Common Share Purchase Agreement, have been satisfied. Upon such deliveries, the Trustee shall consummate such sales on such Common Share Delivery Date by the delivery of the Common Shares to such purchasers against payment to the Trustee in immediately available funds of the purchase price therefor in an aggregate amount equal to the Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount (less any amount attributable to any fractional Common Shares), whereupon the sole right of a holder of Debentures to receive such holder’s portion of the Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount will be to receive same from the Trustee out of the proceeds of such sales of Common Shares plus any amount received by the Trustee from the Corporation attributable to any fractional Common Shares in full satisfaction of the Interest Obligation and the holder will have no further recourse to the Corporation in respect of the Interest Obligation. |
(h) | The Trustee shall, on the Common Share Delivery Date, use the sale proceeds of the Common Shares (together with any cash received from the Corporation in lieu of any fractional Common Shares) to purchase, on the direction of the Corporation in writing, Government Obligations which mature prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date and which the Trustee is required to hold until maturity (the “Common Share Proceeds Investment”) and shall, on such date, deposit the balance, if any, of such sale proceeds in an account established by the Corporation (and which shall be maintained by and subject to the control of the Trustee) (the “Interest Account”) for such Debentures. The Trustee shall hold such Common Share Proceeds Investment (but not income earned thereon) under |
(i) | Neither the making of a Common Share Payment Election nor the consummation of sales of Common Shares on a Common Share Delivery Date shall (i) result in the holders of the Debentures not being entitled to receive on the applicable Interest Payment Date cash in an aggregate amount equal to the Interest Obligation payable on such date or (ii) entitle such holders to receive any Common Shares in satisfaction of such Interest Obligation. |
(j) | No fractional Common Shares will be issued in satisfaction of interest but in lieu thereof the Corporation will satisfy such fractional interest by a cash payment equal to the market price of such fractional interest (less any tax required to be deducted). |
(k) | Any action by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be made at the written instruction of the Corporation. The Trustee shall only settle trades as instructed by the Corporation in writing. |

(iv) | The Stock Prices set forth in the table above will be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Price of the Initial Debentures is adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately preceding such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the denominator of which is the Conversion Price immediately preceding the adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the numerator of which is the Conversion Price as so adjusted. The number of additional Make Whole Premium Shares set forth in the table above will be adjusted in the same manner as the Conversion Price as set forth in Section 6.5 of the 2011 Indenture (read as required by this Indenture), other than as a result of an adjustment of the Conversion Price by adding the Make Whole Premium as described above. |
(v) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Date of Conversion of any Initial Debentures occurs during the period beginning on the 10th trading day prior to the Effective Date and ending at the close of business on the Effective Date, the holders of such Initial Debentures shall, on conversion of their Initial Debentures, only be entitled to receive that number of Make Whole Premium Shares (as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 6.5 of the 2011 Indenture (read as required by this Indenture)) on the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date and, for greater certainty, only if the Change of Control occurs. |
(vi) | The Make Whole Premium Shares shall be deemed to have been issued upon conversion of Initial Debentures on the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date. Section 6.5 of the 2011 Indenture (read as required by this Indenture) shall apply to such conversion and, for greater certainty, the former holders of Initial Debentures in respect of which the Make Whole Premium Shares are issuable shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the Make Whole Premium Shares, the number of shares or other securities or cash or other property of Molycorp or of the Person or other entity resulting from the transaction that constitutes the Cash Change of Control that such holders would have been entitled to receive if such holders had been the registered holders of the applicable number of Make Whole Premium Shares on the Effective Date. |
(vii) | Except as otherwise provided in this Section, all other provisions of the 2011 Indenture applicable to a conversion of Initial Debentures shall apply to a conversion of Initial Debentures during the Cash Change of Control Conversion Period. |
(a) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, Molycorp shall (i) subdivide or redivide the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) issue Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution (other than the issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares who have elected to receive dividends or distributions in the form of Common Shares in lieu of cash dividends or cash distributions paid in the ordinary course on the Common Shares), the Conversion Price in effect on the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation or on the record date for such issue of Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution, as the case may be, shall in the case of any of the events referred to in (i) and (iii) above be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or dividend, or shall, in the case |
(b) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, Molycorp shall fix a record date for the payment of a cash dividend or distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares in respect of any Applicable Period, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date and of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date minus the amount in cash per Common Share distributed to holders of Common Shares. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such cash dividend or distribution is not paid, the Conversion Price shall be re-adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed. |
(c) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, Molycorp shall fix a record date for the issuance of options, rights or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price of a Common Share on such record date, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered) by such Current Market Price per Common Share, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such options, rights or warrants are not so issued or any such options, rights or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be re-adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such options, rights or warrants were included in such fraction, as the case may be. |
(d) | If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of Molycorp other than as described in Section 6.5(a) of the 2011 Indenture (read as required by this Indenture) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, binding share exchange, merger of Molycorp with or into any other Person or other entity or acquisition of Molycorp or other combination pursuant to which the Common |
(e) | If Molycorp shall make a distribution to all holders of Common Shares of shares in the capital of Molycorp, other than Common Shares, or evidences of indebtedness or other assets of Molycorp, including securities (but excluding (x) any issuance of rights or warrants for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 6.5(c) of the 2011 Indenture (read as required by this Indenture), and (y) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 6.5(b) of the 2011 Indenture (read as required this |
(f) | If any issuer bid made by Molycorp or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of Common Shares shall expire, then, if the issuer bid shall require the payment to shareholders of consideration per Common Share having a fair market value (determined as provided below) that exceeds the Current Market Price per Common Share on the last date (the "Expiration Date") tenders could have been made pursuant to such issuer bid (as it may be amended) (the last time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the "Expiration Time"), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the |
(g) | In any case in which this Section shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, Molycorp may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the holder of any Debenture converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that Molycorp shall deliver to such holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such holder's right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such holder would, but for the provisions of this subsection (g), have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares pursuant to Section 6.4(b) of the 2011 Indenture (read as required by this Indenture). |
(h) | The adjustments provided for in this Section are cumulative and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no adjustment of the Conversion Price |
(i) | For the purpose of calculating the number of Common Shares outstanding, Common Shares owned by or for the benefit of Molycorp shall not be counted. |
(j) | In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided in this Section, such question shall be conclusively determined by a firm of nationally recognized chartered accountants appointed by Molycorp and acceptable to the Trustee (who may be the auditors of Molycorp); such accountants shall have access to all necessary records of Molycorp and such determination shall be binding upon Molycorp, the Corporation, the Trustee, and the Debentureholders. |
(k) | In case Molycorp shall take any action affecting the Common Shares other than action described in this Section 6.5 of the 2011 Indenture, which in the opinion of the board of directors of Molycorp, would materially affect the rights of Debentureholders, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in such manner and at such time, by action of the such board of directors, as it, in its sole discretion, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances. Failure of the board of directors of Molycorp to make such an adjustment shall be conclusive evidence that such board has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances. |
(l) | No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made in respect of any event described in Sections 6.5(a), 6.5(b), 6.5(c), 6.5(e) or 6.5(f) of the 2011 Indenture (each read as required by this Indenture) above other than the events described in 6.5(a)(i) or 6.5(a)(ii) of the 2011 Indenture (each read as required by this Indenture) if the holders of the Debentures are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms mutatis mutandis as if they had converted their Debentures prior to the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of such event. |
(m) | Except as stated above in this Section, no adjustment will be made in the Conversion Price for any Debentures as a result of the issuance of Common Shares at less than the Current Market Price for such Common Shares on the date of issuance or the then applicable Conversion Price. |
(n) | Subject to the terms of any particular series of Debentures, notwithstanding the foregoing, if holders of Debentures would otherwise be entitled to receive, upon conversion of the Debentures, any property (including cash) or securities that would not constitute "prescribed securities" for the purposes of clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) as it applied on December 31, 2007 (referred to herein as "ineligible consideration"), such holders shall not be entitled to receive such ineligible consideration but Molycorp or its successor or acquirer, as the case may be, shall have the right (at the sole option of Molycorp or such successor or acquirer, as the case may be) to deliver either such ineligible consideration or such "prescribed securities" with a market value (as conclusively determined by the board of directors of Molycorp) equal to the market value of such ineligible consideration. |
(a) | Molycorp may not, without the consent of the holders, consolidate with or amalgamate or merge with or into any Person (other than a directly or indirectly wholly-owned Subsidiary of Molycorp) or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Molycorp to another Person (other than a directly or indirectly wholly-owned Subsidiary of Molycorp) unless: |
(i) | the Person formed by such consolidation or into which Molycorp is amalgamated or merged, or the Person which acquires by sale, conveyance, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Molycorp is a corporation, organized and existing under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof or the laws of the United States or any state thereof and such corporation (if other than Molycorp or the continuing corporation resulting from the amalgamation of Molycorp with another corporation under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof or the United States or any state thereof) expressly assumes, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the obligations of Molycorp under the Debentures and this Indenture and the performance or observance of every covenant and provision of this Indenture and the Debentures required on the part of Molycorp to be performed or observed and the conversion rights shall be provided for in accordance with Article 4 of the 2011 Indenture, by supplemental indenture satisfactory in form to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee, by the Person (if other than Molycorp or the continuing corporation resulting from the amalgamation of Molycorp with another corporation under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof or the laws of the United States or any state therof) formed by such consolidation or into which Molycorp shall have been merged or by the Person which shall have acquired Molycorp's assets; |
(ii) | after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing; and |
(iii) | if Molycorp or the continuing corporation resulting from the amalgamation or merger of Molycorp with another Person under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof or the laws of the United States or any state thereof will not be the resulting, continuing or surviving corporation, Molycorp shall have, at or prior to the effective date of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an opinion of counsel to the Trustee or counsel to Molycorp, each stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer complies with this Article and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture complies with this Article, and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. |
(b) | For purposes of the foregoing, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions) of the properties or assets of one or more Subsidiaries of Molycorp (other than to Molycorp or another wholly-owned Subsidiary of Molycorp), which, |

(b) | for any other purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture. |
(a) | employ or retain and act and rely on the opinion or advice of or information obtained from any solicitor, auditor, valuer, engineer, surveyor, appraiser or other expert, whether obtained by the Trustee or by Molycorp, or otherwise, and shall not be liable for acting, or refusing to act, in good faith on any such opinion or advice and may pay proper and reasonable compensation for all such |
(b) | employ such agents and other assistants as it may reasonably require for the proper discharge of its duties hereunder, and may pay reasonable remuneration for all services performed for it (and shall be entitled to receive reasonable remuneration for all services performed by it) in the discharge of the trusts hereof and compensation for all disbursements, costs and expenses made or incurred by it in the discharge of its duties hereunder and in the management of the trusts hereof and any solicitors employed or consulted by the Trustee may, but need not be, solicitors for Molycorp. |
(a) | Molycorp shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its services hereunder as agreed separately by Molycorp and the Trustee, and shall pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in the administration or execution of its duties under this Indenture (including the reasonable and documented compensation and disbursements of its counsel and all other advisers and assistants not regularly in its employ), both before any default hereunder and thereafter until all duties of the Trustee under this Indenture shall be finally and fully performed. The Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. |
(b) | Molycorp hereby indemnifies and saves harmless the Trustee and its directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all loss, damages, charges, expenses, claims, demands, actions or liability whatsoever which may be brought against the Trustee or which it may suffer or incur as a result of or arising out of the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder save only in the event of gross negligence, or the wilful misconduct or bad faith of the Trustee. This indemnity will survive the termination or discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. |
(c) | Molycorp need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee through gross negligence or bad faith or breach of the Trustee's duties hereunder. |

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in ASU 2011-05. ASU 2011-12 defers the requirement that companies present reclassification adjustments for each component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) in both net income and other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. Companies will continue to be required to present amounts reclassified out of AOCI on the face of the financial statements or disclose those amounts in the notes to the financial statements. During the deferral period, there is no requirement to separately present or disclose the reclassification adjustments into net income. For the period ended June 30, 2012, the Company did not have any reclassification adjustments for components of AOCI. In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment. Under this updated guidance, an entity will have the option to first assess qualitatively whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is necessary. The update does not change how an entity performs the two-step impairment test under the current guidance. This ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this updated guidance to have a significant impact on its financial statements. |

Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies
The Company has certain operating leases for office space, trailers and certain equipment. Remaining annual minimum payments under these leases at June 30, 2012 were as follows:
In connection with the Molycorp Mountain Pass facility modernization and expansion and future operations, the Company entered into contractual commitments for the purchase of materials and services from various vendors. As a result of the Molycorp Canada acquisition, the Company assumed other purchase obligations totaling $8.5 million at June 30, 2012, which are expected to be settled between 2012 and 2013. Future payments for all purchase commitments at June 30, 2012 were as follows:
As part of its ongoing remediation efforts at the Molycorp Mountain Pass facility, the Company identified liner defects in three of the onsite evaporation ponds in 2011. These defects led to minor groundwater contamination issues that are limited to a small area directly underneath the evaporation ponds. In order to remediate this issue, the Company will replace the primary lining system and might have to install a groundwater recovery system. The Company estimated the cost of these items at between $2.4 million and $4.6 million, which will be treated as capital expenditures and are included in the purchase obligations table above. The Company is in the process of finalizing the remediation plans with the Regional Water Quality Control Board.
Certain Molycorp Mountain Pass facility employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with the United Steelworkers of America that expires on March 15, 2015. At June 30, 2012, 206 employees, or approximately 60% of the Company’s workforce at the Molycorp Mountain Pass facility, were covered by this collective bargaining agreement. At June 30, 2012, 176 employees, or approximately 30% of the workforce at the Company’s Molycorp Silmet facility, were unionized employees. The contract with the labor union in Estonia was renewed in February 2012.
At June 30, 2012, Molycorp had placed $28.8 million of surety bonds with California state and regional agencies to secure its Mountain Pass facility closure and reclamation obligations.
In February 2012, a purported class action lawsuit captioned, Angelo Albano, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Molycorp, Inc., et al., was filed against the Company and certain of its executive officers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. This federal court action alleges, among other things, that the Company and those officers violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in connection with statements relating to its third quarter fiscal 2011 financial results and fourth quarter 2011 production guidance that the Company had filed with or furnished to the SEC, or otherwise made available to the public. The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified damages and other relief. The Company believes the allegations are without merit and that it has valid defenses to such allegations. The Company intends to defend this action vigorously. The Company is unable to provide meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of these claims may impact its future consolidated financial position or results of operations. Seven stockholder derivative lawsuits have been filed in three different jurisdictions purportedly on behalf of Molycorp, Inc., against certain of its directors, certain of its officers, and certain of its private equity investors. These cases have been filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery, the U.S. District Court in Colorado, and the District Court in Arapahoe County, Colorado. They are captioned: Gaines v. Smith et al., Case No. 7282 (Del. Ch. Feb. 12, 2012); Paskowitz v. Smith et al., Case No. 7319 (Del. Ch. Mar. 9, 2012); Wilson v. Smith et al., No. 7395-VCN (Del. Ch. April 4, 2012); Wells v. Smith et al., No. 1:12-cv-00447-WJM (D. Colo. Feb. 21, 2012); Swaggerty v. Smith et al., No. 12-cv-00589-CMA-KLM (D. Colo. Mar. 7, 2012); Clem v. Smith et al., No. 12 CV 392 (Arapahoe Cnty., Colo. Feb. 24, 2012); and Nationwide Consulting, Inc. v. Smith et al., No. 12 CV 448 (Arapahoe Cnty., Colo. Mar. 5, 2012). The Clem and Nationwide cases, which were previously consolidated under the caption Clem v. Smith et al., No. 12 CV 392 (Arapahoe Cnty., Colo.), have been voluntarily dismissed without prejudice. The Wells and Swaggerty cases have both been dismissed without prejudice in favor of the lawsuits proceeding in the Delaware Court of Chancery. As a result, plaintiffs in the Wells and Swaggerty cases filed notices of appeal before the 10th Circuit. The derivative complaints challenge among other things certain sales of stock by officers, directors and private equity firms, and certain Molycorp corporate acquisitions during 2011. The complaints assert causes of action for: (1) alleged breaches of fiduciary duty, including the duties of loyalty and due care; (2) alleged unjust enrichment; (3) alleged waste of corporate assets; and (4) alleged “abuse of control.” On behalf of Molycorp, the plaintiffs in the derivative actions seek, among other things, monetary damages, restitution, an accounting, and certain changes to corporate governance procedures. The defendants have filed a motion in each case seeking to consolidate the derivative actions in one jurisdiction, and have expressed a preference for the Delaware Court of Chancery. |

Segment Information | Segment Information As a result of the Molycorp Canada acquisition on June 11, 2012, management has temporarily organized the Company into four operating segments: Molycorp Mountain Pass; Molycorp Silmet; Molycorp Metals and Alloys (“MMA”); and Molycorp Canada. As the Company further integrates Molycorp Canada operations, management anticipates organizing the Company into different reportable segments in future periods. Molycorp Mountain Pass owns and operates the Molycorp Mountain Pass facility. Molycorp Silmet, which was acquired on April 1, 2011, produces REO and rare metals at the Company's manufacturing facility located in Sillamäe, Estonia. MMA, which was acquired on April 15, 2011, manufactures neodymium and samarium magnet alloy and other specialty alloy products at the Company's facility in Tolleson, Arizona. Molycorp Canada manufactures Neo Powders, which are used to make bonded magnets for a variety of electronic and mechanical products such as micro motors, precision motors, sensors and other applications requiring high levels of magnetic strength, flexibility, small size and reduced weight. Molycorp Canada produces Neo Powders through its wholly owned manufacturing facilities in Tianjin, China and Korat, Thailand. Molycorp Canada also manufactures and distributes rare earths and zirconium-based engineered products, as well as other rare metals and their compounds. The rare earths and zirconium-based engineered products are primarily supplied to the automotive catalyst, electronics, ceramic and glass industries. Rare metals from the Molycorp Canada segment are primarily used in the wireless, light-emitting diode, flat panel display, turbine, solar and catalyst industries. Molycorp Canada produces rare earths and zirconium-based engineered products, and other rare metals and their compounds, through its joint ventures and at its majority owned manufacturing facilities in Jiangsu Province, China; Shandong Province, China; Stade, Germany; Sagard, Germany and Quapaw, Oklahoma, and its wholly owned manufacturing facilities in Peterborough, Ontario; Napanee, Ontario; Blanding, Utah and the Hyeongok Industrial Zone in South Korea. The following tables provide operating and financial information of the four operating segments for the three months ended and at June 30, 2012, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 (the information for Molycorp Canada is for the period from June 12, 2012 through June 30, 2012):
