3.  
FORM OF THE BONDS AND ISSUE OF THE BONDS
 
3.1  
The Global Bond
 
The Bonds will initially be represented by a global bond in registered form (the “Global Bond”) in the principal amount of the Bonds.  A bond certificate (“Certificate”) will be issued to each Bondholder in respect of its registered holding of Bonds. Each Certificate will be numbered serially with an identifying number which will be recorded on the relevant Certificate and in the register of bondholders which the Issuer will procure will be kept by the Registrar.  The Registrar (or its agent on its behalf) shall, after checking that the Global Bond has been recorded in the Register correctly, authenticate the Global Bond upon the written order of the Issuer and arrange for its delivery to the Common Depositary. The Global Bond will be registered in the name of a nominee of the Common Depositary. The Issuer shall then deposit, or procure to be deposited, the Global Bond with the Common Depositary on terms that such Common Depositary shall hold the same for the account of the persons who would otherwise be entitled to receive the Bonds represented by the Global Bond and successors in title to such persons as appearing in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream for the time being. Upon the Issuer’s issue and delivery of the Global Bond in accordance with Clause 3.5, Euroclear and Clearstream will credit each subscriber of Bonds with a principal amount of Bonds equal to the principal amount thereof for which such subscriber has subscribed and paid. The Global Bond need not be security printed. The holders of the Bonds evidenced by the Global Bond shall, subject to the Conditions, in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Trust Deed as individual Bonds evidenced by definitive Bonds.
 
3.2  
Definitive Bonds
 
The definitive Bonds, if issued, shall be in registered form and in denominations of US$200,000 or an integral multiple thereof, will be security printed in accordance with all applicable legal and stock exchange requirements and will be substantially in the form set out in Schedule 1 and endorsed with the Conditions.
 
3.3  
Signature
 
The Global Bond (and the definitive Bonds, if issued) shall be signed manually or in facsimile by one or more Authorised Officer(s) of the Issuer duly authorised for the purpose or manually or in facsimile by any duly authorised attorney of the Issuer and authenticated manually by or on behalf of the Registrar. The Issuer may use the facsimile signature of any person who at the date of this Trust Deed is an Authorised Officer of the Issuer even if at the time of issue of any Bonds (including the Global Bond) such person no longer holds such office. Bonds represented by any certificates or definitive Bonds (including the Global Bond) so executed and authenticated will be binding and valid obligations of the Issuer.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
10
 
 

 
 
 
3.4  
Redemption
 
Upon full or partial redemption of any of the Bonds for any reason, a notation will be made by the Registrar in the register reflecting such event (or, in the case of any definitive Bonds that are outstanding, such definitive Bonds shall be surrendered to the Registrar and, in the case of partial redemption, new definitive Bonds shall thereupon be issued in appropriate amounts).
 
3.5  
Issue
 
Issue and delivery of the Bonds shall be complete on the issue and delivery of the Global Bond to the Common Depositary or to a custodian/nominee thereof by, or at the order of, the Issuer and completion of the Register by or on behalf of the Registrar.
 
3.6  
Entitlement to treat holder as owner
 
A Bondholder will (save as otherwise required by law) be treated as the absolute owner of the relevant Bond for all purposes (whether or not it is overdue and regardless of any notice of ownership, trust or any interest in it or any writing on it or theft or loss of any definitive Bond or certificate issued in respect of it) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder. All payments made to any such holders of a Bond in definitive form or the holder of the Global Bond shall be valid and to the extent of the sums so paid effective to satisfy and discharge the liability of the Issuer and/or the Trustee for the equivalent amount which is payable in respect of the same.
 
4.  
STAMP DUTIES AND TAXES
 
4.1  
Stamp duties
 
The Issuer will pay any stamp, issue, registration, transfer, documentary or other similar taxes and duties, including interest and penalties, payable in Belgium, Luxembourg, Canada or the United Kingdom in respect of the creation, issue and offering of the Bonds, the execution or delivery of this Trust Deed and the deposit of any definitive Bonds and Conversion Notices for the conversion of Bonds and the issue and delivery of Common Shares following such deposit, except for the taxes and duties required to be paid by Bondholders under Condition 7.8 (Procedure for Exercise of Conversion Rights and Settlement Method). The Issuer will also indemnify the Trustee and the Bondholders from and against all stamp, issue, registration, transfer, documentary or other taxes and duties paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with any action taken by or on behalf of the Trustee or, as the case may be, the Bondholders to enforce the obligations of the Issuer under this Trust Deed or the Bonds. The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for: (a) determining whether a Bondholder or the Issuer is liable to pay any Taxes or the amounts payable (if any) in connection with Condition 7.8 (Procedure for Exercise of Conversion Rights and Settlement Method); (b) any failure by any Bondholder or the Issuer to make any such payment to the relevant authorities; or (c) determining the sufficiency or insufficiency of any amounts so paid.

In such event, this Trust Deed and the Bonds will be read accordingly.

8.1  
Declaration of Trust
 
All monies received by the Trustee in respect of the Bonds or amounts payable under this Trust Deed will, despite any appropriation of all or part of them by the Issuer, be held by the Trustee in trust to apply them:
 
8.1.1  
first, in payment or satisfaction of all invoiced costs, charges, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee and the Share Trustee-Custodian (including remuneration payable to the Trustee and the Share Trustee-Custodian) in carrying out their functions under this Trust Deed;

8.2  
Accumulation
 
If the amount of the moneys at any time available for payment in respect of the Bonds under Clause 8.1 is less than 10 per cent. of the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, the Trustee may, at its absolute discretion, invest such moneys. The Trustee may retain such investments and accumulate the resulting income until the investments and the accumulations, together with any other funds for the time being under the control of the Trustee and available for such payment, amount to at least 10 per cent. of the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding and then such investments, accumulations and funds (after deduction of, or provision for, any applicable taxes) will be applied as specified in Clause 8.1.

Investment
 
Monies held by the Trustee may, in the Trustee’s absolute discretion, be invested in its name or under its control in any investments or other assets anywhere, for the time being authorised by English law for the investment by trustees of trust monies, whether or not they produce income or deposited in its name or under its control at such bank or other financial institution in such currency as the Trustee may, in its absolute discretion, think fit and the Trustee may at any time vary or transfer any of such investments for or into other such investments or convert any monies so deposited into any other currency. If that bank or institution is the Trustee or a subsidiary, holding or associated company of the Trustee, it need only account for an amount of interest calculated by reference to the rate of interest which at the relevant time would be payable by it on such a deposit to an independent customer. The Trustee may at any time vary or transpose any such investments or assets or convert any monies so deposited into any other currency, and will not be responsible for any resulting loss, whether by depreciation in value, change in exchange rates or otherwise.

The Bondholders may by Extraordinary Resolution remove any Trustee,
 
provided that in either case the retirement or removal of a sole trust corporation will not become effective until a trust corporation is appointed as successor Trustee.

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right of Bondholders under this Trust Deed and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then and in every such case, the Issuer and the Trustee, subject to any determination of the proceedings shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Bondholders shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

POWERS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE
 
Except as otherwise provided in this Trust Deed, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, the Share Trustee-Custodian or to the Bondholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

CURRENCY INDEMNITY

21.2  
Extent of discharge
 
Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than the Contractual Currency (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgement or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the insolvency, winding-up or dissolution of the Issuer or otherwise) by the Trustee or any Bondholder in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuer will only discharge the Issuer to the extent of the Contractual Currency amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so).
 
21.3  
Indemnity
 
If the Contractual Currency amount is less than the Contractual Currency amount expressed to be due to the recipient under this Trust Deed or the Bonds, the Issuer will indemnify it against any loss sustained by it as a result.

21.4  
Indemnities separate
 
The indemnity in this Clause 21.4 and the indemnity in Clause 21.3 (Indemnity) constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Trust Deed, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Trustee and/or any Bondholder and will continue in full force and effect despite any judgement, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under this Trust Deed and/or the Bonds or any judgement or order.

23.3  
Return of Monies Held by Trustee or Agents

25.  
COMMON SHARE INTEREST PAYMENT ELECTION
 
25.1  
Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and all applicable regulatory approvals have been obtained (including any required approval of any stock exchange on which the Bonds or Common Shares are then listed), the Issuer shall have the right, from time to time, to make a Common Share Interest Payment Election in respect of any Interest Obligation by delivering a Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice to the Share Trustee-Custodian (with a copy to the Trustee and the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent) no later than the earlier of (i) the date required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange on which the Bonds or Common Shares are then listed, or (ii) 30 Business Days preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
40
 
 

 
 
 
25.2  
Upon receipt of a Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice, the Share Trustee-Custodian shall, provided that all applicable regulatory approvals have been obtained and in accordance with this Clause 25 and such Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice, deliver Common Share Bid Requests in a form to be provided by the Issuer and satisfactory to the Share Trustee-Custodian, acting reasonably, to the investment banks, brokers or dealers identified by the Issuer, in the Issuer's absolute discretion, in the Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice. In connection with the Common Share Interest Payment Election, the Share Trustee-Custodian shall have the power to:
 
25.2.1  
accept delivery of the Common Shares from the Issuer and process the Common Shares in accordance with the Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice;
 
25.2.2  
accept delivery of bids with respect to, and facilitate the settlement of such sales of, such Common Shares, each as the Issuer shall direct in its absolute discretion through the investment banks, brokers or dealers identified by the Issuer in the Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice;
 
25.2.3  
require the Agents, so far as permitted by applicable law, to act as agents of the Share Trustee-Custodian under this Trust Deed and the Bonds, in relation to a Common Share Interest Payment Election, mutatis mutandis, on the terms of the Agency Agreement (save that the Share Trustee- Custodian’s liability under any provisions thereof for the indemnification, remuneration and payment of out-of-pocket expenses of the Agents shall be limited to the amounts for the time being held by the Share Trustee-Custodian on the trusts of these presents relating to the relative Bonds and Common Share Proceeds and available for such purpose);
 
25.2.4  
procure delivery of the Common Share Proceeds to holders of Bonds sufficient to satisfy the Interest Obligation; and
 
25.2.5  
subject to the Share Trustee-Custodian's prior consent, perform any other action necessarily incidental thereto as directed by the Issuer in its absolute discretion.
 
The Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice shall direct the Share Trustee-Custodian to deliver and accept receipt only, and each Common Share Bid Request shall provide that the acceptance of any bid by the Issuer 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 Issuer in lieu of fractional Common Shares, if any, equals the aggregate amount of the Interest Obligation on the Common Share Delivery Date.
 
25.3  
The Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice shall provide for, and all bids shall be subject to, the right of the Issuer, by delivering written notice to the Share Trustee-Custodian at any time prior to the consummation of such delivery and sale of the Common Shares on the Common Share Delivery Date, to withdraw the Common Share Interest Payment Election (which shall have the effect of withdrawing each related Common Share Bid Request and terminating any Common Share Purchase Agreement), whereupon the Issuer shall be obliged to pay in cash  the Interest Obligation in respect of which the Common Share Interest Payment Election Notice has been delivered. The Share Trustee-Custodian shall be fully indemnified by the Issuer in respect of any withdrawal of a Common Share Interest Payment Election or any termination of bids or contracts for the issuance or sale of Common Shares entered into by the Share Trustee-Custodian on behalf of the Issuer.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
41
 
 

 
 
 
25.4  
Any sale of Common Shares pursuant to this Clause 25 may be made to investment bankers, brokers or dealers identified by the Issuer whose bids are solicited, but all such sales with respect to a particular Common Share Interest Payment Election shall take place concurrently on the Common Share Delivery Date.
 
25.5  
The amount received by a holder of a Bond in respect of the Interest Obligation or the entitlement thereto will not be affected by whether or not the Issuer elects to satisfy the Interest Obligation pursuant to a Common Share Interest Payment Election.
 
25.6  
Provided that the aggregate proceeds of all sales of Common Shares resulting from the acceptance of such bids by the Issuer, together with the amount of any cash payment by the Issuer in lieu of any fractional Common Shares, on the Common Share Delivery Date, are equal to the related Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount in connection with any bids so accepted, the Issuer 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 Bonds or Common Shares are then listed. The Issuer 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 and expenses of the Share Trustee-Custodian.
 
25.7  
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, the Issuer shall, on the Common Share Delivery Date, deliver to the Share Trustee-Custodian the Common Shares to be delivered for settlement on such date, an amount in cash equal to the value of any fractional Common Shares and a certificate of the Issuer signed by two Authorised Officers on behalf of the Issuer, upon which the Share Trustee-Custodian may act and rely absolutely without further inquiry, to the effect that all conditions precedent to such sales, including those set forth in this Trust Deed and in each Common Share Purchase Agreement, have been satisfied. Upon such deliveries, the Share Trustee-Custodian shall deliver the Common Shares and facilitate the settlement of such sales on such Common Share Delivery Date by the delivery of the Common Shares to such purchasers against payment to the Share Trustee-Custodian 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 Bonds to receive such holder's portion of the Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount will be to receive the same from the Share Trustee-Custodian out of the proceeds of such sales of Common Shares plus any amount received by the Share Trustee-Custodian from the Issuer attributable to any fractional Common Shares (the “Common Share Proceeds”) in full satisfaction of the Interest Obligation and the holder will have no further recourse to the Issuer in respect of the Interest Obligation.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
42
 
 

 
 
 
25.8  
The Share Trustee-Custodian shall, on the Common Share Delivery Date, or as soon as practicable thereafter, deposit the Common Share Proceeds in an account established by the Issuer (and which shall be maintained by and subject to the control of the Share Trustee-Custodian) (the “Interest Account”) for such Bonds. The Share Trustee-Custodian shall hold such Common Share Proceeds (but not income earned thereon) under its exclusive control in an irrevocable trust for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds. On the Interest Payment Date, the Share Trustee-Custodian shall procure the payment of the funds held in the Interest Account to the holders of record of the Bonds on the Interest Payment Date (less any taxes required to be deducted or withheld) and, provided that there is no Event of Default, shall remit amounts, if any, in respect of income earned on the Common Share Proceeds or otherwise in excess of the Common Share Interest Payment Election Amount to the Issuer.   Neither the making of a Common Share Interest Payment Election nor the consummation of sales of Common Shares on a Common Share Delivery Date shall (i) result in the holders of the Bonds 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.  No fractional Common Shares will be issued in satisfaction of interest but in lieu thereof the Issuer 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, if any).
 
25.9  
The Share Trustee-Custodian hereby declares and confirms that it will hold the Common Share Proceeds for the benefit of the Bondholders as bare trustee and the Bondholders will accordingly be tenants in common of such Common Share Proceeds to the extent (and not otherwise) of the Common Share Proceeds corresponding to the Interest Obligation owed to each Bondholder. For the avoidance of doubt, in acting hereunder, the Share Trustee-Custodian shall have only those duties, obligations and responsibilities expressly specified in this Trust Deed and the Conditions and, other than holding the Common Share Proceeds as bare trustee as aforesaid, does not assume any relationship of trust for or with the Bondholders, the Issuer or any other person except that any funds received by the Share Trustee-Custodian for the payment of any amount due, in accordance with the Conditions, as an Interest Obligation shall, be held by it in trust for the relevant Bondholder failing whom, the Issuer as provided in Clause 25.9 until duly paid thereto.
 
25.10  
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Clause 25, the Share Trustee-Custodian shall not be required to take any action pursuant to this Clause 25 if such action would not be in compliance with applicable securities legislation and the rules and regulations of any stock exchange on which the Bonds or Common Shares are then listed.

26.  
ENFORCEMENT
 
26.1  
Enforcement
 
Subject at all times to Condition 2.2, at any time after the Bonds have become due and repayable, the Trustee may, at its discretion and without further notice, take such steps, actions or proceedings against the Issuer as it may think fit to enforce repayment of the Bonds and to enforce the provisions of this Trust Deed, but it will not be bound to take any such steps, actions or proceedings unless (a) it shall have been so requested in writing by the holders of not less than 25 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding or so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution and (b) it shall have been indemnified, prefunded and/or secured to its satisfaction. No holder of the Bonds will be entitled to proceed directly against the Issuer, unless the Trustee, having become bound to do so, fails to do so within a reasonable time period (which time period shall be not less than 60 days) and such failure is continuing and no direction inconsistent with such written request or Extraordinary Resolution has been given to the Trustee during such time period by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Bonds.
 
27.  
GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
 
27.1  
Governing law

The courts of England and Wales are to have non-exclusive jurisdiction to settle any disputes which may arise out of or in connection with this Trust Deed, the Conditions or the Bonds, including any non-contractual obligations arising out of, or in connection with, this Trust Deed, the Conditions or the Bonds, and accordingly any legal action or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Trust Deed, the Conditions or the Bonds (“Proceedings”) may be brought in such courts. The Issuer irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and waives any objections to Proceedings in such courts on the ground of venue or on the ground that the Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum. This submission is for the benefit of the Trustee, the Share Trustee-Custodian and each of the Bondholders and shall not limit the right of any of them to take Proceedings in any other court of competent jurisdiction nor shall the taking of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction (whether concurrently or not).
 
27.3  
Service of process
 
The Issuer irrevocably appoints Fasken Martineau LLP of 17 Hanover Square, London, W1S 1HU, UK as its authorised agent for service of process in England. Subject to applicable law, such service shall be deemed to be completed on delivery to such process agent (whether or not it is forwarded to and received by the Issuer). The Issuer will procure that, so long as any of the Bonds is outstanding, there shall be in force an appointment of such a person with an office in England with authority to accept service as aforesaid on behalf of the Issuer and, failing such appointment within 15 days after demand by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Trustee shall be entitled by notice to the Issuer (and at the cost of the Issuer) as the case may be, to appoint such person. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be required to provide such information on more than one occasion in any calendar month. The Trustee will not make and shall not be deemed to have made any representation and shall bear no responsibility as to the correctness of the stated amount contained in any notice provided under this Clause 29.

The issue of the US$150,000,000. 6.5 per cent.

The statements set out in these Terms and Conditions (the “Conditions”) are summaries of, and are subject to, the detailed provisions of the Trust Deed, which includes the form of the Bonds. The Bondholders are entitled to the benefit of, are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions of the Trust Deed and those provisions applicable to them which will be contained in the Agency Agreement to be dated on the Closing Date (the “Agency Agreement”) relating to the Bonds between the Issuer, the Trustee and Elavon Financial Services Limited, UK Branch in its capacity as principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent (the “Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent”, which expression shall include any successor as Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent under the Agency Agreement) and any other Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents for the time being (such persons, together with the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent, being referred to below as the “Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents”, which expression shall include their successors as Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents under the Agency Agreement) and any other paying, transfer and conversion agent appointed under these Conditions, and the registrar named therein (the “Registrar” which expression shall include any successor registrar under the Agency Agreement).
 
Copies of each of the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement are available for inspection during normal business hours at the registered office for the time being of the Trustee (being at the Closing Date at 125 Old Broad Street, London EC2N 1AR, United Kingdom), and at the specified offices of the Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents and the Registrar.
 
Capitalised terms used but not defined in these Conditions shall have the meanings provided in the Trust Deed unless, in any case, the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise stated.
 
 
1.  
FORM, DENOMINATION, TITLE AND STATUS
 
1.1

EU1/ 52179183.13
48
 
 

 
 
 
1.2  
Title
 
Title to the Bonds will pass by transfer and registration (as described in Conditions 5 and 4, respectively). The Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents will (except as otherwise required by law or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction) deem and treat the registered holder of any Bond as the absolute owner thereof (whether or not it is overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership, trust or any interest in it or writing on, or the theft or loss of, the Certificate issued in respect of it) and no person will be held liable for so treating the holder.
 
1.3  
Status
 
The Bonds constitute senior, direct, unconditional, and (subject to Condition 2.1) unsecured obligations of the Issuer and shall at all times rank pari passu and rateably without any preference among themselves. The Bonds will rank senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer and shall rank at least pari passu (other than in respect of Secured Indebtedness pursuant to Condition 2.2) with its other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, save for such exceptions as may be provided by applicable legislation and by provisions of law that are mandatory and of general application.
 
2.  
NEGATIVE PLEDGE AND SUBORDINATION
 
2.1  
Negative Pledge
 
So long as any of the Bonds remains Outstanding, the Issuer will not, and shall procure that none of its Restricted Subsidiaries will, create or permit to subsist any Encumbrance (other than Permitted Encumbrances) upon the whole or any part of its undertaking, assets or revenues, present or future, to secure any Indebtedness upon any Property of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, whether owned at the Closing Date or thereafter acquired unless, at the same time or prior thereto, the obligations of the Issuer under the Bonds and the Trust Deed:
 
 
(a)
in the case of Encumbrances securing Subordinated Indebtedness, are secured in priority and seniority to such Encumbrances to the satisfaction of the Trustee;
 
 
(b)
in all other cases are secured equally and rateably therewith to the satisfaction of the Trustee; or
 
 
(c)
have the benefit of such other security, guarantee, indemnity or other arrangement as the Trustee in its absolute discretion shall deem to be not materially less beneficial to the Bondholders or as shall be approved by an Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Trust Deed) of the Bondholders.
 
2.2  
Subordination
 
2.2.1

The fact that any such payment is prohibited by Condition 2.2.2 or 2.2.5 shall not prevent the failure to make such payment from being an Event of Default hereunder.

Such agreement shall be conclusive evidence that the indebtedness specified therein is Secured Indebtedness, however, nothing herein shall impair the rights of any holder of Secured Indebtedness who has not entered into such an agreement.
 
2.2.8  
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Condition 2.2 or any provision in the Trust Deed or in the Bonds contained, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Secured Indebtedness or of any default in the payment thereof or of any fact that would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Issuer, any Bondholder or from the holder of any Secured Indebtedness or from the representative of any such holder.
 
2.2.9  
The Trustee is entitled to all the rights set forth in this Condition 2.2 with respect to any Secured Indebtedness at the time held by it or for which it acts as trustee, to the same extent as any other holder of Secured Indebtedness, and nothing in these Conditions or the Trust Deed deprives the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.
 
2.2.10  
No right of any present or future holder of any Secured Indebtedness to enforce the subordination herein will at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Issuer or by any non-compliance by the Issuer with the terms, provisions and covenants of the Trust Deed, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

2.2.11  
For greater certainty, the provisions of this Condition 2.2 are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Bondholders, on the one hand, and the holders of Secured Indebtedness, on the other hand. The rights of holders of the Convertible Subordinated Debentures and all other holders of Subordinated Indebtedness are subordinated to the Bonds.
 
2.2.12  
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in these Conditions should affect or prejudice the payment of any costs, expenses, fees or liabilities incurred by the Trustee in its personal capacity or the remuneration of the Trustee or the rights and remedies of the Trustee in respect thereof and in such capacity the Trustee shall rank as an unsubordinated creditor of the Issuer.

Conversion Right
 
Subject to and as provided in these Conditions, each Bond shall entitle the holder to convert (a “Conversion Right”) such Bond in accordance with, and subject to, the settlement provisions of Condition 7.8.
 
The number of shares of Reference Stock to be issued on exercise of a Conversion Right in respect of each US$200,000 in principal amount of Bonds shall be determined by dividing US$200,000 by the Conversion Price in effect on the relevant Conversion Date.  No fractional Common Shares shall be issued, and any fractional Common Share resulting from the conversion will be rounded down to the next whole Common Share.
 
The initial conversion price is US$9.3762 per Common Share (being CAD$10.2819 translated into USD at the Fixed Exchange Rate) (the “Initial Conversion Price”).
 
The Initial Conversion Price is subject to adjustment in the circumstances described in Condition 7.2 and the applicable Conversion Price on the relevant Conversion Date shall be determined in accordance with Condition 7.3.
 
A Bondholder may exercise the Conversion Right in respect of an Authorised Denomination by delivering the Certificate representing such Bond, together with a Conversion Notice to the specified office of any Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent in accordance with Condition 7.8 and making any payment required to be made as provided in Condition 7.8, whereupon the Issuer shall, subject to Condition 7.8.3, procure the delivery to or as directed by the relevant Bondholder of Reference Stock credited as paid-up in full as provided in this Condition 7.

Conversion Rights may not be exercised (i) following the giving of notice by the Trustee pursuant to Condition 11 or (ii) in respect of a Bond in respect of which the relevant Bondholder has exercised its right to require the Issuer to redeem that Bond pursuant to Condition 8.7.
 
A Conversion Right may not be exercised by a Bondholder in circumstances where the relevant Conversion Date would fall during the period commencing on the Record Date in respect of any payment of interest on the Bonds and ending on the relevant Interest Payment Date (both days inclusive).

84
 
 

 
 
 
 
(a)
if on the five preceding Scheduled Trading Days the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Reference Stock (translated into US dollars at the Prevailing Rate on each Scheduled Trading Day) is equal or less than the Initial Conversion Price (as it may have been adjusted pursuant to Condition 7.2), the applicable Conversion Price shall be the Initial Conversion Price (as it may have been adjusted pursuant to Condition 7.2);
 
 
 
(b)
if on the five preceding Scheduled Trading Days the arithmetic average VWAP of the Reference Stock is greater than the Initial Conversion Price (translated into US dollars at the Prevailing Rate on each Scheduled Trading Day) (as it may have been adjusted pursuant to Condition 7.2), the Conversion Price shall be calculated as follows:
 
Conversion Price = Graphic
 
 
where:
 
iVWAP  = the arithmetic average of the 5 preceding Scheduled Trading Days VWAP of the Reference Stock translated into US dollars at the Prevailing Rate on each day;
 
ICP = Initial Conversion Price (as it may have been adjusted pursuant to Condition 7.2); and
 
ISF (Incremental Share Factor) = US$200,000 divided by the Initial Conversion Price (as it may have been adjusted pursuant to Condition 7.2);
 
provided that if the Conversion Price is lower than the Conversion Price Floor the Conversion Price shall equal the Conversion Price Floor.
 
7.4  
Retroactive Adjustments
 
If the Conversion Date in relation to the conversion of any Bond shall be after the record date in respect of any reclassification or subdivision as is mentioned in paragraph 7.2.1 above, or after the record date or other due date for the establishment of entitlement for any such issue, distribution, grant or offer (as the case may be) as is mentioned in paragraph 7.2.2, 7.2.3, 7.2.4 or 7.2.8 above, or after the date of the first public announcement of the terms of any such issue or grant as is mentioned in paragraph 7.2.5 and 7.2.6 above or of the terms of any such modification as is mentioned in paragraph 7.2.7 above, but before the relevant adjustment to the Initial Conversion Price becomes effective under Condition 7.2 above (each such adjustment, a “Retroactive Adjustment”) in circumstances where such Bond is to be converted into Reference Stock, then the Issuer shall (conditional upon the relevant adjustment becoming effective) procure that there shall be issued to the converting Bondholder, in accordance with the instructions contained in the relevant Conversion Notice, such additional number of shares of Reference Stock (if any) (the “Additional Reference Stock”) as, together with the Reference Stock issued on conversion of the relevant Bonds (together with any fraction of a Reference Stock not so issued), is equal to the number of shares of Reference Stock which would have been required to be issued on such conversion if the relevant adjustment to the Initial Conversion Price had been made and become effective immediately prior to the relevant Conversion Date.

7.5  
Decision of an Independent Financial Adviser
 
If any doubt shall arise as to whether an adjustment falls to be made to the Conversion Price or as to the appropriate adjustment to the Conversion Price, following consultation between the Issuer and an Independent Financial Adviser, a written determination of such Independent Financial Adviser in respect thereof shall be conclusive and binding on all parties.
 
7.6  
Share or Option Plans and Dividend Reinvestment Plans
 
No adjustment will be made to the Initial Conversion Price where Reference Stock or other Securities (including rights, warrants and options) are issued, offered, exercised, allotted, purchased, appropriated, modified or granted to, or for the benefit of, employees, officers, directors, consultants, Shareholders and/or any other eligible persons, in each case, of the Issuer or any member of the Group or any associated company or to a trustee or trustees to be held for the benefit of any such person, in any such case pursuant to any stock option plan, stock purchase plan or stock bonus plan (including without limitation the Restricted Share Grant Plan, the Share Option Plan, the Deferred Compensation Plan and the Performance Bonus Plan, each such term as defined in the Credit Agreement) approved by the Shareholders or any dividend reinvestment plan of the Issuer in effect, or any other securities based compensation arrangement (as contemplated by the rules of the TSX), or similar plan or scheme to the foregoing.
 
7.7  
Rounding Down and Notice of Adjustment to the Conversion Price
 
On any adjustment, the resultant Conversion Price, if not an integral multiple of US$0.01, shall be rounded down to the nearest whole multiple of US$0.01. No adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price where such adjustment (rounded down if applicable) would be less than one per cent. of the Conversion Price then in effect. Any adjustment not required to be made and/or any amount by which the Conversion Price has been rounded down, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and such subsequent adjustment shall be made on the basis that the adjustment not required to be made had been made at the relevant time and/or, as the case may be, that the relevant rounding down had not been made.
 
Notice of any adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be given by the Issuer to Bondholders in accordance with Condition 17 and to the Trustee promptly after the determination thereof.
 
7.8  
Procedure for Exercise of Conversion Rights and Settlement Method
 
7.8.1  
Conversion Rights may be exercised by a Bondholder during the Conversion Period by delivering the Certificate in respect of such Bond to the specified office of any Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent, at its own expense, during its usual business hours, accompanied by a duly completed and signed notice of conversion (a “Conversion Notice”) in the form (for the time being current) obtainable from the Registrar or any Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent. Conversion Rights shall be exercised subject in each case to any applicable fiscal or other laws or regulations applicable in the jurisdiction in which the specified office of the Registrar or the Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent to whom the relevant Conversion Notice is delivered is located.
 
A Conversion Right may only be exercised in respect of an Authorised Denomination.
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
86
 
 

 
 
 
A Conversion Notice, once delivered, shall be irrevocable.
 
If the delivery of the relevant Certificate and Conversion Notice as described in the foregoing paragraph is made after the end of normal business hours or on a day which is not a business day, such delivery shall be deemed for all purposes of these Conditions to have been made on the next following business day.
 
Any determination as to whether any Conversion Notice has been duly completed and properly delivered shall be made by the relevant Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent and shall, save in the case of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents and the relevant Bondholder.
 
The conversion date in respect of a Bond (the “Conversion Date”) shall be the business day immediately following the date of the delivery of the relevant Certificate and the Conversion Notice as provided in this Condition 7.8.1.
 
7.8.2  
A Bondholder exercising Conversion Rights must pay directly to the relevant authorities any taxes and capital, stamp, issue, registration and transfer taxes and duties arising on conversion, other than any capital, stamp, issue, registration and transfer taxes and duties payable in the USA or Canada for Reference Stock listed on the NYSE or the TSX solely in respect of the allotment or issue of any Reference Stock in respect of such exercise which shall be paid by the Issuer. If the Issuer shall fail to pay any capital, stamp, issue, registration and transfer taxes and duties payable for which it is responsible as provided above, the relevant holder shall be entitled to tender and pay the same and the Issuer, as a separate and independent stipulation, covenants to reimburse and indemnify each Bondholder in respect of any payment thereof and any penalties payable in respect thereof.
 
The Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether any such taxes or capital, stamp, issue and registration and transfer taxes and duties are payable or the amount thereof and it shall not be responsible or liable for any failure by the Issuer to pay such taxes or capital, stamp, issue and registration and transfer taxes and duties.
 
Such Bondholder must also pay all, if any, taxes imposed on it and arising by reference to any disposal or deemed disposal of a Bond or any interest therein in connection with the exercise of Conversion Rights by it.
 
7.8.3  
Upon exercise of a Conversion Right by a Bondholder, the Issuer may make an election (a “Cash Settlement Election”) to satisfy the Conversion Rights exercised in respect of any Bonds by making or procuring payment on its behalf to the relevant Bondholder of a sum in cash (a “Cash Settlement”) determined in accordance with 7.8.7.  The Issuer shall, on the 3rd business day following the day of receipt of a Conversion Notice (the “Election Date”), deliver a notice (the “Settlement Election Notice”), through the Trustee and Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent, to the converting holder specifying the Settlement Method elected by the Issuer with respect to the conversion of the Bond.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
87
 
 

 
 
 
If the Issuer does not deliver a Settlement Election Notice by the Election Date the Issuer shall no longer have the right to make a Cash Settlement Election and the Issuer shall be deemed to have elected to settle by providing new and/or existing Common Shares of the Issuer (“Stock Settlement”) in respect of the relevant Conversion Right.
 
A Cash Settlement Election shall be irrevocable.
 
7.8.4  
The Issuer shall use the same Settlement Method for all conversions occurring on a given Conversion Date. The Issuer shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions that occur on different Conversion Dates. If more than one Bond shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the Conversion Right with respect to such Bonds shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds so surrendered.
 
7.8.5  
The Stock Settlement Amount shall be determined by Issuer promptly following the Election Date. Promptly after such determination of the relevant Stock Settlement Amount, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the relevant Stock Settlement Amount.
 
7.8.6  
The Issuer shall deliver (in respect of a Stock Settlement Election) the relevant number of shares of Reference Stock due in respect of the Conversion Right on the third business day immediately following the relevant Election Date.
 
7.8.7  
If the Issuer has made a Cash Settlement Election, the amount payable by the Issuer shall be the Cash Settlement Amount, together with any other amount payable by the Issuer to such Bondholder pursuant to these Conditions in respect of or relating to the relevant exercise of Conversion Rights, including any interest payable pursuant to Condition 7.10, as calculated by the Issuer.
 
Cash Settlement Amount” means an amount in US dollars per US$200,000 in principal amount of Bonds calculated in accordance with the following formula:
 
Graphic
 
where:
 
CSA  = the Cash Settlement Amount;
 
Pn   = the Volume Weighted Average Price of one share of Reference Stock on the nth dealing day of the Cash Settlement Calculation Period; and
 
Prevailing Raten   = the Prevailing Rate on the nth dealing day of the Cash Settlement Calculation Period;
 
provided that if any Dividend or other entitlement in respect of the Reference Stock is announced, whether on or prior to or after the relevant Conversion Date in circumstances where the record date or other due date for the establishment of entitlement in respect of such Dividend or other entitlement shall be on or after the relevant Conversion Date and if on any dealing day in the Cash Settlement Calculation Period the price determined as provided above is based on a price ex-Dividend or ex-any other entitlement, then such price shall be increased by an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of any such Dividend or other entitlement per share of Reference Stock as at the Effective Date relating to such Dividend or entitlement (or, if that is not a dealing day, the immediately preceding dealing day), determined on a gross basis and disregarding any withholding or deduction required to be made on account of tax, and disregarding any associated tax credit.
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
88
 
 

 
 
 
 
If there is a Retroactive Adjustment to the Conversion Price following the exercise of Conversion Rights by a Bondholder, in circumstances where a Cash Settlement Election is or was made in respect of such exercise, the Issuer shall pay to the relevant Bondholder an additional amount (the “Additional Cash Settlement Amount”) equal to the Current Market Price of such number of shares of Reference Stock as is equal to the number of shares of Additional Reference Stock that would have been required to be issued or transferred and delivered to the relevant Bondholder pursuant to Condition 7.4 had a Cash Settlement Election not been made in respect of the relevant exercise of Conversion Rights.
 
7.8.8  
The Issuer shall pay (in respect of a Cash Settlement) the relevant cash consideration due in respect of the Conversion Right on the day immediately following the last day of the Cash Settlement Calculation Period.
 
7.8.9  
Reference Stock to be issued on exercise of Conversion Rights will be issued, in "book-entry" form eligible for deposit at CDS and DTC (or any successor licensed clearance and settlement facility applicable to the Reference Stock listed on the TSX or the NYSE, respectively) and the Reference Stock will be issued in the name of the CDS or DTC participant (with reference to the Bondholder’s account with such CDS or DTC participant) as may be advised by the relevant Bondholder.
 
The Reference Stock to be issued on exercise of Conversion Rights will not be available for issue (i) to, or to a nominee for, Euroclear Bank SA/NV or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme or any other person providing a clearance service within the meaning of section 96 of the Finance Act 1986 of the United Kingdom or (ii) to a person, or nominee or agent for a person, whose business is or includes issuing depositary receipts within the meaning of section 93 of the Finance Act 1986 of the United Kingdom, in each case at any time prior to the “abolition day” as defined in section 111 (1) of the Finance Act 1990 of the United Kingdom.
 
Reference Stock to be issued on exercise of Conversion Rights will be issued in uncertificated form or, if the above clearing systems are not operational, in either certificated form or in the form of a Direct Registration System (“DRS”) Advice.  Where Reference Stock is to be issued in certificated form or in the form of a DRS Advice, a certificate or DRS Advice in respect thereof will be dispatched by mail free of charge (but uninsured and at the risk of the recipient) to the relevant Bondholder or as it may direct in the relevant Conversion Notice within 28 days following the relevant Conversion Date.

7.9.2  
Save as provided in Condition 7.10, no payment or adjustment shall be made on exercise of Conversion Rights for any interest which otherwise would have accrued on the relevant Bonds since the last Interest Payment Date preceding the Conversion Date relating to such Bonds (or, if such Conversion Date falls before the first Interest Payment Date, since the Closing Date).
 
7.10  
Interest on Conversion
 
If any notice requiring the redemption of the Bonds is given pursuant to Condition 8.2 on or after the 15th business day prior to a record date which has occurred since the last Interest Payment Date (or in the case of the first Interest Period, since the Closing Date) in respect of any Dividend or distribution payable in respect of the Reference Stock where such notice specifies a date for redemption falling on or prior to the date which is 14 days after the Interest Payment Date next following such record date, interest shall accrue at the rate provided in Condition 6.1 on Bonds in respect of which Conversion Rights shall have been exercised and in respect of which the Conversion Date falls after such record date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date next following such record date in respect of such Dividend or distribution, in each case from and including the preceding Interest Payment Date (or, if such Conversion Date falls before the first Interest Payment Date, from the Closing Date) to but excluding such Conversion Date.

TAXATION
 
All payments of principal and interest by or on behalf of the Issuer in respect of the Bonds shall be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within Canada or the United Kingdom or any authority therein or thereof having power to tax, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law.
 
If any such withholding or deduction is required to be made, the Issuer will pay such additional amounts as will result in the receipt by the Bondholders of the amounts which would otherwise have been receivable had no such withholding or deduction been required, except that no such additional amount shall be payable in respect of any Bond:
 
 
(a)  
to a holder (or to a third party on behalf of a holder) who is subject to such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges in respect of such Bond by reason of the holder having some connection with Canada or the United Kingdom, as the case may be, otherwise than merely by holding the Bond; or
 
 
(b)  
(in the case of a payment on redemption) if the Bond is surrendered more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that the holder would have been entitled to such additional amount on surrendering the relevant Bond for payment on the last day of the period of 30 days following the Relevant Date; or

 
 
(c)  
where such withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other Directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income or any law (whether or not of a Member State of the European Union) implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; or
 
 
(d)  
presented for payment by or on behalf of a holder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Bond to another Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent.
 
References in these Conditions and the Trust Deed to principal and/or interest shall be deemed also to refer to any additional amounts which may be payable under this Condition or any undertaking or covenant given in addition thereto or in substitution therefor pursuant to the Trust Deed.
 
This Condition 10 shall not apply in respect of payments of interest on any Bonds which are the subject of an election by the relevant Bondholder pursuant to Condition 8.3.

The Issuer may from time to time without the consent of the Bondholders create and issue further securities, either having the same terms and conditions as the Bonds in all respects (or in all respects except for the first payment of interest on them and the first date on which Conversion Rights may be exercised) and so that such further issue shall be consolidated and form a single series with the outstanding securities of any series (including the Bonds) or upon such terms as the Issuer may determine at the time of their issue. References in these Conditions to the Bonds include (unless the context requires otherwise) any other securities issued pursuant to this Condition and forming a single series with the Bonds. Any further securities forming a single series with the outstanding securities of any series (including the Bonds) constituted by the Trust Deed or any deed supplemental to it shall, and any other securities may (with the consent of the Trustee), be constituted by a deed supplemental to the Trust Deed. The Trust Deed contains provisions for convening a single meeting of the Bondholders and the holders of securities of other series where the Trustee so decides.
 
19.  
INTEREST ACT CANADA
 
For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure under such act, whenever interest to be paid under the Bonds is to be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days or 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by either 365, 360 or such other period of time, as the case may be.

US$150,000,000 6.5 per cent. Convertible Bonds due 2019
 

 
GLOBAL BOND
 
The Bonds in respect of which this Global Bond is issued are in registered form and form the series designated as specified in the title of the Issuer.

Enforcement
 
For the purposes of enforcement of the provisions of the Trust Deed against the Trustee or the Share Trustee-Custodian, the persons named in a certificate or definitive Bond (if any) of the holder of the Bonds in respect of which this Global Bond is issued shall be recognised as the beneficiaries of the trusts set out in the Trust Deed to the extent of the principal amount of their interest in the Bonds set out in any certificate or definitive Bond (if any) of the holder as if they were themselves the holders of Bonds in such principal amounts.

PROVISIONS FOR MEETINGS OF BONDHOLDERS
 
1.  
 
 
(a)  
A holder of a Bond may by an instrument in writing (a “form of proxy”) in the form available from the Specified Office of any Agent in English signed by the holder or, in the case of a corporation, executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an attorney or a duly authorised officer of the corporation and delivered to any Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for any meeting, appoint any person (a “proxy”) to act on the holder’s behalf in connection with any meeting or proposed meeting of Bondholders.
 
(b)  
A holder of a Bond which is a corporation may by delivering to any Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for any meeting a resolution of its Directors or other governing body in English authorise any person to act as its representative (a “representative”) in connection with any meeting or proposed meeting of Bondholders.
 
(c)  
Any proxy appointed pursuant to sub-paragraph 1(a) above or representative appointed pursuant to sub-paragraph 1(b) above shall so long as such appointment remains in force be deemed, for all purposes in connection with any meeting or proposed meeting of Bondholders specified in such appointment, to be the holder of the Bonds to which such appointment relates and the holder of the Bond shall be deemed for such purposes not to be the holder.
 
(d)  
block voting instruction” shall mean a document in the English language issued by the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent and dated, in which:
 
(i)  
it is certified that Bonds are registered in the books and records maintained by the Registrar in the names of specified registered holders;
 
(ii)  
it is certified that each holder of such Bonds or a duly authorised agent on the holder’s behalf has instructed the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent that the vote(s) attributable to the holder’s Bonds so deposited or registered should be cast in a particular way in relation to the resolution or resolutions to be put to such meeting or any adjournment thereof and that all such instructions are, during the period of 48 hours prior to the time for which such meeting or adjourned meeting is convened, neither revocable nor subject to amendment but without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph 1(b);
 
(iii)  
the total number and the identifying numbers of the Bonds so registered are listed, distinguishing with regard to each such resolution between those in respect of which instructions have been given as aforesaid that the votes attributable thereto should be cast in favour of the resolution and those in respect of which instructions have been so given that the votes attributable thereto should be case against the resolution; and
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
115
 
 

 
 
 
(iv)  
any person named in such document (hereinafter called a “proxy”) is authorised and instructed by the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent to cast the votes attributable to the Bonds so listed in accordance with the instructions referred to in (ii) and (iii) above as set out in such document.
 
(e)  
Block voting instructions and forms of proxy shall be valid for so long as the relevant Bonds shall be duly registered in the name(s) of the registered holder(s) certified in the block voting instruction or, in the case of a form of proxy, in the name of the appointor but not otherwise and notwithstanding any other provision of this Schedule and during the validity thereof the proxy shall, for all purposes in connection with any meeting of holders of Bonds, be deemed to be the holder of the Bonds to which such block voting instructions or form of proxy relates.
 
2.  
The Issuer or the Trustee may at any time convene a meeting of Bondholders. If it receives a written request by Bondholders holding at least 10 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding and is indemnified, prefunded and/or secured to its satisfaction against all invoiced costs and expenses, the Trustee shall convene a meeting of Bondholders. Every meeting shall be held at a time and place approved by the Trustee.
 
3.  
At least 21 days’ notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and of the day of the meeting) shall be given to the Bondholders. A copy of the notice shall be given by the party convening the meeting to the other parties. The notice shall specify the date, time and place of meeting, be given in the manner provided in the Conditions and shall specify, unless the Trustee otherwise agrees, the nature of the resolutions to be proposed and shall include a statement to the effect that the holders of Bonds may appoint proxies by executing and delivering a form of proxy in English to the Specified Office of an Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting or, in the case of corporations, may appoint representatives by resolution in English of their directors or other governing body and by delivering an executed copy of such resolution to the Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting.
 
4.  
A person (who may, but need not, be a Bondholder) nominated in writing by the Trustee may act as chairman of a meeting but if no such nomination is made or if the person nominated is not present within 15 minutes after the time fixed for the meeting the Bondholders present shall choose one of their number to be chairman, failing which the Issuer may appoint a chairman. The chairman of an adjourned meeting need not be the same person as was chairman of the original meeting.
 
5.  
At a meeting two or more persons present in person holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 10 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding shall (except for the purpose of passing an Extraordinary Resolution) form a quorum for the transaction of business and no business (other than the choosing of a chairman) shall be transacted unless the requisite quorum is present at the commencement of business. The quorum at a meeting for passing an Extraordinary Resolution shall (subject as provided below) be two or more persons present in person holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate over 50 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding, provided that the quorum at any meeting the business of which includes any of the matters specified in the proviso to paragraph 16 shall be two or more persons so present holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate over two-thirds in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
116
 
 

 
 
 
6.  
If within 15 minutes from the time fixed for a meeting a quorum is not present the meeting shall, if convened upon the requisition of Bondholders or if the Issuer and the Trustee agree, be dissolved. In any other case it shall stand adjourned to such date, not less than 14 nor more than 42 days later, and to such place as the chairman may decide. At such adjourned meeting two or more persons present in person holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives (whatever the principal amount of the Bonds so held or represented) shall form a quorum and may pass any resolution and decide upon all matters which could properly have been dealt with at the meeting from which the adjournment took place had a quorum been present at such meeting, provided that at any adjourned meeting at which is to be proposed an Extraordinary Resolution for the purpose of effecting any of the modifications specified in the proviso to paragraph 16 the quorum shall be two or more persons so present holding Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate over one-third in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding. If within 15 minutes from the time fixed for a meeting to be adjourned a quorum is not present then the meeting shall be adjourned.
 
7.  
The chairman may with the consent of (and shall if directed by) a meeting adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place but no business shall be transacted at an adjourned meeting which might not lawfully have been transacted at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.
 
8.  
At least 10 days’ notice of any meeting adjourned through want of a quorum shall be given in the same manner as for an original meeting and such notice shall state the quorum required at the adjourned meeting. No notice need, however, otherwise be given of an adjourned meeting.
 
9.  
Each question submitted to a meeting shall be decided in the first instance by a show of hands and in case of equality of votes the chairman shall both on a show of hands and on a poll have a casting vote in addition to the vote or votes (if any) which he may have as a Bondholder or as a holder of a voting certificate or as a proxy or representative.
 
10.  
Unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) demanded at a meeting by the chairman, the Issuer, the Trustee or by one or more persons holding one or more Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 2 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
117
 
 

 
 
 
11.  
If a poll is demanded, it shall be taken in such manner and (subject as provided below) either at once or after such an adjournment as the chairman directs and the result of such poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded as at the date of the taking of the poll. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuation of the meeting for the transaction of any business other than the question on which the poll has been demanded.
 
12.  
A poll demanded on the election of a chairman or on any question of adjournment shall be taken at the meeting without adjournment.
 
13.  
The Issuer and the Trustee (through their respective representatives) and their respective financial and legal advisers may attend and speak at any meeting of Bondholders. No one else may attend or speak at a meeting of Bondholders unless he is the holder of a Bond or is a proxy or a representative.
 
14.  
On a show of hands every holder who is present in person or any person who is present and is a proxy or a representative shall have one vote and on a poll every person who is so present shall have one vote in respect of each US$200,000 principal amount of Bonds held or in respect of which such person is a proxy or a representative. Without prejudice to the obligations of proxies, a person entitled to more than one vote need not use them all or cast them all in the same way.
 
15.  
A proxy need not be a Bondholder.
 
16.  
A meeting of Bondholders shall, subject to the Conditions, in addition to the powers given above, but without prejudice to any powers conferred on other persons by this Trust Deed, have power exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution:
 
(a)  
to sanction any proposal by the Issuer for any modification, abrogation, variation or compromise of, or arrangement in respect of, the rights of the Bondholders against the Issuer whether or not such rights arise under this Trust Deed;
 
(b)  
to sanction the exchange or substitution for the Bonds of, or the conversion of the Bonds into, shares, bonds, or other obligations or securities of the Issuer or any other entity;
 
(c)  
to assent to any modification of this Trust Deed or the Bonds which shall be proposed by the Issuer or the Trustee;
 
(d)  
to authorise anyone to concur in and do anything necessary to carry out and give effect to an Extraordinary Resolution;
 
(e)  
to give any authority, direction or sanction required to be given by Extraordinary Resolution;
 
(f)  
to appoint any persons (whether Bondholders or not) as a committee or committees to represent the interests of the Bondholders and to confer on them any powers or discretions which the Bondholders could themselves exercise by Extraordinary Resolution;
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
118
 
 

 
 
 
(g)  
to approve the substitution of any entity for the Issuer (or any previous substitute) as principal debtor under this Trust Deed;
 
(h)  
to approve a proposed new Trustee and to remove a Trustee; and
 
(i)  
to discharge or exonerate the Trustee from any liability in respect of any act or omission for which it may become responsible under this Trust Deed or the Bonds,
 
provided that the special quorum provisions contained in the proviso to paragraph 5 and, in the case of an adjourned meeting, in the proviso to paragraph 6 shall apply in relation to any Extraordinary Resolution for the purpose of making any modification to the provisions contained in this Trust Deed or the Bonds which would have the effect of:
 
(i)  
changing the maturity date of the Bonds; or
 
(ii)  
reducing or cancelling the principal amount of, or interest on, the Bonds or changing the method of calculation thereof; or
 
(iii)  
changing the currency of any payment in respect of the Bonds; or
 
(iv)  
cancelling or modifying the right to convert the Bonds into Common Shares (except in accordance with the Conditions) or cancelling or modifying the Change of Control provisions or modifying the circumstances in which the Bonds may be converted at the option of the Issuer or shortening the Conversion Period; or
 
(v)  
modifying the provisions contained in this Schedule concerning the quorum required at a meeting of Bondholders or the majority required to pass an Extraordinary Resolution or sign a resolution in writing; or
 
(vi)  
changing the governing law of the Bonds; or
 
(vii)  
amending this proviso.
 
17.  
An Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders duly convened and held in accordance with this Trust Deed shall be binding on all the Bondholders, whether or not present at the meeting, and each of them shall be bound to give effect to it accordingly. The passing of such a resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances of such resolution justify the passing of it.
 
18.  
The expression “Extraordinary Resolution” means a resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders duly convened and held in accordance with these provisions by a majority consisting of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast.
 
19.  
A resolution in writing signed by or on behalf of the holders of not less than 90 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds who for the time being are entitled to receive notice of a meeting in accordance with these provisions shall for all purposes be as valid as an Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders convened and held in accordance with these provisions. Such resolution in writing may be in one document or several documents in like form each signed by or on behalf of one or more of the Bondholders.
 
 
EU1/ 52179183.13
119
 
 

 
 
 
20.  
Minutes shall be made of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting and, if purporting to be signed by the chairman of that meeting or of the next succeeding meeting of Bondholders, shall be conclusive evidence of the matters in them. Until the contrary is proved, every meeting for which minutes have been so made and signed shall be deemed to have been duly convened and held and all resolutions passed or proceedings transacted at it to have been duly passed and transacted.
 
21.  
Subject to all other provisions contained in this Trust Deed the Trustee may without the consent of the Bondholders prescribe such further regulations regarding the holding of meetings and attendance and voting at them or regarding the making of resolutions in writing as the Trustee may in its sole discretion determine including (without limitation) such regulations and requirements as the Trustee thinks reasonable to satisfy itself that persons who purport to make any requisition in accordance with this Trust Deed are entitled to do so and that those who purport to attend or vote at a meeting or to sign a written resolution are entitled to do so.
