(e) Neither the Board nor any committee thereof shall directly or indirectly (i) modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Purchaser or withdraw, or publicly propose to modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Purchaser or withdraw, the Recommendation, (ii) approve or make any recommendation to the Company Shareholders in connection with any tender offer, take-over bid or other Acquisition Proposal (other than a recommendation against such offer), (iii) fail to include the Recommendation in the Company Proxy Statement or otherwise take any other action in connection with the Company Meeting or make any other public statement inconsistent with such Recommendation, (iv) fail to publicly reaffirm its recommendation of this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days after Purchaser so reasonably requests in writing after a material event or development (other than a take-over bid, tender offer or exchange offer) (or within such fewer number of days as remains prior to the day that is two (2) Business Days before the Company Meeting), provided that, Purchaser may not make such request prior to the Go-Shop Period End Time, (v) in the case of a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Regulation 14D under the Exchange Act, fail to recommend, in a solicitation/recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9, rejection of such tender offer or exchange offer within ten (10) Business Days of the commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer, or (vi) in the case of a take-over bid or insider bid subject to National Instrument 62-104 - Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids of the Canadian Securities Administrators, fail to recommend, in a directors’ circular, rejection of such take-over bid or insider bid within fifteen (15) days of the date of such take-over bid or insider bid (any of the actions referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) taken by the Board or a committee thereof, a “Recommendation Withdrawal”); provided, that at any time prior to obtaining the Requisite

Vote, if (A) either (1) the Company receives an Acquisition Proposal which the Board concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors) constitutes a Superior Proposal or (2) the Board concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors) there has been an Intervening Event and (B) the Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, then the Board may (x) make a Recommendation Withdrawal or (y) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) and any purported termination pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) shall be void and of no force or effect, unless the Company has complied with this Section 6.4 (other than with respect to any breach that is de minimis) and concurrently with such termination the Company pays to Purchaser the Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and substantially concurrently enters into a definitive agreement providing for such Superior Proposal; and provided, further, that the Board of Directors may not effect a Recommendation Withdrawal pursuant to this Section 6.4(e) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) unless:

(i) the Company shall have provided prior written notice to Purchaser, at least four (4) Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”), of its intention to effect a Recommendation Withdrawal or terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, which notice shall specify, as applicable: (A) the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal (notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including the identity of the Person or group of Persons making such Superior Proposal) and include all relevant transaction documents or (B) the facts and circumstances in reasonable detail of the Intervening Event;

(ii) during the Notice Period (or such shorter period as is specified in Section 6.4(f) below), the Board and its Representatives have negotiated in good faith with Purchaser (to the extent Purchaser desires to negotiate) regarding any revisions to the terms of this Agreement that may, at Purchaser’s sole discretion, be proposed by Purchaser in response to such Superior Proposal or Intervening Event, as applicable; and

(iii) at the end of the Notice Period (or such shorter period as is specified in Section 6.4(f) below), the Board (A) concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors) taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed by Purchaser that is capable of acceptance, that, as applicable, (1) the Acquisition Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal or (2) the Intervening Event continues to warrant a Recommendation Withdrawal; and (B) concludes in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(f) In the event of any material revisions to the Superior Proposal, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Purchaser and to comply with the requirements of Section 6.4(e) with respect to such new written notice, except that the Notice Period shall be reduced to two (2) Business Days.

(g) The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, enter into any confidentiality or other agreement subsequent to the date hereof which prohibits the Company from complying with this Section 6.4.

(h) Nothing contained in this Section 6.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i) taking and disclosing a position as required by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or similar Laws under Canadian Securities Laws or (ii) making any disclosure to the Company Shareholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Board (after consultation with outside counsel), the failure to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.4(h) shall be deemed to permit a Recommendation Withdrawal to be made without complying with Section 6.4(e).

(i) Any breach by any Subsidiaries of the Company, or any directors, officers, employees or Affiliates of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, of this Section 6.4 shall be deemed a breach by the Company of this Section 6.4. Any material breach by any Representatives of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any directors, officers, employees or Affiliates of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) of this Section 6.4 shall be deemed a breach by the Company of this Section 6.4.

Section 6.5 Director and Officer Liability.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall and shall cause the Company to, to the greatest extent permitted by Law, indemnify and hold harmless (and comply with all of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ obligations existing as of the date hereof to indemnify and hold harmless, including obligations to advance funds for expenses) each Person who served or serves as a former or present director, manager or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and each Person who served or serves as a director, officer, manager, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise if such service was at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each such Person, together with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators, an “Indemnified Person”), against any and all costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (“Damages”), incurred in connection with any Proceeding or investigation with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Person is or was a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer, member, trustee or fiduciary of another Person, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time. Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company to, use reasonable best efforts to assist in the defense of such matter with the Indemnified Person in the defense of any such Proceeding.

(b) As of the Effective Time, the Company shall have purchased, and, following the Effective Time, Purchaser shall cause the Company to maintain, a tail policy to the

current policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained on the date hereof by the Company (the “Current Policy”), which tail policy shall be effective for a period from the Effective Time through and including the date six (6) years after the Effective Date with respect to claims arising from facts or events that existed or occurred prior to or at the Effective Time, and which tail policy shall contain substantially the same coverage and amount as, and contain terms and conditions no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the coverage currently provided by the Current Policy; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any amounts in respect of such coverage prior to the Effective Time and provided, further that the cost of such tail policy shall not exceed 300% of the Company’s current annual premium for its Current Policy (the “Current Premium”), it being understood that if the cost of such tail policy would exceed 300% of the Current Premium then the Company shall purchase a tail policy that contains the highest level of coverage that can be obtained for such amount.

(c) This Section 6.5 shall survive the consummation of the Arrangement and is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by each Indemnified Person (each of whom shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be deemed third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement for purposes of this Section 6.5) and shall be binding on Purchaser, the Company and their successors and assigns. In the event that Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, or any of their successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person (including by dissolution), then, and in each such case, Purchaser shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, assume and honor the obligations set forth in this Section 6.5.

(d) The agreements and covenants contained herein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which any Indemnified Person is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any insurance policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.5 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under any such policies.

Section 6.6 Public Announcements. The initial press release issued by Purchaser and the Company concerning this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be a joint press release, the contents of which have received prior approval from both such parties, and thereafter, except with respect to any press release or other public statement in connection with a Recommendation Withdrawal or any action taken pursuant to and, in each case, only to the extent permitted by Section 6.4(e), Section 6.4(h) or Article VIII), so long as this Agreement is in effect, the parties will consult with each other in good faith before issuing any press release or making any other public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and, except for any press release or public statement as may be required by applicable Law, will not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the consent of the other parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.6 shall not apply to any press release or other public statement issued or made, or

proposed to be issued or made, that is consistent in all material respects with previous press releases or public statements made by a party hereto in accordance with this Section 6.6.

Section 6.7 Employee Matters.

(a) Without limiting any additional rights that any Company Employee employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at the Effective Time (“Current Employee”) may have under any Company Benefit Plan, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company and each of its Subsidiaries, for so long as a Current Employee remains employed by Purchaser and its Subsidiaries during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the first anniversary thereof, to maintain for such Current Employee (i) his or her salary or hourly wage rate, commission structure and opportunities, and/or target cash bonus opportunities that are each no less favorable, and (ii) all other compensation and benefits, including severance, that are substantially comparable in the aggregate, to those maintained for and provided to such Current Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent the amendment or termination of any Company Benefit Plans or interfere with Purchaser’s or Company’s right or obligation to make such changes as are necessary to conform with applicable Law. Nothing in this Section 6.7 shall limit the right of Purchaser, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate the employment of any Current Employee at any time in a manner consistent with any applicable Law and any applicable Company Benefit Plan.

(b) As of and after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company to, give each Current Employee full credit for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting (but not for purposes of benefit accruals, except for purposes of vacation and severance) under any Employee Benefit Plans and any other pension, supplemental pension, retirement, employee compensation and incentive plans, benefit (including vacation) plans, programs, policies and arrangements, in each case maintained for the benefit of Current Employees as of and after the Effective Time by Purchaser, the Company or its Subsidiaries (each, a “Purchaser Plan”) for such Current Employee’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their predecessor entities prior to the Effective Time, to the same extent such service is recognized as of immediately prior to the Effective Time by Purchaser, the Company or its Subsidiaries under comparable Company Benefit Plans. With respect to each Purchaser Plan that is a “welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) and any other similar plan maintained in a jurisdiction other than the United States, with respect to which a Current Employee becomes eligible to participate for the first time after the Effective Time and during the year in which the Effective Time occurs, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, where applicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause there to be waived any pre-existing condition or eligibility limitations or exclusions and actively-at-work requirements with respect to the Current Employees and their eligible dependents and (ii) give effect, for the year in which the Effective Time occurs, for purposes of satisfying any deductible and maximum out-of-pocket limitations, to claims incurred and amounts paid by, and amounts reimbursed to, Current Employees and their eligible dependents under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan in which such Current Employees and their eligible dependents participated immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, assume and honor, in accordance with their respective terms,

(i) each existing employment, change in control, severance and termination plan, policy or agreement of or between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any officer, director or employee of that company, on the other hand, (ii) each bonus plan, program or agreement and (iii) all obligations pursuant to existing compensation and benefit arrangements of the Company or its Subsidiaries in effect as of the Effective Time, in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), to the extent legally binding on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not prohibit Purchaser, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries from amending or terminating any plan, policy, program, agreement, or arrangement referenced in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) to the extent permitted by the terms thereof.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.7 are for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to (i) confer upon or give to any person (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Company Employees), other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable or other rights or remedies (with respect to the matters provided for in this Section 6.7) under or by reason of any provision of this Agreement, (ii) establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, including any Company Benefit Plan or any Purchaser Plan, (iii) alter or limit the ability of any of Purchaser, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them or (iv) is intended to confer upon any Company Employee any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment.

Section 6.8 Financing.

(a) From and after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII, the Company shall provide, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives, including legal and accounting, to provide all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing (provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), including (i) participation, including participation by management of the Company with appropriate seniority and expertise, on a timely basis in meetings, presentations, road shows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions and sessions with rating agencies; (ii) assisting Parent and the Debt Financing Sources with the preparation of materials for rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda, business projections, marketing materials and similar documents required in connection with the Debt Financing; (iii) executing and delivering any pledge and security documents, guarantees, currency or interest rate hedging arrangements, other definitive financing documents or other certificates, legal opinions or documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent (including a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company or any Subsidiary with respect to solvency matters and consents of auditors for use of their reports in any materials relating to the Debt Financing) and otherwise reasonably facilitating the pledging of collateral (including obtaining third party consents and estoppels); provided, that, in each case, any such document, certificate, opinion or pledge shall be conditioned on Closing and shall only be effective at or

after the Effective Time; (iv) furnishing Parent and the Debt Financing Sources as promptly as practicable with all Required Information and as promptly as practicable, informing Parent if the Company or its Subsidiaries have actual knowledge of any facts that would be reasonably likely to require the restatement of any financial statements comprising a portion of the Required Information; (v) taking all actions reasonably necessary to (A) permit the Debt Financing Sources to evaluate the Company’s current assets, cash management and accounting systems, policies and procedures relating thereto for the purpose of establishing collateral arrangements and (B) effective on or after the Effective Time, establish bank and other accounts and blocked account agreements and lock box arrangements in connection with the foregoing; (vi) taking all corporate actions, and other actions that are reasonably requested by Parent and within the control of the Company or its Subsidiaries, to satisfy any requirements necessary to consummate the Debt Financing and the direct borrowing or incurrence of all of the proceeds of the Debt Financing by Parent or the Company, as applicable; provided that the corporate actions described in clause (vi) shall be conditioned on Closing and shall only be effective on or after the Effective Time; (vii) promptly furnishing to Parent and the Debt Financing Sources at least four (4) Business Days prior the Effective Date with all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable “know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act, relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, in each case reasonably requested by Parent at least seven (7) Business Days prior to the Effective Date; (viii) assisting Parent in connection with the preparation of pro forma financial information and pro forma financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries of the type required by the Debt Financing Commitment or necessary or reasonably required by Debt Financing Sources to be included in any customary marketing materials; provided that none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives shall be required to actually prepare any such pro forma financial information; and (ix) providing customary authorization letters to the Debt Financing Sources authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders or investors and containing customary representations that the public side versions of such documents do not include material non-public information about the Company or its Subsidiaries or their securities and the accuracy of the information contained in the disclosure and the marketing materials. None of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay prior to the Effective Time any commitment or other similar fee in connection with the Debt Financing that is not promptly (within five (5) Business Days of delivery of documentation evidencing such cost or expense) reimbursed by Parent. Parent shall on the earlier of the Effective Date and the termination of this Agreement, upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all liabilities and Damages suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing and any information utilized in connection therewith (other than information provided by or on behalf of the Company or the Subsidiaries), in each case, other than to the extent any of the foregoing arises from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of this Section 6.8 by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives (the reimbursement and indemnification obligations of Parent set forth in this sentence and in Section 6.14 are referred to, collectively, as the “Reimbursement Obligations”). The Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ trademarks and logos in connection with the Debt Financing, provided that such trademarks and logos are

used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and its or their trademarks or logos. All non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding the Company obtained by Parent or its Representatives pursuant to this Section 6.8(a) shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, however, that (x) such information may be shared on a confidential basis with any actual or prospective Debt Financing Sources, their representatives and Affiliates in connection with the Debt Financing and (y) Parent, its Representatives and the Debt Financing Sources shall be permitted to disclose information as necessary and consistent with customary practices in connection with the Debt Financing so long as Parent and its Representatives reasonably cooperate with the Company in order to permit the Company to comply with its obligations under applicable Law relating to the disclosure of such confidential information.

(b) Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions in the Debt Financing Commitments at or prior to the Effective Time, including (i) negotiating definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contained therein or on other terms, taken as a whole, no less favorable to Parent, (ii) satisfying on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent in such definitive agreements that are within its control and (iii) enforcing all of its rights under the Debt Financing Commitments (or any definitive agreements with respect thereto), including by filing one or more Proceedings against the Debt Financing Sources to fully enforce the Debt Financing Sources’ obligations under the Debt Financing Commitments. In the event any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Financing Commitments, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative financing commitments from alternative sources on terms, taken as a whole, no less favorable to Parent (as determined in the reasonable judgment of Parent) as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event. For purposes of this Section 6.8(b), the term “Debt Financing Commitments” shall be deemed to include any such commitment with respect to an alternative financing to the extent such commitment is then in effect and the term “Debt Financing” shall be deemed to include any alternative financing so obtained or arranged by Parent. Parent shall keep the Company reasonably apprised of material developments relating to the Debt Financing.

(c) Parent shall not agree to any amendments or modifications to, or grant any waivers of, any condition or other material provision under the Debt Financing Commitments and Parent shall not agree to any amendments or modifications to, or grant any waivers of, any condition or other material provision under the Equity Commitment Letters, in each case, without the consent of the Company if such amendments, modifications or waivers would impose any new or additional condition or otherwise amend, modify or waive any of the conditions to the receipt of the applicable Financing, in each case in a manner that would be reasonably likely to cause any material delay in the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII (it being understood that Parent may, without the consent of the Company, amend, restate, modify, supplement or replace the Debt Financing Commitments to add and appoint additional arrangers, bookrunners, underwriters, agents, lenders and similar entities and to provide for the assignment and reallocation of a portion of the financing commitments).

(d) In no event shall Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (i) award any investment banker or financial advisor any financial advisory role on an exclusive basis, or

(ii) engage any bank or investment bank or other provider of debt financing on an exclusive basis (or otherwise on terms that would reasonably be expected to prevent such provider from providing or seeking to provide financing to any third party in connection with an Acquisition Proposal), in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not restrict any arrangements with Evercore Group L.L.C., BMO Capital Markets Corp., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC or TD Bank, N.A. (or any of their respective Affiliates) as financial advisors but not, for the avoidance of doubt, exclusive arrangements as debt financing sources. Until the Go-Shop Period End Time, and after such time with respect to an Excluded Party, if any, until the time that it ceases to be an Excluded Party, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall seek or obtain any equity commitments or equity financing in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby, or provide any information in respect thereof to any potential investor in Purchaser, or any of Purchaser’s or any such investor’s financing sources or potential financing sources or other Representatives who have not been provided any such information prior to the date hereof. Purchaser shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the foregoing covenant. In addition, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not cause any of the portfolio companies affiliated with Searchlight Capital Partners, L.P. that would, but for the provisos in the definition of “Affiliate”, be Affiliates of Purchaser, to take any of the actions prohibited by the foregoing covenant.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in the Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser and its respective Affiliates may enter into discussions, negotiations, arrangements or understandings with respect to equity financing or equity financing commitments in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including confidentiality and exclusivity agreements) with any Person that (y) is an Equity Financing Source or a limited partner (or equivalent) of investment funds of Searchlight Capital Partners, L.P. as of the date hereof (or an Affiliate thereof), or (z) is set forth on Section 6.8(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter, in each case of (y) and (z) and any advisor thereof; and provide information in connection therewith, without any such Persons being required to execute a joinder to the Confidentiality Agreement or otherwise enter into a confidentiality agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company’s breach of any of its covenants and agreements required to be performed by it under Section 6.8(a) will not be considered in determining the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 7.2(b) unless such breach results in, or is a cause of, Parent being unable to obtain the proceeds of the Debt Financing prior to or at the Closing.

Section 6.9 Treatment of Company Credit Agreement. The Company shall deliver all notices in accordance with the terms of the Company Credit Agreement and any related loan document, and take all other reasonable actions to facilitate, and shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain and deliver to Purchaser no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Time a customary, executed payoff letter (the “Payoff Letter”) with respect to, (i) the satisfaction and release of all of the Company and its Subsidiaries’ liabilities and obligations (including all Indebtedness for borrowed money, if any, of the Company and its Subsidiaries outstanding as of the Closing, but excluding any contingent indemnification obligations that are not then due and payable and that by their terms are to survive the termination of the Company Credit Agreement and the related loan documents and any letters of credit or similar instruments that are cash collateralized on the Effective Date in accordance with the terms of the Company

Credit Agreement and the related loan documents) under the Company Credit Agreement and the related loan documents, (ii) the termination of the Company Credit Agreement and all related loan documents and (iii) the release of all Liens and guarantees related to the Company Credit Agreement and the related loan documents; provided that (A) in no event shall this Section 6.9 require the Company to cause any such satisfaction, termination or release other than at the Effective Time and (B) Purchaser shall provide, or cause to be provided, all funds required to effect such repayment.

Section 6.10 Confidentiality Agreement. Purchaser acknowledges the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, and the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Agreement does not in any manner modify or limit the Company’s rights under such agreement other than as expressly specified in Section 6.8(e); provided that Sections 7, 9 and 10 of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby terminated and of no force or effect. The Company shall not amend or grant any waiver of any confidentiality or similar agreement, other than any standstill obligation therein.

Section 6.11 Management. In no event shall Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, Representatives or investors in Purchaser enter into any arrangements with any Company Employee that prohibits or restricts such Company Employee from discussing, negotiating or entering into, any arrangements with any third party in connection with an Acquisition Proposal not otherwise in violation of Section 6.4; provided, that this Section 6.11 does not prohibit the entering into of any rollover agreements approved by the Board. Purchaser shall cause its Affiliates, Representatives and each investor in Purchaser to comply with the foregoing covenant.

Section 6.12 Company Plans. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take all actions that are necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement related to the Company Options, Company RSUs and Company PSUs. The Company shall take all steps reasonably necessary to cause the transactions contemplated hereby and any other dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 6.13 Litigation. The Company shall promptly notify Purchaser of any Proceeding brought or threatened against the Company or its directors by or on behalf of any holder of any Company Securities relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall keep Purchaser reasonably and promptly informed with respect to the status thereof. The Company shall give Purchaser the right to review and comment on all material filings or responses to be made by the Company in connection with any such Proceeding (and the Company shall in good faith take such comments into account) and the opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of such Proceeding, and the Company shall not agree to any such settlement without Purchaser’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 6.14 Reorganization.

(a) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in planning, preparing and effectuating any reorganization of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ corporate structure, capital structure, business or operations, or transfer of securities, assets or business, in each case, to be completed prior to the Closing, as Purchaser may reasonably request or as may be necessary or appropriate to complete the transactions contemplated hereby, including amalgamations, liquidations, reorganizations or stock or asset transfers (each a “Reorganization Transaction”), and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to implement any such Reorganization Transaction as Purchaser may reasonably request; provided, however, that (i) such Reorganization Transaction does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) such Reorganization Transaction is not, in the opinion of the Company, acting reasonably, prejudicial to the holders of Company Securities, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and does not result in Taxes being imposed on, or any adverse Tax or other consequences to, any holder of Company Securities, (iii) such Reorganization Transaction shall not materially impede or delay, or prevent, the receipt of any regulatory approvals, the satisfaction of any other conditions set forth in Article VII, the ability of Purchaser to obtain the Financing or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) such Reorganization Transaction does not require the Company to obtain the approval of the Company Shareholders (other than is obtained by virtue of the approval of the Arrangement) and does not require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to obtain any consent of any third party if obtaining such consent would reasonably be expected to materially impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (v) Purchaser shall pay all direct or indirect costs and liabilities, fees, Damages, penalties and Taxes that may be incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries as a consequence of the implementation of or to unwind any such Reorganization Transaction if the Arrangement is not completed, including actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses for filing fees and expenses of external counsel and auditors which may be incurred in connection with such Reorganization Transaction, (vi) no such Reorganization Transaction or any action of the Company or its Subsidiaries requested by the Purchaser in connection therewith shall be considered to constitute a breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Company hereunder or in determining whether any of the conditions in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 have been satisfied, (vii) such Reorganization Transaction shall not be contrary to applicable Laws or the organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding wholly owned Subsidiaries) and would not result in any breach by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any Contract or Permit and (viii) such Reorganization Transaction shall not become effective unless Purchaser has irrevocably waived or confirmed in writing the satisfaction of all conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 and shall have confirmed in writing that it will, upon completion of the Reorganization Transaction, promptly and without condition or delay proceed to effect the Arrangement and (ix) such Reorganization Transaction is effected as close as reasonably practicable to the Effective Time.

(b) Purchaser shall provide written notice to the Company of any proposed Reorganization Transaction at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Time. Upon receipt of such notice, Purchaser and the Company shall, subject in all cases to Section 6.14(a), work co-operatively and use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare prior to the Effective Time all documentation necessary and do all such other acts and things as are

reasonably necessary, including making amendments to this Agreement or the Plan of Arrangement, to give effect to such Reorganization Transaction. No Reorganization Transaction will be made effective unless (i) it is reasonably certain, after consulting with the Company, that the Arrangement will become effective, (ii) such Reorganization Transaction can be reversed or unwound without materially adversely affecting the holders of Company Securities, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in the event the Arrangement does not become effective and this Agreement is terminated (after giving effect to any reimbursement required by to this Section 6.14), or (iii) the Company otherwise consents to such Reorganization Transaction, acting reasonably. The obligation of Purchaser to reimburse the Company for fees and expenses and be responsible for costs as set out in this Section 6.14 will be in addition to any other payment Purchaser may be obligated to make hereunder and will survive termination of this Agreement. If the Arrangement is not completed for any reason, and without prejudice to any other remedy of the Company, Purchaser hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against all liabilities, losses, Damages, Taxes suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with or as a result of any Reorganization Transaction, or to reverse or unwind any Reorganization Transaction.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject in all cases to Section 6.14(a) and Section 6.14(b), the Company acknowledges that Purchaser may enter into one or more transactions (the “Bump Transactions”) designed to step up the adjusted cost base of certain non-depreciable capital property of the Company or its Subsidiaries for purposes of the ITA, and agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser and to provide information reasonably required by Purchaser in this regard on a timely basis and to assist in the obtaining of any such information in order to facilitate a successful completion of the Bump Transactions or any such other reorganizations or transactions as is reasonably requested by Purchaser.

Section 6.15 Parent. Parent will cause Purchaser to comply with all of its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 6.16 Certain French Subsidiaries. Purchaser and the direct and indirect equityholders of Purchaser intend to cause any Subsidiaries that are organized in France to be directly or indirectly transferred to the Subsidiaries of the direct and indirect equityholders of Purchaser that are organized in France, and Purchaser and its direct and indirect equityholders intend to effect this transfer immediately after the Closing, all in accordance with, and for the purpose of applying, the provisions of section 223 B, c, of the French tax code (code général des impôts). Nothing described in this Section 6.16 will impede or delay, or prevent, the receipt of any regulatory approvals, the satisfaction of any other conditions set forth in Article VII, the ability of Purchaser to obtain the Financing or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (except that the applicable parties shall also be obligated with respect to, and the applicable parties may be entitled to remedies with respect to the Confidentiality Agreement, the Guarantee and the Reimbursement Obligations).

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but except as provided in Section 9.10 with respect to equitable remedies and in Section 8.3, Parent’s right to receive or direct payment of the Termination Fee or the Expense Reimbursement in the circumstances in which it is payable (and, in the case of the Expense Reimbursement, in the event that the Termination Fee does not become payable pursuant to Section 8.2(b)) and any Enforcement Expenses from the Company pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Parent, Purchaser and their respective Affiliates for money damages against the Company, its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current, or future shareholders, directors, officers, Affiliates or agents (collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) with respect to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including for any liabilities and Damages suffered as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated under any theory or for any reason), and upon payment of such amount, none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

Section 9.2 Non-Survival. None of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time, except for those covenants and agreements contained herein and therein which by their terms apply in whole or in part after the Effective Time and then only to such extent. For the avoidance of doubt, Section 6.5 shall survive for six (6) years from the Effective Time and shall be enforceable by the Indemnified Persons against Purchaser and the Company during such period. Each of Purchaser and the Company acknowledges and agrees that, except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement, (a) no party makes, and has not made, any representations or warranties relating to itself or its businesses or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) no person has been authorized by any party to make any representation or warranty relating to itself or its businesses or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, if made, such representation or warranty must not be relied upon as having been authorized by such party, and (c) any estimates, projections, predictions, data, financial information, memoranda, presentations or any other materials or information provided or addressed to any party or any of its Representatives are not and shall not be deemed to be or to include representations or warranties unless any such materials or information is expressly the subject of any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement.

Section 9.3 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 6.8, Section 6.14 and Section 8.2, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense.

Subject to the provisions of the Interim Order, the Plan of Arrangement and applicable Laws, this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement may be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto by action taken by or on behalf of their respective Boards of Directors at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after approval of the Arrangement by the Company Shareholders; provided, however, that (a) after approval of the Arrangement by the Company Shareholders, no amendment may be made which under applicable Law requires the further approval of the Company Shareholders without such further approval and (b) Section 8.2(g), this Section 9.4, Section 9.7, Section 9.10(d), Section 9.11(c), Section 9.11(d) and Section 9.13, to the extent relating to the Debt Financing Sources, may not be amended without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources.

Any such extension or waiver shall be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. The failure of any party to assert any rights or remedies shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies.

Section 9.6 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, provided that no party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of the other party hereto (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void and without effect), except that each of Purchaser and Parent may assign all or any of its rights and obligations hereunder (a) to any Affiliate thereof or (b) to any Financing Source pursuant to the terms of the Debt Financing for purposes of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assigning as collateral in respect of the Debt Financing and, after the Effective Date, any such Financing Source may exercise all of the rights and remedies of Purchaser or Parent, as applicable (or its Affiliate, as applicable) hereunder in connection with the enforcement of any security or exercise of any remedies to the extent permitted under the Debt Financing; provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Purchaser or Parent of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 9.7 Counterparts; Effectiveness; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signatures and in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective only when actually signed by each party hereto and each such party has received counterparts hereof signed by the other party hereto. No provision of this Agreement is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder or with respect hereto, except (a) the Indemnified Persons are express beneficiaries of and may enforce Section 6.5, (b) the Purchaser Related Parties are express beneficiaries of and may enforce Section 8.2(g) and Section 9.13, (c) the Company Related Parties are express beneficiaries of and may enforce Section 8.2(h) and Section 9.13 and (d) the Debt Financing Sources are express beneficiaries of and may enforce Section 9.4, this Section 9.7, Section 9.10(d), Section 9.11(c) and Section 9.11(d).

Section 9.8 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by virtue of any Law, or due to any public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 9.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including to the extent referred to herein, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Financing Commitments and the Guarantee) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all oral or written prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter. In entering into this Agreement no party is relying upon any promise, statement or representation made by or on behalf of any party except as expressly set forth herein. The parties expressly acknowledge that they have requested that this Agreement and all ancillary and related documents thereto be drafted in the English language only. Les parties aux présentes reconnaissent avoir exigé que la présente entente et tous les documents qui y sont accessoires soient rédigés en anglais seulement.

Section 9.10 Remedies. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred by this Agreement or by applicable Law on such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, although the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance and payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee, under no circumstances shall the Company, directly or indirectly, be permitted or entitled to receive: (i) both (A) a grant of specific performance to cause the Equity Financing to be funded (whether under this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letters) or the Closing to occur or other equitable relief, on the one hand, and (B) payment of any monetary damages whatsoever and/or the payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee, the Enforcement Expenses and the Reimbursement Obligations, on the other hand; or (ii) both (A) payment of any monetary damages whatsoever, on the one hand, and (B) payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee, the Enforcement Expenses and the Reimbursement Obligations, on the other hand.

(b) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur, monetary damages would be difficult to determine and would be an insufficient remedy and no other adequate remedy would exist at law or in equity, in each case in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached (or threatened to be breached). It is accordingly agreed that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The parties irrevocably waive any defenses based on adequacy of any other remedy, whether at law or in equity, that might be asserted as a bar to the remedy of specific performance of any of the terms or provisions hereof or injunctive relief in any action brought therefor.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Company Option, Company PSU, or Company RSU that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, to the extent that payment at the time described in this Section 4.1(b) would otherwise cause the imposition of a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, such payment shall instead be made at the earliest time permitted under the terms of the applicable Company Benefit Plan and applicable award agreement that will not result in the imposition of such Tax or penalty.

(c) Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 4.1, each certificate of Shares and Company Warrants shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender a cash payment in the manner contemplated by this Section 4.1, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section4.5.

(d) In the event of the surrender of a certificate of Shares or Company Warrants that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company under the name of the Person surrendering such certificate, the amount of cash to which the registered Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1 shall be paid to such a transferee if such certificate is presented to the Depositary and such certificate is duly endorsed or is accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes or any other Taxes required by reason of such payments being made in a name other than the registered Holder have been paid.

(e) Any portion of the amount deposited with the Depositary (including any interest and other income resulting from any investment of the Depositary with respect to such amount) that remains unclaimed by the Holders and other eligible Persons in accordance with this Article 4 following 180 days after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Company, and any Holder who has not previously complied with this Article 4 shall thereafter look only to the Company for, and, subject to Section 4.4, the Company shall remain liable for, payment of such Holder’s claim for payment under this Section 4.1.

4.2 Distributions with respect to Unsurrendered Certificates

No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the Holder of any unsurrendered certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Shares that were transferred pursuant to Section 3.1. At the time of such surrender of any such

B-9

certificate, there shall be paid to the Holder of the certificates representing Shares, without interest, the amount of cash to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1.

4.3 Lost Certificates

In the event any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Shares or Company Warrants that were transferred or cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1 is lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a cheque (or other form of immediately available funds) for the cash amount, deliverable in accordance with such Holder’s Letter of Transmittal. When authorizing such payment in exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Person to whom cash is to be delivered shall, as a condition precedent to the payment thereof, give a bond satisfactory to Purchaser and the Company and their respective transfer agents in such sum as Purchaser and the Company may direct or otherwise indemnify Purchaser and the Company in a manner satisfactory to Purchaser and the Company against any claim that may be made against Purchaser or the Company with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

4.4 Extinction of Rights

Any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Shares or Company Warrants that were transferred or cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1, and not deposited, with all other instruments required by Section 4.1, on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date shall cease to represent a claim or interest of any kind or nature as a Holder of Shares or Company Warrants or for the receipt of cash. On such date, the cash to which the former Holder of the certificate referred to in the preceding sentence was ultimately entitled shall be deemed to have been surrendered for no consideration to Purchaser. None of Purchaser or the Company shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

4.5 Withholding Rights

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each of Purchaser, the Company, the Depositary and any other Person that has any withholding obligation with respect to any amount payable hereunder shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to any Person hereunder such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such payment under the ITA, the Code or any provision of any federal, provincial, territorial, state, local or other Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid, provided that such deducted or withheld amounts are timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority.

From and after the Effective Time: (a) this Plan of Arrangement shall take precedence and priority over any and all Company Securities, including Shares, Company Options, Company RSUs, Company PSUs and the Company Warrant, issued or outstanding prior to the Effective Time; and (b) the rights and obligations of the holders (registered or beneficial) Company Securities, including Shares, Company Options, Company RSUs, Company PSUs and the Company Warrant, the Purchaser and its affiliates, the Depositary and any transfer agent or other depositary therefor in relation to this Plan of Arrangement shall be solely as provided for in this Plan of Arrangement.

RIGHTS OF DISSENT

5.1 Rights of Dissent

Holders of Shares as of the record date for the Company Meeting may exercise rights of dissent with respect to such Shares pursuant to and in the manner set forth in Section 190 of the CBCA as modified by the Interim Order and this Article 5 (“Dissent Rights”) in connection with the Arrangement; provided that, notwithstanding Subsection 190(5) of the CBCA, the written objection to the Arrangement Resolution referred to in Subsection 190(5) of the CBCA must be received by the Company not later than 5:00 p.m. on the second (2^nd) Business Day preceding the Company Meeting. Holders of Shares who duly exercise Dissent Rights and who:

(a) are ultimately determined to be entitled to be paid fair value for their Shares shall: (i) be deemed to have transferred such Shares to Purchaser as of the time stipulated in Section 3.1(g); (ii) in respect of such Shares be treated as not having participated in the transactions in Article 3 (other than Section 3.1(g)); (iii) be entitled to be paid, subject to Section 4.5, the fair value of such Shares by the Purchaser, which fair value shall be determined as of the close of business on the day before the Arrangement Resolution was adopted at the Company Meeting; and (iv) not be entitled to any other payment or consideration, including any payment that would be payable under the Arrangement had such Holders not exercised their Dissent Rights; or

(b) are ultimately determined not to be entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for their Shares shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis and at the same time as non-Dissenting Shareholders;

but in no case shall the Company, Purchaser, the Depositary or any other Person be required to recognize such holders as holders of Shares after the time stipulated in Section 3.1(g), and the name of such holders of Shares shall be deleted from the register of holders of Shares at the time

B-11

stipulated in Section 3.1(g) and Purchaser shall be considered the holder of 100% of the Shares immediately following the completion of the transactions contemplated by Section 3.1. For the avoidance of doubt, in no circumstances shall the Purchaser, the Company, the Depositary or any other Person be required to recognize a Person exercising Dissent Rights: (A) unless, as of the deadline for exercising Dissent Rights (as set forth in Section 5.1), such Person is the registered holder of those Shares in respect of which such Dissent Rights are sought to be exercised, (B) if such Person has voted or instructed a proxy holder to vote such Shares in favor of the Arrangement Resolution, or (C) unless such Person has strictly complied with the procedures for exercising Dissent Rights and does not withdraw such dissent prior to the Effective Time. In addition to any other restrictions under section 190 of the CBCA, none of the following shall be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights: holders of Company Options, Company RSUs, Company PSUs or the Company Warrant (in their capacity as holders of Company Options, Company RSUs, Company PSUs or the Company Warrant, as applicable).
