The applicable Borrower may select, by irrevocable notice to the Lender, the FROL Period to apply to any particular FROL Advance.  The applicable Borrower shall from time to time select and give notice to the Lender of the FROL Period for a FROL Advance which shall commence upon the making of the FROL Advance or at the expiry of any outstanding FROL Period applicable to a FROL Advance that is the subject of a Rollover.  If the applicable Borrower fails to select and give the Lender notice of a FROL Period for a FROL Advance in accordance with Section 13.5, any such FROL Advance shall be converted to a Prime Rate Advance under the applicable Credit, on the last day of the FROL Period applicable to such FROL Advance.

If at any time the Lender determines, acting reasonably, (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers) that it is not willing or able to provide a FROL Advance to a Borrower, then the Lender shall inform the Borrowers and the right of the Borrowers to request FROL Advances from the Lender shall be and remain suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrowers that FROL Advances are available.  In addition to the foregoing, the Lender shall not have any obligation to make a FROL Advance to any Borrower until such ancillary documents, including applications and other documents as it normally requires for similar transactions, has been executed by the Borrowers and delivered to the Lender.

The indebtedness of the Borrowers resulting from Advances made by the Lender shall be evidenced by records maintained by the Lender.  The records maintained by the Lender shall constitute, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive evidence of the indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Lender and all details relating thereto.  The failure of the Lender to correctly record any such amount or date shall not, however, adversely affect the obligation of the Borrowers to pay amounts due hereunder to the Lender in accordance with this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, request the Borrowers to execute and deliver from time to time promissory notes as may be required by the Lender and in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender as further evidence of the indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Lender.

Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, a Borrower may from time to time Convert all or any part of the outstanding amount of any Advance made to it into another form of Advance provided such other form of Advance is permitted under the applicable Credit.

Each Borrower will provide the Lender with at least three (3) Business Days' notice of its request for a FROL Advance, a BA Advance, a Letter of Credit Advance or a LIBOR Advance.  In the event a Borrower fails to give three (3) Business Days prior notice to the Lender of a conversion of a Prime Rate Advance to a BA Advance or a FROL Advance, the Lender may decline to accept Bankers' Acceptances or FROL Advances requested within this three (3) Business Day period.

provided that such acts in each case are to be undertaken by the Lender in accordance with instructions given to the Lender by such Borrower as provided in this Section 13.6.

(b)a Canadian Dollar amount, which shall be the aggregate Face Amount of the drafts to be accepted by the Lender in respect of a particular BA Advance;

The communication in writing by a Borrower to the Lender of the instructions referred to above shall constitute the authorization and instruction of such Borrower to the Lender to complete and execute drafts in accordance with such information as set out above and the request of such Borrower to the Lender to accept such drafts and deposit the same with the "clearing house" against payment as set out in the instructions.  Each Borrower acknowledges that the Lender shall not be obligated to accept any such drafts except in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.  The Lender shall be and it is hereby authorized to act on behalf of each Borrower upon and in compliance with instructions communicated to the Lender as provided herein if the Lender reasonably believes them to be genuine.

Each Borrower agrees to indemnify the Lender and its directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents and to hold it and them harmless from and against any loss, liability, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by any of them as a result of any action or inaction in any way relating to or arising out of this power of attorney or the acts contemplated hereby including the deposit of any draft with the "clearing house"; provided that this indemnity shall not apply to any such loss, liability, expense or claim which results from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Lender or any of its directors, officers, employees, affiliates or agents.

This power of attorney may be revoked by the Borrowers at any time upon not less than five (5) Business Days' written notice served upon the Lender at the address set out in this Agreement, provided that (i) it may be replaced with another power of attorney forthwith in accordance with the requirements of the Lender; and (ii) no such revocation shall reduce, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any draft executed, completed, discounted and/or deposited in accordance herewith prior to the time at which such revocation becomes effective.  This power of attorney may be terminated by the Lender at any time upon not less than five (5) Business Days' written notice to the Borrowers.  Any revocation or termination of this power of attorney shall not affect the rights of the Lender and the obligations of the Borrowers with respect to the indemnities of the Borrowers above stated.

This power of attorney is in addition to and not in substitution for any agreement to which the Lender and the Borrowers (or any of them) are parties.

If this power of attorney is revoked or terminated, to facilitate the acceptance of Bankers' Acceptances hereunder, the Borrowers shall from time to time as required by the Lender, provide the Lender with an appropriate number of executed drafts drawn in blank by the Borrowers in the form prescribed by the Lender.  Each Borrower may, at its option, execute any draft by the facsimile signatures of any two (2) of its authorized signing officers, and each Borrower and the Lender are hereby authorized to accept or pay, as the case may be, any draft of such Borrower which purports to bear such facsimile signatures notwithstanding that any such individual has ceased to be an authorized signing officer of such Borrower.  Any such draft or Bankers' Acceptance so executed and completed or executed and completed pursuant to the power of attorney shall be as valid as if he or she were an authorized signing officer of such Borrower at the date of issue of such Bankers' Acceptance.  Any such draft or Bankers' Acceptance may be dealt with by the Lender to all intents and purposes and shall bind each Borrower as if duly signed in each signing officer's own handwriting and issued by such Borrower, and each Borrower shall hold the Lender harmless and indemnified against all loss, costs, damages and expenses arising out of the payment or negotiation of any such draft or Bankers' Acceptance resulting from such drafts not having been duly signed other than any loss, costs, damages or expenses arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender. The Lender shall not be liable for any failure to accept a Bankers' Acceptance as required hereunder if the cause of such failure, in whole or in part, is due to the revocation or termination of the power of attorney or the failure of the Borrowers to provide executed drafts to the Lender on a timely basis.

The receipt by the Lender of a request for an Advance by way of Bankers' Acceptances shall be the Lender's sufficient authority to complete and sign, and the Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete and sign (as applicable) such drafts in

---

Each Advance of Bankers' Acceptances shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $1,000,000 and in whole multiples of $500,000 thereafter.  Each Bankers' Acceptance shall have a term which is not less than 30 days nor more than 180 days after the date of acceptance of the draft by the Lender, but no Bankers' Acceptance may mature on a date which is not a Business Day or on a date which is past the then current: (i) Credit B Maturity Date, if such Advance is requested under Credit B; (ii) Credit C Maturity Date, if such Advance is requested under Credit C; (iii) Credit D Maturity Date, if such Advance is requested under Credit D; or (iv) Credit G Maturity Date, if such Advance is requested under Credit G. The Face Amount at maturity of a Bankers' Acceptance may be Rolled Over as a Bankers' Acceptance or Converted into another form of Advance permitted by this Agreement in accordance with Section 13.4.

Provided that all other provisions of this Agreement relating to Advances have been met or satisfied on the applicable Drawdown Date, the Lender shall accept the drafts referred to in the applicable Drawdown Notice and shall discount the Bankers' Acceptances in the market or fund the Bankers' Acceptances at the applicable BA Discount Rate.  Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to complete, sign, stamp, hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of all Bankers' Acceptances accepted by it in accordance with the instructions provided by such Borrower hereunder or pursuant to the power of attorney referred to in Section 13.6.  The Lender shall then transfer to a Designated Account immediately available Canadian Dollars in an aggregate amount equal to the BA Discount Proceeds of all Bankers' Acceptances accepted by it on such Drawdown Date (net of the applicable Bankers' Acceptance Stamping Fee which is payable by such Borrower to the Lender in respect of such Bankers' Acceptances).

The Borrowers shall provide for the payment to the Lender at the Branch of Account for the account of the Lender of the full Face Amount of each Bankers' Acceptance issued at its request on the earlier of (i) its date of maturity and (ii) the date on which notice is given to the Borrowers pursuant to Section 16.2.

Except for amounts which are paid from the proceeds of Rollovers of a Bankers' Acceptance or other Advance or Conversion hereunder, any amount which the Lender pays to any third party on or after the date of maturity of a Bankers' Acceptance in satisfaction thereof or which is owing to the Lender by a Borrower in respect of such Bankers' Acceptance on or after the date of maturity of a Bankers' Acceptance shall be deemed to be a Prime Rate Advance to such Borrower under this Agreement.  Interest shall be payable on such Prime Rate Advances in accordance with the terms applicable to Prime Rate Advances.

---

 

No Borrower shall claim from the Lender or any other Person any days of grace for the payment at maturity of any Bankers' Acceptances presented and accepted by the Lender pursuant to this Agreement.  Each Borrower waives any defence to payment which might otherwise exist if for any reason a Bankers' Acceptance shall be held by the Lender in its own right at the maturity thereof, and the doctrine of merger shall not apply to any Bankers' Acceptance that is at any time held by the Lender in its own right.

Any executed drafts to be used as Bankers' Acceptances which are delivered to the Lender shall be held in safekeeping with the same degree of care as if they were such Lender's own property, and shall be kept at the place at which such drafts are ordinarily held by the Lender.

The Borrowers hereby indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from any reasonable loss or expense with respect to any Bankers' Acceptance dealt with by the Lender in accordance with the provisions hereof, but shall not be obliged to indemnify the Lender for any loss or expense caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Lender.

The obligations of the Borrowers with respect to Bankers' Acceptances under this Agreement shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following circumstances:

Subject to any other written agreement between the Borrowers and the Lender, if a Borrower requests that the Lender complete incomplete drafts pursuant to telephone instructions, such instructions are at the risk of such Borrower until confirmed in writing and the Lender shall not have any liability for any failure to carry out the same, wholly or in part, or for any error or omissions in such instructions or the interpretation or execution thereof by the Lender.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Lender fees calculated in accordance with Section 11.1 and payable quarterly in advance on the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the first day of each subsequent calendar quarter on which such Letter of Credit remains outstanding.  If the Face Amount of a Letter of Credit is reduced (either through presentment for payment or with the consent of the beneficiary thereof) or if the Letter of Credit is cancelled, subject to the Lender receiving a minimum amount of $100 (or such other minimum amount that the Lender may from time to time advise the Borrowers as the minimum fee that the Bank generally requires from its customer with respect to letters of credit issued) for each Letter of Credit issued by it, the portion of such fee that has been paid for the remaining term of the Letter of Credit and for the amount of such reduction or cancellation shall be refunded or returned to the Borrowers.

The following provisions shall apply to Letter of Credit Advances:

Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, upon timely fulfillment of all applicable conditions as set forth in this Agreement, the Lender will make the requested amount of a LIBOR Advance available to the applicable Borrower on the Drawdown Date requested by such Borrower by crediting such amount to the Designated Account maintained by such Borrower. Each LIBOR Advance shall be in a minimum amount of US$1,000,000 and in whole multiples of US$500,000 thereafter.  The Borrowers shall pay interest to the Lender at such address as the Lender designates from time to time on all such LIBOR Advances outstanding from time to time hereunder at the applicable rate of interest specified in Section 11.2.  All interest shall accrue from day to day both before and after demand, maturity, default and judgment, with interest on overdue interest at the rate applicable to the US Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin and two percent (2%) per annum and payable on demand.

A Borrower may select, by irrevocable notice to the Lender hereunder for LIBOR Advances the LIBOR Period to apply to any particular LIBOR Advance.  Such Borrower shall from time to time select and give notice to the Lender of the LIBOR Period for a LIBOR Advance which shall commence upon the making of the LIBOR Advance or at the expiry of any outstanding LIBOR Period applicable to a LIBOR Advance that is the subject of a Rollover.  If a Borrower fails to select and give the Lender, notice of a LIBOR Period for a LIBOR Advance in accordance with Section 13.5 any such LIBOR Advance shall be converted to a US Base Rate Advance, on the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable to such LIBOR Advance.

If the early termination of any LIBOR Advance is required hereunder, the Borrowers will pay to the Lender all expenses and out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Lender as a result of the early termination of the LIBOR Advance, including expenses and out-of-pocket costs incurred due to early redemption of offsetting deposits.  If, in the sole discretion of the Lender, acting reasonably, any such early termination cannot be affected, the LIBOR Advance will not be terminated and the applicable Borrower will continue to pay interest to the Lender, at the rate per annum applicable to such LIBOR Advance for the remainder of the applicable LIBOR Period.  A written statement of the Lender as to the aggregate amount of such expenses and out of pocket costs will be prima facie evidence of the amount thereof.

---

 

If at any time the Lender determines, acting reasonably, (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers) that:

then, upon at least three (3) Business Days' written notice by the Lender to the Borrowers,

Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender on its own behalf, and for and on behalf of each other Borrower and each other Consolidating Loan Party, that:

---

 

---

 

Unless expressly stated to be made as of a specific date, the representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive the execution of this Agreement and all other Credit Documents, and shall be deemed to be repeated as of the date of each Advance, on the date each Interim Funding Service is provided, on the date of each Lease Schedule and as of the date of delivery of each Compliance Certificate, subject to modifications made by the Borrowers to the Lender in writing and accepted by the Lender.  The Lender shall be deemed to have relied upon such representations and warranties at each such time as a condition of making an Advance hereunder or continuing to extend the Credits hereunder.

---

 

During the term of this Agreement, each Borrower covenants and agrees, for and on behalf of itself and each other Consolidating Loan Party, that each Consolidating Loan Party shall:

---

 

---

 

and immediately provide to the Lender, AGLC and the Quantity Surveyor, a copy of the proposed Change Order;

During the term of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall:

---

 

---

 

During the term of this Agreement each Borrower covenants and agrees, for and on behalf of itself and the other Consolidating Loan Parties, not to do any of the following without the prior written consent of the Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed):

---

 

the Project Budget, the Project Schedule or any Permit, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Lender and AGLC;

Each Borrower covenants and agrees for and on behalf of itself and each of the other Consolidating Loan Parties that at all times it shall:

---

 

unless, in each case, the Lender provides its prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.

The Financial Covenants set out above shall be tested at the Closing Date and as at the end of each Fiscal Quarter thereafter, determined on a consolidated trailing four (4) Fiscal Quarter basis (unless otherwise specified) in accordance with GAAP.

Each of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default":

---

 

---

 

and such petition, application or proceeding shall continue undismissed or unstayed and in effect, for a period of ten (10) days after the institution thereof, provided that if an order, decree or judgment which is not stayed has been granted (whether or not entered or subject to appeal) against the Loan Party or UHA thereunder, as applicable, in the interim, such grace period shall cease to apply; or

---

 

If any Default or Event of Default occurs and for so long as it continues, the Lender shall not be under any further obligation to make an Advance under any Credit, and upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Lender may give notice to the Borrowers declaring all or any of the Obligations under the Credits to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Obligations shall become and be forthwith due and payable without presentment, demand, protest

---

 

or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower; provided however, the Lender shall be deemed to give such notice to the Borrowers immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 16.1(g) or 16.1(h). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for greater certainty, Credit F is a non-committed demand facility and the lender shall have no obligation to make any Advance thereunder regardless of compliance by the Borrowers with any of the terms of the Agreement including, without limitations, the conditions precedent set forth in Article XII.

Immediately upon the making of a declaration referred to in Section 16.2 (or the deemed making of such declaration), the Borrowers shall, without necessity of further act or evidence, be and become thereby unconditionally obligated to deposit forthwith with the Lender Collateral equal to the Face Amount of all Bankers' Acceptances and Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by the Lender, and the Borrowers hereby unconditionally jointly and severally promise and agree to deposit with the Lender immediately upon such declaration Collateral in such amount.  Each Borrower authorizes the Lender to debit its account with the amount required to provide such Collateral for such Bankers' Acceptances and Letters of Credit, notwithstanding that such Bankers' Acceptances may be held by the Lender in its own right at maturity or that no draw has yet been made under a Letter of Credit.  Any amounts deposited hereunder shall bear interest for the Borrowers' account at the rates of the Lender as may be applicable in respect of other deposits of similar amounts for similar terms. Amounts paid to the Lender pursuant to such a declaration (or deemed declaration) in respect of Bankers' Acceptances and Letters of Credit shall be applied against the obligation of the Borrowers to pay amounts then or thereafter payable under Bankers' Acceptances and Letters of Credit at the times amounts become payable under or in respect thereof, as the case may be, and any amounts remaining shall be held by the Lender as security for the payment and performance of all remaining outstanding Obligations.

Upon the making of a declaration (or the deemed making of such declaration) contemplated by Section 16.2, the Security shall become immediately enforceable and the Lender may take such action or proceedings as the Lender, in its sole discretion, deems expedient to enforce the same, all without any additional notice, presentment, demand, protest or other formality, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower.

The Lender shall not be under any obligation to the Borrowers or any other Person to realize any collateral or enforce the Security or any part thereof or to allow any collateral to be sold, dealt with or otherwise disposed of.  The Lender shall not be responsible or liable to the Borrowers or any other Person for any loss or damage upon the realization or enforcement of, or the failure to realize or enforce, any collateral or any part thereof or the failure to allow any collateral to be sold, dealt with or otherwise disposed of, or for any act or omission on their respective parts or on the part of any director, officer, agent, servant or adviser in connection with any of the foregoing, except that the Lender will be responsible or liable for any loss or damage arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Lender in enforcing the Security.

---

 

If, after the Lender makes a declaration contemplated by Section 16.2 (or after such declaration is deemed to be made), the Borrowers have failed to perform any of their covenants or agreements in the Credit Documents, the Lender, may, but shall be under no obligation to, perform any such covenants or agreements in any manner deemed fit by the Lender without thereby waiving any rights to enforce the Credit Documents.  The reasonable expenses (including any legal costs) paid by the Lender in respect of the foregoing shall be added to and become part of the Obligations and shall be secured by the Security.

No Person dealing with the Lender or any agent of the Lender shall be concerned to inquire whether the Security has become enforceable, or whether the powers which the Lender is purporting to exercise have been exercisable, or whether any Obligations remain outstanding upon the security thereof, or as to the necessity or expediency of the stipulations and conditions subject to which any sale shall be made, or otherwise as to the propriety or regularity of any sale or other disposition or any other dealing with the collateral charged by such Security or any part thereof.

The rights and remedies of the Lender under the Credit Documents are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law.  Any single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect, or prejudice any other right or remedy or other rights or remedies to which the Lender may be lawfully entitled for the same default or breach.  Any waiver by the Lender of the strict observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant, condition or agreement herein contained, and any indulgence granted by the Lender, shall be deemed not to be a waiver of any subsequent default.

In addition to and not in limitation of any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Laws, the Lender may at any time and from time to time without notice to any Borrower or any other Person, any notice being expressly waived by each Borrower, set-off, combine accounts and compensate and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, matured or unmatured, in any currency, and any other indebtedness at any time owing by the Lender to or for the credit of or the account of a Borrower, against and on account of the Obligations, notwithstanding that any of them are contingent or unmatured.  When applying a deposit or other amount owing to the Lender in a currency that is different than the currency of the Obligations, the Lender will convert the deposit or other amount using the Exchange Rate in effect at the time of such conversion.

---

 

The Credit Documents shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of the Lender, each Loan Party and their successors and assigns. No Borrower (or the other Loan Parties) shall be entitled to assign any rights or obligations with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents to any third party without the prior written consent of the Lender.  The Lender shall have the right to assign its collective rights and obligations under this Agreement in whole or in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (the "Lender Assignment") with the consent of the Borrowers, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided however, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, no consent of any Borrower will be required hereunder to any such Lender Assignment.

The headings of the Articles and Sections and the Table of Contents are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

All capitalized terms used in any of the Credit Documents (other than this Agreement) which are defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning defined herein unless otherwise defined in such other Credit Document.

Any provision of this Agreement which is or becomes prohibited or unenforceable in any relevant jurisdiction shall not invalidate or impair the remaining provisions hereof which shall be deemed severable from such prohibited or unenforceable provision and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any such jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Should this Agreement fail to provide for any relevant matter, the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement shall not hereby be affected.

Unless the context otherwise requires, words importing the singular number shall include the plural and vice versa, words importing any gender include all genders and references to agreements and other contractual instruments shall be deemed to include all present or future amendments, supplements, restatements or replacements thereof or thereto.  References to statutes, regulations and other Applicable Laws shall be deemed to include such statutes, regulations and other Applicable Laws as amended, supplemented and replaced from time to time.

---

 

The words "include", "includes" and "including" shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase "without limitation".  The word "will" shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word "shall".  Unless the context requires otherwise:

Whenever the delivery of a certificate is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the Lender hereunder, the truth and accuracy of the facts and the diligent and good faith determination of the opinions stated in such certificate shall in each case be conditions precedent to the right of the applicable Borrower to have such action taken, and any certificate executed by a Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that the facts stated in such certificate are true and accurate.

No amendment, supplement or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, nor any consent to any departure by a Loan Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless it is in writing, makes express reference to the provision affected thereby and is signed by the Lender, the Borrowers and if applicable, the appropriate Loan Party and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  No waiver or act or omission of the Lender shall extend to or be taken in any manner whatsoever to affect any subsequent breach by a Loan Party of any provision of the Credit Documents or the rights resulting therefrom.

Each of the Credit Documents shall be conclusively deemed to be a contract made under, and shall for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Alberta and the laws of Canada applicable in Alberta.  Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally attorns to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Alberta and all courts competent to hear appeals therefrom.

---

 

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any other Credit Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern to the extent necessary to remove the conflict.  Provided however, a conflict shall not be deemed to occur if one Credit Document provides for a matter and another Credit Document does not.

The designation of an Encumbrance as a Permitted Encumbrance is not, and shall not be deemed to be, an acknowledgment by the Lender that the Encumbrance shall have priority over the Security.

All payments made hereunder shall be made in the currency in respect of which the obligation requiring such payment arose.  Unless otherwise noted, all amounts expressed in this Agreement in terms of money refer to Canadian Dollars.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, wherever this Agreement contemplates or requires the calculation of the equivalent in Canadian Dollars or US Dollars of an amount expressed in another, the calculation shall be made on the basis of the Exchange Rate at the effective date of the calculation.

All statements, reports, certificates, opinions, appraisals and other documents or information required to be furnished to the Lender by the Borrowers (or any of them) or a Subsidiary under this Agreement shall be supplied without cost to the Lender.  The Borrowers shall pay on demand all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses of the Lender (including, without limitation, long distance telephone and courier charges and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Lender), incurred in connection with (i) the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, periodic review, modification or amendment of the Credit Documents; (ii) any enforcement of the Credit Documents; (iii) obtaining advice as to the rights and responsibilities of the Lender in connection with the Credits and the Credit Documents; (iv) reviewing, inspecting and appraising the collateral that is the subject of the Security in connection with the enforcement of its rights under the Security; (v) the repayment, prepayment or Conversion (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of a LIBOR Advance on a date other than the stated maturity thereof; and (vi) other matters relating to the Credits, or any of them.  Such costs and expenses shall be payable whether or not an Advance is made under this Agreement.

Each Borrower shall indemnify the Lender against any liability, obligation, loss or expense which it may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) any representation or warranty made by a Loan Party which was incorrect at the time it was made or deemed to have been made, (ii) a default by a Loan Party in the payment of any sum due from it (irrespective of whether an Advance is deemed to be made to the Borrowers to pay the amount that the Borrowers have failed to pay), including, but not limited to, all sums (whether in respect of principal, interest, or any other amount) paid or payable to lenders of funds borrowed by the Lender in order to fund the amount

---

 

of any such unpaid amount to the extent the Lender is not reimbursed pursuant to any other provisions of this Agreement, (iii) the failure of the Borrowers (or any of them) to complete any Advance or make any payment after notice therefore has been given under this Agreement, and (iv) any other default by any Loan Party under any Credit Document.  A certificate of the Lender as to the amount of any such loss or expense shall be conclusive evidence as to the amount thereof, in the absence of manifest error.

In addition, each Borrower shall indemnify the Lender and its directors, officers, employees and representatives (the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all actions, proceedings, claims, losses, damages, liabilities, expenses and obligations of any kind that may be incurred by or asserted against any of them as a result of or in connection with the making of any Advance hereunder and the Lender taking, holding and enforcing the Security, other than arising from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Lender or any other Indemnified Party.  Whenever any such claim shall arise, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Borrowers of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim, and if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the claim.  The failure of an Indemnified Party to give notice of a claim promptly shall not adversely affect the Indemnified Party's rights to indemnity hereunder unless such failure adversely effects the Borrowers' position in respect of such claim.

The Agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and repayment of the Obligations.

All payments to be made by a Loan Party pursuant to the Credit Documents are to be made without set-off, compensation or counterclaim, free and clear of and without deduction for or on account of any Tax, including but not limited to withholding taxes, except for Taxes on the overall net income of the Lender (such taxes applicable to the overall net income of the Lender are herein referred to as "Excluded Taxes").  If any Tax, other than Excluded Taxes, is deducted or withheld from any payments under the Credit Documents the Loan Parties shall promptly remit to the Lender in the currency in which such payment was made, the equivalent of the amount of Tax so deducted or withheld together with the relevant receipt addressed to the Lender.  If a Borrower or any other Loan Party is prevented by operation of law or otherwise from paying, causing to be paid or remitting such Tax, the interest or other amount payable under the Credit Documents will be increased to such rates as are necessary to yield and remit to the Lender the principal sum advanced or made available together with interest at the rates specified in the Credit Documents after provision for payment of such Tax.  If following the making of any payment by a Borrower or other Loan Party, as applicable, under this Section 18.11, the Lender is granted a credit against or refund in respect of any Tax payable by it in respect of such Taxes to which such payment by such Borrower or such other Loan Party relates that the Lender would not have received had the Borrowers or such other Loan Party not made the payment, the Lender shall (subject to such Borrower having paid the relevant amount) to the extent that it is satisfied that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit or refund, reimburse such Borrower or such other Loan Party such amount as the Lender shall certify to be the proportion of such credit or refund as will leave the Lender, after such reimbursement, in no worse or better position than it would have been in if the relevant Taxes had not been imposed, or the relevant Taxes had not been deducted or withheld in respect of the payment by such Borrower or such other Loan Party as

aforesaid.  The Lender shall, at the Borrowers' request and cost, file such documentation and do such commercially reasonably things as may be necessary to obtain such credit or refund, but the Lender shall not be obligated to disclose any information to the Borrowers or any other Person concerning its income or taxes that is not otherwise publicly available.

If a Borrower or any other Loan Party makes any payment under this Section for the account of the Lender, the Lender shall take reasonable steps to minimize the net amount payable by such Borrower or such other Loan Party under this Section, but the Lender shall not be obliged to disclose any information to the Borrowers or such other Loan Party concerning its income or taxes that is not otherwise publicly available.

If the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, or any change in its application to a Borrower or the Lender of, any law or any regulation or guideline from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), including but not limited to any reserve or special deposit requirement or any Taxes or exemption from any tax or any capital requirement (each of the foregoing events shall be referred to as a "Change in Law"), has, due to the compliance by the Lender therewith, the effect, directly or indirectly, of (i) increasing the cost to the Lender of performing its obligations hereunder; (ii) reducing any amount received or receivable by the Lender hereunder or its effective return hereunder or on its capital; or (iii) causing the Lender to make any payment or to forego any return based on any amount received or receivable by the Lender hereunder, then upon demand from time to time the Borrowers shall pay such amount as shall compensate the Lender for any such cost, reduction, payment or foregone return that is not fully offset by an increase in the applicable interest rate or rates or fees hereunder (collectively, the "Additional Compensation"). Any certificate of the Lender in respect of the foregoing will be conclusive evidence of the Additional Compensation owing by the Borrowers to the Lender, except for manifest error.  The Lender shall use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize any and all increased costs contemplated by this Section 18.12. 

Without prejudice to any other method of giving notice, all communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and delivered to the addressee by prepaid private courier or sent by transmittal by telecopy or other electronic means of communication to the addressed to the respective parties as follows:

Any party may change its address for service by notice given in the foregoing manner.

For the purposes of "promotional marketing", the Borrowers authorize and consent to the reproduction, disclosure and use by the Lender and its counsel of their names, identifying logos and information regarding the Credits (other than the fees and interest rate applicable to the Credits) to enable the Lender and its counsel to publish deal announcements and promotional "tombstones".  Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Lender and its counsel shall be entitled to determine, in its discretion, whether to use such information, that no compensation will be payable by the Lender or its counsel in connection therewith, and that neither the Lender nor its counsel shall have any liability whatsoever to the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any of their respective employees, officers, directors, Affiliates or shareholders in obtaining and lawfully using such information as contemplated herein.

Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.

Each of the Borrowers shall, at the request of the Lender, do all such further acts and execute and deliver all such further documents as may, in the reasonable opinion of the Lender, be necessary or desirable in order to fully perform and carry out the purpose and intent of the Credit Documents.

Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

---

 

Whenever any payment or performance under the Credit Documents would otherwise be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day, provided that interest and fees (as applicable) shall continue to accrue and be payable until the applicable payment or performance has been completed.

In this Agreement, each rate of interest which is calculated with reference to a period (the "deemed interest period") that is less than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation is, for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), equivalent to a rate based on a calendar year calculated by multiplying such rate of interest by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing by the number of days in the deemed interest period.

Each Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lender that, in the case of any judicial or other proceeding to enforce the rights and remedies of the Lender under the Credit Documents (or any part thereof), judgment may be rendered against any Loan Party in favour of the Lender, for any amount owing by them under all or any of the Credit Documents (or for which any  Loan Party may be liable thereunder after the application to the payment thereof of the proceeds of any sale of any of the property, assets or undertaking of the such Loan Party).  The covenants of the Borrowers to pay interest at the rate provided for in this Agreement shall not merge in any such judgment and such judgment shall bear interest at the Prime Rate Advance Rate plus 2.0% per annum until such judgment and all Obligations of the Borrowers to the Lender under the Credit Documents have been paid in full.

Each Borrower acknowledges that, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and "know your client" Applicable Laws (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, the "AML Legislation"), the Lender may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Loan Parties (or any of them), their respective directors and signing officers and the transactions contemplated herein. Each Borrower shall promptly: (i) provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by the Lender, or any prospective assignee of the Lender, in order to comply with any AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence; and (ii) notify the Lender of such information of any changes thereto.  The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Credits are for the use by the Borrowers and will be used by the Borrowers, only for the purposes set out herein.

The Obligations owing to the Lender and the Hedge Providers by each Borrower hereunder and under all of the other Credit Documents shall be jointly and severally binding on the Borrowers.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  For the purposes of this Section, the delivery of a facsimile copy of an executed counterpart of this Agreement shall be deemed to be valid execution and delivery of this Agreement, but the party delivering a facsimile copy shall deliver an original copy of this Agreement as soon as possible after delivering the facsimile copy.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto concerning the matters addressed in this Agreement, and cancel and supersede any prior agreements, undertakings, declarations or representations, written or verbal, in respect thereof.

This Agreement amends and restates the Prior Credit Agreement without in any way affecting the rights or obligations of any party which may have accrued as of the date hereof pursuant to the provisions of such agreement prior to their amendment hereby, and all indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of CCSA and CRAI to the Lender under the Prior Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, all Advances outstanding under the Prior Credit Facilities as of the date of this Agreement and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, shall be construed as Obligations of the Borrowers to the Lender under this Agreement.

Each of CCSA and CRAI hereby acknowledges and agrees that all the Credit Documents, including without limitation the Security to which it (including any of its predecessors by amalgamation) is a party, previously delivered by it to the Lender remains in full force and effect, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms and shall continue to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations and the Security and the fixed and floating charges created therein shall survive and continue to charge the assets originally charged thereunder from and after the date of this Agreement to secure the Obligations.
