Reverse of Security

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Corporation designated as its 2.239% Notes due 2025 (herein called the “Securities”) issued under an amended and restated indenture dated as of December 21, 2010 (herein called the “Amended and Restated Indenture”) among the Corporation, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as Canadian trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as U.S. trustee (herein called the “U.S. Trustee”) and a Ninth Supplemental Indenture between the Corporation, the Trustee and the U.S. Trustee as of May 14, 2020 (the “ Ninth Supplemental Indenture,” and collectively referred to herein as, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the Corporation, the Trustee and the Holders, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is a global Security representing C$1,400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

The Securities will be direct, unsecured obligations of the Corporation and will not be guaranteed. The Securities will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Corporation.

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Corporation maintained or caused to be maintained for that purpose in Toronto, Ontario or at such other office or agency of the Corporation as may be maintained or caused to be maintained for such purpose, in such coin or currency of Canada as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest may be made at the option of the Corporation (i) by cheque mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer to an account maintained by the payee located in the United States or Canada; provided, that principal paid in relation to any Security, redeemed at the option of the Corporation or upon Maturity, shall be paid to the Holder of such Security only upon presentation and surrender of such Security to such office or agency referred to above.

This Security is not subject to any sinking fund.

Any Person who assumes the Corporation’s obligations hereunder as a result of an amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease effected in compliance with Article Eight of the Amended and Restated Indenture and who is domiciled or otherwise resident for Tax purposes in a jurisdiction other than Canada or a political subdivision thereof will pay to the Holders such additional amounts as may be payable under Section 1005 of the Amended and Restated Indenture, as amended by the Ninth Supplemental Indenture.

Before April 14, 2025, the Securities are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 days’ and not more than 60 days’ notice, at any time, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Corporation, at a Redemption Price which is equal to the greater of (i) the Canada Yield Price and (ii) par, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date, all as provided in the

- 24 -

Indenture. On or after April 14, 2025, the Securities are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 days’ and not more than 60 days’ notice, at any time, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Corporation, at a Redemption Price which is equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Securities, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date, all as provided in the Indenture. Such accrued interest and the Redemption Price will be calculated on the basis of a365-day year. Unless the Corporation defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, on or after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or the portions thereof called for redemption.

“Canada Yield Price” means a price equal to the price of the Securities calculated to provide a yield to maturity equal to the Government of Canada Yield plus 46.5 basis points on the business day on which the redemption is authorized.

“Government of Canada Yield” means the interest rate quoted to the Corporation by one of BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., RBC Dominion Securities Inc. and TD Securities Inc. or their respective successors (selected by the Corporation and approved by the Notes Trustee) as being the annual yield to maturity, compounded semi-annually and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which anon-callable Government of Canada bond would carry if issued, in Canadian dollars in Canada, at 100% of its principal amount on the Redemption Date with a maturity equal to May 14, 2025.

Where any Person assumes the Corporation’s obligations pursuant to Article Eight of the Amended and Restated Indenture and such Person is domiciled or otherwise resident for Tax purposes in a jurisdiction other than Canada or a political subdivision thereof (such that, pursuant to Section 2.03(f) of the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of Sections 2.03(h)(B)(I) through (VII) and Section 2.03(h)(C) of the Ninth Supplemental Indenture have become applicable to such Person with such modifications, additions or substitutions as may be appropriate with respect to such jurisdiction), the Securities will also be redeemable, at such Person’s option, in whole and not in part, at any time, at 100% of the aggregate principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption by the Corporation (including Foreign Additional Amounts), upon the giving of a notice as described in Section 1102 and Section 1104 of the Amended and Restated Indenture, if (1) such Person determines that (a) as a result of any change in or amendment to (including any officially announced prospective change or amendment) the laws (or any rules, regulations, rulings or administrative pronouncements promulgated thereunder) of any Foreign Taxing Jurisdiction, or any change in official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, rules, regulations, rulings or administrative pronouncements (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective (assuming, in the case of any announced prospective change, that such announced change will become effective as of the date specified in such announcement and in the form announced) on or after the date such successor Person assumes the Corporation’s obligations, such Person has or will become obligated to pay, on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, Foreign Additional Amounts with respect to any Securities or (b) on or after the date such successor Person assumes the Corporation’s obligations, any action has been taken by any Foreign Taxing Jurisdiction, including any of those actions specified in clause (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or decision was rendered with respect to such Person, or any change, amendment, application or interpretation shall be officially proposed (assuming that such announced change will become effective as of the date specified in such

- 25 -

announcement and in the form announced), which, in any such case, in the Opinion of Counsel to such Person, will result in such Person becoming obligated to pay, on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, Foreign Additional Amounts with respect to any Securities, and (2) in any such case, such Person in its business judgment determines that such obligation cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to such Person (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include a change in the terms of the Securities or a substitution of the debtor); provided however, that at the time such notice of redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Foreign Additional Amounts remains in effect.

In the case of any redemption of Securities, interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Date referred to on the face hereof. Securities (or portions thereof) for whose redemption provision is made in accordance with the Indenture shall cease to bear interest from and after the Redemption Date.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Ninth Supplemental Indenture) occurs, unless the Corporation has exercised its right to redeem the Securities, the Corporation will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Securities on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03(i) of the Ninth Supplemental Indenture except that the Corporation will not be required to make such an offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Corporation, and such third party purchases all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

In addition to the Events of Default provided for in the Indenture and subject to certain exceptions described in the Indenture, (i) the failure by the Corporation or any Material Subsidiary to pay, when due, the principal of any Debt of the Corporation or any Material Subsidiary (other than any Debt which is owed to the Corporation or a Subsidiary) or to pay amounts due under any Guarantee of any Debt if the aggregate principal amount of such obligations and guaranteed obligations exceeds 3% of Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity and, in any such case, the time for payment has not been effectively extended, excluding any of the above events in respect of certain Debt where the creditor can only have recourse to an action in damages and/or to specified assets or revenues, or (ii) the failure by the Corporation to comply with its obligations set forth in Section 2.03(i) of the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, will constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities, and continuance of such condition for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Corporation by the Trustee or to the Corporation and the Trustee by Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities a written notice specifying such condition and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture, will constitute an Event of Default. In the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect to the Securities because an Event of Default described in clause (i) of this paragraph has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall

- 26 -

be automatically annulled if the Debt that is subject to such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Debt and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Corporation on this Security and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related Defaults and Events of Default, in each case upon compliance by the Corporation with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security.

The Corporation has the right at any time, without notice to or consent of the Holders, to designate one of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries (as defined in the Ninth Supplemental Indenture) that is incorporated and existing under the laws of Canada or any province thereof, any state of the United States, the United Kingdom, or any country that is a member of the European Union to assume, asco-obligor (a“Co-Obligor”) on a joint and several basis with the Corporation, all obligations of the Corporation under the Indenture (insofar as it applies to the Securities) and the Securities, provided that the conditions set out in the Indenture are satisfied. The obligations of theCo-Obligor under the Securities shall rank equally with all of theCo-Obligor’s other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Corporation and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series affected thereby under the Indenture at any time by the Corporation and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of all affected Securities at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities affected thereby, to waive compliance by the Corporation with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

The Corporation may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders, create and issue further Securities rankingpari passu with the Securities in all respects (or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of the Securities or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of the Securities) and so that such further Securities may be consolidated and form a single series with the Securities and have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Securities.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Corporation, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on this Security at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

- 27 -

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registerable on the Security Register of the Corporation, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Corporation maintained or caused to be maintained for such purpose in the Province of Ontario or at a central register maintained by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office in Toronto, Ontario, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of C$1,000 and integral multiples thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Corporation may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith, other than certain exchanges as specified in the Indenture.

Prior to the time of due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Corporation, the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and none of the Corporation, the Trustee or any agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

If at any time, (i) the Depositary notifies the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable or no longer qualifies to continue as Depositary and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Corporation within 90 days after the Corporation receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, or (ii) the Corporation determines that the Securities shall no longer be represented by a global Security or Securities, then in such event the Corporation will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver Securities in definitive registered form, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Security in exchange for this Security. Such Securities in definitive registered form shall be registered in such names and issued in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

Any money that the Corporation deposits with the Trustee or held by the Corporation in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or any interest on the Securities that remains unclaimed for two years after the date upon which the principal, premium, if any, or interest are due and payable, will be repaid to the Corporation upon the Corporation’s request subject to the mandatory provisions of any applicable unclaimed property law. After that time, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of any unclaimed property law, the Holder will be able to seek any payment to which that Holder may be entitled to collect only from the Corporation.

- 28 -

The Corporation’s obligation to pay the principal of (or premium, if any) and interest on the Securities will cease if the Securities are not presented for payment within a period of ten years and a claim for interest is not made within five years from the date on which such principal, premium, if any, or interest, as the case may be, becomes due and payable.

The Indenture and this Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Il y a lieu de se reporter à cet acte de fiducie et aux actes de fiducie supplémentaires pour connaître l’énoncé des droits, des limitations de droits, des tâches, des obligations et des immunités respectifs aux termes de ces actes de la Société, du fiduciaire et des porteurs, de même que les modalités selon lesquelles les titres sont, et doivent être, authentifiés et remis.

Toutefois, il est entendu que le capital (et la prime y afférente, s’il y lieu) et l’intérêt peuvent être payés au gré de la Société (i) par un chèque posté à l’adresse de la personne qui y a droit à l’adresse figurant dans le registre de titres ou (ii) par un virement télégraphique à un compte situé auxÉtats-Unis ou au Canada et tenu par la personne qui y a droit.

Toute personne qui prend en charge les obligations de la Société aux termes des présentes par suite d’une fusion, d’un regroupement, d’un transport, d’un transfert, d’une cession ou d’un bail réalisé conformément à l’article huit de l’acte de fiducie modifié et mis à jour et qui est domiciliée ou réside autrement aux fins fiscales dans un territoire autre que le Canada ou une division politique du Canada paiera aux porteurs les sommes additionnelles qui doivent être payées en vertu de l’article 1005 de l’acte modifié et mis à jour, tel qu’il est modifié par le neuvième acte de fiducie supplémentaire.

Avant le 14 avril 2025, les titres sont assujettis au rachat sur avis d’au moins 30 jours et d’au plus 60 jours, en tout temps, en totalité ou en partie, au gré de la Société, à un prix de rachat correspondant à la plus élevée des sommes suivantes : (i) le prix de rendement des obligations du Canada et (ii) au pair, majoré, dans chaque cas, de l’intérêt couru et impayé jusqu’à la date de rachat, le tout conformément aux modalités de l’acte de fiducie. À compter du 14 avril 2025, les titres sont assujettis au rachat sur avis d’au moins 30 jours et d’au plus 60 jours, en tout temps, en totalité ou en partie, au gré de la Société, à un prix de rachat correspondant à 100 % du montant de capital de ces titres, majoré de l’intérêt couru et impayé jusqu’à la date de rachat, le tout conformément aux modalités de l’acte de fiducie. L’intérêt couru et le prix de rachat seront calculés sur la base d’une année comptant 365 jours. À moins que la Société n’omette de payer le prix de rachat à la date de rachat ou après cette date, l’intérêt cessera de courir sur les titres ou les tranches de titres appelés au rachat.

Le terme « prix de rendement des obligations du Canada » désigne un prix correspondant au prix des titres, calculé de façon à fournir un rendement à l’échéance égal au rendement des obligations du gouvernement du Canada, majoré de 46,5 points de base le jour ouvrable où le rachat est autorisé.

Le terme « rendement des obligations du gouvernement du Canada » désigne le taux d’intérêt fourni à la Société par l’un de BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., de RBC Dominion valeurs mobilières Inc. et de Valeurs Mobilières TD Inc. ou leurs remplaçants respectifs (choisi par la Société et approuvé par le fiduciaire pour les billets (Notes Trustee)) comme étant le rendement annuel à l’échéance, composé semestriellement et calculé conformément aux pratiques financières généralement reconnues, qu’une obligation non remboursable du gouvernement du Canada comporterait si elle était émise en dollars canadiens au Canada, à 100 % de son capital à la date de rachat, avec une date d’échéance tombant le 14 mai 2025.

Lorsqu’une personne prend en charge les obligations de la Société aux termes de l’article huit de l’acte de fiducie modifié et mis à jour et que cette personne est domiciliée ou réside autrement aux fins fiscales dans un territoire autre que le Canada ou une division politique du Canada (de sorte qu’aux termes de l’article 2.03(f) du neuvième acte de fiducie supplémentaire, les dispositions des alinéas (I) à (VII) de l’article 2.03(h)(B) et l’article 2.03(h)(C) du neuvième acte de fiducie supplémentaire sont devenues applicables à cette personne, compte tenu des modifications, des ajouts ou des remplacements qui peuvent être appropriés pour ce territoire), les titres pourront également être rachetés, au gré de cette personne, en totalité mais non pas en partie, en tout temps, en contrepartie de 100 % du capital total, majoré de l’intérêt couru et impayé y afférent jusqu’à la date fixée pour le rachat par la Société (y compris les montants supplémentaires étrangers), par la remise d’un avis de la manière indiquée aux articles 1102 et 1104 de l’acte de fiducie modifié et mis à jour, si (1) cette personne détermine a) que par suite d’un changement ou d’une modification

- 30 -

(y compris un changement ou une modification de nature prospective annoncé officiellement) des lois (ou des règles, des règlements ou des décisions, notamment administratives, promulgués aux termes decelles-ci) d’une juridiction fiscale étrangère, ou par suite d’un changement dans la position officielle concernant l’application ou l’interprétation de ces lois, règles, règlements ou décisions, notamment administratives (y compris une décision rendue par un tribunal compétent), ce changement ou cette modification étant annoncé ou entrant en vigueur (en supposant que dans le cas d’un changement de nature prospective annoncé officiellement, ce changement annoncé entre en vigueur à la date précisée dans l’annonce et dans la forme annoncée) à compter de la date, inclusivement, à laquelle cette personne remplaçante prend en charge les obligations de la Société, cette personne est ou sera tenue de payer, à la prochaine date de versement de l’intérêt, les montants supplémentaires étrangers relativement aux titres, ou b) qu’à compter de la date, inclusivement, à laquelle cette personne remplaçante prend en charge les obligations de la Société, une mesure a été prise par une juridiction fiscale étrangère, y compris l’une des mesures précisées à l’alinéa a)ci-dessus, que cette mesure ou cette décision ait été prise ou non relativement à cette personne, ou tout changement, modification, application ou interprétation est officiellement proposé (en supposant que ce changement annoncé entre en vigueur à la date précisée dans l’annonce et dans la forme annoncée), ce qui, dans chaque cas, de l’avis des conseillers juridiques de cette personne, fera en sorte que cette personne soit tenue de payer, à la prochaine date de versement d’intérêt, les montants supplémentaires étrangers relativement à ces titres et 2) dans un tel cas, cette personne détermine, en s’appuyant sur son appréciation commerciale, qu’il est impossible d’éviter cette obligation en ayant recours aux mesures raisonnables dont elle pourrait user (ce qui, pour plus certitude, n’inclut pas un changement dans les modalités des titres ou un changement de débiteur); étant entendu, toutefois, qu’au moment de la remise d’un tel avis de rachat, l’obligation de payer ces montants supplémentaires étrangers demeure en vigueur.

Dans le cas de rachats de titres, les versements d’intérêt dont l’échéance déclarée correspond au plus tard à la date de rachat seront payables aux porteurs inscrits de ces titres à la fermeture des bureaux à la date de clôture des registres pertinente mentionnée au recto des présentes. Les titres (ou une partie deceux-ci) pour lesquels une provision de rachat est constituée conformément à l’acte de fiducie cesseront de porter intérêt à compter de la date de rachat.

Dans l’hypothèse du rachat d’une partie seulement du présent titre, un ou plusieurs nouveaux titres représentant la partie non rachetée decelui-ci seront émis au nom du porteur en question à l’annulation du titre racheté en partie.

Si un événement donnant lieu à un changement de contrôle se produit (au sens donné au terme « change of control triggering event » dans le dixième acte de fiducie supplémentaire), à moins que la Société n’ait exercé son droit de racheter les titres, la Société sera tenue de présenter une offre de rachat à l’égard des titres selon les modalités, et sous réserve des conditions, présentées à l’article 203(i) du dixième acte de fiducie supplémentaire. Toutefois, la Société ne sera pas tenue de présenter une telle offre si une tierce partie présente une offre en conformité avec les exigences d’une offre présentée par la Société, notamment pour ce qui est de la manière dont elle est présentée et des moments auxquels elle est présentée, et que cette tierce partie achète la totalité des titres dûment déposés en réponse à l’offre, sans que leur dépôt soit révoqué.

Dans l’hypothèse où un cas de défaut survient et se poursuit, le capital des titres pourrait être déclaré comme étant dû et payable de la manière prévue dans l’acte de fiducie et avec l’effet qui y est prévu.

En plus des cas de défaut prévus dans l’acte de fiducie et sous réserve de certaines exceptions indiquées dans l’acte de fiducie, (i) l’omission de la Société ou d’une filiale importante, à l’échéance, de rembourser le capital d’une dette de la Société ou d’une filiale importante (exception faite d’une dette exigible par la Société ou par une filiale) ou l’omission de verser des montants exigibles aux termes de la garantie d’une dette, si le capital global des obligations garanties ou non dépasse 3 % de l’avoir consolidé des actionnaires et, dans un tel cas, si la date d’échéance du paiement n’a pas été reportée, sauf si les casci-dessus se rapportent à certaines dettes à l’égard desquelles le créancier ne peut avoir recours qu’à une action endommages-intérêts et/ou ne visant que certains actifs ou produits d’exploitation, ou (ii) l’omission de la Société de respecter ses obligations énoncées à l’article 203(i) du dixième acte de fiducie supplémentaire, constituera un cas de défaut à l’égard des titres et le fait que ce cas de défaut perdure pendant une période de 60 jours après qu’un avis écrit précisant ce cas de défaut, exigeant qu’il y soit remédié et avisant qu’il s’agit d’un « avis de cas de défaut » aux termes de l’acte de fiducie, a été remis par courrier recommandé ou certifié à la Société par le fiduciaire, ou à la Société et au fiduciaire par les porteurs d’au moins 25 % en capital des titres en circulation, constitueront des cas défaut. Dans l’hypothèse où survient une déclaration de perte du bénéfice du terme relativement aux titres en raison de la survenance et du maintien d’un cas de défaut décrit au point (i) du présent paragraphe, une telle déclaration de perte du bénéfice du terme sera automatiquement annulée si la dette visée par le cas de défaut a été réglée ou si les porteurs de la dette ont annulé leur déclaration de perte du bénéfice du terme relativement à la dette et si aucun autre cas de défaut n’est survenu au cours d’une période de 30 jours sans avoir fait l’objet d’un règlement ou d’une renonciation au cours de cette période.

L’acte de fiducie contient des clauses concernant en tout temps a) le désendettement de la totalité de la dette qui incombe à la Société aux termes du présent titre et b) l’extinction de certaines clauses restrictives et des défauts et cas de défaut y afférents, dans chaque cas suite au respect par la Société de certaines conditions qui y sont décrites. Ces clauses s’appliquent au présent titre.

La Société peut, à tout moment, sans préavis aux porteurs ni consentement de ces derniers, désigner une de ses filiales en propriété exclusive (au sens donné au terme « wholly-owned subsidiairies » dans le dixième acte de fiducie supplémentaire) qui est constituée et existe sous le régime des lois du Canada ou d’une province canadienne, de tout État des États-Unis, duRoyaume-Uni ou de tout pays qui est membre de l’Union européenne, afin qu’elle prenne en charge, en qualité de codébiteur (un « codébiteur »), solidairement avec la Société, toutes les obligations de la Société aux termes de l’acte de fiducie (dans la mesure où il s’applique à la Société) et des titres, pour autant que les conditions énoncées dans l’acte de fiducie soient respectées. Les obligations du codébiteur à l’égard des titres seront de rang égal à toutes les autres obligations non subordonnées et non garanties du codébiteur.

L’acte de fiducie permet, compte tenu de certaines exceptions qui y sont mentionnées, la modification de l’acte de fiducie et la modification des droits et des obligations de la Société et des droits des porteurs de titres de la série visée par la modification aux termes de l’acte de fiducie en tout temps par la Société et le fiduciaire, avec le consentement de porteurs représentant au moins

- 32 -

la majorité du capital global de tous les titres en circulation visés par la modification en question. L’acte de fiducie contient également des clauses permettant aux porteurs de certains pourcentages du capital global des titres alors en circulation, pour le compte de la totalité des porteurs des titres qui sont visés par la modification, de renoncer au respect par la Société de certaines clauses de l’acte de fiducie et à certains défauts passés, aux termes decelui-ci, ainsi qu’à leurs conséquences. Cette renonciation ou ce consentement donné par le porteur du présent titre, ou pour son compte, sera définitif et obligatoire pour ce porteur et pour tous les porteurs subséquents de ce titre ou d’un titre émis à l’inscription du transfert de ce titre, en échange decelui-ci ou à la place decelui-ci, que cette renonciation ou ce consentement soit ou non noté sur le présent titre.

La Société peut, à l’occasion, sans avis aux porteurs et sans obtenir l’approbation deceux-ci, créer et émettre des titres supplémentaires qui auront un rang égal aux titres à tous égards (ou à tous égards, à l’exception du versement de l’intérêt accumulé avant la date de l’émission des titres ou à l’exception du premier versement d’intérêt suivant la date de l’émission des titres), afin que ces titres supplémentaires puissent être regroupés pour former une seule série avec les titres et être assortis des mêmes modalités que les titres, en ce qui a trait au statut, au rachat ou à d’autres égards.

Aucun renvoi à l’acte de fiducie contenu aux présentes et aucune clause du présent titre ou de l’acte de fiducie ne modifiera ou ne portera atteinte à l’obligation de la Société, qui est absolue et inconditionnelle, de rembourser le capital du présent titre (et de verser la prime y afférente, s’il y a lieu) et de verser l’intérêt surcelui-ci aux moments, au lieu, aux taux et dans la monnaie ou la devise prévus aux présentes.

Comme il est prévu dans l’acte de fiducie et sous réserve de certaines restrictions décrites danscelui-ci, le transfert du présent titre peut être inscrit dans le registre de titres de la Société, à la remise du présent titre aux fins d’inscription du transfert au bureau ou à l’agence de la Société maintenu ou que la Société fait maintenir à cette fin dans la province d’Ontario ou dans un registre central maintenu par le fiduciaire au bureau du fiduciaire de la Société à Toronto (Ontario), titre devant être dûment endossé, ou accompagné d’un document écrit de transfert qui satisfait aux exigences de la Société et de l’agent chargé de la tenue du registre de titres et qui est dûment signé, par le porteur ou par son fondé de pouvoir dûment autorisé par écrit; par la suite, un ou plusieurs nouveaux titres, en coupures autorisées et pour le même capital global, seront émis aux cessionnaires désignés.

Les titres pourront être émis uniquement sous forme de titres nominatifs, sans coupons, et en coupures de 1 000 $ CA et de multiples entiers de 1 000 $ CA. Comme il est prévu dans l’acte de fiducie et sous réserve de certaines restrictions décrites danscelui-ci, les titres peuvent être échangés pour un capital global équivalent de titres d’une coupure autorisée différente, comme demandé par le porteur qui remet les titres.

Aucuns frais de service ne seront exigés pour l’inscription d’un transfert ou d’un échange de titres, mais la Société peut exiger le paiement d’une somme suffisante pour couvrir tout impôt ou autre charge gouvernementale payable à cet égard, exception faite de certains échanges, comme le précise l’acte de fiducie.

Avant la présentation en bonne et due forme du présent titre aux fins d’inscription d’un transfert, la Société, le fiduciaire et un mandataire de la Société ou du fiduciaire peuvent considérer la

- 33 -

personne au nom de laquelle le présent titre est inscrit comme le propriétaire decelui-ci à toutes fins, que le présent titre soit ou non en souffrance, et ni la Société, ni le fiduciaire, ni un mandataire ne sera concerné par un avis à l’effet contraire.

Si, à un moment donné, (i) le dépositaire avise la Société qu’il ne souhaite plus être dépositaire, qu’il n’est plus capable d’agir en cette qualité ou qu’il n’est plus qualifié pour le faire et qu’un dépositaire remplaçant n’est pas nommé par la Société dans les 90 jours suivant le moment où la Société reçoit cet avis ou prend connaissance de cette situation, selon le cas, ou (ii) la Société détermine que les titres ne seront plus représentés par un titre global ou plusieurs titres globaux, alors la Société signera et le fiduciaire authentifiera et remettra les titres sous forme nominative définitive, dans des coupures autorisées, et pour un capital global égal au capital du présent titre donné en échange. Ces titres sous forme nominative définitive seront inscrits aux noms et seront émis dans les coupures autorisées que le dépositaire aura demandés au fiduciaire, aux termes de directives provenant de ses participants directs ou indirects ou autrement. Le fiduciaire remettra ces titres aux personnes aux noms desquelles ces titres sont inscrits.

Tout montant que la Société dépose auprès du fiduciaire ou qui est détenu en fiducie par la Société pour le remboursement du capital (ou le paiement d’une prime, le cas échéant) ou le paiement de tout intérêt sur les titres, et qui demeure non réclamé pendant une période de deux ans suivant la date à laquelle le capital, la prime, le cas échéant, ou l’intérêt sont dus et exigibles, sera remboursé à la Société si elle en fait la demande, sous réserve des dispositions impératives de toute loi applicable en matière de biens non réclamés. Après cette période, à moins que les dispositions impératives d’une loi applicable en matière de biens non réclamés ne l’exigent, le porteur pourra exiger tout paiement qu’il a le droit de recevoir uniquement auprès de la Société.

L’obligation de la Société de rembourser le capital (ou de payer la prime, s’il y a lieu) et de payer l’intérêt sur les titres s’éteindra si les titres ne sont pas présentés pour remboursement dans un délai de dix ans et qu’une demande d’intérêt n’est pas déposée dans les cinq ans de la date à laquelle le capital, la prime, le cas échéant, ou l’intérêt, s’il y a lieu, deviennent dus et exigibles.

L’acte de fiducie et le présent titre sont régis et interprétés conformément aux lois de l’État de New York.

Les termes utilisés dans le présent titre qui sont définis dans l’acte de fiducie ont le sens qui leur est attribué dans l’acte de fiducie.
