(d) any (A) actual untruth, inaccuracy or breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Corporation existing at the date hereof, (B) actual material untruth, material inaccuracy or material breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Corporation existing at the Closing Time (except where already qualified by materiality, in which case it shall be an actual untruth, inaccuracy or breach after giving effect to such qualification) other than the representation and warranty of the Corporation given with respect to the Business under Section 8.1(ww), or (C) any breach by the Corporation of its covenants or obligations to be complied with under this Agreement or in the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

12.2 The Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Corporation, each person, if any, who controls the Corporation within the meaning of section 15 of the 1933 Act, as amended, or section 20 of the 1934 Act and the successors and assigns of the foregoing persons, and each of their respective officers, employees, agents and Affiliates to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Corporation to the Investor, but only (i) with reference to information relating to the Investor provided to the Corporation in writing by or on behalf of the Investor specifically for inclusion in the Public Record or (ii) arising directly or indirectly from, or in consequence of, any breach by the Investor of its (A) representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or (B) covenants or obligations to be complied with under this Agreement.

12.3 If any claim contemplated by Section 12.1 or Section 12.2 shall be asserted against any of the persons in respect of which indemnification is or might reasonably be considered to be provided for in Section 12.1 or Section 12.2, such person (the Indemnified Person) shall notify the person against whom such indemnification is sought (the Indemnifying Party) (provided that failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party of the nature of such claim in a timely fashion shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of liability hereunder only if and to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such claim) as soon as possible of the nature of such claim and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled (but not required) to assume the defence of any suit brought to enforce such claim, provided, however, that the defence shall be through legal counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and acceptable to the Indemnified Person, acting reasonably, and that no settlement may be made by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of the other, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain separate counsel in any proceeding relating to a claim contemplated by Section 12.1 but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Person, unless:

(a) the Indemnified Person has been advised by counsel that there may be a reasonable legal defense available to the Indemnified Person which is different from or additional to a defense available to an Indemnifying Party and that representation of the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests between them (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such proceedings on the Indemnified Person’s behalf);

25

(b) the Indemnifying Party shall not have taken the defense of such proceedings and employed counsel within ten (10) days after notice has been given to the Indemnifying Party of commencement of such proceedings or, having employed such counsel, have diligently pursued such defense; or

(c) the employment of such counsel has been authorized by the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such proceedings;

and, in any such event, the reasonable fees and expenses of such Indemnified Person’s counsel (on a solicitor and his client basis) shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Indemnified Persons of or related to the Investor.

12.4 If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of any suit brought to enforce a claim hereunder, the Indemnified Person shall provide the Indemnifying Party with copies of all documents and information in its possession pertaining to the claim, take all reasonable actions necessary to preserve its rights to object to or defend against the claim, consult and reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in determining whether the claim and any legal proceeding resulting therefrom should be resisted, compromised or settled and reasonably cooperate and assist in any negotiations to compromise or settle, or in any defense of, a claim undertaken by the Indemnifying Party.

12.5 If the indemnification provided for in this Article 12 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Person for any reason not solely attributable to the Indemnified Person with respect to any liabilities, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, demands, losses (other than losses of profit or other consequential damages), costs (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), damages and expenses referred to in this Article 12, then the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person shall contribute to the amount paid or payable as a result of a claim contemplated by Section 12.1 or Section 12.2 above in such proportions as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and of the Indemnified Person, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such respective parties, in connection with the statement or omissions that resulted in such liabilities, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, demands, losses, costs, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

12.6 The Corporation hereby waives its right to recover contribution from the Investor with respect to any liability of the Indemnifying Party by reason of or arising out of any misrepresentation in any document forming part of the Public Record provided, however, that such waiver shall not apply in respect of liability caused or incurred by reason of any misrepresentation which is based upon information relating solely to the Investor contained in such documents and furnished to the Corporation by or on behalf of the Investor in writing expressly for inclusion in any document forming part of the Public Record.

26

Redacted information with respect to confidential information..

12.7 For greater certainty, the Indemnifying Party will not have any obligation to contribute pursuant to this Article 12 in respect of any claim except to the extent the indemnity given by it in this Article 12 of this Agreement would have been applicable to that claim in accordance with its terms, had that indemnity been found to be enforceable and available to the Indemnified Person.

12.8 The Corporation hereby acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to this Article 12, the Investor is contracting on its own behalf and as agent for the other Indemnified Persons referred to in this Article 12. In this regard, the Investor shall act as trustee or agent for such Indemnified Persons of the covenants of the Corporation under this Article 12 with respect to such Indemnified Persons and accepts these trusts or agencies and shall hold and enforce those covenants on behalf of such Indemnified Persons.

12.9 Subject to applicable laws and the rules and regulations of the TSX, any indemnity payable by the Corporation to the Investor pursuant to this Article 12 shall be deemed to be a decrease to the Subscription Amount paid to the Corporation. Any indemnity payable by the Investor to the Corporation pursuant to Article 12 shall be deemed to be an increase to the Subscription Amount paid to the Corporation.

12.10 This Article 12 shall be terminated and cease to have any effect upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the (i) reimbursement to the Investor of the full purchase price of the Subscribed Receipts as well as interest actually earned thereon calculated as of the Closing Date up to the Termination Date, and the fulfilment by the Corporation of all other obligations to be fulfilled and satisfied by it up to the Termination Date except to the extent that the same have been waived by the Subscription Receipt Agent under the Subscription Receipt Agreement, and (ii) payment of all amounts due to be paid by the Corporation to the Investor in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, including the Investor Expenses XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX.
