Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The information contained in Item 4 under “The Recapitalization Transactions” is incorporated by reference herein, as applicable.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

The Reporting Persons acquired the Limited Voting Shares reported herein for investment purposes, in connection with the Issuer’s restructuring plan (the “Plan”), designed by the Issuer to realign its capital structure and delist and deregister the Issuer’s publicly traded equity in the United States. The Reporting Persons facilitated the Plan through their entry into a support agreement in favor of the Plan, and through their investment in a private placement from the Issuer pursuant to a subscription agreement and an investor rights agreement with the Issuer and certain other parties (each as further discussed in this Item 4 and in Item 6).

The Recapitalization Transactions

The Plan was carried out through a series of recapitalization transactions (the “Recapitalization Transactions”) involving the Reporting Persons. The Recapitalization Transactions were consummated on September 6, 2018, following the satisfaction of various conditions precedent, including, among others, the requisite approval of the

Issuer’s shareholders and debtholders at meetings held on June 19, 2018 (the “Meetings”) and the grant of a final order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) approving the Plan on June 26, 2018. At the Meetings, GSO Capital Partners LP, on behalf of the GSO Funds and certain other affiliated funds, voted all of their secured debt in the Issuer in favor of the Plan, in accordance with a support agreement, dated May 1, 2018 (the “Support Agreement”). The Issuer committed under the Support Agreement to take steps to delist and deregister its common shares, no par value (“Common Shares”) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Support Agreement terminated on September 6, 2018, concurrent with the Recapitalization Transactions. Pursuant to the Recapitalization Transactions:

(i)	certain secured debtholders of the Issuer received in exchange for forgiveness of such debt a lump sum of cash, cash in an amount equal to any outstanding accrued and unpaid interest, and new secured debt comprising term loans and/or notes issued;

(ii)	certain unsecured debtholders of the Issuer received in exchange for forgiveness of such debt Limited Voting Shares; and

(iii)

the Issuer amended its certificate and articles of incorporation (the “Amended Articles”) to consolidate every 300 issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Issuer, into one Common Share and tore-designate each Common Share as a Limited Voting Share, while cancelling all other equity interests in the Issuer, including all options, warrants, rights or similar instruments, for no consideration.

As part of the Recapitalization Transactions, on September 6, 2018, the Company also issued Limited Voting Shares in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to the GSO Funds and certain other debtholders of the Issuer, pursuant to a subscription agreement, dated May 1, 2018 (the “Subscription Agreement”), between the Issuer, GSO Capital Partners LP, on behalf of the GSO Funds (collectively with GSO Capital Partners LP, the “GSO Parties”), and certain other parties thereto. In the Private Placement, in exchange for aggregate consideration of $238,573,065, or approximately $13.69 per Limited Voting Share, the GSO Funds received Limited Voting Shares in the following amounts: GSO Capital Solutions Fund II (Luxembourg) S.a.r.l. received 9,616,657 Limited Voting Shares; GSO Credit Alpha Trading (Cayman) LP received 3,946,397 Limited Voting Shares; GSO Churchill Partners LP received 1,360,347 Limited Voting Shares; GSOCredit-A Partners LP received 1,031,986 Limited Voting Shares; GSO Palmetto Opportunistic Investment Partners LP received 1,026,907 Limited Voting Shares; and GSO Harrington Credit Alpha Associates L.L.C. received 444,516 Limited Voting Shares. The GSO Funds were also issued 1,000 Class A special shares (the “Class A Shares”) for $1 per share on a pro rata basis, based on their respective Limited Voting Shares purchased in the Private Placement. The GSO Funds paid for the Limited Voting Shares and Class A Shares purchased in the Private Placement using capital calls from various investors.

Changes in the Board of the Issuer and Actions Which May Impede Acquisition of Control of the Issuer

The GSO Parties possess certain governance rights and obligations as shareholders of the Issuer under the Issuer’s Amended Articles and an investor rights agreement, dated September 6, 2018 (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), between the Issuer, GSO Capital Partners LP, on behalf of the GSO Funds, Solus Alternative Asset Management, LP, on behalf of certain Solus funds listed on Exhibit A hereto (the “Solus Funds,” and collectively with Solus Alternative Asset Management, LP, the “Solus Parties”), and the other shareholders party thereto listed on Exhibit A hereto (the “Additional IRA Parties”). In connection with such rights and obligations, the GSO Parties have certain plans relating to changes in the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Issuer and actions that may impede acquisition of control of the Issuer. For more information, see “Amended Articles and Investor Rights Agreement” under Item 6, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Other Plans or Proposals

The information in Item 6 regarding the Subscription Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement is incorporated by reference herein, as applicable.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on an ongoing basis and, in the course of their review, may take actions (including through their affiliates) with respect to their investment or the Issuer, including communicating with the Board, members of management and/or other security-holders of the Issuer or other third parties from time to time, taking steps to implement a course of action, including, without limitation, engaging

advisors, including legal, financial, regulatory, technical and/or industry advisors, to assist in any review, and evaluating strategic alternatives as they may become available. Such discussions and other actions may relate to, subject to the terms of the Subscription Agreement, the Amended Articles and the Investor Rights Agreement, various alternative courses of action, including, without limitation, those related to an extraordinary corporate transaction (including, but not limited to a merger, reorganization or liquidation) involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; business combinations involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; material asset purchases; the formation of joint ventures with the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or the entry into other material projects; changes in the present business, operations, strategy, future plans or prospects of the Issuer, financial or governance matters; changes to the Board (including Board composition) or management of the Issuer; acting as a participant in financings of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, dividend policy, business or corporate structure or governance documents of the Issuer; or any action similar to those enumerated above.

Such discussions and actions may be preliminary and exploratory in nature, and not rise to the level of a plan or proposal. Subject to the terms of the Subscription Agreement, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may seek to acquire securities of the Issuer, including Limited Voting Shares and/or other equity, debt, notes or other financial instruments related to the Issuer or the Limited Voting Shares (which may include rights or securities exercisable or convertible into securities of the Issuer), and/or sell or otherwise dispose of some or all of such Issuer securities or financial instruments (which may include distributing some or all of such securities to such Reporting Person’s respective partners or beneficiaries, as applicable) from time to time, in each case, in open market or private transactions, block sales or otherwise. Any transaction that any of the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may pursue, subject to the terms of the Subscription Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement, may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice and will depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the price and availability of the Issuer’s securities or other financial instruments, the Reporting Persons’ or such affiliates’ trading and investment strategies, subsequent developments affecting the Issuer, the Issuer’s business and the Issuer’s prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to such Reporting Persons and their affiliates, general industry and economic conditions, the securities markets in general, tax considerations and other factors deemed relevant by such Reporting Persons and such affiliates.

Except as described in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although such persons, at any time and from time to time, may review, reconsider and change their position and/or change their purpose and/or develop such plans and may seek to influence management or the Board with respect to the business and affairs of the Issuer, and may from time to time consider pursuing or proposing such matters with advisors, the Issuer or other persons.

Pursuant to the Amended Articles, the Class A Shares carry no economic rights and do not include voting rights, other than certain board appointment rights set forth under “—Board Appointment Rights” below. Any Class A Share transferred to a third party other than any of the GSO Parties and their affiliates (collectively with the GSO Parties, the “GSO Affiliates”) will automatically convert into a Class C special share, which will then be promptly redeemed for $1 per share. The Class A Shares of the GSO Funds are redeemable upon the earlier of the dates when (i) the GSO Affiliates cease to collectively beneficially own at least 12.5% of the Limited Voting Shares and (ii) the Issuer receives written demand by such holder of the Class A Shares.

Board Appointment Rights

Pursuant to the Amended Articles, due to their Class A Share ownership, for so long as the GSO Affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 24.9% of the Limited Voting Shares, the GSO Parties are entitled to appoint two directors to the Issuer’s Board. For so long as the GSO Affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 12.5% of the Limited Voting Shares but less than 24.9% of the Limited Voting Shares, the GSO Parties are entitled to appoint one director to the Issuer’s Board.

Prior to the consummation of the Recapitalization Transactions, in accordance with the Amended Articles and the Investor Rights Agreement, the GSO Parties appointed Florian Hager, a principal at GSO Capital Partners LP, as a director to the Issuer’s Board. Under the Investor Rights Agreement, the GSO Parties are entitled to appoint a second director appointee only after the earlier of (i) the date when a third independent director on the Board is appointed (following the earlier appointment of two independent directors on the Board), and (ii) September 6, 2019.

Under the Investor Rights Agreement, for the18-month period following September 6, 2018, the nomination of one of the replacement independent directors must receive the approval of a majority of a nominating committee (the “Nominating Committee”) composed of each shareholder party to the Investor Rights Agreement beneficially owning more than 7.5% of the Limited Voting Shares from time to time, and the nomination of all other replacement independent directors must receive the approval of a majority of the Nominating Committee and at least one of the GSO Parties, as a whole, or Solus Parties, as a whole. Following the initial18-month period, each replacement independent director shall be nominated by the Board.

The GSO Parties intend to exercise their director appointment rights going forward pursuant to the Amended Articles.

Board Observer Rights

Under the Investor Rights Agreement, for the15-month period following September 6, 2018, the GSO Parties have the right to appoint an observer to attend all Board and Board committee meetings in anon-voting capacity. The GSO Parties have not appointed a Board observer and may determine to do so in the future.

Board Removal Rights and Board Resignation

Pursuant to the Amended Articles, the GSO Parties may, subject to applicable law, remove any of their director appointees at any time. Where the GSO Parties lose the right to appoint a director, a director previously appointed by the GSO Parties must promptly resign from the Board and any replacement director will be considered an independent director.

Exit Event

Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, subject to the prior consent of the GSO Parties and the Solus Parties (when the GSO Affiliates beneficially own at least 12.5% of the Limited Voting Shares and the Solus Affiliates beneficially own at least 12.5% of the Limited Voting Shares), the shareholders party to the Investor Rights Agreement collectively beneficially owning at least 33¹⁄₃% of the Limited Voting Shares may request that the Issuer’s Board form a committee (the “Exit Event Committee”) to explore the following exit events (each, an “Exit Event”):

(i) a sale of a majority of the Limited Voting Shares or a merger, amalgamation, arrangement or other business combination, in each case resulting in a change of control of the Issuer; or

(ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its subsidiaries.

The Exit Event Committee, to the extent formed, will be comprised of the directors appointed by the GSO Parties and the Solus Parties (provided that each of the GSO Affiliates and the Solus Affiliates collectively beneficially owns at least 12.5% of the Limited Voting Shares) and two of the independent directors on the Issuer’s Board. Pursuant to the Amended Articles, an Exit Event may occur without any further action of the shareholders of the Issuer if, among other things:

(i) such Exit Event has been approved by a majority of the Board, including at least one independent director; and

(ii) the holders of at least a majority of the Limited Voting Shares have consented in writing or have voted in favor of such Exit Event at a shareholder meeting.

Veto Rights

Subject to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, (i) the GSO Parties and the Solus Parties may jointly veto certain transactions, provided that the GSO Affiliates and Solus Affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 30% of the Limited Voting Shares, and (ii) the GSO Parties may unilaterally veto certain transactions, provided that the GSO Affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 30% of the Limited Voting Shares and the Solus Affiliates collectively beneficially own less than 12.5% of the Limited Voting Shares (provided that if another party to the Investor Rights Agreement beneficially owns at least 12.5% of the Limited Voting Shares, the veto right can only be exercised jointly with such party).

The veto rights relate to (i) the incurrence of debt by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries in excess of $100 million (other than under the Issuer’s $250 million revolving facility), (ii) the settlement or appeal of any material claim against the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries and (iii) acquisitions, divestitures or mergers involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries in excess of $100 million (other than an Exit Event). The GSO Parties may also veto any transaction that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a material tax liability for them.

Voting Agreement

Under the Investor Rights Agreement, the GSO Parties, the Additional IRA Parties and any future parties to the Investor Rights Agreement will be required to vote in favor of the election of any second director appointed by the Solus Parties, which the Solus Parties will be entitled to appoint if the Solus Parties and their affiliates (collectively with the Solus Parties, the “Solus Affiliates”) collectively beneficially own at least 24.9% of the Limited Voting Shares. The Solus Parties have already appointed a first director pursuant to the Class B special shares owned by the Solus Funds, under the Amended Articles.

As such, to the extent that the Solus Affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 24.9% of the Limited Voting Shares, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed a member of a Section 13(d) group with the Solus Funds, the Additional IRA Parties and any future parties to the Investor Rights Agreement.

Other Governance Rights

The Investor Rights Agreement provides the shareholders party to it, including the GSO Parties, with various additional rights, including, among others, (i) information rights, (ii) customary preemptive rights, subject to customary exceptions, (iii) the Issuer’s agreement not to delist from the Toronto Stock Exchange prior to September 6, 2020 unless at least 60% of the holders of the Limited Voting Shares vote in favor, (iv) certain restrictions on related party transactions and (v) customarytag-along rights on sales of 25% or more of the Issuer’s shares to an unaffiliated third party (subject to certain exceptions).

Registration Rights

Shareholders party to the Investor Rights Agreement collectively holding at least 7.5% of the Limited Voting Shares are entitled to customary demand registration rights in respect of a specified number of publicly registered, marketed, underwritten offerings in Canada. Any shareholder to the Investor Rights Agreement beneficially owning (collectively with its affiliates) at least 5% of the Limited Voting Shares is entitled to customary piggyback registration rights, subject to customary restrictions, for offerings in Canada.
