2.4.4

It is understood and agreed that if at any time after the date hereof the Lender’s cost of borrowing is increased, the Lender will be entitled, after consultation with the Borrowers, to increase the Applicable Margin that is applicable to all or any Types of Loans or Borrowings to reflect the Lender’s increased cost of making such Loans or Borrowings available to the Borrowers.

- 23 -

adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by Law or so result in a receipt by the Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows:

(a)

first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to the Lender under this Section 2.4; and

(b)

thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

2.5.2

The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.5.1 shall be prima facie evidence (absent manifest error) of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of the Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans and all other amounts payable in connection therewith, including interest and fees, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.7

Mandatory Repayments of Excess Drawn Amounts

If at any time the Lender determines that the Dollar Amount outstanding under the Credit Facility exceeds the Available Amount, then upon written notice from the Lender to such effect, the Borrowers will, within 24 hours, make a prepayment of the Credit Facility in an amount equal to such excess.

2.8

A certificate of the Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that the Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.9 will be delivered to the Borrowers and will, absent manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence

- 25 -

thereof. The Borrowers will pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

2.10

Alternate Rate of Interest

IfSubject to Section 2.12, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a ~~CDOR~~CORRA Borrowing or SOFR Borrowing:

the Lender determines that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining ~~CDOR~~CORRA or SOFR for such Interest Period; or

(b)

the Lender determines that ~~CDOR~~CORRA or SOFR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining ~~CDOR~~CORRA Loans or SOFR Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Lender notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Borrowing Request that requests the continuation of any Borrowing as an affected ~~CDOR~~CORRA Borrowing or a SOFR Borrowing (as applicable) shall be deemed to request conversion to a Canadian Prime Borrowing or U.S. Base Rate Borrowing (as applicable), and (ii) any Borrowing Request that requests an affected ~~CDOR~~CORRA Borrowing or SOFR Borrowing (as applicable) shall be made as a Canadian Prime Borrowing or U.S. Base Rate Borrowing (as applicable).

The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, amounts payable under any of Sections 2.9 or ~~2.13~~2.12.1 or otherwise) prior to 12:00 p.m., Toronto time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim except for any deductions or withholdings for any present or future Taxes or similar charges that a Borrower is required to make pursuant to Applicable Law. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Lender, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any other Financing Document, it becomes necessary to convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any other Financing Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Lender is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency in accordance with its normal practice. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Lender of the amount due, the Borrowers will, on the date of receipt by the Lender, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by the Lender on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by the Lender is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other Financing Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which the Lender is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the Borrowers shall indemnify and save the Lender harmless from and against all loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Lender from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any other Financing Document or under any judgment or order.

9.5

The Lenders agree that, unless they agree otherwise as between themselves with respect to any Loans or any of their obligations hereunder, the following provisions shall apply to govern their respective rights and obligations as between each other:

third, to pay all principal owing to the Lenders, on a pro rata basis based on the respective amounts of principal owing to them; and

(iv)

fourth, to pay any other Obligations owing to the Lenders, on a pro rata basis based on their share of such Obligations; and

(d)

all decisions will be made by the Lenders unanimously.

9.6

Survival

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein will be considered to have been relied upon by the Lender and will survive the execution and delivery of

- 50 -

this Agreement and the making of any Loans, and all such covenants and agreements will continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Credit Facility has not expired or been terminated other than these amounts claimed or capable of being claimed under sections of this Agreement which by the terms of this Agreement, survive termination of this Agreement.

9.7

Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which will constitute an original, but all of which when taken together will constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Lender, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

The rights of the Lender under this section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set off) which the Lender may have.

4. Depositee may prepay the Principal Amount of any Deposit in full or in part at any time together with all interest accrued on such prepaid amount.

8. No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver (a “Modification”) of this Note or any provision thereof, nor consent to any departure by Depositee therefrom, will in any event be effective unless the same will be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent will be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly agreed

- 6 -

to by Depositor in writing, no Modification will entitle Depositee to any other or future Modification, whether in the same, similar or other circumstances. Depositor does not hereby agree to, nor does Depositor hereby commit itself to, enter into any Modification.
