References to the “Securities” shall include the Guarantees, unless the context otherwise requires. The Securities are to be issued under an indenture dated as of February 25, 2005, as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 1, 2012, each between Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and the Company, and the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 13, 2019 among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee (such indenture as amended and supplemented by such First Supplemental Indenture and such Sixth Supplemental Indenture, the “Base Indenture”), and to be further amended and supplemented by the Eighth Supplemental Indenture (the “Eighth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined below), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The form and terms of the Securities will be established in an Officer’s Certificate (as defined in the Indenture), pursuant to Section 301 of the Indenture. To the extent there are no additional Underwriters listed in Schedule II other than you, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean you, as Underwriters, and the terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires. Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were filed under the Exchange Act on or before the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms “amend”, “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference prior to the termination of the distribution of the Securities by the Underwriters. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 22 hereof.

1. Representations and Warranties. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, represent and warrant to, and agree with, each Underwriter as set forth below in this Section 1 that:

(a) [Reserved.]

(b) Registration Requirement Compliance. The Company and the offering of Securities meet the eligibility requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Act, the Company has filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-231553) in respect of the Securities and has caused the Trustee to prepare and file with the Commission a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 (the “Form T-1”); such registration statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, each in the form heretofore delivered or to be delivered to the Representatives and, including exhibits to such registration statement and any documents incorporated by reference in the prospectus contained therein, for delivery by them to each of the other Underwriters, became effective under the Act in such form; no other document with respect to such registration statement or documents incorporated by reference therein has heretofore been filed or transmitted for filing with the Commission; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement has been issued and, to the Company’s knowledge, no proceeding for that purpose has been initiated or threatened by the Commission; the various parts of such registration statement, including all exhibits thereto and the documents incorporated by reference in the prospectus contained in the registration statement at the time such part of the registration statement became effective and including the information, if any, deemed pursuant to Rule 430A, 430B or 430C under the Act to be part of the registration statement at the time of its effectiveness, but excluding the Form T-1, each as amended at the time such part of the registration statement became effective and including any post-effective amendment thereto, are hereinafter collectively called the “Registration Statement”; the prospectus relating to the Securities, in the form in which it has most recently been filed, or transmitted for filing, with the Commission on or prior to the Execution Time, being hereinafter called the “Basic Prospectus”; with respect to the Securities, “Final Prospectus” means the Basic Prospectus as supplemented by the first prospectus supplement relating to the offering of the Securities containing pricing information that is filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act in the form first used (or made available upon request of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Act); any reference herein to any Basic Prospectus, Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein as of the date of such Basic Prospectus, Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or Final Prospectus, as the case may be; any reference to any amendment or supplement to any Basic Prospectus, Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed as of the date of such amendment or supplement under the Exchange Act and incorporated by reference in such amendment or supplement;

(b.2) Disclosure Package. The term “Disclosure Package” shall mean (i) the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement dated June 24, 2021, (ii) the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, attached as part of Annex G hereto, and (iii) any other free writing prospectus that the parties hereto shall hereafter expressly agree in writing to treat as part of the Disclosure Package. As of 5:37 p.m. (Eastern time) on the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement (the “Applicable Time”), (i) the Disclosure Package and (ii) any electronic roadshow, when taken together as a whole with the Disclosure Package, did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein.

(b.3) Company Not Ineligible Issuer. (i) At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement relating to the Securities that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) under the Act) and (ii) as of the date of the execution and delivery of this agreement (“Agreement”) (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (ii)), the Company was not and is not an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 of the Act), without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 of the Act that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an ineligible issuer.

(b.4) Well-Known Seasoned Issuer. The Company has been since the time of initial filing of the Registration Statement and continues to be a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Act) eligible to use Form S-3 for the offering of the Securities, including not having been an “ineligible issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Act) at any such time or date.

If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Company has promptly notified or will promptly notify the Representatives and has promptly amended or supplemented or will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict. The foregoing two sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein.

(b.6) Distribution of Offering Material by the Company. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantor has distributed and will not distribute, prior to the completion of the Underwriters’ distribution of the Securities, any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities other than the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus reviewed and consented to by the Representatives or the Registration Statement.

Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at the purchase price set forth in Schedule I hereto the principal amount of the Securities set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Schedule II hereto.

3. Delivery and Payment.

(a) Delivery of and payment for the Securities shall be made on the date and at the time specified in Schedule I hereto or at such time on such later date not more than three Business Days after the foregoing date as the Representatives and the Company shall mutually agree, which date and time may be postponed by agreement between the Representatives and the Company or as provided in Section 10 hereof (such date and time of delivery and payment for the Securities being herein called the “Closing Date”). Delivery of the Securities shall be made to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters against payment by the several Underwriters through the Representatives of the purchase price thereof to or upon the order of the Company by wire transfer payable in same-day funds to an account specified by the Company. Delivery of the Securities shall be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct.

(b) As compensation for the services rendered by the Underwriters to the Company in respect of the issuance and sale of the Securities, the Company on the Closing Date will pay to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters the commission specified in Schedule I hereto.

4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer the Securities for sale to the public as set forth in the Final Prospectus. In order to comply with certain exemptions from the prospectus requirements of the Securities Act (Alberta), the Underwriters hereby agree that they shall not directly or indirectly offer to sell or resell, or sell or resell, any Securities to residents of Canada.

5. Agreements. The Company agrees with the several Underwriters that:

(a) Prior to the termination of the offering of the Securities, the Company will not file any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Basic Prospectus (including the Final Prospectus or any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) unless the Company has furnished a copy to the Representatives for their review prior to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Representatives reasonably object. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Company will prepare the Final Prospectus setting forth the principal amount of Securities covered thereby, the terms not otherwise specified in the Basic Prospectus pursuant to which the Securities are being issued, the names of the Underwriters participating in the offering and the principal amount of Securities which each severally has agreed to purchase, the names of the Underwriters acting as co-managers in connection with the offering, the price at which the Securities are to be purchased by the Underwriters from the Company, the initial public offering price, the selling concession and reallowance, if any, in a form approved by the Representatives and shall file such Final Prospectus with the Commission within the time periods specified by Rule 424(b) under the Act. The Company will promptly file all reports and other documents required to be filed by it with the Alberta Securities Commission pursuant to Alberta Securities Laws, and the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act for so long as the delivery of a prospectus is required (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Act) in connection with the offering or sale of the Securities, and during such same period will advise the Representatives, promptly after it receives notice thereof, (1) when any amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed or becomes effective or any supplement to the Basic Prospectus or any amended Final Prospectus has been filed with the Commission, (2) of the issuance by the Alberta Securities Commission or the Commission of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus relating to the Securities, (3) of the suspension of the qualification of such Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, (4) of the initiation or threatening, to the knowledge of the Company, of any proceeding for any such purpose, or (5) of any request by the Commission for the amending or supplementing of the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus or for additional information relating to the Securities; and the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or any such order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus relating to the Securities or the suspension of any such qualification and, in the event of the issuance of any such stop order or of any such order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus relating to the Securities or suspending any such qualification, to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order as soon as possible;

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) above, if, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Act), any event occurs of which the Company becomes aware and as a result of which the Final Prospectus, as then supplemented, would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Act or the Exchange Act, or the respective rules thereunder, the Company will (i) promptly notify the Representatives of such event, (ii) promptly prepare and file with the Commission an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance, and (iii) expeditiously supply any supplemented Final Prospectus to the Representatives in such quantities as they may reasonably request;

(c) As soon as practicable but not later than 18 months after the date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company will make generally available to its security holders and to the Representatives an earnings statement or statements of the Company and its subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158 under the Act;

(d) The Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, without charge, copies of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto) and to each other Underwriter a copy of the Registration Statement (without exhibits thereto) and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Act), as many copies of each Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, Final Prospectus and any supplement thereto as the Representatives may reasonably request;

(e) The Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities for sale under the laws of the states of the United States and such other jurisdictions as the Representatives, after consultation with and approval from the Company, may designate, will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities and will pay any fee of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., in connection with its review of the offering; provided that in no event shall the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor be obligated to qualify to do business or become subject to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or so subject or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject;

(f) The Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of or hedge, directly or indirectly, including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a registration statement with the Commission in respect of, any U.S. dollar debt securities which are substantially similar to the Securities issued or guaranteed by the Company (other than the Securities) or publicly announce an intention to effect any such transaction until the Business Day set forth in Schedule I hereto;

(g) The Company will use the net proceeds received by it from the sale of any Securities in the manner specified in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the caption “Use of Proceeds”;

(g.1) The Company will prepare a final term sheet containing a description of the Securities in the form set forth in Annex G hereto and will file such term sheet pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act within the time required by such rule (the “Final Term Sheet”);

(h) In connection with each offering of Securities, the Company will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the Final Prospectus prepared in connection with such offering and transmitted for filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act was received for filing by the Commission, and, in the event that such prospectus was not received for filing, it will promptly file such prospectus not then received for filing;

(i) During the period in which the Underwriters are distributing the Securities, the Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities;

(j) The Company represents that it has not made, and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Representatives, it will not make, any offer relating to the Securities that constitutes or would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that otherwise constitutes or would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Act) required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433 of the Act; provided that the prior written consent of the Representatives shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Free Writing Prospectuses identified in Annex G hereto. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Representatives is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus”. The Company agrees that (i) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and (ii) has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 of the Act applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record keeping. The Company consents to the use by any Underwriter of a free writing prospectus that (a) is not an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as defined in Rule 433, and (b) contains only (i) information describing the preliminary terms of the Securities or their offering, (ii) information permitted by Rule 134 under the Act or (iii) information that describes the final terms of the Securities or their offering and that is included in the Final Term Sheet.

6. Expenses. The Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors will pay or cause to be paid all reasonable expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including: (i) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s counsel and the Company’s accountants in connection with the registration and delivery of the Securities under the Act and all other fees or expenses in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company and amendments and supplements to any of the foregoing, and all printing costs associated therewith, (ii) all costs and expenses related to the transfer and delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters, (iii) any fees charged by the rating agencies for the rating of the Securities, (iv) the cost of the preparation, issuance and delivery of the Securities, (v) the costs and charges of any trustee, transfer agent, registrar or depositary and (vi) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section. It is understood, however, that, except as provided in this Agreement, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses, including the fees of their counsel, and transfer taxes on resales of any of the Securities by them.

7. Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriters. The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Securities shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor contained herein as of the Execution Time and the Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor made in any certificates pursuant to the provisions of this Section, to the performance by the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

(d) The Representatives shall have received from Baker Botts L.L.P., U.S. counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representatives, with respect to the issuance and sale of the Securities, the Indenture, the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus (together with any supplement thereto) and other related matters as the Representatives may reasonably require, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters;

(e) The Representatives shall have received from Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, Canadian counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representatives, with respect to the issuance and sale of the Securities, the Indenture and other related matters as the Representatives may reasonably require, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters;

the representations and warranties of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and the Company has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date;

ii.

no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or stop order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus relating to the Securities has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened by the Alberta Securities Commission or the Commission; and

iii.

since the date of the most recent financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), there has been no material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, earnings, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto);

(i) The Representatives shall have received from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company’s independent auditor, a letter or letters dated at the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, together with signed or reproduced copies of such letter or letters for each of the other Underwriters containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus;

(j) [Reserved.]

(k) Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereto) and the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), there shall not have been (i) any change or decrease specified in the letter or letters referred to in paragraph (i) of this Section 7 or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereto), the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto);

(l) Subsequent to the Execution Time, there shall not have been any decrease in the rating of any of the Company’s debt securities by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, Moody’s Investor Services or Dominion Bond Rating Service Limited and no such rating service shall have publicly announced or otherwise informed the Company that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating or outlook of the Company or any of the Company’s debt securities or preferred stock; and

8. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 7 hereof is not satisfied or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters (but excluding any termination pursuant to Section 11 hereof), the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally through the Representatives on demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

9. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Final Prospectus, any electronic roadshow or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or in all cases any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Subsidiary Guarantor, each of their directors, each of their officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set forth in (a) the last paragraph of the cover page regarding delivery of the Securities, (b) under the heading “The Offering”, the third sentence in the right column adjacent to “Lack of Public Market for the Notes”, (c) the second sentence within the risk factor “We cannot provide assurance that an active trading market will develop for the Notes” and (d) under the heading “Underwriting”, (i) the names listed in the table following the first paragraph of the text, (ii) the third paragraph of text concerning concessions, (iii) the fourth and fifth paragraphs of text concerning price stabilization, short positions and penalty bids, (iv) the third and fourth sentences in the sixth paragraph of text concerning market making by the Underwriters, and (v) the fifteenth paragraph of text concerning electronic prospectuses, in any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus, as applicable, constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or the Final Prospectus.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action, or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 9, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

10. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the non-defaulting Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Securities by one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters or other party or parties approved by the Representatives and the Company are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 10, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

11. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time, (i) trading of the Company’s common stock shall have been suspended by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or the Toronto Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Toronto Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on any of such Exchanges, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by authorities in the United States, Canada or New York State, (iii) a change or development involving a prospective change in Canadian taxation affecting the Securities or the transfer thereof or the imposition of exchange controls by the United States or Canada, or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving Canada or the United States, declaration by the United States or Canada of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis, the effect of which on financial markets in the United States or Canada is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

11.1 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand, and the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities as contemplated hereby and the process leading to such offer and sale, each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary of the Company or its affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the offer and sale of the Securities as contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the several Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and that the several Underwriters have no obligation to disclose to the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the several Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty.

11.2 Agreement of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter represents that it has not made, and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Company, it will not make, any offer relating to the Securities that constitutes or would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Act) required to be filed with the Commission or retained under Rule 433 of the Act; provided that the prior written consent of the Company shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Free Writing Prospectuses identified in Annex G hereto and in respect of the use by any Underwriter of a free writing prospectus that (a) is not an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as defined in Rule 433, and (b) contains only (i) information describing the preliminary terms of the Securities or their offering, (ii) information permitted by Rule 134 under the Act or (iii) information that describes the final terms of the Securities or their offering and that is included in the Final Term Sheet.
