Section 1.17         Judgment Currency, (a) The Corporation agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that if for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Corporation in any court it is or becomes necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of any series (the “Required Currency”) into a currency in which a judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Corporation could purchase in Montréal, Quebec, Canada the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the Business Day immediately preceding:

(i)              the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of the Province of Québec or in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date; or

(ii)             the date on which the final unappealable judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction

(the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this clause being hereinafter in this Section 1.17 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(b)           If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in clause (ii) of Section 1.17(a), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Corporation shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

(c)           The Corporation also agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that its obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of such series to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any judgment, in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the effective receipt by the payee of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action for the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which such effective receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency so expressed to be payable and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sums due under this Indenture.

(d)           The term “rate of exchange” in this Section 1.17 means the 4:30 p.m. rate of exchange for the Judgment Currency in Dollars quoted by the Bank of Canada for the day in question.

(e)           In the event of the winding-up of the Corporation at any time while any amount or damages owing under the Securities and this Indenture, or any judgment or order rendered in respect thereof, shall remain outstanding, the Corporation and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold the Holders and the Trustee harmless against any deficiency arising or resulting from any variation in rates of exchange between (1) the date as of which the equivalent of the amount in the Required Currency due or contingently due under the Securities and this Indenture (other than under this Subsection (d)) is calculated for the purposes of such winding-up and (2) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in such winding-up. For the purpose of this Subsection (d) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in the winding-up of the Corporation shall be the date fixed by the liquidator or otherwise in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable law as being the latest practicable date as at which liabilities of the Corporation may be ascertained for such winding-up prior to payment by the liquidator or otherwise in respect thereto.

Section 1.18         Agent for Process; Submission to Jurisdiction. By its execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Corporation irrevocably designates and appoints Gildan Activewear USA Inc., a Delaware corporation, as the Corporation’s authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) upon whom process may be served in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture, and/or the Securities but for that purpose only, and agrees that service of process upon said Gildan Activewear USA Inc., and written notice of such service to the Corporation in the manner provided in Section 1.06, shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Corporation in any such action, suit or proceeding in any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Corporation hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in respect of any such legal action or proceeding and waives any objection it may have to the laying of the venue of any such legal action or proceeding. Such designation shall be irrevocable until all amounts in respect of the principal of and interest due and to become due on or in respect of all the Securities issued under this Indenture have been paid by the Corporation pursuant to the terms hereof and the Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation reserves the right to appoint another Person located or with an office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, selected in its discretion, as a successor Authorized Agent, and upon acceptance of such consent to service of process by such a successor the designation of the prior Authorized Agent shall terminate. The Corporation shall give written notice to the Trustee and all Holders of the designation by them of a successor Authorized Agent. If for any reason the Authorized Agent ceases to be able to act as the Authorized Agent or to have an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, the Corporation will designate a successor authorized agent in accordance with the preceding sentence. The Corporation further agrees to take any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue the designation and appointment of said Gildan Activewear USA Inc., or of any successor Authorized Agent of the Corporation, in full force and effect so long as any of the Securities shall be outstanding.

No director, manager, member, officer, employee or incorporator of the Corporation or any Guarantor, or shareholder of the Corporation, or annuitant under a plan of which a shareholder of the Corporation is a trustee or carrier will have any liability for any Indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Corporation under any Security or the Indenture or of any Guarantor under its Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are an integral part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities and the Guarantees.

PATRIOT Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act. The Trustee acknowledges that it has received all information required pursuant to this Section 1.21 as of the date hereof.

Section 1.22         No Incorporation by Reference of Trust Indenture Act.

Each of the Corporation and the Trustee hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture, the Securities or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 1.24         Compliance with Privacy Laws. The parties acknowledge that U.S. federal and/or state laws that addresses the protection of individuals’ personal information (collectively, “Privacy Laws”) applies to obligations and activities under this Indenture.

All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical, except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided by or pursuant to the Directors’ Resolution or Officers’ Certificate referred to above or as may otherwise be set forth in any indenture supplemental hereto referred to above. All Securities of any series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series, if so provided by or pursuant to such Directors’ Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture.

The signature of any Officer on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. Typographical and other minor errors or defects in any such reproduction of such seal or any such signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Security which has been duly, manually authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. A facsimile signature upon a Security by the Corporation shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the Signature of the person whose signature it purports to be.

| -26- |

| --- |

In case any such Officer who shall have so executed any of the Securities shall cease to hold such office before the Security shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Corporation such Security nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of and shall bind the Corporation as though the Person who signed such Security had not ceased to be such Officer; and any Security may be so executed on behalf of the Corporation by such Persons as, at the actual date of execution of such Security, shall be the proper officers of the Corporation although at the date of the execution and delivery of this Indenture any such Person was not such an officer.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Corporation may deliver Securities of any series, executed by the Corporation to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Corporation Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities and the other applicable documents referred to below in this Section, including an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, and thereupon the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities pursuant to such Corporation Order or pursuant to procedures acceptable to the Trustee specified from time to time by a Corporation Order. In authenticating the Securities of any series and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in respect of the Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be provided with (but, in the case of subparagraphs (b), (c) and (d) below, only at or before the time of the first request of the Corporation to the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series) and, subject to Section 6.01, shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, unless and until such documents shall have been superseded or revoked:

(a)           a Corporation Order requesting such authentication and setting forth delivery instructions if the Securities of such series are not to be delivered to the Corporation; provided that, with respect to the Securities of any series which are subject to a Periodic Offering: (i) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series for original issue from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the aggregate principal amount established for such series, pursuant to a Corporation Order or pursuant to procedures acceptable to the Trustee specified from time to time by a Corporation Order, (ii) if so provided in or pursuant to the Directors’ Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing the Securities of such series, the maturity date, the original issue date, the interest rate and any other terms of any or all of the Securities of such series may be determined by a Corporation Order or pursuant to such procedures and (iii) if so provided in such procedures, such Corporation Order may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to electronic instructions from the Corporation or its duly authorized agent, which instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing;

(b)           any Directors’ Resolution, Officers’ Certificate and/or executed supplemental indenture referred to in Section 2.01 or 3.01 by or pursuant to which the form or forms and the terms of the Securities of such series were established;

(c)           an Officers’ Certificate either setting forth the form or forms and the terms of the Securities of such series or stating that such form or forms and terms have been established pursuant to Section 2.01 or 3.01 and comply with this Indenture, and covering such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request, including, without limitation, evidence of compliance pursuant to Section 1.02 and that no Events of Default with respect to any of the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(d)           an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee.

| -27- |

| --- |

The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities of any series under this Section if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall determine that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee shall in good faith, by any one of its Responsible Officers, determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to the Holders of the Securities then Outstanding or would affect the Trustee’s rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under the Securities of such series or this Indenture in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

If the Corporation shall establish pursuant to Section 3.01 that the Securities of any series are to be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities, then the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Corporation Order with respect to the Securities of any series, authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities that (i) shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount specified in such Corporation Order, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary therefor or its nominee, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary’s instructions and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

“Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive registered form, this Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to the nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.”

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there shall appear on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form and manually executed as hereinabove provided, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Corporation, and the Corporation shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 3.03         Denomination and Date of Securities. The Securities of each series shall be issuable in denominations established as provided in Section 3.01 or, with respect to the Securities of any series if not so established, in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. The Securities of each series shall be numbered, lettered or otherwise distinguished in such manner or in accordance with such plan as the Officers executing the same may determine with the approval of the Trustee, as evidenced by the execution and authentication thereof.

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities of each series shall bear interest, if any, from the date, and such interest shall be payable on the dates, established in or pursuant to Section 3.01.

| -28- |

| --- |

Section 3.04         Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Corporation may execute, and upon Corporation Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities for such series which are printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise produced. Temporary Securities of any series shall be issuable in any authorized denomination and substantially in the forms of the definitive Securities of such series, but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the Corporation with the concurrence of the Trustee, as evidenced by the execution and authentication thereof. Temporary Securities may contain such references to any provisions of this Indenture as may be appropriate. Every temporary Security of any series shall be executed by the Corporation and authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as the definitive Securities of such series. Without unreasonable delay, the Corporation shall execute and deliver to the Trustee for authentication definitive Securities of such series; and thereupon temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange for definitive Securities of such series without charge at each office or agency to be maintained for such purpose. Upon receipt of a Corporation Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for temporary Securities of such series so surrendered an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of such series in authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series, unless otherwise established pursuant to Section 3.01.

Section 3.05         Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Corporation shall keep, or cause to be kept, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, a register (the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Corporation will provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Security Register shall be in written form in the English language or in any other form capable of being converted into such form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times, any Security Register not maintained by the Trustee shall be open for inspection by the Trustee or delivered to the Trustee upon its request. The Trustee is hereby appointed (a) the initial “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities as herein provided and (b) the Securities Custodian with respect to the Global Securities. The Security Register shall be kept at the Corporate Trust Office. The holder of any Security shall be entitled to inspect the Security Register at any time during normal business hours of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office and to make extracts therefrom.

The Securities shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Security for registration of transfer. When a Security is presented to the Security Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Security Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements therefor are met. To permit registration of transfers, the Corporation shall execute and upon receipt of a Corporation Order, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Security Registrar’s request.

Whenever Securities of any series are so surrendered for exchange, the Corporation shall execute, and upon receipt of a Corporation Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities, in accordance with the Depositary’s customary procedures and the provisions hereof, which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. All Securities surrendered upon any exchange or transfer provided for in this Indenture shall be promptly cancelled and the Trustee, upon written request of the Corporation, shall deliver a certificate of disposition thereof to the Corporation.

| -29- |

| --- |

All Securities of any series presented for registration of transfer, exchange, redemption or payment shall (if so required by the Corporation or the Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder or other appropriate person.

The Corporation and/or the Trustee may require payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange or registration of transfer of Securities; but unless otherwise provided in the Securities to be exchanged or transferred, no service charge shall be made for any such transaction.

Neither the Corporation, the Trustee nor the Security Registrar shall be required to (i) issue, exchange or register the transfer of Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of 15 Business Days next preceding the first mailing or publication of notice of redemption of the Securities of such series to be redeemed, (ii) exchange or register the transfer of any Securities selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security to be redeemed in part or (iii) exchange or register the transfer of any Security if the Holder thereof has exercised any right to require the Corporation to purchase such Security, in whole or in part, except any portion thereof not required to be so purchased.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form, a Global Security representing all or a portion of the Securities of any series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such Global Security to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

If at any time the Depositary shall notify the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary or if at any time any such Depositary shall no longer be eligible to continue as Depositary, the Corporation shall appoint a successor Depositary. If a successor Depositary shall not be appointed by the Corporation within 90 days after the Corporation receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Corporation Order, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for such Global Securities, Securities of such series in definitive form in authorized denominations for an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Global Securities held by such Depositary.

If an Event of Default described in clause (1) or (2) of Section 5.01 shall occur and be continuing with respect to any series of the Securities, the Corporation shall execute and deliver to the Trustee, together with a Corporation Order, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt thereof, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for Global Securities evidencing the Securities of such series, Securities of such series in definitive form in authorized denominations for an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Securities.

| -30- |

| --- |

The Corporation may at any time, in its sole discretion, determine that the Securities of a particular series shall no longer be represented by Global Securities. In such event, the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of a Corporation Order, and any other applicable documents required to be delivered in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for such Global Securities, Securities of such series in definitive form in authorized denominations for an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Securities.

If so established by the Corporation pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to the Securities of a particular series represented by a Global Security, the Depositary may surrender such Global Security in exchange, in whole or in part, for Securities of such series in definitive form upon such terms as are acceptable to the Corporation and the Depositary. Thereupon, the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of a Corporation Order, shall authenticate and deliver:

(a)           to each Person specified by the Depositary, one or more new Securities of such series in authorized denominations requested by such Person for an aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, such Person’s beneficial interest in such Global Security; and

(b)           to the Depositary, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to the difference between the principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of the Securities authenticated and delivered pursuant to clause (a) above.

Upon the surrender for exchange of any Global Security for Securities in definitive form, such Global Security shall be promptly cancelled and disposed of by the Trustee, and the Trustee, upon written request of the Corporation, shall deliver a certificate of disposition to the Corporation. Securities in definitive form issued in exchange for a Global Security pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee or an agent of the Corporation or the Trustee. The Trustee or such agent shall deliver such Securities to or as directed by the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be valid obligations of the Corporation, evidencing the same indebtedness, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Security Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominees or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Security Registrar may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

| -31- |

| --- |

The Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Security Registrar shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under the Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Security Registrar nor any other agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

Section 3.06         Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities. In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Corporation Order, shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the same series of like tenor and terms, bearing a number or other distinguishing symbol not contemporaneously outstanding, in lieu of and substitution for the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Security. In each case, the applicant for a substitute Security shall furnish to the Corporation and to the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee such security and/or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless and, in each case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof and, in each case of mutilation or defacement, shall surrender the Security to the Trustee or such agent.

Upon the issuance of any substitute Security under this Section, the Corporation and/or the Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or its agent) connected therewith. In case any Security which has matured or is about to mature or has been called for redemption in full shall become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Corporation may, instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Security), if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Corporation and to the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee such security and/or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in each case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof.

| -32- |

| --- |

Every substitute Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Corporation, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of such series duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express condition that, to the extent permitted by law, the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

Section 3.07         Payment; Interest Rights Preserved. (a) Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more predecessor securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest payment.

(b)           Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (“Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Corporation, at its election in each case, as provided in paragraph (i) or (ii) below:

(i)              The Corporation may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities or whose entitlements to interest are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Corporation shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Corporation shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this paragraph provided. Thereupon, the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Corporation of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Corporation, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or delivered electronically, to each Holder of the Securities or each Person so entitled to interest at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so delivered, such Defaulted Interest shall be Paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities or whose entitlements to interest are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date.

| -33- |

| --- |

(ii)              The Corporation may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of a securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, after notice given by the Corporation to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this paragraph.

Section 3.08         Persons Deemed Owners. The Corporation, the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name each Security is registered in the Security Register as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest, if any, on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever (other than the payment of Additional Amounts), whether or not such payment in respect of such Security shall be overdue, and none of the Corporation, the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any such Person or Holder, or upon the order of any such Person or Holder, shall be valid and, to the extent of the amounts so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the indebtedness on any such Security.

Section 3.09         Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment at the option of the Holder, registration of transfer or exchange, if surrendered to the Corporation or any agent of the Corporation or any agent of the Trustee, shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it; and no Securities shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of cancelled Securities, if any, in accordance with its customary procedures. If the Corporation or its agent shall acquire any of the Securities, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Corporation may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Corporation may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures and, upon written request of the Corporation, certification of their disposal delivered to the Corporation unless by Corporation Order the Corporation shall direct that cancelled Securities be returned to it.

Section 3.10         Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise established pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Solely for the purposes of disclosure required under the Interest Act (Canada), and without affecting the amount of interest payable to any holder of a Security or the calculation of interest on any Security, whenever interest to be paid on the Securities is calculated on the basis of a 360-day year or on the basis of any other period which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation (a “deemed year”), (i) such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation in connection with the Securities, and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated herein and in the Securities are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the interest rate. The Corporation’s actions in determining the interest rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 5.02         Acceleration of Maturity. If an Event of Default described in clause (1) or (2) of Section 5.01 shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Securities of any series, then, and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all of the Securities of such series shall have already become due and payable, the Trustee shall upon request in writing made by the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding, by notice in writing to the Corporation, declare the entire principal of (and premium, if any, on) all the Securities of such series then Outstanding and the interest accrued thereon and all other money owing under the provisions of this Indenture in respect of such Securities to be due and payable to the Trustee on demand and upon any such demand the same shall forthwith become immediately due and payable to the Trustee. If an Event of Default described in clause (3), (4), (5) or (6) of Section 5.01 shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Securities of one or more series, then, and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all of the Securities of such affected series shall have already become due and payable, the Trustee shall upon request in writing made by the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all such affected series then Outstanding (voting as one class), by notice in writing to the Corporation, declare the entire principal of (and premium, if any, on) all the Securities of all such affected series then Outstanding and the interest accrued thereon and all other money owing under the provisions of the Indenture in respect of such Securities to be due and payable to the Trustee on demand, and upon any such demand the same shall forthwith become immediately due and payable.

The Corporation shall, upon demand of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities, for the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest accrued to the date of such payment on all such Securities of such series and all other money owing under the provisions of the Indenture in respect of such Securities, together with interest from the date of such demand to the date of such payment upon overdue principal and premium and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest and on such other money at the same rate as the rate of interest specified in the Securities of such series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, except as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Until such demand shall be made by the Trustee, the Corporation shall pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of such series to the Holders in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, whether or not payment of any amount in respect of such Securities of such series shall be overdue.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing the Trustee shall, within 30 days after it becomes aware of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Holders of the Securities of all series then Outstanding affected thereby in the manner provided in Section 1.07; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the case of Events of Default described in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 5.01, the Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if the Trustee in good faith shall have decided that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders of the Securities of all series then Outstanding affected thereby and shall have so advised the Corporation in writing. Where a notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default has been given to the Holders of such Securities pursuant to the preceding sentence and the Event of Default is thereafter cured, the Trustee shall give notice that the Event of Default is no longer continuing to the Holders of such Securities within 30 days after it becomes aware that the Event of Default has been cured.

Section 5.03         Waiver of Acceleration Upon Default.

it being understood and intended that no one or more of Holders of Securities of any series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder of the Securities, or to obtain or to seek to obtain preference or priority over any other such Holder or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all Holders of Securities of the affected series.

Section 5.09         Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture or any provision of any Security of any series, the Holder of a Security of any series shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in such Security or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 5.10         Restoration of Rights and Remedies. In case the Trustee or any Holder shall have proceeded to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then, and in every such case, the Corporation, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder; and all rights, remedies and powers of the Corporation, the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken.

Section 5.11         Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last sentence of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.12         Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case maybe, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture.

Section 5.13         Control by Holders. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series at the time Outstanding (determined as provided in Section 5.02 and voting as one class) shall have the right exercisable by Act of such Holders to sanction or direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such affected series; provided that:

(1)           such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;

(2)           the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction; and

(3)           the Trustee shall have the right to decide to follow such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that such direction be prejudicial to the Holders not joining in such direction (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such direction is unduly prejudicial to other Holders) or would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 5.14         Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time Outstanding with respect to which a default or breach or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (determined as provided in Section 5.02 and voting as one class) shall have the right exercisable by Act of such Holders to waive any past default or breach or Event of Default and its consequences, except a default

(1)           in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of any such series, or

(2)           in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article VIII cannot be modified or amended without the consent of all Holders of all Outstanding Securities of any such series affected.

Upon any such waiver, such default or breach shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or breach or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. In the case of any such waiver, the Corporation, the Guarantors or any other obligor under the Securities, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Securities, respectively.

If a Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another Default (the “Initial Default”) occurs, then, at the time such Initial Default is cured, such Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another Default that resulted solely because of that Initial Default will also be cured without any further action. Any time period in this Indenture to cure any actual or alleged Default or Event of Default may be extended or stayed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 5.15         Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and documented out-of-pocket expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant. This Indenture shall not be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or make such assessment in any suit instituted by the Trustee.

Section 5.16         Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. The Corporation covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Corporation (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

then, in any such case (a) the Corporation by a Directors’ Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any or all series, as appropriate, or (b) subject to Section 5.15, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of an affected series for at least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all other Holders similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

(e)           If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Corporation, by a Directors’ Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of such series and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding delivered to the Corporation and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Corporation with respect to the Securities of such series. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Corporation or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bonafide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all other Holders similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(b)           In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Corporation, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute, acknowledge and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto in which each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which shall (i) contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of each series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Trustee shall not be retiring with respect to the Securities of all series, contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of the series as to which the retiring Trustee shall not be retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee and (iii) add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to the extent necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture (except as specifically provided for therein) shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of each series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, and upon payment of its outstanding fees and expenses, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to each successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of each series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

(c)           Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Corporation shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all rights, powers and trusts referred to in Section 6.11(a) or (b), as the case may be.

(d)           No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

Section 6.12         Merger, Consolidation, Amalgamation or Succession to Trustee. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or with which it may be consolidated or amalgamated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or amalgamation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as though such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or amalgamated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion, consolidation or amalgamation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor to such Authenticating Agent with respect to all series of the Securities for which it served as Authenticating Agent; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or such Authenticating Agent.

Any Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Corporation. The Trustee may at any time terminate the appointment of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Corporation. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Corporation and shall, at the expense of the Corporation, provide notice of such appointment to all Holders of the Securities affected thereby in the manner provided in Section 6.10 with respect to the appointment of a successor Trustee. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as though originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

Section 6.15         Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Corporation. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company or a Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company or such Guarantor (or any such other obligor).

Section 9.02         Certificates of Compliance. The Corporation shall deliver to the Trustee annually within 120 days (or such longer period as the Trustee in its discretion may consent to) after the end of each fiscal year of the Corporation), an Officers’ Certificate stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signer thereof the Corporation is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder), and if the Corporation shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which he may have knowledge.

Section 9.03         Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Corporation will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where Securities of any series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Corporation or any Guarantor in respect of the Securities of that series, the Guarantees and this Indenture may be served. The Corporation will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Corporation shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Corporation hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

The Corporation may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York) where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Corporation of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, for such purposes. The Corporation will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

The Corporation hereby initially designates the Trustee as Paying Agent and Security Registrar, and the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Corporation for each of the aforesaid purposes.

Section 9.04         Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the Corporation shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium and interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its actions or failure so to act.

The Corporation will cause each Paying Agent for the Securities of any series other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent shall (i) hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities of such series and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Corporation in making any such payment and (ii) during the continuance of any default by the Corporation (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment in respect of the Securities of that series, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Securities of that series.

The Corporation may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Corporation Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Corporation or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Corporation or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent (other than the Corporation) to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Corporation, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Corporation on Corporation Request, or (if then held by the Corporation) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Corporation for payment of such principal, premium or interest on such Security and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Corporation as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Corporation, before the Trustee or such Paying Agent is required to make any such repayment, may cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in Canada, if required, and, if required, The City of New York and, if required, the United Kingdom and, if required, Luxembourg, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall be not less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Corporation.

Section 9.05         Carry on Business. Subject to the rights of the Corporation contained herein, including Article VII, the Corporation shall at all times: (i) maintain its legal existence; and (ii) conduct its business in a proper and efficient manner in accordance with normal industry standards and in compliance, in all material respects, with all laws and all other regulatory authorities to the extent applicable to the activities of the Corporation, except, in each case, where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a change or changes in or effect(s) on, either individually or in the aggregate, the business, assets, liabilities, financial position or operating results of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which materially adversely affect(s) or would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the ability of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole to perform their obligations under this Indenture and the Securities in accordance with the respective terms thereof or the validity or enforceability of any of the Indenture or the Securities.

Section 9.06         Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. The Corporation shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Corporation or upon the income, profits or assets of the Corporation, and (ii) all lawful claims against the Corporation for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the assets of the Corporation that is not a Permitted Lien; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

Section 9.07         Additional Amounts. All payments made by or on behalf of the Corporation under or with respect to the Securities will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto) imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Government of Canada (or any other jurisdiction in which the Corporation or a payor is organized or resident for tax purposes) or of any province or territory thereof or by any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (hereinafter “Relevant Taxes”), unless the Corporation is required to withhold or deduct Relevant Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Corporation is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Relevant Taxes from any payment made by or on behalf of it under or with respect to the Securities, the Corporation will pay as additional interest such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder or beneficial owner after such withholding or deduction (and after deducting any Relevant Taxes on such Additional Amounts) will not be less than the amount the Holder or beneficial owner would have received if such Relevant Taxes had not been withheld or deducted. However, no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a payment made to a Holder (such Holder, an “Excluded Holder”) in respect of the beneficial owner thereof:

(i)            with which the Corporation does not deal at arm’s length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time of making such payment;

(ii)           which is subject to such Relevant Taxes by reason of the Holder being a resident, domicile or national of, or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some connection with Canada or any province or territory thereof otherwise than by the mere holding of Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder;

(iii)          which is subject to such Relevant Taxes by reason of the Holder’s failure to comply with any certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements if compliance is required by law, regulation, administrative practice or an applicable treaty as a precondition to exemption from, or a reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, such Relevant Taxes;

(iv)          by reason of such Holder or beneficial owner being a “specified shareholder” (within the meaning of subsection 18(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) of the Corporation at the time of payment or deemed payment, or by reason of such Holder or beneficial owner not dealing at arm’s length for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) with a “specified shareholder” of the Corporation at the time of payment or deemed payment; or

(v)           if the Holder or beneficial owner of, or person ultimately entitled to obtain any interest in, the Securities is not the sole beneficial owner of such payments, or is a fiduciary or partnership, to the extent that any beneficial owner, beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or any partner or member of such partnership would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts with respect to such payments had such beneficial owner, beneficiary, settlor, partner or member received directly its beneficial or distributive shares of such payments.

The Corporation shall also:

(i)            make such withholding or deduction; and

(ii)           remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law.

The Corporation shall furnish to the Trustee and Holders of the Securities, within 30 days after the date the payment of any Relevant Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts or other documents evidencing such payment by the Corporation.

The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder (other than an Excluded Holder) and upon written request reimburse each such Holder for the amount of:

(i)            any Relevant Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Securities;

(ii)           any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; and

(iii)          any Relevant Taxes imposed with respect to any reimbursement under clause (i) or (ii) above, but excluding any such Relevant Taxes on such Holder’s net income.

Wherever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to a Security, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

| -64- |

In any event, no Additional Amounts or indemnity will be payable with respect to taxes imposed directly or indirectly under FATCA and no Additional Amounts or indemnity will be payable in excess of the Additional Amounts or indemnity which would be required if the Holder was a resident of the United States for purposes of, and entitled to claim the benefits under, the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980), as amended.

Section 9.08         [Reserved].

Section 9.09         Financial Statements. The Corporation shall furnish to the Trustee copies of consolidated financial statements, whether annual or quarterly, of the Corporation and any report of the auditors thereon, within 15 days after such financial statements are filed with securities regulatory authorities (provided that the filing or furnishing of the Corporation’s financial statements, whether annual or quarterly and any report of the auditors thereon on the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.com or the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov in accordance with applicable securities laws will satisfy the Corporation’s obligation to furnish the Trustee with copies of same) or if the Corporation is not a “reporting issuer” (or its equivalent) required to file information with one or more securities regulators in Canada, within the same timeframes. Delivery to the Trustee of the financial statements or reports and documents in Section 9.09 hereof or otherwise in this Indenture is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Corporation’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officers’ Certificate). The Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Corporation’s compliance with the covenants or with respect to any reports or other documents filed with the Commission or the Commission’s EDGAR system or any website under this Indenture or participate in any conference calls.

Section 9.10         Limitation on Liens. The Corporation will not, and will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its or their assets (including Equity Interests of any of the Guarantors), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, which Lien secures Indebtedness, unless contemporaneously with the incurrence of such Lien, (1) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that ranks pari passu with the Securities of any series or a Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure Securities of such series or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least equally and ratably with or prior to such obligation with a Lien on the same collateral; and (2) in the case of any Lien securing an obligation that is subordinated in right of payment to the Securities of any series or a Guarantee, effective provision is made to secure the Securities of such series or such Guarantee, as the case may be, with a Lien on the same collateral that is senior to the Lien securing such subordinated obligation, in each case, for so long as such obligation is secured by such Lien. Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of any series pursuant to this paragraph shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Lien giving rise to the obligation to secure the Securities of such series on an equal and ratable or senior basis, as applicable.

| -65- |

| --- |

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common shares of the Corporation, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 9.10, in the event that any Lien is permitted under more than one of the provisions described in clauses (i) through (xxviii) of the definition of “Permitted Liens,” the Corporation will, in its sole discretion, classify such Lien and may divide and classify such Lien in more than one of the types of Liens described, and may later reclassify any Lien described in clauses (i) through (xxviii) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” (provided that at the time of reclassification the applicable Lien is permitted under such provision or provisions).

For purposes of determining compliance with any dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Liens securing Indebtedness denominated in a Foreign Currency, the dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness secured by Liens pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate as reasonably determined by the Corporation (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error), including without limitation rates published by the Bank of Canada or any other source customarily used by the Corporation, in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness secured by Liens, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness secured by Liens; provided that (x) the dollar-equivalent principal amount of any such Indebtedness secured by Liens outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date, (y) if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a Foreign Currency (or in a different currency from such Indebtedness so being incurred), and such refinancing would cause the applicable dollar-denominated restriction on Liens to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness secured by Liens, calculated as described in the following sentence, does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal amount (whichever is higher) of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing and (z) the dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness secured by Liens denominated in a Foreign Currency and incurred pursuant to a credit facility shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on, at the Corporation’s option, (i) the Issue Date, (ii) any date on which any of the respective commitments under such credit facility shall be reallocated between or among facilities or subfacilities thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise calculated for any purpose thereunder or (iii) the date of such incurrence. The principal amount of any Indebtedness secured by Liens incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

Article X

REDEMPTIONOF SECURITIES

Section 10.01       Applicability of Article. The Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise established in accordance with Section 3.01 for the Securities of a particular series) in accordance with this Article.

Section 10.02       Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Corporation to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Directors’ Resolution. In the event of any redemption at the election of the Corporation pursuant to Section 10.01, the Corporation shall notify the Trustee at least five Business Days prior (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee) to the date on which notice is required to be delivered or mailed or caused to be delivered or mailed to Holders pursuant to Section 10.04 of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed.

Section 10.03       Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all of the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be made on a pro rata basis (subject to the rules of the Depositary) unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange requirements; provided, however, that Securities shall only be redeemable in principal amounts of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Corporation and each Security Registrar in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all purposes of this Indenture and of the Securities, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 10.04       Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be delivered electronically or by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not les than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register, except that (a) redemption notices may be delivered electronically or mailed more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the notice of redemption is issued in connection with (i) a satisfaction and discharge of Securities in accordance with Article IV or (ii) a defeasance in accordance with Article XII.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(i)            the Redemption Date;

| -67- |

| --- |

(ii)           the Redemption Price;

(iii)          the accrued and unpaid interest;

(iv)          the CUSIP (or applicable         ISIN) or similar number of the Securities to be redeemed;

(v)           if less than all of the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the portions of the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed;

(vi)          that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after such date; and

(vii)         the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, accrued interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

Each notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Corporation shall be given (a) by the Corporation or, (b) at the Corporation’s request, such request to be delivered at least five days prior to the delivery or mailing of such notice (or such shorter period as the Trustee may agree to), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Corporation.

Notices of redemption pursuant to Section 10.01 may be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent established by the Corporation in its sole discretion. If a redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Corporation’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption was delivered) as any or all conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. In addition, the Corporation may provide in any notice of redemption for the Securities that payment of the Redemption Price and the performance of the Corporation’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the Redemption Price. The Corporation’s actions in determining the Redemption Price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 10.05       Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to any Redemption Date, the Corporation shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Corporation shall be acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 9.04) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on the Redemption Date.

Section 10.06       Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in Section 10.04, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Corporation shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Security shall be paid by the Corporation at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular or Special Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the same rate specified in such Security as the rate of interest.

Section 10.07       Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at an office or agency of the Corporation designated for that purpose pursuant to Section 9.03 (with, if the Corporation or the Trustee shall so require, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or other appropriate person), and the Corporation shall execute, and upon receipt of a Corporation Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge to Holders, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

Section 10.08       Redemption at the Option of the Corporation for Taxation Reasons. The Securities of a series will be subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, at the option of the Corporation, at any time, on not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior written notice, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date, in the event the Corporation determines that there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Corporation has become or would become obligated to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of an amendment to or change in the laws (including any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder) of Canada (or any jurisdiction in which we or a payor is organized or resident for tax purposes) or of any province or territory thereof or by any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (such jurisdiction, a “Relevant Jurisdiction”), or any amendment to or change in any official position, interpretation, administration or application of such laws, rules or regulations, which change is announced or becomes effective on or after the Issue Date or, if the Relevant Jurisdiction becomes a Relevant Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the applicable offering memorandum by which such Securities are offered and sold, after such date; provided, however, that no notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the relevant entity would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts.

Article XII

DEFEASANCEAND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 12.01       Corporation’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, the provisions of this Article XII shall be applicable to the Securities of each series; and the Corporation may at any time, at its option, by Directors’ Resolution elect to have either Section 12.02 or Section 12.03 applied to the outstanding Securities of any series upon compliance with the applicable conditions set forth in this Article XII.

Section 12.02       Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Corporation’s exercise of the option provided in Section 12.01 to defease the Securities of a particular series, the Corporation shall be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the Securities of such series (including the Guarantees) on the date that the applicable conditions set forth in Section 12.04 shall be satisfied. The term “defeasance” means that the Corporation shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Securities of such series (including the Guarantees) and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities (including the Guarantees) and this Indenture insofar as such Securities (including the Guarantees) shall be concerned; and the Trustee, at the expense of the Corporation, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same; provided, however, that the following rights, obligations, powers, trusts, duties and immunities shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(i)            the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series to receive, solely from the trust fund provided for in Section 12.04, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Securities when and as such payments shall become due;

(ii)           the Corporation’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06 and 9.04;

(iii)          the rights, powers, trusts, duties, indemnities and immunities of the Trustee hereunder (in each of its capacities hereunder);

Subject to compliance with this Article XII, the Corporation may exercise its option with respect to defeasance under this Section 12.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option with respect to covenant defeasance under Section 12.03 with respect to the Securities of such series.

Section 12.03       Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Corporation’s exercise of the option provided in Section 12.01 to obtain a covenant defeasance with respect to the Securities of a particular series, the Corporation shall be released from its obligations under Sections 9.06, 9.07, 9.08, 9.09 and 9.10, and any covenant provided pursuant to Section 8.01, with respect to the Securities of such series on and after the date that the applicable conditions set forth in Section 12.04 shall be satisfied, and the Securities shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent, or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed to be outstanding for accounting purposes). The term “covenant defeasance” means that, with respect to the Securities of such series and Guarantees related thereto, the Corporation and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in Sections 9.06, 9.07, 9.08, 9.09 and 9.10, and any covenant provided pursuant to Section 8.01, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to such Section or Article or by reason of any reference in such Section or Article to any other provision herein or in any other document, and such omission to comply shall not constitute an Event of Default under Section 5.01 with respect to the Securities of such series; but the remaining provisions of this Indenture and the other terms of the Securities of such series and related Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Corporation’s exercise under Section 12.01 of the option applicable to this Section 12.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.04, Section 5.01(4) shall not constitute an Event of Default.

Section 12.04       Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to defeasance under Section 12.02 and covenant defeasance under Section 12.03 with respect to the Securities of a particular series:

(1)           The Corporation shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as a trust fund in trust for the purpose of making the payments described below, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series cash, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and each installment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of such series on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series; provided, that upon any redemption that requires the payment of premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to such premium calculated as of the date of the deposit, with any deficit as of the Redemption Date only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date.

| -71- |

| --- |

(2)           No Event of Default or event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit).

(3)           Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Corporation is a party or by which it is bound.

(4)           In the case of an election under Section 12.02, the Corporation must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that: (1) the Corporation has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or (2) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable laws or regulations, in either case to the effect that and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the Securities of such series then Outstanding should not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and should be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred.

(5)           In the case of an election under Section 12.03, the Corporation must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the Securities of such series then Outstanding should not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and should be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred.

(6)           The Corporation has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel qualified to practice law in Canada or a ruling from the Canada Revenue Agency to the effect that the Holders of the Securities of such series then Outstanding should not recognize income, gain or loss for Canadian federal or provincial income or other Canadian tax purposes as a result of such defeasance or covenant defeasance and should be subject to Canadian federal or provincial income and other Canadian tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case had such defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, not occurred (and for the purposes of such opinion, such Canadian counsel shall assume that Holders of such series then Outstanding include Holders who are not resident in Canada).

(7)           The Corporation shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Section 12.04 relating to either the defeasance under Section 12.02 or the covenant defeasance under Section 12.03, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Section 12.05       Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.04, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee (collectively, for the purposes of this Section 12.05, the “Trustee”)) pursuant to Section 12.04 in respect of the Securities of a particular series then Outstanding shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Corporation and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 12.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof, other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Securities for whose benefit such U.S. Government Obligations are held.

Anything in this Article XII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Corporation from time to time, upon Corporation Request, any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 12.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent chartered accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited for the purpose for which such money or U.S. Government Obligations were deposited.

Section 12.06       Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 12.05 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Corporation’s obligations under this Indenture and such Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.04 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 12.05; provided, however, that if the Corporation makes any payment of principal of or interest on any such Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Corporation shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

RECITALSOF THE Corporation

**WHEREAS,**the Corporation and the Trustee entered into an indenture, dated as of October 7, 2025 (the “Original Indenture”). Section 8.01(9) of the Original Indenture provides that the Corporation and the Trustee may, without the consent of any Holder, enter into a supplemental indenture to provide for the issuance of additional series of Securities in accordance with the Original Indenture.

There shall be and there is hereby created for issuance under the Original Indenture, as supplemented by this First Supplemental Indenture (i) a series of Securities which shall consist of an aggregate principal amount of U.S.$600,000,000 2030 Notes and (ii) a series of Securities which shall consist of an aggregate principal amount of U.S.$600,000,000 2035 Notes; provided, however, that if the Corporation shall, at any time after the date hereof, increase the principal amount of the 2030 Notes or 2035 Notes, which may be issued and issue such increased principal amount (or any portion thereof), then any such additional 2030 Notes or 2035 Notes so issued shall have the same form and terms (other than the date of issuance and the date from which interest thereon shall begin to accrue and, under certain circumstances, the first interest payment date), and shall carry the same right to receive accrued and unpaid interest, as the 2030 Notes or 2035 Notes theretofore issued, as the case may be; and provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be entitled to increase the principal amount of 2030 Notes or 2035 Notes which may be issued or issue any such increased principal amount if the Corporation has effected satisfaction and discharge of the Original Indenture pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Original Indenture or defeasance or covenant defeasance pursuant to Article 12 of the Original Indenture.

The 2030 Notes will mature, and the principal of the 2030 Notes and accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be due and payable, on October 7, 2030, or such earlier date as the principal of any of the 2030 Notes may become due and payable in accordance with the provisions of the Original Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture.

The 2035 Notes will mature, and the principal of the 2035 Notes and accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be due and payable, on October 7, 2035, or such earlier date as the principal of any of the 2035 Notes may become due and payable in accordance with the provisions of the Original Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture.

The 2030 Notes and 2035 Notes shall each bear interest on the principal amount thereof from October 7, 2025 or from the last date to which interest shall have been paid or duly made available for payment on the 2030 Notes or 2035 Notes, whichever is later, at the rate of (i) 4.700% per annum for the 2030 Notes; and (ii) 5.400% per annum for the 2035 Notes, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 7 and October 7 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) in each year, commencing April 7, 2026 until the principal of and premium, if any, on the applicable series of Notes is paid or duly made available for payment; and should the Corporation at any time default in the payment of any principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the 2030 Notes or 2035 Notes, as applicable, when due, the Corporation shall pay interest (such interest to be payable on demand), to the extent permitted by law, on the amount in default at the same rate applicable to the series of Notes on which the Corporation defaulted. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Original Indenture, be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or one or more predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on March 23 or September 22, as the case may be, next preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date (the “Regular Record Dates”), regardless of whether any such Regular Record Date is a Business Day. Any such interest on the 2030 Notes or 2035 Notes not so punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall be payable as provided in the form of 2030 Note and form of 2035 Note annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

The Notes constitute unsecured obligations of the Corporation and rank pari passu with all of its other unsecured and unsubordinated debt from time to time outstanding and pari passu with other notes issued pursuant to the Original Indenture.

All payments of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, and all references herein to “United States dollars”, “U.S.$” or “U.S. dollars” shall be deemed to refer to such coin or currency of the United States of America.

The principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be payable, and the Notes may be surrendered for exchange, registration, transfer or discharge from registration, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in St. Paul, Minnesota, and in such other Corporate Trust Office identified in the Original Indenture maintained for such purposes. The Trustee is hereby appointed as the initial Paying Agent, registrar and transfer agent for the Notes.

In addition, interest may be paid at the option of the Corporation by wire transfer to the person entitled thereto as shown on and pursuant to the wire instructions for such person as provided for in the Security Register.

The Notes of each series shall be issued only as fully registered Notes, without coupons, in denominations of U.S.$2,000 and integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 thereafter.

The 2030 Notes and 2035 Notes and the certificate of authentication of the Trustee endorsed thereon shall be in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and variations as the Trustee may approve and shall be numbered in such manner as the Trustee may approve, such approvals of the Trustee concerning the Note to be conclusively evidenced by its certification of the Note.

The Security Register referred to in Section 3.05 of the Original Indenture shall, with respect to the Notes, be kept at the office or agency that the Corporation may from time to time designate for such purpose (which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee), and at such other place or places as the Corporation with the approval of the Trustee may hereafter designate.

The Notes shall be subject to redemption at the option of the Corporation as provided in Article 3 (Optional Redemption of Notes) of this First Supplemental Indenture and Article 10 of the Original Indenture and the Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Corporation as provided in Article 4 (Change of Control) of this First Supplemental Indenture. The Notes shall be subject to a Special Mandatory Redemption (as defined herein) as provided in Article 3 of this First Supplemental Indenture. The Corporation shall not otherwise be required to redeem, purchase or repay Notes pursuant to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund or analogous provision or at the option of the holders thereof. The Notes will not be convertible into or exchangeable for securities of any Person.

The Corporation shall be required to pay Additional Amounts as contemplated in Section 9.07 of the Original Indenture.

Other terms and provisions relating to the Notes are set forth in the Appendix, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this First Supplemental Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Corporation or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Corporation). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the interest rate. The Corporation’s actions and determinations in determining the interest rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.2	Issuance of Notes

Each of the 2030 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of U.S.$600,000,000 and the 2035 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of U.S.$600,000,000 shall be executed on behalf of the Corporation by any two of the following Officers: President and Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, the Executive Vice President, Chief Legal & Administrative Officer, the Vice President, Treasury, the Vice President, Global Tax, the Vice President Corporate Development, or and any individuals having similar functions and delivered by the Corporation to the Trustee on the date of issue for authentication and delivery pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02 of the Original Indenture and, upon the requirements of such provisions being complied with, such Notes shall be authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee and delivered by it to or upon the Corporation Order of the Corporation without any further act or formality on the part of the Corporation. The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility with respect to the use or application of any of the Notes so certified and delivered or the proceeds thereof.

3.3	Certain Additional Definitions

For the purposes of this First Supplemental Indenture, the following expressions shall have the following meanings:

“Hanesbrands Acquisition” means the direct or indirect acquisition by the Corporation of Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

“Merger Agreement” means that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 13, 2025, by and among the Corporation, Galaxy Merger Sub 1, Inc., Galaxy Merger Sub 2, Inc., Hanesbrands Inc., Helios Holdco, Inc., and Helios Merger Sub, Inc., as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms.

“TreasuryRate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Corporation in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Corporation after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date (or in the case of defeasance or satisfaction and discharge, two Business Days prior to the deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent) based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)-H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities-Treasury constant maturities-Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Corporation shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the applicable Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the applicable Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.

If on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date (or in the case of defeasance or satisfaction and discharge, the second Business Day prior to the deposit with the Trustee or paying agent) H.15 TCM or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Corporation shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date (or in the case of defeasance or satisfaction and discharge, the date of the deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent) of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the applicable Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the applicable Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the applicable Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the applicable Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the applicable Par Call Date, the Corporation shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the applicable Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the applicable Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

In case of the failure of the Corporation punctually to make any such payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, that may be payable with respect to the Notes or any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to the Notes, each Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether on the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Corporation.

To the extent that any Guarantor shall be required to pay any amounts on account of the Notes pursuant to a Guarantee in excess of an amount calculated as the product of (i) the aggregate amount payable by the Guarantors on account of the Notes pursuant to their respective Guarantees times (ii) the proportion (expressed as a fraction) that such Guarantor’s net worth (defined as, with respect to any Guarantor, the amount by which the fair value of the property of such Guarantor exceeds the total amount of its liabilities, including, without limitation, contingent liabilities (but only to the extent and for the amount that such contingent liabilities are likely to result in actual liabilities) determined in accordance with GAAP) at the date enforcement of the Guarantees is sought bears to the aggregate net worth of all Guarantors at such date, then such Guarantor shall be reimbursed by the other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based upon the respective net worth of such other Guarantors at the date enforcement of the Guarantees is sought. This paragraph is intended only to define the relative rights of Guarantors as among themselves, and nothing set forth in this paragraph is intended to or shall impair the joint and several obligations of the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of the Notes, the Original Indenture or this First Supplemental Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of the Notes, the Original Indenture or this First Supplemental Indenture, or any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Corporation with respect thereto or hereto, by the Holder of the Notes or the Trustee or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of such Guarantor, increase the principal amount of the Notes, or increase the interest rate thereon, or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof, or alter the Stated Maturity thereof.
