(c) The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act), which (i) are reasonably designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions by others within the Company, particularly during the periods in which the periodic reports required under the Exchange Act are being prepared; (ii) have been evaluated for effectiveness as of December 31, 2013; and (iii) are effective in all material respects to perform the functions for which they were established.  Based on the evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2013, the Company is not aware of (i) any significant deficiency in the design or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data or any material weaknesses in internal controls that has not been remedied, or (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls.

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has any liability with respect to any “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) solely by reason of Parent, the Company or any of its subsidiaries being treated as a single employer under Section 414 of the Code with any trade, business or entity other than Parent, the Company and the subsidiaries that would continue to be or become a liability to the Company or any of its subsidiaries on or after the date hereof.

7.1 Parent and Company Indemnification.   From and after the Closing, Parent, the Company and Opco, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser and its officers, directors and Affiliates (including any director, officer, employee, agent and controlling person of any of the foregoing) (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Person”) from and against all Damages sustained or incurred by a Purchaser Indemnified Person arising from, relating to or resulting from (i) the breach of the representations and warranties made by Parent and the Company in this Agreement (in each case, other than for Sections 2.5 or the definition of Material Contract, without giving effect to any materiality, materially adverse or similar qualification contained therein), (ii)  the breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement made by the Company in the Certificate of Designations or (iii) any third party claims, whether asserted prior to or following the Closing, with respect to the matter specified in Schedule 7.1.  “Damages” means all losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including reasonable

21

attorneys’ and accountants’ fees, costs of investigation, costs of suit and costs of appeal), fines and penalties (other than speculative, remote, treble, exemplary and punitive damages).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no claims by or on behalf of a Purchaser Indemnified Person shall be asserted under clause (i) of this Section 7.1 unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages that would otherwise be recoverable under clause (i) of this Section 7.1 exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $10,000,000, provided that this sentence shall not apply to any such claim arising from, relating to or resulting from a breach of any Fundamental Representations.

7.2 Purchaser Indemnification.  From and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors and Affiliates (including any director, officer, employee, agent and controlling person of any of the foregoing) (each, a “Company Indemnified Person”) from and against all Damages sustained or incurred by a Company Indemnified Person arising from, relating to or resulting from (i) the breach of the representations and warranties made by the Purchaser in this Agreement (in each case without giving effect to any materiality or materially adverse event qualifier contained therein) or (ii) the breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement made by the Purchaser in this Agreement.

7.3 Indemnification Procedures.  A party entitled to indemnification hereunder (each, an “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to the party indemnifying it (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification promptly after the discovery by such Indemnified Party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article VII unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced by the failure of such Indemnified Party to so notify such party.  Such notice shall describe in reasonable detail such claim and shall include (if then known, and if not then known, a reasonable and good faith estimate of) the amount or the method of computation of the amount of such claim and reference to the provision(s) of this Agreement on which such claim is based. In case any such action, suit, claim or proceeding is brought against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to hire, at its own expense, separate counsel and participate in the defense thereof; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and conduct the defense thereof, unless the counsel to the Indemnified Party advises such Indemnifying Party in writing that such claim involves a conflict of interest (other than one of a monetary nature) that would reasonably be expected to make it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party (except that the Indemnifying Party shall only be liable for the legal fees and expenses of one law firm for all Indemnified Parties, taken together with respect to any single action or group of related actions). If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any claim, all Indemnified Parties shall thereafter deliver to the Indemnifying Party copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the claim, and each Indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such claim. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement

22

of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent. The Indemnifying Party further agrees that it will not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification has been sought hereunder unless such settlement or compromise (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding, (ii) does not impose injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party and (iii) does not require the Indemnified Party to make a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act. If an offer is made to settle a pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding, which offer the Indemnifying Party is permitted to settle under this Section 7.3 only upon the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party will give prompt written notice to the Indemnified Party to that effect.  If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within twenty (20) calendar days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such claim and, in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such claim will not exceed the amount of such settlement offer, plus costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Indemnified Party through the date such settlement offer is given to the Indemnified Party and which amount is otherwise indemnifiable hereunder.

7.4 Exclusion of Other Remedies.  The parties agree that from and after the Closing the indemnification or reimbursement obligations of the parties set forth in this Article VII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties for any Damages based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of the matters set forth in this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 7.4 will not, however, prevent or limit a cause of action (a) on account of fraud (but not constructive fraud) or (b) under Section 9.8.

7.5 Investigation and Waivers.   The respective representations and warranties of Purchaser and the Company contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other document delivered by any party hereto prior to the Closing and the rights to indemnification set forth in this Article VII shall not be deemed waived or otherwise affected by any investigation made by a party and each party shall be entitled to rely on the representations and warranties of the other party despite such investigation or any knowledge that such party may otherwise have.  In addition, a party’s right to indemnity pursuant to this Article VII shall not be adversely affected by its waiver of a condition to closing set forth in Article VI, as applicable or by its determination that such condition has been satisfied.

7.6 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments.  All indemnification payments under this Article VII shall be treated as adjustments to the Subscription Price for tax purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

ARTICLE VIII.
TERMINATION

8.1 Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date:

23

(a) by mutual written consent of the Purchaser and the Company;

(b) by either party hereto if the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before October 1, 2014 (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any material obligation under this Agreement has been a proximate cause of the failure of the Closing to be consummated on or before the Termination Date;

(c) by Purchaser, if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and if there shall have been a material breach by the Company of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1(a) or Section 6.1(b); or

(d) by the Company, if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and if there shall have been a material breach by Purchaser of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b).

8.2 Effect of Termination. Any proper termination of this Agreement under Section 8.1 will be effective immediately upon the delivery of a valid written notice of the terminating party to the other party hereto. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1 hereof, (i) this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and be of no further force or effect, except as set forth in Section 4.3, this Section 8.2 and Article IX, each of which shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, and (ii) there shall be no liability on the part of Purchaser or Parent or the Company (or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, agents or representatives); provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent a party from bringing a specific performance claim (or a claim for injunctive relief) or shall relieve a party from liability (or limit such liability) for any failure to close when required hereunder or for any breach occurring prior to such termination.

ARTICLE IX.
MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Survival.

(a) Other than the representations and warranties of Parent and the Company specified in the next sentence, the representations and warranties in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and will not terminate for twenty four (24) months following the Closing Date.  The representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.8, 2.10, 2.12 and 2.17 (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive the Closing indefinitely, or until the 30th day following the earlier expiration of any applicable statute of limitations relating to the subject matter of such representation.

(b) The covenants and agreements of the Company and the Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall, subject to the express terms thereof, survive the Closing indefinitely, or

24

such shorter period as may be expressly stated therein.

9.2 Public Announcements.  The Company and the Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in relaying to third parties information concerning this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, and shall discuss drafts of all press releases and other releases of information for dissemination to the public pertaining hereto.  However, nothing in this Section 9.2 shall prevent the Company or the Purchaser from furnishing or filing any information to or with any Governmental Body or regulatory authority, insofar as is required by this Agreement or any Legal Requirement, provided that a party which proposes to make such a public disclosure shall, to the extent reasonably possible, provide the other party with a draft of such information in sufficiently in advance of its release to enable such other party to review such draft and advise that party of any comments it may have with respect thereto.  In particular, the Company agrees that it shall, except as required by any applicable Legal Requirement, obtain consent of the Purchaser to the disclosure of any information regarding the Purchaser to be contained in any news release or other document furnished or filed to or with any Governmental Body, authorized authority or disclosed to the public.

9.3 Waiver.  Any party hereto may extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts required hereunder, waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein.  Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby or as otherwise contemplated herein.  No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other (or further) exercise thereof or of any other right.

9.4 Notices.  All notices, consents, waivers, and other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when (a) delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) sent by facsimile with confirmation of transmission by the transmitting equipment, (c) received by the addressee, if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested or (d) received by the addressee, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, return receipt requested, in each case to the appropriate addresses or facsimile numbers set forth below (or to such other addresses, e-mail addresses or facsimile numbers as a party may designate by notice to the other parties):

Nothing in this section, however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

9.6 Further Assurances.   The parties agree (a) to furnish upon request to each other such further information, (b) to execute and deliver to each other such other documents, and (c) to do such other acts and things, all as the other parties may reasonably request, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, (i) the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to timely satisfy each of the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Section 6.1 of this Agreement and (ii) the Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to timely satisfy each of the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Section 6.2 of this Agreement.

9.7 Entire Agreement and Modification.  This Agreement, together with the schedules and annexes hereto, supersedes all prior agreements between the parties solely with respect to its subject matter (other than (i) the Confidentiality Agreement, which, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall terminate in accordance with the provisions thereof and (ii) the letter of intent, dated August 30, 2014 by and among Purchaser, the Company and Vestar Capital Partners V, L.P., which shall remain in effect and only terminate if the Closing occurs hereunder), and constitutes (along with the documents to be delivered at Closing pursuant to this Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties solely with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement executed by Purchaser and the Company.  The parties hereto make no representations or warranties, express or implied, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except for the express representations and warranties of such party contained

27

in this Agreement.

9.10 Severability.  If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Legal Requirement or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.  Upon such determination that any term or provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to amend or otherwise modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner such that that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

9.12 Restricted Information.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent the Company is permitted to withhold information due to privilege, contractual limitation, Legal Requirement or otherwise, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to provide to the Purchaser, the Purchaser Director or Purchaser’s representatives, as applicable, such information in a manner that does not violate such limitations or restrictions to the extent

28

possible.

9.13 Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York without regard to any conflicts of law principles (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would require the application of the law of any other jurisdiction.

9.15 Execution of Agreement; Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.  The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile, or by .pdf or similar imaging transmission, will constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes.  Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile, or by .pdf or similar imaging transmission, will be deemed to be their original signatures for any purpose whatsoever and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.

9.16 Currency.  All references to currency, monetary value and dollars set forth herein mean United States (U.S.) dollars and all payments hereunder shall be made in United States dollars.

9.17 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Owners, Etc.  No director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, controlling Person, manager, member, general partner, limited partner, principal or other agent of any of the Purchaser or Parent, the Company or Opco shall have any liability for any obligations of the Purchaser or Parent, the Company or Opco, as applicable, under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the respective obligations of the Purchaser or Parent, the Company or Opco, as applicable, under this Agreement.  Each of parties hereto hereby waives and releases all liability described in the immediately preceding sentence.  This waiver and release is a material inducement to each party’s entry into this Agreement.

29

9.18 30% Rule Compliance.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no CPPIB Entity (each an “Applicable Entity”) will be required or permitted to make any investment in any Group Entity that would be reasonably expected to cause any such Applicable Entity to be in breach of or to contravene the 30% Rule (as supported by the written opinion of external legal counsel to such Applicable Entity at its own cost).

(b) The Group Entities will co-operate with the relevant Applicable Entities (to the extent commercially reasonable and provided that one or more of the Applicable Entities agree to reimburse the Group Entities for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by them, if any, in respect of any such cooperation, excluding the cost of acquiring any securities) to assist the Applicable Entities to comply with the 30% Rule in relation to their investment in any Group Entity. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Group Entity agrees to take any action or step reasonably requested by any Applicable Entity, including, without limitation, a change in the authorized capital of a Group Entity, that is necessary to avoid any breach or potential breach of the 30% Rule, or any amendment or replacement of that rule, including, without limitation, any breach or potential breach arising in connection with the potential exercise of any rights of first refusal or first offer, any pre-emptive rights, any right or obligation to transfer or exchange securities (including in connection with but prior to the completion of any Public Offering (including a Qualified IPO) or the issuance of equity securities in any merger or other business combination (including a Qualified Merger), or any option, warrant or other right or obligation to purchase or acquire securities (including upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock purchased hereunder), in each case existing or arising under this Agreement or otherwise in relation to any Group Entity.  In addition, each Group Entity agrees that it shall not, without CPPIB’s prior written consent, issue any new securities or otherwise alter its capital structure in any way that would affect or adjust any securityholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights to appoint and remove directors of the Group Entity or would otherwise change the authorized or issued share capital of the Group Entity or the rights attaching thereto if such change would result in a breach of the 30% Rule.

(c) The Group Entities agree that they will co-operate with any Applicable Entity (including, for greater certainty, following the completion of an initial Public Offering by the Company (including a Qualified IPO)) and use reasonable efforts to provide such information or certifications as may reasonably be required by the Applicable Entities in the event the Applicable Entities make an application to the Ontario Securities Commission for a discretionary order providing a prospectus exemption from applicable Canadian securities laws to facilitate the resale of Registrable Securities or any securities issued in any merger or other business combination involving the Company (including a Qualified Merger).
