AMENDMENTS TO ARRANGEMENT AGREEMENT PROVISIONS
Section 2.1Amendment to Section 1.1
The definition of "Outside Date" in Section 1.1 of the Arrangement Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:
"Outside Date” means November 15, 2022, or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Parties, subject to the right of any Party to extend the Outside Date for up to an additional 15 days if all of the other conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than the delivery of items to be
delivered on the Effective Date and the satisfaction of those conditions that, by their terms, cannot be satisfied until immediately prior to the Effective Date) have been satisfied or waived and the Required Regulatory Approvals have not been obtained and have not been denied by a non-appealable decision of a Governmental Entity, by giving written notice to the other Party to such effect no later than 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date that is not less than two Business Days prior to the original Outside Date (and any subsequent Outside Date); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party shall not be permitted to extend the Outside Date if the failure to obtain any of the Required Regulatory Approvals or the Final Order is primarily the result of such Party’s Wilful Breach of this Agreement.
