Provided that the Financing Condition has been satisfied or waived by the Settlement Date (as defined below) and all other conditions to the Offers have been satisfied or waived by the Company by the Expiration Date, settlement for all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase will be three business days after the Expiration Date, which is expected to be July 3, 2025, unless extended by the Company with respect to any Offer (the "Settlement Date").
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase in the Offers will receive the applicable Total Consideration for each CAD 1,000 principal amount of such Notes in cash on the Settlement Date. Promptly after 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on June 30, 2025, the Price Determination Date, unless extended by the Company with respect to any Offer, the Company will issue a press release specifying, among other things, the Total Consideration for each series of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase or that the Company intends to accept for purchase subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Condition by the Settlement Date. In addition to the applicable Total Consideration, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase by the Company will receive a cash payment equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from and including the immediately preceding interest payment date for such Notes to, but excluding, the Settlement Date (the "Accrued Coupon Payment").
Interest will cease to accrue on the Settlement Date for all Notes accepted in the Offers.

Any Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Offers but not accepted for purchase by the Company will be returned promptly to the tendering Holders thereof.
The Company may increase or waive the Maximum Purchase Amount with or without extending the Withdrawal Date. If Holders tender more Notes in the Offers than they expect to be accepted for purchase based on the Maximum Purchase Amount and the Company subsequently accepts more than such Holders expected of such Notes tendered as a result of an increase of the Maximum Purchase Amount, such Holders may not be able to withdraw any of their previously tendered Notes. The Offers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as described in the Offer to Purchase, including the Company having raised by the Settlement Date net proceeds through one or more issuances of debt in the public or private capital markets, on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Company, sufficient to purchase all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted for purchase by the Company in the Offers and to pay accrued and unpaid interest and all fees and expenses in connection with the Offers (the "Financing Condition").
The Company reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to waive any and all conditions to any Offer.

The Offers are not conditioned on the tender of any aggregate minimum principal amount of Notes of any series (subject to minimum denomination requirements as set forth in the Offer to Purchase).
