(f)                                    to promptly notify Parent and Purchaser upon any of the Peak Shareholder’s representations and warranties contained herein becoming untrue or incorrect in any material respect prior to the date on which the Plan of Arrangement becomes effective (the “Effective Time”), and for the purposes of this provision, each representation and warranty shall be deemed to be given at and as of all times during such period (irrespective of any language which suggests that it is only being given as at the date hereof); and

(g)                                 to not take any other action of any kind which might reasonably be regarded as likely to reduce the success of, or delay or interfere with the completion of, the Arrangement.

8

manage, direct, superintend, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any of the policies or operations of Peak or exercise any power or authority to direct the Peak Shareholder in the voting of any of the Owned Peak Securities, or in the performance of the Peak Shareholder’s duties or responsibilities as a shareholder of Peak, except as otherwise provided herein.

2.7                               Remedies

The Peak Shareholder agrees that irreparable harm would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy at law.
