The Company and the Guarantor, during the period when the Prospectus (or, in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) is required to be delivered under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), will comply, in a timely manner, with all applicable requirements under the Exchange Act relating to the filing with the Commission of the Company’s reports pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and, if then applicable, the Company’s proxy statements pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act. The Company shall pay the required Commission filing fees relating to the Securities within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) of the Securities Act and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) of the Securities Act (including, if applicable, by updating the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in accordance with Rule 456(b)(1)(ii) either in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or on the cover page of the Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)). Provided that the Underwriters comply with Section 5(b)(viii) hereof, the Company will cause to be provided or filed all documents required to be provided to or filed with the applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities in connection with the offering of Securities in Canada in accordance with applicable Canadian Securities Laws, including, without limitation, any offering memorandum (under applicable Canadian Securities Laws) and any reports of trade on Form 45-106F1 prescribed by NI 45-106, as applicable.

(b)    Delivery of Copies. The Company will furnish to the Underwriters as many copies of each Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum and the Canadian Offering Memorandum (each as amended or supplemented) as the Representatives shall reasonably request during the Prospectus Delivery Period in connection with sales or solicitations of offers to purchase the Securities.

(c)    Amendments or Supplements; Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. During the period from and including the date of this Agreement through and including the Closing Date, at or prior to the filing thereof, the Company will give the Representatives notice of its intention to file any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum (other than an amendment or supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Securities), whether by the filing of documents pursuant to the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or otherwise, and will furnish the Underwriters with copies of any such amendment or supplement or other documents a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which the Representatives or counsel to the Underwriters shall reasonably object, unless, in the judgment of the Company or its counsel, such amendment or supplement or other document is necessary to comply with law. Unless otherwise notified by the Representatives, the Company will prepare the Pricing Term Sheet reflecting the final terms of an offering of Securities, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, and shall file such Pricing Term Sheet as an “issuer free writing prospectus” pursuant to Rule 433 under the Securities Act prior to the close of business within two days following the date such final terms are established.

(d)    Notice to the Representatives. The Company will notify the Representatives promptly of (i) the filing or effectiveness of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement (other than a post-effective amendment relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Securities); (ii) the transmittal to the Commission for filing of any amendment or

12

supplement to the Prospectus (other than a supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Securities); (iii) the receipt of any comments from the Commission with respect to the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus (other than any comments relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Securities); (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or for additional information (other than any such request relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Securities); (v) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (vi) the Company becoming the subject of a proceeding under Section 8A of the Securities Act in connection with the offering of the Securities; and (vii) the issuance of any order, ruling or decision of any Canadian federal or provincial court or securities regulatory authority restricting or ceasing trading in any of the securities of the Company or suspending or preventing the use of the Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum or the Canadian Offering Memorandum or the receipt of any notification from any Canadian federal or provincial court or securities regulatory authority of the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, if any such stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible time unless the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine that it is not in its best interest to do so.

(e)    Ongoing Compliance. If during the Prospectus Delivery Period (i) any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, after consultation with counsel for the Underwriters, to amend or supplement the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum in order that the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum, as applicable, will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or contain a “misrepresentation” as defined under applicable Canadian Securities Laws, or if it shall be necessary in the opinion of counsel for the Company to amend or supplement the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum in order to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, prompt notice shall be given, and confirmed in writing, to the Representatives, and the Company will prepare and file as soon as practicable such amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as applicable, as may be necessary to correct such misstatement or omission or to make the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum, as applicable, comply with such requirements and the Company will furnish to the Underwriters, without charge, such number of copies of such amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing as the Underwriters may reasonably request. The filing of any such amendment or supplement shall not constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum or the Canadian Offering Memorandum or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, or contained or would contain a “misrepresentation” as defined under applicable Canadian Securities Laws, the Company will

13

promptly notify the Representatives and will promptly amend or supplement such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission.

(f)    Blue Sky Compliance. The Company will endeavor, in cooperation with the Underwriters, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states in the United States as the Representatives may reasonably designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect for as long as may be required for the distribution of the Securities; provided, however, that the Company will promptly notify the Representatives of any suspension or termination of any such qualifications; and provided, further, that neither the Company nor the Guarantor shall be obligated to register or qualify as a foreign corporation or take any action which would subject it to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

(g)    Earnings Statement. The Company will make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable but in any event not later than 15 months after the Closing Date, a consolidated earnings statement (which need not be audited), which earnings statement will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 under the Securities Act.

5.    Certain Agreements of the Underwriters.

(a)    Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, covenants with the Company that:

The officer’s certificate shall further state that, except as contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum or reflected therein by the filing of any amendment or supplement thereto or any Incorporated Document prior to the date of this Agreement, at the Closing Date, there has not been, since the date of the most recent consolidated financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum, any material adverse change in the consolidated financial condition or earnings of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise.

The offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Underwriters and the offer and resale of the Securities by the Underwriters to purchasers resident in Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Québec (the “Selling Jurisdictions”) are exempt from the prospectus requirements of the Securities Act (Alberta), the Securities Act (British Columbia), the Securities Act (Ontario) and the Securities Act (Québec) and no prospectus is required nor are other documents required to be filed, proceedings taken or approvals, permits, consents or authorizations of regulatory authorities obtained under the Canadian Securities Laws, including all rules and published policy statements of the Selling Jurisdictions, by the Company to permit the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Underwriters and the offer and resale of the Securities by the Underwriters to the purchasers resident in the Selling Jurisdictions through persons (x) registered under such Canadian Securities Laws in categories permitting them to distribute the Securities who have complied with Canadian Securities Laws and the terms and conditions of their registration or (y) exempt from the dealer registration requirements under applicable Canadian Securities Laws who have complied with Canadian Securities Laws and the terms and conditions of the applicable exemption, subject to: the filing by the Company, with respect to each purchaser resident in the Selling Jurisdictions, of duly completed reports pursuant to Part 6 of NI 45-106 with the applicable securities regulator or securities regulatory authority, together with the applicable fees within the prescribed time periods and (ii) in Ontario, delivery of the Canadian Offering Memorandum to the Ontario Securities Commission.

18

(h)    Securities. The Securities shall have been duly executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Company and duly authenticated by the Trustee.

7.    Indemnification and Contribution.

(a)    Indemnification of the Underwriters. The Company and the Guarantor jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and its directors, officers affiliates and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act as follows:

19

(b)    Indemnification of the Company and the Guarantor. Each Underwriter (severally and not jointly) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantor, each of their respective directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through a Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum.

(c)    Notice and Procedures. In case any action, suit or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought against any Underwriter or any person controlling such Underwriter, based upon the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any preliminary prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum and with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company pursuant to paragraph (a) above, such Underwriter or controlling person shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel (such counsel to be reasonably acceptable to the Representatives) and payment of all expenses. Any such Underwriter or any such controlling person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, suit or proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such controlling person unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Company, (ii) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel or (iii) the named parties to any such action, suit or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) shall include both such Underwriter or such controlling person and the Company, and

20

such Underwriter or such controlling person shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from, or additional to, those available to the Company (in which case, if such Underwriter or such controlling person notifies the Company in writing that it selects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company, the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action, suit or proceeding on behalf of such Underwriter or such controlling person, it being understood, however, that the Company shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Underwriters and such controlling persons, which firm shall be designated in writing by the Representatives on behalf of all such Underwriters and such controlling persons).

In case any action, suit or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company or the Guarantor, with respect to which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter pursuant to paragraph (b) above, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company by the first paragraph of this paragraph (c), and the Company, the Guarantor, their respective directors and officers and any such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by the first paragraph of this paragraph (c); provided that, in the event that the Company, the Guarantor or any such director, officer or controlling person shall have the right to employ, and shall have elected to employ, separate counsel at the expense of such Underwriter under the circumstances set forth in this paragraph (c), any such counsel shall be designated in writing by the Company.

(d)    Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in paragraphs (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, is for any reason held to be unenforceable with respect to the indemnified parties although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required pursuant to paragraph (c) above or pursuant to the last sentence of this paragraph (d), then the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters shall contribute to such aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Securities received by the Company (before deducting expenses) bear to the

21

total commissions or other compensation or remuneration received by the Underwriters in respect thereof. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Guarantor or the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities purchased by it exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this paragraph (d) are several and not joint, and shall be in proportion to the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in the Underwriting Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each respective director of the Company and the Guarantor, each respective officer of the Company and the Guarantor who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantor. Any party entitled to contribution pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph (d), will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this paragraph (d), notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have under this paragraph (d), except to the extent that the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought have been materially prejudiced through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by such failure; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve such party or parties from any obligation that it or they may have otherwise than under this paragraph (d); and provided, further, that such notice need not be given if such party entitled to contribution hereunder has previously given notice pursuant to paragraph (c) above with respect to the same action, suit or proceeding.

8.    Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above.

9.    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and on or prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on the New York Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company or the Guarantor shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market (other than pursuant to a request by the Company or the Guarantor with respect to an announcement by the Company or the Guarantor of certain information not constituting a material adverse change, since the date of this Agreement, in the consolidated financial condition or earnings of the Company and its subsidiaries,

22

considered as one enterprise); (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Canadian, U.S. federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus and the Canadian Offering Memorandum.

In the event of any such termination, no party will have any liability to any other party hereto, except that (i) the provisions set forth in Sections 2(e), 7, 16(c) and 16(d) hereof shall remain in effect, and (ii) if this Agreement is terminated by the Underwriters in accordance with the provisions of Section 9(ii) hereof, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriters for all of their out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters.

10.    Defaulting Underwriter. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail on the Closing Date to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters satisfactory to the Company, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(a)    if the aggregate principal amount of the Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased hereunder, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the respective proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

(b)    if the aggregate principal amount of the Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

11.    Payment of Expenses. The Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including: (i) the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits) as originally filed and of each amendment thereto and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, each Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum and the Canadian Offering Memorandum, and any amendments or supplements to any of the foregoing and all

23

Incorporated Documents, (ii) the filing and delivery to the Underwriters of this Agreement, the Indenture and such other documents as may be required in connection with the offering, purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities, (iii) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters, (iv) the fees and disbursements of the Company’s counsel, accountants and other advisors or agents (including transfer agents, paying agents, exchange rate agents and registrars), as well as the fees and disbursements of the Trustee and its counsel and CDS, (v) the qualification of the Securities under state securities laws or the applicable laws of any foreign jurisdiction in which the Securities are offered in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(f) hereof, including filing fees, (vi) the printing and delivery to the Underwriters of copies of each Preliminary Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum and the Canadian Offering Memorandum and any amendments or supplements to any of the foregoing, (vii) any fees charged by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations for the rating of the Securities, (viii) all fees payable in connection with the filing of any Form 45-106F1 with applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities, (ix) fees payable to the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) and (x) the fees and expenses incurred with respect to the listing of the Securities on any securities exchange. It is understood, however, that except as provided in this Section 11 and in Sections 6, 7 and 9 hereof, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses relating to the offering of the Securities, including the fees of their counsel, transfer taxes on resale of any of the Securities, and any advertising expenses connected with any offers that they make.

12.    Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to herein, and the affiliates of each Underwriter referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters, the Company and the Guarantor and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Section 7 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained in this Agreement. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions of this Agreement are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

13.    Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company and the Guarantor submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or controlling person referred to in Section 7, or by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

15.    Compliance with USA Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

16.    Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

(a)    In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b)    In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

For purposes of this Section 16, a “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k). “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. “U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
