Amended and Restated Convertible Note No. 1 of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. dated January 31, 2025

First Amendment and Restatement Date:

March 25, 2024 (the “Issuance Date”)

Second Amendment and Restatement Date: January 31, 2025

Original Principal Amount as of the date

hereof: $124,059,131.32

PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL. On the Maturity Date, the Issuer shall pay to the Noteholder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, together with all accrued and unpaid Interest (if any) on such Principal on the Maturity Date.

INTEREST; INTEREST RATE.

Interest on this Note shall (i) commence accruing on the Issuance Date, (ii) be computed on the basis of actual number of days in a 360-day year, and (iii) be payable, at the election of the Issuer, in cash or in kind (in accordance with

Subject to Applicable Law, at any time Interest is due and payable hereunder, such Interest shall be paid in cash, or, at the option of the Issuer with no less than five (5) Business Days’ written notice to the Noteholder, prior to the applicable Interest Date (such written notice, a “PIK Notice”), may be capitalized by adding such amounts to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of this Note then outstanding on the applicable Interest Date (each such capitalized amount, a “PIK Amount”). In the absence of a PIK Notice being delivered to the Noteholder at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Noteholder may reasonably agree) prior to the applicable Interest Date, Interest shall be paid in cash for the applicable Interest Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Interest must be paid in cash in the event and to the extent that the Issuer determines that shareholder approval would be required in order to issue the Common Shares upon conversion of the portion of the Principal attributable to any such PIK Amount.

For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), whenever any Interest under this Note is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (i) the applicable rate based on a year of 360 days (ii) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such Interest is payable (or compounded) ends, and (iii) divided by 360. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any Interest calculation under this Note and the rates of Interest stipulated in this Note are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

If any provision of this Note or of any of the other Transaction Documents would obligate the Issuer to make any payment of Interest or any other amount payable to the Noteholder in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by Applicable Law or would result in a receipt by the Noteholder of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by Applicable Law or

PAYMENTS FREE OF TAXES. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Issuer under this Note shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any payment under this Note, then (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax and/or Other Tax, the amount payable by the Issuer shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3) the Noteholder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Issuer shall make such deductions and (iii) the Issuer shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with Applicable Law and file all required forms in respect thereof and, at the same time, provide copies of such remittance and filing to the Noteholder.

CONVERSION OF NOTE. This Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.

Noteholder Conversion Right. The Noteholder shall be entitled at its option at any time (other than at such time as any conversion rights of the Noteholder shall have been suspended pursuant to the terms of this Note or the 2024 Secured Note Purchase Agreement (including Section 15 of the 2024 Secured Note Purchase Agreement)), to convert all or a portion of the Conversion Amount into that number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares determined by dividing the Conversion Amount being so converted by the Conversion Price on the Conversion Date. To convert any Conversion Amount into Common Shares on any Trading Day (the date of such conversion, a “Conversion Date”), the Noteholder shall deliver, for receipt by no earlier than 4:00 p.m. New York time, and no later than 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Conversion Date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Noteholder Conversion Notice”) to the Issuer, which Noteholder Conversion Notice shall set forth (i) the Conversion Amount being so converted, the detailed calculation of the accrued and unpaid Interest included in the Conversion Amount being so converted as of the Conversion Date, and (iii) the detailed calculation of the number of Common Shares required to be delivered in respect of such Noteholder Conversion Notice

Mechanics of Conversion.

Satisfaction of Conversion. Any conversion in accordance with this Section 4 shall be deemed satisfied upon delivery of the appropriate number of Common Shares to the Noteholder by the end of the third Trading Day after a Noteholder Conversion Notice is delivered (the “Delivery Date”). For greater certainty, the day that the Noteholder Conversion Notice is delivered does not count as a Trading Day. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Shares issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Common Shares on the Conversion Date.

Return of Note. Following a conversion of this Note in accordance with this Section 4, the Noteholder shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after such conversion and at its own expense, surrender this Note to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for delivery to the Issuer (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction as contemplated by Section 16(b)). If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion and the outstanding Principal is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Issuer shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Noteholder (or its designee) a new Note (in accordance with Section 16(d)) representing the outstanding Principal not converted.

Fractional Shares. The Issuer shall not issue any fraction of a Common Share upon any conversion. If the conversion would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Common Share, the Issuer shall round such fraction of a Common Shares down to the nearest whole share.

Payment Due Upon Failure to Deliver Common Shares on Conversion. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4, if the Issuer fails for any reason to deliver to the Noteholder the Common Shares subject to a Noteholder Conversion Notice by the end of the Delivery Date, the Issuer shall pay to the Noteholder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Common Shares subject to such conversion (based on the VWAP of the Common Share on the date of the applicable Noteholder Conversion Notice), $5 per Trading Day (increasing to $10 per Trading Day on the third Trading Day after the Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Delivery Date until such Common Shares are delivered or the Noteholder rescinds such conversion.

Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Common Shares. In addition to any other rights available to the Noteholder, if the Issuer fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Noteholder the Common Shares in accordance with the provisions this Section 4 pursuant

Market Regulation. The Issuer shall only issue Common Shares upon conversion of this Note or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Note to the extent the issuance of such Common Shares would not exceed the aggregate number of Common Shares that the Issuer may issue without violating the rules or regulations of any Eligible Market on which the Common Shares are then listed (including without limitation Section 312.03(c) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Issuer (i) obtains the approval of its shareholders as required by the applicable rules of any Eligible Market on which the Common Shares are then listed for issuances of Common Shares in excess of such amount or (ii) obtains a written opinion from counsel to the Issuer that such approval is not required. In the event that shareholder approval is required with respect to the issuance of Common Shares upon conversion of this Note (or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Note)

Antitrust and Foreign Investment Laws. The Issuer shall only issue Common Shares upon conversion of this Note or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Note to the extent the issuance of such Common Shares would not exceed the aggregate number of Common Shares that the Issuer may issue without violating the U.S. Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) or any antitrust laws of other jurisdictions or any foreign investment laws applicable in connection with the issuance of the Common Shares upon conversion of this Note, except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that (i) the Noteholder (and, if applicable, the Issuer) obtains the necessary regulatory approvals as required by any applicable antitrust laws or foreign investment laws or (ii) the Noteholder (and, if applicable, the Issuer) obtains a written opinion from counsel to the Noteholder (or, in the case of the Issuer, counsel to the Issuer) that such approval(s) are not required. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer’s non-compliance with the limitations contained in this Section 4(e) shall not constitute an Event of Default or breach of this Note by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall not have any liability under this Note or otherwise resulting therefrom, but in the event that conversion of this Note requires any filing or approval under the HSR Act or any applicable antitrust laws of any other jurisdiction and any foreign investment laws the Noteholder and, if applicable, the Issuer shall endeavor to make such filings and obtain such approval in accordance with, and subject to the limitations set forth in, Section 5(h) of the Note Purchase Agreement.

In addition to the adjustments set forth in Section 9(a)(i) above, if and whenever, at any time after the Issuance Date and prior to the Maturity Date, there occurs any share split, share dividend, share combination or reverse share split, recapitalization, or other similar transaction involving the Common Shares (each, a “Share Combination Event,” and such date thereof, the “Share Combination Event Date”) and the lowest VWAP during the period commencing five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding and the five (5) consecutive Trading Days commencing on the Share Combination Event Date (the “Event Market Price”) (provided that, if the Share Combination Event is effective after the close of trading on the Principal Market, then commencing on the next Trading Day which period shall be the “Share Combination Adjustment Period”) is less than the Conversion Price then in effect (after giving effect to the adjustments described in Section 9(a)(i)), then at the close of trading on the Principal Market on the last day of the Share Combination Adjustment Period, the Conversion Price then in effect on such fifth (5th) Trading Day shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the Event Market Price; provided, however, that in no event shall the Conversion Price be reduced, pursuant to this Section 9(a)(ii), to an amount less than $0.50 (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, recapitalizations and similar transactions following January 15, 2025) (the “Floor Price”).

Reclassifications, Reorganizations and Consolidation. If and whenever at any time after the Issuance Date and prior to the Maturity Date, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Issuer other than as described in Section 9(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, binding share exchange, merger of the Issuer with or into any other Person or other entity or acquisition of the Issuer or other combination pursuant to which the Common Shares are converted into or acquired for cash, securities or other property; or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Issuer as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other Person (other than a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer) or other entity or a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Issuer (in any of the foregoing cases, that is not a Change of Control Transaction), the Noteholder , if it has not exercised its right of conversion prior to the effective date of such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share

exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, such amount of cash or the number of shares or other securities or property of the Issuer or of the Person or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement, acquisition, combination or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made or which holders of Common Shares receive pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, as the case may be, that the Noteholder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Noteholder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of its conversion right at the Conversion Price.

Subsequent Equity Sales. If, and whenever at any time after January 31, 2025 and prior to the Maturity Date (such period, the “Adjustment Period”), the Issuer shall (i) issue, (ii) sell, (iii) enter into an agreement to sell, (iv) grant any option to purchase; (v) sell, enter into an agreement to sell, or grant any right to reprice; (vi) otherwise dispose of, or (vi) announce any of the foregoing; or, in accordance with this Section 9(c), is deemed to have issued or sold, any Additional Shares of Common Stock, without consideration or for a consideration per share less than Fair Market Value as of the date of issue thereof (the foregoing, a “Dilutive Issuance”), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced concurrently with the consummation (or, if earlier, the announcement) thereof, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

“CP₂” shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

“CP₁” shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

“A” shall mean the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock (treating for this purpose as outstanding all Common Shares issuable upon exercise of options outstanding immediately prior to such issue or upon conversion or exchange of securities or notes

convertible into Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue);

“B” shall mean the number of Common Shares that would have been issued if such Additional Shares of Common Stock had been issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Issuer (as determined in good faith by the Issuer’s board of directors) in respect of such issue by CP1); and

“C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in such transaction.

For the purpose of this Section 9(c), the following shall be applicable:

Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If, during the Adjustment Period, the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Additional Shares of Common Stock, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise, or exchange of any Additional Shares of Common Stock, or the rate at which any Additional Shares of Common Stock are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 9(a)), then the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Additional Shares of Common Stock provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued, or sold. For purposes of this Section 9(c)(ii)(1), if the terms of any Additional Shares of Common Stock that were outstanding as of January 31, 2025 are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Additional Shares of Common Stock and the Common Shares deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion, or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 9(c)(ii)(1) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.

Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Issuer (the “Primary Security,” and such Additional Shares of Common Stock, the “Secondary Securities” and together with the Primary Security, each a “Unit”), together comprising one integrated

transaction, the aggregate consideration per share with respect to such Primary Security shall be deemed to be the lowest of (x) the purchase price of such Unit, (y) if such Primary Security is an option or security or notes convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, the lowest price per share for which one Common Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Primary Security in accordance with this Section 9(c) and (z) the lowest VWAP of the Common Shares on any Trading Day during the five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately following the consummation (or, if applicable, the announcement) of such Dilutive Issuance (for the avoidance of doubt, if such public announcement, if applicable, is released prior to the opening of the principal market on a Trading Day, such Trading Day shall be the first Trading Day in such five (5) Trading Day period and if this Note is converted on any given Conversion Date during any such period, the Noteholder may elect to earlier end such period (including, solely with respect to such portion of this Note converted on such applicable Conversion Date)). If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount of cash received by the Issuer therefor. If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Issuer will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Issuer for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Issuer is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock (as the case may be). The fair market value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Issuer and the Noteholder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair market value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Issuer and the Noteholder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Issuer.

[Reserved.]

Distribution. If, and whenever at any time after the Issuance Date and prior to the Maturity Date, the Issuer shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), then, in each such case, the Noteholder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Noteholder would have participated therein if the Noteholder had held the number of Common Shares acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion hereof) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution.

Unanticipated Event. On the occurrence of any reclassification of, or other change in, the outstanding Common Shares or any other event which is not a Change of Control Transaction or addressed in Section 9(a), 9(b), 9(c) or 9(e) (each, an “Unanticipated Event”), the parties will, in good faith, make such further adjustments and changes and take all necessary actions, subject to the approval of the Noteholder , so as to ensure that the Noteholder receives, upon the conversion of this Note occurring at any time after the date of the occurrence of the Unanticipated Event, such shares, securities, rights, cash or property that the Noteholder would have received if, immediately prior to the date of such Unanticipated Event, the Noteholder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which the Noteholder would be entitled upon the conversion of this Note into Common Shares.

The adjustments provided for in Sections 9(a), 9(b), 9(c), 9(e) and 9(f) are cumulative and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs.

If at any time a question or dispute arises with respect to the adjustments provided for in Sections 9(a), 9(b), 9(c), 9(e) or 9(f), such question or dispute will be conclusively determined by a firm of nationally recognized chartered professional accountants appointed by the Issuer (who may be the auditors of the Issuer) and acceptable to the Noteholder . Such accountants shall have access to all necessary records of the Issuer and any such determination will be binding upon the Issuer and the Noteholder.

The Issuer shall, from time to time immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or re-adjustment as provided in Sections 9(a), 9(b), 9(c) or 9(f), deliver a certificate of the Issuer to the Noteholder specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the necessary adjustment

and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based, and, if reasonably required by the Noteholder , such certificate and the amount of the adjustment specified therein shall be verified by an opinion of a firm of nationally recognized chartered professional accountants appointed by the Issuer (who may be the auditors of the Issuer) and acceptable to the Noteholder .

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 9(a), 9(b), 9(c), 9(e) or 9(f), if the Noteholder would otherwise be entitled to receive, upon the exercise of its right of conversion, any property (including cash) or securities that would not constitute “prescribed securities” for the purposes of clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Tax Act as it applied immediately before January 1, 2008 (“Ineligible Consideration”), the Noteholder shall not be entitled to receive such Ineligible Consideration and the Issuer or the successor or acquiror, as the case may be, shall have the right (at the sole option of the Issuer or the successor or acquiror, as the case may be) to deliver to the Noteholder “prescribed securities” for the purposes of clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Tax Act as it applied immediately before January 1, 2008 with a market value (as conclusively determined by the board of directors of the Issuer) equal to the market value of such Ineligible Consideration.

NOTEHOLDER CONSENT RIGHT OVER DEBT INCURRENCE.

Indebtedness incurred during any rolling 12-month period that does not exceed $75,000,000 individually or in the aggregate;

Indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business, including trade payables and intercompany debt;

Indebtedness incurred in connection with any Project Financing; or

Indebtedness incurred in connection with any agreement entered into with the Export Development Canada Project Finance and Sustainable Development Technology Canada.

Amendments to 2021 Convertible Note. If, on or after the date of issuance of the 2021 Convertible Note, any term of the 2021 Convertible Note has been or is amended or modified in a manner that is favorable to the holder thereof, the Issuer shall simultaneously offer to amend or modify this Note to reflect similar terms and, if Noteholder accepts such offer, the Issuer shall promptly effect such amendment or modification.

Corporate Existence. Subject to Section 8, until the Specified Date, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done, at its own cost and expense, all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence in accordance with the organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer.

Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. To the extent that it may lawfully do so, the Issuer (i) agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law (wherever or whenever enacted or in force) that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note; and (ii) expressly waives all benefits or advantages of any such law and agrees that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Noteholder by this Note, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Until the Specified Date, the Issuer shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges (including withholding taxes and any penalties, interest and additions to taxes) levied or imposed upon it or its properties except (i) where the failure to effect such payment or discharge is not adverse in any material respect to the Noteholder or (ii) where such taxes are being contested in good faith and by appropriate negotiations or proceedings and with respect to which appropriate reserves have been taken in accordance with applicable accounting standards.

AMENDING THE TERMS OF THIS NOTE. The prior written consent of the Noteholder shall be required for any change, modification, waiver or amendment to this Note. Any change, amendment, modification or waiver so approved shall be binding upon all existing and future holders of this Note.

TRANSFER.

The Issuer shall maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the name and address of the Noteholder and the principal amount of this Note and Interest accrued and unpaid thereon (including as the Principal may be increased as the result of capitalization of Interest in accordance with Section 2(b) of this Note) (the “Registered Note”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Issuer shall treat the Noteholder for all purposes (including the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest hereunder) as the owner hereof notwithstanding notice to the contrary, however, that upon its receipt of a written request to assign, transfer or sell all or part of the Registered Note by the Noteholder to a Permitted Transferee, the Issuer shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 16; provided, however, that the Issuer will not register any assignment, transfer or sale of this Note not made in accordance with Regulation S or pursuant to registration under the 1933 Act or an available exemption therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 15, following conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Noteholder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Issuer unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted (in which event this Note shall be delivered to the Issuer following conversion thereof as contemplated by Section 4(c)) or (B) the Noteholder has provided the Issuer with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Noteholder Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. If the Issuer does not update the Register to record the Principal, Interest converted and/or paid (as the case may be) and the dates of such conversions and/or payments (as the case may be), then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such occurrence on the Business Day immediately prior to such occurrence.

This Note may not be offered, sold, assigned or transferred (including through hedging or derivative transactions) by the Noteholder other than to one or more Permitted Transferees in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S of the 1933 Act or pursuant to registration under the 1933 Act or an available exemption therefrom and by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Any purported assignment to a transferee that is not a Permitted Transferee will be null and void ab initio and unenforceable and the Issuer will not have any obligations to any such transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 7(a) (in the case of 7(a)(v), only in the event of material breaches) and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing and has not been cured or waived, the Noteholder may offer, sell, assign or transfer this Note (including through hedging or derivative transactions) to any person in accordance with applicable law, and the Register shall be deemed updated to reflect such offer, sale, assignment, transfer, hedge or derivative transaction on the date of such offer, sale, assignment, transfer, hedge or derivative transaction.

The Noteholder shall not offer, sell, assign or transfer this Note to any Person that is not a resident of Canada for purposes of the Tax Act and any purported assignment or transfer to such a Person will be null and void ab initio and unenforceable and the Issuer will not have any obligation to any such person (including, without limitation, to make any payment of principal, interest or other amount and to issue any share or other security); provided, however, that an assignment to a Permitted Transferee that is a Permitted Indemnifying Transferee shall be permitted. A Noteholder that was previously a resident of Canada for purposes of the Tax Act that subsequently ceases to be a resident of Canada for purposes of the Tax Act at any particular time shall be required to satisfy the requirements set forth in the definition of Permitted Indemnifying Transferee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 15(c) shall not limit in any manner the offer, sale, assignment or transfer of this Note to any Person that is a resident of Canada for purposes of the Tax Act. This Section 15(c) shall be subject to the terms of Section 15 of the 2024 Secured Note Purchase Agreement, the terms of which shall apply hereto mutatis mutandis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Note Purchase Agreement, each Permitted Transferee that is a Permitted Indemnifying Transferee shall, prior to and as a condition to becoming a holder of this Note, be required to become bound by the terms and provisions of the Tax Indemnity Side Letter (or a similar agreement having the same substance thereof).

REISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE.

Transfer. If this Note is to be transferred in accordance with the terms hereof, the Noteholder shall surrender this Note to the Issuer, whereupon the Issuer will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Noteholder a new Note (in accordance with Section 16(d)), registered as the Noteholder may request, representing the outstanding Principal being transferred by the Noteholder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Note (in accordance with Section 16(d)) to the Noteholder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred. The Noteholder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this Note following conversion or redemption of any portion of this Note, the outstanding Principal represented by this Note may be less than the Principal stated on the face of this Note.

Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Issuer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note (as to which a written certification and the indemnification contemplated below shall suffice as such evidence), and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Noteholder to the Issuer in customary and reasonable form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Noteholder a new Note (in accordance with Section 16(d)) representing the outstanding Principal.

Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Noteholder at the principal office of the Issuer, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with Section 16(d) and in principal amounts of at least $5,000,000) representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Noteholder at the time of such surrender.

Issuance of New Notes. Whenever the Issuer is required to issue a new Note pursuant to the terms of this Note (other than in accordance with Section 7 hereof), such new Note (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note, the Principal remaining outstanding (or in the case of a new Note being issued pursuant to Section 16(a) or Section 16(c), the Principal designated by the Noteholder which, when added to the principal represented by the other new Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the Principal remaining outstanding under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of new Notes), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date, (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (v) shall include in the principal amount thereof accrued and unpaid Interest on this Note from the Issuance Date.

PROJECT FINANCING SUBORDINATION.

On a substantially concurrent basis with the occurrence of the Project Financing Closing Date, each of the Issuer and the Noteholder agree that (i) the obligations of each member of the U.S. Project Finance Group pursuant to the Note Guaranty (the “Applicable Note Guaranty Obligations”) shall automatically, unconditionally, immediately and irrevocably be subordinated to the Note Guaranty provided by such Persons to any Project Lender in connection with a Project Financing and (ii) the Liens on any property of any Note Party that constitutes Project Loan Collateral granted to or held by the Noteholder under or pursuant to any Collateral Document or any other Secured Note Document (such property, the “Applicable Project Collateral”) shall automatically, unconditionally, immediately and irrevocably be subordinated to the Liens on such Project Loan Collateral that are granted to or held by any Project Lender in connection with a Project Financing, in each case, (x) subject to clause (b) below and (y) in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Project Financing Intercreditor Agreement.

The Noteholder expressly agrees that, promptly upon request by the Issuer, the Noteholder will negotiate in good faith the terms of an intercreditor agreement with the Project Lender with respect to the subordination matters described in clause (a) above and use commercially reasonable efforts to agree to the terms of an intercreditor agreement that is acceptable to the Project Lender. The Noteholder further expressly acknowledges and agrees that in the event that the Project Lender and the Noteholder are unable to reach agreement on the terms of an intercreditor arrangement that is acceptable to the Project Lender, the

Applicable Note Guaranty Obligations and the Liens granted to, or held by, the Noteholder on the Applicable Project Collateral, shall in each case be automatically, unconditionally, immediately and irrevocably released. In furtherance of (but without limiting) the foregoing, if the Issuer determines in good faith that the Noteholder and the Project Lender have not reached agreement on the terms of an intercreditor arrangement that is acceptable to the Project Lender and that continued negotiation of such intercreditor arrangement could reasonably be expected to delay or impede the ability of the U.S. Project Finance Group to obtain the applicable Project Financing, the Issuer may deliver written notice of such determination to the Noteholder and unless a Project Financing Intercreditor Agreement is agreed between the Noteholder and the Project Lender within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice, the Applicable Note Guaranty Obligations and the Liens granted to, or held by, the Noteholder on the Applicable Project Collateral, shall in each case be automatically, unconditionally, immediately and irrevocably released on such fifth (5^th) Business Day.

The Noteholder shall take such additional steps, including filing an amendment or termination of any UCC financing statement and/or any PPSA financing statement, as may from time to time reasonably be requested by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Project Lender to evidence such subordination and/or release contemplated by this Section 17.

REMEDIES, CHARACTERIZATIONS, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Noteholder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Issuer to comply with the terms of this Note. No failure on the part of the Noteholder to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Noteholder of any right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. In addition, the exercise of any right or remedy of the Noteholder at law or equity or under this Note or any of the documents shall not be deemed to be an election of Noteholder’s rights or remedies under such documents or at law or equity. The Issuer covenants to the Noteholder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Noteholder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Issuer (or the performance thereof). The Issuer acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Noteholder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Issuer therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Noteholder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to seek specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent

injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The Issuer shall provide all information and documentation to the Noteholder that is reasonably requested by the Noteholder to enable the Noteholder to confirm the Issuer’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

PAYMENT OF COLLECTION, ENFORCEMENT AND OTHER COSTS. If (a) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the Noteholder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Issuer or other proceedings affecting the Noteholder’s rights and involving a claim under this Note, then the Issuer shall pay the costs incurred by the Noteholder for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements. The Issuer expressly acknowledges and agrees that no amounts due under this Note shall be affected, or limited, by the fact that the purchase price paid for this Note was less than the original Principal amount hereof.

CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Issuer and the initial Noteholder and shall not be construed against any such Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Note. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Note instead of just the provision in which they are found. Unless expressly indicated otherwise, all section references are to sections of this Note. Any calculation of accrued and unpaid interest under this Note shall exclude period(s) during which Interest has ceased to accrue pursuant to any term of this Note or the 2024 Secured Note Purchase Agreement (including Section 15 of the 2024 Secured Note Purchase Agreement).

FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Noteholder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

Submission to Dispute Resolution.

In the case of a dispute relating to a Conversion Price, the Optional Redemption Price, the ECF Mandatory Redemption Price or the Forced

Redemption Price (as the case may be) (including a dispute relating to the determination of any of the foregoing), the Issuer or the Noteholder (as the case may be) shall submit the dispute to the other party via electronic mail or otherwise (A) if by the Issuer, within five (5) Business Days after the occurrence of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute or (B) if by the Noteholder within five (5) Business Days after the Noteholder learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If the Noteholder and the Issuer are unable to promptly resolve such dispute relating to such Conversion Price or such Redemption Price (as the case may be), at any time after the second (2nd) Business Day following such initial notice by the Issuer or the Noteholder (as the case may be) of such dispute to the Issuer or the Noteholder (as the case may be), then the Issuer shall select an independent, reputable investment bank acceptable to the Noteholder , acting reasonably, to resolve such dispute and the Issuer shall promptly send written confirmation of such joint selection to the Noteholder .

The Noteholder and the Issuer shall each deliver to such investment bank (A) a copy of the initial dispute submission so delivered in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 21 and (B) written documentation supporting its position with respect to such dispute, in each case, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, by the ^fifth (5th) Business Day immediately following the date on which the Issuer provided notice to the Noteholder of the joint selection of such investment bank (the “Dispute Submission Deadline”) (the documents referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) are collectively referred to herein as the “Required Dispute Documentation”) (it being understood and agreed that if either the Noteholder or the Issuer fails to so deliver all of the Required Dispute Documentation by the Dispute Submission Deadline, then the party who fails to so submit all of the Required Dispute Documentation shall no longer be entitled to (and hereby waives its right to) deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such investment bank with respect to such dispute and such investment bank shall resolve such dispute based solely on the Required Dispute Documentation that was delivered to such investment bank prior to the Dispute Submission Deadline).

Terms and Exercise of Warrants.

Exercise Price. Each Warrant shall entitle the Holder thereof, subject to the provisions of this Warrant Certificate, to purchase from the Company the number of Common Shares stated herein, at the price of $[●] per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 2 hereof and in the last sentence of this Section 1.1. The term “Exercise Price” as used in this Warrant Certificate shall mean the price per share described in the prior sentence at which Common Shares may be purchased at the time a Warrant is exercised. The Company in its sole discretion may lower the Exercise Price at any time prior to the Expiry Time (as defined below) for a period of not less than fifteen (15) Business Days (unless otherwise required by the SEC, any national securities exchange on which the Warrants are listed or Applicable Law); provided that the Company shall provide at least five days’ prior written notice of such reduction to Holders of the Warrants; and provided further, that any such reduction shall be identical among all of the Warrants.

Duration of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) commencing on the date hereof and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on [●], 2027 (the “Expiry Time”). Each Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiry Time shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Warrant Certificate shall cease at the Expiry Time. The Company in its sole discretion may extend the duration of the Warrants by delaying the Expiry Time; provided that the Company shall provide at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of any such extension to Holders of the Warrants and, provided further that any such extension shall be identical in duration among all the Warrants.

Exercise of Warrants.

Payment. Subject to the provisions of this Warrant Certificate, a Warrant may be exercised by the Holder thereof by delivering to the Company at its principal office (i) this definitive Warrant Certificate evidencing the Warrants to be exercised, or, in the case of a Warrant represented by a book-entry position, the Warrants to be exercised (the “Book-Entry Warrants”) on the records of the applicable warrant agent (the “Agent”) to an account of the Company or its agent at the Agent designated for such purposes in writing by the Company to the Holder from time to time, (ii) a subscription form (“Subscription Form”) for any Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant, properly completed and executed by the Holder on the reverse of this definitive Warrant Certificate or, in the case of a Book-Entry Warrant, properly delivered by the Holder in accordance with the Agent’s procedures, and (iii) the payment in full of the Exercise Price for each Common Share as to which

the Warrant is exercised and any and all applicable taxes due in connection with the exercise of the Warrant, the exchange of the Warrant for the Common Shares and the issuance of such Common Shares, in lawful money of the United States, in good certified check or good bank draft payable to the order of the Company, or by transmitting same day payable funds in the lawful money of the United States by wire to such account as the Company shall direct to the Holder. Any Warrant Certificate so surrendered shall be deemed to be surrendered only upon delivery thereof to the Company at its principal office set forth herein in the manner provided in Section 12 (or to such other address as the Company may notify the Holder).

Issuance of Common Shares on Exercise. As soon as practicable (and in any event within 5 Business Days) after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Exercise Price (such date, the “Common Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall issue to the Holder of such Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of Common Shares to which it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it on the register of shareholders of the Company, and if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned Warrant Certificate, as applicable, for the number of Common Shares as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised.

Payment Due Upon Failure to Deliver Common Shares on Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Common Shares subject to a Subscription Form by the Common Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Common Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Shares on the date of the applicable Subscription Form), $5 per Trading Day (increasing to $10 per Trading Day on the third Trading Day after the Common Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Common Share Delivery Date until such Common Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise.

Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Common Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Common Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.3.2. above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Common Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Common Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise of a Warrant (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Common Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B)

at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Common Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Common Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Share having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

Valid Issuance. All Common Shares issued upon the proper exercise of a Warrant in conformity with this Warrant Certificate shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

Date of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for Common Shares is issued and who is registered in the register of shareholders of the Company shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Common Shares on the date on which the Warrant, or book-entry position representing such Warrant, was surrendered and payment of the Exercise Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate in the case of a certificated Warrant, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the register of shareholders of the Company or book-entry system of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Common Shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the share transfer books or book-entry system are open.

Market Regulation. The Company shall only issue Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Warrant Certificate to the extent the issuance of such Common Shares would not exceed the aggregate number of Common Shares that the Company may issue without violating the rules or regulations of any Eligible Market on which the Common Shares are then listed (including without limitation Section 312.03(c) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual), except that such limitation shall not

apply in the event that the Company (i) obtains the approval of its shareholders as required by the applicable rules of any Eligible Market on which the Common Shares are then listed for issuances of Common Shares in excess of such amount or (ii) obtains a written opinion from counsel to the Company that such approval is not required. In the event that shareholder approval is required with respect to the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate (or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Warrant Certificate) under the rules or regulations of any Eligible Market on which the Common Shares are then listed, as contemplated by clause (i) above, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain such approval. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s non-compliance with the limitations contained in this Section 1.3.5 shall not constitute a breach of this Warrant Certificate by the Company, and the Company shall not have any liability under this Warrant Certificate resulting therefrom.

Antitrust and Foreign Investment Laws. The Company shall only issue Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Warrant Certificate to the extent the issuance of such Common Shares would not exceed the aggregate number of Common Shares that the Company may issue without violating the U.S. Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) or any antitrust laws of other jurisdictions or any foreign investment laws applicable in connection with the issuance of the Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate, except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that (i) the Holder (and, if applicable, the Company) obtains the necessary regulatory approvals as required by any applicable antitrust laws or foreign investment laws or (ii) the Holder (and, if applicable, the Company) obtains a written opinion from counsel to the Holder (or, in the case of the Company, counsel to the Company) that such approval(s) are not required. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s non-compliance with the limitations contained in this Section 1.3.8 shall not constitute a breach of this Warrant Certificate by the Company, and the Company shall not have any liability under this Warrant Certificate or otherwise resulting therefrom, but in the event that exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate requires any filing or approval under the HSR Act or any applicable antitrust laws of any other jurisdiction and any foreign investment laws the Holder and, if applicable, the Company shall endeavor to make such filings and obtain such approval in accordance with, and subject to the following limitations:

The Company and the Holder acknowledge that one or more filings under the HSR Act or antitrust laws of other jurisdictions and/or foreign investment laws may be necessary in connection with the issuance of the Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate. The Holder will promptly notify the Company if any such filing is required on the part of the Holder or the Company. The Company, the

Holder and any other applicable Holder Affiliate will use reasonable best efforts to cooperate in making or causing to be made all applications and filings under the HSR Act or any antitrust laws of other jurisdictions or any foreign investment laws required in connection with the issuance of the Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate held by the Holder or any Holder Affiliate in a timely manner and as required by the law of the applicable jurisdiction; provided, that, notwithstanding anything in this Warrant Certificate to the contrary, the Company shall not have any responsibility or liability for failure of the Holder or any of its Affiliates to comply with any Applicable Law. For as long as this Warrant Certificate is outstanding, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable provide (no more than four (4) times per calendar year) such information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as the Holder may reasonably request in order to determine what antitrust or foreign investment requirements may exist with respect to any potential exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate. Promptly upon request by the Holder, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to make all such filings and obtain all approvals and clearances as required under applicable antitrust or foreign investment laws in connection with the issuance of the Common Shares and investment in the Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate.

Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant Certificate to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that: (i) the Company shall not have any obligation to litigate or contest any administrative or judicial action or proceeding or any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent; and (ii) the Company shall not be under any obligation to make proposals, execute or carry out agreements, enter into consent decrees or submit to orders providing for (A) the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition or holding separate (through the establishment of a trust or otherwise) of any assets or categories of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates, (B) the imposition of any limitation or regulation on the ability of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates to freely conduct their business or own such assets or (C) the holding separate of the Common Shares or any limitation or regulation on the ability of the Holder or any of its Affiliates to exercise full rights of ownership of the Common Shares. The Company and the Holder will cooperate, provide all necessary information, and keep each other fully apprised with respect to such filing and regulatory processes. The Holder shall be

responsible for the payment of the filing fees associated with any such applications or filings.

Adjustments.

If and whenever, at any time prior to the Expiry Time, the Company shall: (i) subdivide or re-divide its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares; (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares; (iii) issue options, rights, warrants or similar securities to the holders of all of the outstanding Common Shares; or (iv) issue Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares to the holders of all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution; the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants on the date of the subdivision, re-division, reduction, combination or consolidation or on the record date for the issue of options, rights, warrants or similar securities or on the record date for the issue of Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares by way of a dividend or distribution, as the case may be, shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Common Shares or other securities of the Company which it would have owned or been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described in this Section 2.1 had the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event or any record date with respect thereto. Any adjustments made pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall become effective immediately after the effective time of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.

If and whenever at any time prior to the Expiry Time, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Company (other than as described in Section 2.1) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, binding share exchange, spin off, tender offer, exchange offer, merger of the Company with or into any other Person or other entity or acquisition of the Company or other combination pursuant to which the Common Shares are converted into or acquired for cash, securities or other property; or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other Person (other than a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) or other entity or a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the Holder, if it has not exercised its Warrants prior to the effective date of such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, spin off, tender offer, exchange offer, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, upon the exercise of such Warrants thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, such amount of cash or the number of shares or other securities or property of the Company or of the Person or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, spin off, tender offer, exchange offer, acquisition, combination or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made or which holders of Common Shares receive pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, as the case may be, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, spin off, tender offer, exchange offer, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of its Warrants at the Exercise Price.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a transaction described in clauses (i)-(iii) of the definition of Change of Control Transaction or as described in the definition of “Fundamental Transaction” set forth in those certain warrants of the Company issued on January 16, 2025 (the “2025 Warrants”) (such definition of “Fundamental Transaction” in the 2025 Warrants as described on the date of issuance of the 2025 Warrants and not subject to amendment), regardless of whether any 2025 Warrants remain outstanding during prior to the Expiry Time (any of the foregoing, “Fundamental Transaction”), the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company’s control, including not approved by the Company’s board of directors, the Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity, as of the date of consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Shares of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Shares are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Common Shares of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Shares will be deemed to have received Common Shares of the Successor Entity (which Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Expiry Time, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (ii) the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 2.3 and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Expiry Time and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made

by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant Certificate pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for the Warrant evidenced by this Warrant Certificate a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant Certificate which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Common Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the Common Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant Certificate referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant Certificate with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

In addition to the adjustments set forth in Section 2.1 above, if at any time and from time to time on or after the Issue Date there occurs any share split, share dividend, share combination or reverse share split, recapitalization, or other similar transaction involving the Common Shares (each, a “Share Combination Event,” and such date thereof, the “Share Combination Event Date”) and the lowest VWAP during the period commencing five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding and the five (5) consecutive Trading Days commencing on the Share Combination Event Date (the “Event Market Price”) (provided if the Share Combination Event is effective after the close of trading on the Principal Market, then commencing on the next Trading Day which period shall be the “Share Combination Adjustment Period”) is less than the Exercise Price then in effect (after giving effect to the adjustment in Section 2.1 above), then at the close of trading on the Principal Market on the last day of the Share Combination Adjustment Period, the Exercise Price then in effect on such fifth (5th) Trading Day shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the Event Market Price; provided, however, that in no event shall the Exercise Price be reduced, pursuant to this Section 2.4, to an amount less than $0.50 (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, recapitalizations and similar transactions following January 15, 2025) (the “Floor Price”).

If, and whenever, at any time prior to the Expiry Time, the Company shall (i) issue, (ii) sell, (iii) enter into an agreement to sell, (iv) grant any option to purchase; (v) sell, enter into an agreement to sell, or grant any right to reprice; (vi) otherwise dispose of, or (vi) announce any of the foregoing; or, in accordance with this Section 2.5, is deemed to have issued or sold, any Additional Shares of Common Stock, without consideration or for a consideration per share less than Fair Market Value as of the date of issue thereof (the foregoing, a “Dilutive Issuance”), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently with the consummation (or, if earlier, the announcement) thereof, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

For the purpose of this Section 2.5, the following shall be applicable:

If, during the Exercise Period, the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Additional Shares of Common Stock, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise, or exchange of any Additional Shares of Common Stock, or the rate at which any Additional Shares of Common Stock are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in 2.1), then the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Additional Shares of Common Stock provided for such increased or decreased

purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued, or sold. For purposes of this Section 2.5.2.1, if the terms of any Additional Shares of Common Stock that were outstanding as of the date of issuance of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Additional Shares of Common Stock and the Common Shares deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion, or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.5.2.1 shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (the “Primary Security,” and such Additional Shares of Common Stock, the “Secondary Securities” and together with the Primary Security, each a “Unit”), together comprising one integrated transaction, the aggregate consideration per share with respect to such Primary Security shall be deemed to be the lowest of (x) the purchase price of such Unit, (y) if such Primary Security is an option or security or notes convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, the lowest price per share for which one Common Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Primary Security in accordance with this Section 2.5 and (z) the lowest VWAP of the Common Shares on any Trading Day during the five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately following the consummation (or, if applicable, the announcement) of such Dilutive Issuance (for the avoidance of doubt, if such public announcement, if applicable, is released prior to the opening of the principal market on a Trading Day, such Trading Day shall be the first Trading Day in such five (5) Trading Day period and if the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are exercised on any given date during any such period, the Holder may elect to earlier end such period (including, solely with respect to such portion of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate exercised on such date)). If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount of cash received by the Company therefor. If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued to

the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock (as the case may be). The fair market value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair market value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

[RESERVED.]

During such time as this Warrant Certificate is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Common Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of the Warrant evidenced by this Warrant Certificate (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution.

On the occurrence of any reclassification of, or other change in, the outstanding Common Shares or any other event or addressed in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.7 (each, an “Unanticipated Event”), the parties will, in good faith, make such further adjustments and changes and take all necessary actions, subject to the approval of the Holder, so as to ensure that the Holder receives, upon the exercise of a Warrant occurring at any time after the date of the occurrence of the Unanticipated Event, such shares, securities, rights, cash or property that the Holder would have received if, immediately prior to the date of such Unanticipated Event, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which the Holder would be entitled upon the exercise of a Warrant for Common Shares.

The adjustments provided for in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 and 2.7 are cumulative and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs.

If at any time a question or dispute arises with respect to the adjustments provided for in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.7, such question or dispute will be conclusively determined by a firm of nationally recognized chartered professional accountants appointed by the Company (who may be the auditors of the Company) and acceptable to the Holder. Such accountants shall have access to all necessary records of the Company and any such determination will be binding upon the Company and the Holder.

The Company shall, from time to time immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or re-adjustment as provided in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.7, deliver a certificate of the Company to the Holder specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the necessary adjustment (or, in the case of Section 2.7, entitlement to cash or other property upon conversion) and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based, and, if reasonably required by the Holder, such certificate and the amount of the adjustment specified therein shall be verified by an opinion of a firm of nationally recognized chartered professional accountants appointed by the Company (who may be the auditors of the Company) and acceptable to the Holder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.7, if the Holder would otherwise be entitled to receive, upon the exercise of its right of conversion, any property (including cash) or securities that would not constitute “prescribed securities” for the purposes of clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Tax Act as it applied immediately before January 1, 2008 (“Ineligible Consideration”), the Holder shall not be entitled to receive such Ineligible Consideration and the Company or the successor or acquiror, as the case may be, shall have the right (at the sole option of the Company or the successor or acquiror, as the case may be) to deliver to the Holder “prescribed securities” for the purposes of clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Tax Act as it applied immediately before January 1, 2008 with a market value (as conclusively determined by the board of directors of the Company) equal to the market value of such Ineligible Consideration.

No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant Certificate to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional Common Shares upon the exercise of Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2, the Holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, upon such exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Common Shares to be issued to such holder.

Form of Warrant. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2, and Warrants issued after such adjustment may state the same Exercise Price and the same number of shares as is stated in the Warrants initially issued pursuant to this Warrant Certificate; provided, however, that the Company may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of Warrant that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any Warrant thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

To the extent any amendment or modification is made to Section 8 of the Note, the Company shall simultaneously amend or modify this Warrant Certificate to reflect similar terms.

Register and Transferability.

The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain a register (the “Register”) for the registration in book-entry form of the original issuance of the Warrants and the registration of transfer of any Warrants. Upon the initial issuance of the Warrants in book-entry form, the Agent shall issue and register the Warrants in the names of the respective holders thereof in such denominations and otherwise in accordance with instructions delivered to the Agent by the Company. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company shall treat the Holder for all purposes as the owner hereof notwithstanding notice to the contrary, however, that upon its receipt of a written request to assign, transfer or sell all or part of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate by the Holder as set forth in Section 3.2, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register

and issue a new certificate in respect of the remaining balance of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate; provided, however, that the Company will not register any assignment, transfer or sale of any Warrants not made in accordance with Regulation S or pursuant to registration under the 1933 Act or an available exemption therefrom.

The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may not be offered, sold, assigned or transferred (including through hedging or derivative transactions) by a Holder other than in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an available exemption therefrom and by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may not be offered, sold, assigned or transferred (including through hedging or derivative transactions) by a Holder until such Holder provides evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which, in the sole discretion of the Company (such discretion not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), may include an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) that such offer, sale, pledge, transfer, or other disposition will not violate any applicable federal or state securities laws. The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon satisfaction of the requirements in the immediately preceding sentence and surrender of this Warrant Certificate at the office of the Agent designated for such purpose, together with a Transfer Form properly completed and duly executed by a Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon compliance satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 3.2, surrender by the Holder of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the portion of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate not so assigned, and this Warrant Certificate shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant Certificate to the Company unless the Holder has assigned the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant Certificate to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers a Transfer Form to the Company assigning the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate in full. The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Common Shares without having a new Warrant Certificate issued.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3, following exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant Certificate to the Company unless (A) all Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate are being exercised (in which event this Warrant Certificate shall be delivered to the Company following exercise thereof as contemplated by Section 1.3) or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice requesting reissuance of this Warrant Certificate upon physical surrender of this Warrant Certificate. If the Company does not update the Register to record the exercise of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate and the dates of such exercise and/or payments (as the case may be), then the

Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such occurrence on the Business Day immediately prior to such occurrence.

The Company may appoint an Agent for the purpose of maintaining the Register, issuing the Common Shares or other securities then issuable upon the exercise of the rights under the Warrants, exchanging the Warrants, replacing the Warrants or conducting related activities.

No Rights as Shareholder. A Warrant does not entitle the Holder thereof to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of the meetings of shareholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

No Obligation to Purchase. Nothing herein contained or done pursuant hereto shall obligate the Holder to subscribe for, or the Company to issue, any shares except those shares in respect of which the Holder shall have exercised its right to purchase hereunder in the manner provided herein.

U.S. Legend. Certificates representing Common Shares issued pursuant to the Subscription Form, and all certificates issued in exchange thereof or in substitution therefor, until such time as it is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or applicable United States state laws and regulations, shall bear the following legend:

Covenants:

So long as any Warrants evidenced hereby remain outstanding, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued Common Shares that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this Warrant Certificate.

The Company covenants and agrees that until the Expiry Time, while the Warrants (or remaining portion thereof) shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to remain listed on the Principal Market, and to maintain its status as a “reporting issuer” not in default of the requirements of the applicable securities laws in the jurisdictions in which the Company is currently a reporting issuer, provided that this covenant shall not prevent the Company from completing any transaction which would result in the Company to ceasing to be listed on the Principal Market or ceasing to be a reporting issuer, respectively, so long as the holders of the Common Shares receive securities of an entity which is listed on an Eligible Market or cash or the holders of the Common Shares have approved the transaction in accordance with the requirements of applicable corporate laws and the rules and policies of the Principal Market.

The Company agrees to perform, execute, acknowledge, and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged, and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments, and assurances as may reasonably be required for the carrying out or performing of the provisions of this Warrant Certificate.

In the event of a Change of Control Transaction in which the consideration to be received by the Company’s shareholders consists of cash and/or marketable securities, if this Warrant Certificate is outstanding upon the consummation of such Change of Control Transaction then if the Fair Market Value of one Common Share is greater than the then applicable Exercise Price, this Warrant Certificate may be exercised at the election of the Holder on a net exercise issue

basis as of immediately prior to such Change of Control Transaction.

The covenants of the Company referenced in Sections 9(c), (d), (e) and (f) of the Note are incorporated herein by reference. Such covenants of the Company shall not merge in or be prejudiced by and shall survive the redemption of the Note and shall continue in full force and effect so long as the Warrants are outstanding.

Upon request of the Holder, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to issue to the Holder Book-Entry Warrants settled through the Agent in lieu of this Warrant Certificate.

Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant Certificate. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant Certificate (as to which a written certification and the indemnification contemplated below shall suffice as such evidence), and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary and reasonable form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant Certificate, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant Certificate representing the outstanding number of Warrants.

Payment of Collection, Enforcement and Other Costs. If (a) this Warrant Certificate is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Warrant Certificate or to enforce the provisions of this Warrant Certificate or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Company or other proceedings affecting the Holder’s rights and involving a claim under this Warrant Certificate, then the Company shall pay the costs incurred by the Holder for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

Construction; Headings. This Warrant Certificate shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the initial Holder and shall not be construed against any such Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Warrant Certificate are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Warrant Certificate. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Warrant Certificate instead of just the provision in which they are found. Unless expressly indicated otherwise, all section references are to sections of this Warrant Certificate.

Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor

shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.

Dispute Resolution.

Submission to Dispute Resolution.

In the case of a dispute relating to the Exercise Price, the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) shall submit the dispute to the other party via electronic mail or otherwise (A) if by the Company, within five (5) Business Days after the occurrence of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute or (B) if by the Holder within five (5) Business Days after the Holder learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If the Holder and the Company are unable to promptly resolve such dispute relating to such Exercise Price at any time after the second (2nd) Business Day following such initial notice by the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) of such dispute to the Company or the Holder (as the case may be), then the Company shall select an independent, reputable investment bank acceptable to the Holder, acting reasonably, to resolve such dispute and the Company shall promptly send written confirmation of such joint selection to the Holder.

The Holder and the Company shall each deliver to such investment bank (A) a copy of the initial dispute submission so delivered in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 12.1 and (B) written documentation supporting its position with respect to such dispute, in each case, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, by the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately following the date on which the Company provided notice to the Holder of the joint selection of such investment bank (the “Dispute Submission Deadline”) (the documents referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) are collectively referred to herein as the “Required Dispute Documentation”) (it being understood and agreed that if either the Holder or the Company fails to so deliver all of the Required Dispute Documentation by the Dispute Submission Deadline, then the party who fails to so submit all of the Required Dispute Documentation shall no longer be entitled to (and hereby waives its right to) deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such investment bank with respect to such dispute and such investment bank shall resolve such dispute based solely on the Required Dispute Documentation that was delivered to such investment bank prior to the Dispute Submission Deadline). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both the Company and the Holder or otherwise requested by such investment bank, neither the Company nor the Holder shall be entitled to deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such investment bank in connection with such dispute (other than the Required Dispute Documentation). Any and all communications between the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder, on the other hand, and such

investment bank shall be made in writing and a copy provided simultaneously to the Company and the Holder and no meeting between such investment bank and the Company or the Holder shall take place unless each of the Company and the Holder are in attendance.

The Company and the Holder shall cause such investment bank to determine the resolution of such dispute and notify the Company and the Holder of such resolution no later than ten (10) Business Days immediately following the Dispute Submission Deadline. The fees and expenses of such investment bank shall be shared equally between the Company and the Holder, and such investment bank’s resolution of such dispute shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error.

Notices; Currency; Payments.

Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Warrant Certificate must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt by the recipient, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt by the recipient, when sent by electronic mail (provided that such sent email is kept on file (whether electronically or otherwise) by the sending party and the sending party does not receive an automatically generated message from the recipient’s email server that such e-mail could not be delivered to such recipient); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

Calculation of Time. When computing any time period in this Warrant Certificate, the following rules shall apply:

the day marking the commencement of the time period shall be excluded but the day of the deadline or expiry of the time period shall be included;

for time periods measured in Business Days, any day that is not a Business Day shall be excluded in the calculation of the time period; and, if the day of the deadline or expiry of the time period falls on a day which is not a Business Day, the deadline or time period shall be extended to the next following Business Day;

for time periods measured in Trading Days, any day that is not a Trading Day shall be excluded in the calculation of the time period; and, if the day of the deadline or expiry of the time period falls on a day which is not a Trading Day, the deadline or time period shall be extended to the next following Trading Day;

if the end date of any deadline or time period in this Warrant Certificate refers to a specific calendar date and that date is not a Business Day, the deadline or time period shall be extended to the next Business Day following the specific calendar date; and

when used in this Warrant Certificate the term “month” shall mean a calendar month.

Currency. Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires all dollar amounts referred to in this Warrant Certificate are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”).

Payments. Whenever any payment of cash is to be made pursuant to this Warrant Certificate, unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, such payment shall be made in U.S Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Warrant Certificate is due on any day which is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day.

Waiver of Notice. To the extent permitted by law, the Company hereby irrevocably waives demand, notice, presentment, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Warrant Certificate and the Registration Rights Agreement.

Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant Certificate shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address

for such notices to it under this Warrant Certificate and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude a Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to a Holder or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of a Holder. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO THIS WARRANT CERTIFICATE IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT: (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (C) IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS WARRANT CERTIFICATE BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH.

Severability. If any provision of this Warrant Certificate is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Warrant Certificate so long as this Warrant Certificate as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).
