2.7      Automatic Exchange on Liquidation of Pure

  (a)

Pure will give the Shareholders written notice of each of the following events at the time set forth below:

       
  (i)

in the event of any determination by the Board of Directors of Pure to institute voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up proceedings with respect to Pure or to effect any other distribution of assets of Pure among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, at least 60 days prior to the proposed effective date of such liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or other distribution; and

       
  (ii)

as soon as practicable following the earlier of (A) receipt by Pure of notice of, and (B) Pure otherwise becoming aware of, any threatened or instituted claim, suit, petition or other proceedings with respect to the involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Pure or to effect any other distribution of assets of Pure among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, in each case where Pure has failed to contest in good faith any such proceeding commenced in respect of Pure within 30 days of becoming aware thereof.

       
 

Any event contemplated in (i) or (ii) above shall be referred to as a "Liquidation Event".

       
  (b)

In order that the Shareholders will be able to participate on a pro rata basis with the holders of Parent Common Shares in the distribution of assets of Pure in connection with a Liquidation Event, on the fifth Business Day prior to the effective date (the ‘‘Liquidation Event Effective Date’’) of a Liquidation Event all of the then outstanding Exchangeable Shares shall be automatically exchanged for Parent Common Shares (“Automatic Exchange Right). To effect such automatic exchange, Pure shall purchase on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date each Exchangeable Share then outstanding and held by the Shareholders, and the Shareholders shall sell the Exchangeable Shares held by it at such time, for a purchase price per share equal to (a) the Current Market Value of a Parent Common Share determined on the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, which shall be satisfied in full by Pure delivering to the Shareholders one Parent Common Share, and (b) to the extent not paid by Pure Exchangeco, an additional amount equal to and in satisfaction of the full amount of all declared and unpaid dividends on each such Exchangeable Share held by such holder on any dividend record date which occurred prior to the date of the exchange.



- 5 -

  (c)

On the fifth Business Day prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, the closing of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated by the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Parent Common Shares shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Shareholders shall be deemed to have transferred to Pure all of the its right, title and interest in and to the Shareholders’ Exchangeable Shares, any right of the Shareholders to receive declared and unpaid dividends from Pure Exchangeco shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged and the Shareholders shall cease to be a holder of such Exchangeable Shares and Pure shall deliver to the Shareholders the Parent Common Shares issuable upon the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Parent Common Shares and on the applicable payment date shall deliver to the Shareholders a cheque for the balance, if any, of the total purchase price for such Exchangeable Shares without interest but less any amounts withheld pursuant to subsection 2.8. Concurrently with the Shareholders ceasing to be a holder of Exchangeable Shares, the Shareholders shall be considered and deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the Parent Common Shares delivered pursuant to the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for Parent Common Shares and the certificates held by the Shareholders previously representing the Exchangeable Shares exchanged by the Shareholders with Pure pursuant to such automatic exchange shall thereafter be deemed to represent Parent Common Shares delivered to the Shareholders by Pure pursuant to such automatic exchange. Upon the request of the Shareholders and the surrender of Exchangeable Share certificates duly endorsed in blank and accompanied by such instruments of transfer as Pure may reasonably require, Pure shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Shareholders certificates representing Parent Common Shares of which the Shareholders is the holder.

2.8      Withholding Rights. Pure and Pure Exchangeco shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement to any holder of Exchangeable Shares or Parent Common Shares such amounts as Pure, or Pure Exchangeco is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Income Tax Act (Canada), the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any provision of provincial, state, local or foreign tax law, in each case as amended or succeeded. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the holder of the shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. To the extent that the amount so required to be deducted or withheld from any payment to a holder exceeds the cash portion of the consideration otherwise payable to the holder, Pure and Pure Exchangeco are hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of such portion of the consideration as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to Pure or Pure Exchangeco, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and Pure and Pure Exchangeco, as the context dictates, shall notify the holder thereof and remit to such holder any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale.
