Section 5.2.                                   Representations and Warranties of Lenders

Each of the Lenders, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Borrowers as follows:

(a)                                  Authorization. Such Lender is an individual, corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, and each Lender has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and has duly authorized, executed and delivered the same. This Agreement, when executed and delivered by a Lender, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of such Lender, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of a specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

(b)                                 Disclosure of Information. Each Lender has had an opportunity to discuss the Borrowers’ business, management, financial affairs (including the Restatement) and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Debentures with the Borrowers’ management and has had an opportunity to review the Borrowers’ facilities. Each Lender understands that such discussions, as well as any other written information delivered by the Borrowers to such Lender, were intended to describe the aspects of the Borrowers’ business which it believes to be material. Each Lender has had all of its questions related to the Borrowers and the purchase of Debentures answered by the Borrowers.

(c)                                  Experience; Speculative Nature of Investment. Each Lender has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Borrowers so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Borrowers and has the capacity to protect its own interests. Each Lender acknowledges that its investment in the Borrowers is highly speculative and entails a substantial degree of risk and such Lender is in a position to lose the entire amount of such investment.

(d)                                 Investment. The Lenders are acquiring the Debentures and Warrants (if and when issued) for investment for their own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. By executing this Agreement, each Lender further represents that it does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Debentures, Warrants or Common Shares.

(e)                                  Restricted Securities. The Lenders understand that the Debentures, Warrants (if and when issued) and Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as contemplated hereby have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or qualified for distribution in any province or territory of Canada and are issued pursuant to a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and

the registration and prospectus requirements of the Securities Act (Ontario), the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Lenders’ representations as expressed herein. Each Lender is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Section 1.1 of Rule 45-501 of the Ontario Securities Commission and each Lender, which is resident in the United States, is also an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. If any Lender is resident in or otherwise subject to the securities laws of a jurisdiction other than the Province of Ontario or the United States, the issuance by the Corporation, and the acquisition by such Lender, of the Debentures, Warrants (if and when acquired) and Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as contemplated by this Agreement is in full compliance with all applicable securities laws, statutes, regulations, policy statements and orders in such jurisdiction and no authorization, consent of, or filing with or notice to, any person is required in connection therewith.

(f)                                    Legends. The Lenders understand that the Debentures, Warrants (if and when issued) and Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (each, for purposes of this paragraph, a security) may bear the following legend and any other legends that may be required by applicable securities law and stock exchange rules:

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAS BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE BROWN RAYSMAN MILLSTEIN FELDER & STEINER LLP OR OTHER COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION) IN A FORM REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION AND ITS COUNSEL THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.

(g)                                 No Public Market. The Lenders understand that no public market now exists for any of the Debentures or Warrants issued by the Borrowers and that the Borrowers have made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Corporation’s securities except to the extent made pursuant to Section 6.2(c).

Section 5.3.                                   Survival of Representations and Warranties

The statements made in any certificate hereafter delivered by the Corporation or any of the Subsidiaries to the Lenders shall be deemed to constitute representations and warranties made by the party delivering the same. The Borrowers covenant that the representations and warranties made by them in this Article 5 shall be true and correct on each day that any of the Obligations remain outstanding, with the same effect as if such representations and warranties had been made and given on and as of such day, notwithstanding any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of each Lender or its counsel and notwithstanding any foreclosure or enforcement pursuant to any Security Documents; except that if any such representation and

warranty is specifically given as of the date hereof or in respect of a particular date or particular period of time and relates only to such date or period of time, then such representation and warranty shall continue to be given as at such date or for such period of time.

The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that, in entering into this Agreement and in delivering the schedules and such other documents, they have not in any way relied, and will not in any way rely, upon any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, statements, promises, information, arrangements or understandings, express or implied, not specifically referenced or set forth in this Agreement or in such schedules or such other documents.

The Borrowers agree to jointly and severally indemnify each Lender from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,

Section 9.17.                             Successors, Assigns and Participation, etc.

(a)                                  The Corporation shall not assign or transfer all or any part of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Instrument, or permit or cause any Subsidiary to assign or transfer all or any part of its rights or obligations under any Instrument without the prior written consent of Phoenix on behalf of the Lenders.

(b)                                 Each Lender may assign or grant participations in its Debentures or in all or part of its rights in respect of this Agreement, the Obligations and the Instruments and have its corresponding obligations hereunder assumed by any other Person without the consent of the Borrowers, on a private sale basis to other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and within the meaning of Section 1.1 of Rule 45-501 of the Ontario Securities Commission. An assignment under this Section 9.17 shall become effective when the Borrowers have been notified thereof by the applicable Lender and has received from the assignee an undertaking to be bound by this Agreement and the other Security Documents and to perform the obligations, if any, assumed by it. Any such assignee shall be treated as a party to this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Security Documents and shall be entitled to the full benefit hereof and thereof and shall be subject to the obligations of the applicable Lender to the same extent as if it were an original party in respect of the rights assigned to it and obligations assumed by it and such Lender shall be released and discharged accordingly. Any Person to whom a Lender grants participations in all or part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Instruments shall not have any rights under this Agreement and the Instruments in respect of its participation interest, and shall only have, as against such Lender, as grantor, those rights and obligations in respect of such participation interest as are set forth in the agreement or agreements made between such Lender and such participant.

Section 9.18.                             Amendments

This Agreement may only be amended by a written agreement signed by the Borrowers and Phoenix, on behalf of the Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any action to impose additional obligations on the Lenders, or to amend Section 8.6 hereof or any other provision hereof or in any of the Security Documents which would affect the pro rata repayment, as among the Lenders, of the Obligations or the pro rata disbursement, as among the Lenders, of moneys or other proceeds received in the enforcement of the security interests created hereby, shall require the consent of each Lender whose interests are adversely affected by such action.

Section 9.19.                             Consent of Phoenix Enterprises LLC and Phoenix as Agent for the Existing Debenture Holders;

(a)                                  Phoenix Enterprises LLC, for itself and as agent for the Existing Debenture Holders (other than the December 2004 Debenture Holders) under (i) Section 9.20 of the November 2002 Debenture Agreement, (ii) Section 9.21 of the December 2002 Debenture Agreement, (iii) Section 9.21 of the April 2003 Debenture Agreement, and (iv) Section 9.21 of the Second April 2003 Debenture Agreement, hereby acknowledges, agrees and gives its consent to the Borrowers’ entering into and performing their obligations under this Agreement under the terms and conditions contained herein and the execution, delivery and performance of the Security Documents and, if applicable, the issue and sale of the Warrants to the Lenders.

(a)                                  Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Phoenix to (A) hold the Secured Property for its own benefit and the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, and (B) be its attorney in its name and on its behalf to exercise such rights or powers granted to Phoenix or the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to the extent and on the terms specifically provided herein and therein, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, Phoenix shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the holders of 51% of the aggregate principal amount of Debentures outstanding (the “Requisite Lenders”), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that Phoenix shall not be required to take any action which exposes Phoenix to liability in such capacity, which could result in Phoenix incurring any costs and expenses or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, Phoenix and its members, officers, agents, and employees shall in no event be liable to the Lenders or to any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Phoenix pursuant to instructions received by it from the Requisite Lenders or in reliance upon the advice of counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any action to impose additional obligations on the Lenders, or to amend Section 8.6 hereof or any other provision hereof or in any of the Security Documents which would affect the pro rata repayment, as among the Lenders, of the Obligations or the pro rata disbursement, as among the Lenders, of moneys or other proceeds received in the enforcement of the security interests created hereby, shall require the consent of each Lender whose interests are adversely affected by such action.

(b)                                 The Borrowers shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other document or other advice, statement or instruction provided to it by Phoenix pursuant to this Agreement, and the Borrowers shall generally be entitled to deal with Phoenix with respect to

matters under this Agreement which Phoenix is authorized to deal with without any obligation whatsoever to satisfy itself as to the authority of Phoenix to act on behalf of the Lenders and without any liability whatsoever to the Lenders for relying upon any certificate, notice or other document or other advice, statement or instruction provided to it by Phoenix, notwithstanding any lack of authority of Phoenix to provide the same.

This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts (including by facsimile), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
