Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D filed on March 9, 2018, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on April 27, 2018, as amended by Amendment No. 2 filed on November 21, 2018, is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on behalf of Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. (“Algonquin”), Algonquin (AY Holdco) B.V. (“AY Holdco”), and AAGES (AY Holdings) B.V., (“AY Holdings”) (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”), regarding the close on the purchase of the remaining 16.47% aggregate equity interest in the Issuer held by ACIL Luxco 1, S.A., a société anonyme incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg (“ACIL Luxco 1”) (the “Additional Shares”) pursuant to the Amended and Restated Option Agreement dated November 19, 2018, between Algonquin, ACIL Luxco 1, and Abengoa, S.A. (“Abengoa”) (the “Amended and Restated Option Agreement”).

As of November 27, 2018, the Reporting Persons owned an aggregate of 41,557,663 ordinary shares of the Issuer, representing approximately 41.47% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Issuer (collectively, the “Ordinary Shares”).

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds and other Considerations

Item 3 is hereby amended and restated with the following:

In addition to cash on hand, Algonquin used funds from a term credit facility pursuant to a Credit Agreement dated as of November 19, 2012, as amended by a First Amending Agreement dated as of November 19, 2013, a Second Amending Agreement dated as of February 26, 2016, a Third Amending Agreement dated as of September 20, 2017 and a Fourth Amending Agreement dated as of November 20, 2018, to fund the purchase of the Additional Shares under the Amended and Restated Option Agreement.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended and restated with the following:

The Reporting Persons purchased 25,054,315 of the Ordinary Shares for investment purposes pursuant to a sale and purchase agreement dated November 1, 2017 (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), as amended pursuant to Deed of Amendment No. 1, dated January 31, 2018, Deed of Amendment No. 2, dated February 15, 2018, and Deed of Amendment No. 3, dated February 27, 2018, between ACIL Luxco 1, Algonquin, and Abengoa, as guarantor of ACIL Luxco 1. Pursuant to a sale and purchase agreement dated March 8, 2018 (the “On-Sale SPA”), between Algonquin and AY Holdings, Algonquin transferred the Ordinary Shares it acquired under the Share Purchase Agreement to AY Holdings, which then held shares representing a 25% aggregate equity interest in the Issuer.

On November 1, 2017, Algonquin and Abengoa also entered into an option and right of first refusal agreement with respect to the Additional Shares (the “Option Agreement”). Under the Option Agreement, Algonquin (directly or through an assignee) was granted the right to acquire the Additional Shares. On April 16, 2018, Algonquin and Abengoa entered into a Binding Term Sheet (“Term Sheet”) to amend the Option Agreement. Following the signing of the Term Sheet, Algonquin notified Abengoa of its election to exercise its option to acquire the Additional Shares. On November 19, 2018, Algonquin, Abengoa, and ACIL Luxco 1 entered into the Amended and Restated Option Agreement, further amending the terms and conditions of the Option Agreement, pursuant to which Algonquin closed on the purchase of the Additional Shares.

Prior to closing of the purchase of the Additional Shares (the “Closing”), Algonquin and AY Holdco entered into a sale and purchase agreement dated November 26, 2018 (the “Second On-Sale SPA”), pursuant to which Algonquin agreed to transfer the Additional Shares to be acquired under the Amended and Restated Option Agreement to AY Holdco. Further, AY Holdco and AY Holdings entered into a sale and purchase agreement dated November 26, 2018 (the “Third On-Sale SPA”), pursuant to which AY Holdco agreed to transfer the Additional Shares to be acquired under the Second On-Sale SPA to AY Holdings. Upon closing of the transactions described in the Amended and Restated Option Agreement, the Second On-Sale SPA and Third On-Sale SPA, the Reporting Persons held 41,557,663 Ordinary Shares, representing a 41.47% aggregate equity interest in the Issuer.

After the Closing, AAGES BV (“AAGES”), an entity owned 50% by AY Holdco and 50% by an affiliate of Abengoa, anticipates entering into a margin loan agreement (the “Margin Loan Agreement”) with three (3) different lenders (collectively, the “Margin Lenders”) pursuant to which AAGES will secure a non-recourse margin loan in the aggregate amount of Three Hundred Five Million Dollars ($305,000,000) (the “Margin Loan”) for a transaction unrelated to the purchase of the Additional Shares. Further, AY Holdings anticipates entering into pledge and security agreements with the Margin Lenders (collectively, the “Pledge Agreements”) pursuant to which AY Holdings will pledge all of the Ordinary Shares held by it to the Margin Lenders as collateral for the Margin Loan. AY Holdings will receive, periodically, a pledge fee (the “Pledge Fee”) from AAGES as consideration for pledging such shares.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors and subject to the obligations described herein, including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the board, price levels of Ordinary Shares, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, concentration of positions in the portfolios managed by the Reporting Persons, market conditions and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may take such actions with respect to their investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, purchasing additional Ordinary Shares or other financial instruments related to the Issuer or selling some or all of their beneficial or economic holdings, engaging in hedging or similar transactions with respect to the securities relating to the Issuer and/or otherwise changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Except as otherwise described in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the persons listed on Schedule A to this Schedule 13D, currently has any plans or proposals that would result in or relate to any of the transactions or changes listed in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, as part of their ongoing evaluation of this investment and investment alternatives, the Reporting Persons may consider such matters and, subject to applicable law, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters, and, from time to time, may hold discussions with or make formal proposals to management or the board of directors of the Issuer, other shareholders of the Issuer or other third parties regarding such matters.

The disclosures in Item 6 are herein incorporated by reference.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 is hereby amended and restated with the following:

Option Agreement and Term Sheet

On November 1, 2017, ACIL Luxco 1, Algonquin, and Abengoa entered into the Option Agreement. Under the Option Agreement, Algonquin (directly or through an assignee) was granted the right to acquire the Additional Shares, subject to the condition that the option be exercised within 60 days after the date of the initial 25.0% transfer. On April 16, 2018, Algonquin and Abengoa entered into the Term Sheet to amend the Option Agreement, and following execution of the Term Sheet, Algonquin exercised the option to acquire the Additional Shares. Algonquin’s acquisition of the Additional Shares is subject to certain conditions.

Amended and Restated Option Agreement

On November 19, 2018, ACIL Luxco 1, Algonquin, and Abengoa entered into the Amended and Restated Option Agreement further amending the Option Agreement. Under the Amended and Restated Option Agreement, Algonquin acquired the Additional Shares, subject to certain terms and conditions therein.

Second On-Sale SPA and Third On-Sale SPA

Prior to the Closing, Algonquin and AY Holdco entered into the Second On-Sale SPA pursuant to which Algonquin transferred the Additional Shares it acquired under the Amended and Restated Option Agreement to AY Holdco.

Prior to the Closing, AY Holdco and AY Holdings entered into the Third On-Sale SPA pursuant to which AY Holdco transferred the Additional Shares it acquired under the Second On-Sale SPA to AY Holdings.

Margin Loan Agreement and Pledge and Security Agreements

After the Closing, AAGES and the Margin Lenders anticipate entering into the Margin Loan Agreement pursuant to which AAGES will secure the Margin Loan for a transaction unrelated to the purchase of the Additional Shares. After the Closing, AY Holdings and the Margin Lenders anticipate entering into the Pledge Agreements. Under the Pledge Agreements, AY Holdings will pledge all of the Ordinary Shares held by it to the Margin Lenders as collateral for the Margin Loan. AY Holdings will receive, periodically, the Pledge Fee from AAGES as consideration for pledging such shares.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (d) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower's obligations hereunder. The Bank shall not have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Bank's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

-21-

(f) Disbursement Procedures. The Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Bank with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(g) Interim Interest. If the Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans or U.S. Base Rate Loans as applicable as to the currency. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Bank.

(h) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Bank pursuant to section 7.02(c)(i) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Bank, in the name of and for the benefit of the Bank, such that the Bank shall have a first and exclusive interest in the account and the funds deposited therein with the right forthwith and with notice to hold such funds against and to apply such funds to reimburse for any draw on the unexpired Letters of Credit, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Bank as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Bank shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Bank and at the Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Bank to reimburse LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after any Event of Default has been cured or waived.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of the Bank to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.09. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Loan other than a LIBOR Loan or a Bankers' Acceptance in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section. At any time except during the Bulge Facility Availability Period, if the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds the Commitment Amount by 105% at any time, solely as a result of currency fluctuations or otherwise, the Borrower shall promptly prepay the Loans (or cash collateralize Letters of Credit if all Loans are prepaid and any such excess still exists) by the amount of such excess. During the Bulge Facility Availability Period only, if the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures and the Bulge Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Commitment Amount by 105% at any time, solely as a result of currency fluctuations or otherwise, the Borrower shall promptly prepay the Loans (or cash collateralize Letters of Credit if all Loans are prepaid and any such excess still exists) by the amount of such excess.

(b) The Borrower shall notify the Bank in writing of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a LIBOR Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Toronto time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Toronto time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Loan or portion thereof to be prepaid.

Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11.

(c) Unless the outstanding principal amount of the Loan made under the Bulge Facility is prepaid at an earlier date, the Borrower shall cause the outstanding principal amount of the Loan made under the Bulge Facility to be prepaid in full forthwith from proceeds of that certain U.S. $305 million margin loan agreement dated on or about November 28, 2018 between Abengoa-Algonquin Global Energy Solutions B.V., as borrower, AAGES (AY Holdings) B.V., as pledgor, the lenders party thereto, and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent.

SECTION 2.10. Standby Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank a standby fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the undrawn Commitment Amount during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the date on which the Applicability Period expires (the “Standby Fee”). Accrued Standby Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Availability Period expires, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All Standby Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank, for its own account, any fees payable in the amounts and at the times agreed upon between the Borrower and the Bank.

(c) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Bank. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.11. Interest. (a) Interest on Loans, other than LIBOR Loans and Bankers’ Acceptances, shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date. If any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall, at the option of the Bank, bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable.

(b) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitment Amount; provided that (i) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and (ii) in the event of any conversion of any LIBOR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(c) The Canadian Prime Rate, the BA Discount Rate and the U.S. Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365/366 days. The LIBO Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days.

(d) For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure thereunder, whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day or 365-day year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or 365, as applicable. The rates of interest specified in this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.

(e) If any provision of this Agreement would oblige the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to the Bank in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by applicable law or would result in a receipt by the Bank of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, 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 so result in a receipt by the Bank of “interest” at a “criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows: (i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest or the amount or rate of any Acceptance Fee required to be paid to the Bank, and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the Bank that would constitute interest for purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest. If, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan, the Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate or the market for so ascertaining or issuing LIBOR Rate Loans is disrupted for such Interest Period, then the Bank shall give notice thereof to the Borrower as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Loan to, or continuation of any Loan as, a LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall be made as an U.S. Base Rate Loan.

-27-

SECTION 2.13. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Bank; or

(ii) subject the Bank to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on the Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Loans made by the Bank or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to the Bank of issuing or maintaining any Loan or Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to the Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Bank for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If the Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank's capital as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by or Letters of Credit issued by the Bank to a level below that which the Bank could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Bank's policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to the Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Bank for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of the Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Bank as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of the Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Bank's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred prior to the date that the Bank notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor.

SECTION 2.14. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto in accordance with Section 8.04, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate the Bank for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a LIBOR Loan, such loss, cost or expense to the Bank shall be deemed to include an amount determined by the Bank to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which the Bank would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for U.S. Dollar of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the LIBOR market. A certificate of the Bank setting forth any amount or amounts that the Bank is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. Bankers' Acceptances may not be prepaid, terminated or cancelled prior to the maturity thereof.

-28-

SECTION 2.15. Taxes. (a) Withholding Taxes; Gross-Up. Each payment by the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by law. If it is required to withhold Taxes, then the Borrower may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that net of such withholding (including withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section) the applicable permitted assignee (in accordance with Section 8.04) receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Bank the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Bank.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by the Bank in connection with any Loan Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.15(d) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.15(d) shall be paid within ten (10) days after the Bank delivers to the Borrower a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by the Bank and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

-29-

SECTION 2.16. Payments Generally. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Toronto time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Bank, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Bank via wire transfer to an account designated by the Bank. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Canadian Dollars for Canadian Dollar advances and U.S. Dollars for U.S. Dollar advances.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Bank to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder.

In this Section 2.18, “Extension Request” means a written request by the Borrower to the Bank to extend the then current Maturity Date by one year, which request shall include an Officer’s Certificate of the Borrower certifying that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date of such request.

Upon receipt from the Borrower of an executed Extension Request, the Bank shall, within 30 days after receipt of the Extension Request, provide to the Borrower either (a) written notice that the Bank agrees to the extension of the Maturity Date by one year from the then current Maturity Date, or (b) written notice that the Bank does not agree to such requested extension. If the Bank agrees to the requested extension, the Maturity Date shall be deemed to be extended by one year from the then current Maturity Date. If the Bank refuses the Extension Request or fails to respond in writing agreeing to the request extension within such period then the Extension Request shall be deemed to have been denied and the maturity will occur on the then current Maturity Date.

(a) No failure or delay by the Bank in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents and professional advisors (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Bank to honour a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 8.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-tax claim.

-44-

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(d) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor, subject to receipt of a written undertaking by the Indemnitee in favor of the Borrower to return such amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment that such Indemnitee was not entitled to such indemnification under this Section 8.03.

SECTION 8.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Bank (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, and, to the extent expressly contemplated by Section 8.03, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) The Bank may assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitment Amount and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Borrower; provided further that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 8.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Bank may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Revolving Credit Facility has not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 8.01, 8.03, 8.08 and 8.09 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Revolving Credit Facility or the Bulge Facility or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

-45-

SECTION 8.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Bank constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Bank and when the Bank shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 8.08. Right of Setoff.

The rights of the Bank under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which the Bank may have.

SECTION 8.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

(b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in Ontario or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

-46-

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
