(a)

 

Amount beneficially owned:


Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares listed on such Reporting Person’s respective reporting page.

As of April 20, 2018, (i) GSO Capital Solutions Fund II (Luxembourg) S.a r.l.. directly held 227,871 convertible preferred shares of the Issuer (“Preferred Shares”) convertible into 11,828,156 Common Shares, (ii) GSO COF II Facility (Luxembourg) S.a r.l. directly held 195,318 Preferred Shares convertible into 10,138,419 Common Shares, (iii) GSO Special Situations Master Fund LP directly held 108,720 Preferred Shares convertible into 5,643,356 Common Shares, (iv) GSO Palmetto Opportunistic Investment Partners (Cayman) L.P. directly held 19,015 Preferred Shares convertible into 987,016 Common Shares, (v) GSO Credit-A Partners (Cayman) L.P. directly held 26,933 Preferred Shares convertible into 1,398,018 Common Shares, (vi) Steamboat Credit Opportunities Master Fund LP directly held 1,242 Preferred Shares convertible into 64,469 Common Shares, (vii) GSO Coastline Credit Partners (Cayman) L.P. directly held 4,895 Preferred Shares convertible into 254,086 Common Shares, (viii) GSO Cactus Credit Opportunities Fund (Cayman) LP directly held 16,426 Preferred Shares convertible into 852,628 Common Shares, (ix) GSO Oasis Credit Partners (Cayman) LP directly held 21,980 Preferred Shares convertible into 1,140,921 Common Shares, (x) GSO Aiguille des Grands Montets Fund I LP directly held 9,660 Preferred Shares convertible into 501,424 Common Shares, (xi) GSO Aiguille des Grands Montets Fund II LP directly held 5,903 Preferred Shares convertible into 306,408 Common Shares, (xii) GSO Aiguille des Grands Montets Fund III LP directly held 5,903 Preferred Shares convertible into 306,408 Common Shares, and (xiii) GSO Churchill Partners LP directly held 7,194 Preferred Shares convertible into 373,421 Common Shares.

Pursuant to an agreement, dated April 17, 2018, with a former consultant to the Company, in connection with such former consultant’s relationship with GSO Capital Partners LP, such former consultant granted GSO Capital Partners LP the sole right to direct his exercise of interests and rights in 85,000 vested options to purchase Common Shares previously granted to such former consultant in connection with services provided to the Company, and, as a result, such Common Shares are included herein as beneficially owned by GSO Capital Partners LP and certain other Reporting Persons.

Each of GSO Capital Partners LP and the GSO Funds has agreed to undertake in favor of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX Undertaking”), not to convert (or in the case of GSO Capital Partners LP, not to cause any GSO Fund to convert, as long as GSO has control or direction over the Preferred Shares held by such GSO Fund), any Preferred Shares if such conversion would cause the Reporting Persons, directly or indirectly, to receive a number of securities resulting in the Reporting Persons owning 20% or more of the voting rights attached to the Issuer’s securities at the time of the conversion, including any securities held by parties acting jointly or in concert with the Reporting Persons, except in connection with certain permitted transactions (such as with the prior approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange, in the context of any transaction where substantially concurrently with such conversion (or promptly thereafter) the applicable Reporting Person sells or transfers the Common Shares received as a result of such conversion to a third party not being GSO Capital Partners LP or any funds or accounts managed or advised by GSO Capital Partners LP) and certain extraordinary corporate transactions identified therein. The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of any and all Common Shares issuable upon any conversion of the Preferred Shares if such conversion would cause the Reporting Persons’ aggregate beneficial ownership to exceed or remain above 20%.

The Preferred Shares held by the Reporting Persons are collectively convertible into 33,794,730 Common Shares, with respect to which the Reporting Persons may only exercise such conversion rights in accordance with the restrictions under the TSX Undertaking as described above if such number of Common Shares were to exceed the limitation described therein.


  (b) Percent of class:

Calculations of the percentage of Common Shares beneficially owned assumes that there are a total of 148,620,876 Common Shares outstanding as of April 9, 2018 as reported in the Company’s Notice of Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders and Management Information Circular dated April 10, 2018 filed with the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR), and takes into account the number of Preferred Shares and options to purchase Common Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, as applicable. Based on this number of outstanding Common Shares, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the percentage of shares of the total number of outstanding Common Shares as listed on such Reporting Person’s respective reporting page.

 

  (c) Number of Shares as to which the Reporting Person has:

 

  (i) Sole power to vote or to direct the vote:

See Item 5 of each cover page.

 

  (ii) Shared power to vote or to direct the vote:
