In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them; (iii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time after notice as provided for in this Section 11(d) to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; or (iv) the indemnified party

shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Underwriters, their respective directors and officers, and all persons, if any, who control any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, (ii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either such Section and (iii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Selling Shareholders and all persons, if any, who control any Selling Shareholder within the meaning of either such Section, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Underwriters, their respective officers and directors, and such control persons and affiliates of any Underwriters, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Managers. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. In the case of any such separate firm for the Selling Shareholders and such control persons of any Selling Shareholders, such firm shall be designated in writing by such Selling Shareholder. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless (x) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) such settlement does not include any statement or admission of fault.

(e) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 11(a), 11(b) or 11(c) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 11(e)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 11(e)(i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection

with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Sellers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Shares shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and each Seller and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the U.S. Final Prospectus, bear to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the Shares. The relative fault of the Company and the Sellers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Sellers or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 11 are several in proportion to the respective number of Shares they have purchased hereunder, and not joint. The liability of each Selling Shareholder under the contribution agreement contained in this paragraph shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate Public Offering Price (less underwriting discounts and commissions) of the Shares sold by such Selling Shareholder under this Agreement.

(f) The Company, the Sellers and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 11 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 11(e). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 11(e) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 11 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(g) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 11 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Selling Shareholders contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any director or officer of any

Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter, any Selling Shareholder or any person controlling any Selling Shareholder, or the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Shares.

(h) The provisions contained in this Section 11 shall not affect any agreement among the Company and/or the Selling Shareholders with respect to indemnification or contribution, including, but not limited to, the indemnity set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of August 1, 2014 among the Company and the holders party thereto.

12. Termination. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ or the TSX, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on the NASDAQ or the TSX, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States or Canada shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by U.S. Federal, New York State or Canadian authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets, currency exchange rates or controls or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectuses.

13. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of the Shares to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule II bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the number of Shares that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 13 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such number of Shares without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Shares and the aggregate number of Firm Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased on such date, and

arrangements satisfactory to you, the Company and the Selling Shareholders for the purchase of such Firm Shares are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company or the Selling Shareholders. In any such case either you, the Company or the relevant Sellers shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, in the Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectuses or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. If, on an Option Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Additional Shares and the aggregate number of Additional Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the option to (i) terminate their obligation hereunder to purchase the Additional Shares to be sold on such Option Closing Date or (ii) purchase not less than the number of Additional Shares that such non-defaulting Underwriters would have been obligated to purchase in the absence of such default. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company or any Seller to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company or any Seller shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company or such non-complying or non-performing Seller or Sellers, as the case may be, will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonably incurred fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred and documented by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

14. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Shares, represents the entire agreement between the Company and the Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to the preparation of the Preliminary Prospectuses, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectuses, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Shares.

(b) Each of the Company and each Selling Shareholder acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Shares: (i) the Underwriters have acted at arm’s length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company, any Selling Shareholder or any other person, (ii) the Underwriters owe the Company and each Selling Shareholder only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any, and (iii) the Underwriters may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Selling Shareholders. The Company and each Selling Shareholder waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may have against the Underwriters

arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Shares.

15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

17. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

18. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only upon receipt and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered, mailed or sent to you in care of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, 1585 Broadway, New York, New York 10036, Attention: Equity Syndicate Desk, with a copy to the Legal Department; if to the Company shall be delivered, mailed or sent to if to the Company shall be delivered, mailed or sent to Marlon Goldstein, Chief Legal Officer, South Tower, Suite 3205, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2J3 and if to the Selling Shareholders shall be delivered, mailed or sent to the address listed on Schedule I hereto underneath such Selling Shareholder’s name.

19. Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agents for Service. (a) The Company and each of the Selling Shareholders irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in The City of New York (the “Specified Courts”) over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectuses, the Registration Statement or the offering of the Shares (each, a “Related Proceeding”). The Company and each of the Selling Shareholders irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any Related Proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such Related Proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. To the extent that the Company and each of the Selling Shareholders has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, the Company and each of the Selling Shareholders irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such immunity in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding.

(b) The Company hereby irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System as its agent for service of process in any Related Proceeding and agrees that service of process in any such Related Proceeding may be made upon it at the office of such agent. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. The Company represents and warrants that such agent has agreed to act as the Company’s agent for service of process,

and the Company agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect.

(c) Each of the Selling Shareholders herby irrevocably appoints GSO Capital Partners LP, with offices at 345 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10154 as its agent for service of process in any Related Proceeding and agrees that service of process in any such Related Proceeding may be made upon it at the office of such agent. Each of the Selling Shareholders waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. Each of the Selling Shareholders represents and warrants that such agent has agreed to act as the Selling Shareholders’ agent for service of process, and Each of the Selling Shareholders agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect.

20. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Underwriters could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Company or any Selling Shareholder with respect to any sum due from it to any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first business day following receipt by such Underwriter or controlling person of any sum in such other currency, and only to the extent that such Underwriter or controlling person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency. If the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder, the Company and each of the Selling Shareholders agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Underwriter or controlling person against such loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder, such Underwriter or controlling person agrees to pay to the Company or the relevant Selling Shareholder(s), as applicable, an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder.

21. The Company and the Selling Shareholders acknowledge and agree that: (i) notwithstanding the terms of the notice of participation dated June 13, 2018 delivered by the Selling Shareholders to the Company, the number of Firm Shares and the number of Additional Shares to be sold by the Selling Shareholders as set out in this Agreement constitute the number of shares requested by the Selling Shareholders to be included in the offering contemplated by this Agreement pursuant to, and for purposes of, section 3.1 of the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of August 1, 2014 among the Company and the holders party thereto, and (ii) the Company and the Selling Shareholders waive

the notice periods required by section 3.1 of such Registration Rights Agreement in respect of such request.

Very truly yours,

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC

Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.

c/o Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC
1585 Broadway
New York, New York 10036

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, (“Morgan Stanley”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“J.P. Morgan”) and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (together with Morgan Stanley and J.P. Morgan, the “Managers”) proposes to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with The Stars Group Inc., a corporation governed under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the “Company”), and certain shareholders of the Company (the “Selling Shareholders”) named in Schedule I to the Underwriting Agreement providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) by the several Underwriters, including the Managers (the “Underwriters”), of 25,000,000 common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”), of which 17,000,000 Common Shares are to be issued and sold by the Company and 8,000,000 Common Shares are to be sold by the Selling Shareholders.

To induce the Underwriters that may participate in the Public Offering to continue their efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Managers on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the U.S. Final Prospectus (the “Restricted Period”) relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Shares beneficially owned (as such term is used in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), by the undersigned or any other securities so owned convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to:

(a) transactions relating to Common Shares or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Public Offering; provided that no filing

under any of the securities laws (including rules, regulations, policy statements or other such instruments or rulings) of each of the provinces and territories of Canada (collectively, the “Canadian Securities Laws”) or otherwise shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the Restricted Period in connection with any such subsequent sales of Common Shares or other securities acquired in such open market transactions;

(b) (i) the exercise of stock options or other similar awards granted pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans or (ii) the vesting or settlement of awards granted pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans (including the delivery and receipt of Common Shares, other awards or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares in connection with such vesting or settlement), provided that the foregoing restrictions shall apply to any of the undersigned’s Common Shares or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares issued or received upon such exercise, vesting or settlement;

(i) as a bona fide gift, including as a result of estate or intestate succession, or pursuant to a will or other testamentary document;

(ii) if the undersigned is a natural person, to a member of the immediate family of the undersigned (for purposes of this agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage, domestic partnership or adoption no more remote than first cousin, and shall include any former spouse);

(iii) if the undersigned is a natural person, to any trust or other like entity for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned;

FORM OF OPINION AND NEGATIVE ASSURANCE LETTER OF
PAUL WEISS, RIFKIND, WHARTON & GARRISON LLP

1) The Registration Statement and the U.S. Final Prospectus, as of their respective effective or issue times, appear on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Act, except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference in or omitted from either of them, as to which we express no opinion. We have assumed for purposes of this paragraph, (i) the compliance of the Canadian Final Prospectus with the requirements of Ontario securities laws, as interpreted and applied by the Ontario Securities Commission and (ii) that the exhibits to the Registration Statement and the documents incorporated by reference in the U.S. Final Prospectus include all reports or information that in accordance with the requirements of Ontario securities laws, as interpreted and applied by the Ontario Securities Commission, must be made publicly available in connection with the offering of the Shares.

2) The issuance and sale of the Shares by the Company, the execution and delivery by the Company of the Underwriting Agreement and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder will not (i) breach or result in a default under any agreement, indenture or instrument listed on Schedule I to this letter, or (ii) violate those laws, rules and regulations of the United States of America and the State of New York (“Applicable Law”), in each case which in our experience are normally applicable to the transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement. For

purposes of this letter, the term “Applicable Law” does not include federal securities laws or state securities laws, anti-fraud laws, or any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to the Company, the Shares, the Underwriting Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any party to the Underwriting Agreement or any of its affiliates due to the specific assets or business of such party or such affiliate. With respect to clause (i) above, we express no opinion with respect to any provision of any agreement, indenture or instrument listed on Schedule I to the extent that an opinion with respect to such provision would require making any financial, accounting or mathematical calculation or determination, and in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, where the breach, default or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

3. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority, which has not been obtained, taken or made, is required by the Company under any Applicable Law for the issuance and sale of the Shares by the Company and the sale of the Shares by the Selling Shareholder, the execution and delivery by the Company of the Underwriting Agreement and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder. For purposes of this letter, the term “Governmental Authority” means any executive, legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body of the State of New York or United States of America.

4) The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Shares and the application of their proceeds as described in the U.S. Final Prospectus

under the heading “Use of Proceeds,” will not be required to be registered as, an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

In the course of acting as United States counsel to the Company in connection with the offering of the Shares, we have participated in conferences and telephone conversations with your representatives, including your United States and Canadian counsel, officers and other representatives of the Company, officers and other representatives of Cyan Blue Topco Limited (“Cyan Blue”), the independent registered public accountants for the Company and the independent registered public accountants for Cyan Blue during which conferences and conversations the contents of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the U.S. Final Prospectus and related matters were discussed. Based upon such participation (and relying as to factual matters on officers, employees and other representatives of the Company), our understanding of the U.S. federal securities laws and the experience we have gained in our practice thereunder, we hereby advise you that our work in connection with this matter did not disclose any information that caused us to believe that (i) at the Applicable Time, the Registration Statement (except for the financial statements and other financial or accounting data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom or from those documents incorporated by reference, in each case, as to which we express no such belief), included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) as of the Applicable Time, the Pricing Disclosure Package (except for the financial statements and other financial or accounting data included or incorporated by

reference therein or omitted therefrom or from those documents incorporated by reference, in each case, as to which we express no such belief) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) at the time the U.S. Final Prospectus was issued, or at the date hereof, the U.S. Final Prospectus (except for the financial statements and other financial or accounting data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom or from those documents incorporated by reference, in each case, as to which we express no such belief) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Notes:

(1) The price of the Offered Shares was determined by negotiation among the Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters, with reference to the then-current market price of the Common Shares.

(2) The total Underwriters’ discounts and commissions for the Offering will be paid proportionately by the Company and each of the Selling Shareholders based on the respective number of Offered Shares sold by each pursuant to the Offering.

(3) Before deducting the expenses of the Offering, estimated to be approximately US$5,400,000, which, together with the underwriters’ discounts and commissions payable by us in respect of the Treasury Shares, will be paid for by us out of the gross proceeds of the offering of Treasury Shares. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the registration rights agreement entered into as of the August 1, 2014 among the Company and the holders listed in Schedule A to that agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”),

the Company will pay the expenses associated with the offering of the Secondary Shares, other than underwriting discounts and commissions. See “Plan of Distribution.”

(4) The Selling Shareholders and the Company have granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date hereof, to purchase up to 1,875,000 and 1,875,000 additional Common Shares, respectively (representing 6.52% and 6.52% of the total number of shares offered hereunder) at the public offering price listed above, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Underwriters may exercise this option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the initial offering of the Common Shares offered by this Prospectus Supplement (the “Over-Allotment Option”). If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the total “Price to the Public”, “Underwriters’ Discounts and Commissions”, “Net Proceeds to the Company” and “Net Proceeds to the Selling Shareholders” will be US$1,092,500,000.00, US$40,968,750.00, US$690,353,125.00 and US$361,178,125.00, respectively. This Prospectus Supplement also qualifies under applicable Canadian securities laws the grant of the Over-Allotment Option and the distribution of up to 1,875,000 and 1,875,000 Common Shares to be sold by the Selling Shareholders and the Company, respectively, upon exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. A purchaser who acquires Common Shares forming part of the over-allocation position acquires those shares under this Prospectus Supplement, regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option or secondary market purchases. See “Plan of Distribution”.
