(a)

BAM employees to serve as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Investment Officer, as approved by the Board from time to time. The Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Investment Officer shall each have fiduciary duties to the Company under Bermuda law and, while acting on behalf of the Company, shall be required to comply with the internal policies, procedures, codes of conduct, guidelines and applicable written position descriptions of the Company as adopted from time to time. For greater certainty, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Investment Officer shall be subject at all times while acting on behalf of the Company to the supervision and direction of the Board. During the Term of this Agreement, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Investment Officer shall not be changed or removed by BAM without the prior approval of the Company (which shall require approval by a majority of the members of the Board). For greater certainty, if there is a death, disability or resignation of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Investment Officer during the Term of this Agreement, BAM shall promptly propose an individual to fill the vacancy, and such individual shall be approved by a majority of the members of the Board and shall only be confirmed upon such approval.

3.2	Addition or Removal of Services

(a)

The Parties hereto recognize and acknowledge that, during the Term, the Company anticipates that the scope and nature of the services required by the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement will change, which may necessitate the addition or removal of any one or more of the BAM Services from time to time (including that, subject to the approval by a majority of the members of the Board, the Company may transition to directly employing its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Investment Officer and other senior management).

(b)

During the Term, upon written notice to BAM by the Company, the Company may replace the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Investment Officer, as applicable, for any reason, including if the Board deems that the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Investment Officer do not appear to be meeting the obligations of their roles at the Company to the satisfaction of the Board.

During the course of providing the BAM Services under this Agreement, BAM acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall have access to and be permitted to use all information technology licences and IP licences that have been granted to BAM pursuant to certain agreements which grant such licences to BAM, the access and use of which by the Company is reasonably required for the provision of the BAM Services hereunder.

To the extent that BAM is granted authority to execute any documents referred to in Section 7.2 on behalf of the Company, all reasonable efforts shall be made to ensure that every contract entered into on behalf of the Company by BAM shall (except as BAM may otherwise expressly agree in writing with respect to personal liability of BAM) include a provision substantially to the following effect:

"The parties hereto acknowledge that BAM is entering into this agreement solely on behalf of the Company and the obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be personally binding upon, and that resort shall not be had to, nor will recourse or satisfaction be

- 13 -

sought from, by lawsuit or otherwise, any of the foregoing or the private property of any of the Board, BAM, any registered or beneficial holder of Shares, or officers, employees or agents of the Company, and recourse shall be limited to, and satisfied only out of, the Company's assets."

This provision of this Section 7.3 shall be held in trust and enforced by BAM for the benefit of the relevant Shareholders. The omission of such a provision from any such written agreement shall not operate to impose personal liability on the Board, BAM, or any Shareholder.

ARTICLE 8

ACTIVITIES OF BAM

8.1	Standard of Care and Delegation

(a)

In exercising its powers and discharging its duties under this Agreement, BAM shall exercise the powers and discharge the duties conferred hereunder honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company and in connection therewith shall exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a professional service provider having responsibilities of a similar nature would exercise in comparable circumstances. For greater certainty, BAM shall not be liable, answerable or accountable to the Company for any loss or damage resulting from, incidental to or relating to the provision of the BAM Services hereunder by BAM, including any exercise or refusal to exercise a discretion, any mistake or error of judgment or any act or omission believed by BAM to be within the scope of authority conferred on it by this Agreement, unless such loss or damage resulted from the fraud, willful default or negligence of BAM in performing its obligations hereunder.

(b)

Subject to the prior approval of the Company of the delegation of any material obligations, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, BAM may delegate specific aspects of its obligations hereunder to any other Person (including a Subsidiary, in which case, notwithstanding the foregoing, no prior approval shall be required), provided that such delegation shall not relieve BAM of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

(c)

Notwithstanding Section 8.1(b), BAM shall not in any manner, directly or indirectly, be liable or held to account for the activities or inactivities of any Person to which any such obligations may have been delegated (excluding Subsidiaries or associates of BAM), provided that in making such specific delegation, BAM acted in accordance with Section 8.1(a).

- 14 -

8.2

Reliance

(a)

In carrying out its duties hereunder, BAM and its delegates shall be entitled to rely on:

(i)

statements of fact of other persons (any of which may be persons with whom BAM is affiliated or associated) who are considered by BAM, acting reasonably, to be knowledgeable of such facts; and

(ii)

statements, the opinion or advice of or information from any solicitor, auditor, valuer, engineer, surveyor, appraiser or other expert selected by BAM, provided that BAM exercised reasonable care and diligence in selecting such person to provide such statements, opinion, advice or information; and may employ such experts as may be necessary for the proper discharge of its duties.

(b)

BAM may rely, and shall be protected in acting, upon any instrument or other documents reasonably believed by it to be genuine and in force.

8.3	Other Activities of BAM

(a)

The Company acknowledges that BAM or its Subsidiaries or associates (including the individuals serving as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Investment Officer during the portion of time they act on behalf of BAM) are engaged in or may become engaged in a variety of other businesses. The Company acknowledges and consents to any and all such activities and agrees that nothing herein shall prevent BAM or any of its Subsidiaries or associates (including the individuals serving as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Investment Officer during the portion of time they act on behalf of BAM) or any of their respective officers, directors or employees from having other business interests, even though such business interests may be similar to or competitive with the affairs of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. BAM and its Subsidiaries and associates (including the individuals serving as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Investment Officer during the portion of time they act on behalf of BAM) and their respective directors, officers and employees shall have the right independently to engage in and receive the full benefits from business activities whether or not similar to or competitive with the affairs of the Company or its Subsidiaries, without consulting the Company.

(b)

BAM shall not be considered to be a fiduciary of the Company by reason of performing the BAM Services provided hereunder and will only have the obligations provided for expressly in this Agreement, and no other obligations, duties or standard of care shall be implied and no different standard shall be imposed by any Applicable Law (to the fullest extent permitted by the same) or otherwise in respect of such BAM Services and the Company agrees that it shall not seek to have any different standard imposed in respect hereof.

(c)

In the event of any conflict of interest between BAM, or any Subsidiary or associate thereof, and the Company in respect of any matter relating to this Agreement, a Party shall give prompt written notice to the other Parties prior to taking any action in respect of such matter setting forth the reason for such conflict. The Party receiving such notice shall take all such actions or make all such decisions relating to the matters giving rise to the conflict of interest, and for this purpose the Company shall be entitled to perform the applicable BAM Services itself or engage a third party to do so on its behalf, if necessary. Conflicts (and potential conflicts) of interest between BAM and the Company arising from BAM's investment management services shall be addressed in the Investment Management Agreements and shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.3(c).

- 15 -

8.4	Transition of Services During the Term

Notwithstanding the Services Fees that will be charged by BAM from time to time in accordance with Section 4.1, the Parties recognize and acknowledge that, during the Term, the Company anticipates that the scope and nature of the BAM Services provided pursuant to this Agreement will change and that a portion of the BAM Services may in the future (i) be undertaken by the Company internally, or (ii) be undertaken by a third party service provider in lieu of BAM. In the event that any BAM Services are no longer provided by BAM, BAM shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Company in respect of the transition of any of the BAM Services to the Company or any third party provider, as the case may be, and the Company shall be responsible for the payment to BAM of any costs or expenses reasonably incurred by BAM in respect of such transition (including the costs set forth in Section 11.4(a)(iv)); provided that (i) the Company shall provide 90 days prior written notice to BAM of such change in BAM Services, and (ii) prior to undertaking such transition services, BAM shall provide the Company with an estimate of the costs and expenses it anticipates incurring in connection with the provision of such services, and such estimate is acceptable to the Company, acting reasonably. For greater certainty and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Services Fees will be correspondingly reduced upon the completion of the transition of any BAM Service to the Company or any third party provider.

8.5	Acknowledgement of the Company

The Company acknowledges that conducting the BAM Services contemplated herein may result in augmenting the value of the Shares in which BAM or its Subsidiaries or associates have an interest and the Company agrees that neither BAM nor its Subsidiaries or associates shall be liable to account to the Company with respect to such results.

ARTICLE 9

The provisions of this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 10

FORCE MAJEURE

10.1	Consequences of Force Majeure

(a)

During the occurrence and continuance of an event of Force Majeure, the obligations of the Party affected by such event of Force Majeure, to the extent that such obligations cannot be performed as a result of such event of Force Majeure, shall be suspended, and such Party shall not be considered to be in breach or default hereunder, for the period of such occurrence and continuance, except that the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure:

(i)

affecting the Company but not affecting the performance of BAM's obligations hereunder, shall not relieve the Company of its obligations to make payments of the Services Fees to BAM; or

- 17 -

(ii)

affecting BAM but not affecting the performance of the Company's obligations hereunder, shall not relieve the Company of its obligations to make payments of the Services Fees to BAM incurred before the event of Force Majeure in respect of the BAM Services performed by BAM prior to such event of Force Majeure.

(b)

The suspension of performance shall be of no greater scope and of no longer duration than is reasonably required by the event of Force Majeure. No obligation of either Party that arose prior to the event of Force Majeure causing suspension of performance shall be excused as a result of the event of Force Majeure.

10.2

Notice

Upon the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure, the non-performing Party:

(a)

shall give the other Party prompt written notice of the particulars of the event of Force Majeure and its expected duration; and

ARTICLE 11

TERMINATION

11.1	Termination

This Agreement may be terminated:

(a)

at any time upon mutual agreement of the Parties;

(b)

by the Company:

(i)

at any time during the Term upon a material breach or material default (as determined by the Company in its discretion, acting reasonably) of any of BAM's obligations or covenants set forth in this Agreement, which breach or default is not cured within sixty (60) days after BAM's receipt of notice of such breach of default from the Company, such termination to have effect immediately upon the expiration of such sixty (60) day cure period or at such later date as may be specified by the Company in such notice of termination; or

(ii)

upon 30 days' written notice to BAM upon the occurrence of an Event of Insolvency by BAM, which notice shall provide the reason for the termination in reasonable detail; and

(c)

by BAM:

(i)

at any time during the Term upon 90 days' prior written notice given by BAM to the Company upon a material breach or material default (as determined by BAM in its discretion, acting reasonably) of any of the Company's obligations or covenants set forth in this Agreement, which

- 18 -

breach or default is not cured within sixty (60) days after the Company's receipt of written notice of such breach or default from BAM, such termination to have effect on the expiration of the ninety (90) day notice period or at such later date as may be specified by BAM in such notice of termination; or

(ii)

upon 30 days' written notice to the Company upon the occurrence of an Event of Insolvency by the Company, which notice shall provide the reason for the termination in reasonable detail.

For the purposes of this Agreement, references to "termination", "terminate this Agreement" or "termination of this Agreement" or similar expressions refer to any termination of this Agreement by the Company or by BAM, or any termination of this Agreement by all Parties, as the case may be. Termination of this Agreement shall not terminate or negate any obligations of a Party to another Party under this Agreement that have arisen or accrued up to the effective time of termination. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a termination of a particular BAM Service under this Agreement, including removal and/or replacement of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Investment Officer, constitute a termination of this Agreement.

11.2	Return of Records

Upon the termination of this Agreement or the removal of any particular BAM Service provided by BAM hereunder:

(a)

BAM, at the request of the Company, shall forthwith deliver to the Company, or as the Company may direct, any original records, documents, books of account and computer disks (where practical and where such are readily available) relating to the BAM Services provided to the Company hereunder (other than BAM proprietary information and systems), which are then in the possession or control of BAM or its Subsidiaries (as permitted by Applicable Law); provided, however, that BAM may retain copies of such records, documents and books of account. When such data is in electronic form, it shall be made available in useable electronic format together with any necessary passwords and related access information; and

(b)

in the event that any materials referred to herein are in the possession of the Company, the Company, at the request of BAM, shall forthwith deliver to BAM, or as BAM may direct, any original records, documents, books of account and computer disks (where practical and where such are readily available) relating to BAM that the Company may have obtained in the course of receiving the BAM Services hereunder (other than the Company proprietary information and systems), which are then in the possession or control of the Company or its Subsidiaries (as permitted by Applicable Law); provided, however, that the Company may retain copies of such records, documents and books of account. When such data is in electronic form, it shall be made available in useable electronic format together with any necessary passwords and related access information.

- 19 -

11.3	Final Balance

Upon the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to BAM all earned and unpaid amounts due by the Company to BAM hereunder up to the date of termination, together with any other charges which have been previously approved by the Company and are to be reimbursed by the Company hereunder, including applicable adjustments. The Company shall, however, be under no obligation to pay to BAM any amount for services performed by BAM after the date of termination unless such services have been requested by the Company. In no event shall the Company be obligated or otherwise required to pay a termination fee upon the termination of this Agreement.

11.4	Duties Upon Termination

(a) Upon the termination of this Agreement or the removal of any particular BAM Service provided by BAM hereunder, the Company shall:

(i)

assume all contracts entered into by BAM on the Company's behalf to the extent relating to all of the BAM Services provided hereunder, or the particular BAM Service so removed, as the case may be, if such contracts have been entered into in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and indemnify BAM from and after the effective date of termination of this Agreement or the removal of BAM Services hereunder against any liability by reason of anything done or required to be done under any such contracts unless such liability results from the fraud, unlawful conduct or negligence of BAM, any act or omission of BAM which constitutes a breach of this Agreement, or any matter that is not directly related to the BAM Services provided hereunder;

(ii)

pay for and indemnify BAM against the costs of all services, materials and supplies, if any, which may have been ordered by the Company in accordance with this Agreement, or the BAM Services so removed, as the case may be, but which may not have been paid by the Company and reimbursed under this Agreement at the time of termination if such services, materials and supplies have been ordered in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement;

(iii)

pay to BAM all unpaid Services Fees earned and accrued prior to the effective date of termination of this Agreement; and

(iv)

pay to BAM all reasonable transition costs in connection with the transition of the BAM Services from BAM to the Company or a third party service provider, which transition costs shall include IP licensing costs, data migration costs, records transfer costs, and costs associated with the transfer and use of hardware or software required for the provision of the BAM Services.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Parties agree that the Company shall be permitted to solicit employees of BAM as part of and following any termination of this Agreement but shall not be obligated to do so, nor shall the Company be responsible for any costs or expenses of employees of BAM terminated by BAM as a result of any such termination, including severance costs.

- 20 -

11.5	Additional Services Following Termination

If additional services are required following termination for material matters (which would not customarily be part of the transition process), BAM shall be paid for services rendered from the date of termination at rates approved in writing in advance by the Company. Absent such approval, BAM shall not be obliged to provide any such additional services.

ARTICLE 12

SECURITY

12.1

Security

(a)

Without restricting BAM's obligations described elsewhere in this Agreement, BAM shall exercise and make available to the Company those security policies, standards, procedures and systems which are exercised for the protection of BAM's assets, information and personal information (the "Security Procedures"). BAM shall not implement changes to its security standards and procedures that would have an adverse effect on the provision of the BAM Services or on the security of any confidential information or Personal Information of the Company; provided that the Company will be provided notice of such changes at least 90 days prior to such change. BAM acknowledges and agrees that BAM and its representatives shall also comply with the policies and procedures of the Company relating to security (the "Company Security Policies"). In the event of a conflict between the Security Procedures and the Company Security Policies, the more stringent standard or policy shall apply.

(b)

Without limiting the generality of subsection 12.1(a) hereof or any other provision of this Agreement, BAM shall adhere to the following practices:

(i)

restricting entry solely to authorized personnel of BAM and its Subsidiaries, employees, agents, contractors to those areas of BAM's site or sites in which BAM Services are performed, in which any confidential information or Personal Information of the Company is kept, or in which the Company assets or the Company data are held or processed;

(ii)

safeguarding and retaining all data, information and records received from or relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries resident on systems operated by or for the benefit of BAM and its representatives or in the possession or control of its representatives for so long as and to the extent required pursuant to the terms hereof;

(iii)

safeguarding the physical integrity and condition of all media in the possession or control of BAM and its representatives containing confidential information or Personal Information of the Company, its assets or data;

(iv)

requiring that BAM and its representatives have in place logical as well as physical access control systems, which includes a means of individual identification and authentication before allowing access to the Company systems and data;

- 21 -

(v)

requiring that BAM and its representatives comply with the Company procedures that are in place to support tax exemption compliance;

(vi)

requiring that only licensed software is installed on the systems used for the Company business;

(vii)

requiring that systems are free of malicious software, including viruses, worms, spy-ware and key stroke recorders, which could be used to compromise the Company information. BAM shall regularly scan the systems to detect and remove such malicious software; and

(viii)

requiring that the latest software and hardware upgrades and patches have been tested and applied to these systems.

(c)

Without in any way limiting the generality of any other provision of this Agreement, BAM shall immediately notify the Company of any suspected or actual breach of the Security Procedures that may compromise the safeguarding of confidential information and Personal Information of which BAM becomes aware, including, without limitation, any unauthorized access to or entry into its premises, computer systems or databases.

The resolution of Disputes pursuant to the terms of this Article 13 will be final and binding upon the Parties, and there will be no appeal therefrom, including any appeal to a court of law on a question of law, a question of fact, or a question of mixed fact and law. The International Commercial Arbitration Act, 2017 (Ontario) (the "Act") shall govern any Dispute under Article 13. If the provisions of this Article 13 are inconsistent with the provisions of the Act and to the extent of such inconsistency, the provisions of this Article 13 shall prevail in any Dispute.

13.2	Arbitration Procedure

Whenever a Dispute arises among any of the Parties, such Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to settle such dispute internally and will consult and negotiate with each other in an effort to reach a fair and equitable resolution satisfactory to the Parties as promptly as possible. If the Parties have not agreed to a settlement of the dispute within 30 days from the date upon which written notice of the Dispute was delivered by one Party to the other,

- 22 -

then the Parties agree that the Dispute shall be submitted to, and conclusively settled by, arbitration by a single arbitrator (unless the Parties otherwise agree) pursuant to the National Arbitration Rules of the ADR Institute of Canada, Inc. The arbitration proceedings shall take place in Toronto, Ontario, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
