MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR

In this Management Information Circular (the "Circular"), unless otherwise noted, all information is given as of February 19, 2020 and all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars.

Unless otherwise indicated, any reference in this Circular to a conversion between U.S.$ and C$ is a conversion at the average of the exchange rates in effect for 2019. During that period, based on the relevant 2019 noon buying rates in New York City for cable transfers in Canadian dollars, as certified for customs purposes by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, the average exchange rate was $1.00 = C$1.3269.

A.

Shareholders will be voting on the following matters: the election of each individual director to the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board" or the "Board of Directors") for the ensuing year, the appointment of an auditor for the Corporation for the ensuing year, authorization of the Board to fix the auditor's remuneration, an advisory resolution on the Corporation's approach to executive compensation, and any other matters as may properly be brought before the Meeting.

The solicitation will be primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited personally by regular employees of the Corporation for which no additional compensation will be paid. The Corporation anticipates that copies of this Circular and accompanying form of proxy will be sent to registered shareholders on or about March 20, 2020.

Q.

WHO IS ENTITLED TO VOTE?

A.

Any holder of Subordinate Voting Shares ("SVS") or Multiple Voting Shares ("MVS") of the Corporation at the close of business on March 13, 2020 or such holder's duly appointed proxyholders or representatives are entitled to vote.

25 votes per share and collectively represent approximately 80.8% of the voting power of the Corporation's securities) were issued and outstanding.

Q.

HOW DO I EXERCISE MY VOTE (AND BY WHEN) IF I AM A REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER?

A.

If you are a registered shareholder, you may exercise your right to vote by attending and voting your shares in person at the Meeting, by mailing in the attached form of proxy or by voting by telephone or internet.

If you vote your shares in person, your vote will be taken and counted at the Meeting.

If you choose to vote your shares using the form of proxy, your proxy form must be received by the Corporation's registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc.

If you choose to vote your shares by telephone or internet, your vote must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. (EDT) on Monday, April 27, 2020.

Non-registered shareholders should refer to Questions and Answers on Voting and Proxies — How Do I Vote If I Am a Non-Registered Shareholder?

Q.

WHAT IF A REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER SIGNS THE FORM OF PROXY ENCLOSED WITH THIS CIRCULAR?

A.

Signing the form of proxy gives authority to Mr. Michael M. Wilson or Mr. Robert A. Mionis or their designees (the "Proxy Nominees"), to vote your shares at the Meeting, unless you give authority to another person to vote your shares by providing that person's name on the form of proxy.

Q.

CAN A REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER APPOINT SOMEONE OTHER THAN THE PROXY NOMINEES TO VOTE THEIR SHARES AT THE MEETING?

A.

Yes, you may appoint an individual or company (such individual or authorized representative of such company shall be referred to herein as a "Designee") other than the Proxy Nominees to represent you at the Meeting. Write the name of the Designee of your choice in the blank space provided in the form of proxy. The Designee whom you choose need not be a shareholder.

Please ensure that the Designee you have appointed is attending the Meeting and is aware that he or she will be voting your shares. Designees should speak to a representative of Computershare upon arriving at the Meeting.

Q.

HOW WILL THE SHARES OF REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS BE VOTED AT THE MEETING IF THEY GIVE THEIR PROXY?

A.

On any ballot that may be called for, the shares represented by a properly executed proxy given in favour of the Proxy Nominees in the enclosed form of proxy will be voted for or against or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions given on the ballot. If you specify a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, such shares will be voted accordingly.

The persons named in the form of proxy must vote for or against or withhold from voting your shares in accordance with your instructions on the form of proxy. In the absence of such directions and unless you specify a Designee other than the Proxy Nominees to vote your shares, your shares will be voted in favour of the election to the Corporation's Board of each of the nominees proposed by management, in favour of the appointment of KPMG LLP as the Corporation's auditor, in favour of the authorization of the Board to fix the auditor's remuneration, in favour of the advisory resolution on the Corporation's approach to executive compensation, and as the Proxy Nominees may determine in their best judgment with respect to any other matters that may be properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

Q.

IF REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS CHANGE THEIR MIND, CAN THEY TAKE BACK THEIR PROXY ONCE IT HAS BEEN GIVEN?

A.

Yes, you may revoke any proxy that you have given at any time prior to its use at the Meeting for which it was given or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, you may revoke your proxy by preparing a written statement, signed by you or your attorney, as authorized, or if the proxy is given on behalf of a corporation or other legal entity, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of such corporation or legal entity, and deposited with the Chair of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, prior to the proxy being voted, or by transmitting, by telephonic or electronic means, a revocation signed by electronic signature by you or by your attorney, who is authorized in writing, to the registered office of the Corporation at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, at which the proxy is to be used.

Note that your participation in person in a vote by ballot at the Meeting will automatically revoke any proxy previously given by you regarding business considered by that vote.

Q.

WHAT IF AMENDMENTS ARE MADE TO THE SCHEDULED MATTERS OR IF OTHER MATTERS ARE BROUGHT BEFORE THE MEETING?

A.

The accompanying form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the Proxy Nominees in respect of any amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting or other matters that may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

As of the date of this Circular, the Corporation's management was not aware of any such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting. However, if any amendments, variations or other matters that are not now known to management should properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, the shares represented by proxies in favour of the Proxy Nominees will be voted on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

Q.

HOW DO I VOTE IF I AM A NON-REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER?

A.

A shareholder is a non-registered shareholder (or beneficial owner) if (i) an intermediary (such as a bank, trust company, securities dealer or broker, trustee or administrator of a registered retirement savings plan, registered retirement income fund, deferred profit sharing plan, registered education savings plan, registered disability savings plan or tax-free savings account), or (ii) a clearing agency (such as CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. or Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation), of which the intermediary is a participant (in each case, an "Intermediary"), holds the shareholder's shares on behalf of the shareholder.

In accordance with National Instrument 54-101 — Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer of the Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 54-101"), the Corporation is distributing copies of materials related to the Meeting to Intermediaries for distribution to non-registered shareholders and such Intermediaries are to forward the materials related to the Meeting to each non-registered shareholder (unless the non-registered shareholder has declined to receive such materials). Such Intermediaries often use a service company (such as Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions ("Broadridge")), to permit the non-registered shareholder to direct the voting of the shares held by the Intermediary on behalf of the non-registered shareholder. The Corporation is paying Broadridge to deliver, on behalf of the Intermediaries, a copy of the materials related to the Meeting to each "non-objecting beneficial owner" and each "objecting beneficial owner" (as those terms are defined in NI 54-101).

If you are a non-registered shareholder, the Intermediary holding your shares should provide a voting instruction form. In order to cast your vote, you must follow the instructions on the voting instruction form to vote by telephone or internet, or complete, sign and return the voting instruction form in accordance with the instructions, and within the timeline (which will likely be earlier than 5:00 p.m. (EDT) on Monday, April 27, 2020), set forth therein. This form will constitute voting instructions which the Intermediary must follow. Alternatively, the Intermediary may provide you with a signed form of proxy. In this case, you do not need to sign the form of proxy, but should complete it and forward it directly to Computershare.

As a non-registered holder, if your shares are held through a broker who is a member of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") and you do not return the voting instruction form, your broker will not have the discretion to vote your shares on any "non-routine" matters, as defined under NYSE rules. Therefore, it is important that you instruct your broker or other Intermediary how to vote your shares. If such broker doesn't receive voting instructions as to a non-routine proposal (all proposals, other than the proposal to appoint the auditor for the ensuing year and to authorize the directors to fix the auditor's remuneration, are "non-routine" matters under NYSE rules), a "broker non-vote" with respect to such shares occurs, and such shares will not be taken into account in determining the outcome of the non-routine proposal.

Should you, as a non-registered shareholder, wish to attend the Meeting and vote your shares in person, or have another person attend and vote your shares on your behalf, you should fill in your own name or the name of your appointee, as the case may be, in the space provided on the form of proxy provided by the Intermediary. An Intermediary's voting instruction form will likely provide corresponding instructions as to how you (or your appointee) can cast your vote in person. In any case, you should carefully follow the instructions provided by the Intermediary and contact the Intermediary promptly if you require assistance.

If you vote and would subsequently like to change your vote (whether by revoking a voting instruction or by revoking a proxy), you should contact the Intermediary to discuss whether this is possible and, if so, what procedures you should follow.

As of February 19, 2020, the only persons, corporations or legal entities who, to the knowledge of the Corporation, its directors or executive officers, beneficially own, or control or direct, directly or indirectly, voting securities carrying 10% or more of the voting rights attached to any class of the voting securities of the Corporation are as follows:

Table 1: Principal Holders of Voting Shares

Agreement for the Benefit of Holders of SVS

Onex, which beneficially owns, controls or directs, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding MVS, has entered into an agreement with the Corporation and with Computershare Trust Company of Canada (as successor to the Montreal Trust Company of Canada), as trustee for the benefit of the holders of the SVS, for the purpose of ensuring that the holders of the SVS will not be deprived of rights under applicable provincial take-over bid legislation to which they would be otherwise entitled in the event of a take-over bid (as that term is defined in applicable securities legislation) for the MVS if the MVS had been SVS. Subject to certain permitted forms of sale, such as identical or better offers to all holders of SVS, Onex has agreed that it, and any of its affiliates that may hold MVS from time to time, will not sell any MVS, directly or indirectly, pursuant to a take-over bid (as that term is defined under applicable securities legislation) under circumstances in which any applicable securities legislation would have required the same offer or a follow-up offer to be made to holders of SVS if the sale had been a sale of SVS rather than MVS, but otherwise on the same terms.

The Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") of the Corporation provide "coat-tail" protection to the holders of the SVS by providing that the MVS will be converted automatically into SVS upon any transfer thereof, except (a) a transfer to Onex or any affiliate of Onex, or (b) a transfer of 100% of the outstanding MVS to a purchaser who also has offered to purchase all of the outstanding SVS for a per share consideration identical to, and otherwise on the same terms as, that offered for the MVS, and the MVS held by such purchaser thereafter shall be subject to the provisions relating to conversion (including with respect to the provisions described in this paragraph) as if all references to Onex were references to such purchaser. In addition, if (a) any holder of any MVS ceases to be an affiliate of Onex, or (b) Onex and its affiliates cease to have the right, in all cases, to exercise the votes attached to, or to direct the voting of, any of the MVS held by Onex and its affiliates, such MVS shall convert automatically into SVS on a one-for-one basis. For these purposes, (a) "Onex" includes any successor corporation resulting from an amalgamation, merger, arrangement, sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or other business combination or reorganization involving Onex, provided that such successor corporation beneficially owns directly or indirectly all MVS beneficially owned directly or indirectly by Onex immediately prior to such transaction and is controlled by the same person or persons as controlled Onex prior to the consummation of such transaction, (b) a corporation shall be deemed to be a subsidiary of another corporation if, but only if (i) it is controlled by that other, or that other and one or more corporations each of which is controlled by that other, or two or more corporations each of which is controlled by that other, or (ii) it is a subsidiary of a corporation that is that other's subsidiary, (c) "affiliate" means a subsidiary of Onex or a corporation controlled by the same person or company that controls Onex, and (d) "control" means beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, securities carrying more than 50% of the votes that may be cast to elect directors if those votes, if cast, could elect more than 50% of the directors. For these purposes, a person is deemed to beneficially own any security which is beneficially owned by a corporation controlled by such person. In addition, if at any time the number of outstanding MVS shall represent less than 5% of the aggregate number of the outstanding MVS and SVS, all of the outstanding MVS shall be automatically converted at such time into SVS on a one-for-one basis.

Election of Directors

The nine individuals listed herein are being recommended for election as directors of the Corporation, as the current term of office for each director expires at the close of the Meeting. If elected, they will hold office until the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their successors are elected or appointed, unless such office is earlier vacated in accordance with the Corporation's by-laws. All of the proposed nominees are currently directors of the Corporation. The Articles provide for a minimum of three and a maximum of twenty directors. The Board of Directors has the authority to set the number of directors of the Corporation to be elected at the Meeting and has set that number at nine.

The Board has a retirement policy which provides that, unless the Board authorizes an exception, a director shall not stand for re-election after his or her 75th birthday. As previously disclosed, an exception to such policy was authorized for Mr. Etherington in each of the past three years in light of his leadership, expertise and valuable contributions to the Board. Through the Board's 2019 annual evaluation process, and on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Mr. Wilson was identified to succeed Mr. Etherington as Chair of the Board and Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee upon Mr. Etherington's retirement. Mr. Etherington retired on January 29, 2020 and Mr. Wilson replaced him as Chair of the Board and Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as of such date. Mr. Wilson has served on the Board since 2011. See Statement of Corporate Governance Practices — Nomination and Election of Directors and Statement of Corporate Governance Practices — Retirement Policy and Term Limits in Schedule A to this Circular.

Unless authority to do so is withheld, shares represented by proxies in favour of the Proxy Nominees will be voted in favour of each of the proposed nominees listed below for election as directors. Management of the

Corporation does not contemplate that any of the nominees will be unable, or for any reason unwilling, to serve as a director, but if that should occur for any reason prior to their election, the Proxy Nominees may, in their discretion, nominate and vote for another nominee.

The Board has adopted a policy that requires, in an uncontested election of directors, that shareholders be able to vote in favour of, or to withhold from voting, separately for each director nominee. If, with respect to any particular nominee, other than the controlling shareholder or a representative of the controlling shareholder, the number of shares withheld from voting by shareholders other than the controlling shareholder and its associates exceeds the number of shares that are voted in favour of the nominee, by shareholders other than the controlling shareholder and its associates, then the Board shall determine, and in so doing shall give due weight to the rights of the controlling shareholder, whether to require the nominee to resign from the Board and, if so required, any such nominee shall immediately tender his or her resignation. A director who tenders a resignation pursuant to this policy will not participate in any meeting of the Board at which the resignation is considered. The Board shall determine whether to accept the resignation, which, if accepted, shall be effective immediately upon such acceptance. The Board shall accept such resignation absent exceptional circumstances. Such a determination by the Board shall be made, and promptly announced by press release (a copy of which will be provided to the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX")), within 90 days after the applicable shareholders' meeting. If the Board determines not to accept a resignation, the press release will fully state the reasons for such decision. Subject to any corporate law restrictions, the Board may leave any resultant vacancy unfilled until the next annual shareholders' meeting or it may fill the vacancy through the appointment of a new director whom the Board considers would merit the confidence of the shareholders, or it may call a special meeting of shareholders at which there shall be presented a nominee or nominees to fill the vacant position or positions. See Statement of Corporate Governance Practices — Nomination and Election of Directors — Election of Directors in Schedule A to this Circular.

The following tables set out certain information with respect to the nominees, including their places of residence; their ages; the year from which each has continuously served as a director of the Corporation, if applicable; all positions and offices held by them with the Corporation or any of its significant affiliates; their present principal occupations, businesses and employments; and other public corporations of which they are or were (during the prior five years) directors. There are no contracts, arrangements or understandings between any director or executive officer or any other person pursuant to which any one of the nominees has been nominated.

For a description of the deferred share units ("DSUs") and restricted share units ("RSUs") issued to the Corporation's directors, see Information Relating to Our Directors — Directors' Ownership of Securities and Information Relating to Our Directors — Director Compensation. In the case of options, RSUs and performance share units ("PSUs") issued to Mr. Mionis, see Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Compensation of Named Executive Officers — Option-Based and Share-Based Awards. As an executive officer of the Corporation, Mr. Mionis has not received any DSUs.

⁽¹⁾

Mr. Cascella was appointed to the Board effective February 1, 2019.

⁽²⁾

See Table 7: Directors' Attendance at Board and Committee Meetings for disclosure for all directors of board and standing committee meeting attendance.

⁽³⁾

See — Directors' Ownership of Securities — Director Share Ownership Guidelines for a description of the shareholding requirements for applicable directors. New directors have five years from the time of their appointment to the Board to comply with the Director Share Ownership Guidelines (as defined below). The "Actual Value" of the shares and DSU/RSUs held as of December 31, 2019 is determined with respect to all SVS beneficially owned, all unvested RSUs and all DSUs, the value of which was, in each case, determined using a share price of $8.27, the closing price of SVS on the NYSE on December 31, 2019.

⁽⁴⁾

As President and CEO of the Corporation, Mr. Mionis is subject to the Executive Share Ownership Guidelines and not the Director Share Ownership Guidelines. See Executive Share Ownership. The "Actual Value" of the shares and share units held by Mr. Mionis as of December 31, 2019 includes all SVS beneficially owned by Mr. Mionis, all of his unvested RSUs and his PSUs that vested on January 31, 2020. The value of such RSUs and PSUs was determined using a share price of $8.27, the closing price of SVS on the NYSE on December 31, 2019.

⁽⁵⁾

Mr. Popatia, as an officer of Onex, is not subject to the Director Share Ownership Guidelines.

None of the current directors of the Corporation serve together as directors of other corporations.

Director Compensation

Director compensation is set by the Board on the recommendation of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the "HRCC") and in accordance with director compensation guidelines and principles established by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Under these guidelines and principles, the Board seeks to maintain director compensation at a level that is competitive with director compensation at comparable companies, and requires a substantial portion of such compensation to be taken in the form of DSUs (or, at a director's election, RSUs, if the Director Share Ownership Guidelines described below have been met). The director fee structure for 2019 is set forth in Table 2 below.

Table 2: Directors' Fees⁽¹⁾

Effective January 1, 2019, each director must elect to receive 0%, 25% or 50% of their annual board fees, committee chair retainer fees and travel fees (collectively, "Annual Fees") in cash, with the balance in DSUs, until such director has satisfied the requirements of the Director Share Ownership Guidelines described (and defined) under Director Share Ownership Guidelines below. Once a director has satisfied such requirements, the director may then elect to receive 0%, 25% or 50% of their Annual Fees in cash, with the balance either in DSUs or RSUs. If a director does not make an election, 100% of such director's Annual Fees will be paid in DSUs.

Subject to the terms of the Directors' Share Compensation Plan, each DSU represents the right to receive one SVS or an equivalent value in cash (at the Corporation's discretion) when the director (a) ceases to be a director of the Corporation and (b) is not an employee of the Corporation or a director or employee of any corporation that does not deal at arm's-length with the Corporation (collectively, "Retires"). RSUs granted to directors are governed by the terms of the Corporation's Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"). Each quarterly grant of RSUs will vest in instalments of one-third per year on the first, second and third anniversary dates of the grant. Each vested RSU entitles the holder thereof to one SVS; however, if permitted by the Corporation under the terms of the grant, a director may elect to receive a payment of cash in lieu of SVS. Unvested RSUs will vest immediately on the date that the director Retires. The date used in valuing DSUs and RSUs that vest on retirement for settlement purposes is the date that is 45 days following the date on which the director Retires, or as soon as practicable thereafter. Such DSUs and RSUs, as applicable, are redeemed and payable on or prior to the 90^th day following the date on which the director Retires.

Grants of DSUs and RSUs are credited quarterly in arrears. The number of DSUs and RSUs, as applicable, granted is calculated by multiplying the amount of such director's Annual Fees for the quarter by the percentage of the Annual Fees that the director elected to receive in the form of DSUs or RSUs, as applicable, and dividing the product by the closing price of the SVS on the NYSE on the last business day of the quarter.
