overdue interest at the said rate.
2. (a) As security for the payment of the Obligations, the Company hereby
grants a security interest in and pledges the Collateral to and in

be continuing, the Company shall be entitled to receive all

be continuing, the Company shall be entitled to vote the Collateral
and to give consents, waivers, notices and ratifications, and to
take other action in respect of the Collateral, provided, however,

(h) It is understood and agreed that the Holder, at any time and
from time to time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and

debts generally as they become due or takes action in
furtherance of any of the aforesaid purposes; or
(v) if any event of default or any event which, with the passage of
time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event
of default, as defined in the indentures or instruments under

be classified as a liability on a consolidated balance sheet)
in an aggregate amount equal to or greater than U.S.
$3,000,000, shall have occurred and be continuing, and the
trustees or holders of such indebtedness have accelerated the
maturity of such indebtedness; or

from and including the date of demand or, if the Holder has taken
steps to exercise its rights under paragraph (b) of this section 3,
from and including the date upon which the cost or expense is

accountable for any failure, to enforce payment or performance of
the Obligations or to exercise any of its rights and remedies
hereunder and shall not be under any obligation to institute
proceedings for any of such purposes.
(f) At any time before the Holder has disposed of the Collateral

or part of the Collateral irrevocably, the Company may redeem the
Collateral by satisfying all of its obligations and liabilities
under this Debenture.
(g) The Company irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Holder
and its directors and officers holding office from time to time as
the true and lawful attorneys of the Company with full power of
substitution in the name of the Company to do any and all such acts
or things or execute and deliver all such agreements, documents and
instruments as the Holder, in its sole discretion, considers
necessary or desirable to carry out the provisions and purposes of
this Debenture or to exercise its rights and remedies hereunder,
including, without in any way limiting the generality of the
foregoing: (i) transferring any or all of the Collateral into the
name of the Holder or to any person who acquires the same pursuant
to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this section 3; (ii)
endorsing, negotiating or redeeming any Collateral; (iii) exercising
any voting rights associated with the Collateral and executing any
proxies or similar instruments in furtherance thereof; and (iv)
realizing or collecting any Proceeds or any dividends, principal,
interest or other payments on the Collateral or in respect thereof.
The Company hereby ratifies and agrees to ratify all acts of any
such attorney taken or done in accordance with this paragraph (g).
This power of attorney
<PAGE> 12
-8-
being coupled with an interest shall not be revoked or terminated
by any act or thing and shall remain in full force and effect until
this Debenture has been terminated.
(h) The Company will, from time to time at the request of the
Holder, make and do all such acts and things and execute and deliver
all such instruments, agreements and documents as the Holder shall
reasonably request by notice in writing given to the Holder in order
to create, preserve, perfect, validate or otherwise protect the
Security Interest, to enable the Holder to exercise and enforce any
of its rights and remedies hereunder and generally to carry out the
provisions and purposes of this Debenture.
4. The Company hereby covenants and agrees with the Holder that until all
monies owing hereunder are paid in full it will take or cause to be taken all
such steps and actions to ensure that an Event of Default shall not occur.
5. (a) The Holder shall have the option exercisable on five days' written
notice given by the Holder to the Company, to require the repayment of
all (but not less than all) of the Principal Amount, together with all
accrued but unpaid interest thereon, (collectively, the "Repayment
Amount") by the transfer to the Holder of such number of common shares
of Intek equal to the Repayment Amount divided by U.S. $3.25, rounded
up to the next whole number (the "Repayment Shares").
(b) The Company covenants and agrees that the Repayment Shares (or any
securities to which the Holder may become entitled to pursuant to
paragraph (c) of this section 5 following a Capital Reorganization (as
defined below)) shall upon the exercise by the Holder of its option
pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section 5: (i) have been registered
under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"), or
(ii) shall otherwise be "unrestricted" (subject to any applicable 40
day restricted period pursuant to Regulation S made under the 1933 Act
("Regulation S")) for the purposes of the 1933 Act and no legend or
restriction on transfer shall
<PAGE> 13
-9-
be required to be applied to the Repayment Shares, and the holder
shall have received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to it, acting
reasonably, to such effect.
(c) If there occurs after the date hereof a reclassification of
the outstanding common shares of Intek (including a subdivision or
consolidation thereof) or a change or exchange of common shares of
Intek into or for other shares or into or for other securities or
any other capital reorganization, or a consolidation, amalgamation
or merger of Intek with or into any other corporation or other
entity, or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of Intek as an
entirety to another corporation or entity in which the holders of
common shares of Intek are entitled to receive shares, other
securities or other property (any of which events is hereinafter
referred to as a "Capital Reorganization"), and after the effective
date of such Capital Reorganization the Holder exercises its right
pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section 5 to have the Principal
Amount prepaid, such right will consist of the right to receive
payment of all (but not less than all) of the Principal Amount and
any accrued but unpaid interest thereon by the transfer to the
Holder of the aggregate number of common shares of Intek, other
securities or other property which the Holder would have been
entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if,
immediately prior to such Capital Reorganization being effected, the
Holder had been the registered holder of the Repayment Shares.
(d) On the happening of each and every Capital Reorganization,
the applicable provisions of this Debenture shall be deemed to be
amended accordingly, including, without limitation, the definition
of Repayment Shares which shall be amended such that it includes all
shares, other securities and other property received on the most
recent Capital Reorganization as a result of being the registered
holder of the Repayment Shares as well as any shares, other
securities or other property constituting part of the Repayment
Shares which were not changed, exchanged or otherwise affected by
the most recent Capital Reorganization.
<PAGE> 14
-10-
(e) Notwithstanding any provision hereof, the Repayment Shares or
other securities or other property received on a Capital
Reorganization and transferred to the Holder pursuant to this
section 5 shall prior to such transfer be beneficially owned by the
Company free and clear of all liens, claims, charges or encumbrances
whatsoever and the Repayment Shares, or such other securities or
other property shall be registered under applicable United States
federal securities law and regulations or otherwise freely tradeable
in the United States. The Holder represents and warrants in
connection therewith, and acknowledges that the Company is relying
on such representation and warranty in entering into this Debenture,
that it is not a "U.S. Person" as defined in Rule 901(o) of
Regulation S and covenants that, prior to the expiration of the
forty day period beginning with the date of the exercise of the
option provided for in section 5(a), it will not transfer any of the
Repayment Shares received on the exercise of that option to or for
the account or benefit of any "U.S. Person" as defined in Rule
901(o) of Regulation S.
6. (a) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein, the Company shall not
be obliged to make any payments of interest or other amounts payable
to the Holder hereunder in excess of the amount or rate which would
be prohibited by applicable law or would result in the receipt by the
Holder of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed
under the Criminal Code (Canada)).
(b) For the purposes of this Debenture, whenever any interest is
calculated on the basis of a period of time other than a calendar
year, the annual rate of interest to which each rate of interest
determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent for the
purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) is such rate as so determined
multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in
which the same is to be ascertained and divided by the number of
days used in the basis for such determination. The Company shall
not be required to make any payment of interest hereunder or any
<PAGE> 15
-11-
portion thereof to the extent that such payment or such portion
thereof would be made in violation of any provision of the Interest
Act (Canada).
7. Subject to section 5 hereof, payments of the Principal Amount and interest
thereon and any other amount payable hereunder shall be made in lawful money of
the United States of America by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
the account of the Holder at Chase Manhatten Bank, Building F, Chase Metrotec
Centre, New York, New York 11245 U.S.A for the account of Mees Pierson NV,
London a/c 0011624426 for the favour of Mees Pierson ICS Ltd. a/c 20005461,
swift code chasuss33, or to such other account or in such other manner as shall
have been designated by the Holder by written notice to the Company.
8. If the date on which any payment is required to be made pursuant to the
provisions of this Debenture occurs on a day which is not a Business Day, such
payment shall be due and payable on the immediately succeeding Business Day.
9. Subject to sections 3 and 5 hereof, no prepayment of the Principal Amount
may be made.
10. Upon the satisfaction of the Obligations, the Holder shall at its own
expense deliver to the Company possession of all Collateral and make and do all
such acts and things and execute and deliver all such instruments, agreements
and documents as the Company shall consider reasonably necessary or desirable
to discharge the Security Interest, to release and discharge the Collateral
therefrom and to record such release and discharge in all appropriate offices
of public record.
11. At any time and from time to time upon the Holder receiving:
<PAGE> 16
-12-
(a) an Officer's Certificate requesting that additional property
(the "Additional Collateral") specifically enumerated therein be
