FINANCING THE TRANSACTION

Financing Highlights

• $225 million Public Bought Deal of subscription receipts
• $197 million Private Placement of subscription receipts
• $400 million New Revolving Credit Facility and a $225 million Bridge Facility from Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Bank of Montreal and National Bank of Canada
• Adoption of a dividend reinvestment plan (the "DRIP"):
• All existing shareholders and holders of Subscription Receipts and Private Placement Subscription Receipts are entitled to participate in the DRIP and to receive Common Shares issued under the DRIP upon the closing of the Transaction
• Commitment from CPPIB and the Caisse to participate in the DRIP with respect to dividends for which the record date is on or prior to July 1^st, 2013, subject to the Lock-Up Period (as defined below)

Public Offering of Subscription Receipts on a Bought Deal Basis

To finance the payment of a portion of the Purchase Price and related expenses, GENIVAR has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of underwriters co-led by CIBC, BMO Capital Markets ("BMO"), National Bank Financial ("NBF") and Barclays (and collectively, the "Co-Lead Underwriters") to sell, on a bought deal basis, subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") of GENIVAR from treasury at a price of $24.00 per Subscription Receipt (the "Offer Price"). The agreement with the Co-Lead Underwriters includes the issuance of 9,375,000 Subscription Receipts for gross proceeds of $225 million (the "Offering"). In addition, the Underwriters have been granted an over-allotment option, exercisable in whole or in part at the Offer Price for a period of 30 days from the closing date of the Offering, for additional gross proceeds of up to approximately $34 million. The Subscription Receipts will be offered in all provinces of Canada, pursuant to a short form prospectus to be filed in each of the provinces of Canada by GENIVAR in accordance with National Instrument 44-101 - Short Form Prospectus Distributions.

Holder of Subscription Receipts upon closing of the transaction will be entitled to receive an amount for each Subscription Receipt equivalent to the dividends payable by the Company on the Common Shares relating to the June 29, 2012 record date.

The proceeds from the Offering will be held in escrow pending the completion of the Transaction. If the Transaction is completed on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Montreal Time) on December 4, 2012, the net proceeds will be released and each holder of a Subscription Receipt will receive, without additional consideration and without further action, one common share of GENIVAR (the "Common Shares") for each Subscription Receipt held upon closing of the Transaction. If the Transaction does not occur on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Montreal Time) on December 4, 2012, the Scheme is not approved or the related capital reduction is not approved at the Court hearing; or the Corporation advises the Co-Lead Underwriters or announces to the public that it does not intend to proceed with the Transaction, the holders of Subscription Receipts will receive a cash payment equal to the offering price of the Subscription Receipts plus their pro rata share of the interest earned on the escrowed funds during the term of the escrow. 50% of the underwriters' fee in the aggregate amount of $9 million, representing 4% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering, will be paid upon closing of the Offering and the other 50% will be paid upon closing of the Transaction.

The issuance of the Subscription Receipts and underlying Common Shares pursuant to the Offering are subject to customary approvals of applicable securities regulatory authorities, including the Toronto Stock Exchange. Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about June 27, 2012.

Private Placement of Subscription Receipts

Concurrently with the Offering, GENIVAR has entered into subscription agreements under which the Corporation will complete a private placement with CPPIB and the Caisse, pursuant to which CPPIB and the Caisse will purchase on a "private placement" basis, 8,210,610 Subscription Receipts (the "Placement Subscription Receipts") at $24.00 per Placement Subscription Receipt for gross proceeds to the Corporation of $197 million upon closing (the "Concurrent Private Placement"). Upon closing of the Transaction, each of CPPIB and the Caisse will be entitled to a non-refundable capital commitment payment equal to 4% of the aggregate purchase price for the Placement Subscription Receipts for which each of them has subscribed.

Assuming completion of the Concurrent Private Placement and the Offering and the issuance of all underlying Common Shares to the holders of Subscription Receipts and Placement Subscription Receipts, but not the exercise of the over-allotment option, CPPIB and the Caisse will each beneficially own, or exercise control or direction over, directly or indirectly, an aggregate of 7,363,005 and 7,355,305 Common Shares, respectively (which includes the 3,257,700 and 3,250,000 Common Shares which CPPIB and the Caisse, respectively, currently beneficially own, or exercise control or direction over, directly or indirectly), representing approximately 14.6% and 14.6%, respectively, of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. The Placement Subscription Receipts and the underlying Common Shares issued pursuant to the Concurrent Private Placement will be subject to a statutory hold period, and CPPIB and the Caisse have agreed not to sell any of the underlying Common Shares and the Common Shares they hold until June 21, 2013 inclusively, provided that one third of such Common Shares will cease to be subject to these restrictions on December 21, 2012, another third on March 21, 2013 and the remaining third on June 21, 2013 (the "Lock-Up Period"), unless otherwise approved by the Corporation.

New Credit Facilities

Concurrently with the announcement of the Transaction, the Corporation entered into a new credit agreement with Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Bank of Montreal and National Bank of Canada as co-lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, (collectively the "Agents"), providing for (a) a committed revolving credit facility in the maximum amount of $400 million (the "New Revolving Credit Facility"), and (b) a committed non-revolving bridge facility in the maximum amount of $225 million (the "Bridge Facility").

The proceeds of the New Revolving Credit Facility would be used to (i) repay any outstanding amounts due under the existing credit agreement of GENIVAR and to finance a portion of the Purchase Price payable on the closing date of the Transaction by the Corporation, (ii) to refinance all or part of the existing indebtedness of WSP, (iii) to finance the costs of the Transaction, and (iv) to finance the working capital requirements of the Corporation. The Bridge Facility is to be used in certain circumstances to back-stop a portion of the Purchase Price payable in connection with the Transaction. As security for the obligations of the Corporation under the New Revolving Credit Facility and the Bridge Facility (collectively, the "Credit Facilities"), the Corporation and certain of its Subsidiaries have granted, in favour and for the benefit of the Agents, hypothecs and liens charging all of their present and future movable property. The Credit Facilities provide for covenants and ratios applicable to the Corporation on a consolidated basis.

Closing Dates and Conditions for Closing

The Transaction, which has been approved by the Board of Directors of GENIVAR and recommended by the Board of Directors of WSP, is subject to customary closing conditions.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

GENIVAR also announced that its Board of Directors has approved the adoption of a DRIP for the Corporation's Canadian resident registered and beneficial shareholders ("Eligible Shareholders"). The DRIP comes into effect as of today and will commence with the previously announced July 15, 2012 dividend. The DRIP allows Eligible Shareholders to direct cash dividends paid on all or a portion of their Common Shares to be reinvested in additional Common Shares, which will be issued at a price which will vary, depending on whether the Corporation directs the agent under the DRIP to buy the Common Shares through a market purchase or a treasury purchase. Common Shares acquired from treasury may, at the election of the Corporation, be issued at the market price of the Common Shares as determined in accordance with the DRIP.

In connection with the Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement, holders of Subscription Receipts and Concurrent Private Placement Subscription Receipts will be entitled to participate in the DRIP and to receive Common Shares issued under the DRIP upon the closing of the Transaction. CPPIB and the Caisse have undertaken to enroll substantially all of the Common Shares held by them in the DRIP in accordance with the Lock-Up Period, providing GENIVAR with additional cash flow flexibility. Further to the commitment by CPPIB and the Caisse, the Corporation has committed to issue from treasury all Common Shares to be issued to participants under the DRIP at a minimum 2% discount. The undertaking to provide such 2% will be offered to all participants in the DRIP but may be withdrawn by the Corporation at any time, subject to any specific agreement entered into by the Company.

To participate in the DRIP, registered Eligible Shareholders must deliver a properly completed enrollment form to the agent, as directed under the DRIP, by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Montreal time) on a dividend record date in order for the cash dividend to which such record date relates to be reinvested under the DRIP.

Beneficial Eligible Shareholders (owners of Common Shares that are held through a nominee) who wish to participate in the DRIP should contact the broker, investment dealer, financial institution or other nominee who holds their Common Shares to inquire about the applicable enrollment deadline and to request enrollment in the DRIP.

Copies of the DRIP and the enrollment form will be available in due time through the agent's website and on the Corporation's website at www.genivar.com under the heading "Investor Relations - Dividend". Eligible Shareholders are urged to carefully read the complete text of the DRIP before making any decisions regarding their participation in the DRIP.

No commissions, service charges or brokerage fees will be payable by DRIP participants in connection with their purchase of Common Shares from treasury. However, beneficial Eligible Shareholders who wish to participate in the DRIP through the broker, investment dealer, financial institution or other nominee who holds their Common Shares should consult that nominee to confirm what fees, if any, the nominee may charge to enroll in the DRIP on their behalf or whether the nominee's policies might result in any costs otherwise becoming payable by the beneficial Eligible Shareholder.

Participation in the DRIP will not relieve DRIP participants of any liability for taxes that may be payable on dividends paid on Common Shares. Eligible Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the tax implications of their participation in the DRIP regarding their own particular circumstances.

The Common Shares and the Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the DRIP are not, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and accordingly, the Common Shares issued pursuant to the DRIP are not being publicly offered for sale in the United States or in any of the territories or possessions thereof or any other jurisdictions or to or for the benefit of "U.S. Persons" (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended). Participation in the DRIP will not be accepted from any person or person's agent who is not an Eligible Shareholder.

Forward-looking information
This press release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws. All information and statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this press release are forward-looking information. These statements are "forward-looking" because they are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions, risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are typically identified by future or conditional verbs such as "outlook", "believe", "anticipate", "estimate", "project", "expect", "intend", "plan" and terms and expressions of similar import. Such forward-looking information may include, without limitation, statements with respect to: the use of proceeds of the Offering, the Concurrent Private Placement and the New Credit Facilities, the expected financial performance, the business model and acquisition strategy, the dividend policy, the completion of the Offering, the Concurrent Private Placement and the Transaction, the anticipated indebtedness to be incurred under the New Credit Facilities, the anticipated benefits derived from the DRIP, the expected Transaction Closing Date and the anticipated benefits of the Transaction.

The forward-looking information is based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by the Corporation, including expectations and assumptions concerning availability of capital resources, performance of operating facilities, strength of market conditions, customer demand, satisfaction of all conditions of closing of the Transaction, absence of exercise of any termination right and the timing and receipt of regulatory approval with respect to the Offering. Although the Corporation believes that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking information is based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking information since no assurance can be given that they will prove to be correct.

Since forward-looking information addresses future events and conditions, by its very nature it involves inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, possible failure to realize anticipated benefits of the Transaction, possible failure to complete the Transaction, absence of deal protection mechanisms, change of control, exchange rate risk at closing, foreign currency exposure, potential undisclosed liabilities associated with the Transaction, increased indebtedness, nature of acquisitions, market for securities, volatile market price, escrow release condition, dilutive effects on holders of Common Shares, organic business growth, foreign operations, foreign currency risk, joint venture partners, current economic environment, pension schemes, anti-bribery laws and anti-corruption practices.

To the extent any forward-looking information in this press release constitutes future-oriented financial information or financial outlooks, within the meaning of securities laws, such information is being provided to demonstrate the potential benefits of the Offering, the Transaction, the Concurrent Private Placement and the New Credit Facilities and readers are cautioned that this information may not be appropriate for any other purpose. Future-oriented financial information and financial outlooks, as with forward-looking information generally, are, without limitation, based on the assumptions and subject to the risks set out above.

The reader is further cautioned that the preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make certain judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

The forward-looking information contained herein is expressly qualified in its entirety by this cautionary statement. The forward-looking information contained herein is made as of the date of this press release, and the Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking information to reflect new information, subsequent or otherwise, unless required by applicable securities laws.

Reference in this press release to "EBITDA" is to earnings before financial expenses, income tax expenses, depreciation and amortization, share-based payments including, for greater clarity, share of profit from investments and jointly controlled entities and, adjusted for exceptional items. Investors are cautioned that EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net earnings for the period (as determined in accordance with IFRS), as an indicator of the Corporation's performance, or an alternative to cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities as a measure of the Corporation's liquidity and cash flows.

This press release refers to financial measures that are not recognized under IFRS. While GENIVAR and certain other issuers measure and evaluate the performance of their respective consolidated operations and business segments with reference to non-IRFS measures, non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are directed to the section entitled "Non-IFRS Measures" in the prospectus of GENIVAR to be filed in connection with the Offering.
