inclusion in a Stock Option Agreement. The provisions of Stock Option Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

b. Number of Shares . Each Stock Option Agreement will specify the number of Shares that are subject to the Option and will provide for the adjustment of that number in accordance with Section 8. The Stock Option Agreement also will specify whether the Option is an ISO or NQSO. However, if any portion of an Option does not meet the requirements to qualify as an ISO, that portion will be an NQSO.

c. Exercise Price . Each Stock Option Agreement will specify the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price under any Option will be determined by the Board in its sole discretion, except that the Exercise Price may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, and any higher percentage required by Section 4(b).

d. Limitation on Amount . To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined with respect to each ISO as of the time the ISO is granted) of the Shares with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year (under all Plans of the Company and its Affiliates) exceeds $100,000, the option or portions of the option that exceed the limit (according to the order in which they were granted) will be treated as NQSOs.

e. Withholding Taxes . As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Optionee will make such arrangements as the Board may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise. The Optionee also will make such arrangements as the Board may require for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the disposition of Shares acquired by exercising an Option.

f. Vesting and Exercisability . Each Stock Option Agreement will specify when all or any installment of the Option becomes exercisable. Subject to TSX-V approval, Options shall vest as follows. All Options granted to individuals other than non-employee Directors will have a total vesting period of 24 months from the date of grant, with one quarter of the total Options granted vesting and becoming exercisable every six months. Options granted to non-employee Directors will vest and become 100% fully exercisable immediately upon grant. Options granted to Consultants, specifically Consultants engaged in investor relation activities, shall vest over 12 months, with ¼ of the total Options vesting every 3 months.

g. Accelerated Exercisability . Unless the applicable Stock Option Agreement provides otherwise, if the Company is subject to a Change in Control before the Optionee’s Service terminates, all of an Optionee’s Options will become exercisable in full, subject to such terms and conditions as the Board, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

h. Basic Term . The Stock Option Agreement will specify the term of the Option. The Board in its sole discretion may determine when an Option is to expire, except that the term may not exceed 5 years from the date of grant, or such other period of time as may be permissible pursuant to the rules of the TSX-V or other applicable stock exchange, and any shorter term required by Section 4(b).

i. Nontransferability . Options are non-assignable and non-transferable, except pursuant to a legal Conveyance resulting from the death of an Optionee to that optionee’s heirs or administrators.

6

j. Termination of Service (Except by Death) . Unless otherwise provided in an Optionee’s Stock Option Agreement, if an Optionee’s Service terminates for any reason other than the Optionee’s death, then the Optionee’s Options will expire on the earliest of the following:

i. The expiration date determined pursuant to subsection (h) above;

ii. The date that is three months after the date of the termination of the Optionee’s Service (or such other date not less than 30 days after termination as is specified in the Option Agreement or by amendment thereof), provided that Options granted to an Optionee who is engaged in Investor Relations Activities shall expire within 30 days after the Optionee ceases to be employed to provide Investor Relations Activities; or

The Optionee may exercise all or part of his or her Options at any time before the expiration of the Options under this subsection, but only to the extent that the Options had become exercisable before the date the Optionee’s Service terminated (or became exercisable as a result of the termination). The balance of the Options will lapse when the Optionee’s Service terminates. If the Optionee dies after the termination of his or her Service but before the expiration of the Optionee’s Options, all or part of the exercisable Options may be exercised at any time within 12 months after the death of the Optionee (or any longer period specified in the Option Agreement), provided that no Options may be exercised after the expiration date determined under subsection (h) above. The Option may be exercised by the Optionee, by the executors or administrators of the Optionee’s estate or by any person who has acquired the Options directly from the Optionee by beneficiary designation, bequest or inheritance. For purposes of this subsection (j), date of termination means the date the Optionee is given notice of termination by the Company. If exercise of the Option under subsection (ii) above would result in liability for the Optionee under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, then the three-month period automatically will be extended until the tenth day following the last date upon which the Optionee has any liability under Section 16(b), provided that no Options may be exercised after the expiration date provided under subsection (h).

k. Leaves of Absence . For purposes of subsection (j) above, Service will be deemed to continue while the Optionee is on sick leave, military leave or other bona fide leave of absence approved by the Company in writing, if the period of the leave does not exceed 90 days or, if longer, if the Optionee’s right to reemployment by the Company or any Affiliate is guaranteed either contractually or by statute, or if continued crediting of Service for this purpose is expressly required by the terms of the leave or by applicable law (as determined by the Company).

l. Death of Optionee . If an Optionee dies while in Service, then his or her Options expire on the earlier of the following dates:

i. The expiration date determined pursuant to subsection (h) above; or

ii. The date that is 12 months after the Optionee’s death.

At any time before the expiration of the Options under the preceding sentence, all or part of the Optionee’s Options may be exercised by the executors or administrators of the Optionee’s estate or by any person who has acquired the Options directly from the Optionee by beneficiary designation, bequest or inheritance, or in the case of NQSOs only, by other transfer, if permitted, but in any event only to the extent that the Options had become exercisable before the Optionee’s death or became exercisable as a result of death. The balance of the Options will lapse when the Optionee dies.

n. Modification, Extension and Assumption of Options . Within the limitations of the Plan, the Board may modify or extend outstanding Options. However, without the consent of the Optionee, no modification may impair the Optionee’s rights or increase the Optionee’s obligations under the Option.

o. Restrictions on Transfer of Shares . Any Shares issued on exercise of an Option will be subject to such special forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer restrictions as the Board may determine. These restrictions will be set forth in the applicable Stock Option Agreement and will apply in addition to any restrictions that may apply to holders of Shares generally. The Company will be under no obligation to sell or deliver Shares on exercise of Options under the Plan unless the Optionee executes an agreement giving effect to the restrictions in the form prescribed by the Company.

p. Additional Grants . If otherwise eligible, an Optionee may be granted an additional Option or Options under this Plan or any other share option or purchase plan of the Company.

q. Buyout Provisions . The Board may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as the Board establishes and communicates to the Optionee at the time that the offer is made. Any buyout of Options is conditional to the prior approval of the TSX-V. There is no assurance that the TSX-V would grant such approval.

r. Annual Limits. Subject to the policies of the TSX-V and obtaining disinterested shareholder approval, an Optionee may receive grants of no more than 5% of the outstanding Shares of the Company in any 12-month period.

s. Annual Consultant Limits . No more than 2% of the outstanding Shares of the Company may be granted to any one Consultant in any 12-month period.

SECTION 7. PAYMENT FOR SHARES

a. General Rule . The entire Exercise Price of Shares issued under the Plan is payable in cash or certified cheque when the Shares are purchased.

SECTION 8. ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES

a. General . If the outstanding shares of Stock of the Company are increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities of the

8

Company through a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction, the Board may make such appropriate and proportionate adjustments as it deems necessary or appropriate in one or more of (i) the number and class of Shares specified in Section 5, (ii) the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option and (iii) the Exercise Price under each outstanding Option. The Company is not required to issue fractional Shares as a result of any such adjustments.

b. Mergers and Consolidations . In the event that the Company is a party to a merger, consolidation or other reorganization, the Board may provide that outstanding Options will be subject to the agreement of merger, consolidation or other reorganization, which agreement, without the Optionees’ consent, may provide for the cancellation of each outstanding Option after payment to the Optionee of an amount in cash or cash equivalents equal to (i) the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option at the time of the merger, consolidation or other reorganization minus (ii) the Exercise Price of the Shares subject to the Option.

c. Reservation of Rights . Except as provided in this Section, an Optionee has no rights by reason of (i) any subdivision or consolidation of shares of any class, (ii) the payment of any dividend or (iii) any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of any class. Any issuance by the Company of shares of Stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of Stock of any class, will not affect the number or Exercise Price of Shares subject to an Option. The grant of an Option pursuant to the Plan will not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

SECTION 9. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES

c. Inability to Obtain Authority . The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares under this Plan, will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell those Shares as to which the requisite authority has not been obtained.

SECTION 10. NO RETENTION RIGHTS

     Nothing in the Plan or in any Option granted under the Plan will confer on the Optionee any right to continue in Service for any period of time or will interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Affiliate) or of the Optionee, which rights are expressly reserved by each, to terminate his or her Service at any time and for any reason.
