The Issuer shall include in such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities provided however that the Issuer shall not be required to register any Shares that are eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 10, if the Issuer receives a comment from the SEC which effectively results in the Issuer having to reduce the number of Registrable Securities included on such Registration Statement, then the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, reduce on a pro rata basis the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration Statement.

10.2            In connection with each Registration Statement, the Subscriber will furnish to the Issuer in writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws. The Issuer may require the Subscriber to furnish to the Issuer a certified statement as to the number of common shares beneficially owned by the Subscriber and the name of the natural person thereof that has voting and dispositive control over the Registrable Securities.

10.3            All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with the filing of the Registration Statement shall be borne by the Issuer whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with the NASDAQ Capital Market, the Toronto Stock Exchange or other exchange or quotation service on which the common shares of the Issuer are then listed for trading, and (B) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws), (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is reasonably requested by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuer, (v) 1933 Act liability insurance, if the Issuer so desires such insurance, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other persons retained by the Issuer in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement. In addition, the Issuer shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange, if applicable. In no event shall the Issuer be responsible for any broker or similar commissions or, except to the extent provided for hereunder, any legal fees or other costs of the Subscriber.

10.4            The Issuer shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber, its officers, directors, agents and employees, and each person who controls the Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act) and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses” ), as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding the Subscriber furnished in writing to the Issuer by the Subscriber expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to the Subscriber or the Subscriber’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by the Subscriber expressly for use in the Registration Statement, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the use by the Subscriber of an outdated or defective Registration Statement after the Issuer has notified the Subscriber in writing that the Registration Statement is outdated or defective.

10.5            The Subscriber shall indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each person who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act and Section 20 of the 1934 Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon: (x) the Subscriber’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act or (y) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by the Subscriber to the Issuer specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or (ii) to the extent that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding the Subscriber furnished in writing to the Issuer by the Subscriber expressly for use therein, or (iii) to the extent that such information relates to the Subscriber or the Subscriber’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by the Subscriber expressly for use in the Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (z) the use by the Subscriber of an outdated or defective Registration Statement after the Issuer has notified the Subscriber in writing that the Registration Statement is outdated or defective. In no event shall the liability of the Subscriber hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.


- 14 -

10.6            If a claim for indemnification hereunder is unavailable to either the Issuer or the Subscriber (in each case, an “Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties” , as applicable) (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Subscription, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this section was available to such party in accordance with its terms. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this section were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, no Subscriber shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by the Subscriber from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that the Subscriber has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by the Subscriber.

Guidance On Accredited Investor Exemptions for Individuals

An individual accredited investor is an individual:

  (a)

who, either alone or with a spouse, beneficially owns financial assets (please see the guidance below regarding what financial assets are) having an aggregate realizable value that. before taxes but net of any related liabilities (please see the guidance below regarding what related liabilities are), exceeds $1,000,000;

     
  (b)

whose net income before taxes exceeded $200,000 in each of the 2 most recent calendar years or whose net income before taxes combined with that of a spouse exceeded $300,000 in each of the 2 most recent calendar years and who, in either case, reasonably expects to exceed that net income level in the current calendar year;

     
  (c)

who, either alone or with a spouse, has net assets (please see the guidance below regarding calculating net assets) of at least $5,000,000; and

     
  (d)

who beneficially owns financial assets (please see the guidance below regarding what financial assets are) having an aggregate realizable value that, before taxes but net of any related liabilities (please see the guidance below regarding what related liabilities are), exceeds $5,000,000.

The monetary thresholds above are intended to create bright-line standards. Subscribers who do not satisfy these monetary thresholds do not qualify as accredited investors.

Spouses

Sections (a), (b) and (c) above are designed to treat spouses as a single investing unit, so that either spouse qualifies as an accredited investor if the combined financial assets of both spouses exceed $1,000,000, the combined net income of both spouses exceeds $300,000, or the combined net assets of both spouses exceed $5,000,000. Section (d) above does not treat spouses as a single investing unit.

If the combined net income of both spouses does not exceed $300,000, but the net income of one of the spouses exceeds $200,000, only the spouse whose net income exceeds $200,000 qualifies as an accredited investor.

Financial Assets and Related Liabilities

For the purposes of Sections (a) and (d) above, “ financial assets ” means: (1) cash, (2) securities, or (3) a contract of insurance, a deposit or an evidence of a deposit that is not a security for the purposes of securities legislation. These financial assets are generally liquid or relatively easy to liquidate. The value of a subscriber’s personal residence is not included in a calculation of financial assets.

The calculation of financial assets must exclude “ related liabilities ”, meaning: (1) liabilities incurred or assumed for the purpose of financing the acquisition or ownership of financial assets, or (2) liabilities that are secured by financial assets.


- 25 -

As a general matter, it should not be difficult to determine whether financial assets are beneficially owned by an individual, an individual’s spouse, or both, in any particular instance. However, in the case where financial assets are held in a trust or in another type of investment vehicle for the benefit of an individual, there may be questions as to whether the individual beneficially owns the financial assets. The following factors are indicative of beneficial ownership of financial assets:

  physical or constructive possession of evidence of ownership of the financial asset;
     
  entitlement to receipt of any income generated by the financial asset;
     
  risk of loss of the value of the financial asset; and
     
  the ability to dispose of the financial asset or otherwise deal with it as the individual sees fit.

For example, securities held in a self-directed RRSP for the sole benefit of an individual are beneficially owned by that individual.

In general, financial assets in a spousal RRSP can be included for the purposes of the $1,000,000 financial asset test in Section (a) above because Section (a) takes into account financial assets owned beneficially by a spouse. However, financial assets in a spousal RRSP cannot be included for purposes of the $5,000,000 financial asset test in Section (d) above.

Financial assets held in a group RRSP under which the individual does not have the ability to acquire the financial assets and deal with them directly do not meet the beneficial ownership requirements in either Sections (a) or (d) above.

Net Assets

For the purposes of Section (c) above, “ net assets ” means all of a subscriber’s total assets minus all of the subscriber’s total liabilities. Accordingly, for the purposes of the net asset test, the calculation of total assets includes the value of a subscriber’s personal residence, and the calculation of total liabilities includes the amount of any liability (such as a mortgage) in respect of the subscriber’s personal residence.

To calculate a subscriber’s net assets under the net asset test, subtract the subscriber’s total liabilities from the subscriber’s total assets. The value attributed to assets should reasonably reflect their estimated fair value. Income tax is considered a liability if the obligation to pay it is outstanding at the time of the distribution of the security to the subscriber by the Issuer.

Guidance On Accredited Investor Exemptions for Corporations, Trusts and Other Entities

Accredited investors that are corporations, trusts or other entities include:

  (a)

a corporation, trust or other entity, other than an investment fund, that has net assets (please see the guidance below regarding calculating net assets) of at least $5,000,000 as shown on its most recently prepared financial statements in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles and that has not been created or used solely to purchase or hold securities as an accredited investor;

     
  (b)

a corporation, trust or other entity in respect of which all of the owners of interests, direct, indirect or beneficial, except the voting securities required by law to be owned by directors, are persons that are accredited investors; and



- 26 -

  (c)

a trust established by an accredited investor for the benefit of the accredited investor’s family members of which a majority of the trustees are accredited investors and all of the beneficiaries are the accredited investor’s spouse, a former spouse of the accredited investor or a parent, grandparent, brother, sister, child or grandchild of that accredited investor, of that accredited investor’s spouse or of that accredited investor’s former spouse.

Net Assets

For the purposes of Section (a) above, “ net assets ” means all of the subscriber’s total assets minus all of the subscriber’s total liabilities. The minimum net asset threshold of $5,000,000 specified in Section (a) above must be shown on the entity’s most recently prepared financial statements. The financial statements must be prepared in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles.

Guidance on Close Personal Friend and Close Business Associate Determination

A “ close personal friend ” of a director, executive officer, founder or control person of an issuer is an individual who knows the director, executive officer, founder or control person well enough and has known them for a sufficient period of time to be in a position to assess their capabilities and trustworthiness and to obtain information from them with respect to the investment.

The following factors are relevant to this determination:

  (a)

the length of time the individual has known the director, executive officer, founder or control person,

     
  (b)

the nature of the relationship between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person including such matters as the frequency of contacts between them and the level of trust and reliance in the other circumstances, and

     
  (c)

the number of “close personal friends” of the director, executive officer, founder or control person to whom securities have been distributed in reliance on the private issuer exemption or the family, friends and business associates exemption.

An individual is not a close personal friend solely because the individual is:

  (a)

a relative,

     
  (b)

a member of the same club, organization, association or religious group,

     
  (c)

a co-worker, colleague or associate at the same workplace,

     
  (d)

a client, customer, former client or former customer,

     
  (e)

a mere acquaintance, or

     
  (f)

connected through some form of social media, such as Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn.

The relationship between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person must be direct. For example, the exemption is not available to a close personal friend of a close personal friend of a director of the issuer. Further, a relationship that is primarily founded on participation in an internet forum is not considered to be that of a close personal friend.


- 27 -

A “ close business associate ” is an individual who has had sufficient prior business dealings with a director, executive officer, founder or control person of the issuer to be in a position to assess their capabilities and trustworthiness and to obtain information from them with respect to the investment.

The following factors are relevant to this determination:

  (a)

the length of time the individual has known the director, executive officer, founder or control person,

     
  (b)

the nature of any specific business relationships between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person, including, for each relationship, when it began, the frequency of contact between them and when it terminated if it is not ongoing, and the level of trust and reliance in the other circumstances,

     
  (c)

the nature and number of any business dealings between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person, the length of the period during which they occurred, and the nature and date of the most recent business dealing, and

     
  (d)

the number of “close business associates” of the director, executive officer, founder or control person to whom securities have been distributed in reliance on the private issuer exemption or the family, friends and business associates exemption.

An individual is not a close business associate solely because the individual is:

  (a)

a member of the same club, organization, association or religious group,

     
  (b)

a co-worker, colleague or associate at the same workplace,

     
  (c)

a client, customer, former client or former customer,

     
  (d)

a mere acquaintance, or

     
  (e)

connected through some form of social media, such as Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn.

The relationship between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person must be direct. For example, the exemptions are not available for a close business associate of a close business associate of a director of the issuer. Further, a relationship that is primarily founded on participation in an internet forum is not considered to be that of a close business associate.

The Subscriber agrees that the above representations and warranties will be true and correct both as of the execution of this Questionnaire and as of the Closing and acknowledges that they will survive the completion of the issue of the Shares.

UNITED STATES ACCREDITED INVESTOR QUESTIONNAIRE

CounterPath Announces Closing of Private Placement

VANCOUVER, BC, Canada — January 24, 2018 — CounterPath Corporation (“CounterPath” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CPAH) (TSX: PATH), a global provider of award-winning, over-the-top (OTT) Unified Communications (UC) solutions for enterprises and carriers, announced today the closing of a non-brokered private placement of 427,500 shares of common stock (each, a “Share”) of the Company at a price of US$4.01 for gross proceeds of US$1,714,275 (the “Offering”).

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to (1) expand sales and business development resources; (2) fund development for integration of the Company’s UC solutions with other enterprise applications; and (3) for general corporate purposes.

Wesley Clover International Corporation, the Company’s largest shareholder, and KMB Trac Two Holdings Ltd. (“KMB”), the Company’s second largest shareholder, subscribed for an aggregate of 250,000 Shares. The Offering constituted a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The issuance to the insiders is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 because neither the fair market value of the subject matter of the transaction nor the consideration paid exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization. As the Offering is a related party transaction and was announced less than 21 days before its closing, MI 61-101 requires the Company to explain why the shorter period was reasonable or necessary in the circumstances. In the view of the Company it was necessary to immediately close the Offering and therefore, such shorter period was reasonable and necessary in the circumstances to improve the Company’s financial position.

All of the securities issued by the Company in connection with the Offering will be subject to a hold period expiring on May 25, 2018 under Canadian securities laws and a hold period under United States securities laws. None of the securities to be issued will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and none of them may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state where such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.
