participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than SciVac, the SciVac Securityholders, any of their affiliates or its or their Representatives) regarding an Acquisition Proposal;

   

 

 
   

(iii)

approve, accept, endorse or recommend, or propose publicly to accept, approve, endorse or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal;

   

 

 
   

(iv)

accept or enter into or publicly propose to accept or enter into, any agreement, understanding or arrangement or other contract in respect of an Acquisition Proposal; or

(b)

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1 , Levon shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries and its and their Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any solicitation, encouragement, discussion or negotiation with any Persons (other than SciVac, the SciVac Securityholders and their respective Representatives) conducted heretofore by Levon, its subsidiaries or its or their respective Representatives with respect to any potential Acquisition Proposal and, in connection therewith, Levon will discontinue access to any of its confidential information (and not establish or allow access to any of its confidential information, or any data room, virtual or otherwise) and shall as soon as possible request, to the extent that it is entitled to do so (and exercise all rights it has to require) the return or destruction of all confidential information (including all material including or incorporating or otherwise reflecting any material confidential information) regarding Levon and its subsidiaries previously provided to any such Person or any other Person. Levon agrees that, except as permitted by Section 7.1(c) , neither it nor any of its subsidiaries shall terminate, waive, amend or modify any provision of any existing confidentiality agreement relating to a potential Acquisition Proposal or any standstill agreement to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party (it being acknowledged and agreed that the automatic termination of any standstill provisions of any such agreement as the result of the entering into and announcement of this Agreement by Levon, pursuant to the express terms of any such agreement, shall not be a violation of this Section 7.1(b)) and Levon undertakes to enforce all standstill, non-disclosure, non-disturbance, non-solicitation and similar covenants that it or any of its subsidiaries have entered into prior to the date hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the Levon Board from considering an Acquisition Proposal that is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal and accepting a Superior Proposal that might be made by any such third party, in each case subject to the terms of this Agreement.

 

 
69

 

 

(c)

Notwithstanding Sections 7.1(a) and 7.1(b) and any other provision of this Agreement or of any other agreement between SciVac and Levon, if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Levon Shareholder Approval of the Arrangement Resolution at the Levon Meeting, Levon receives a written Acquisition Proposal (that was not solicited after the date hereof in contravention of Section 7.1(a) and provided that Levon is in compliance with Sections 7.1(b) and 7.2(a)) , the Levon Board may (directly or through its advisors or Representatives):

 

   

(i)

if it believes, acting in good faith, that the Acquisition Proposal could reasonably lead to a Superior Proposal, contact the Person(s) making such Acquisition Proposal and its advisors solely for the purpose of clarifying such Acquisition Proposal and any material terms thereof and the conditions thereto and likelihood of consummation so as to determine whether such proposal is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a Superior Proposal; and

   

 

 
   

(ii)

if, in the opinion of the Levon Board, acting in good faith and after receiving advice from its outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, the Acquisition Proposal constitutes, if consummated in accordance with its terms (disregarding, for the purposes of any such determination, any term of such Acquisition Proposal that provides for a due diligence investigation), a Superior Proposal, then, and only in such case, Levon may:

 

     

(A)

furnish information with respect to Levon and its subsidiaries to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal; and/or

     

 

 
     

(B)

participate in discussions or negotiations with, the Person making such Acquisition Proposal; and/or

     

 

 
     

(C)

waive any standstill provision or agreement that would otherwise prohibit such person from making an Acquisition Proposal,

 

 
70

 

provided that Levon shall not, and shall not allow its Representatives to, disclose any non-public information with respect to Levon to such Person (i) if such non-public information has not been previously provided to, or is not concurrently provided to, SciVac; (ii) without entering into a confidentiality and standstill agreement (if one has not already been entered into) which is customary in such situations and which is no less favourable to Levon and no more favourable to the counterparty than the confidentiality and standstill provisions contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (an “ Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement ”); and (iii) without providing a copy of such confidentiality agreement to SciVac.

 

7.2 Notification of Acquisition Proposals

 

 

(a)

Levon shall promptly notify SciVac, at first orally and then in writing within 24 hours of receipt of any proposal, inquiry, offer or request received by Levon or its Representatives after the date hereof (i) relating to an Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal or inquiry that could reasonably lead to or be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) for discussions or negotiations in respect of an Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) for non-public information relating to Levon or its subsidiaries, access to properties, books and records or a list of the Levon Shareholders. Such notice shall indicate the identity of the Person making such proposal, inquiry or request, include a copy of the Acquisition Proposal and include a copy of any other documentation received by Levon or its Representatives and such other details of the Acquisition Proposal known to Levon as SciVac may reasonably request. Levon shall keep SciVac promptly and fully informed of the status, including any change to the material terms, of such proposal, inquiry, offer or request and shall respond promptly to all reasonable inquiries by SciVac with respect thereto and shall provide copies of any written documents or correspondence provided to Levon relating to such Acquisition Proposal.

 

 

 
 

(b)

Subject to Section 7.3(a) , at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining Levon Shareholder Approval, if Levon receives an Acquisition Proposal which the Levon Board concludes in good faith constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Levon Board may, subject to compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2 and Section 9.3 , terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal.

 

7.3 Responding to Acquisition Proposal and Superior Proposals

 

 

(a)

Notwithstanding Section 7.1 and subject to compliance with Levon’s obligations in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 , Levon may enter into a definitive agreement (a “ Proposed Agreement ”) with any third party providing for an Acquisition Proposal, if such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal; provided that Levon may do so only after Levon has provided SciVac with written notice that the Levon Board has determined that it has received a Superior Proposal (a “ Superior Proposal Notice ”), which identifies the party making the Superior Proposal, specifies the cash amount that the Levon Board has ascribed to any non-cash consideration being offered in the Superior Proposal, and provides SciVac with a copy of any Proposed Agreement, in each case not less than five (5) Business Days (the “ Response Period ”) prior to the proposed execution of such Proposed Agreement by Levon. For purposes of this Agreement, the Response Period shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the fifth (5 th ) Business Day following the day on which the Superior Proposal Notice and Proposed Agreement were provided to SciVac.

 

 
71

 

 

(b)

During the Response Period, Levon acknowledges and agrees that SciVac shall have the right, but not the obligation, to offer to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement (including increasing or modifying the consideration to be received by the Levon Shareholders) in order to provide for terms at least equivalent to those provided for in the Superior Proposal. If SciVac does so, then the Levon Board shall review any such proposal by SciVac to determine (acting in good faith and in accordance with its fiduciary duties) whether the Acquisition Proposal to which SciVac is responding would continue to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against the amended Agreement and Plan of Arrangement as proposed by SciVac. If the Levon Board determines that the Acquisition Proposal would thereby cease to be a Superior Proposal, it will cause Levon to enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement reflecting the offer by SciVac to amend the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Arrangement and will further agree not to enter into the applicable Proposed Agreement and not to withdraw, modify or change any recommendation regarding the Plan of Arrangement save and except to reaffirm its recommendation of the amended Plan of Arrangement.

 

 

 
 

(c)

If (i) SciVac does not offer to amend the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Arrangement within the Response Period or (ii) the Levon Board determines acting in good faith and in the proper discharge of its fiduciary duties (after consultation with its financial advisor and after receiving advice from its outside legal counsel) that the Acquisition Proposal would nonetheless remain a Superior Proposal with respect to SciVac’s proposal to amend the Agreement and Plan of Arrangement, and therefore rejects SciVac’s offer to amend the Plan of Arrangement and this Agreement, Levon shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2(d)(i) following the expiry of the Response Period and enter into the Proposed Agreement upon payment to SciVac of the amount payable pursuant to Section 9.3 .

 

 

 
 

(d)

Levon acknowledges and agrees that each successive modification of any Acquisition Proposal that results in any change to the amount or type of the consideration (or value of such consideration) to be received by the holders of the Levon Shares shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of the requirement of Section 7.3(a) to initiate an additional ten (10) Business Day Response Period.

 

 

 
 

(e)

Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Levon Board from responding through a directors’ circular or otherwise as required by applicable Laws to an Acquisition Proposal that it determines is not a Superior Proposal. SciVac and its advisors shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the content of any directors’ circular prior to its printing and Levon shall consider for inclusion all reasonable comments made by SciVac and its advisors.

 

 
72

 

7.4 Access to Information; Confidentiality

 

From the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement, subject to compliance with applicable Law and the terms of any existing Contracts, Levon shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors, employees, independent auditors, accounting advisors and agents to, afford to SciVac and to the officers, employees, agents and other Representatives of SciVac (upon reasonable advance notice and, at the option of Levon, with a Levon representative present), such reasonable access during regular business hours as SciVac may reasonably require at all reasonable times, without disruption to the conduct of Levon business, including for the purpose of facilitating integration business planning, to their officers, employees, agents, properties, books, records and Contracts of Levon and its subsidiaries, and shall furnish SciVac with all data and information (other than data and information relating to the Levon Mineral Properties except as may be required to confirm that the Spinco Assets and Spinco Liabilities have been duly transferred to Spinco prior to the Effective Time) as SciVac may reasonably request. SciVac and Levon acknowledge and agree that information furnished pursuant to this Section 7.4  shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement.

 

7.5 Insurance and Indemnification

 

 

(a)

Levon shall be entitled to purchase run off directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for a period of up to six years from the Effective Date with the prior written consent of SciVac, not to be unreasonably withheld. Levon shall ensure that the articles and/or by-laws of Levon and its subsidiaries (or their respective successors) shall contain the provisions with respect to indemnification set forth in Levon’s or the applicable subsidiary’s current articles and/or by-laws, which provisions shall not, except to the extent required by applicable Laws, be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Effective Date in any manner that would adversely affect any rights of indemnification of individuals who, immediately prior to the Effective Date, were directors or officers of Levon or any of its subsidiaries.

 

 

 
 

(b)

Levon agrees that it shall directly honour all rights to indemnification or exculpation now existing in favour of present and former officers and directors of Levon and its subsidiaries, to the extent that they are disclosed in Section 7.5 (b) of the Levon Disclosure Letter, and acknowledges that such rights, to the extent they are disclosed in Section 7.5 (b) of the Levon Disclosure Letter, shall survive the completion of the Plan of Arrangement and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of not less than six years from the Effective Date.

 

 

 
 

(c)

The provisions of this Section 7.5 are intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each insured or indemnified Person, his or her heirs and his or her legal representatives and, for such purpose. Furthermore, this Section 7.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement as a result of the occurrence of the Effective Date for a period of six years.
