  • 1.9 Convertible Securities. Each warrant to purchase one share of Company Common Stock granted by the Company (the “ Company Warrants ”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether exercisable or not exercisable at such time, shall be exchanged for and replaced with a warrant to purchase OV2 Post-Consolidation Shares (the “ Resulting Issuer Warrants ”), and OV2 shall assume each Company Warrant, in accordance with the terms of the Company Warrant, except that from and after the Effective Time, (i) each Resulting Issuer Warrant may be exercised for OV2 Post-Consolidation Shares (or cash, if so provided under the terms of such warrant), (ii) the number of OV2 Post-Consolidation Shares subject to such Resulting Issuer Warrant shall be equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (iii) the per share exercise price under each such Company Warrant shall

  • 4 -

be adjusted by dividing the per share exercise price under each such Company Warrant by the Exchange Ratio and rounding up to the nearest cent. Each of Company and OV2 shall adopt any and all resolutions and take any and all necessary steps to effectuate the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.9.

  • 1.10 US Legend. Each holder of Company Common Stock who is resident in the United States or otherwise a “U.S. Person”, as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, is in the United States, or consents to the Merger from within the United States, will, as a condition of receiving OV2 Post-Consolidation Shares, as applicable, upon completion of the Merger, be required to deliver a certificate in a form satisfactory to the Parties as to their status, together with any supporting information as reasonably requested by the Parties in order to confirm the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws for the issuance of such securities of the OV2 to such holder and any certificate representing such securities delivered to such holder shall bear a U.S. legend substantially in the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY (AND ANY SECURITIES DELIVERABLE ON EXERCISE HEREOF, IF APPLICABLE) HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY ACQUIRING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES AND ITS SUCCESSORS (THE “CORPORATION”) THAT THESE SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (C) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY (i) RULE 144 OR (ii) RULE 144A THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAWS, AND, IN THE CASE OF PARAGRAPH (C) OR (D), THE HOLDER HAS, PRIOR TO SUCH SALE, FURNISHED TO THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY). HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE SECURITIES MUST NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.

IF THE CORPORATION IS A “FOREIGN ISSUER” AS DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AT THE TIME THESE SECURITIES ARE ISSUED, AND THESE SECURITIES ARE BEING SOLD IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, A NEW CERTIFICATE BEARING NO LEGEND, DELIVERY OF WHICH WILL CONSTITUTE “GOOD DELIVERY,” MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION’S REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE SECURITIES UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND A DULY EXECUTED DECLARATION, IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION’S REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT AND

  • 5 -

THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, TOGETHER WITH SUCH DOCUMENTATION AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY THE CORPORATION AND ITS REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT.”

  • 1.11 Rights of Former Company Shareholders. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed as to holders of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, and no transfer of Company Common Stock by any such holder shall thereafter be made or recognized. If, after the Effective Time, Company Certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock are presented to the Surviving Corporation for transfer, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article 1. Each Company Certificate theretofore representing shares of Company Common Stock (other than shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.7(b)) shall from and after the Effective Time represent for all purposes only the right to receive the consideration provided in Section 1.7 in exchange therefor, subject, however, to the Surviving Corporation’s obligation to pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time which have been declared or made by the Company in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time. To the extent permitted by Law, former shareholders of record of the Company shall be entitled to vote after the Effective Time at any meeting of OV2 shareholders the number of whole OV2 Post-Consolidation Shares into which their respective shares of Company Common Stock are converted.

  • 1.12 U.S. Tax Consequences. The Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The Parties hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Each of the Parties shall, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, report the Merger as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. Each of the Parties hereto shall act in a manner consistent with, and file all Tax Returns and financial statements consistently with, the intended tax treatment as set out in this Section 1.12, and shall not take any position on any Tax Return or otherwise take any Tax reporting position inconsistent with such treatment, unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code that such treatment is not correct under applicable Tax Law.

  • 1.13 Escrow. The Parties acknowledge that the TSX-V will require some or all of the Merger Consideration to be held in escrow pursuant to the requirements of the TSX-V or applicable Laws, or may be subject to the TSX-V seed share resale restrictions, and released, over time, as determined by the TSX-V. The Parties agree that the terms of the escrow will be negotiated by counsel for the Company, counsel for OV2, and the TSX-V, and the Parties agree to comply with such requirements through OV2 legending the OV2 Common Shares as necessary.

  • 1.14 Share Exchange with Canadian Resident Shareholders. Concurrently with the consummation of the Merger and upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Canadian Resident Shareholder who has entered into an Exchange Agreement shall be transferred by such Canadian Resident Shareholder to OV2 in exchange for OV2 Post-Consolidated Shares based upon the Exchange Ratio.

  • 1.15 Canadian Tax Election. OV2 will jointly elect with each Canadian Resident Shareholder who requests that OV2 do so, in the form and within the time limits prescribed for such purposes, that the Canadian Resident Shareholder will be deemed pursuant to section 85 of the ITA to have

  • 6 -

disposed of his, her or its shares of the Company at an elected amount to be determined by the Canadian Resident Shareholder. OV2 shall not be responsible for the proper completion of any section 85 election form nor, except for the obligation to sign and return duly completed election forms which are received within ninety (90) days after the Effective Time, for any taxes, interest or penalties resulting from the failure of a Canadian Resident Shareholder to complete or file such election forms properly in the form and manner and within the time prescribed by the Tax Act (or any applicable provincial legislation). In its sole discretion, OV2 may choose to sign and return an election form received by it more than ninety (90) days following the Effective Time, but will have no obligation to do so.

  • 1.16 Structure. The Parties intend and agree that the transactions set forth in this Article 1 will be completed as specified, and in the order specified, and that no single transaction set forth in this Article 1 will be completed without the intent of the Parties to complete the other transactions set forth in this Article 1.

  • 1.17 Post-Closing Capitalization. Immediately following completion of the Merger, the capitalization of OV2 shall be as indicated in Exhibit C attached hereto; provided that, such capitalization may be adjusted in the event that, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, OV2 or the Company issues any additional securities after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Merger.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Corporation. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot and need not be conducted by inspectors unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of all classes of stock entitled to vote thereon present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall so determine. At all meetings of stockholders for the election of directors a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect. With respect to other matters, unless otherwise provided by law or by the articles of incorporation or these by-laws, the affirmative vote of the

holders of a majority of the shares of all classes of stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders, provided that (except as otherwise required by law or by the articles of incorporation) the Board of Directors may require a larger vote upon any such matter. Where a separate vote by class is required, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of each class present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class, except as otherwise provided by law or by the articles of incorporation or these by-laws.

Section 1.8. Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of Record. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty days prior to any other action. If no record date is fixed: (1) the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held; (2) the record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board is necessary, shall be the day on which the first written consent is expressed; and (3) the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

Section 1.9. List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.

Section 1.10. Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. Any action required by law to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number

of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.

ARTICLE II Board of Directors

Section 2.1. Powers; Number; Qualifications. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise provided by law or in the articles of incorporation. The Board shall consist of one or more members, the number thereof to be determined from time to time by the Board. Directors need not be stockholders.

Section 2.2. Election; Term of Office; Resignation; Removal; Vacancies. Each director shall hold office until the annual meeting of stockholders next succeeding his or her election and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal. Any director may resign at any time upon written notice to the Board of Directors or to the President or the Secretary of the Corporation. Such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, and unless otherwise specified therein no acceptance of such resignation shall be necessary to make it effective. Any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors; except that, if the articles of incorporation provides for cumulative voting and less than the entire Board is to be removed, no director may be removed without cause if the votes cast against his or her removal would be sufficient to elect him or her if then cumulatively voted at an election of the entire Board, or, if there be classes of directors, at an election of the class of directors of which he or she is a part. Whenever the holders of any class or series of stock are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the articles of incorporation, the provisions of the preceding sentence shall apply, in respect to the removal without cause of a director or directors so elected, to the vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of that class or series and not to the vote of the outstanding shares as a whole. Unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or these by-laws, vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors elected by all of the stockholders having the right to vote as a single class or from any other cause may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director. Whenever the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the articles of incorporation, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series may be filled by a majority of the directors elected by such class or classes or series thereof then in office, or by the sole remaining director so elected.

Section 2.5. Participation in Meetings by Conference Telephone Permitted.

Section 2.6. Quorum; Vote Required for Action. At all meetings of the Board of Directors one-third of the entire Board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The vote of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board unless the articles of incorporation or these by-laws shall require a vote of a greater number. In case at any meeting of the Board a quorum shall not be present, the members of the Board present may adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum shall attend.

Section 2.7. Organization.

In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the meeting in place of any such absent or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have power or authority in reference to amending the articles of incorporation, adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the Corporation's property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation of dissolution, removing or indemnifying directors or amending these by-laws; and, unless the resolution expressly so provides, no such committee shall have the power or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock.

Section 3.2. Committee Rules. Unless the Board of Directors otherwise provides, each committee designated by the Board may adopt, amend and repeal rules for the conduct of its business. In the absence of a provision by the Board or a provision in the rules of such committee to the contrary, a majority of the entire authorized number of members of such committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, the vote of a majority of the members present at a meeting at the time of such vote if a quorum is then present shall be the act of such committee, and in other respects each committee shall conduct its business in the same manner as the Board conducts its business pursuant to Article II of these by-laws.

Whenever notice is required to be given by law or under any provision of the articles of incorporation or these by-laws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.
