HAW CAPITAL 2 CORP.
MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR
FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL AND SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON NOVEMBER 25, 2025

GENERAL INFORMATION RESPECTING THE MEETING

The information contained in this management information circular (the "Circular") is given as at October 22, 2025, unless otherwise noted.

No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representation in connection with the other matters described herein other than those contained in this Circular and, if given or made, any such representation should be considered not to have been authorized by the Company.

This Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by or on behalf of the management of HAW Capital 2 Corp. ("HAW2" or the "Company") for use at the annual general and special meeting of the holders (the "Shareholders") of the common shares (the "Common Shares") in the capital of the Company to be held at the registered office of the Company located at 4500, 855 - 2nd Street S.W. Calgary, Alberta, T2P 4K7 Canada, on November 25, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. (Calgary time), and any adjournment or adjournments thereof (the "Meeting") for the purposes set forth in the notice of meeting of Shareholders (the "Notice of Meeting") accompanying this Circular.

This Circular does not constitute the solicitation of an offer to purchase any securities or the solicitation of a proxy by any person in any jurisdiction in which such solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such solicitation is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such solicitation.

Information contained in this Circular should not be construed as legal, tax or financial advice and Shareholders are urged to consult their own professional advisers in connection therewith.

The Company will not be using the notice-and-access mechanism under National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer ("NI 54-101") for distribution of the Notice of Meeting, the Circular and accompany meeting materials to the Shareholders.

Time, Date and Location of Meeting

The Meeting will be held on November 25, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. (Calgary time) at the Company's registered office located at 4500, 855 - 2nd Street S.W. Calgary, Alberta, T2P 4K7, Canada.

Currency

In this Circular, unless otherwise specified herein, all references to dollar amounts are to Canadian dollars.

Record Date

The board of directors of the Company (the "Board") has fixed October 21, 2025, as the record date (the "Record Date") for determination of persons entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Only Shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date who either attend the Meeting in person or complete, sign and deliver a form of proxy in the manner and subject to the provisions described herein will be entitled to vote or to have their common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") voted at the Meeting.


2

Appointment of Proxyholders

The purpose of a proxy is to designate persons who will vote the proxy on behalf of a Shareholder of the Company in accordance with the instructions given by the Shareholder in the proxy. The persons whose names are printed in the enclosed form of proxy are officers or directors of the Company.

The individual(s) named in the accompanying form of proxy are management's representatives. If you are a Shareholder entitled to vote at the Meeting, you have the right to appoint a person or company other than the person(s) designated in the proxy, who need not be a Shareholder of the Company, to attend and act for you and on your behalf at the Meeting. You may do so either by inserting the name of that other person or company in the blank space provided in the proxy, and, if desired, an alternate to such person, or by completing and delivering another proper proxy and, in either case, delivering the completed proxy to the office of Odyssey Trust Company, at Trader's Bank Building, 1100 67 Younge Street, ON M5E 1J8 no later than 10:00 a.m. (Calgary time) on November 21, 2025 unless the chairman elects to exercise his discretion to accept proxies received subsequently. Such Shareholder should notify the nominee of the appointment, obtain the nominee's consent to act as proxy and should provide instruction to the nominee how the Shareholder's Common Shares should be voted. The nominee should bring personal identification to the Meeting.

A proxy may not be valid unless it is dated and signed by the Shareholder who is giving it or by that Shareholder's attorney-in-fact duly authorized by that Shareholder in writing or, in the case of a corporation, dated and executed by a duly authorized officer or attorney-in-fact for the corporation. If a form of proxy is executed by an attorney-in-fact for an individual Shareholder or joint Shareholders, or by an officer or attorney-in-fact for a corporate Shareholder, the instrument so empowering the officer or attorney-in-fact, as the case may be, or a notarially certified copy thereof, must accompany the form of proxy.

Voting by Proxyholder

The person(s) named in the proxy will vote or withhold from voting the Common Shares represented thereby in accordance with your instructions on any ballot that may be called for. If you specify a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, your Common Shares will be voted accordingly. The proxy confers discretionary authority on the person(s) named therein with respect to:

(a) each matter or group of matters identified therein for which a choice is not specified, other than the appointment of an auditor and the election of directors;
(b) any amendment to or variation of any matter identified therein; and
(c) any other matter that properly comes before the Meeting.

As at the date hereof, the Board knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting, other than the matters referred to in the Notice of Meeting. However, if other matters should properly come before the Meeting, the proxy will be voted on such matters in accordance with the best judgment of the person(s) voting the proxy.

Only registered Shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting.

If a Shareholder does not specify a choice and the Shareholder has appointed one of the management proxyholders as proxyholder, the management proxyholder will vote in favour of the matters specified in the Notice of Meeting and in favour of all other matters proposed by management at the Meeting.

In respect of a matter for which a choice is not specified in the proxy, the person(s) named in the proxy will vote the Common Shares represented by the proxy for the approval of such matter.


Although it is expected that the solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone, facsimile or other means of communication by the directors, officers and employees of the Company, none of whom will be specifically remunerated therefor. The cost of any such solicitation will be borne by the Company.

Registered Shareholders

Registered Shareholders may wish to vote by proxy whether or not they are able to attend the Meeting in person. Registered Shareholders electing to submit a proxy may do so by completing, dating and signing the enclosed form and returning it to the Company's transfer agent, Odyssey Trust Company, either: (a) by mail or hand delivery to Odyssey Trust Company at Trader's Bank Building, 1100, 67 Younge Street, Toronto, ON M5E 1J8; (b) by fax within North America at 1-800-517-4553; (c) via email to [email protected]; or (d) by internet http://login.odysseytrust.com/pxlogin. Registered Shareholders must follow the instructions that appear on the screen and refer to the proxy form for the holder's Control Number. In order to be valid and acted upon at the Meeting, proxies and votes must be received at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the Province of Alberta) before the Meeting or the adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used. Proxies received after that time may not be accepted by the Chairman of the Meeting in the Chairman's discretion, and the Chairman is under no obligation to accept late proxies.

Beneficial Shareholders

The following information is important to shareholders who do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Beneficial Shareholders should note that the only proxies that can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting are those deposited by registered Shareholders (those whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares). Most shareholders are "non-registered" shareholders because the shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the shares. Common Shares beneficially owned by a non-registered Shareholder are registered either:

(a) in the name of an intermediary (an "Intermediary") that the non-registered shareholder deals with in respect of their shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers, or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSP, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or
(b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as the Canadian Depositary for Securities Limited or the Depositary Trust & Clearing Corporation) of which the Intermediary is a participant.

If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Shareholder by a broker, then in almost all such cases those Common Shares will not be registered in the Shareholder's name on the records of the Company. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the names of the Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In the United States, the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name of Cede & Co. as nominee for The Depository Trust Company (which acts as depositary for many U.S. brokerage firms and custodian banks), and in Canada under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms).

Intermediaries are required to seek voting instructions from beneficial Shareholders in advance of Shareholders' meetings. Every Intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients.

3


There are two kinds of beneficial Shareholders, those who object to their name being made known to the issuers of securities which they own (called “OBOs” for objecting beneficial owners) and those who do not object to the issuers of the securities they own knowing who they are (called “NOBOs” for non-objecting beneficial owners).

The Company is not taking advantage of the provisions of NI 54-101, which permits it to deliver proxy-related materials directly to NOBOs.

This Circular, with related material, is being sent to both registered and beneficial Shareholders. If you are a beneficial Shareholder and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your Common Shares have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary who holds your Common Shares on your behalf. Please return your voting information form (a "VIF") as specified in your request for voting instructions that you receive.

Beneficial Shareholders who are OBOs should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting.

The VIF that will be supplied to beneficial Shareholders by the Intermediaries will be similar to the form of proxy provided to registered Shareholders by the Company. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the Intermediary on how to vote on behalf of the beneficial Shareholder. Most Intermediaries now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. in the United States and Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. Canada, in Canada (collectively, "Broadridge"). Broadridge mails a VIF in lieu of a proxy provided by the Company. The VIF will name the same person(s) as the proxy to represent beneficial Shareholders at the Meeting. Beneficial Shareholders have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a beneficial Shareholder of the Company), other than the person(s) designated in the VIF, to represent them at the Meeting. To exercise this right, beneficial Shareholders should insert the name of the desired representative in the blank space provided in the VIF and, if desired, an alternate to such person. The completed VIF must then be returned to Broadridge in the manner specified and in accordance with Broadridge's instructions. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares to be represented at the Meeting. If you receive a VIF from Broadridge, you cannot use it to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting. The VIF must be completed and returned to Broadridge in accordance with its instructions, well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted.

Although as a beneficial Shareholder you may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of your Intermediary, you, or a person designated by you, may attend the Meeting as proxyholder for your Intermediary and vote your Common Shares in that capacity. If you wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote your Common Shares as proxyholder for your Intermediary, or have a person designated by you to do so, you should enter your own name, or the name of the person you wish to designate, in the blank space on the VIF provided to you and return the same to your Intermediary in accordance with the instructions provided by such Intermediary, well in advance of the Meeting.

Alternatively, you can request in writing that your broker send you a legal proxy which would enable you, or a person designated by you, to attend the Meeting and vote your Common Shares.

In accordance with NI 54-101, arrangements have been made with Intermediaries or their nominees to distribute copies of the Notice of Meeting, this Circular, the form of proxy and the supplemental mailing list (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") to OBOs whose Common Shares are held by or in custody of such Intermediaries. Such Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Materials to OBOs unless an OBO

4


has waived the right to receive them. The Company has elected not to pay for the delivery of the Meeting Materials to OBOs by the Intermediaries.

Beneficial Shareholders should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary, including those regarding when and where the proxy or VIF is to be delivered.

Revocation of Proxies

In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a registered Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by:

(a) executing a proxy bearing a later date or by executing a valid notice of revocation, either of the foregoing to be executed by the registered Shareholder or the registered Shareholder's authorized attorney in writing, or if the registered Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal by an officer or attorney duly authorized, and by delivering the proxy bearing a later date to Odyssey Trust Company at Trader's Bank Building 1100, 67 Younge Street, Toronto, ON M5E 1J8 at any time up to and including the last business day that precedes the date of the Meeting or, if the Meeting is adjourned or postponed, the last business day (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the Province of Alberta) that precedes any reconvening thereof, or to the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any reconvening thereof, or in any other manner provided by law; or

(b) personally attending the Meeting and voting the registered Shareholder's Common Shares. A revocation of a proxy will not affect a matter on which a vote is taken before the revocation.

PROPOSED QUALIFYING TRANSACTION

Qualifying Transaction

On May 7, 2025, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent, as amended on August 7, 2025, with NAKED Revival Inc. ("NAKED"), a corporation existing under the laws of the State of Nevada pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of NAKED (each, a "NAKED Security") in exchange for the issuance of securities of the Company (the "Qualifying Transaction"). On or about October 31, 2025, it is expected that the Company, Haw 2 US Inc. ("Subco"), its wholly owned subsidiary incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, and NAKED will enter into a Merger Agreement (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which Subco and NAKED will merge in accordance with the provisions of the Nevada Business Corporations Act and a US Merger Agreement.

The Qualifying Transaction will result in a reverse takeover of the Company by NAKED and will constitute the Company's "Qualifying Transaction" as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). The Company and NAKED are at arm's length and the Qualifying Transaction is not a non-arm's length transaction under the policies of the Exchange. Accordingly, the Qualifying Transaction does not require Shareholder approval under the rules of the Exchange as it is not a non-arm's length transaction.

On closing of the Qualifying Transaction (the "Closing"), it is expected that the Company (being, following the Closing, the "Resulting Issuer") will be listed as a Tier 2 Industrial Issuer on the Exchange, and its business will be that of NAKED.

As contemplated in the Merger Agreement, at Closing, the Company is anticipated to issue such number of Common Shares (or other applicable securities of the Company) to the holders of the NAKED Securities as have an aggregate value of approximately $5,000,000 (pre-money, before giving effect to the Concurrent Financing (as defined below)), based on a deemed price of approximately $0.11 per Common Share, or such other deemed price per share as may be determined by the parties. Additionally, NAKED is anticipated to

5


convert $119,556.45 of its outstanding debt into common stock of NAKED (each, a “NAKED Share”), which is anticipated to result in the issuance of a further 664,200 Common Shares at the Closing.

Completion of the Qualifying Transaction is anticipated to be subject to various conditions, including: the parties obtaining all required directors', shareholders', regulatory and third-party consents for the Qualifying Transaction, including the conditional approval of the Exchange; completion of the Concurrent Financing; and compliance with applicable listing requirements of the Exchange.

Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, NAKED is anticipated to become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Resulting Issuer and the Resulting Issuer is anticipated to continue with the business of NAKED and, subject to Shareholder approval at the Meeting and effective upon the Closing, (a) the Incumbent Slate (as defined below) will be replaced with the Alternate Slate (as defined below); (b) the Incumbent Auditors (as defined below) will be replaced with the Alternate Auditor (as defined below); (c) the Existing Plan (as defined below) will be replaced with the Omnibus Plan (as defined below); and (d) the Company will continue from the Province of Alberta to the Province of British Columbia (the “Continuance”) whereafter the Company will be subject to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCBCA”) and will upon the Continuance adopt a new notice of articles and articles, the proposed form of such notice of articles and articles are attached as Appendix "B" to the Circular (the “Proposed Articles”), all as more particularly described in the Circular. Further, subject to Shareholder approval at the Meeting and effective immediately prior to the Continuance, conditional and effective upon the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Company's articles will be amended to change its name (the “Name Change”) from “HAW Capital 2 Corp.” to “NAKED Revival Inc.” or such other similar name as may be determined by the Board, as directed by NAKED, subject to regulatory approval, all as more particularly described in the Circular.

The final structure of the Qualifying Transaction will be determined after the parties have considered applicable tax, securities and accounting matters. Closing is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to, Exchange acceptance, Shareholder election of the Alternate Slate and Shareholder approval of the Continuance and the Name Change and other customary conditions. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.

On October 15, 2025, the Company received written consent of the Shareholders holding more than 50% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, excluding the votes attached to the Common Shares held by the recipient of the finder's fee, to the payment of a finder's fee to Scott McGregor, a Non-Arm's Length Party (as defined in the policies of the TSXV) of the Company, comprised of 1,000,000 Common Shares to be paid upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction in accordance with the Exchange's Policy 2.4 – Capital Pool Companies.

SAFE

On July 28, 2025 and July 29, 2025, in connection with the Qualifying Transaction, certain persons invested $607,500, of which, an aggregate of $255,000 was invested by certain members of the Board, in simple agreements for equity (each, a “SAFE”), issued by NAKED. Each SAFE provides, among other things, that (i) in the event of an equity financing of NAKED (a “NAKED Financing”) such SAFE will automatically convert into the number of NAKED Shares equal to the payment amount in respect of such SAFE divided by the lowest price per NAKED Share sold in the NAKED Financing, multiplied by 80%; and (ii) in the event of, among other liquidation events, a change of control of NAKED, such SAFE will entitle its respective SAFE holder to receive a portion of the proceeds from such liquidation event equal to the payment amount in respect of such SAFE. The SAFEs will convert into NAKED Shares in connection with the Qualifying Transaction and the NAKED Shares issued upon such conversion will subsequently be exchanged for securities of the Resulting Issuer.

6


7

Concurrent Financing

Prior to the Closing, NAKED is expected to undertake a concurrent financing (the “Concurrent Financing”) of special warrants, subscription receipts or similar securities of NAKED to arm’s length subscribers of up to $3,000,000 in gross proceeds (with a minimum of either the lower of $2,000,000 or the minimum amount allowed under the policies of the Exchange) to NAKED at a price of $0.11 per security, or such other price agreed to by the Company. The Concurrent Financing is anticipated to be on terms to be determined in the context of the market and may be completed on a brokered or non-brokered basis or a combination thereof.

For additional details on the terms of the proposed Qualifying Transaction, please refer to the news releases of the Company dated May 8, 2025 and August 8, 2025, which are available on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) under the Company’s issuer profile.

BUSINESS OF MEETING

To the knowledge of the Board and management of the Company, the only matters to be brought before the Meeting are those set out in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and more particularly detailed below. However, if other matters should properly come before the Meeting, the proxy will be voted on such matters in accordance with the best judgment of the person(s) voting the proxy.

1. PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The annual audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (“Fiscal 2024”), together with the report of the auditors thereon (the “Fiscal 2024 Financial Statements”), will be placed before the Meeting. The Fiscal 2024 Financial Statements and the related management’s discussion and analysis were mailed to the Shareholders who requested it and are additionally available by contacting the Company’s registered office at 4500, 855 - 2nd Street S.W. Calgary, Alberta T2P 4K7, Canada or under the Company’s profile on SEDAR + at www.sedarplus.ca.

No vote is required nor will be taken on the Fiscal 2024 Financial Statements and receipt of thereof will not constitute approval or disapproval of any matters referred to therein.

2. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s articles provide that the Board consist of a minimum of three and a maximum of 15 directors. The Board currently consists of four members. The Board has proposed that the Incumbent Slate be nominated for re-election at the Meeting and has proposed that an alternate slate of four directors (the “Alternate Slate” and, collectively, with the Incumbent Slate, the “Nominees”), be elected at the Meeting to replace the Incumbent Slate, conditional and effective upon the completion of the Qualifying Transaction. In the event that the Qualifying Transaction is not completed, each member of the Incumbent Slate will continue to hold office until the next annual general meeting of Shareholders or until their successor is duly elected or appointed, unless such office is earlier vacated in accordance with the Company’s articles or such director becomes disqualified to act as a director pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the “ABCA”).

Scott McGregor forms part of the Incumbent Slate and Alternate Slate. If both the Incumbent Slate and the Alternate Slate, conditional and effective upon the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, are elected, upon closing of the Qualifying Transaction: (a) Scott McGregor will remain on the Board; (b) Marshall Mewha, Robert McCue and John Campbell will step down as directors of the Resulting Issuer; and (c) Joel Primus, Andrew Kaplan and Michael Gheyle will be appointed as new directors of the Resulting Issuer.

In the absence of instructions to the contrary, proxies given pursuant to the solicitation by management will be voted FOR the Incumbent Slate and the Alternate Slate, conditional and effective


upon the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, Nominees listed in this Circular. Management does not contemplate that any of the Nominees of either the Incumbent Slate or the Alternate Slate will be unable to serve as a director. The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the election of the persons named below and nominated for election as part of both the Incumbent Slate and the Alternate Slate.

Subject to the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, it is proposed to keep the number of directors at four immediately following the Meeting. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the enclosed form of proxy will be voted FOR the number of directors of the Company to be set at four.

Incumbent Slate

The following table sets out the names of the incumbent slate Nominees for election as directors (the "Incumbent Slate"), the offices they hold within the Company, their occupations, the length of time they have served as directors of the Company, and the number of Common Shares of the Company and options of the Company which each beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or over which control or direction is exercised, as of the date of this Circular.

  1. CORPORATE CEASE TRADE ORDERS OR BANKRUPTCIES

Cease Trade Orders

To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Nominees are, or within 10 years prior to the date of this Circular have been, a director or executive officer of any company that, while such person was acting in that capacity, was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied the relevant issuer access to any exemption under securities legislation that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days (an "Order").

To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Nominees was the subject of an Order that was issued after the Nominee ceased to be a director or executive officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer.

13

Corporate Bankruptcies

To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Nominees are, or within 10 years prior to the date of this Circular have been, a director or executive officer of any company (including the Company) that, while acting in that capacity, or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets.

Personal Bankruptcies

To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Nominees have, within 10 years prior to the date of this Circular, become bankrupt, made a proposal under any bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, been subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold their assets.

Penalties or Sanctions

To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Nominees have been subject to any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities regulatory authority, or have entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority, or any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered important to a reasonable securityholder in deciding whether to vote for a proposed director or making an investment decision.

5. APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS

The Shareholders will be asked to appoint the auditor of the Company. Ordinarily, that would involve re-appointing KPMG LLP ("KPMG"), the Company's current auditors (the "Incumbent Auditor"), who have been auditors of the Company since August 1, 2019, to hold office until the next annual meeting of Shareholders. However, if the Qualifying Transaction is completed, it will be desirable to change the auditor of the Resulting Issuer. In such circumstance, the Shareholders will be asked to consider appointing DMCL Chartered Professional Accountants ("DMCL") as auditor of the Resulting Issuer (the "Alternate Auditor").

In order to avoid changing the auditor of the Company should it prove unnecessary to do so, and in order to dispense with the need to call an additional meeting of Resulting Issuer Shareholders to approve a change of auditor if the Qualifying Transaction is completed, Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to consider, and if deemed appropriate, to pass, with or without variation, an ordinary resolution appointing KPMG as auditor of the Company effective from the date of the Meeting, provided that if the Qualifying Transaction is completed, DMCL will be appointed as auditor of the Resulting Issuer effective 12:01 a.m. (Vancouver time) upon the effective day of the Qualifying Transaction (the "Auditor Change Time"), the full text of which is included in Appendix "A" – Auditor Resolution (the "Auditor Resolution").

KPMG has agreed to resign as the auditor of the Company at the Auditor Change Time. The determination not to re-appoint KPMG as auditor of the Resulting Issuer upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction has been made in the context of the Qualifying Transaction and not because of any "reportable event" (as that term is defined in National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations).

If the Auditor Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Qualifying Transaction is completed, DMCL will be appointed as the auditor of the Resulting Issuer effective at the Auditor Change Time. At the time of the Meeting, the Qualifying Transaction will not yet have been completed and there can be no assurance at that time that the Qualifying Transaction will be completed.


In absence of instructions to the contrary, proxies given pursuant to the solicitation by management will be voted FOR the Auditor Resolution. The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the Auditor Resolution.

The full text of the Auditor Resolution is set forth in Appendix "A" – Auditor Resolution.

6. APPROVAL OF CONTINUANCE

The Company presently exists under the ABCA. In connection with the Qualifying Transaction, the Board believes it to be in best interest of the Company to continue the Company out of the Province of Alberta into the Province of British Columbia whereafter the Company will be subject to the BCBCA and to adopt new notice of articles and articles in accordance with the BCBCA.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta and is subject to the provisions of the ABCA. At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed appropriate, to pass, with or without variation, a special resolution, the full text of which is included in Appendix "A" – Continuance Resolution (the "Continuance Resolution") approving and authorizing the Board, in its sole discretion, to apply for the discontinuance of the Company from the jurisdiction of the Province of Alberta under the ABCA (on the ABCA Registrar (as defined below) being satisfied that the Continuance (as defined below) will not adversely affect creditors or Shareholders) and to continue the Company into the Province of British Columbia whereafter the Company will be subject to the BCBCA (the "Continuance"). In addition to Shareholder approval, the Continuance is subject to the approval of the Exchange.

If the Continuance is approved by Shareholders, the Company intends to file with the British Columbia Registrar of Companies (the "BC Registrar"), under the BCBCA, a continuation application. The continuation application will include the Company's Proposed Articles. As part of the Continuance Resolution, Shareholders will also be asked to approve the adoption by the Company of the new notice of articles and articles, which comply with the requirements of the BCBCA, in substitution for the existing articles and by-laws of the Company and any amendments thereto to date. Upon the effectiveness of the Continuance, the existing articles and by-laws of the Company will cease to apply to the Company and the corporate affairs of the company will thereafter be governed by the BCBCA and the Proposed Articles, as if it had been originally incorporated as a British Columbia company. The Proposed Articles are attached as Appendix "B" to this Circular.

The Continuance may affect certain rights of Shareholders as they currently exist under the ABCA and the provisions of its constating documents. Shareholders should consult their legal advisors regarding implications of the Continuance, which may be of particular importance to them.

Section 305 of the BCBCA provides that when a corporation incorporated outside of the BCBCA continues under the BCBCA:

(a) the BCBCA applies to the continued company to the same extent as if the company had been incorporated under this Act,

(a.1) the continued company has, as its notice of articles, the notice of articles contained in the continuation application,

(b) the property, rights and interests of the foreign corporation continue to be the property, rights and interests of the company,

(c) the company continues to be liable for the obligations of the foreign corporation,

(d) an existing cause of action, claim or liability to prosecution is unaffected,

14


(e) a legal proceeding being prosecuted or pending by or against the foreign corporation may be prosecuted or its prosecution may be continued, as the case may be, by or against the company, and
(f) a conviction against, or a ruling, order or judgment in favour of or against, the foreign corporation may be enforced by or against the company.

Reason for Continuance

The Board has determined that the Continuance is in the best interest of the Company because, following the closing of the Proposed Transaction, the mind and management of the Company will be located in the Province of British Columbia. The Board believes that Shareholders will have substantially the same rights under the BCBCA as those that were available to them under the ABCA.

Continuance Process

In order to effect the Continuance, the following steps must be taken:

  1. the Company must obtain the approval of its Shareholders to the Continuance by way of the Continuance Resolution, being a special resolution to be passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy;
  2. the Company must make a written application to the ABCA Registrar under the ABCA for consent to continue under the BCBCA, such written application to establish to the satisfaction of the ABCA Registrar that the proposed Continuance will not adversely affect the Company's creditors or Shareholders;
  3. once the Continuance Resolution is passed and the Company has obtained the consent of the ABCA Registrar under the ABCA, to obtain a certificate of continuation (the "Certificate of Continuance") under the BCBCA, the Company must file with the BC Registrar a continuation application along with the consent of the ABCA Registrar under the ABCA, and certain prescribed documents under the BCBCA, including the proposed articles that the Company will have once it is continued into British Columbia;
  4. on the date shown on the Certificate of Continuance, the Company will become a company registered under the BCBCA as if it had been incorporated under the BCBCA; and
  5. the Company must then file a copy of the Certificate of Continuation with the ABCA Registrar and receive a certificate of discontinuance under the ABCA (the "Certificate of Discontinuance").

Effect of the Continuance

Upon receipt of the Certificate of Continuance, the Company will become subject to the BCBCA as if it had been incorporated under the BCBCA, and upon receipt of the Certificate of Discontinuance, the ABCA will cease to apply to the Company, thereby completing the Continuance. The Continuance will not create a new legal entity, affect the continuity of the Company or result in a change in its business. However, the Continuance will affect certain rights of Shareholders as they currently exist under the ABCA and the Company's existing articles and by-laws. Set out below under "Comparison of the ABCA and the BCBCA" is a summary of some of the key differences in corporate law between the ABCA and the BCBCA.

Comparison of the ABCA and the BCBCA

Charter Documents

Under the BCBCA, the charter documents consist of: (i) the notice of articles, which sets forth, among other things, the name of the company, and the amount and type of authorized capital, and indicates if there are any

15


rights and restrictions attached to the shares; and (ii) the articles, which govern the management of the company. The notice of articles is filed with the BC Registrar, and the articles are filed only with the company's registered and records office.

Similarly, under the ABCA, the charter documents consist of: (i) the articles, which set forth, among other things, the name of the company, the amount and type of authorized capital, whether there are any restrictions on the transfer of shares of the company, the number of directors (or the minimum and maximum number of directors), any restrictions on the business that the company may carry on and other provisions such as the ability of the directors to appoint additional directors between annual meetings; and (ii) the by-laws, which govern the management of the company. The articles are filed with the ABCA Registrar, and the by-laws are filed only with the company's registered and records office.

Except as otherwise described below and herein, the Continuance and the adoption of notice of articles and the Proposed Articles will not result in any substantive changes to the constitution, powers or management of the Company, except as otherwise described herein.

Amendments to Charter Documents

Any substantive change to the corporate charter of a company under the BCBCA, such as an alteration of the restrictions, if any, on the business carried on by a company, or an alteration of the special rights and restrictions attached to issued shares requires a resolution passed by the majority of votes specified by the articles of the company or, if the articles do not contain such a provision, a special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution.

Under the ABCA, such changes require a special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the shareholders voting on the resolution authorizing the alteration and, where certain specified rights of the holders of a class or series of shares are affected differently by the alteration than the rights of the holders of other classes of shares, or in the case of holders of a series of shares, in a manner different from other shares of the same class, a special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the holders of shares of each class, or series, as the case may be, whether or not they are otherwise entitled to vote.

In addition, other fundamental changes such as a proposed amalgamation or continuation of a company out of the jurisdiction require a special resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution by holders of shares of each class entitled to vote at a general meeting of the company.

Alterations of Share Structure and Change of Name

Under the BCBCA, if specified in the articles, the board of directors is provided with the flexibility to approve the alteration of the share structure of the company to effect, among other things, the creation of classes of shares, a consolidation of its issued shares or an increase or decrease in the authorized share capital of the company (collectively "Share Structure Alterations"). Under the ABCA, in order to effect Share Structure Alterations, a special resolution of the shareholders of the company is required.

Similarly, under the BCBCA, the board of directors may resolve to change the name of the company. Under the ABCA, in order to effect a change of name of the company, a special resolution of the shareholders is required.

Requisite Shareholder Approval Thresholds

Under the BCBCA, the shareholder approval thresholds for certain fundamental matters (being an arrangement, conversion, amalgamation, a sale, lease or a disposition of all or substantially all of a company's

16


undertaking, continuation or liquidation) are specified. However, in all other matters, a company under the BCBCA can use its articles to establish the required shareholder approval thresholds. In addition, where the BCBCA specifies that a special resolution is required to pass certain matters, the company can use its articles to specify the percentage of votes required to pass a special resolution provided the specified percentage is not less than two-thirds and not more than three-quarters of the votes cast.

The ABCA does not provide flexibility with respect to the level of shareholder approval required for ordinary resolutions and special resolutions. Under the ABCA, an ordinary resolution must be passed by a majority of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the resolution and a special resolution must be passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the resolution.

Sale of Undertaking

Under the BCBCA, a company may sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all, or substantially all, of the undertaking of the company if it does so in the ordinary course of its business or if it has been authorized to do so by a special resolution passed by the majority of votes that the articles of the company specify is required (being not less than two-thirds and not more than three-quarters of the votes cast on the resolution).

The ABCA requires approval of the holders of the shares of a corporation represented at a duly called meeting by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast upon a special resolution for a sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the "property" (as opposed to the "undertaking") of the corporation, other than in the ordinary course of business of the corporation. Each share of a corporation carries the right to vote in respect of a sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property of the corporation whether or not it otherwise carries the right to vote. Holders of shares of a class or series can vote only if that class or series is affected by the sale, lease or exchange in a manner different from the shares of another class or series.

While the shareholder approval thresholds will be the same under the BCBCA and the ABCA, there are differences in the nature of the sale which requires such approval, i.e., a sale of all or substantially all of the "undertaking" under the BCBCA and of all or substantially all of the "property" under the ABCA. The BCBCA also exempts certain dispositions by way of security interest, certain limited leases and certain transactions involving affiliates.

Both statutes offer dissent rights in the case of such a transaction.

Right of Dissent and Appraisal

The BCBCA provides that shareholders who dissent to certain actions being taken by a company may exercise a right of dissent and require the company to purchase the shares held by such shareholder at the fair value of such shares. The dissent right is applicable in respect of:

(a) a resolution to alter the articles to alter restrictions on the powers of the company or on the business it is permitted to carry on;

(b) a resolution to adopt an amalgamation agreement;

(c) a resolution to approve an amalgamation into a foreign jurisdiction;

(d) a resolution to approve an arrangement, the terms of which arrangement permit dissent;

(e) a resolution to authorize or ratify the sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the company's undertaking;

(f) a resolution to authorize the Continuance of the company into a jurisdiction other than British Columbia;

17


(g) any other resolution, if dissent is authorized by the resolution; or
(h) any court order that permits dissent.

The ABCA contains a similar dissent remedy, subject to certain qualifications. Regarding (b) and (c) above, under the ABCA, there is no right of dissent in respect of an amalgamation between a corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, or between wholly-owned subsidiaries of the same corporation. The ABCA also contains a dissent remedy where a corporation resolves to amend its articles to add, change or remove any provisions restricting or constraining the issue, or transfer of shares of a class.

Oppression Remedies

Under the BCBCA, a shareholder of a company has the right to apply to the court on the ground that:

(a) the affairs of the company are being or have been conducted, or that the powers of the directors are being or have been exercised, in a manner oppressive to one or more of the shareholders, including the applicant; or
(b) that some act of the company has been done or threatened, or that some resolution of the shareholders or of the shareholders holding shares of a class or series of shares has been passed or is proposed, that is unfairly prejudicial to one or more of the shareholders, including the applicant.

On such an application, the court may make any interim or final order it considers appropriate including an order to prohibit any act proposed by the company.

The ABCA contains rights that are substantially broader in that they are available to a larger class of complainants. Under the ABCA, a shareholder, former shareholder, director, former director, officer, or former officer of a corporation or any of its affiliates, or any other person who, in the discretion of the court, is a proper person to seek an oppression remedy, may apply to the court for an order to rectify the matters complained of where in respect of a corporation or any of its affiliates, any act or omission of the corporation or its affiliates effects a result, the business or affairs of the corporation or any of its affiliates are or have been carried on or conducted in a manner, or the powers of the directors of the corporation or its affiliates are or have been exercised in a manner, that is oppressive or unfairly prejudicial to, or that unfairly disregards the interests of, any security holder, creditor, director, or officer.

Shareholder Derivative Actions

Under the BCBCA, a shareholder or director of a company may, with leave of the court, bring an action in the name and on behalf of the company to enforce a right, duty or obligation owed to the company that could be enforced by the company itself or to obtain damages for any breach of such a right, duty or obligation.

A broader right to bring a derivative action is contained in the ABCA, and this right also extends to officers, former shareholders, former directors, and former officers of a corporation or its affiliates, and any person, who, in the discretion of the court, is a proper person to make an application to the court to bring a derivative action. In addition, the ABCA permits derivative actions to be commenced, with leave of the court, in the name and on behalf of a corporation or any of its subsidiaries.

Shareholders' Proposals

A shareholder of a corporation incorporated under the ABCA who is entitled to vote may submit notice of a shareholder proposal. To be eligible to make a proposal, a person must:

(a) be a registered holder or beneficial owner of a prescribed number of shares for a prescribed period. Under the regulations currently in effect, the prescribed number of shares is the number of voting

18


shares (i) that is equal to at least 1% of all issued voting shares of the corporation as of the day on which the registered holder or beneficial owner of the shares submits a proposal, or (ii) whose fair market value as determined as of the close of business on the day before the registered holder or beneficial owner of the shares submits the proposal is at least $2,000. Under the regulations currently in effect, the prescribed period is the 6-month period immediately before the day on which the registered holder or beneficial owner of the shares submits the proposal;

(b) have the prescribed level of support of other registered holders or beneficial owners of shares. Under the regulations currently in effect, the prescribed level of support for the proposal by other registered holders or beneficial owners of shares is at least 5% of the issued voting shares of the corporation;

(c) provide to the corporation their name and address and the names and addresses of those registered holders or beneficial owners of shares who support the proposal; and

(d) continue to hold or own the prescribed number of shares up to and including the day of the meeting at which the proposal is to be made.

In comparison, a person submitting a proposal under the BCBCA must have been a registered owner or beneficial owner of one or more shares carrying the right to vote at general meetings and must have owned such shares for an uninterrupted period of at least two years before the date of signing the proposal.

The ABCA permits holders of not less than 5% of the issued shares that carry the right to vote at a meeting to require the directors to call and hold a meeting of shareholders of a company for the purposes stated in the requisition. If the directors do not call a meeting within 21 days of receiving the requisition, any shareholder who signed the requisition may call the meeting.

Place of Meetings

The BCBCA provides that meetings of shareholders may be held at the place outside of British Columbia provided by the articles, or as approved in writing by the BC Registrar before such meeting is held, or approved by an ordinary resolution (provided that such a location outside of British Columbia is not restricted as a location for meetings under the articles).

Directors

Both the BCBCA and ABCA provide that a public company in the case of the BCBCA and a distributing corporation in the case of the ABCA must have a minimum of three directors.

Under the ABCA, directors may be removed by ordinary resolution whereas under the BCBCA, directors may be removed by a special resolution or, if the by-laws of a company otherwise provide that a director may be removed by a resolution of the shareholders entitled to vote at general meetings passed by less than a special majority or may be removed by some other method, by the resolution or method specified.

Continuance Resolution Dissent Rights

The following description of dissent rights to which dissenting Shareholders are entitled is not a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by a dissenting Shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of such dissenting Shareholder's Common Shares and is qualified in its entirety by the reference to the full text of Section 191 of the ABCA, which is attached to this Circular as Appendix "C".

The ABCA requires strict adherence to the procedures established therein and failure to do so may result in the loss of all dissenters' rights. Accordingly, each Shareholder who might desire to exercise the dissenters' rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of the section and consult such Shareholder's legal advisor.

Shareholders are entitled to dissent in respect of the Continuance in accordance with section 191 of the ABCA. Strict compliance with the provisions of section 191 is required in order to exercise the right to dissent. Provided the Continuance becomes effective, each dissenting Shareholder will be entitled to be paid the fair value of their Common Shares in respect of which such Shareholder dissents in accordance with section 191 of the ABCA, determined as of the close of business on the last business day before the day on which the Continuance Resolution was adopted. Persons who are beneficial owners of Common Shares registered in the name of a broker, custodian, nominee or other Intermediary who wish to dissent should be aware that only the registered holders of such Common Shares are entitled to dissent.

Accordingly, a beneficial owner of Common Shares desiring to exercise their right to dissent must make arrangements for the Common Shares beneficially owned by such person to be registered in their name, or alternatively, make arrangements for the registered holder of their Common Shares to dissent on their behalf. See Appendix "C" for the full text of section 191 of the ABCA.

In order to be effective, a written notice of objection to the Continuance Resolution must be received by the Company prior to the commencement of the Meeting, or at the Meeting.

The foregoing summary does not purport to provide a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by a dissenting Shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of their Common Shares.

The above is intended only to be a brief summary of the dissenting shareholder provisions of the ABCA. A shareholder of the Company wishing to exercise a right to dissent should seek independent legal advice. Failure to comply strictly with the provisions of the statute may prejudice the right of dissent.

In absence of instructions to the contrary, proxies given pursuant to the solicitation by management will be voted FOR the Continuance Resolution The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the Continuance Resolution.

The full text of the Continuance Resolution is set forth in Appendix "A" – Continuance Resolution.

To effect the name change, the Company is required, pursuant Section 173(1) of the ABCA, to obtain approval of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the Shareholders at the Meeting in person or by proxy (the "Name Change Resolution").

In absence of instructions to the contrary, proxies given pursuant to the solicitation by management will be voted FOR the Name Change Resolution The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the Name Change Resolution.

The full text of the Name Change Resolution is set forth in Appendix "A" – Name Change Resolution.

  1. APPROVAL OF OMNIBUS PLAN

In connection with the Qualifying Transaction, the Board proposes to adopt a new equity incentive compensation plan (the "Omnibus Plan"). The adoption and implementation of the Omnibus Plan is subject to the completion of the Qualifying Transaction and the approval of disinterested Shareholders, that is those who are not eligible to participate in the Omnibus Plan, at the Meeting by an ordinary resolution (the "Omnibus Plan Resolution"). The Omnibus Plan is intended to replace the Existing Plan, conditional and effective upon the completion of the Qualifying Transaction. The complete Omnibus Plan is set out in Appendix "E" appended to this Circular and a summary of its material terms is provided below. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this section shall have the meanings given to them in the Omnibus Plan.

Any existing Options that were granted prior to the effective date of the Omnibus Plan pursuant to the Existing Plan will continue in accordance with their terms. Upon the effective date of the Omnibus Plan, however, Options shall no longer be granted pursuant to the Existing Plan.

The purpose of the Omnibus Plan is to provide a variety of equity-based incentives, including Options, restricted share units ("RSUs"), performance share units ("PSUs" and together with the RSUs, "Share Units") and deferred shared units ("DSUs" and together with the Options and Share Units, the "Awards"), for employees, officers, consultants, directors and management consultants to continue their services for the Company or a subsidiary and to reward such participants for their performance of services. The Omnibus Plan will provide a means through which the Company or a subsidiary may attract and retain able persons to enter into its employment or into contractual arrangements.

The Omnibus Plan will allow the Board to grant Awards to provide incentives to employees, officers, consultants, directors and management consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries (the "Eligible Participants"). Awards may be granted at any time and from time to time to achieve the purposes of the Omnibus Plan set out above. Participation in the Omnibus Plan is voluntary and, if an Eligible Participant agrees to participate, the grant of Awards will be evidenced by an option agreement, a Share Unit agreement or DSU agreement, as applicable, with each such Eligible Participant. The interest of any Eligible Participant in any Award is non-assignable and non-transferable, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, except upon the death of the Participant.

The total number of Common Shares reserved and available for the grant and issuance of the Awards will be a rolling number equal to 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares, from time to time. The Common Shares outstanding on completion of the Qualifying Transaction will include the Common Shares held by current Shareholders and all Common Shares to be issued in connection with the Qualifying Transaction, including all Common Shares issued to former holders of NAKED Shares in connection with the Qualifying Transaction and any Common Shares issued in connection with the Concurrent Financing.

Key Terms of the Omnibus Plan

Eligible Participants

In respect of a grant of Options, an Eligible Participant is any Director, Officer, Employee, Consultant or Investor Relations Service Providers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. In respect of Share Units, an Eligible Participant is any Director, Officer, Employee or Consultant of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Investor Relations Service Providers). In respect of a grant of DSUs, an Eligible Participant is any Non-Employee Director (other than Investor Relations Service Providers).

Award Types

Options, PSUs, RSUs and DSUs.

Administration of Plan

The Omnibus Plan shall be administered and interpreted by the Board or, if the Board by resolution so decides, by a committee appointed by the Board. Subject to the terms of the Omnibus Plan, applicable law and the rules of the applicable Exchanges, the Board (or its delegate) will have the power and authority to (i) designate the Eligible Participants who will receive Awards (an Eligible Participant who receives an Award, a "Participant"), (ii) fix the number of Awards, if any, to be granted to each Eligible Participant and the date or dates on which such Awards shall be granted, (iii) determine the terms and conditions of any Award, including any vesting conditions, Performance Criteria, Performance Period or otherwise as permitted by the Omnibus Plan and the rules of any Exchanges, and (iv) make such amendments to the Omnibus Plan and Awards made under the Omnibus Plan as are permitted by the Omnibus Plan, and provided that, unless permitted under the applicable rules of any Exchange, no Award shall vest before the one-year anniversary from the date of grant.

Number of Common Shares

The total number of Common Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to Awards under the Omnibus Plan must not exceed 10% of the Outstanding Issue, less the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to any other Share Compensation Arrangement, if any, at any time. The share reserve will also be impacted by the "Share Counting" definitions as set out below.

Share Counting

Each Common Share subject to an Option, Share Unit or DSU shall be counted as reserving one Common Share under the Omnibus Plan.

Share Recycling

If an outstanding Award under the Omnibus Plan (or portion thereof) expires or is forfeited, surrendered, cancelled or otherwise terminated for any reason without having been exercised or settled in full, or if an outstanding Award (or portion thereof) is settled in cash and not Common Shares or if Common Shares acquired pursuant to such outstanding Award subject to forfeiture are forfeited, the Common Shares covered by such Award, if any, will again be available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan. Common Shares will not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Omnibus Plan with respect to any portion of an Award that is settled in cash.

Term

  • Options: The Board shall determine, at the time of granting the particular Option, the period during which the Option is exercisable, which shall not be more than ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted. All unexercised Options shall be cancelled, without any compensation, at the expiry of such Options.
  • Share Units: The Board shall determine, at the time of granting the Share Units, the date or dates on which such Share Units shall be granted and the relevant conditions, vesting provisions (including the applicable Performance Period and Performance Criteria, if any) and Restriction Period of such Award. Vesting conditions may, without limitation, be based on the passage of time during continued employment (or other service relationship) or the achievement of specified Performance Criteria, or both.

  • DSUs: The Board shall determine, at the time of granting the DSUs, the date or dates on which such DSUs shall be granted and the relevant conditions and vesting provisions. DSUs shall only vest, and a Participant is only entitled to redemption of a DSU, when the Participant ceases to be a director, officer or employee of the Company for any reason, including termination, retirement or death.

Redemption:

  • Options: An Option is exercisable by delivering a fully completed Exercise Notice specifying the number of Common Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment, in full, of (i) the Option Price multiplied by the number of Options being exercised as specified in such notice, and (ii) such amount in respect of tax obligations as the Company may require. As soon as practicable after such exercise but no later than ten Business Days following such exercise, the Company shall cause the transfer agent and registrar of the Common Shares to issue the aggregate number of Common Shares as specified in the Exercise Notice in certificated or uncertificated form, as permitted by the Omnibus Plan. A Participant also has the option, when entitled to exercise an Option, to deal with such Option on a "cashless exercise" or "net exercise" basis in accordance with the terms of the Omnibus Plan.

  • Share Units / DSUs: A Participant's vested Share Units or DSUs shall be redeemed in consideration for a cash payment or the issuance of Common Shares on the applicable Redemption Date. Any cash payment to which the Participant is entitled, subject to applicable tax obligations, shall be paid to the Participant by the Company in cash, by cheque or by such other payment method as the Company and the Participant may agree. Where the Company has elected to settle all or a portion of the Participant's vested Share Units or DSUs in Common Shares issued from treasury, the Company shall deliver to the Participant the number of Common Shares to which the Participant is entitled in certificated or uncertificated form, as permitted by the Omnibus Plan.

Participation Limits:

Unless the Company has obtained the requisite disinterested Shareholder approval as required by the rules of any Exchange:

  • the maximum number of Common Shares that are issuable to Insiders, at any time, pursuant to the Omnibus Plan and all other share-based compensation arrangements of the Company is 10% of the Outstanding Issue; and
  • the maximum number of Common Shares issued to Insiders, within any twelve month period, pursuant to the Omnibus Plan and all other share-based compensation arrangements of the Company is 10% of the Outstanding Issue.

  • the maximum aggregate number of Common Shares that are issuable pursuant to all Awards granted or issued in any twelve month period to any one Consultant must not exceed 2% of the number of

24


Common Shares issued and outstanding, calculated as at the date any Award is granted or issued to the Consultant;

  • the maximum aggregate number of Common Shares that are issuable pursuant to all Options granted in any twelve month period to all Investor Relations Service Providers in aggregate must not exceed 2% of the number of Common Shares issued and outstanding, calculated as at the date any Option is granted to any such Investor Relations Service Provider; and
  • Investor Relations Service Providers may not receive any Awards other than Options.

Effect of Termination on Awards:

Each Option shall be subject to the following:

  • Resignation: Any unvested Option granted to such Participant will terminate and become void immediately upon such resignation. Any vested Option held by such Participant will cease to be exercisable on the earlier of (i) 90 days after the Participant's Termination Date, and (ii) the expiry date of such Option as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, after which such vested Option will expire.
  • Termination for Cause: Any vested or unvested Option granted to such Participant will terminate automatically and become void immediately. The determination by the Company that the Participant was discharged for Cause shall be binding on the Participant. "Cause" shall include, among other things, gross misconduct, theft, fraud, breach of confidentiality or breach of the Company's codes of conduct and any other reason determined by the Company to be Cause for termination.
  • Termination not for Cause: Any unvested Option granted to such Participant will terminate and become void immediately. Any vested Option granted to such Participant may be exercised by such Participant, subject to the limitations set forth in the Omnibus Plan. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, in its discretion, such vested Option shall only be exercisable until the earlier of (i) 90 days after the Participant's Termination Date (or such later date as the Board may, in its discretion, determine), and (ii) the expiry date of such Option as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, after which such vested Option will expire.
  • Retirement or Permanent Disability: Any unvested Option granted to such Participant will terminate and become void immediately. Any vested Option held by such Participant will cease to be exercisable on the earlier of (i) 90 days from the date of Retirement or the date on which the Participant ceases their employment or service relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary by reason of permanent disability, and (ii) the expiry date of such Option as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, after which such vested Option will expire.
  • Death: Each unvested Option granted to such Participant will terminate and become void immediately. Each vested Option held by such Participant on the Termination Date may be exercised by the legal representative of the Participant, provided that any such vested Option shall cease to be exercisable on the earlier of (i) the date that is 12 months after the Participant's death, or (ii) the expiry date of such Option as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, after which such vested Option will expire.
  • Leave of Absence: Upon a Participant electing a voluntary leave of absence of more than twelve months, including maternity and paternity leaves, the Board may determine, in its discretion, but subject to applicable laws, that such Participant's participation in the Omnibus Plan shall be terminated, provided that all vested Options in the Participant's Account will remain outstanding and in effect until the applicable exercise date, or an earlier date determined by the Board in its discretion.

25


Each Share Unit and/or DSU shall be subject to the following:

  • Termination for Cause and Resignation. The Participant's participation in the Omnibus Plan will be terminated immediately, all Share Units and/or DSUs credited to such Participant's Account that have not vested will be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant's rights that relate to such Participant's unvested Share Units and/or DSUs will be forfeited and cancelled on the Termination Date; provided, however, that any Participant (or the Participant's legal representative) shall not forfeit their entitlement to any DSUs as a result of the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 6.3 of the Omnibus Plan.

  • Death, Retirement, Leave of Absence or Termination of Service. Upon a Participant electing a voluntary leave of absence, or upon a Participant ceasing to be Eligible Participant as a result of (a) death, (b) retirement, (c) Termination of Service for reasons other than for Cause, (d) their employment or service relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary being terminated by reason of injury or disability or (e) becoming eligible to receive long-term disability benefits, all unvested Share Units in the Participant's Account as of such date relating to a Restriction Period in progress shall be forfeited and cancelled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board, in its sole discretion, instead accelerates the vesting or waives vesting conditions with respect to all or some portion of outstanding unvested Share Units, the date of such action is the Vesting Date, so long as no Share Units vest before the one year anniversary of being granted unless in connection with a Change of Control or the death of a Participant.

Change of Control:

In the event of a Change of Control, the Board will have the power, in its sole discretion, to modify the terms of the Omnibus Plan and/or the Awards to assist the Participants to tender into a take-over bid or participate in any other transaction leading to a Change of Control. For greater certainty, in the event of a take-over bid or any other transaction leading to a Change of Control, the Board shall have the power, in its sole discretion, to (i) provide that any or all Awards shall thereupon terminate, provided that any such outstanding Awards that have vested shall remain exercisable until consumption of such Change of Control, and (ii) permit Participants to conditionally exercise their vested Options, such conditional exercise to be conditional upon the take-up by such offeror of the Common Shares or other securities tendered to such take-over bid in accordance with the terms of such take-over bid (or the effectiveness of such other transaction leading to a Change of Control). If the proposed Change of Control is not completed within the prescribed time, (i) the conditional exercise of vested Options shall be deemed to be null, void, and of no effect; (ii) Common Shares issued pursuant to the vested Options shall be returned; and (iii) the original terms of the Options will apply.

Assignment:

Each Award granted under the Omnibus Plan is personal to the Participant and shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or by the laws of succession of the domicile of the deceased Participant. No Award granted shall be pledged, hypothecated, charged, transferred, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of on pain of nullity.

Amendment:

The Board may suspend or terminate the Omnibus Plan at any time, or from time to time amend or revise the terms of the Omnibus Plan or any granted Award, without the consent of the Participants, provided that such suspension, termination, amendment or revision will (i) not adversely alter or impair the rights of any Participant without the consent of such Participant (except as permitted by the Omnibus Plan), and (ii) be in compliance with applicable law.

26


The Board may, from time to time, without approval of the Shareholders of the Company, make the following amendments to the Omnibus Plan:

  • any amendment necessary to comply with applicable law (including taxation laws), or the requirements of the Exchange (or any other stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed) or any other regulatory body;
  • any amendment of a "housekeeping" nature, including to clarify the meaning of an existing provision of the Omnibus Plan, correct or supplement any provision of the Omnibus Plan that is inconsistent with any other provision of the Omnibus Plan, correct any grammatical or typographical errors, or amend the definitions in the Omnibus Plan; and
  • any amendment regarding the administration of the Omnibus Plan.

The Board shall be required to obtain Shareholder approval, or disinterested Shareholder approval, where applicable, to make the following amendments:

  • any increase to the maximum number of Common Shares issuable under the Omnibus Plan, except in the event of an adjustment pursuant to the Omnibus Plan;
  • except in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the Omnibus Plan, any amendment which reduces the Option Price of an Option or any cancellation of an Option and replacement of such Option with an Option with a lower Option Price;
  • any amendment which extends the expiry date of any Award, or the Restriction Period of any Share Unit, beyond the original expiry date or Restriction Period;
  • any amendment which would permit Awards granted under the Omnibus Plan to be transferable or assignable, other than for normal estate settlement purposes;
  • any amendment to the participation limits under the Omnibus Plan; and
  • any amendment to the definition of an Eligible Participant under the Omnibus Plan.

STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation of Named Executive Officers: Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The purpose of this statement of executive compensation on Form 51-102F6V – Statement of Executive Compensation-Venture Issuers ("Form 51-102F6V") is to describe and explain the Company's executive compensation strategy, philosophy, objectives and processes and to discuss compensation decisions made by the Company in Fiscal 2024. In this Form 51-102F6V, a Named Executive Officer ("NEO") means each of the following individuals for Fiscal 2024: (i) the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO"); (ii) the Company's Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO").

Based on the foregoing definitions, the Company's NEOs in respect of Fiscal 2024 were: (i) Scott McGregor, CEO and director of the Company, and (ii) Marshall Mewha, CFO and director of the Company.

The general objectives of the Board's compensation decisions are:

  • to encourage management to achieve a high level of performance and results with a view to increasing long-term shareholder value; and
  • to align management's interests with the long-term interest of shareholders.

Compensation of Named Executive Officers:

The Company was a capital pool company (as defined in the Exchange's Capital Pool program) during Fiscal 2024. Accordingly, no compensation was paid by the Company to a NEO, other than the issuance of Options as described under the heading "Summary Compensation Table: Stock Options and Other Compensation Securities" in this Form 51-102F6V. Under the Company's executive compensation program, executive officers of the Company are eligible to receive Options.

INDEBTEDNESS OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

No person who is, or who was within the 30 days prior to the date of this Circular, a director, executive officer, employee or any former director, executive officer or employee of the Company or a subsidiary thereof, and furthermore, no person who is a nominee for election as a director of the Company, and no associate of such persons is, or was as of the date of this Circular indebted to the Company or a subsidiary of the Company or indebted to any other entity where such indebtedness is subject to a guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or other similar arrangement or understanding provided by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

In accordance with National Instrument 58-101 – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices ("NI 58-101") and National Policy 58-201 – Corporate Governance Guidelines ("NP 58-201"), issuers are to disclose the corporate governance practices that they have adopted. NP 58-201 provides guidance on corporate governance practices. The Company is also subject to National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees


("NI 52-110"), which has been adopted in each of the Canadian provinces and territories and which prescribes certain requirements in relation to audit committees.

The Board is responsible for the governance of the Company. The Board and the Company's management consider good corporate governance to be central to the effective and efficient operation of the Company. Below is a discussion of the Company's approach to corporate governance.

Board of Directors

The Board and senior management consider good corporate governance to be central to the effective and efficient operation of the Company. The Board is committed to a high standard of corporate governance practices. The Board believes that this commitment is not only in the best interest of the Shareholders, but that it also promotes effective decision making at the Board level.

In accordance with NI 58-101, a director is deemed to be "independent" if they have no direct or indirect "material relationship" with the issuer. A "material relationship" is as a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a member's independent judgment. The Board maintains the exercise of independent supervision over management by ensuring that the majority of its directors are independent.

The Board is currently comprised of four directors being Scott McGregor, Marshall Mewha, Robert McCue and John Campbell. Both John Campbell and Robert McCue are independent within the meaning of NI 58-101. Neither Scott McGregor nor Marshall Mewha are independent within the meaning of NI 58-101, as each is an executive officer of the Company.

The Board believes that it functions independently of management and reviews its procedures on an ongoing basis to ensure that it is functioning independently of management.

Board Oversight

The Board exercises its independent supervision over the Company's management through a combination of formal meetings of the Board as well as informal discussions amongst the Board members. The independent directors can also hold scheduled meetings at which non-independent directors and members of management are not in attendance. Where matters arise at Board meetings which require decision making and evaluation that is independent of management and interested directors, the meeting breaks into an in-camera session among the independent and disinterested directors.

Directorships in Other Reporting Issuers

Name of Director Name of Reporting Issuer Market Position Term From - To
Scott McGregor Vencanna Ventures Inc. Canadian Securities Exchange Director September 2018 to Present
Robert McCue Golo Mobile Inc. Exchange Director April 2019 to Present
John Campbell Bonterra Energy Corp. Toronto Stock Exchange Director May 2020 to Present
Marshall Mewha Golo Mobile Inc. Exchange CFO, Director January 2022 to Present

Orientation and Continuing Education

While the Company does not have a formal orientation and training program, new members of the Board are provided with:


(a) a copy of the policies and mandates of the Board and its committees and copies of the Company's corporate governance policies, which provides information respecting the functioning of the Board;
(b) access to recent, publicly filed documents of the Company;
(c) access to management; and
(d) access to legal counsel in the event of any questions relating to the Company's compliance and other obligations.

Members of the Board are encouraged to communicate with management, legal counsel and, where applicable, auditors and technical consultants of the Company; to keep themselves current with industry trends and developments and changes in legislation with management's assistance; and to attend related industry seminars and visit the Company's operations. Board members have full access to the Company's records.

Ethical Business Conduct

In establishing its corporate governance practices, the Board has been guided by applicable Canadian securities legislation, including NP 58-201, and the guidelines of the Exchange for effective corporate governance. The Board is committed to a high standard of corporate governance practices. The Board believes that this commitment is not only in the best interests of its Shareholders, but that it also promotes effective decision making at the Board level.

The Board takes steps to ensure directors exercise independent judgment in considering transactions and agreements in respect of which a director or officer of the Company has a material interest, which include ensuring that directors and officers are familiar with the rules concerning reporting conflicts of interest and obtaining direction from the Company's CEO and/or the Company's legal counsel, as appropriate, regarding any potential conflicts of interest.

The Board encourages and promotes an overall culture of ethical business conduct by: (i) promoting compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations; (ii) providing guidance to officers and directors to help them recognize and deal with ethical issues; (iii) promoting a culture of open communication, honesty and accountability; and (iv) ensuring awareness of disciplinary action for violations of ethical business conduct.

Additionally, in order to encourage and promote a culture of ethical business conduct, the Board has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics (the "Code") wherein directors, officers and employees of the Company and others are provided with a mechanism by which they can raise complaints regarding financial and regulatory reporting, internal accounting controls, auditing or health, safety and environmental matters or any other matters and raise concerns about any violations of the Code in a confidential and, if deemed necessary, anonymous process.

The Board has instructed its management and employees to abide by the Code and to bring any breaches of the Code to the attention of the Chair of the Audit Committee. Compliance with the Code is monitored primarily through the reporting process within the Company's organizational structure.

It is a requirement of applicable corporate law that directors who have an interest in a transaction or agreement with the Company promptly disclose that interest at any meeting of the Board at which the transaction or agreement will be discussed and abstain from discussions and voting in respect to same if the interest is material. The Code imposes a similar disclosure requirement on all non-director representatives of the Company and requires such persons to report such conflict to the executive officer to whom that person reports in the course of their employment responsibilities, or, in the case of a senior executive officer, to the Audit Committee and fully inform such person or the committee, as applicable, of the facts and circumstances related

33


to the conflict or potential conflict. The representative is prohibited from taking any further action in respect of the matter or transaction giving rise to such conflict or potential conflict unless and until they are authorized to do so by their reporting officer or the Audit Committee.

Nomination of Directors

The Board has not appointed a nominating committee. As a result of the Company's size, its stage of development and the size of the Board, the Board considers that a nominating committee is not required at this time.

Assessments

The Board does not consider formal assessments useful given the stage of the Company's business and operations. However, the CEO meets annually with each director individually, which facilitates a discussion of his contribution and that of other directors. When needed, time is set aside at a meeting of the Board for a discussion regarding the effectiveness of the Board and its committees. If appropriate, the Board then considers procedural or substantive changes to increase the effectiveness of the Board and its committees. On an informal basis, the CEO is also responsible for reporting to the Board on areas where improvements can be made. Any agreed upon improvements required to be made are implemented and overseen by the Board. A more formal assessment process will be instituted as, if, and when the Board considers it to be necessary.

AUDIT COMMITTEE AND RELATIONSHIP WITH AUDITORS

The Audit Committee is a committee of the Board to which the Board delegates its responsibility for oversight of the financial reporting process. The Audit Committee is also responsible for managing, on behalf of the Shareholders, the relationship between the Company and the external auditor. NI 52-110 requires the Company, as a Venture Issuer (as defined in NI 52-110), to disclose annually in its information circular certain information relating to the Audit Committee and its relationship with the Company's independent auditors.

Audit Committee Charter

The Board has adopted a Charter for the Audit Committee, which sets out the Audit Committee's mandate, organization, powers and responsibilities. The full text of the Audit Committee Charter is attached hereto as Appendix "F" to this Circular.

The mandate of the Audit Committee is to oversee and provide assistance in financial reporting, financial policies and internal controls as well as to work with the external auditors to ensure the accuracy of the Company's financial disclosures. The Audit Committee must pre-approve all non-audit services to be provided by an external auditor.

Composition of the Audit Committee

As of the date hereof, the Audit Committee is composed of three members, Scott McGregor, Robert McCue and John Campbell. Both John Campbell and Robert McCue are considered independent members of the Audit Committee. Scott McGregor is also CEO and is therefore not independent as such term defined in NI 52-110.

Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Audit Committee of the Resulting Issuer will consist of Scott McGregor, Andrew Kaplan and Michael Gheyle. Each of Andrew Kaplan and Michael Gheyle will be considered independent members of the Resulting Issuer and will be considered "financially literate" in accordance with NI 52-110. Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, Scott McGregor, having served within the last three

34


years as an executive officer of the Company, will not be independent, as such term defined in NI 52-110. Scott McGregor will be considered "financially literate" in accordance with NI 52-110. The current policy and mandate of the Company with respect to the Audit Committee will be the policy and mandate of the Resulting Issuer following completion of the Qualifying Transaction.

(a) an understanding of the accounting principles used by the Company to prepare its financial statements;
(b) the ability to assess the general application of those principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and provisions;
(c) experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company's financial statements, or experience actively supervising individuals engaged in such activities; and
(d) an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.

Audit Committee Oversight

At no time since the commencement of the Company's most recently completed financial year has a recommendation of the Audit Committee to nominate or compensate an external auditor not been adopted by the Board.

Reliance on Certain Exemptions

Since the Company is a "Venture Issuer" pursuant to NI 52-110 (its securities are not listed or quoted on any of the Toronto Stock Exchange, a market in the United States of America or a market outside of Canada and the United States of America), it is exempt from the requirements of Part 3 (Composition of the Audit Committee) and Part 5 (Reporting Obligations) of NI 52-110.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee charter provides for the Audit Committee to establish the auditors' fees. Such fees have been based upon the complexity of the matters in question and the time incurred by the auditors. Management of the Company believes that the fees negotiated in the past with the auditors of the Company were reasonable in the circumstances and would be comparable to fees charged by other auditors providing similar services.

Audit Fees

10.2 Resolution Instead of Annual General Meeting

If all the shareholders who are entitled to vote at an annual general meeting consent by a unanimous resolution under the Business Corporations Act to all of the business that is required to be transacted at that annual general meeting, the annual general meeting is deemed to have been held on the date of the unanimous resolution.

The Company may by resolution of the directors choose a location outside of British Columbia for the purpose of the meeting.

whichever first occurs, the shareholder ceases to have any rights as a shareholder other than the right to be paid the fair value of the shareholder's shares in the amount agreed to between the corporation and the shareholder or in the amount of the judgment, as the case may be.

C-2


(15) Subsection (14)(a) does not apply to a shareholder referred to in subsection (5)(b).

(16) Until one of the events mentioned in subsection (14) occurs,

(a) the shareholder may withdraw the shareholder's dissent, or
(b) the corporation may rescind the resolution,

and in either event proceedings under this section shall be discontinued.

(17) The Court may in its discretion allow a reasonable rate of interest on the amount payable to each dissenting shareholder, from the date on which the shareholder ceases to have any rights as a shareholder by reason of subsection (14) until the date of payment.

(18) If subsection (20) applies, the corporation shall, within 10 days after

(a) the pronouncement of an order under subsection (13), or

notify each dissenting shareholder that it is unable lawfully to pay dissenting shareholders for their shares.

(20) A corporation shall not make a payment to a dissenting shareholder under this section if there are reasonable grounds for believing that

(a) the corporation is or would after the payment be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due, or
(b) the realizable value of the corporation's assets would by reason of the payment be less than the aggregate of its liabilities.

The purpose of this Plan is to attract and retain Employees, Officers, Directors and Consultants and to motivate them to advance the interests of the Company by affording them the opportunity to acquire an equity interest in the Company through the grant of Options under this Plan. The Plan is expected to benefit the Company's shareholders by enabling the Company to attract and retain high quality personnel by offering to them an opportunity to share in any increase in the value of the Shares to which they have contributed through their service to the Company. The Company represents that all Employees, Consultants or Management Company Employees who are granted Options hereunder will be bona fide Employees, Consultants or Management Company Employees at the time of grant.

PART 3

GRANTING OR AMENDING OF OPTIONS

3.1 Administration. This Plan shall be administered by the Board or, if the Board so elects, by the Committee. The Committee, if any, shall administer this Plan on behalf of the Board in accordance with such terms and conditions as the Board may prescribe, consistent with this Plan. Once appointed, the Committee shall continue to serve until otherwise directed by the Board. From time to time, the Board may increase the size of the Committee and appoint additional members, remove members (with or without cause), and either appoint new members in their place or decrease the size of the Committee, fill vacancies however caused, or remove all members of the Committee and thereafter directly administer this Plan. A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum, and, subject to the limitations in this Part 3, all actions of the Committee shall require the affirmative vote of members who constitute a majority of such quorum. Members of the Committee may vote on any matters affecting the administration of this Plan or the grant of Options hereunder, except that no such member shall vote upon the granting of an Option to such member (or to any affiliate thereof) (but any such member may be counted in determining the existence of a quorum at any meeting of the Committee during which action is taken with respect to the Options to be granted).

3.2 Powers of the Board. The Board will be responsible for the general administration of this Plan and the proper execution of its provisions, the interpretation of this Plan and the determination of all questions arising hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board has the power to:

(a) allot Shares for issuance in connection with the exercise of Options;

D-3


(b) grant Options hereunder;

(c) subject to applicable shareholder and regulatory approvals, amend, suspend, terminate or discontinue this Plan, or revoke or alter any action taken in connection therewith, except that no general amendment or suspension of this Plan will, without the written consent of all Optionees, alter or impair any Option previously granted under the Plan unless as a result of a change in Exchange policies or the Company's tier classification thereunder;

(d) delegate all or such portion of its powers hereunder as it may determine to one or more committees of the Board, either indefinitely or for such period of time as it may specify, and thereafter each such committee may exercise the powers and discharge the duties of the Board in respect of the Plan so delegated to the same extent as the Board is hereby authorized so to do; and

(e) in its sole discretion, amend this Plan (except for previously granted and outstanding Options) to reduce the benefits that may be granted to Eligible Persons (before a particular Option is granted) subject to the other terms thereof.

3.3 Grant by Resolution. The Board, on its own initiative or, if a Committee shall have been appointed for the purpose of administering this Plan, upon the recommendation of such Committee, may by resolution designate those Consultants, Employees, Officers and Directors to whom Options should be granted hereunder (unless the Committee has been authorized by the Board to pass such resolution, in which case the Committee may do as so authorized).

3.4 Terms of Options. The resolution of the Board or the Committee, if applicable, shall specify the number of Options to be granted, the price per Share to be paid upon exercise of the Options, and the period during which the Options may be exercised.

3.5 Options Granted Under this Plan. All Options granted under this Plan will be evidenced by an agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Schedule "A" (or such other form as may be determined by the Board in its discretion) showing the number of Options granted, the term of the Options, a reference to vesting terms, if any, and the exercise price of such Options. Subject to specific variations approved by the Board in connection with any grant from time to time, all terms and conditions set out herein will be deemed to be incorporated into and form part of such agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of such agreement and this Plan, the terms of this Plan shall govern.

3.6 Regulatory Approvals. The Board shall obtain all necessary regulatory approvals that may be required under applicable securities laws or the rules or policies of the Exchange.

3.7 Amendment of Options. Options may be amended under this Plan in accordance with the policies of the Exchange, whether granted under this Plan or otherwise, and the terms of this Plan shall apply mutatis mutandis.

PART 4 CONDITIONS GOVERNING THE GRANTING AND EXERCISING OF OPTIONS

4.1 Exercise Price. The exercise price of an Option granted under this Plan shall not be less than the Discounted Market Price, provided that:

(a) while the Company is a CPC, the exercise price cannot be less than the greater of: (i) the per Share price paid by the public investors for Shares under the Company's initial public offering and (ii) the Discounted Market Price;

(b) if Options are granted within 90 days of a distribution by the Company by a prospectus (with the 90 day period beginning on the date a final receipt is issued for such prospectus), the minimum exercise price of those Options will be the greater of: (i) the Discounted Market Price

D-4


and (ii) the per Share price paid by the public investors for Shares acquired under such distribution;

(c) for unit offerings, the minimum exercise price will be the "base" (or imputed) price of the Shares included in the unit; and

(d) for all other financings, the minimum exercise price will be the average price paid by public investors.

4.2 Expiry Date. Each Option shall, unless earlier terminated, expire on a date to be determined by the Board, which will not, in any event, exceed 10 years from the original date of grant.

4.3 Different Exercise Periods. The Board may, in its absolute discretion, upon granting Options under this Plan, specify different time periods following the date of grant of such Options during which the Optionee may exercise their Options.

4.4 Number of Shares. If the Company is a Tier 2 Issuer, the number of Shares reserved for issuance to any one person pursuant to Options granted under this Plan, together with any Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to options granted to that person during the previous 12 months, shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Shares, provided that the aggregate number of Options granted to:

(a) Consultants; or

(b) persons employed in investor relations activities on behalf of the Company,

must not exceed 2% of the outstanding Shares, unless the Exchange permits otherwise. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, for so long as the Company is a CPC, it must not grant any Options to persons employed in investor relations activities on behalf of the Company.

4.5 Death of Optionee. If an Optionee dies prior to the expiry of their Options, the Optionee's legal representative may, by the earlier of:

(a) one year from the date of the Optionee's death (or such lesser period as may be specified by the Board at the time of granting the Options or at any time thereafter subject to compliance with applicable laws); and

(b) the expiry date of the Options,

exercise all of any portion of the vested Options held by such Optionee.

4.6 Expiry on Termination or Cessation. If an Optionee ceases to be a Consultant, Director, Officer or Employee for any reason other than death, their Options shall terminate within a reasonable time as specified by the Board at the time of granting the Options, such period not to exceed a period of one year from the date of termination, and all rights to purchase Shares under such Options shall cease and expire and be of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options granted to any Optionee while the Company is a CPC, where the Optionee does not continue as a Director, Officer, Consultant or Employee of the Resulting Issuer following the completion of the Company's Qualifying Transaction, will have a maximum term of the later of 12 months after completion of the Qualifying Transaction and 90 days after the Optionee ceases to become a Director, Officer, Consultant or Employee of the Resulting Issuer, following which all rights to purchase Shares under such option shall cease and expire and be of no further force or effect.

4.7 Leave of Absence. Employment shall be deemed to continue intact during any sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed 90 days or, if longer, for so long as the Optionee's right to re-employment is guaranteed either by statute or by contract. If the period of

D-5


such leave exceeds 90 days and the Optionee's re-employment is not so guaranteed, then the Optionee's employment shall be deemed to have terminated on the 91st day of such leave.

4.8 Assignment. No Options granted under this Plan, or any rights thereunder, shall be transferable or assignable other than by will or pursuant to the laws of succession, except that, if permitted by the rules and policies of the Exchange, an Optionee shall have the right to assign any Options granted to the Optionee to a trust or similar legal entity established by such Optionee.

4.9 Notice. Options shall be exercised only in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Plan and, as applicable, the agreements under which they are respectively granted, and shall be exercisable only by notice in writing to the Company at its principal place of business.

4.10 Payment. Subject to any vesting requirements described in any individual option agreement, Options may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time prior to their lapse or termination. The exercise price of all Options must be paid in cash and no Options may be exercised pursuant to a cashless exercise, unless otherwise approved by the Exchange and any other applicable regulatory authorities. Shares purchased by an Optionee on exercise of an option shall be paid for in full at the time of their purchase (i.e. concurrently with the giving of the requisite notice).

4.11 Share Certificate. As soon as practicable after due exercise of Options hereunder, the Company shall issue a share certificate evidencing the Shares with respect to which the Options have been exercised (or confirmation of the electronic issuance thereof (in any case, a "Confirmation")). Until the issuance of such share certificate or Confirmation, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to such Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Options. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the share certificate or Confirmation is issued, except as provided in Part 6 hereof. All Shares acquired on exercise of Options prior to the completion of a Qualifying Transaction must also be deposited into escrow and will be subject to escrow until the Final Exchange Bulletin (as defined in the policies of the Exchange) is issued.

4.12 Vesting. No Option shall be exercisable until it has vested. Unless otherwise indicated by the Board at the time of grant, Options granted under this Plan shall fully vest on the date of grant; provided that, in accordance with the policies of the Exchange, Options issued to Consultants providing investor relations services to the Company must vest (and not otherwise be exercisable) in stages over a minimum of 12 months, with no more than 1/4 of the Options vesting in any 3 month period.

4.13 Hold Period. In addition to any resale restrictions under applicable securities legislation, all Options granted hereunder and all Shares issued on the exercise thereof will, if applicable under the policies of the Exchange, be subject to a hold period of four months from the date of grant, and the stock option agreements and any certificates representing such Shares will bear the following legend:

"Without prior written approval of the Exchange and compliance with all applicable securities legislation, the securities represented by this certificate may not be sold, transferred, hypothecated or otherwise traded on or through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange or otherwise in Canada, or to or for the benefit of a Canadian resident, until [insert date]."

4.14 Optionees. Only Directors, Officers, Consultants, Employees or Management Company Employees may be granted Options hereunder. If an Optionee is a company, it must agree not to effect or permit any transfer of ownership or option of securities of the company nor to issue further shares of any class of securities of the company to any other person as long as any Options granted to such Optionee hereunder remain outstanding, except with the prior written consent of the Exchange.

D-6


4.15 Automatic Extension of Term of Options. The expiry date of any Options will be automatically extended if the expiry date falls within a blackout period during which the Company prohibits Optionees from exercising their Options, provided that:

(a) the blackout period has been formally imposed by the Company pursuant to its internal trading policies as a result of the bona fide existence of undisclosed material information. For greater certainty, in the absence of the Company formally imposing a blackout period, the expiry date of any Options will not be automatically extended in any circumstances;

(b) the blackout period expires upon the general disclosure of the undisclosed material information and the expiry date of the affected Options is extended to no later than ten business days after the expiry of the blackout period; and

(c) the automatic extension will not be permitted where the Optionee or the Company is subject to a cease trade order (or similar order under applicable securities laws) in respect of the Company's securities.

PART 5

RESERVE OF SHARES FOR OPTIONS

5.1 Maximum Number of Shares Reserved Under Plan. Subject to adjustment as provided in Part 6 hereof, while the Company is a CPC, the aggregate number of Shares which may be subject to issuance pursuant to Options granted under this Plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares, the maximum number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan shall be up to 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares at the time of any grant of Options hereunder. Any stock options granted outside of this Plan, which are in existence on the effective date of this Plan shall be counted as if granted under this Plan. The terms of this Plan shall not otherwise govern such pre-existing stock options, unless otherwise determined by the Board.

5.2 Disinterested Shareholder Approval. Unless Disinterested Shareholder Approval is obtained, under no circumstances shall this Plan, together with all of the Company's other previously established or proposed stock options, stock option plans, employee stock purchase plans or any other compensation or incentive mechanisms involving the issuance or potential issuance of Shares, result in or allow at any time:

(a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under Options granted to Insiders to exceed 10% of the outstanding Shares at the time of grant of such Options;

(b) the grant to Insiders, within a one year period, of a number of Options exceeding 10% of the outstanding Shares at the time of grant;

(c) except in the case of a Tier 1 Issuer (or equivalent), the issuance to any one Insider and such Insider's Associates, within a one year period, of a number of Shares exceeding 5% of the outstanding Shares at the time of grant of any Options; or

(d) any reduction in the exercise price of Options granted to any person who is an Insider at the time of the proposed reduction.

PART 6

CHANGES IN SHARES

6.1 Share Consolidation or Subdivision. In the event that the Shares are at any time subdivided or consolidated, the number of Shares reserved for issuance on the exercise of any outstanding Options, and the exercise price therefor, shall be adjusted accordingly.

D-7


6.2 Stock Dividend. In the event that the Shares are at any time changed as a result of the declaration of a stock dividend thereon, the number of Shares reserved for issuance on the exercise of any outstanding Options, and the exercise price therefor, may be adjusted by the Board to such extent as the Board deems proper in its sole discretion.

6.3 Reorganization. Subject to any required approval of the Company's shareholders, if the Company shall be a party to any reorganization, merger, dissolution or sale or lease of all or substantially all of its assets, whether or not the Company is the surviving entity, any outstanding Options shall be adjusted so as to apply to the securities to which the holder of the number of Shares issuable on exercise of such Options would have been entitled by reason of such reorganization, merger or sale or lease of all or substantially all of the Company's assets; provided however that the Company may satisfy any obligations to an Optionee hereunder by paying to such Optionee, in cash, the difference between the exercise price of all unexercised Options granted hereunder and the fair market value of the securities to which the Optionee would be entitled upon exercise of all unexercised Options, regardless of whether all conditions of exercise relating to continuous employment, or otherwise, have been satisfied. Adjustments under this Section 6.3, or any determinations as to the fair market value of any securities, shall be made by the Board, and any reasonable determination made by the Board shall be binding and conclusive.

6.4 Rights Offering. If at any time the Company grants to the holders of its outstanding Shares rights to subscribe for and purchase, pro rata, additional securities of the Company or of any other entity, there shall be no adjustments made to the number of Shares exercisable under any outstanding Options at such time in consequence thereof.

PART 7 EXCHANGE'S RULES AND POLICIES APPLY

This Plan, and the granting and exercise of any Options hereunder, are and will be subject to such other terms and conditions as may be set out from time to time in the rules and policies of the Exchange and other applicable securities legislation, and such rules and policies shall be deemed to be incorporated into, and become a part of, this Plan. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of such rules and policies and of this Plan, the provisions of such rules and policies shall govern.

PART 8 AMENDMENT OF PLAN

8.1 Board May Amend. Subject to Part 5, the Board may, by resolution, amend or terminate this Plan, but no such amendment or termination shall, except with the written consent of the holders of any affected Options, change the terms and conditions of Options previously granted under this Plan which have not then been exercised or terminated.

8.2 Exchange Approval. Any amendment to this Plan or the terms of any Options granted hereunder shall not become effective until accepted for filing by the Exchange.

PART 9 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

9.1 Tax Withholding. The Company may withhold from any amount payable to any Optionee, either under this Plan or otherwise, such amount as it reasonably believes is necessary to enable the Company to comply with the applicable requirements of any federal, provincial, local or foreign laws, or any administrative policy of any applicable tax authority, relating to the withholding of tax or any other required deductions with respect to stock options (in any case, "Withholding Obligations"). The

D-8


Company may also satisfy any liability for any such Withholding Obligations, on such terms and conditions as the Company may determine, in its discretion, by:

(a) requiring an Optionee, as a condition to the exercise of any Options, to make such arrangements as the Company may require so that the Company can satisfy the Withholding Obligations, including requiring the Optionee to remit to the Company, in advance, or reimburse the Company for, any such Withholding Obligations; or

(b) selling, on the Optionee's behalf, or requiring the Optionee to sell, any Shares acquired by the Optionee on exercise of any Options, or retaining any amount which would otherwise be payable to the Optionee in connection with any such sale.

9.2 Other Plans Not Affected. This Plan shall not in any way affect the policies or decisions of the Board in relation to the remuneration of Directors, Officers, Employees or Consultants.

9.3 Effective Date of Plan. This Plan shall become effective upon receipt of shareholder approval, if such approval is required by applicable laws. However, Options may be granted under this Plan prior thereto. Any Options granted prior thereto may not be exercised prior to such date.

9.4 Headings. The headings used in this Plan are for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect, or be used in interpreting any of the provisions of, this Plan.

9.5 No Obligation to Exercise. Optionees shall be under no obligation to exercise any Options granted under this Plan.

ARTICLE 2

PURPOSE AND ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN; GRANTING OF AWARDS

2.1 Purpose of the Plan

The purpose of the Plan is to permit the Corporation to grant Awards to Eligible Participants, subject to certain conditions as hereinafter set forth, for the following purposes:

(a) to align the interests of the Corporation with those of the Eligible Participants, who share responsibility for the management, growth and protection of the business of the Corporation or a Subsidiary;

(b) to provide an incentive to such Eligible Participants to continue their services for the Corporation or a Subsidiary and to encourage such Eligible Participants whose skills, performance and loyalty to the objectives and interests of the Corporation or a Subsidiary are necessary or essential to its success, image, reputation or activities;

(c) to reward Participants for their performance of services while working for the Corporation or a Subsidiary; and

(d) to provide a means through which the Corporation or a Subsidiary may attract and retain able Persons to enter its employment or service.

2.2 Implementation and Administration of the Plan

(1) The Plan shall be administered and interpreted by the Board or, if the Board by resolution so decides, by a committee appointed by the Board. If such committee is appointed for this purpose, all references to the "Board" herein will be deemed references to such committee. Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board from adopting other or additional Share Compensation Arrangements or other compensation arrangements, subject to any required approval.

(2) Subject to Article 7 and any applicable rules of an Exchange, the Board may, from time to time, as it may deem expedient, adopt, amend and rescind rules and regulations or vary the terms of this Plan and/or any Award hereunder for carrying out the provisions and purposes of the Plan and/or to address tax or other requirements of any applicable jurisdiction.

(3) Subject to the provisions of this Plan, applicable laws and the rules of the TSXV, the Board is authorized, in its sole discretion, to make such determinations under, and such interpretations of, and take such steps and actions in connection with, the proper administration and operation of the Plan and any Award Agreements as it may deem necessary or advisable. The interpretation, administration, construction and application of the Plan and any provisions hereof made by the Board shall be final and binding on the Corporation, its Subsidiaries and all Eligible Participants.

(4) No member of the Board or any Person acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Board hereunder shall be liable for any action or determination taken or made in good faith in the administration, interpretation, construction or application of the Plan or any Award granted hereunder. Members of the Board, or any Person acting at the direction or on behalf of the Board, shall, to the extent permitted by law, be fully indemnified and protected by the Corporation with respect to any such action or determination.

E-11


  • 8 -

(5) The Plan shall not in any way fetter, limit, obligate, restrict or constrain the Board with regard to the allotment or issuance of any Shares or any other securities in the capital of the Corporation. For greater clarity, the Corporation shall not by virtue of this Plan be in any way restricted from declaring and paying stock dividends, repurchasing Shares or varying or amending its share capital or corporate structure.

2.3 Participation in this Plan

(1) The Corporation makes no representation or warranty as to the future market value of the Shares or with respect to any income tax matters affecting any Participant resulting from the grant, vesting, exercise or settlement of an Award or any transactions in the Shares or otherwise in respect of participation under the Plan. Neither the Corporation nor any of its directors, officers, employees, shareholders or agents shall be liable for anything done or omitted to be done by such Person or any other Person with respect to the price, time, quantity or other conditions and circumstances of the issuance of Shares hereunder, or in any other manner related to the Plan. For greater certainty, no amount will be paid to, or in respect of, a Participant (or any Person with whom the Participant does not deal at arm's length within the meaning of the ITA) under the Plan or pursuant to any other arrangement, and no additional Awards will be granted to such Participant (or any Person with whom the Participant does not deal at arm's length within the meaning of the ITA) to compensate for a downward fluctuation in the price of the Shares or any shares of the Corporation or of a related (within the meaning of the ITA) corporation, nor will any other form of benefit be conferred upon, or in respect of, a Participant for such purpose. The Corporation and its Subsidiaries do not assume and shall not have responsibility for the income or other tax consequences resulting to any Participant and each Participant is advised to consult with his or her own tax advisors.

(2) Participants (and their legal representatives) shall have no legal or equitable right, claim or interest in any specific property or asset of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries. No asset of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries shall be held in any way as collateral security for the fulfillment of the obligations of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries under this Plan. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, this Plan shall be unfunded. To the extent any Participant or his or her estate holds any rights by virtue of a grant of Awards under this Plan, such rights (unless otherwise determined by the Board) shall be no greater than the rights of an unsecured creditor of the Corporation.

(3) Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Corporation shall not offer financial assistance to any Participant in regards to the exercise of any Award granted under this Plan; provided, however, if any financial assistance is provided to a Participant, such lending of funds shall comply with Section 6.5 of Policy 4.4 and shall be subject to the prior approval of the Exchange.

2.4 Shares Subject to the Plan

(1) Subject to adjustment pursuant to Article 7 hereof, and as may be approved by the Exchange and the shareholders of the Corporation from time to time:

(a) the securities that may be acquired by Participants pursuant to Awards under this Plan shall consist of authorized but unissued Shares, provided that in the case of Share Units and DSUs, the Corporation (or applicable Subsidiary) may, at its sole discretion, elect to settle such Share Units or DSUs in Shares acquired in the open market by a Designated Broker for the benefit of a Participant; and

E-12


  • 9 -

(b) the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to Awards under the Plan (including such number of securities issued as Dividend Equivalents) shall be equal to a maximum of 10% of the Outstanding Issue from time to time, less the number of Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to any other Share Compensation Arrangement, if any (the "Share Limit"). During the terms of the Awards, the Corporation shall keep available at all times the number of Shares required to satisfy such Awards. Except for Options which shall be settled in Shares issued from treasury, Shares available for distribution under the Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares or shares reacquired by the Corporation in any manner.

(2) For the purposes of calculating the number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan:

(a) each Option shall be counted as reserving one Share under the Plan, and

(b) notwithstanding that the settlement of any Share Unit or DSU in Shares shall be at the sole discretion of the Corporation as provided herein, each Share Unit and each DSU shall, in each case, be counted as reserving one Share under the Plan.

(3) No Award may be granted if such grant would have the effect of causing the total number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan to exceed the Share Limit as set out above.

(4) If (a) an outstanding Award (or portion thereof) expires or is forfeited, surrendered, cancelled or otherwise terminated for any reason without having been exercised or exercised in full, or (b) an outstanding Award (or portion thereof) is settled in cash, then in each such case the Shares reserved for issuance in respect of such Award (or portion thereof) will again be available for issuance under the Plan.

2.5 Participation Limits

(1) In no event shall this Plan, together with all other established and outstanding Share Compensation Arrangements of the Corporation, permit at any time:

(a) the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under Awards granted to Insiders (as a group) at any point in time to exceed 10% of the Outstanding Issue; or

(b) the grant to Insiders (as a group), within any 12 month period, of an aggregate number of Awards exceeding 10% of the Outstanding Issue, calculated at the date an Award is granted to any Insider,

unless the Corporation has obtained the requisite disinterested shareholder approval.

(2) The aggregate number of Awards granted to any one Person (and companies wholly-owned by that Person) in any 12 month period shall not exceed 5% of the Outstanding Issue, calculated on the date an Award is granted to the Person, unless the Corporation has obtained the requisite disinterested shareholder approval.

(3) The aggregate number of Awards granted to any one Consultant in any 12 month period shall not exceed 2% of the Outstanding Issue, calculated at the date an Award is granted to the Consultant.

E-13


  • 10 -

(4) The aggregate number of Options granted to all Investor Relations Service Providers shall not exceed 2% of the Outstanding Issue in any 12 month period, calculated at the date an Option is granted to any such Person. Investor Relations Service Providers may not receive any Awards, other than Options.

(5) Upon authorization by the Board of the exercise of an Option on a "cashless exercise" basis pursuant to Section 3.6(3) or "net exercise" basis pursuant to Section 3.6(4), the number of Options exercised, surrendered or converted, and not the number of Shares actually issued by the Corporation, will be included in calculating the limits set forth in Section 2.4(1)(b) and this Section 2.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to an Award that has been settled in cash, cancelled, terminated, surrendered, forfeited or expired without being exercised, and pursuant to which no securities have been issued, will continue to be issuable under this Plan.

2.6 Granting of Awards

Any Award granted under or otherwise governed by the Plan shall be subject to the requirement that, if at any time counsel to the Corporation shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares subject to such Award, if applicable, upon any stock exchange or under any law or regulation of any jurisdiction, or the consent or approval of any stock exchange or any governmental or regulatory body, is necessary as a condition of, or in connection with, the grant, exercise or settlement of such Award or the issuance or purchase of Shares thereunder, as applicable, such Award may not be granted, exercised or settled, as applicable, in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained on conditions acceptable to the Board. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Corporation to apply for or to obtain such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval.

ARTICLE 3 OPTIONS

3.1 Nature of Options

An Option is an option granted by the Corporation to a Participant entitling such Participant to acquire a designated number of Shares from treasury at the Option Price, but subject to the provisions thereof. For greater certainty, the Corporation is obligated to issue and deliver the designated number of Shares on the exercise of an Option and shall have no independent discretion to settle an Option in cash or other property other than Shares issued from treasury. For the avoidance of doubt, no Dividend Equivalents shall be granted in connection with an Option.

3.2 Option Awards

(1) Subject to the provisions set forth in this Plan and any shareholder or regulatory approval which may be required, the Board shall, from time to time by resolution, in its sole discretion, (a) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive Options under the Plan, (b) fix the number of Options, if any, to be granted to each Eligible Participant and the date or dates on which such Options shall be granted (which shall not be prior to the date of the resolution of the Board), (c) subject to Section 3.3, determine the price per Share to be payable upon the exercise of each such Option (the "Option Price"), (d) determine the relevant vesting provisions (including Performance Criteria, if applicable) and (e) determine the Option Term, the whole subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in this Plan or in any Option Agreement, and any applicable rules of the Exchange. For Options granted to Employees, Management Company Employees and Consultants, the

E-14


  • 11 -

Corporation and the Participant are responsible for ensuring and confirming that the Participant is a bona fide Employee, Management Company Employee or Consultant, as the case may be.

(2) All Options granted herein shall vest in accordance with the terms of the Option Agreement entered into in respect of such Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options granted to Investor Relations Service Providers must vest in stages over a period of not less than twelve (12) months with no more than one-quarter (1/4) of the Options vesting in any three month period. No acceleration of the vesting provisions of Options granted to Investor Relations Service Providers is allowed without the prior acceptance of the TSXV.

3.3 Option Price

The Option Price in respect of any Option shall be determined and approved by the Board when such Option is granted, but shall not be less than the Market Value of a Share as of the date of the grant. A minimum exercise price cannot be established unless the Options are allocated to particular Participants.

3.4 Option Term

The Board shall determine, at the time of granting the particular Option, the period during which the Option is exercisable, which shall not be more than ten (10) years from the date of grant of the Option ("Option Term"). Unless otherwise determined by the Board, all unexercised Options shall be cancelled, without any compensation, at the expiry of such Options. Notwithstanding the expiration provisions hereof, if the date on which an Option Term expires falls within a Blackout Period, the expiration date of the Option will be the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the Blackout Period Expiry Date. Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, the ten (10) Business Day period referred to in this Section 3.4 may not be further extended by the Board.

3.5 Exercise of Options

Prior to its expiration or earlier termination in accordance with the Plan, each Option shall be exercisable at such time or times and/or pursuant to the achievement of such Performance Criteria and/or other vesting conditions as the Board, at the time of granting the particular Option, may determine in its sole discretion.

3.6 Method of Exercise and Payment of Purchase Price

(1) Subject to the provisions of the Plan, including Sections 3.6(3) and 3.6(4), an Option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable (from time to time as provided in Section 3.5 hereof) by the Participant (or by the legal representative of the Participant) by delivering a fully completed Exercise Notice, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "B", to the Corporation at its registered office to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation (or the individual that the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation may from time to time designate) or by giving notice in such other manner as the Corporation may from time to time designate, which notice shall specify the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment, in full, of (a) the Option Price multiplied by the number of Shares specified in such Exercise Notice, and (b) such amount in respect of withholding taxes and other applicable source deductions as the Corporation may require under Section 8.2. Such payment shall be in the form of cash, certified cheque, bank draft or any other form of payment deemed acceptable by the Board.

(2) Upon exercise of an Option, the Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after such exercise and receipt of all payments required to be made by the Participant to the Corporation in connection with

E-15


  • 12 -

such exercise, but no later than ten (10) Business Days following such exercise and payment, forthwith cause the transfer agent and registrar of the Shares either to:

(a) deliver to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant) a certificate in the name of the Participant representing in the aggregate such number of Shares as the Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant) shall have then paid for and as are specified in such Exercise Notice; or

(b) in the case of Shares issued in uncertificated form, cause the issuance of the aggregate number of Shares as the Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant) shall have then paid for and as are specified in such Exercise Notice, which Shares shall be evidenced by a book position on the register of the shareholders of the Corporation to be maintained by the transfer agent and registrar of the Shares.

(3) The Board may, on terms established by it in its sole discretion and in accordance with Exchange policies (including, if the Corporation is listed on the TSXV, Section 4.8(d)(i) of Policy 4.4), permit an Option to be exercised by way of a "cashless exercise" basis.

(4) The Board may, in its sole discretion and in accordance with Exchange policies (including, if the Corporation is listed on the TSXV, Section 4.8(d)(ii) of Policy 4.4), permit Options held by a Participant who is not an Investor Relations Service Provider to be exercised on a "net exercise" basis such that the Participant receives only the number of Shares underlying such Options that is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing:

(A) the product of the number of Options being exercised multiplied by the difference between the VWAP of the underlying Shares and the Option Price of such Options;

by

(B) the VWAP of the underlying Shares.

(5) Where the Board permits a cashless exercise of Options as provided in Section 3.6(3) or a net exercise of Options as provided in Section 3.6(4), the Corporation shall, where the holder of the Option would otherwise be entitled to a deduction under paragraph 110(1)(d) of the ITA in respect of the ordinary exercise of the Option, make the requisite elections under subsection 110(1.1) of the ITA to agree not to claim a corporate level deduction in respect of such Option.

(6) No fractional Shares will be issued upon the exercise of Options granted under the Plan and, accordingly, if a Participant would become entitled to a fractional Share upon the exercise of an Option, or from an adjustment pursuant to Section 7.1, such Participant will only have the right to acquire the next lowest whole number of Shares, and no payment or other adjustment will be made with respect to the fractional interest so disregarded.

3.7 Option Agreements

Options shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement, in such form not inconsistent with the Plan as the Board may from time to time determine with reference to the form attached as Exhibit "A". The Option Agreement shall contain such terms that may be considered necessary in order that the Option will comply with any provisions respecting options in the income tax laws (including, in respect of Canadian Participants (other than Canadian Participants that are Consultants), such terms and conditions so as to ensure that the Option shall be continuously governed by section 7 of the ITA) or other laws in force in any

E-16


country or jurisdiction of which the Participant may from time to time be a resident or citizen or provide services in or the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Corporation.

ARTICLE 4

RESTRICTED AND PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS

4.1 Nature of Share Units

A Share Unit is an Award that is a bonus for services rendered in the year of grant, that, upon settlement, entitles the recipient Participant to receive a cash payment equal to the Market Value of a Share or, at the sole discretion of the Board, a Share, and subject to such restrictions and conditions on vesting as the Board may determine at the time of grant, unless such Share Unit expires prior to being settled. Restrictions and conditions on vesting may, without limitation, be based on the passage of time during continued employment or other service relationship (sometimes referred to as a "Restricted Share Unit" or "RSU"), the achievement of specified Performance Criteria (sometimes referred to as a "Performance Share Unit" or "PSU"), or both.

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Share Unit Agreement, it is intended that Share Units awarded to U.S. Taxpayers will be exempt from Code Section 409A under U.S. Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(4), and accordingly such Share Units will be settled/redeemed by March 15th of the year following the year in which such Share Units are not, or are no longer, subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (as such term is interpreted under Code Section 409A). For greater certainty, upon the satisfaction or waiver or deemed satisfaction of all Performance Criteria and other vesting conditions, the Share Units of U.S. Taxpayers will no longer be subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, and will be settled/redeemed by March 15th of the following year (the "U.S. Share Unit Outside Expiry Date"). It is intended that, in respect of Share Units granted to Canadian Participants (other than Canadian Participants that are Consultants) as a bonus for services rendered in the year of grant, neither the Plan nor any Share Units granted hereunder will constitute a "salary deferral arrangement" as defined in subsection 248(1) of the ITA, by reason of the exclusion in paragraph (k) thereof. All Share Units granted hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for or in lieu of, ordinary salary and wages received or receivable by any Canadian Participant in respect of his or her services to the Corporation or a Subsidiary, as applicable.

4.2 Share Unit Awards

(1) Subject to the provisions herein and any shareholder or regulatory approval which may be required, the Board shall, from time to time by resolution, in its sole discretion, (a) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive Share Units under the Plan, (b) fix the number of Share Units, if any, to be granted to each Eligible Participant and the date or dates on which such Share Units shall be granted, (c) determine the relevant conditions, vesting provisions (including the applicable Performance Period and Performance Criteria, if any) and the Restriction Period of such Share Units, and (d) determine any other terms and conditions applicable to the granted Share Units, which need not be identical and which, without limitation, may include non-competition provisions, subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in this Plan and in any Share Unit Agreement. For Share Units granted to Employees, Management Company Employees and Consultants, the Corporation and the Participant are responsible for ensuring and confirming that the Participant is a bona fide Employee, Management Company Employee or Consultant, as the case may be.

(2) All Share Units granted herein shall vest in accordance with the terms of the Share Unit Agreement entered into in respect of such Share Units, provided that no Share Unit shall vest before the one-year anniversary from the date of grant.

E-17


  • 14 -

(3) Subject to the vesting and other conditions and provisions in this Plan and in the applicable Share Unit Agreement, each Share Unit awarded to a Participant shall entitle the Participant to receive, on settlement, a cash payment equal to the Market Value of a Share, or, at the discretion of the Board, one Share or any combination of cash and Shares as the Board in its sole discretion may determine, in each case subject to satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2. For greater certainty, no Participant shall have any right to demand to be paid in, or receive, Shares in respect of any Share Unit, and, notwithstanding any discretion exercised by the Board to settle any Share Unit, or a portion thereof, in the form of Shares, the Board reserves the right to change such form of payment at any time until payment is actually made.

4.3 Share Unit Agreements

(1) The grant of a Share Unit by the Board shall be evidenced by a Share Unit Agreement in such form not inconsistent with the Plan as the Board may from time to time determine with reference to the form attached as Exhibit "C". Such Share Unit Agreement shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of this Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions (including without limitation any recoupment, reimbursement or claw-back compensation policy as may be adopted by the Board from time to time) which are not inconsistent with this Plan and which the Board deems appropriate for inclusion in a Share Unit Agreement. The provisions of the various Share Unit Agreements issued under this Plan need not be identical.

(2) The Share Unit Agreement shall contain such terms that the Corporation considers necessary in order that the Share Units granted to U.S. Taxpayers will comply with Code Section 409A and any provisions respecting restricted share units in the income tax laws (including, in respect of Canadian Participants (other than Canadian Participants that are Consultants), such terms and conditions so as to ensure that the Share Units shall not constitute a "salary deferral arrangement" as defined in subsection 248(1) of the ITA, by reason of the exclusion in paragraph (k) thereof) or other laws in force in any country or jurisdiction of which the Participant may from time to time be a resident or citizen or provide services in or the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Corporation.

4.4 Vesting of Share Units

The Board shall have sole discretion to (a) determine if any vesting conditions with respect to a Share Unit, including any Performance Criteria or other vesting conditions contained in the applicable Share Unit Agreement, have been met, (b) waive the vesting conditions applicable to Share Units (or deem them to be satisfied), and (c) extend the Restriction Period with respect to any grant of Share Units, provided that (i) any such extension shall not result in the Restriction Period for such Share Units extending beyond the Share Unit Outside Expiry Date, and (ii) with respect to any grant of Share Units to a U.S. Taxpayer, such extension constitutes a substantial risk of forfeiture and such Share Units will continue to be exempt from (or otherwise comply with) Code Section 409A. The Corporation shall communicate to a Participant, as soon as reasonably practicable, the date on which all such applicable vesting conditions in respect of a grant of Share Units to the Participant have been satisfied, waived or deemed satisfied and such Share Units have vested (the "Vesting Date").

4.5 Redemption / Settlement of Share Units

(1) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.5 and Section 4.6, a Participant's vested Share Units shall be redeemed in consideration for a cash payment on the date (the "Redemption Date") that is determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, provided that such date shall not be later than:

E-18


  • 15 -

(a) in the case of a Canadian Participant, the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the Participant's Termination Date; or, (ii) the Share Unit Outside Expiry Date, and (b) in the case of a Participant who is a U.S. Taxpayer, the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the Participant's Termination Date; or, (ii) the U.S. Share Unit Outside Expiry Date.

(2) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.5 and Section 4.6, during the period between the Vesting Date and the Redemption Date in respect of a Participant's vested Share Units, the Corporation (or any Subsidiary that is party to an Employment Agreement or Consulting Agreement with the Participant whose vested Share Units are to be redeemed) shall, at its sole discretion, be entitled to elect to settle all or any portion of the cash payment obligation otherwise arising in respect of the Participant's vested Share Units either (a) by the issuance of Shares to the Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) on the Redemption Date, or (b) by paying all or a portion of such cash payment obligation to the Designated Broker, who shall use the funds received to purchase Shares in the open market, which Shares shall be registered in the name of the Designated Broker in a separate account for the Participant's benefit.

(3) Settlement of a Participant's vested Share Units shall take place on the Redemption Date as follows:

(a) where the Corporation (or applicable Subsidiary) has elected to settle all or a portion of the Participant's vested Share Units in Shares issued from treasury:

(i) in the case of Shares issued in certificated form, by delivery to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) of a certificate in the name of the Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) representing the aggregate number of Shares that the Participant is entitled to receive, subject to satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions in accordance with Section 8.2; or

(ii) in the case of Shares issued in uncertificated form, by the issuance to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) of the aggregate number of Shares that the Participant is entitled to receive, subject to satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2, which Shares shall be evidenced by a book position on the register of the shareholders of the Corporation to be maintained by the transfer agent and registrar of the Shares;

(b) where the Corporation or a Subsidiary has elected to settle all or a portion of the Participant's vested Share Units in Shares purchased in the open market, by delivery by the Corporation or Subsidiary of which the Participant is a Director, Officer, Employee or Consultant to the Designated Broker of readily available funds in an amount equal to the Market Value of a Share as of the Redemption Date multiplied by the number of vested Share Units to be settled in Shares purchased in the open market, less the amount of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2, along with directions instructing the Designated Broker to use such funds to purchase Shares in the open market for the benefit of the Participant and to be evidenced by a confirmation from the Designated Broker of such purchase;

(c) any cash payment to which the Participant is entitled (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any amount payable in respect of the Participant's Share Units that the Corporation or a Subsidiary has elected to settle in Shares) shall, subject to satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2, be paid to the

E-19


  • 16 -

Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) by the Corporation or Subsidiary of which the Participant is a Director, Officer, Employee or Consultant, in cash, by cheque or by such other payment method as the Corporation and Participant may agree; and

(d) where the Corporation or a Subsidiary has elected to settle a portion, but not all, of the Participant's vested Share Units in Shares, the Participant shall be deemed to have instructed the Corporation or Subsidiary, as applicable, to withhold from the cash portion of the payment to which the Participant is otherwise entitled such amount as may be required in accordance with Section 8.2 and to remit such withheld amount to the applicable taxation authorities on account of any withholding tax obligations, and the Corporation or Subsidiary, as applicable, shall deliver any remaining cash payable, after making any such remittance, to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) as soon as reasonably practicable. In the event that the cash portion payable to settle a Participant's Share Units in the foregoing circumstances is not sufficient to satisfy the withholding obligations of the Corporation or a Subsidiary pursuant to Section 8.2, the Corporation or Subsidiary, as applicable, shall be entitled to satisfy any remaining withholding obligation by any other mechanism as may be required or determined by the Corporation or Subsidiary as appropriate.

(4) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article 4, no payment, whether in cash or in Shares, shall be made in respect of the settlement of any Share Units later than December 15th of the third (3rd) calendar year following the end of the calendar year in which the services were provided in respect of which such Share Unit is granted (the "Share Unit Outside Expiry Date").

4.6 Determination of Amounts

(1) The cash payment obligation arising in respect of the redemption and settlement of a vested Share Unit pursuant to Section 4.5 shall be equal to the Market Value of a Share as of the applicable Redemption Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate cash amount to be paid to a Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) in respect of a particular redemption of the Participant's vested Share Units shall, subject to any adjustments in accordance with Section 7.1 and any withholding required pursuant to Section 8.2, be equal to the Market Value of a Share as of the Redemption Date for such vested Share Units multiplied by the number of vested Share Units in the Participant's Account at the commencement of the Redemption Date (after deducting any such vested Share Units in the Participant's Account in respect of which the Corporation (or applicable Subsidiary) makes an election under Section 4.5(2) to settle such vested Share Units in Shares).

(2) If the Corporation (or applicable Subsidiary) elects in accordance with Section 4.5(2) to settle all or a portion of the cash payment obligation arising in respect of the redemption of a Participant's vested Share Units by the issuance of Shares, the Corporation shall, subject to any adjustments in accordance with Section 7.1 and any withholding required pursuant to Section 8.2, issue to the Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable), for each vested Share Unit which the Corporation (or applicable Subsidiary) elects to settle in Shares, one Share. Where, as a result of any adjustment in accordance with Section 7.1 and/or any withholding required pursuant to Section 8.2, the aggregate number of Shares to be received by a Participant upon an election by the Corporation (or applicable Subsidiary) to settle all or a portion of the Participant's vested Share Units in Shares includes a fractional Share, the aggregate number of Shares to be received by the Participant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares.

E-20


  • 17 -

4.7 Award of Dividend Equivalents

(1) Dividend Equivalents may, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, be awarded as a bonus for services rendered in the year in respect of unvested Share Units in a Participant's Account on the same basis as cash dividends declared and paid on Shares as if the Participant was a shareholder of record of Shares on the relevant record date. Dividend Equivalents, if any, will be credited to the Participant's Account in additional Share Units, the number of which shall be equal to a fraction where the numerator is the product of (a) the number of Share Units in such Participant's Account on the date that dividends are paid multiplied by (b) the dividend paid per Share and the denominator of which is the Market Value of a Share calculated as of the date that dividends are paid. Any additional Share Units credited to a Participant's Account as a Dividend Equivalent shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting, Restriction Periods and expiry) as the Share Units in respect of which such additional Share Units are credited.

(2) In the event that the Participant's applicable Share Units do not vest, all Dividend Equivalents, if any, associated with such Share Units will be forfeited by the Participant.

ARTICLE 5 DEFERRED SHARE UNITS

5.1 Nature of DSUs

A DSU is an Award for services rendered, or for future services to be rendered, and that, upon settlement, entitles the recipient Eligible Participant to receive cash or acquire Shares, as determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, unless such DSU expires prior to being settled.

For greater certainty, the aggregate of all amounts each of which may be received in respect of a DSU shall depend, at all times, on the fair market value of shares in the capital of the Corporation or any corporation related (within the meaning of the ITA) thereto within the period that commences one year prior to the Participant's Termination Date and ends at the time the amount is received.

5.2 DSU Awards

(1) Subject to the provisions of this Plan, any shareholder or regulatory approval which may be required, and the requirements of paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations and Code Section 409A, the Board shall, from time to time by resolution, in its sole discretion, (a) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive DSUs under the Plan, (b) fix the number of DSUs, if any, to be granted to any Eligible Participant and the date or dates on which such DSUs shall be granted, and (c) determine the relevant conditions and vesting provisions for such DSUs, subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in this Plan and in any DSU Agreement, as applicable.

(2) All DSUs granted herein shall vest in accordance with the terms of the DSU Agreement entered into in respect of such DSUs, provided that no DSU shall vest before the one-year anniversary from the date of grant.

(3) Subject to the vesting and other conditions and provisions in this Plan and in any DSU Agreement, each DSU awarded to a Participant shall entitle the Participant to receive on settlement a cash payment equal to the Market Value of a Share, or, at the discretion of the Board, one Share or any combination of cash and Shares as the Corporation in its sole discretion may determine. For greater certainty, no Participant shall have any right to demand to be paid in, or receive, Shares in respect of any DSU, and, notwithstanding any discretion exercised by the Corporation to settle any DSU,

E-21


  • 18 -

or portion thereof, in the form of Shares, the Corporation reserves the right to change such form of payment at any time until payment is actually made.

5.3 DSU Agreements

(1) The grant of a DSU by the Board shall be evidenced by a DSU Agreement in such form not inconsistent with the Plan as the Board may from time to time determine with reference to the form attached as Exhibit "D". Such DSU Agreement shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of this Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions (including without limitation any recoupment, reimbursement or claw-back compensation policy as may be adopted by the Board from time to time) which are not inconsistent with this Plan and which the Board deems appropriate for inclusion in a DSU Agreement. The provisions of the various DSU Agreements issued under this Plan need not be identical.

(2) Each DSU Agreement shall contain such terms that the Corporation considers necessary in order that the DSUs granted thereunder to U.S. Taxpayers will comply with Code Section 409A and any provisions respecting deferred share units in the income tax laws (including, in respect of Canadian Participants, such terms and conditions so as to ensure that the DSUs shall not constitute a "salary deferral arrangement" as defined in subsection 248(1) of the ITA by reason of the exclusion in paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations) or other laws in force in any country or jurisdiction of which the Participant may from time to time be a resident or citizen or provide services in or the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation makes no representations that the DSUs comply with the requirements of paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations, and shall have no liability to any Participant for any failure to comply with such requirements.

5.4 Vesting of DSUs

(1) DSUs of a Participant will be fully vested on the Termination Date of such Participant, provided that no DSU shall vest before the one-year anniversary from the date of grant unless permitted by applicable Exchange policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the date on which any DSUs have vested falls within a Blackout Period, the vesting of such DSUs will be deemed to occur on the date that is 10 Business Days after the Blackout Period Expiry Date for a Participant that is not a U.S. Taxpayer. Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, the 10 Business Day period referred to in this Section 5.4 may not be further extended by the Board.

5.5 Redemption / Settlement of DSUs

(1) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.5 or Section 8.8 of this Plan, (i) DSUs of a Participant who is a U.S. Taxpayer shall be redeemed and settled by the Corporation as soon as reasonably practicable following the Participant's Separation from Service, and (ii) DSUs of a Participant who is a Canadian Participant (or who is neither a U.S. Taxpayer nor a Canadian Participant) shall be redeemed and settled by the Corporation as soon as reasonably practicable following the Participant's Termination Date, but in any event not later than, and any payment (whether in cash or in Shares) in respect of the settlement of such DSUs shall be made no later than, December 15th of the first (1st) calendar year commencing immediately after the Participant's Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a payment in settlement of DSUs of a Participant who is both a U.S. Taxpayer and a Canadian Participant:

(a) is required as a result of his or her Separation from Service in accordance with clause (i) above, but such payment would result in such DSUs failing to satisfy the requirements of

E-22


  • 19 -

paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations, and the Board determines that it is not practical to make such payment in some other manner or at some other time that complies with both Code Section 409A and paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations, then such payment will be made to a trustee to be held in trust for the benefit of the Participant in a manner that causes the payment to be included in the Participant's income under the Code but does not contravene the requirements of paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations, and the amount shall thereafter be paid out of the trust at such time and in such manner as complies with the requirements of paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations (and provided that if the terms of the trust are not such as would satisfy the requirements of paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations, then the DSUs shall be forfeited without compensation therefor); or

(b) is required pursuant to clause (ii) above, but such payment would result in such DSUs failing to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A because the Participant has not experienced a Separation from Service, and if the Board determines that it is not practical to make such payment in some other manner or at some other time that satisfies the requirements of both Code Section 409A and paragraph 6801(d) of the ITA Regulations, then the Participant shall forfeit such DSUs without compensation therefor.

(2) The Corporation will have, at its sole discretion, the ability to elect to settle all or any portion of the cash payment obligation otherwise arising in respect of the redemption and settlement of a Participant's DSUs either (a) by the issuance of Shares to the Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) on the DSU Redemption Date, or (b) by paying all or a portion of such cash payment obligation to the Designated Broker, who shall use the funds received to purchase Shares in the open market, which Shares shall be registered in the name of the Designated Broker in a separate account for the Participant's benefit.

(3) For greater certainty, the Corporation shall not pay any cash or issue or deliver any Shares to a Participant in satisfaction of the redemption of a Participant's DSUs prior to the Corporation being satisfied, in its sole discretion, that all applicable withholding taxes and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2 will be timely withheld or received and remitted to the appropriate taxation authorities in respect of any particular Participant and any particular DSUs.

(4) The redemption and settlement of a Participant's DSUs shall occur on the applicable DSU Redemption Date as follows:

(a) where the Corporation has elected to settle all or a portion of the Participant's DSUs in Shares issued from treasury:

(i) in the case of Shares issued in certificated form, by delivery to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) of a certificate in the name of the Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) representing the aggregate number of Shares that the Participant is entitled to receive, subject to satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions in accordance with Section 8.2; or

(ii) in the case of Shares issued in uncertificated form, by the issuance to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) of the aggregate number of Shares that the Participant is entitled to receive, subject to satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2, which Shares shall be evidenced by a book position

E-23


  • 20 -

on the register of the shareholders of the Corporation to be maintained by the transfer agent and registrar of the Shares;

(b) where the Corporation has elected to settle all or a portion of the Participant's DSUs in Shares purchased in the open market, by delivery by the Corporation to the Designated Broker of readily available funds in an amount equal to the Market Value of a Share as of the applicable DSU Redemption Date multiplied by the number of DSUs to be settled in Shares purchased in the open market, less the amount of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2, along with directions instructing the Designated Broker to use such funds to purchase Shares in the open market for the benefit of the Participant and to be evidenced by a confirmation from the Designated Broker of such purchase;

(c) any cash payment to which the Participant is entitled (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any amount payable in respect of the Participant's DSUs that the Corporation has elected to settle in Shares) shall, subject to satisfaction of any applicable withholding tax and other applicable source deductions under Section 8.2, be paid to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) by the Corporation in cash, by cheque or by such other payment method as the Corporation and Participant may agree; and

(d) where the Corporation has elected to settle a portion, but not all, of the Participant's DSUs in Shares, the Participant shall be deemed to have instructed the Corporation to withhold from the cash portion of the payment to which the Participant is otherwise entitled such amount as may be required in accordance with Section 8.2 and to remit such withheld amount to the applicable taxation authorities on account of any withholding obligations of the Corporation, and the Corporation shall deliver any remaining cash payable, after making any such remittance, to the Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) as soon as reasonably practicable. In the event that the cash portion elected by the Corporation to settle the Participant's DSUs is not sufficient to satisfy the withholding obligations of the Corporation pursuant to Section 8.2, any remaining amounts shall be satisfied by the Corporation by any other mechanism as may be required or determined by the Corporation as appropriate.

(5) For greater certainty, no DSU shall be redeemable or settled beyond a date that is twelve (12) months from the Participant's Termination Date or such date that a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant, and no Participant shall have any rights with respect to any DSU not redeemed or settled beyond such date.

5.6 Determination of Amounts

(1) The cash payment obligation by the Corporation in respect of the redemption and settlement of a DSU pursuant to Section 5.5 shall be equal to the Market Value of a Share as of the applicable DSU Redemption Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate cash amount to be paid to a Participant (or the legal representative of the Participant, if applicable) in respect of a particular redemption of the Participant's DSUs shall, subject to any adjustment in accordance with Section 7.1 and any withholding required pursuant to Section 8.2, be equal to the Market Value of a Share as of the DSU Redemption Date for such DSUs multiplied by the number of DSUs being redeemed (after deducting any such DSUs in respect of which the Corporation makes an election under Section 5.5(2) to settle such DSUs in Shares).

(2) If the Corporation elects in accordance with Section 5.5(2) to settle all or a portion of the cash payment obligation arising in respect of the redemption of a Participant's DSUs by the issuance of Shares, the Corporation shall, subject to any adjustments in accordance with Section 7.1 and any withholding required pursuant to Section 8.2, issue to the Participant, for each DSU which the Corporation elects to settle in Shares, one Share. Where, as a result of any adjustment in accordance with Section 7.1 and/or any withholding required pursuant to Section 8.2, the aggregate number of Shares to be received by a Participant upon an election by the Corporation to settle all or a portion of the Participant's DSUs includes a fractional Share, the aggregate number of Shares to be received by the Participant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares.

5.7 Award of Dividend Equivalents

(1) Dividend Equivalents may, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, be awarded, as an additional bonus for services rendered in that particular calendar year, in respect of DSUs in a Participant's Account on the same basis as cash dividends declared and paid on Shares as if the Participant was a shareholder of record of Shares on the relevant record date. Dividend Equivalents, if any, will be credited to the Participant's Account in additional DSUs, the number of which shall be equal to a fraction where the numerator is the product of (a) the number of DSUs in such Participant's Account on the date that dividends are paid multiplied by (b) the dividend paid per Share and the denominator of which is the Market Value of a Share calculated as of the date that dividends are paid. Any additional DSUs credited to a Participant's Account as a Dividend Equivalent shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting conditions) as the DSUs in respect of which such additional DSUs are credited.

(2) In the event that the Participant's applicable DSUs do not vest, all Dividend Equivalents, if any, associated with such DSUs will be forfeited by the Participant.

GENERAL CONDITIONS

6.1 General Conditions Applicable to Awards

Each Award shall be subject to the following conditions:

(1) Vesting Period. Each Award granted hereunder shall vest in accordance with the terms of this Plan and the Award Agreement entered into in respect of such Award. The Board has the right, in its sole discretion, to waive any vesting conditions or accelerate the vesting of any Award, or to deem any Performance Criteria or other vesting conditions to be satisfied, notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth for such Award; provided, however, that no acceleration of the vesting provisions of Options granted to Investor Relations Service Providers is allowed without the prior acceptance of the TSXV.

(2) Employment. Notwithstanding any express or implied term of this Plan to the contrary, the granting of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall in no way be construed as a guarantee by the Corporation or a Subsidiary to the Participant of employment or another service relationship with the Corporation or a Subsidiary. The granting of an Award to a Participant shall not impose upon the Corporation or a Subsidiary any obligation to retain the Participant in its employ or service in any capacity. Nothing contained in this Plan or in any Award granted under this Plan shall interfere in any way with the rights of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the employment, retention or termination of any such Participant. The loss of existing or potential profit

E-25


  • 22 -

in Shares underlying Awards granted under this Plan shall not constitute an element of damages in the event of termination of a Participant's employment or service in any office or otherwise.

(3) Grant of Awards. Eligibility to participate in this Plan does not confer upon any Eligible Participant any right to be granted Awards pursuant to this Plan. Granting Awards to any Eligible Participant does not confer upon any Eligible Participant the right to receive nor preclude such Eligible Participant from receiving any additional Awards at any time. The extent to which any Eligible Participant is entitled to be granted Awards pursuant to this Plan will be determined in the sole discretion of the Board. Participation in the Plan shall be entirely voluntary and any decision not to participate shall not affect an Eligible Participant's relationship or employment with the Corporation or any Subsidiary.

(4) Rights as a Shareholder. Neither the Participant nor such Participant's personal representatives or legatees shall have any rights whatsoever as a shareholder in respect of any Shares covered by such Participant's Awards by reason of the grant of such Award until such Award has been duly exercised, as applicable, and settled and Shares have been issued in respect thereof. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing and except as provided under this Plan, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such Shares have been issued.

(5) Conformity to Plan. In the event that an Award is granted or an Award Agreement is executed which does not conform in all particulars with the provisions of the Plan, or purports to grant Awards on terms different from those set out in the Plan, the Award or the grant of such Award shall not be in any way void or invalidated, but the Award so granted will be adjusted to become, in all respects, in conformity with the Plan.

(6) Non-Transferability. Except as set forth herein, each Award granted under the Plan is personal to the Participant and shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Awards may be exercised only by:

(a) the Participant to whom the Awards were granted;

(b) upon the Participant's death, by the legal representative of the Participant's estate; or

(c) upon the Participant's incapacity, the legal representative having authority to deal with the property of the Participant;

provided that any such legal representative shall first deliver evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of entitlement to exercise any Award. A Person exercising an Award may subscribe for Shares only in the Person's own name or in the Person's capacity as a legal representative.

(7) Participant's Entitlement. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, pursuant to Section 6.2), or unless the Board permits otherwise, upon any Subsidiary of the Corporation ceasing to be a Subsidiary of the Corporation, Awards previously granted under this Plan that, at the time of such change, are held by a Person who is a Director, Officer, Employee or Consultant of such Subsidiary of the Corporation and not of the Corporation itself, whether or not then exercisable, shall automatically terminate on the date of such change.

(1) Termination for Cause. Upon a Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Participant for Cause, any vested or unvested Option granted to such Participant shall terminate automatically and become void immediately. For the purposes of the Plan, the determination by the Corporation that the Participant was discharged for Cause shall be binding on the Participant. "Cause" shall include, among other things, gross misconduct, theft, fraud, breach of confidentiality or breach of the Corporation's codes of conduct and any other reason determined by the Corporation to be cause for termination.

(2) Termination not for Cause. Upon a Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Participant as a result of his or her employment or service relationship with the Corporation or a Subsidiary being terminated without Cause (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as a result of any Subsidiary of the Corporation ceasing to be a Subsidiary of the Corporation, as contemplated by Section 6.1(7)), (a) each unvested Option granted to such Participant shall terminate and become void immediately upon such termination, and (b) each vested Option held by such Participant shall cease to be exercisable on the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days after the Participant's Termination Date (or such later date as the Board may, in its sole discretion, determine, but which shall not be later than twelve (12) months from the Participant's Termination Date) and (ii) the expiry date of such Option as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, after which such vested Option will expire.

(5) Death. Upon a Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Participant by reason of death, (a) each unvested Option granted to such Participant shall terminate and become void immediately, and (b) each vested Option held by such Participant on the Termination Date may be exercised by the legal representative of the Participant, provided that any such vested Option shall cease to be exercisable on the earlier of (i) the date that is twelve (12) months after the Participant's Termination Date, or (ii) the expiry date of such Option as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, after which such vested Option will expire.

(6) Leave of Absence. Upon a Participant electing a voluntary leave of absence of more than twelve (12) months, including maternity and paternity leaves, the Board may determine, at its sole discretion but subject to applicable laws, that such Participant's participation in the Plan shall be terminated, provided that all vested Options shall remain outstanding and in effect until the earlier of (i) the date that is twelve (12) months after a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant, (ii) the applicable exercise date, or (iii) such earlier date determined by the Board at its sole discretion.

6.3 General Conditions Applicable to Share Units and/or DSUs

Except as otherwise provided in any Employment Agreement or Consulting Agreement or in any Award Agreement, each Share Unit shall be subject to the following conditions:

(1) Termination for Cause and Resignation. Upon a Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Participant for Cause or as a result of his or her resignation from the Corporation or a Subsidiary, the Participant's participation in the Plan shall be terminated immediately, all Share Units and/or DSUs credited to such Participant's Account that have not vested shall be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant's rights that relate to such Participant's unvested Share Units and/or DSUs shall be forfeited and cancelled on the Termination Date, provided that for any Share Units or DSUs that are unvested as of the Termination Date as a result of a Blackout Period, such Share Units or DSUs shall be deemed to be vested for the purposes of this Section 6.1(1).

(2) Death, Retirement, Leave of Absence or Termination of Service. Except as otherwise determined by the Board from time to time, at its sole discretion, upon a Participant electing a voluntary leave of absence of more than twelve (12) months, including maternity and paternity leaves, or upon a Participant ceasing to be Eligible Participant as a result of (a) death, (b) Retirement, (c) Termination of Service for reasons other than for Cause, (d) his or her employment or service relationship with the Corporation or a Subsidiary being terminated by reason of injury or disability or (e) becoming eligible to receive long-term disability benefits, the Participant's participation in this Plan shall be terminated immediately and all unvested Share Units credited to such Participant as of such date relating to a Restriction Period in progress shall be forfeited and cancelled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board, in its sole discretion, instead accelerates the vesting or waives vesting conditions with respect to all or some portion of outstanding unvested Share Units, the date of such action is the Vesting Date, so long as no Share Units vest before the one year anniversary of being granted unless in connection with a Change of Control or the death of a Participant.

(3) General. For greater certainty, where (a) a Participant's employment or service relationship with the Corporation or a Subsidiary is terminated pursuant to Section 6.3(1) or Section 6.3(2) hereof or (b) a Participant elects for a voluntary leave of absence pursuant to Section 6.3(2) hereof following the satisfaction of all vesting conditions in respect of particular Share Units but before receipt of the corresponding distribution or payment in respect of such Share Units, the Participant shall remain entitled to such distribution or payment until the earlier of (i) a date that is twelve (12) months from the Participant's Termination Date or such date that a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant, as applicable, or (ii) the Vesting Date. For greater certainty, no Share Unit shall be exercisable, redeemable or settled beyond a date that is twelve (12) months from the Participant's Termination Date or such date that a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant, and no Participant shall have any rights with respect to any Share Unit not redeemed or settled beyond such date.

ARTICLE 7
ADJUSTMENTS AND AMENDMENTS

7.1 Adjustment to Shares Subject to Outstanding Awards

At any time after the grant of an Award to a Participant and prior to the expiration of the term of such Award or the forfeiture or cancellation of such Award, in the event of (i) any subdivision of the Shares into a greater number of Shares, (ii) any consolidation of the Shares into a lesser number of Shares, (iii) any reclassification, reorganization or other change affecting the Shares, (iv) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation, or (v) any distribution to all holders of Shares or other securities in the capital of the Corporation of cash, evidences of indebtedness or other assets of the Corporation (excluding an ordinary course dividend in cash or shares, but including for greater certainty shares or equity interests in a Subsidiary or business unit of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries or cash proceeds of the disposition of such a Subsidiary or business unit) or any transaction or change having a similar effect, then the Board shall in its sole discretion, subject to the required approval of any Exchange, determine the appropriate adjustments or substitutions to be made in such circumstances in order to maintain the economic rights of the Participant in respect of such Award in connection with such occurrence or change, including, without limitation:

For greater certainty, in the event of a take-over bid or any other transaction leading to a Change of Control, the Board shall have the power, in its sole discretion, to (a) provide that any or all Options shall thereupon terminate, provided that any such outstanding Options that have vested shall remain exercisable until the consummation of such Change of Control, and (b) permit Participants to conditionally exercise their vested Options immediately prior to the consummation of the take-over bid and the Shares issuable under such Options to be tendered to such bid, such conditional exercise to be conditional upon the take-up by such offeror of the Shares or other securities tendered to such take-over bid in accordance with the terms of such take-over bid (or the effectiveness of such other transaction leading to a Change of Control). If, however, the potential Change of Control referred to in this Section 7.2 is not completed within the time specified therein (as the same may be extended), then notwithstanding this Section 7.2 or the definition of "Change of Control": (i) any conditional exercise of vested Options shall be deemed to be null, void and of no effect, and such conditionally exercised Options shall for all purposes be deemed not to have been exercised, (ii) Shares which were issued pursuant to the exercise of Options which vested pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be returned by the Participant to the Corporation and reinstated as authorized but unissued Shares, and (iii) the original terms applicable to Options which vested pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be reinstated. In the event of a Change of Control, the Board may exercise its discretion to accelerate the vesting of, or waive the Performance Criteria or other vesting conditions applicable

to, outstanding Share Units, and the date of such action shall be the Vesting Date of such Share Units.

(2) If the Corporation completes a transaction constituting a Change of Control and within twelve (12) months following the Change of Control a Participant who was also an officer or employee of, or Consultant to, the Corporation prior to the Change of Control has their Employment Agreement or Consulting Agreement terminated, then: (a) all unvested Options granted to such Participant shall immediately vest and become exercisable, and remain open for exercise until the earlier of (i) their expiry date as set out in the applicable Award Agreement, and (ii) the date that is 90 days after such termination or dismissal; and (b) all unvested Share Units shall become vested, and the date of such Participant's Termination Date shall be deemed to be the Vesting Date.

(c) any amendment which extends the expiry date of any Award, or the Restriction Period of any Share Unit beyond the original expiry date or Restriction Period, except in the event of an extension due to a Blackout Period; provided, however, that, for greater certainty, disinterested shareholder approval will be required for any amendment which extends the expiry date of an Option if the Participant is an Insider of the Corporation at the time of the proposed amendment;

8.2 Tax Withholding

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, all distributions, delivery of Shares or payments to a Participant (or to the legal representative of the Participant) under this Plan shall be made net of any applicable withholdings, including in respect of applicable withholding taxes required to be withheld at source and other source deductions, as the Corporation determines. If the event giving rise to the withholding obligation involves an issuance or delivery of Shares, then the withholding obligation may be satisfied in such manner as the Corporation determines, including (a) by the sale of a portion of such Shares by the Corporation, the Corporation's transfer agent and registrar or any trustee appointed by the Corporation pursuant to Section 8.1, on behalf of and as agent for the Participant, as soon as permissible and practicable, with the proceeds of such sale being used to satisfy any withholding and remittance obligations of the Corporation (and any remaining proceeds, following such withholding and remittance, to be paid to the Participant), (b) by requiring the Participant, as a condition of receiving such Shares, to pay to the Corporation an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy such withholding, or (c) any other mechanism as may be required or determined by the Corporation as appropriate.

8.3 Securities Law Compliance

(1) The Plan (including any amendments to it), the terms of the grant of any Award under the Plan, the grant of any Award, the exercise of any Option, the delivery of any Shares upon exercise of any Option, or the Corporation's election to deliver Shares in settlement of any Share Units or DSUs, shall be subject to all applicable federal, provincial, state and foreign laws, rules and regulations, the rules and regulations of applicable Exchanges and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may, as determined by the Corporation, be required. The Corporation shall not be obliged by any provision of the Plan or the grant of any Award or exercise of any Option hereunder to issue, sell or deliver Shares in violation of such laws, rules and regulations or any condition of such approvals.

(2) No Awards shall be granted, and no Shares shall be issued, sold or delivered hereunder, where such grant, issue, sale or delivery would require registration of the Plan or of the Shares under the securities laws of any jurisdiction or the filing of any prospectus for the qualification of same thereunder, and any purported grant of any Award or purported issue or sale of Shares hereunder in violation of this provision shall be void.

(5) With respect to Awards granted in the United States or to U.S. Persons (as defined under Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) or at such time as the Corporation ceases to be a "foreign private issuer" (as defined under the U.S. Securities Act), unless the Shares which may be issued upon the exercise or settlement of such Awards are registered under the U.S. Securities Act, the Awards granted hereunder and any Shares that may be issuable upon the exercise or settlement of such Awards will be considered "restricted securities" (as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act). Accordingly, any such Awards or Shares issued prior to an effective registration statement filed with the SEC may not be transferred, sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed by the Participant, directly or indirectly, without registration

E-32


  • 29 -

under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or unless in compliance with an available exemption therefrom. Certificate(s) representing the Awards and any Shares issued upon the exercise or settlement of such Awards prior to an effective registration statement filed with the SEC, and all certificate(s) issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, will be endorsed with the following or a similar legend until such time as it is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the U.S. Securities Act:

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY [for Awards add: AND ANY SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF] HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"), OR UNDER ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT EFFECTIVE UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (B) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT."

8.4 Reorganization of the Corporation

The existence of any Awards shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Corporation or its shareholders to make or authorize any adjustment, reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Corporation's capital structure or its business, or any amalgamation, combination, merger or consolidation involving the Corporation or to create or issue any bonds, debentures, shares or other securities of the Corporation or the rights and conditions attaching thereto or to affect the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar nature or otherwise.

8.5 Quotation of Shares

So long as the Shares are listed on one or more Exchanges, the Corporation must apply to such Exchange or Exchanges for the listing or quotation, as applicable, of the Shares underlying the Awards granted under the Plan, however, the Corporation cannot guarantee that such Shares will be listed or quoted on any Exchange.

8.6 Governing Laws

The Plan and all matters to which reference is made herein shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

8.7 Severability

The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the Plan shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision and any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be severed from the Plan.

8.8 Code Section 409A

It is intended that any payments under the Plan to U.S. Taxpayers shall be exempt from or comply with Code Section 409A, and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent

E-33


  • 30 -

with the requirements for avoiding taxes and penalties under Code Section 409A. Solely to the extent that Awards of a U.S. Taxpayer are determined to be subject to Code Section 409A, the following will apply with respect to the rights and benefits of U.S. Taxpayers under the Plan:

(1) Except as permitted under Code Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) payable to or for the benefit of a U.S. Taxpayer may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by the U.S. Taxpayer to the Corporation or any of its Affiliates.

(2) If a U.S. Taxpayer becomes entitled to receive payment in respect of any Share Units or any DSUs that are subject to Code Section 409A, as a result of his or her Separation from Service and the U.S. Taxpayer is a "specified employee" (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) at the time of his or her Separation from Service, and the Board makes a good faith determination that (a) all or a portion of the Share Units or DSUs constitute "deferred compensation" (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) and (b) any such deferred compensation that would otherwise be payable during the six-month period following such Separation from Service is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Code Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A, then payment of such "deferred compensation" shall not be made to the U.S. Taxpayer before the date which is six months after the date of his or her Separation from Service (and shall be paid in a single lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following the date of such Separation from Service) or, if earlier, the U.S. Taxpayer's date of death.

(3) A U.S. Taxpayer's status as a "specified employee" (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) shall be determined by the Corporation as required by Code Section 409A on a basis consistent with Code Section 409A and such basis for determination will be consistently applied to all plans, programs, contracts, agreements, etc. maintained by the Corporation that are subject to Code Section 409A.

(4) Although the Corporation intends that Share Units will be exempt from Code Section 409A or will comply with Code Section 409A, and that DSUs will comply with Code Section 409A, the Corporation makes no assurances that the Share Units will be exempt from Code Section 409A or will comply with it. Each U.S. Taxpayer, any beneficiary or the U.S. Taxpayer's estate, as the case may be, is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on or for the account of such U.S. Taxpayer in connection with this Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Code Section 409A), and neither the Corporation nor any Subsidiary shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold such U.S. Taxpayer or beneficiary or the U.S. Taxpayer's estate harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

(5) In the event that the Board determines that any amounts payable hereunder will be taxable to a Participant under Code Section 409A prior to payment to such Participant of such amount, the Corporation may (a) adopt such amendments to the Plan and Share Units and appropriate policies and procedures, including amendments and policies with retroactive effect, that the Board determines necessary or appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided by the Plan and Share Units hereunder and/or (b) take such other actions as the Board determines necessary or appropriate to avoid or limit the imposition of an additional tax under Code Section 409A.

(6) In the event the Corporation amends, suspends or terminates the Plan or Share Units as permitted under the Plan, such amendment, suspension or termination will be undertaken in a manner that does not result in adverse tax consequences under Code Section 409A.

APPENDIX "F"
AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

Mandate

The primary function of the audit committee (the "Committee") is to assist the board of directors (the "Board") of Haw Capital 2 Corp. (the "Company") in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities by reviewing the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company to regulatory authorities and shareholders, the Company's systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting and the Company's auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes. Consistent with this function, the Committee will encourage continuous improvement of, and should foster adherence to, the Company's policies, procedures and practices at all levels. The Committee's primary duties and responsibilities are to:

  • serve as an independent and objective party to monitor the Company's financial reporting and internal control system and review the Company's financial statements;
  • review and appraise the performance of the Company's external auditors; and
  • provide an open avenue of communication among the Company's auditors, financial and senior management and the Board.

Composition

The Committee will be composed of three directors from the Board, the majority of whom are not employees or senior officers of the Company, where possible.

At least one member of the Committee shall have accounting or related financial management expertise. All members of the Committee that are not financially literate will work towards becoming financially literate to obtain a working familiarity with basic finance and accounting practices. For the purposes of the Audit Committee Charter, the definition of "financially literate" is the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can presumably be expected to be raised by the Company's financial statements.

The members of the Committee shall be elected by the Board. Unless a Chair is elected by the full Board, the members of the Committee may designate a Chair by a majority vote of the full Committee membership.

Meetings

The Committee shall meet a least twice annually, or more frequently as circumstances dictate. As part of its job to foster open communication, the Committee will meet at least annually with the CFO and the external auditors in separate sessions.

Responsibilities and Duties

To fulfill its responsibilities and duties, the Committee shall:

(a) Review and update this Audit Committee Charter annually.

(b) Review the Company's financial statements, management, discussion and analysis and any annual and interim earnings and press releases before the Company publicly discloses this information as well as any reports or other financial information (including quarterly financial statements), which are submitted to any

F-1


governmental body, or to the public, including any certification, report, opinion, or review rendered by the external auditors.

(c) Review annually, the performance of the external auditors who shall be ultimately accountable to the Board and the Committee as representatives of the shareholders of the Company.

(d) Obtain annually, a formal written statement of the external auditors setting forth all relationships between the external auditors and the Company.

(e) Review and discuss with the external auditors any disclosed relationships or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the external auditors.

(f) Take, or recommend that the full Board take, appropriate action to oversee the independence of the external auditors.

(g) Recommend to the Board the selection and, where applicable, the replacement of the external auditors nominated annually for shareholder approval.

(h) At each meeting, consult with the external auditors, without the presence of management, about the quality of the Company's accounting principles, internal controls and the completeness and accuracy of the Company's financial statements.

(i) Review and approve the Company's hiring policies regarding partners, employees and former partners and employees of the present and former external auditors of the Company.

(j) Review with management and the external auditors the audit plan for the year-end financial statements and intended template for such statements.

(k) Review and pre-approve all audit and audit-related services and the fees and other compensation related thereto, and any non-audit services, provided by the Company's external auditors. The pre-approval requirement is waived with respect to the provision of non-audit services if:

(i) the aggregate amount of all such non-audit services provided to the Company constitutes not more than five percent of the total amount of revenues paid by the Company to its external auditors during the fiscal year in which the non-audit services are provided;

(ii) such services were not recognized by the Company at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and

(iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee by the Company and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Committee or by one or more members of the Committee who are members of the Board to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Committee.

Provided the pre-approval of the non-audit services is presented to the Committee's first scheduled meeting following such approval such authority may be delegated by the Committee to one or more independent members of the Committee.

Financial Reporting Processes

(a) In consultation with the external auditors, review with management the integrity of the Company's financial reporting process, both internal and external.

F-2


(b) Consider the external auditors' judgments about the quality and appropriateness of the Company's accounting principles as applied in its financial reporting.

(f) Review any significant disagreement among management and the external auditors in connection with the preparation of the financial statements.

(g) Review with the external auditors and management the extent to which changes and improvements in financial or accounting practices have been implemented.

(i) Review certification process.

Establish a procedure for the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the Company of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.
