MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR

as at November 10, 2025

GENERAL PROXY INFORMATION

Solicitation of Proxies

This management information circular (the "Circular") is furnished in connection with solicitation by management of Petrolympic ("Petrolympic" or the "Company") of proxies to be used at the Company's annual general meeting of the holders (the "Shareholders") of common shares (the "Common Shares") to be held on December 11, 2025 (the "Meeting") or at any adjournment thereof at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of meeting (the "Notice of Meeting"). It is anticipated that the solicitations will be made primarily by mail, proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone by directors, officers or employees of the Company at nominal cost. The cost of the solicitation will be borne by the Company. The Company has arranged for intermediaries to forward the Meeting Materials (as hereinafter defined) to beneficial owners of the Common Shares held of record by those intermediaries and the Company may reimburse the intermediaries for their reasonable fees and disbursements in that regard.

Appointment and Revocation of Proxies

The person(s) designated by management of the Company in the enclosed form of proxy are directors and/or officers of the Company. Each Shareholder has the right to appoint as proxyholder a person (who need not be a Shareholder of the Company) other than the person(s) named in the enclosed form of proxy to attend and act on the Shareholder's behalf at the Meeting or at any adjournment thereof. Such right may be exercised by striking out the names of the person(s) printed in the accompanying form of proxy and inserting the name of the person in the blank space provided in the enclosed form of proxy or by completing another suitable form of proxy and, in either case, delivering the completed and executed form of proxy as provided below.

In the case of registered shareholders, the enclosed form of proxy or voting instruction form must be mailed faxed or voted online at www.voteproxy.ca so as to reach or be deposited with Marrelli Trust Company Limited, the Company's transfer agent (in the case of registered holders and beneficial holders with control numbers) at c/o DSA Corporate Services LP., 82 Richmond Street East, 2nd Fl., Toronto, ON, M5C 1P1; Fax: 416-360-7812, not later than forty-eight (48) hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the City of Toronto, Ontario) prior to the time set for the Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof (the "Proxy Deadline"), or to your intermediary (in the case of beneficial holders) with sufficient time for them to file a proxy by the Proxy Deadline.

A Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by depositing an instrument in writing, including another proxy bearing a later date, signed by the Shareholder or by the Shareholder's attorney, who is authorized in writing, or by transmitting, by telephonic or electronic means, a revocation signed by electronic signature by the Shareholder or by the Shareholder's attorney, who is authorized in writing, to or at the head office of the Company at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or in the case of any adjournment of the Meeting, the last business day preceding the day of the adjournment, or with the Chair of the Meeting on the day of, and prior to the start of, the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. A Shareholder may also revoke a proxy in any other manner permitted by law.

Voting of Proxies

The voting rights attached to the Common Shares represented by proxies will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions indicated therein. If no instructions are given, the voting rights


5

attached to said Common Shares will be exercised by those persons designated in the form of proxy and will be voted IN FAVOUR of all the matters described therein.

The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary voting authority upon the persons named therein with respect to amendments to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting, and with respect to such matters as may properly come before the Meeting. As of the date hereof, management of the Company knows of no such amendments or other matters to come before the Meeting.

Non-Registered Holders

Only registered Shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. However, in many cases, Shareholders of the Company are "non-registered" Shareholders because the Common 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 Common Shares. More particularly, a person is not a registered Shareholder in respect of Common Shares which are held on behalf of that person (a "Non-Registered Holder") but which are registered either: (a) in the name of an intermediary (an "Intermediary") that the Non-Registered Holder deals with in respect of the Common Shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited) of which the Intermediary is a participant. Non-Registered Holders do not appear on the list of Shareholders of the Company maintained by the transfer agent.

In accordance with the requirements as set out in National Instrument 54-101 Communications with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer of the Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company has distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, this Circular, the form of proxy and the supplemental mailing list return card (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") to the clearing agencies and Non-Registered Holders, or Intermediaries for onward distribution to Non-Registered Shareholders, as applicable. If you are a Non-Registered Holder, your Intermediary will be the entity legally entitled to vote your Common Shares at the Meeting. Common Shares held by an Intermediary can only be voted upon the instructions of the Non-Registered Holder. Without specific instructions, Intermediaries are prohibited from voting Common Shares.

Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders unless a Non-Registered Holder has waived the right to receive it. Very often, Intermediaries will use service companies to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders. Generally, any Non-Registered Holder who has not waived the right to receive Meeting Materials will either:

(a) be given a form of proxy which has already been signed by the Intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature), which is restricted as to the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Non-Registered Holder, but which is otherwise not completed. Because the Intermediary has already signed the form of proxy, this form of proxy is not required to be signed by the Non-Registered Holder when submitting the proxy. If the Non-Registered Holder does not wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on the holder's behalf), the Non-Registered Holder must complete the form of proxy and deposit it with the Company's registrar and transfer agent, Marrelli Trust Company Limited, as provided above. If a Non-Registered Holder wishes to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on the holder's behalf), the Non-Registered Holder must strike out the names of the persons named in the proxy and insert the Non-Registered Holder's (or such other person's) name in the blank space provided; or

(b) more typically, be given a voting instruction form which is not signed by the


6

Intermediary, and which, when properly completed and signed by the Non-Registered Holder and returned to the Intermediary or its service company, will constitute voting instructions (often called a "proxy authorization form") which the Intermediary must follow. Typically, the proxy authorization form will consist of a one-page pre-printed form. Sometimes, instead of the one-page pre-printed form, the proxy authorization form will consist of a regular printed proxy form accompanied by a page of instructions, which contains a removable label containing a bar-code and other information. In order for the form of proxy to validly constitute a proxy authorization form, the Non-Registered Holder must remove the label from the instructions and affix it to the form of proxy, properly complete and sign the form of proxy and return it to the Intermediary or its service company in accordance with the instructions of the Intermediary or its service company. If the Non-Registered Holder does not wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on the holder's behalf), the voting instruction form must be completed, signed and returned in accordance with the directions on the form. If a Non-Registered Holder wishes to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on the Holder's behalf), the Non-Registered Holder must complete, sign and return the voting instruction form in accordance with the directions provided and a form of proxy giving the right to attend and vote will be forwarded to the Non-Registered Holder.

In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the votes attached to the Common Shares which they beneficially own. Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting in person, the Non-Registered Holder should strike out the names of the management proxyholders named in the form and insert the Non-Registered Holder's name in the blank space provided on the form. In either case, Non-Registered Holders should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediaries, including those regarding when and where the proxy or proxies authorization forms are to be delivered.

Only registered Shareholders have the right to revoke proxies. Any Non-Registered Holder who wishes to change its vote must arrange for its Intermediary to revoke its proxy on its behalf.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS OR COMPANIES IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

No director or executive officer of the Company, nor any person who has held such a position since the beginning of the Company's last financial year, nor any nominee for election as a director of the Company, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has any substantial or material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted on at the Meeting other than the election of directors, the appointment of auditors, and the approval of the Company's stock option plan (the "Stock Option Plan"), as amended (insofar as such directors and/or officers hold stock options. See "Executive Compensation" below for particulars on the options held by directors and officers.

The following information is intended to be a brief description of the Stock Option Plan and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Stock Option Plan, attached hereto as Schedule "B", and which is also available for review by any Shareholder up until the day preceding the Meeting at the offices of the Company at 82 Richmond Street East, Toronto, Ontario, M5C1P1 and will be available at the Meeting. The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Board, which has full and final authority with respect to the granting of all options thereunder subject to the requirements of the TSXV. Options may be granted under the Stock Option Plan to such Participants as the Board may from time to time designate.

Under the policies of the TSXV, options granted under such a rolling stock option plan are not required to have a vesting period, although the directors may continue to grant options with vesting periods, as the circumstances require. The Stock Option Plan authorizes the Board to grant stock options to the Participants on the following terms:

  1. The number of Common Shares that may be acquired under an option granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan shall be determined by the Board as at the time the option is granted, provided that:

a. the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to any one Participant under the Stock Option Plan or any other plan of the Company, shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares (calculated on a non-diluted basis) in any 12-month period unless the Company receives permission from the TSXV to exceed such threshold; and

b. the number of options granted to any one consultant in a 12-month period shall not exceed two percent 2% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares (calculated on a non-diluted basis) in any 12-month period.

  1. The Company shall obtain disinterested Shareholder approval for grants of options to insiders (as defined in the Securities Act (Ontario)), for a number of options exceeding ten percent (10%) of the issued Common Shares, within any twelve (12) month period and at any point in time.

  2. If any option granted shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, any un-purchased Common Shares to which such option relates shall be available for the purposes of the granting of options under the Stock Option Plan.

  3. The exercise price of an option shall not be less than from time to time permitted under the rules of the TSXV.

  4. No option may be exercisable for a period exceeding five (5) years from the date that the option is granted unless the Company receives approval from the TSXV.

  5. The options are non-transferable or assignable, except in certain circumstances. The options can only be exercised by the optionee as long as the optionee remains an eligible optionee pursuant to the Stock Option Plan or within a period of not more than ninety (90) days after ceasing to be an eligible optionee or, if the optionee dies, within one (1) year from the date of the optionee's death.

  6. On the occurrence of a sale by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets or in the event of a change of control of the Company, each Participant shall be entitled to


13

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Introduction

The compensation discussion and analysis section of this Information Circular sets out the objectives of the Company's executive compensation arrangements, the Company's executive compensation philosophy and the application of this philosophy to the Company's executive compensation arrangements. It also provides an analysis of the compensation design and the decisions that the Compensation Committee made in fiscal 2020 with respect to the Named Executive Officers. When determining the compensation arrangements for the Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee considers the objectives of: (i) retaining an executive critical to the success of the Company and the enhancement of shareholder values; (ii) providing fair and competitive compensation; (iii) balancing the interests of management and shareholders of the Company; and (iv) rewarding performance, both on an individual basis and with respect to the business in general. See the "Statement of Corporate Governance" below for more discussion on the Compensation Committee.

Benchmarking

The Compensation Committee considers a variety of factors when designing and establishing, reviewing


16

and making recommendations for executive compensation arrangements to all executive officers of the Company. The Company typically does not position executive pay to reflect a single percentile within the junior mining and oil and gas industry for each executive. Rather, in determining the compensation level for each executive, the Compensation Committee looks at factors such as the relative complexity of the executive's role within the organization, the executive's performance and potential for future advancement, the compensation paid by the other companies in the junior mining and oil and gas industry, and pay equity considerations.

Elements of Compensation

The compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers in any year consists of two primary components:

(a) base salary; and
(b) long-term incentives in the form of stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan. The Company believes that making a significant portion of the Named Executive Officer's compensation based on a base salary and long-term incentives supports the Company's executive compensation philosophy, as these forms of compensation allow those most accountable for the Company's long-term success to acquire and hold the Company's shares. The key features of these two primary components of compensation are discussed below:

1. Base Salary

Base salary recognizes the value of an individual to the Company based on his or her role, skill, performance, contributions, leadership and potential. It is critical in attracting and retaining executive talent in the markets in which the Company competes for talent. Base salaries for the Named Executive Officers are reviewed annually. Any change in base salary of a Named Executive Officer is generally determined by an assessment of such executive's performance, a consideration of competitive compensation levels in companies similar to the Company (in particular, companies in the junior mining and oil and gas industries) and a review of the performance of the Company as a whole and the role such executive officer played in such corporate performance.

2. Stock Option Awards

The Company provides long-term incentives to the Named Executive Officers in the form of stock options as part of its overall executive compensation strategy. (For a description of the material terms of the Stock Option Plan, see "Ratification of 10% Rolling Stock Option Plan" above). The Compensation Committee believes that stock option grants serve the Company's executive compensation philosophy in several ways: firstly, it helps attract, retain, and motivate talent; secondly, it aligns the interests of the Named Executive Officers with those of the shareholders by linking a specific portion of the officer's total pay opportunity to share price; and finally, it provides long-term accountability for Named Executive Officers.

Compensation of Directors

The Company did not pay any fees to directors for serving on the board (or any subcommittee) beyond reimbursing such directors for travel and related expenses.

Individual Director Compensation for Fiscal 2024

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTERS

Corporate Governance

Corporate governance relates to the activities of the Board, the members of which are elected by and are accountable to the Shareholders and takes into account the role of the individual members of management who are appointed by the Board and who are charged with the day-to-day management of the Company. National Policy 58-201 Corporate Governance Guidelines ("NP 58-201") establishes corporate governance guidelines that apply to all public companies. These guidelines are not intended to be prescriptive but to be used by issuers in developing their own corporate governance practices. The Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices, which are both in the interest of its Shareholders and contribute to effective and efficient decision making.

Pursuant to National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices ("NI 58-101"), the Company is required to disclose its corporate governance practices, as summarized below. The Board will continue to monitor such practices on an ongoing basis and, when necessary, implement such additional practices as it deems appropriate.

Board of Directors

The Board is currently comprised of five directors: Messrs. Mendel Ekstein, Andreas Jacob, Alain Fleury, Rodger Creamer, and Miles Pittman. All of the aforementioned directors are proposed to be nominated as directors at the Meeting.

NI 58-101 defines an "independent director" as a director who has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A "material relationship" is in turn defined as a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with such member's independent judgment. Mendel Ekstein and Andreas Jacob are not considered "independent" as a result of their positions as President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of the Company, respectively. The remaining directors are considered to be independent directors since they are all independent of management and free from any material relationship with the Company. The basis for this determination is that, within the last three years, none of the independent directors has worked for the Company, received remuneration from the Company (other than in their capacity as directors) or had material contracts with or material interests in the Company which could interfere with their ability to act with a view to the best interests of the Company.

The Board believes that it functions independently of management. To enhance its ability to act independent of management, the members of the Board may meet in the absence of members of


19

management and the non-independent directors or may excuse such persons from all or a portion of any meeting where a potential conflict of interest arises or where otherwise appropriate. Aside from the periodic meetings of the Compensation and Audit Committees, the Board did not hold any meetings of the independent directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Other Reporting Issuer Directorships

Currently, none of the directors of the Company are also directors of other reporting issuers (or the equivalent).

Orientation and Continuing Education

Each new director is given an outline of the nature of the business of the Company, its corporate strategy and current issues within the Company. New directors are also required to meet with management of the Company to discuss and better understand the Company's business and are given the opportunity to meet with counsel to the Company to discuss their legal obligations as directors of the Company.

In addition, management of the Company takes steps to ensure that its directors and officers are continually updated as to the latest corporate and securities policies which may affect the directors, officers and committee members of the Company as a whole. The Company continually reviews the latest securities rules and policies. Any such changes or new requirements are then brought to the attention of the Company's directors either by way of director or committee meetings or by direct communications from management to the directors.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board has found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Company's governing corporate legislation, the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual directors' participation in the decision making of the Board, in which the director has an interest, as well as adherence to the standards contained in the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics have been sufficient to ensure that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Company. Further, the Company's auditors have full and unrestricted access to the Audit Committee of the Company at all times to discuss the annual audits of the Company's financial statements and any related findings as to the integrity of the financial reporting process.

Nomination of Directors

The Company has established a Governance and Nominating Committee which is comprised of three directors: Rodger Creamer, Alain Fleury and Miles Pittman, all of whom were independent of management within the meaning of NI 58-101. The Governance and Nominating Committee meets at least twice annually and is responsible for: (a) seeking individuals qualified to become board members; (b) determining each proposed nominee's qualifications; (c) evaluating the independence of directors and potential directors; (d) considering issues involving possible conflicts of interest; (e) evaluating the performance of each director before recommending to the Board his/her nomination for an additional term as director; and (f) evaluating and recommending to the Board when new members should be added to the Board.

Compensation

The Company has established a Compensation Committee which is currently composed of two directors: Messrs. Alain Fleury and Rodger Creamer, all of whom were independent of management within the meaning of NI 58-101. The Compensation Committee meets at least twice annually and is responsible for making recommendations to the Board regarding: (a) CEO compensation; (b) compensation of other executives; (c) incentive compensation plans; and (d) employment agreements, severance


20

agreements, retirement agreements, change in control agreements and provisions, and any special or supplemental benefits for each officer of the Company. The Board then determines whether to adopt such recommendations as submitted or otherwise.

Other Board Committees

In addition to the Audit, Compensation and Governance and Nominating Committees, the Board also has a Reserves and Disclosure Committee.

The Reserves and Disclosure Committee is comprised of three directors, Messrs. Mendel Ekstein, Rodger Creamer and Alain Fleury. The Reserves and Disclosure Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company's disclosure practices and sets benchmarks for a preliminary assessment of materiality and determines when developments justify public disclosure. The Reserves and Disclosure Committee meets as conditions dictate and must be kept fully apprised of all pending material developments in the Company in order to evaluate and discuss those events and to determine the appropriateness and timing for the public release of information.

The Reserves and Disclosure Committee also adopted and oversees compliance with the Company's confidentiality and insider trading policies which prevent the Company's insiders from trading on the basis of material undisclosed information and require timely disclosure of permitted insider trading, all in accordance with Canadian securities law.

Assessment of Board Performance

The Board monitors the adequacy of information given to directors, communication between the Board and management and the strategic direction and processes of the Board and committees.

AUDIT COMMITTEE INFORMATION

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Board is authorized to provide for the granting, exercise and method of exercise of Options (as defined in paragraph 3(d) below), all on such terms (which may vary between Options granted from time to time) as it shall determine. In addition, the Board shall have the authority to: (i) construe and interpret this Plan and all option agreements entered into hereunder; (ii) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to this Plan and (iii) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. All determinations and interpretations made by the Board shall be binding on all Participants (as hereinafter defined) and on their legal, personal representatives and beneficiaries.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision contained herein, the Board shall have the right to delegate the administration and operation of this Plan, in whole or in part, to a committee of the Board or to the President or any other officer of the Company. Whenever used herein, the term "Board" shall be deemed to include any committee or officer to which the Board has, fully or partially, delegated responsibility and/or authority relating to the Plan or the administration and operation of this Plan pursuant to this Section 3.

(d) Options to purchase the Shares granted hereunder ("Options") shall be evidenced by (i) an agreement, signed on behalf of the Company and by the person to whom an Option is granted, which agreement shall be in such form as the Board shall approve, or (ii) a written notice or other instrument, signed by the Company, setting forth the material attributes of the Options.


  1. Shares Subject to Plan

(a) Subject to Section 15 below, the securities that may be acquired by Participants upon the exercise of Options shall be deemed to be fully authorized and issued Shares of the Company. Whenever used herein, the term "Shares" shall be deemed to include any other securities that may be acquired by a Participant upon the exercise of an Option the terms of which have been modified in accordance with Section 15 below.

(b) The aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, or any other plan of the Company, shall not, at the time of the stock option grant, exceed ten percent (10%) of the total number of issued and outstanding Shares (calculated on a non-diluted basis) unless the Company receives the permission of the stock exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are then listed to exceed such threshold.

(c) If any Option granted under this Plan shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, any un-purchased Shares to which such Option relates shall be available for the purposes of the granting of Options under this Plan.

  1. Maintenance of Sufficient Capital

The Company shall at all times during the term of this Plan ensure that the number of Shares it is authorized to issue shall be sufficient to satisfy the Company's obligations under all outstanding Options granted pursuant to this Plan.

  1. Eligibility and Participation

(a) The Board may, in its discretion, select any of the following persons to participate in this Plan:

(i) directors of the Company;
(ii) officers of the Company;
(iii) employees of the Company; and
(iv) consultants retained by the Company, provided such consultants have performed and/or continue to perform services for the Company on an ongoing basis or are expected to provide a service of value to the Company;

(any such person having been selected for participation in this Plan by the Board is herein referred to as a "Participant").

(b) The Board may from time to time, in its discretion, grant an Option to any Participant, upon such terms, conditions and limitations as the Board may determine, including the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, provided that Options granted to any Participant shall be approved by the shareholders of the Company if the rules of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed require such approval.

(c) The Company represents that, for any Options granted to an officer, employee or consultant of the Company, such Participant is a bona fide officer, employee or consultant of the Company.


  1. Exercise Price

The Board shall, at the time an Option is granted under this Plan, fix the exercise price at which Shares may be acquired upon the exercise of such Option provided that such exercise price shall not be less than that from time to time permitted under the rules of any stock exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are then listed. In addition, the exercise price of an Option must be paid in cash. Disinterested shareholder approval shall be obtained by the Company prior to any reduction to the exercise price or extension of the term if the affected Participant is an insider (as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) of the Company at the time of the proposed amendment.

  1. Number of Optioned Shares

The number of Shares that may be acquired under an Option granted to a Participant shall be determined by the Board as at the time the Option is granted, provided that the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance to any one Participant under this Plan or any other plan of the Company, shall not exceed five percent of the total number of issued and outstanding Shares (calculated on a non-diluted basis) in any 12 month period unless the Company receives the permission of the stock exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are listed to exceed such threshold and provided further that the number of Options granted to any one consultant in a 12 month period shall not exceed 2% of the total number of issued and outstanding Shares and the aggregate number of Options granted to persons employed to provide investor relations activities shall not exceed 2% of the total number of issued and outstanding Shares in any 12 month period. The Company shall obtain disinterested shareholder approval for grants of Options to insiders (as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange), of a number of Options exceeding 10% of the issued Shares, within any 12-month period and at any point in time.

  1. Term

The period during which an Option may be exercised (the "Option Period") shall be determined by the Board at the time that the Option is granted, subject to any vesting limitations which may be imposed by the Board in its sole unfettered discretion at the time that such Option is granted and Sections 11, 12 and 16 below, provided that:

(a) no Option shall be exercisable for a period exceeding five (5) years from the date that the Option is granted unless the Company receives the permission of the stock exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are then listed and as specifically provided by the Board and as permitted under the rules of any stock exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are then listed, and in any event, no Option shall be exercisable for a period exceeding ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted;

(b) no Option in respect of which shareholder approval is required under the rules of any stock exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are then listed shall be exercisable until such time as the Option has been approved by the shareholders of the Company; and

(c) the Board may, subject to the receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals, in its sole discretion, accelerate the time at which any Option may be exercised, in whole or in part.

  1. Method of Exercise of Option

(a) Except as set forth in Sections 11 and 12 or as otherwise determined by the Board, no Option may be exercised unless the holder of such Option is, at the time the Option is exercised, a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company.


(b) Options that are otherwise exercisable in accordance with the terms thereof may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time.

(c) Any Participant (or his legal, personal representative) wishing to exercise an Option shall deliver to the Company, at its principal office in the City of Toronto, Ontario:

(i) a written notice expressing the intention of such Participant (or his legal, personal representative) to exercise his Option and specifying the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised; and

(ii) a cash payment, certified cheque or bank draft, representing the full purchase price of the Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised.

(d) Upon the exercise of an Option as aforesaid, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to forthwith deliver, or cause the registrar and transfer agent of the Shares to deliver, to the relevant Participant (or his legal, personal representative) or to the order thereof, a certificate representing the aggregate number of fully paid and non-assessable Shares in respect of which the Option has been duly exercised.

11. Ceasing to be a Director, Officer, Employee or Consultant

If any Participant shall cease to hold the position or positions of director, officer, consultant or employee of the Company (as the case may be) for any reason other than death his Option will terminate at 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the earlier of the date of the expiration of the Option Period and 90 days after the date such Participant ceases to hold the position or positions of director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company as the case may be, and ceases to actively perform services for the Company. An Option granted to a Participant who performs investor relations services on behalf of the Company shall terminate on the date of termination of the employment or cessation of services being provided and shall be subject to Exchange policies and procedures for the termination of Options for investor relations services. For greater certainty, the termination of any Options held by the Participant, and the period during which the Participant may exercise any Options, shall be without regard to any notice period arising from the Participant's ceasing to hold the position or positions of director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company (as the case may be).

Neither the selection of any person as a Participant nor the granting of an Option to any Participant under this Plan shall: (i) confer upon such Participant any right to continue as a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company, as the case may be; or (ii) be construed as a guarantee that the Participant will continue as a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company, as the case may be.

12. Death of a Participant

In the event of the death of a Participant, any Option previously granted to him shall be exercisable until the end of the Option Period or until the expiration of 12 months after the date of death of such Participant, whichever is earlier, and then, in the event of death, only:

(a) by the person or persons to whom the Participant's rights under the Option shall pass by the Participant's will or applicable law; and

(b) to the extent that he was entitled to exercise the Option as at the date of his death.


  1. Rights of Participants

No person entitled to exercise any Option granted under this Plan shall have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of the Company in respect of any Shares issuable upon exercise of such Option until such Shares have been paid for in full and issued to such person.

  1. Proceeds from Exercise of Options

The proceeds from any sale of Shares issued upon the exercise of Options shall be added to the general funds of the Company and shall thereafter be used from time to time for such corporate purposes as the Board may determine and direct.

  1. Adjustments

(a) The number of Shares subject to the Plan shall be increased or decreased proportionately in the event of the subdivision or consolidation of the outstanding Shares of the Company, and in any such event a corresponding adjustment shall be made to the number of Shares deliverable upon the exercise of any Option granted prior to such event without any change in the total price applicable to the unexercised portion of the Option, but with a corresponding adjustment in the price for each Share that may be acquired upon the exercise of the Option. In case the Company is reorganized or merged or consolidated or amalgamated with another corporation, appropriate provisions shall be made for the continuance of the Options outstanding under this Plan and to prevent any dilution or enlargement of the same.

(b) Adjustments under this Section 15 shall be made by the Board, whose determination as to what adjustments shall be made, and the extent thereof, shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of an Option following the making of any such adjustment.

  1. Change of Control

Notwithstanding the provisions of section 11 or any vesting restrictions otherwise applicable to the relevant Options, in the event of a sale by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets or in the event of a change of control of the Company, each Participant shall be entitled to exercise, in whole or in part, the Options granted to such Participant hereunder, either during the term of the Option or within 90 days after the date of the sale or change of control, whichever first occurs.

For the purpose of this Plan, "change of control of the Company" means and shall be deemed to have occurred upon:

(a) the acceptance by the holders of Shares of the Company, representing in the aggregate, more than 50 percent of all issued Shares of the Company, of any offer, whether by way of a takeover bid or otherwise, for all or any of the outstanding Shares of the Company; or

(b) the acquisition, by whatever means, by a person (or two or more persons who, in such acquisition, have acted jointly or in concert or intend to exercise jointly or in concert any voting rights attaching to the Shares acquired), directly or indirectly, of beneficial ownership of such number of Shares or rights to Shares of the Company, which together with such person's then owned Shares and rights to Shares, if any, represent (assuming the full exercise of such rights to voting securities) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting rights of the Company's then outstanding Shares; or


(c) the entering into of any agreement by the Company to merge, consolidate, amalgamate, initiate an arrangement or be absorbed by or into another corporation;

(d) the passing of a resolution by the Board or shareholders of the Company to substantially liquidate the assets or wind-up the Company's business or significantly rearrange its affairs in one or more transactions or series of transactions or the commencement of proceedings for such a liquidation, winding-up or re-arrangement (except where such re-arrangement is part of a bona fide reorganization of the Company in circumstances where the business of the Company is continued and where the shareholdings remain substantially the same following the rearrangement); or

(e) individuals who were members of the Board of the Company immediately prior to a meeting of the shareholders of the Company involving a contest for or an item of business relating to the election of directors, not constituting a majority of the Board following such election.

17. Transferability

All benefits, rights and Options accruing to any Participant in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Plan shall be non-transferable and non-assignable unless specifically provided herein. During the lifetime of a Participant, any Options granted hereunder may only be exercised by the Participant and in the event of the death of a Participant, by the person or persons to whom the Participant's rights under the Option pass by the Participant's will or applicable law.

18. Amendment and Termination of Plan

The Board may, at any time, suspend or terminate this Plan. The Board may also, at any time, amend or revise the terms of this Plan, subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, provided that no such amendment or revision shall alter the terms of any Options thereto granted under this Plan.

19. Necessary Approvals

The obligation of the Company to issue and deliver Shares in accordance with this Plan and Options granted hereunder is subject to applicable securities legislation and to the receipt of any approvals that may be required from any regulatory authority or stock exchange having jurisdiction over the securities of the Company. If Shares cannot be issued to a Participant upon the exercise of an Option for any reason whatsoever, the obligation of the Company to issue such Shares shall terminate and any funds paid to the Company in connection with the exercise of such Option will be returned to the relevant Participant as soon as practicable.

20. Stock Exchange Rules

This Plan and any option agreements entered into hereunder shall comply with the requirements from time to time of the stock exchange or exchanges on which the Shares are listed.

21. Right to Issue Other Shares

The Company shall not by virtue of this Plan be in any way restricted from declaring and paying stock dividends, issuing further Shares, varying or amending its share capital or corporate structure or conducting its business in any way whatsoever.


  1. Notice

Any notice required to be given by this Plan shall be in writing and shall be given by registered mail, postage prepaid or delivered by courier or by facsimile transmission addressed, if to the Company, at its principal address in Toronto, Ontario (Attention: The Chairman); or if to a Participant, to such Participant at his address as it appears on the books of the Company or in the event of the address of any such Participant not so appearing then to the last known address of such Participant; or if to any other person, to the last known address of such person.
