2.2

Terms of Warrants

Subject as hereinafter provided in this Indenture, each Warrant will entitle its holder, upon exercise in accordance with this Indenture, to purchase one Warrant Share at any time during the Warrant Exercise Period at the Exercise Price subject to the provisions hereof.  The Warrants are non-transferrable.

2.3

Form of Warrants

The Warrants will be evidenced by Warrant Certificates, with such additions, variations or omissions as may be permitted by the provisions of this Indenture or as may from time to time be agreed upon between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent and will be numbered in such manner as the Corporation with the approval of the Warrant Agent may prescribe, and will bear such legends as may be required under the Applicable Securities Laws.

2.4

Warrant Certificates

(a)

Warrant Certificates to be issued and delivered from time to time under this Indenture will be executed by the Corporation and certified by the Warrant Agent to or upon the written order of the Corporation, without the Warrant Agent receiving any consideration for such certification.

(b)

If, at the time of issue of any of the Warrants, there are restrictions on resale under applicable securities legislation on such Warrants, the Corporation may, on the advice of counsel, endorse the Warrant Certificates with respect to those restrictions.

(c)

If the Warrant Agent has any queries with respect to legending procedures on the Warrant Certificates or certificates representing Warrant Shares, the Warrant Agent will be entitled to seek written direction from the Corporation or its legal counsel, which direction shall be determinative.

(d)

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Warrant Agent will not be responsible for ensuring compliance by the Warrantholders with Applicable Securities Laws or the laws of any other jurisdiction. The Warrant Agent shall be entitled to process all exercises of Warrants upon the presumption that such exercises are permissible pursuant to Applicable Securities Laws and regulatory requirements and the terms of this Indenture and the related Warrant Certificates.  

- 7 -

---

(e)

The Warrant Agent may assume for the purposes of this Indenture that the address on the register of Warrantholders of any Warrantholder is the actual address of such Warrantholder and is also determinative of the residence of such Warrantholder.

2.5

Issue in Substitution for Warrants

If a Warrant Certificate becomes mutilated or is lost, destroyed or stolen (the "Old Certificate"), the Corporation, subject to Section 2.6, will issue and thereupon the Warrant Agent will countersign or certify and deliver a new certificate (the "New Certificate") in exchange for and in place of and on surrender and cancellation of the Old Certificate if it has been mutilated, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Old Certificate if it has been lost, destroyed or stolen, and the New Certificate will entitle the holder thereof to the same rights and benefits and will bear the same legends (if any) as the Old Certificate.

2.6

Conditions for Replacement of Warrants

The applicant for the issuance of a New Certificate pursuant to Section 2.5 will bear the cost of the issuance thereof and in case of loss, destruction or theft will, as a condition precedent to the issue thereof:

(i)

furnish to the Corporation and to the Warrant Agent such evidence of ownership and of the loss, destruction or theft of the Old Certificate as is requested by and satisfactory to the Corporation and the Warrant Agent, acting reasonably;

(ii)

if so required, furnish an indemnity and surety bond or such security in amount and form as is satisfactory to the Corporation and to the Warrant Agent, acting reasonably; and

(iii)

pay the reasonable charges of the Corporation and the Warrant Agent, in connection with the cancellation of the Old Certificate and the issuance of the New Certificate as replacement therefor.

2.7

Warrantholder not a Shareholder

Nothing in this Indenture or in the ownership of a Warrant evidenced by a Warrant Certificate, or otherwise, will be construed as conferring on a Warrantholder any right or interest whatsoever as a shareholder of the Corporation, including but not limited to any right to receive notice of, to attend, or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any other proceeding of the Corporation or any right to receive any dividend or other distribution.

2.8

Warrants to Rank Pari Passu

Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, each Warrant will rank pari passu with all other Warrants, whatever may be the actual date of issuance thereof.

2.9

Execution of Warrants

Warrant Certificates will be signed by any one Director or officer of the Corporation.  The signature of such Director or officer may be mechanically reproduced and Warrant Certificates bearing such mechanically reproduced signatures will be binding upon the Corporation as if they had been manually signed by the Director or officer.  Notwithstanding that any of the persons whose manual or mechanically reproduced signature appears on any Warrant Certificates as Director or officer may no longer, prior to the certification and delivery of the Warrant Certificate, hold the official capacity in which he signed, any Warrant Certificate signed as aforesaid will be valid and binding upon the Corporation when the Warrant Certificate has been certified by the Warrant Agent in accordance with Section 2.10.

- 8 -

---

 

2.10

Certification by the Warrant Agent

No Warrant Certificate will be issued, or if issued, will be valid or entitle the holder to the benefit of this Indenture until it has been certified by the Warrant Agent by being countersigned by or on behalf of the Warrant Agent and the Warrant Agent's countersignature upon any Warrant Certificate will be conclusive evidence as against the Corporation that the Warrant Certificate so countersigned has been duly issued under this Indenture and is a valid obligation of the Corporation, and that the holder is entitled to the benefit of this Indenture.

2.11

Effect of Certification

The countersigning by or on behalf of the Warrant Agent of any Warrant Certificate issued under this Indenture will not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Warrant Agent as to the validity of this Indenture or of the Warrants represented by such Warrant Certificate and the Warrant Agent will in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of any Warrant Certificate or of the consideration therefor, except as otherwise specified in this Indenture.  The countersignature of or on behalf of the Warrant Agent will, however, be a representation and warranty by the Warrant Agent that the Warrant Certificate has been duly countersigned by or on behalf of the Warrant Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture.

ARTICLE 3
APPOINTMENT OF WARRANT AGENT AS REGISTRAR

3.1

Registration of Warrants

(b)

The Corporation shall cause a register to be kept by the Warrant Agent at its principal transfer office in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia and in such other place or places and by such other agent as the Corporation with the approval of the Warrant Agent may designate, in which shall be entered the names and addresses of the holders of Warrants and other particulars of the Warrants held by them respectively.

Except in the case of the register required to be kept at the City of Vancouver, British Columbia, the Corporation by agreement shall have the power to close any branch register at any time.

(f)

The registrar shall, when requested to do so by the Corporation, furnish the Corporation with a list of names and addresses of the Warrantholders showing the number of Warrants held by each Warrantholder.

ARTICLE 4
EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

4.1

Method of Exercise of Warrants

Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 4, a Warrantholder may, during the Warrant Exercise Period, exercise the right of purchase under a Warrant Certificate, as provided in this Indenture, by surrendering the Warrant Certificate to the Warrant Agent at its principal transfer office in the City of Vancouver during normal business hours on a Business Day, together with a fully completed and duly executed exercise form (in the form attached to, or imprinted upon, the Warrant Certificate), and the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares subscribed for, applicable at the time of the surrender calculated in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Indenture, no Warrantholder may exercise any Warrant at any time when no Registration Statement is effective, unless an exemption from the registration requirements to the U.S. Securities Act is available and such holder provides evidence of the availability of such exemption satisfactory to the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. If no Registration Statement is effective, such Warrantholder shall be notified forthwith by the Warrant Agent that such Warrantholder is entitled, at the sole option of the Corporation, to a cashless exercise of his or her Warrant, in whole or in part, in accordance with Section 4.12.

4.2

Payment of Exercise Price

The Exercise Price for Warrant Shares subscribed for under Warrants will be paid by certified cheque, bank draft or money order payable to or to the order of the Corporation or to the Warrant Agent at par in the city where the Warrant Certificate is surrendered.

4.3

Effect of Exercise of Warrants

Subject to Section 4.4, on exercise of a Warrant, the Corporation will cause to be issued to the person or persons in whose name the Warrant Shares so subscribed for are to be issued as specified in the exercise form, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to such person or persons and such person or persons will become a shareholder or shareholders of the Corporation in respect of those Warrant Shares with effect from the date on which both (i) the Warrant is exercised and (ii) the Exercise Price therefor has been paid, and will be entitled to delivery of a certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares and the Corporation will cause the certificate or certificates to be mailed to such person or persons at the address or addresses specified in the exercise form within three Business Days of the date on which the Warrant is exercised and the name of such person or persons shall be entered in the register of members of the Corporation in respect of such Warrant Shares.

- 10 -

---

 

4.4

Delivery of Share Certificates and Warrant Certificates

Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Indenture to the contrary, the Corporation will not be required to deliver certificates for Warrant Shares in any period during which the register of members of the Corporation is closed prior to any meeting of shareholders or for the payment of dividends or for any other purpose and, in the event of the exercise of any Warrant during any such period, delivery of certificates for Warrant Shares may be postponed for a period not exceeding three Business Days after the date of the reopening of the share transfer books.

4.5

Completion of Exercise Form

Every exercise form will be signed by the Warrantholder who desires to exercise in whole or in part the right of purchase therein provided for, will specify the number of Warrant Shares that the Warrantholder wishes to purchase (being not more than he is entitled to purchase), the person or persons in whose name or names the Warrant Shares are to be issued and his or their address or addresses and the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to each such person, if more than one is so specified.

4.6

Payment of Applicable Taxes and Charges

If any Warrant Shares subscribed for are to be issued to a person or persons other than the Warrantholder, the Warrantholder must pay to the Corporation or to the Warrant Agent on its behalf an amount equal to all applicable transfer taxes or other government charges, and the Corporation will not be required to issue or deliver any certificate evidencing any Warrant Shares unless or until that amount has been so paid or the Warrantholder has established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that the taxes and charges have been paid or that no taxes or charges are owing.

4.7

Partial Exercise of Warrant

A Warrantholder may subscribe for and purchase any lesser number of Warrant Shares than the number of Warrant Shares to which such holder is entitled upon the exercise of Warrants, in which case the Warrantholder will be entitled to receive a new Warrant Certificate in respect of the Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrant Certificate and not then subscribed for and purchased, and the Warrant Agent will issue a new Warrant Certificate upon surrender of the Warrant Certificate, if satisfied that the new Warrant Certificate is properly issuable.

4.8

Expiration of Warrants

No holder of any Warrant or any other person shall have any rights, under or by virtue of such Warrant or this Indenture, to subscribe for or purchase any Warrant Shares at any time subsequent to the Warrant Exercise Period.  Following the Warrant Exercise Period, all rights under this Indenture and/or under any of the Warrants in respect of which the right of subscription and purchase has not been exercised shall wholly cease and terminate and the remaining outstanding Warrants shall be void and of no value or effect.

- 11 -

---

4.9

Surrender of Warrant Certificate

Surrender of a Warrant Certificate and the exercise form and payment of the Exercise Price will be deemed to have been effected only on personal delivery thereof to, or if sent by mail or other means of transmission, on actual receipt thereof by, the Warrant Agent at one of the offices specified in Section 4.1.

4.10

Cancellation of Surrendered Warrants

All Warrants exercised as provided in Section 4.1 or partially exercised as provided in Section 4.7 will be cancelled and destroyed by the Warrant Agent and, if required by the Corporation, the Warrant Agent will furnish the Corporation with a certificate as to the destruction.

4.11  Securities Restrictions

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Indenture, no Warrant Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant if the issuance of such Warrant Shares would constitute a violation of the Applicable Securities Laws, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Corporation will legend the certificates representing the Warrant Shares if, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation such legend is necessary in order to avoid a violation of the Applicable Securities Laws or to comply with the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Warrant Shares are listed, provided that if, at any time, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, acting reasonably, such legends are no longer necessary in order to avoid a violation of any such laws, or the holder of any such legended certificate, at his expense, provides the Corporation with evidence satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation (which may include an opinion of Counsel of recognized standing satisfactory to the Corporation) to the effect that such holder is entitled to sell or otherwise transfer such Warrant Shares in a transaction in which such legends are not required, such legended certificates may thereafter be surrendered to the Warrant Agent in exchange for a certificate which does not bear such legends.

The Warrant Agent shall be entitled to assume that Warrant Shares may be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant without violating any Applicable Securities Laws and without legending the certificate representing the Warrant Shares unless the Warrant Agent has received notice in writing from the Corporation stating otherwise and setting forth the restrictions on the exercise of the Warrants and any legend the certificates representing the Warrant Shares should contain.

For greater certainty, should no Registration Statement be effective, the Corporation shall permit the cashless exercise of the Warrants held by Warrantholders as set forth in Section 4.12 and shall not be permitted to issue legended Warrant Shares in lieu thereof.

4.12

Cashless Exercise

If the Registration Statement ceases to be effective, prior to the Time of Expiry and for so long as the Registration Statement is not effective, subject to applicable law, any holder of any Warrant may provide the Warrant Agent with a notice of intent to exercise such Warrant by surrendering the certificate representing such Warrant at any time during such period along with a duly completed and executed exercise form (in the form attached hereto) to the Warrant Agent.  At such time of the receipt of the duly completed and executed exercise form, the Warrant Agent shall inform the Corporation of the Warrantholder’s intent to exercise along with a notice setting out the particulars of the Warrants to be exercised and the name and address of the Warrantholder.  As soon as practicable following receipt of such notice from the Warrant Agent, the Corporation will deliver to the Warrant Agent an officer's certificate certifying the Current Market Price on the trading day immediately preceding the cashless exercise and the number of Warrant Shares to be issued pursuant to the cashless exercise, which shall be equal to the number of Warrant Shares which would, but for such cashless exercise, have been issuable ("Total Share Number") less the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the product of the Total Share Number and Exercise Price by (b) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the trading day immediately preceding the cashless exercise.  The Warrant Agent shall issue certificates representing the Warrant Shares issuable pursuant to the cashless exercise to the Warrantholder as soon as practicable thereafter.

- 12 -

---

 

If the Warrantholder exercises the right provided for in this Section 4.12 in respect of a lesser number of Warrants than the aggregate number of Warrants represented by the Warrant Certificate surrendered, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive a further Warrant Certificate in respect of the Warrants represented by the Warrant Certificates that have not been part of a cashless exercise.

ARTICLE 5
ADJUSTMENT OF EXCHANGE BASIS

5.1

Adjustment of Exchange Basis

Subject to Section 5.2, the Exchange Basis shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided in this Section 5.1.  In this Section 5.1, the terms "record date" and "effective date" where used herein shall mean the close of business on the relevant date.

(a)

If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall:

(i)

issue Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares to all or substantially all the holders of the Common Shares as a stock dividend or other distribution payable in Common Shares or Convertible Securities (other than as dividends in the ordinary course);

(ii)

subdivide, redivide or change its then outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares; or

(iii)

reduce, combine or consolidate its then outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of shares,

(any of such events in these clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) being called a "Common Share Reorganization"), then the Exchange Basis in effect on the effective date of such subdivision or consolidation, or on the record date of such stock dividend or other distribution, as the case may be, shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exchange Basis in effect immediately prior to such effective or record date by a fraction: (i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such date immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such record date, assuming in any case where such securities are not then convertible or exchangeable but subsequently become so, that they were convertible or exchangeable on the record date on the basis upon which they first become convertible or exchangeable), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization.  The resulting product, adjusted to the nearest 1/100th, shall thereafter be the Exchange Basis until further adjusted as provided in this Article 5.

(b)

Subject to Section 5.2, if and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation fixes a record date for the distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares of rights, options or warrants entitling them for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date (the "Rights Period"), to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, at a price per share to the holder (or at an exchange or conversion price per share) of less than 95% of the Current Market Price for the Common Shares on such record date (any of such events being called a "Rights Offering"), then the Exchange Basis shall be adjusted effective immediately after such record date for the Rights Offering by multiplying the Exchange Basis in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction:

(i)

the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares which would be outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering (assuming the exercise of all of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and assuming the exchange or conversion into Common Shares of all exchangeable or convertible securities issued upon exercise of such rights, warrants or options, if any), and

(ii)

the denominator of which shall be the aggregate of:

(A)

the total number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering, and

(B)

a number of Common Shares arrived at by dividing

I.

the amount equal to the aggregate consideration payable on the exercise of all of the rights, warrants and options under the Rights Offering plus the aggregate consideration, if any, payable on the exchange or conversion of the exchangeable or convertible securities issued upon exercise of such rights, warrants or options (assuming the exercise of all rights, warrants and options under the Rights Offering and assuming the exchange or conversion of all exchangeable or convertible securities issued upon exercise of such rights, warrants and options);

by

II.

the Current Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering.

The resulting product, adjusted to the nearest 1/100th, shall thereafter be the Exchange Basis until further adjusted in accordance with this Article 5.  Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or a partnership in which the Corporation is directly or indirectly a party will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any computation.  If, at the date of expiry of the rights, options or warrants subject to the Rights Offering, less than all the rights, options or warrants have been exercised, then the Exchange Basis shall be readjusted effective immediately after the date of expiry to the Exchange Basis which would have been in effect on the date of expiry if only the rights, options or warrants issued had been those exercised.  If at the date of expiry of the rights of exchange or conversion of any securities issued pursuant to the Rights Offering less than all of such securities have been exchanged or converted into Common Shares, then the Exchange Basis shall be readjusted effective immediately after the date of expiry to the Exchange Basis which would have been in effect on the date of expiry if only the exchangeable or convertible securities issued had been those securities actually exchanged for or converted into Common Shares.

(c)

If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall fix a record date or a record date occurs for the issue or distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of:

(i)

shares of the Corporation of any class other than Common Shares; or

(ii)

rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares; or

(iii)

evidences of indebtedness; or

(iv)

cash, securities or any property or other assets,  

and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute dividends in the ordinary course, a Common Share Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a "Special Distribution"), the Exchange Basis shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date for the Special Distribution by multiplying the Exchange Basis in effect on such record date by a fraction:

(A)

the numerator of which shall be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date and the Current Market Price thereof on that date, and

- 15 -

---

(B)

the denominator of which shall be:

I.

the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date, less

II.

the aggregate fair market value to the holders of the Common Shares, as determined by action by the Directors acting reasonably and in good faith (whose determination shall be conclusive), of the shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or property or other assets issued or distributed in the Special Distribution,

provided that no such adjustment shall be made if the result of such adjustment would be to decrease the Exchange Basis in effect immediately before such record date.  The resulting product, adjusted to the nearest 1/100th, shall thereafter be the Exchange Basis until further adjusted as provided in this Article 5. Any shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or its subsidiaries or affiliates or a partnership of which the Corporation is directly or indirectly a party shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation.

(d)

If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry there shall be

(i)

a reclassification or redesignation of Common Shares at any time outstanding; or

(ii)

a change of the Common Shares into other shares or into other securities (other than a Common Share Reorganization); or

(iii)

a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares, a change of the Common Shares into other shares or an exchange of the Common Shares for other securities (including, without limitation, the securities of another entity)); or

(iv)

a transfer (other than to a subsidiary) of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity.

(any of such events being herein called a "Capital Reorganization"), any Warrantholder who after the completion of the Capital Reorganization shall exercise his right to receive Common Shares pursuant to Warrant(s) shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property resulting from the Capital Reorganization which such holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date or record date thereof, as the case may be, the Warrantholder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon exercise.  If appropriate, adjustments shall be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Article 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Warrantholders to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 5 shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant.  Any such adjustment shall be approved by the Directors, acting reasonably and in good faith, and on the advice of counsel, shall for all purposes be deemed to be an appropriate adjustment, and shall be set forth in an indenture supplemental hereto entered into by the Corporation and the Warrant Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture.

- 16 -

(e)

Forthwith upon the occurrence of any of the events referred to in the preceding subsections above, the Corporation shall:

(i)

file with the Warrant Agent a certificate of the Corporation specifying the required adjustment; and

(ii)

give notice to the Warrantholders of the required adjustment.

(f)

Any adjustment to the Exchange Basis as set forth herein shall also include a corresponding adjustment to the Exercise Price which shall be calculated by multiplying the Exercise Price by a fraction: (i) the numerator of which shall be the Exchange Basis prior to the adjustment, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the Exchange Basis after the adjustment.

5.2

Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Exchange Basis

For the purposes of Section 5.1:

(a)

The adjustments provided for in Section 5.1 shall be cumulative and such adjustments shall be made successively whenever an event referred to in Section 5.1 shall occur, subject to the following subsections of this Section 5.2.

(b)

If the purchase price provided for in any Rights Offering (the "Rights Offering Price") is decreased, the Exchange Basis shall forthwith be changed so as to increase the Exchange Basis to such Exchange Basis as would have been obtained had the adjustment to the Exchange Basis made pursuant to Subsection 5.1(b) upon the issuance of such Rights Offering been made upon the basis of the Rights Offering Price as so decreased, provided that the provisions of this Subsection shall not apply to any decrease in the Rights Offering Price resulting from provisions in any such Rights Offering designed to prevent dilution if the event giving rise to such decrease in the Rights Offering Price itself requires an adjustment to the Exchange Basis pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.1.

(c)

No adjustment in the Exchange Basis shall be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 0.01 of a Common Share based on the prevailing Exchange Basis provided that, any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection would otherwise have been required to be made, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

- 17 -

---

 

(d)

No adjustment in the Exchange Basis shall be made in respect of any event described in Section 5.1, other than the events referred to in paragraphs (ii) and (iii) of Subsection (a) thereof, if Warrantholders are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if Warrantholders had exercised their Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event, any such participation is subject to approval of the regulatory approval (including, without limitation, Exchange and NYSE Amex approval).

(e)

No adjustment in the Exchange Basis shall be made pursuant to Section 5.1 in respect of the issue from time to time of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of the Warrants or in respect of the issue from time to time of dividends in the ordinary course of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares who exercise an option or election to receive substantially equivalent dividends in Common Shares in lieu of receiving a cash dividend, and any such issue shall be deemed not to be a Common Share Reorganization.

(f)

If a dispute shall at any time arise with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 5.1, such dispute shall, absent manifest error, be conclusively determined by the Corporation’s Auditors, or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by the Directors and any further determination, absent manifest error, shall be binding upon the Corporation, the Warrant Agent and the Warrantholders.  The Corporation shall ensure the Corporation’s Auditors are given full access to all necessary records as they may require.

(g)

If the Corporation shall set a record date to determine the holders of the Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or any subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend, distribution, or subscription or purchase rights, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, or subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment in the Exchange Basis shall be required by reason of the setting of such record date.

(h)

In the absence of a resolution of the Directors fixing a record date for a Rights Offering or Special Distribution, the Corporation shall be deemed to have fixed as the record date therefor the date on which the Rights Offering or Special Distribution is effected.

(i)

As a condition precedent to the taking of any action that would require any adjustment in any of the subscription rights pursuant to any of the Warrants, including the Exchange Basis, the Corporation (or, in the event of a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity in respect of which the Shares are exchanged for other securities, that other corporation or entity) shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of counsel, be necessary in order that the Corporation have unissued and reserved in its authorized capital and may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all the shares or other securities that all the holders of such Warrants are entitled to receive on the exercise of all the subscription rights attaching thereto in accordance with the provisions thereof.

- 18 -

---

 

(j)

In case the Corporation, after the date hereof, shall take any action affecting any Common Shares, other than action described in Section 5.1, which in the opinion of the Directors acting reasonably and in good faith would materially affect the rights of Warrantholders, the Exchange Basis shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the Directors, in their sole discretion acting in good faith, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances.  Failure of the taking of action by the Directors so as to provide for an adjustment in the Exchange Basis prior to the effective date of any action by the Corporation affecting the Common Shares shall be conclusive evidence that the Directors have determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.

(k)

The Warrant Agent shall be entitled to act and rely on any adjustment calculations by the Corporation or the Corporation’s Auditors.

5.3

Postponement of Subscription

In any case where the application of Section 5.1 results in an increase in the number of Warrant Shares that are issuable upon exercise of the Warrants taking effect immediately after the record date for a specific event, if any Warrant is exercised after that record date and prior to completion of such specific event for which a calculation is required to be made, the Corporation may postpone the issuance to Warrantholder of the Warrant Shares to which the holder is entitled by reason of such adjustment but such Warrant Shares shall be so issued and delivered to that holder upon completion of that event, with the number of such Warrant Shares calculated on the basis of the number of Common Shares on the date that the Warrant was exercised adjusted for completion of that event and the Corporation shall deliver to the person or persons in whose name or names the Warrant Shares are to be issued an appropriate instrument evidencing the right of such person or persons to receive such Warrant Shares and the right to receive any dividends or other distributions which, but for the provisions of this section, such person or persons would  have been entitled to receive in respect of such Warrant Shares from and after the date that the Warrant was exercised in respect thereof.

5.4

Notice of Adjustment

(a)

At least 14 days prior to the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of any event which requires or might require adjustment of the Exchange Basis pursuant to Section 5.1, the Corporation shall:

(i)

file with the Warrant Agent a certificate of the Corporation specifying the particulars of such event (including the record date or the effective date for such event) and, if determinable, the required adjustment and the computation of such adjustment; and

(ii)

give notice to the Warrantholders of the particulars of such event (including the record date or the effective date for such event) and, if determinable, the required adjustment.

- 19 -

(b)

In case any adjustment for which a notice in Subsection 5.4(a) has been given is not then determinable, the Corporation shall promptly after such adjustment is determinable:

(i)

(ii)

give notice to the Warrantholders of the adjustment.

(c)

The Warrant Agent may act and rely upon certificates and other documents filed by the Corporation pursuant to this section for all purposes of the adjustment.

5.5

No Action after Notice

The Corporation covenants with the Warrant Agent that it will not take any other corporate action which might deprive a Warrantholder of the opportunity of exercising the rights of acquisition pursuant thereto during the period of 14 days after the giving of the notice set forth in paragraph (ii) of Subsections 5.4(a) and(b).

5.6

No Fractional Common Shares

Under no circumstances will the Corporation be obliged to issue any fractional Warrant Shares upon the exercise of one or more Warrants.  To the extent that the holder of one or more Warrants would otherwise have been entitled to receive on the exercise or partial exercise thereof a fraction of a Warrant Share, that holder may exercise that right in respect of the fraction only in combination with another Warrant or Warrants that in the aggregate entitle the holder to acquire a whole number of Warrant Shares.  If not so exercised, the Corporation will not pay any cash or other consideration to the Warrantholder in lieu of the right to receive a fraction of a Warrant Share.

to amend, alter or repeal any Special Resolution previously passed or consented to by Warrantholders.

9.14

Meaning of "Special Resolution"

(a)

The expression "Special Resolution" when used in this Indenture means, subject as provided in this Section 9.14, a resolution proposed at a meeting of the Warrantholders duly convened for that purpose and held in accordance with the provisions of this Article 9 at which there are present in person or represented by proxy Warrantholders holding or representing at least 10% of the aggregate number of Warrants then outstanding and passed by the affirmative votes of Warrantholders holding not less than two-thirds of the aggregate number of Warrants represented at the meeting and voted on the poll upon the resolution.

(b)

If, at any meeting called for the purpose of passing a Special Resolution, Warrantholders holding at least 10% of the aggregate number of Warrants then outstanding are not present in person or represented by proxy within half an hour after the time appointed for the meeting, then the meeting, if convened by Warrantholders, will be dissolved; but in any other case it will stand adjourned to such day, being not less than 15 or more than 60 days later, and to such place and time as may be appointed by the chairman.  Not less than 10 days' notice will be given of the time and place of the adjourned meeting in the manner provided in Section 12.2.  The notice will state that at the adjourned meeting the Warrantholders present in person or by proxy will form a quorum but it will not be necessary to set forth the purposes for which the meeting was originally called or any other particulars. At the adjourned meeting the Warrantholders present in person or by proxy will form a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened and a resolution proposed at the adjourned meeting and passed by the requisite vote as provided in Subsection 9.14(a) will be a Special Resolution within the meaning of this Indenture notwithstanding that Warrantholders holding at least 10% of the aggregate number of Warrants then outstanding are not present in person or by proxy at the adjourned meeting.

(c)

Votes on a Special Resolution will always be given on a poll and no demand for a poll on a Special Resolution will be necessary.

(d)

All actions that may be taken and all powers that may be exercised by the Warrantholders at a meeting held as provided above in this Article 9 may also be taken and exercised by Warrantholders holding at least two-thirds of the aggregate number of Warrants then outstanding by an instrument in writing signed in one or more counterparts by Warrantholders in person or by attorney duly appointed in writing and the expression "Special Resolution" when used in this Indenture will include an instrument so signed.

9.15

Powers Cumulative

Any one or more of the powers or combination of the powers in this Indenture exercisable by the Warrantholders by Special Resolution or otherwise may be exercised from time to time and the exercise of any one or more of the powers or any combination of powers from time to time will not be deemed to exhaust the rights of the Warrantholders to exercise the same or any other power or powers or combination of powers then or any power or powers or combinations of powers thereafter.

9.16

Minutes

Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting of Warrantholders will be made and duly entered in books to be provided for that purpose by the Warrant Agent at the expense of the Corporation, and any minutes if purporting to be signed by the chairman of the meeting or by the chairman of the next succeeding meeting of Warrantholders, will be prima facie evidence of the matters therein stated and, until the contrary is proved, every meeting for which minutes have been made, will be deemed to have been duly convened and held and all resolutions passed or proceedings taken at such meeting, to have been duly passed and taken.

9.17

Binding Effect of Resolutions

Every resolution and every Special Resolution duly passed at a meeting of the Warrantholders duly convened and held or any consent in writing having the effect of a Special Resolution will be binding upon all the Warrantholders (including their successors and assigns) whether or not present or represented and voting at the meeting or signatories to the consent, as the case may be, and each of the Warrantholders and the Warrant Agent, subject to the provisions for its indemnity contained in this Indenture, will be bound to give effect thereto.
