If the Arrangement is not completed within one year following the closing of the Concurrent Financing, the Gross Proceeds of the Concurrent Financing, less any Partial Proceeds previously released from escrow, together with any accrued interest or other income earned thereon will be returned, on a pro rata basis, to the purchasers of GSV Unit Subscription Receipts and the GSV Unit Subscription Receipts will be cancelled.

Each Party shall promptly send a letter to all Persons who have entered into confidentiality agreements with such Party in connection with a proposed Alternative Transaction within the six month period prior to the date hereof, requiring all materials provided to such Persons to be destroyed or returned to the Party or its agents or advisors.

7.2	No Solicitation

Each Party will not, and will not authorize or permit any of its Representatives to directly or indirectly:

(i)

solicit, initiate or encourage or engage in any discussions or negotiations or participate in or take any other action in respect of, or which may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Alternative Transaction in respect of such Party;

(ii)

provide or furnish to any Person any information concerning such Party and its business, properties, and assets in respect of, or which may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Alternative Transaction in respect of such Party;

accept, recommend, approve or enter into any agreement to implement an Alternative Transaction in respect of such Party; or

(iv)

release any Person from any confidentiality or standstill agreement between such Party and such Person or amend any such agreement.

Each Party shall ensure that its respective Representatives are aware of the provisions of this Section 7.2 and each Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 7.2 by its respective Representatives.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if a Party lawfully terminates this Agreement pursuant to section 8.2, the no solicitation provisions of this section 7.2 shall be terminated and each Party shall immediately be permitted to pursue an Alternative Transaction.

7.3	Superior Offer

Notwithstanding Section 7.2 hereof, a Party shall not be restricted from considering, discussing, negotiating, or providing any information (including access to management) to a third party in respect of a bona fide unsolicited proposal to a Party or its shareholders that the board of directors of such Party, upon consultation with its financial and legal advisors, determines, in good faith, to be a Superior Offer and required to be considered by it in order to discharge its fiduciary duties. A Party shall provide to the other Party a copy of any Superior Offer proposal and will provide such other Party written notice of intent to recommend, accept or enter into an agreement with respect to such Superior Offer proposal not less than two Business Days before any recommendation, acceptance or entry into such an agreement, at which time this Arrangement Agreement shall terminate.

7.4	Right to Match

(a)

Either Party (the “Terminating Party”) or the directors thereof may, in respect of any Alternative Transaction, accept, approve or recommend, and/or enter into any agreement to effect an Alternative Transaction (the Party hereto other than the Terminating Party hereinafter referred to as the “Non-Terminating Party”) if:

(i)

such Alternative Transaction constitutes a Superior Offer;

(ii)

the Non-Terminating Party has been provided with a copy of the document containing such Superior Offer (with such deletions as are necessary to protect any confidential portions of such document, provided that material terms and conditions of, and the identity of the person making, such Superior Offer may not be deleted);

(iii)

five Business Days have elapsed from the date on which the Non-Terminating Party received notice of the determination of the Terminating Party to accept, approve or recommend or to enter into an agreement in respect of such Superior Offer (the “Notice of Superior Offer”) and the Non-Terminating Party has not, within such five Business Day period, agreed to amend this Agreement so that the consideration hereunder will at least match such Superior Offer, as determined by the directors of the Terminating Party in good faith; and

(iv)

if the Non-Terminating Party has elected not to match the Superior Offer, the Terminating Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof and makes the payment contemplated by, and in accordance with, Section 8.4 hereof.

In the event that the Terminating Party provides the Non-Terminating Party with a Notice of Superior Offer on a date that is less than five Business Days prior to the Meetings, the Parties shall adjourn the Meetings to a date that is not less than seven Business Days and not more than 30 Business Days after the Notice of Superior Offer.

(b)

During the five Business Day period referred to in Section 7.4(a), the Terminating Party agrees that the Non-Terminating Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to offer to amend the terms of this Agreement. The board of directors of the Terminating Party will review any proposal by the Non-Terminating Party to amend the terms of this Agreement in good faith in order to determine, in its discretion in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, whether the Non-Terminating Party’s amended proposal upon acceptance by the Terminating Party would result in such Superior Offer ceasing to be a Superior Offer. If the board of directors of the Terminating Party so determines, it will enter into an amendment agreement to this Agreement with the Non-Terminating Party reflecting the Non-Terminating Party’s amended proposal. If the board of directors of the Terminating Party continues to believe, in good faith and after consultation with financial advisors and outside counsel, that such Superior Offer remains a Superior Offer and therefore rejects the Non-Terminating Party’s amended proposal, the Terminating Party may, on termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.2 and payment of the Break Fee as required pursuant to Section 8.4, accept, approve, recommend or enter into an agreement, understanding or arrangement in respect of such Superior Offer.

Each successive material modification of any Superior Offer shall constitute a new Superior Offer for purposes of Section 7.4 and the requirement under Section 7.4(a) to initiate an additional five Business Day notice period.

either Party, upon any other circumstances hereunder that give rise to a termination of this Agreement by such Party, including as set forth in Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3.

Subject to section 8.3, upon termination of this Agreement, the Parties shall have no further obligations hereunder, except as stated in section 5.6 and 8.4, which shall survive such termination.

8.3

Remedies

Except as provided in Section 8.4, the Parties acknowledge and agree that damages may apply for any breach of this Agreement by any Party or its Representatives and any such breach may cause the non-breaching Party irreparable harm. Accordingly the Parties agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by one of the Parties, the non-breaching Party will also be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance. Such remedies will not be the exclusive remedies for any breach of this Agreement, but will be in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity to each of the Parties.

8.4

Break Fee

If this Agreement is terminated by a Party (in this section, a “Terminating Party”) pursuant to Section 8.2(d), the Terminating Party shall pay to the other Party, within five Business Day of notice of termination, a break-fee of $150,000 (the “Break Fee”) as an agreed amount of liquidated damages to properly compensate the other Party for its expenses and management time in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, that would be lost due to the termination of this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Break Fee represents a genuine pre-estimate of the damages which the other will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to those damages and is not a penalty and that such fee is the sole monetary remedy as a result of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2(d). Each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to raise as a defence in any proceedings that any such damages are abusive.
