ARTICLE II - OPTIONS

Section 2.1: Shares Available. The Board of Directors may from time to time
grant and may delegate to the Compensation Committee authority to grant, in
accordance with this Plan, Options to purchase Shares provided that the number
of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan shall not exceed 10,300,000
Shares (but subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof). The
Compensation Committee may from time to time delegate to the Chief Executive
Officer of the Corporation the authority to allocate Options among
non-management employees within such terms of reference and scope as are
determined by the Compensation Committee.

Section 2.2: Option Price. The price (expressed either in the currency of Canada
or of the United States of America, as may be determined by the Board of
Directors or the Compensation Committee) at which Shares may be purchased under
any Option granted pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Board of
Directors on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee or by the
Compensation Committee (if so authorized by the Board of Directors), provided
that the price per Share shall in no circumstances be less than the closing sale
price of the Shares on The Toronto Stock Exchange (or on any other Stock
Exchange on which the Corporation’s Shares are then listed) on the last trading
day prior to the effective date of grant of such Option and if there is no such
closing price, then the price per Share shall be not less than the simple
average of the closing bid and ask prices on The Toronto Stock Exchange (or on
any other Stock Exchange on which the Corporation’s Shares are then listed) of
the Shares on the last trading day prior to the effective date of grant of such
Option. In no instance shall the effective date of grant be earlier than the
actual date of grant.

Section 2.3: Adjustments. If prior to the complete exercise of any Option there
shall be declared and paid a stock dividend upon the Shares of the Corporation
or if such Shares shall be consolidated or subdivided or converted, exchanged or
reclassified, or in any way substituted for, including without limitation,
pursuant to an amalgamation, arrangement or merger, then the Option, to the
extent that it has not been exercised, shall entitle the Optionee upon the
future exercise of the Option to such number and kind of securities or other
property, subject to the terms of the Option, to which the Optionee would have
been entitled had the Optionee actually owned the Shares subject to the
unexercised portion of the Option at the time of the occurrence of such stock
dividend, consolidation, conversion, subdivision, exchange, reclassification or
substitution; and the aggregate purchase price upon the future exercise of the
Option shall be the same as if originally optioned Shares of the Corporation
were being purchased hereunder. If any such event should occur, the number of
Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan shall be similarly adjusted.

 

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 2.4: Expiry of Options. If any Option shall expire or terminate for any
reason without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares subject
thereto may again be used for the purposes of the Plan.

Section 2.5: Time of Issuance of Options. The Board of Directors or the
Compensation Committee (if authorized by the Board of Directors) may at any time
and from time to time grant Options pursuant to this Plan. Subject to the
provisions of Section 2.6 and Section 2.7, nothing herein shall be construed to
prohibit the granting of Options at different times to the same person.

Section 2.6: Persons Eligible. Persons eligible to receive Options shall be
directors, officers and employees of or Consultants to the Corporation or of any
Subsidiary who demonstrate the potential of becoming key personnel of, or
performing valuable services for, the Corporation and/or a Subsidiary, in each
case as the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation
Committee or the Compensation Committee (if authorized by the Board of
Directors), may determine.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, no Options may
be granted to Insiders if such Options, together with any other Share
Compensation Arrangements could result in:

 

(i) the number of Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Share Compensation
Arrangements and issuable to Insiders collectively exceeding 10% of the
Outstanding Issue; or

 

(ii) the issuance to Insiders pursuant to Share Compensation Arrangements,
collectively within the 12 months immediately preceding or 12 months immediately
following the date of grant of such Options, of a number of Shares exceeding 10%
of the Outstanding Issue.

Section 2.7: Number of Shares to be Optioned. The number of Shares to be
optioned to any person shall be determined by the Board of Directors or the
Compensation Committee (if authorized by the Board of Directors) in its sole
discretion, except as hereafter provided. Each director of the Corporation who
is not also an employee of the Corporation or of a Subsidiary shall be entitled
to receive a one-time initial grant of Options in respect of 25,000 Shares upon
becoming a member of the Board of Directors, provided that if a person becomes a
member of the Board of Directors subsequent to the previous annual meeting of
shareholders of the Corporation, the number of Shares in respect of such initial
grant of Options shall be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the number of
days (proportionate to 365 and rounded up to the closest whole Share) that have
elapsed from the date of the previous annual meeting of shareholders to the date
of such person’s appointment to the Board of Directors. Thereafter each such
non-employee director will be entitled to receive an annual grant of Options in
respect of 25,000 Shares (and no more). The annual grant of Options to such
directors will be made at the meeting of the Board of Directors held on the day
of the annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation unless such day is
within a Trading Blackout, whereupon such grant of Options will be made on the
first business day following the cessation of the Trading Blackout.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 2.8: Form of Options. An Option Agreement, in the form or substantially
in the form set out in the schedule hereto, signed by the Chief Executive
Officer, the Chief Financial Officer or such other officer of the Corporation as
the Board of Directors may from time to time determine, shall be issued to each
person to whom an Option is granted.

Section 2.9: Assignability of Options. Options and all rights thereunder may be
assigned and transferred by the Optionee upon written notice to the Corporation
to the following persons:

 

  (a) a trustee, custodian or administrator acting on behalf of, or for the
benefit of the Optionee;

 

  (b) a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (“RRSP”) or a Registered Retirement
Income Fund (“RRIF”) of the Optionee;

 

  (c) a “holding entity” of the Optionee, as defined in NI 45-106;

 

  (d) a spouse of the Optionee;

 

  (e) a trustee, custodian or administrator acting on behalf of, or for the
benefit of the spouse of the Optionee;

 

  (f) a holding entity of the spouse of the Optionee, as defined in NI 45-106;

 

  (g) a RRSP or a RRIF of the spouse of the Optionee; and

 

  (h) to the legal personal representatives of a deceased Optionee, as provided
in Section 3.6 hereof.

Except as hereinbefore provided, the Options and all rights thereunder shall be
non-assignable and non-transferable by the Optionee and may not be pledged,
hypothecated, charged or otherwise encumbered.

Section 2.10: Foreign Participants. In order to assure the viability of Options
granted to Optionees employed in foreign countries, the Board of Directors or
the Compensation Committee may provide for such special terms as it may consider
necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy, or
custom. Moreover, the Board of Directors may approve such supplements to, or
amendments, restatements, or alternative versions of, the Plan as it may
consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes without thereby affecting
the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose; provided, however,
that no such supplements, amendments, restatements, or alternative versions
shall amend the Plan or any Option in a manner requiring shareholder approval
under Section 7.1(b) unless such shareholder approval is obtained.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ARTICLE III - EXERCISE OF OPTIONS

Section 3.1: Term and Vesting. The Board of Directors, on the recommendation of
the Compensation Committee or the Compensation Committee (if authorized by the
Board of Directors), shall determine the term during which each Option may be
exercised (the last day of such term is herein referred to as the “Normal Expiry
Date”) provided however that such term shall not exceed ten (10) years, subject
to earlier termination as herein provided. The Board of Directors, on the
recommendation of the Compensation Committee or the Compensation Committee (if
authorized by the Board of Directors), shall determine at the time of grant the
extent to which any Option may be exercised during the term of the Option. In
the absence of such determination by the Board of Directors or the Compensation
Committee:

 

  (a) An Option granted to a member of the Board of Directors shall vest and be
exercisable upon the first anniversary of the date of grant of such Option; and

 

  (b) An Option granted to any person other than a member of the Board of
Directors, shall not vest and shall not be exercisable during the first year
following the date of grant. 25% of the shares underlying such Option shall vest
and become exercisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the
remainder shall vest and become exercisable in 36 equal monthly installments,
such that the Option will, in the absence of an earlier termination pursuant to
Section 3.6 hereof, be fully vested and fully exercisable 48 months following
the grant date of the Option.

Section 3.2: How Exercisable. An Option shall be exercisable by the Optionee
from time to time by notice in writing to the Chief Executive Officer or Chief
Financial Officer of the Corporation (or such other person as the Board of
Directors or the Compensation Committee (if authorized by the Board of
Directors) may from time to time appoint for purposes of receiving same)
specifying the number of Shares to be purchased under such Option and
accompanied by full payment, in the manner provided in Section 3.3, of the
purchase price for the Shares to be issued.

Section 3.3: Consideration. The Compensation Committee shall determine the
methods by which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, the form of
payment (including, without limitation: (a) cash, (b) Shares held for such
period of time as may be required by the Compensation Committee in order to
avoid adverse accounting consequences and having a fair market value on the date
of delivery equal to the aggregate purchase price for the Shares to be issued,
or (iii) other property acceptable to the Compensation Committee, including
through the delivery of a notice that the Optionee has placed a market sell
order with a broker with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the
Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the
net proceeds of the sale to the Corporation in satisfaction of the Option
exercise price; provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the
Corporation upon settlement of such sale), and the methods by which Shares shall
be delivered or deemed to be delivered to the Optionee. Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Optionee who is a member of the
Board or an “executive officer” of the Corporation within the meaning of
Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to pay the exercise price
of an

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Option, or continue any extension of credit with respect to the exercise price
of an Option with a loan from the Corporation or a loan arranged by the
Corporation in violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act.

Section 3.4: Issuance of Shares. The Optionee shall be entitled to be entered in
the Share register of the Corporation, as of the day on which the Corporation
receives the notice and payment referred to in Section 3.2, and, as promptly as
practicable thereafter, to receive a certificate or certificates for the said
number of Shares in respect of which the Option has been exercised.

Section 3.5: Termination of Options. Any Option not exercised with the period
fixed for its exercise shall terminate and become void and of no effect.

Section 3.6: Cessation of Employment or Termination of Consulting Arrangements.
If an Optionee ceases to be a director, officer or employee of or a Consultant
to the Corporation or a Subsidiary, for any reason whatsoever, including death,
then unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors or the Compensation
Committee (if authorized by the Board of Directors), all Options held by such
Optionee shall cease to vest on the effective date on which such Optionee ceased
to be a director, officer or employee of or a Consultant to the Corporation or a
Subsidiary and all Options held by such Optionee shall terminate and cease to be
exercisable at the close of business on the day which is ninety (90) days
following the earliest to occur of:

 

(i) the effective date on which the Optionee ceased to be a director, officer or
employee of or a Consultant to the Corporation or a Subsidiary; and

 

(ii) the date that notice of dismissal from such office, employment or retainer
is given to such director, officer or employee of or Consultant to the
Corporation or Subsidiary.

The Optionee, or the legal personal representative of a deceased Optionee, as
the case may be, shall be entitled to exercise any Options during the period set
out above but only to the extent that such Options had vested and the Optionee
was entitled to exercise such Options at the effective date on which the
Optionee ceased to be a director, officer or employee of or a Consultant to the
Corporation or a Subsidiary. For greater certainty, no Option may be exercised
after the Normal Expiry Date except as provided in Section 3.7 hereof. An
Optionee who takes a leave of absence approved by the Board of Directors or the
Compensation Committee shall not be deemed to have ceased to be an officer or
employee for purposes of this Section 3.6.

Section 3.7: Expiry During Blackout Periods. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 3.1 and Section 3.6, no Option shall terminate and cease to be
exercisable, whether as a result of the occurrence of the Normal Expiry Date or
as a result of an Optionee ceasing to be a director, officer or employee of or a
Consultant to the Corporation or a Subsidiary, prior to the fifth business day
following the cessation of any restricted trading period imposed by the
Corporation by which directors, officers and employees of the Corporation are
prohibited from trading in securities of the Corporation (a “Trading Blackout”)
then in effect and if a Trading Blackout is not then in effect, prior to the
fifth business day following cessation of the most recent Trading Blackout.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ARTICLE IV - LIMITATIONS

Section 4.1: Limitation. The Corporation’s obligation to issue Shares in
accordance with the terms of this Plan is subject to compliance with the laws,
rules and regulations of all public agencies and authorities applicable to the
issuance and distribution of such Shares and to the listing of such Shares on
any Stock Exchange on which the Shares of the Corporation may be listed. Each
Optionee, as a condition of the grant of an Option to such Optionee, agrees to
comply with all such laws, rules and regulations and agrees to furnish to the
Corporation all information and such undertakings as may be required to permit
compliance with such laws, rules and regulations.

ARTICLE V - U.S. OPTIONEE

Section 5.1: U.S. Optionee. Any Option granted under this Plan to a U.S.
Optionee may be an ISO, but only if so designated by the Corporation in the
agreement evidencing such Option. No provision of this Plan, as it may be
applied to a U.S. Optionee, shall be construed so as to be inconsistent with any
provision of Section 422 of the Code. Grants of Options to U.S. Optionees which
are not ISOs may be granted pursuant to Section 2 hereof. Notwithstanding
anything in this Plan contained to the contrary, the following provisions shall
apply to incentive stock options granted to each U.S. Optionee:

 

  (a) ISOs shall only be granted to U.S. Optionees who, at the time of grant,
are officers, employees or directors of the Corporation or a Subsidiary
(provided, for purposes of this Article V only, such directors are then also
officers or employees of the Corporation). Any director of the Corporation who
is a U.S. Optionee shall be ineligible to vote upon the granting of such Option;

 

  (b) the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time the ISO is
granted) of the Shares subject to ISOs exercisable for the first time by a U.S.
Optionee during any calendar year under this Plan and all other stock option
plans, within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, of the Corporation or a
Subsidiary shall not exceed U.S. $100,000; provided that options for Shares
which exceed such aggregate fair market value shall not be void, but shall
instead be options which are granted under Section 2 hereof and are not ISOs;

 

  (c) the purchase price for Shares under each ISO granted to a U.S. Optionee
pursuant to this Plan shall be as determined in Section 2.2 and, in any event,
shall be not less than the fair market value of such Shares at the time the
Option is granted, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or the
Compensation Committee (if authorized by the Board of Directors) at such time;

 

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  (d) if any U.S. Optionee to whom an ISO is to be granted under the Plan at the
time of the grant of such ISO is the owner of shares possessing more than 10% of
the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Corporation,
then the following special provisions shall be applicable to the ISO granted to
such individual:

 

  (i) the purchase price per Share subject to such ISO shall not be less than
110% of the fair market value of one Share at the time of grant; and

 

  (ii) for the purposes of Article V only, the ISO exercise period shall not
exceed 5 years from the date of grant;

 

  (e) no ISO may be granted hereunder to a U.S. Optionee following the expiry of
10 years after the date on which this Plan is adopted by the Board of Directors
or the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Corporation,
whichever is earlier; and

 

  (f) no ISO granted to a U.S. Optionee under the Plan shall become exercisable
unless and until the Plan shall have been approved by the shareholders of the
Corporation.

ARTICLE VI - CHANGE OF CONTROL

Section 6.1: Acceptance of Offer. If a bona fide offer (the “Offer”) for Shares
is made to shareholders of the Corporation generally, or to a class of
shareholders of the Corporation which, if Options were exercised, would include
Optionees, and the Offer, if accepted in whole or in part, would result in a
Change of Control and if the Board of Directors recommends to shareholders of
the Corporation to accept such Offer and/or to vote in favor of the Offer then,
provided such recommendation is not withdrawn and notwithstanding Section 3.1
but subject to the other provisions hereof:

 

  (a) Any Options which are outstanding although not yet exercisable at the time
such recommendation is made by the Board of Directors shall automatically become
exercisable on the date such recommendation is made in the manner hereinafter
provided.

 

  (b) If any Options become so exercisable upon the recommendation by the Board
of Directors to accept or vote in favor of an Offer, the Corporation shall,
promptly after such recommendation has been given, notify each Optionee
currently holding an Option of the Offer, with full particulars thereof,
together with a notice stating that, in order to permit the Optionee to
participate in the Offer, the Optionee may, during the period that the Offer is
open for acceptance, exercise all or any portion of any such Option held by the
Optionee.

 

  (c) In the event that the Optionee so exercises any such Option, such exercise
shall be in accordance with Article III hereof; provided that, if necessary in
order to permit the Optionee to participate in the Offer, such Option shall be
deemed to have been exercised, and the issuance of Shares received upon such
exercise (the “Optioned Shares”) shall be deemed to have occurred, effective as
of the first day prior to the earlier of the date on which the Offer was made
and the date such recommendation was made.

 

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  (d) If: (i) the Offer is not completed (within the time specified therein, if
applicable); or (ii) all of the Optioned Shares tendered by the Optionee
pursuant to the Offer are not taken up and paid for by the offeror in respect
thereof, then the Optioned Shares or, in the case of (ii) above, the portion
thereof that are not taken up and paid for by such offeror, shall be returned by
the Optionee to the Corporation for cancellation and the terms of the Option as
set forth herein shall again apply to such Option, or the remaining portion
thereof, as the case may be.

 

  (e) If any Optioned Shares are returned to the Corporation pursuant to
subsection (d) above, the Corporation shall refund the option price to the
Optionee in respect of such Optioned Shares.

Section 6.2: Receipt of Offer. If a bona fide Offer for Shares is made to
shareholders of the Corporation generally, or to a class of shareholders of the
Corporation which, if Options were exercised, would include Optionees, and the
Offer, if accepted in whole or in part, would result in a Change of Control
then, notwithstanding Section 3.1 but subject to the other provisions hereof:

 

  (a) The Board of Directors may give its express consent to the exercise of any
Options which are outstanding although not yet exercisable at the time of the
Offer in the manner hereinafter provided.

 

  (b) If the Board of Directors has so consented to the exercise of any Options
outstanding at the time of the Offer, the Corporation shall, promptly after such
consent has been given, notify each Optionee currently holding an Option of the
Offer, with full particulars thereof, together with a notice stating that, in
order to permit the Optionee to participate in the Offer, the Optionee may,
during the period that the Offer is open for acceptance, exercise all or any
portion of any such Option held by the Optionee.

 

  (c) In the event that the Optionee so exercises any such Option, such exercise
shall be in accordance with Article III hereof; provided that, if necessary in
order to permit the Optionee to participate in the Offer, such Option shall be
deemed to have been exercised, and the issuance of Optioned Shares shall be
deemed to have occurred, effective as of the first day prior to the date on
which the Offer was made.

 

  (d) If: (i) the Offer is not completed (within the time specified therein, if
applicable) or (ii) all of the Optioned Shares tendered by the Optionee pursuant
to the Offer are not taken up and paid for by the offeror in respect thereof,
then the Optioned Shares or, in the case of (ii) above, the portion thereof that
are not taken up and paid for by such offeror, shall be returned by the Optionee
to the Corporation for cancellation and the terms of the Option as set forth
herein shall again apply to such Option, or the remaining portion thereof, as
the case may be.

subsection (d) above, the Corporation shall refund the option price to the
Optionee in respect of such Optioned Shares.

Section 6.3: Change of Control. If a transaction occurs that is not otherwise
contemplated by this Article VI, and such transaction would, upon consummation,
result in a Change of Control, then, notwithstanding Section 3.1 but subject to
the other provisions hereof, any Options which are outstanding although not yet
exercisable at the time such transaction is consummated shall automatically
become exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

ARTICLE VII - AMENDMENT AND INTERPRETATION

Section 7.1: Amendment and Discontinuance.

 

  (a) The Board of Directors may: (i) discontinue the Plan at any time except
that such discontinuance may not alter or impair any Option previously granted
to an Optionee under the Plan; and (ii) subject to any necessary approval of the
Toronto Stock Exchange or any other Stock Exchange on which the Shares may then
be listed and subject to subsection (b) hereof, from time to time amend the Plan
in its absolute discretion without the approval of the Corporation’s
shareholders.

 

  (b) The Corporation’s shareholders shall approve any amendment to the Plan or
any Option which: (i) reduces the exercise price of an Option either directly,

similar Option; (ii) extends the period available to exercise an Option beyond

interest so disregarded.
