ARTICLE 2
RETENTION WARRANTS PLAN

2.1           Issuance

 
(a)
Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Board will have the authority to
determine the limitations, restrictions and conditions, if any, in addition to
those set out in this Plan, applicable to the exercise of a Retention Warrant,
including, without limitation, the nature and duration of the restrictions, if
any, to be imposed upon the sale or other disposition of Shares acquired upon
exercise of the Retention Warrant, and the nature of the events, if any, and the
duration of the period in which any Participant’s rights in respect of Shares
acquired upon exercise of a Retention Warrant may be forfeited.  An Eligible
Person and Eligible Person’s RRSP or RRIF may be issued Retention Warrants on
more than one occasion under this Plan.

 
(b)
The effective date of any issuance of Retention Warrants pursuant to this Plan
shall be the date on which the Board approves such issuance, whether at a
meeting of the Board or by written resolution.

 
 
(c)
Subject to the Regulations, the aggregate number of securities available for
issuance under the Plan to any one Eligible Person and an RRSP or an RRIF of
which that person is an annuitant, will be 5% of the Shares outstanding at the
time of the grant (on a non-diluted basis).

 
 
4

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

 
 
 
(d)
With respect to any Retention Warrants granted to a “covered individual”, as
defined in Section 162(m)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”), the award shall be made by a committee of the Board
that constitutes a “compensation committee” within the meaning of Section
162(m).

2.2          Exercise of Retention Warrants

 
(a)
Retention Warrants issued must be exercised no later than 5 years after the date
of the issuance or such lesser period as the applicable issuance, the
Regulations or the provisions of this Plan may require (the “Expiry Date”):
provided, however, in the event that a Retention Warrant is scheduled to expire
or terminate during or within 10 business days following a Blackout Period, the
Expiry Date shall be the date that is the tenth business day following the date
of expiry of the Blackout Period (the “Blackout Expiry Date”).  If a new
Blackout Period is imposed prior to the Blackout Expiry Date, the Blackout
Expiry Date shall be the date that is the tenth business day following the date
of expiry of the new Blackout Period.

 
(b)
The Board may determine when any Retention Warrant will become exercisable and
may determine that the Retention Warrant will be exercisable in installments.

 
 
(c)
No fractional Shares may be issued and the Board may determine the manner in
which fractional Share value will be treated.

 
 
(d)
Not less than 100 Shares may be purchased at one time except where the remainder
totals less than 100.

2.3          Exercise Price of Retention Warrants

Subject to the applicable rules of any stock exchange or quotation system on
which the Shares may be listed from time to time, the Board will establish the
Exercise Price of a Retention Warrant at the time each Retention Warrant is
granted on the basis of the closing market price of the Shares on the market
with the largest trading volume of the Shares on the last trading date preceding
the date of the issuance.  If there is no trading market for the Shares, the
Board will in good faith determine the Exercise Price of a Retention Warrant
based on the fair market value of the Shares on the date of the issuance.  If
the Retention Warrant is to be issued on a pre-determined date in the future,
the Exercise Price of a Retention Warrant will be the weighted average trading
price, rounding up to the nearest cent, of the Shares on the stock exchange or
quotation system upon which any shares of the Corporation are then listed and
posted or quoted for trading for the five trading dates preceding the date of
the issuance.  In all instances, the Exercise Price shall be no lower than fair
market value, as determined under Section 409A of the Code.

2.4          Issuance to Participant’s RRSP or RRIF

Upon written notice from the Participant, any Retention Warrant that might
otherwise be issued to that Participant will be issued, in whole or in part, to
an RRSP or an RRIF established by and for the sole benefit of the
Participant.  The determination of whether and the extent to which a Participant
is entitled by applicable tax law to contribute Retention Warrants to the
Participant’s RRSP or RRIF shall be the responsibility of the Participant.

2.5          Termination, Retirement, Death or Departure

 
(a)
Subject to subsection (c), if a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Person for
any reason whatsoever other than death, each Retention Warrant held by the
Participant, the Participant’s Permitted Assigns, or the Participant’s RRSP or
RRIF will cease to be exercisable 90 days after the Termination Date.  If any
portion of a Retention Warrant has not vested by the Termination Date, that
portion of a Retention Warrant may not under any circumstances be exercised by
the Participant’ the Participant’s Permitted Assigns or the Participant’s RRSP
or RRIF.  This subsection (a) will apply regardless whether the Participant
received compensation in respect of dismissal or was entitled to a period of
notice of termination which would otherwise have permitted a greater portion of
the Retention Warrant to vest in the Participant, the Participant’s Permitted
Assigns or the Participant’s RRSP or RRIF.

 
 
5

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

 
 
 
(b)
If a Participant dies, the legal representatives of the Participant may exercise
the Participant’s Retention Warrants, the Participant’s Permitted Assign’s
Retention Warrants and the participant’s RRSP Retention Warrants or RRIF
Retention Warrants within 120 days after the date of the participant’s death but
only to the extent the Retention Warrants were by their terms exercisable on the
date of death.

 
 
(c)
In the event that a Participant’s employment, consultancy or directorship, as
applicable, is terminated by the Corporation for cause (as defined in such
Participant’s employment or consulting agreement, as applicable), such
Participant’s Retention Warrants and its Permitted Assign’s Retention Warrants,
whether vested or otherwise, shall immediately terminate.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the Board shall have discretion to
permit such Participant and its Permitted Assigns to exercise the vested portion
of such Participant’s Retention Warrants (as of the termination date).  The
Board shall have a period of 30 days to exercise its discretion to permit the
exercise of such Participant’s Retention Warrants and in the event of such
exercise of discretion, the Retention Warrants shall be deemed not to have been
terminated as of the termination date of the Participant’s employment,
consultancy or directorship, as applicable.

2.6          Retention Warrant Agreements

Each Retention Warrant must be confirmed, and will be governed, by an agreement
(a “Retention Warrant Agreement”) substantially in the form of Schedule “A”
attached hereto (as the same may be amended from time to time by the
Regulations) and signed by the Corporation.

2.7          Payment of Retention Warrant Price

Subject to section 2.9, the exercise price of each Share purchased pursuant to
the exercise of a Retention Warrant must be paid in full by bank draft or
certified cheque at the time of exercise, and upon receipt of payment in full,
but subject to the terms of this Plan, the number of Shares in respect of which
the Retention Warrant is exercised will be duly issued as fully paid and
non-assessable.

2.8          Cashless Exercise

If the Shares are listed and posted for trading on a stock exchange or market, a
Participant may elect “cashless” exercise in a notice of exercise if the Shares
issuable on exercise are to be immediately sold.  In such case, the Participant
will not be required to deliver to the Corporation the certified cheque or bank
draft referred to in section 2.7. Instead the following procedure will be
followed, as detailed in a Cashless Exercise Instruction Form to be provided by
the Corporation and completed by the Participant:

 
(a)
the Participant will instruct a broker selected by the Participant to sell
through the exchange or market on which the Shares are listed or quoted the
Shares issuable or exercise of a Retention Warrant, as soon as possible and the
then applicable bid price of the Shares;

 
(b)
on the settlement date for the trade, the Corporation will direct its registrar
and transfer agent to issue a certificate in the name of the broker (or as the
broker may otherwise direct) for the number of Shares issued on exercise of the
Retention Warrant, against payment by the broker to the Corporation of the
exercise price for such Shares; and

 
 
(c)
the broker will deliver to the Participant the remaining proceeds of sale, net
of the brokerage commission.

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

 
 
2.9          Withholding

The Corporation shall have the right to deduct and withhold from (or recover in
respect of) any payment to be made pursuant to or in connection with this Plan,
any Retention Warrant or any Shares the amount of any taxes required by law to
be withheld from, or paid in connection with, such payment.  The Corporation
may, in its discretion, permit a Participant to elect to satisfy such
withholding obligation through a cash payment to be made by such Participant,
through the surrender of Shares held by a Participant in a manner acceptable to
the Corporation, or through the surrender of shares which the Participant is
otherwise entitled to receive under the Plan or any Retention Warrant.  The
Corporation shall have the right to sell any of the Participant’s Shares to
satisfy or recover any taxes which are payable by the Corporation in respect of
this Plan, any Retention Warrant or any Shares for the account of such
Participant.  Where the withholding undertaken in connection with the foregoing
is considered by the Corporation to be inadequate, the payment or delivery of
property hereunder by the Corporation shall be conditional upon such Participant
(or other person) reimbursing or compensating the Corporation or making
arrangements satisfactory to the Corporation for the payment or provision of all
required taxes.  For purposes hereof, “taxes” shall refer to any local, foreign,
federal, provincial, state, social security, withholding or any other taxes or
governmental charges of any kind whatsoever.

2.10        Participant Responsibility

Neither the Corporation nor any of its Subsidiaries shall assume any
responsibility in respect of any tax consequences that arise from participation
in the Plan by any employee, consultant or other person.  Such persons are urged
to consult their own independent tax advisors in such regard.  In particular,
the Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall have no liability in respect of any
Retention Warrants which a Participant may cause to be issued to any personal
holding corporation and/or their spouse and/or minor children or grandchildren,
and/or to RRSP, RRIF  or similar deferred compensation plans.

ARTICLE 3
GENERAL

3.1          Right to Exercise Retention Warrants in connection with a Proposed
Transaction

 
(a)
If there is a Take-over Bid or Issuer Bid (other than a “Normal Course” Issuer
Bid) made for all or any of the issued and outstanding Shares, then the Board
may, in its sole discretion, by resolution permit any or all unvested Retention
Warrants outstanding under the Plan to become immediately exercisable (subject
to any limitation the Board of Directors may impose) in order to permit Shares
issuable under such Retention Warrants to be tendered to such bid.

 
(b)
There shall be no automatic vesting of unvested Retention Warrants in the event
of a Change of Control (as defined below) unless otherwise agreed in a
Participant’s employment or consulting agreement; however, the Board may, in its
sole discretion, by resolution permit any or all unvested Retention Warrants of
any or all Participants outstanding under the Plan to become immediately
exercisable (subject to any limitations the Board may impose) in the event of a
Change of Control.  For the purposes of this provision , a “Change of Control”
will be deemed to have occurred when:

 
 
(i)
a person (which includes a partnership or corporation) acting alone or jointly
or in concert with others, acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities of
the Corporation which, together with voting securities of the Corporation
already owned by such person or persons, constitutes in the aggregate 50% or
more of the outstanding voting securities of the Corporation (for greater
certainty, an initial public offering of the Corporation’s Shares will not
constitute a Change of Control).  A person who is principally engaged in the
business of managing investment funds for unaffiliated securities investors and,
as a part of such person’s duties for fully managed accounts, holds or exercises
voting power over voting securities of the Corporation, will not, solely by
reason thereof, be considered to be a beneficial owner of such voting
securities;

 
(ii)
the Corporation agrees to amalgamate, consolidate or merge with another body
corporate;

 
 
7

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

 
 
 
(iii)
any resolution is passed or any action or proceeding is taken with respect to
the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; or

 
 
(iv)
the Corporation decides to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of all, or
substantially all, of its assets.

All unvested Retention Warrants held by an Eligible Person shall vest
immediately in the event that such Eligible Participant’s employment or
consultancy is terminated at any time prior to the expiry date of such Retention
Warrants by virtue of, or in connection with, a Change of Control, except in the
case of termination for cause of such Eligible Participant’s employment or
consultancy (in which case such Retention Warrants shall not vest).

3.2          Acceleration or Waiving of Vesting Periods

The Board shall not accelerate or waive vesting periods of any Retention
Warrants issuable under the Plan except pursuant to the provisions of this Plan
in the case of death, disability, retirement or Change of Control (the
“Permitted Grounds”).  If the Board or any committee of the Board accelerates or
waives the vesting period for any reason other than the Permitted Grounds, the
number of Retention Warrants in respect of which vesting is to be accelerated or
waived for purposes other than the Permitted Grounds shall be limited to 10% of
the securities authorized for issuance under the Plan.

3.3          Prohibition on Transfer of Retention Warrants

Retention Warrants are personal to each Eligible Person and its Permitted
Assigns.  No Eligible Person may deal with any Retention Warrants or any
interest in them or Transfer any Retention Warrants now or hereafter held by the
Eligible Person except in accordance with the Plan.  A purported Transfer of any
Retention Warrants in violation of the Plan will not be valid and the
Corporation shall not issue any Share upon the attempted exercise of improperly
Transferred Retention Warrants.

3.4          Prohibition on Transfer of Shares

No Participant will, upon exercise of a Retention Warrant, deal with any Share
or any interest in it or Transfer any Share now or hereafter held by the
Participant, the Participant’s Permitted Assigns or the Participant’s RRSP or
RRIF except in accordance with the Articles of the Corporation.

3.5          Capital Adjustments

If there is any change in the outstanding Shares by reason of a stock dividend
or split, recapitalization, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares, or
other fundamental corporate change, the Board will make an appropriate
substitution or adjustment in (i) the exercise price of any unexercised
Retention Warrants under the Plan; (ii) the number or kind of shares or other
securities reserved for issuance pursuant to this Plan; and (iii) the purchase
price of those shares subject to unexercised Retention Warrants theretofore
granted under the Plan, and in the exercise price of those unexercised Retention
Warrants; provided, however, that no substitution or adjustment will obligate
the Corporation to issue or sell fractional Shares.  In the event of the
reorganization of the Corporation or the amalgamation or consolidation of the
Corporation with another corporation, the Board may make such provision for the
protection of the rights of Eligible Persons, Participants and their RRSPs or
their RRIFs as the Board in its discretion deems appropriate.  The determination
of the Board, as to any adjustment or as to there being no need for adjustment,
will be final and binding on all parties.

3.6           Non-Exclusivity

Nothing contained herein will prevent the Board from adopting other or
additional compensation arrangements for the benefit of any Eligible Person or
Participant, subject to any required regulatory or shareholder approval.
 
 
8

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

 
 
3.7          Amendment and Termination

 
(a)
The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend or terminate
the Plan without shareholder approval, provided that no such amendment,
suspension or termination may be made without obtaining any required approval of
any regulatory authority or stock exchange or the consent or deemed consent of a
Retention Warrant holder where, in the case of a Retention Warrant holder such
amendment, suspension or termination materially prejudices the rights of the
Retention Warrant holder.

 
 
(b)
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.7(a), the Board may not, without the
approval of the shareholders of the Corporation, make amendments to the Plan for
any of the following purposes:

 
 
(i)
to increase the maximum number of Common Shares issuable under the Plan;

 
 
(ii)
to reduce the Exercise Price of Rights for the benefit of an Insider;

 
 
(iii)
to extend the period for which the Retention Warrants are exercisable in respect
of Rights for the benefit of an Insider; and

 
 
(iv)
to amend the provisions of this Section 3.7(b).

 
 
(c)
The Board may, at any time and from time to time, without the approval of the
shareholders of the Corporation, amend any term of any outstanding Retention
Warrant, provided that:

 
 
(i)
any required approval of any regulatory authority or stock exchange is obtained;

 
 
(ii)
if the amendments would reduce the Exercise Price or extend the period for which
the Retention Warrants are exercisable in respect of Retention Warrants granted
to Insiders, approval of the shareholders of the Corporation must be obtained;

 
 
(iii)
the Board would have had the authority to initially grant the Retention Warrants
under the terms so amended; and

 
 
(iv)
the consent or deemed consent of the Retention Warrants holder is obtained if
the amendment would materially prejudice the rights of the Retention Warrants
holder.

 
 
(d)
If this Plan is terminated pursuant to section 3.7(a) hereof or otherwise, the
provision of this Plan and any administrative guidelines, and other rules and
Regulations adopted by the Board and in force at the time of this Plan, will
continue in effect as long as any Retention Warrants under the Plan or any
rights pursuant thereto remain outstanding.  However, notwithstanding the
termination of the Plan, the Board may make any amendments to the Plan or the
Retention Warrants it would be entitled to make if the Plan were still in
effect.

 
 
(e)
Where shareholder approval of an amendment is required pursuant to this section
3.7, such shareholder approval may be given by way of confirmation at the next
meeting of shareholders after the amendment is made, provided that no Retention
Warrants may be exercised pursuant to the amended terms prior thereto.

 
 
9

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

 
 
3.8          Restrictions on Awards
 
The maximum number of Common Shares that:
 
 
(a)
may be reserved for issuance to Insiders pursuant to the Plan and any other
previously established or proposed Share Compensation Arrangement is 10% of the
number of Common Shares outstanding;

 
 
(b)
may be issued to Insiders under the Plan and any other previously established or
proposed Share Compensation Arrangement within a one-year period is 10% of the
number of Common Shares outstanding; and

 
 
(c)
may be issued to any one Insider under the Plan and any other previously
established or proposed Share Compensation Arrangement within a one-year period
is 5% of the number of Common Shares outstanding.

 
If a proposed Share Compensation Arrangement, together with all of the
Corporation’s other previously established or proposed Share Compensation
Arrangements, could result, at any time, in the number of shares reserved for
issuance pursuant to stock options granted to Insiders exceeding 10% of the
outstanding issue, the Share Compensation Arrangement must be approved by a
majority of the votes cast at the shareholders’ meeting other than votes
attaching to securities beneficially owned by Insiders.
 
For the purposes of this Section 3.8, holders of non-voting and subordinate
voting shares must be entitled to vote with the holders of any class of shares
of the Corporation which otherwise carry greater voting rights, on a basis
proportionate to their respective residual equity interests in the Corporation.
 
3.9          Compliance with Legislation
 
(a)
The Board may postpone or adjust any exercise of any Retention Warrants or the
issue of any Shares pursuant to this Plan as the Board in its discretion may
deem necessary in order to permit the Corporation to effect or maintain
registration of this Plan or the Shares issuable pursuant thereto under the
securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction, or to determine that the Shares
and this Plan are exempt from such registration.  The Corporation is not
obligated by any provision of this Plan or any grant hereunder to sell or issue
Shares in violation of any applicable law.  In addition, if the Shares are
listed on a stock exchange, the Corporation will have no obligation to issue any
Shares pursuant to this Plan unless the Shares have been duly listed, upon
official notice of issuance, on a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed
for trading.

 
(b)
Without limiting the generality of Section 3.9(a), with regard to Participants
who are residents of the United States, the Board may administer this Plan in
accordance with Rule 701 or Rule 506 of Regulation D under the U.S. Securities

Schedule “A” to Retention Warrants Plan
 
PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL

<<Name and Address of Retention Warrant holder>>
 
Dear <<First Name>>
 
The Retention Warrants Plan (the “Plan”) governing the issuance of retention
warrants (“Retention Warrants”) to purchase common shares (“Shares”) of NeuLion,
Inc. (the “Corporation”) permits the board of directors (the “Board”) of the
Corporation to issue Retention Warrants to officers, employees and certain
others whose contribution to the Corporation are significant.  In recognition of
your future and continuing contribution to the Corporation and in order to
permit you to share in enhanced value that you will help to create, the Board is
pleased to issue you, as of <<Date of Issue>> Retention Warrants to purchase
Shares of the Corporation.  This agreement (the “Agreement”) is granted on the
basis set out in this letter, and is subject to the Plan.  This Agreement and
the Plan are referred to collectively as the “Documents”.  All capitalized terms
not otherwise defined are to bear the meaning attributed to them in the Plan, a
copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule “A”.
 
The total number of Shares that you may purchase pursuant to this Agreement is:
<<Amount>>
 
The price you must pay for each Share to be acquired on the exercise of the
Retention Warrants is: <<Price>>
 
Your Retention Warrants will vest and are exercisable in the following manner:
 
Vesting Date
Percentage of Retention Warrants Exercisable
Expiry Date
 
On or After Vesting Date
        .   .   .  

 
Subject to earlier expiration in accordance with the Documents, your rights to
purchase Shares pursuant to this Retention Warrant will expire at 5:00 p.m. on
<<ExpiryDate>> (unless such expiration falls within a Blackout Period, in which
case the your rights to purchase Shares will expire on the Blackout Expiry
Date).
 
The Retention Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part in respect of vested
Retention Warrants at any time prior to expiry of the relevant Retention
Warrants.  The Retention Warrants may not be exercised in amounts less than 100
Shares in the case of any one exercise unless that exercise would entirely
exhaust the Retention Warrants.
 
You may exercise your vested Retention Warrants at any time before the Expiry
Date, or in the Blackout Expiry Date, as the case may be, by delivering to the
Corporation a completed exercise notice (similar to the attached Schedule ‘B”)
together with cash or a certified cheque payable to “NeuLion, Inc.” in the
amount of the total Exercise Price Per Retention Warrant of the number of Shares
being purchased.  No fractional Shares will be issued upon exercise of Retention
Warrants, and the Corporation will satisfy such fractional interest by paying a
cash adjustment in an amount equal to the same fraction of the exercise price.

All decisions made by the Board with regard to any questions arising in
connection with the Documents, whether of interpretation or otherwise, will be
binding and conclusive on all parties.
 
This Agreement is personal and may not be sold, pledged, transferred or
encumbered in any way.  There are restrictions on the transfer of Shares issued
to you pursuant to the Plan.  As well, restrictions apply in connection with
cessation of engagement.  Complete details of these restrictions are set out in
the Plan.
 
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the Province of Ontario.
 
Please acknowledge your acceptance of this Agreement by signing where indicated
