3.7    Change of Control
3.7.1    If after the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Optionholder’s employment is terminated by the Corporation without Cause, including a constructive dismissal, the Optionholder may exercise all of the Options (including, for greater certainty, the Options that had vested as at the Date of Termination and the Options that had not yet vested as at the Date of Termination), notwithstanding Section 3.1, during the period ending on the Expiry Date, after which the Options will expire.
3.7.2    If a “take-over bid” (within the meaning of applicable securities legislation) made by any person for the voting securities of the Corporation would, if successful, result in a Change of Control, then:

	the exercise of the Options (including, for greater certainty, the Options that had vested as at the Date of Termination and the Options that had not yet vested as at the Date of Termination) shall only be for the purpose of depositing the Optioned Shares pursuant to the take-over bid; and


		
	(d)
	if the Optioned Shares are not deposited by the Optionholder pursuant to the take-over bid or, if deposited, are subsequently withdrawn by the Optionholder or not all taken up and paid for by the offeror, then the Optionholder shall promptly return the Optioned Shares (or the portion that are not taken up and paid for) to the Corporation for cancellation, the Options respecting such Optioned Shares shall be deemed not to have been exercised, the Optioned Shares shall be deemed not to have been issued and the Corporation shall refund to the Optionholder the aggregate Exercise Price for the Optioned Shares.


3.8    Accredited Investor
The Optionholder represents that he is an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus and Registration Exemptions).
ARTICLE 4
EXERCISE OF OPTIONS
4.1    Manner of Exercise
4.1.1    The Optionholder who wishes to exercise the Options may do so by delivering the following to the Corporation on or before the Expiry Date of the Options:
		
	(e)
	a completed Notice of Exercise; and


		
	(f)
	subject to Section 4.3, a cheque (which need not be a certified cheque) or bank draft payable to the Corporation for the aggregate Exercise Price of the Optioned Shares being acquired.


4.1.2    If the Optionholder is deceased or mentally disabled, the Options may be exercised by a legal representative of the Optionholder or the Optionholder’s estate or by a person who acquires the Optionholder’s rights under the Options by bequest or inheritance and who, in addition to delivering to the Corporation the Notice of Exercise and (if applicable) cheque or bank draft described above, must also deliver to the Corporation evidence of their status.
4.2    Delivery of Share Certificate
Not later than five business days after receipt by the Corporation, pursuant to Section 4.1, of the Notice of Exercise and payment in full for the Optioned Shares being acquired, the Corporation will direct its registrar and transfer agent to issue a certificate in the name of the Optionholder or an intermediary on behalf of the Optionholder (or, if deceased, his or her legal representative or beneficiary) for the number of Optioned Shares purchased by the Optionholder 



10




(or his or her legal representative or beneficiary), which will be issued as fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares.
4.3    Cashless Exercise
4.3.3    The Optionholder may elect “cashless” exercise in a Notice of Exercise if the Optioned Shares are to be immediately sold.  In such case, the Optionholder will not be required to deliver to the Corporation a cheque or bank draft in respect of the aggregate Exercise Price.  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 Optionholder (or such other form of cashless exercise instruction as may be established by the Corporation, including by electronic means through a service provider selected by the Corporation from time to time):
		
	(f)
	the Optionholder will instruct a broker selected by the Optionholder to sell through the Toronto Stock Exchange the Common Shares issuable on exercise of the Options, as soon as possible and at the then applicable bid price for the Common Shares;


		
	(g)
	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 Common Shares issued on exercise of the Options, against payment by the broker to the Corporation of the Exercise Price for such Common Shares; and


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


4.4    Withholding
If the Corporation determines that the satisfaction of taxes, including withholding tax, or other withholding liabilities is necessary or desirable in respect of the exercise of the Options, the exercise of the Options is not effective unless such taxes have been paid or withholdings made to the satisfaction of the Corporation.  The Corporation may require the Optionholder to pay to the Corporation, in addition to the Exercise Price for the Optioned Shares, any amount as the Corporation is obliged to remit to the relevant taxing authority in respect of the exercise of the Options.  Any such additional payment is due no later than the date on which any amount with respect to the Options exercised is required to be included in the gross income of the Optionholder for tax purposes.
