              This Agreement shall terminate upon:

       (a)    the written agreement of each of the Founding Shareholder, the
              Strategic Partners and, if such termination would reasonably be

              by the Corporation under the provisions of the BANKRUPTCY AND

              survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section
              1.12(b);

       (c)    one person becoming the beneficial owner of all of the outstanding
              Common Shares and securities convertible into or exercisable for

              Article 13, Article 14 and Article 17 of this Agreement shall
              survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this
              Section 1.12(d).

1.13          AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.

              This Agreement may be amended with the prior consent in
writing, duly executed, of: (i) the Founding Shareholder; (ii) each of the
Strategic Partners; and (iii) if such amendment would reasonably be expected
to prejudice their rights hereunder, the Management  Shareholders.

              Notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, this
Agreement may also be amended for the purposes of reflecting the admission of
a new Strategic Partner as a Shareholder of the Corporation (for greater
certainty, pursuant to Section 1.18 or where such admission has been duly
approved in accordance with the provisions of Sections 4.2(d)(iv) and 4.2(e)).

              The settlement of the required amendments to this Agreement in
this regard shall take place in accordance with the following provisions and
shall require the written consent of those Strategic Partners and, if
applicable, the Founding Shareholder, as shall have approved the admission of
the incoming Strategic Partner, or in the case of Section 1.18, by the
Founding Shareholder together with a majority in number of the Strategic
Partners (in each case, collectively, the "Admitting Parties"), provided,
however, that any amendments to this Agreement that are not Consequential
Amendments (as defined below) shall require approval in accordance with the
first paragraph of this Section 1.13.

              In this regard, amendments to this Agreement may be made:  (i)
to afford the new Strategic Partner with rights and subject it to obligations
comparable in all material respects with those applicable generally to the
existing Strategic Partners; or (ii) which are consequential to the admission
of a new Strategic Partner; or (iii) to reflect then existing rights and
obligations provided specifically for the benefit for (and subject to waiver
by) a particular Strategic Partner (such as, for example, the ability to
restrict transfers and issuances of Common Shares to competitors of the
particular Strategic Partner).  In addition, changes may be made at the
request of the proposed new Strategic Partner which are non-material and
which cannot reasonably be considered adverse to the interests of the
Founding Shareholder and the existing Strategic Partners.  The amendments
contemplated by this paragraph are referred to, collectively, as the
"Consequential Amendments".

              Any such Consequential Amendments to the Agreement shall be
prepared by the Founding Shareholder and circulated in draft to each of the
Strategic Partners for their review and comment and such parties shall work
together and use all reasonable commercial efforts, acting reasonably and in
good faith, to settle the form and substance of the amended and restated
Agreement so that the final form thereof accommodating the entry of the new
Strategic Partner can be delivered by the Founding Shareholder to each of the
Strategic Partners and, if required,  to the other Shareholders (other than
Employee Shareholders) and the voting trustee for the Employee Shareholders
for their execution by no later than the 15th business day after the
circulation of the preliminary draft thereof.  In the event that any such
Shareholder (other than
<PAGE>
                                     - 22 -


those Strategic Partners who have approved the admission of such new
Strategic Partner) fails to sign and return to the Founding Shareholder the
final form of amended and restated Shareholders' Agreement by no later than
the 15th business day after the delivery thereof, then, without prejudice to
any other rights which it may have, the Admitting Parties (or their
designated representative) shall be deemed to have been irrevocably appointed
by such Shareholders which shall not have signed and returned their
Agreements as their attorney in that behalf in accordance with the POWERS OF
ATTORNEY ACT (Ontario). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that such
power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest, given for
consideration, and cannot be revoked without the consent of the other parties
hereto. For greater certainty, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
such power of attorney does not apply to and is not applicable to those
Strategic Partners which approved the admission of the new Strategic Partner.

              With respect to any provision of this Agreement prohibiting the
transfer or issuance of shares to a particular person in the circumstances
solely because such person is a "Competitor of BMO", a written waiver from
BMO shall be sufficient to permit the particular transaction and such waiver
shall be binding on the parties hereto.   Further, if at any time none of BMO
or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries are Shareholders, all references to
"Competitor of BMO" herein shall be deleted and this Agreement shall be
deemed to have been duly amended and restated to reflect such deletions.

1.14          ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING.

              Subject to the provision of Section 5.2, all accounting and
financial records of the Corporation shall be prepared in accordance with
GAAP applied consistently during the periods covered thereby.  The accounting
and financial records of the Corporation shall be kept in Canada.  The
Corporation also agrees to make available to any Governmental Authority
entitled thereto, including OSFI, at all times, the accounting and financial
records of the Corporation.

1.15          SHAREHOLDER REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS.

              The parties hereto desire to at all times comply in all
respects with all Applicable Law, including the requirements of Applicable
Law that apply specifically to a particular Shareholder as a result of the
nature of its business or the governmental licenses or permits that it holds
to carry on such business (for greater certainty and for purposes of
illustrative example, including the Bank Act and the regulations thereunder
as well as the applicable guidelines, recommendations and directions of OSFI,
as these relate to BMO). Also, for greater certainty, the parties hereto
shall cause the Corporation to carry on primary activities consistent with an
"information services corporation" (within the meaning given to such term in
the Bank Act) until such time as the characterisation of the Corporation as
an "information services corporation" is no longer required as a prerequisite
for any Shareholder, that is subject to the Bank Act, to hold the number of
Common Shares that it holds directly or indirectly.

              In the event of: (i) a change in Applicable Law or the
application thereof by the applicable Governmental Authority; or (ii) a
change in the nature or geographic extent of the Corporation's business as
then carried on or proposed to be carried on; or (iii) a change or proposed
change in the identity of one or more of the Shareholders; or (iv) such other
facts
<PAGE>
                                     - 23 -


concerning the Corporation exist (including, without limitation, any proposed
action on the part of the Corporation), in any case such that the Founding
Shareholder, BMO, BAC, CSTC, Sonera, WFC, FTV1, FTV2 or HSBC would no longer
be permitted, pursuant to Applicable Law, to maintain all or part of their
respective shareholdings in the Corporation (directly or through their
respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries), the Corporation and the affected
Shareholder shall meet to consider whether the indicated Applicable Law would
in fact apply to the proposed course of action, to consider the impact of
such Applicable Law to the Corporation and to the affected Shareholder and to
consider whether there are any reasonable alternatives to the proposed course
of action available (and whether these can be implemented in a timely fashion
having regard to the needs of the Corporation and the affected Shareholder).

              In this regard, the affected Shareholder shall be obligated to
pursue in good faith, using commercially reasonable efforts and on a timely
basis and at its sole expense, all reasonable alternatives and potential
solutions available to it, including, without limitation: (i) restructuring
the manner in which its interest in the Corporation is held; (ii) seeking to
obtain all necessary licenses, permits, consents, notices, approvals,
filings, certificates, registrations and/or authorizations of, by and/or with
any Governmental Authority necessary and/or required to be obtained by, or
issued or granted to, such  Shareholder and seeking other regulatory
approvals and/or guidance; and (iii) seeking the assistance of other members
of its corporate group.

              If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the affected Shareholder
determines, acting reasonably and in good faith and otherwise in accordance
with this Section 1.15, that the action in question cannot be implemented in
a manner that results in the affected Shareholder remaining in compliance
with Applicable Law, then the Corporation shall not pursue the action in
question unless and until the required regulatory approval is obtained or the
action can otherwise be implemented in accordance with the requirements of
Applicable Law.

              In this regard, the parties hereto covenant and agree to act in
good faith in attempting to find a mutually acceptable solution (including,
if applicable, making such additions or changes to the rights and obligations
of the parties pursuant to this Agreement as shall result in an equitable
treatment of all parties having regard to their relative rights and
obligations as of the date hereof).

              Each Shareholder shall be solely responsible for monitoring
legal developments specifically applicable to the operation of its business,
interpreting Applicable Law, determining the requirements for compliance with
such Applicable Law and identifying changes thereto.  Further, each
Shareholder covenants and agrees to respond, on a timely basis having regard
to the Corporation's needs, to inquiries from the Corporation as to the
ability of the Corporation to pursue a specified action in light of the
requirements of Applicable Law as it relates to the particular Shareholder.
In this regard such Shareholders shall, upon request by the Corporation,
provide the Corporation with designated contact officers who possess or have
direct access to the expertise and internal authority required for the
purposes of this Section 1.15.

                      along rights" for the Founding Shareholder or "tag
                      along rights" for the benefit of the other Shareholders
                      (pursuant to Article 8 or Article 10).

              All other rights hereunder of the Founding Shareholder and Greg
              Wolfond personally, including, without limitation: (a) the
              Founding Shareholder's right to vote the Common Shares held by
              Employee Shareholders; (b) the Founding Shareholder's right to
              pledge, transfer or otherwise deal with its Common Shares; and
              (c) the Founding Shareholder's rights as a Shareholder,
              including its pre-emptive rights and registration rights, shall
              remain unchanged.

       (b)    FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER HOLDS LESS THAN 800,000 COMMON SHARES.
              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in
              the event that the Founding Shareholder and each Permitted
              Transferee thereof, ceases to hold at least 800,000 equity
              shares of the Corporation:

              (i)     the right of the Founding Shareholder to vote the
                      Common Shares of the Employee Shareholders provided for
                      in Section 4.7 shall be terminated and each Shareholder
                      shall be entitled to vote the shares registered in
                      his/her name; and

              (ii)    the Agreement shall be deemed to have been amended to
                      provide that the amendments contemplated in Paragraph
                      1.17(a)(v) shall also apply.

       (c)    FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER NO LONGER HOLDS ANY COMMON SHARES.
              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in
              the event that the Founding Shareholder and each Permitted
              Transferee thereof, ceases to hold any equity securities of the
              Corporation, all of the provisions hereof conferring unique
              rights upon the Founding Shareholder and/or Greg Wolfond
              personally, shall be deemed to be amended to delete such rights
              and any reference to the Founding Shareholder.  However, for
              greater certainty, any rights that have accrued in favour of
              the Founding Shareholder or Greg Wolfond immediately prior to
              or upon such final disposition (for example, rights to
              reimbursement of expenses and rights to indemnification) and
              any rights in respect of a breach or non-compliance with the
              provisions hereof shall continue in favour of the Founding
              Shareholder and Greg Wolfond.  In replacement for such Founding
              Shareholder powers, the Agreement shall be deemed to have been
              amended to provide that the amendments contemplated in
              Paragraph 1.17(a) shall also apply.

1.18          SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE RIGHTS ATTACHING TO THE COMMON
              SHARES SOLD BY THE FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER

              In the event that the Founding Shareholder sells any of the equity
securities of the Corporation to a Person (including, for greater certainty, a
Strategic Partner) that is not a member of the Founding Shareholder (the
"Purchaser"), no unique rights of the Founding Shareholder, as
<PAGE>
                                     - 26 -


provided in this Agreement, shall be conferred upon such Purchaser, except
that the Founding Shareholder shall be entitled to assign its registration
rights relating to the shares of the Corporation being sold (without
prejudice to the registration rights attaching to the shares that the
Founding Shareholder continues to hold), provided, however, that the Founding
Shareholder Demand Registration rights may only be assigned in whole, and not
in part, and the Founding Shareholder shall not retain any part of the
Founding Shareholder Demand Registration rights once they have been assigned.

              The Purchaser shall, for the purposes hereof, be deemed to be,
and shall otherwise be treated as, a Strategic Partner if it acquires at
least 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares in the transaction or
series of related transactions pursuant to which such Purchaser first becomes
a Shareholder (inclusive of all of the Common Shares acquired from other
Shareholders).  For greater certainty, the Purchaser shall be treated as a
new Strategic Partner for purposes of any right to nominate a director of the
Corporation as such right exists on the date of the acquisition which makes
the Purchaser a new Strategic Partner (I.E. as at August 2, 1999, the
Purchaser shall be entitled to appoint a nominee to the Board of Directors if
it holds no less than 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares).  If
the Purchaser does not acquire at least 5% of the issued and outstanding
Common Shares, as contemplated above, then the Purchaser shall, for the
purposes hereof, be treated as if it is a Management Shareholder.

1.19          SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO FTV

       (a)    The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that for all purposes
              herein, FTV1 and FTV2 shall, collectively, be considered to be

              liable for their compliance with the terms hereof.

       (b)    For purposes of simplifying the administration of the
              Corporation and to enable the other Shareholders to deal with
              FTV1 and FTV2 collectively with respect to those provisions
              hereof contemplating or allowing for the approval, consent,
              waiver or other exercise of rights by FTV as a Strategic
              Partner, or by FTV1 or FTV2 in its capacity as a Shareholder or

                      Technology Management, L.L.C. as its voting trustee in

                      Shares") which are now owned by either FTV1 or FTV2 or
                      are acquired by either of them from time to time
                      hereafter. Financial Technology Management, L.L.C.
                      shall be entitled, by its authorized representative,

                      connection with initiating, taking part and consenting
                      to any action of the Corporation or other matter
                      concerning the Subject Shares contemplated hereunder or
                      any matter for which the waiver, consent, approval or
                      other action on the part of FTV (including any member
                      thereof) is required or permitted or otherwise

                      on behalf of FTV (including any member thereof);

                      on, and accept any decisions and/or instructions
                      communicated verbally or in any other manner whatsoever

                      FTV, without further inquiry with FTV1 and FTV2;

              (iii)   in furtherance of the foregoing, FTV1 and FTV2 shall
                      from time to time and at all times during the term of
                      this Agreement (including upon a replacement of their

                      under this Section 1.19 or otherwise for purposes of
                      enabling the collective administration of the aggregate
                      shareholding of FTV with respect to the Corporation, as
                      contemplated herein; and

              (iv)    FTV1 and FTV2 may collectively designate by notice in
                      writing to the other Shareholders and the Corporation a
                      replacement for Financial Technology Management, L.L.C.
                      as its voting trustee and the other Shareholders and
                      the Corporation shall be entitled to rely upon and
                      accept any decisions and/or instructions communicated

or is subjected to the obligation to subscribe for shares or other securities of
the Corporation, the following provisions shall be applicable:

              (i)     unless otherwise allocated among FTV1 and FTV2 by

              Corporation shall be deemed to include the HSBC Warrant or the
              Common Shares issuable under the HSBC Warrant.

       (b)    For the purposes of those provisions in this Agreement not
              contained in Article 6 and Article 7, any reference to HSBC's
              shares or securities of the Corporation shall be deemed not to
              include the HSBC Warrant or the Common Shares issuable under the
              HSBC Warrant unless and until the HSBC Warrant has been exercised
              and the underlying Common Shares thereunder have been issued to

              1.20(c), the decision to extend the term of the HSBC Warrant shall
              be a Category 3 Material Decision provided that:  (i) if such term
              extends or could extend (including as a result of subsequent
              events) beyond the date which is 10 business days prior to the
              time or period in or under which BMO has the entitlement, or is
              entitled, to exercise its rights pursuant to Section 11.5 hereof
              (Special Provisions Relating to BMO's Pre-Emptive Right), then any
              such extension shall, in addition, require the implementation of
              binding contractual arrangements in favour of BMO which protect
              and maintain BMO's rights pursuant to Section 11.5 that would or
              could be prejudiced by such extension; and (ii) if such term
              extends beyond March 31, 2000 then any such extension shall
              require the prior written consent of the Founding Shareholder and
              all Strategic Partners.  Any such extension shall not be effective
              and shall have no force or effect until such required arrangements
              are entered into or consent is obtained.  The Corporation
              covenants and agrees that following the exercise of HSBC's rights
              under the HSBC Warrant, it shall give written notice in this

              will conflict with or result in the violation, contravention or
              breach of, or any default under, any of the terms or provisions
              of the constating documents or by-laws of the Corporation or of
              any agreement, obligation, contract, commitment, law or

       (a)    (i)     Prior to an Initial Public Offering, the affairs of the
                      Corporation shall be managed by a Board of Directors
                      (the size of which is currently 11, but is subject to
                      change in the circumstances described in Section
                      1.1(mm)(vii), and otherwise in accordance with the
                      provisions of Section 4.2(d)(ii)) which shall at all
                      times consist of:

                      (A)    One nominee of each of:

                             (1)   subject to the provisions of Section 1.17,
                                   the Founding Shareholder (regardless of the
                                   level of its shareholdings in the
                                   Corporation),

                             (2)   those of the Strategic Partners as at August
                                   2, 1999 which hold at the relevant time at
                                   least 4% of the issued and outstanding Common

                                   at August 2, 1999 who have never sold or
                                   otherwise disposed of any Common Shares
                                   (other than to a Permitted Transferee), and

                             (3)   those of the Strategic Partners which became
                                   or become Strategic Partners after August 2,
                                   1999 and which hold at the relevant time at
                                   least 10% of the issued and outstanding
                                   Common Shares;

                      (B)    two directors selected by a majority of the
                             Strategic Partners from a list of five potential
                             candidates proposed in good faith by the
                             Founding Shareholder on the basis that they
                             would be Independent Directors; and

                      (C)    the balance of the number of directors from time
                             to time shall be selected by the Founding
                             Shareholder from members of the Management Team.

                      For greater certainty, all of the Shareholders covenant
                      and agree to vote their shares of the Corporation for the
                      election of the nominees of each of the Strategic
                      Partners and the Founding Shareholder as contemplated
                      above.

              (ii)    Should any vacancy occur on the Board of Directors, the
                      Shareholders shall be given prompt notice of such event
                      by the General Counsel of the Corporation, in
                      accordance with the notice provisions herein, and such
<PAGE>
                                     - 33 -


                      vacancy shall be filled forthwith by the appointment of
                      a nominee or nominees by the Shareholder(s) who shall
                      have appointed the former director who was not
                      re-elected or whose resignation or removal caused the
                      vacancy.  Until such vacancy is filled, the Board of
                      Directors shall not transact any business or exercise
                      any of its powers or functions, save and except as may
                      be necessary to appoint such new director(s) and/or
                      preserve the business and assets of the Corporation.
                      Provided that if a replacement director is not
                      appointed as aforesaid within 15 days of the date of
                      the General Counsel's notice of such vacancy occurring,
                      thereafter the directors then in office shall be
                      entitled to transact business and exercise all of the
                      powers and functions of the Board of Directors and,
                      further, for the purposes of this Agreement, the
                      unanimous decision of the directors then in office
                      shall constitute the unanimous decision of all of the
                      directors of the Corporation until such time as the
                      replacement director(s) is properly appointed and a
                      decision of a majority (or specified supermajority) of
                      the directors then in office shall constitute a
                      majority (or specified supermajority) decision of all
                      of the directors of the Corporation until such time as
                      the replacement director(s) is properly appointed.

              (iii)   For greater certainty and notwithstanding any provision
                      of the By-laws of the Corporation to the contrary, no
                      director or directors who are nominees of a Strategic
                      Partner or of the Founding Shareholder, as the case may
                      be (as provided in Section 4.2(a)(i)), may be removed
                      from the Board of Directors except in compliance the
                      provisions of Section 4.2(a)(i) or, if otherwise, with
                      the consent of the Shareholder(s) which shall have so
                      nominated them.  Shareholder(s) shall replace the
                      nominee(s) they are entitled to appoint if such
                      nominees are no longer eligible to serve as a director
                      pursuant to the Act or other Applicable Law.  Provided,
                      however, that if a Shareholder shall cease to be
                      entitled to appoint one or more nominees who are then
                      members of the Board of Directors, it shall forthwith
                      cause the resignation or removal of such nominee(s) to
                      which it is no longer entitled.

              (iv)    The Corporation shall at all times comply with Section
                      118(3) of the Act, to the extent that such section is
                      applicable to the Corporation, which requires that a
                      majority of the directors of the Corporation shall be
                      resident Canadians; and in furtherance thereof, each of
                      the Founding Shareholder and BMO agrees that its
                      nominee on the Board of Directors shall at all times be
                      a resident Canadian.  In the event that any of such
                      nominees is no longer a resident Canadian, then the
                      Founding Shareholder or BMO, as the case may be, shall
                      forthwith cause its nominee on the Board of Directors
                      to resign and nominate a director who is a resident
                      Canadian.  If the Founding Shareholder or BMO, as the
                      case may be, does not appoint a resident Canadian as a
                      replacement nominee director within 15 business days,
                      the Shareholders shall be entitled to temporarily
                      appoint a resident Canadian director, from a list of
                      nominees tabled by the Founding Shareholder, until such
                      time as the Founding Shareholder or BMO, as the

                      case may be, nominates a resident Canadian as its
                      representative on the Board of Directors and the
                      Shareholders appoint such nominee to the Board of
                      Directors.

       (b)    The officers of the Corporation, until changed in accordance
              with Section 5.1, shall be:

                    Chairman of the Board and      Gregory Wolfond
                    Chief Executive Officer

                    President, General Counsel     Christopher Erickson
                    and Secretary

                    Chief Operating Officer &      Kerry McLellan
                    Executive Vice-President,
                    Strategy

                    Chief Technology Officer       Andre Boysen

                    Chief Financial Officer        Karen Basian

              and such additional officers as Greg Wolfond may determine from
              time to time in accordance with Section 5.1.  Notwithstanding
              the foregoing, if an above-named officer resigns his office, a
              replacement shall be named in accordance with Section 5.1.

       (c)    A quorum for meetings of the Board of Directors shall consist
              of 75% of the members of the Board.  In the event that a quorum
              is not present at the time appointed for a meeting, or within
              such reasonable time thereafter as the directors present may
              determine, the meeting shall be adjourned to a fixed time and
              place (provided that at least 48 hours' notice (excluding
              Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) is given to all of the
              directors), and no further business shall be conducted at the
              adjourned meeting.  At the reconvened meeting, the quorum shall
              be a majority of the number of directors.

       (d)    Subject to the provisions of Section 1.15 hereof, the
              implementation of any matter that constitutes a Material
              Decision shall require the following approvals.  For greater
              certainty, a proposed decision, action or transaction which
              constitutes (or parts of which constitute) a Material Decision
              for which more than one approval requirement is specified shall
              be governed by the more rigorous approval requirement; and a
              matter specifically authorized in a duly approved
              budget/business plan that, when implemented, would otherwise
              have constituted an additional Category 3 Material Decision,
              need not be re-approved:

              (i)     for a CATEGORY 1 MATERIAL DECISION, (in each case, even
                      if the matter is contemplated in an approved budget or
                      business plan), approval by majority vote at a duly
                      convened meeting of the Board of Directors and the
                      written consent of Shareholders holding at least 90% of
                      the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the
                      Corporation;

              (ii)    for CATEGORY 2 MATERIAL DECISIONS, (in each case, even
                      if the matter is contemplated in an approved budget or
                      business plan), approval by majority vote at a duly
                      convened meeting of the Board of Directors and the
                      written consent of Shareholders holding at least 66
                      2/3rd% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares,
                      PROVIDED THAT:

                      (A)    any Material Decision described in Section
                             1.1(mm)(ix) that is approved in accordance with
                             this paragraph must also require that the
                             proposed sale price of the relevant asset was no
                             less than the price determined by an independent
                             valuation performed by a valuator selected by
                             the Board of Directors;

                      (B)    the Material Decision described in Section
                             1.1(mm)(x) that is approved in accordance with
                             this paragraph would trigger the events and
                             rights described in Section 15.4; and

                      (C)    the vote of a Strategic Partner which would,
                             directly or indirectly, (including through its
                             Affiliates and Associates) be the recipient of
                             the license contemplated in Section 1.1(mm)(xii)
                             shall not be counted for purposes of determining
                             whether the required approval of that matter has
                             been obtained;

              (iii)   for CATEGORY 3 MATERIAL DECISIONS, approval by majority
                      vote at a duly convened meeting of the Board of
                      Directors and the written consent of Shareholders
                      holding: (A) more than 50% of the issued and
                      outstanding Common Shares (provided that the Founding
                      Shareholder has voted its shares as part of such
                      majority); or (B) 66 2/3rd% of the issued and
                      outstanding Common Shares (if the Founding Shareholder
                      has not voted its shares as part of such special
                      majority).  If the Founding Shareholder does not vote
                      in favour of the proposed Material Decision, but the
                      written consent of Shareholders holding more than 50%
                      but less than 66 2/3rd% of the issued and outstanding
                      Common Shares has been obtained, then the following
                      procedure will be implemented: (A) a special committee
                      of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the
                      "Special Committee") consisting of one of the directors
                      appointed to the Board of Directors by the Founding
                      Shareholder, the nominees on the Board of Directors
                      appointed by the Strategic Partners, together with the
                      Independent Directors, will be formed; (B) the Special
                      Committee will consider the merits of the proposed
                      Material Decision; and (C) if a majority of the members
                      of the Special Committee vote to approve the proposed
                      Material Decision, then the Material Decision will be
                      implemented, notwithstanding the objection of the
                      Founding Shareholder.  Conversely, if less than a
                      majority of the members of the Special Committee vote
                      in favour of the proposed Material Decision, then the
                      proposed Material Decision will not be implemented.
                      NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING:

                      (A)    subject to the provisions of Article 15, if the
                             proposed decision is that contemplated by Section
                             1.1(mm)(xxiii) (an Initial Public Offering), then
                             it shall be required that the Founding Shareholder
                             be part of the requisite majority; and

                      (B)    the approval of a Material Decision described in
                             1.1(mm)(xv) (access platforms) shall require that
                             at least one Strategic Partner that is a financial
                             institution votes in favour of such Material
                             Decision; and

              (iv)    for a CATEGORY 4 MATERIAL DECISION, approval by a
                      majority vote at a duly convened meeting of the Board of
                      Directors and the written consent of Shareholders holding
                      at least 71% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

              The Founding Shareholder and each of the Strategic Partners
              covenants and agrees that if its consent (or a waiver of its
              rights herein) is requested, it will act without undue delay.
              Each of the Strategic Partners further covenants and agrees that
              any Permitted Transferee of its shares of the Corporation shall
              not bind its discretion with respect to the voting of its shares
              of the Corporation (or with respect to requests for consents and
              waivers by the Corporation) in favour of any third party
              (including, in particular, such third parties as may hold an
              interest in Permitted Transferees not wholly-owned (directly or
              indirectly) by the Strategic Partners, as the case may be).

       (e)    The issuance of Common Shares or securities convertible into or
              exchangeable for Common Shares or any equity securities or any
              securities carrying rights, options or warrants to acquire such
              securities or Common Shares (except pursuant to the Stock Option
              Plan) shall require the following approvals and be subject to the
              following terms:

              (i)     If the proposed subscriber for such proposed issuance is
                      a new Strategic Partner,  the necessary approvals shall
                      have been obtained in accordance with Section 4.2(d)(iv)
                      and the provisions of Article 11 hereof (Pre-emptive
                      Rights) shall not be applicable (with the exception of
                      Sections 11.5, 11.6 and 11.7, to the extent applicable in
                      the circumstances).  The Founding Shareholder shall be
                      entitled to commence discussions with potential Strategic
                      Partners on a preliminary basis in order to ascertain
                      their interest in and the relative merits of, subscribing
                      for an interest in the Corporation as a Strategic
                      Partner.  The Founding Shareholder shall, at the earliest
                      moment practicable in the circumstances (bearing in mind
                      the disruption to the Strategic Partners of premature
                      discussions with them, on the one hand, and the needs of
                      the Corporation to maintain confidentiality and avoid
                      creating expectations on the part of the potential
                      Strategic Partner which might not meet with the approval
                      of the then existing Strategic Partners, on the other
                      hand) make a formal presentation to the Board of
                      Directors concerning the proposed transaction

<PAGE>

                                     -37-

                      and, in particular, the reasons why the proposed
                      Shareholder meets the definition of "Strategic Partner"
                      herein and the relative advantages and disadvantages of
                      accepting such investor as a Strategic Partner.  After
                      approval of the proposed transaction by the Board of
                      Directors, the Founding Shareholder shall have a
                      reasonable period of time during which to attempt to
                      garner the required support.  If the required written
                      approvals are not obtained within 120 days of the Board
                      of Directors' approval, any such transaction must be
                      resubmitted to the Board of Directors for discussion
                      and re-approval.  The proposed new Strategic Partner
                      shall be required to enter into this Agreement on
                      substantially the same terms as are applicable to the
                      then existing Strategic Partners and the preparation,
                      settlement and execution of the amended and restated
                      Agreement reflecting such new Strategic Partner shall
                      be conducted in accordance with the procedures set out
                      in Section 1.13 hereof; and

               (ii)   If the proposed issuance is to any person other than a
                      new Strategic Partner, such securities to be offered
                      shall (unless the transaction is specified to be exempt
                      from the application of Sections 11.1, 11.2, and 11.3
                      pursuant to Section 11.4) first be offered to the
                      Founding Shareholder together with the then existing
                      Strategic Partners on a PRO RATA basis in accordance
                      with the provisions of Article 11.  If the amount of
                      capital desired to be raised by the Board of Directors
                      has not been fully subscribed for by the Founding
                      Shareholder and the then existing Strategic Partners
                      (or any combination thereof) in accordance with the
                      preceding sentence: (I) the subscribing Shareholders
                      shall be offered the ability to subscribe for
                      additional securities on the same terms (PRO RATA to
                      their respective ownership of equity securities of the
                      Corporation immediately prior to the proposed
                      issuance), in one or more rounds as required until the
                      Corporation's capital requirement is satisfied or the
                      subscribing Shareholders are unwilling to subscribe for
                      additional equity; and (II) then, and only then, will
                      the Corporation be permitted to issue securities to the
                      proposed third party subscriber (provided that the
                      Corporation complies with the provisions of the second
                      paragraph of Section 11.2 hereof, which shall be deemed
                      to apply MUTATIS MUTANDIS), and then only to the extent
                      of the balance of the funds required. Further, if the
                      combined effect of any such share issuances results in
                      the circumstances contemplated by Sections 11.5, 11.6
                      or 11.7, additional issuances of Common Shares shall be
                      made to BMO and/or BAC and/or CSTC and/or Sonera and/or
                      the Founding Shareholder, as the case may be, pursuant
                      to and in accordance with the provisions of such
                      Sections.

       (f)    So long as at least one Strategic Partner is a Shareholder, the
              external accountants of the Corporation shall be any of one of the
              following accounting firms recognised as KPMG Inc.,
              PricewaterhouseCoopers, Arthur Andersen, Deloitte & Touche or
              Ernst & Young, or any successor thereto.

       (g)    Notwithstanding any by-law, resolution, determination, statutory
              rule or rule of procedure to the contrary, the chairman at any
              meeting of the Board of Directors or at any meeting of the
              Shareholders shall not be entitled to a second, extra or casting
              vote in the case of a tie vote at any such meeting.

       (h)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Constating
              Documents of the Corporation, any or all of the directors or
              Shareholders may participate in meetings of the Board of
              Directors, of a committee of the Board of Directors, or of the
              Shareholders by means of such telephone, electronic or other
              communication facilities as permit all persons participating in
              the meeting to communicate with each other, simultaneously and
              instantaneously, and any director, committee member or
              Shareholder participating in such meeting by such means is
              deemed to be present at the meeting (except to the extent that
              the particular individual is participating by means of such
              telephone, electronic or other communication facilities solely
              for the purpose of objecting to the meeting being held on the
              basis that it has not been properly convened).  The
              Shareholders shall, if requested by the Corporation, provide
              written proxies and arrange for a physical quorum to be present
              at a particular location, and/or circulate for execution
              written resolutions, if required for the business conducted at
              the meeting to comply with the Act or other Applicable Law.

       (i)    No director who attends a meeting of the Board of Directors by
              means of such telephone, electronic or other communication
              facilities shall be permitted to, directly or indirectly,
              record, transcribe or otherwise reproduce or store such
              proceedings by any electronic or other means without the
              express, prior consent of all of the other directors attending
              such meeting, nor shall such director by any act or omission
              permit any other person to make such record, and any director
              who participates in the making of any such recording shall be
              deemed not to have acted honestly and in good faith with a view
              to the best interests of the Corporation.  The provisions of
              this Section 4.2(i) shall apply MUTATIS MUTANDIS to meetings of
              the Shareholders.

       (j)    The By-laws of the Corporation shall provide for written notice
              to be delivered to each member of the Board of Directors: (a)
              not less than ten business days before the time the meeting is
              to be held if the notice is mailed; or (b) not less than seven
              days before the time the meeting is to be held if the notice is
              given personally or is delivered or is sent by any means of
              transmitted or recorded communication, unless such notice is
              waived by the directors.  The Board of Directors shall hold
              regularly scheduled meetings at the head office of the
              Corporation at least quarterly, for which advance written
              notice shall be required.

       (k)    Independent Directors, directors that are members of the
              Management Team, and the nominee director of the Founding
              Shareholder shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Corporation
              for their reasonable expenses incurred in attending meetings of
              the Board of Directors or committees of the Board of Directors
              (including travel, telephone, video conference and related
              expenses).

                                     -39-


       (l)    The Board of Directors may from time to time resolve to pay
              reasonable directors' fees, however only to Independent
              Directors.

       (m)    The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Common Shares or
              other equity or voting securities acquired pursuant to the
              exercise of Options granted under the Stock Option Plan
              (including for greater certainty any approved supplemental
              incentive compensation plan) shall be registered in the name of
              the Designated Representative (within the meaning given to such
              term in the Stock Option Plan) and held for safekeeping on his
              behalf by the Corporation's counsel, all as contemplated by the
              Stock Option Plan and, if applicable, any voting and deposit
              agreement entered into in connection therewith.  Further, such
              Common Shares held on behalf of Employee Shareholders shall be
              subject to the provisions of Section 4.7 of this Agreement.

4.3           LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY/SHAREHOLDER PERSONAL INTEREST.

              No director or officer shall be liable for the acts, receipts,
neglects or defaults of any other director, officer, employee, or agent, or for
joining in any receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss, damage or
expense happening to the Corporation through the insufficiency or deficiency of
title to any property acquired for or on behalf of the Corporation, or for the
insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the moneys
of the Corporation shall be invested, or for any loss or damage arising from the
bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious acts of any person with whom any of the
moneys, securities or effects of the Corporation shall be deposited, or for any
loss occasioned by any error of judgement or oversight on his part, or for any
other loss, damage or misfortune whatever which shall happen in the execution of
the duties of his office or in relation thereto, unless the same are occasioned
by his own wilful misfeasance.

              It is expressly agreed that Shareholders are permitted to
consider and pursue their own personal interests when acting as Shareholders,
except as required by Applicable Law or as contemplated herein.  Further,
except as required by Applicable Law and except as may be contemplated in any
contract, agreement or other commitment between the Shareholder and the
Corporation (or any Affiliate or Subsidiary or Associate thereof), no
Shareholder shall be personally liable for any debt, obligation or liability
of the Corporation (including, without limitation, any transaction risk or
liability arising from the Business or the business of any other
Shareholder), except as may be imposed by Applicable Law, PROVIDED that this
sentence is not intended to limit or restrict any obligation of, or
undertaking given by, any Shareholder (or Affiliate or Subsidiary or
Associate thereof) under any other contract, agreement or other commitment
with the Corporation.  No individual trustee, officer, director, stockholder,
member, partner, employee or agent of any Shareholder, in his or her
individual capacity as such, shall have any personal liability for any
failure by such Shareholder to perform, satisfy or discharge any obligation
or liability under this Agreement.

              The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that any person
appointed to the Board of Directors by a Strategic Partner, or the Founding
Shareholder, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 4.2(a) (a "Nominee") may
be an employee or officer of such Shareholder(s) or one or more of the
Affiliates thereof, or otherwise may not be independent from such persons.

                                     -40-


              In the event that during any discussions with any member of the
senior management of the Corporation or in connection with, for the purposes
of, and/or concerning the business to be transacted at, a meeting of the
Board of Directors, such Nominee is aware of information which may be
relevant, pertinent or of interest to, the Business or to the Corporation
(the "Subject Matter") which information (the "Conflicting Information"):

       (I)    if disclosed to the Corporation would result:

              (a)     in a breach or contravention of a fiduciary duty owed by
                      such Nominee to such Shareholder(s) or to one or more of
                      the Affiliates thereof, or would otherwise result in such
                      Nominee, or such Shareholder(s) or one or more of the
                      Affiliates thereof, being in breach or contravention of,
                      or in default under, Applicable Law;  or

              (b)     in a breach or contravention of, or default under, any
                      term or provision of any agreement or commitment to which
                      such Nominee, or such Shareholder(s) or one or more of
                      Affiliates thereof, is a party or by which any such
                      person(s) is bound which specifically prohibits such
                      disclosure to be made; or

       (II)   constitutes trade secrets, strategic information, know-how,
              marketing plans, client lists or other proprietary information of
              such Shareholder(s) or any of its Affiliates,

then such Nominee shall, if such Conflicting Information is immediately
pertinent to the Subject Matter at the time of such discussion or meeting:
(i) disclose to such member of senior management of the Corporation in the
case of such discussion, or to the Chairman or the President of the
Corporation in the case of such meeting of the Board of Directors, the fact
that he/she is aware of such Conflicting Information, and at such time
describe in reasonable detail the general nature of such Conflicting
Information (provided, for greater certainty, that such description need not
contain any such detail which would result in a breach of the conflicting
duty); and (ii) excuse himself/herself from such discussion, or, in the case
of such meeting of the Board of Directors, from such meeting until such time
that the remaining members of the Board of Directors at such meeting have
fully and completely discussed the Subject Matter and have either reached a
resolution regarding the same or have adjourned any further discussion of the
Subject Matter until a future time and place, at which time the foregoing
provisions shall again apply (and so on from time to time; provided, for
greater certainty, that such Nominee may attend any such subsequent meeting
of the Board of Directors for the purposes of establishing a quorum).

              If such Nominee satisfies the foregoing, each party hereto
expressly waives and releases any and all claims, in any form, which it may
have against such Nominee, such Shareholder and any of its Affiliates,
whether based on common law (including, without limitation, the laws of
equity) or statute, for such Nominee's failure to disclose the Conflicting
Information.  The parties hereto acknowledge that the Shareholder who
nominated a Nominee to be a director of the Corporation holds the benefit of
the waiver, release and authorization

<PAGE>

                                     -41-


contained in this Section in trust for its own benefit and for the benefit of
such Nominee and its Affiliates from time to time.

              The parties hereto further hereby acknowledge that each Nominee
shall be required to enter into a form of confidentiality and non-disclosure
agreement with the Corporation (in form and substance satisfactory to the
Corporation, such Nominee and the Shareholder(s) who has appointed such
Nominee, and their respective counsel, each acting reasonably and in good
faith) which, in general, shall provide that such Nominee shall not, without
the prior written consent of the Corporation, disclose to the Shareholder(s)
who has appointed such Nominee and to any of the Affiliates and Subsidiaries
thereof or to any of the other Shareholders or their Affiliates and
Subsidiaries or to any of its and their officers, directors, employees,
consultants, agents, advisors, accountants, lawyers, attorneys or other
representatives, any Confidential Information revealed to such Nominee in
his/her capacity, and during his/her tenure, as a director of the Corporation
which the Corporation determines, acting in good faith, would, if disclosed
to Competitors, place, or potentially place, the Corporation at a strategic
or competitive disadvantage to any such Competitor, provided that the
Corporation indicates to such Nominee that such information is Confidential
Information which is not to be disclosed to the Shareholders or other persons.

              Provided, further, that the Nominee shall not be liable to the
Corporation or the other parties hereto if he acts in good faith in
discussing the information so obtained with representatives of, or advisors
to, the Shareholder which shall have appointed him to the Board of Directors
at any time prior to the Corporation indicating to such Nominee that such
information so disclosed is Confidential Information and is not to be
discussed with the Shareholders.  After such indication is made by the
Corporation, the Nominee will conduct himself in accordance with the
Corporation's instructions in this regard and any Shareholder which shall
have received such information shall, for greater certainty, be bound by the
provisions of Section 17.2 hereof.

4.4           INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

              As required or permitted by the Act, the Corporation shall
indemnify and save harmless every director or officer, every former director
or officer, and every person who acts or acted at the Corporation's request
as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the Corporation is or
was a shareholder or creditor (or a person who undertakes or has undertaken
any liability on behalf of the Corporation or any such body corporate) and
his heirs and legal representatives, from and against all costs, charges and
expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a
judgement, reasonably incurred by him in respect of any civil, criminal or
administrative action or proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of
being or having been a director or officer of the Corporation or such body
corporate, if:

       (a)    he acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best
              interests of the Corporation; and

       (b)    in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding
              that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he had reasonable grounds
              for believing that his conduct was lawful.

4.5           INSURANCE.

              Subject to the limitations contained in the Act, the
Corporation may purchase and maintain such insurance for the benefit of any
director or officer, as the Board of Directors may from time to time
determine.

4.6           EFFECT OF ARTICLE 4.

              The provisions of this Article 4 shall be in addition to and
not in substitution for any rights, immunities and protections to which every
director or officer, every former director or officer, and every person who
acts or acted at the Corporation's request as a director or officer of a body
corporate of which the Corporation is or was a shareholder or creditor (or a
person who undertakes or has undertaken any liability on behalf of the
Corporation or any such body corporate) and his heirs and legal
representatives, is otherwise entitled.

4.7           CERTAIN MATTERS PERTAINING TO EMPLOYEE SHAREHOLDERS AND
              MANAGEMENT SHAREHOLDERS

              Prior to an Initial Public Offering, any Employee Shareholder
shall vote or cause to be voted his Common Shares and any Common Shares held
by a Shareholder of which he is the Principal or held by a member of the
Immediate Family of such Employee Shareholder in the manner in which the
Founding Shareholder votes its Common Shares (either in favour or against
that particular matter) provided that any such vote:

       (a)    does not cause such Employee Shareholder (and/or the Shareholder
              of which he is the Principal and/or his Immediate Family which is
              the Shareholder) to be treated disproportionately with regard to
              the Founding Shareholder in terms of the effect of such matter on
              such parties' shareholdings in the Corporation;

       (b)    does not otherwise negatively impact or prejudice such Shareholder
              disproportionately relative to the Founding Shareholder; or

       (c)    is not illegal or against public policy.

              Prior to an Initial Public Offering, if any of the
circumstances contemplated by Section 18 of the Stock Option Plan (or
equivalent provisions of any supplementary incentive plan) become applicable,
then the Board of Directors, with appropriate notice and in a fair and
equitable manner, shall have the right and entitlement to cause the Employee
Shareholders and the Management Shareholders to tender, sell or escrow their
shares of the Corporation in the manner and on the terms contemplated by the
provisions of such Section 18. All determinations of the Board pursuant to
this Section 4.7 shall be conclusive and final.

4.8           CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

              In the event that one or more of the nominees of the Founding
Shareholder on the Board of Directors may be viewed as having a potential
conflict of interest in a decision to be made by the Board of Directors as a
result of being a member of, or related or connected to, a member of the
Founding Shareholder, the parties hereby agree to cause such matter to be
placed
<PAGE>
                                     - 43 -


before the Shareholders for their approval at a duly constituted meeting of
the Shareholders, notwithstanding that such matter would not ordinarily be a
matter to be dealt with by the Shareholders.

4.9           RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES.

              The following procedure will be adhered to in all disputes
arising under this Agreement which the parties cannot resolve informally.  An
aggrieved party shall notify the Corporation, the Strategic Partners, the
Board of Directors, the Management Shareholders and the voting trustee for
the Employee Shareholders in writing of the nature of the dispute, with as
much detail as possible with respect thereto.  The Corporation (on behalf of
all of the parties hereto other than the aggrieved party), on the one hand,
and the aggrieved party, on the other, shall each appoint a representative to
meet (in person or by telephone) within seven days after the date of such
written notification, to attempt to reach an agreement about the nature of
the dispute and the corrective action to be taken by the respective parties.
 Similarly, if the Corporation is the aggrieved party, then it, on the one
hand, and the particular Shareholder(s) in respect of which it has the
dispute, on the other hand, shall appoint representatives to meet.  If the
respective representatives are unable to agree on corrective action, senior
executives of the parties to the dispute having authority to resolve the
dispute without the further consent of any other person shall meet or
otherwise act to facilitate an agreement within 14 days of such written
notification.  If such senior executives cannot resolve the dispute or agree
upon a written plan of corrective action to do so within seven days after
their initial meeting or other action, or if the agreed-upon completion dates
in the written plan of corrective action are exceeded, either party may
request arbitration as provided for below.  Except as otherwise specifically
provided, neither party to the dispute shall initiate arbitration unless and
until this dispute resolution procedure has been employed or waived.

              Either party to the dispute shall submit any dispute arising
from or relating to this Agreement, including any failure to agree on a
matter requiring agreement, and any claim based on or arising from an alleged
tort (except improper use or disclosure of the Corporation's proprietary
technology source code or as to ownership of the Corporation's intellectual
property), to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Schedule "4.9"
hereto.

              No Shareholder shall have any right to obtain or seek an
injunction or otherwise delay any Company Registration or Demand Registration
as a result of any controversy that may arise with respect to the
interpretation or implementation of Article 13 or Article 14.  Provided,
however, that the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall not
preclude any Shareholder from claiming damages for breach of the provisions
of this Agreement, provided that such Shareholder has otherwise complied with
the provisions of this Section 4.9.

                              OPERATION AND FINANCING

5.1           COMPOSITION AND COMPENSATION OF MANAGEMENT TEAM

              For so long as Greg Wolfond holds the office of Chief Executive
Officer of the Corporation, he shall have the sole discretion and authority
to select the senior management team of the Corporation, and its Subsidiaries
and its Affiliates, including, but not limited to, the Chief
<PAGE>
                                     - 44 -


Operating Officer, President, General Counsel, Secretary, Chief Technology
Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  Greg Wolfond also has the sole
discretion and authority to propose the compensation of each of the
individual members of such management teams, including but not limited to
salaries, bonuses, stock option grants and other incentive compensation
arrangements, provided that: (i) the aggregate compensation of such
management teams shall not exceed the amount set in a budget approved in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; (ii) any stock option
grants or other incentive compensation arrangements involving the issuance of
securities are granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan or other
arrangements approved in accordance with the terms hereof; and (iii) general
remuneration levels for designated management levels shall be set by a
Compensation Committee consisting of Greg Wolfond and two other directors (of
which at least one must be a nominee of a Strategic Partner, and none shall
be Management Directors) that are designated by him from time to time.

5.2           ACCOUNTANTS.

              The external accountants of the Corporation shall, at the
fiscal year end of the Corporation, prepare financial statements for such
fiscal year in accordance with GAAP (by no later than the 120th day after the
end of a fiscal year), including a balance sheet, a statement of earnings and
retained earnings and a statement of source and application of funds,
together with an audit report thereon.  Such financial statements shall also
include a reconciliation to applicable United States accounting standards, as
requested by any Strategic Partner, acting reasonably.  Unless otherwise
determined by the Board of Directors, but in any event so long as a Strategic
Partner (or its respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries) is a Shareholder, an
audit of the accounts of the Corporation shall be required.  If the Board of
Directors so determines, the parties hereto irrevocably direct the proper
officers of the Corporation to sign formal waivers of any requirement for an
audit on their behalf pursuant to Section 148 of the Act and/or to apply for
any regulatory approvals or discretionary relief in relation thereto.

5.3           INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

              The Corporation shall, in addition to the annual financial
statements contemplated by Section 5.2, prepare and distribute to the
Founding Shareholder, the Strategic Partners, the Management Shareholders and
the Non-Employee Directors interim unaudited (but full accrual) financial
statements for the first, second and third fiscal quarters of each fiscal
year, on or prior to the day which is 45 days after the day on which the
fiscal quarter ends. Such financial statements shall also include a
reconciliation to applicable United States accounting standards, as requested
by any Strategic Partner, acting reasonably.  Management of the Corporation
may, but shall not be obligated to, retain the external accountants of the
Corporation to review or otherwise assist in the preparation of such interim
financial statements.

              Prior to an Initial Public Offering, each of the Shareholders
covenants that he or it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, mortgage,
charge, create a security interest in, hypothecate, enter into any agreement
or option to or otherwise dispose of, encumber or deal with any of the
<PAGE>
                                     - 45 -


shares legally or beneficially owned by him, except in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.  The directors of the Corporation shall refuse to
permit the recording of a transfer of any shares which may have been
transferred otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement or if, as a result of such transfer, the number of Shareholders of
the Corporation (exclusive of persons who are in its employment and exclusive
of persons who having been formerly in the employment of the Corporation
were, while in that employment, and have continued after termination of their
employment to be, shareholders of the Corporation) would exceed 50 (two or
more persons who are the joint registered owners of one or more shares being
registered as one shareholder).

6.2           PERMITTED TRANSFERS

              Notwithstanding Section 6.1 hereof, but subject to the
provisions of Section 7.4(f) hereof, any or all of the Common Shares owned by
any of the Shareholders may be transferred by the Shareholders to a Permitted
Transferee of a Shareholder provided that such Permitted Transferee executes
and delivers to the Corporation a written acknowledgement substantially in
the form annexed hereto as Schedule "6.2" and satisfactory to the Corporation
that such transfer is in accordance with and subject to the terms of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding any such disposition, as between the disposing
Shareholder and the other parties hereto the disposing Shareholder shall
remain liable as principal debtor under all covenants on his part contained
herein and the disposing Shareholder agrees to unconditionally guarantee to
the other parties hereto the due performance by the acquiror of all
obligations imposed upon him hereunder.  The guarantee of the disposing
Shareholder is unconditional and may be enforced against him without
requiring the other parties hereto to first proceed against the acquiror or
to proceed against or exhaust any security held or to pursue any other remedy
whatsoever.  The disposing Shareholder hereby authorizes the other parties
hereto to renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time
for payment or any term relating to the performance of any such obligations
or to otherwise amend any provision hereof and hereby waives presentment,
protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonour, demand for performance and
notice of acceptance of this guarantee by the other parties hereto.
Provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, securities of the Corporation shall not be transferred if
such transfer would result in the Corporation ceasing to be a "private
company" (as defined in the Securities Act) or, if regulatory approval is
required, until all such approvals are received.

6.3           PERMITTED TRANSFERS FOR FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER.

              Notwithstanding Section 6.1 hereof, any or all of the Common
Shares or any partial interest owned by a member of the Founding Shareholder
may be transferred by any member of the Founding Shareholder to a Permitted
Transferee of any such Shareholder or to another member of the Founding
Shareholder provided that any such Permitted Transferee or member of the
Founding Shareholder is not a Competitor or a Competitor of BMO and executes
and delivers to the Corporation a written acknowledgement substantially in
the form annexed hereto as Schedule "6.2" and satisfactory to the Corporation
that such transfer is in accordance with and subject to the terms of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding any such disposition to a Permitted Transferee or
to a member of the Founding Shareholder, as between the disposing Shareholder
and the other parties hereto, the disposing Shareholder shall remain liable
as principal debtor under all covenants on his part contained herein and the
disposing Shareholder
<PAGE>
                                     - 46 -


agrees to unconditionally guarantee to the other parties hereto the due
performance by the acquiror of all obligations imposed upon him hereunder.
The guarantee of the disposing Shareholder is unconditional and may be
enforced against him without requiring the other parties hereto to first
proceed against the acquiror or to proceed against or exhaust any security
held or to pursue any other remedy whatsoever.  The disposing Shareholder
hereby authorizes the other parties hereto to renew, compromise, extend,
accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or any term relating to
the performance of any such obligations or to otherwise amend any provision
hereof and hereby waives presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of
dishonour, demand for performance and notice of acceptance of this guarantee
by the other parties hereto.  Provided, however, that notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section, securities of the
Corporation shall not be transferred if such transfer would result in the
Corporation ceasing to be a "private company" (as defined in the Securities
Act) or, if regulatory approval is required, until all such approvals are
received.

6.4           PLEDGE OF COMMON SHARES BY FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER.

              Notwithstanding Section 6.1 hereof, the Common Shares owned by
the Founding Shareholder may be pledged to fund BONA FIDE capital
contributions or loans made to the Corporation, provided that prior to the
creation of any such pledge the pledgee executes and delivers to the
Corporation and to the other Shareholders a written agreement satisfactory to
the Corporation which is addressed to the Corporation and the other
Shareholders wherein the pledgee agrees to assume all of the obligations of
the Founding Shareholder under this Agreement (including, without limitation,
those contemplated by Section  8.3) as if it were the Founding Shareholder
(with the exception of any matters, events, causes or liabilities pertaining
to the period prior to the time the pledgee becomes a Shareholder following
the exercise of any of its enforcement remedies in respect of any of the
Common Shares under Applicable Law) and covenants and agrees to be bound by
and subject to the terms, restrictions, provisions and conditions hereof,
including such terms, provisions and conditions relating to the disposition
of such Common Shares; and provided further that the pledgee is not a
Competitor or a Competitor of BMO.

7.1           MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEE SHAREHOLDERS - RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.

              Each Management Shareholder and Employee Shareholder covenants
that, prior to an Initial Public Offering, so long as the member of their
respective Immediate Family in respect of which they are the Principal is a
Shareholder, they will not, and they will cause all members of their
Immediate Family who have interests in such Shareholder not to, sell, assign,
transfer, pledge, mortgage, charge, create a security interest in,
hypothecate, enter into any agreement or option to or otherwise dispose of,
encumber or deal with any securities of or interests in such Shareholder,
except in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or except with the
prior written unanimous consent of the Board of Directors.

7.2           MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEE SHAREHOLDERS - PERMITTED TRANSFERS.

              Prior to an Initial Public Offering, each Management
Shareholder and Employee Shareholder covenants that, so long as the
Shareholder of which he is the Principal is a Shareholder, no additional
shares, or securities convertible into, or warrants or rights to acquire
additional shares or securities of such Shareholder or other interests in
such Shareholder will be issued or created without the prior written approval
of the Board of Directors, save and except to such Principal or to any member
of his Immediate Family (who is not a Competitor or a Competitor of BMO) in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such
Shareholder or member of his Immediate Family executes and delivers to the
Corporation a written acknowledgement substantially in the form annexed
hereto as Schedule "6.2" and satisfactory to the Corporation that such
transfer is in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement.
No such issuance shall, however, be permitted or be valid or effective until
written notice thereof shall have been given by such Shareholder to the
Corporation and, where shares are issued to any member of the Immediate
Family of such Shareholder (who is not a Competitor or a Competitor of BMO),
until the acquiror of those shares shall have entered into a written
agreement with the parties hereto agreeing not to sell, assign, transfer,
pledge, encumber, mortgage, charge, create a security interest in,
hypothecate, enter into any agreement or option to or otherwise dispose of or
deal with any of the said shares except to the Shareholder, the Principal or
the Immediate Family of such Principal, provided that the provisions of this
Article are complied with, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, by the acquiror thereof.  Each
Shareholder and Principal in question agrees to unconditionally guarantee to
the other parties bound hereby the due performance by the acquiror of all of
the obligations imposed upon him hereunder.  The guarantee of such
Shareholder and Principal is unconditional and may be enforced against either
one or both of such Shareholder and Principal without requiring the other
parties first to proceed against the acquiror or to proceed or exhaust any
security held or to pursue any other remedy whatsoever. Each Shareholder and
Principal hereby authorizes the other parties bound hereby to renew,
compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or
any term relating to the performance of any such obligations or to otherwise
amend the provisions hereof and hereby waives presentment, protest, notice of
protest, notice of dishonour, demand for performance and notice of acceptance
of this guarantee by the other parties bound hereby.

7.3           MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEE SHAREHOLDERS - PROHIBITION TO AMALGAMATE,
              MERGE, ETC.

              Prior to an Initial Public Offering, each Management
Shareholder and Employee Shareholder covenants that, so long as the
Shareholder of which he is the Principal is a Shareholder, he shall not cause
or permit such Shareholder to take part in any amalgamation, merger,
reorganization or similar proceeding, the effect of which would result in the
Principal in question and his Immediate Family owning less than 100% of the
issued shares or other interests of the resulting Shareholder from time to
time outstanding.

       (h)    For greater certainty, each of BMO, BAC, CSTC, Sonera, WFC, FTV

              original Shareholder (i.e., BMO, BAC, CSTC, Sonera, WFC, FTV
              and HSBC) shall remain liable hereunder as Principal.  For
              greater certainty, Citicorp shall, notwithstanding any such
              direct or indirect transfer, remain obligated as Principal of
              CSTC and of Permitted Transferees of CSTC as well.

              The provisions of Sections 7.1 and 7.2 and, except as provided
in Section 7.6 below, Section 7.3 hereof shall apply, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, to
each member of the Founding Shareholder with respect to their respective
Affiliates and Subsidiaries.  The members of the Founding Shareholder hereby
acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding that there is no restriction on
transfer of the shares of the Strategic Partners, the Founding Shareholder
shall not permit a transfer of the outstanding shares of the companies
forming part of the Founding Shareholder, except in compliance with the terms
hereof as if such transfer was a direct transfer of the Common Shares held by
the Founding Shareholder.

7.6           PERMISSIBLE INDIRECT TRANSFERS AND PERMISSIBLE AMALGAMATIONS FOR
              THE FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER AND THE STRATEGIC PARTNERS.

              For purposes of the application of Sections 7.2 and 7.3 to
Sections 7.4 and 7.5, a permissible amalgamation or a permissible issuance or
transfer of shares of an Affiliate or Subsidiary is one which results in the
successor Shareholder remaining an Affiliate or Permitted Transferee of the
Founding Shareholder or the Strategic Partner in question and in respect of

8.2           RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

              Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 6 but subject to the
provisions of Section 8.1, in the event that the Founding Shareholder wishes to
sell all or any part of its Common Shares, it may pursue such sale or sales
provided that it observes the following rules and procedures (the "Right of
First Offer"):

       (a)    The Founding Shareholder may research the market for the shares
              that it proposes to sell in order to determine a fair market value
              for such shares and whether market conditions are optimal for such
              sale. In pursuing such investigation, the Founding Shareholder
              shall comply with the procedures stated in Section 15.2. The
              Founding Shareholder shall also be permitted to discuss its
              proposed sale and its opinions as to fair market value with the
              Strategic Partners and to gauge their views and interest in
              purchasing such shares. The Founding Shareholder need not obtain
              an offer from a third party prior to implementing the following
              procedures.

       (b)    If, having completed its review, the Founding Shareholder decides
              to pursue such sale, it shall, by notice in writing (in this
              Section 8.2, the "Offer"), offer to sell such number of Common
              Shares desired to be sold (in this Section 8.2, the "Offered
              Shares"), to the Strategic Partners, (the "Eligible Strategic
              Partner(s)") at a specified price, which must be paid in cash
              (unless otherwise specified by the Founding Shareholder), and upon
              specified terms and conditions as set out in the Offer (in this
              Section 8.2, the "Offer Price").  The Offer shall be open for
              acceptance by written notice delivered to the Founding Shareholder
              for a period of 15 business days, or if participation in the
              transaction requires approval of the board of directors of any
              Strategic Partner, up to 30 business days (in this Section 8.2,
              the "Notice Period").  If the Offer is accepted by at least one of
              the Eligible Strategic Partners during the Notice Period, then the
              Founding Shareholder shall sell, and those of the Eligible
              Strategic Partners which accepted the Offer (in this Section 8.2,
              the "Purchaser(s)") shall purchase all, but not less than all, of
              the Offered Shares at the Offer Price.  If more than one of the
              Eligible Strategic Partners has elected to purchase the Offered
              Shares, the Offered Shares shall be allocated among the Purchasers
              in proportion to their respective ownership of the Common Shares
              as at the date of delivery of the Offer, calculated based on the
              total number of Common Shares held by the Eligible Strategic
              Partners.  If, before the expiry of the Notice Period, none of the
              Eligible Strategic Partners accept the Offer, then the Founding
              Shareholder shall be entitled to seek or receive an offer from any
              person dealing at arm's length with the Founding Shareholder for
              the purchase of all or part of the Common Shares so offered for
              sale.

8.3           RECEIPT OF THIRD PARTY WRITTEN OFFER.

              If the Founding Shareholder has complied with the provisions of
Section 8.2 and receives a BONA FIDE written offer (in this Article 8, the
"Third Party Offer"), from any person dealing at arm's length with the Founding
Shareholder (in this Article 8, the "Offeror"), to purchase all or any part of
the Common Shares, which the Founding Shareholder wishes to

<PAGE>
                                     - 51 -

accept, then, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 6, the Founding
Shareholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable within
30 business days following receipt by it of the Third Party Offer, to: (i)
sell such Common Shares pursuant to the Third Party Offer; and, at its
option, (ii) to cause the other Shareholders (other than the Strategic
Partners and subject to Sections 8.4 and 8.5, as the case may be) to sell a
PRO RATA number of Common Shares to the Offeror by delivering a written
notice (in this Article 8, the "Notice") to the other Shareholders indicating
that it wishes to accept the Third Party Offer (and, if applicable, the
maximum number of shares of the Corporation that the Founding Shareholder
proposes to sell), together with a copy of the Third Party Offer, and that it
intends to exercise its drag-along rights hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Founding Shareholder shall not be entitled to accept the Third
Party Offer unless (a) the proposed purchase price per Common Share is equal
to or greater than the Offer Price, as defined in Section 8.2; (b) the Third
Party Offer is received by the Founding Shareholder within 120 days following
the expiry of the Notice Period; and (c) the proposed purchase is completed
within 60 days from the end of such 120 day period, failing which the
provisions of Section 8.2 shall apply again, and so on from time to time.
The Strategic Partners shall be entitled to require the Founding Shareholder
to provide sufficient information to them concerning such transaction for
them to determine that the Founding Shareholder has complied with its
obligations pursuant to Sections 8.2 and 8.3.

8.4           OFFER FOR ALL, OR ANY AND ALL, COMMON SHARES.

              In the event that the Third Party Offer is for the purchase of all
(or any and all) of the Common Shares and the Founding Shareholder elects to
exercise its drag-along rights by delivering the Notice to the other
Shareholders within the aforementioned period, all of the Shareholders shall,
subject to the provisions of this Article 8, do all things necessary and sign
such documents as are required to cause the Third Party Offer to be accepted
and: (i) as to the Common Shares held by the Strategic Partners and their
respective Affiliates and Subsidiaries, such Shareholders shall have the right,
but not the obligation, by written notice to the Corporation, the Offeror and
the Founding Shareholder, within 25 business days following receipt of the
Notice, to elect to sell all or part of their Common Shares under the Third
Party Offer; and (ii) as to the other Shareholders, such Shareholders shall sell
all of the Common Shares legally or beneficially owned by them to the Offeror.
Provided, however, that if the Founding Shareholder tenders less than all of the
Common Shares held by it to the Third Party Offer, the other Shareholders
required or electing to sell, as the case may be, shall only be compelled to
sell a PRO RATA portion of their Common Shares but shall remain entitled to
choose to sell a greater number of Common Shares pursuant to the Third Party
Offer.  In the event a Shareholder does not fulfil his obligation to sell as
provided for herein, such Shareholder hereby irrevocably appoints the Chief
Executive Officer of the Corporation, from time to time, as his attorney, in
accordance with the POWERS OF ATTORNEY ACT (Ontario), to execute all such
documents and to do all such things as may be necessary to accept the Offer and
to complete such transaction.

8.5           OFFER FOR LESS THAN ALL COMMON SHARES.

              In the event the Third Party Offer is to purchase less than all of
the Common Shares, the Founding Shareholder shall have the right, but not the
obligation, exercisable within 30 business days following receipt by it of the
Third Party Offer to deliver a written notice to the


<PAGE>
                                     - 52 -

other Shareholders indicating that it wishes to accept the Third Party Offer
and, if elected by the Founding Shareholder, to cause all other Shareholders
(other than the Strategic Partners and their respective Affiliates and
Subsidiaries) to accept the Third Party Offer on a PRO RATA basis with the
Founding Shareholder.

              The Strategic Partners shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to participate in the Third Party Offer with the Founding
Shareholder in the proposed transaction in accordance with the following
provisions.  Each Strategic Partner that desires to participate in such
transaction may do so by delivery of written notice (in this Section 8.5, a "Tag
Along Notice") to the Founding Shareholder indicating a desire to participate in
the Third Party Offer and specifying a maximum number of shares desired to be
sold, which shall not be greater than their pro-rata entitlement calculated in
the manner set forth in the fourth paragraph of this Section 8.5, and indicating
whether it desires to participate in the "Second Round" contemplated below on or
prior to the date which is ten business days after the date of delivery of the
Third Party Offer by the Founding Shareholder.

              All Shareholders participating in the transaction contemplated by
the Third Party Offer shall participate simultaneously with and conditional upon
the completion of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated therein and
for the same consideration per share and otherwise on the same terms and
conditions as stated in the Third Party Offer.

              All of the Shareholders (including the Strategic Partners and the
Founding Shareholder, but only to the extent of the maximum number of shares
specified by them, respectively) who accept (either voluntarily or otherwise)
the Third Party Offer shall thereupon be obligated to sell that number of one or
more classes of shares of the Corporation held by them determined as follows:
each Shareholder shall sell that number of shares of a particular class of
shares of the Corporation which is the subject of the Third Party Offer as is
equal to the product obtained by multiplying: (a) the number of shares of such
class which is the subject of the Third Party Offer, by (b) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of shares of such class held by the Shareholder
and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of outstanding shares of
such class, all determined as at the date of the Third Party Offer.

              In the event a Shareholder does not fulfil his obligation to sell
as provided for herein, such Shareholder hereby irrevocably appoints the Chief
Executive Officer of the Corporation, from time to time, as his attorney, in
accordance with the POWERS OF ATTORNEY ACT (Ontario), to execute all such
documents and to do all such things as may be necessary to accept the Third
Party Offer and to complete such transaction.  Furthermore, in such event, the
provisions of Article 10 of this Agreement shall not apply.

              If the Third Party Offer contemplated by this Section 8.5 requires
the delivery of a number of Common Shares in excess of the number of Common
Shares to be sold as determined by the fourth paragraph of this Section 8.5
(such excess of Common Shares referred to in this Section 8.5 as the
"Unallocated Shares"), the Founding Shareholder shall give notice to those
Strategic Partners which have elected to participate in the Third Party Offer
(the "Unallocated Share Notice"), specifying such excess number of Common Shares
and the Strategic Partners who elected to participate in the Second Round (as
defined below) and whether the Founding Shareholder desires to participate in
the Second Round, and the following provisions shall apply:

<PAGE>
                                     - 53 -

       (a)    Each of the Founding Shareholder and those of the Strategic
              Partners which shall have elected to participate in the Third
              Party Offer (in this Section 8.5, collectively, the "Sellers") and
              which shall have elected to participate in the Third Party Offer
              to the fullest extent of their PRO-RATA entitlement (i.e. they
              have not limited their participation to a number of shares less
              than they would have been entitled to sell pursuant to the
              application of the numerical formula outlined above) and, in the
              case of the Strategic Partners which have indicated an intention
              to participate in the "Second Round" (as defined below) in their
              tag-along notice (collectively with the Founding Shareholder if it
              desires to participate in the Second Round, the "Second Round
              Sellers"), shall be entitled, by delivery of written notice (the
              "Participation Notice") to the Founding Shareholder within five
              business days following the delivery of the Unallocated Share
              Notice indicating that a Second Round allocation is required, to
              sell additional shares to the Offeror (such process hereinafter in
              this Section 8.5 referred to as the "Second Round").

       (b)    The Participation Notice shall specify a number of additional
              Common Shares that the particular Strategic Partner wishes to sell
              on the terms specified in the Third Party Offer.

       (c)    The number of additional Common Shares that each of the Second
              Round Sellers shall sell pursuant to the Third Party Offer shall
              be determined as follows:

              (i)     Each such Second Round Seller shall sell a number of
                      additional Common Shares equal to the lesser of: (I) its
                      PRO RATA share of the number of Unallocated Shares
                      (calculated with reference to the relative holdings of
                      equity shares of the Corporation as at the date of the
                      Third Party Offer represented by the Second Round
                      Sellers); and (II) the maximum number of shares specified
                      in the applicable Participation Notice (or, in the case
                      of the Founding Shareholder, since it does not deliver a
                      Participating Notice, such maximum number of shares that
                      it may determine);

              (ii)    The remaining Unallocated Shares, if any, shall be
                      allocated  among those Second Round Sellers which shall
                      not yet have been allocated the maximum number of shares
                      that they desire to sell, by one or more repetitions of
                      the Second Round procedures outlined above, until the
                      first to occur of: (I) the full allocation of the
                      Unallocated Shares; or (II) all Second Round Shareholders
                      having been allocated the maximum number of Common Shares
                      specified by them. In the latter case, any remaining
                      Unallocated Shares may be sold by the Founding
                      Shareholder, should it determine that the third party
                      purchaser is unwilling to complete the transaction unless
                      all Unallocated Shares are made available for sale.

8.6           TERMS OF SALE BY SHAREHOLDERS.

              In the event that the other Shareholders become obligated or elect
(as the case may be) to sell all or part of their Common Shares pursuant to the
operation of this Article 8, the

<PAGE>
                                     - 54 -

completion of such transaction(s) shall be conditional upon the completion of
the purchase and sale contemplated in the Third Party Offer and upon each
such Shareholder selling such shares on the same terms and receiving the same
consideration per share as the Founding Shareholder is receiving under the
Third Party Offer.  For greater certainty, on a sale of shares pursuant to
this Article 8, each Shareholder selling shares shall provide the Offeror
with such reasonable and customary covenants, representations and warranties
relating to the shares being sold by the particular Shareholder as well as
the nature and status of, and the substance of any default under, the
contractual arrangements between the particular Shareholder and the
Corporation or their respective Affiliates and Subsidiaries as shall be
generally consistent with those equivalent representations, warranties and
covenants given by the Founding Shareholder to the Offeror.  Such
representations, warranties and covenants shall be given on a several basis,
and not jointly or jointly and severally.

8.7           APPLICABILITY OF TAG-ALONG RIGHTS.

              In the event a Third Party Offer is received by the Founding
Shareholder and the Founding Shareholder elects to sell the Common Shares which
are the subject matter of such Third Party Offer and does not elect to exercise
its drag-along rights hereunder, the provisions of Article 10 shall apply.

8.8           SALES TO COMPETITORS.

              Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 8, no sale of
less than all of the then issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation shall

Competitor of BMO; and (b) unless the Offeror executes and delivers to the
Corporation a written acknowledgement substantially in the form annexed hereto
as Schedule "6.2" and satisfactory to the Corporation that such transfer is in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

8.9           APPLICATION OF ARTICLE 8 TO STRATEGIC PARTNERS.

              For greater certainty, the Offeror shall have no right under this
Article 8 to require the Strategic Partners or any of their respective Permitted
Transferees to sell any shares, including Common Shares, held by such Persons
pursuant to any Third Party Offer.  Also, for greater certainty, any sale of
Common Shares pursuant to this Article 8 to any Strategic Partner shall be
subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth in Section 1.17(b).

9.2           OFFER TO FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER AND THE STRATEGIC PARTNERS.

              If any Shareholder other than the Founding Shareholder and the
Strategic Partners (hereinafter in this Article 9 referred to as the "Offeror")
receives a BONA FIDE cash offer (hereinafter in this Article 9 called the
"Offer") from a Management Shareholder, Non-Employee Director or Employee
Shareholder to purchase all, or any part of, the Common Shares beneficially
owned by him, which is acceptable to him, he shall, by notice in writing
(hereinafter in this Article 9 called the "Second Offer"), offer to sell such
Common Shares (hereinafter in this Article 9 called the "Purchased Shares") to
the Founding Shareholder and to the Strategic Partners at the same price, which
must be paid in cash, and upon the same terms and conditions as are contained in
the Offer.  Such notice shall be accompanied by a true copy of the Offer and an
affidavit of the Offeror attesting whether, and if so to what extent, there are

one or more of the Strategic Partners, as the case may be, for a period of 15

9.3           PURCHASE OF SHARES BY FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER AND THE STRATEGIC
              PARTNERS.

              If the Second Offer is accepted by at least one of the Founding
Shareholder and/or the Strategic Partners, as the case may be, then the Offeror

Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partners which shall have accepted the
Second Offer, as the case may be, (hereinafter in this Article 9, the
"Purchaser(s)"), shall purchase, all, and not less than all, of the Purchased
Shares (if more than one of the Strategic Partners and the Founding Shareholder
have elected to purchase, the Purchased Shares shall be allocated PRO RATA to
their respective beneficial ownership of Common Shares as at the date of

Second Offer.  Unless otherwise agreed by them, the members of the Founding
Shareholder shall purchase the Purchased Shares to be purchased by them pro rata
to their respective beneficial ownership of Common Shares at the date of
delivery of the Second Offer.

9.4           SALE PURSUANT TO ORIGINAL OFFER.

              If, during the time limited therefor, none of the Founding

the sale took place in accordance with the Offer (except as to the date of

              Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 9, no sale of
Common Shares shall be permitted to be made pursuant to this Article 9:

              such approvals are received;

       (b)    to a Competitor or a Competitor of BMO; and

10.1          APPLICATION.

              The provisions of this Article 10 shall apply prior to an Initial
Public Offering, but shall not apply: (i) to a sale by the Founding Shareholder

10.2          TAG-ALONG RIGHT.

              Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 6, but subject to the

hereto as Schedule "6.2" and satisfactory to the Corporation that such
transfer is in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and
provided further that if the Founding Shareholder or any member of the

pursuant to this Section 10.2, the proposed vendor shall, at least 25
business days prior to the date specified for completion of the transaction
of purchase and sale (in this Article 10, the "Offer"), give written notice
(in this Article 10, called a "Disposition Notice") to the other
Shareholder(s), exclusive of the Employee Shareholders, (in this Article 10,
the "Remaining Shareholder(s)") stating the nature and terms of the proposed
transaction, the maximum and/or minimum (as applicable) number of shares of a
particular class desired or required by the proposed purchaser  and the
consideration for such sale in reasonable detail together with a statement of
the maximum number of shares that the Founding Shareholder proposes to sell
and stating that each Remaining Shareholder has (and the Remaining
Shareholder(s) shall then have) the option to participate with the Founding
Shareholder in the transaction contemplated by the Offer in accordance with
the following provisions.

              Each Remaining Shareholder that desires to participate in the
Offer may do so by delivery of written notice (in this Article 10, a "Tag-Along
Notice") to the Founding Shareholder indicating a desire to participate in the
Offer and specifying a maximum number of shares desired to be sold, and
indicating whether it desires to participate in the "Second Round" contemplated
below, on or prior to the date which is ten business days after the date of
delivery of the Disposition Notice by the Founding Shareholder.  All
Shareholders (including the Founding Shareholder) participating in the Offer (in
this Article 10, the "Sellers") shall participate simultaneously with and
conditional upon the completion of the transaction of purchase and sale
contemplated in the Offer and for the same consideration per share and otherwise
on the same terms and conditions as stated in the Offer.

              Each Seller shall initially be entitled (and obligated) to sell up
to such number of shares of a particular class as is determined based on their
respective PRO RATA ownership of equity shares of the Corporation in accordance
with the following calculation, not to exceed the maximum number of shares of
the particular class specified in their Tag-Along Notice.

              For the purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph, the PRO
RATA SALE  entitlement of a particular Seller shall be calculated as follows.
Each Seller shall be allocated that number of shares of a particular class of
shares of the Corporation which is the subject of the Offer as is equal to the
product obtained by multiplying: (a) the number of shares of such class which is
the subject of the Offer by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of shares of such class held by the Seller and the denominator of which is the
aggregate number of outstanding shares of such class, all determined as at the
date of the Offer.  In the event a Seller does not fulfil its obligation to sell
as provided for herein, such Shareholder hereby irrevocably appoints the Chief
Executive Officer of the Corporation, from time to time, as its attorney, in
accordance with the POWERS OF ATTORNEY ACT (Ontario), to execute all such
documents and to do all such things as may be necessary to accept the Offer and
to complete such transaction.

              If the Offer contemplated by this Article 10 requires the delivery
of a number of shares in excess of the number of shares to be sold as determined
by the immediately preceding

<PAGE>
                                     - 58 -

paragraph (such excess number of shares referred to in this Section 10.2 as
the "Unallocated Shares"), the Founding Shareholder shall give notice to
those Sellers which have elected to participate in the transaction
contemplated by the Offer (in this Section, the "Unallocated Share Notice"),
specifying such excess number of Common Shares and those Strategic Partners
who elect to participate in the Second Round (as defined below) and whether
the Founding Shareholder desires to participate in the Second Round. The
following provisions shall apply to the Unallocated Shares:

       (a)    Each of the Sellers which shall have elected to participate in the
              Offer to the fullest extent of their PRO RATA entitlement (I.E.
              they have not limited their participation to a number of shares
              less than they would have been entitled to sell pursuant to the
              application of the numerical formula outlined above), as outlined
              above, and which have (other than the Founding Shareholder)
              indicated an intention to participate in the "Second Round" (as
              defined below) in their Tag-Along Notice (inclusive of the
              Founding Shareholder should it elect to participate in the Second
              Round, collectively referred to as the "Second Round Sellers")
              shall be entitled, by delivery of written notice (the
              "Participation Notice") to the Founding Shareholder within five
              business days following the delivery of the Unallocated Share
              Notice, to sell additional shares to the Offeror (such process
              hereinafter in this Section 10.2 referred to as the "Second
              Round").

       (b)    The Participation Notice shall specify a number of additional
              shares of each class that the particular Second Round Seller
              wishes to sell on the terms specified in the Offer.

       (c)    The number of additional shares that the Founding Shareholder
              (should it so desire to participate in the Second Round) and each
              other Second Round Seller that shall have delivered a
              Participation Notice shall sell pursuant to the Offer shall be
              determined as follows:

              (i)     Each such Second Round Seller shall sell a number of
                      additional shares equal to the lesser of: (I) its PRO
                      RATA share of the number of Unallocated Shares
                      (calculated with reference to the relative holdings of
                      equity shares of the Corporation as at the date of the
                      Offer representing the Second Round Sellers); and (II)
                      the maximum number of shares specified in the applicable
                      Participation Notice (or, in the case of the Founding
                      Shareholder, since it does not deliver a Participation
                      Notice, such maximum number of shares that it may
                      determine);

              (ii)    The remaining Unallocated Shares, if any, shall be
                      allocated  among those Second Round Sellers which shall
                      not yet have been allocated the maximum number of shares
                      that they desire to sell, by one or more repetitions of
                      the Second Round procedures outlined above, until the
                      first to occur of: (I) the full allocation of the
                      Unallocated Shares; or (II) all Second Round Shareholders
                      having been allocated the maximum number of shares
                      specified by them. In the latter case, any remaining
                      Unallocated Shares may be sold by the Founding
                      Shareholder, should it determine that

<PAGE>
                                     - 59 -

                      the Offeror is unwilling to complete the transaction
                      unless all Unallocated Shares are made available for sale.

10.3          EFFECT OF EXERCISE OF TAG-ALONG RIGHT.

              For greater certainty, if a Remaining Shareholder gives a
              Tag-Along Notice, then:

       (a)    he or it shall be obligated to sell the shares specified in his
              Tag-Along Notice (and Participation Notice, if applicable) upon
              the terms specified in the Offer to the proposed purchaser under
              the Offer, conditional upon and contemporaneously with the
              completion of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated in
              the Offer; and

       (b)    the Founding Shareholder agrees with the Remaining Shareholder(s)
              that it shall not sell any of its shares under such Offer unless
              payment for the shares of each of the Remaining Shareholders who
              gave a Tag-Along Notice (and Participation Notice, if applicable)
              which are to be included in such sale is made in accordance with
              the terms of the Offer.

10.4          TERMS OF SALE BY SHAREHOLDERS

              On any sale of shares pursuant to this Article 10, each
Shareholder selling shares shall provide the third party purchaser under the
Offer with such reasonable and customary covenants, representations and
warranties relating to the shares being sold by the particular Shareholder as
well as the nature and status of, and the substance of any default under, the
contractual arrangements between the particular Shareholder and the Corporation
or their respective Affiliates and Subsidiaries as shall be generally consistent
with the covenants, representations and warranties given by the Founding
Shareholder to such third party subscriber.  Such representations, warranties
and covenants shall be given on a several basis, and not jointly or jointly and
severally.

                                     ARTICLE 11
                                 PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHTS

11.1          PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT.

              Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, if the Corporation
desires to issue any Common Shares or securities convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Shares or any other equity securities or other
securities carrying rights, options or warrants to acquire such securities or
shares (in this Article 11, the "Offered Securities"), it shall offer, by
written notice (in this Article 11, an "Offer") to each of the Founding
Shareholder and the Strategic Partners (in this Article 11, an "Offeree") the
number and type of securities (in this Article 11, the "Offered Securities")
which the Corporation desires to issue (the "Proposed Issuance") and the cash
price which the Corporation desires to receive per Offered Security (in this
Article 11, the "Offered Price").

11.2          OFFER TO THE FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER AND THE STRATEGIC PARTNERS.

              The number of Offered Securities which shall be offered to each of
the Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partners, as the case may be, for
purchase at the Offered Price shall be the number of Offered Securities which,
if purchased by the particular Shareholder, would maintain its proportionate
equity ownership interest in the Corporation as at the date of the Offer
(calculated on a fully-diluted basis). The Offer shall set out the aggregate
number of Common Shares, securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common
Shares, or any other equity securities carrying rights, options or warrants to
acquire such securities or shares outstanding at the close of business on the
date of the Offer and the number of Offered Securities available for purchase by
the Offeree, shall limit the time within which the Offer may be accepted (which
time shall not be less than 20 business days from the date of the Offer) and
shall limit the time within which any purchase resulting from acceptance of the
Offer must be completed (which time shall not be less than 35 business days nor
more than 60 business days after the date of the Offer) and shall fix the time,
date and place for completion of any purchase resulting from acceptance of the
Offer.

              If an Offeree does not accept the Offer, or accepts it in respect
of less than its prescribed share of the Offered Securities: (i) the unclaimed
Offered Securities shall be first offered, for a period of 15 business days, in
the same relative proportions as the initial allocations referred to above, to
those of the Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partners who shall have
subscribed for the full amount of the Offered Securities to which they were
entitled; and (ii) the balance of the unclaimed Offered Securities may then be
offered to such third-party persons (acting at arm's length with the Founding
Shareholder and the Strategic Partners and provided that any such third-party
person is not directly, or indirectly through its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, a
Competitor or a Competitor of BMO) as may be determined by the Board of
Directors at prices and on terms no less favourable to the Corporation than the
Offer;  provided, however, that such third-party persons become subject to the
Shareholders' Agreement (including, without limitation, by delivering a written
acknowledgement substantially in the form annexed hereto as Schedule "11.4") on
terms substantially equivalent to the rights and obligations of the Management
Shareholders (i.e. they should not be afforded the governance powers of the
Strategic Partners).  The provisions of Section 1.13 shall apply to the
amendment and restatement of the Shareholders' Agreement to reflect such
additional Shareholder, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.  Any such issuances to such third
party subscriber shall be completed within 60 days of the determination of the
number of securities to be offered to the third party subscriber, failing which
the provisions of Sections 11.1 and 11.2 shall again apply thereto and so on
from time to time.

11.3          PURCHASE BY OFFEREE.

              If the Offeree accepts the Offer in accordance with the terms
hereof, it shall be bound to purchase, take up and pay for, and the
Corporation shall be bound to issue, the Offered Securities to be purchased
by the Offeree in accordance with the foregoing provisions hereof, and the
Corporation shall promptly advise the Offeree of the number of the Offered
Securities to be purchased by the Offeree, whereupon the Corporation shall be
obliged to deliver to the Offeree at the time, date and place set out in the
Offer, certificates representing the Offered Securities registered in the
Offeree's name in a number equal to the number of the Offered

<PAGE>
                                     - 61 -


Securities to be purchased by it against payment made in full in cash of the
aggregate consideration therefor.  Unless otherwise agreed by them, the
members of the Founding Shareholder shall purchase the Offered Securities to
be purchased by them PRO RATA to their respective beneficial ownership of
Common Shares at the date of delivery of the Offer.

11.4          APPLICATION.

              The provisions of this Article 11 shall apply only prior to an
Initial Public Offering and, except as provided in Sections 11.5, 11.6 and 11.7,
shall not apply in respect of any of the following:

       (a)    Offered Securities declared and/or paid by the Corporation as
              dividends or distributions on its outstanding securities;

       (b)    Offered Securities of the Corporation issued as consideration for
              the purchase by the Corporation of property (whether tangible or
              intangible) in an arm's length transaction, provided that the
              person to whom securities of the Corporation are so issued
              executes and delivers to the Corporation a written acknowledgement
              substantially in the form annexed hereto as Schedule "11.4";

       (c)    Offered Securities issued or granted by the Corporation in the
              ordinary and normal course of business to any eligible person
              pursuant to the Stock Option Plan (including the issuance of
              Common Shares or other equity securities upon the exercise of
              stock options issued thereunder) (including, in each case, the
              issuance of Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of the
              subscription options or commitments contemplated therein),
              provided that such person, if not already a party hereto, executes
              and delivers to the Corporation a written acknowledgement
              substantially in the form annexed hereto as Schedule "11.4", as
              amended to reflect the status of the subscriber as a Non-Employee
              Director, Management Shareholder, Employee Shareholder or
              Strategic Partner (subject to Section 1.13), as the case may be;

       (d)    Offered Securities issued to another Shareholder pursuant to the
              exercise of their subscription right contemplated in Sections
              11.1, 11.2, 11.5, 11.6 or 11.7;

       (e)    securities of the Corporation issued upon the exchange or
              conversion of exchangeable or convertible securities of the
              Corporation or upon the exercise of rights, options or warrants of
              the Corporation (collectively, "Convertible Securities"), in each
              case in respect of which the provisions of this Article 11 applied
              at the time of the issuance of such Convertible Securities; and

       (f)    Offered Securities issued to a new Strategic Partner.

11.5          SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO BMO'S PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT.

BASIC PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              BMO shall have the benefit of the pre-emptive right contemplated
by Sections 11.1 and 11.2 (the "Basic Pre-emptive Right") (subject to the
provisions of Section 11.4) during the period commencing on the date hereof and
terminating on the earliest to occur of: (i) an Initial Public Offering; and
(ii) the date (in this Section 11.5, the "Termination Date") which is the later
of the BMO Secondary Anniversary and the termination of the BMO Continuing
Alliance.  The Basic Pre-emptive Right shall apply notwithstanding any dilution
in the equity ownership interest in the Corporation maintained by BMO from time
to time.

AMENDED BASIC PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              From and after the Termination Date (but, for greater certainty,
only prior to an Initial Public Offering), BMO shall continue to benefit from
the provisions of Sections 11.1 and 11.2; however, such provisions shall, for
purposes of BMO's rights thereunder, be subject to the following amendments
(such amended subscription rights are hereby referred to as the "Amended Basic
Pre-emptive Right"):

              (i)     the right of BMO to subscribe for securities of the
                      Corporation shall be triggered only by the issuance of
                      equity shares of the Corporation (whether directly or
                      upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of Convertible
                      Securities constituting such equity shares) which would
                      result in a dilution of BMO's holdings of Common Shares
                      below 11.6% of the number of issued and outstanding
                      equity shares of the Corporation;

              (ii)    the number of Common Shares which BMO would be entitled
                      to purchase shall be such number of Common Shares not to
                      exceed that number which would result in BMO holding
                      11.6% of the total number of issued and outstanding
                      equity shares after the subject transaction is completed;

              (iii)   the Common Shares purchased by BMO pursuant to this
                      Section 11.5 shall be issued at the price per Common
                      Share (the "Designated Price") that the Common Shares are
                      issued or subscribed for pursuant to the subject
                      transaction (if applicable) unless the subject
                      transaction is the exchange, conversion or exercise of a
                      Convertible Security to which the provisions of Sections
                      11.1 and 11.2 hereof applied at the time of issuance
                      thereof; in which case the Designated Price shall be the
                      fair market value of the Common Shares at such time, as
                      determined by the Board of Directors acting reasonably;

              (iv)    the Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right shall apply with
                      respect to a Proposed Issuance contemplated by Section
                      11.1 notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 11.4(d),
                      (e) and (f) (however, for greater certainty, the Amended
                      Basic Pre-emptive Right shall not apply in the
                      circumstances contemplated by Sections 11.4(a), (b) and
                      (c)); and

<PAGE>
                                     - 63 -


              (v)     the Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right shall terminate and
                      shall thereafter cease and be of no further effect if BMO
                      does not purchase the maximum number of Common Shares
                      purchasable by it so as to maintain a proportional
                      holding of 11.6% of the number of issued and outstanding
                      equity shares of the Corporation.

SUPPLEMENTAL SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT

              During the term of the BMO Continuing Alliance (but prior to an
Initial Public Offering), without duplication of the Basic Pre-emptive Right or
the Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right, BMO shall have an additional right to
subscribe for Common Shares of the Corporation (the "Supplemental Subscription
Right").  The Supplemental Subscription Right shall apply so as to enable BMO to
maintain a holding of 11.6% of the then issued and outstanding equity shares of
the Corporation during the BMO Continuing Alliance (the Amended Basic
Pre-emptive Right has the same effect thereafter).  Pursuant to the Supplemental
Subscription Right: (i) if the Corporation issues Offered Securities; and (ii)
if applicable, BMO subscribes for the maximum number of Offered Securities
available to it in accordance with the provisions of Sections 11.1 and 11.2; and
(iii) the result of such transaction(s) (if applicable, in conjunction with
other issuances pursuant to Sections 11.1, 11.2, 11.6 and 11.7) is that BMO's
relative shareholding is diluted below 11.6% of the number of issued and
outstanding equity shares of the Corporation, then BMO shall be entitled, by
delivery of written notice to the Corporation by no later than 15th business day
after notice of the issuance of the Offered Securities in question is delivered
by the Corporation to BMO, to acquire that number of Common Shares of the
Corporation which is sufficient to maintain BMO's relative shareholding at 11.6%
of the number of issued and outstanding equity shares of the Corporation for a
subscription price per share equal to the Designated Price.

              BMO's Supplemental Subscription Right shall apply notwithstanding
the provisions of Sections 11.4(d), (e) and (f) but shall not apply in the
circumstances contemplated by Sections 11.4(a), (b) and (c).

BOARD REPRESENTATION PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              In addition to (but without duplication of) BMO's Basic
Pre-emptive Right, Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right and Supplemental Subscription
Right, if, at any time prior to an Initial Public Offering, as a result of any
issuance of equity shares by the Corporation (including pursuant to ANY of the
events that would otherwise be excluded by Section 11.4), BMO would cease to be
entitled to nominate a member of the Board of Directors in accordance with
Article 4 hereof (i.e., BMO would cease to hold at least 4% (or 3%, as the case
may be) of the issued and outstanding Common Shares), then BMO shall have the
right to subscribe (the "Board Representation Pre-emptive Right"), during such
reasonable period of time, not to exceed 30 days, thereafter as the Board of
Directors shall prescribe, for such number of Common Shares sufficient to enable
it to retain its right of nomination, at a price per Common Share equal to the
Designated Price.

              The Board Representation Pre-emptive Right shall terminate and be
of no further effect if at any time BMO ceases to be entitled to nominate a
member of the Board of Directors

<PAGE>
                                     - 64 -


in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 and fails to exercise its
Board Representation Pre-emptive Right so as to retain its board nominee.

EFFECT OF MERGERS AND SIMILAR TRANSACTIONS

              BMO acknowledges and agrees that its rights under this Section
11.5, described under the headings "Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right" and
"Supplemental Subscription Right", shall terminate immediately upon the
completion of the merger of BMO and one or more entities which together result
in a person with more than 2 times the assets of BMO immediately prior to such
transaction, or series of transactions which effect such merger, provided
however, that such termination of rights shall not apply to, and shall not be
applicable in the context of, the merger of BMO as aforesaid with any bank
listed in Schedule I of the Bank Act as at August 2, 1999.

CALCULATING PERCENTAGE OWNERSHIP

              For the purposes of determining BMO's subscription entitlement
from time to time pursuant to this Section 11.5, as described under the headings
"Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right" and "Supplemental Subscription Right", BMO's
percentage holding of equity shares of the Corporation (both before and after
the pre-emptive right is exercised) shall be calculated by excluding from the
issued and outstanding capital of the Corporation the aggregate number of Common
Shares previously issued in the circumstances contemplated by Sections 11.4(a),
11.4(b), and 11.4(c).  For greater certainty, shares of the Corporation issued
pursuant to the Stock Option Plan shall not attract pre-emptive rights (other
than the Board Representation Pre-emptive Rights) and, for purposes of this
Article 11 only, such shares shall not be recognized for purposes of calculating
relative shareholding either before or after the transaction.

11.6          SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO BAC'S PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT.

BASIC PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              BAC shall have the benefit of the Basic Pre-emptive Right
contemplated by Sections 11.1 and 11.2 at all times until the earliest of: (i)
an Initial Public Offering; and (ii) the date (the "BAC Termination Date") which
is the later of: (a) February 1, 2001; and (b) the termination of the Continuing
Alliance (as defined in the BAC Technology License Agreement - hereinafter
referred to as the "BAC Continuing Alliance").  BAC's Basic Pre-emptive Right
shall apply regardless of its relative ownership of shares of the Corporation.

AMENDED BASIC PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              From and after the BAC Termination Date but prior to an Initial
Public Offering, provided that BAC shall have purchased the BAC Option Shares
BAC shall, in lieu of its Basic Pre-emptive Right, have the benefit of an
Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right on the same terms and conditions as apply to BMO
pursuant to Section 11.5, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, except that the proportional holding
that BAC shall be entitled to maintain shall be only 8.5% of the issued and
outstanding equity shares of the Corporation.

                                     - 65 -


SUPPLEMENTAL SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT

              During the term of the BAC Continuing Alliance (but prior to an
Initial Public Offering), provided that BAC shall have purchased the BAC Option
Shares, without duplication of the Basic Pre-emptive Right or the Amended Basic
Pre-emptive Right, BAC shall have a Supplemental Subscription Right on the same
terms and conditions as apply to BMO pursuant to Section 11.5, MUTATIS MUTANDIS,
except that BAC shall be entitled to maintain a holding of only 8.5% of the
issued and outstanding equity shares of the Corporation.

BOARD REPRESENTATION PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              In addition to (but without duplication of) BAC's Basic
Pre-emptive Right, Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right and Supplemental Subscription
Right, if, at any time prior to an Initial Public Offering, as a result of any
issuance of equity shares by the Corporation (including pursuant to ANY of the
events that would otherwise be excluded by Section 11.4), BAC would cease to be
entitled to nominate a member of the Board of Directors in accordance with
Article 4 hereof (i.e. BAC would cease to hold at least 4% (or 3%, as the case
may be) of the issued and outstanding Common Shares), then BAC shall have a
Board Representation Pre-emptive Right on the same terms and conditions as apply
to BMO pursuant to Section 11.5, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

              The Board Representation Pre-emptive Right shall terminate and be
of no further effect if at any time BAC ceases to be entitled to nominate a
member of the Board of Directors in accordance with the provisions of Article 4
and fails to exercise its Board Representation Pre-emptive Right so as to retain
its board nominee.

EFFECT OF MERGERS AND SIMILAR TRANSACTIONS

              The provisions of Section 11.5 "Effect of Mergers and Similar
Transaction" shall apply to BAC MUTATIS MUTANDIS, without regard to the
exception relating to mergers with a bank listed in Schedule I of the Bank Act.

CALCULATING PERCENTAGE OWNERSHIP

              For the purposes of determining BAC's subscription entitlement
from time to time pursuant to this Section 11.6, as described under the headings
"Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right" and "Supplemental Subscription Right", BAC's
percentage holding of equity shares of the Corporation (both before and after
the pre-emptive right is exercised) shall be calculated by excluding from the
issued and outstanding capital of the Corporation the aggregate number of Common
Shares previously issued in the circumstances contemplated by Sections 11.4(a),
11.4(b), and 11.4(c).  For greater certainty, shares of the Corporation, issued
pursuant to the Stock Option Plan shall not attract pre-emptive rights (other
than the Board Representation Pre-emptive Rights) and, for purposes of this
Article 11 only, such shares shall not be recognized for purposes of calculating
relative shareholding either before or after the transaction.

11.7          SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER'S, CSTC'S
              AND SONERA'S PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHTS

BASIC PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              Each of the Founding Shareholder, CSTC and Sonera shall be
entitled to an equivalent Basic Pre-emptive Right pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 11.1 and 11.2 hereof at all times prior to an Initial Public Offering
and regardless of the level to which their respective ownership of equity shares
of the Corporation has declined.

SUPPLEMENTAL SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT

              At all times prior to an Initial Public Offering, each of the
Founding Shareholder, CSTC and Sonera shall have a Supplemental Subscription
Right on the terms and conditions applicable to the Supplemental Subscription
Right to which BMO is entitled pursuant to Section 11.5 hereof, MUTATIS
MUTANDIS; provided, however, that the respective relative ownership levels of
equity shares of the Corporation to which such Supplemental Subscription Rights
shall apply shall be as follows:

              (i)     the Founding Shareholder: 18.7%;

              (ii)    CSTC: 15%; and

              (iii)   Sonera: 15%.

BOARD REPRESENTATION PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT

              In addition to (but without duplication of) their respective Basic
Pre-emptive Right, Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right and Supplemental Subscription
Right, if, at any time prior to an Initial Public Offering, as a result of any
issuance of equity shares by the Corporation (including pursuant to ANY of the
events that would otherwise be excluded by Section 11.4), either CSTC or Sonera
would cease to be entitled to nominate a member of the Board of Directors in
accordance with Article 4 hereof, (i.e., CSTC or Sonera would cease to hold at
least 4% (or 3%, as the case may be) of the issued and outstanding Common
Shares) then such Shareholder shall have a Board Representation Pre-emptive
Right on the same terms and conditions as apply to BMO pursuant to Section 11.5,
MUTATIS MUTANDIS.  For greater certainty, the Founding Shareholder does not have
a "Board Representation Pre-emptive Right" as it is entitled to nominate a
director until it no longer holds any Common Shares, as provided in
Section 1.17.

              The Board Representation Pre-emptive Right shall terminate and be
of no further effect if at any time the particular Shareholder ceases to be
entitled to nominate a member of the Board of Directors in accordance with the
provisions of Article 4 and fails to exercise its Board Representation
Pre-emptive Right so as to retain its board nominee.

EFFECT OF MERGERS AND SIMILAR TRANSACTIONS

              The provisions of Section 11.5 "Effect of Mergers and Similar
Transaction" shall apply to the Founding Shareholder, Citicorp (with respect to
CSTC's pre-emptive rights) and Sonera, MUTATIS MUTANDIS; provided, however,
that: (i) such provision shall be read without reference to the exception
relating to mergers with a bank listed in Schedule I of the Bank Act; and (ii)
in the case of Citicorp/CSTC, the relevant merger threshold shall be calculated
with respect to the assets of Citigroup Inc.

CALCULATING PERCENTAGE OWNERSHIP

              For the purposes of determining the Founding Shareholder's, CSTC's
and Sonera's subscription entitlement from time to time pursuant to this Section
11.7, as described under the headings "Amended Basic Pre-emptive Right" and
"Supplemental Subscription Right", the Founding Shareholder's, Citicorp's and
Sonera's percentage holding (directly or indirectly) of equity shares of the
Corporation (both before and after the pre-emptive right is exercised) shall be
calculated by excluding from the issued and outstanding capital of the
Corporation the aggregate number of Common Shares previously issued in the
circumstances contemplated by Sections 11.4(a), 11.4(b), and 11.4(c).  For
greater certainty, shares of the Corporation, issued pursuant to the Stock
Option Plan shall not attract pre-emptive rights (other than the Board
Representation Pre-emptive Rights) and, for purposes of this Article 11 only,
such shares shall not be recognized for purposes of calculating relative
shareholding either before or after the transaction.

11.8          SUBSCRIPTION REPRESENTATIONS

              The Corporation shall be entitled, in connection with any
subscription for securities of the Corporation pursuant to Article 11, to
require the subscribing Shareholder to provide to the Corporation, in
writing, customary and typical representations as to the subscribing
Shareholder acting as principal, its investment intent and such other matters
as may be required by applicable securities laws.

11.9          EFFECT OF SHARE SALES ON SPECIAL PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHTS

              The references in Sections 11.5, 11.6 and 11.7 to the
numerically-specified relative shareholdings that each of BMO, BAC, CSTC,
Sonera and the Founding Shareholder are entitled to maintain pursuant to
their respective rights under the headings "Amended Basic Subscription
Rights" and "Supplemental Subscription Rights" (as applicable) shall be
deemed to be adjusted downward to the actual relative shareholding of any
such Shareholder in the event that such shareholder ever sells Common Shares,
such adjustment to be calculated immediately after the sale in question and
to apply perpetually thereafter.

                         CALL RIGHT CONCERNING MANAGEMENT,
                  NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEE SHAREHOLDERS

12.1          CALL RIGHT.

              Prior to an Initial Public Offering, if a Management
Shareholder, a Non-Employee Director or an Employee Shareholder (in this
Section, the "Departing Employee") shall for any reason cease to be an
employee of, or consultant to the Corporation and/or its Affiliates, the
Corporation (in this Section 12.1 called the "Purchaser") shall at any time
thereafter be entitled to send a notice in writing to the Departing Employee
requiring the sale of all of the shares of the Corporation beneficially owned
by the Departing Employee and any member of his Immediate Family (in this
Section 12.1, the "Purchased Shares") and on receipt of such notice, the
Departing Employee and his Immediate Family (collectively, in this Section
12.1, the "Vendor") shall sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall
purchase for cancellation from the Vendor the Purchased Shares, upon the
terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.  If the Corporation shall be
prohibited pursuant to any contract or by Applicable Law (not entered into
with a view to affording the Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partners
the right to exercise the Corporation's purchase rights pursuant to this
Section 12.1) to which it is a party or by which it is bound or pursuant to
the Act or Applicable Law from purchasing shares in its capital, or would
otherwise pursuant to such contractual arrangements be prohibited from
completing such transaction, the Founding Shareholder and the Strategic
Partners shall be entitled, but not obligated, to exercise the Corporation's
purchase rights pursuant to this Section 12.1 (and if more than one of such
Shareholders elect to participate they shall purchase on a basis pro rata to
their respective beneficial ownership of Common Shares as at the date of
delivery of such notice).  The members of the Founding Shareholder shall
purchase the Purchased Shares to be purchased by them pro rata to their
respective beneficial ownership of Common Shares at the date of delivery of
the Second Offer.  The Corporation or the purchasing Shareholder(s), as the
case may be, which is to purchase the Purchased Shares is referred to
hereafter as the "Purchaser".

12.2          CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE.

              For the purposes of any transaction of purchase and sale
contemplated by this Article 12, the purchase price for the Purchased Shares
shall be the fair market value thereof determined effective as at the Date of
Closing of the transaction in question by the Board of Directors in good
faith and in consultation with professional advisers taking into
consideration such factors such as goodwill, cash flow, book value and recent
or anticipated material changes in the affairs of the Corporation.  The
parties hereto acknowledge that the Board of Directors shall initially
determine fair market value as being the greater of 1 times sales or 1.5
times book value and the parties hereto further acknowledge that such
determination by the Board of Directors shall, for the purposes of this
Agreement, be final and binding and no appeal shall lie therefrom.

12.3          CLOSING.

              The closing of the transaction of purchase and sale herein
contemplated shall take place at the Place of Closing at the Time of Closing
on the date (in this Article 12, the "Date of Closing") which is the later of
(i) the date which is 15 days after receipt by the Departing Employee of the
notice contemplated in Section 12.1; and (ii) the date which is 15 days after
the purchase price for the Purchased Shares is finally determined in
accordance with the provisions of this Article 12.

                                     ARTICLE 13
                      FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER REGISTRATION RIGHTS

13.1          DEMAND REGISTRATION.

       (a)    At any time after the earlier of: (I) the day which is nine months
              after an Initial Public Offering; and (II) June 1, 2004, the
              Founding Shareholder may (notwithstanding the provisions of
              Article 4 hereof) request in writing (a "Founding Shareholder
              Registration Request") that the Corporation qualify a prospectus
              for, or effect the registration of, all or a part of the
              securities of the Corporation owned by such Shareholder(s) under
              the securities laws of one or more of the Provinces of Canada
              and/or the United States.  Provided, however, that no Founding
              Shareholder Registration Request may be delivered after the fourth
              anniversary of the Corporation's Initial Public Offering.
              Provided, further, that if the inclusion in such offering of
              shares to be issued by the Corporation would result in such
              offering being the Corporation's Initial Public Offering, then the
              Corporation may include such number of shares in the offering as
              is considered advisable by the Board of Directors and the priority
              rules of Section 4(a) of Schedule "13.1" shall be applicable to
              the offering.  The Founding Shareholder may effect only two
              Founding Shareholder Demand Registrations (exclusive of any such
              Founding Shareholder Demand Registration which results in the
              Corporation's Initial Public Offering).

       (b)    Upon receipt of a Founding Shareholder Registration Request, the
              Corporation shall: (i) as soon as practicable, but in any event
              within five business days after receipt of such request, give
              written notice of such request to the Strategic Partners, the
              Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors; and (ii)
              thereafter use all reasonable efforts to effect such qualification
              or registration, including therein securities with respect to
              which the Corporation has received written requests for inclusion
              therein from such other Shareholders (pursuant to their Piggyback
              Registration rights under Article 14) within 30 days after the
              receipt of the Corporation's notice, all in accordance with and
              subject to the provisions of Schedule "13.1". (All registrations
              pursuant to this Section 13.1 are referred to herein as "Founding
              Shareholder Demand Registrations".)

13.2          PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION.

              Whenever the Corporation proposes (other than pursuant to a
Founding Shareholder Demand Registration) to effect a Company Registration,
the Corporation will, no

<PAGE>
                                     - 70 -


later than five business days after the decision is made to proceed or
receipt of a Registration Request (as defined in Schedule "13.1") by another
holder of securities, give written notice to the Founding Shareholder of its
intention to effect such a registration, and such notice shall offer the
Founding Shareholder the opportunity to qualify or register (on the same
terms and conditions) such number of securities owned by such Shareholder(s),
as such Shareholder(s) may request (in this Article 13, a "Piggyback
Registration"). The Corporation will include in such Company Registration
securities with respect to which the Corporation has received a written
request for the inclusion therein from the Founding Shareholder within 30
days after the receipt of the Corporation's notice, all in accordance with
and subject to the provisions of Schedule "13.1".

              Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations described in this
Section 13.2 shall not apply to a Company Registration relating solely to
employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms which may be
promulgated under U.S. Securities Laws (as defined in Schedule 13.1) in the
future, or a registration relating solely to a transaction covered by Rule 145
under the 1933 Act registered on Form S-4 or similar form which may be
promulgated in the future.

13.3          EXPIRY OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

              Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions, the
Corporation shall not be required to effect a Founding Shareholder Demand
Registration or include in a Piggyback Registration securities which the
Founding Shareholder has requested be included therein: (I) if the request of
the Founding Shareholder is made at any time after the date which is four
years from the Corporation's Initial Public Offering; or (II) if: (i) such
securities have ceased to be "restricted securities" pursuant to Rule 144 of
the 1933 Act and have become freely tradable upon the expiration of any
otherwise applicable hold period under Canadian securities laws (or any
similar provision under applicable securities laws); and (ii) an offering of
such securities would not be deemed to constitute a "distribution" within the
meaning of clause (c) of Subsection 1(1) of the Securities Act (or equivalent
provisions of Canadian securities laws); and (iii) the Founding Shareholder
holds less than 5% of the issued and outstanding equity shares of the
Corporation at the date of the request.

13.4          SHORT-FORM PROSPECTUS REGISTRATIONS

              In addition, the Founding Shareholder may request the registration
or qualification of its Common Shares or other equity shares of the Corporation
pursuant to a Short-Form Offering, as defined in and in accordance with and
subject to the terms of Section 3 of Schedule "13.1".

14.1          DEMAND REGISTRATION RIGHTS OF STRATEGIC PARTNERS

       (a)    Subject to the provisions of Article 15, at any time after the day
              which is nine months after an Initial Public Offering, the
              Strategic Partners, acting collectively as described below, may
              (notwithstanding the provisions of Article 4 hereof)

<PAGE>
                                     - 71 -


              request in writing (a "Strategic Partner Registration Request")
              the Corporation to qualify a prospectus for, or effect the
              registration of, all or a part of the Common Shares or other
              equity shares of the Corporation owned by such Shareholder(s)
              (on a PRO RATA basis to those Strategic Partners who wish to
              participate in such qualification or registration or on such
              other proportional basis as such Strategic Partners may
              otherwise agree) under the securities laws of one or more of
              the provinces of Canada and/or of the United States.  Subject
              to the preceding sentence, the exercise of any such collective
              demand registration rights (the "Strategic Partner Demand
              Registration") shall be implemented, governed by and otherwise
              subject to the direction of those members of such group of
              Strategic Partners which collectively holds a majority of the
              Common Shares owned by all Strategic Partners.  Provided,
              however, that no Strategic Partner Registration Request may be
              delivered after the fourth anniversary of the Corporation's
              Initial Public Offering.  The Strategic Partners may effect
              only two Strategic Partner Demand Registrations (exclusive of
              their rights pursuant to Article 15 to cause an Initial Public
              Offering).

       (b)    After the Initial Public Offering, any person which acquires from
              the then existing Strategic Partners in a particular transaction
              (or series of related transactions) at least 5% of the outstanding
              Common Shares shall be entitled to participate in the group
              Strategic Partner Demand Registration rights, the group Short Form
              Offering Registration rights and the Piggyback Registration rights
              contemplated by this Article 14 as if it were a Strategic Partner.

       (c)    Upon receipt of a Strategic Partner Registration Request, the
              Corporation shall: (i) as soon as practicable, but in any event
              within five business days after receipt of such request, give
              written notice of such request to the Founding Shareholder, the
              Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors; and
              (ii) thereafter use all reasonable efforts to effect such
              qualification or registration, including therein securities with
              respect to which the Corporation has received written request for
              inclusion therein from such other Shareholders (pursuant to their
              Piggyback Registration rights under Article 13 and Article 14
              hereof) within 30 days after the receipt of the Corporation's
              notice, all in accordance with and subject to the provisions of
              Schedule "13.1".  (All registrations pursuant to this Section 14.1
              are referred to herein as "Strategic Partner Demand
              Registrations").

14.2          PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION RIGHTS OF STRATEGIC PARTNERS, MANAGEMENT
              SHAREHOLDERS AND NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

              Whenever the Corporation proposes to effect a Company
Registration, the Corporation will, no later than five business days after
the decision is made to proceed or receipt of a Registration Request by
another holder of securities, give written notice to the Strategic Partners,
the Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors of its intention
to effect such a registration, and such notice shall offer such Shareholders
(exclusive of the Strategic Partners where such Company Registration results
from a Strategic Partner Demand Registration) the opportunity to qualify or
register (on the same terms and conditions) all or part of their Common
Shares, subject to the provisions of this Article 14 and Schedule "13.1".  The

<PAGE>
                                     - 72 -


Corporation will include in such Company Registration securities with respect
to which the Corporation has received written requests for the inclusion
therein from such Shareholders (complying with the provisions of this Article
14) within 30 days after the receipt of the Corporation's notice, all in
accordance with and subject to the provisions of Schedule "13.1".

              Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations described in
this Section 14.2 shall not apply to a Company Registration relating solely
to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms which may
be promulgated under U.S. Securities Laws (as defined in Schedule 13.1) in
the future, or a Registration relating solely to a transaction covered by
Rule 145 under the 1933 Act registered on Form S-4 or similar form which may
be promulgated in the future.

14.3          EXPIRY OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

              Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions, the
Corporation shall not be required to include securities in a Demand
Registration or Piggyback Registration which a Strategic Partner, a
Management Shareholder or a Non-Employee Director has requested be included
therein: (I) if such request is made at any time after the day which four
years after the Corporation's Initial Public Offering; or (II) if: (i) such
securities have ceased to be "restricted securities" pursuant to Rule 144 of
the 1933 Act with respect to such Shareholder and have become freely tradable
upon the expiration of any otherwise applicable hold period under Canadian
securities laws (or any similar provision under applicable securities laws);
(ii) an offering of such securities would not be deemed to constitute a
"distribution" within the meaning of clause (c) of Subsection 1(1) of the
Securities Act (or equivalent provisions of Canadian securities laws); and
(iii) the Shareholder in question then holds less than 5% of the issued and
outstanding equity shares of the Corporation.

14.4          SHORT-FORM OFFERING REGISTRATIONS

              In addition, the Strategic Partners, acting collectively as
contemplated in Section 14.1(a), may request the registration or
qualification of their Common Shares or other equity shares of the
Corporation pursuant to a Short-Form Offering as defined in and in accordance
with and subject to the terms of Section 3 of Schedule "13.1".

15.1          STRATEGIC PARTNERS' ABILITY TO CAUSE AN INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING.

              If an Initial Public Offering has not occurred by June 1, 2004,
then, provided that a written notice invoking this Section 15.1 addressed to
the Corporation and signed by such number of Strategic Partners as is
required to represent a majority of the issued and outstanding Common Shares
and other equity securities of the Corporation, is delivered to the
Corporation, the Strategic Partners, the Management Shareholders and the
Non-Employee Directors, then the Strategic Partners which shall have executed
such notice (the "Exiting Partners"), acting jointly and with mutual consent,
shall be entitled, on behalf of the Corporation, to enter into discussions
with one or more securities dealers of recognised standing in Canada and/or
the United States with a view to obtaining a written representation (in this
Article 15, a "Representation")

<PAGE>
                                     - 73 -


addressed to such Exiting Partners and to the Corporation stating that such
securities dealer(s) is highly confident that it could at that time form and
lead a syndicate of underwriters to complete an Initial Public Offering which
would give rise to gross proceeds from the offering (inclusive of proceeds to
the Corporation and the Shareholders) in excess of US$20 million.  For
greater certainty, the allocation of available investor demand in the
offering between the shares that the Corporation desires to issue and sell,
on the one hand, and the shares which the Shareholders entitled to Piggyback
Registration rights desire to sell, on the other hand, shall be determined in
accordance with the priority rules of Section 4(a) of Schedule "13.1".  In
the event that such a Representation is obtained, then the Corporation will,
in co-operation with the Strategic Partners and the Founding Shareholder,
forthwith take all reasonable steps to implement and give effect to an
Initial Public Offering as contemplated by the Representation.  In this
regard, the Strategic Partners shall form a steering committee to act as a
point of contact for the Corporation to facilitate the co-operative process
by which the Corporation will conduct itself in pursuing the Initial Public
Offering initiated by the Exiting Partners. Management of the Corporation
will be directed to ensure that such steering committee is consulted and kept
informed on a regular basis.

15.2          SOLICITATION OF OFFERS FOR ALL OUTSTANDING COMMON SHARES.

              In the event that the Exiting Partners are unable to obtain a
Representation after having made such reasonable inquiries and having taken
such reasonable steps to obtain same in the United States and/or Canada, then
the Exiting Partners shall be permitted to solicit offers for the purchase of
all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares from third parties who are at
arm's length to the Strategic Partners and who are not, directly or
indirectly, Competitors (in this Article 15, a "Third Party"). However, if
the Exiting Partners together with any additional Strategic Partners (also
considered to be included as "Exiting Partners") deliver to the Corporation,
the Strategic Partners, the Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee
Directors a further written notice addressed to the Corporation invoking this
Section 15.2 and signed by such number of Strategic Partners which represent
66 2/3rd% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares and other equity
securities of the Corporation, then the Exiting Partners shall be entitled to
solicit offers from Third Parties that are Competitors (provided that such
third parties are at arm's length with the Strategic Partners).

              If the Exiting Partners receive a bona fide written cash offer
(in this Article 15, the "Offer") from a Third Party to purchase all of the
outstanding Common Shares and other equity securities of the Corporation,
which the Exiting Partners wish to accept, the Exiting Partners shall deliver
written notice of the Offer, together with a true copy thereof, to the
Corporation and to each of the other Shareholders indicating that they wish
to accept the Offer (or in the event of Offers which the Exiting Partners do
not wish to accept, they shall only deliver notice and a copy of the Offer).
The Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partner, if any, which shall have
disagreed with the proposed course of action by the Exiting Partners(s) shall
have 20 business days from the receipt of the notice from the Exiting
Partners to decide whether to sell all of their Common Shares and other
equity securities of the Corporation to the Third Party pursuant to the Offer
together with the Exiting Partners or to purchase all of the Common Shares
and other equity securities of the Corporation of the Exiting Partners for
the same price per share and otherwise on the same terms (as between the
Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partner(s) which shall not be an
Exiting Partner, such purchases shall take place on a several basis PRO RATA
to their respective ownership of Common Shares and other equity

                                     - 74 -


securities of the Corporation).  The Founding Shareholder and the non-Exiting
Strategic Partner(s) shall make their decision known by written notice to the
Strategic Partners and each of the other Shareholders and to the Corporation
delivered on or prior to the 20th business day following receipt of the
Exiting Partners' notice, failing which the Founding Shareholder and the
non-Exiting Strategic Partner(s) shall be deemed to have elected to sell to
the Third Party.  If the Founding Shareholder together with the non-Exiting
Strategic Partner(s) elect or are deemed to have elected to sell to the Third
Party, then all Shareholders shall do all things necessary and sign such
documents as are required to cause the Offer to be accepted and to cause all
of the outstanding Common Shares and other equity securities of the
Corporation, to be sold to the Third Party in accordance with the terms of
the Offer (and to cause the acceleration of the vesting and expiry dates of
all outstanding Options pursuant to the Stock Option Plan so that the holders
thereof can and shall be compelled to tender to the Offer in the same
manner). If any Shareholder fails to tender his or her Common Shares and
other equity securities of the Corporation, they shall be deemed to have
irrevocably appointed the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation as their
lawful attorney in accordance with the POWERS OF ATTORNEY ACT (Ontario) to
execute all such documents and to do all such things as may be necessary to
cause the Offer to be accepted and to complete such transaction.

              If the Founding Shareholder and/or the non-Exiting Strategic
Partner(s) shall have elected to purchase the shares of the Exiting Partners,
then the Offer shall not be accepted and instead the Exiting Partners and
their respective Affiliates and Subsidiaries which are then Shareholders (in
this Article, collectively called the "Vendor") shall sell to the Founding
Shareholder together with, if applicable, the non-Exiting Strategic
Partner(s) (in this Article, collectively called the "Purchaser") and the
Purchaser shall purchase from the Vendor all of the Vendor's Common Shares
and other equity securities of the Corporation, (in this Article, the
"Purchased Shares") for the cash price per share set out in the Offer and
such transaction of purchase and sale shall take place at the Place of
Closing at the Time of Closing on the date (in this Article, the "Date of
Closing") which is 20 days following the delivery of the written notice by
the Purchaser electing to purchase the Vendor's shares. If both the Founding
Shareholder and one or more non-Exiting Strategic Partner(s) elect to
purchase Common Shares, the Exiting Partners shall sell to them on a several
basis in proportion to the Purchaser's relative holdings of Common Shares and
other equity securities of the Corporation.

15.3          STRATEGIC PARTNER OFFER TO FOUNDING SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER
              STRATEGIC PARTNERS.

              The provisions of this Section 15.3 shall apply prior to an
Initial Public Offering.  In the event that a Strategic Partner wishes to sell
all, but not less than all, of its Common Shares (in this Section 15.3, the
"Exiting Strategic Partner"), it shall, by notice in writing (in this Section
15.3, the "Offer"), offer to sell such Common Shares  (in this Section 15.3,
collectively the "Offered Shares"), to the Founding Shareholder and the other
Strategic Partners (in this Section 15.3, the "Offerees") at a specified price,
which must be paid in cash (in this Section 15.3, the "Offer Price").  The Offer
shall be open for acceptance by written notice (in this Section 15.3, the
"Notice") delivered to the Exiting Strategic Partner specifying a number of
Common Shares desired to be purchased (which number shall not exceed the number
of Common Shares which is equal to the product obtained when: (1) the number of
Common Shares to be sold by the Exiting Strategic Partner is multiplied by (2) a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of

<PAGE>
                                     - 75 -


Common Shares held by the particular Offeree at the date of Offer and the
denominator of which is the aggregate number of Common Shares held by all of
the Offerees as at the date of the Offer) for a period of 15 business days
after receipt by the Offerees of the Offer (in this Section 15.3, the "Notice
Period").  In the event that, prior to the expiry of the Notice Period, no
Offeree specifies that it wishes to purchase any of the Exiting Strategic
Partner's Common Shares, the Exiting Strategic Partner shall not be permitted
to sell any of its Common Shares under this Section 15.3 pursuant to the
Offer.  If the Offer is accepted by at least one of the Offerees on or before
the expiry of  the Notice Period (in this Section 15.3,  the "First
Purchaser(s)"), then the Exiting Strategic Partner shall, by notice in
writing (in this Section 15.3,  the "Second Offer"), offer those Common
Shares which have not yet been accepted by the Offeree(s) under the Offer (in
this Section 15.3,  the "Remaining Common Shares"), to the First Purchaser(s)
only, at the same Offer Price. The Second Offer shall be open for acceptance
by written notice (in this Section 15.3,  the "Second Notice") delivered to
the Exiting Strategic Partner for a period of 15 business days after receipt
by the First Purchaser(s) of the Second Offer (in this Section 15.3,  the
"Second Notice Period").  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the terms and conditions of the Second Offer shall be amended so that any
Offeree may purchase more than its PRO RATA portion of the Remaining Common
Shares.  If, under the Second Offer, an Offeree wishes to purchase more than
its PRO RATA portion of the Remaining Common Shares, it shall state, in its
acceptance of the Second Offer, the number of Remaining Common Shares it so
wishes to purchase.  In the event that, on or before the expiry of the Second
Notice Period, the Offerees under the Second Offer specify that they wish to
purchase, in the aggregate, all or more than all of the Exiting Strategic
Partner's Remaining Common Shares (in this Section 15.3,  the "Second
Purchaser(s)"), then each Second Purchaser shall purchase its PRO RATA
portion of the Remaining Common Shares (based on the number of Common Shares
owned by the Second Purchasers as at the date of the Offer).  The purchase by
the Purchaser(s) and the Second Purchaser(s) of the Exiting Strategic
Partner's Common Shares shall take place at the Place of Closing at the Time
of Closing on the date (in this Section 15.3, the "Date of Closing") which is
20 days following the delivery of the later of the Notice or Second Notice,
if required, to the Exiting Strategic Partner.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that, on or before the expiry of the Second Notice
Period, the Offerees do not specify that they wish to purchase, in the
aggregate, all of the Exiting Strategic Partner's Common Shares, then the
Exiting Strategic Partner shall not be permitted to sell any of its Common
Shares under this Section 15.3.  Each Strategic Partner may only initiate the
provisions of this Section 15.3 once in any period of six consecutive months.

15.4          TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OF GREG WOLFOND

              In the event that the Material Decision contemplated by Section
1.1(mm)(x) is implemented (or if Greg Wolfond resigns from the office of
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for health reasons or dies), then,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Founding
Shareholder shall thereafter have the right, but not the obligation, to
pursue the marketing and sale of all or part of its shares of the Corporation
in accordance with the Right of First Offer Procedures contemplated in
Sections 8.2 and 8.3. The balance of  Article 8 shall not apply. For example,
there shall be no restriction on the time before which such sales can occur,
and there shall be no "drag along rights" for the Founding Shareholder or
"tag along rights" for the benefit of the other Shareholders (pursuant to
Article 8 or Article 10).

<PAGE>
                                     - 76 -


However, the Founding Shareholder shall be prohibited from selling any of such
Common Shares to a Competitor of BMO.

15.5          GENERAL RULES, RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS PERTAINING TO EXIT OPTIONS.

              With respect to the ability of the Founding Shareholder to
solicit offers from time to time for all or a portion of the outstanding
Common Shares of the Corporation in accordance with Articles 8, 10 and 13
hereof, and for the purposes of the rights of the Founding Shareholder and
the Strategic Partners pursuant to this Article 15, each of the parties
hereto acknowledges and agrees and consents to the following arrangements:

       (a)    The soliciting Shareholder shall, provided that it acts in good
              faith with a view to protecting the interests of the Corporation,
              not be liable (and its agents and nominees similarly not liable)
              for breach of duty of confidentiality or other rights in favour of
              the Corporation or the other Shareholders as a result of such
              solicitations, provided that appropriate confidentiality
              undertakings and other reasonably prudent measures are put in
              place.

       (b)    The Corporation shall provide reasonable assistance at its cost to
              facilitate such solicitations, provided that appropriate
              confidentiality undertakings and other reasonably prudent measures
              are put in place.  Such assistance by the Corporation shall
              include the provision of information and documentation reasonably
              necessary to obtain bona fide offers for the purchase of the
              business of the Corporation as a going concern in a timely
              fashion, which sale may be by way of all or substantially all of
              the outstanding shares or sale of all or substantially all of the
              property, assets and undertaking of the Corporation.

       (c)    With respect to the pursuit of an Initial Public Offering as a
              result of the Founding Shareholder exercising its rights pursuant
              to Article 13 or pursuant to the exercise of the rights of the
              Strategic Partners under this Article 15, the Corporation and the
              Shareholders shall act reasonably and in good faith with a view to
              assisting the implementation and completion of such a transaction
              and covenant and agree to enter into such undertakings, to deliver
              such representations and to place such shares into regulatory or
              contractual escrows as may be reasonably required in the
              circumstances.  Each of the Shareholders hereby constitutes and
              appoints the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation from time
              to time as his lawful attorney in fact pursuant to the POWERS OF
              ATTORNEY ACT (Ontario) in connection with the taking of such steps
              and the signing of all applicable documentation.  If,
              notwithstanding the foregoing, an Initial Public Offering cannot
              be implemented or proceeded with as a result of the refusal of one
              or more Shareholders to agree, consent, perform a step or deliver
              a document or otherwise or if any other impediment shall arise
              with respect to the completion of such a transaction, the parties
              hereto shall cause the Corporation to pursue, in a reasonable
              manner, an alternative transaction pursuant to which all or
              substantially all of the property, assets and undertaking of the
              Corporation are distributed to a Subsidiary of the Corporation and
              shares of such Subsidiary are qualified for distribution pursuant
              to the Initial Public Offering.

                                     - 77 -


       (d)    In connection with any such exit options, all reasonable expenses
              of or incidental to such transaction shall be borne by the
              Corporation (provided that reasonable notification of significant
              expenditures is given to the Corporation and its consent is
              obtained) unless prohibited by Applicable Law, including the
              policies and rules of securities regulators.  Each of the parties
              hereto covenants and agrees to act reasonably and in good faith
              with a view to co-ordinating all activities in respect of exit
              options with a view to minimising expenses, avoiding duplicate
              effort and avoiding conflicting or inconsistent marketing and
              business strategies.

                                     ARTICLE 16
                              GENERAL SALE PROVISIONS

16.1          APPLICATION.

              Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, the

Common Shares or the purchase by any Shareholder of the shares of any other
Shareholder pursuant to the provisions of Articles 8, 9, 10, 12 or 15,
MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

              Notwithstanding the foregoing:

              (i)      the provisions of Section 16.3(a) shall only apply to a
                      Strategic Partner selling all of its remaining shares of
                      the Corporation; and

              (ii)    the provisions of Section 16.3(d) and Section 16.3(f)
                      shall only apply to transactions pursuant to Article 9 or
                      Article 12.

16.2          DEFINED TERMS.

              For the purpose of this Article 16, the terms "Vendor", "Date
of Closing" and "Purchased Shares" or similar phrases shall have the meanings
attributed thereto in Articles 8, 9, 10, 12 or 15 hereof, as the case may be,
and the term "Purchaser" shall mean the Corporation or the Shareholder(s) who
are purchasing the Purchased Shares, as the case may be.

16.3          CLOSING.

              At the Time of Closing, the Vendor shall:

       (a)    if requested by the Corporation, deliver to the Corporation signed
              resignations of the Vendor, its Principal and his nominees, if
              any, as directors, officers and employees of the Corporation, as
              the case may be;

       (b)    assign and transfer to the Purchaser the Purchased Shares being
              purchased and shall deliver the required share certificate(s) duly
              endorsed for transfer;

       (c)    do all other things required in order to deliver good and
              marketable title to the Purchased Shares to the Purchaser free and
              clear of any claims, liens and encumbrances whatsoever including,
              without limitation, the delivery of any

                                     - 78 -


              governmental releases and declarations of transmission.
              Provided that if, at the Time of Closing, the Purchased Shares
              are not free and clear of all claims, liens and encumbrances
              whatsoever, the Purchaser may, without prejudice to any other
              rights which it may have, purchase the Purchased Shares subject
              to such claims, liens and encumbrances.  In that event, the
              Purchaser shall, at the Time of Closing, assume all obligations
              and liabilities with respect to such claims, liens and
              encumbrances and the purchase price payable by the Purchaser
              for the Purchased Shares shall be satisfied, in whole or in
              part, as the case may be, by such assumption;

       (d)    if all the shares of the Corporation held by the Vendor are being
              sold, deliver to the Corporation and each of its directors a
              release by each of the Vendor, its Principal, and his nominees, if
              any, of all his claims against the Corporation and each of its
              officers and directors with respect to any matter or thing up to
              and including the Time of Closing which the Vendor, its Principal
              or any such nominee knew or reasonably ought to have known as of
              the Time of Closing in his capacity as a director, officer,
              shareholder, employee or creditor of the Corporation or as a party
              to this Agreement, as the case may be, except for (i) any claims
              relating to indebtedness owing to or by the Corporation, (ii) any
              claims for termination pay or damages in lieu of notice of
              termination (unless otherwise specifically provided for in any
              written employment or consulting agreement entered into by the
              Vendor and the Corporation), (iii) any claims for accrued and
              unpaid salary, expenses, pension or other employee benefits,
              (iv) any claims relating to a written contract to which the
              Corporation or any of its officers or directors and the Vendor are
              parties which shall survive the sale of the shares of the
              Corporation held by the Vendor, or (v) any claims which might
              arise out of the transactions of purchase and sale herein
              contemplated (provided, however, that the Vendor, its Principal
              and their nominees shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of
              Sections 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 hereof, notwithstanding such sale of
              shares);

       (e)    either provide the Purchaser with evidence reasonably satisfactory
              to the Purchaser that the Vendor is not then a "non-resident" of
              Canada within the meaning of the INCOME TAX ACT (Canada) or
              provide the Purchaser with a certificate pursuant to Subsection
              116(2) of the INCOME TAX ACT (Canada) with a certificate limit in
              an amount not less than the purchase price for the Purchased
              Shares; provided that if such evidence or certificate is not
              forthcoming, the Purchaser shall be entitled to make the payment
              of tax required under the INCOME TAX ACT (Canada) and to deduct
              such payment from the purchase price for the Purchased Shares; and

       (f)    if all the shares of the Corporation held by the Vendor are being
              sold, deliver to the other Shareholders, their Principals and
              nominees, if any and the other parties hereto (other than the
              Corporation) (collectively, the "Releasees") a release which shall
              be executed and delivered by the Vendor and its Principal, and
              each of his nominees, if any (collectively, the "Releasors") in
              his capacity as a director, officer and shareholder of the
              Corporation in respect of all of his claims against

<PAGE>
                                     - 79 -


              each Releasee in their capacity as a shareholder, director or
              officer of the Corporation, which the Releasors knew or
              reasonably ought to have known in their capacities as
              aforesaid, except for any claims which might arise out of the
              transaction of purchase and sale herein contemplated or any
              claims concerning indebtedness or obligations owing to the
              Vendor or its Principal or nominees pursuant to this Agreement
              (including Section 16.4).

16.4          INDEMNITIES.

              If all the shares of the Corporation held by the Vendor are being
sold and, at the Time of Closing, the Vendor, or any person for or on behalf of
the Vendor (inclusive of its Principals and nominees), shall have any
guarantees, securities or covenants lodged with any person to secure any
indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Corporation, and/or the other
Shareholder(s), their Principals and nominees, in connection with the
Corporation then the other Shareholder(s) and the Corporation shall use their
reasonable best efforts to deliver up or cause to be delivered up to the Vendor
or cancel or cause to be cancelled such guarantees, securities and covenants at
the Time of Closing.  If, notwithstanding such reasonable best efforts, the
delivery up or cancellation of any such guarantee, security or covenant is not
obtained, the remaining Shareholder(s) (other than the Management Shareholders,
the Non-Employee Directors and the Employee Shareholders, and the members of
their Immediate Family who are then Shareholders) and the Corporation shall
deliver to the Vendor and, if applicable, to the person who shall have provided
such guarantee, security or covenant, an indemnity in writing, in form
reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Vendor, indemnifying them against any
and all claims, demands, costs, expenses, damages, liabilities and suits, which
may be or which shall have been paid, suffered or incurred by them with respect
to the said guarantee, security or covenant.

16.5          REPAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS BY CORPORATION.

              If all the shares of the Corporation held by the Vendor are being
sold and, at the Time of Closing, the Corporation is indebted to the Vendor in
an amount recorded on the books of the Corporation and verified by the
accountants of the Corporation, the Corporation shall, subject to any rights of
set-off, repay such amount to the Vendor at the Time of Closing.

16.6          REPAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS BY VENDOR.

              If all the shares of the Corporation held by the Vendor are being
sold and, at the Time of Closing, the Vendor is indebted to the Corporation in
an amount recorded on the books of the Corporation and verified by the
accountants of the Corporation: (i) if the Corporation is the Purchaser, the
Corporation shall have the right to set-off such amount from the purchase price
for the Purchased Shares and from the amount of the indebtedness, if any, of the
Corporation to the Vendor, provided that if such indebtedness exceeds the
aggregate of the said purchase price for the Purchased Shares and the amount of
the indebtedness of the Corporation to the Vendor, the Vendor shall pay such
excess to the Corporation at the Time of Closing; and (ii) if one or more
Shareholder(s) is the Purchaser, the Vendor shall pay such indebtedness to the
Corporation at the Time of Closing.

16.7          POWER OF ATTORNEY.

              If, at the Time of Closing, the Vendor fails to complete the
subject transaction of purchase and sale, the Purchaser shall have the right, if
not in default under this Agreement, without prejudice to any other rights which
it may have, upon payment of the purchase price payable to the Vendor at the
Time of Closing (net of such  amounts as may be payable to the Corporation
pursuant to this Article 16, in respect of which the Vendor irrevocably directs
the Purchaser to make payment to the Corporation) to the credit of the Vendor in
the main branch of the Corporation's bankers in the City of Toronto, to execute
and deliver, on behalf of and in the name of the Vendor, such deeds, transfers,
share certificates, resignations or other documents that may be necessary to
complete the subject transaction and the Vendor hereby irrevocably appoints the
Purchaser his attorney in that behalf in accordance with the POWERS OF ATTORNEY
ACT (Ontario).  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that such power of
attorney is a power coupled with an interest, given for consideration, and
cannot be revoked without the consent of the other parties hereto.

16.8          NO JOINT LIABILITY FOR PURCHASERS.

              For greater certainty, the parties hereto, acknowledge and agree
that, where there is more than one Purchaser, the Purchasers in any transaction
of purchase and sale contemplated in this Agreement are not jointly liable for
the payment of the purchase price for the Purchased Shares and, if applicable,
any indebtedness being purchased hereunder, or for the covenants being given
hereunder to the Vendor (unless they themselves breached or acquiesced in the
breach) but are only liable for their proportionate share of the said purchase
price.

                               RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

              Shareholder") is a Shareholder  of the Corporation or holds shares
              of a Shareholder of the Corporation, as the case may be, directly
              or indirectly, either individually or in partnership or in
              conjunction in any way with any person or persons, whether as
              principal, agent, consultant, shareholder, guarantor, creditor or

                      ceases to be a Shareholder of the Corporation (to the
                      extent that such business, patronage, service, or
                      contract is competitive with the

                      additional businesses from time to time carried on by
                      the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, collectively, a
                      "Competitive Business");

              (ii)    offer employment to or endeavour to entice away from the
                      Corporation or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any person
                      employed (or retained as a consultant) by the Corporation
                      or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates at the date of his
                      ceasing to be a Shareholder, or who was so employed or
                      retained at any time during the previous one-year period

              (iii)   engage in, carry on or otherwise be concerned with or
                      have any interest in, or advise, lend money to, guarantee
                      the debts or obligations of, permit his name, or any part
                      thereof, to be used or employed by any person, firm,
                      association, syndicate or corporation engaged in or
                      concerned with or having any interest in a business (in
                      any form) competitive to the Business carried on in any
                      country where the Corporation and its Affiliates or
                      Subsidiaries have sold or licensed products or services
                      during the 12-month period immediately preceding the
                      Departing Shareholder ceasing to be a Shareholder of the
                      Corporation.

       (b)    The Shareholders have or will have specific knowledge of the
              affairs of the Corporation, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries and
              their business.  Therefore, the Shareholders hereby acknowledge
              and agree that all covenants, provisions and restrictions
              contained in this Section 17.1 are reasonable and valid in the
              circumstances of this Agreement, and all defences to the strict
              enforcement thereof by the Corporation (and its Affiliates and
              Subsidiaries, in respect of which the Corporation is contracting
              herein as agent) are hereby waived.

If the provisions of this Section 17.1 are ever adjudicated to exceed the
limitations on time or geographic scope permitted by Applicable Law, then such
provisions shall be deemed reformed to the maximum time or geographic scope
permitted by Applicable Law.  For greater certainty, this Section 17.1 shall not
be applicable to the Founding Shareholder, the Strategic Partners or their
respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

17.2          CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

       (a)    The Shareholders and Principals acknowledge that in the course of
              being, or associated with, a Shareholder, the Shareholders will
              have access to and will be entrusted with Confidential
              Information.

       (b)    The Shareholders and Principals acknowledge and agree that the
              Confidential Information is the exclusive property of the
              Corporation and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries.  Except as may be
              required as a Shareholder and subject to Applicable Law, and
              except as permitted hereunder, each Shareholder and Principal
              covenants and agrees that it will not disclose (directly or
              indirectly), any of the Confidential Information to any person,
              other than to its directors, officers,

<PAGE>
                                     - 82 -


              employees, agents or professional advisors that have a need to
              know such information, nor shall the Shareholder or Principal
              use or exploit (directly or indirectly), such information for
              any purpose other than for the benefit of the Corporation, nor
              will it disclose for any purpose other than for the benefit of
              the Corporation the private affairs of the Corporation and its
              Affiliates and Subsidiaries or any other information which it
              may acquire during its tenure as a Shareholder with respect to
              the business and affairs of the Corporation and its Affiliates
              and Subsidiaries.

       (c)    Notwithstanding all of the foregoing, a Shareholder shall be
              entitled to disclose such Confidential Information if such
              disclosure is required pursuant to Applicable Law or pursuant to a
              subpoena, order, recommendation or direction issued by a court,
              arbitrator or any Governmental Authority (including OSFI),
              provided that the Shareholder shall first have:

              (i)     properly notified the Corporation;

              (ii)    consulted with the Corporation, at the Corporation's sole
                      expense, on the advisability of taking steps to resist
                      such requirements; and

              (iii)   if the disclosure is required or deemed advisable,
                      co-operate with the Corporation, at the Corporation's
                      sole expense, in an attempt to obtain an order or other
                      assurance that such information will be accorded
                      confidential treatment.

       (d)    Nothing in this Section 17.2 or in Section 17.3 shall be construed
              as limiting or impairing in any way any of the rights of the
              Corporation and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries whether at law, in
              equity or otherwise against the Shareholder with respect to the
              disclosure, use or exploitation in any manner whatsoever to any
              person or for any purpose, as the case may be, of any of the
              Confidential Information.  Provided that, for greater certainty,
              the Shareholders shall be entitled to consult with their
              professional advisors and agents for purposes of obtaining advice
              with respect to the Corporation or for purposes of performing
              duties to the Corporation provided that the disclosing Shareholder
              directs such professional advisors or agents as the case may be to
              hold such information in confidence and the Shareholder agrees to
              indemnify the Corporation in the event of breach of confidence by
              such persons.

       (e)    For greater certainty, nothing in this Section 17.2 or in Section
              17.3 shall be construed as limiting or impairing in any way any of
              the rights which may have been granted to the Strategic Partners
              by the Corporation from time to time under a license or licenses
              to use the software and operating systems developed by the
              Corporation when such use is in accordance with the terms of such
              license or licenses.

17.3          NON-SOLICITATION OBLIGATION OF STRATEGIC PARTNERS AND THE FOUNDING
              SHAREHOLDER.

              Each Strategic Partner and the Founding Shareholder covenants and
agrees that, while it is a Shareholder and for the one year period immediately
following it ceasing to be a Shareholder, either directly or indirectly through
Affiliates or Subsidiaries, it shall not, directly or indirectly, either
individually or in partnership or in conjunction in any way with any person or
persons, whether as principal, agent, consultant, shareholder, guarantor,
creditor or in any other manner whatsoever offer employment to or endeavour to
entice away from the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any person
employed (or retained as a consultant) by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or
Affiliates as at the date of such Strategic Partner or Founding Shareholder
ceasing to be a Shareholder, or who was so employed or retained at any time
during the previous one-year period or interfere in any way with the
relationship between any such employee (or consultant) and the Corporation, its
Affiliates or Subsidiaries.  Provided, however, that the provisions of this
Section 17.3 shall not apply to newspaper and other generally available or
disseminated recruiting activities conducted by a Strategic Partner or the
Founding Shareholder; provided that they do not expressly address or direct any
such recruiting activities at the employees or consultants of the Corporation
(or of the Subsidiaries or Affiliates thereof).  The Strategic Partners and the
Founding Shareholder have or will have specific knowledge of the affairs of the
Corporation, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries and their business.  Therefore,
such Shareholders hereby acknowledge and agree that all covenants, provisions
and restrictions contained in this Section 17.3 are reasonable and valid in the
circumstances of this Agreement, and all defences to the strict enforcement
thereof by the Corporation (and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, in respect to
which the Corporation is contracting herein as agent) on the basis that such
covenants, provisions and restrictions are not reasonable or valid or otherwise
against public policy are hereby waived.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
parties hereto covenant and agree that the restrictive covenants set forth in
this Section 17.3 apply only to the business group(s) within the affiliated
organization of each Strategic Partner that work directly with the Corporation,
and do not apply generally to any Strategic Partner, its Affiliates and
Subsidiaries and in the case of FTV, shall apply only to FTV and shall not apply
to its unitholders or to any entity in which FTV holds an equity investment.

17.4          ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF REASONABLENESS.

              The covenants in Sections 17.1, 17.2 and 17.3 are given by the
Shareholder and Principal acknowledging that the Corporation and its Affiliates
and Subsidiaries carry on, or will carry on, business initially throughout North
America, that he will have significant responsibilities in connection with the
Corporation and its Business and affairs, and that he either has or will have
specific knowledge of the private affairs and business of the Corporation and
its Affiliates and Subsidiaries.  Therefore, the parties hereby agree that all
restrictions contained in Sections 17.1, 17.2 and 17.3 are reasonable, necessary
and fundamental to the protection of the Corporation, its Affiliates and
Subsidiaries and their businesses and that a breach by the Shareholder would
result in immediate and irreparable damages to the Corporation that could not
adequately be compensated for by monetary award.  Accordingly, it is expressly
agreed by each Shareholder and its respective Principal, if any, that, in
addition to all other remedies available to it, the Corporation shall be
entitled to the immediate remedy of an interim, interlocutory and

<PAGE>
                                     - 84 -


permanent injunction as well as an accounting of all profits arising out of
any breach by the Shareholder or the Principal or nominees thereof.

17.5          SURVIVAL.

              The provisions of this Article 17 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

                                     GUARANTEE

18.1          GUARANTEE OF PRINCIPAL.

              Each Principal hereby unconditionally guarantees that the
Shareholder of which he is the Principal will duly and punctually observe and
perform all of the covenants and obligations on its part to be observed and
performed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or pursuant to any
instrument or agreement delivered pursuant to or contemplated by this Agreement
and hereby undertakes and agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Corporation
and the other Shareholders and Principals from and against all liability, harm,
loss, costs, charges, damages and expenses of any nature whatsoever (including
legal fees on a solicitor and client basis) occasioned by any act or default of
the Shareholder of which he is the Principal contrary to such covenants and
obligations or which may be incurred, suffered or sustained by reason of any
failure to observe and perform all or any of such covenants and obligations.

18.2          NATURE OF GUARANTEE.

              This guarantee shall be continuing, unconditional and
irrevocable and a fresh cause of action shall be deemed to arise in respect
of each such default.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
obligations of each Principal hereunder shall not be released, discharged,
impaired or in any way affected by any extensions of time, indulgences or
modifications granted by any party in favour of another, to enforce any of
the terms or provisions of this Agreement (or by any amendment of the terms
of this Agreement) or by the bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution,
amalgamation, winding-up or reorganization of the Corporation, or the
Shareholder of which he is the Principal or by any other act or proceeding in
relation to the Corporation, the Shareholder of which he is the Principal or
this Agreement whereby the Principal might otherwise be released or
exonerated, and each Principal hereby waives any right to require the
Shareholders and Principals to exercise or exhaust any action or recourse
against any other party before requiring performance by such Principal
pursuant to this guarantee.

18.3          GRANT OF EXTENSIONS, ETC.

              The other parties hereto may grant extensions of time or other
indulgences, take and give up securities, accept compositions, grant releases
and discharges and otherwise deal with the Shareholder of which the Principal
is the Principal as they may see fit and may apply all monies received from
such Shareholder or others, or from securities, upon such part of the
Shareholder's liability as they may think best, without prejudice to or in
any way limiting or lessening the liability of the Principal in question
under this guarantee.

18.4          NOT BOUND TO EXHAUST RECOURSES.

              The other parties hereto shall not be bound to exhaust their
recourses against the Shareholder of which the Principal is the Principal or
the securities they may hold or to value such securities before requiring
payment or performance from the Principal in question.

                                  ARTICLE 19

                      shares, the person shall, except where the right is not
                      exercisable at that time because the exercise thereof is

                      right is not exercisable at that time because the
                      exercise thereof is contingent on the death, bankruptcy
                      or permanent disability of an individual, be deemed to
                      have the same position in relation to the control of the
                      corporation as if the shares were so redeemed, acquired
                      or cancelled by the corporation at that time,

                      is, except where the right is not exercisable at that
                      time because its exercise is contingent on the death,
                      bankruptcy or permanent disability of an individual,
                      deemed to have the same position in relation to the
                      control of the corporation as if the person could
                      exercise the voting rights at that time, or

              (iv)    to cause the reduction of voting rights in respect of
                      shares owned by other shareholders, of the capital stock
                      of a corporation, the person is, except where the right
                      is not exercisable at that time because its exercise is
                      contingent on the death, bankruptcy or permanent
                      disability of an individual, deemed to have the same
                      position in relation to the control of the corporation as

<PAGE>

12.    EXCEPTION TO CONTROL IN FACT - For the purposes of this Schedule, where a

       (a)    there was in effect at the particular time an agreement or
              arrangement enforceable according to the terms thereof, under
              which, on the satisfaction of a condition or the happening of an
              event that it is reasonable to expect will be satisfied or happen,
              the controlled corporation will

              (i)     cease to be controlled, or controlled, directly or
                      indirectly in any manner whatever, as the case may be, by
                      the controller, and

              (ii)    be or become controlled, or controlled, directly or
                      indirectly in any manner whatever, as the case may be, by
                      a person or group of persons, with whom or with each of
                      the members of which, as the case may be, the controller
                      was at the particular time dealing at arm's length, and

       (b)    the purpose for which the controlled corporation was at the
              particular time so controlled, or controlled, directly or
              indirectly in any manner whatever, as the case may be, was the
              safeguarding of rights or interests of the controller in respect
              of:

              (i)     any indebtedness owing to the controller the whole or any
                      part of the principal amount of which was outstanding at
                      the particular time, or

              (ii)    any shares of the capital stock of the controlled
                      corporation that were owned by the controller at the
                      particular time and that were, under the agreement or
                      arrangement, to be redeemed by the controlled corporation
                      or purchased by the person or group of persons referred
                      to in subparagraph 12(a)(ii),

              the controlled corporation is deemed not to have been controlled
              by the controller at the particular time.

Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall thereafter deliver at the time of
purchase of Common Shares pursuant to the terms of the Warrant the number of
Common Shares of the Company or of the appropriate class or classes resulting
from such reclassification as the Holder would have been entitled to receive

          hereof, the purchase price per Common Share or per security of
          another class shall be adjusted so that the total purchase price of
          all shares or securities which may be purchased pursuant to this
          Warrant would equal the total purchase price of the Common Shares
          which have been purchased pursuant to this Warrant prior to the
          occurrence of such event.

     (b)  All rights and readjustments prescribed in sections 1.4 to 1.6

Exchange or the NASDAQ to permit the timely completion of such public
offering or the listing of such securities) then the Holder agrees to work
with the Company and such regulator in good faith to resolve the concerns
raised, including, as and if required, by amending any terms or conditions of
this Warrant so as to permit such offering or listing to be completed on a
timely basis. Nothing in this section shall require the Holder to amend the

concerns with such regulator through means other than by amending the terms
or conditions of this Warrant.

this Warrant.

1.6    POWERS OF ARBITRATOR.  By submitting a dispute to settlement under
these Rules, the Parties shall be taken to have conferred on the Arbitration
Board the following jurisdiction and powers, to be exercised by the
Arbitration Board so far as the relevant law allows, and in its absolute and
unfettered discretion, if the Arbitration Board shall judge it to be
expedient for the purpose of ensuring the just, expeditious, economical and
final determination of the dispute.  The Arbitration Board shall have
jurisdiction to:

(a)    determine any question of fact and law;

(b)    determine any question as to its own jurisdiction;

(c)    determine any question of good faith, dishonesty or fraud arising in the
       dispute;

(d)    order any Party to furnish such further details of the Party's case, in
       fact or in law, as it may require;

(e)    proceed notwithstanding the failure or refusal of any Party to comply
       with these Rules or with its orders or directions, or to attend any
       meeting or hearing, but only after giving that Party written notice that
       it intends to do so;

(f)    order the Parties to produce to the Arbitration Board, and to each
       other for inspection, and to supply copies of, any documents in their
       possession or power which it determines to be relevant.
       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Arbitration Board shall allow
       discovery only to the extent of a single request for production of
       documents; oral depositions or other discovery requests shall not be
       permitted unless the Arbitration Board finds and informs the Parties
       that denial of such requests would be manifestly unjust;

(g)    receive and take into account such written or oral evidence as it shall
       determine to be relevant, whether or not strictly admissible in law;

(h)    hold meetings and hearings (at which the Parties may be represented by
       legal counsel) and consider written and oral evidence and make his/her
       award (including any interim award considered necessary by the
       Arbitration Board, and the final award) in Ontario, and, with the
       concurrence of the Parties thereto, elsewhere; and

(i)    make any other interim or final orders which it considers to be
       appropriate in all the circumstances for any of the above purposes.

In addition, the Arbitration Board shall have such further jurisdiction and
powers as may be allowed to it by the INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL ARBITRATIONS ACT
(Ontario), the Agreement, the specific submission referred to herein, the Rules
of the Institute and the arbitral laws of any place in which it holds hearings
or in which witnesses attend, and of any place in which it gives any directions
or makes any orders or any award.

1.7    THE AWARD.  The Arbitration Board shall include in its award an order as
to the payment of the costs of the proceedings and reasonable counsel fees, and,
subject to the discretion of the Arbitration Board, costs will follow success
unless, in the opinion of the Arbitration Board, there

<PAGE>

is a compelling reason to depart from such result.  Any Party ordered to pay
costs may avail itself of any procedure for the taxing of costs, provided,
however, that the Parties specifically agreed that the officer taxing such
costs need not be bound by any statutory scale of costs.

The Arbitration Board will make its decision in writing and, unless the
Parties otherwise agree, the Arbitration Board's reasons will be set out in
the award. The Arbitration Board will send such award to the Parties as soon
as practicable after the conclusion of the proceedings.  The award shall be
final and binding on the Parties and shall not be subject to any appeal or
review procedure whatsoever, provided that the Arbitration Board followed the
Rules in good faith.  The Arbitration Board shall reconsider its findings
once at the request and expense of a Party, but in such event shall limit the
Parties to a single memorandum stating any relevant new evidence, points and
authorities, unless doing so would be manifestly unjust.

1.8    ACCESS TO COURTS FOR ENFORCEMENT AND INTERIM REMEDIES.  The Parties
consent to the award of the Arbitration Board being entered in any Court
having jurisdiction for the purposes of enforcement.  In addition, if it
appears to any Party that the Arbitration Board lacks the power to give
effective interim relief, such Party may apply to any appropriate Court for
such relief.

1.9    CONFIDENTIALITY.  All meetings and hearings of or by the Arbitration
Board shall be in private.  All matters in dispute, all claims, submissions,
evidence and findings, and the award itself (collectively, the "Information")
shall be kept confidential by the Arbitration Board, and no information
regarding any of the foregoing will be released to any third party or
otherwise made public without the written consent of the Parties, except as
otherwise contemplated herein and except for such information which is not
Confidential Information.

2.     RULES RELATING TO DEMAND REGISTRATION RIGHTS

              Any request for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of
securities proposed to be sold by the Initiating Party(ies) and the intended
method of disposition thereof (i.e. registration only, "best efforts" or firm
underwriting).  The Corporation shall not be obligated to effect a Demand
Registration in respect of less than such number of equity shares of the
Corporation as is equal to or greater than the lesser of: (I) 1,000,000 shares;
and (II) 25% of the equity shares of the Corporation then held by the Initiating
Party(ies).

              Notwithstanding the initiation of a Demand Registration, if the
Corporation determines, after consultation with the proposed underwriters for
the offering, that the expected gross proceeds in the offering (inclusive of all
shares being sold in the offering by the Corporation and the Shareholders) is
less than $20,000,000 (the "Minimum Threshold"), the Corporation shall not be
obligated to effect such Demand Registration unless the Initiating Party(ies)
agree(s) to sell additional securities (to the extent that it retains any
securities of the Corporation) to make up the deficiency.  For greater
certainty, if the Initiating Party(ies) are proposing to sell all of their
remaining securities of the Corporation, the Minimum Threshold requirement shall
not apply.  In addition, for greater certainty, if a Demand Registration is not
implemented because the Minimum Threshold has not been met, the Initiating
Party(ies) shall be entitled to re-initiate such requested Demand Registration
at a later time in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule "13.1".

              A Demand Registration may not require a shelf registration or a
shelf prospectus.

              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect a Founding
Shareholder Demand Registration if the Founding Shareholder had the opportunity
to utilize its Piggyback Registration rights within the immediately preceding
six month period and did not at that time exercise such rights by a request to
have included in such Piggyback Registration at least 100,000 equity shares of
the Corporation (it being acknowledged that as a result of the priority
allocation rules contained herein such request might not have been honoured in
full).

<PAGE>
                                  - 4 -

              In addition, the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect
any Demand Registration if: (i) the Corporation has, within the nine month
period immediately preceding the delivery of the Registration Request,
already effected a Demand Registration; or (ii) in any particular
jurisdiction in which the Corporation would be required to qualify generally
to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in
effecting such Registration, except to the extent required by Applicable Law
of Canada, the United States or a political subdivision thereof in connection
with the particular offering.

              In addition, if the Corporation shall furnish to the Initiating
Party(ies), a certificate signed by the Chief Financial Officer of the
Corporation stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of
Directors of the Corporation, it would be seriously detrimental to the
Corporation and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be filed
and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration
Statement, the Corporation shall have the right to defer taking action with
respect to such filing for a period of not more than 120 days after receipt
of the Registration Request of the Initiating Party(ies); provided, however,
that the Corporation may utilize this right only once in respect of a
Founding Shareholder Demand Registration and only once in respect of a
Strategic Partner Demand Registration.

              In addition, the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect,
or to take any action to effect, any Demand Registration: (i) during the
period starting with the date 60 days prior to the Corporation's good faith
estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date 180 days after the
effective date of, a Company Registration; provided that the Corporation is
actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to become effective; or (ii) if the Initiating
Party(ies) proposes to dispose of Common Shares or other equity shares that
may be distributed pursuant to a Short-Form Offering pursuant to a request
made pursuant to Section 3 below .

              The Founding Shareholder's Demand Registration rights may be
assigned, subject to the provisions of Section 1.19 hereof and the following
provisions of this Section 2.  Subject to the last sentence of this
paragraph, the Strategic Partner Demand Registration rights are meant to be
exercised, collectively, by all Strategic Partners from time to time and no
interest therein may accrue to the benefit of or be exercised by any Person
other than a Strategic Partner (or its Permitted Transferee).  The Founding
Shareholder's Demand Registration rights may be so assigned, provided: (a)
the Corporation is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished
with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee
and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being
assigned; and (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound
by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  For greater
certainty, the provisions of Section 13.3 shall apply to any such assignee of
the Founding Shareholder Demand Registration rights. After the Initial Public
Offering, any person which acquires from the then existing Strategic Partners
in a particular transaction (or series of related transactions) at least 5%
of the outstanding Common Shares shall be entitled to participate in the
group Strategic Partner Demand Registration rights, the group Short Form
Offering Registration rights and the Piggyback Registration rights
contemplated by Article 14 as if it were a Strategic Partner.

              The Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partners hereby
agree that, during the period of duration specified by the underwriter(s) of
Common Shares or other securities of the
<PAGE>
                                  - 5 -

Corporation, following the effective date of a Company Registration filed
under applicable Canadian and/or U.S. securities laws, each of them shall
not, to the extent requested by such underwriter(s), directly or indirectly
sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any
short sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of
(other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of the
Corporation held by it at any time during such period except Common Shares or
other equity shares included in such Registration; provided, however, that:

              (i)     such agreement shall be applicable only to the first two
                      such Underwritten Company Registrations; and

              (ii)    such agreement shall not apply unless the Corporation
                      and, if requested by the underwriter(s), all officers and
                      directors of the Corporation and all other persons with
                      Registration Rights (whether or not pursuant to this
                      Agreement) enter into similar agreements; and

              (iii)   except in connection with the Corporation's Initial
                      Public Offering, such agreement shall not provide for a
                      market stand-off time period which exceeds 180 days.

              In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Corporation may
impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Common Shares and other
equity shares of the Founding Shareholder and the Strategic Partners until
the end of such period.

3.     FORM S-3, F-3, SHORT-FORM F-10 AND SHORT-FORM PROSPECTUS REGISTRATIONS

              With a view to making available to the Founding Shareholder and
the Strategic Partners acting collectively (each an "S-3 Seller") the
benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule
or regulation of the U.S. Securities Regulator that may at any time permit an
S-3 Seller to sell securities of the Corporation to the public without
registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, Form F-3, a
short-form prospectus using Form F-10 or other similar simplified offering
documents under the applicable U.S. Securities Law or the benefits of a
short-form prospectus or similar simplified offering document pursuant to the
National Policy No. 47 "Prompt Offering Prospectus System" applicable under
Canadian Securities Law (collectively, "Short-Form Offerings"), the
Corporation agrees to:

       (a)    make and keep public information available and current, as those
              terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the
              Securities Act, at all times after 90 days after the effective
              date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Corporation
              for the offering of its securities to the general public in the
              United States;

       (b)    take such action, including the voluntary registration of its
              Common Shares and/or other equity shares under Section 12 of the
              Exchange Act, as is necessary to enable the S-3 Sellers to utilise
              Short-Form Offerings for the sale of its Common Shares or other
              equity shares, such action to be taken as soon as practicable
              after the end of the fiscal year in which the first Registration
<PAGE>
                                  - 6 -

              Statement filed by the Corporation for the offering of its
              securities to the general public in the United States is declared
              effective;

       (c)    file with the U.S. Securities Regulator in a timely manner all
              reports and other documents required of the Corporation under the
              Securities Act and the Exchange Act;

       (d)    furnish to any S-3 Seller, so long as it owns any Common Shares,
              forthwith upon request: (i) a written statement by the Corporation
              that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144
              promulgated under the Securities Act (at any time after the day
              which is 90 days after the effective date of the first
              Registration Statement filed by the Corporation in the United
              States), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time
              after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or
              that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold
              pursuant to a Short-Form Offering (at any time after it so
              qualifies); (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
              report of the Corporation and such other reports and documents so
              filed by the Corporation pursuant to the Exchange Act; and
              (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in
              availing any S-3 Seller of any rule or regulation of the U.S.
              Securities Regulator or U.S. Securities Law which permits the
              selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to
              such simplified Registration Statements; and

       (e)    file with the Canadian Securities Regulators an initial Annual
              Information Form under the "Prompt Offering Prospectus System" (an
              "AIF") and thereafter file renewal AIF's and all required
              continuous disclosure and other documents required for the
              Corporation to make use of the "Prompt Offering Qualification
              System" as soon as it is otherwise eligible to do so (in which
              case the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply MUTATIS
              MUTANDIS.

              In case the Corporation shall receive from an S-3 Seller a
proper written request or requests that the Corporation effect the
qualification of, or registration for, a Short Form Offering and any related
qualification or compliance with respect to all or a portion of the Common
Shares or other equity shares of the Corporation owned by the proposed S-3
Seller, the Corporation will:

       (a)    promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any
              related qualification or compliance, to the Founding Shareholder,
              the Strategic Partners, the Management Shareholders and the
              Non-Employee Directors; and

       (b)    as soon as practicable, effect such qualification or registration
              and all such qualifications and compliance as may be so requested
              and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all
              or such portion of the proposed S-3 Seller's Common Shares or
              other equity shares as are specified in such request, together
              with all or such portion of the Common Shares or other equity
              shares of any other Shareholder (excluding the Employee
              Shareholders) joining in such request as are specified in a
              written request given within 30 days after receipt of such written
              notice from the Corporation; provided, however, that the
              Corporation
<PAGE>
                                  - 7 -

              shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
              qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 3:
              (1) if a Short Form Offering is not available for such
              offering by the initiating S-3 Seller; (2) if the initiating S-3
              Seller, together with the holders of any other equity securities
              of the Corporation entitled to inclusion in such Registration,
              proposes to sell Common Shares and such other equity securities
              (if any) at an aggregate price to the public (net of any
              underwriters' discounts or commissions) of less than $15,000,000
              (3) if the Corporation shall furnish to the initiating S-3 Seller
              a certificate signed by the Chief Financial Officer of the
              Corporation stating that, in the good faith judgement of the Board
              of Directors of the Corporation, it would be seriously detrimental
              to the Corporation and its Shareholders for such Short-Form
              Offering Registration to be effected at such time, in which event
              the Corporation shall have the right to defer the filing of the
              Short-Form Offering Registration Statement for a period of not
              more than 60 days after receipt of the request of the initiating
              S-3 Seller; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not
              utilize this right more than once in any 12 month period; (4) if
              the Corporation has, within the 180 day period immediately
              preceding the request of the initiating S-3 Seller, caused a
              Registration Statement (for greater certainty including a
              Short-Form Offering) to be made effective; (5) in any particular
              jurisdiction in which the Corporation would be required to qualify
              to do business or to execute a general consent to service of
              process in effecting such registration, qualification or
              compliance except to the extent required by Applicable Law of
              Canada, the United States or a political subdivision thereof in
              connection with the particular offering; or (6) pursuant to a
              shelf registration; or (7):

              (i)     if the request of the S-3 Seller is made at any time
                      after the date which is four years from the Corporation's
                      Initial Public Offering; or

              (ii)    if: (I) such securities have ceased to be "restricted
                      securities" pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the
                      Securities Act and have become freely tradable upon the
                      expiration of any otherwise applicable hold period under
                      Canadian securities laws (or any similar provision under
                      applicable securities laws); and (II) an offering of such
                      securities would not be deemed to constitute a
                      "distribution" within the meaning of clause (c) of
                      Subsection 1(1) of the Securities Act (or equivalent
                      provisions of Canadian securities laws); and (III) the
                      S-3 Seller holds less than 5% of the issued and
                      outstanding equity shares of the Corporation at the date
                      of the request.

       (c)    Subject to the foregoing, the Corporation shall file a
              Registration Statement covering the Common Shares and other equity
              securities of the Corporation so requested as soon as practicable
              after receipt of the request of the initiating S-3 Seller.  All
              Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a registration
              requested pursuant to this Section 3, including (without
              limitation) all registration, filing, qualification, printer's and
              accounting fees and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one
              United States and one Canadian counsel for the initiating S-3

              Corporation, but excluding any underwriters' discounts or
              commissions associated with such disposition of Common Shares
              and other equity securities, shall be paid by the Corporation.

apply, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, to such Short Form Offerings.

4.     PRIORITIES RELATING TO REGISTRATION RIGHTS

       (a)    If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary
              registration on behalf of the Corporation, or if the offering in
              question is the Corporation's Initial Public Offering, and the
              managing underwriter advises the Corporation in writing that, in
              its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be
              included in such Piggyback Registration exceeds the number which
              can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the price
              of the Registrable Securities to be sold, then the Corporation
              shall include in such offering: (i) first, the securities the
              Corporation proposes to sell; (ii) second, the Registrable
              Securities requested to be included in such Piggyback Registration
              by the Founding Shareholder, the Strategic Partners, the
              Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors, provided
              that, if the managing underwriter in good faith determines that a
              lower number of Registrable Securities should be included, then
              the Corporation shall be required to include in such Piggyback
              Registration only that lower number of Registrable Securities, and
              the Founding Shareholder, the Strategic Partners, the Management
              Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors shall participate in
              the Piggyback Registration pro rata based upon the number of
              Registrable Securities requested by them to be included in such
              Piggyback Registration, except to the extent any of them may agree
              to a lower priority; and (iii) third, other securities of the
              Corporation requested to be included in such Piggyback
              Registration.

       (b)    If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and the
              managing underwriter advises the Corporation in writing that, in
              its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be
              included in such Demand Registration exceeds the number which can
              be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the price of
              the Registrable Securities to be sold, then the Corporation shall
              include in such offering: (i) first, the Registrable Securities
              requested to be included in such offering by the Founding
              Shareholder, the Strategic Partners, the Management Shareholders
              and the Non-Employee Directors (whether pursuant to their Demand
              Registration rights or their Piggyback Registration rights),
              provided that, if the managing underwriter in good faith
              determines that a lower number of Registrable Securities should be
              included, then the Corporation shall be required to include in
              such Demand Registration only that lower number of Registrable
              Securities, and the Founding Shareholder, the Strategic Partners,
              the Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors shall
              participate in the Demand Registration pro rata based upon the
              number of Registrable Securities requested by them to be included
              in such Demand Registration, except to the extent any of them may
              agree to a lower priority; (ii) second, the securities the
              Corporation
<PAGE>
                                  - 9 -

              proposes to sell; and (iii) third, other securities of
              the Corporation requested to be included in such Demand
              Registration.

       (c)    If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary
              registration on behalf of holders of the Corporation's securities
              (other than the Founding Shareholder under Section 13.2 or the
              Strategic Partners under Section 14.2) and the managing
              underwriter advises the Corporation in writing that, in its
              opinion, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be
              included in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold in
              such offering without adversely affecting the price of the
              Registrable Securities to be sold, then the Corporation shall
              include in such offering: (i) first, the securities proposed to be
              sold by the sellers on whose behalf the offering was initiated;
              second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in
              such offering by the Founding Shareholder, the Strategic Partners,
              the Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors,
              provided that, if the managing underwriter, in good faith,
              determines that a lower number of Registrable Securities should be
              included, then the Corporation shall be required to include in
              such Piggyback Registration only that lower number of Registrable
              Securities, and the Founding Shareholder, the Strategic Partners,
              the Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors shall
              participate in the Piggyback Registration pro rata based upon the
              number of Registrable Securities requested by them to be included
              in such Piggyback Registration, except to the extent any of them
              may agree to a lower priority; (iii) third, the securities the
              Corporation proposes to sell; and (iv) fourth, other securities of
              the Corporation requested to be included in such Piggyback
              Registration.

5.     GENERAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO REGISTRATION RIGHTS

              Each Selling Holder shall furnish the Corporation such information
regarding such Selling Holder and the distribution of its Registrable Securities
as the Corporation may from time to time reasonably request in writing in
connection with the Registration Statement.

              A Selling Holder may only participate in any underwritten
registration hereunder if such Selling Holder: (i) agrees to sell such Selling
Holder's Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the person or persons entitled hereunder to approve
such arrangements; and (ii) complete and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, escrow agreements and other
documents reasonably required and which are acceptable to such Selling Holder
acting reasonably and in good faith under the terms of such underwriting
arrangements and consistent with the provisions of this Schedule.

              All Registration Expenses will be borne by the Corporation;
provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay for any
expenses of any registration or prospectus process initiated pursuant to a
Demand Registration if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the
request of the initiating party, in which case, the initiating party shall bear
such expense, unless at the time of such withdrawal the initiating party
indicates that since the date of the registration request, it has learned of a
material adverse change of the condition, business or prospects of the
Corporation from that known to the initiating party at the
<PAGE>
                                  - 10 -

time of the registration request and provided that the initiating party
withdraws the request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by the
Corporation of such material adverse change (whereupon the initiating party
shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain its rights
with respect to the abandoned Demand Registration).

              If and whenever the Corporation is required to effect the
Registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Laws pursuant to
Article 13 or Article 14, the Corporation will, as expeditiously as possible:

       (a)    prepare and file with the Regulatory Authorities the requisite
              Registration Statement to effect such Registration and thereafter
              use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to
              become effective;

       (b)    prepare and file with the Regulatory Authorities such amendments
              and supplements to such Registration Statement as may be necessary
              to keep such Registration Statement effective and to comply with
              the provisions of the applicable Securities Laws with respect to
              the disposition of all Registrable Securities offered by such
              Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable
              Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended
              methods of disposition by the Selling Holders set forth in such
              Registration Statement;

       (c)    furnish to each Selling Holder such number of conformed copies of
              such Registration Statement and of each such amendment and
              supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits and
              documents incorporated by reference, appropriately legended in the
              case of those exhibits filed on a confidential basis), and, so
              long as the Corporation is required to keep such Registration
              Statement effective pursuant to paragraph (b) above, such number
              of copies of the prospectus contained in such Registration
              Statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary
              prospectus) and any other prospectus filed pursuant to the
              applicable Securities Laws, in conformity with the requirements of
              the applicable Securities Laws, and such other documents, as such
              Selling Holder may reasonably request;

       (d)    use its best efforts (x) to register or qualify all Registrable
              Securities offered by such Registration Statement under such other
              securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdiction where an
              exemption is not available and as any Selling Holder shall
              reasonably request, (y) to keep such registration or qualification
              in effect for so long as such Registration Statement remains in
              effect and (z) to take any other action that may be necessary or
              advisable to enable such Selling Holders to consummate the
              disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities to
              be sold by such Selling Holders, except that the Corporation shall
              not for any such purpose be required to (i) qualify generally to
              do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein
              it would not, but for the requirements of this paragraph, be
              obligated to be so qualified, (ii) become subject to taxation in
              any jurisdiction where it would not then be so subject or
              (iii) take any action that would subject it to general service of
              process in any such jurisdiction (except to
<PAGE>
                                  - 11 -

              the extent required by the Applicable Laws of a particular
              jurisdiction in connection with the particular offering);

       (e)    use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable
              Securities offered by such Registration Statement to be registered
              with or approved by such other federal, provincial or state
              governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary in the
              opinion of counsel to the Corporation and counsel to the Selling
              Holders to enable the Selling Holders to consummate the
              disposition of such Registrable Securities;

       (f)    furnish at the effective date of such Registration Statement and
              the date of closing of the sale of the Registrable Securities
              (whether or not such sale is underwritten), to each Selling
              Holder, and each Selling Holder's underwriters, if any, a signed
              counterpart of:

              (i)     an opinion of counsel for the Corporation, dated the
                      effective date of such Registration Statement (or such
                      date of closing, as applicable), and

              (ii)    a "comfort" letter signed by the independent public
                      accountants who have certified the Corporation's
                      financial statements included or incorporated by
                      reference in such Registration Statement,

              covering substantially the same matters with respect to such
              Registration Statement (and the prospectus included therein) and,
              in the case of the accountants' comfort letter, with respect to
              events subsequent to the date of such financial statements, as are
              customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel and in
              accountants' comfort letters delivered to the underwriters in
              underwritten public offerings of securities;

       (g)    notify each Selling Holder at any time when a prospectus relating
              to the Registration is required to be delivered under the
              Securities Laws, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any
              event known to the Corporation as a result of which, the
              prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in
              effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits
              to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
              necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the
              light of the circumstances under which they were made, and
              promptly prepare and furnish to each Selling Holder a reasonable
              number of copies of a supplement to or any amendment of such
              prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to
              the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not
              include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
              material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
              the statements therein not misleading in the light of the
              circumstances under which they were made;

       (h)    otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all
              applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Laws and, if
              required, make available to its security holders, as soon as
              reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the
<PAGE>
                                  - 12 -

              period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen
              months, beginning with the first full calendar month after the
              effective date of such Registration Statement, which earnings
              statement shall satisfy the provisions of Securities Laws, and
              promptly furnish to each such Selling Holder a copy of any
              amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement;

       (i)    permit any Selling Holder to participate in the preparation of
              such Registration Statement and to include therein material,
              furnished to the Corporation in writing, which in the reasonable
              judgement of the Selling Holder should be included and which is
              reasonably acceptable to the Corporation;

       (j)    if any proposed Registration Statement refers to a Selling Holder
              by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the
              Corporation then: (i) the Corporation shall be required to insert
              therein language, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
              such Selling Holder, the Corporation and the managing underwriter,
              to the effect that the ownership by such Selling Holder of such
              securities is not to be construed as a recommendation by such
              Selling Holder as to the investment quality of the Corporation's
              securities offered thereby and that such ownership does not imply
              that such Selling Holder will assist in meeting any future
              financial requirements of the Corporation; or (ii) in the event
              that such reference to such Selling Holder by name or otherwise is
              not required by the applicable Securities Laws, any similar
              federal, provincial or state statute, or any rule or regulation of
              any other regulatory body having jurisdiction over the offering,
              then in force, the Corporation shall be required at the request of
              such Selling Holder to delete the reference to such Selling
              Holder;

       (k)    provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar
              for all Registrable Securities offered by such Registration
              Statement from and after a date not later than the Effective Date;
              and

       (l)    use its best efforts to list all Registrable Securities covered by
              such Registration Statement on any securities exchange or trading
              market on which the Corporation's Registrable Securities are then
              listed.

              If requested by the underwriters for any underwritten offering
of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration, the Corporation
will use all reasonable efforts to enter into an underwriting agreement with
such underwriters for such Demand Registration, such agreement to be
reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Corporation, the Selling
Holders and the underwriters and to contain such representations and
warranties by the Corporation and such other terms as are customary in
agreements of that type, including, without limitation, indemnities to the
effect and to the extent provided in paragraph 6 hereof.  The Selling Holders
will reasonably cooperate with the Corporation in the negotiation of the
underwriting agreement.  Such Selling Holders shall be parties to such
underwriting agreement.  All of the representations and warranties by, and
the other agreements on the part of, the Corporation to and for the benefit
of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such
Selling Holders and any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations
of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement shall also be
conditions precedent to the obligations of such Selling
<PAGE>
                                  - 13 -

Holders.  No Selling Holder shall be required to make any representations or
warranties to or agreements with the Corporation other than representations,
warranties or agreements regarding such Selling Holder, matters pertaining to
the Selling Holder's contractual or other arrangements with the Corporation,
such Selling Holder's Registrable Securities and such Selling Holder's
intended method of distribution or any other representations required by the
applicable Securities Laws.

              If requested by the underwriters for any underwritten offering
of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Piggyback Registration, the Selling
Holders shall be parties to the underwriting agreement between the
Corporation and such underwriters.  All of the representations and warranties
by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Corporation to and for the
benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of the
Selling Holders, and any or all of the conditions precedent to the
obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement shall also
be conditions precedent to the obligations of the Selling Holders.  No
Selling Holder shall be required to make any representations and warranties
to, or agreements with, the Corporation or such underwriters other than those
representations, warranties or agreements regarding the Selling Holder,
matters pertaining to the Selling Holder's contractual or other arrangements
with the Corporation, the Selling Holder's Securities, the Selling Holder's
intended method of distribution and any other representations required by the
applicable Securities Laws.

              In connection with the preparation and filing of each
Registration Statement under the Securities Laws, the Corporation will give
the Selling Holders, their underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel
the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such Registration
Statement, each prospectus included therein or filed with the Regulatory
Authorities, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and will give
each of them such reasonable access to the books and records of the
Corporation and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Corporation
with its officers and the independent public accountants who have certified
its financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of such
holders, and such underwriters and their respective counsel, to conduct a
reasonable investigation.  The Corporation shall promptly notify such holders
and their counsel of any stop order issued or threatened by the Regulatory
Authorities and take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of
such stop order or to remove it if entered.

              If the Corporation becomes subject to the reporting
requirements of a jurisdiction where the Registrable Securities become
qualified, the Corporation will use its best efforts to file with the
applicable Regulatory Authorities such information as the applicable
Regulatory Authorities may require in a timely fashion; and in such event,
the Corporation shall use its best efforts to take all action as may be
required in order to maintain the registration of such Registrable Securities
in good standing and not in default. The Corporation shall furnish to the
Selling Holders forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the
Corporation as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of

quarterly report of the Corporation as filed with the applicable Regulatory
Authorities, and (iii) such other reports and documents as the Selling
Holders may reasonably request in availing themselves of any rule or

6.     INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS RELATING TO REGISTRATION RIGHTS

              In connection with any Registration, the Corporation agrees to
indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, each Selling Holder, each
other person or entity which participates as an underwriter in the offering
or sale of such Registrable Securities and each other person or entity which
controls such Selling Holder or any such underwriter, and their respective
directors, officers, partners, agents and affiliates, against all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including legal fees and
disbursements on a solicitor and client basis) to which such Selling Holder
or underwriter or any such director, officer, partner, agent, affiliate or
controlling person or entity may become subject under applicable law or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out
of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement
thereto) or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
except insofar as the same are caused by any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or any such omission or alleged omission if (x) such untrue
statement or omission is completely corrected in an amendment or supplement
to such Registration Statement prepared in a timely fashion by the
Corporation and the Corporation has furnished such Selling Holder (or
underwriter, if any) with a sufficient number of copies of the same, the
Selling Holder (or underwriter, if any) having an obligation under the
Securities Laws to deliver a prospectus or prospectus supplement in
connection with such sale of Registrable Securities thereafter fails to
deliver such prospectus or prospectus supplement as so amended or
supplemented prior to or concurrently with the sale of Registrable Securities
to the person asserting such loss, claim, damage or liability, or (y)such
untrue statement or omission is caused by or contained in any information
with respect to any Selling Holder which was furnished in writing to the
Corporation by the Selling Holder expressly for use therein, or caused by the
Selling Holder's failure to deliver (contrary to the requirements of the
applicable Securities Laws or contrary to an undertaking given by the Selling
Holder) to a prospective purchaser a copy of the Registration Statement or
any amendment or supplement thereto.  Such indemnity shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such
Selling Holder or any such director, officer, partner, employee, agent,
affiliate or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of Registrable
Securities by such Selling Holder (or underwriter, if any).

              In connection with any offering in which the Selling Holders
are participating, each Selling Holder will furnish to the Corporation in
writing such information with respect to it as the Corporation reasonably
requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement.  Each
Selling Holder agrees to indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, the
Corporation, its directors and officers and each person who controls the
Corporation (within the meaning of the Securities Laws) and, in connection
with an underwritten offering, each underwriter and each person who controls
the underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Laws) against any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys' fees
and disbursements) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, to the extent, but
only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is in conformity
with and contained in any information
<PAGE>
                                  - 15 -

with respect to any Selling Holder so furnished in writing by the Selling
Holder expressly for use therein, provided, however, that (x) the Selling
Holder shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such
statement or omission is completely corrected in the final prospectus, in the
case of a preliminary prospectus, or in an amendment or supplement to a
prospectus or prospectus supplement and (y) the liability of such Selling
Holder under this section shall be limited to the amount of proceeds received
by such Selling Holder in the offering giving rise to such liability.  Such
indemnity shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Corporation or any such director,
officer or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of Registrable
Securities by such Selling Holder.

              Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder (the
"Indemnified Party") agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying
party as provided at paragraph 5 hereof (the "Indemnifying Party") after the
receipt by such person of any written notice of the commencement of any
action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof made in writing
for which such person will claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to
this Agreement (provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Party
to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially
prejudiced by such failure to give notice) and, unless in the reasonable
judgement of such Indemnified Party a conflict of interest may exist between
such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim,
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defence of such claim with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party.  Provided,
however, that if the Indemnifying Party does not inform the Indemnified Party
of its decision to defend the claim within five business days after receipt
of notice of the claim from the Indemnified Party (and as soon as practicable
thereafter the identity of counsel retained for the defence), or thereafter
abandons the defence or fails to pursue the defence in good faith, then the
Indemnified Party (in conjunction with all other Indemnified Parties) may
retain counsel and conduct the defence of the claim in good faith and at the
Indemnifying Party's cost and expense .  In such circumstances the
Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified
Party (unless and until the Indemnifying Party shall thereafter request to
participate in the defence of the claim, after which the parties shall
jointly conduct the defence of the claim).  If the Indemnifying Party is not
entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defence of a claim (or thereafter
abandons such defence or does not pursue such defence in good faith), it will
not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel with
respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgement of any Indemnified
Party a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Party and any
other of such Indemnified Parties with respect to such claim, in which event
the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of
such additional counsel or counsels.  The Indemnifying Party will not be
subject to any liability for any settlement made without its written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

              If the indemnification provided for in this section from an
Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder in
respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to
therein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such
Indemnified Party, shall contribute, subject to the same restrictions and
limitations applicable to such indemnification to the amount paid or payable
by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection
with
<PAGE>
                                  - 16 -

the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The
relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in
question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by,
or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified
Party, and the party's' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such action.

              The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this section, any
legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in
connection with any investigation or proceeding.  If an Indemnified Party,
acting reasonably, determines that any payment in respect of indemnification
or contribution (the "Payment") made pursuant to this Schedule "13.1" is
subject to taxes payable under the EXCISE TAX ACT (Canada) ("GST") or under
any provincial or other legislation similar to the EXCISE TAX ACT, or under
any successor legislation of like or similar effect (collectively, the
"ETA"), or if any sales or similar tax under any provincial or other
legislation not substantially harmonised with the ETA is applicable to such
Payment, the amount of the Payment shall be increased by the amount of all
applicable taxes to the extent necessary to compensate the Indemnified party
for any net GST or similar tax cost not recoverable as input tax credit or
similar tax recoveries.

              The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this section were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into
account the equitable considerations referred to above.  No person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (as defined in the applicable securities
legislation) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

              If indemnification is available under this section, the
Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties to the full
extent provided in this Section.

The Selling Holders shall be deemed to be acting as agent and attorney herein
for their respective controlling persons or entities, their respective
underwriters (and persons or entities which control such underwriters) and
the respective directors, officers, partners, agents and affiliates thereof
with respect to the rights of indemnification and contribution herein
contained.
