ARTICLE 9
RIGHTS OF THE OPTIONEE PRIOR TO EXERCISE DATE 9.1 The Share Option herein granted shall not entitle the Optionee to any rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Corporation with respect to any Option Shares subject to the Share Option until the Share Option, or any portion thereof, has been exercised in accordance with Clause 8.1 and Option Shares have been issued as fully paid and non-assessable. 9.2 Until the Share Option, or any portion thereof, has been exercised in accordance with Clause 8.1, the Optionee may elect to surrender unexercised Share Option, all in the manner as more particularly provided for in the Plan.

ARTICLE 12
FURTHER ASSURANCES 12.1 The parties hereto covenant that they shall and will from time to time and at all times hereafter do and perform all such acts and things and execute all such additional documents as may be required to give effect to the terms and intention of this Agreement. 12.2 The Optionee certifies that s/he is a resident of British Columbia. 12.3 The Corporation represents and warrants that the Optionee is a bona fide Investor Relations Activities Consultant of the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation.
