c.

Except as otherwise determined by the Board and subject to the limitation that Options may not be exercised later than 5 years from their date of grant:

i.

if a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Person for any reason whatsoever other than death or termination for cause, each Option held by the Participant other than a Participant who is involved in Investor Relations Activities will cease to be exercisable 90 days after the Termination Date.  For Participants involved in Investor Relations Activities, Options shall cease to be exercisable 30 days after the Termination Date.  If a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Person because his relationship with the Corporation or Subsidiary is terminated by the Corporation or Subsidiary, as applicable, for cause, his Option shall cease to be exercisable immediately upon such termination on the Termination Date.  If any portion of an Option is not vested by the Termination Date, that portion of the Option may not under any circumstances be exercised by the Participant.  Without limitation, and for greater certainty only, this provision will apply regardless of whether the Participant received compensation in respect of dismissal or was entitled to a period of notice of termination which would otherwise have permitted a greater portion of the Option to vest with the Participant;

ii.

if a Participant dies, the legal representative of the Participant may exercise the Participant's Options within one year after the date of the Participant's death, but only to the extent the Options were by their term exercisable on the date of death.

Unless the approval of the Exchange is obtained, Options granted under the Plan shall vest at a minimum over a period of 18 months with no more than 25% of such Options vesting immediately and the balance vesting in equal installments every 6 (six) months thereafter.  The Board may impose such other restrictions or limitations or requirements upon the exercise of Options as the Board, in its absolute discretion, may determine on the date of grant.

e.

Each Option shall be confirmed by an option agreement executed by the Corporation and by the Participant to whom such Option is granted.  Subject to specific variations approved by the Board in respect of any Option, such variations not to be inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, all terms and conditions set out in the Plan will be incorporated by reference into and form part of any Option granted under the Plan.

Certificates for such Shares shall be issued and delivered to the Optionee within a reasonable period of time following the receipt of such notice and payment.

h.

Notwithstanding any of the provisions contained in the Plan or in any Option, the Corporation's obligation to issue Shares to a Participant pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be subject to:

completion of such registration or other qualification of such Shares or obtaining approval of such governmental or regulatory authority as counsel to the Corporation shall reasonably determine to be necessary or advisable in connection with the authorization, issuance or sale thereof;

admission of such Shares to listing on the Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Shares may then be listed; and

the receipt from the Participant of such representations, agreements and undertakings, including as to future dealings in such Shares, as counsel to the Corporation reasonably determines to be necessary or advisable in order to safeguard against the violation of the laws of any jurisdiction.

For the purposes of this Section 2.3 (j), Take Over Bid has the meaning assigned thereto in the Securities Act(British Columbia), but excludes an exempt take over bid pursuant to section 98 of that Act.

j.

Any Participant to whom an Option is granted under the Plan who subsequently ceases to hold the position in which he received such Option shall continue to be eligible to hold such Option as a Participant as long as he otherwise falls within the definition of Eligible Person in any capacity.

2.4.

Amendments to Option Grants

Subject to the policies of Exchange, the Board may amend any Option, provided that:

a.

3.3.

If and to the extent any Option granted under the Plan expires or is cancelled or terminated without having been exercised in whole or in part, the number of Shares in respect of which such Option expired or was cancelled or terminated shall be considered to be part of the pool of Shares available for Options under the Plan and may be made the subject of a further Option or Options granted pursuant to the Plan.

3.4.

The Corporation makes no representation or warranty as to whether it will be successful in maintaining its listing on the Exchange or whether it will be successful in obtaining a listing for the Shares on any other stock exchange or as to the future market value of the Shares issued on the exercise of any Option.
