the Board and may be at a discount to the prevailing price of the Common Shares,
however when the Common Shares are listed on a Market a discount shall only be
allowed where permitted by the rules of the Market and cannot be less than the

the market.

Term of Options

3.2                    
Subject to paragraph 3.6, the Expiry Date of an Option shall be the date so
fixed by the Board at the time the particular Option is granted, provided that
such date shall not be later than:

(a)          
for so long as the Company is classified as a Tier 2 issuer or equivalent
designation of the TSX Venture Exchange, the fifth anniversary of the later of

Resale

3.3

Vesting of Option Rights

All Options granted pursuant to the Plan will be subject to such vesting
requirements as may be prescribed by the Exchange, if applicable, or as may be

---

- 7 -

Board. All Options granted to Consultants performing investor
relations activities will vest in stages over 12 months with no more than
one-quarter of the Options vesting in any three month period. The Option
Commitment representing any Option subject to vesting will disclose the vesting
conditions. In the event of the sale of 100% of the Outstanding Issue or all of

will immediately become fully vested, unless otherwise specified in any other
agreement or the Option Commitment.

Grants to Employees, Consultants or Management Company
Employees

3.5                    
In connection with any Option granted to an Employee, a Consultant or a

Management Company Employee, as the case may be.

Limitation on Right to Exercise

3.6                    
No Option may be exercised after the time at which the Optionee ceases to be a
Service Provider, except as follows:

(a)           if
the Optionee dies, the personal representative of the Optionee may exercise the
Options belonging to the Optionee from time to time, to the extent to which the
Optionee could have exercised the same at the time of their death, no later than
the earlier of the Expiry Date and one year after the Optionee dies;

(b)           if
the Optionee is Retired or becomes Totally Disabled, the Optionee may exercise
their Options from time to time, to the extent to which the Optionee could have
exercised the same at the time of their Retirement or becoming Totally Disabled,
no later than the earlier of the Expiry Date and one year after the Optionee is
Retired or becomes Totally Disabled; or

(c)           if
the Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, otherwise than by reason of, as
applicable, a termination of office or employment for cause or for a breach of
contract, then the Option may be exercised by the Optionee, within 90 days after
the date the Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, unless the Board resolves
to permit a longer period for exercise and such longer period is permitted by
the rules of the Market.

Options are Non-Assignable and Non-Transferable

regulation applicable to the Plan, to shareholder approval, the Board may from
time to time retrospectively amend the Plan and, with the consent of the
affected Optionees, retrospectively amend the terms and conditions of any
Options which have been previously granted. For greater certainty, the policies
of the TSX Venture Exchange currently require that disinterested

---

shareholder approval be obtained for any reduction in the
Exercise Price of any Option held by an insider of the Company.

Adjustment of the Number of Optioned Shares

3.9                    
The number of Common Shares issuable on exercise of an Option will be adjusted
as follows:

(a)           in
the event of a subdivision of Common Shares from the date of the Plan, at any
time while an Option is in effect, into a greater number of Common Shares, the
Company will deliver at the time of purchase of Optioned Shares, in addition to
the number of Optioned Shares in respect of which the right to purchase is then
being exercised, such additional number of Common Shares as result from the
subdivision without an Optionee making any additional payment or giving any
other consideration;

(b)           in
the event of a consolidation of the Common Shares from the date of the Plan, at
any time while an Option is in effect, into a lesser number of Common Shares,
the Company will deliver and an Optionee will accept, at the time of purchase of
Optioned Shares, in lieu of the number of Optioned Shares in respect of which
the right to purchase is then being exercised, the lesser number of Common
Shares as result from the consolidation;

(c)           in
the event of any change of the Common Shares in class or in type from the date
of the Plan, at any time while an Option is in effect, the Company will deliver
at the time of purchase of Optioned Shares, the number of shares of the
appropriate class or type resulting from the change that the Optionee would have
been entitled to receive if the Optionee had exercised their Options immediately
prior to such change in class or type;

(d)           in
the event of a capital reorganization, reclassification or change of outstanding
equity shares (other than a change in the par value thereof) of the Company, a
consolidation, merger, arrangement or amalgamation, or a sale of substantially
all the property of the Company at any time while an Option is in effect, an
Optionee will have the right to purchase, in lieu of the Optioned Shares
receivable upon the exercise of the Option, the kind and amount of securities
and property receivable equal to the number of Optioned Shares that would have
been received if the Optionee had exercised their Option immediately prior to
such event. The subdivision or consolidation of Common Shares at any time
outstanding (whether with or without par value) will not be deemed to be a
capital reorganization or a reclassification of the capital of the Company for
the purposes of this section (d);

(e)           an
adjustment will take effect at the time of the event giving rise to the
adjustment, and the adjustments provided for in this section are cumulative;

(f)          
the Company is not be required to issue fractional shares in satisfaction of its
obligations under the Plan, and any fractional interest in a Common Share that
would, except for the provisions of this section (f), be deliverable upon the
exercise of an Option will be cancelled and not be deliverable by the Company;
and

---

- 9 -

(g)           if
any questions arise at any time with respect to the Exercise Price or number of
Optioned Shares deliverable upon exercise of an Option in any of the events set
out in this section, such questions will be conclusively determined by the
Companys auditors, or, if they decline to so act, any other firm of Chartered
Accountants, in Vancouver, British Columbia (or in the city of the Companys
principal executive office) that the Company may designate and who will have
access to all appropriate records and such determination will be binding upon
the Company and all Optionees.

cash or a certified cheque payable to the Company for the aggregate Exercise
Price for the Optioned Shares being acquired.

As soon as practicable after receipt of the notice of exercise described in
section 4.3 and payment in full for the Optioned Shares being acquired, the
Company will direct its transfer agent to issue a certificate to the Optionee
for the appropriate number of Optioned Shares. Such certificate issued will bear
a legend stipulating any resale restrictions required under applicable Canadian
and United States securities laws.

Condition of Issue

4.5                    
The issue of Common Shares by the Company pursuant to the exercise of an Option

bodies applicable to the issuance and distribution of such
Common Shares and to the listing requirements of any stock exchange or exchanges
on which the Common Shares may be listed. The Optionee agrees to comply with all

a Code Stock Option granted to a U.S. Participant who is a 10% Shareholder on
the applicable date of grant will terminate and no longer be exercisable no
later than five years after the applicable grant date;

(f)           No
Code Stock Option may be granted later than 10 years after the date the Company
adopted this Plan; and

(g)          
Any Option that is designated as a Code Stock Option but does not satisfy the
requirements applicable to a Code Stock Option will be deemed to not be a Code
Stock Option.

Amendment Code Stock Option

5.5                    
In the case of Code Stock Options, the Board will obtain shareholder approval of
a Plan amendment to the extent required by section 422 of the Code, and any
change or adjustment to an outstanding Code Stock Option will not, without the
consent of the Optionee,

be made in such a manner so as to constitute a modification
that would cause such Code Stock Option to fail to qualify as a Code Stock
Option.

U.S. Tax Withholding

5.6                    
In order to comply with all applicable U.S. federal and state income tax laws
and regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems appropriate to
ensure that all applicable U.S. federal and state payroll, withholding, income
or other taxes are withheld or collected from such U.S. Participant. For the
purposes of assisting a U.S. Participant in paying all or a portion of the U.S.
federal and state taxes to be withheld or collected upon exercise of an Option,
the Board, in its discretion and subject to such additional terms and conditions
as it may adopt, may permit a U.S. Participant to satisfy such tax obligation by
(a) electing to have the Company withhold a portion of the shares otherwise to
be delivered upon exercise of such Option having a fair market value equal to
the amount of such taxes (b) delivering to the Company shares (other than
Optioned Shares issuable upon exercise of such Option) having a fair market
value equal to the amount of such taxes, or (c) remitting cash or a cheque
payable to the Company. The election, if any, must be made on or before the date
that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.

Additional U.S. Tax Requirements

5.7                    
Options issued to U.S. Participants are intended to satisfy Section 409A of the
Code by satisfying an applicable exemption, which requires (in part) that the
Exercise Price be no less than the fair market value of the underlying Optioned
Shares, determined as of the date the Option is granted, regardless of whether
the Option is intended as a Code Stock Option. The Company reserves the right to
amend any Option (with or without consent from the Optionee) to the extent
necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an applicable exemption,
including (but not limited to) an amendment that adjusts the Exercise Price for
the Option.
