will bear a legend in substantially the form as follows:



 


"THE SECURITIES
REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES
ACT") OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING OR OTHERWISE HOLDING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE
BENEFIT OF TRANSITION THERAPEUTICS INC (THE "CORPORATION") THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S.
SECURITIES ACT, (C) PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 OR RULE 144A
THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, OR (D) IN ANOTHER TRANSACTION
THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES,
AFTER THE HOLDER HAS, IN THE CASE OF (C) OR (D) ABOVE, FURNISHED TO THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF
EXEMPTION, IN EITHER CASE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION. DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE “GOOD
DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN CANADA."


 


If the Corporation
is a “foreign issuer” within the meaning of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act at the time of transfer outside
the United States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S, a new certificate, which will constitute “good delivery”
in settlement of transactions on Canadian stock exchanges, will be made available to the Subscriber upon provision by the Subscriber
of a declaration in the form attached as Appendix A or in such other form that is acceptable to the Corporation, together with
any other evidence, which may include a legal opinion reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation, required
by the Corporation or the registrar and transfer agent for the Securities.


 


If any of the
Securities are being sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, the legend may be removed by delivery to the registrar
and transfer agent of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation, to the
effect that the legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the U.S. Securities Act or state securities laws.


 


		9.	It understands and acknowledges that the Corporation is not obligated to file and has no present
intention of filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) or with any state securities administrator
any registration statement in respect of resales of the Securities in the United States.



 




    	 	- 3 -	 



    


    

 


		10.	It understands and agrees that there may be material tax consequences to the Subscriber of an acquisition,
holding or disposition of the Securities. The Corporation gives no opinion and makes no representation with respect to the tax
consequences to the Subscriber under United States, state, local or foreign tax law of the undersigned’s acquisition, holding
or disposition of such Securities and the Subscriber acknowledges that it is solely responsible for determining the tax consequences
of its investment. In particular, no determination has been made whether the Corporation is, or will be, a “passive foreign
investment company” within the meaning of Section 1297 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.



 


		11.	It understands and agrees that the financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, which differ in some respects from United States generally accepted
accounting principles, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.



 


		12.	It consents to the Corporation making a notation on its records or giving instructions to any transfer
agent for the Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth and described in this Exhibit 1.



 


		13.	It understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” within the meaning of
Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act and that the U.S. Securities Act and the rules of the SEC provide that the Subscriber may
dispose of the Securities only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act or an exemption or
exclusion from registration under the U.S. Securities Act, and the Subscriber understands that the Corporation has no obligation
to register any of the Securities or to take action so as to permit sales pursuant to the U.S. Securities Act (including Rule 144
thereunder) or state securities laws. Accordingly, the Subscriber understands that absent registration, under the rules of the
SEC, the Subscriber may be required to hold the Securities indefinitely or to transfer the Securities in “private placements”
that are exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act, in which event the transferee will acquire “restricted securities”
subject to the same limitations as in the hands of the Subscriber. As a consequence, the Subscriber understands that it must bear
the economic risks of the investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time.



 


		14.	It understands and acknowledges that Rule 144 under the 1933 Act is not available for resales of
securities of issuers that have ever had (i) no or nominal operations and (ii) no or nominal assets other than cash and cash equivalents.
Therefore, if the Corporation were ever to be deemed to be, or to have ever been, such an issuer, Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities
Act may be unavailable for resales of the Securities, unless and until the Corporation has satisfied the applicable conditions.



 


		15.	It understands and acknowledges that the Corporation (i) is not obligated to remain a “foreign
issuer” (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act; (ii) may not, at the time the Securities are resold by
it or at any other time, be a foreign issuer, and (iii) may engage in one or more transactions that could cause the Corporation
not to be a foreign issuer. If the Corporation is not a foreign issuer at the time of any transfer of the Securities pursuant to
Rule 904 of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, the certificates representing the Securities may continue to bear the legend
contained above.



 


		16.	Upon execution of this Exhibit 1 by the undersigned Subscriber, this Exhibit 1 and Appendix A hereto
shall be incorporated into and form a part of the Subscription Agreement to which this Exhibit is attached.

405 under the U.S. Securities Act) of the Corporation, (2) the offer of such securities was not made to a person in the United

person acting on its behalf reasonably believed that the buyer was outside the United States, or (B) the transaction was executed
in, on or through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange or the Toronto Stock Exchange or another designated offshore securities
market as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act and neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf knows

nor any person acting on any of their behalf has engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts in the United States in
connection with the offer and sale of such securities, (4) the sale is bona fide and not for the purpose of "washing off"
the resale restrictions imposed because the securities are "restricted securities" (as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3)
under the U.S. Securities Act), (5) the seller does not intend to replace such securities with fungible unrestricted securities
and (6) the contemplated sale is not a transaction, or part of a series of transactions which, although in technical compliance
with Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the U.S. Securities
Act. Terms used herein have the meanings given to them by Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.
