its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission within one hundred fifty (150) days

registration or qualification for, all Registrable Shares by the time the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission under all applicable state
securities or “blue sky” laws of such domestic jurisdictions as any Holder covered by the Mandatory
Shelf Registration Statement shall request in writing, keep each such registration or qualification
or exemption effective during the period the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement is required to
be kept effective pursuant to Section 2(a)(i) and do any and all other acts and things that may be

related Prospectus or any document incorporated by reference therein contains any 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading (which information shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the
Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been
made) and (v) at the request of any such Holder, promptly to furnish to such Holder a reasonable

               (i) except as provided in Section 4, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by
Section 3(f)(iv), use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or

supplement or post-effective amendment;



               (j) use its commercially reasonable efforts (including seeking to cure in the Company’s

preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Registrable Shares



7









 







to be sold, which certificates shall not bear any transfer restrictive legends (other than as
required by the Company’s charter or by-laws), and to enable such Registrable Shares to be in such
denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request, which request shall be made
at least two (2) Business Days prior to any sale of the Registrable Shares.



          The Company may require the Holders to furnish to the Company such information regarding the
proposed distribution by such Holder as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in
writing or as shall be required to effect the registration of the Registrable Shares, and no Holder
shall be entitled to be named as a selling stockholder in the Mandatory Shelf Registration
Statement and no Holder shall be entitled to use the Prospectus forming a part thereof if such
Holder does not timely provide such information in writing to the Company. Each Holder further
agrees to furnish promptly to the Company in writing all information required from time to time to
make the information previously furnished by such Holder not misleading.




          Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any
event of the kind described in Section 3(f)(ii), 3(f)(iii) or 3(f)(iv), such Holder will
immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Shares pursuant to the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement until (i) any such stop order is vacated or (ii) if an event described in
Section 3(f)(iii) or 3(f)(iv) occurs, such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or
amended Prospectus. If so directed by the Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company (at the
reasonable expense of the Company) all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies
then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Shares current at the
time of receipt of such notice.




          4. Suspension Period.




               (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4, following the effectiveness of the Mandatory
Shelf Registration Statement (and the filings with any international, federal or state securities
commissions), the Company may direct the Holders, in accordance with Section 4(b), to suspend sales
of the Registrable Shares pursuant to the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement for such times as
the Company reasonably may determine is necessary and advisable (but in no event for more than an
aggregate of ninety (90) days in any consecutive twelve (12)-month period commencing on the date
the Lock-Up Agreement is terminated with respect to all of the Holders or more than sixty (60) days
in any consecutive ninety (90)-day period, except as a result of a review of any post-effective
amendment by the Commission prior to declaring any post-effective amendment to the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement effective, provided that the Company has used its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective), if any of the
following events shall occur: (i) the representative of the underwriters of an Underwritten
Offering of primary shares by the Company has advised the Company that the sale of Registrable
Shares pursuant to the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement would have a material adverse effect
on a public offering by the Company; (ii) an officer of the Company shall have determined in good
faith that (1) the offer or sale of any Registrable Shares would materially impede, delay or
interfere with any proposed financing, offer or sale of securities, acquisition, merger, joint
venture, farm-in, tender offer, business combination, corporate reorganization, consolidation or
other significant transaction involving the Company, (2) upon



8









 







the advice of counsel, the sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement would require disclosure of non-public material information not otherwise
required to be disclosed under applicable law, and (3) either (x) the Company has a bona fide
business purpose for preserving the confidentiality of such transaction, (y) disclosure would have
a material adverse effect on the Company or the Company’s ability to consummate such transaction,
or (z) the proposed transaction renders the Company unable to comply with Commission requirements,
in each case under circumstances that would make it impractical or inadvisable to cause the
Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement (or such filings) to become effective or to promptly amend
or supplement the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement on a post-effective basis, as applicable;
or (iii) an officer of the Company shall have determined in good faith, upon the advice of counsel,
that the Company is required by law, rule or regulation to supplement the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement or file a post-effective amendment to the Mandatory Shelf Registration
Statement in order to incorporate information into the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement for
the purpose of (1) including in the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement any prospectus required
under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (2) reflecting in the prospectus included in the
Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement any facts or events arising after the effective date of the
Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement (or of the most-recent post-effective amendment) that,
individually or in the aggregate, represents a material change in the information set forth
therein; or (3) including in the prospectus included in the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not disclosed in the Mandatory
Shelf Registration Statement or any material change to such information. Upon the occurrence of
any such suspension, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement to become effective or to promptly amend or supplement the
Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement on a post-effective basis or to take such action as is
necessary to make resumed use of the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement compatible with the
Company’s best interests, as applicable, so as to permit the Holders to resume sales of the
Registrable Shares as soon as possible.



               (b) In the case of an event that causes the Company to suspend the use of the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement (a “Suspension Event”), the Company shall give written notice (a
“Suspension Notice”) to the Holders to suspend sales of the Registrable Shares and such
notice shall state generally the basis for the notice and that such suspension shall continue only
for so long as the Suspension Event or its effect is continuing and the Company is using
commercially reasonable efforts to terminate suspension of the use of the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement as promptly as possible. No Holder shall effect any sales of the
Registrable Shares pursuant to the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement (or such filings) at any
time after it has received a Suspension Notice from the Company and prior to receipt of an End of
Suspension Notice (as defined below). If so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to
the Company (at the expense of the Company) all copies other than permanent file copies then in
such Holder’s possession of the Prospectus covering the Registrable Shares at the time of receipt
of the Suspension Notice. The Holders may recommence effecting sales of the Registrable Shares
pursuant to the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement (or such filings) following further notice
to such effect (an “End of Suspension Notice”) from the Company, which End of Suspension
Notice shall be given by the Company to the Holders in the manner described above promptly
following the conclusion of any Suspension Event and its effect.

          5. Indemnification and Contribution.




               (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Holder, (ii) each Person, if
any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the
Exchange Act) each Holder (a “Controlling Person”), and (iii) the respective officers,
directors, partners, members, employees, representatives and agents of any such Person or any
Controlling Person (any Person referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) may hereinafter be referred
to as a “Purchaser Indemnitee”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
judgments, actions, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, and other liabilities, including, as
incurred, reimbursement of all reasonable costs of investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending
any claim or action, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body,
commenced or threatened, including the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel to any
Purchaser Indemnitee, joint or several (the “Liabilities”), directly or indirectly related
to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus
(as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished to such Purchaser Indemnitee any
amendments or supplements thereto), or any preliminary Prospectus or any other document prepared by
the Company used to sell the Registrable Shares, 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 case of a Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), not
misleading, except insofar as such Liabilities arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information relating to any Purchaser Indemnitee furnished to the Company in
writing by such Purchaser Indemnitee expressly for use therein, (ii) any untrue statement contained
in or omission from a preliminary Prospectus if a copy of the Prospectus (as then amended or
supplemented, if the Company shall have furnished to or on behalf of the Holder participating in
the distribution relating to the relevant Registration Statement any amendments or supplements
thereto) was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder to the Person asserting any such
Liabilities who purchased Common Stock, if such Prospectus (or Prospectus as amended or
supplemented) is required by law to be sent or given at or prior to the written confirmation of the
sale of such Common Stock to such Person and the untrue statement contained in or omission from
such preliminary Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus (or the Prospectus as amended or
supplemented), or (iii) any sales by any Holder after the delivery by the Company to such Holder of
a Suspension Notice and before the delivery by the Company of an End of Suspension Notice. The
Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any claim,
proceeding (including any governmental investigation), or litigation of which it shall have become
aware in connection with the matters addressed by this Agreement which involves the Company or a
Purchaser Indemnitee. The indemnity provided for herein shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Purchaser Indemnitee.



               (b) In connection with the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement in which a Holder is
participating, such Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless
(i) the Company, (ii) each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and (iii) the respective officers, directors,
partners, members, representatives, employees and agents of any Person referred to in clause (i) or
(ii) above, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the



10









 







Company to each Purchaser Indemnitee, but only with reference to (i) untrue statements or
omissions or alleged untrue statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder expressly
for use in the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus, any amendment or supplement
thereto, or any preliminary Prospectus and (ii) any sales by any Holder after the delivery by the
Company to such Holder of a Suspension Notice and before the delivery by the Company of an End of
Suspension Notice. The liability of any Holder pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding
sentence shall in no event exceed the net proceeds received by such Holder from sales of
Registrable Shares giving rise to such obligations.



               (c) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation),
claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnity may
be sought pursuant to Section 5(a) or 5(b), such Person (the “Indemnified Party”), shall
promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying
Party”), in writing (to the extent legally advisable) of the commencement thereof (but the
failure to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any Liability which it may
have under this Section 5, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by
the failure to give notice), and the Indemnifying Party, upon request of the Indemnified Party,
shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to represent the Indemnified
Party and any others the Indemnifying Party may reasonably designate in such proceeding and shall
assume the defense of such proceeding and pay the fees and expenses actually incurred by such
counsel related to such proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any such proceeding, any
Indemnified Party may retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at
the expense of such Indemnified Party, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party
shall have mutually agreed in writing to the contrary, (ii) the Indemnifying Party failed within a
reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action to assume the defense and employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, or (iii) the named parties to any such action
(including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party,
or any affiliate of the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been reasonably
advised by counsel that, either (x) there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which
are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or such affiliate of
the Indemnifying Party or (y) a conflict may exist between such Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party or such affiliate of the Indemnifying Party, in which event the Indemnifying
Party may not assume or direct the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party, it
being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such
action or separate but substantially similar or related actions arising out of the same general
allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of
attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Indemnified Parties, which firm shall be
designated in writing by those Indemnified Parties who sold a majority of the Registrable Shares
sold by all such Indemnified Parties and any such separate firm for the Company, the directors, the
officers and such control Persons of the Company as shall be designated in writing by the Company.
The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without
its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, but if settled
with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party agrees
to indemnify any Indemnified Party from and against any Liability by reason of such settlement or
judgment to the extent provided in this Section 5 without reference to this sentence. No



11









 







Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect
any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is
or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified
Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all
Liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.



               (d) If the indemnification provided for in Section 5(a) or 5(b) is for any reason held to be
unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Liabilities referred to therein (other than
by reason of the exceptions provided therein) or is insufficient to hold harmless a party
indemnified thereunder, then each Indemnifying Party under such sections, in lieu of indemnifying
such Indemnified Party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such Liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative benefits of the Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Indemnifying Parties
on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Liabilities, or
(ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i)
above but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Party, as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand,
and any Purchaser Indemnitees, on the other, shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by such
Purchaser Indemnitees and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.



               (e) The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if such Indemnified Parties
were treated as one entity for such purpose), or by any other method of allocation that does not
take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 5(d). The amount paid or
payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Liabilities referred to in Section 5(d) shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable legal or other
expenses actually incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending
any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, in no event shall a
Purchaser Indemnitee be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which proceeds
received by such Purchaser Indemnitee from sales of Registrable Shares exceeds the amount of any
damages that such Purchaser Indemnitee has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. For purposes of this Section 5, each
Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the
Exchange Act) a Holder shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, as the case may
be, and each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or
Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) the Company, and each officer, director, partner, member,
employee, representative, agent or manager of the Company shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Company. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of
notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a
claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties, notify each party or parties
from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not
relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they
may have under this



12









 







Section 5 or otherwise, except to the extent that any party is materially prejudiced by the
failure to give notice. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act), shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.



               (f) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 5 will be in addition
to any Liability which the indemnifying parties may otherwise have to the indemnified parties
referred to above. Each Purchaser Indemnitee’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this
Section 5 are not joint but are several in the proportion that the number of Registrable Shares
sold by such Purchaser Indemnitee under the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement bears to the
number of Registrable Shares sold by all Purchaser Indemnitees under the Mandatory Shelf
Registration Statement.



          6. Termination of the Company’s Obligations. The Company shall have no further
obligations pursuant to this Agreement at such time as no Registrable Shares are outstanding after
their original issuance, provided, however, that the Company’s obligations under
Sections 5 and 7 (and any related definitions) shall remain in full force and effect following such
time.




          7. Miscellaneous.




               (a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company of any of its obligations under
this Agreement, each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein,
or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its
rights under this Agreement. Subject to Section 5, the Company agrees that monetary damages would
not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law
would be adequate.



               (b) Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may not be given,
without the written consent of the Company and Holders beneficially owning a majority of the
Registrable Shares; provided, however, that for purposes of this Agreement,
Registrable Shares owned, directly or indirectly, by an entity that is an Affiliate of the Company
due to the Company’s owning an interest in such entity shall not be deemed to be outstanding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to or departure from the provisions hereof with
respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of a Holder whose securities are being
sold pursuant to the Mandatory Shelf Registration Statement and that does not directly or
indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders may be given by such
Holder; provided that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified or
supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence.



               (c) Notices. All notices and other communications, provided for or permitted
hereunder shall be made in writing and delivered by facsimile or other electronic means (with
receipt confirmed), overnight courier or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
addressed as follows:



13









 






               (i) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by the Holder to the Company in
writing; and




               (ii) if to the Company, at the offices of the Company at Suite 1000, 444 — 7th Avenue
S.W., Calgary, Alberta, T2P 0X8, Attention: Secretary and Treasurer.



               (d) Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto and
shall inure to the benefit of each Holder. The Company agrees that the Holders shall be third
party beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder by the Company, and each Holder shall have the
right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or
advisable to protect its rights hereunder; provided, however, that such Holder
fulfills all responsibilities and obligations hereunder as if it is a signatory hereto.



               (e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.



               (f) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AS APPLIED TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE
OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK OR THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR SITTING IN NEW YORK
COUNTY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT,
AND IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY,
THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR
HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY
SUCH COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS
BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.



               (g) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in
full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties
hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to
achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties
hereto that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions,



14









 







covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared
invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.



               (h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Existing Registration Rights
Agreement, is intended by the parties hereto as a final expression of their agreement and is
intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties
hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and therein and, for the avoidance of
doubt, the Company’s obligations under this Agreement shall exist notwithstanding the last sentence
of Section 2.5(a)(i) in the Existing Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) this Agreement is a
valid agreement among the parties hereto notwithstanding Section 4.8 in the Existing Registration
Rights Agreement.



               (i) Registrable Shares Held by the Company or its Affiliates. Whenever the consent or
approval of Holders of a specified percentage of Registrable Shares is required hereunder,
Registrable Shares held by the Company or entities that are Affiliates of the Company due to the
Company’s owning an interest in such entities shall not be counted in determining whether such
consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.



               (j) Survival. The indemnification and contribution obligations under Section 5 shall
survive the termination of the Company’s obligations under Section 2.



               (k) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only
and shall not limit or otherwise affect the provisions of this Agreement. All references made in
this Agreement to “Section” refer to such Section of this Agreement, unless expressly stated
otherwise.



               (l) Adjustment for Stock Splits, etc. Wherever in this Agreement there is a reference
to a specific number of shares with respect to any securities, then upon the occurrence of any
subdivision, combination, or stock dividend of such shares, the specific number of shares with
respect to any securities so referenced in this Agreement shall automatically be proportionally
adjusted to reflect the effect on the outstanding shares of such class or series of stock by such
subdivision, combination, or stock dividend.
