		2	REMUNERATION
                                            AND BENEFITS



 


		(a)	Base
                                            Salary.



 


		(i)	The
                                            Company will pay the Executive an annual salary of C$335,000, for full-time performance of
                                            the Services (the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary is payable in a manner
                                            that is consistent with the Company’s usual payroll practices for senior executives
                                            as amended from time to time.



 


		(ii)	The

                                            committee of the Company in accordance with the Company’s annual performance and compensation
                                            review process, including consideration of the Company’s market capitalization and
                                            financial stability. Any increase in Base Salary is at the sole discretion of the Company.
                                            An increase in the Base Salary in any year or any number of years does not entitle the Executive
                                            to any increase in the Base Salary in any subsequent year.



 


		(iii)	The
                                            Company may decrease the Base Salary, but only in the case of an across-the-board salary
                                            reduction affecting all senior executives of the Company and with any such reduction being
                                            of similar magnitudes across all executives. Any such reduction shall not constitute a constructive
                                            dismissal of the employment of the Executive by the Company. For purposes of section 7(c)(i),
                                            Base Salary will not be reduced in the event of a reduction of salary under this section
                                            2(a)(iii) and for purposes of section 5(a), Base Salary will not be reduced by more than
                                            10% in the event of a reduction of salary under this section 2(a)(iii).

                                            The Executive is eligible to be considered for an annual discretionary bonus which will be
                                            subject to the approval of the Board and the compensation committee of the Company, in their
                                            sole discretion, on an annual basis in accordance with the Company’s annual performance
                                            and compensation review process, including consideration of the Company’s market capitalization
                                            and financial stability. Payment of a bonus in any one year or any number of years will not
                                            entitle the Executive to any payment of a bonus in any subsequent year. The target annual
                                            discretionary bonus for the Executive is equal to 35% of Base Salary (the “Target

		5	TERMINATION
                                            WITHOUT JUST CAUSE

pursuant to section 4(e), the Company shall pay the Executive an amount (the “Severance Amount”) calculated as follows:

                                            Company to the Executive; and



 


		(b)	in
                                            addition to the amount payable under section 5(a), a bonus payment equal to the average of
                                            the actual annual bonus payments, if any, made to the Executive from the previous 3 calendar
                                            years preceding the Date of Termination, pro-rated for the then current calendar year up
                                            to and including the Date of Termination.



 


The
Company shall pay the Severance Amount within 5 business days after the date that the Company receives the signed Release as per section
4(e) of this Agreement, provided that the Company, in its sole discretion, may pay the Severance Amount by way of one or more lump sum
payments, by way of salary continuance or by a combination of both.


 


		6	RESIGNATION
                                            WITHOUT GOOD REASON



 


The
Executive may terminate their employment by providing to the Company Notice of Termination of their employment at least 90 days prior
to the effective date of resignation. During such notice period, the Executive shall continue to diligently perform all of the Executive’s
duties. Upon receipt of a Notice of Termination from the Executive pursuant to this section 6, the Company may, at its option:


 





		(a)	direct
                                            that the Executive cease providing part or all of the Services and such direction will not
                                            constitute an express or constructive termination of the employment of the Executive by the
                                            Company, provided that the Company will remain bound to pay the Base Salary for the balance
                                            of the notice period provided by the Executive; or


 






    Page 7 of 29


     


    




 


		(b)	terminate
                                            the employment of the Executive at any time within the notice period, including where the
                                            Company first elects to proceed with the option under section 6 (a) above, in which case,
                                            unless the termination is for Just Cause, the Company will pay the Executive only the lesser
                                            of either (i) an amount equal to the Base Salary from the date the Executive provided the
                                            Notice of Termination until the earlier of the date of resignation or retirement selected
                                            by the Executive and 90 days from the date the Executive provided the Notice of Termination,
                                            and (ii) the ESA Entitlement.



 


For
clarity, if the Company elects to terminate the employment of the Executive after receiving Notice of Termination from the Executive,
the Company will not owe the Executive the Severance Amount and all benefits coverage will cease as of the Date of Termination set out
in the Employer’s Notice of Termination.

		(a)	Withholdings
                                            and Currency. All payments made by the Company to the Executive under this Agreement
                                            will be in Canadian dollars and subject to tax or other amounts required to be withheld by
                                            the Company under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement is to be construed to obligate
                                            the Company to design or implement any compensation arrangement in a way that minimizes tax
                                            consequences for the Executive.



 


		(b)	Remedies.
                                            The Executive acknowledges that damages cannot be an adequate remedy to compensate the Company
                                            for any actual or anticipatory breach by the Executive of section 1(e) of this Agreement
                                            or Exhibits B and C. In the event of a breach or anticipatory breach by the Executive of
                                            the provisions of section 1(e) of this Agreement or the Exhibits B and C, the Company will
                                            be entitled to interim, interlocutory and permanent injunctions restraining the Executive
                                            from such breach. Nothing contained herein will be construed as prohibiting the Company from
                                            pursuing any other remedies available at law or equity for such breach or anticipatory breach
                                            of this Agreement including the Exhibits nor limiting the amount of damages recoverable in
                                            the event of a breach or anticipatory breach by the Executive of the provisions of section
                                            1(e) of this Agreement or the Exhibits B and C. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
                                            the Executive acknowledges that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive
                                            of any of the provisions of section 1(e) of this Agreement or the Exhibits B and C, the damages
                                            of the Company may exceed the amount paid to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement. If
                                            the Executive breaches any provision of this Agreement, then despite any term or condition
                                            to the contrary and without limitation to any remedy the Company may be entitled to, any
                                            entitlement of the Executive to remuneration that has not yet been paid or provided is immediately
                                            terminated except and only to the extent that the compensation is minimally owing under the
                                            ESA or any other applicable legislation.



 





		(c)	Assignment
                                            and Benefit. The Executive will not assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or
                                            obligations hereunder. The Company may assign this Agreement to any successor to the Company
                                            and in the event of such an assignment the provisions hereof will inure to the benefit of,
                                            and be binding upon, each successor of the Company, whether the successor arises by merger,
                                            consolidation or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets. This Agreement shall
                                            inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s successors and legal
                                            representatives.

		(d)	Non-Waiver.
                                            Failure on the part of either party to complain of any act or failure to act of the other
                                            of them or to declare the other party in default of this Agreement, irrespective of how long
                                            such failure continues, will not constitute a waiver by such party of their rights hereunder
                                            or of the right to then or subsequently declare a default.

                                            If any provision in this Agreement including the Exhibits is found to be invalid or unenforceable,
                                            then to the greatest extent permitted by law the scope of any unenforceable provision will
                                            be deemed modified and diminished by the Parties to the minimum extent necessary to render
                                            such provision valid and enforceable, and in any event the invalidity or unenforceability
                                            of any such provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision
                                            of this Agreement including the Exhibits.



 


		(f)	Entire

                                            and supersedes any and all agreements, understandings, warranties or representations of any
                                            kind, written or oral, express or implied, including any relating to the nature of the position
                                            or its duration including the Original Employment Agreement, and each of the parties releases
                                            and forever discharges the other of and from all manner of actions, causes of action, claim
                                            or demands whatsoever under or in respect of any agreement.



 


		(g)	Survival.
                                            The provisions of sections 1(f) and 3 to 9 inclusive this Agreement and the Exhibits survive

                                            to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of the Parties as expressed in this Agreement.

any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court of competent jurisdiction in British Columbia sitting in Vancouver any interim or
provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party.

decision of the Arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Parties and their respective successors and assigns and there shall be no
right to appeal such decision, whether on a question of law, a question of fact, or a mixed question of law or fact.

                                            to the Executive at the last address the Executive has filed in writing with the Company
                                            or, in the case of the Company, at its main offices, attention to the Corporate Secretary.

                                            to obtain independent legal advice in connection with this Agreement, and further acknowledges
                                            that the Executive has read, understands, and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and

                                            This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by each party on separate
                                            counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered is to be taken to
                                            be an original; but those counterparts together constitute one and the same document. PDF,

                                            conceived, developed or reduced to practice prior to the execution of this Exhibit B to which
                                            they have any right, title or interest, and which relate to the Business of the Company.

the scope of these covenants and obligations as to time, activity and geographic area, the definitions of Competing Business, Competitive
Duties, Prohibited Work, Restricted Period, and Restricted Territory are reasonable and give only such reasonable restrictions as are
minimally necessary to protect the legitimate proprietary interests of the Company. The Executive further agrees and acknowledges that
the Company may notify any employer or prospective employer of the Executive, and any other legal entity with whom the Executive has
had or is having direct or indirect dealings with, of the restrictions set out in this Exhibit C when reasonably required by the Company
to protect its legitimate business interests.


 


The
Employee agrees that should any of the restrictions contained in this Exhibit C be found to be unreasonable to any extent by a court
of competent jurisdiction adjudicating upon the validity of the restriction, whether as to the scope of the restriction, the area of
the restriction or the duration of the restriction, then such restriction shall be reduced to that which is in fact declared reasonable
by such court, or a subsequent court of competent jurisdiction, requested to make such a declaration, in order to ensure that the intention
of the parties is given the greatest possible effect.

		(a)	The
                                            covenants in this Exhibit C apply regardless of which Party initiated the termination of
                                            the Executive’s employment or the reasons for the termination of the Executive’s
