                (ii)

              	
                the
                  Company shall deliver to each Buyer, certificates representing
                  the
                  Convertible Debentures and registered in the name of the Buyer
                  and in such
                  amounts indicated opposite such Buyer’s name on Schedule I, duly executed

      2.         BUYER’S
        REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

       

      (a)           Each
        Buyer represents and warrants, severally and not jointly, that:

       

      (i)           Investment
        Purpose.  Each Buyer is acquiring the Convertible Debentures and,
        upon conversion of Convertible Debentures, the Buyer will acquire the Conversion
        Shares then issuable, for its own account for investment only and not with
        a
        view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution
        thereof; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such
        Buyer reserves the right to dispose of the Conversion Shares at any time
        in
        accordance with or pursuant to an effective registration statement covering
        such
        Conversion Shares or an available exemption under the Securities
        Act.

       

      (ii)           Eligible
        Investor Status.  By completing the U.S. Accredited Investor
        Questionnaire (the “U.S. Questionnaire”) attached hereto as
        Schedule “A-1”, the Buyer  represents that it is both an “accredited
        investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D and a Qualified
        Institutional Buyer as defined in Rule 144A(a)(1) promulgated under the
        Securities Act and, by completing the Canadian certificate (the
“Canadian Certificate”) attached hereto as Appendix “A-2”, the
        Buyer represents that it is eligible to purchase the Convertible Debentures
        under the Securities Act (British Columbia) (the “B.C.
        Act”).

       

      (iii)           Reliance
        on Exemptions.  The Buyer understands that the Convertible
        Debentures are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions
        from the prospectus and registration requirements of United States federal
        and
        state securities laws and British Columbia securities laws and that the Company
        is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Buyer’s compliance
        with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and
        understandings of the Buyer set forth herein, in the Canadian Certificate
        and in
        the U.S. Questionnaire in order to determine the availability of such exemptions
        and the eligibility of the Buyer to acquire such securities.  The
        Company has advised the Buyer that the Company is relying on an exemption
        from
        the requirements to provide the Buyer with a prospectus and to sell the
        Convertible Debentures through a person registered to sell securities under
        the
Securities Act (British Columbia) (the “B.C. Act”) and
        as a consequence of acquiring Convertible Debentures pursuant to this exemption,
        certain protections, rights, and remedies

       


      
        
          
          

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      


      provided
        by the B.C. Act, including statutory rights of rescission or damages, will
        not
        be available to the Buyer.

       

      (iv)           Information.  Each
        Buyer and its advisors (and his or its counsel), if any, have been furnished
        with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the
        Company and information he deemed material to making an informed investment
        decision regarding his purchase of the Convertible Debentures and the Conversion
        Shares.  Each Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the
        opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its
        management.  Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence
        investigations conducted by such Buyer or its advisors, if any, or its
        representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Buyer’s right to rely on the
        Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 4
        below.  Each Buyer understands that its investment in the Convertible
        Debentures and the Conversion Shares involves a high degree of
        risk.  Each Buyer is in a position regarding the Company, which, based
        upon employment, family relationship or economic bargaining power, enabled
        and
        enables such Buyer to obtain information from the Company in order to evaluate
        the merits and risks of this investment.  Each Buyer has sought such
        accounting, legal and tax advice, as it has considered necessary to make
        an
        informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Convertible
        Debentures and the Conversion Shares.

       

      (v)           No
        Governmental Review.  Each Buyer understands that no United States
        federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has
        passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Convertible
        Debentures or the Conversion Shares, or the fairness or suitability of the
        investment in the Convertible Debentures or the Conversion Shares, nor have
        such
        authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the
        Convertible Debentures or the Conversion Shares.

       

      (vi)           Transfer
        or Resale.  Each Buyer understands that except as provided in the
        Registration Rights Agreement: (i) the Convertible Debentures have not been
        and
        are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities
        laws,
        and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A)
        subsequently registered thereunder, or (B) pursuant to an exemption from,
        or in
        a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities
        Act and in each case in accordance with applicable state and provincial
        securities laws and such Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion
        of
        counsel to the Company or of other counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company
        to the effect that such securities may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant
        to an exemption from such registration requirements; (ii) any sale of such
        securities made in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor
        rule thereto) (“Rule 144”) may be made only in
        accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not
        applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the
        seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an
        underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require
        compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules
        and
        regulations

       


      
        
          
          

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      


      of
        the
        SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other person is under
        any
        obligation to register such securities under the Securities Act or any state
        securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption
        thereunder.

       

      (vii)           Legends.  Each
        Buyer understands that the certificates or other instruments representing
        the
        Convertible Debentures and or the Conversion Shares shall bear a restrictive
        legend in substantially the following form (and a stop ­transfer order may
        be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

       

      THESE
        SECURITIES AND ANY SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES MAY BE CONVERTED
        HAVE
        NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE
        SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE UPON
        AN
        EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
        (THE
“SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT
        TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT
        TO
        AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE
        REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
        APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

       

      The
        legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company within three (3)
        business days shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder
        of the
        Conversion Shares upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required
        by
        state securities laws, (i) in connection with a sale transaction, provided
        the
        Conversion Shares are registered under the Securities Act and the holder
        has
        undertaken to sell the Conversion Shares pursuant to the effective registration
        statement or (ii) in connection with a sale transaction where there is no
        registration statement in effect as to the Conversion Shares, pursuant to
        an
        exemption from the applicable securities laws and after such holder provides
        the
        Company with an opinion of the Company’s counsel, reasonably acceptable to the
        Company, which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for
        opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public
        sale, assignment or transfer of the Conversion Shares may be made without
        registration under the Securities Act.

       

      (viii)          Authorization,
        Enforcement.  This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized,
        executed and delivered on behalf of such Buyer and is a valid and binding
        agreement of such Buyer enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
        as such
        enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable
        bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other
        similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable
        creditors’ rights and remedies.

       


      
        
          
          

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      


      (ix)           Receipt
        of Documents.  Each Buyer and his or her counsel has received and
        read in its entirety and acknowledges that he is familiar with:  (i)
        this Agreement and each representation, warranty and covenant set forth herein
        and in the Transaction Documents (as defined in section 4(a)(ii) herein);
        (ii)
        all due diligence and other information necessary to verify the accuracy
        and
        completeness of such representations, warranties and covenants; (iii) the
        Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2006; (iv) the
        Company’s Form 10-QSB for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2007 and (v)
        answers to all questions each Buyer submitted to the Company regarding an
        investment in the Company, and each Buyer has relied on the information
        contained therein and has not been furnished any other documents, literature,
        memorandum or prospectus.

       

      (x)           Due
        Formation of Corporate and Other Buyers.  If the Buyer(s) is a
        corporation, trust, partnership or other entity that is not an individual
        person, it has been formed and validly exists and has not been organized
        for the
        specific purpose of purchasing the Convertible Debentures and is not prohibited
        from doing so.

       

      (xi)           No
        Legal or Tax Advice From the Company.  Each Buyer acknowledges
        that it had the opportunity to review this Agreement and the transactions
        contemplated by this Agreement with his or its own legal counsel and investment
        and tax advisors.  Each Buyer is relying solely on such counsel and
        advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any
        of
        its representatives or agents for legal, tax or investment advice with respect
        to this investment, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the
        securities laws of any jurisdiction.

       

      (xii)           Further
        Representations by Foreign Buyers.  If the Buyer is not a U.S.
        Person (as defined below), the Buyer hereby represents that it  is in
        compliance with and in full observance of the laws of the Buyer’s jurisdiction
        in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the securities or any
        use of
        this Agreement, including: (i) the legal requirements of
        its  jurisdiction for the purchase of the securities, (ii) any foreign
        exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental
        or
        other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and
        other
        tax consequences, if any, which may be relevant to the purchase, holding,
        redemption, sale, or transfer of the securities.  The Buyer’s
        subscription and payment for, and the Buyer’s continued beneficial ownership of,
        the securities will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of
        the
        Buyer’s jurisdiction.  The term “U.S. Person” as used herein shall
        mean any person who is a citizen or resident of the United States or Canada,
        or
        any state, territory or possession thereof, including, but not limited to,
        any
        estate of any such person, or any corporation, partnership, trust or other
        entity created or existing under the laws thereof, or any entity controlled
        or
        owned by any of the foregoing.

       


      
        
          
          

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      


      3.        
        BRITISH COLUMBIA RESALE RESTRICTIONS

       

      (a)           The
        Buyer acknowledges that the Convertible Debentures are subject to resale
        restrictions in Canada and may not be traded in a jurisdiction of Canada
        except
        as permitted by National Instrument 45-102
        (“NI45-102”).

       

      (b)           Pursuant
        to NI45-102, a subsequent trade in the Conversion Shares will be a distribution
        subject to prospectus and registration requirements of applicable Canadian
        securities legislation (including the B.C. Act) unless certain conditions
        are
        met, including the following:

       

      (i)           The
        issuer is and has been a reporting issuer in a jurisdiction of Canada for
        the
        four months immediately preceding the trade;

       

      (ii)           at
        least four months have elapsed from the date that the Convertible Debentures
        were distributed;

       

      (iii)           the
        Certificate representing the Convertible Debentures has the following legend
        imprinted on it (the “Canadian Legend”) stating:

       

      “Unless
        permitted under securities legislation, the holder of this security must
        not
        trade the security before the date that is 4 months and one day after the
        later
        of (i) [the distribution date], and (ii) the date the issuer became a reporting
        issuer in any province or territory.”

       

      Provided
        that at the time of the trade,

       

      (iv)           the
        trade is not a control distribution (as defined in NI45-102);

       

      (v)           no
        unusual effort is made to prepare the market or to create a demand for the
        security that is the subject of the trade;

       

      (vi)           no
        extraordinary commission or consideration is paid to a person or company
        in
        respect of the trade; and

       

      (vii)           if
        the selling security holder is an insider or officer of the Company, the
        selling
        security holder has no reasonable grounds to believe that the Company is
        in
        default of securities legislation.

       

      (c)           By
        executing and delivering this Agreement, the Buyer will have directed the
        Company not to include the Canadian Legend on any certificates representing
        the
        Convertible Debentures and any Conversion Shares that are issued to the
        Buyer.

       

      (d)           As
        a consequence, the Buyer will not be able to rely on the resale provisions
        of
        NI45-102, and any subsequent trade in the Convertible Debentures and the
        Conversion Shares, if any, will be distribution subject to the prospectus
        and
        registration requirements of Canadian securities legislation, to the extent
        that
        the trade at that time is subject to any such Canadian securities
        legislation.

       


      
        
          
          

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      


      4.      REPRESENTATIONS
        AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.

       

      (a)           The
        Company represents and warrants as of the date hereof to each of the Buyers
        that, except as set forth in the SEC Documents (as defined herein) or in
        the
        Disclosure Schedule attached hereto (the “Disclosure
        Schedule”):

       

      (i)           Organization
        and Qualification.  The Company and its subsidiaries are
        corporations duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the
        laws
        of the jurisdiction in which they are incorporated, and have the requisite
        corporate power to own their properties and to carry on their business as
        now
        being conducted.  Each of the Company and its subsidiaries is duly
        qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing
        in
        every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it makes
        such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be
        so
        qualified or be in good standing would not have a material adverse effect
        on the
        Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

       

      (ii)           Authorization,
        Enforcement, Compliance with Other Instruments.  (i) The
        Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and
        perform this Agreement, the Convertible Debentures, and the Irrevocable Transfer
        Agent Agreement and any related agreements (collectively the
“Transaction Documents”) and to issue the Convertible
        Debentures and the Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof
        and
        thereof, (ii) the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by
        the
        Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby
        and
        thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Convertible
        Debentures and the issuance of the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion
        or
        exercise thereof, have been duly authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors
        and no further consent or authorization is required by the Company, its Board
        of
        Directors or its stockholders, (iii) the Transaction Documents have been
        duly
        executed and delivered by the Company, and (iv) the Transaction Documents
        constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against
        the Company in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability
        may be
        limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
        reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
        affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors’ rights and
        remedies.  The authorized officer of the Company executing the
        Transaction Documents knows of no reason arising from a lack of corporate
        power
        or authority that would prevent the Company from being in a position to file
        a
        registration statement as required under the Registration Rights Agreement
        or
        perform any of the Company’s other obligations under such document.

       

      (iii)           Capitalization.  The
        authorized capital stock of the Company consists of an unlimited number of
        shares of Common Stock and 100,000 shares of preferred stock with no par
        value,
        of which, as of the date hereof, 345,872,135 shares of Common Stock and 23,131
        shares of Series “A” preferred stock were issued and outstanding.  All
        of such outstanding shares have been validly issued and are fully paid and
        non-assessable.  No shares of Common Stock are subject to
        preemptive

        or
        any other similar rights or any liens or encumbrances suffered or permitted

        commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any of
        its
        subsidiaries is or may become bound to issue additional shares of capital
        stock
        of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or options, warrants, scrip, rights
        to
        subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to,
        or
        securities or rights convertible into, any shares of capital stock of the
        Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) there are outstanding debt securities
        and (iii) there are agreements or arrangements under which the Company or
        any of

        as
        fully paid and non-assessable securities, free from all taxes, liens and
        charges
        with respect to the issue thereof.  The Conversion Shares issuable
        upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures are duly authorized for issuance
        and when issued in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents,
        will
        be fully paid and non-assessable securities, free from all taxes, liens and
        charges imposed by the Company.

       

      (v)           No
        Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of the
        Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company
        of the
        transactions contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the

        decision, ruling or finding would (i) have a material adverse effect on the
        transactions contemplated hereby (ii) adversely affect the validity or
        enforceability of, or the authority or ability of the Company to perform

        or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any
        other jurisdiction.

       

      (e)           Entire
        Agreement, Amendments.  This Agreement supersedes all other prior
        oral or written agreements between the Buyer(s), the Company, their affiliates

        be entitled, without the prior approval of the Buyer(s), to issue any press
        release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions required
        under applicable securities or other laws or regulations (the Company shall

        its reasonable best efforts to consult the Buyer(s) in connection with any
        such
        press release or other public disclosure prior to its release and Buyer(s)
        shall
        be provided with a copy thereof upon release thereof).

       

      (k)           Further
        Assurances.  Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done
        and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver
        all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the
        other

        the event that the Closing shall not have occurred with respect to the Buyers
        on
        or before five (5) business days from the date hereof due to the Company’s or
        the Buyer’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7
        above (and the non-breaching party’s failure to waive such unsatisfied
        condition(s)), the non-breaching party shall have the option to terminate
        this
        Agreement with respect to such breaching party at the close of business on
        such
        date without liability of any party to any other party; provided, however,
        that
        if this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to this Section 9(l),
        the Company shall remain obligated to pay the fees and expenses described
        in
        Section 5(g) above.

        or on
        account of the transactions contemplated hereby.

       

      (n)           No
        Strict Construction.  The language used in this Agreement will be
        deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent,
