The Consultant shall be responsible for deducting all applicable federal and provincial income taxes, Canada Pension Plan deductions and Employment Insurance premiums on any remuneration provided by the Company to the Consultant and for remitting same, if applicable, to Canada Revenue Agency or such other governmental authorities as prescribed by law. |
|-----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (h)   | If the Manager dies during the Term of this Agreement all options which have been granted to that date will vest and become exercisable pursuant to Schedule “B”. |

|-------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (c)   | The Company may at any time terminate the services of the Consultant and this Agreement for any just cause that would in law permit the Company to, without notice, terminate the Consultant, in which event the Consultant shall not be entitled to the payment in sections 5(b)(ii) or (iii), but shall be entitled to receive the full amount of the Consultant's fees due through to the date of the notice of termination as set out in section 5(b)(i). |
