      Post-employment Non-competition Agreement. The
      Employee understands that during his employment by the Company he may have

      contribute his knowledge to any work that is competitive or functionally
      similar to any products of the Company, without prior consent from the

      after the Termination Date, reveal any Confidential Information or Trade
      Secrets of the Company to any person, firm, corporation, or entity. The
      Employee will not, during or after the Termination Date disclose the terms
      of this Agreement to anyone other than the Employee’s legal and financial
      advisors, or unless compelled by order of a court of competent
      jurisdiction or otherwise as agreed to by the Company.

	 	 
	7.

right to secure an injunction is not exclusive, and the Company may pursue any other remedies it has against the Employee for a breach or threatened breach of this condition, including the recovery of damages from the Employee,
and/or treating such breach as a repudiation of this Agreement entitling the Company to terminate any severance payments or issuance of common shares of the Company that the Employee was entitled to pursuant to Section 2.

	
	 	 
	
8. 		
Effect on Prior Agreements & Release. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements between the parties, and the Employee agrees that the severance and other consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement is in full
satisfaction of any claims the Employee may have had pursuant to previous agreements with the Company or under common law, arising from the employment or termination of his employment with the Company, or for any other reasons (hereinafter
collectively referred to as “Claims”). Accordingly, the Employee, on behalf of himself, his heirs, executors, administrators, agents and assigns (the “Releasor”), releases and discharges the Company, its officers, directors,
employees, predecessors, successors, assigns, and related or associated companies (the “Releasees”), from all Claims. Further, the Releasor agrees to indemnify the Releasees from any claims, charges, taxes, penalties or demands which may
be made by the Canada Revenue Agency on account of income tax which is payable by the Releasor in excess of income tax withheld and remitted on the Releasor’s behalf by the Releasees.

	
	 	 
	
9. 		
Severability. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect. If this Agreement is held invalid or cannot he enforced, then to the full
extent permitted by law any prior agreement between the Company (or any predecessor thereof) and the Employee shall be deemed reinstated as if this Agreement had not been executed.

	
	 	 
	
10. 		
Assumption of Agreement by Company's Successor and Assignees. The Company’s rights and obligations under this Agreement will endure to the benefit and be binding upon the parties’ successors and assigns.

	
	 	 
	
11. 		
Oral Modifications Not Binding. Oral modifications to this Agreement shall have no effect. This Agreement may be modified only by a written agreement signed by the party against whom enforcement of any waiver, change,
modification, extension, or discharge is sought.
