<PAGE>
      (b)    from and against any and all liability (except where such liability

             Corporation), losses, damages, costs, charges, expenses, fines  and

             officer  and/or director of the Corporation or of a Body Corporate;
             and

      (c)    in  particular,  and  without in any way limiting the generality of
             the  foregoing,  from  and  against  all  liabilities and penalties
             at any time imposed upon him or any claims at any time made against
             him by virtue of the Act,  the  Workers' Compensation Act, Alberta,
             the Bankruptcy Act, Canada, the Income  Tax  Act,  Canada  and  the

             business  of  the  Corporation  or  a  Body  Corporate.

2.          The  indemnities  in paragraph 1 shall continue and not terminate or
