8.  RESALE RESTRICTIONS.

8.1  The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Purchaser's
Special Warrants and, if the Purchaser's Special Warrants are exercised
before the Qualification Date, the Unit Shares and Unit Warrants issued
pursuant thereto, will be subject to certain resale restrictions under
applicable securities legislation and that the certificates representing
the Securities will bear a legend to that effect.  The Purchaser also
acknowledges that its has been advised to consult with its own legal
advisors regarding the applicable resale restrictions and that the
Purchaser is solely responsible (and neither the Issuer nor the Agent is
in any manner responsible) for complying with such restrictions.  The
Purchaser covenants and agrees to sell, assign or transfer the
Securities only in accordance with the Securities Acts and such legend.
THE PURCHASER FURTHER UNDERSTANDS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE ISSUER IS
NOT CURRENTLY A "REPORTING ISSUER" UNDER CANADIAN SECURITIES LAWS AND
THAT THE SPECIAL WARRANTS AND THE UNIT SHARES AND UNIT WARRANTS ISSUABLE
UPON THE EXERCISE OF THE SPECIAL WARRANTS MAY NOT BE SOLD IN THE
QUALIFYING PROVINCES EXCEPT PURSUANT TO EXEMPTIONS FROM THE PROSPECTUS
REQUIREMENTS OF THE CANADIAN SECURITIES LAWS.

8.2  The offer and sale of the Special Warrants has been made, and the
sale of shares of common stock upon exercise of Unit Warrants will be
made, in reliance upon Regulation S promulgated by the SEC under the
Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act").  Therefore, the Special Warrants,
Unit Shares, Unit Warrants, and shares of common stock issuable upon
exercise of the Unit Warrants will be "restricted securities" and as
such may be resold only in accordance with an effective registration
statement filed under the Act or compliance with Rule 144 under the 1933
Act.  Regulation S requires that, for a period of 40 days following the
closing of the offering, no offer or sale of a Special Warrant, Unit
Warrant, Unit Share, or share of common stock issuable upon exercise of
a Unit Warrant may be made to a United States Person, as that term is
defined in Regulation S, or for the account of a United States Person.
Regulation S also requires that each Special Warrant and Unit Warrant
bear a legend stating that the Special Warrant and Unit Warrants, as the
case may be, and the securities issuable upon its exercise have not been
registered under the 1933 Act and that the Warrant may not be exercised
by or on behalf of the United States Person unless such a registration
is effective or an exemption from registration is available.

Each person exercising a Special Warrant or Unit Warrant must provide
the Issuer with either (i) written certification that it is not a United
States Person and that the Warrant is not being exercised on behalf of a
United States Person, or (ii) a written opinion of counsel satisfactory
to the Issuer that the issuance of securities upon exercise of the
Special Warrant or Unit Warrant has been registered under the 1933 Act
and any applicable States securities law or is exempt from registration.
Regulation S also provides for the resale of securities which are issued
and outstanding.  As noted above, the Special Warrants, Unit Shares,
Unit Warrants, and shares issuable upon exercise of the Unit Warrants
may be resold only in compliance with Regulation S or pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or an exemption from
the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.  Rule 904 of Regulation S
provides that a resale of an outstanding security may be made pursuant
thereto if the offer and sale of the security are made in an offshore
transaction and if no directed selling effort is made in the United
States with regard to the securities to be sold by the seller, an
affiliate, or any person acting on their behalf.  An offer or sale of
securities is made in an "offshore transaction" if the offer is not made
to a person in the United States and either (i) at the time the buy
order is originated, the buyer is outside the United States, or the
seller and any person acting on its behalf have good reason to believe
that the buyer is outside the United States; and (ii) the transaction is
executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated offshore
securities market and neither the seller nor any person acting on its
behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in
the United States.  Offers and sales of securities specifically targeted
at identifiable groups of United States citizens abroad shall, in no
event, be deemed to be made in an offshore transaction.  Rule 904
imposes additional limitations on resales by dealers and persons
receiving selling concessions and affiliates of the issuer.
Each certificate evidencing a Special Warrant and Unit Warrant will bear
the following legend:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SECURITIES
ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE OF SUCH SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, NOR QUALIFIED UNDER OR
PURSUANT TO THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE NOR UNDER OR PURSUANT TO
THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY PROVINCE IN CANADA, AND ARE BEING OFFERED AND
SOLD IN RELIANCE ON EXEMPTIONS FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF
SUCH LAWS.  THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS OF
TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT
AS PERMITTED UNDER SUCH LAWS PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION
THEREFROM. INDEMNITY.

8.3  The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and
the Agent and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisers and shareholders from and against any and all loss, liability,
claim, damage and expense whatsoever including, but not limited to, any
and all fees, costs and expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation,
administrative proceeding or investigation commenced or threatened or
any claim whatsoever arising out of or based upon any representation or
warranty of the Purchaser contained herein or in any document furnished
by the Purchaser to the Issuer or the Agent in connection herewith being
untrue in any material respect or any breach or failure by the Purchaser
to comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Purchaser herein or
in any document furnished by the Purchaser to the Issuer or the Agent in
connection herewith.

9.  PROSPECTUS/REGISTRATION STATEMENT.

9.1  The Issuer has agreed with the Agent to prepare and file a final
Prospectus and to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain receipts
therefor from the Commissions and to have an Effective Registration with
respect to the Underlying Securities on or before the date (the
"Qualification Deadline") which is 150 days following the Closing (if
such day is not a business day, then the next following business day).

9.2  If either receipts for the final Prospectus have not been issued
by the applicable Commissions or an Effective Registration has not
occurred before the Qualification Deadline, the Special Warrants shall

Share) and 0.55 Unit Warrants (rather than one-half of one Unit Warrant)

9.3  Until each of the conditions set forth in Section 10.2 have been
satisfied, 15% of the gross proceeds received in connection with the
Private Placement in Canada will be maintained in Escrow by Pacific
Corporate Trust Company or such other trustee as may be mutually agreed
to between the Issuer and the Agent.

10.  COMMISSION TO THE AGENT.

10.1  The Purchaser acknowledges that the Agent will receive from the
Issuer a commission in an amount equivalent to 8% of the gross proceeds
raised from the Private Placement in Canada provided, however, that the
Agent shall receive a commission equivalent to 4% of the gross proceeds
raised from the Private Placement in Canada from those persons
identified on the President's List as provided by the Issuer and as
defined in the Agency Agreement and a Fiscal Advisory Fee equal to 4% of
the gross proceeds raised from the Private Placement in the United
States.  The Purchaser further acknowledges that the Agent will also
receive Agent's Warrants (as defined in the Agency Agreement) which will
be exercisable into Agent's Compensation Options (as defined in the
Agency Agreement) and will entitle the Agent to purchase such number of
Units of the Issuer as is equal to 10% of the Special Warrants sold
under the Private Placement in the aggregate, inclusive of those Special
Warrants sold in the United States, and is further entitled to
reimbursement of its expenses in connection with the Private Placement.

10.2  The Purchaser acknowledges that the Agent, its directors,
officers, employees, shareholders, affiliates and associates may, from
time to time, hold positions in securities of the Issuer and may
purchase Special Warrants.

11.  CONDITIONAL UPON REGULATORY APPROVAL.

11.1  Without limitation, this subscription and the transactions
contemplated hereby are conditional upon and subject to the Issuer
receiving all necessary regulatory approvals under applicable Securities
Laws relating to this subscription and the Private Placement.

12.  CONTRACTUAL RIGHT OF ACTION.

12.1  In the event that the Purchaser becomes entitled under the BC Act,
the Alberta Act, the Ontario Act or the Quebec Act to the remedy of
rescission by reason of the Prospectus or any amendment thereto
containing a misrepresentation, then, subject to any available defences
and limitation periods under applicable securities legislation, the
Purchaser will be entitled to rescission not only of the exercise of the
Special Warrants purchased, but also of its subscription hereunder, and
will be entitled in connection with such rescission to a full refund
from the Issuer of all consideration paid to the Issuer on acquisition
of such Special Warrants.

13.  NO REVOCATION.

13.1  The Purchaser agrees that this offer is made for valuable
consideration and may not be withdrawn, cancelled, terminated or revoked
by the Purchaser.
