Legends.

Except as set forth below, such Buyer understands that the Common Stock and the stock certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such Common Stock, Warrant Shares and stock certificates):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE 1933 ACT), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THESE SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION; (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE 1933 ACT; (C) IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER THE 1933 ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS; OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAWS AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE OFFER AND SALE OF SECURITIES, AND THE HOLDER HAS, PRIOR TO SUCH SALE, FURNISHED TO THE CORPORATION, IF REASONABLY REQUESTED BY THE CORPORATION, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, OF RECOGNIZED STANDING, OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM.

5

---



(i) Provided, the legend above may be removed by providing either (A) a declaration to the Companys transfer agent in substantially the form as set out in Exhibit D to the effect that the sale of the Common Stock and/or Warrant Shares, as applicable, is being made in compliance with Rule 904 or (B) a request from the Company to the Companys transfer agent for removal if (x) such Buyer has provided to the Company, if reasonably requested, an opinion of counsel or other evidence of exemption, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such Common Stock and/or Warrant Shares to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, or (y) such Buyer has provided the Company with reasonable assurances that the Common Stock and/or Warrant Shares, as applicable, can be sold, assigned or transferred in compliance with Rule 144.  In any event set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company shall be obligated to promptly reissue or cause the transfer agent to promptly reissue unlegended certificate(s); provided, however, that it is agreed that no opinion of counsel shall be required for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 904 under the 1933 Act.

Except as set forth below, such Buyer also understands that the following restrictive legends will be required under Canadian Securities Laws and the policies of the TSX to be placed on the certificates representing the Common Stock or Warrant Shares:

UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THE SECURITIES SHALL NOT TRADE THE SECURITIES BEFORE APRIL 4, 2003.

THE COMMON SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE LISTED ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE; HOWEVER, THE SAID SECURITIES CANNOT BE TRADED THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF SUCH EXCHANGE SINCE THEY ARE NOT FREELY TRANSFERABLE, AND CONSEQUENTLY ANY CERTIFICATE REPRESENTING SUCH SECURITIES IS NOT GOOD DELIVERY IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE.

(ii)  Provided, the legends above may be removed in the event Buyer has provided the Companys transfer agent the declaration in substantially the form as set out in Exhibit D or the Company has instructed the transfer agent to remove the legends pursuant subparagraph (i) above, in either case on or after the date that is four months and one day following the Closing Date.

Such Buyer is a resident of that country, state or province specified in its address on the Schedule of Buyers.

3.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.

The Company represents and warrants to BVF and each of the other Buyers that:

(a)

Organization and Qualification.

The Company is in good standing under the Canadian Securities Laws and its Subsidiaries (which for purposes of this Agreement means any entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, owns a majority of the capital stock or other equity or similar interests or owns capital stock or holds an equity or similar interest which ownership entitles the Company to elect a majority of the board of directors or similar governing body of such entity) are corporations or limited liability companies duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are incorporated or organized.  The Company and its Subsidiaries have the requisite corporate or other power and authorization 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 corporation or limited liability company to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or 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.  As used in this Agreement, Material Adverse Effect means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations, prospects or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries, if any, taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith, or on the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents (as defined below).  The Company has one inactive (wholly owned) subsidiary, Micrologix Biotech (USA) Inc., a Delaware corporation, and does not, directly or indirectly, own capital stock or hold an equity or similar interest in any other entity.

(b)

(q)

Right of Participation.

Subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 4(q), the Company hereby grants to BVF, provided it then owns Securities representing at least five percent (5%) of the Companys Common Stock, a right of participation with respect to future sales by the Company of New Securities (as hereinafter defined). Each time the Company proposes to issue, in a bona fide financing, any shares of, or securities convertible into or exercisable for any voting shares of, any class of its capital stock other than Permissible Redeemable, Convertible, Non-Voting Preferred Stock (New Securities), the Company shall first offer such New Securities to BVF in accordance with the following provisions:

(i)

The Company shall provide written notice (Notice) to BVF stating:

(A)

its bona fide intention to issue such New Securities,

(B)

the number of such New Securities to be issued, and

(C)

the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to issue such New Securities.

(ii)

Within 5 business days after delivery of the Notice, BVF may elect to purchase, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up to that portion of such New Securities that equals the proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock then held by BVF bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then outstanding; provided, however, if such New Securities are issued for consideration other than cash, BVF shall have the right to purchase its pro rata share in cash in an amount equivalent, on a per share basis, to the consideration to be received by the Company set forth in the Notice.

(iii)

The Company may, during the 60-day period following the delivery of the Notice referred to in subsection 4(q)(ii) hereof, issue the New Securities, less any portion to which BVF is entitled to purchase pursuant to subsection 4(q)(ii) hereof, to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than those specified in the Notice.  If the Company does not enter into such an agreement for the sale of the New Securities within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within 60 days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and any New Securities shall not be issued unless reoffered to BVF in accordance herewith.

For greater certainty, the right of participation in this Section 4(q) shall not be applicable to:

27

---





(i)

the issuance or sale of Common Stock (or options therefor) to employees, directors, consultants or advisors of the Company (for the primary purpose of soliciting or retaining their employment or services) provide such issuance or sale is approved by the Companys board of directors,

(ii)

the issuance of securities pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities outstanding, provided the Companys issuance of such convertible or exercisable securities complied with the provisions of this Section 4(q),

(iii)

the issuance of securities pursuant to a bona fide acquisition of an asset, business, property or any interest therein (whether by way of license or otherwise), merger, amalgamation, reorganization, arrangement (statutory or otherwise) or similar corporate transactions, or

(iv)

any share recapitalization, capital reorganization or similar corporate transaction provided BVFs ownership and voting percentages (both on an outstanding and as-converted basis) following such transaction equals its ownership and voting percentages (both on an outstanding and as-converted basis) following such transaction.

The right of participation set forth in this Section 4(q) may not be assigned or transferred, except that such right is assignable by BVF to an affiliated limited partnership, limited partner, general partner, member, stockholder or other entity or person that is, within the meaning of the Act, controlling, controlled by or under common control with, BVF; provided that such entity or person is an accredited investor as that term is defined in: (i) Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D under the 1933 Act, and (ii) the Canadian Securities Laws as set forth in Exhibit H.

5.

TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

The Company shall issue instructions to its transfer agents, and any subsequent transfer agent, revocable only upon the receipt by the Company of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing that such instructions would result in a contravention of applicable securities laws and the Companys notice to BVF of the same, to issue certificates registered in the name of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s) or transferee(s), as applicable, for the Common Stock and Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company upon exercise of the Warrants (the Transfer Agent Instructions), a form of which is attached as Exhibit E hereto.  All such certificates shall bear the restrictive legends specified in Section 2(f) of this Agreement.  The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5 and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(f) hereof (in the case of the Warrant Shares) will be given by the Company to its transfer agent and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the Warrants. If (a) a Buyer provides the Company, if requested, with an opinion of counsel, of recognized standing, or other evidence of exemption in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that a public sale, assignment or transfer of Securities may be made without registration under the 1933 Act, (b) a Buyer provides the Company with reasonable assurances that the Securities can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or (c) a Buyer provides the Companys transfer agent with a declaration substantially in the form set out in Exhibit D to the effect that the sale of the Common Stock and/or Warrant Shares, as applicable, is being made in compliance with Rule 904, then in any such event described in subclauses (a), (b) or (c), the Company shall permit the transfer, and promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer and without any restrictive legend, other than any legend, if any, then required under Canadian Securities Laws or by the TSX.

ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES UPON SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK.  IF THE COMPANY AT ANY TIME AFTER THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT SUBDIVIDES (BY ANY STOCK SPLIT, STOCK DIVIDEND, RECAPITALIZATION OR OTHERWISE) ONE OR MORE CLASSES OF ITS OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK INTO A GREATER NUMBER OF SHARES, THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE IN EFFECT IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO SUCH SUBDIVISION WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY REDUCED AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY INCREASED.

the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Companys Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and (ii) either (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i), or (B) in the event that the Distribution is of common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the holder of this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have been payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had the holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause (i).

the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Companys Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and (ii) either (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i), or (B) in the event that the Distribution is of common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the holder of this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have been payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had the holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause

ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES UPON SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK.  IF THE COMPANY AT ANY TIME AFTER THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT SUBDIVIDES (BY ANY STOCK SPLIT, STOCK DIVIDEND, RECAPITALIZATION OR OTHERWISE) ONE OR MORE CLASSES OF ITS OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK INTO A GREATER NUMBER OF SHARES, THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE IN EFFECT IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO SUCH SUBDIVISION WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY REDUCED AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY INCREASED.  IF THE COMPANY AT ANY TIME AFTER THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT COMBINES (BY COMBINATION, REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OR OTHERWISE) ONE OR MORE CLASSES OF ITS OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK INTO A SMALLER NUMBER OF SHARES, THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE IN EFFECT IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO SUCH COMBINATION WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY INCREASED AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY DECREASED.  ANY ADJUSTMENT UNDER THIS SECTION 8(A) SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE AT THE DATE AND TIME THE SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION BECOMES EFFECTIVE.

DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.  IF THE COMPANY SHALL DECLARE OR MAKE ANY DIVIDEND OR OTHER DISTRIBUTION OF ITS ASSETS (OR RIGHTS TO ACQUIRE ITS ASSETS) TO HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK, BY WAY OF RETURN OF CAPITAL OR OTHERWISE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DISTRIBUTION OF CASH, STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES, PROPERTY OR OPTIONS BY WAY OF A DIVIDEND, SPIN OFF, RECLASSIFICATION, CORPORATE REARRANGEMENT OR OTHER SIMILAR TRANSACTION) (A DISTRIBUTION), AT ANY TIME AFTER THE ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT, THEN, IN EACH SUCH CASE:

the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Companys Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the

-
10 -

---

denominator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and (ii) either (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i), or (B) in the event that the Distribution is of common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the holder of this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have been payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had the holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause (i).

CERTAIN EVENTS.  IF ANY EVENT OCCURS OF THE TYPE CONTEMPLATED BY THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8 (AS DETERMINED IN GOOD FAITH BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY) BUT NOT EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR BY SUCH PROVISIONS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE GRANTING OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS, PHANTOM STOCK RIGHTS OR OTHER RIGHTS WITH EQUITY FEATURES), THEN THE COMPANYS BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL MAKE AN APPROPRIATE ADJUSTMENT IN THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT SO AS TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF THE HOLDERS OF THE  WARRANTS; PROVIDED THAT NO SUCH ADJUSTMENT WILL INCREASE THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE OR DECREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE AS OTHERWISE DETERMINED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 8.

NOTICES.

Immediately upon any adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price, the Company will give written notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment.

the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Companys Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and (ii) either (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to a number of shares

NOTICES.

the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Companys Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and (ii) either (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to a number of shares

-

equal to the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i), or (B) in the event that the Distribution is of common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the holder of this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have been payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had the holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause (i).

CERTAIN EVENTS.  IF ANY EVENT OCCURS OF THE TYPE CONTEMPLATED BY THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8 (AS DETERMINED IN GOOD FAITH BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY) BUT NOT EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR BY SUCH PROVISIONS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE GRANTING OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS, PHANTOM STOCK RIGHTS OR OTHER RIGHTS WITH EQUITY FEATURES), THEN THE COMPANYS BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL MAKE AN APPROPRIATE ADJUSTMENT IN THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT SO AS TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF THE HOLDERS OF THE  WARRANTS; PROVIDED THAT NO SUCH ADJUSTMENT WILL INCREASE THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE OR DECREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE AS OTHERWISE DETERMINED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 8.

NOTICES.

the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i), or (B) in the event that the Distribution is of common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the holder of this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have been payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had the holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause (i).

ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES UPON SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK.  IF THE COMPANY AT ANY TIME AFTER THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT SUBDIVIDES (BY ANY STOCK SPLIT, STOCK DIVIDEND, RECAPITALIZATION OR OTHERWISE) ONE OR MORE CLASSES OF ITS OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK INTO A GREATER NUMBER OF SHARES, THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE IN EFFECT IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO SUCH SUBDIVISION WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY REDUCED AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY INCREASED.  IF THE COMPANY AT ANY TIME AFTER THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT COMBINES (BY COMBINATION, REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OR OTHERWISE) ONE OR MORE CLASSES OF ITS OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK INTO A SMALLER NUMBER OF SHARES, THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE IN EFFECT IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO SUCH COMBINATION WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY INCREASED AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT WILL BE PROPORTIONATELY DECREASED.  ANY ADJUSTMENT UNDER THIS SECTION 8(A) SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE AT THE DATE AND TIME THE SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION BECOMES EFFECTIVE.

DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.  IF THE COMPANY SHALL DECLARE OR MAKE ANY DIVIDEND OR OTHER DISTRIBUTION OF ITS ASSETS (OR RIGHTS TO ACQUIRE ITS ASSETS) TO HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK, BY WAY OF RETURN OF CAPITAL OR OTHERWISE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DISTRIBUTION OF CASH, STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES, PROPERTY OR OPTIONS BY WAY OF A DIVIDEND, SPIN OFF, RECLASSIFICATION, CORPORATE REARRANGEMENT OR OTHER SIMILAR TRANSACTION) (A DISTRIBUTION), AT ANY TIME AFTER THE ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT, THEN, IN EACH SUCH CASE:

the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Companys Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and (ii) either (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set

-
10 -

forth in the immediately preceding clause (i), or (B) in the event that the Distribution is of common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the holder of this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have been payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had the holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause (i).

CERTAIN EVENTS.  IF ANY EVENT OCCURS OF THE TYPE CONTEMPLATED BY THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8 (AS DETERMINED IN GOOD FAITH BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY) BUT NOT EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR BY SUCH PROVISIONS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE GRANTING OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS, PHANTOM STOCK RIGHTS OR OTHER RIGHTS WITH EQUITY FEATURES), THEN THE COMPANYS BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL MAKE AN APPROPRIATE ADJUSTMENT IN THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT SO AS TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF THE HOLDERS OF THE  WARRANTS; PROVIDED THAT NO SUCH ADJUSTMENT WILL INCREASE THE WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE OR DECREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OBTAINABLE AS OTHERWISE DETERMINED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 8.

NOTICES.

Immediately upon any adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price, the Company will give written notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment.

The Company will give written notice to the holder of this Warrant at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change (as defined below), dissolution or liquidation, provided that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to such holder.

The undersigned (A) acknowledges and certifies that the sale of securities of the Company to which this declaration relates, is being made in reliance on Rule 904 of Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), and (B) certifies that (1) the undersigned is not an affiliate of the Company (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act); (2) the offer of such securities was not made to a person in the United States and either (a) at the time the buy order was originated, the buyer was outside the United States, or the seller and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believe that the buyer was outside the United States, or (b) the transaction was executed on or through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange, and neither the seller nor any person acting on their behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the United States; (3) neither the seller nor any affiliate of the seller nor any person acting on any of their behalf has engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts in the United States in connection with the offer and sale of such securities; (4) the sale is bona fide and not for the purpose of washing off the resale restrictions imposed because the securities are restricted securities (as that term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the 1933 Act); (5) the seller does not intend to replace such securities with fungible unrestricted securities and (6) the contemplated sale is not a transaction, or part of a series of transactions, which, although in technical compliance with Regulation S, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the 1933 Act.
