	2.1	 	The holders of Class A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, and the Corporation
shall pay, preferential cumulative dividends, as and when declared by the Board of Directors,
out of the assets of the Corporation properly applicable to the payment of dividends, at a
rate per annum on the issue price of the Class A Preferred Shares determined for each Calendar
Quarter as follows:






	 	 	 	 	 
	Market Price, in Canadian	 	Annual Dividend Rate Applicable	 
	currency, in the Calendar Quarter	 	to that Calendar Quarter	 
	 
	 	 	 	 
	Less than or equal to $128.89
	 	 	5	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	$128.90 to $146.81
	 	 	4	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	$146.82 to $164.73
	 	 	3	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	$164.74 to $182.65
	 	 	2	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	greater than $182.65
	 	 	1	%







	 	 	Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative from the Dividend Commencement Date. Such
dividends shall be payable on the Dividend Payment Dates to shareholders of record on the
immediately preceding Calendar Quarter end date. The rate of any dividend declared and
paid for a portion of a Calendar Quarter shall be prorated accordingly.

	 
	2.2	 	If on any Dividend Payment Date the dividend payable on such date is not declared and paid in
full on all of the Class A Preferred Shares then issued and outstanding, such dividend or the
unpaid part thereof shall be paid on a subsequent date or dates determined by the Board of
Directors on which the Corporation shall have sufficient monies properly applicable to the
payment of the same. When any such dividend is not paid in full, the Class A Preferred
Shares shall participate ratably with the preferred shares of all other shares, if any, which
rank on a parity with the Class A Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of dividends,
in respect of such dividends including accumulations, if any, in accordance with the sums
which would be payable on the Class A Preferred Shares and such other shares if all such
dividends were declared and paid in full in accordance with their terms. The holders of
Class A Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to any dividends other than or in excess of
the dividends hereinbefore provided for.





 


- 3 -









 











	2.3	 	The Board of Directors is entitled at its discretion to determine with respect to any
dividend on Class A Preferred Shares that all holders of Class A Preferred Shares receive such
dividend in the form of a dividend-in-kind payable in Common Shares. In the event the
Corporation elects to pay a dividend by delivering Common Shares to the holders of Class A
Preferred Shares the price of the Common Shares shall be calculated to be 95% of the volume
weighted average price in U.S. dollars at which board lots of the Common Shares have been
traded on NASDAQ during the 20 consecutive trading days preceding the end of the Calendar
Quarter for which such dividend-in-kind is to be paid converted into Canadian dollars using
the Bank of Canada’s noon rate of exchange on the day of determination. In the event the
Common Shares are not listed on NASDAQ but are listed on another stock exchange or stock
exchanges in Canada or the United States, any reference to NASDAQ shall be deemed to be
references to such other stock exchange, or, if more than one, to such one on which the
greatest volume of trading of Common Shares occurred during such 20 consecutive trading days.
In the event Common Shares are not so traded on any stock exchange in Canada or the
United States, the price thereof shall be determined by the Board of
Directors, which determination shall be conclusive.







	2.4	 	Subject to Section 2.3, dividends (less any tax required to be withheld by the Corporation)
on the Class A Preferred Shares shall be paid by electronic funds transfer or by cheque
payable in lawful money of Canada, at any branch in Canada of the Corporation’s bankers. The
mailing of such cheque from the Corporation’s head office on or before the date on which such
dividend is to be paid to a holder of Class A Preferred Shares shall be deemed to be payment
of the dividends represented thereby and payable on such date unless the cheque is not paid
upon presentation.







	2.5	 	Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1 but subject to Section 2.8, at all times prior
to January 1, 2011 the Corporation shall declare and pay a dividend on the Class A Preferred
Shares in respect of a Calendar Quarter ending in a particular fiscal year of the Corporation
only to the extent that the Corporation would not be liable to pay tax under Part VI. I of the
Tax Act in respect of such dividend other than tax that would be fully recovered by means of
the deduction under paragraph 110(1)(k) of the Tax Act for that fiscal year. On each Dividend
Payment Date, the Corporation shall estimate the amount of its taxable income for the fiscal
year which includes such Dividend Payment Date and shall compute the amount of the dividend
which it is obliged to declare and pay accordingly. Once the actual amount of taxable
income for such fiscal year is established by means of the filing of the
relevant tax return, or if a previous estimate thereof has been revised by a subsequent
estimate thereof made by the Corporation, such adjustment as is appropriate to achieve the
result expressed herein shall be made to the amount of the dividend required to be declared
and paid on the next Dividend Payment Date, whether that date falls within the same or a
subsequent fiscal year. The Corporation shall deliver to the holders of the Class A
Preferred Shares, on such Dividend Payment Date, a calculation in writing showing the
amount of the Corporation’s taxable income for its fiscal year that includes that Dividend
Payment Date as so estimated or as finally determined by the Corporation, as well as the
dividend that such holders are entitled to receive on that Dividend Payment Date having
regard to such estimated or actual taxable income, as the case may be.





 


- 4 -









 











	 	 	If the Corporation does not declare and pay dividends on the Class A Preferred Shares as a
consequence of the provisions of this Section 2.5, dividends shall continue to accrue at
the rate or rates provided in these share conditions and the amount of any such unpaid
dividend or the unpaid part thereof, shall be adjusted upward by a multiplicative factor
equal to 1.0245 raised to an exponent equal to the number of Calendar Quarters, including
decimal fractions thereof based on 91 days per Calendar Quarter, between the 10th day
following the Calendar Quarter in which the unpaid dividend originally accrued and the date
actually paid assuming, for these calculations, that the Class A Preferred Shares were
issued on July 31, 2000 and that the Corporation paid $125,000 in dividends per Calendar
Quarter from the notional issue date until the Calendar Quarter ended December 31, 2003. By
way of illustration, for greater certainty, if the Board of Directors determines to declare
and pay on November 25, 2005, a dividend which originally accrued in respect of the
Calendar Quarter ending September 30, 2000, then the dividend which originally accrued
would be multiplied by 1.643 (i.e. 1.0245 to the exponent 20.51) to determine the adjusted
amount of the dividend to be declared. Any dividends declared and paid on the Class A
Preferred Shares, shall always be in respect of the earliest Calendar Quarter for which the
original accrued dividend, or any part thereof, remains unpaid. The Corporation shall
maintain in its books of account at the end of each Calendar Quarter a record of the
adjusted amount of each accrued and unpaid dividend, calculated on the basis of the amount
that would be payable as of the 10th business day following the Calendar Quarter, and the
aggregate adjusted amount of all such accrued and unpaid dividends.

	 
	2.6	 	The Corporation shall take into account the amount of any dividend allowance available to it
under subsection 191.1(2) of the Tax Act in determining the amount of the dividend which it is
required to declare and pay under Section 2.5 and, in the event the Corporation is or becomes
“associated” for purposes of the Tax Act with any other corporation prior to
January 1, 2011, no portion of the said dividend allowance shall be allocated to such
associated corporation under Subsection 191.1(3) of the Tax Act.





 


- 5 -









 











	2.7	 	The Corporation shall have full flexibility in planning its tax affairs so as to reduce its
taxable income for a particular fiscal year as it sees fit, including the claiming of all
discretionary deductions, notwithstanding that this will have the effect of reducing the
amount of the dividends to actually be declared and paid to the holders of the Class A
Preferred Shares in that fiscal year, by virtue of the operation of Section 2.5.







	2.8	 	Notwithstanding Section 2.5, the Corporation may, in its sole discretion, on any Dividend
Payment Date, declare and pay dividends, up to the amount of the then accrued and unpaid
dividends, without regard to the limitation imposed under Section 2.5.







	2.9	 	On December 31, 2010 the amount of all accrued and unpaid dividends shall be paid to the
holders of Class A Preferred Shares.







	3	 	LIQUIDATION







	3.1	 	In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether
voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of assets of the Corporation among its
shareholders for the purposes of winding up its affairs, the holders of Class A Preferred
Shares, shall be entitled to receive the amount paid up on such shares together with an amount
equal to all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, which amounts shall be calculated as if
such dividend were accruing for the period from the expiration of the last Calendar Quarter
for which the dividends thereon have been paid in full up to the date of such event, the whole
before any amount shall be paid or any property or assets of the Corporation shall be
distributed to the holders of the common shares of the Corporation or to the holders of any
other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class A Preferred Shares in any respect.
If such amounts are not paid in full, the Class A Preferred Shares shall participate ratably
with all preferred shares and all other shares, if any, which rank on a parity with the
preferred shares with respect to the return of capital or any other distribution of the assets
of the Corporation, in respect of any return of capital in accordance with the sums which
would be payable on such preferred shares and such other shares on such return capital, if all
sums so payable were paid in full in accordance with their terms. After payment to the holders
of the Class A Preferred Shares of the amounts so payable to them they shall not be entitled
to share in any other distribution of the property or assets of the Corporation.

	4	 	REDEMPTION







	4.1	 	The Class A Preferred Shares are not redeemable by the Corporation on or prior to July 31,
2004.







	4.2	 	On or after July 31, 2004, and subject to the Business Corporations Act, (Alberta), the
Corporation may redeem the whole or any part of the Class A Preferred Shares if on the day
that the requisite notice of redemption is first given, the volume weighted average price in
U.S. Dollars at which the Common Shares have traded on NASDAQ during the 20 consecutive
trading days ending on a date not earlier than the fifth preceding date on which the notice of
redemption is given converted into Canadian dollars using the Bank of Canada’s noon rate of
exchange on such day was not less than a 20% premium to the Current Exchange Price on payment
of $25.00 per Preferred Share, Class A to be redeemed, together with an amount equal to all
accrued and unpaid dividends to the date fixed for redemption, the whole
constituting the redemption price. In the event the Common Shares are not listed on NASDAQ
but are listed on another stock exchange or stock exchanges in Canada or the United States,
any reference to NASDAQ shall be deemed to be references to such other stock exchange, or, if
more than one, to such one on which the greatest volume of trading of Common Shares occurred
during such 20 consecutive trading days. In the event Common Shares are not so traded on any
stock exchange in Canada or the United States, the price thereof shall be determined by the
Board of Directors, which determination shall be conclusive.







	4.3	 	On or after July 31, 2010, the Class A Preferred Shares are redeemable by the Corporation at
any time on payment of $25.00 per Preferred Share, Class A to be redeemed together with an
amount equal to all accrued and unpaid dividends to the date fixed for redemption, the whole
constituting the redemption price.







	4.4	 	In case a part only of the then outstanding Class A Preferred Shares is at any time to be
redeemed, the shares so to be redeemed shall be selected by lot in such manner as the Board of
Directors in its discretion shall decide or, if the Board of Directors so determines, may be
redeemed pro rata, disregarding fractions, and the Board of Directors may make such
adjustments as may be necessary to avoid the redemption of fractional parts of shares.





 


- 7 -









 











	4.5	 	On any redemption of Class A Preferred Shares, the Corporation shall give in the manner
provided in Section 11 at least 30 days prior notice to each person who, at the date of giving
such notice, is the holder of Class A Preferred Shares to be redeemed, of the intention of the
Corporation to redeem such shares. Such notice shall set out the redemption price and the
date on which the redemption is to take place and, unless all the Class A Preferred Shares
held by the holder to whom it is addressed are to be redeemed, shall also set
out the number of such shares so held which are to be redeemed. On and after the date so
specified for redemption the Corporation shall pay, or cause to be paid to the holders of
such Class A Preferred Shares to be redeemed, the redemption price on presentation and
surrender at the head office of the Corporation or at any other place or places within
Canada designated by such notice, of the certificate or certificates for such Class A
Preferred Shares so called for redemption. Such payment shall be made by cheque payable at
par at any branch in Canada of the Corporation’s bankers. If a part only of the Class A
Preferred Shares represented by any certificate shall be redeemed, a new certificate for
the balance shall be issued at the expense of the Corporation. From and after the date
specified in any such notice, the Class A Preferred Shares called for redemption shall
cease to be entitled to dividends and the holders thereof shall not be entitled to exercise
any of the rights of shareholders in respect thereof unless payment of the redemption price
shall not be duly made by the Corporation. On or after the date specified for redemption of
Class A Preferred Shares by the Corporation, the Corporation shall have the right to
deposit the redemption price of any or all Class A Preferred Shares called for redemption
with any chartered bank or banks or with any trust company or trust companies in Canada
named for such purpose in the notice of redemption to the credit of a special account or
accounts in trust for the respective holders of such shares, to be paid to them
respectively upon surrender to such bank or banks or trust company or trust companies of
the certificate or certificates representing the same. Upon such deposit or deposits being
made, such shares shall be deemed to be redeemed and the rights of the holders of such
 shares shall be limited to receiving the proportion of the amounts so deposited applicable
to their respective shares without interest. Any interest allowed on such deposit or
deposits shall belong to the Corporation.







	4.6	 	Class A Preferred Shares which are redeemed or deemed to be redeemed in accordance with this
Section 4 shall be and be deemed to be cancelled and shall not be reissued.







	5	 	EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE







	5.1	 	A holder of Class A Preferred Shares has the right, at the holder’s option, to exchange,
subject to the terms and provisions hereof, such Class A Preferred Shares into fully paid and
non-assessable Common Shares at the then Current Exchange Basis; except that, in the case of
Class A Preferred Shares which shall have been called for redemption pursuant to Section 4,
such right shall terminate with respect thereto at the close of business on the third business
day prior to the date fixed for such redemption. If payment of the redemption price of Class A
Preferred Shares which have been called for redemption is not paid on due surrender of the
certificate for such Class A Preferred Shares the right of exchange shall revive and continue
from the
time of the failure to pay as if such Class A Preferred Shares had not been called for
redemption.





 


- 8 -









 











	5.2	 	In the event the Class A Preferred Shares are to be exchanged by a holder at the Final
Exchange Price the Corporation may satisfy its exchange obligations pursuant to this Section 5
by the payment of cash to the holder in the amount calculated by determining the number of
Common Shares that would be deliverable in accordance with the Current Exchange Basis and
multiplying this number by the Current Market Price. Such payment shall be made by cheque
payable at par at any branch in Canada of the Corporation’s bankers.







	5.3	 	The exchange of Class A Preferred Shares may be effected by the surrender of the certificate
or certificates representing the same at any time during usual business hours at the option
of the holder at the head office of the Corporation accompanied by: (1) payment or evidence
of payment of the tax (if any) payable as provided in Section 5.10; and (2) a written
instrument of surrender in form satisfactory to the Corporation duly executed by the
registered holder, or the holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, in which instrument
such holder may also elect to exchange part only of:







	 	(a)	 	the Class A Preferred Shares represented by such certificate or
certificates not theretofore called for redemption, in which event such holder shall
be entitled to receive, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate
representing the Class A Preferred Shares represented by such certificate or
certificates which have not yet been exchanged;

	 
	 	(b)	 	the Class A Preferred Shares represented by such certificate or
certificates, theretofore called for redemption, in which event on the date specified
for the redemption of such Class A Preferred Shares such holder, shall be entitled to
payment of the redemption price of the Class A Preferred Shares represented by such
certificate or certificates which have been called for redemption and which have not
been exchanged, and to receive, at the expense of the Corporation, a certificate
representing Class A Preferred Shares represented by such certificate or certificates
which have been neither exchanged nor redeemed. As promptly as practicable after the
surrender of any Class A Preferred Shares for exchange, the Corporation shall deliver
to or upon the written order of the holder of the Class A Preferred Shares so
surrendered, a certificate or certificates issued in the name of, or in such name or
names as may be directed by, such holder representing the number of Common Shares to
which such holder is entitled together with a payment by cheque in respect of any
fraction of a Common Share that would be issuable on such exchange as provided in
Section 5.9. Such exchange shall be deemed to have been made at the close of
business on the date such Class A Preferred Shares shall
have been surrendered for exchange, so that the rights of the holder of such Class
A Preferred Shares as the holder thereof shall cease at such time and the person or
persons entitled to receive Common Shares upon such exchange shall be treated for
all purposes as having become the holder or holders of record of such Common Shares
at such time and such exchange shall be on the Current Exchange Basis as at such
time; provided that no such surrender on any date when FuelCell’s registers of
transfers of Common Shares shall be properly closed shall be effective to
constitute the person or persons entitled to receive Common Shares upon such
exchange as the holder or holders of record of such Common Shares on such date, but
such surrender shall be effective to constitute the person or persons entitled to
receive such Common Shares as the holder or holders of record thereof for all
purposes at, and such exchange shall be on the Current Exchange Basis as at, the
close of business on the next succeeding day on which such registers of transfers
are open. In no event shall the Corporation’s or FuelCell’s registers of transfers
of Common Shares be closed at any time during normal business hours during the 30
days immediately preceding any exchange or redemption date. The date of surrender
of any Class A Preferred Shares for exchange shall be deemed to be the date when
the certificate representing such Class A Preferred Shares is received by the
Corporation.





 


- 9 -









 











	5.4	 	The registered holder of any Preferred Share, Class A on the record date for any dividend
declared payable on such share shall be entitled to such dividend notwithstanding that such
share is exchanged after such record date and before the payment date of such dividend. The
registered holder of any Common Share resulting from any exchange shall be entitled to rank
equally with the registered holders of all other Common Shares in respect of all dividends
declared payable to holders of Common Shares of record on any date on or after the date of
exchange. Subject as aforesaid and subject to the provisions hereof, upon the exchange of any
Class A Preferred Shares the Corporation shall make no payment or adjustment on account of
any dividends on the Class A Preferred Shares so exchanged or on account of the dividends on
the Common Shares deliverable upon such exchange.







	5.5	 	The Current Exchange Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:







	 	(a)	 	In case FuelCell shall:







	 	(i)	 	subdivide its outstanding Common Shares into a
greater number of shares;

	 
	 	(ii)	 	combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number
of shares; or

	 
	 	(iii)	 	issue Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) to the
holders of any of its outstanding Common Shares by way of a stock dividend (other
than an issue to shareholders pursuant to their exercise of options to receive
dividends in the form of Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares),
in lieu of cash dividends declared payable by the Corporation on such shares);





 


- 10 -









 











the Current Exchange Price in effect on the effective date of such subdivision or combination or
consolidation or on the record date of such issuance of Common Shares (or securities convertible
into Common Shares) by way of a stock dividend, as the case may be, shall, in the case of events
referred to in Sections 5.5(a)(i) and 5.5(a)(iii) be decreased in proportion to the increase in
the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision or such dividend
(including, in the case where securities convertible into Common Shares are issued, the number of
Common Shares that would be outstanding had such securities been converted into Common Shares on
such record date), or, in the case of Section 5.5(a)(ii) shall be increased in proportion to the
decrease in the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from the combination or
consolidation. Such adjustment will be made successively whenever any event referred to in this
Section 5.5(a) shall occur. Any such issue of Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common
Shares) by way of stock dividend shall be deemed to have been made on the record date of the stock
dividend for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under this Section
5.5(a).




	 	(b)	 	In case FuelCell shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to
all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them for a
period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase
Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a
conversion price per share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price on such record date, the
Current Exchange Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall
equal a price determined by multiplying the Current Exchange Price in effect on such record
date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares
outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at
by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for
subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion price of the convertible securities so
offered) by the Current Market Price of a Common Share, and of which the
denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date
plus the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or
into which the convertible Securities so offered are convertible). Any Common Shares owned
by or held for the account of FuelCell shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the
purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such
a record date is fixed. If all such rights, options or warrants are not so issued or if
all such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof,
the Current Exchange Price shall be readjusted to the Current Exchange Price which would
then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed, and the Current Exchange Price
shall be further adjusted based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities
convertible into Common Shares) actually delivered upon the exercise of such rights,
options or warrants, as the case may be.





 


- 11 -









 











	 	(c)	 	In case FuelCell shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution (including a
distribution by way of a stock dividend) to all or substantially all the holders of its
outstanding Common Shares of:







	 	(i)	 	shares of any class other than Common Shares (excluding shares convertible
into Common Shares referred to in Section 5.5.(a)); or

	 
	 	(ii)	 	rights, options or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 5.5(b));
or

	 
	 	(iii)	 	evidence of its indebtedness (excluding indebtedness convertible into
Common Shares referred to in Section 5.5(a)); or

	 
	 	(iv)	 	assets (excluding Common Shares issued by way of a stock dividend and cash
dividends paid in the ordinary course);







then in such case the Current Exchange Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date
so that it shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Current Exchange Price in effect on
such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares
outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price per Common Share on such
record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose
determination shall be conclusive) of such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of
indebtedness or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of
Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Market Price per Common Share; any
Common Shares owned by or held for the account of FuelCell shall be deemed not to be outstanding
for the purpose of any such computation; such adjustment shall be made successively whenever
such a record date is fixed, to the extent that such distribution is not so made, the
Current Exchange Price shall be readjusted to the Current Exchange Price which would then
be in effect based upon such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of
indebtedness or assets actually distributed.


 


- 12 -









 






	5.6	 	No adjustments of the Current Exchange Price shall be made pursuant to subsection 5.5(b) or
5.5(c) if the holders of the Class A Preferred Shares were permitted to participate in the
issue of such rights, options or warrants or such distribution, as the case may be, as though
and to the same effect as if they had exchanged their Class A Preferred Shares into Common
Shares prior to the issue of such rights, options or warrants or such distribution as the case
