delegated to it by the Board, shall have the power and authority, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to select those Eligible Recipients who shall be Participants;

Awards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) to determine the Fair Market Value in accordance with the terms of the Plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) to determine the duration and purpose of leaves of absence which may be granted to a Participant without constituting termination
of the Participant's employment or service for purposes of Awards granted under the Plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) to adopt, alter and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it shall from time to time deem
advisable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to sub-plans or addendums established for the purpose of satisfying

be set forth in an appendix or appendices to the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) to construe and interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any Award issued under the Plan (and any Award Agreement relating
thereto), and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan and to exercise all powers and authorities either specifically granted
under the Plan or necessary and advisable in the administration of the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Administrator's determinations under the Plan (including without limitation, the selection of Participants, the form, amount
and timing of Awards, the terms and provisions of Awards and the applicable Award Agreements, the modification or amendment of any award
and the applicable Award Agreement, and the construction and interpretation of the terms and provisions of the Plan and any Award) need
not be uniform and may be made by the Administrator selectively among Eligible Recipients or Participants whether or not such persons

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) All decisions made by the Administrator pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding on all Persons,
including the Company and the Participants. No member of the Board or the Committee, nor any officer or employee of the Company or any

officer or employee of the Company and of any Subsidiary thereof acting on their behalf shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law,
be fully indemnified and protected by the Company in respect of any such action, omission, determination or interpretation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, delegate its authority, in whole or in part, under the Plan (including, but not limited

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, retain a service provider, at a reasonable expense, to provide administrative agent,

**4. Shares Reserved for Issuance; Certain Limitations; Director Compensation Limitation.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5 herein, the maximum aggregate number of Shares reserved and available for issuance
under the Plan shall be 22,644,625.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Shares issued under the Plan may, in whole or in part, be authorized but unissued Shares or Shares that shall have been or may be
reacquired by the Company in the open market, in private transactions or otherwise. If any Shares subject to an Award are forfeited, cancelled,
exchanged or surrendered or if an Award otherwise terminates or expires without a distribution of Shares to the Participant, the Shares
with respect to such Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, termination or expiration,
again be available for Awards under the Plan. Shares that are exchanged by a Participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial
payment in connection with the exercise of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the payment of any purchase price with respect to
any other Award under the Plan, as well as any Shares exchanged by a Participant or withheld by the Company or any Subsidiary to satisfy
the tax withholding obligations related to any Award under the Plan, shall not be available for subsequent Awards under the Plan. In addition,
(i) to the extent an Award is denominated in Shares, but paid or settled in cash, the number of Shares with respect to which such
payment or settlement is made shall again be available for grants of Awards pursuant to the Plan and (ii) Shares underlying Awards
that can only be settled in cash shall not be counted against the aggregate number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No Participant who is a non-employee director of the Company shall be granted Awards during any calendar year that, when aggregated
with such non-employee director's cash fees with respect to such calendar year, exceed $750,000 in total value (calculating the
value of any such Awards based on the grant date fair value of such Awards for the Company's financial reporting purposes). The
Administrator may make exceptions to increase such limit to $1,000,000 for an individual non-employee director in extraordinary circumstances,
such as where a non-employee director serves as the non-executive chairman of the Board or lead independent director, or as a member of
a special litigation or transactions committee of the Board, as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion, provided that
the non-employee director receiving such additional compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation involving
such non-employee director.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For so long as the Shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, the Plan (and any other proposed or established security based
compensation arrangements of the Company) will not result in (i) a number of Shares issuable to Eligible Recipients who are Insiders,
at any time, exceeding 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock at such time, and (ii) a number of Shares issued to Eligible
Recipients who are Insiders, within any one-year period, exceeding 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock at such time.

**5. Equitable Adjustments.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event of any Change in Capitalization or a Change in Control, an equitable substitution or proportionate adjustment shall be
made, in each case, in the manner determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, in (i) the aggregate number of Shares
reserved for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof, (ii) the kind and number of securities subject to,
and the Exercise Price or Base Price of, any outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan, (iii) the
kind, number and purchase price of Shares, or the amount of cash or amount or type of other property, subject to outstanding Restricted
Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Stock Bonuses and Other Stock-Based Awards granted under the Plan or (iv) the performance criteria
and performance periods applicable to any Awards granted under the Plan; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from
the adjustment shall be eliminated. Such other equitable substitutions or adjustments shall be made as may be determined by the Administrator,
in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with a Change in Capitalization or a Change in Control, the Administrator
may provide, in its sole discretion, but subject in all events to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, for the cancellation
of any outstanding Award in exchange for payment in cash or other property having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Fair Market
Value of the Shares, cash or other property covered by such Award, reduced by the aggregate Exercise Price or Base Price thereof, if any;
provided, however, that (i) if the Exercise Price or Base Price of any outstanding Award is equal to or greater than the Fair Market
Value of the Shares, cash or other property covered by such Award, the Administrator may cancel such Award without the payment of any
consideration to the Participant; and (ii) in the case of any Options or other Awards granted to a Canadian Participant that are
subject to section 7 of the Tax Act, the consent of such Participant shall be required to settle such Awards in cash or any property other
than Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The determinations made by the Administrator pursuant to this Section 5 shall be final, binding and conclusive.

**6. Eligibility.**

The Participants under the Plan (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, Participants that are granted Replacement Hut Options under the Plan of Arrangement) shall be selected from time to time by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, from those individuals that qualify as Eligible Recipients.

**7. Options.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) General . Each Participant who is granted an Option shall enter into
an Award Agreement with the Company, containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion,
which Award Agreement shall set forth, among other things, the Exercise Price of the Option, the term of the Option and provisions regarding
exercisability of the Option, vesting provisions of the Option, and whether the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option or
a Nonqualified Option (and in the event the Award Agreement has no such designation, the Option shall be a Nonqualified Option). More
than one Option may be granted to the same Participant and be outstanding concurrently hereunder. Options granted under the Plan shall
be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent
with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 7, Replacement Hut Options shall have the terms specified in the Plan of Arrangement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Exercise Price . The Exercise Price of Shares purchasable under an
Option shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion at the time of grant, but in no event shall the exercise price
of an Option be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the related Shares on the date of grant. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Exercise Price of Share issuable under any Replacement Hut Option shall be the exercise price determined in accordance
with the Plan of Arrangement for such Replacement Hut Option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Option Term .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The maximum term of each Option shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Option shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years
after the date such Option is granted. Each Option's term is subject to earlier expiration pursuant to the applicable provisions
in the Plan and the Award Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Should the expiration date for an Option fall within a Black-Out Period or within nine (9) Business Days following the expiration
of a Black-Out Period, such expiration date shall be automatically extended without any further act or formality to that date which is
the 10th Business Day after the end of the Black-Out Period, such 10th Business Day to be considered the expiration date for such Option
for all purposes under the Plan. The 10-Business Day period referred to herein may not be extended by the Administrator. Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan to the contrary, (i) Incentive Stock Options shall not be extended as provided in this Section and (ii) Non-Qualified
Stock Options shall be extended as provided in this Section only if the exercise of the Non-Qualified Stock Options during the Black-Out
Period would violate an applicable federal, state, local or foreign law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Exercisability . Each Option shall be exercisable, subject to applicable
Black-Out Periods, at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions, including the attainment of performance criteria, as
shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement. The Administrator may also provide that any Option shall be
exercisable only in installments, and the Administrator may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time, in whole or in part,
based on such factors as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Method of Exercise . Options may be exercised in whole or in part by
giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of whole Shares to be purchased, accompanied by payment in full
of the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares so purchased in cash or its equivalent, as determined by the Administrator. As determined
by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, with respect to any Option or category of Options, payment in whole or in part may also
be made (i) by means of consideration received under any cashless exercise procedure approved by the Administrator (including the
withholding of Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise or a broker-assisted cashless exercise program), (ii) in the form of unrestricted
Shares already owned by the Participant which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price
of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (iii) any other form of consideration approved by the Administrator and
permitted by applicable law or (iv) any combination of the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Incentive Stock Options . The terms and conditions of Incentive Stock
Options granted hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 422 of the Code and the terms, conditions, limitations and
administrative procedures established by the Administrator from time to time in accordance with the Plan. At the discretion of the Administrator, Incentive
Stock Options may be granted only to an employee of the Company, its " parent
corporation " (as such term is defined in Section 424(e) of the Code) or " subsidiary
corporation " (as such term is defined in Section 424(f) of the Code). Up to 22,644,625 Shares may be granted as
Incentive Stock Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Incentive Stock Option Grants to 10% Stockholders</u>. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Plan, if an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Participant who owns shares representing more than
ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of shares of the Company, its "parent corporation " (as such term
is defined in Section 424(e) of the Code) or " subsidiary corporation "
(as such term is defined in Section 424(f) of the Code), the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall not exceed five (5) years
from the time of grant of such Incentive Stock Option and the Exercise Price shall be at least one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the
Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>$100,000 Per Year Limitation For Incentive Stock Options</u>. To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined on the
date of grant) of the Shares for which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar
year (under all plans of the Company and its Affiliates) exceeds $100,000, such excess Incentive Stock Options shall constitute Nonqualified
Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Disqualifying Dispositions</u>. Each Participant awarded an Incentive
Stock Option under the Plan shall notify the Company in writing immediately after the date the Participant makes a "disqualifying
disposition " of any Share acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Incentive Stock Option. A " disqualifying
disposition " is any disposition (including any sale) of such Shares before the later of (i) two years after the date
of grant of the Incentive Stock Option and (ii) one year after the date the Participant acquired the Shares by exercising the Incentive
Stock Option. The Company may, if determined by the Administrator and in accordance with procedures established by it, retain possession
of any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option as agent for the applicable Participant until the end of
the period described in the preceding sentence, subject to complying with any instructions from such Participant as to the sale of such
Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No Liability . Neither the Company nor the Administrator will be liable
to a Participant, or to any other party, if an Incentive Stock Option fails or ceases to qualify as an " incentive
stock option " under Section 422 of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Rights as Stockholder . Except as provided in the applicable Award
Agreement or pursuant to an adjustment pursuant to Section 5, a Participant shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents
or distributions or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to an Option until Shares have been issued with
respect to the exercise of the Option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Termination of Employment or Service . In the event of the termination
of employment or service by the Company (for any reason other than for Cause) with the Company and all Affiliates thereof of a Participant
who has been granted one or more Options, unless otherwise set forth in the Award Agreement granting such Options, the Options held by
the Participant shall continue to vest and may be exercised in accordance with its terms at any time, subject to compliance with applicable
Black-Out Periods, during the period that terminates on the earlier of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the 30<sup>th</sup>day after the termination of Participant's Termination Date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement; provided that, if the termination of employment or service
with the Company and all Affiliates is by the Company for Cause, all outstanding Options (whether or not vested) shall immediately terminate
and cease to be exercisable.

For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the foregoing the expiry date of any Replacement Hut Option, including in connection with the termination of employment or service of the relevant Participant, shall be as specified in the Plan of Arrangement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Extension of Termination Date . An Award Agreement may also provide
that if the exercise of the Option following the Participant's Termination Date for any reason would be prohibited at any time because
the issuance of shares of Common Stock would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act or any other state, federal,
or provincial securities law or the rules of any stock exchange or interdealer quotation system, then the Option shall terminate
on the earlier of (a) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement; or (b) the expiration of
a period that is 30 days after the end of the period during which the exercise of the Option would be in violation of such registration
or other securities law requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Other Change in Employment or Service Status . An Option shall be affected,
both with regard to vesting schedule and termination, by leaves of absence, including unpaid and un-protected leaves of absence, changes
from full-time to part-time employment, partial Disability or other changes in the employment status or service status of a Participant,
in the discretion of the Administrator, subject to applicable law.

Standing Rights ") or in conjunction with all or part of any Option granted under the Plan (" Related
Rights "). Related Rights may be granted either at or after the time of the grant of such Option. The Administrator shall
determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be made, the number
of Shares to be awarded, the Base Price, and all other conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Related
Right may be granted for more Shares than are subject to the Option to which it relates. Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan
shall be subject to the following terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions,
not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable, as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Base Price . Each Stock Appreciation Right shall be granted with a
base price (above which the Participant is eligible for payment in Shares or cash, subject to the terms of the Plan and the Award Agreement
for such Stock Appreciation Right (such amount, the " Base Price "))
that is not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the related Shares on the date of grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Rights as Stockholder . Except as provided in the applicable Award
Agreement or pursuant to adjustment under Section 5, a Participant shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents or distributions
or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares, if any, subject to a Stock Appreciation Right until Shares have been
issued in respect of the Stock Appreciation Right.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Exercisability .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Stock Appreciation Rights that are Free Standing Rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions
as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Stock Appreciation Rights that are Related Rights shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent that the Options
to which they relate shall be exercisable in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 hereof and this Section 8.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Consideration Upon Exercise .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Upon the exercise of a Free Standing Right, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of
whole Shares equal in value to (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of exercise over
the Base Price per share specified in the Free Standing Right, multiplied by (ii) the number of Shares in respect of which the Free
Standing Right is being exercised (rounded down to the nearest whole Share).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) A Related Right may be exercised by a Participant by surrendering the applicable portion of the related Option. Upon such exercise
and surrender, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of Shares equal in value to (i) the
excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of exercise over the Exercise Price specified in the related
Option, multiplied by (ii) the number of Shares in respect of which the Related Right is being exercised. Options which have been
so surrendered, in whole or in part, shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the Related Rights have been so exercised.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in the applicable Award Agreement the Administrator may determine to settle the
exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right in cash (or in any combination of whole Shares and cash).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Termination of Employment or Service .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) In the event of the termination of employment or service by the Company (for any reason other than for Cause) with the Company and
all Affiliates thereof of a Participant who has been granted one or more Free Standing Rights, unless otherwise set forth in the Award
Agreement granting such Free Standing Rights, the Free Standing Rights held by the Participant may be exercised in accordance with its
terms at any time, subject to compliance with applicable Black-Out Periods, during the period that terminates on the earlier of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) 30th day after the termination of the Participant's Termination Date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the expiration of the term of the Free Standing Rights as set forth in the Award Agreement; provided that, if the termination of employment
or service with the Company and all Affiliates is by the Company for Cause, all outstanding Free Standing Rights (whether or not vested)
shall immediately terminate and cease to be exercisable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) In the event of the termination of employment or service with the Company and all Affiliates thereof of a Participant who has been
granted one or more Related Rights, such rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as
set forth in the related Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Term .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The term of each Free Standing Right shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Free Standing Right shall be exercisable more than
ten (10) years after the date such right is granted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The term of each Related Right shall be the term of the Option to which it relates, but no Related Right shall be exercisable more
than ten (10) years after the date such right is granted (or such shorter period as is applicable to the related Option).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Other Change in Employment or Service Status . Stock Appreciation Rights
shall be affected, both with regard to vesting schedule and termination, by leaves of absence, including unpaid and un-protected leaves
of absence, changes from full-time to part-time employment, partial Disability or other changes in the employment status or service status
of a Participant, in the discretion of the Administrator.

**9. Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Performance Stock Units.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) General . Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Performance
Stock Units may be issued under the Plan. The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at
which, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Performance Stock Units shall be made; the number of Shares to be awarded; the price,
if any, to be paid by the Participant for the acquisition of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units; the
period of time prior to which Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units become vested and free of restrictions on Transfer and/or the
performance goals applicable to Performance Share Units (the " Restricted
Period "); the applicable performance criteria for Performance Stock Units (if any); and all other conditions of the Restricted
Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Performance Stock Units. If the restrictions, performance criteria and/or conditions established by
the Administrator are not attained, a Participant shall forfeit the Participant's Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Performance
Stock Units, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of the grant, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding
the foregoing:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the date on which a particular Restricted Stock Unit awarded to a Canadian Participant may vest (including if such date is an indeterminate
date on which any performance criteria are satisfied) shall in all cases be required to be no later than December 15th of the calendar
year which is three (3) years after the calendar year in which the Restricted Stock Unit is granted, and Shares (either in certificated
or uncertificated form) or cash, as applicable, shall promptly be issued or paid to the Participant before the end of such calendar year;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Restricted Stock may not be issued to Canadian Participants unless specifically determined by the Administrator and consented to by
the Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Awards and Certificates .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9(b)(iii) hereof, (i) each Participant who is granted an Award of Restricted
Stock may, in the Company's sole discretion, be issued a stock certificate in respect of such Restricted Stock; and (ii) any
such certificate so issued shall be registered in the name of the Participant, and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms,
conditions, and restrictions applicable to any such Award. The Company may require that the stock certificates, if any, evidencing Restricted
Stock granted hereunder be held in the custody of the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that, as a condition
of any award of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have delivered a stock transfer form, endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares
covered by such award. Certificates for shares of unrestricted Common Stock may, in the Company's sole discretion, be delivered
to the Participant only after the Restricted Period has expired without forfeiture in respect of such Restricted Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) With respect to an Award of Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units to be settled in Shares, at the expiration of the Restricted
Period, stock certificates in respect of the Shares underlying such Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units will be delivered
to the Participant, or the Participant's legal representative, in a number equal to the number of Shares underlying the Award of
Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, any Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units to
be settled in Shares (at the expiration of the Restricted Period) may, in the Company's sole discretion, be issued in uncertificated
form.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Further, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, with respect to Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units,
at the expiration of the Restricted Period, Shares (either in certificated or uncertificated form) or cash, as applicable, shall promptly
be issued to the Participant, unless otherwise deferred in accordance with procedures established by the Company in accordance with Section 409A
of the Code, and such issuance or payment shall in any event be made no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the
year of vesting or within such other period as is required to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A
of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Restrictions and Conditions . The Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock
Units or Performance Stock Units granted pursuant to this Section 9 shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions
and any additional restrictions or conditions as determined by the Administrator at the time of grant or, subject to Section 409A
of the Code where applicable, thereafter:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Award Agreement may provide for the lapse of restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions in whole
or in part based on such factors and such circumstances as set forth in the Award Agreement, including, but not limited to, the attainment
of certain performance related goals in the case of Performance Stock Units, the Participant's termination of employment or service
with the Company or any Affiliate thereof, or the Participant's death or Disability. Upon a Change in Control, the outstanding Awards
shall be subject to Section 14 hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Except as provided in the applicable Award Agreement and subject to the rules and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange, the
Participant shall generally have the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to shares of Restricted Stock during the Restricted
Period, including the right to vote such shares and to receive any dividends declared with respect to such shares. Except as provided
in the applicable Award Agreement, the Participant shall not have the rights of a stockholder with respect to shares of Common Stock subject
to Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units during the Restricted Period; provided, however, that, subject to Section 409A
of the Code, an amount equal to any dividends declared during the Restricted Period with respect to the number of Shares covered by Restricted
Stock Units or Performance Stock Units may, to the extent set forth in an Award Agreement, be provided to the Participant. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any dividend or dividend equivalent awarded with respect to Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock
Units shall, unless otherwise set forth in an applicable Award Agreement, be subject to the same restrictions, conditions and risks of
forfeiture as the underlying Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Termination of Employment or Service . The rights of Participants granted
Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units upon termination of employment or service with the Company and all
Affiliates thereof for any reason during the Restricted Period, unless otherwise set forth in the Award Agreement granting such Restricted
Stock or Restricted Stock Units, shall terminate on the Participant's Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Form of Settlement .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Administrator reserves the right in its sole discretion to provide (either at or after the grant thereof) that any Restricted
Stock Unit or Performance Stock Unit represents the right to receive the amount of cash per unit that is determined by the Administrator
in connection with the Award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Except as otherwise provided in the related Award Agreement, each Restricted Stock Unit or Performance Stock Units shall automatically,
irrespective of Black-Out Periods and without requiring any further action by the Corporation or the holder thereof, be settled (A) in
the case of Restricted Stock Units or Performance Stock Units settled in cash, on the date on which all applicable vesting conditions
and, if applicable, all performance criteria (if any) are satisfied, and (B) in the case of Restricted Stock Units or Performance
Stock Units settled in Shares, on the first Business Day following the date on which all applicable vesting conditions and, if applicable,
all performance criteria (if any) are satisfied.

**10. Deferred Stock Units**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) General . Deferred Stock Units may be issued under the Plan. The Administrator
shall, subject to the requirements of paragraph 6801(d) of the regulations to the Tax Act, determine the Eligible Recipients to whom,
and the time or times at which, Deferred Stock Units shall be made; the number of Shares to be awarded; the relevant conditions and vesting
provisions for such Deferred Stock Units; and all other conditions of the Deferred Stock Units that are not inconsistent with the terms
of the Plan. A Deferred Stock Unit is an Award attributable to a Participant's duties of an office, directorship or employment and
that, upon settlement, entitles the recipient Participant to receive one (1) Share, the Cash Equivalent of one (1) Share, or
a combination thereof, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, which entitlement shall be expressly set out in the applicable
Award Agreement.

For greater certainty, the aggregate of all amounts, each of which may be received by or in respect of a Participant in respect of a Deferred Stock Unit, shall depend, at all times, on the Fair Market Value of Shares at a time within the period that commences one year before such Participant's Termination Date and ends at the time the amount is received.

For greater certainty, no Participant or any Person with whom such Participant does not deal at arm's length, as determined for the purposes of the Tax Act, shall be entitled, either immediately or in the future, either absolutely or contingently, to receive or obtain any amount or benefit granted or to be granted for the purpose of reducing the impact, in whole or in part, of any reduction in the Fair Market Value of Shares. No Deferred Stock Units shall be granted hereunder for such purpose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) An Eligible Recipient who is a director of the Company may elect (subject
to the approval of the Administrator no later than December 31<sup>st</sup> of the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar
year to which such election is to apply), irrevocably and in advance, by filing an election notice (the "Election Notice "),
to have an amount (the " Elected Amount ") up to 100% of the
value of his or her Annual Board Retainer be satisfied in the form of Deferred Stock Units (" Board
Retainer Deferred Stock Units "). In the case of an existing director, the election must be completed, signed and delivered
to the Company no later than December 15th of the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year to which such election is
to apply. In the case of a new director, the election must be completed, signed and delivered to the Company as soon as possible, and,
in any event, no later than 30 days, after the director's appointment (subject to the approval of the Administrator within such
30-day period), with such election to be effective for amounts of Annual Board Retainer to be paid after the date of the election for
services to be performed subsequent to the date of such Election Notice. For the first year of this Section 10(b) becoming part
of the Plan, directors must make such election as soon as possible, and, in any event, no later than 30 days, after adoption of the Plan
containing this Section 10(b) and the election shall be effective for amounts of Annual Board Retainer to be paid after the
date of the election for services to be performed subsequent to the date of such Election Notice. If no election is validly made or exists
in respect of a particular calendar year, the new or existing director will be paid in cash in accordance with the Company's regular
practices of paying such cash compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Notwithstanding Section 10(b)(i), if the Board authorizes a resolution that the Eligible Recipients shall be credited with Board
Retainer Deferred Stock Units in lieu of all or a minimum amount of the Annual Board Retainer, then the Eligible Recipients shall be obliged
to accept such Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units as payment of such amounts otherwise payable to an Eligible Recipient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The Election Notice shall, subject to any minimum amount that may be required by the Board, from time to time (and in any case no
later than December 15<sup>th</sup> of the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year to which the election relates),
designate the Elected Amount as a percentage of the Annual Board Retainer for the applicable calendar year that is to be satisfied in
the form of Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units, with the remaining percentage to be paid in cash in accordance with the Company's
regular practices of paying such cash compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) In the event that an Elected Amount would result in the granting of a fractional number of Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units, the
number of Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units that are to be granted in respect of such Elected Amount shall automatically, and without
requiring any action on the part of the applicable Eligible Recipient, be rounded up to the nearest whole number of Board Retainer Deferred
Stock Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Any Election Notice shall, once delivered to the Company, be irrevocable in respect of the calendar year in which it was made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Each director that has filed a valid Election Notice or who is entitled to
receive Deferred Stock Units in accordance with Section 10(b)(ii) shall be credited with a number of Board Retainer Deferred
Stock Units equal to the portion of the Annual Board Retainer corresponding to the Elected Amount divided by the Fair Market Value as
of the corresponding Deferred Stock Unit Grant Date. Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units for any calendar year will be credited to each
electing director in equal portions on the last Business Day of each fiscal quarter during the calendar year to which the applicable director's
Elected Amount relates (each such date being a "Deferred Stock Unit Grant Date ") without requiring any further action
on the part of the applicable director; provided that if the division of such Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units into equal amounts of
Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units would result in a fractional number of Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units being credited to a director
on any Deferred Stock Unit Grant Date, the number of Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units that are to be credited to the applicable director
on such Deferred Stock Unit Grant Date shall automatically, and without requiring any action on the part of the applicable Eligible Recipient,
be rounded up to the nearest whole number of Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units and the number of Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units
that are to be credited to the applicable director on the immediately succeeding Deferred Stock Unit Grant Date shall automatically, and
without requiring any action on the part of the applicable Eligible Recipient, be reduced on a corresponding basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) In the absence of an Eligible Recipient delivering to the Company a new Election Notice, within the time specified in Section 10(b)(i),
in respect of the following calendar year, the Eligible Recipient's Election Notice shall remain in effect for subsequent calendar
years until terminated or changed by the Eligible Recipient. No Eligible Recipient shall be entitled to file more than one Election Notice
for any calendar year unless specifically authorized by resolution of the Board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Any Board Retainer Deferred Stock Units granted to an Eligible Recipient to satisfy an Elected Amount pursuant to this Section 10(b) or
in accordance with a resolution of the Board as set forth in Section 10(b)(ii) shall vest in full upon being credited to the
applicable Eligible Recipient but will not become payable until the applicable date specified in the Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice
delivered, or deemed to have been delivered, by the holder thereof to the Company in accordance with the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Redemption of Deferred Stock Units .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each Participant that holds Deferred Stock Units shall be entitled to redeem
his or her Deferred Stock Units on up to two specified dates during the period commencing on the Business Day immediately following his
or her Termination Date and ending on December 15th of the first calendar year following such Termination Date, or any shorter redemption
period set out in the relevant Award Agreement, by (subject to the appointment of a third party administrator and the implementation of
the required procedures of such third party administrator) delivering to the Company a written notice of election (the "Deferred
Stock Unit Redemption Notice "), in advance of the applicable Participant's Termination Date and on a date that is not
during a Black-Out Period, indicating (a) the Participant's election to have their Deferred Stock Units redeemed on one or
more particular dates, (b) the desired date(s) of settlement, and (c) the number of Deferred Stock Units desired to be
settled on such date(s); provided that such desired date(s) of settlement shall not be permitted to be during a Black-Out Period
unless the desired date that is during a Black-Out Period is no less than 30 days following the date of the Deferred Stock Unit Redemption
Notice delivered by the Participant in question.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each Deferred Stock Unit shall be settled in the manner set out in the applicable Award Agreement, which manner of settlement shall
be: (i) by way of payment of the cash equivalent of the Fair Market Value of one Share as of the date of settlement; (ii) by
way of the issuance of one Share issued from treasury; or (iii) by way of payment and issuance, as applicable, of a combination of
cash and Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Subject to Section 10(c)(iv), settlement of Deferred Stock Units shall take place as soon as commercially and reasonably possible
following the date(s) specified or deemed to be specified in the Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice, and in all events prior to
December 20<sup>th</sup> of the calendar year following the calendar year that includes the Participant's Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) If in the opinion of the Board, a Participant is in possession of material undisclosed information regarding either or both of the
Company and the Shares on the date specified or deemed to be specified in the Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice, the settlement of
such Participant's Deferred Stock Units shall be postponed until the earliest of the date on which (i) the Board is satisfied
the Participant is no longer in possession of any such material undisclosed information, or (ii) December 20th of the year following
the year of the Participant's Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Participant receives Shares in
satisfaction of an Award during a Black-Out Period, the Company shall advise such Participant of the same in writing and such Participant
shall not be entitled to sell or otherwise dispose of such Shares until such Black-Out Period has expired.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) no payment shall be made in respect of a Deferred Stock Unit until after the Participant's Termination Date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) all amounts payable to, or in respect of, a Participant hereunder shall be paid on or before December 31st of the calendar year
commencing immediately after the Participant's Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the following provisions apply to U.S. Participants: (i) if a U.S. Participant is to be given an ability to elect the time of
settlement of his Deferred Stock Units, such election may only allow the U.S. Participant to choose a time of settlement that complies
with Section 409A of the Code, (ii) for purposes of any payments to be made on a U.S. Participant's Termination Date,
such Termination Date must be the date of the U.S. Participant's "separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A
of the Code ("Separation from Service") and such payments must be made within 60 days of such U.S. Participant's Termination
Date, such date during such period determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and (iii) the provisions of Section 10(c)(i) and
10(c)(iv) shall not apply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) if the Deferred Stock Units of a U.S. Participant are subject to tax under both the income tax laws of Canada and the income tax laws
of the United States, the following special rules regarding forfeiture will apply. For greater clarity, these forfeiture provisions
are intended to avoid adverse tax consequences under Code Section 409A and/or under paragraph 6801(d) of the regulations under
the Tax Act, that may result because of the different requirements as the time of redemption of Deferred Stock Units (and thus the time
of taxation) with respect to a U.S. Participant's Separation from Service and the U.S. Participant's Termination Date under
Canadian tax law. The intended consequence of this Section 10(c)(v)(D) is that payments to such U.S. Participant in respect
of Deferred Stock Units will only occur if such U.S. Participant's cessation of services to the Company or an Affiliate constitutes
both a Separation from Service and a Termination Date. If such a U.S. Participant does not experience both a Separation from Service and
a Termination Date such Deferred Stock Units shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Deemed Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice and Settlement of Deferred Stock Unit Awards.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If a Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice is not received by the Company on or before a Participant's Termination Date or the
Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice does not specify a date or dates within the time period noted in Section 10(c)(i), the Participant
shall be deemed to have delivered a Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice specifying the Business Day immediately following his or her
Termination Date as the desired date of settlement for all Deferred Stock Units held thereby. For Deferred Stock Units subject to Section 409A
of the Code, in the event a Participant has not timely delivered a valid Election Notice, the Participant shall be deemed to have delivered
a Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice specifying the Business Day immediately following the date of his or her Separation From Service
as of the desired date of settlement for all Deferred Stock Units held thereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each Deferred Stock Unit shall automatically, and without requiring any further action on the part of the holder thereof, be settled
on the applicable date specified in the Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice delivered, or deemed to have been delivered, by the holder
thereof to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Where the settlement of a Deferred Stock Unit is made by way of cash, the calculation of the amount to which the holder thereof is
entitled shall be made as of the date specified or deemed to be specified in the Deferred Stock Unit Redemption Notice. All amounts payable,
whether in cash or Shares, shall be net of any applicable withholding taxes or other source deductions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Deferred Stock Unit Award Agreements . Award Agreements in respect
of Deferred Stock Units shall contain such terms that may be considered necessary in order that the Deferred Stock Unit will comply with
any provisions respecting deferred share units in the Tax Act (including such terms and conditions so as to ensure that the Deferred Stock
Units granted to Canadian Participants do not constitute a " salary deferral
arrangement " as defined in subsection 248(1) of the Tax Act by reason of the exemption in paragraph 6801(d) of
the regulations to the Tax Act) or other laws in force in any country or jurisdiction of which the Participant may from time to time be
a resident or citizen or the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Award of Dividend Equivalents . Dividend equivalents may, as determined
by the Board in its sole discretion, be awarded in respect of Deferred Stock Units on the same basis as cash dividends declared and paid
on Shares as if the Participant was a shareholder of record of Shares on the relevant record date. Dividend equivalents, if any, will
be credited to the Participant in additional Deferred Stock Units, the number of which shall be equal to a fraction where the numerator
is the product of (i) the number of Deferred Stock Units of such Participant on the date that dividends are paid multiplied by (ii) the
dividend paid per Share and the denominator of which is the Fair Market Value of one Share calculated on the date that dividends are paid.
Any additional Deferred Stock Units credited to a Participant as a dividend equivalent pursuant to this Section 10(f) shall
be subject to the same terms and conditions, including vesting conditions, and time of payment, as the underlying Deferred Stock Unit
Award.

**11. Other Stock-Based Awards.**

Subject to the rules and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange, other forms of Awards valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, Common Stock, including but not limited to dividend equivalents, may be granted either alone or in addition to other Awards (other than in connection with Options or Stock Appreciation Rights) under the Plan. Any dividend or dividend equivalent awarded hereunder shall be subject to the same restrictions, conditions and risks of forfeiture as the underlying Award. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have sole and complete authority to determine the individuals to whom and the time or times at which such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be granted, the number of Shares to be granted pursuant to such Other Stock-Based Awards, or the manner in which such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be settled (e.g., in Shares, cash or other property), or the conditions to the vesting and/or payment or settlement of such Other Stock-Based Awards (which may include, but not be limited to, achievement of performance criteria) and all other terms and conditions of such Other Stock-Based Awards.

**12. Stock Bonuses.**

In the event that the Administrator grants a Stock Bonus, the Shares constituting such Stock Bonus shall, as determined by the Administrator, be evidenced in uncertificated form or by a book entry record or a certificate issued in the name of the Participant to whom such grant was made and delivered to such Participant as soon as practicable after the date on which such Stock Bonus is payable.

**13. Cash Awards.**

The Administrator may grant Awards that are payable solely in cash, as deemed by the Administrator to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, and such Cash Awards shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, from time to time. Cash Awards may be granted with value and payment contingent upon the achievement of performance criteria.

**14. Change in Control Provisions.**

Except as provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event that (a) a Change in Control occurs and (b) either (x) an outstanding Award is not assumed or substituted in connection therewith or (y) an outstanding Award is assumed or substituted in connection therewith and the Participant's employment or service is terminated by the Company, its successor or an Affiliate thereof without Cause on or after the effective date of the Change in Control but prior to twelve (12) months following the Change in Control, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any unvested or unexercisable portion of any Award carrying a right to exercise shall become fully vested and exercisable with respect
to any purely time-based conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions and forfeiture conditions applicable to an Award granted under the Plan
shall lapse with respect to any purely time-based conditions and such Awards shall be deemed fully vested with respect to any purely time-based
conditions; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) any performance conditions imposed with respect to any Award shall be deemed to be achieved at the greater of target and actual performance
levels (as determined by the Administrator in its discretion) and any Awards (or portion thereof) that remain unvested or unexercisable
shall be forfeited.

For purposes of this Section 14, an outstanding Award shall be considered to be assumed or substituted for if, following the Change in Control, the Award remains subject to substantially the same terms and conditions that were applicable to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control except that, if the Award related to Shares, the Award instead confers the right to receive common equity of the acquiring entity or its direct or indirect parent (or cash or such other security as may be determined by the Administrator, in its discretion). The provisions of this Section 14 shall also apply in the event of the termination of a Participant's employment for Good Reason on or after the effective date of the Change in Control but prior to twelve (12) months following the Change in Control, but only to the extent specifically provided in the applicable Award Agreement.

**15. Voting Proxy.**

The Company reserves the right to require the Participant, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to appoint such Person as shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion as the Participant's proxy with respect to all applicable unvested Awards of Restricted Stock which the Participant may be the record holder of from time to time to (A) attend all meetings of the holders of the shares of Common Stock, with full power to vote and act for the Participant with respect to such Awards in the same manner and extent that the Participant might were the Participant personally present at such meetings, and (B) execute and deliver, on behalf of the Participant, any written consent in lieu of a meeting of the holders of the shares of Common Stock in the same manner and extent that the Participant might but for the proxy granted pursuant to this sentence.

**16. Amendment and Termination.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Administrator may amend, alter or terminate the Plan in its sole discretion without stockholder approval (except as otherwise
set forth in the Plan or as required by applicable law), but no amendment, alteration, or termination shall be made that would impair
the rights of a Participant under any outstanding Award without such Participant's consent. Unless the Board determines otherwise,
the Board shall obtain approval of the Company's stockholders for any amendment to the Plan that would require such approval in
order to satisfy the requirements of any rules of the stock exchange on which the Common Stock is traded or other applicable law.
The Administrator may amend the terms of any outstanding Award, without stockholder approval (except as otherwise set forth in the Plan
or as required by applicable law), prospectively or retroactively, but, subject to Section 5 hereof, no such amendment shall impair
the rights of any Participant without the Participant's consent; provided that the Administrator may amend the terms of any such
Award to take effect retroactively or otherwise, as deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of conforming the Award to any applicable
law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement relating to such Award (including, but not limited to, Section 409A
of the Code), and by accepting an Award under this Plan, the Participant thereby agrees to any amendment made pursuant to this Section 16
to such Award (as determined by the Administrator) without further consideration or action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding Section 16(a), other than for adjustments made pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Administrator shall be
required to obtain stockholder approval to make the following amendments:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any amendment to increase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Any amendment to the terms of outstanding Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or other entitlements to reduce the Exercise Price or
Base Price, as applicable, of such Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or other entitlements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Any cancellation of outstanding Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or other entitlements in exchange for Options, Stock Appreciation
Rights, or other entitlements with an Exercise Price or Base Price, as applicable, that is less than the Exercise Price or Base Price
of the original Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or other entitlements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Any cancellation of outstanding Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or other entitlements with an Exercise Price that is less than
one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the related Shares in exchange for cash or Cash Awards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Any amendment that extends the term of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights or any other Awards beyond the original expiry;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Amendments to the plan amendment provisions.

**17. Unfunded Status of Plan.**

The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

**18. Withholding Taxes.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, all distributions, issuances or delivery of Shares or payments to a Participant (or
to the liquidator, executor or administrator, as the case may be, of the estate of the Participant) under the Plan shall be made net of
applicable tax withholdings and other source deductions. Each Participant shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an Award
first becomes includible in the gross income of such Participant for purposes of applicable taxes, pay to the Company, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Company regarding payment of, an amount in respect of such taxes up to the maximum statutory rates in the Participant's
applicable jurisdiction with respect to the Award, as determined by the Company. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be
conditional on the making of such payments or arrangements, and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct
any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to such Participant. Without limiting the foregoing:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Whenever cash is to be paid pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient to satisfy
any applicable withholding tax requirements related thereto as determined by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, subject to compliance with relevant Black-Out Periods and applicable law, if the
event giving rise to the withholding obligation involves an issuance or delivery of Shares, then the withholding obligation shall be satisfied
by the sale by the Company, the Company's transfer agent and registrar or any administrative agent or trustee appointed by the Company,
on behalf of and as agent for the Participant as soon as permissible and practicable, of such number of Shares as would be required for
the proceeds of such sale to amount to no less than the sum of the values of the applicable tax required to be withheld and the other
source deductions required to be made by the Company, which proceeds shall be delivered to the Company for remittance of the applicable
amounts to the appropriate governmental authorities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The Company may also use any other method of obtaining the necessary payment or proceeds, as permitted by law, to satisfy its withholding
obligation with respect to any Award as determined by the Company. Without limiting the foregoing, in the Company may implement special
administrative procedures to withhold additional shares of Common Stock in respect of a Participant's withholding obligations in
instances where the Administrator determines that a "sell-to-cover" arrangement has not yielded sufficient proceeds to satisfy
the applicable withholding obligation. Such procedures shall be implemented in a manner intended to constitute exempt dispositions for
purposes of any Participant who is subject to reporting under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Any delivery obligations of the Company
hereunder may be made subject to such administrative procedures, in the discretion of Administrator and notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary (but subject to Section 29 hereof).

**19. Transfer of Awards.**

Until such time as the Awards are fully vested and/or exercisable in accordance with the Plan or an Award Agreement, no purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, charge, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in or lien on, any Award or any agreement or commitment to do any of the foregoing, directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise (each, a "Transfer") will be valid. Any purported Transfer of an Award or any economic benefit or interest therein in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall be null and void ab initio, and shall not create any obligation or liability of the Company, and any Person purportedly acquiring any Award or any economic benefit or interest therein transferred in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall not be entitled to be recognized as a holder of any Shares or other property underlying such Award. An Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant or, during any period during which the Participant is under a legal disability, by the Participant's guardian or legal representative.

**20. Continued Employment or Service.**

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the grant of an Award hereunder shall confer upon any Eligible Recipient any right to continued employment or service with the Company or any Affiliate thereof, as the case may be, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate thereof to terminate the employment or service of any of its Eligible Recipients at any time. References in this Plan to "employment", "employees" or similar/related terms or concepts shall be construed to include "partnerships," "partners" or similar/related terms or concepts where an individual's relationship with the Company or its Affiliates is based on their status being that of a partner of a partnership rather than as an employee. Any wording amendments necessary to give effect to such intent shall be implied into this Plan but shall not serve to imply an employment relationship between (i) the Company or its Affiliates; and (ii) an individual, where such an employment relationship did not exist previously.

**21. Effective Date.**

The Plan was adopted by the Board on April 21, 2026, and shall become effective without further action as of the date that it is approved by the Company's stockholders (the "Effective Date").

**22. Term of Plan.**

No Award shall be granted pursuant to the Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but Awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date.

**23. Securities Matters and Regulations.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the obligation of the Company to sell or deliver Common Stock with respect to any
Award granted under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including all applicable federal and
state securities laws, and the obtaining of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by the
Administrator. The Administrator may require, as a condition of the issuance and delivery of certificates evidencing shares of Common
Stock pursuant to the terms hereof, that the recipient of such shares make such agreements and representations, and that such certificates
bear such legends, as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Award is subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Administrator determines that the listing, registration or qualification
of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Plan is required by any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent
or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the grant of an Award
or the issuance of Common Stock, no such Award shall be granted or payment made or Common Stock issued, in whole or in part, unless such
listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Administrator.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In the event that the disposition of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan is not covered by a then current registration statement
under the Securities Act and is not otherwise exempt from such registration, such Common Stock shall be restricted against Transfer to
the extent required by the Securities Act or regulations thereunder, and the Administrator may require a Participant receiving Common
Stock pursuant to the Plan, as a condition precedent to receipt of such Common Stock, to represent to the Company in writing that the
Common Stock acquired by such Participant is acquired for investment only and not with a view to distribution.

**24. No Fractional Shares.**

No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan. The Administrator shall determine whether cash, other Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

**25. Beneficiary.**

A Participant may file with the Administrator a written designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Administrator and may, from time to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated beneficiary survives the Participant, the executor or administrator of the Participant's estate shall be deemed to be the Participant's beneficiary.

**26. Paperless Administration.**

In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the documentation, granting or exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless documentation, granting or exercise of Awards by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system.

**27. Severability.**

If any provision of the Plan is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of the Plan shall not be affected but shall be applied as if the invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included in the Plan.

**28. Clawback.**

Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Plan, any Award which is subject to recovery under any law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement, will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement). A Participant receiving an Award under the Plan shall be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed to the application of any such policy or policies.

**29. Section 409A of the Code.**

The Plan as well as payments and benefits under the Plan are intended to be exempt from, or to the extent subject thereto, to comply with Section 409A of the Code, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and operated in accordance therewith. Any deferral elections made hereunder by U.S. Participants shall be required to be made in a manner which complies with the requirements of Section 409A, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment or service with the Company for purposes of the Plan and no payment shall be due to the Participant under the Plan or any Award until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a "separation from service" from the Company and its Affiliates within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the "short term deferral period" as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent that any Awards (or any other amounts payable under any plan, program or arrangement of the Company or any of its Affiliates) are payable upon a separation from service and such payment would result in the imposition of any individual tax and penalty interest charges imposed under Section 409A of the Code, the settlement and payment of such awards (or other amounts) shall instead be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following such separation from service (or upon the Participant's death, if earlier). Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Plan shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. The Administrator shall have the sole authority to make any accelerated distributions permissible under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4) to Participants with respect to any deferred amounts, provided that such distributions meets the requirements of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4). The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments or benefits described in this Plan will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A of the Code from applying to any such payment. The Participant shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A of the Code.

**30. Governing Law.**

The Plan, and all claims, causes of action, actions, suits, and proceedings (whether in contract, tort or statute) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Plan, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Plan (including any claim, cause of action, action, suit, or proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to any transaction contemplated by this Plan, any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Plan, or as an inducement to enter into this Plan or accept an Award), shall be governed by, enforced in accordance with, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law of such state that would result in the application of the statute of limitations of any other jurisdiction.

**31. Titles and Headings.**

The titles and headings of the sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.

**32. Successors.**

The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation, conversion, domestication, transfer, continuance or other reorganization of the Company.

**33. Relationship to Other Benefits.**

No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare, or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

<u>Re: Hut 8 Corp. — Registration Statement on Form S-8</u>

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to Hut 8 Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "<u>Registration Statement</u>") to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "<u>Securities Act</u>") on the date hereof, relating to the registration by the Company of up to 5,000,000 shares (the "<u>Shares</u>") of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "<u>Common Stock</u>"), issuable pursuant to the Amended and Restated Hut 8 Corp. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "<u>Plan</u>").

This opinion letter is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

In rendering the opinions stated herein, we have examined and relied upon the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Registration Statement in the form to be filed with the Commission on the date hereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) a copy of the Plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) an executed copy of a certificate of Victor Semah, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary of the Company, dated the date hereof (the "<u>Secretary's Certificate</u>");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) a copy of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, in effect as of the date hereof, certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as of June 11, 2026, and certified pursuant to the Secretary's Certificate as being in effect on the date of the resolutions referred to below and as of the date hereof (the "<u>Certificate of Incorporation</u>");

Hut 8 Corp.

June 11, 2026

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) a copy of the Company's Amended and Restated By-laws, in effect as of the date hereof, certified pursuant to the Secretary's Certificate as being in effect on the date of the resolutions referred to below and as of the date hereof (the "<u>By-laws</u>"); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) a copy of certain resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company, adopted on April 21, 2026 relating to the approval of the Plan and certain related matters and certified pursuant to the Secretary's Certificate.

We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company and such agreements, certificates and receipts of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions stated below, including the facts and conclusions set forth in the Secretary's Certificate.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, including electronic signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photocopied copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making our examination of executed documents, we have assumed that the parties thereto, other than the Company, had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and the validity and binding effect thereof on such parties and the enforceability thereof against such parties. As to any facts relevant to the opinions stated herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others and of public officials, including the facts and conclusions set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and the Secretary's Certificate.

In rendering the opinion stated herein, we have also assumed that: (i) when issued in book-entry form, an appropriate account statement evidencing the Shares credited to the recipient's account maintained with the Company's transfer agent has been or will be issued by the Company's transfer agent; (ii) the issuance of the Shares will be properly recorded in the books and records of the Company; (iii) each award agreement under which options, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other awards are granted pursuant to the Plan will be consistent with the Plan and will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto; (iv) the consideration received by the Company for each of the Shares delivered pursuant to the Plan shall not be less than the per share par value of the Shares; and (v) the issuance of the Shares does not violate or conflict with any agreement or instrument binding on the Company (except that we do not make this assumption with respect to the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws or those agreements or instruments expressed to be governed by the laws of the State of New York which are listed in Part II of the Registration Statement).

We do not express any opinion with respect to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "<u>DGCL</u>").

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated herein, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Company under the DGCL and, when the Shares are issued to the participants in accordance with the terms and conditions of an applicable Plan and the applicable award agreement for consideration in an amount at least equal to the par value of such Shares, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Hut 8 Corp.

June 11, 2026

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder. This opinion is expressed as of the date hereof unless otherwise expressly stated, and we disclaim any undertaking to advise you of any subsequent changes in the facts stated or assumed herein or of any subsequent changes in applicable laws.
