    Section 2.1 Creation and Issue of Warrants.

    A maximum of 8,391,666 Warrants (subject to adjustment as herein provided) are hereby created and authorized to be issued on the Issue Date in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. By written order of the Corporation, the Warrant Agent shall issue and deliver Warrants in certificated or uncertificated form pursuant to Section 2.5 hereof to Registered Warrantholders pursuant to closing of the Offering and record the name of the Registered Warrantholders on the Warrants register. Registration of interests in Warrants held by the Depository may be evidenced by a position appearing on the register for Warrants of the Warrant Agent for an amount representing the aggregate number of such Warrants outstanding from time to time.

    Section 2.2 Terms of Warrants.

    (1) Subject to the applicable conditions for exercise set out in Article 3 having been satisfied and subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4.1, each whole Warrant shall entitle each Warrantholder thereof, upon exercise and payment of the Exercise Price at any time after the Issue Date and prior to the Expiry Time, to acquire one Warrant Share.

    (2) Each whole Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to such other rights and privileges as are set forth in this Indenture.

    (3) No fractional Warrants shall be issued or otherwise provided for hereunder and Warrants may only be exercised in a sufficient number to acquire whole numbers of Warrant Shares. Any fractional Warrants shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no consideration shall be paid for any fractional Warrant.

    (4) If, before the Expiry Date, the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the Exchange or other principal recognized stock exchange is equal to or exceeds $0.70 for a period of 10 consecutive Trading Days, the Corporation may, within 15 days after the 10th consecutive Trading Day of any such period, in its absolute discretion, deliver a notice in accordance with the notice provisions contained herein and any other applicable laws accelerating the Expiry Date to the 30th day after the date of such notice (the "Accelerated Expiry Date", and collectively the "Acceleration Provisions").

    (5) The number of Warrant Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the Warrants and the Exercise Price therefor shall be adjusted upon the events and in the manner specified in Section 4.1.

    (6) Neither the Corporation nor the Warrant Agent shall have any obligation to deliver Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any Warrant if the person to whom such shares are to be delivered is a resident of a country or political subdivision thereof in which the Warrant Shares may not lawfully be issued pursuant to applicable securities legislation. The Corporation or the Warrant Agent may require any person to provide proof of an applicable exemption from such securities legislation to the Corporation and Warrant Agent before Warrant Shares are delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant.

    
        7

    

    

    Section 2.3 Warrantholder not a Shareholder.

    Except as may be specifically provided herein, nothing in this Indenture or in the holding of a Warrant Certificate, entitlement to a Warrant or otherwise, shall, in itself, confer or be construed as conferring upon a Warrantholder any right or interest whatsoever as a Shareholder, including, but not limited to, the right to vote at, to receive notice of, or to attend, meetings of Shareholders or any other proceedings of the Corporation, or the right to Dividends and other allocations.

    Section 2.4 Warrants to Rank Pari Passu.

    (1) The Warrants may each be issued in either certificated or uncertificated form. Each Warrant issued to a U.S. Warrantholder must be issued in individually certificated form and bear the legend set forth in Section 2.8(1). All Warrants issued in certificated form shall be evidenced by a Warrant Certificate (including all replacements issued in accordance with this Indenture), substantially in the form and bearing the applicable legends as set out in Schedule "A" hereto, which shall be dated as of the Issue Date, shall bear such distinguishing letters and numbers as the Corporation may, with the approval of the Warrant Agent, prescribe, and shall be issuable in any denomination excluding fractions. All Warrants issued to the Depository may be in either a certificated or uncertificated form, such uncertificated form being evidenced by a book position on the register of Warrantholders to be maintained by the Warrant Agent in accordance with Section 2.6.

    (2) Each Warrantholder by purchasing such Warrant acknowledges and agrees that the terms and conditions set forth in the form of the Warrant Certificate set out in Schedule "A" hereto shall apply to all Warrants and Warrantholders regardless of whether such Warrants are issued in certificated or uncertificated form or whether such Warrantholders are Registered Warrantholders or owners of Warrants who beneficially hold security entitlements in respect of the Warrants through a Depository.

    Section 2.6 Book Entry Warrants.

    (1) Registration of beneficial interests in and transfers of Warrants held by the Depository shall be made only through the book entry registration system and no Warrant Certificates shall be issued in respect of such Warrants except where physical certificates evidencing ownership in such securities are required or as set out herein or as may be requested by the Depository, as determined by the Corporation, from time to time. Except as provided in this Section 2.6, owners of beneficial interests in any CDS Global Warrants shall not be entitled to have Warrants registered in their names and shall not receive or be entitled to receive Warrants in definitive form or to have their names appear in the register referred to in Section 2.9 herein. Notwithstanding any terms set out herein, Warrants having the legend set forth in Section 2.8(1) herein may not be held in the name of the Depository or in the form of Uncertificated Warrants.

    
        8

    (a) the Depository notifies the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as depository in connection with the Book Entry Warrants and the Corporation is unable to locate a qualified successor;

    (b) the Corporation determines that the Depository is no longer willing, able or qualified to discharge its responsibilities as holder of the CDS Global Warrants and the Corporation is unable to locate a qualified successor;

    (c) the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency or otherwise ceases to be eligible to be a depository and the Corporation is unable to locate a qualified successor;

    (d) the Corporation determines that the Warrants shall no longer be held as Book Entry Warrants through the Depository;

    (e) such right is required by applicable law, as determined by the Corporation and the Corporation's Counsel;

    (f) the Warrant is to be Authenticated in the United States or to or for the account or benefit of a person in the United States or a U.S. Person (in which case, the Warrant Certificate shall contain the legend set forth in Section 2.8(1), if applicable); or

    (g) such registration is effected in accordance with the internal procedures of the Depository and the Warrant Agent,

    following which, Warrants for those holders requesting the same shall be registered and issued to the beneficial owners of such Warrants or their nominees as directed by the holder. The Corporation shall provide a certificate executed by an officer of the Corporation giving notice to the Warrant Agent of the occurrence of any event outlined in Section 2.6(2)(a) to (f).

    (3) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.6, any exchange of CDS Global Warrants for Warrants which are not CDS Global Warrants may be made in whole or in part in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11, mutatis mutandis.  All such Warrants issued in exchange for a CDS Global Warrant or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depository for such CDS Global Warrants shall direct and shall be entitled to the same benefits and be subject to the same terms and conditions (except insofar as they relate specifically to CDS Global Warrants or to any legend required by Section 2.8(1) and the restrictions set out in such legend) as the CDS Global Warrants or portion thereof surrendered upon such exchange.

    (4) Every Warrant that is Authenticated upon registration or transfer of a CDS Global Warrant, or in exchange for or in lieu of a CDS Global Warrant or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section 2.6, or otherwise, shall be Authenticated in the form of, and shall be, a CDS Global Warrant, unless such Warrant is registered in the name of a person other than the Depository for such CDS Global Warrant or a nominee thereof.

    
        9

    

    

    (5) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, subject to applicable law, the CDS Global Warrant will be issued as an Uncertificated Warrant, unless otherwise requested in writing by the Depository or the Corporation.

    (6) The rights of beneficial owners of Warrants who hold securities entitlements in respect of the Warrants through the book entry registration system shall be limited to those established by applicable law and agreements between the Depository and the Book Entry Participants and between such Book Entry Participants and the beneficial owners of Warrants who hold securities entitlements in respect of the Warrants through the book entry registration system, and such rights must be exercised through a Book Entry Participant in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository.

    (7) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Corporation nor the Warrant Agent nor any agent thereof shall have any responsibility or liability for:

    (a) the electronic records maintained by the Depository relating to any ownership interests or any other interests in the Warrants or the depository system maintained by the Depository, or payments made on account of any ownership interest or any other interest of any person in any Warrant represented by an electronic position in the book entry registration system (other than the Depository or its nominee);

    (b) maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of the Depository or any Book Entry Participant relating to any such interest; or

    (c) any advice or representation made or given by the Depository or those contained herein that relate to the rules and regulations of the Depository or any action to be taken by the Depository on its own direction or at the direction of any Book Entry Participant.

    (8) The Corporation may terminate the application of this Section 2.6 in its sole discretion in which case all Warrants shall be evidenced by Warrant Certificates registered in the name of a person other than the Depository.

    Section 2.7 Warrant Certificate.

    (1) For Warrants issued in certificated form (including all replacements issued in accordance with this Indenture), the form of certificate representing the Warrants shall be substantially as set out in Schedule "A" hereto or such other form as is authorized in writing from time to time by the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. Each Warrant Certificate shall be Authenticated on behalf of the Warrant Agent. Each Warrant Certificate shall be signed by at any one duly authorized signatory of the Corporation whose signature shall appear on the Warrant Certificate and may be printed, lithographed or otherwise mechanically reproduced thereon and, in such event, certificates so signed are as valid and binding upon the Corporation as if it had been signed manually.  Any Warrant Certificate which has a signature as hereinbefore provided shall be valid notwithstanding that any person whose signature is printed, lithographed or mechanically reproduced no longer holds office at the date of issuance of such certificate. The Warrant Certificates may be engraved, printed or lithographed, or partly in one form and partly in another, as the Warrant Agent may determine.

    (2) The Warrant Agent shall Authenticate Uncertificated Warrants (whether upon original issuance, exchange, registration of transfer, partial payment, or otherwise) by completing its Internal Procedures and the Corporation shall, and hereby acknowledges that it shall, thereupon be deemed to have duly and validly issued such Uncertificated Warrants under this Indenture.  Such Authentication shall be conclusive evidence that such Uncertificated Warrant has been duly issued hereunder and that the holder or holders are entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.  The register shall be final and conclusive evidence as to all matters relating to Uncertificated Warrants with respect to which this Indenture requires the Warrant Agent to maintain records or accounts.  In case of differences between the register at any time and any other time, the register at the later time shall be controlling, absent manifest error, and such Uncertificated Warrants are binding on the Corporation.

    
        10

    

    

    (3) Any Warrant Certificate validly issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture in effect at the time of issue of such Warrant Certificate shall, subject to the terms of this Indenture and applicable law, validly entitle the holder to acquire Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that the form of such Warrant Certificate may not be in the form currently required by this Indenture.

    (4) No Warrant shall be considered issued and shall be valid or obligatory or shall entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture, until it has been Authenticated by the Warrant Agent. Authentication by the Warrant Agent, including by way of entry on the register, shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Warrant Agent as to the validity of this Indenture or of such Warrant Certificates or Uncertificated Warrants (except the due Authentication thereof) or as to the performance by the Corporation of its obligations under this Indenture and the Warrant Agent shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of the Warrants or any of them or of the consideration thereof. Authentication by the Warrant Agent shall be conclusive evidence as against the Corporation that the Warrants so Authenticated have been duly issued hereunder and that the holder thereof is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

    (5) No Warrant Certificate shall be considered issued and Authenticated or, if Authenticated, shall be obligatory or shall entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture, until it has been Authenticated by signature by or on behalf of the Warrant Agent substantially in the form of the Warrant set out in Schedule "A" hereto. Such Authentication on any such Warrant Certificate shall be conclusive evidence that such Warrant Certificate is duly Authenticated and is valid and a binding obligation of the Corporation and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

    (6) No Uncertificated Warrant shall be considered issued and shall be obligatory or shall entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture, until it has been Authenticated by entry on the register of the particulars of the Uncertificated Warrant. Such entry on the register of the particulars of an Uncertificated Warrant shall be conclusive evidence that such Uncertificated Warrant is a valid and binding obligation of the Corporation and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

    Section 2.8 Legends.

    (1) Any certificates representing Warrants and any certificates issued in replacement thereof or in substitution therefor prior to May 1, 2021 shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

    "UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE MAY 1, 2021."

    
        11

    

    

    (2) Neither the Warrants nor the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof (the "Warrant Shares") have been, nor will they be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the securities laws of any state, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in the United States or to, or for the account of, a U.S. Person, unless an exemption from the registration requirements under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws is available or the Warrants and Warrant Shares, as applicable, are the subject of an effective registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act.

    Certificates representing Warrants and, if applicable, any Warrant Shares issued on exercise of Warrants originally issued to a U.S. Warrantholder, and any certificates issued in replacement thereof or in substitution therefor, shall, until such time as the same is no longer required under applicable requirements of the U.S. Securities Act or applicable state securities laws, bear a legend in substantially the following form:

    "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE EXERCISED IN THE UNITED STATES OR BY OR ON BEHALF OF A U.S. PERSON OR A PERSON IN THE UNITED STATES EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN AVAILBLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.  "UNITED STATES" AND "U.S. PERSON" ARE AS DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.

    THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, EXCHANGED, MORTGAGED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY,  EXCEPT: (A) TO DISTRICT METALS CORP. (THE "CORPORATION"), (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (C) IN ACCORDANCE WITH (1) RULE 144A UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, IF AVAILABLE, OR (2) RULE 144 UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN EACH CASE IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (D) IN ANOTHER TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PROVIDED THAT THE HOLDER HAS, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISHED TO THE CORPORATION AND ITS TRANSFER AGENT AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION, IN EITHER CASE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION AND ITS TRANSFER AGENT. DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE "GOOD DELIVERY" IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN CANADA OR ELSEWHERE."

    
        12

    

    

    provided, if any such Warrants are being sold outside the United States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S and in compliance with applicable local securities laws and regulations, the legend set forth above may be removed by providing a declaration in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (or in such other form as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time) to the Warrant Agent, together with such additional documentation as the Corporation or Warrant Agent may reasonably request, which may include the delivery of an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation, that the proposed transfer may be effected without registration under the U.S. Securities Act; provided further, that if the Warrants are being sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, if available, the legend may be removed by delivering to the Corporation and the Warrant Agent an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation, to the effect that the legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the U.S. Securities Act.

    (3) Each CDS Global Warrant if issued on a certificated basis originally issued in Canada and held by the Depository, and each CDS Global Warrant issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof shall bear or be deemed to bear the following legend or such variations thereof as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time:

    "UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS CLEARING AND DEPOSITORY SERVICES INC. ("CDS") TO DISTRICT METALS CORP. (THE "ISSUER") OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IN RESPECT THEREOF IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CDS & CO., OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CDS & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF, CDS & CO., HAS A PROPERTY INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HEREIN AND IT IS A VIOLATION OF ITS RIGHTS FOR ANOTHER PERSON TO HOLD, TRANSFER OR DEAL WITH THIS CERTIFICATE."

    (4) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, in processing and registering transfers of Warrants, no duty or responsibility whatsoever shall rest upon the Warrant Agent to determine the compliance by any transferor or transferee with the terms of the legends contained in Section 2.8(1) or (3), as applicable, or with the relevant securities laws or regulations, including, without limitation, Regulation S, and the Warrant Agent shall be entitled to assume that all transfers that are processed in accordance with this Indenture are legal and proper.

    Section 2.9 Register of Warrants

    (1) The Warrant Agent shall maintain records and accounts concerning the Warrants, whether certificated or uncertificated, which shall contain the information called for below with respect to each Warrant, together with such other information as may be required by law or as the Warrant Agent may elect to record. All such information shall be kept in one set of accounts and records which the Warrant Agent shall designate (in such manner as shall permit it to be so identified as such by an unaffiliated party) as the register of the holders of Warrants.  The information to be entered for each account in the register of Warrants at any time shall include (without limitation):

    
        13

    

    

    (a) the name and address of the Registered Warrantholder, the date of Authentication thereof and the number of Warrants;

    (b) whether such Warrant is a Warrant Certificate or an Uncertificated Warrant and, if a Warrant Certificate, the unique number or code assigned to and imprinted thereupon and, if an Uncertificated Warrant, the unique number or code assigned thereto if any;

    (c) whether such Warrant has been cancelled; and

    (d) a register of transfers in which all transfers of Warrants and the date and other particulars of each transfer shall be entered.

    The register shall be available for inspection by the Corporation and any Warrantholder during the Warrant Agent's regular business hours on a Business Day and upon payment to the Warrant Agent of its reasonable fees.  Any Warrantholder exercising such right of inspection shall first provide an affidavit in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Warrant Agent stating the name and address of the Warrantholder and agreeing not to use the information therein except in connection with an effort to call a meeting of Warrantholders or to influence the voting of Warrantholders at any meeting of Warrantholders.

    (2) Once an Uncertificated Warrant has been Authenticated, the information set forth in the register with respect thereto at the time of Authentication may be altered, modified, amended, supplemented or otherwise changed only to reflect exercise or proper instructions to the Warrant Agent from the holder as provided herein, except that the Warrant Agent may act unilaterally to make purely administrative changes internal to the Warrant Agent and changes to correct errors. Each person who becomes a holder of an Uncertificated Warrant, by his, her or its acquisition thereof shall be deemed to have irrevocably (i) consented to the foregoing authority of the Warrant Agent to make such minor error corrections and (ii) agreed to pay to the Warrant Agent, promptly upon written demand, the full amount of all loss and expense (including without limitation reasonable legal fees of the Corporation  and the Warrant Agent  plus interest, at an appropriate then prevailing rate of interest to the Warrant Agent) sustained by the Corporation or the Warrant Agent as a proximate result of such error if but only if and only to the extent that such present or former holder realized any benefit as a result of such error and could reasonably have prevented, forestalled or minimized such loss and expense by prompt reporting of the error or avoidance of accepting benefits thereof whether or not such error is or should have been timely detected and corrected by the Warrant Agent; provided, that no person who is a bona fide purchaser shall have any such obligation to the Corporation or to the Warrant Agent.

    Section 2.10 Issue in Substitution for Warrant Certificates Lost, etc.

    (1) If any Warrant Certificate becomes mutilated or is lost, destroyed or stolen, the Corporation, subject to applicable law, and subsection Section 2.10(2) shall issue and thereupon the Warrant Agent shall certify and deliver, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor, and bearing the same legend, if applicable, as the one mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen in exchange for and in place of and upon cancellation of such mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and in substitution for such lost, destroyed or stolen Warrant Certificate, and the substituted Warrant Certificate shall be in a form approved by the Warrant Agent and the Warrants evidenced thereby shall be entitled to the benefits hereof and shall rank equally in accordance with its terms with all other Warrants issued or to be issued hereunder.

    
        14

    

    

    (2) The applicant for the issue of a new Warrant Certificate pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall bear the cost of the issue thereof and in case of loss, destruction or theft shall, as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, furnish to the Corporation and to the Warrant Agent such evidence of ownership and of the loss, destruction or theft of the Warrant Certificate so lost, destroyed or stolen as shall be satisfactory to the Corporation and to the Warrant Agent, in their sole discretion, acting reasonably, and such applicant shall also be required to furnish an indemnity and surety bond in amount and form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Warrant Agent, in their sole discretion, and shall pay the reasonable charges of the Corporation and the Warrant Agent in connection therewith.

    Section 2.11 Exchange of Warrant Certificates.

    (1) Any one or more Warrant Certificates representing any number of Warrants may, upon compliance with the reasonable requirements of the Warrant Agent (including compliance with applicable securities legislation), be exchanged for one or more other Warrant Certificates representing the same aggregate number of Warrants, and bearing the same legend, if applicable, as represented by the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates so exchanged.

    (2) Warrant Certificates may be exchanged only at the Warrant Agency or at any other place that is designated by the Corporation with the approval of the Warrant Agent. Any Warrant Certificate from the holder (or such other instructions, in form satisfactory to the Warrant Agent), tendered for exchange shall be surrendered to the Warrant Agency and cancelled by the Warrant Agent.

    (3) Warrant Certificates exchanged for Warrant Certificates that bear a legend set forth in Section 2.8 shall bear the same legend, unless the Warrant Agent is otherwise instructed by counsel to the Corporation or the Corporation.

    Section 2.12 Transfer and Ownership of Warrants.

    (1) The Warrants may only be transferred on the register kept by the Warrant Agent at the Warrant Agency by the holder or its legal representatives or its attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and execution satisfactory to the Warrant Agent only upon (a) in the case of a Warrant Certificate, surrendering to the Warrant Agent at the Warrant Agency the Warrant Certificates representing the Warrants to be transferred together with a duly executed transfer form as set forth in Schedule "A" attached hereto (together with a declaration for removal of legend or opinion of counsel, if required by Section 2.8(1)), and (b) in the case of Book Entry Warrants, in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Depository under the book entry registration system, and (c) upon compliance with:

    (i) the conditions herein;

    (ii) such reasonable requirements as the Warrant Agent may prescribe; and

    (iii) all applicable securities legislation and requirements of regulatory authorities;

    
        15

    

    

    and such transfer shall be duly noted in such register by the Warrant Agent. Upon compliance with such requirements, the Warrant Agent shall issue a Warrant Certificate to the transferee of a Warrant Certificate and shall issue an Uncertificated Warrant to the transferee of an Uncertificated Warrant, or the Warrant Agent shall Authenticate and deliver a Warrant Certificate upon request that part of the CDS Global Warrant be certificated. Transfers within the systems of the Depository are not the responsibility of the Warrant Agent and will not be noted on the register maintained by the Warrant Agent.

    (2) If a Warrant Certificate tendered for transfer bears the legend set forth in Section 2.8(1), the Warrant Agent shall not register such transfer unless the transferor has provided the Warrant Agent with the Warrant Certificate and such securities may be transferred only as set forth in such Section 2.8(1).

    (3) Subject to the provisions of this Indenture and applicable law, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to the rights and privileges attaching to the Warrants, and the issue of Warrant Shares by the Corporation upon the exercise of Warrants in accordance with the terms and conditions herein contained shall discharge all responsibilities of the Corporation and the Warrant Agent with respect to such Warrants and neither the Corporation nor the Warrant Agent shall be bound to inquire into the title of any such holder.

    (4) The Corporation will be entitled, and may direct the Warrant Agent, to refuse to recognize any transfer, or enter the name of any transferee, of any Warrant on the register kept by the Warrant Agent, if such transfer would constitute a violation of applicable securities laws or the rules, regulations or policies of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction.

    (5) Any Warrant Certificate issued to a transferee upon transfers contemplated by this Section 2.12 shall bear the appropriate legends, as required by applicable securities laws, as set forth in Section 2.8.

    Section 2.13 Cancellation of Surrendered Warrants.

    All Warrant Certificates surrendered pursuant to Section 2.11(2), Section 2.12(1) or Section 3.2(1) shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent and upon such circumstances all such Uncertificated Warrants shall be deemed cancelled and so noted on the register by the Warrant Agent. Upon request by the Corporation, the Warrant Agent shall furnish to the Corporation a cancellation certificate identifying the Warrant Certificates so cancelled, the number of Warrants evidenced thereby, the number of Warrant Shares, if any, issued pursuant to such Warrants and the details of any Warrant Certificates issued in substitution or exchange for such Warrant Certificates cancelled.

    ARTICLE 3

    EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

    Section 3.1 Right of Exercise.

    Subject to the provisions of this Indenture, each Registered Warrantholder may exercise the right conferred on such holder to subscribe for and purchase one Warrant Share for each Warrant after the Issue Date and prior to the Expiry Time and in accordance with the conditions herein; provided, however, that if a Warrant Certificate tendered for exercise bears the legend set forth in Section 2.8(1), such exercise must be permitted under applicable U.S. securities laws.

    
        16

    

    

    Section 3.2 Warrant Exercise.

    (1) Other than Warrants held by the Depository, Registered Warrantholders of Warrant Certificates who wish to exercise the Warrants held by them in order to acquire Warrant Shares must, if permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions hereunder and as set forth in any applicable legend, complete the exercise form (the "Exercise Notice") attached to the Warrant Certificate(s), which may be amended by the Corporation with the consent of the Warrant Agent, if such amendment does not, in the reasonable opinion of the Corporation and the Warrant Agent, which may be based on the advice of Counsel, materially and adversely affect the rights, entitlements and interests of the Warrantholders, and deliver such certificate(s), the executed Exercise Notice and a certified cheque, bank draft or money order payable to or to the order of the Corporation for the aggregate Exercise Price to the Warrant Agent at the Warrant Agency. The Warrants represented by a Warrant Certificate shall be deemed to be surrendered upon personal delivery of such certificate, Exercise Notice and aggregate Exercise Price or, if such documents are sent by mail or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by the Warrant Agent at the office referred to above. If the Warrants are exercised pursuant to Box (B) or (C) of the Exercise Notice, the Warrant Agent will promptly forward the Exercise Notice and related materials to the Corporation together with the request for the Corporation to confirm (a) whether the exercise is approved, and (b) whether a U.S. Securities Act legend should be imposed on the Warrant Shares. The Warrant Agent agrees not to issue any Warrant Shares upon exercise pursuant to Box (B) or (C) of the Exercise Notice without the approval of the Corporation.

    (2) A Registered Warrantholder of Uncertificated Warrants evidenced by a security entitlement in respect of Warrants must complete the Exercise Notice and deliver the executed Exercise Notice and a certified cheque, bank draft or money order payable to or to the order of the Corporation for the aggregate Exercise Price to the Warrant Agent at the Warrant Agency. The Uncertificated Warrants shall be deemed to be surrendered upon receipt of the Exercise Notice and aggregate Exercise Price or, if such documents are sent by mail or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by the Warrant Agent at the office referred to above.

    (3) A beneficial owner of Uncertificated Warrants by a security entitlement in respect of Warrants in the book entry registration system and who desires to exercise his or her Warrants must do so by causing a Book Entry Participant to deliver to the Depository on behalf of the entitlement holder, notice of the owner's intention to exercise Warrants in a manner acceptable to the Depository. Forthwith upon receipt by the Depository of such notice, as well as payment for the aggregate Exercise Price, the Depository shall deliver to the Warrant Agent confirmation of its intention to exercise Warrants (a "Confirmation") in a manner acceptable to the Warrant Agent, including by electronic means through a book based registration system, including CDSX.  Unless the Warrants are being exercised by a Qualified Institutional Buyer that purchased the Warrants directly from the Corporation and delivered a Qualified Institutional Buyer Certificate to the Corporation in connection with such purchase, and at the time of exercise of the Warrants the representations, warranties and covenants set forth therein remain true and correct, an electronic exercise of the Warrants initiated by the Book Entry Participant through a book based registration system, including CDSX, shall constitute a representation to both the Corporation and the Warrant Agent that the beneficial owner at the time of exercise of such Warrants (a) is not in the United States; (b) is not a U.S. Person and is not exercising such Warrants on behalf of a U.S. Person or a person in the United States; and (c) did not execute or deliver the notice of the owner's intention to exercise such Warrants in the United States.  If the CDS Participant is not able to make or deliver the foregoing representations by initiating the electronic exercise of the Warrants, then such Warrants shall be withdrawn from the book based registration system, including CDSX by the CDS Participant and an individually registered Warrant Certificate shall be issued by the Warrant Agent to such Beneficial Owner or CDS Participant and the exercise procedures set forth in Section 3.2(1) shall be followed.

    
        17

    

    

    (4) Payment representing the aggregate Exercise Price must be provided to the appropriate office of the Book Entry Participant in a manner acceptable to it. A notice in form acceptable to the Book Entry Participant and payment from such beneficial holder should be provided to the Book Entry Participant sufficiently in advance so as to permit the Book Entry Participant to deliver notice and payment to the Depository and for the Depository in turn to deliver notice and payment to the Warrant Agent prior to the Expiry Time. The Depository will initiate the exercise by way of the Confirmation and forward the aggregate Exercise Price electronically to the Warrant Agent and the Warrant Agent will execute the exercise by issuing to the Depository through the book entry registration system the Warrant Shares to which the exercising Warrantholder is entitled pursuant to the exercise. Any expense associated with the exercise process will be for the account of the entitlement holder exercising the Warrants and/or the Book Entry Participant exercising the Warrants on its behalf.

    (5) By causing a Book Entry Participant to deliver notice to the Depository, a Warrantholder shall be deemed to have irrevocably surrendered his or her Warrants so exercised and appointed such Book Entry Participant to act as his or her exclusive settlement agent with respect to the exercise and the receipt of Warrant Shares in connection with the obligations arising from such exercise.

    (6) Any notice which the Depository determines to be incomplete, not in proper form or not duly executed shall for all purposes be void and of no force and effect and the exercise to which it relates shall be considered for all purposes not to have been exercised thereby. A failure by a Book Entry Participant to exercise or to give effect to the settlement thereof in accordance with the Warrantholder's instructions will not give rise to any obligations or liability on the part of the Corporation or Warrant Agent to the Book Entry Participant or the Warrantholder.

    (7) The Exercise Notice referred to in this Section 3.2 shall be signed by the Registered Warrantholder, or its executors or administrators or other legal representatives or an attorney of the Registered Warrantholder, duly appointed by an instrument in writing satisfactory to the Warrant Agent but such Exercise Notice need not be executed by the Depository.

    (8) Any exercise referred to in this Section 3.2 shall require that the entire Exercise Price for Warrant Shares subscribed must be paid at the time of subscription and such Exercise Price and original Exercise Notice executed by the Registered Warrantholder or the Confirmation from the Depository must be received by the Warrant Agent prior to the Expiry Time.

    (9) Warrants may only be exercised pursuant to this Section 3.2 by or on behalf of a Registered Warrantholder, as applicable, who makes the certifications set forth on the Exercise Notice set out in the Warrant Certificate and delivers, if applicable, any opinion or other evidence as required by the Corporation.

    (10) If the form of Exercise Notice set forth in the Warrant Certificate shall have been amended, the Corporation shall cause the amended Exercise Notice to be forwarded to all Registered Warrantholders.

    (11) Exercise Notices and Confirmations must be delivered to the Warrant Agent at any time during the Warrant Agent's actual business hours on any Business Day prior to the Expiry Time. Any Exercise Notice or Confirmations received by the Warrant Agent after business hours on any Business Day other than the Expiry Date will be deemed to have been received by the Warrant Agent on the next following Business Day.

    
        18

    

    

    (12) Any Warrant with respect to which a Confirmation or Exercise Notice is not received by the Warrant Agent before the Expiry Time shall be deemed to have expired and become void and all rights with respect to such Warrants shall terminate and be cancelled.

    Section 3.3 Prohibition on Exercise by U.S. Persons; Legended Certificates

    (1) The Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the state securities laws of any state of the United States. Warrants may not be exercised within the United States or by or on behalf of, or for the account or benefit of, any U.S. Person or person in the United States except in compliance with available exemptions from such registration requirements.

    (2) Notwithstanding Section 3.3(1), Warrants may be exercised in the United States or by or on behalf of, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. Person or person in the United States, provided that (i) the Warrants are exercised in accordance with box (B) or (C) of the Exercise Notice and the Corporation has approved the issuance of the Warrant Shares, or (ii) the Warrants are exercised by a Qualified Institutional Buyer that purchased the Warrants directly from the Corporation and delivered a Qualified Institutional Buyer Certificate to the Corporation in connection with such purchase, and at the time of exercise of the Warrants the representations, warranties and covenants set forth therein remain true and correct.

    (3) Certificates representing Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of Warrants pursuant to box (B) or (C) of the Exercise Notice will, if and to the extent the Corporation directs, bear a U.S. Securities Act legend in Section 2.8(1) or in the form provided by the Corporation in such direction.

    Section 3.4 Transfer Fees and Taxes.

    If any of the Warrant Shares subscribed for are to be issued to a person or persons other than the Registered Warrantholder, the Registered Warrantholder shall execute the form of transfer and will comply with such reasonable requirements as the Warrant Agent may stipulate and will pay to the Corporation or the Warrant Agent on behalf of the Corporation, all applicable transfer or similar taxes and the Corporation will not be required to issue or deliver certificates evidencing Warrant Shares unless or until such Warrantholder shall have paid to the Corporation or the Warrant Agent on behalf of the Corporation, the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation and the Warrant Agent that such tax has been paid or that no tax is due.

    Section 3.5 Warrant Agency.

    To facilitate the exchange, transfer or exercise of Warrants and compliance with such other terms and conditions hereof as may be required, the Corporation has appointed the Warrant Agency, as the agency at which Warrants may be surrendered for exchange or transfer or at which Warrants may be exercised and the Warrant Agent has accepted such appointment. The Corporation may from time to time designate alternate or additional places as the Warrant Agency (subject to the Warrant Agent's prior approval) and will give notice to the Warrant Agent of any proposed change of the Warrant Agency.  Branch registers shall also be kept at such other place or places, if any, as the Corporation, with the approval of the Warrant Agent, may designate. The Warrant Agent will from time to time when requested to do so by the Corporation or any Registered Warrantholder, upon payment of the Warrant Agent's reasonable charges, furnish a list of the names and addresses of Registered Warrantholders showing the number of Warrants held by each such Registered Warrantholder.

    Section 3.6 Effect of Exercise of Warrant Certificates.

    (1) Upon the exercise of Warrants Certificates pursuant to and in compliance with Section 3.2 and subject to Section 3.3 and Section 3.4, the Warrant Shares to be issued pursuant to the Warrants exercised shall be deemed to have been issued and the person or persons to whom such Warrant Shares are to be issued shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of such Warrant Shares within five Business Days of the Exercise Date, unless the register shall be closed on such date, in which case the Warrant Shares subscribed for shall be deemed to have been issued and such person or persons deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of such Warrant Shares, on the date on which such register is reopened. It is hereby understood that in order for persons to whom Warrant Shares are to be issued, to become holders of Warrant Shares on record on the Exercise Date, beneficial holders must commence the exercise process sufficiently in advance so that the Warrant Agent is in receipt of all items of exercise at least one Business Day prior to such Exercise Date.

    (2) Within five Business Days after the Exercise Date with respect to a Warrant, the Warrant Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be delivered or mailed to the person or persons in whose name or names the Warrant is registered or, if so specified in writing by the holder, cause to be delivered to such person or persons at the Warrant Agency where the Warrant Certificate was surrendered, a certificate or certificates for the appropriate number of Warrant Shares subscribed for, or any other appropriate evidence of the issuance of Warrant Shares to such person or persons in respect of Warrant Shares issued under the book entry registration system.

    Section 3.7 Partial Exercise of Warrants; Fractions.

    (1) The holder of any Warrants may exercise his right to acquire a number of whole Warrant Shares less than the aggregate number which the holder is entitled to acquire. In the event of any exercise of a number of Warrants less than the number which the holder is entitled to exercise, the holder of Warrants upon such exercise shall, in addition, be entitled to receive, without charge therefor, a new Warrant Certificate(s), bearing the same legend, if applicable, or other appropriate evidence of Warrants, in respect of the balance of the Warrants held by such holder and which were not then exercised.

    (2) Notwithstanding anything herein contained including any adjustment provided for in Section 4.1, the Corporation shall not be required, upon the exercise of any Warrants, to issue fractions of Warrant Shares. Warrants may only be exercised in a sufficient number to acquire whole numbers of Warrant Shares. Any fractional Warrant Shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and the holder of such Warrants shall not be entitled to any compensation in respect of any fractional Warrant Shares which is not issued.

    Section 3.8 Expiration of Warrants.

    Immediately after the Expiry Time, all rights under any Warrant in respect of which the right of acquisition provided for herein shall not have been exercised shall cease and terminate and each Warrant shall be void and of no further force or effect.

    
        20

    

    

    Section 3.9 Accounting and Recording.

    (1) The Warrant Agent shall promptly account to the Corporation with respect to Warrants exercised, and shall promptly forward to the Corporation (or into an account or accounts of the Corporation with the bank or trust company designated by the Corporation for that purpose), all monies received by the Warrant Agent on the subscription of Warrant Shares through the exercise of Warrants. All such monies and any securities or other instruments, from time to time received by the Warrant Agent shall be received in trust for, and shall be segregated and kept apart by the Warrant Agent, the Warrantholders and the Corporation as their interests may appear.

    (2) The Warrant Agent shall record the particulars of Warrants exercised, which particulars shall include the names and addresses of the persons who become holders of Warrant Shares on exercise and the Exercise Date, in respect thereof. The Warrant Agent shall provide such particulars in writing to the Corporation within five Business Days of any request by the Corporation therefor.

    Section 3.10 Securities Restrictions.

    Notwithstanding anything herein contained, Warrant Shares will be issued upon exercise of a Warrant only in compliance with the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

    ARTICLE 4

    ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE

    Section 4.1 Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares and Exercise Price.

    The subscription rights in effect under the Warrants for Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

    (a) if, at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Corporation shall:

    (i) subdivide, re-divide or change its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares;

    (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares; or

    (iii) issue Common Shares or securities exchangeable for, or convertible into, Common Shares to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares by way of stock dividend or other distribution (other than a distribution of Common Shares upon the exercise of Warrants or any outstanding options);

    (any of such events in Section 4.1(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) being called a "Common Share Reorganization") then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as of the effective date or record date of such subdivision, re-division, change, reduction, combination, consolidation or distribution, as the case may be, shall in the case of the events referred to in (i) or (iii) above be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, re-division, change or distribution, or shall, in the case of the events referred to in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination or consolidation by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization and the denominator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding as of the effective date or record date after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Share that would have been outstanding had such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such record date or effective date). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 4.1(a) shall occur. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 4.1(a), the Exchange Rate shall be contemporaneously adjusted by multiplying the number of Common Shares theretofore obtainable on the exercise thereof by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator shall be the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment;

    
        21

    

    

    (b) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Corporation 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 or exchangeable into Common Shares) at a price per Common Share (or having a conversion or exchange price per Common Share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price on such record date (a "Rights Offering"), the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the amount determined by multiplying the Exercise 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 or exchange price of the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered) by the Current Market Price, 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 or exchangeable securities so offered are convertible or exchangeable; any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation 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 no such rights or warrants are exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or, if any such rights or warrants are exercised, to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights or warrants, as the case may be. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 4.1(b), the Exchange Rate will be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it will equal the rate determined by multiplying the Exchange Rate in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator shall be the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment. Such adjustment will be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, provided that if two or more such record dates or record dates referred to in this Section 4.1(b) are fixed within a period of 25 Trading Days, such adjustment will be made successively as if each of such record dates occurred on the earliest of such record dates. The Corporation will use reasonable commercial efforts to give written notice to the Exchange, by letter or email, and to market participants by press release, of a record date fixed pursuant to this  Section 4.1(b) not less than 14 days prior to such record date;

    
        22

    

    

    (c) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period the Corporation shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of (i) securities of any class, whether of the Corporation or any other entity (other than Common Shares), (ii) rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares), other than pursuant to a Rights Offering; (iii) evidences of its indebtedness or (iv) any property or other assets (including a cash dividend) then, in each such case, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise 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 on such record date, less the excess, if any, of the fair market value on such record date, as determined by the Corporation (whose determination shall be conclusive), of such securities or other assets so issued or distributed over the fair market value of any consideration received therefor by the Corporation from the holders of the Common Shares, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price; and Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation 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 Exercise Price shall be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 4.1(c), the Exchange Rate will be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it will equal the rate determined by multiplying the Exchange Rate in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator shall be the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment;

    (d) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 4.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, any Registered Warrantholder who has not exercised its right of acquisition prior to the effective date of such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive upon payment of the Exercise Price and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Warrant Shares that prior to such effective date the Registered Warrantholder would have been entitled to receive, the number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that such Registered Warrantholder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Registered Warrantholder had been the registered holder of the number of Warrant Shares to which prior to such effective date it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the Warrants. If determined appropriate by the Warrant Agent, relying on advice of Counsel, to give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this Section 4.1(d), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, sale or conveyance, enter into an indenture which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Indenture with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Registered Warrantholders to the end that the provisions set forth in this Indenture shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which a Registered Warrantholder is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.1(d) shall be a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 8 hereof. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity and the Warrant Agent shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section 4.1(d) and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, amalgamations, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances; 

    
        23

    

    

    (e) in any case in which this Section 4.1 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Registered Warrantholder of any Warrant exercised after the record date and prior to completion of such event the additional Warrant Shares issuable by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Registered Warrantholder an appropriate instrument evidencing such Registered Warrantholder's right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the relevant date of exercise or such later date as such Registered Warrantholder would, but for the provisions of this Section 4.1(e), have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares pursuant to Section 4.1;

    (f) in any case in which Section 4.1(a)(iii), Section 4.1(b) or Section 4.1(c) require that an adjustment be made to the Exercise Price, no such adjustment shall be made if the Registered Warrantholders of the outstanding Warrants receive, subject to any required stock exchange or regulatory approval, the rights or warrants referred to in Section 4.1(a)(iii), Section 4.1(b) or the shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets referred to in Section 4.1(c), as the case may be, in such kind and number as they would have received if they had been holders of Common Shares on the applicable record date or effective date, as the case may be, by virtue of their outstanding Warrant having then been exercised into Common Shares at the Exercise Price in effect on the applicable record date or effective date, as the case may be;

    (g) the adjustments provided for in this Section 4.1 are cumulative, and shall, in the case of adjustments to the Exercise Price be computed to the nearest whole cent and shall apply to successive subdivisions, re-divisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section 4.1, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Exercise Price then in effect; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 4.1(g) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment;

    
        24

    

    

    (h) after any adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.1, the term "Common Shares" where used in this Indenture shall be interpreted to mean securities of any class or classes which, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 4.1, the Registered Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon the exercise of his Warrant, and the number of Warrant Shares indicated by any exercise made pursuant to a Warrant shall be interpreted to mean the number of Warrant Shares or other property or securities a Registered Warrantholder is entitled to receive, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 4.1, upon the full exercise of a Warrant;

    (i) the purpose and intent of the adjustments provided for in this Section 4.1 is to ensure that the rights and obligations of the Registered Warrantholder are neither diminished nor enhanced as a result of any of the events set forth in Section 4.1 (a), (b), (c) and (d). Accordingly, the provisions of this Section 4.1 will be interpreted and applied in accordance with such purpose and intent;

    (j) if the Corporation sets a record date to take any action and thereafter and before taking such action abandons its plan to take such action, then no adjustment to the Exercise Price will be required by reason of setting such record date; and

    (k) upon the occurrence of each and every event set out in this Section 4.1, the provisions of this Warrant Indenture, including the Exercise Price, will ipso facto be deemed to be amended accordingly and the Corporation shall take all necessary action to comply with such provisions as so amended.

    Section 4.2 Entitlement to Warrant Shares on Exercise of Warrant.

    All Common Shares or shares of any class or other securities, which a Registered Warrantholder is at the time in question entitled to receive on the exercise of its Warrant, whether or not as a result of adjustments made pursuant to this Article 4, shall, for the purposes of the interpretation of this Indenture, be deemed to be Warrant Shares which such Registered Warrantholder is entitled to acquire pursuant to such Warrant.

    Section 4.3 No Adjustment for Certain Transactions.

    Notwithstanding anything in this Article 4, no adjustment shall be made in the acquisition rights attached to the Warrants if the issue of Common Shares is being made pursuant to this Indenture or in connection with (a) any share incentive plan or restricted share plan or share purchase plan in force from time to time for directors, officers, employees, consultants or other service providers of the Corporation; or (b) the satisfaction of existing instruments issued at the date hereof; or (c) the issuance of Common Shares pursuant to a financing transaction or acquisition transaction in a manner other than as specified in Section 4.1.

    
        25

    

    

    Section 4.4 Determination by Independent Firm.

    In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided for in this Article 4 such question shall be conclusively determined by an independent firm of chartered professional accountants other than the Auditor, who shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation, and such determination shall be binding upon the Corporation, the Warrant Agent, all holders and all other persons interested therein.

    Section 4.5 Proceedings Prior to any Action Requiring Adjustment.

    As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment in any of the acquisition rights pursuant to any of the Warrants, including the number of Warrant Shares which are to be received upon the exercise thereof, the Corporation shall take any action which may, in the opinion of Counsel, be necessary in order that the Corporation has unissued and reserved in its authorized capital and may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all the Warrant Shares which the holders of such Warrants are entitled to receive on the full exercise thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof.

    Section 4.6 Certificate of Adjustment.

    The Corporation shall from time to time immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 4.1, deliver a certificate of the Corporation to the Warrant Agent specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment or readjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based, which certificate shall be supported by a certificate of the Auditor verifying such calculation. The Warrant Agent shall rely, and shall be protected in so doing, upon the certificate of the Corporation or of the Auditor and any other document filed by the Corporation pursuant to this Article 4 for all purposes.

    Section 4.7 Notice of Special Matters.

    The Corporation covenants with the Warrant Agent that, so long as any Warrant remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Warrant Agent and to the Registered Warrantholders of its intention to fix a record date that is prior to the Expiry Date for any matter for which an adjustment may be required pursuant to Section 4.1. Such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date for such event, provided that the Corporation shall only be required to specify in the notice such particulars of the event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which the notice is given. The notice shall be given in each case not less than 14 days prior to such applicable record date. If notice has been given and the adjustment is not then determinable, the Corporation shall promptly, after the adjustment is determinable, file with the Warrant Agent a computation of the adjustment and give notice to the Registered Warrantholders of such adjustment computation.

    Section 4.8 No Action after Notice.

    The Corporation covenants with the Warrant Agent that it will not close its transfer books or take any other corporate action which might deprive the Registered Warrantholder of the opportunity to exercise its right of acquisition pursuant thereto during the period of 14 days after the giving of the certificate or notices set forth in Section 4.6 and Section 4.7.

    
        26

    

    

    Section 4.9 Other Action.

    If the Corporation, after the date hereof, shall take any action affecting the Common Shares other than action described in Section 4.1, which in the reasonable opinion of the directors of the Corporation would materially affect the rights of Registered Warrantholders, the Exercise Price and/or Exchange Rate, the number of Warrant Shares which may be acquired upon exercise of the Warrants shall be adjusted in such manner and at such time, by action of the directors, acting reasonably and in good faith, in their sole discretion as they may determine to be equitable to the Registered Warrantholders in the circumstances, provided that no such adjustment will be made unless any requisite prior approval of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed for trading has been obtained.

    Section 4.10 Protection of Warrant Agent.

    The Warrant Agent shall not:

    (a) at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Registered Warrantholder to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment contemplated by Section 4.1, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same;

    (b) be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Warrant Shares or of any other securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of the rights attaching to any Warrant;

    (c) be responsible for any failure of the Corporation to issue, transfer or deliver Warrant Shares or certificates for the same upon the surrender of any Warrants for the purpose of the exercise of such rights or to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Article; and

    (d) incur any liability or be in any way responsible for the consequences of any breach on the part of the Corporation of any of the representations, warranties or covenants herein contained or of any acts of the directors, officers, employees, agents or servants of the Corporation.

    Section 4.11 Participation by Warrantholder.

    No adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Article 4 if the Registered Warrantholders are entitled to participate in any event described in this Article 4 on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Registered Warrantholders had exercised their Warrants prior to, or on the effective date or record date of, such event and any such participation will be subject to the prior approval of the Exchange.

    ARTICLE 5

    RIGHTS OF THE CORPORATION AND COVENANTS

    Section 5.1 Optional Purchases by the Corporation.

    Subject to compliance with applicable securities legislation and approval of applicable regulatory authorities, if any, the Corporation may from time to time purchase by private contract or otherwise any of the Warrants. Any such purchase shall be made at the lowest price or prices at which, in the opinion of the directors of the Corporation, such Warrants are then obtainable, plus reasonable costs of purchase, and may be made in such manner, from such persons and on such other terms as the Corporation, in its sole discretion, may determine. In the case of Warrant Certificates, Warrant Certificates representing the Warrants purchased pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall forthwith be delivered to and cancelled by the Warrant Agent and reflected accordingly on the register of Warrants. In the case of Uncertificated Warrants, the Warrants purchased pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be reflected accordingly on the register of Warrants and in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Depository under the book entry registration system. No Warrants shall be issued in replacement thereof.

    
        27

    

    

    Section 5.2 General Covenants.

    The Corporation covenants with the Warrant Agent that so long as any Warrants remain outstanding:

    (a) it will reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Common Shares for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy its obligations to issue Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants;

    (b) it will cause the Warrant Shares from time to time acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants to be duly issued and delivered in accordance with the Warrants and the terms hereof;

    (c) all Warrant Shares which shall be issued upon exercise of the right to acquire provided for herein shall be fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all encumbrances;

    (d) it will use reasonable commercial efforts to maintain its existence and carry on its business in the ordinary course,

    (e) it will use reasonable commercial efforts to ensure that all Common Shares outstanding or issuable from time to time (including without limitation the Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants) continue to be or are listed and posted for trading on the Exchange (or such other Canadian stock exchange acceptable to the Corporation), provided that this clause shall not be construed as limiting or restricting the Corporation from completing a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, takeover bid or merger that would result in the Corporation ceasing to maintain its existence or carry on business in the ordinary course;

    (f) it will make all requisite filings under applicable Canadian securities legislation including those necessary to remain a reporting issuer not in default in each of the provinces and other Canadian jurisdictions where it is or becomes a reporting issuer;

    (g) generally, it will well and truly perform and carry out all of the acts or things to be done by it as provided in this Indenture; and

    (h) the Corporation will promptly notify the Warrant Agent and the Warrantholders in writing of any default under the terms of this Warrant Indenture which remains unrectified for more than five days following its occurrence.

    
        28

    

    

    Section 5.3 Warrant Agent's Remuneration and Expenses.

    The Corporation covenants that it will pay to the Warrant Agent from time to time reasonable remuneration for its services hereunder and will pay or reimburse the Warrant Agent upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Warrant Agent in the administration or execution of its duties hereby created (including the reasonable compensation and the disbursements of its Counsel and all other advisers and assistants not regularly in its employ) both before any default hereunder and thereafter until all duties of the Warrant Agent hereunder shall be finally and fully performed.  Any amount owing hereunder and remaining unpaid after 30 days from the invoice date will bear interest at the then current rate charged by the Warrant Agent against unpaid invoices and shall be payable upon demand. This Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Warrant Agent and/or the termination of this Indenture. 

    Section 5.4 Performance of Covenants by Warrant Agent.

    If the Corporation shall fail to perform any of its covenants contained in this Indenture, the Warrant Agent may notify the Registered Warrantholders of such failure on the part of the Corporation and may itself perform any of the covenants capable of being performed by it but, subject to Section 9.2, shall be under no obligation to perform said covenants or to notify the Registered Warrantholders of such performance by it. All sums expended or advanced by the Warrant Agent in so doing shall be repayable as provided in Section 5.3. No such performance, expenditure or advance by the Warrant Agent shall relieve the Corporation of any default hereunder or of its continuing obligations under the covenants herein contained.

    Section 5.5 Enforceability of Warrants.

    The Corporation covenants and agrees that it is duly authorized to create and issue the Warrants to be issued hereunder and that the Warrants, when issued and Authenticated as herein provided, will be valid and enforceable against the Corporation in accordance with the provisions hereof and the terms hereof and that, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the Corporation will cause the Warrant Shares from time to time acquired upon exercise of Warrants issued under this Indenture to be duly issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

    ARTICLE 6

    Section 6.1 Suits by Registered Warrantholders.

    All or any of the rights conferred upon any Registered Warrantholder by any of the terms of this Indenture may be enforced by the Registered Warrantholder by appropriate proceedings but without prejudice to the right which is hereby conferred upon the Warrant Agent to proceed in its own name to enforce each and all of the provisions herein contained for the benefit of the Registered Warrantholders.

    Section 6.2 Suits by the Corporation.

    The Corporation shall have the right to enforce full payment of the Exercise Price of all Warrant Shares issued by the Warrant Agent to a Registered Warrantholder hereunder and shall be entitled to demand such payment from the Registered Warrantholder or alternatively to instruct the Warrant Agent to cancel the share certificates representing such Warrant Shares and amend the securities register of the Corporation accordingly.

    Section 6.3 Immunity of Shareholders, etc.

    The Warrant Agent and the Warrantholders hereby waive and release any right, cause of action or remedy now or hereafter existing in any jurisdiction against any incorporator or any past, present or future shareholder, trustee, employee or agent of the Corporation or any successor entity on any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty by the Corporation herein. The obligations hereunder are not personally binding upon, nor shall resort hereunder be had to, the private property of any of the past, present or future Directors or Shareholders of the Corporation or any of the past, present or future officers, employees or agents of the Corporation, but only the property of the Corporation (or any successor person) shall be bound in respect hereof.

    Section 6.4 Waiver of Default.

    Upon the happening of any default hereunder:

    (a) the Registered Warrantholders of not less than 51% of the Warrants then outstanding shall have power (in addition to the powers exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution) by requisition in writing to instruct the Warrant Agent to waive any default hereunder and the Warrant Agent shall thereupon waive the default upon such terms and conditions as shall be prescribed in such requisition; or

    (b) the Warrant Agent shall have power to waive any default hereunder upon such terms and conditions as the Warrant Agent may deem advisable, on the advice of Counsel, if, in the Warrant Agent's opinion, based on the advice of Counsel, the same shall have been cured or adequate provision made therefor;

    provided that no delay or omission of the Warrant Agent or of the Registered Warrantholders to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or acquiescence therein and provided further that no act or omission either of the Warrant Agent or of the Registered Warrantholders in the premises shall extend to or be taken in any manner whatsoever to affect any subsequent default hereunder of the rights resulting therefrom.

    ARTICLE 7

Such notice shall state the time when and the place where the meeting is to be held, shall state briefly the general nature of the business to be transacted thereat and shall contain such information as is reasonably necessary to enable the Registered Warrantholders to make a reasoned decision on the matter, but it shall not be necessary for any such notice to set out the terms of any resolution to be proposed or any of the provisions of this Section 7.2.

    Section 7.3 Chairman.

    An individual (who need not be a Registered Warrantholder) designated in writing by the chair of the Corporation shall be chairman of the meeting and if no individual is so designated, or if the individual so designated is not present within fifteen minutes from the time fixed for the holding of the meeting, the Registered Warrantholders present in person or by proxy shall choose an individual present to be chairman.

    Section 7.4 Quorum.

    Subject to the provisions of Section 7.11, at any meeting of the Registered Warrantholders a quorum shall consist of Registered Warrantholder(s) present in person or by proxy and holding at least 25% of the aggregate number of all the then outstanding Warrants. If a quorum of the Registered Warrantholders shall not be present within thirty minutes from the time fixed for holding any meeting, the meeting, if summoned by Registered Warrantholders or on a Warrantholders' Request, shall be dissolved; but in any other case the meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is not a Business Day, in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following Business Day) at the same time and place and no notice of the adjournment need be given. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at an adjourned meeting which might have been dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same. No business shall be transacted at any meeting unless a quorum be present at the commencement of business. At the adjourned meeting the Registered Warrantholders present in person or by proxy shall form a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened, notwithstanding that they may not be holding at least 25% of the aggregate number of all then outstanding Warrants.

    Section 7.5 Power to Adjourn.

    The chairman of any meeting at which a quorum of the Registered Warrantholders is present may, with the consent of the meeting, adjourn any such meeting, and no notice of such adjournment need be given except such notice, if any, as the meeting may prescribe.

    Section 7.6 Show of Hands.

    Every question submitted to a meeting shall be decided in the first place by a majority of the votes given on a show of hands except that votes on an Extraordinary Resolution shall be given in the manner hereinafter provided. At any such meeting, unless a poll is duly demanded as herein provided, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried unanimously or by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact.

    
        31

    

    

    Section 7.7 Poll and Voting.

    (1) On every Extraordinary Resolution, and on any other question submitted to a meeting and after a vote by show of hands when demanded by the chairman or by one or more of the Registered Warrantholders acting in person or by proxy and holding in the aggregate at least 5% of all the Warrants then outstanding, a poll shall be taken in such manner as the chairman shall direct. Questions other than those required to be determined by Extraordinary Resolution shall be decided by a majority of the votes cast on the poll.

    (2) On a show of hands, every person who is present and entitled to vote, whether as a Registered Warrantholder or as proxy for one or more absent Registered Warrantholders, or both, shall have one vote. On a poll, each Registered Warrantholder present in person or represented by a proxy duly appointed by instrument in writing shall be entitled to one vote in respect of each Warrant then held or represented by it. A proxy need not be a Registered Warrantholder. The chairman of any meeting shall be entitled, both on a show of hands and on a poll, to vote in respect of the Warrants, if any, held or represented by him.

    Section 7.8 Regulations.

    (1) The Warrant Agent, or the Corporation with the approval of the Warrant Agent, may from time to time make and from time to time vary such regulations as it shall think fit for

    (a) the setting of the record date for a meeting for the purpose of determining Registered Warrantholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting;

    (b) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at such place and time as the Warrant Agent, the Corporation or the Registered Warrantholders convening the meeting, as the case may be, may in the notice convening the meeting direct;

    (c) the deposit of instruments appointing proxies at some approved place or place other than the place at which the meeting is to be held and enabling particulars of such instruments appointing proxies to be mailed or telecopied before the meeting to the Corporation or to the Warrant Agent at the place where the same is to be held and for the voting of proxies so deposited as though the instruments themselves were produced at the meeting;

    (d) the form of the instrument of proxy; and

    (e) generally for the calling of meetings of the Registered Warrantholders and the conduct of business thereat.

    (2) Any regulations so made shall be binding and effective and the votes given in accordance therewith shall be valid and shall be counted. Save as such regulations may provide, the only persons who shall be recognized at any meeting as a Registered Warrantholder, or be entitled to vote or be present at the meeting in respect thereof (subject to Section 7.9), shall be Registered Warrantholders or proxies of Registered Warrantholders.

    (b) to amend, alter or repeal any Extraordinary Resolution previously passed or sanctioned by the Registered Warrantholders;

    (e) to restrain any Registered Warrantholder from taking or instituting any suit, action or proceeding against the Corporation for the enforcement of any of the covenants on the part of the Corporation in this Indenture or to enforce any of the rights of the Registered Warrantholders;

    (f) to direct any Registered Warrantholder who, as such, has brought any suit, action or proceeding to stay or to discontinue or otherwise to deal with the same upon payment of the costs, charges and expenses reasonably and properly incurred by such Registered Warrantholder in connection therewith;

    Section 7.11 Meaning of Extraordinary Resolution.

    (1) The expression "Extraordinary Resolution" when used in this Indenture means, subject as hereinafter provided in this Section 7.11 and in Section 7.14, a resolution (i) proposed at a meeting of Registered Warrantholders duly convened for that purpose and held in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7 at which there are present in person or by proxy Registered Warrantholders holding at least 10% of the aggregate number of all the then outstanding Warrants and passed by the affirmative votes of Registered Warrantholders holding not less than 66 2/3% of the Warrants present in person or by proxy at the meeting and voted on a poll upon such resolution; or (ii) in writing signed by holders of at least 66 2/3% of the then outstanding Warrants on any matter that would otherwise be voted upon at a meeting called to approve such resolution as contemplated in Section 7.11(1)(i).

    (2) If, at the meeting at which an Extraordinary Resolution is to be considered, Registered Warrantholders holding at least 10% of the aggregate number of all the then outstanding Warrants are not present in person or by proxy within 30 minutes after the time appointed for the meeting, then the meeting, if convened by Registered Warrantholders or on a Warrantholders' Request, shall be dissolved; but in any other case it shall stand adjourned to such day, being not less than 15 or more than 60 days later, and to such place and time as may be appointed by the chairman. Not less than 14 days' prior notice shall be given of the time and place of such adjourned meeting in the manner provided for in Section 10.2. Such notice shall state that at the adjourned meeting the Registered Warrantholders present in person or by proxy shall form a quorum but it shall not be necessary to set forth the purposes for which the meeting was originally called or any other particulars. At the adjourned meeting the Registered Warrantholders present in person or by proxy shall form a quorum and may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened and a resolution proposed at such adjourned meeting and passed by the requisite vote as provided in Section 7.11(1) shall be an Extraordinary Resolution within the meaning of this Indenture notwithstanding that Registered Warrantholders holding at least 10% of the aggregate number of all the then outstanding Warrants are not present in person or by proxy at such adjourned meeting.

    (3) Subject to Section 7.14, votes on an Extraordinary Resolution shall always be given on a poll and no demand for a poll on an Extraordinary Resolution shall be necessary.

    Section 7.12 Powers Cumulative.

    Any one or more of the powers or any combination of the powers in this Indenture stated to be exercisable by the Registered Warrantholders by Extraordinary Resolution or otherwise may be exercised from time to time and the exercise of any one or more of such powers or any combination of powers from time to time shall not be deemed to exhaust the right of the Registered Warrantholders to exercise such power or powers or combination of powers then or thereafter from time to time.

    Section 7.13 Minutes.

    Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting of Registered Warrantholders shall be made and duly recorded in the books and such minutes as aforesaid, if signed by the chairman or the secretary of the meeting at which such resolutions were passed or proceedings had shall be prima facie evidence of the matters therein stated and, until the contrary is proved, every such meeting in respect of the proceedings of which minutes shall have been made shall be deemed to have been duly convened and held, and all resolutions passed thereat or proceedings taken shall be deemed to have been duly passed and taken.

    
        34

    

    

    Section 7.14 Instruments in Writing.

    (a) setting forth any adjustments resulting from the application of the provisions of Article 4;

    (b) adding to the provisions hereof such additional covenants and enforcement provisions as, in the opinion of Counsel, are necessary or advisable in the circumstances, provided that the same are not in the opinion of the Warrant Agent, relying on the advice of Counsel, prejudicial to the interests of the Registered Warrantholders;

    
        35

    

    

    (c) giving effect to any Extraordinary Resolution passed as provided in Section 7.11;

    (d) making such provisions not inconsistent with this Indenture as may be necessary or desirable with respect to matters or questions arising hereunder or for the purpose of obtaining a listing or quotation of the Warrants on any stock exchange or quotation system, provided that such provisions are not, in the opinion of the Warrant Agent, relying on the advice of Counsel, prejudicial to the interests of the Registered Warrantholders;

    (e) adding to or altering the provisions hereof in respect of the transfer of Warrants, making provision for the exchange of Warrants, and making any modification in the form of the Warrant Certificates which does not affect the substance thereof;

    (f) modifying any of the provisions of this Indenture, including relieving the Corporation from any of the obligations, conditions or restrictions herein contained, provided that such modification or relief shall be or become operative or effective only if, in the opinion of the Warrant Agent, relying on the advice of Counsel, such modification or relief in no way prejudices any of the rights of the Registered Warrantholders or of the Warrant Agent, and provided further that the Warrant Agent may in its sole discretion decline to enter into any such supplemental indenture which in its opinion may not afford adequate protection to the Warrant Agent when the same shall become operative;

    (g) providing for the issuance of additional Warrants hereunder, including Warrants in excess of the number set out in Section 2.1 and any consequential amendments hereto as may be required by the Warrant Agent relying on the advice of Counsel; and

    (h) for any other purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture, including the correction or rectification of any ambiguities, defective or inconsistent provisions, errors, mistakes or omissions herein, provided that in the opinion of the Warrant Agent, relying on the advice of Counsel, the rights of the Warrant Agent and of the Registered Warrantholders are in no way prejudiced thereby.

    Section 8.2 Successor Entities. 

    (1) The Corporation shall not enter into any transaction or series of transactions whereby all or substantially all of its undertaking, property or assets would become the property of any other person (other than the Corporation's direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries) (herein called a "Successor") whether by way of reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, transfer, sale, lease or otherwise, unless prior to or contemporaneously with the consummation of such transaction, the Corporation and the Successor shall have executed such instruments and done such things as, in the opinion of Counsel, are necessary or advisable to establish that upon the consummation of such transaction:

    (a) the Successor will have assumed all the covenants and obligations of the Corporation under this Indenture in respect of the Warrants;

    (b) if the Successor is organized otherwise than under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, it shall attorn to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia;

    
        36

    

    

    (c) the Warrants will be valid and binding obligations of the Successor entitling the holders thereof, as against the Successor, to all the rights of Warrantholders under this Indenture; and

    (2) For certainty, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease (in a single transaction or a series of transactions) of the properties or assets of one or more of the Corporation's subsidiaries (other than to the Corporation or another direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) which, if such properties or assets were directly owned by the Corporation, would constitute all or substantially all of the Corporation's properties or assets on a consolidated basis, will be deemed to be a sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the Corporation's properties or assets.

    (3) Whenever the conditions of Section 8.2(1) and (2) shall have been duly observed and performed, any Successor formed by or resulting from such transaction shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Corporation under this Indenture with the same effect as though the Successor had been named as the Corporation herein and thereafter, except in the case of a lease or other similar disposition of property to the Successor, the Corporation shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Warrants. The Warrant Agent will, at the expense of the Successor, execute any documents which it may be advised by Counsel are necessary or advisable for effecting or evidencing such release and discharge.

    (4) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 8.2 (1) through (3) shall not apply to a transaction or series of transactions where the Warrants are cancelled, exchanged for cash or exchanged for equity securities pursuant to a take-over bid or a court or shareholder approved transaction.

    ARTICLE 9

    CONCERNING THE WARRANT AGENT

    Section 9.1 Trust Indenture Legislation.

    (1) If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with a mandatory requirement of Applicable Legislation, such mandatory requirement shall prevail.

    (2) The Corporation and the Warrant Agent agree that each will, at all times in relation to this Indenture and any action to be taken hereunder, observe and comply with and be entitled to the benefits of Applicable Legislation.

    Section 9.2 Rights and Duties of Warrant Agent.

    (1) In the exercise of the rights and duties prescribed or conferred by the terms of this Indenture, the Warrant Agent shall act honestly and in good faith and exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent warrant agent would exercise in comparable circumstances. No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Warrant Agent from liability for its own gross negligent action, wilful misconduct, bad faith or fraud under this Indenture.

    
        37

    

    

    (2) The obligation of the Warrant Agent to commence or continue any act, action or proceeding for the purpose of enforcing any rights of the Warrant Agent or the Registered Warrantholders hereunder shall be conditional upon the Registered Warrantholders furnishing, when required by notice by the Warrant Agent, sufficient funds to commence or to continue such act, action or proceeding and an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Agent to protect and to hold harmless the Warrant Agent and its officers, directors, employees and agents, against the costs, charges and expenses and liabilities to be incurred thereby and any loss and damage it may suffer by reason thereof. None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Warrant Agent to expend or to risk its own funds or otherwise to incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers unless indemnified and funded as aforesaid.

    (3) The Warrant Agent may, before commencing or at any time during the continuance of any such act, action or proceeding, require the Registered Warrantholders, at whose instance it is acting to deposit with the Warrant Agent the Warrants Certificates held by them, for which Warrants the Warrant Agent shall issue receipts.

    (4) Every provision of this Indenture that by its terms relieves the Warrant Agent of liability or entitles it to rely upon any evidence submitted to it is subject to the provisions of Applicable Legislation.

    Section 9.3 Evidence, Experts and Advisers.

    (1) In addition to the reports, certificates, opinions and other evidence required by this Indenture, the Corporation shall furnish to the Warrant Agent such additional evidence of compliance with any provision hereof, and in such form, as may be prescribed by Applicable Legislation or as the Warrant Agent may reasonably require by written notice to the Corporation.

    (2) In the exercise of its rights and duties hereunder, the Warrant Agent may, if it is acting in good faith, rely as to the truth of the statements and the accuracy of the opinions expressed in statutory declarations, opinions, reports, written requests, consents, or orders of the Corporation, certificates of the Corporation or other evidence furnished to the Warrant Agent pursuant to a request of the Warrant Agent, provided that such evidence complies with Applicable Legislation and that the Warrant Agent complies with Applicable Legislation and that the Warrant Agent examines the same and determines that such evidence complies with the applicable requirements of this Indenture.

    (3) Whenever it is provided in this Indenture or under Applicable Legislation that the Corporation shall deposit with the Warrant Agent resolutions, certificates, reports, opinions, requests, orders or other documents, it is intended that the truth, accuracy and good faith on the effective date thereof and the facts and opinions stated in all such documents so deposited shall, in each and every such case, be conditions precedent to the right of the Corporation to have the Warrant Agent take the action to be based thereon.

    (4) The Warrant Agent may employ or retain such Counsel, accountants, appraisers or other experts or advisers as it may reasonably require for the purpose of discharging its duties hereunder and may pay reasonable remuneration for all services so performed by any of them, without taxation of costs of any Counsel, and shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such experts or advisers who have been appointed with due care by the Warrant Agent.

    
        38

    

    

    (5) The Warrant Agent may act and rely and shall be protected in acting and relying in good faith on the opinion or advice of or information obtained from any Counsel, accountant, appraiser, engineer or other expert or adviser, whether retained or employed by the Corporation or by the Warrant Agent, in relation to any matter arising in the administration of the agency hereof.

All amounts held by the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Indenture shall be held by the Warrant Agent for the Corporation and the delivery of the funds to the Warrant Agent shall not give rise to a debtor-creditor or other similar relationship. The amounts held by the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Indenture are at the sole risk of Corporation and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Warrant Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any diminution of the funds which may result from any deposit made with an Approved Bank pursuant to this Section 9.4, including any losses resulting from a default by the Approved Bank or other credit losses (whether or not resulting from such a default). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Warrant Agent will have acted prudently in depositing the funds at any Approved Bank and that the Warrant Agent is not required to make any further inquiries in respect of any such bank. The Warrant Agent may hold cash balances constituting part or all of such monies and need not, invest same and the Warrant Agent shall not be liable to account for any profit to any parties to this Indenture or to any other person or entity.

    Section 9.7 Protection of Warrant Agent.

    By way of supplement to the provisions of any law for the time being relating to the Warrant Agent, it is expressly declared and agreed as follows:

    (a) the Warrant Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any statements of fact or recitals in this Indenture or in the Warrant Certificates (except in the authentication of the Warrant Agent on the Warrant Certificates) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements or recitals are and shall be deemed to be made by the Corporation;

    (c) the Warrant Agent shall not be bound to give notice to any person or persons of the execution hereof;

    (e) the Corporation hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless the Warrant Agent, its affiliates, their officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all liabilities whatsoever, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, costs, charges, assessments, judgments, expenses and disbursements, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of whatever kind and nature which may at any time be imposed on or incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified Parties, or any of them, whether at law or in equity, in any way caused by or arising, directly or indirectly, in respect of any act, deed, matter or thing whatsoever made, done, acquiesced in or omitted in or about or in relation to the execution of the Indemnified Parties' duties, or any other services that Warrant Agent may provide in connection with or in any way relating to this Indenture.

    Section 9.8 Replacement of Warrant Agent; Successor by Merger.

    (1) The Warrant Agent may resign its agency and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder, subject to this Section 9.8, by giving to the Corporation not less than 60 days' prior notice in writing or such shorter prior notice as the Corporation may accept as sufficient. The Registered Warrantholders by Extraordinary Resolution shall have power at any time to remove the existing Warrant Agent and to appoint a new warrant agent. In the event of the Warrant Agent resigning or being removed as aforesaid or being dissolved, becoming bankrupt, going into liquidation or otherwise becoming incapable of acting hereunder, the Corporation shall forthwith appoint a new warrant agent unless a new warrant agent has already been appointed by the Registered Warrantholders; failing such appointment by the Corporation, the retiring Warrant Agent or any Registered Warrantholder may apply to a judge of the Province of British Columbia on such notice as such judge may direct, for the appointment of a new warrant agent; but any new warrant agent so appointed by the Corporation or by the Court shall be subject to removal as aforesaid by the Registered Warrantholders. Any new warrant agent appointed under any provision of this Section 9.8 shall be an entity authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in the Province of British Columbia and, if required by the Applicable Legislation for any other provinces, in such other provinces.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.9(1), if any such material conflict of interest exists or hereafter shall exist, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and the Warrant Certificate shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason thereof.

    Section 10.7 Provisions of Indenture and Warrants for the Sole Benefit of Parties and Registered Warrantholders.

    Section 10.12 Rights of Rescission and Withdrawal for Holders.

    Should a holder of Warrants exercise any legal, statutory, contractual or other right of withdrawal or rescission that may be available to it, and the holder's funds which were paid on exercise have already been released to the Corporation by the Warrant Agent, the Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for ensuring the exercise is cancelled and a refund is paid back to the holder. In such cases, the holder shall seek a refund directly from the Corporation and subsequently, the Corporation, upon surrender to the Corporation or the Warrant Agent of any underlying Warrant Shares or other securities that may have been issued, or such other procedure as agreed to by the parties hereto, shall instruct the Warrant Agent in writing, to cancel the exercise and any such underlying Warrant Shares or other securities on the register, which may have already been issued upon the Warrant exercise.  In the event that any payment is received from the Corporation by virtue of the holder being a shareholder for such Warrants that were subsequently rescinded, such payment must be returned to the Corporation by such holder.  The Warrant Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any steps to ensure or enforce the return of the funds pursuant to this section, nor shall the Warrant Agent be in any other way responsible in the event that any payment is not delivered or received pursuant to this section.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Corporation provides the refund to the Warrant Agent for distribution to the holder, the Warrant Agent shall return such funds to the holder as soon as reasonably practicable, and in so doing, the Warrant Agent shall incur no liability with respect to the delivery or non-delivery of any such funds.

    
        47

THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT, for value received,
    

    (the "Warrantholder") is the registered holder of the number of common share purchase warrants (the "Warrants") of District Metals Corp. (the "Corporation") specified above, and is entitled, on exercise of these Warrants upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Indenture, to purchase at any time before the Expiry Time (as defined below) on December 30, 2022 (the "Expiry Date") one fully paid and non-assessable common share without par value in the capital of the Corporation as constituted on the date hereof (a "Common Share") for each Warrant, subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Indenture (as hereinafter defined). "Expiry Time" means the earlier of: (i) 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver, British Columbia time) on the Expiry Date and (ii) the Accelerated Expiry Date (as that term is defined in the Warrant Indenture).

    The right to purchase Common Shares may only be exercised by the Warrantholder within the time set forth above by:

    (a) duly completing and executing the exercise form (the "Exercise Form") attached hereto; and

    (b) surrendering this warrant certificate (the "Warrant Certificate"), with the Exercise Form to the Warrant Agent at the principal office of the Warrant Agent, in Vancouver, British Columbia, together with a certified cheque, bank draft or money order in the lawful money of Canada payable to or to the order of the Corporation in an amount equal to the purchase price of the Common Shares so subscribed for.

    The surrender of this Warrant Certificate, the duly completed Exercise Form and payment as provided above will be deemed to have been effected only on personal delivery thereof to, or if sent by mail or other means of transmission on actual receipt thereof by, the Warrant Agent at its principal office as set out above.

    Subject to adjustment thereof in the events and in the manner set forth in the Warrant Indenture hereinafter referred to, the exercise price payable for each Common Share upon the exercise of Warrants shall be $0.42 per Common Share (the "Exercise Price").

    Certificates for the Common Shares subscribed for will be mailed to the persons specified in the Exercise Form at their respective addresses specified therein or, if so specified in the Exercise Form, delivered to such persons at the office where this Warrant Certificate is surrendered.  If fewer Common Shares are purchased than the number that can be purchased pursuant to this Warrant Certificate, the holder hereof will be entitled to receive without charge a new Warrant Certificate in respect of the balance of the Common Shares not so purchased.  No fractional Common Shares will be issued upon exercise of any Warrant.

    
        A-3

    

    

    This Warrant Certificate evidences Warrants of the Corporation issued or issuable under the provisions of a warrant indenture (which indenture together with all other instruments supplemental or ancillary thereto is herein referred to as the "Warrant Indenture") dated as of  December 30, 2020 between the Corporation and Odyssey Trust Company, as Warrant Agent, to which Warrant Indenture reference is hereby made for particulars of the rights of the holders of Warrants, the Corporation and the Warrant Agent in respect thereof and the terms and conditions on which the Warrants are issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Warrant Indenture were herein set forth, to all of which the holder, by acceptance hereof, assents. Any capitalized term in this Warrant Certificate that is not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Warrant Indenture. The Corporation will furnish to the holder, on request and without charge, a copy of the Warrant Indenture.

    On presentation at the principal office of the Warrant Agent as set out above, subject to the provisions of the Warrant Indenture and on compliance with the reasonable requirements of the Warrant Agent, one or more Warrant Certificates may be exchanged for one or more Warrant Certificates entitling the holder thereof to purchase in the aggregate an equal number of Common Shares as are purchasable under the Warrant Certificate(s) so exchanged.

    The Warrant Indenture contains provisions for the adjustment of the Exercise Price payable for each Common Share upon the exercise of Warrants and the number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants in the events and in the manner set forth therein.

    The Warrant Indenture also contains provisions making binding on all holders of Warrants outstanding thereunder resolutions passed at meetings of holders of Warrants held in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Indenture and instruments in writing signed by Warrantholders of Warrants entitled to purchase a specific majority of the Common Shares that can be purchased pursuant to such Warrants. 

    Nothing contained in this Warrant Certificate, the Warrant Indenture or elsewhere shall be construed as conferring upon the holder hereof any right or interest whatsoever as a holder of Common Shares or any other right or interest except as herein and in the Warrant Indenture expressly provided.  In the event of any discrepancy between anything contained in this Warrant Certificate and the terms and conditions of the Warrant Indenture, the terms and conditions of the Warrant Indenture shall govern.

    Warrants may only be transferred in compliance with the conditions of the Warrant Indenture on the register to be kept by the Warrant Agent in Vancouver, British Columbia, or such other registrar as the Corporation, with the approval of the Warrant Agent, may appoint at such other place or places, if any, as may be designated, upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate to the Warrant Agent or other registrar accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form and execution satisfactory to the Warrant Agent or other registrar and upon compliance with the conditions prescribed in the Warrant Indenture and with such reasonable requirements as the Warrant Agent or other registrar may prescribe and upon the transfer being duly noted thereon by the Warrant Agent or other registrar.

    The Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate and the Common Shares issuable upon exercise hereof have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States.  The Warrants may not be exercised by, on behalf of, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons or persons in the United States, except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States after providing to the Corporation, a written opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation; provided however, that a holder who purchased the Warrants directly from the Corporation pursuant to a U.S. Subscription Agreement will not be required to deliver an opinion of counsel if exercising the Warrants for the holder's own account and such holder is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the U.S. Securities Act both at the time of acquisition of the Warrants and at the time of exercise of the Warrants.

    The parties hereto have declared that they have required that these presents and all other documents related hereto be in the English language.

    Conveyance and Agreement

    1. Conveyance of Royalty and Option to Reduce Royalty.

    (a) For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Owner does hereby grant, bargain, sell, convey, assign, transfer, set over and deliver to Royalty Holder a royalty interest of 2.5% of the Production Returns (the "Royalty") in, to and burdening the following:

    The properties described in Exhibit A hereto, and any and all After-Acquired Property (collectively, the "Properties").

    (b) As set forth herein, Owner shall have the option to purchase a total of a one-half percent (.5)% of the Royalty from Royalty Holder leaving Royalty Holder with a 2.0% Royalty. Owner may exercise its option to purchase the .5% Royalty interest by providing written notice ("Exercise Notice") and payment of CDN$2,000,000 to Royalty Holder on or before the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Royalty Date. The Parties shall make diligent efforts to close the conveyance of the purchased Royalty interest within thirty (30) days of receipt by Royalty Holder of the Exercise Notice.

    2. Annual Advance Royalties.

    (a) Amounts and Timing. In addition to the foregoing and subject to the provisions of Section 2(e) below, beginning on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Royalty Date, Owner shall pay Royalty Holder annual advance minimum royalties ("Annual Advance Royalties") of CDN$25,000. The amount of the Annual Advanced Royalty payment shall increase by ten thousand dollars (CDN$10,000) each year and shall be payable on or before each anniversary of the Royalty Date, provided that such Annual Advanced Royalty payments will not exceed CDN$75,000 per year.

    Annual Advance Royalties shall be the minimum amount payable each year of this Instrument. In the event the Royalty paid in any year is less than the Annual Advance Royalties for that year, the Owner shall pay the Royalty Holder the difference by wire transfer to an account designated by Royalty Holder. All Annual Advance Royalties paid by Owner to Royalty Holder shall constitute prepayment of and advance against Royalty payments thereafter accruing to Royalty Holder during the term of this Instrument, to be set off as provided in Section 2(c).

    (b) Set-Off. Annual Advance Royalties paid under this Section 2 will be set off against 80% of the Royalty as each payment of Royalty comes due under this Instrument. The obligation to make payments of Annual Advance Royalties shall not be suspended by a Force Majeure Event, and such payments shall be made regardless of whether Owner conducts exploration, development, or other operations on the Properties. Owner shall make all payments of Annual Advance Royalties by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by Royalty Holder in writing to Owner.

    

    (c) Default in Payment. Delinquent payments of Annual Advance Royalties shall bear interest at the Applicable Rate plus 5%, commencing on the due date, compounding and calculated daily until paid. For the purposes of this paragraph, the determination of the Applicable Rate shall be made as of the date on which such payment was due. The Owner shall be deemed to be in default of its obligation to make an Annual Advance Royalty payment upon failing to do so on or before the day that is 60 days after the due date therefor and provided Royalty Holder has provided Owner with written notice thereof.

    (d) Security. The payment of the Annual Advance Royalties by Owner and the Owner Guarantorwill be secured by a pledge of all issued and outstanding securities of the Owner. Royalty Holder agrees to subordinate any such security, on terms and conditions satisfactory to Royalty Holder, acting reasonably, to the security interests of lenders or financiers that specifically require priority and that are providing project financing in respect of the development of the Properties.

From and after the Commencement of Commercial Production, the Royalty Holder may elect to receive the Royalty on gold and silver in kind by physical delivery of gold and/or silver bullion for any payment hereunder, by notifying Owner of its election on or before December 1 in the preceding calendar year. An election by the Royalty Holder to receive the Royalty in kind shall be irrevocable for the calendar year for which it is made. Failure of the Royalty Holder to notify Owner by December 1 of its election to take the Royalty in kind shall be deemed a waiver by the Royalty Holder of all rights to take the Royalty in kind during the following calendar year. Owner shall provide at least 15 days' prior notice to the Royalty Holder of the name and location of the refinery and the date or dates on which the bullion will be delivered and Royalty Holder shall open an account with such refinery. If the Royalty Holder elects to take in kind, the Owner shall deliver written instructions to the refinery, with a copy to Royalty Holder, directing the refinery to deliver the number of ounces of gold or silver bullion for which the Royalty is due in respect of the relevant period by crediting such amount to the Royalty Holder's account. . If the Royalty Holder desires Owner to deliver the bullion to it at a place other than the place of refining, the Royalty Holder shall reimburse Owner for the costs incurred by Owner in making such delivery, which costs include transportation and insurance. If and to the extent the Royalty is paid in kind and does not reflect the Allowable Deductions that are incurred and deductible in calculating the Royalty under this Instrument, then the Royalty Holder shall remit to the Owner the full amount of such Allowable Deductions. Such costs and/or Allowable Deductions shall be payable by the Royalty Holder to Owner within 15 days of receipt by the Royalty Holder of Owner's invoice. If the Royalty Holder fails or refuses to pay such costs and/or Allowable Deductions, Owner shall have a security interest in and may deduct such defaulted costs and charges from any future Royalty payments due to the Royalty Holder. Title to the bullion delivered to the Royalty Holder under this Instrument shall pass to the Royalty Holder at the time such bullion is credited to the Royalty Holder at the refinery or other location directed by the Royalty Holder.

    (c) Deductions.

Owner shall set out in the statements referred to in Sections 3(a) and 3(f), any amounts so withheld.

    (d) Provisional Payments. If Production Returns are received on a provisional basis, the Production Returns shall be calculated based on provisional payments received by or credited to the account of Owner at the time for payment and provisionally paid, and an adjustment shall be made on the next quarterly Royalty payment based upon final Production Returns for such Calculation Period.

    (e) Adjustments. Each quarterly payment or provisional payment may be adjusted to

    (i) any adjustments to charges, costs, deductions or expenses imposed upon or incurred by Owner but not taken into account in determining previous Royalty payments;

    (ii) any adjustments in the number of appropriate units of measurement of Products produced by Owner, or previously credited to Owner by a smelter, refiner or bona fide third party purchaser of Products sold or otherwise disposed of by Owner; and

    

    (iii) any amounts qualifying as Allowable Deductions that have not otherwise been credited against or deducted from previous Royalty payments;

    which adjustments shall be specified in the statement accompanying each such payment in accordance with Section 3.

With the delivery of such final report, Owner shall, if applicable, make such additional Royalty payment as may be required by the report. If such report indicates that the Royalty Holder has been overpaid in respect of the Royalty due to the Royalty Holder, then the excess shall be deducted from the next Royalty payment owed or, if any temporary or permanent cessation of production has occurred, the Royalty Holder shall repay the excess within 15 days of the annual report.

    4. Maintenance of Books and Records. All books and records used by Owner to calculate the Royalty due hereunder shall be kept in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles varied only by the specific provisions hereof. Owner shall maintain up-to-date and complete records of the production and sale or other disposition of all Products.

    (b) If (i) Owner delivers a Relinquishment Notice to Royalty Holder as set forth in Section 29(a) Royalty Holder shall have the right to demand that Owner transfer the Licenses, free of Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances and for no further consideration (a "Transfer" for the purposes of this Section 29). If Owner delivers a Relinquishment Notice to Royalty Holder as set forth in Section 29(a) with respect to less than all of the Properties, Royalty Holder shall only have the right to demand that Owner cause the Transfer to occur only with respect to the Properties proposed to be relinquished or abandoned and the Owner shall have no further obligations in respect of relinquished Properties.

    (c) Within 10 days after receipt by Owner of the demand for Transfer described in Section 29(b), Owner shall:

    (i) have made all payments, performed all work and paid all exploration expenditures with respect to the Properties sufficient to keep the same in good standing, force and effect through the date of Transfer and for a period of six (6) months thereafter (the "Tail Period"); provided, however, that any payments, work and exploration expenditures to be made with respect to the Tail Period shall be in proportion that the Tail Period bears to the then-current annual work expenditure period required by the Properties and Law;

    

    (ii) leave the Properties (A) free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances; (B) in a safe and orderly condition; and (C) in compliance with all reclamation obligations arising as a result of work on the Properties;

    If Royalty Holder requests a Transfer of the Licenses pursuant to Section 29(b) then, in addition to complying with Section 29(c) above, Owner shall execute and deliver all instruments, and take all actions, necessary or reasonably requested by Royalty Holder to transfer the Properties to Royalty Holder or its designee(s).

    30. Notices. All notices, payments and other required communications to the Parties shall be in writing, and shall be given (a) by personal delivery to the applicable Party, or (b) by electronic communication, with a confirmation sent by registered or certified mail return receipt requested, or (c) by registered or certified mail return receipt requested, at the addresses set forth below:
