Any changes to the Share Reserve, including the Additional Share Reserve, shall be recommended by the CEO to the HRC Committee for its review and recommendation to the Board. Any increase in the Share Reserve, including the Additional Share Reserve, shall be subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation in accordance with the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange.

5.    PARTICIPATION AND GRANT OF OPTIONS

		
	(a)
	The CEO may from time to time recommend to the HRC Committee employees of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries for participation in the Plan and the extent and terms of their participation. The HRC Committee shall consider such recommendations and may approve such recommended employees for 

participation in the Plan and the extent and terms of their participation, subject to the following:

		
	(i)
	the total number of Shares reserved for issuance to any one Participant pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation shall not exceed in the aggregate 5% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of reservation;

		
	(ii)
	the total number of Shares reserved for issuance to Insiders pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation shall not exceed 10% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of reservation;

		
	(iii)
	the total number of Shares issued to Insiders pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation within any one-year period shall not exceed 10% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of issuance (excluding any other shares issued under all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation during such one-year period); and

		
	(iv)
	the total number of Shares issued to any one Insider and such Insider’s associates (as defined in the Securities Act (Alberta)) pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation within any one-year period shall not exceed 5% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of issuance (excluding any other shares issued under all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation during such one-year period).

For the purposes of (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, any entitlement to acquire Shares granted pursuant to the Plan prior to the Participant becoming an Insider are to be excluded from the calculation.

(b)    The CEO:

		
	(i)
	may issue inducement grants to any new employee of the Corporation, or a Subsidiary other than new employees that report directly to the CEO and may with the approval of the HRC Committee issue inducement grants to new employees that report directly to the CEO, provided that the number of Options comprising any such grant shall not exceed the lesser of: (i) the amount provided for in the policies of the HRC Committee from time to time; and (ii) 2% of the number of outstanding Shares (on a non-dilutive

basis) at the applicable date, and such inducement grant will be reported to the HRC Committee at the next committee meeting; and

		
	(ii)
	shall recommend to the HRC Committee specific grants to Participants who report directly to the CEO and the total grants for all other levels of Participants.

(c)    The HRC Committee shall:

(i)    determine and recommend to the Board, for its approval, the grant date of
Options;

(ii)    determine and recommend to the Board, for its approval, the grants to be made to the CEO; and

(iii)    review and recommend to the Board, for its approval, any other grants made pursuant to the Plan.

		
	(d)
	Directors who are not full-time employees of the Corporation or a Subsidiary shall not be eligible to become Participants.

		
	(e)
	A designated employee shall have the right not to participate in the Plan, and any decision not to participate shall not affect his or her employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary. Participation in the Plan does not confer upon the Participant any right to continued employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary.

6.    OPTION TERMS

(a) Term

The term (“Term”) during which an Option shall be exercisable shall be fixed by the HRC Committee at the time of grant, but in no case shall a term exceed 10 years, and each Option shall be subject to earlier termination, as provided in Section 7; provided that when the Term expires in a Blackout Period the Term shall be extended to a date that is five Trading Days after the end of the Blackout Period.

(b)    Exercise

An Option shall vest and become exercisable in accordance with the terms set by the HRC Committee at the time of grant. A Participant may exercise vested installments of his or her Option in whole or in part at any time and from time to time during the Term.

(c)    Grant and Price

Subject to the following sentence, the price (the “Grant Price”) at which Shares will be issued to a Participant pursuant to the Option shall be determined on the date (the “Grant Date”) that the Option is awarded and the Grant Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value determined as at the Grant Date. If an Option is awarded at a time when a Blackout Period is in effect, the Grant Price of the Option will be set on and the Grant Date will be the sixth Trading Day following the termination of the Blackout Period; provided that where another Blackout Period commences within such six Trading Days, the determination of the Grant Price and the Grant Date will be further postponed and will be set as provided above in this sentence (and so on from time to time).

(d)    Payment

Participants shall be required to make payment in full for any Shares purchased upon the exercise, in whole or in part, of any Option granted under the Plan and no Shares shall be issued until full payment has been made. Payment must be in the currency of Canada or the United States of America.

(e)    Share Settled Options

If approved by the Board, in lieu of paying the Grant Price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to such exercise, the Participant may elect to acquire the number of Shares determined by subtracting the Grant Price from the Then Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise, multiplying the difference by the number of Shares in respect of which the Option was otherwise being exercised and then dividing that product by the Then Fair Market Value of the Shares. For this purpose, the “Then Fair Market Value” means the price at which the Shares could be sold or are sold on the Toronto Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange on the date of exercise of the Option.  In such event, the number of Shares as so determined (and not the number of Shares to be issued under the Option) will be deemed to be issued under the Plan. 

(f)    Share Ownership Guidelines

If on exercise of any Options the number of Shares held by the Participant is less than the number of Shares to be held by him or her pursuant to any share ownership guidelines of the Corporation in effect from time to time and applicable to such Participant, then the Participant shall be required to retain Shares acquired on exercise of Options (net of Shares that are required to be sold by the Participant to meet any tax liabilities arising on exercise of the Options) to meet the requirements of such share ownership guidelines.

(g)    Transferability

Options are not transferable or assignable other than by will or according to the laws of descent and distribution.

7.    TERMINATION

(a)    Voluntary Termination

If a Participant voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary, all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant as at the last day of such Participant’s employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary); and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options; following which any unexercised and vested Options shall be cancelled.

All unvested Options held by the Participant as at the last day of the Participant’s employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall be cancelled on the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary).

(b)    Involuntary Termination Not For Cause

If the employment of a Participant is terminated by the Corporation or a Subsidiary other than For Cause, all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the expiration of any Notice Period; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the
Options; following which any vested and unexercised Options shall be cancelled.

All unvested Options held by the Participant on the last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall continue to vest in accordance with the Plan and shall be exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the expiry of the Notice Period; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options; following which all vested and unexercised Options and all unvested Options shall be cancelled.

For the purposes of this subsection 7(b), if a Participant’s employment terminates due to the constructive dismissal of the Participant, such termination shall be treated as an involuntary termination by the Corporation or a Subsidiary other than For Cause.

(c)    Involuntary Termination For Cause

If the employment of a Participant is terminated by the Corporation or a Subsidiary For Cause, all Options held by such Participant as at the date of such termination, whether vested or unvested, shall be cancelled on the Participant’s last day of active employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary).

(d)    Death

If the employment of a Participant with the Corporation or a Subsidiary is terminated as a result of the death of such Participant, all unvested Options held by such Participant shall vest on the date of such Participant’s death. All outstanding Options held by such Participant as at the date of termination of the Participant shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 12 months following
the date of such Participant’s death; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options;
following which any unexercised Options shall be cancelled.

(e)    Retirement

If a Participant has attained the age of 55 and retires from his or her employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary pursuant to a Retirement Plan and he or she is eligible for benefits under a Retirement Plan, all Options (vested and unvested) held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall continue in accordance with the Plan, including vesting as provided in the Plan; provided that Options may only be exercised until the earlier of: (i) three years following the date of such Participant’s retirement; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options; following which any unexercised and vested Options and unvested Options shall be cancelled.

(f)    Disability

If the employment of a Participant with the Corporation (or a Subsidiary) is terminated as a result of the “disability” of such Participant, all Options held by such Participant on the last day of the Participant’s employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall continue in accordance with the terms of such Options as if the Participant continued to be actively employed by the Corporation (or its Subsidiary).

For purposes of the foregoing, a Participant shall be considered to be suffering from a “disability” if he or she is eligible for benefits under a
Corporation-sponsored long term disability benefits plan. 

(g)    Leaves of Absence
If a Participant is on a parental or other leave of absence approved by the Corporation or a Subsidiary for a period of greater than three months, all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of active employment prior to such parental or other leave shall continue to be exercisable in accordance with the terms of such Options, following which all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant shall be cancelled. All unvested Options held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of active employment prior to such parental or other leave shall continue to vest 

during such Participant’s leave, provided that if the Participant does not return to active employment by the end of the leave, all vested and unvested Options as at the end of the leave of absence shall be treated in accordance with the second paragraph of subsection 7(a) on the assumption that the Participant’s last day of employment is the end of the leave of absence. Unless otherwise determined by
the HRC Committee, no additional Option grants shall be made to any Participant during such Participant’s leave of absence.

(h)    Secondments

If a Participant is seconded to an entity other than a Subsidiary, the HRC Committee (in the case of Participants that report directly to the CEO) and the CEO (in the case of all other Participants) shall determine the manner in which all Options, vested and unvested, held by the Participant as at the date of the secondment shall be treated under the Plan.

(i)    Change of Control

In the event of a Change of Control, all unvested Options held by a Participant shall vest on a date, as determined by the HRC Committee, that is not more than
30 days and not less than five days prior to the date of the Change of Control. In connection with any Change of Control, the HRC Committee will allow, where necessary in the circumstances, for the conditional vesting and exercise of Options and where such conditions are not met and the Change of Control does not occur the Options shall continue as if no vesting or exercise had occurred.

(j)    No Future Grants; No Cash Payment

Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events listed under subsections 7(a) to (f) in respect of a Participant, such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any further Option grants or the value of any grants foregone as a consequence of any such event and, except as set forth herein, shall not be entitled to receive any cash payment for the value of any unexercised Options, vested or unvested, held by the Participant as at the date of occurrence of such event.

interests of the Corporation. Such regulations and provisions may include the delegation to any Director or Directors or any officer or officers of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries of such administrative duties and powers of the HRC Committee as it may, in its sole discretion, deem fit. The determinations of the HRC Committee in the administration of the Plan shall be final and conclusive. 

(b) The HRC Committee is also authorized to approve, for each Option granted under the Plan, the terms for vesting any Option granted under the Plan. 

(c) Subject to Section 12, the HRC Committee may waive any restrictions with respect to participation in the Plan or vesting with respect to any specific Participants where, in the opinion of the HRC Committee, it is reasonable to do so and such waiver does not prejudice the rights of the Participant under the Plan.

		
	(d)
	Subject to Section 12, the HRC Committee may amend the Plan for any general administrative matters, correct, remedy or reconcile any errors, inconsistencies or ambiguities, cashless exercise, vesting or termination provisions, and recommend to the Board for its approval any other amendments.

In addition, the difference between (i) the number of Shares in respect of which an Option is being exercised and (ii) the number of Shares received under the Share Settled Option (as provided in Section 6(e)) shall be deemed not to be issued under the Plan and shall be available for the grant of further Options hereunder.

Any changes to the Share Reserve, including the Additional Share Reserve, shall be recommended by the CEO to the HRC Committee for its review and recommendation to the Board. Any increase in the Share Reserve, including the Additional Share Reserve, shall be subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation in accordance with the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange.

5.    PARTICIPATION AND GRANT OF OPTIONS

		
	(a)
	The CEO may from time to time recommend to the HRC Committee employees of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries for participation in the Plan and the extent and terms of their participation. The HRC Committee shall consider such recommendations and may approve such recommended employees for participation in the Plan and the extent and terms of their participation, subject to the following:

		
	(i)
	the total number of Shares reserved for issuance to any one Participant pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation shall not exceed in the aggregate 5% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of reservation;

		
	(ii)
	the total number of Shares reserved for issuance to Insiders pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation shall not exceed 10% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of reservation;

		
	(iii)
	the total number of Shares issued to Insiders pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation within any one-year period shall not exceed 10% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of issuance (excluding any other shares issued under all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation during such one-year period); and

		
	(iv)
	the total number of Shares issued to any one Insider and such Insider’s associates (as defined in the Securities Act (Alberta)) pursuant to all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation within any one-year period shall not exceed 5% of the number of Shares outstanding at the time of issuance (excluding any other shares issued under all security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation during such one-year period).

For the purposes of (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, any entitlement to acquire Shares granted pursuant to the Plan prior to the Participant becoming an Insider are to be excluded from the calculation.

(b)    The CEO:

		
	(i)
	may issue inducement grants to any new employee of the Corporation, or a Subsidiary other than new employees that report directly to the CEO and may with the approval of the HRC Committee issue inducement grants to new employees that report directly to the CEO, provided that the number of Options comprising any such grant shall not exceed the lesser of: (i) the amount provided for in the policies of the HRC Committee from time to time; and (ii) 2% of the number of outstanding Shares (on a non-dilutive

basis) at the applicable date, and such inducement grant will be reported to the HRC Committee at the next committee meeting; and

		
	(ii)
	shall recommend to the HRC Committee specific grants to Participants who report directly to the CEO and the total grants for all other levels of Participants.

(c)    The HRC Committee shall:

(i)    determine and recommend to the Board, for its approval, the grant date of
Options;

		
	(ii)
	determine and recommend to the Board, for its approval, the grants to be made to the CEO; and

		
	(iii)
	review and recommend to the Board, for its approval, any other grants made pursuant to the Plan.

		
	(d)
	Directors who are not full-time employees of the Corporation or a Subsidiary shall not be eligible to become Participants.

		
	(e)
	A designated employee shall have the right not to participate in the Plan, and any decision not to participate shall not affect his or her employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary. Participation in the Plan does not confer upon the Participant any right to continued employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary.

6.    OPTION TERMS

(a) Term

The term (“Term”) during which an Option shall be exercisable shall be fixed by the HRC Committee at the time of grant, but in no case shall a term exceed 10 years, and each Option shall be subject to earlier termination, as provided in Section 7; provided that when the Term expires in a Blackout Period the Term shall be extended to a date that is five Trading Days after the end of the Blackout Period.

(b)    Exercise

An Option shall vest and become exercisable in accordance with the terms set by the HRC Committee at the time of grant. A Participant may exercise vested installments of his or her Option in whole or in part at any time and from time to time during the Term.

(c)    Grant and Price

Subject to the following sentence, the price (the “Grant Price”) at which Shares will be issued to a Participant pursuant to the Option shall be determined on the date (the “Grant Date”) that the Option is awarded and the Grant Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value determined as at the Grant Date. If an Option is awarded at a time when a Blackout Period is in effect, the Grant Price of the Option will be set on and the Grant Date will be the sixth Trading Day following the termination of the Blackout Period; provided that where another Blackout Period commences within such six Trading Days, the determination of the Grant Price and the Grant Date will be further postponed and will be set as provided above in this sentence (and so on from time to time).

(d)    Payment

Participants shall be required to make payment in full for any Shares purchased upon the exercise, in whole or in part, of any Option granted under the Plan and no Shares shall be issued until full payment has been made. Payment must be in the currency of Canada or the United States of America.

(e)    Share Settled Options

If approved by the Board, in lieu of paying the Grant Price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to such exercise, the Participant may elect to acquire the number of Shares determined by subtracting the Grant Price from the Then Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise, multiplying the difference by the number of Shares in respect of which the Option was otherwise being exercised and then dividing that product by the Then Fair Market Value of the Shares. For this purpose, the “Then Fair Market Value” means the price at which the Shares could be sold or are sold on the Toronto Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange on the date of exercise of the Option.  In such event, the number of Shares as so determined (and not the number of Shares to be issued
under the Option) will be deemed to be issued under the Plan.

(f)    Share Ownership Guidelines

If on exercise of any Options the number of Shares held by the Participant is less than the number of Shares to be held by him or her pursuant to any share ownership guidelines of the Corporation in effect from time to time and applicable to such Participant, then the Participant shall be required to retain Shares acquired on exercise of Options (net of Shares that are required to be sold by the Participant to meet any tax liabilities arising on exercise of the Options) to meet the requirements of such share ownership guidelines.

(g)    Transferability

Options are not transferable or assignable other than by will or according to the laws of descent and distribution.

7.    TERMINATION

(a)    Voluntary Termination

If a Participant voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary, all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant as at the last day of such Participant’s employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary); and

(ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options; following which any unexercised and vested Options shall be cancelled.

All unvested Options held by the Participant as at the last day of the Participant’s employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall be cancelled on the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary).

(b)    Involuntary Termination Not For Cause

If the employment of a Participant is terminated by the Corporation or a Subsidiary other than For Cause, all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the expiration of any Notice Period; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the
Options; following which any vested and unexercised Options shall be cancelled.

All unvested Options held by the Participant on the last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall continue to vest in accordance with the Plan and shall be exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the expiry of the Notice Period; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options; following which all vested and unexercised Options and all unvested Options shall be cancelled.

For the purposes of this subsection 7(b), if a Participant’s employment terminates due to the constructive dismissal of the Participant, such termination shall be treated as an involuntary termination by the Corporation or a Subsidiary other than For Cause.

(c)    Involuntary Termination For Cause

If the employment of a Participant is terminated by the Corporation or a Subsidiary For Cause, all Options held by such Participant as at the date of such termination, whether vested or unvested, shall be cancelled on the Participant’s last day of active employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary).

(d)    Death

If the employment of a Participant with the Corporation or a Subsidiary is terminated as a result of the death of such Participant, all unvested Options held by such Participant shall vest on the date of such Participant’s death. All outstanding Options held by such Participant as at the date of termination of the Participant shall remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) 12 months following
the date of such Participant’s death; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options;
following which any unexercised Options shall be cancelled.

(e)    Retirement

If a Participant has attained the age of 55 and retires from his or her employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary pursuant to a Retirement Plan and he or she is eligible for benefits under a Retirement Plan, all Options (vested and unvested) held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall continue in accordance with the Plan, 

including vesting as provided in the Plan; provided that Options may only be exercised until the earlier of: (i) three years following the date of such Participant’s retirement; and (ii) the expiry of the Term of the Options; following which any unexercised and vested Options and unvested Options shall be cancelled.

(f)    Disability

If the employment of a Participant with the Corporation (or a Subsidiary) is terminated as a result of the “disability” of such Participant, all Options held by such Participant on the last day of the Participant’s employment with the Corporation (or its Subsidiary) shall continue in accordance with the terms of such Options as if the Participant continued to be actively employed by the Corporation (or its Subsidiary).

For purposes of the foregoing, a Participant shall be considered to be suffering from a “disability” if he or she is eligible for benefits under a
Corporation-sponsored long term disability benefits plan.

(g)    Leaves of Absence

If a Participant is on a parental or other leave of absence approved by the Corporation or a Subsidiary for a period of greater than three months, all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of active employment prior to such parental or other leave shall continue to be exercisable in accordance with the terms of such Options, following which all unexercised and vested Options held by such Participant shall be cancelled. All unvested Options held by such Participant as at the Participant’s last day of active employment prior to such parental or other leave shall continue to vest during such Participant’s leave, provided that if the Participant does not return to active employment by the end of the leave, all vested and unvested Options as at the end of the leave of absence shall be treated in accordance with the second paragraph of subsection 7(a) on the assumption that the Participant’s last day of employment is the end of the leave of absence. Unless otherwise determined by
the HRC Committee, no additional Option grants shall be made to any Participant during such Participant’s leave of absence.

(h)    Secondments

If a Participant is seconded to an entity other than a Subsidiary, the HRC Committee (in the case of Participants that report directly to the CEO) and the CEO (in the case of all other Participants) shall determine the manner in which all Options, vested and unvested, held by the Participant as at the date of the secondment shall be treated under the Plan.

(i)    Change of Control

In the event of a Change of Control, all unvested Options held by a Participant shall vest on a date, as determined by the HRC Committee, that is not more than
30 days and not less than five days prior to the date of the Change of Control.

(j)    No Future Grants; No Cash Payment

Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events listed under subsections 7(a) to (f) in respect of a Participant, such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any further Option grants or the value of any grants foregone as a consequence of any such event and, except as set forth herein, shall not be entitled to receive any cash payment for the value of any unexercised Options, vested or unvested, held by the Participant as at the date of occurrence of such event.

(b)    The appropriate adjustments in the number of Shares under Option, the Grant

or the Board may make appropriate adjustment in the manner in which installments of the Options become exercisable prior to such assumption. If, in the event of any such Reorganization, provision for such assumption satisfactory to the HRC Committee or the Board is not made by the surviving or continuing corporation, each Participant shall have distributed to him or her within 30 days after the Reorganization in full satisfaction in the case of an unexpired Option, or part thereof, whether or not exercisable, cash
