EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

Between:

 

RAVICHANDRA K. SALIGRAM

 

(the “Executive”)

 

And:

 

RITCHIE BROS. AUCTIONEERS (CANADA) LTD.,

a corporation incorporated under the laws of
Canada

 

(the “Employer”)

 

WHEREAS:

 

A. The Employer is in the business of facilitating the
exchange, buying, selling and auctioneering of industrial equipment; and

 

B. The Employer and the Executive wish to enter into
an employment relationship on the terms and conditions as described in this Agreement;

 

NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSES
THAT in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for other
good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by both parties, the Employer and the Executive
agree as follows:

 

		1.	EMPLOYMENT

 

		a.	The Employer agrees to employ
                                         the Executive pursuant to the terms and conditions described in this Agreement, including
                                         the appendices to this Agreement, and the Executive hereby accepts and agrees to such
                                         employment. Unless otherwise defined, the defined terms in this Agreement will have the
                                         same meaning in the appendices hereto.

 

		b.	The Executive’s employment under this Agreement is conditional
                                         on the Executive Obtaining, authorization and documentation to legally work in Canada
                                         (“Work Authorization”). It is a condition of the Executive’s
                                         continued employment that the Executive maintain the necessary Work Authorization to
                                         work in Canada throughout the duration of the Executive’s employment. The parties
                                         agree to work together on a best efforts basis to obtain from the appropriate Canadian
                                         governmental authorities, and maintain, such Work Authorization. If the Executive is
                                         unable to obtain the Work Authorization, or if the Executive is subsequently unable to
                                         renew the Work Authorization, the Employer will offer the Executive employment in the
                                         United States, subject to a revised US employment agreement containing substantially
                                         the same terms and consistent with the offer letter signed by the Executive, on the condition
                                         that the Executive’s employment under the US employment agreement will be for a
                                         fixed term of 15 months and the Executive will cooperate with the Employer to obtain
                                         the Work Authorization to resume work in Canada prior to the end of the fixed term. The
                                         Executive agrees that prior to the expiry of the term of the US employment agreement,
                                         he will accept continued employment in Canada on the terms of this Agreement, which will
                                         supersede the US employment agreement.

		c.	The Executive will be employed in the position of Chief
                                         Executive Officer in accordance with the duties and responsibilities set out in the
                                         attached Appendix “A”, and such other duties and responsibilities
                                         consistent with his position as may be assigned by the Board of Directors of the Employer
                                         (the “Board”) from time to time. The Executive will
                                         be the senior-most officer of the Employer with overall responsibility for the business
                                         and operations of the Employer, and all employees of the Employer will report either
                                         directly, or indirectly though others, to the Executive.

 

		d.	The
                                         Executive’s employment with the Employer will commence on the later of July 7, 2014
                                         or the date on which the Executive obtains authorization
                                         to work in Canada (the “Commencement Date”), and the Executive’s
                                         employment hereunder will continue for an indefinite period of time until terminated
                                         in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or applicable law (the “Term”).

 

		e.	On or about the Commencement Date, the Executive will be appointed
                                         as a member of the Board. Thereafter, during the Term, the Executive will be nominated
                                         to continue as a director at each annual meeting of shareholders that occurs during the
                                         Term, for a term equal to that of other directors being nominated at such meeting.

 

		f.	During the Term, the Executive will at all times:

 

		i.	well and faithfully serve the
                                         Employer, and act honestly and in good faith in the best interests of the Employer;

 

		ii.	devote all of the Executive’s
                                         business time, attention and abilities, and provide his best efforts, expertise, skills
                                         and talents, to the business of the Employer, except as provided in Section 2(b);

 

		iii.	adhere to all generally applicable
                                         written policies of the Employer, and obey and observe to the best of the Executive’s
                                         abilities all lawful orders and directives, whether verbal or written, of the Board;

 

		iv.	act lawfully and professionally, and exercise the degree of
                                         care, diligence and skill that a chief executive officer would exercise in comparable
                                         circumstances; and

 

		v.	to the best of the Executive’s abilities perform the
                                         duties and exercise the responsibilities required of the Executive under this Agreement.

 

		2.	PRIOR
                                         COMMITMENTS AND OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES

 

		a.	The Executive represents and warrants to the Employer that
                                         the Executive has no existing common law, contractual or statutory obligations to his
                                         former employer or to any other person that will conflict with the Executive’s
                                         duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

 

		b.	During the term of this Agreement, the Executive will not
                                         be engaged directly or indirectly in any outside business activities, whether for profit
                                         or not-for-profit, as principal, partner, director, officer, active shareholder, advisor,
                                         employee or otherwise, without first having obtained the written permission of the Employer.
                                         Subject to any conflict and the needs of the Employer, the Employer consents to the Executives’
                                         board appointments as listed in Appendix “B”.

		3.	POLICIES

 

		a.	The Executive agrees to comply with all generally applicable
                                         written policies applying to the Employer’s staff that may reasonably be issued
                                         by the Employer from time to time. The Executive agrees that the introduction, amendment
                                         and administration of such generally applicable written policies are within the sole
                                         discretion of the Employer. If the Employer introduces, amends or deletes such generally
                                         applicable written policies, such introduction, deletion or amendment will not constitute
                                         a constructive dismissal or breach of this Agreement. If there is a direct conflict between
                                         this Agreement and any such policy, this Agreement will prevail to the extent of the
                                         inconsistency.

 

		4.	SIGN-ON GRANT

 

		a.	Subject to any applicable blackout periods pertaining to trading
                                         in common shares of the Employer by “Insiders” (as defined under applicable
                                         securities laws and regulations), the Executive will receive a USD$5,000,000 sign-on
                                         grant upon the later of the Commencement Date and the lifting of the applicable blackout
                                         period, comprised as follows:

 

		i.	50%
                                         of the Sign-On Grant will be provided to the Executive
                                         through a grant of stock options, which will vest at a rate of 20% per year, starting
                                         on the first anniversary of the grant date, with a term often years (the “SOG
                                         Options”); and

 

		ii.	50%
                                         of the Sign-On Grant will be provided to the Executive
                                         through a grant of performance share units, which will become eligible for vesting at
                                         a rate of 25% per year starting on the second anniversary of the grant date, with the
                                         actual number of units to vest to be determined based on achievement of pre-established
                                         performance criteria (the “SOG PSUs”), including:

 

		(1)	The actual number of units to vest will be determined by the
                                         Board of Directors of the Employer based on absolute Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”)
                                         performance over the applicable rolling two, three, four and five year periods.

For example:

 

	 	 	TSR	 	 	PSU Payout % *	 
	 	 	(CAGR)	 	 	(% of target units)	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Threshold	 	 	5	 	 	 	0	%
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Tare	 	 	15	%	 	 	100	%
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Maximum	 	 	20	%	 	 	200	%

 *
Results interpolated between the points

CAGR = Compound Annual Growth Rate

 

		(2)	The TSR measure
                                         under the SOG PSUs reflects the compound annual return over the applicable performance
                                         period using values at the beginning and end of the performance period based on the prior
                                         20-trading day average and based on reinvestment of any dividends paid on the common
                                         shares during the period into additional common shares.

		(3)	Consideration
                                         will be given to enhancing the vesting from prior tranches based on subsequent performance
                                         experienced for later tranches.

 

		(4)	If the Executive
                                         becomes a Canadian tax filer, the SOG PSUs may be provided in the form of performance
                                         deferred share units (“PDSUs”) to avoid adverse tax treatment. The
                                         PDSUs will defer payment (and taxes) until the Executive leaves the Employer (assuming
                                         units have vested in accordance with the provisions set out above).

 

		5.	COMPENSATION

 

		a.	Upon
                                         the Commencement Date, and continuing during the Term, the Executive will earn the following
                                         annual compensation, less applicable statutory and regular payroll deductions and withholdings:

 

	Compensation	 	
	Element	 	$US
	 	 	 
	Annual Base Salary	 	$1,000,000 (the
    “Base Salary”)
	 	 	 
	Annual Short-Term Incentive	 	100% of Base salary at Target (the
        “STI Bonus”)

        (0% - 200%) of Base Salary based on
        actual         performance)

	 	 	 
	Annual Long-Term Incentive Grant	 	250% of
    Base Salary at Target (the “LTI Grant”)
	 	 	 
	Target Total Direct Compensation	 	$54,500,000

 

		b.	For 2014, the Executive will
                                         earn the Base Salary, at target STI Bonus and at target LTI Grant, commencing on the
                                         Commencement Date, prorated to the length of service within 2014.

 

		c.	The structure of the STI Bonus
                                         and LTI Grant will be consistent with those granted to the Employer’s other executives,
                                         and is subject to amendments from time to time by the Employer. Currently, LTI grants
                                         for executives are provided as follows:

 

		i.	33% in stock options, with a ten-year
                                         term, vesting in equal one-third parts after the first, second and third anniversaries
                                         of the grant date;

 

		ii.	33% in restricted share units, with cliff vesting on the third
                                         anniversary of the grant date.

 

		iii.	33% in performance share units,
                                         vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date based on meeting pre-established performance
                                         criteria (currently based on EBITDA and ROIC targets), with the number of share units
                                         that ultimately vest ranging from 0% to 200% of target based on actual performance.

		d.	The specific terms and conditions for the LTI Grant (including
                                         but not limited to the provisions upon termination of employment) will be based on the
                                         relevant plan documents and may be subject to amendments from time to time by the Employer.
                                         As an exception, notwithstanding provisions to the contrary in the plan documents, any
                                         accelerated vesting upon a Change of Control will require both a Change of Control and
                                         the termination of employment without Cause or for Good Reason (i.e. acceleration will
                                         require a double-trigger).

 

		e.	Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement to
                                         the contrary, the Executive will be subject to any clawback/recoupment policy of the
                                         Employer in effect from time-to-time, allowing the recovery of incentive compensation
                                         previously paid or payable to the Executive in cases of misconduct or material financial
                                         restatement, whether pursuant to the requirements of Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
                                         the Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of any national securities
                                         exchange on which common stock of the Employer is listed, or otherwise.

                                         does not adversely affect the Executive’s position or authority as the senior-most
                                         executive of the Employer with all employees either reporting directly, or indirectly
                                         through others, to the Executive, or (2) the inability or failure of the Executive to

                                         Employer’s clients, customers and employees, and that the Employer’s goodwill depends
                                         on the development and maintenance of such relationships. The Executive acknowledges
                                         that the preservation of the Employer’s goodwill and the protection of its relationships
                                         with its customers and employees are proprietary rights that the Employer is entitled

		b.	The Executive will not during the Applicable Period, whether

                                         which is the same as or competitive with the business of the Employer in the area of

                                         16 of this Agreement are, in view of the nature of the Employer’s business, reasonable
                                         and necessary in order to protect the legitimate interests of the Employer and that any
                                         violation of those Sections would result in irreparable injuries and harm to the Employer,
                                         and that damages alone would be an inadequate remedy.

 

		b.	The Executive

                                         performance and other equitable relief to prevent a breach or recurrence of a breach
                                         of this Agreement and that the Employer will be entitled to its reasonable legal costs
                                         and expenses, on a solicitor and client basis, incurred in properly enforcing a provision
                                         of this Agreement.

 

		c.	Nothing contained
                                         herein will be construed as a waiver of any of the rights that the Employer may have
                                         for damages or otherwise.

 

		d.	The Executive
                                         and the Employer expressly agree that the provisions of Sections 11 g. iii., 12, 13,
                                         14, 15, 16, and 23 of this Agreement will survive the termination of the Executive’s
                                         employment for any reason.

 

		18.	GOVERNING LAW

		a.	All sections,
                                         paragraphs and covenants contained in this Agreement are severable, and in the event
                                         that any of them will be held to be invalid, unenforceable or void by a court of a competent
                                         jurisdiction, such sections, paragraphs or covenants will be severed and the remainder

		b.	In the event
                                         that this Agreement provides a lesser benefit to the Executive than the minimum standard
                                         contained in any applicable legislation, the minimum standard contained in such legislation

		b.	Mediation -
                                         If the parties are unable to negotiate resolution of a dispute, either party may refer
                                         the dispute to mediation by providing written notice to the other party. If the parties
                                         cannot agree on a mediator within thirty (30) days of receipt of the notice to mediate,
                                         then either party may make application to the British Columbia Arbitration and Mediation
                                         Society to have one appointed. The mediation will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia,

		c.	Arbitration
                                         - If, after mediation, the parties have been unable to resolve a dispute and the mediator
                                         has been inactive for more than 90 days, or such other period agreed to in writing by
                                         the parties, either party may refer the dispute for final and binding arbitration by
                                         providing written notice to the other party. If the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator
                                         within thirty (30) days of receipt of the notice to arbitrate, then either party may make
                                         application to the British Columbia Arbitration and Mediation Society to appoint one.
                                         The arbitration will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, in accordance with the BCICAC’s

		a.	Payments
                                         and benefits provided under or referenced in this Agreement are intended to be designed
                                         in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with,

                                         and shall be construed, administered and interpreted in accordance with such intention.
                                         If, as of the date of the Executive’s termination,
                                         the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A,
                                         then to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A and to avoid the imposition
                                         of taxes and/or penalties under Section 409A, payment to the Executive of any amount

                                         constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A and which
                                         under the terms of this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program or arrangement
                                         would otherwise be payable as a result of and within six (6) months following such termination
                                         shall be delayed, as provided under current regulatory requirements under Section 409A,
                                         until the earlier of (i) five (5) days after the Employer receives notification of the
                                         Executive’s death or (ii) the first business day of the seventh month following the date
                                         of the Executive’s termination.

 

		b.	Any payment
                                         or benefit under this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program or agreement that
                                         constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation and that is payable upon a termination
                                         of the Executive’s employment shall only be paid or provided to the Executive upon a
                                         “separation from service”. If the Executive or the Employer determine that
                                         any payment, benefit, distribution, deferral election, or any other action or arrangement
                                         contemplated by the provisions of this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program
                                         or agreement would, if undertaken or implemented, cause the Executive to become subject
                                         to taxes and/or penalties under Section 409A, then such payment, benefit, distribution,
                                         deferral election or other action or arrangement shall not be given effect to the extent
                                         it causes such result and the related provisions of this Agreement or other Employer
                                         plan, program or agreement will be deemed modified in order to provide the Executive
                                         with the intended economic benefit and comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

                                         indemnity provided for in this Section 2.1 will only be available if:

 

		(i)	the Indemnified

                                         or the Interested Corporation, as the case may be; and

                                         a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty,
                                         the Indemnified Party had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful.

 

		(b)	Indemnity
                                         in Derivative Claims etc. - in respect of any action by or on behalf of the Corporation

                                         Party, in respect of which the Indemnified Party is made a party by reason of the Indemnified
                                         Party acting or having acted as a director or officer of or otherwise associated with
                                         the Corporation or the Interested Corporation, the Corporation will, with the approval
                                         of a court of competent jurisdiction, indemnify and save the Indemnified Party harmless

                                         in connection with such action to the same extent as provided or in Section 2.1 provided
                                         the Indemnified Party fulfils the conditions set out in Section 2.1(a)(i) and 2.1(a)(ii)
                                         above.

                                         as of Right - notwithstanding anything herein, the Corporation will indemnify and
                                         save the Indemnified Party harmless in respect of all costs, charges and expenses reasonably
                                         incurred by him in connection with the defence of any civil, criminal, administrative
                                         or investigative action or proceeding to which the Indemnified Party is subject because
                                         of his acting or having acted as a director or officer of or otherwise associated with
                                         the Corporation or the Interested Corporation, if the Indemnified Party:

 

    Page 22 of 36

     

    

 

		(i)	was not judged
                                         by a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything
                                         that the individual ought to have done; and

 

		(ii)	fulfils the conditions

		(d)	Incidental
                                         Expenses - except to the extent such costs, charges, expenses, fees or liabilities
                                         are paid by an Interested Corporation, the Corporation will pay or reimburse the Indemnified
                                         Party for reasonable travel, lodging or accommodation costs, charges or expenses paid
                                         or incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in carrying out his duties as a
                                         director or officer of the Corporation or the Interested Corporation, whether or not
                                         incurred in connection with any Claim.

all costs, charges, expenses, fees, fines, penalties, losses, damages or liabilities arising by operation of statute, rule, regulation
or ordinance and incurred by or imposed upon the Indemnified Party in relation to the affairs of the Corporation or the Interested
Corporation by reason of the Indemnified Party acting or having acted as a director or officer thereof, including but not limited

hereunder will include any amount which the Indemnified Party may be required to pay on account of applicable income, goods
or services or other taxes or levies arising out of the payment of such indemnity or reimbursement such that the amount
received by or paid on behalf of the Indemnified Party, after payment of any such taxes or other levies, is equal to the
amount required to pay and fully indemnify the Indemnified Party for such costs, charges, expenses, fees, losses, damages or
liabilities, provided however that any amount required to be paid with respect to such taxes or other levies will be payable
by the Corporation only upon the Indemnified Party remitting or being required to remit any amount payable on account of such
taxes or other levies.

 

		2.4	Partial Indemnification

 

If
the Indemnified Party is determined to be entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Corporation
for some or a portion of the costs, charges, expenses, fees, losses, damages or liabilities incurred in respect of any Claim but

threatened Claim from the Indemnified Party, the Corporation may, and upon the written request of the Indemnified Party will,
promptly assume conduct of the defence thereof and retain counsel on behalf of the Indemnified Party who is reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, to represent the Indemnified Party in respect of the Claim. If the Corporation assumes
conduct of the defence on behalf of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party hereby consents to the conduct thereof and
of any action taken by the Corporation, in good faith, in connection therewith and the Indemnified Party will fully cooperate
in such defence including, without limitation, the provision of documents, attending examinations for discovery, making
affidavits, meeting with counsel, testifying and divulging to the Corporation all information reasonably required to defend
or prosecute the Claim.

 

		3.3	Separate Counsel

 

In connection
with any Claim in respect of which the Indemnified Party may be entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the Indemnified Party will
have the right to employ separate counsel of the Indemnified Party’s choosing and to participate in the defence thereof but the
fees and disbursements of such counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnified Party (for
which the Indemnified Party will not be entitled to claim from the Corporation) unless:

		(a)	the Indemnified
                                         Party reasonably determines that there are legal defences available to the Indemnified
                                         Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Corporation or
                                         the Interested Corporation, as the case may be, or that a conflict of interest exists
                                         which makes representation by counsel chosen by the Corporation not advisable;

 

		(b)	the Corporation
                                         has not assumed the defence of the Claim and employed counsel therefor reasonably satisfactory
                                         to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of time after receiving notice thereof;
                                         or

 

		(c)	employment
                                         of such other counsel has been authorized by the Corporation;

 

in which event the reasonable fees
and disbursements of such counsel will be paid by the Corporation, subject to the terms hereof.

 

		3.4	No Presumption as to Absence of Good Faith

 

Unless a court of competent
jurisdiction otherwise has held or decided that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder, in full or
in part, the determination of any Claim by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or
its equivalent, will not, of itself, create any presumption for the purposes of this Agreement that the Indemnified Party is
not entitled to indemnity hereunder.

 

		3.5	Settlement of Claim

 

No admission of liability and no
settlement of any Claim in a manner adverse to the Indemnified Party will be made without the consent of the Indemnified Party,
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. No admission of liability will be made by the Indemnified Party without the consent
of the Corporation and the Corporation will not be liable for any settlement of any Claim made without its consent, such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld.

 

ARTICLE 4

INDEMNITY PAYMENTS,
ADVANCES AND INSURANCE

 

		4.1	Court Approvals

 

If the payment of an indemnity hereunder requires
the approval of a court under the provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act or otherwise, either of the Corporation
or, failing the Corporation, the Indemnified Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for an order approving the indemnity
of the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement.

 

		4.2	Advances

 

		(a)	If the Board
                                         of Directors of the Corporation has determined, in good faith and based on the representations
                                         made to it by the Indemnified Party, that the Indemnified Party is or may to be entitled
                                         to indemnity hereunder in respect of any Claim, the Corporation will, at the request
                                         of the Indemnified Party, either pay such amount to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party
                                         by way of indemnity or, if the Board of Directors is unwilling to pay or is unable to
                                         determine if it is entitled to pay that amount by way of indemnity, then the Corporation
                                         will advance to the Indemnified Party sufficient funds, or arrange to pay on behalf of
                                         or reimburse the Indemnified Party any costs, charges, expenses, retainers or legal fees
                                         incurred or paid by the Indemnified Party in respect to such Claim.

		(b)	Any advance
                                         made by the Corporation under Section 4.2(a) will be treated as a loan to the Indemnified
                                         Party, pending approval by the Board of Directors of the payment thereof as an indemnity
                                         and advanced to or for the benefit of the Indemnified Party on such terms and conditions
                                         as the Board of Directors may prescribe which may include interest, the provision of
                                         security or a guarantee or indemnity therefor. Notwithstanding the generality of the
                                         foregoing, the terms of any such advance will provide that in the event it is ultimately
                                         determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Indemnified Party is not entitled
                                         to be indemnified in respect of any amount for which an advance was made, or that the
                                         Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified for the full amount advanced, or
                                         the Indemnified Party has received insurance or other compensation or reimbursement payments
                                         from any insurer or third party in respect of the same subject matter, such advance,
                                         or the appropriate portion thereof, will be repaid to the Corporation, on demand.

 

		4.3	Other Rights and Remedies Unaffected

 

The indemnification and payment
provided in this Agreement will not derogate from or exclude and will incorporate any other rights to which the Indemnified Party
may be entitled under any provision of the CBCA or otherwise at law, the Articles or By-Laws of the Corporation, the constating
documents of any Interested Corporation, any applicable policy of insurance, guarantee or third-party indemnity, any vote of shareholders
of the Corporation, or otherwise, both as to matters arising out of his capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation,

for the benefit of the Indemnified Party (or a rider, extension or modification of such policy to extend the time within which
a Claim would be required to be reported by the Indemnified Party under such policy after the Indemnified Party has ceased to
be a director or officer) on terms no less favourable than the maximum coverage in place while the Indemnified Party served as
a director or officer of the Corporation or as the Corporation maintains in existence for its then serving directors and officers
and provided such insurance or additional coverage is available on commercially reasonable terms and premiums therefor.

 

		4.5	Notification of Transactions

 

The Corporation will immediately
notify the Indemnified Party upon the Corporation entering into or resolving to carry out any arrangement, amalgamation, winding-up
or any other transaction or series of transactions which may result in the Corporation ceasing to exist as a legal entity or substantially
impairing its ability to fulfill its obligations hereunder and, in any event, will give written notice not less than 21 days
prior to the date on which such transaction or series of transactions are expected to be carried out or completed.

 

		4.6	Arrangements to Satisfy Obligations Hereunder

 

The Corporation will not carry out or complete any transaction
contemplated by Section 4.5, unless and until the Corporation has made adequate arrangements, satisfactory to the Indemnified
Party, acting reasonably, to fulfill its obligations hereunder, which arrangements may include, without limitation, the assumption
of any liability hereunder by any successor to the assets or business of the Company or the prepayment of any premium for any
insurance contemplated in Section 4.4.

 

    Page 26 of 36

     

    

 

		4.7	Payments or Compensation from Third Parties

 

The Indemnified Party, before claiming
indemnification or reimbursement under this Agreement, will use reasonable efforts to make claims under any applicable insurance
policy or arrangements maintained or made available by the Corporation or the Interested Corporation in respect of the relevant
matter. If the Indemnified Party receives any payment under any insurance policy or other arrangements maintained or made available
by the Corporation or the Interested Corporation in respect of any costs, charges, expenses, fees, damages or liabilities which
have been paid to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party by the Corporation pursuant to indemnification under this Agreement, the
Indemnified Party will pay back to the Corporation an amount equal to the amount so paid to or on behalf of the Indemnified
Party by the Corporation.

B.   The Board recognizes

disturbing circumstances that could arise from a possible change in control of the Parent Company;

 

C.    The Board further
believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, in the event of a change of control of the Parent
Company, to maintain the cohesiveness of the Company’s senior management team so as to ensure a successful transition, maximize
shareholder value and maintain the performance of the Company;

 

D.    The Board further
believes that the service of the Executive to the Company requires that the Executive receive fair treatment in the event of a
change in control of the Parent Company; and

 

E.     In
order to induce the Executive to remain in the employ of the Company notwithstanding a possible change of control, the
Company has agreed to provide to the Executive certain benefits in the event of a change of control.

 

NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the premises and the
covenants herein contained on the part of the parties hereto and in consideration of the Executive continuing in office and in
the employment of the Company, the Company and the Executive hereby covenant and agree as follows:

		d.	During the Term, the Executive will at all times:

 

    	 	Page 1 of 33

     

    

 

		i.	well and faithfully serve the Employer, and act honestly
and in good faith in the best interests of the Employer;

 

		ii.	devote all of the Executive’s business time, attention
and abilities, and provide his best efforts, expertise, skills and talents, to the business of the Employer, except as provided
in Section 2(b);

 

		iii.	adhere to all generally applicable written policies of the Employer, and obey and observe to the
                                                                                                     best of the Executive’s abilities all lawful orders and directives, whether verbal or written, of the Board;

written policies applying to the Employer’s staff that may reasonably be issued by the Employer from time to time. The Executive
agrees that the introduction, amendment and administration of such generally applicable written policies are within the sole discretion
of the Employer. If the Employer introduces, amends or deletes such generally applicable written policies, such introduction,
deletion or amendment will not constitute a constructive dismissal or breach of this Agreement. If there is a direct conflict
between this Agreement and any such policy, this Agreement will prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

 

		4.	SIGN-ON GRANT

 

		a.	Subject to any applicable
blackout periods pertaining to trading in common shares of the RBA Pubco (as defined below)

the applicable blackout period, and subject to the RBA Pubco’s normal governance policies, which will cliff vest on the
third anniversary of the grant date, with a term of ten years (the “SOG Options”).

 

    	 	Page 2 of 33

     

    

 

		5.	COMPENSATION

 

		a.	Upon the Commencement Date, and continuing during the
Term, the Executive will earn the following annual compensation, less applicable statutory and regular payroll deductions and
withholdings:

 

	Compensation	 	 
	Element	 	$US
	 	 	 
	Annual Base Salary	 	$540,000 (the
    “Base Salary”)
	 	 	 
	Annual Short-Term	 	75% of Base Salary
    at Target (the “STI Bonus”)
	Incentive	 	(0% - 200% of Base Salary based on actual performance)
	 	 	 
	Annual Long-Term	 	140% of Base Salary
    at Target (the “LTI Grant”)
	Incentive Grant	 	 

 

The Employer shall review the Executive’s compensation
package for increase no less frequently than annually, starting in 2016.

 

		b.	The structure of the STI Bonus and LTI Grant will be
consistent with those granted to the RBA Pubco’s other executives, and is subject to amendments from time to time by the
Employer. Currently, LTI grants for executives are provided as follows:

 

		i.	33% in stock options, with a ten-year term (and in the
form of incentive stock options to the extent possible in light of Internal Revenue Code limitations and the balance in the form
of nonqualified stock options), with all such options vesting in equal one-third parts after the first, second and third anniversaries
of the grant date;

 

		ii.	33% in restricted share units, with cliff vesting on
the third anniversary of the grant date.

 

		iii.	33% in performance share units, vesting on the third
anniversary of the grant date based on meeting pre-established performance criteria (currently based on EBITDA and ROlC targets),
with the number of share units that ultimately vest ranging from 0% to 200% of target based on actual performance.

 

		c.	For 2014, the Executive will earn the Base Salary and
at target STI Bonus prorated to the length of service within 2014 with no upside or downside, and 25% of the target annual LTI
Grant amount, with such LTI Grant issued at the same time as the SOG Options described above.

 

		d.	For 2015, the Executive will earn the Base Salary and
at target STI Bonus with no upside or downside.

 

		e.	The specific terms and conditions for the LTI Grant (including
but not limited to the provisions upon termination of employment) will be based on the relevant plan documents and may be subject
to amendments from time to time by RBA Pubco. As an exception, notwithstanding provisions to the contrary in the plan documents,
any accelerated vesting upon a Change of Control will require both a Change of Control and the termination of employment without
Cause or for Good Reason (i.e. acceleration will require a double-trigger).

 

    	 	Page 3 of 33

     

    

 

		f.	Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement
to the contrary, the Executive will be subject to any clawback/recoupment policy of the Employer in effect from time-to-time,
allowing the recovery of incentive compensation previously paid or payable to the Executive in cases of misconduct or material
financial restatement, whether pursuant to the requirements of Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and the Consumer Protection Act,
the listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which common stock of RBA Pubco is listed, or otherwise.

 

		g.	In the event of a restatement of the financial results
of Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Incorporated (“RBA Pubco”) (other than due to a change in applicable accounting rules
or interpretations), the Board of Directors of RBA Pubco (the “Board”) shall determine whether any performance-based
compensation (pursuant to both short-term and long-term incentive compensation plans) paid or awarded to the Executive during
the three years preceding such restatement (the “Awarded Compensation”), would have been a lower amount had it been
calculated based on such restated financial statement (such lower amount being referred to herein as the “Adjusted Compensation”).
If the Board determines that the Awarded Compensation exceeds the Adjusted Compensation, then the Board may demand from the Executive
the recovery of any excess of the Awarded Compensation over the Adjusted Compensation, and the Executive shall immediately forfeit
and/or repay, as applicable, any such amount.

 

		6.	BENEFITS

 

		a.	The Executive will be eligible to participate in the
Employer’s US group benefit plans, subject to the terms and conditions of said plans and the applicable policies of the
Employer and applicable benefits providers. Subject to the Executive’s eligibility, such benefits will include, without
limitation, United States medical coverage satisfying the minimum essential coverage requirements under the United States Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act, short-term and long-term disability coverage, and term life insurance.

 

		b.	The liability of the Employer with respect to the Executive’s
employment benefits is limited to the premiums or portions of the premiums the Employer regularly pays on behalf of the Executive
in connection with said employee benefits. The Executive agrees that the Employer is not, and will not be deemed to be, the insurer
and, for greater certainty, the Executive will not be liable for any decision of a third-party benefits provider or insurer, including
any decision to deny coverage or any other decision that affects the Executive’s benefits or msurance.

 

		c.	The Employer will reimburse the Executive for up to $15,000
in 2014, and up to $5,000 per annum in 2015 and thereafter, for expenses related to professional advice concerning the completion
of the Employment Agreement, and tax planning and compliance. Reimbursement for completion of the Employment Agreement shall be

		11.	TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

 

		a.	Termination
                                         for cause: The Employer may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time
                                         for Cause, after providing Executive with at least 30 days’ notice of such proposed
                                         termination and 15 days to remedy the alleged defect. In this Agreement, “Cause”
                                         means the wilful and continued failure by the Executive to substantially perform, or
                                         otherwise properly carry out, the Executive’s duties on behalf of RBA Pubco or
                                         an affiliate, or to follow, in any material respect, the lawful policies, procedures,
                                         instructions or directions of the Employer or any applicable affiliate (other than any
                                         such failure resulting from the Executive’s disability or incapacity due to physical
                                         or mental illness), or the Executive wilfully or intentionally engaging in illegal or
                                         fraudulent conduct, financial impropriety, intentional dishonesty, breach of duty of
                                         loyalty or any similar intentional act which is materially injurious RBA Pubco or an
                                         affiliate, or which may have the effect of materially injuring the reputation, business
                                         or business relationships of the Employer or an affiliate, or any other act or omission
                                         constituting cause for termination of employment without notice or pay in lieu of notice
                                         at common law. For the purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the
                                         part of a Executive shall be considered “wilful” unless done, or omitted
                                         to be done, by the Executive in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive’s
                                         action or omissions were in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Employer and
                                         its affiliates.

 

In the event of termination for Cause, all unvested stock options
granted to the Executive pursuant to the terms of the RBA Pubco’s Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”), including
all SOG Options issued under the Sign-On Grant, will immediately be void on the date the Employer notifies the Executive of such
termination. The Executive will have 30 days from the date of termination to exercise any options which have vested prior to the
date of termination, subject to the terms and conditions of the Option Plan and the applicable individual option agreements.

 

In the event of termination for Cause, the rights of the Executive
with respect to any performance share units (“PSUs”) and restricted share units (“RSUs”) granted pursuant
to the RBA Pubco’s Performance Share Unit Plan (the “PSU Plan”) and Restricted Share Unit Plan (the “RSU
Plan”), respectively, and pursuant to any and all PSU and RSU grant agreements, respectively, will be governed pursuant to
the PSU Plan and RSU Plan, respectively.

 

		b.	Termination
                                         for Good Reason: The Executive may terminate his employment with the Employer for
                                         Good Reason by delivery of written notice to the Employer within the sixty (60) day period
                                         commencing upon the occurrence of Good Reason including the basis for such Good Reason
                                         (with such termination effective thirty (30) days after such written notice is delivered
                                         to the Employer and only in the event that the Employer fails or is unable to cure such
                                         Good Reason within such thirty (30) day period). In the event of a termination of the
                                         Executive’s employment for Good Reason, the Executive will receive pay and benefits
                                         as if terminated by the Employer without Cause under Section 11 c., below, and the termination
                                         shall be regarded as a termination without Cause for purposes of the Option Plan, the
                                         PSU Plan, and the RSU Plan. In this Agreement, “Good Reason” means
                                         a material adverse change by RBA Pubco or an affiliate, without the Executive’s
                                         consent, to the Executive’s position, authority, duties, responsibilities, Executive’s
                                         place of residence, Base Salary or the potential short-term or long-term incentive bonus
                                         the Executive is eligible to earn, but does not include (1) a change in the Executive’s
                                         duties and/or responsibilities arising from a change in the scope or nature of RBA Pubco’s
                                         business operations, provided such change does not adversely affect the Executive’s
                                         position or authority, (2) a change across the board affecting similar executives in
                                         a similar fashion, or (3) the inability or failure, for whatever reason, of the Executive
                                         to be able to work as needed periodically in British Columbia.

                                         without Cause: The Employer may terminate the Executive’s employment at any
                                         time, without Cause by providing the Executive with the following:

 

		i.	Prior to the expiry of 36 months of the Term:

		(3)	immediate accelerated vesting of all unvested stock options,
with the Executive having 90 days from the date of termination to exercise such options, subject to the terms and conditions of
the Option Plan and the applicable individual option agreements; and

 

		(4)	continued extended health and dental benefits coverage
at active employee rates until the earlier of the first anniversary of the termination of the Executive’s employment or
the date on which the Executive begins new full-time employment, or paying for such period of time the Employer’s share
of the costs of such benefits.

 

		ii.	After the first 36 months of the Term:

 

		(1)	eighteen (18) months’ Base Salary plus eighteen
(18) months’ at-target STI Bonus;

 

		(2)	continuation of all applicable PSU and RSU rights held
by the Executive in accordance with the applicable PSU and RSU grant agreements, and the terms and conditions of the respective
PSU Plan and RSU Plan;

of the costs of such benefits.

 

		d.	Resignation: The Executive may terminate his employment
with the Employer at any time by providing the Employer with three (3) months’ notice in writing to that effect. If the
Executive provides the Employer with written notice under this Section, the Employer may waive such notice, in whole or in part,
in which case the Employer will pay the Executive the Base Salary only for the amount of time remaining in that notice period
and the Executive’s employment will terminate on the earlier date specified by the Employer without any further compensation.

 

In the event of termination by the Executive as provided in
this section, all unvested stock options and SaG Options held by the Executive will immediately be void on the termination date
of the Executive’s employment, with the Executive having 90 days from said date to exercise any vested stock options and
SOG Options held by the Executive. The rights of the Executive with respect to any PSUs or RSUs will be as set forth in the PSU
Plan and RSU Plan with respect to termination by the Executive.

 

		e.	Retirement: In the event of the Executive’s
retirement, as defined by the Employer’s policies, all unvested stock options and SOG Options will continue to vest according
to their initial grant schedules and will remain exercisable up to the earlier of the original grant expiry date and the third
anniversary of the date of retirement; provided, however, that for purposes of any award subject to Section 409A (as defined below),
any termination (other than a termination for cause) after Executive’s attainment of retirement age shall be governed by
the retirement provisions of such award.

                                                                                                                                        (ii), the Employer will pay the Executive all earned and unpaid Base Salary, earned and unpaid vacation pay, earned and
                                                                                                                                        unpaid STI for a preceding year (if any remains unpaid), and a prorated STI Bonus for the year of termination, up to and

                                                                                                  c. of this Agreement, the Executive will not be entitled to any other payment in connection with the termination of the

		l.	Agreement
                                         authorizing payroll deductions: If, on the date the employment relationship ends,

		a.	The Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained
in Sections 11 h. iii., 13, 14, 15 and 16 of this Agreement are, in view of the nature of the Employer’s business, reasonable
and necessary in order to protect the legitimate interests of the Employer and that any violation of those Sections would result
in irreparable injuries and harm to the Employer, and that damages alone would be an inadequate remedy.

 

		b.	The Executive hereby agrees that the Employer will be
entitled to the remedies of injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent a breach or recurrence of a
breach of this Agreement and that the Employer will be entitled to its reasonable legal costs and expenses, including but not
limited to its attorneys’ fees, incurred in properly enforcing a provision of this Agreement.

 

		c.	Nothing contained herein will be construed as a waiver
of any of the rights that the Employer may have for damages or otherwise.

 

		d.	The Executive and the Employer expressly agree that the
provisions of Sections 11 h. iii., 13, 14, 15, 16, and 23 of this Agreement will survive the termination of the Executive’s
employment for any reason.

 

		18.	GOVERNING LAW

 

This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of
Washington without regard to any state’s conflict of laws principles.

		19.	SEVERABILITY

 

		a.	All sections, paragraphs and covenants contained in this
Agreement are severable, and in the event that any of them will be held to be invalid, unenforceable or void by a court of a competent
jurisdiction, such sections, paragraphs or covenants will be severed and the remainder of this Agreement will remain in full force
and effect.

 

		20.	ENTIRE AGREEMENT

 

		a.	This Agreement, including the Appendices, and any other
documents referenced herein, contains the complete agreement concerning the Executive’s employment by the Employer and will,
as of the date it is executed, supersede any and all other employment agreements between the parties.

 

		b.	The parties agree that there are no other contracts or
agreements between them, and that neither of them has made any representations, including but not limited to negligent misrepresentations,
to the other except such representations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and that any statements or representations
that may previously have been made by either of them to the other have not been relied on in connection with the execution of
this Agreement and are of no effect.

 

		c.	No waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement
or any covenant, condition or restriction herein contained will be valid unless executed in writing by the party to be charged
therewith, with the exception of those modifications expressly permitted within this Agreement. Should the parties agree to waive,
amend or modify any provision of this Agreement, such waiver, amendment or modification will not affect the enforceability of
any other provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employer may unilaterally amend the provisions of Section
11 c. relating to provision of certain health benefits following termination of employment to the extent the Employer deems necessary
to avoid the imposition of excise taxes, penalties or similar charges on the Employer or any of its Affiliates, including, without
limitation, under Section 4980D of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.

 

		21.	CONSIDERATION

 

		a.	The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement
has been executed by each of them in consideration of the mutual premises and covenants contained in this Agreement and for other

		23.	DISPUTE RESOLUTION

 

In the event of a dispute arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement, or in respect of any legal relationship associated with it or from it, which does not involve the Employer seeking
a court injunction or other injunctive or equitable relief to protect its business, confidential information or intellectual property,
that dispute will be resolved in strict confidence as follows:

 

		a.	Amicable Negotiation - The parties agree that, both during
and after the performance of their responsibilities under this Agreement, each of them will make bonafide efforts to resolve
any disputes arising between them via amicable negotiations;

 

		b.	Arbitration
                                         - If the parties have been unable to resolve a dispute for more than 90 days, or such
                                         other period agreed to in writing by the parties, either party may refer the dispute
                                         for final and binding arbitration by providing written notice to the other party. If
                                         the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of receipt of the notice
                                         to arbitrate, then either party may make application to the American Arbitration Association
                                         (the “AAA”) to appoint one. The arbitration will be held in Chicago,
                                         Illinois, in accordance with the AAA’ s rules, as applicable, and each party will
                                         bear its own costs, including one-half share of the arbitrator’s fees.

 

		24.	ENUREMENT

 

		a.	The provisions of this Agreement will enure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the parties, their heirs, executors, personal legal representatives and permitted assigns, and related
companies.

 

		b.	This Agreement may be assigned by the Employer in its
discretion, in which case the assignee shall become the Employer for purposes of this Agreement. This Agreement will not be assigned
by the Executive.

 

		25.	EFFECT OF SECTION 409A

 

		a.	Payments and benefits provided under or referenced in
this Agreement are intended to be designed in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with,
the requirements of, Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the regulations issued thereunder (collectively, as in
effect from time to time, “Section 409A”) and shall be construed, administered and interpreted in accordance with
such intention. If, as of the date of the Executive’s termination, the Executive is a “specified employee” within
the meaning of Section 409A, then to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A and to avoid the imposition of taxes and/or
penalties under Section 409A, payment to the Executive of any amount or benefit under this Agreement or any other Employer plan,
program or agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A and which under the
terms of this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program or arrangement would otherwise be payable as a result of and within
six (6) months following such termination shall be delayed, as provided under current regulatory requirements under Section 409A,
until the earlier of (i) five (5) days after the Employer receives notification of the Executive’s death or (ii) the first
business day of the seventh month following the date of the Executive’s termination.

 

    	 	Page 13 of 33

     

    

 

		b.	Any payment or benefit under this Agreement or any other
Employer plan, program or agreement that is payable upon a termination of the Executive’s employment shall only be paid
or provided to the Executive upon a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If the Executive
or the Employer determine that any payment, benefit, distribution, deferral election, or any other action or arrangement contemplated
by the provisions of this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program or agreement would, if undertaken or implemented, cause
the Executive to become subject to taxes and/or penalties under Section 409A, then such payment, benefit, distribution, deferral
election or other action or arrangement shall not be given effect to the extent it causes such result and the related provisions
of this Agreement or other Employer plan, program or agreement will be deemed modified in order to provide the Executive with
the intended economic benefit and comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

 

		c.	Each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated
as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a
series of separate and distinct payments.

 

    	 	Page 14 of 33

     

    

 

		d.	With regard to any provision in this Agreement that provides
for reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits, except for any expense, reimbursement or in-kind benefit provided pursuant
to this Agreement that does not constitute a “deferral of compensation,” within the meaning of Section 409A, (i) the
amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during any calendar year shall not affect the expenses
eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year, (ii) such payments shall be made on
or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred, and (iii) the right
to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

of the Indemnified Party so acting as a director or officer; and

		(a)	General Indemnity - Except as otherwise provided
herein, the Corporation agrees to indemnify and save the Indemnified Party harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, including
but not limited to that permitted under the CBCA, as the same exists on the date hereof or may hereafter be amended (but, in the

(including legal or other professional fees), without limitation, and whether incurred alone or jointly with others, which the
Indemnified Party may suffer, sustain, incur or be required to pay and which arise out of or in respect of any Claim which may
be brought, commenced, made, prosecuted or threatened against the Indemnified Party, the Corporation, the Interested Corporation
or any of the directors or officers of the Corporation or by reason of his acting or having acted as a director or officer of
the Corporation or Interested Corporation and any act, deed, matter or thing done, made or permitted by the Indemnified Party
or which the Indemnified Party failed or omitted to do arising out of, or in connection with the affairs of the Corporation or

be required to pay in connection with investigating, initiating, defending, appealing, preparing for, providing evidence in, instructing
and receiving the advice of counselor other professional advisor or otherwise, or any amount paid to settle any Claim or satisfy
any judgment, fine or penalty, provided, however, that the indemnity provided for in this Section 2.1 will only be available if:

 

		(i)	the Indemnified Party acted honestly and in good faith
with a view to the best interests of the Corporation or the Interested Corporation, as the case may be; and

 

		(ii)	in the case of a criminal or administrative action or
proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the Indemnified Party had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct
was lawful.

 

		(b)	Indemnity in Derivative Claims etc. - in respect
of any action by or on behalf of the Corporation or the Interested Corporation to procure a judgment in its favour against the
Indemnified Party, in respect of which the Indemnified Party is made a party by reason of the Indemnified Party acting or having

will, with the approval of a court of competent jurisdiction, indemnify and save the Indemnified Party harmless against all costs,
charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with such action to the same extent as provided
or in Section 2.1 provided the Indemnified Party fulfils the conditions set out in Section 2.1(a)(i) and 2.1(a)(ii) above.

 

		(c)	Indemnity as of Right - notwithstanding anything herein, the Corporation will indemnify
                                                                                                   and save the Indemnified Party harmless in respect of all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by him in
                                                                                                   connection with the defence of any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action or proceeding to which the
                                                                                                   Indemnified Party is subject because of his acting or having acted as a director or officer of or otherwise associated with
                                                                                                   the Corporation or the Interested Corporation, if the Indemnified Party:

 

    	 	Page 18 of 33

     

    

 

		(i)	was not judged by a court of competent jurisdiction to
have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the individual ought to have done; and

 

		(ii)	fulfils the conditions set out in Section 2.1(a)(i)
and 2.1(a)(ii) above.

 

		(d)	Incidental Expenses - except to the extent such
costs, charges, expenses, fees or liabilities are paid by an Interested Corporation, the Corporation will payor reimburse the
Indemnified Party for reasonable travel, lodging or accommodation costs, charges or expenses paid or incurred by or on behalf
of the Indemnified Party in carrying out his duties as a director or officer of the Corporation or the Interested Corporation,
whether or not incurred in connection with any Claim.

 

		2.2	Specific Indemnity for Statutory Obligations

 

Without limiting the generality of Section 2.1 hereof, the Corporation
agrees, to the extent permitted by law, that the indemnities provided herein will include all costs, charges, expenses, fees, fines,
penalties, losses, damages or liabilities arising by operation of statute, rule, regulation or ordinance and incurred by or imposed
upon the Indemnified Party in relation to the affairs of the Corporation or the Interested Corporation by reason of the Indemnified
Party acting or having acted as a director or officer thereof, including but not limited to, any statutory obligations or liabilities
that may arise to creditors, employees, suppliers, contractors, subcontractors, or any government or agency or division of any
government, whether federal, provincial, state, regional or municipal.

 

		2.3	Taxation

 

Without limiting the generality of Section 2.1 hereof, the Corporation
agrees that the payment of any indemnity to or reimbursement of the Indemnified Party hereunder will include any amount which the
Indemnified Party may be required to pay on account of applicable income, goods or services or other taxes or levies arising out
of the payment of such indemnity or reimbursement such that the amount received by or paid on behalf of the Indemnified Party,
after payment of any such taxes or other levies, is equal to the amount required to pay and fully indemnify the Indemnified Party
for such costs, charges, expenses, fees, losses, damages or liabilities, provided however that any amount required to be paid with
respect to such taxes or other levies will be payable by the Corporation only upon the Indemnified Party remitting or being required
to remit any amount payable on account of such taxes or other levies.

 

		2.4	Partial Indemnification

 

If the Indemnified Party is determined to be entitled under
any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a portion of the costs, charges, expenses, fees,
losses, damages or liabilities incurred in respect of any Claim but not for the total amount thereof, the Corporation will nevertheless
indemnify the Indemnified Party for the portion thereof to which the Indemnified Party is determined to be so entitled.

 

		2.5	Exclusions to Indemnity

 

The Corporation will not be obligated under this Agreement to
indemnify or reimburse the Indemnified Party:

 

    	 	Page 19 of 33

     

    

 

		(a)	in respect to which the Indemnified Party may not be
relieved of liability under the CBCA or otherwise at law; or

 

		(b)	to the extent that Section 16 of the U.S. Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 is applicable to the Corporation, for expenses or the payment of profits arising from the purchase and
sale by the Indemnified Party of securities in violation of Section 16(b) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, or any similar successor statute; or

 

		(c)	with respect to any Claims initiated or brought voluntarily
by the Indemnified Party without the written agreement of the Corporation, except with respect to any Claims brought to establish
or enforce a right under this Agreement or any other statute, regulation, rule or law.

 

ARTICLE 3

CLAIMS AND PROCEEDINGS WHICH MAY GIVE
RISE TO INDEMNITY

 

		3.1	Notices of the Proceedings

 

The Indemnified Party will give notice, in writing, to the Corporation
forthwith upon the Indemnified Party being served with any statement of claim, writ, notice of motion, indictment, subpoena, investigation
order or other document commencing, threatening or continuing any Claim involving the Corporation or the Interested Corporation
or the Indemnified Party which may give rise to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement, and the Corporation agrees to
notify the Indemnified Party, in writing, forthwith upon it or any Interested Corporation being served with any statement of claim,
writ, notice of motion, indictment, subpoena, investigation order or other document commencing or continuing any Claim involving
the Indemnified Party. Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify the Corporation of any Claim will not relieve the Corporation
from liability hereunder except to the extent that the failure materially prejudices the Corporation or Interested Corporation.

 

		3.2	Subrogation

 

Promptly after receiving notice of any Claim or
threatened Claim from the Indemnified Party, the Corporation may, and upon the written request of the Indemnified Party will,
promptly assume conduct of the defence thereof and retain counsel on behalf of the Indemnified Party who is reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, to represent the Indemnified Party in respect of the Claim. If the Corporation assumes
conduct of the defence on behalf of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party hereby consents to the conduct thereof and
of any action taken by the Corporation, in good faith, in connection therewith and the Indemnified Party will fully cooperate
in such defence including, without limitation, the provision of documents, attending examinations for discovery, making
affidavits, meeting with counsel, testifying and divulging to the Corporation all information reasonably required to defend
or prosecute the Claim.

 

		3.3	Separate Counsel

 

In connection with any Claim in respect of which the Indemnified
Party may be entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel of the
Indemnified Party’s choosing and to participate in the defence thereof but the fees and disbursements of such counsel will
be at the expense of the Indemnified Party (for which the Indemnified Party will not be entitled to claim from the Corporation)
unless:

 

    	 	Page 20 of 33

     

    

 

		(a)	the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that there
are legal defences available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Corporation
or the Interested Corporation, as the case may be, or that a conflict of interest exists which makes representation by counsel
chosen by the Corporation not advisable;

 

		(b)	the Corporation has not assumed the defence of the Claim
and employed counsel therefor reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of time after receiving
notice thereof; or

 

		(c)	employment of such other counsel has been authorized
by the Corporation;

 

in which event the reasonable fees and disbursements of such
counsel will be paid by the Corporation, subject to the terms hereof.

 

		3.4	No Presumption as to Absence of Good Faith

 

Unless a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise has held
or decided that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder, in full or in part, the determination of any
Claim by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not, of itself,
create any presumption for the purposes of this Agreement that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnity hereunder.

 

		3.5	Settlement of Claim

 

No admission of liability and no settlement of any Claim in
a manner adverse to the Indemnified Party will be made without the consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld. No admission of liability will be made by the Indemnified Party without the consent of the Corporation and the Corporation
will not be liable for any settlement of any Claim made without its consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

 

ARTICLE 4

INDEMNITY PAYMENTS, ADVANCES AND INSURANCE

 

		4.1	Court Approvals

 

If the payment of an indemnity hereunder requires the approval
of a court under the provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act or otherwise, either of the Corporation or, failing
the Corporation, the Indemnified Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for an order approving the indemnity of the
Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement.

 

		4.2	Advances

 

		(a)	If the Board of Directors of the Corporation has determined,
in good faith and based on the representations made to it by the Indemnified Party, that the Indemnified Party is or may to be
entitled to indemnity hereunder in respect of any Claim, the Corporation will, at the request of the Indemnified Party, either
pay such amount to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party by way of indemnity or, if the Board of Directors is unwilling to pay
or is unable to determine if it is entitled to pay that amount by way of indemnity, then the Corporation will advance to the Indemnified
Party sufficient funds, or arrange to pay on behalf of or reimburse the Indemnified Party any costs, charges, expenses, retainers
or legal fees incurred or paid by the Indemnified Party in respect to such Claim.

 

    	 	Page 21 of 33

     

    

 

		(b)	Any advance made by the Corporation under Section 4.2(a)
will be treated as a loan to the Indemnified Party, pending approval by the Board of Directors of the payment thereof as an indemnity
and advanced to or for the benefit of the Indemnified Party on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may prescribe
which may include interest, the provision of security or a guarantee or indemnity therefor. Notwithstanding the generality of
the foregoing, the terms of any such advance will provide that in the event it is ultimately determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified in respect of any amount for which an advance was made,
or that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified for the full amount advanced, or the Indemnified Party has received
insurance or other compensation or reimbursement payments from any insurer or third party in respect of the same subject matter,
such advance, or the appropriate portion thereof, will be repaid to the Corporation, on demand.

 

		4.3	Other Rights and Remedies Unaffected

 

The indemnification and payment provided in this Agreement will
not derogate from or exclude and will incorporate any other rights to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled under any provision
of the CBCA or otherwise at law, the Articles or By-Laws of the Corporation, the constating documents of any Interested Corporation,
any applicable policy of insurance, guarantee or third-party indemnity, any vote of shareholders of the Corporation, or otherwise,
both as to matters arising out of his capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation, an Interested Corporation, or as to
matters arising out of any other capacity in which the Indemnified Party may act for or on behalf of or be associated with the
Corporation or the Interested Corporation.

 

		4.4	Insurance

 

The Corporation will, to the extent permitted by law, purchase
and maintain, or cause to be purchased and maintained, for so long as the Indemnified Party remains a director or officer of the
Corporation or the Interested Corporation, and for a period of six (6) years thereafter, insurance for the benefit of the Indemnified
Party (or a rider, extension or modification of such policy to extend the time within which a Claim would be required to be reported
by the Indemnified Party under such policy after the Indemnified Party has ceased to be a director or officer) on terms no less
favourable than the maximum coverage in place while the Indemnified Party served as a director or officer of the Corporation or
as the Corporation maintains in existence for its then serving directors and officers and provided such insurance or additional

JAMES BARR

 

(the “Executive”)

 

WITNESSES THAT WHEREAS:

 

A.     The Executive is an executive
of the Company and the Parent Company (as defined below) and is considered by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company (the
“Board”) to be a vital employee with special skills and abilities, and will be well-versed in knowledge of the Company’s
business and the industry in which it is engaged;

 

B.     The Board recognizes that it
is essential and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders that the Company retain and encourage the Executive’s
continuing service and dedication to his office and employment without distraction caused by the uncertainties, risks and potentially
disturbing circumstances that could arise from a possible change in control of the Parent Company;

 

C.     The Board further believes that
it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, in the event of a change of control of the Parent Company, to
maintain the cohesiveness of the Company’s senior management team so as to ensure a successful transition, maximize shareholder
value and maintain the performance of the Company;

 

D.     The Board further believes that
the service of the Executive to the Company requires that the Executive receive fair treatment in the event of a change in control
of the Parent Company; and

 

E.     In order to induce the Executive
to remain in the employ of the Company notwithstanding a possible change of control, the Company has agreed to provide to the Executive
certain benefits in the event of a change of control.

 

NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the premises and the covenants
herein contained on the part of the parties hereto and in consideration of the Executive continuing in office and in the employment
of the Company, the Company and the Executive hereby covenant and agree as follows:

		11.	Copy of Agreement

 

The Executive hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of this
Agreement executed by the Company.

 

		12.	Effect of Section 409A

 

Payments and benefits provided under or referenced in this Agreement
are intended to be designed in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements
of, Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the regulations issued thereunder (collectively, as in effect from time
to time, “Section 409A”) and shall be construed, administered and interpreted in accordance with such intention. If,
as of the date of the Executive’s termination, the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of
Section 409A, then to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A and to avoid the imposition of taxes and/or penalties under
Section 409A, payment to the Executive of any amount or benefit under this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program or agreement
that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A and which under the terms of this Agreement
or any other Employer plan, program or arrangement would otherwise be payable as a result of and within six (6) months following
such termination shall be delayed, as provided under current regulatory requirements under Section 409A, until the earlier of (i)
five (5) days after the Employer receives notification of the Executive’s death or (ii) the first business day of the seventh
month following the date of the Executive’s termination.

 

Any payment or benefit under this Agreement that is payable
upon a termination of the Executive’s employment shall only be paid or provided to the Executive upon a “separation
from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If the Executive or the Company determine that any payment, benefit, distribution,
deferral election, or any other action or arrangement contemplated by the provisions of this Agreement would, if undertaken or
implemented, cause the Executive to become subject to taxes and/or penalties under Section 409A, then such payment, benefit, distribution,
deferral election or other action or arrangement shall not be given effect to the extent it causes such result and the related
provisions of this Agreement will be deemed modified in order to provide the Executive with the intended economic benefit and comply
with the requirements of Section 409A.

 

    	 	Page 32 of 33

     

    

 

To the extent necessary to cause payments under this Agreement
to be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A, the term Change of Control shall mean a “change in control event”
within the meaning of Section 409A.
