      Act, except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933

      the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and in each case only in
      accordance with applicable state securities laws;

	 	 	 
	 	(b) 	
      the Company will refuse to register any transfer of any

      to, the registration requirements of the 1933 Act;

	 	 	 
	 	(c) 	
      the decision to execute this Subscription Agreement and

      in this document (the "Company Information").

	 	 	 
	 	(d) 	
      the Subscriber and the Subscriber's advisor(s) have had a
      reasonable opportunity to review the Company Information and to ask

      other document provided to the Subscriber;

      limited to, any and all fees, costs and expenses whatsoever reasonably
      incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim,
      lawsuit, administrative proceeding or investigation whether commenced or
      threatened) arising out of or based upon any acknowledgment,
      representation or warranty of the Subscriber contained herein, the
      Questionnaire or in any other document furnished by the Subscriber to the
      Company in connection herewith, being untrue in any material respect or
      any breach or failure by the Subscriber to comply with any covenant or
      agreement made by the Subscriber to the Company in connection
      therewith;

	 	 	 
	 	(h) 	
      the issuance and sale of the Securities to the Subscriber
      will not be completed if it would be unlawful or if, in the discretion of

      applicable resale
restrictions;

	 	(j)

      of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of,
      conditioning the market in the United States for the resale of any of the
      Securities; provided, however, that the Subscriber may sell or otherwise
      dispose of any of the Securities pursuant to registration of any of the

      such Securities;

	 	 	 
	 	(l) 	
      the statutory and regulatory basis for the exemption
      claimed for the offer and sale of the Securities, although in technical
      compliance with Regulation S, would not be available if the offering is
      part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the 1933
      Act;

	 	 	 
	 	(m)

 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND WAIVER 

6.1                  
The Subscriber has acknowledged that the decision to purchase the Securities was
made based solely on the Company Information. The Subscriber hereby waives, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any rights of withdrawal, rescission or
compensation for damages to which the Subscriber might be entitled in connection
with the distribution of any of the Securities. Because the Subscriber is not
purchasing the Securities under a prospectus, the Subscriber will not have the
civil protections, rights and remedies that would otherwise be available to the
Subscriber under the securities laws in Canada, including statutory rights of
rescission or damages. 

7.                   
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES WILL BE RELIED UPON BY THE
COMPANY 

7.1                  
The Subscriber acknowledges that the acknowledgements, representations and
warranties contained herein and in the Questionnaire are made by it with the
intention that they may be relied upon by the Company and its legal counsel in
determining the Subscriber's eligibility to purchase the Securities under
applicable securities legislation, or (if applicable) the eligibility of others
on whose behalf it is contracting hereunder to purchase the Securities under
applicable securities legislation. The Subscriber further agrees that by
accepting delivery of the certificates representing the Securities, it will be
representing and warranting that the acknowledgements representations and
warranties contained herein and in the Questionnaire are true and correct as of
the date hereof and the date of delivery and will continue in full force and
effect notwithstanding any subsequent disposition by the Subscriber of all of
the Securities. 

8.                    
RESALE RESTRICTIONS 

8.1                  
The Subscriber acknowledges that any resale of any of the Securities will be
subject to resale restrictions contained in the securities legislation
applicable to the Subscriber or proposed transferee. The Subscriber acknowledges
that none of the Securities have been registered under the 1933 Act or the
securities laws of any state of the United States. The Securities may not be
offered or sold in the United States unless registered in accordance with
federal securities laws and all applicable state securities laws or exemptions
from such registration requirements are available. 

9

8.2                  
The Subscriber acknowledges that the Securities are subject to resale
restrictions in Canada and may not be traded in Canada except as permitted by
the Securities Act (Ontario) (the “Ontario Act”) and the rules
made thereunder. 

8.3                   Pursuant
to NI 45-102, a subsequent trade in the Securities will be a distribution
subject to the prospectus and registration requirements of applicable Canadian
securities legislation (including the Ontario Act) unless certain conditions are
met, which conditions include the requirement that a hold period (the
"Canadian Hold Period") beginning on the date on which the Securities
were issued, as mandated by Canada’s National Instrument 45-102, Resale of
Securities (“45-102”), shall have elapsed and, during the currency of
the Canadian Hold Period, any certificate representing the Securities is
imprinted with a restrictive legend (the "Canadian Legend"). 

8.4                  
By executing and delivering this Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber has
directed the Company not to include the Canadian Legend on any certificates
representing the Securities to be issued to the Subscriber. 

8.5                  
As a consequence, the Subscriber may not be able to rely on the resale
provisions of NI 45-102, and any subsequent trade in any of the Securities
during or after the Canadian Hold Period may be a distribution subject to the
prospectus and registration requirements of Canadian securities legislation, to
the extent that the trade is at that time subject to any such Canadian
securities legislation. 

8.6                   No
Securities of any class of the Company shall be transferred without the approval
of the directors, provided that approval of any transfer of Securities may be
given as aforesaid after the transfer has been effected upon the records of the
Company, in which event, unless the said approval stipulates otherwise, the said
transfer shall be valid and shall take effect as from the date of its very entry
upon the books of the Company. This covenant shall survive the Closing. 

9.
