sum of "A" and "B" below for any individual, non-employee director for any calendar year beginning on or after
January 1, 2016 shall not exceed U.S.$350,000 (or U.S.$700,000 for any non-employee director: (y) in the first calendar year of
such non-employee director's service to the Company; or (z) for any calendar year that such non-employee director serves as the

"A"       equals the aggregate grant date fair value (computed as of the date of grant in accordance with applicable financial
accounting rules) of all Awards and any other security-based awards granted under the Director Programs (other than with
respect to any compensation described in "B" below) to such director during such calendar year, subject to a
maximum fair value of Cdn.$150,000 per calendar year (excluding (i) the fair value of any Awards and any other security-based
awards granted under the Director Programs issued in lieu of cash fees, where the applicable award has the same value as such

directors of the Company shall not be eligible to receive grants of Options or Warrants under the Plan.

 

Collectively,
the restrictions referred to in Sections 3(b)(v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) are referred to as the "Insider and Non-Employee
Director Participation Restrictions".

 

(c)          Shares
Distributed. Any Shares distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares
or Shares purchased on the open market, provided that, notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, all Options and
Warrants granted to Canadian Participants shall be settled by way of the issuance of previously unissued Shares from treasury of
the Company.

 

		4.	ADMINISTRATION.

 

(a)          Administrator.
The Committee (or another committee or a subcommittee of the Board assuming the functions of the Committee under the Plan) shall
administer the Plan (except as otherwise permitted herein). To the extent necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act,
and with respect to Awards that are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, including Options or Warrants, then the Committee
(or another committee or subcommittee of the Board assuming the functions of the Committee under the Plan) shall take all action
with respect to such Awards, and the individuals taking such action shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors
appointed by and holding office at the pleasure of the Board, each of whom is intended to qualify as both a "non-employee
director" as defined by Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act or any successor rule and an "outside director" for purposes
of Section 162(m) of the Code. Additionally, to the extent required by Applicable Law, each of the individuals constituting
the Committee (or another committee or subcommittee of the Board assuming the functions of the Committee under the Plan) shall
be an "independent director" under Applicable Law and the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system
on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action taken by the Committee shall be valid
and effective, whether or not members of the Committee at the time of such action are later determined not to have satisfied the
requirements for membership set forth in this Section 4(a) or otherwise provided in any charter of the Committee. Except as may
otherwise be provided in any charter of the Committee, appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment.
Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written or electronic notice to the Board. Vacancies in the Committee may
only be filled by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the full Board, acting by a majority of its members in office,
shall conduct the general administration of the Plan with respect to Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors and, with respect
to such Awards, the terms "Administrator" and "Committee" as used in the Plan shall be deemed to refer to the
Board and (ii) the Board or Committee may delegate its authority hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 4(f).

 

    	12 

     

    

  

(b)          Duties
and Powers of Committee. It shall be the duty of the Committee to conduct the general administration of the Plan in accordance
with its provisions. The Committee shall have the power to interpret the Plan, the Program and the Award Agreement, and to adopt
such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are not inconsistent therewith, to interpret,
amend or revoke any such rules and to amend any Program or Award Agreement; provided that the rights or obligations of the Participant
that is the subject of any such Program or Award Agreement are not affected adversely by such amendment, unless the consent of
the Participant is obtained or such amendment is otherwise permitted under Section 10(k) or Section 18(h). Any such grant or award
under the Plan need not be the same with respect to each Participant. In its sole discretion, the Board may at any time and from
time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee under the Plan except with respect to matters which under
Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or any successor rule, or Section 162(m) of the Code, or any regulations or rules issued thereunder,
or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded are required
to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.

 

(c)          Action
by the Committee. Unless otherwise established by the Board or in any charter of the Committee, a majority of the Committee
shall constitute a quorum and the acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts
approved in writing by all members of the Committee in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Committee. Each member
of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any
officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company's independent certified public accountants, or any executive
compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan.

 

(d)          Authority
of Administrator. Subject to the Company's Bylaws, the Committee's Charter, the rules of any securities exchange or automated
quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded, any specific designation in the Plan and Section 15, the Administrator
has the exclusive power, authority and sole discretion to:

 

    	13 

     

    

  

(i)          Designate
Eligible Individuals to receive Awards;

 

(ii)         Determine
the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Eligible Individual;

 

(iii)        Determine
the number of Awards to be granted and the number of Shares to which an Award will relate;

 

(iv)        Determine
the terms and conditions of any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, grant price,
purchase price, any Performance Criteria, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for vesting, lapse of forfeiture
restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, and any provisions related
to non-competition and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Administrator in its sole
discretion determines;

 

(v)         Determine
whether, to what extent, and pursuant to what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be
paid in cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered;

 

(vi)        Prescribe
the form of each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Participant;

 

(vii)       Decide
all other matters that must be determined in connection with an Award;

 

(viii)      Establish,
adopt, or revise any rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or advisable to administer the Plan;

 

(ix)         Interpret
the terms of, and any matter arising pursuant to, the Plan, any Program or any Award Agreement;

 

(x)          Make
all other decisions and determinations that may be required pursuant to the Plan or as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable
to administer the Plan; and

 

(xi)         Accelerate
wholly or partially the vesting or lapse of restrictions of any Award or portion thereof at any time after the grant of an Award,
subject to whatever terms and conditions it selects and Section 13.

 

(e)          Decisions
Binding. The Administrator's interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, any Program, any Award Agreement
and all decisions and determinations by the Administrator with respect to the Plan are final, binding and conclusive on all parties.

 

    	14 

     

    

  

(f)          Delegation
of Authority. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Board or Committee may from time to time delegate to a committee
of one or more members of the Board or one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant or amend Awards or to take other
administrative actions pursuant to this Section 4; provided, however, that in no event shall an officer of the Company be
delegated the authority to grant awards to, or amend awards held by, the following individuals: (i) individuals who are subject
to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, (ii) Covered Employees or (iii) officers of the Company (or Directors) to whom authority to
grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder; provided, further, that any delegation of administrative authority shall only
be permitted to the extent it is permissible under Section 162(m) of the Code and other Applicable Law. Any delegation hereunder
shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or Committee specifies at the time of such delegation, and the Board
may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the delegatee appointed under this
Section 4(f) shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board and the Committee.

 

(g)          Modification
of Terms and Conditions through Employment or Consulting Agreements. Notwithstanding the provisions of any Award Agreement,
any modifications to the terms and conditions of any Award permitted by Section 4(b) and Section 15 with respect to any Employee
or Consultant may be effected by including the modification in an employment or consulting agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary
and the Participant.

 

		5.	TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS.

 

Each Option granted
shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement in substantially the form as may be approved by the Administrator. Each Option Agreement
shall include the following terms and conditions and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator may deem appropriate
and, in respect of Options granted to Canadian Employee Participants, any additional terms and conditions required to ensure that
such Options are governed, at all times, by the provisions of Section 7 of the Tax Act:

 

(a)          Option
Term. Each Option Agreement shall specify the term for which the Option thereunder is granted and shall provide that such Option
shall expire at the end of such term.

 

(b)          Exercise
Price. Each Option Agreement shall specify the exercise price per Share, as determined by the Administrator at the time the
Option is granted, which exercise price shall in no event be less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

(c)          Vesting.
Each Option Agreement shall specify when it is exercisable. The total number of Shares subject to an Option may, but need not,
be allotted in periodic installments (which may, but need not, be equal). An Option Agreement may provide that from time to time
during each of such installment periods, the Option may become exercisable ("vest") with respect to some or all
of the Shares allotted to that period, and may be exercised with respect to some or all of the Shares allotted to such period or
any prior period as to which the Option shall have become vested but shall not have been fully exercised. An Option may be subject
to such other terms and conditions on the time or times when it may be exercised (which may be based on performance or other criteria) as
the Administrator deems appropriate.

 

    	15 

     

    

  

(d)          Company's
Repurchase Right on Option Shares. Each Option Agreement may, but is not required to, include provisions whereby the Company
shall have the right, subject to Applicable Law, to repurchase any and all Shares acquired by an Optionee on exercise of any Option
granted under the Plan, at such price and on such other terms and conditions as the Administrator may approve and as may be set
forth in the Option Agreement; provided that, in respect of any Option granted to a Canadian Participant who would otherwise be
eligible for preferential tax treatment under paragraph 110(1)(d) of the Tax Act in respect of such Option, the applicable Option
Agreement shall provide that any such repurchase right cannot be exercised until (i) two years plus a day following the exercise
of the Option, or (ii) after termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant, whenever such
termination may occur and whether such termination is voluntary or involuntary, with cause or without cause, without regard to
the reason therefor, if any.

 

(e)          Substitute
Awards. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5 to the contrary, but subject to the rules of any securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded, in the case of an Option that is a Substitute
Award, the price per share of the Shares subject to such Option may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of
grant of the Substitute Award; provided that the excess of: (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date such Substitute
Award is granted) of the Shares subject to the Substitute Award, over (ii) the aggregate exercise price thereof does not exceed
the excess of: (x) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction giving rise to the Substitute
Award, such fair market value to be determined by the Administrator) of the shares of the predecessor entity that were subject
to the grant assumed or substituted for by the Company, over (y) the aggregate exercise price of such shares.

 

		6.	TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF WARRANTS.

 

Each Warrant granted
shall be evidenced by a Warrant Agreement in substantially the form as may be approved by the Administrator. Each Warrant Agreement
shall include the following terms and conditions and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator may deem appropriate,
and, in respect of Warrants granted to Canadian Employee Participants, any additional terms and conditions required to ensure that

Term. Each Warrant Agreement shall specify the term for which the Warrant thereunder is granted and shall provide that such
Warrant shall expire at the end of such term.

 

(b)          Exercise
Price. Each Warrant Agreement shall specify the purchase price per share, as determined by the Administrator at the time the
Warrant is granted, which purchase price shall in no event be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant.

 

    	16 

     

    

  

(c)          Vesting.
Each Warrant Agreement shall specify when it is exercisable. The total number of Shares subject to a Warrant may, but need not,
be allotted in periodic installments (which may, but need not, be equal). A Warrant Agreement may provide that from time to time
during each of such installment periods, the Warrant may become exercisable ("vest") with respect to some or all
of the Shares allotted to that period, and may be exercised with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to such period or
any prior period as to which the Warrant shall have become vested but shall not have been fully exercised. A Warrant may be subject
to such other terms and conditions on the time or times when it may be exercised (which may be based on performance or other criteria) as
the Administrator deems appropriate.

 

(d)          Company's
Repurchase Right on Warrant Shares. Each Warrant Agreement may, but is not required to, include provisions whereby the Company
shall have the right, subject to Applicable Law, to repurchase any and all Shares acquired by a Participant on exercise of any
Warrant granted under the Plan, at such price and on such other terms and conditions as the Administrator may approve and as may
be set forth in the Warrant Agreement; provided that, in respect of any Warrant granted to a Canadian Participant who may otherwise
be eligible for preferential tax treatment under paragraph 110(1)(d) of the Tax Act in respect of such Warrant, the applicable
Warrant Agreement shall provide that any such repurchase right cannot be exercised until (i) two years plus a day following the
exercise of the Warrant, or (ii) after termination of a Participant's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant,
whenever such termination may occur and whether such termination is voluntary or involuntary, with cause or without cause, without
regard to the reason therefor, if any.

 

(e)          Substitute
Awards. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6 to the contrary, but subject to the rules of any securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded, in the case of a Warrant that is a Substitute
Award, the price per share of the Shares subject to such Warrant may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of
grant of such Substitute Award; provided that the excess of: (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date such Substitute
Award is granted) of the Shares subject to the Substitute Award, over (ii) the aggregate purchase price thereof does not exceed
the excess of: (x) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction giving rise to the Substitute
Award, such fair market value to be determined by the Administrator) of the shares of the predecessor entity that were subject
to the grant assumed or substituted for by the Company, over (y) the aggregate purchase price of such shares.

 

		7.	TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED SHARE AWARDS.

 

(a)          Restricted
Share Award Agreement. Each Restricted Share Award shall be evidenced by a Restricted Share Agreement in substantially the
form as may be approved by the Administrator. Each Restricted Share Agreement shall be executed by the Company and the Restricted
Share Participant to whom such Restricted Share Award has been granted, unless the Restricted Share Agreement provides otherwise;
two or more Restricted Share Awards granted to a single Restricted Share Participant may, however, be combined in a single Restricted
Share Agreement. A Restricted Share Agreement shall not be a precondition to the granting of a Restricted Share Award; no person
shall have any rights under any Restricted Share Award, however, unless and until the Restricted Share Participant to whom the
Restricted Share Award shall have been granted (i) shall have executed and delivered to the Company a Restricted Share Agreement
or other instrument evidencing the Restricted Share Award, unless such Restricted Share Agreement provides otherwise, (ii) has
satisfied the applicable federal, provincial, state, local and/or foreign income and employment withholding tax liability with
respect to the Shares which vest or become issuable under the Restricted Share Award, and (iii) has otherwise complied with the
applicable terms and conditions of the Restricted Share Award.

 

    	17 

     

    

  

(b)          Restricted
Share Awards Subject to Plan. All Restricted Share Awards under the Plan shall be subject to all the applicable provisions
of the Plan, including the following terms and conditions, and to such other terms and conditions not inconsistent therewith, as
the Administrator shall determine and which are set forth in the applicable Restricted Share Agreement.

 

(i)          The
Restricted Shares subject to a Restricted Share Award shall entitle the Restricted Share Participant to receive Restricted Shares,
which are subject to forfeiture until the end of the Restriction Period. The Administrator shall have the discretionary authority
to authorize Restricted Share Awards and determine the restrictions or Restriction Period for each such Award. Such restrictions
may include, without limitation, restrictions concerning voting rights and transferability and such restrictions may lapse separately
or in combination at such times and pursuant to such circumstances or based on such criteria as selected by the Administrator,
including, without limitation, criteria based on the Participant's duration of employment, directorship or consultancy with the
Company, the Performance Criteria, Company performance, individual performance or other criteria selected by the Administrator.
By action taken after the Restricted Shares are issued, the Administrator may, on such terms and conditions as it may determine
to be appropriate, accelerate the vesting of such Restricted Shares by removing any or all of the restrictions imposed by the terms
of the applicable Program or Award Agreement. Restricted Shares may not be sold or encumbered until all restrictions are terminated
or expire.

 

(ii)         Subject
to the terms and restrictions of this Section 7 or the applicable Restricted Share Agreement or as otherwise determined by
the Administrator, upon delivery of Restricted Shares to a Restricted Share Participant, or upon creation of a book entry evidencing
a Restricted Share Participant's ownership of Restricted Shares, pursuant to Section 7(e), the Restricted Share Participant shall
have all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to such shares.

 

(c)          Cash
Payment. The Administrator shall establish the purchase price, if any, and form of payment for Restricted Shares. In all cases,
legal consideration shall be required for each issuance of Restricted Shares.

 

    	18 

     

    

  

(d)          Forfeiture
of Restricted Shares. If, during the Restriction Period, the Restricted Share Participant's Continuous Status as an Employee,
Director or Consultant terminates for any reason, all of such Restricted Share Participant's Restricted Shares as to which the
Restriction Period has not yet expired shall be forfeited and revert to the Plan, unless the Administrator has provided otherwise
in the Restricted Share Agreement or in an employment or consulting agreement with the Restricted Share Participant, or the Administrator,
in its discretion, otherwise determines to waive such forfeiture. If a price was paid by the Participant for the Restricted Shares,
if the Restricted Share Participant's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant terminates for any reason during
the applicable restriction period, the Company shall have the right to repurchase from the Participant the unvested Restricted
Shares then subject to restrictions at a cash price per Share equal to the price paid by the Participant for such Restricted Shares
or such other amount as may be specified in the applicable Program or Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator,
in its sole discretion, may provide that upon certain events, including a Change in Control, the Participant's death, retirement
or Disability or any other specified termination of Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant or any other event,
the Participant's rights in unvested Restricted Shares shall not lapse, such Restricted Shares shall vest and, if applicable, the
Company shall not have a right of repurchase.

 

(e)          Receipt
of Share Certificates. Each Restricted Share Participant who receives a Restricted Share Award shall be issued one or more
share certificates in respect of such Restricted Shares. Any such share certificates for Restricted Shares shall be registered
in the name of the Restricted Share Participant but shall be appropriately legended and returned to the Company or its agent by
the recipient, together with a Share power or other appropriate instrument of transfer, endorsed in blank by the recipient. Notwithstanding
anything in the foregoing to the contrary, in lieu of the issuance of certificates for any Restricted Shares during the applicable
Restriction Period, a "book entry" (i.e., a computerized or manual entry) may be made in the records of the Company,
or its designated agent, as the Administrator, in its discretion, may deem appropriate, to evidence the ownership of such Restricted
Shares in the name of the applicable Restricted Share Participant. Such records of the Company or such agent shall, absent manifest
error, be binding on all Restricted Share Participants hereunder. The holding of Restricted Shares by the Company or its agent,
or the use of book entries to evidence the ownership of Restricted Shares, in accordance with this Section 7(e), shall not affect
the rights of Restricted Share Participants as owners of their Restricted Shares, nor affect the Restriction Period applicable
to such shares under the Plan or the Restricted Share Agreement.

 

(f)          Dividends.
Subject to Applicable Law, a Restricted Share Participant who holds outstanding Restricted Shares shall not be entitled to any
dividends paid thereon, other than dividends in the form of the Company's securities. In addition, subject to Applicable Law, with
respect to a Restricted Share with performance-based vesting, dividends which are paid prior to vesting shall only be paid out
to the Restricted Share Participant to the extent that the performance-based vesting conditions are subsequently satisfied and
the Restricted Share vests.

 

(g)          Expiration
of Restriction Period. Upon a Restricted Share Participant's Restricted Shares becoming free of the foregoing restrictions,
the Company shall, subject to Sections 10(j), 10(k) and 11(m), deliver share certificates evidencing such Share to such Restricted
Share Participant. Such certificates shall be freely transferable, subject to any market black-out periods which may be imposed
by the Company from time to time or insider trading policies to which the Restricted Share Participant may at the time be subject.

 

    	19 

     

    

  

(h)          Section
83(b) Election. If a US Participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to the Restricted
Share as of the date of transfer of the Restricted Share rather than as of the date or dates upon which the Participant would otherwise
be taxable under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Participant shall be required to deliver a copy of such election to the Company
promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service along with proof of the timely filing thereof with the Internal
Revenue Service.

 

(i)          Trust.
The Company or Administrator may, at its discretion, establish a trust governed by Section 7(2) of the Tax Act in respect of any
Restricted Shares awarded to Canadian Employee Participants.

 

(j)          Substitution
of Restricted Share Awards. The Administrator may accept the surrender of outstanding Restricted Shares (to the extent that
the Restriction Period or other restrictions applicable to such shares have not yet lapsed) and grant new Restricted Share Awards
in substitution for such Restricted Shares.

 

		8.	TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AWARDS.

 

(a)          Restricted
Share Unit Award Agreement. Each Restricted Share Unit Award shall be evidenced by a Restricted Share Unit Agreement in substantially
the form or forms as may be approved by the Administrator. Each Restricted Share Unit Agreement shall be executed by the Company
and the Restricted Share Unit Participant to whom such Restricted Share Unit Award has been granted, unless the Restricted Share
Unit Agreement provides otherwise; two or more Restricted Share Unit Awards granted to a single Restricted Share Unit Participant
may, however, be combined in a single Restricted Share Unit Agreement. A Restricted Share Unit Agreement shall not be a precondition
to the granting of a Restricted Share Unit Award; however, no person shall be entitled to receive any Shares pursuant to a Restricted
Share Unit Award unless and until the Restricted Share Unit Participant to whom the Restricted Share Unit Award shall have been
granted (i) shall have executed and delivered to the Company a Restricted Share Unit Agreement or other instrument evidencing the
Restricted Share Unit Award, unless such Restricted Share Unit Agreement provides otherwise, (ii) has satisfied or made arrangements
to satisfy the applicable federal, provincial, state, local and/or foreign income and employment withholding tax liability with
respect to the Shares which vest or become issuable under the Restricted Share Unit Award, and (iii) has otherwise complied with
all the other applicable terms and conditions of the Restricted Share Unit Award.

 

(b)          Restricted
Share Unit Awards Subject to Plan. All Restricted Share Unit Awards under the Plan shall be subject to all the applicable provisions
of the Plan, including the following terms and conditions, and to such other terms and conditions not inconsistent therewith, as
the Administrator shall determine and which are set forth in the applicable Restricted Share Unit Agreement; provided that (i)
all Restricted Share Units granted to US Participants shall be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code; and (ii) all Restricted
Share Units granted to Canadian Employee Participants shall have terms and conditions necessary to ensure that such Restricted
Share Units comply, at all times, with the requirements of paragraph (k) of the exception to the definition of "salary deferral
arrangement" in subsection 248(1) of the Tax Act or are governed by the provisions of section 7 of the Tax Act.

 

    	20 

     

    

  

(i)          The
Restricted Share Units subject to a Restricted Share Unit Award shall entitle the Restricted Share Unit Participant to receive
the Shares underlying those Restricted Share Units upon the attainment of designated performance goals, including but not limited
to one or more Performance Criteria, Company performance, individual performance, the satisfaction of specified employment or service
requirements, upon the expiration of a designated time period following the attainment of such goals or the satisfaction of the
applicable service period or other specific criteria, in each case, subject to the remainder of this Section 8, on a specified
date or dates or over any period or periods, as determined by the Administrator. Except for Restricted Share Units granted to a
Canadian Employee Participant, the Administrator may provide the Restricted Share Unit Participant with the right to elect the
issue date or dates for the Shares which vest under his or her Restricted Share Unit Award. Subject to the remaining provisions
of this Section 8, the issuance of vested Shares under the Restricted Share Unit Award may be deferred to a date following the
termination of the Restricted Share Unit Participant's employment or service with the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

(ii)         At
the time of grant of any Restricted Share Units to a Canadian Employee Participant, the Administrator shall specify the year of
service of the Canadian Employee Participant in respect of which the Restricted Share Units are granted (the "RSU Service
Year"). Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, all such Restricted Share Units shall be in addition
to, and not in substitution for or in lieu of, ordinary salary and wages received by such Canadian Employee Participant in respect
of his services to the Company or a Subsidiary.

 

(iii)        The
Administrator shall specify the maturity date applicable to each grant of Restricted Share Units, which shall be no earlier than
the vesting date or dates of the Award and may be determined at the election of the Participant (if permitted by Section 8(b)(i)
above and the applicable Award Agreement); provided that, (A) in the case of Restricted Share Units granted to a Canadian Employee
Participant, in no event shall the maturity date relating to each such Restricted Share Units occur later than December 15th
of the third year following the applicable RSU Service Year; and (B) in the case of Restricted Share Units granted to a US Participant,
in no event shall the maturity date relating to such Restricted Share Units occur following the later of: (a) the 15th
day of the third month following the end of calendar year in which the applicable portion of the Restricted Share Unit vests; or
(b) the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Company's fiscal year in which the applicable portion of
the Restricted Share Unit vests. On the maturity date, the Company shall, subject to Section 10(j)(v), transfer to the Participant
one unrestricted, fully transferable Share for each Restricted Share Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously
forfeited, or in the sole discretion of the Administrator and if permitted in the Restricted Share Unit Award Agreement, an amount
in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the maturity date or a combination of cash and Shares as determined by
the Administrator.

 

    	21 

     

    

  

(iv)        The
Restricted Share Unit Participant shall not have any shareholder rights with respect to the Shares subject to his or her Restricted
Share Unit Award until that Award vests and the Shares are actually issued thereunder. However, Dividend Equivalents with respect
to a Restricted Share Unit award may, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, be paid or credited, (A) in the case of a Canadian
Employee Participant, in the form of additional Restricted Share Units having the same vesting and payout conditions as the original
Restricted Share Unit Award; or (B) in the case of a US Participant, either in cash or in actual or phantom Shares, on one or more
outstanding Restricted Share Units, subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator may deem appropriate; provided, however,
that Dividend Equivalents with respect to a Restricted Share Unit award with performance-based vesting that are based on dividends
paid prior to the vesting of such Restricted Share Unit award shall only be paid out to the Participant to the extent that the
performance-based vesting conditions are subsequently satisfied and such Restricted Share Unit award vests.

 

(v)         An
outstanding Restricted Share Unit Award shall automatically terminate, and no Shares shall actually be issued in satisfaction of
that Award, if the performance goals or service requirements established for such Award are not attained or satisfied. The Administrator,
however, shall have the discretionary authority to issue vested Shares under one or more outstanding Restricted Share Unit Awards
as to which the designated performance goals or service requirements have not been attained or satisfied, subject to the requirements
of Section 162(m) of the Code as to an Award that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation.

 

(vi)        Service
requirements for the vesting of Restricted Share Unit Awards may include service as an Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director.

 

(c)          No
Cash Payment. Restricted Share Unit Awards shall not require any cash payment from the Restricted Share Unit Participant to
whom such Restricted Share Unit Award is made, either at the time such Award is made or at the time any Shares become issuable
under that Award. However, the issuance of such shares shall be subject to the Restricted Share Unit Participant’s satisfaction
of all applicable federal, provincial, state, local and/or foreign income and employment withholding taxes.

 

(d)          Forfeiture
of Restricted Share Units. If the Restricted Share Unit Participant's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant
terminates for any reason, all of the Restricted Share Units subject to his or her outstanding Restricted Share Unit Awards shall,
to the extent not vested at that time, be forfeited, and no Shares shall be issued pursuant to those forfeited Restricted Share
Units, unless the Administrator has provided in the Restricted Share Unit Agreement or in an employment or consulting agreement
with the Restricted Share Unit Participant that no such forfeiture shall occur, or the Administrator, in its sole discretion, otherwise
determines to waive such forfeiture.

 

(e)          Issuance
of Share Certificates. Each Restricted Share Unit Participant who becomes entitled to an issuance of Shares following the vesting
of his or her Restricted Share Unit Award shall, subject to Sections 10(j), 10(k) and 10(m), be issued one or more share certificates
for those Shares. Subject to such Sections 10(j), 10(k) and 10(m), each such share certificate shall be registered in the name
of the Restricted Share Unit Participant and shall be freely transferable, subject to Applicable Law and any market black-out periods
which may be imposed by the Company from time to time or insider trading policies to which the Restricted Share Unit Participant
may at the time be subject.

 

    	22 

     

    

  

(f)          No
Rights as a Shareholder. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, a Participant of Restricted Share Units shall possess
no incidents of ownership with respect to the Shares represented by such Restricted Share Units, unless and until such Shares are
transferred to the Participant pursuant to the terms of this Plan and the Award Agreement.

 

		9.	TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF DEFERRED SHARE UNIT AWARDS.

 

(a)          Deferred
Share Unit Award Agreement. Each Deferred Share Unit Award shall be evidenced by a Deferred Share Unit Agreement in substantially
the form or forms as may be approved by the Administrator. Each Deferred Share Unit Agreement shall be executed by the Company
and the Director to whom such Deferred Share Unit Award has been granted, unless the Deferred Share Unit Agreement provides otherwise;
two or more Deferred Share Unit Awards granted to a single Director may, however, be combined in a single Deferred Share Unit Agreement.
A Deferred Share Unit Agreement shall not be a precondition to the granting of a Deferred Share Unit Award; however, no person
shall be entitled to receive any Shares pursuant to a Deferred Share Unit Award unless and until the Deferred Share Unit Participant
to whom the Deferred Share Unit Award shall have been granted (i) shall have executed and delivered to the Company a Deferred Share
Unit Agreement or other instrument evidencing the Deferred Share Unit Award, unless such Deferred Share Unit Agreement provides
otherwise, (ii) has satisfied or made arrangements to satisfy the applicable federal, provincial, state, local and/or foreign income
and employment withholding tax liability with respect to the Shares which vest or become issuable under the Deferred Share Unit
Award and (iii) has otherwise complied with all the other applicable terms and conditions of the Deferred Share Unit Award.

 

(b)          Deferred
Share Unit Awards Subject to Plan. All Deferred Share Unit Awards under the Plan shall be subject to all the applicable provisions
of the Plan, including the following terms and conditions, and to such other terms and conditions not inconsistent therewith, as
the Administrator shall determine and which are set forth in the applicable Deferred Share Unit Agreement; provided that (i) all
Deferred Share Units granted to US Participants shall be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code; and (ii) all Deferred Share
Units granted to Canadian Participants shall have terms and conditions necessary to ensure that such Deferred Share Units comply,
at all times, with the requirements of Regulation 6801(d) and paragraph (l) of the exception to the definition of "salary
deferral arrangement" in subsection 248(1) of the Tax Act or are governed by the provisions of section 7 of the Tax Act.

 

(i)          Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Plan, no payment shall be made in respect of a Deferred Share Unit until after the earliest time of:
(A) the Director's death; or (B) the latest time that the Director ceases to be an employee, officer or director of the Company
or any affiliate (within the meaning of that term in paragraph 8 of Interpretation Bulletin IT-337R4, Retiring Allowances
[Consolidated], or any successor publication thereto) of the Company (such time is referred to as the "Triggering Event").
All payments in respect of a Deferred Share Unit shall be made no later than December 31st of the year commencing immediately after
the occurrence of the Triggering Event.

 

    	23 

     

    

  

(ii)         On
the Deferred Share Unit Settlement Date, the Company shall transfer or issue to the Participant one unrestricted, fully transferable
Share for each Deferred Share Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date, or in the sole discretion of the Administrator and if
permitted in the Deferred Share Unit Award Agreement, an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the Deferred
Share Unit Settlement Date or a combination of cash and Shares as determined by the Administrator, provided that a Deferred Share
Unit, at the time of grant, may be expressly limited to be settled only in cash and not in Shares. All amounts to be paid in respect
of any Deferred Share Unit granted to a Director shall depend on the Fair Market Value of a Share at a time within the period that
commences one year before the date of the Triggering Event and ends at the time the amount is paid.

 

(iii)        The
Deferred Share Unit Participant shall not have any shareholder rights with respect to the Shares subject to his or her Deferred
Share Unit Award until that Award vests and the Shares are actually issued thereunder. However, Dividend Equivalents with respect
to a Deferred Share Unit award may, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, be paid or credited, (A) in the case of a Canadian
Participant, in the form of additional Deferred Share Units having the same vesting and payout conditions as the original Deferred
Share Unit Award; or (B) in the case of a US Participant, either in cash or in actual or phantom Shares, on one or more outstanding
Deferred Share Units, subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator may deem appropriate.

 

(c)          No
Cash Payment. Deferred Share Unit Awards shall not require any cash payment from the Deferred Share Unit Participant to whom
such Deferred Share Unit Award is made, either at the time such Award is made or at the time any Shares become issuable under that
Award. However, the issuance of such Shares shall be subject to the Deferred Share Unit Participant’s satisfaction of all
applicable federal, provincial, state, local and/or foreign income and employment withholding taxes.

 

(d)          Issuance
of Share Certificates. Each Deferred Share Unit Participant who becomes entitled to an issuance of Shares following a Deferred
Share Unit Settlement Date shall, subject to Sections 10(j), 10(k) and 10(m), be issued one or more share certificates for those
Shares. Subject to such Sections 10(j), 10(k) and 10(m), each such share certificate shall be registered in the name of the Deferred
Share Unit Participant and shall be freely transferable, subject to Applicable Law and any market black-out periods which may be
imposed by the Company from time to time or insider trading policies to which the Deferred Share Unit Participant may at the time
be subject.

 

(e)          No
Rights as a Shareholder. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, a Deferred Share Unit Participant shall possess
no incidents of ownership with respect to the Shares represented by such Deferred Share Units, unless and until such Shares are
transferred to the Participant pursuant to the terms of this Plan and the Award Agreement.

 

    	24 

     

    

  

(f)          No
Additional Amounts. No Canadian Participant or any person who deals at non-arm's length, within the meaning of the Tax Act,
with the Participant, shall be entitled, under the Plan or otherwise, either immediately or in the future, either absolutely or
contingently, to receive or obtain any amount or benefit granted or to be granted for the purposes of reducing the impact, in whole
or in part, of any reduction in the Fair Market Value of the Shares.

 

(g)          Conversion
of Compensation into Deferred Share Units. Subject to such rules, regulations and conditions as the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may impose, a Participant may elect, irrevocably, no later than December 15th of the calendar year preceding the year
in which the election is to be effective, to have all or a portion of his ordinary cash compensation (the "Participant
Compensation") to be paid by his employer to such Participant for services to be performed in the calendar year following
the date of the election, satisfied by way of Deferred Share Units (with the remainder to be received in cash), by completing and
delivering to the Company an initial written election, in such form as may be approved by the Committee. Such election shall set
out the percentage of such Participant's compensation that the Participant wishes to be satisfied in the form of Deferred Share
Units (with the remaining percentage to be paid in cash), within the limitations of this Section 9(g), for the calendar year for
which the election is made and for subsequent years unless the Participant amends his election pursuant to this Section 9(g).

 

(i)          A
Participant may initiate or change the percentage of his Participant Compensation to be satisfied in the form of Deferred Share
Units for any subsequent calendar year by completing and delivering to the Company a new written election no later than December
15 of the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year to which the Participant Compensation relates.

 

(ii)         Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 9(g), no election will be permitted to be made during a Blackout Period or made or altered after December
31th of the calendar year immediately preceding the year in which the election is to be effective.

 

(iii)        Any
election made by a Participant under this Section 9(g) shall designate the percentage, if any, of the Participant Compensation
that is to be satisfied in the form of Deferred Share Units, all such designations to be in increments of five percent (5%).

 

(iv)        A
Participant's election received by the Company under this Section 9(g) shall be irrevocable and shall continue to apply with respect
to his Participant Compensation for any subsequent calendar year unless the Participant amends his election under this Section
9(g).

 

(v)         Where
there is no election that complies with this Section 9(g) in effect for a Participant for a particular calendar year, such Participant
shall be deemed to have elected to receive his Participant Compensation for the applicable calendar year in cash.

		10.	GRANTING OF AWARDS AND CONDITIONS ON EXERCISE OF OPTIONS
AND WARRANTS AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES.

 

(a)          Participation.
The Administrator may, from time to time, select from among all Eligible Individuals, those to whom an Award shall be granted and
shall determine the nature and amount of each Award, which shall not be inconsistent with the requirements of the Plan. Except
as provided in Section 10(f) regarding the grant of Awards pursuant to the Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy, no
Eligible Individual shall have any right to be granted an Award pursuant to the Plan.

 

(b)          Award
Agreement. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that sets forth the terms, conditions and limitations for such
Award, which may include the term of the Award, the provisions applicable in the event of the Participant's termination of Continuous
Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant, and the Company's authority to unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend,
cancel or rescind an Award. Award Agreements evidencing Awards intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall contain
such terms and conditions as may be necessary to meet the applicable provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code.

 

(c)          Limitations
Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded
to any individual who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth
in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act and any amendments
thereto) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan
and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive
rule.

 

(d)          No
Right to Employment; Voluntary Participation. Neither this Plan nor any Awards shall confer on any Participant or other person:
(i) any rights or claims under the Plan except in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and the applicable Program or Award
Agreement; (ii) any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Company or any Subsidiary or engagement as a Consultant
or Director, nor shall they interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary that employs or engages a Participant
to terminate that person's employment or engagement at any time with or without cause; (iii) any right to be selected to participate
in the Plan or to be granted an Award; or (iv) any right to receive any bonus, whether payable in cash or in Shares, or in any
combination thereof, from the Company or its subsidiaries, nor be construed as limiting in any way the right of the Company or
its subsidiaries to determine, in its sole discretion, whether or not it shall pay any employee or consultant bonus, and, if so
paid, the amount thereof and the manner of such payment.

 

    	26 

     

    

  

(e)          Foreign
Holders. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in countries other than
Canada or the United States in which the Company and its Subsidiaries operate or have Employees, Non-Employee Directors or Consultants,
or in order to comply with the requirements of any securities exchange outside Canada or the United States, the Administrator,
in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to: (i) determine which Subsidiaries shall be covered by the Plan; (ii)
determine which Eligible Individuals outside Canada and the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan; (iii) modify
the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Eligible Individuals outside Canada and the United States to comply with applicable
foreign laws or listing requirements of any such foreign securities exchange; (iv) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures
and other terms and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable (any such subplans and/or modifications
shall be attached to the Plan as appendices); provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the
share limitations contained in Sections 3(a) and 3(b); and (v) take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems
advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals or listing requirements
of any such foreign securities exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may not take any actions hereunder, and
no Awards shall be granted, that would violate Applicable Law. For purposes of the Plan, all references to foreign laws, rules,
regulations or taxes shall be references to the laws, rules, regulations and taxes of any applicable jurisdiction other than Canada
and the United States or a political subdivision thereof.

 

(f)          Non-Employee
Director Awards. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide that Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors shall
be granted pursuant to a written nondiscretionary formula established by the Administrator (the "Non-Employee Director
Equity Compensation Policy"), subject to the limitations of the Plan. The Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy
shall set forth the type of Award(s) to be granted to Non-Employee Directors, the number of Shares to be subject to Non-Employee
Director Awards, the conditions on which such Awards shall be granted, become exercisable and/or payable and expire, and such other
terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion. The Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation
Policy may be modified by the Administrator from time to time in its sole discretion.

 

(g)          Stand-Alone
and Tandem Awards. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, be granted either
alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem
with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards.

 

(h)          Payment.
Subject to the provisions of any particular Award, the Administrator shall determine the methods by which payments by any Participant
with respect to any Awards granted under the Plan shall be made, including, without limitation: (i) cash or check, (ii) Shares
(including, in the case of payment of the exercise price of an Award, Shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of the Award, provided
that Canadian Employee Participants shall not be entitled to pay the exercise price with any Shares issued pursuant to the exercise
of an Option or Warrant in the preceding two year period) or Shares held for such period of time as may be required by the Administrator
in order to avoid adverse accounting consequences, in each case, having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the
aggregate payments required, (iii) delivery of a written or electronic notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order
with a broker acceptable to the Company with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise or vesting of an Award, and that the
broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the aggregate
payments required; provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale, or (iv) other
form of legal consideration acceptable to the Administrator in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall also determine the
methods by which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan to the contrary, no Participant who is a Director or an "executive officer" of the Company within the meaning of
either the OSA or Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to make payment with respect to any Awards granted under
the Plan, or continue any extension of credit with respect to such payment, with a loan from the Company or a Subsidiary or a loan
arranged by the Company or a Subsidiary in violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act.

 

    	27 

     

    

  

(i)          Transferability
of Awards.

 

(i)          Except
as otherwise provided in Section 10(i)(ii):

 

(A)         No
Award under the Plan may be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution or, subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO or other order of a court of competent jurisdiction,
unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable
to such Shares have lapsed;

 

(B)         No
Award or interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the Participant or the Participant's
successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance,
assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment,
garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be
null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by Section 10(i)(i)(A); and

 

(C)         During
the lifetime of the Participant, only the Participant may exercise an Award (or any portion thereof) granted to such Participant
under the Plan, unless it has been disposed of pursuant to a DRO or other order of a court of competent jurisdiction; after the
death of the Participant, any exercisable portion of an Award may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under
the Plan or the applicable Program or Award Agreement, be exercised by the Participant's personal representative or by any person
empowered to do so under the deceased Participant's will or under the then-applicable laws of descent and distribution.

 

    	28 

     

    

  

(ii)         Notwithstanding
Section 10(i)(i), a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights
of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant's death. A beneficiary, legal
guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions
of the Plan and any Program or Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan, the Program and the
Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. If
the Participant is married, in a common law relationship, or a domestic partner in a domestic partnership qualified under Applicable
Law and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Participant's spouse or domestic partner,
as applicable, as the Participant's beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant's interest in the Award shall
not be effective without the prior written or electronic consent of the Participant's spouse or domestic partner. If no beneficiary
has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant's
will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by
a Participant at any time; provided that the change or revocation is filed with the Administrator prior to the Participant's death.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the beneficiary of a Canadian Participant in respect of Deferred Share Units shall
be a dependent or relation of the Canadian Participant or the legal representative of the Canadian Participant (within the meaning
of the Tax Act).

 

(j)          Conditions
to Issuance of Shares.

 

(i)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates or make any book entries
evidencing Shares pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Board or the Committee has determined, with advice
of counsel, that the issuance of such Shares is in compliance with Applicable Law and the Shares are covered by, as applicable:
(A) an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from registration pursuant to Applicable Securities Laws in the
United States; and (B) an exemption from the prospectus requirements pursuant to Applicable Securities Laws in Canada. In addition
to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Board or the Committee may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants,
agreements and representations as the Board or the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with Applicable
Law.

 

(ii)         All
share certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan and all Shares issued pursuant to book entry procedures are subject to any stop-transfer
orders and other restrictions as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to comply with Applicable Law. The Administrator
may place legends on any share certificate or book entry to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares.

 

(iii)        The
Administrator shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the
settlement, distribution or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the sole discretion
of the Administrator.

 

(iv)        No
fractional Shares shall be issued and the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether cash shall be given in
lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding down.

 

(v)         Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or required by Applicable Law, the Company shall
not deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares shall
be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or plan administrator).

 

    	29 

     

    

  

(k)          Forfeiture
and Claw-Back Provisions. Pursuant to its general authority to determine the terms and conditions applicable to Awards under
the Plan, the Administrator shall have the right to provide, in an Award Agreement or otherwise, or to require a Participant to
agree by separate written or electronic instrument, that:

 

(i)          Any
proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by the Participant upon any receipt or exercise of
the Award, or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Award, shall be paid to the Company, and (ii) the Award shall
terminate and any unexercised portion of the Award (whether or not vested) shall be forfeited, if (x) a termination of Continuous
Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant occurs prior to a specified date, or within a specified time period following receipt
or exercise of the Award, or (y) the Participant at any time, or during a specified time period, engages in any activity in competition
with the Company, or which is inimical, contrary or harmful to the interests of the Company, as further defined by the Administrator
or (z) the Participant incurs a termination of Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant for "cause" (as
such term is defined in the sole discretion of the Administrator, or as set forth in a written agreement relating to such Award
between the Company and the Participant); and

 

(ii)         All
Awards (including any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by the Participant upon any
receipt or exercise of any Award or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Award) shall be subject to the provisions
of any claw-back policy implemented by the Company, including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with
the requirements of Applicable Law, including without limitation the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, to the extent set forth in such claw-back policy and/or in the applicable
Award Agreement.

 

(l)          Prohibition
on Repricing. Subject to Section 13 and Section 15, the Administrator shall not, without the approval of the shareholders of
the Company, (i) authorize the amendment of any outstanding Option or Warrant to reduce its exercise or purchase price per Share,
or (ii) cancel any Option or Warrant in exchange for cash or another Award when the Option or Warrant exercise or purchase price
per share exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares. Subject to Section 13, the Administrator shall have the authority,
without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, to amend any outstanding Award to increase the exercise or purchase price
per Share or to cancel and replace an Award with the grant of an Award having an exercise or purchase price per share that is greater
than or equal to the price per share of the original Award. Furthermore, for purposes of this Section 10(l), except in connection
with a corporate transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation, any share dividend, share split, share consolidation,
extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination or exchange
of shares), the terms of outstanding Awards may not be amended to reduce the exercise or purchase price per share of outstanding
Options or Warrants or cancel outstanding Options or Warrants in exchange for cash, other Awards, Options or Warrants with an exercise
or purchase price per share that is less than the exercise or purchase price per share of the original Options or Warrants without
the approval of the Shareholders of the Company.

 

    	30 

     

    

  

(m)          Investment
Representations. The Company may require any Participant, or any person to whom an Award is transferred, as a condition of
exercising such Award, to (i) give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to such person's knowledge and experience
in financial and business matters or to employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is knowledgeable
and experienced in financial and business matters, and that he or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser
representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Option or Warrant or receiving such Share, and (ii) to give written
assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that such person is acquiring the Share for such person's own account and not with
any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the Share. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant
to such requirements, shall not apply if (1) the issuance of the Share has been registered under a then currently effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, or (2) counsel for the Company determines as to any particular requirement
that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under Applicable Securities Laws. The Company may, with the advice of
its counsel, place such legends on Share certificates issued under the Plan as the Company deems necessary or appropriate to comply
with Applicable Securities Laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the Share.

 

		11.	PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS INTENDED TO QUALIFY AS
PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION FOR US PARTICIPANTS.

 

(a)          Purpose.
The Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine at the time an Award is granted or at any time thereafter whether such Award
is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation. If the Committee, in its sole discretion, decides to grant such an Award
to an Eligible Individual that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation (other than an Option or Warrant), then
the provisions of this Section 11 shall control over any contrary provision contained in the Plan. The Administrator, in its sole
discretion, may grant Awards to other Eligible Individuals that are based on Performance Criteria or Performance Goals or any such
other criteria and goals as the Administrator shall establish, but that do not satisfy the requirements of this Section 11 and
that are not intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation. Unless otherwise specified by the Committee at the time of
grant, the Performance Criteria with respect to an Award intended to be Performance-Based Compensation payable to a Covered Employee
shall be determined on the basis of Applicable Accounting Standards.

 

(b)          Applicability.
The grant of an Award to an Eligible Individual for a particular Performance Period shall not require the grant of an Award to
such Eligible Individual in any subsequent Performance Period and the grant of an Award to any one Eligible Individual shall not
require the grant of an Award to any other Eligible Individual in such period or in any other period.

of Awards. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may grant any Award to an Eligible Individual
intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, including, without limitation, Restricted Shares the restrictions with respect
to which lapse upon the attainment of specified Performance Goals, Restricted Share Units that vest and become payable upon the
attainment of specified Performance Goals and any Performance Awards described in Section 12 that vest or become exercisable or
payable upon the attainment of one or more specified Performance Goals; provided that such Awards granted to Canadian Participants
shall also have the terms and conditions specified in the Plan.

 

(d)          Procedures
with Respect to Performance-Based Awards. To the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of
the Code, with respect to any Award granted to one or more Eligible Individuals which is intended to qualify as Performance-Based
Compensation, no later than 90 days following the commencement of any Performance Period or any designated fiscal period or period
of service (or such earlier time as may be required under Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, in writing, (i) designate
one or more Eligible Individuals, (ii) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the Performance Period, (iii) establish the
Performance Goals, and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which may be earned for such Performance Period based on the Performance
Criteria, and (iv) specify the relationship between Performance Criteria and the Performance Goals and the amounts of such Awards,
as applicable, to be earned by each Covered Employee for such Performance Period. Following the completion of each Performance
Period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether and the extent to which the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved
for such Performance Period. In determining the amount earned under such Awards, the Committee shall have the right to reduce or
eliminate (but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that
the Committee may deem relevant, including the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period.

 

(e)          Payment
of Performance-Based Awards. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Program or Award Agreement and only to the extent
otherwise permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code, as to an Award that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation,
the US Participant must be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary throughout the Performance Period. Unless otherwise provided
in the applicable Performance Goals, Program or Award Agreement, a Participant shall be eligible to receive payment pursuant to
such Awards for a Performance Period only if and to the extent the Performance Goals for such period are achieved.

 

(f)          Additional
Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan and except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, any Award
which is granted to an Eligible Individual and is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be subject to any
additional limitations set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code or any regulations or rulings issued thereunder that are requirements
for qualification as Performance-Based Compensation, and the Plan and the applicable Program and Award Agreement shall be deemed
amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements.

		12.	AWARD OF PERFORMANCE AWARDS, DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS, SHARE
PAYMENTS.

 

(a)          Performance
Awards.

 

(i)          The
Administrator is authorized to grant Performance Awards, including Awards of Performance Share Units, to any Eligible Individual
and to determine whether such Performance Awards shall be Performance-Based Compensation. The value of Performance Awards, including
Performance Share Units, may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific criteria determined by
the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods and in such amounts as may be determined
by the Administrator. Performance Awards, including Performance Share Unit awards may be paid in cash, Shares, or a combination
of cash and Shares, as determined by the Administrator. Performance Share Units granted to Canadian Employee Participants shall
have terms and conditions necessary to ensure that such Performance Share Units comply, at all times, with the requirements of
paragraph (k) or (l) of the exception to the definition of "salary deferral arrangement" in subsection 248(1) of the
Tax Act or are governed by the provisions of section 7 of the Tax Act.

 

(ii)         Without
limiting Section 12(a)(i), the Administrator may grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Individual in the form of a cash bonus
payable upon the attainment of objective Performance Goals, or such other criteria, whether or not objective, which are established
by the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator.
Any such bonuses paid to a Participant which are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation shall be based upon objectively
determinable bonus formulas established in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.

 

(b)          Dividend
Equivalents.

 

(i)          Dividend
Equivalents may be granted by the Administrator based on dividends declared on the Shares, to be credited as of dividend payment
dates with respect to dividends with record dates that occur during the period between the date an Award is granted to a Participant
and the date such Award vests, is exercised, is distributed or expires, as determined by the Administrator. Such Dividend Equivalents
shall be converted to cash or additional Shares by such formula and at such time and subject to such restrictions and limitations
as may be determined by the Administrator. In addition, Dividend Equivalents with respect to an Award with performance-based vesting
that are based on dividends paid prior to the vesting of such Award shall only be paid out to the Participant to the extent that
the performance-based vesting conditions are subsequently satisfied and the Award vests.

 

(ii)         Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Dividend Equivalents shall be payable with respect to Options or Warrants.

 

(iii)        Dividend
Equivalents, if any, granted to Canadian Participants shall be granted as a bonus for services rendered in the year of payment.

 

    	33 

     

    

  

(c)          Share
Payments. The Administrator is authorized to make Share Payments to any Eligible Individual. The number or value of Shares
of any Share Payment shall be determined by the Administrator and may be based upon one or more Performance Criteria or any other
specific criteria, including service to the Company or any Subsidiary, determined by the Administrator. Shares underlying a Share
Payment which is subject to a vesting schedule or other conditions or criteria set by the Administrator shall not be issued until
those conditions have been satisfied. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, a Participant of a Share Payment shall have
no rights as a Company Shareholder with respect to such Share Payment until such time as the Share Payment has vested and the Shares
underlying the Award have been issued to the Participant. Share Payments may, but are not required to, be made in lieu of base
salary, bonus, fees or other cash compensation otherwise payable to such Eligible Individual.

 

(d)          Term.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 12, the term of a Performance Award, Dividend Equivalent award and/or a Share
Payment award shall be established by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

 

(e)          Purchase
Price. The Administrator may establish the purchase price of a Performance Award or Shares distributed as a Share Payment award.

 

(f)          Termination
of Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant. A Performance Award, Share Payment award and/or a Dividend Equivalent
award is distributable only while the Participant is an Employee, Director or Consultant, as applicable. The Administrator, however,
in its sole discretion, may provide that the Performance Award, Dividend Equivalent award and/or Share Payment award may be distributed
subsequent to a termination of Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant in certain events, including a Change in
Control, the Participant's death, retirement or Disability or any other specified termination of Continuous Status as an Employee,
Director or Consultant.

 

		13.	ADJUSTMENTS ON CERTAIN EVENTS.

 

(a)          In
the event of any share dividend, share split, share consolidation, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or
other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to Shareholders, or any other change affecting the Shares
or price of the Shares other than an Equity Restructuring, the Administrator may make equitable adjustments, if any, to reflect
such change with respect to: (i) the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not
limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Sections 3(a) and 3(b) on the maximum number and kind of shares which may be issued
under the Plan, and adjustments of the Award Limit); (ii) the number and kind of shares (or other securities or property) subject
to outstanding Awards; (iii) the number and kind of shares (or other securities or property) that may be issued by a single officer
under the Plan; (iv) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance
targets or criteria with respect thereto); and (v) the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan.
Any adjustment affecting an Award intended as Performance-Based Compensation shall be made consistent with the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code. Any adjustment to an Option granted to a Canadian Employee Participant shall be made consistent with
the requirements of subsection 7(1.4) of the Tax Act.

 

    	34 

     

    

  

(b)          In
the event of any transaction or event described in Section 13(a) or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting
the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary, or of changes in Applicable
Law or accounting principles, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate,
either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically
or upon the Participant's request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator
determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended
to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to
give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles:

 

(i)          To
provide for either (A) termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would
have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant's rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt,
if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 13 the Administrator determines in good
faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant's rights, then
such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment) or (B) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property
selected by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, having an aggregate value not exceeding the amount that could have been
attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant's rights had such Award been currently exercisable or
payable or fully vested;

 

(ii)         To
provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted
for by similar options, rights or awards covering the shares of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary
thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices;

 

(iii)        To
make adjustments in the number and type of shares of the Company (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards,
and in the number and kind of outstanding Restricted Shares and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise
price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Awards and Awards which may be granted in the future;

 

(iv)        To
provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all Shares covered thereby, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Plan or the applicable Program or Award Agreement; and

 

(v)         To
provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after such event.

 

    	35 

     

    

  

(c)          In
connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13(a) and 13(b):

 

(i)          The
number and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and the exercise price or grant price thereof, if applicable, shall
be equitably adjusted; and/or

 

(ii)         The
Administrator shall make such equitable adjustments, if any, as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may deem appropriate
to reflect such Equity Restructuring with respect to the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan
(including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Sections 3(a) and 3(b) on the maximum number and kind of shares
which may be issued under the Plan, and adjustments of the Award Limit). The adjustments provided under this Section 13(c) shall
be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected Participant and the Company.

 

(d)          The
Administrator, in its sole discretion, may include such further provisions and limitations in any Award, agreement or certificate,
as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.

 

(e)          With
respect to Awards which are granted to Covered Employees and are intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, no adjustment
or action described in this Section 13 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment
or action would cause such Award to fail to so qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, unless the Administrator determines that
the Award should not so qualify. No adjustment or action described in this Section 13 or in any other provision of the Plan shall
be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Plan to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code.
Furthermore, no such adjustment or action shall be authorized to the extent such adjustment or action would result in short-swing
profits liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 unless the Administrator
determines that the Award is not to comply with such exemptive conditions.

 

(f)          The
existence of the Plan, the Program, the Award Agreement and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way
the right or power of the Company or the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization
or other change in the Company's capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of shares
or of options, warrants or rights to purchase shares or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference shares whose rights
are superior to or affect the Shares or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Shares, or the dissolution
or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act
or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

 

    	36 

     

    

  

(g)          No
action shall be taken under this Section 13 which shall cause an Award granted to a US Participant to fail to be exempt from or
comply with Section 409A of the Code or the Treasury Regulations thereunder. No action shall be taken under this Section 13 which
shall cause any Option granted to a Canadian Employee Participant to fail to be governed by the provisions of section 7 of the
Tax Act or which shall cause any Restricted Share Unit or Performance Share Unit granted to a Canadian Employee Participant to
cease to qualify with the requirements for the exception in paragraph (k) of the definition of "salary deferral arrangement
in subsection 248(1) of the Tax Act or which shall cause any Deferred Share Unit to cease to qualify with the requirements for
the exception in Regulation 6801(d) and paragraph (l) of the definition of "salary deferral arrangement" in subsection
248(l) of the Tax Act.

 

(h)          In
the event of any pending share dividend, share split, share consolidation, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation
or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to shareholders, or any other change affecting the Shares
or the price of the Shares including any Equity Restructuring, for reasons of administrative convenience, the Administrator, in
its sole discretion, may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award during a period of up to thirty (30) days prior to the consummation
of any such transaction.

 

(i)          No
Effect on Powers of Board or Shareholders. The existence of the Plan and any Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any
way the right or power of the Board or the Shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization
or other change in the capital structure or business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any merger or consolidation of
the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, any issue of debt, preferred or prior preference Share ahead of or affecting Share,
the authorization or issuance of additional Shares, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or its subsidiaries, any sale
or transfer of all or part of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding.

 

(j)          Fractional
Shares. All calculations under this Section 13 shall be, in the case of exercise price, rounded up to the nearest cent or,
in the case of shares, rounded down to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, but in no event shall the Company be obligated to
issue any fractional share.

 

(k)          Uniformity
of Actions Not Required. Any actions or determinations by the Board under this Section 13 need not be uniform as to all outstanding
Awards, and need not treat all Participants identically.

 

		14.	TAX WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.

 

(a)          Tax
Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant
to remit to the Company or Subsidiary, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, provincial, state, local and foreign taxes (including
the Participant's FICA, Canada Pension Plan contributions, employment tax, Employment Insurance (Canada) premiums, or other social
security contribution obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising
as a result of the Plan. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement, may withhold,
or allow a Participant to elect to have the Company withhold, Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the surrender
of Shares). The number of Shares which may be so withheld or surrendered shall be limited to the number of Shares which have a
fair market value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum
statutory withholding rates for federal, provincial, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable
to such supplemental taxable income. The Administrator shall determine the fair market value of the Shares, consistent with applicable
provisions of the Plan, the Code and the Tax Act, for tax withholding obligations due in connection with a broker-assisted cashless
Option or Warrant exercise involving the sale of Shares to pay the Option or Warrant exercise price or any tax withholding obligation.

 

    	37 

     

    

  

		15.	AMENDMENT, TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

 

(a)          Amendment,
Termination or Suspension of Plan. Except as otherwise provided in Section 15(b), the Plan or any Award may be wholly or partially
amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Board or the Committee, including,
without limitation, for any of the following types of amendments or modifications:

 

(i)          amendments
for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, error or omission in the Plan or Award or to correct or supplement any provision of the
Plan or Award that is inconsistent with any other provision of the Plan or Award;

 

(ii)         amendments
necessary to comply with Applicable Law or the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed;

 

(iii)        amendments
to the Plan respecting administration of the Plan;

 

(iv)        amendments
of a "housekeeping" nature;

 

(v)         changes
to the terms and conditions on which Awards may be or have been granted pursuant to the Plan;

 

(vi)        amendments
to the treatment of Awards on ceasing Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant;

 

(vii)       a
change to the termination provisions of Awards which does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date;

 

(viii)      any
amendment to give effect to Section 13;

 

(ix)         any
amendment to ensure that Awards granted under the Plan will comply with any provisions of the Code or the Tax Act respecting employee
security based compensation arrangements; and

 

(x)          any
amendment to an Award that is not exercisable into, settled with, or involve the issuance of, Shares.

 

(b)          Without
approval of the Company's Shareholders, no action of the Administrator, or amendment or modification of the Plan may:

 

    	38 

     

    

  

(i)          increase
the limits imposed in Section 3(a) on the maximum number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan,

 

(ii)         reduce
the price per share of any outstanding Option or Warrant granted under the Plan, reduce any purchase price for any other Award
as set at the time of grant, or take any action prohibited under Section 10(l),

 

(iii)        extend
the term of any Award;

 

(iv)        make
any amendment to remove or exceed the Insider and Non-Employee Director Participation Limits;

 

(v)         cancel
any Option or Warrant in exchange for cash or another Award when the Option or Warrant price per share exceeds the Fair Market
Value of the underlying Share;

 

(vi)        make
any amendment which would permit Awards granted under the Plan to be transferable or assignable other than for normal estate settlement
purposes or as otherwise permitted in Section 10(i); or

 

(vii)       amend
Section 15(a) or Section 15(b).

 

(c)          Amendment
of Awards. Subject to compliance with the rules of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed, the Board may amend the
terms of any Award previously granted, including any Award Agreement, retroactively or prospectively, but no such amendment shall
materially impair the previously accrued rights of any Participant with respect to any such Award without his or her written consent.
Except as provided in Section 10(k) and Section 18(h), no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent
of the Participant, impair any rights or obligations under any Award theretofore granted or awarded, unless the Award itself otherwise
expressly so provides.

 

		16.	COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS

 

(a)          Compliance
with Section 16 of the Exchange Act. So long as a class of the Company's equity securities is registered under Section 12 of
the Exchange Act, the Company intends that the Plan shall comply in all respects with Rule 16b-3 with respect to US Participants.
If during such time any provision of this Plan concerning US Participants is found not to be in compliance with Rule 16b-3, that
provision shall be deemed to have been amended or deleted as and to the extent necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3, and the remaining
provisions of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect without change. All transactions under the Plan with respect to
US Participants during such time shall be executed in accordance with the requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the
applicable regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

(b)          The
obligation of the Company to issue and deliver Shares pursuant to Awards in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan
is subject to Applicable Securities Laws and to the receipt of any approvals that may be required from any stock exchange on which
the Shares are listed. If Shares cannot be issued pursuant to an Award for any reason whatsoever, the obligation of the Company
to issue such Shares shall terminate and any monies paid to the Company in connection with the exercise of the Option will be returned
to the Participant as soon as practicable.

 

    	39 

     

    

  

		17.	LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND indemnification.

 

(a)          Contractual
Liability Limitation. Any liability of the Company or its subsidiaries to any Participant with respect to any Award shall be
based solely on contractual obligations created by the Plan and the Award Agreements outstanding thereunder.

 

(b)          Indemnification.
In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as Directors or officers, Directors and officers to whom authority
to act for the Board or the Company is delegated shall be indemnified by the Company against all reasonable expenses, including
attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection
with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in
connection with the Plan, or any right granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided
such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment
in any such action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such action, suit or
proceeding that such person is liable for gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct in duties; provided, however, that
within sixty (60) days after the institution of such action, suit or proceeding, such person shall offer to the Company, in writing,
the opportunity at its own expense to handle and defend the same.

 

		18.	MISCELLANEOUS

 

(a)          No
Shareholders Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein, a Participant shall have none of the rights of a Shareholder with
respect to Shares covered by any Award until the Participant becomes the record owner of such Shares.

 

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

 

(c)          Acceptance
of Terms and Conditions of Plan. By accepting any benefit under the Plan, each Participant and each person claiming under or
through such Participant shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated their acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, all
of the terms and conditions of the Plan and any action taken under the Plan by the Company, the Board or the Committee, in any
case in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan.

 

    	40 

     

    

  

(d)          No
Effect on Other Arrangements. Neither the adoption of the Plan nor anything contained herein shall affect any other compensation
or incentive plans or arrangements of the Company or its subsidiaries, or prevent or limit the right of the Company or any subsidiary
to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for their Employees, Directors or Consultants or grant or assume restricted
Share or other rights otherwise than under the Plan. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or
any Subsidiary: (i) to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for Employees, Directors or Consultants of
the Company or any Subsidiary, or (ii) to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan
in connection with any proper corporate purpose including without limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection
with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business, shares or assets of any corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, firm or association.

 

(e)          Compliance
with Laws. The Plan, the granting and vesting of Awards under the Plan and the issuance and delivery of Shares and the payment
of money under the Plan or under Awards granted or awarded hereunder are subject to compliance with all Applicable Law (including
but not limited to Applicable Securities Laws and margin requirements), the rules of any stock exchange on which the Shares are
listed, and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company,
be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions,
and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the
Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all Applicable Law. To the extent permitted by
Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to
Applicable Law.

 

(f)          Governing
Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the province of Ontario, except with respect
to those provisions of the Plan concerning the Code, which shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Delaware as superceded by applicable United States federal law.

 

(g)          Section
409A. To the extent that the Administrator determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the
Code, the Program pursuant to which such Award is granted and the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms
and conditions required by Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan, the Program and any Award Agreements shall
be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance
issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Administrator determines
that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department
of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the Effective Date), the Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the
applicable Program and Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with
retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to (i) exempt the
Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award,
or (ii) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance and thereby avoid
the application of any penalty taxes under such Section.

 

    	41 

     

    

  

(h)          No
Rights to Awards. No Eligible Individual or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan,
and neither the Company nor the Administrator is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Participants or any other persons uniformly.

 

(i)          Unfunded
Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an "unfunded" plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments
not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Program or Award Agreement shall give
the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

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

 

(k)          Expenses.
The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

(l)          Blackout
Periods. If the date under any Award on which: (i) cash is to be issued in settlement of the Award, or (ii) Performance Criteria
are to be evaluated by the Company, occurs during a Blackout Period or within three business days of the expiry of a Blackout Period
applicable to the relevant Participant, then, subject to Section 8(b)(ii) in respect of Restricted Share Units and 9(i) in respect
of Deferred Share Units, the settlement date or evaluation date, as applicable, shall be deemed to be the 10th business day after
expiry of the Blackout Period, or such earlier date following the expiry of the Blackout Period as determined by the Administrator.
Where a Blackout Period is continuing as of December 15th of the third year following the RSU Service Year in respect of Restricted
Share Units or as of December 15th of the calendar year following the Triggering Event in respect of Deferred Share Units, the

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Shares may be issued in settlement of, or upon exercise of, an Award during a Blackout Period, provided
that such Shares are subject to restrictions on trading in accordance with the Company's blackout policy.

Exhibit
A

 

Additional
Provisions for 

Restricted
Share Unit Award Agreement

(With
One-Year Performance Period)

For
US Participants in the 

Waste
Connections, Inc. 2016 Incentive Award Plan 

 

The additional terms
and conditions of this Exhibit A shall apply to the Restricted Share Unit Award for any Participant who is a US Participant.

 

1.         Settlement
of Awards. In no event shall the Company deliver (i) the first installment of the Vested Award Units to you later than March
15 of the calendar year following the end of the Performance Period, or (ii) the remaining installments of the Vested Award Units
to you later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the respective portion of the Vested Award
Units vest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay a distribution or payment in settlement of Vested Award Units
if it reasonably determines that such payment or distribution will violate federal securities laws or any other Applicable Law,
provided that such distribution or payment shall be made at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably determines that the
making of such distribution or payment will not cause such violation, as required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii),
and provided further that no payment or distribution shall be delayed under this Section 1 if such delay will result in a violation
of Section 409A of the Code. 

 

2.         Taxation
and Withholding.

 

(A)         Federal
Income Tax. You generally will recognize ordinary income for federal income tax purposes on the date the Shares subject to
your Award vest, and you must satisfy the income tax withholding obligation applicable to that income. The amount of your taxable
income will generally be based on the closing selling price per common share on the New York Stock Exchange on the date your Vested
Award Units are issued and distributed times the number of Shares which are distributed on that date. This is a general summary
of the possible tax consequences of the Award and is not tax advice. You are advised to consult with your own advisor as to the
possible tax consequences of this Award.

 

(B)         FICA
Taxes. You will be liable for the payment of the employee share of the FICA (Social Security and Medicare) taxes applicable
to your Award, which liability will generally arise at the time your Award vests. FICA taxes will generally be based on the closing
selling price of the shares on the New York Stock Exchange on the date those Shares vest under your Award.

 

(C)         Withholding
Taxes. You must pay all applicable federal, state and local income and employment withholding taxes when due.

 

i.            In
the Company’s sole discretion, the Company may collect any applicable federal, state and local income and employment withholding
taxes with respect to the Award through an automatic Share withholding procedure pursuant to which the Company will withhold a
portion of those vested Shares with a fair market value (measured as of the date the withholding obligation arises) equal to the
amount of such withholding taxes (the “Share Withholding Method”); provided, however, that the amount of any Shares
so withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Company’s required tax withholding obligations using the
minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state and local tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to
supplemental taxable income. You shall be notified in writing in the event such Share Withholding Method is no longer available.

 

    A-1 

     

    

  

ii.         Should
any Shares vest under the Award at a time when the Share Withholding Method is not available, then the Company may, in its sole
discretion, collect any applicable federal, state and local income and employment withholding taxes from you through any of the
following alternatives:

 

1.          your
delivery of a separate check payable to the Company in the amount of such withholding taxes, or

 

2.          the
use of the proceeds from a next-day sale of the Shares issued to you; provided and only if (i) such a sale is permissible under
the Company’s trading policies governing the sale of common shares, (ii) you make an irrevocable commitment, on or before
the vesting date for those Shares, to effect such sale of the Shares, and (iii) the transaction is not otherwise deemed to constitute
a prohibited loan under Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

3.          Claw-Back.
Pursuant to its general authority to determine the terms and conditions applicable to the Restricted Share Units, the Committee
shall have the right to require the Participant to agree by separate written or electronic instrument that the Units (including
any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by the Participant upon any receipt of the Restricted
Share Units or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Restricted Share Units) shall be subject to the provisions
of any claw-back policy implemented by the Company, including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with
the requirements of Applicable Law, including without limitation the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, to the extent set forth in such claw-back policy.

 

4.          Code
Section 409A. This Award is not intended to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning
of Section 409A of the Code (together with any Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder,
including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the date hereof, “Section
409A”). However, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the Award Agreement, if at any time the Administrator
determines that this Award (or any portion thereof) may be subject to Section 409A, the Administrator shall have the right in its
sole discretion (without any obligation to do so or to indemnify you or any other person for failure to do so) to adopt such amendments
to the Plan or the Award Agreement, or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with
retroactive effect), or take any other actions, as the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate for this Award either
to be exempt from the application of Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything
in this Award Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any payment or benefit constitutes non-exempt “nonqualified deferred
compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and such payment or benefit would otherwise be payable or distributable
hereunder by reason of the Participant’s Termination of Employment, all references to the Participant’s Termination
of Employment shall be construed to mean a “separation from service,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)
(a “Separation from Service”), and the Participant shall not be considered to have a Termination of Employment
unless such termination constitutes a Separation from Service with respect to the Participant.

 

    A-2 

     

    

  

5.          Employment
Relationship. Unless otherwise provided in a written employment agreement or by applicable law, Participant’s employment
by the Company or any Subsidiary shall be on an at-will basis, and the employment relationship may be terminated at any time by
either Participant or the Company or Subsidiary for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause. Any question as to whether and
when there has been a Termination of Employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Administrator, and
its determination shall be final.

 

6.          Conformity
to Applicable Law. You acknowledge that the Plan, the Award Agreement and this Exhibit A are intended to conform to the extent
necessary with all Applicable Laws, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and
any and all regulations and rules promulgated thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and state securities laws and
regulations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan shall be administered, and the Restricted Share Units are
granted, only in such a manner as to conform to Applicable Law. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan, the Award
Agreement and this Exhibit A shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to Applicable Law.

 

7.          Limitations
Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Award Agreement or this Exhibit A, if
you are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Plan, the Restricted Share Units, including Restricted Share Units resulting
from dividend equivalent rights, and the Award Agreement and this Exhibit A shall be subject to any additional limitations set
forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange
Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Award Agreement
and this Exhibit A shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

 

8.          Additional
Disclosure. Along with the Award Agreement, you also received a copy of the official prospectus summarizing the principal features
of the Plan. Please review the plan prospectus carefully so that you fully understand your rights and benefits under your Award
and the limitations, restrictions and vesting provisions applicable to the Award.
