Company’s shares) in Canada or the United States whether pursuant to: (i) a final prospectus for

pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission; or (ii) pursuant to a reverse take-over, statutory amalgamation, statutory
arrangement or similar transaction involving the Company and which, in each case, results in the
common stock of the Company or the common stock of the resulting issuer being listed on a
recognized stock exchange (or similar system for the quoting and public trading of the Company’s
shares) in Canada or the United States;

          (c) the date of the closing of a sale, lease, or other disposition of all or substantially all
of the Company’s assets or the date of a completion of any corporate reorganization, amalgamation,

prior to such Corporate Reorganization own less than fifty percent of the Company’s voting stock
immediately after such Corporate Reorganization or any transaction or series of related
transactions to which the Company is a party in which excess of fifty percent (“Change of Control”)
of the Company’s voting stock is transferred excluding any Corporate Reorganization enacted solely
for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company; or

          (d) the date as of which the parties hereto terminate this Agreement by written consent of a
majority in interest of the Principal Shareholders.
