not a Global Security, (i) payment of interest on an Interest Payment Date will be made by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security
Register; and all other payments will be made by check against surrender of this Security; (ii) all
payments by check will be made in next-day funds (i.e., funds that become available on the day
after the check is cashed); and (iii) notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, with respect to
any payment of any amount due on this Security, if this Security is in a denomination of at least
$1,000,000 and the Holder hereof at the time of surrender hereof or, in the case of any payment of
interest on any Interest Payment Date, the Holder thereof on the related Regular Record Date
delivers a written request to the Paying Agent to make such payment by wire transfer at least five
Business Days before the date such payment becomes due, together with appropriate wire transfer
instructions specifying an account at a bank in New York, New York, the Company shall make such

manner described above; and provided further, that notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the
contrary, if this Security is a Global Security, payment shall be made pursuant to the Applicable
Procedures of the Depositary as permitted in said Indenture.

[Form of Reverse of Note]

     This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of senior securities of the Company (herein
called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated
as of September 19, 2006 (herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned
to it in such instrument), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.
(formerly, The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”,
which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the
Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities
thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the
series designated on the face hereof limited in aggregate principal amount to $750,000,000 (plus
such additional amounts of Securities of this series as may be authorized for issuance from time to
time in the manner set forth in the Indenture).

     The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 days’ nor more
than 60 days’ notice, at any time, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at a
Redemption Price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this
series to be redeemed or (2) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of
the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities of this series to be
redeemed, not including any portion of these payments of interest accrued as of the date on which
the Securities of this series are to be redeemed, discounted to the date on which the Securities of
this series are to be redeemed on a semi-annual basis assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day months, at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 0.25%, plus accrued interest to the Redemption
Date, but interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will
be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at
the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided
in the Indenture.

Price.

     “Calculation Agent” means The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.

     “Comparable Treasury Issue” means a United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation
Agent which has a maturity comparable to the remaining maturity of the Securities of this series
being redeemed that would be used in accordance with customary financial practice to price new
issues of corporate debt securities with a maturity comparable to the remaining maturity of the
Securities of this series being redeemed.

     “Comparable Treasury Price” means the result of the calculation of the Calculation Agent of
the average of the Reference Dealer Quotations of the Comparable Treasury Issue provided by each
Reference Dealer, after the Calculation Agent has eliminated the highest and lowest Reference
Dealer Quotations; provided, that, if the Calculation Agent obtains fewer than

R-1

 

three Reference Dealer Quotations, it will calculate the average of all of the Reference
Dealer Quotations and not eliminate any Reference Dealer Quotations.

     “Quotation Agent” means UBS Securities LLC or its successor.

     “Reference Dealers” means UBS Securities LLC or its successor and two or more other primary
U.S. Government securities dealers in New York City appointed by the Company as reference dealers.

Reference Dealer and as Quotation Agent.

     “Reference Dealer Quotations” means each of the bid and ask prices for the Comparable Treasury
Issue as of 5:00 p.m. on the third Business Day before the Redemption Date as provided by the
Reference Dealers to the Quotation Agent, Calculation Agent and Trustee.

     In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this
series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder
hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

     The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of
this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security,
in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

     If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and
the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the
Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the
time Outstanding of all series to be affected (considered together as one class for this purpose).
The Indenture also contains provisions (i) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected under the Indenture
(considered together as one class for this purpose), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of
such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and (ii)
permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding
of any series to be affected under the Indenture (with each such series considered separately for
this purpose), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past
defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor
or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

     As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security
shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall

R-2

 

have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect
to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to
institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee
indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction
inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days
after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any
suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal
hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

     No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture
shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in
the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

     As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the
transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security
for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the
principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing,
and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.

     The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof, with a minimum denomination of $2,000.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of
this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and
of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the
same.

     No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
payable in connection therewith.

     Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the
Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be
overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

     This Security and the Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law
of the State of New York.

     All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture.

PART 2 — SHARE OPTION PLAN

2.1 Participation

Options shall be granted only to Eligible Employees and Eligible Directors.

 

-2-

 

2.2 Administration of Share Option Plan

The Share Option Plan shall be administered by the Committee.

2.3 Price

The exercise price per Share of any Option shall be not less than one hundred per cent (100%) of
the Fair Market Value on the date of grant.

2.4 Grant of Option

The Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, may at any time authorize the granting of
Options to such Eligible Employees and Eligible Directors as it may select for the number of Shares
that it shall designate, subject to the provisions of the Share Option Plan. The date of grant of
an Option shall be (i) the date such grant was approved by the Committee for recommendation to the
Board, provided the Board approves such grant; or (ii) for a grant of an Option not approved by the
Committee for recommendation to the Board, the date such grant was approved by the Board.

Each Option granted to an Eligible Employee or to an Eligible Director shall be evidenced by a
stock option agreement with terms and conditions consistent with the Share Option Plan and as
approved by the Board on the recommendation of the Committee (which terms and conditions need not
be the same in each case and may be changed from time to time, subject to section 5.7 of the Plan
and the approval of any material changes by the Stock Exchange).

2.5 Terms of Options

The Option Period shall be ten years from the date such Option is granted or such lesser duration
as the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, may determine at the date of grant, and may
thereafter be reduced with respect to any such Option as provided in Section 2.8 hereof covering
termination of employment or death of the Optionee; provided, however, that at any time the expiry
date of the Option Period in respect of any outstanding Option under this Plan (either before or
after its amendment or restatement on May 3, 2007) should be determined to occur either during a
Blackout Period or within ten business days following the expiry of the Blackout Period, the expiry
date of such Option Period shall be deemed to be the date that is the tenth business day following
the expiry of the Blackout Period.

Unless otherwise determined from time to time by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee,
Options may be exercised (in each case to the nearest full Share) during the Option Period as
follows:

	(a)	 	at any time during the first year of the Option Period, the Optionee may purchase up to 33
1/3% of the total number of Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to his or her Option; and

	(b)	 	at any time during each additional year of the Option Period the Optionee may purchase an
additional 33 1/3% of the total number of Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to his or her
Option plus any Shares not purchased in accordance with the preceding subsection (a) until, in
the third year of the Option Period, 100% of the Option will be exercisable.

 

-3-

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options shall become exercisable at the rate of at least 20% per
year over five years from the date the Option is granted, subject to reasonable conditions such as
continued employment. However, in the case of an Option granted to officers, directors or
consultants of the Company or any of its Affiliates, the Option may become fully exercisable,
subject to reasonable conditions such as continued employment, at any time or during any period
established by the Company or any of its Affiliates.

Except as set forth in Section 2.8, no Option may be exercised unless the Optionee is at the time
of such exercise:

	(a)	 	in the case of an Eligible Employee, in the employ of the Company or an Affiliate and shall
have been continuously so employed since the grant of his Option, but absence on leave, having the
approval of the Company or such Affiliate, shall not be considered an interruption of employment
for any purpose of the Share Option Plan; or

	(b)	 	in the case of an Eligible Director, a director of the Company or an Affiliate and shall have
been such a director continuously since the grant of his Option.

The exercise of any Option will be contingent upon receipt by the Company of cash payment of the
full purchase price of the Shares being purchased. No Optionee or his legal representatives or
legatees will be, or will be deemed to be, a holder of any Shares subject to an Option, unless and
until certificates for such Shares are issued to him or them under the terms of the Share Option
Plan.

2.6 Share Appreciation Right

A Participant may, if at any time determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee,
have the right (the “Right”), when entitled to exercise an Option, to terminate such Option in
whole or in part (the “Terminated Option”) by notice in writing to the Company and, in lieu of
receiving the Shares (the “Option Shares”) to which the Terminated Option relates, to receive the
number of Shares, disregarding fractions, which is equal to the quotient obtained by:

	 	(a)	 	subtracting the Option exercise price per Share from the Fair Market Value per Share on
the day immediately prior to the exercise of the Right and multiplying the remainder by the
number of Option Shares; and

	 	(b)	 	dividing the product obtained under Section 2.6(a) by the Fair Market Value per Share
on the day immediately prior to the exercise of the Right.

If a Right is granted in connection with an Option, it is exercisable only to the extent and on
the same conditions that the related Option is exercisable. For greater certainty, for purposes
of the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under Section 5.1 of the Plan, in the
event of an exercise of a Right in respect of an Option, the number of Shares available for
issuance under the Plan will be reduced by the number of Shares issued upon exercise of the
Right in respect of such Option rather than the number of Shares to which the Terminated Option
relates.

2.7 Lapsed Options

If Options are surrendered, terminated or expire without being exercised in whole or in part, new
Options may be granted covering the Shares not purchased under such lapsed Options,
subject, in the case of the cancellation of an Option in connection with the grant of a new Option
to the same person on different terms, to the consent of the Stock Exchange.

 

-4-

 

2.8 Effect of Termination of Employment or Death

If an Optionee:

	(a)	 	dies while employed by or while a director of the Company or its Affiliate, any Option held by
him at the date of death shall become exercisable in whole or in part, but only by the person or
persons to whom the Optionee’s rights under the Option shall pass by the Optionee’s will or
applicable laws of descent and distribution. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the
recommendation of the Committee, all such Options shall be exercisable only to the extent that the
Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of his death and only for six months after
the date of death or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect thereof, whichever is
sooner;

	(b)	 	ceases to be employed by or act as a director of the Company or its Affiliate for cause, no
Option held by such Optionee will, unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation
of the Committee, be exercisable following the date on which such Optionee ceases to be so employed
or ceases to be a director, as the case may be; or

	(c)	 	ceases to be employed by or act as a director of the Company or its Affiliate for any reason
other than cause then, unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the
Committee, any Option held by such Optionee at the effective date thereof shall become exercisable
in whole or in part for a period of up to six months thereafter, but in no event less than 30 days,
subject to the earlier expiration of the Option Period.

2.9 Effect of Takeover Bid

If a bona fide offer (the “Offer”) for Shares is made to the Optionee or to shareholders generally
or to a class of shareholders which includes the Optionee, which Offer, if accepted in whole or in
part, would result in the offeror exercising control over the Company within the meaning of
subsection 1(3) of the Ontario Securities Act (as amended from time to time), then the Company
shall, immediately upon receipt of notice of the Offer, notify each Optionee currently holding an
Option of the Offer, with full particulars thereof, whereupon, notwithstanding Section 2.5 hereof,
such Option may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee so as to permit the Optionee to
tender the Shares received upon such exercise (the “Optioned Shares”) pursuant to the Offer.

2.10 Effect of the Amalgamation or Merger

If the Company amalgamates or merges with or into another corporation, any Shares receivable on the
exercise of an Option shall be converted into the securities, property or cash which the
Participant would have received upon such amalgamation or merger if the Participant had exercised
his Option immediately prior to the record date applicable to such amalgamation or merger, and the
option price shall be adjusted appropriately by the Board and such adjustment shall be binding for
all purposes of the Share Option Plan. Any such adjustment shall be in accordance with regulatory
policies.

 

-5-

 

2.11 Adjustment in Shares Subject to the Plan

If there is any change in the Shares through the declaration of stock dividends of Shares or
consolidations, subdivisions or reclassification of Shares, or otherwise, the number of Shares
available under the Share Option Plan, the Shares subject to any Option, and the Option price
thereof shall be adjusted appropriately by the Board and such adjustment shall be effective and
binding for all purposes of the Share Option Plan.

2.12 Loans to Employees

Subject to applicable law, the Board may at any time authorize the Company to loan money to an
Eligible Employee (which for the purpose of this section 2.12 excludes any director or executive
officer (or equivalent thereof) of the Company), on such terms and conditions as the Board may
reasonably determine, to assist such Eligible Employee to exercise an Option held by him or her.
Such terms and conditions shall include, in any event, interest at prevailing market rates, a term
not in excess of one year, and security in favour of the Company represented by that number of
Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option in respect of which such loan was made or
equivalent security which equals the loaned amount divided by the Fair Market Value of the Shares
on the date of exercise of the Option, which security may be granted on a non-recourse basis.

2.13 Transfer of Options

Options are non-transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by Section 422 of the Code, the Board,
in its discretion, may permit distribution of an Option to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in
which the Option is to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor).

2.14 United States Residents

Subject to Sections 2.14(b), (c) and (d) of this Plan, any Option granted under this Plan to an
Optionee who is a citizen or resident of the United States (including its territories, possessions
and all areas subject to its jurisdiction) (a “U.S. Optionee”) shall be an “incentive stock option”
within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code (provided, for purposes of this Section 2.14 only, a
U.S. Optionee who is a director is then also an officer or employee of the Company or one of its
Affiliates). In addition, no provision of this Plan, as it may be applied to a U.S. Optionee,
shall be construed so as to be inconsistent with any provision of Section 422 of the Code.

Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to each

PART 3 — SHARE BONUS PLAN

3.1 Participants

The Board on the recommendation of the Committee, shall have the right, subject to Section 3.2, to
issue or reserve for issuance, for no cash consideration, to any Eligible Employee or Eligible
Director any number of Shares as a discretionary bonus subject to such provisos and restrictions as
the Board may determine.

3.2 Number of Shares

The aggregate maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to Section 3.1 will be limited
to 2,900,000 Shares. Shares reserved for issuance and issued under the Share Bonus Plan shall be
subject to the limitations set out in Section 5.1.

The Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, in its absolute discretion, shall have the right
to reallocate any of the Shares reserved for issuance under the Share Bonus Plan for future
issuance under the Share Option Plan or the Share Purchase Plan and, in the event that any Shares
specifically reserved under the Share Bonus Plan are reallocated to the Share Option Plan or the
Share Purchase Plan, as the case may be, the aggregate maximum number of Shares reserved under the
Share Bonus Plan will be reduced to that extent. In no event will the number of Shares allocated
for issuance under the Share Bonus Plan exceed 2,900,000 Shares.

3.3 Necessary Approvals

The obligation of the Company to issue and deliver any Shares pursuant to an award made under the
Share Bonus Plan will be subject to all necessary approvals of any securities regulatory authority
having jurisdiction over the Shares.

PART 4 — SHARE PURCHASE PLAN

4.1 Participants

Participants in the Share Purchase Plan will be Eligible Employees who have been continuously
employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates on a full-time basis for at least 12 consecutive
months and who have been designated by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, as
participants in the Share Purchase Plan (“Share Purchase Plan Participants”). The Board, on the
recommendation of the Committee, shall have the right, in its absolute discretion, to waive such
12-month period or to refuse any Eligible Employee or group of Eligible Employees the right of
participation or continued participation in the Share Purchase Plan.

4.2 Election to Participate in the Share Purchase Plan and Participant’s Contribution

Any Share Purchase Plan Participant may elect to contribute money (the “Participant’s
Contribution”) to the Share Purchase Plan in any calendar year if the Share Purchase Plan
Participant delivers to the Company a written direction in form and substance satisfactory to the
Company authorizing the Company to deduct from the Share Purchase Plan Participant’s salary, in
equal instalments, the Participant’s Contribution. Such direction will remain effective until
revoked in writing by the Share Purchase Plan Participant or until the Board terminates or suspends
the Share Purchase Plan, whichever is earlier.

 

-8-

 

The Share Purchase Plan Participant’s Contribution as determined by the Board, on the
recommendation of the Committee, shall not exceed 10% of the Share Purchase Plan Participant’s
basic annual salary from the Company and its Affiliates at the time of delivery of the direction,
before deductions, exclusive of any overtime pay, bonuses or allowances of any kind whatsoever (the
“Basic Annual Salary”). In the case of a Share Purchase Plan Participant for whom the Board, on
the recommendation of the Committee, has waived the 12-month employment requirement, the Share
Purchase Plan Participant’s Contribution shall not exceed 10% of his Basic Annual Salary from the
Company and its Affiliates at the time of delivery of the direction, prorated over the remainder of
the calendar year, before deductions and exclusive of any overtime pay, bonuses or allowances of
any kind whatsoever.

4.3 Company’s Contribution

Immediately prior to the date any Shares are issued to a Share Purchase Plan Participant in
accordance with Section 4.4, the Company will credit the Share Purchase Plan Participant with, and
thereafter hold in trust for the Share Purchase Plan Participant, an amount (the “Company’s
Contribution”) equal to the Participant’s Contribution then held in trust by the Company.

4.4 Issue of Shares

On March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 in each calendar year the Company will issue to
each Share Purchase Plan Participant fully paid and non-assessable Shares, disregarding fractions,
which is equal to the aggregate amount of the Participant’s Contribution and the Company’s
Contribution divided by the Issue Price. For the purposes of this Section 4.4, “Issue Price” means
the weighted average price of the Shares on the Stock Exchange, for the 90-day period immediately
preceding the date of issuance. If the Shares are not traded on a Stock Exchange on the date of
issuance, the Issue Price shall be such price per Share as the Board, acting in good faith, may
determine.

The Company shall hold any unused balance of the Participant’s Contribution for a Share Purchase
Plan Participant until used in accordance with the Share Purchase Plan.

4.5 Delivery of Shares

As soon as reasonably practicable following each issuance of Shares to a Share Purchase Plan
Participant pursuant to Section 4.4, the Company will cause to be delivered to the Share Purchase
Plan Participant a certificate in respect of such Shares provided that, if required by applicable
law or the rules and policies of the Stock Exchange, a restrictive legend shall be inscribed on the
certificate, which legend shall state that the Shares shall not be transferable for such period as
may be prescribed by law or by any regulatory authority or Stock Exchange.

4.6 Effect of Termination of Employment or Death

If a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason or
receives notice from the Company of the termination of his or her employment, the Share Purchase
Plan Participant’s participation in the Share Purchase Plan will be deemed to be terminated and any
portion of the Participant’s Contribution then held in trust shall be paid to the Share Purchase
Plan Participant or his estate or successor as the case may be.

4.7 Effect of Amalgamation or Merger

If the Company amalgamates or merges with or into another corporation, each Share Purchase Plan
Participant to whom Shares are to be issued will receive, on the date on which any Shares would
otherwise have been delivered to the Share Purchase Plan Participant in accordance with Section
4.5, the securities, property or cash to which the Share Purchase Plan Participant would have been
entitled on such amalgamation, consolidation or merger had the Shares been issued immediately prior
to the record date of such amalgamation or merger.

PART 5 — GENERAL

5.1 Number of Shares

The aggregate number of Shares that may be reserved for issuance under the Plan shall not exceed

	(a)	 	that may be reserved for issuance to Insiders for options granted under the Plan (or when
combined with all of the Company’s other security based compensation arrangements) shall not exceed
10% of the Company’s outstanding issue from time to time;

	(b)	 	that may be issued to Insiders for options granted under the Plan (or when combined with all of

non-diluted basis, that are issued and outstanding as of the date that any Shares are issued or
reserved for issuance pursuant to an award under the Plan to an Insider or such Insider’s
Associates, excluding any Shares issued under the Plan during the immediately preceding 12 month
period.

5.2 Transferability

Any benefits, rights and options accruing to any Participant in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Plan shall not be transferable unless specifically provided herein. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 2.13, during the lifetime of a Participant, all benefits, rights and
options may only be exercised by the Participant.

5.3 Employment

Nothing contained in any Plan shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to
employment or continuance of employment with the Company or any Affiliate, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment at any
time. Participation in any Plan by a Participant is voluntary.

shareholders of the Company. Any Option exercised before shareholder approval is obtained shall be

The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares in accordance with the Plan is subject to
the approval of any Stock Exchange or governmental authority having jurisdiction in respect of the
Shares which may be required in connection with the authorization, issuance or sale of such Shares
by the Company. If any Shares cannot be issued to any Participant for any reason including,
without limitation, the failure to obtain such approval, the obligation of the Company to issue
such Share shall terminate and any Participant’s Contribution or option price paid to the Company
shall be returned to the Participant.

5.6 Income Taxes

As a condition of, and prior to participation in, the Plan, a Participant shall, at the Company’s
request, authorize the Company in writing to withhold from any remuneration or consideration
whatsoever payable to such Participant hereunder, any amounts required by any taxing authority to
be withheld for taxes of any kind as a consequence of such participation in the Plan.

of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed;

derogating from or otherwise adversely affecting the terms of an Option which is outstanding
at the time of such amendment without the written consent of the holder of such Option;

	(c)	 	the expiry date of an Option Period in respect of an Option shall not be more than ten years

to Plan).

If the Plan is terminated, the provisions of the Plan and any administrative guidelines and other
rules and regulations adopted by the Board and in force on the date of termination will continue in
effect as long as any Option or any rights pursuant thereto remain outstanding and, notwithstanding
the termination of the Plan, the Board shall remain able to make such amendments to the Plan or the
Options as they would have been entitled to make if the Plan were still in effect.

5.8 Foreign Private Issuer Status

If, and for so long as, the Company is not a Foreign Private Issuer or if the directors and
officers of the Company otherwise become subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, then
notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary:
