  be, of the Company or its subsidiary. The execution of an Option Agreement shall
  constitute conclusive evidence that it has been completed in compliance with
  this Plan. 

 4.      EXERCISE OF OPTION 

 4.1   When Options May be Exercised

          Subject
  to sections 4.3 and 4.4, an Option may be exercised to purchase any number of
  Shares up to the number of Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time after the
  Grant Date up to 4:00 p.m. local time on the Expiry Date and shall not be exercisable
  thereafter.

 4.2   Manner of Exercise

          The
  Option shall be exercisable by delivering to the Company a notice specifying
  the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised together with
  payment in full of the Option Price for each such Share. Upon notice and payment
  there will be a binding contract for the issue of the Shares in respect of which
  the Option is exercised, upon and subject to the provisions of the Plan. Delivery
  of the Optionee's cheque payable to the Company in the amount of the Option
  Price shall constitute payment of the Option Price unless the cheque is not
  honoured upon presentation in which case the Option shall not have been validly
  exercised. 

 4.3   Vesting of Option Shares

          The
  Directors, subject to the policies of the Exchanges, may determine and impose
  terms upon which each Option shall become Vested in respect of Option Shares.
  Current policies of the TSX Venture Exchange provide that minimum vesting requirements
  shall be 25% of the Option upon TSX Venture Exchange approval and 12 1/2% every
  quarter thereafter which is the vesting period hereby adopted by the directors
  of the Company. 

 4.4   Termination of Employment

          If an
  Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person, his or her Option shall be exercisable
  as follows: 

	 	 (a)      	 Death or Disability 
	 
	 	 	 If the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person,
        due to his or her death or Disability or, in the case of an Optionee that
        is a company, the death or Disability of the person who provides management
        or consulting services to the Company or to any entity controlled 

 5

	 	 	 by the Company, the Option
        then held by the Optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested Unissued
        Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of: 

	 	 	 	 
	 	 	(i)	365 days after the date of death or Disability; and

	 	 	 	 
	 	 	(ii)	 the Expiry Date;

	 	 (b)      	 Termination For Cause 
	 
	 	 	 If the Optionee, or in the case of a Management
        Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases
        to be an Eligible Person as a result of termination for cause, as that
        term is interpreted by the courts of the jurisdiction in which the Optionee,
        or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company,
        of the Optionee's employer, is employed or engaged; any outstanding Option
        held by such Optionee on the date of such termination, whether in respect
        of Option Shares that are Vested or not, shall be cancelled as of that
        date. 

	 
	 	 (c)      	 Early Retirement, Voluntary Resignation or Termination Other than
      For Cause 
	 
	 	 	 If the Optionee or, in the case of a Management
        Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases
        to be an Eligible Person due to his or her retirement at the request of
        his or her employer earlier than the normal retirement date under the
        Company's retirement policy then in force, or due to his or her termination
        by the Company other than for cause, or due to his or her voluntary resignation,
        the Option then held by the Optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested
        Unissued Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of
        the Expiry Date and the date which is 90 days (30 days if the Optionee
        was engaged in Investor Relations Activities) after the Optionee or, in
        the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the
        Optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person. 

	 

 For greater certainty, an Option that had not become Vested
  in respect of certain Unissued Option Shares at the time that the relevant event
  referred to in this paragraph 4.4 occurred, shall not be or become vested or
  exercisable in respect of such Unissued Option Shares and shall be cancelled.

 4.5   Effect of a Take-Over Bid 

          If a
  bona fide offer ( an "Offer") for Shares is made to the Optionee or to
  shareholders of the Company 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 becoming a control person of the Company, within the meaning of
  subsection 1(1) of the Securities Act, the Company shall, immediately upon receipt
  of notice of the Offer, notify each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer,
  whereupon all Option Shares subject to such Option will become Vested and the
  Option may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee so as to permit
  the Optionee to tender the Option Shares received upon such exercise, pursuant
  to the Offer. However, if: 

	 	 (a)      	 the Offer is not completed within the time specified
        therein; or 

	 
	 	 (b)      	 all of the Option Shares tendered by the Optionee
        pursuant to the Offer are not taken up or paid for by the offeror in respect
        thereof, 

 6

 then the Option Shares received upon such exercise, or in
  the case of clause (b) above, the Option Shares that are not taken up and paid
  for, may be returned by the Optionee to the Company and reinstated as authorized
  but unissued Shares and with respect to such returned Option Shares, the Option
  shall be reinstated as if it had not been exercised and the terms upon which
  such Option Shares were to become Vested pursuant to paragraph 4.3 shall be
  reinstated. If any Option Shares are returned to the Company under this paragraph
  4.5, the Company shall immediately refund the exercise price to the Optionee
  for such Option Shares. 

 4.6   Acceleration of Expiry Date 

         If at
  any time when an Option granted under the Plan remains unexercised with respect
  to any Unissued Option Shares, an Offer is made by an offeror, the Directors
  may, upon notifying each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer, declare
  all Option Shares issuable upon the exercise of Options granted under the Plan,
  Vested, and declare that the Expiry Date for the exercise of all unexercised
  Options granted under the Plan is accelerated so that all Options will either
  be exercised or will expire prior to the date upon which Shares must be tendered
  pursuant to the Offer. The Directors shall give each Optionee as much notice
  as possible of the acceleration of the Options under this section, except that
  not less than 5 business days and not more than 35 days notice is required.

 4.7   Effect of a Change of Control

          If a
  Change of Control occurs, all Option Shares subject to each outstanding Option
  will become Vested, whereupon such Option may be exercised in whole or in part
  by the Optionee, subject to the approval of the Exchanges, if necessary. 

 4.8   Exclusion From Severance Allowance,
  Retirement Allowance or Termination Settlement

          If the
  Optionee, or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company,
  the Optionee's employer, retires, resigns or is terminated from employment or
  engagement with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, the loss or limitation,
  if any, pursuant to the Option Agreement with respect to the right to purchase
  Option Shares which were not Vested at that time or which, if Vested, were cancelled,
  shall not give rise to any right to damages and shall not be included in the
  calculation of nor form any part of any severance allowance, retiring allowance
  or termination settlement of any kind whatsoever in respect of such Optionee.

 4.9   Shares Not Acquired

          Any
  Unissued Option Shares not acquired by an Optionee under an Option which has
  expired may be made the subject of a further Option pursuant to the provisions
  of the Plan.

 5.      ADJUSTMENT OF OPTION PRICE
  AND NUMBER OF OPTION SHARES

 5.1   Share Reorganization

          Whenever
  the Company issues Shares to all or substantially all holders of Shares by way
  of a stock dividend or other distribution, or subdivides all outstanding Shares
  into a greater number of Shares, or combines or consolidates all outstanding
  Shares into a lesser number of Shares (each of such events being herein called
  a "Share Reorganization") then effective immediately after the record date for
  such dividend or other distribution or the effective date of such subdivision,
  combination or consolidation, for each Option: 

	 	 (a)      	 the Option Price will be adjusted to a price per Share which
      is the product of: 
	 
	 	 	 (i)      	 the Option Price in effect immediately before that
        effective date or record date; and 

	 
	 	 	 (ii)      	 a fraction, the numerator of which is the total
        number of Shares outstanding on that effective date or record date before
        giving effect to the Share Reorganization, and the denominator of which
        is the total number of Shares that are or would be outstanding immediately
        after such effective date or record date after giving effect to the Share
        Reorganization; and 

	 
	 	 (b)      	 the number of Unissued Option Shares will
        be adjusted by multiplying (i) the number of Unissued Option Shares immediately
        before such effective date or record date by (ii) a fraction which is
        the reciprocal of the fraction described in subsection (a)(ii). 

 5.2   Special Distribution 

          Subject
  to the prior approval of the Exchanges, whenever the Company issues by way of
  a dividend or otherwise distributes to all or substantially all holders of Shares;

	 	 (a)      	 shares of the Company, other than the Shares; 

	 
	 	 (b)      	 evidences of indebtedness; 

	 
	 	 (c)      	 any cash or other assets, excluding cash dividends
        (other than cash dividends which the Board of Directors of the Company
        has determined to be outside the normal course); or 

	 
	 	 (d)      	 rights, options or warrants; 

 then to the extent that such dividend or distribution does
  not constitute a Share Reorganization (any of such non-excluded events being
  herein called a "Special Distribution"), and effective immediately after the
  record date at which holders of Shares are determined for purposes of the Special
  Distribution, for each Option the Option Price will be reduced, and the number
  of Unissued Option Shares will be correspondingly increased, by such amount,
  if any, as is determined by the Board in its sole and unfettered discretion
  to be appropriate in order to properly reflect any diminution in value of the
  Option Shares as a result of such Special Distribution. 

 8

	 5.3  	 Corporate Organization  
	 	 
	  	Whenever there is:

	 	 (a)      	 a reclassification of outstanding Shares, a change
        of Shares into other shares or securities, or any other capital reorganization
        of the Company, other than as described in sections 5.1 or 5.2; 

	 
	 	 (b)      	 a consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company
        with or into another corporation resulting in a reclassification of outstanding
        Shares into other shares or securities or a change of Shares into other
        shares or securities; or 

	 
	 	 (c)      	 a transaction whereby all or substantially all of
        the Company's undertaking and assets become the property of another corporation;
      

 (any such event being herein called a "Corporate Reorganization")
  the Optionee will have an option to purchase (at the times, for the consideration,
  and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Plan) and will accept
  on the exercise of such option, in lieu of the Unissued Option Shares which
  he would otherwise have been entitled to purchase, the kind and amount of shares
  or other securities or property that he would have been entitled to receive
  as a result of the Corporate Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof,
  he had been the holder of all Unissued Option Shares or if appropriate, as otherwise
  determined by the Directors. 

 5.4   Determination of Option Price and Number of Unissued
  Option Shares 

          If any
  questions arise at any time with respect to the Option Price or number of Unissued
  Option Shares deliverable upon exercise of an Option following a Share Reorganization,
  Special Distribution or Corporate Reorganization, such questions shall be conclusively
  determined by the Company's auditor, or, if they decline to so act, any other
  firm of Chartered Accountants in Vancouver, British Columbia, that the Directors
  may designate and who will have access to all appropriate records and such determination
  will be binding upon the Company and all Optionees.

 5.5   Regulatory Approval

          Any
  adjustment to the Option Price or the number of Unissued Option Shares purchasable
  under the Plan pursuant to the operation of any one of paragraphs 5.1, 5.2 or
  5.3 is subject to the approval of the Exchanges and any other governmental authority
  having jurisdiction. 

 6.     MISCELLANEOUS 

 6.1   Right to Employment 

          Neither
  this Plan nor any of the provisions hereof shall confer upon any Optionee any
  right with respect to employment or continued employment with the Company or
  any subsidiary of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the
  Company or any subsidiary of the Company to terminate such employment. 

 6.2   Necessary Approvals 

          The
  Plan shall be effective only upon the approval of the shareholders of the Company
  given by way of an ordinary resolution. Any Options granted under this Plan
  prior to such approval shall only be 

 9

 exercised upon the receipt of such approval. Disinterested
  shareholder approval (as required by the Exchanges) will be obtained for any
  reduction in the exercise price of any Option granted under this Plan if the
  Optionee is an Insider of the Company at the time of the proposed amendment.
  The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares in accordance with
  the Plan is subject to the approval of the Exchanges and any governmental authority
  having jurisdiction. If any Shares cannot be issued to any Optionee for any
  reason, including, without limitation, the failure to obtain such approval,
  then the obligation of the Company to issue such Shares shall terminate and
  any Option Price paid by an Optionee to the Company shall be immediately refunded
  to the Optionee by the Company.

 6.3   Administration of the Plan 

          The
  Directors shall, without limitation, have full and final authority in their
  discretion, but subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to interpret
  the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to
  the Plan and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable
  in respect of the Plan. Except as set forth in section 5.4, the interpretation
  and construction of any provision of the Plan by the Directors shall be final
  and conclusive. Administration of the Plan shall be the responsibility of the
  appropriate officers of the Company and all costs in respect thereof shall be
  paid by the Company. 

 6.4   Income Taxes 

          As a
  condition of and prior to participation in the Plan any Optionee shall on request
  authorize the Company in writing to withhold from any remuneration otherwise
  payable to him or her any amounts required by any taxing authority to be withheld
  for taxes of any kind as a consequence of his or her participation in the Plan.

 6.5   Amendments to the Plan 

          The
  Directors may from time to time, subject to applicable law and to the prior
  approval, if required, of the Exchanges or any other regulatory body having
  authority over the Company or the Plan, suspend, terminate or discontinue the
  Plan at any time, or amend or revise the terms of the Plan or of any Option
  granted under the Plan and the Option Agreement relating thereto, provided that
  no such amendment, revision, suspension, termination or discontinuance shall
  in any manner adversely affect any Option previously granted to an Optionee
  under the Plan without the consent of that Optionee. Any amendments to the Plan
