increased profits by encouraging capital accumulation and share ownership.

3. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. The shares subject to the Plan shall be Shares.
The Shares for which Options are granted shall be authorized but unissued
Shares. The aggregate number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan is
limited to 14,000,000 subject to increase or decrease by reason of amalgamation,

<PAGE>
                                       -4-

exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares that were subject thereto shall,
unless this Plan shall have been terminated, become available for future grant
under this Plan.

Administrators. Subject to Section 10 hereof, the Administrators shall have the
power and authority to:

            the Plan in circumstances which they determine to be exceptional;

      (e)   delegate any or all of their power and authority under (a), (b), (c)
            and (d) above to such persons or groups of persons on such terms and
            on such conditions as the Administrators may in their absolute
            discretion determine, and without limiting the generality of the
            foregoing, such delegations(s) may be with respect to those aspects
            of the Plan relating to directors, officers and employees of the
            Corporation or its Subsidiaries; and

      (f)   take such other steps as they determine to be necessary or desirable
            to give effect to the Plan.

Any decision, approval or determination made by a person or group of persons
delegated the ability to make such decision, approval or determination pursuant
to (e) above shall be deemed to be a decision, approval or determination, as the
case may be, of the Administrators.

5. ELIGIBLE PERSONS. Such directors, officers, employees and Service Providers
of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries as are designated by the Administrators
shall be entitled to participate in the Plan.

6. AGREEMENT. All Options granted hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement
between the Corporation and the Participant substantially in the form of the
applicable agreement set out in Schedule 1, or any other form of agreement
acceptable to the Administrators.

7. GRANT OF OPTIONS. Subject to Sections 3 and 10, the Administrators may, from
time to time, grant Options to Participants to purchase that number of Shares
that the Administrators, in their absolute discretion, determine. In the absence
of any provision in the terms of the grant to the contrary, any Option granted
to a U.S. Participant (other than a U.S. Participant who is a Service Provider
or is a director and not also an employee of the Corporation or a Subsidiary)
shall be (a) an Incentive Option with respect to the maximum number of Shares
permissible under the Plan, and (b) a Non-Incentive Option with respect to all
other Shares.

8. PARTICIPANTS' RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLANS. Participants, other than U.S.
Participants, may, in their sole discretion, elect to have some or all of the
Options granted to

<PAGE>
                                       -5-

them granted to a Trust governed by a registered retirement savings plan
established by and for the sole benefit of such Participant. Such election must
be made prior to the execution of the agreement referred to in Section 6 and
shall be evidenced in such agreement. For the purposes of this Plan, Options
held by Trusts established for the benefit of the Participant shall be
considered to be held by that Participant.

9. PARTICIPANTS' PERSONAL HOLDING CORPORATION. Participants who are Canadian
Participants may, in their sole discretion, elect to have some or all of any
Options granted to a Personal Holding Corporation. Such election must be made
prior to the execution of the agreement referred to in Section 6 and shall be
evidenced in such agreement. For the purposes of this Plan, Options held by the
Personal Holding Corporation of a Canadian Participant shall be considered to be
held by that Participant. Any Options held by the Personal Holding Corporation
of a Canadian Participant shall terminate immediately upon that corporation
ceasing to qualify as a Personal Holding Corporation as provided by Section 1(k)
hereof.

10. LIMIT ON RESERVATION AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES.

      (a)   The aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to
            Options granted under the Plan and any other share compensation
            arrangement:

            (i)   shall not exceed 15% of the aggregate Shares outstanding on
                  the date of grant;

            (ii)  to any Participant, shall not exceed 5% of the aggregate
                  Shares outstanding on the date of grant; and

            (iii) to members of the Board other than such members who, on the
                  date of grant, are also officers or employees of the
                  Corporation or a Subsidiary, shall not exceed 0.5% of the
                  aggregate Shares outstanding on the date of grant (provided
                  that, for greater clarity, Shares reserved for issuance
                  pursuant to Options granted to members of the Board who were
                  officers or employees on the dates of the respective grants,
                  shall not be included for the purposes of determining whether
                  such number of Shares reserved for issuance exceeds 0.5% of
                  the aggregate Shares outstanding on the date of grant).

      (b)   The aggregate number of Shares which may be issued, within a
            one-year period, pursuant to Options granted under the Plan and any
            other share compensation arrangement:

            (i)   to insiders, shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate Shares
                  outstanding on the date of grant; and

            (ii)  to any one insider, together with such insider's associates,
                  shall not exceed 5% of the aggregate Shares outstanding on the
                  date of grant;

            excluding Shares issued pursuant to share compensation arrangements
            over the preceding one-year period.

<PAGE>
                                       -6-

11. EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price per Share shall be not less than the Fair
Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted and, with respect to
grants to Substantial Shareholders who are also U.S. Participants, not less than
110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted.

12. TERM OF OPTION. The term of each Option hereafter granted shall be
determined by the Administrators, provided that no Option shall be exercisable
after ten years from the date on which it is granted.

13. SHARES AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE. Subject to Sections 16 and 17, the Shares
subject to each Option granted shall become available for purchase by the
Participant on the date or dates determined by the Administrators when the
Option is granted.

14. EXERCISE OF OPTION. An Option may be exercised at any time, or from time to
time, during its term as to any number of whole Shares which are then available
for purchase. A Participant electing to exercise an Option on his or her own
behalf or on behalf of a Trust or Personal Holding Corporation shall give
written notice of the election to the Administrators, substantially in the form
of the applicable election set out in Schedule 2, or in any other form
acceptable to the Administrators. The aggregate amount to be paid for the Shares
to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall accompany the written
notice.

      Upon actual receipt by the Corporation of written notice and a cheque for
the aggregate exercise price, the person (including a trustee, in the case of
the exercise of Options by a Trust) exercising the Option shall be registered on
the books of the Corporation as the holder of the appropriate number of Shares.
No person shall enjoy any part of the rights or privileges of a holder of Shares
subject to Options until that person becomes the holder of record of those
Shares.

15. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. If the number of outstanding Shares is materially
affected as a result of the amalgamation or merger of the Corporation with
another corporation, a rights offering, or the reclassification, consolidation
or subdivision of the Shares, the Participant shall be entitled, upon payment of
the consideration paid by the holders of Shares who received securities and/or
property in the course of the amalgamation, merger, rights offering,
reclassification, consolidation or subdivision, to acquire those securities
and/or property that the Participant would have received as a result of that
event if the Participant had exercised the Option immediately before that event
occurred.

16. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination,
the Options granted to the affected Participant or to a Trust established for
the benefit of such Participant or to a Personal Holding Corporation of such
Participant may be exercised only before the earlier of,

            (i)   the expiry of the Options; and

            (ii)  60 days from the date of the Event of Termination (unless the
                  Event of Termination is the total disability, retirement or
                  death of the Participant);

            (iii) three years from the date of the Event of Termination (if the
                  Event of Termination relates to the total and permanent
                  disability or retirement of the Participant); or

<PAGE>
                                       -7-

            (iv)  365 days from the date of the Event of Termination (if the
                  Event of Termination relates to the death of the Participant);

and, except as provided below in respect of an Event of Termination relating to
the death of a Participant, only in respect of Shares which were available for
purchase at the date of the Event of Termination. The right to purchase Shares
which have not yet become available for purchase shall, except as provided below
in respect of an Event of Termination relating to the death of a Participant,
cease immediately on the date of the Event of Termination. All Options granted
to a Participant shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
the terms relating to such grant of Options, immediately vest and be exercisable
upon the death of such Participant and all Shares subject to such Options shall
be immediately available for purchase.

17. AMALGAMATION, LIQUIDATION OR CHANGE OF CONTROL.

            If there is:

            (i)   a consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Corporation
                  with or into any other Corporation whereby the voting
                  shareholders of the Corporation immediately prior to such
                  event receive less than 50% of the voting shares of the
                  consolidated, merged or amalgamated corporation;

            (ii)  a sale by the Corporation of all or substantially all of the
                  Corporation's undertakings and assets; or

            (iii) a proposal by or with respect to the Corporation being made in
                  connection with a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of
                  the Corporation,

all unvested Options held by a Participant shall immediately vest and be
exercisable by such Participant.

            If a take-over bid (within the meaning of the Securities Act
(Ontario)), other than a take-over bid exempt from the requirements of Part XX
of such act pursuant to subsections 93(1)(b) or (c) thereof, is made for the
Common Shares with a per-share offer price (the "Offer Price") greater than or
equal to the exercise price in respect of an Option and such take-over bid
permits tendering by notice of guaranteed delivery, each Participant shall have
the right to conditionally exercise all such Options held by the Participant,
whether vested or unvested, such exercise to be conditional only upon completion
of the take-over bid, and to tender the Common Shares subject to such Options to
the take-over bid by notice of guaranteed delivery, provided that arrangements
for payment of the exercise price in compliance with applicable law are made.
The Corporation will take all reasonable steps necessary to facilitate or
guarantee the exercise by a Participant of the rights hereinbefore described
including, without limitation, to repurchase, on the consummation of such a
take-over bid, each Option held by a Participant at a purchase price equal to
the difference between the exercise price of such Option and the Offer Price in
circumstances where such a take-over bid does not permit the tendering thereto
by notice of guaranteed delivery.

18. NON-TRANSFERABILITY. Options may be exercised only by a Participant, Trust
or Personal Holding Corporation and, upon a Participant's death, the legal
representative of his or her estate or any other person who acquires his or her
rights in respect of an Option by bequest or inheritance. A person exercising an
Option may subscribe for Shares only in his or her own

<PAGE>
                                       -8-

name, on behalf of a Trust (provided he or she is not a U.S. Participant)
established for his or her sole benefit, in the name of his or her Personal
Holding Corporation (provided he or she is not a U.S. Participant) or in his or
her capacity as a legal representative. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign,
pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Options contrary to the
provisions of this Plan, or upon the levy of any attachment or similar process
upon the Options or upon a Participant's beneficial rights to such Options or to
exercise same, the Options and such rights shall, at the election of the Board,
cease and terminate immediately.

19. TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Board may terminate this Plan at any time in its
absolute discretion. If the Plan is so terminated, no further Options shall be
granted but the Options then outstanding shall continue in full force and effect
in accordance with the provisions of this Plan.

20. COMPLIANCE WITH STATUTES AND REGULATIONS. The granting of Options and the
sale and delivery of Shares under this Plan shall be carried out in compliance
with applicable statutes and with the regulations of governmental authorities
and applicable stock exchanges. If the Administrators determine in their
discretion that, in order to comply with any such statutes or regulations,
certain action is necessary or desirable as a condition of or in connection with
the granting of an Option or the issue or purchase of Shares under an Option,
that Option may not be exercised in whole or in part unless that action shall
have been completed in a manner satisfactory to the Administrators.

21. RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT. Nothing contained in this Plan or in any Option granted
under this Plan shall confer upon any person any rights to continued employment
with the Corporation or interfere in any way with the rights of the Corporation
in connection with the employment or termination of employment of any such
person.

22. AMENDMENT OF FORMER PLAN. This Plan amends and restates the Corporation's
Restated 1986 Common Share Option Plan, as amended through April 19, 2004. For
greater certainty, any Options outstanding under the Corporation's Restated 1986
Common Share Option Plan, as amended, as at the date hereof shall continue in
full force and effect in accordance with the terms of such Options, except as
modified hereby.

23. FUTURE AMENDMENTS TO THE PLAN. The provisions of this Plan may be amended at
any time and from time to time by resolution of the Board, provided that any
required shareholder approval and other regulatory or stock exchange approval of
the amended form of the Plan is received prior to the issuance of any Shares of
the Corporation on the exercise of any Options granted under the provisions of
the amended form of the Plan and, provided further, that no such amendment may
materially and adversely affect any Options previously granted to a Participant
under this Plan without the prior consent of such Participant.

24. GOVERNING LAW. The Plan, and any and all determinations made and actions
taken in connection with the Plan, shall be governed by and construed in
