(ii) Each Orezone 2008 Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or not, shall remain outstanding in accordance with its terms which provide that such Orezone 2008 Option may be exercised by the holder thereof at any time up to and including (but not after) the date that is 30 days after the Effective Time. (iii) The Orezone Warrants, if outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will remain outstanding in accordance with their terms. (iv) The Orezone Convertible Debenture, if outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be terminated and the Debentureholder will receive from IAMGOLD as to 50 per cent of the principal and interest owing thereunder cash and, as to the remaining 50 per cent the principal and interest owing thereunder, IAMGOLD Shares on the terms and conditions set out in the Convertible Debenture Waiver Agreement. (v) Orezone shall undertake a reorganization of capital within the meaning of section 86 of the Tax Act as follows, and in the following order: A. The authorized capital of Orezone will be amended by: I. re-designating the Orezone Shares as Class B Shares and each certificate representing such an outstanding Orezone Share shall, as and from the time such re-designation is effective, represent a Class B Share; and II. the creation of an unlimited number of Class A Shares; and the articles of Orezone shall be deemed to be amended accordingly B. Each issued Class B Share, other than those held by Dissenting Orezone Shareholders, will be exchanged with Orezone for one Class A Share and ● New Orezone Shares. C. Each issued Class B Share held by a Dissenting Orezone Shareholder (for greater certainty, being an Orezone Shareholder who has complied with the Dissent Rights and is ultimately entitled to be paid for its Class B Shares) will be acquired by IAMGOLD in consideration for a debt claim against IAMGOLD to be paid fair value of such Class B Shares pursuant to the Dissent Procedures. D. The stated capital of Orezone for the outstanding Class A Shares will be an amount equal to the stated capital of Orezone for the Class B Shares, less the fair market value of the New Orezone Shares distributed to Orezone Shareholders, other than Dissenting Orezone Shareholders pursuant to section 4 hereof and the paid-up capital of the Class A Shares of Orezone will be reduced accordingly. E. The Class B Shares (including the Class B Shares held by Dissenting Orezone Shareholders and acquired by IAMGOLD pursuant to paragraph 3(a)(vi)(D) hereof) will be cancelled.

Except as set out above, the terms of each IAMGOLD Replacement Option shall be the same as the Orezone 1997 Option exchanged therefor. (viii) With respect to each Class A Share: A. each such Orezone Shareholder, other than IAMGOLD, shall cease to be the holder of such Class A Share on the Effective Date and such holder’s name shall be removed from the share register of Orezone as at the Effective Time; and B.
