STRATEGIC PARTNERS' ABILITY TO CAUSE AN INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING. If an Initial Public Offering has not occurred by June 1, 2004, then, provided that a written notice invoking this Section 15.1 addressed to the Corporation and signed by such number of Strategic Partners as is required to represent a majority of the issued and outstanding Common Shares and other equity securities of the Corporation, is delivered to the Corporation, the Strategic Partners, the Management Shareholders and the Non-Employee Directors, then the Strategic Partners which shall have executed such notice (the "Exiting Partners"), acting jointly and with mutual consent, shall be entitled, on behalf of the Corporation, to enter into discussions with one or more securities dealers of recognised standing in Canada and/or the United States with a view to obtaining a written representation (in this Article 15, a "Representation") addressed to such Exiting Partners and to the Corporation stating that such securities dealer(s) is highly confident that it could at that time form and lead a syndicate of underwriters to complete an Initial Public Offering which would give rise to gross proceeds from the offering (inclusive of proceeds to the Corporation and the Shareholders) in excess of US$20 million. For greater certainty, the allocation of available investor demand in the offering between the shares that the Corporation desires to issue and sell, on the one hand, and the shares which the Shareholders entitled to Piggyback Registration rights desire to sell, on the other hand, shall be determined in accordance with the priority rules of Section 4(a) of Schedule "13.1". In the event that such a Representation is obtained, then the Corporation will, in co-operation with the Strategic Partners and the Founding Shareholder, forthwith take all reasonable steps to implement and give effect to an Initial Public Offering as contemplated by the Representation. In this regard, the Strategic Partners shall form a steering committee to act as a point of contact for the Corporation to facilitate the co-operative process by which the Corporation will conduct itself in pursuing the Initial Public Offering initiated by the Exiting Partners. Management of the Corporation will be directed to ensure that such steering committee is consulted and kept informed on a regular basis.
