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.
