SECTION 3.01 Calculation of Arrangement Consideration; Company Certificate.

(a) The aggregate Arrangement consideration (the “Arrangement Consideration”) shall be an amount equal to (i) $183,600,000, minus (ii) Closing Company Net Debt, minus (iii) the amount, if any, by which the Company Transaction Expenses exceed the Company Transaction Expenses Cap, plus (iv) the amount, if any, by which the SPAC Transaction Expenses exceed the SPAC Transaction Expenses Cap, minus (v) the Option and Warrant Value. The Arrangement Consideration minus an amount equal to the Cash Arrangement Consideration (such amount, the “Arrangement Share Consideration Amount”), shall be paid to the Company Shareholders in Holdco Common Shares, which shall be valued at ten dollars ($10.00) per share (provided that, in the event that the delivery of any Holdco Common Shares in the Arrangement would result in the Designated Holders holding any Excess Shares, then the Designated Holders shall receive one (1) Holdco Non-Voting Common Share in lieu of each Holdco Common Share that is an Excess Share), and the Cash Arrangement Consideration shall be paid to certain Company Shareholders in cash. The Arrangement Share Consideration Amount and the Cash Arrangement Consideration shall be allocated among the Company Shareholders pursuant to the Payment Spreadsheet and shall be calculated in accordance with the Calculation Methodology.

(b) At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cause the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, solely in his or her capacity as such, to deliver to SPAC a certificate (the “Company Certificate”) certified by such Chief Financial Officer (solely in his or her capacity as such) setting forth: (i) the Company’s good faith estimate of (A) the Closing Company Net Debt, which must include reasonable supporting materials for the amount of each item included in Closing Company Net Debt, including copies of payoff letters or other documentation from each creditor of the Company setting forth the outstanding principal and interest amount of each item included in Closing Company Net Debt, (B) the Company Transaction Expenses (including reasonable supporting materials for the amount of each item included in Company Transaction Expenses, including any Tax filings with respect to the amount of the Colombian Tax), and (C) the Option and Warrant Value; (ii) based upon the Closing Company Net Debt, Company Transaction Expenses and the Option and Warrant Value, (A) a calculation of the Arrangement Consideration, (B) a calculation of the Exchange Ratio, (C) the Payment Spreadsheet and (D) the Rollover Spreadsheet; and (iii) a list of, and invoices and payment instructions for, all unpaid Company Transaction Expenses to be paid at Closing.

At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, SPAC shall cause the Chief Financial Officer of SPAC, solely in his capacity as such, to deliver to the Company a certificate certifying SPAC’s good faith estimate of the SPAC Transaction Expenses.

(ii) then, immediately following the Company Preferred Share Conversion, each Company Common Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Arrangement Effective Time shall automatically be transferred to Holdco in consideration of the Arrangement Consideration payable to the holders thereof as set forth in the Payment Spreadsheet and pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement; and

(iii) Company Shares, if any, held in the treasury of the Company shall be canceled without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

(c) At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of SPAC, Merger Sub, Holdco or the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

SECTION 3.03 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. On the Closing Date (and after the Merger Effective Time), SPAC shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with a bank or trust company that shall be designated by SPAC and is reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”), the Cash Arrangement Consideration payable to certain Company Shareholders in cash (the “Cash Exchange Fund”). On the Closing Date (and after the Merger Effective Time), Holdco shall deposit, or shall cause Merger Sub to deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of SPAC Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article III, the number of Holdco Common Shares (in either book-entry or certificated form, at Holdco’s election) sufficient to deliver the Holdco Common Shares included in the SPAC Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement (such Holdco Common Shares, the “Securities Exchange Fund”, together with the Cash Exchange Fund and any dividends or distributions with respect to the Securities Exchange Fund (pursuant to this Section 3.03), being hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the “Exchange Fund”). Holdco shall cause the Exchange Agent pursuant to irrevocable instructions, to deliver the Transaction Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement, the Arrangement and the Payment Spreadsheet. Except as contemplated by this Section 3.03 hereof, the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(b) Exchange Procedures. As promptly as practicable after the Merger Effective Time, as the case may be, Holdco shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of SPAC Common Stock entitled to receive the SPAC Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.03 a letter of transmittal, which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to SPAC and the Company (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and shall specify (i) that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the certificates evidencing such SPAC Common Stock (collectively, the “Certificates”) shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent; and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates pursuant to the Letter of Transmittal. Within five (5) Business Days after the surrender to the Exchange Agent of all Certificates held by such holder for cancellation, together with a Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Holdco shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver the SPAC Merger Consideration in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.03, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.03, each Certificate entitled to receive a portion of the SPAC Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 3.02 shall be deemed at all times after the Merger Effective Time, as the case may be, to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the SPAC Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02.

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares of SPAC Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Merger Effective Time with respect to the SPAC Common Stock with a record date after the Merger Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of SPAC Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of such Certificate shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with this Section 3.03. Subject to the effect of escheat, tax or other applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate, SPAC shall pay or cause to be paid to the holder of the certificates representing shares of SPAC Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Merger Effective Time and theretofore paid with respect to such shares of SPAC Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions, with a record date after the Merger Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date occurring after surrender, payable with respect to such shares of SPAC Common Stock.

(d) No Further Rights in Company Shares or SPAC Common Stock. The Transaction Consideration payable upon conversion of the Company Shares or SPAC Common Stock, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid and issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Shares or SPAC Common Stock, as the case may be.

(e) Adjustments to Transaction Consideration. The Transaction Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Holdco Common Shares and Holdco Non-Voting Common Shares occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Arrangement Effective Time.

(f) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of SPAC Common Stock with respect to the SPAC Merger Consideration for one (1) year after the Merger Effective Time shall be delivered to Holdco, upon demand, and any holders of SPAC Common Stock who have not theretofore complied with this Section 3.03 shall thereafter look only to Holdco for the SPAC Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Exchange Fund with respect to the SPAC Merger Consideration remaining unclaimed by holders of SPAC Common Stock, as may be applicable, as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any government entity shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Holdco free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(g) No Liability. None of the Exchange Agent, Holdco or any of its affiliates shall be liable to any holder of Company Shares or SPAC Common Stock for any such Company Shares or SPAC Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law in accordance with this Section 3.03.

(h) Withholding Rights. Each of the Surviving Corporation and Holdco shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Shares or SPAC Common Stock such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law; provided that the parties shall cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to reduce, minimize or eliminate any applicable withholding to the extent reasonably permitted under applicable Laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Holdco, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Shares or SPAC Common Stock (or intended recipients of compensatory payments) in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Holdco.

(i) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Transaction Consideration, as the case may be, that such holder is otherwise entitled to receive pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 3.02.

SECTION 3.04 Treatment of Company Equity Awards. Pursuant to the terms of the Company Equity Plan or other terms and conditions governing each such award and as specified on the Rollover Spreadsheet:

(a) each outstanding Company Option, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Arrangement Effective Time shall, as of the Arrangement Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted (as converted, a “Converted Option Award”), in accordance with the Calculation Methodology, into an option award (x) exercisable for the aggregate number of Holdco Common Shares equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of (i) the number of Company Common Shares exercisable under the Company Option immediately prior to the Arrangement Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio and (y) with a per share exercise price equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest cent) obtained by dividing (i) the per share exercise price under the Company Option immediately prior to the Arrangement Effective Time by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

(c) each outstanding award of Company Restricted Shares that is outstanding immediately prior to the Arrangement Effective Time shall, as of the Arrangement Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted (as converted, a “Converted Restricted Share”), in accordance with the Calculation Methodology, into an award of restricted shares with respect to the aggregate number of Holdco Common Shares equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of (i) the number of Company Common Shares subject to such award of Company Restricted Shares immediately prior to the Arrangement Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

SECTION 3.06 SPAC Warrants.

Each of SPAC, the Company and Holdco will be given a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response to any SEC comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall be given), including by participating with SPAC, the Company or Holdco or their counsel in any discussions or meetings with the SEC. SPAC shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, any applicable rules and regulations of Nasdaq, SPAC Organizational Documents, and this Agreement in the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, any solicitation of proxies thereunder, the calling and holding of the SPAC Stockholders’ Meeting and the Redemption.

(c) If at any time prior to the Merger Effective Time any information relating to SPAC, the Company or Holdco or any of their respective affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by SPAC, the Company or Holdco which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, so that either such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the SPAC Stockholders.

(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of SPAC, the Company and Holdco shall cooperate with each other in the preparation of each of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Registration Statement, and each of the Company and SPAC shall furnish Holdco with all information concerning it and its affiliates as the providing party (after consulting with counsel) may deem reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the Registration Statement, as applicable.

(f) SPAC, the Company and Holdco shall notify each other promptly of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective, of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the Holdco Common Shares or Holdco Warrants issuable in connection with the Arrangement or the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the Registration Statement or for additional information.

Without the prior written consent of the Company, the SPAC Proposals shall be the only matters (other than procedural matters) which SPAC shall propose to be acted on by the SPAC Stockholders at the SPAC Stockholders’ Meeting. SPAC shall include in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus the recommendation of the SPAC Board that the SPAC Stockholders vote in favor of the SPAC Proposals and shall otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval of the SPAC Proposals at the SPAC Stockholders’ Meeting, including by soliciting from its stockholders proxies as promptly as possible in favor of the SPAC Proposals, and shall take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the required vote or consent of its stockholders therefor.

SECTION 8.04 Company Solicitation.

(a) From and after the date hereof until the Merger Effective Time or, if earlier, the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.01, the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to and shall direct its and their Representatives not to, (i) initiate, solicit, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing non-public information), whether publicly or otherwise, any inquiries with respect to, or the making of, any Company Acquisition Proposal, (ii) engage in any negotiations or discussions concerning, or provide access to its properties, books and records or any Confidential Information or data to, any person relating to a Company Acquisition Proposal, (iii) enter into, engage in and maintain discussions or negotiations with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal (or inquiries, proposals or offers or other efforts that would reasonably be expected to lead to any Company Acquisition Proposal) or otherwise cooperate with or assist or participate in, or facilitate any such inquiries, proposals, offers, efforts, discussions or negotiations, (iv) amend or grant any waiver or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of equity securities of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, (v) approve, endorse or recommend, or propose publicly to approve, endorse or recommend, any Company Acquisition Proposal, (vi) approve, endorse, recommend, execute or enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, term sheet, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other written arrangement relating to any Company Acquisition Proposal (each, a “Company Acquisition Agreement”) or any proposal or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal or (vii) resolve or agree to do any of the foregoing or otherwise authorize or permit any of its Representatives to take any such action; provided that it is understood and agreed that any action by the Company Board made in accordance with Section 8.04(b) shall not be deemed to be a breach or violation of Section 8.04(a). The Company shall, and shall instruct and cause the Company Subsidiaries and shall direct each of their respective Representatives to immediately cease any solicitations, discussions or negotiations with any person (other than the parties hereto and their respective Representatives) in connection with a Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company also agrees that it will promptly request each person (other than the parties hereto and their respective Representatives) that has prior to the date hereof executed a confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of acquiring the Company to return or destroy all Confidential Information furnished to such person by or on behalf of it or any of the Company Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.04(a), this Agreement shall not prevent the Company or the Company Board from, prior to obtaining the Company Required Approval, disclosing to the Company Shareholders the receipt or existence of a bona fide Company Acquisition Proposal received after the date hereof that did not result from a material breach of Section 8.04(a), if required by applicable Law; provided, however, that if the Company Board discloses any bona fide Company Acquisition Proposal to the Company Shareholders in accordance with this Section 8.04(b), the Company Board shall, (i) provide SPAC with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments to any such announcement or disclosure of such Company Acquisition Proposal to the Company Shareholders (such review and comment period not to exceed three (3) Business Days upon SPAC’s receipt of any announcement or disclosure) prior to the Company Board making such announcement or disclosure (and consider such comments in good faith and may accept SPACs comments in Company’s sole discretion) and (ii) reaffirm in any such announcement or disclosure to the Company Shareholders the Company Board’s recommendation of this Agreement, the Transactions and that the Company Shareholders approve the Company Arrangement Resolution.

SECTION 8.05 Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) Holdco shall, or shall cause the Company, the Surviving Corporation and each of their respective subsidiaries, as applicable, to provide the employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries who remain employed immediately after the Closing (the “Continuing Employees”) to receive credit for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by Holdco, the Company or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective subsidiaries, other than any defined benefit pension plan, for service accrued or deemed accrued prior to the Closing with the Company or any Company Subsidiary; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefit or the funding of any such benefit. In addition, Holdco shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) cause to be waived any eligibility waiting periods, any evidence of insurability requirements and the application of any pre-existing condition limitations under each of the employee benefit plans established or maintained by Holdco, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective subsidiaries that cover the Continuing Employees or their dependents and (ii) cause any eligible expenses incurred by any Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, during the portion of the plan year in which the Closing occurs, under those health and welfare Plans in which such Continuing Employee participates immediately prior to the Closing to be taken into account under those health and welfare benefit plans of Holdco, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective subsidiaries in which such Continuing Employee participates subsequent to the Closing for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance, and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year. Following the Closing, Holdco shall, or shall cause the Company, the Surviving Corporation and each of their respective subsidiaries, as applicable, to honor all accrued but unused vacation and other paid time off of the Continuing Employees that existed immediately prior to the Closing.

(b) The parties shall cooperate to establish an equity incentive plan for service providers of Holdco and its subsidiaries (the “Holdco Plan”) to be effective after the Closing, which shall provide for an aggregate share reserve thereunder (the “Post-Closing Equity Pool”) equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the Benefits Pool; provided, however, that (i) only up to ten percent (10%) of the Benefits Pool shall be available for grant under the Post-Closing Equity Pool prior to the first anniversary of the Closing and (ii) only up to twelve and a half percent (12.5%) of the Benefits Pool shall be available for grant under the Post-Closing Equity Pool prior to the second anniversary of the Closing; provided further, however, all Converted Option Awards, Converted Restricted Shares and Converted Company RSUs, as provided in accordance with Section 3.04 of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be issued out of the Post-Closing Equity Pool and shall reduce the number of Holdco Common Shares available for issuance under the Holdco Plan immediately following the Closing. Any Holdco Common Shares granted under the Holdco Plan that are forfeited following grant shall be added back to the Post-Closing Equity Pool. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any awards with respect to Company Earn-Out Shares that are allocated to service providers of Holdco and its subsidiaries under the terms of the Transaction Support Agreement shall be provided under a separate equity incentive plan and shall not reduce the Post-Closing Equity Pool.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.05 to the contrary, nothing contained herein, whether express or implied, is or will be deemed to be an establishment, amendment or other modification of any Plan or any employee benefit plan of Holdco or any of its affiliates, or shall limit the right of Holdco or any of its affiliates to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any Plan or other employee benefit plan following the Closing. The parties acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 8.05 are included for their sole benefit, and that nothing in this Section 8.05, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights: (i) in any other person, including any Continuing Employee, any participant in any Plan or employee benefit plan of Holdco or any of its affiliates, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, or (ii) to continued employment with Holdco or any of its affiliates or to any particular term or condition of employment.

SECTION 8.06 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the Holdco Governance Documents shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement or expense reimbursement than are set forth in the Company Governance Documents and the SPAC Organizational Documents, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Merger Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of the Company or SPAC (each such individual, a “D&O Indemnified Party”), unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law. Holdco and the Company agree that with respect to the provisions of the articles, bylaws, limited liability company agreements or other equivalent organizational documents of the Company Subsidiaries relating to indemnification, advancement or expense reimbursement, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years from the Merger Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Closing Date, were directors, managers, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of such Company Subsidiary, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law.

(b) SPAC and the Company shall each obtain, fully pay the premium for, and maintain prior to the Closing fully-paid “tail” insurance policies for, with respect to SPAC, a term of six (6) years from the Closing Date, and with respect to the Company, a term of one (1) or six (6) years from the Closing Date (each a “D&O Tail Policy” and collectively, the “D&O Tail Policies”, and the applicable period for any D&O Tail Policies, the “Tail Period”) with terms and scope of coverage at least as favorable as their respective directors and officers insurance policies; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.06(b) shall relieve Holdco or the Company of its other obligations under this Section 8.06, or allow Holdco or the Company to delay in its performance of its obligations under this Section 8.06 and otherwise to provide indemnification for or make any expense advances with respect to the expenses of any claim for indemnification by a D&O Indemnified Party. Holdco shall cause SPAC and Holdco to maintain the D&O Tail Policies in full force and effect, for their full terms, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by Holdco, the Company and SPAC.

The failure by the Company or SPAC to give notice under this Section 8.07 shall not be deemed to be a breach under this Section 8.07, unless such breach is knowing and with the intent to breach this Section 8.07 and in any event shall not give rise to any additional damages above and beyond the breach of the underlying representation, warranty, covenant, condition or agreement, as the case may be.

(b) Each of the parties shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the Transactions, including promptly notifying the other parties of any communication it or any of its affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement and permitting the other parties to review in advance, and to the extent practicable consult about, any proposed communication by such party to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions. No party to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting.

2.1.

Demand Registration.

At any time and from time to time on or after the expiration of the Lockup Period (as such term is defined in the Transaction Support Agreement), Investors holding at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by all Investors (such Investors, the “Initiating Holders”) may make a written demand for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities (a “Demand Registration”). Any demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. The Company will notify all holders of Registrable Securities of the demand, and each holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify the Company, and provide the information request by the Company to prepare the Registration Statement, within five (5) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from the Company. Upon any such request and provision of such information, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.1.4 and the provisos set forth in Section 3.1.1. The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of two (2) Demand Registrations under this Section 2.1.1 in respect of all Demand Registrations initiated by the Investors.

2.1.2. Effective Registration. A registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority in interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as a Demand Registration or is terminated. For the avoidance of doubt, any terminated Registration Statement shall be counted as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1.

A-4

2.1.3. Underwritten Offering. If a majority in interest of the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise the Company as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. In such event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Initiating Holders.

2.1.4. Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises, in its good faith opinion, the Company and the Demanding Holders that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of Common Shares or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the shares of Common Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Shares”), then the Company shall include in such registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Initiating Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such person (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the shares of Common Shares or other securities that any other Demanding Holders desire to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the shares of Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares have not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

2.1.5. Demand Registration Withdrawal. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering by giving written notice to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration then such registration shall count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1.

2.2.

Piggy-Back Registration.

2.2.1. Piggy-Back Rights. If at any time on or after the date the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Company for its own account or for shareholders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by shareholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (v) for the registration of shares or equity securities underlying any Warrants, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice, provided such holders also provide the information requested by the Company to prepare the Registration Statement within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). Subject to Section 2.2.2, the Company shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.

A-5

2.2.2. Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities that in its good faith opinion the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Shares which the Company desires to sell, taken together with shares of Common Shares, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2.2, and the shares of Common Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then the Company shall include in any such registration:

(a) If the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account: (A) the shares of Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (C) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and

(b) If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities, (A) first, the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of the demanding persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), collectively the shares of Common Shares or other securities comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

2.2.3. Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement.

2.2.4. Registrations on Form S-3. The holders of Registrable Securities may at any time and from time to time request in writing that the Company register the resale of any or all of such Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration which may be available at such time (“Form S-3”) so long as such request covers at least $25 million worth of the market value of Common Shares; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through an underwritten offering. Upon receipt of such written request, the Company will give written notice of the proposed registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities, and each holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration on such Form S-3 shall so notify the Company, and provide the information request by the Company to prepare the Registration Statement, within five (5) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, the Company shall effect the registration of all or such portion of such holder’s or holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company, if any; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.2.4: (i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) if the holders of the Registrable Securities, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $25 million. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.2.4 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act in order to enable the disposition of all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement.

3.1.4. Notification. After the filing of a Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly after such filing, notify the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement of such filing, and shall further notify such holders promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events within five (5) business days of the occurrence of any of the following: (i) when such Registration Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (iii) the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order; and (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (a “Misstatement”), and promptly make available to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment; except that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, the Company shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon.

3.1.5. State Securities Laws Compliance. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may reasonably request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act.

3.1.6. Agreements for Disposition. The Company shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable in an underwritten offering, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. No holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement shall be required to make any representations or warranties in the underwriting agreement except, if applicable, with respect to such holder’s organization, good standing, authority, title to Registrable Securities, lack of conflict of such sale with such holder’s material agreements and organizational documents, and with respect to written information relating to such holder that such holder has furnished in writing expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement.

3.1.7. Cooperation. The chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, the principal accounting officer of the Company and all other officers and members of the management of the Company shall cooperate fully in any offering of Registrable Securities hereunder, which cooperation shall include, without limitation, the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such offering and all other offering materials and related documents, and participation in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants and potential investors in an underwritten offering.

3.1.8. Records.

The Company shall obtain an opinion or comfort letter from the Company’s legal counsel and independent public accountants delivered to any Underwriter in the event of an underwritten offering, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by any opinions or comfort letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating holders.

3.1.10. Earnings Statement. The Company shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Securities Act, and make available to its shareholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

A-8

3.2. Obligation to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1.4(iv) or that a Registration Statement contains a Misstatement, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any Registration shall immediately discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.4(iv) or is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Company, each such holder will deliver to the Company all written copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. The Company shall immediately notify the holders of Registrable Securities of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.2.

3.3. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, any Piggy-Back Registration pursuant to Section 2.2, and any registration on Form S-3 effected pursuant to Section 2.2.4, and all of the following expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement: (i) all registration and filing fees; (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) the Company’s internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees); (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities as required by Section 3.1.11; (vi) Financial Industry Regulatory Authority fees; (vii) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and reasonable fees and expenses for independent certified public accountants retained by the Company (including the expenses or costs associated with the delivery of any opinions or comfort letters requested pursuant to Section 3.1.9); (viii) the reasonable fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration and (ix) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses, not to exceed $75,000 in connection with any Registration Statement, of one legal counsel selected by the holders of a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities included in such registration. The Company shall have no obligation to pay any underwriting discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all selling shareholders and the Company shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter Pro Rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is selling in such offering.

3.4. Information. The holders of Registrable Securities shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested by the Company, or the managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2 and in connection with the Company’s obligation to comply with federal, provincial and applicable state securities laws.

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

4.1. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each Investor whose Registrable Securities are covered by a Registration Statement, such Investor’s officers, directors and each Person, if any, who controls such Investor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “Investor Indemnified Party”), from and against any out-of-pocket expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, “Losses”), caused by any Misstatement or alleged Misstatement contained in any Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration; and the Company shall promptly reimburse the Investor Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending any such Loses; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses arises out of or is based upon any Misstatement made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by such selling holder expressly for use therein. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities, their officers, directors, and each person who controls such Underwriter to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Investor Indemnified Parties. It is agreed that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

4.2. Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.4.3 hereof, each selling holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling holder, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter (if any), and each other selling holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling holder or such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any Losses, insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon any Misstatement or alleged Misstatement contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such selling holder expressly for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company, its directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such Loss. Each selling holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling holder.

4.3. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any Loss in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the Loss; provided, however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written advice of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of any Losses for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder if such settlement or judgment includes any non-monetary remedies, requires an admission of fault or culpability on the part of the Indemnified Party or does not include an unconditional release from all liability of the Indemnified Party in respect of such Losses.

A-10

4.4. Contribution.

4.4.1. If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any Loss referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such Loss. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the Misstatement relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such Misstatement.

4.4.2. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.

4.4.3. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Loss referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

RULE 144 INFORMATION.

5.1. Rule 144. The Company covenants that it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall take such further action as the holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission.

A-11

BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

6.1. Director Nomination Rights.

6.1.1. For so long as the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied, the Investors holding a majority in interest of the SPAC Shares then outstanding (the “SPAC Majority Holders”) shall have the right to nominate, collectively, one person (the “Nominee”) to the Board of Directors for election to the Board of Directors by giving written notice to the Company not later than twenty (20) days after receiving notice of the date of the applicable meeting of shareholders provided to the Investors, provided that the Nominee has: (a) provided the Company with the Nominee’s written consent to a customary background check, which consent shall be provided promptly after the Nominee is proposed; (b) completed a reasonably satisfactory interview with the Nominating and Governance Committee (or similarly designated committee), which shall be completed as promptly as practicable following receipt of a completed director questionnaire; (c) provided the Company with a completed director questionnaire (in the form to be provided by the Company within three (3) business days of being identified) and such other information required as may be reasonably requested by the Board of Directors; (d) agreed to take all necessary action not be considered to be “overboarded” under the applicable policies of Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc. (“ISS”) and Glass Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass Lewis”) as a result of his or her appointment to the Board of Directors; and (e) qualifies as an Independent Director. In the event the Nominating and Governance Committee declines to approve a Nominee, the SPAC Majority Holders may propose a new Nominee, subject to the approval process described above, until a Nominee is approved in accordance with this Section 6.1.1. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Minimum Holding Condition” shall be deemed to be satisfied until the first such time that Investors (together with their respective Affiliates) cease to Beneficially Own collectively a number of Common Shares equal to or greater than: (i) 50% of the total number of Common Shares held by the Investors on the date hereof (as the same may be adjusted by share splits, reverse splits, share dividends, recapitalizations or other similar events) and (ii) 2.0% of the then-issued and outstanding Common Shares, as determined on a fully diluted basis, including the Earn-Out Shares for so long as the Earn-Out Target Conditions pertaining to such Earn-Out Shares remain capable of being satisfied; provided that if the Investors do not satisfy clause (ii) of the Minimum Holding Condition at closing of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, the Minimum Holding Condition shall nevertheless be deemed to be satisfied until such time that the Investors (or any of their respective Affiliates) sell, transfer or otherwise divest any Common Shares, in which case the Minimum Holding Condition shall immediately cease to be satisfied.

6.1.2. Following approval of a Nominee by the Board of Directors, the Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that: (i) the applicable Nominee is included in the Board of Director’s slate of nominees to the shareholders of the Company for each election of directors and recommended by the Board of Directors at any meeting of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors; (ii) the Nominee up for election is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with the Company’s soliciting proxies or consents in favor of the foregoing for every meeting of the shareholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written resolution of the shareholders of the Company or the Board of Directors with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors; and (iii) such Nominee receives the same level of support as is provided for the other director nominees of the Company with respect to the applicable meeting of stockholders or consent solicitation. In addition, each Investor agrees with the Company that such Investor shall vote in favor of each person to be appointed or nominated, as the case may be, for election to the Board of Directors and who has been recommended by the Board of Directors for such appointment or nomination at every meeting of the shareholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written resolution of the shareholders of the Company or the Board of Directors with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors.

A-12

6.1.3. If a vacancy occurs because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal of a SPAC Director or for any other reason, and at such time, the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied then SPAC Majority Holders shall be entitled to designate such person’s successor, and the Company shall, within ten (10) days of such designation, take all necessary actions within its control such that such vacancy shall be filled with such successor Nominee, it being understood that any such successor designee shall serve the remainder of the term of the director whom such designee replaces.

6.1.4. If at any time, the Minimum Holding Condition cease to be satisfied, then within ten (10) days of such occurring, the SPAC Director shall tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors for the Board of Director’s consideration. The Investors’ board designation right pursuant to this Section 6 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the first time the Investors cease to satisfy the Minimum Holding Condition and shall not be reinstated under any circumstances.

6.2. Director Consent Rights. If (i) at the time of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, the Board of Directors is composed of five (5) or fewer directors, (ii) the Company proposes for the number of directors comprising the Board of Directors to be greater than five (5) directors and (iii) at the time the Company makes such proposal, the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied, then prior to the nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) of a sixth individual to the Board of Directors (an “Additional Director”), the SPAC Majority Holders shall have the right to consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) of the Additional Director; provided, however, that such right to consent with respect to such Additional Director shall expire upon an Additional Director becoming a member of the Board of Directors in accordance with the requirements of this sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, if the SPAC Majority Holders do not provide consent to the nomination of an Additional Director in accordance with this Section 6.2 (and the refusal to provide consent was reasonable), the Company may propose a new Additional Director, and such nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) of such Additional Director shall be subject to the approval process described above, until the SPAC Majority Holders shall have consented to the nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) and such Additional Director shall have begun service as a member of the Board of Directors.

Article 10
MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS

10.1

Annual General Meetings

Unless an annual general meeting is deferred or waived in accordance with the Act, the Company must hold its first annual general meeting within 18 months after the date on which it was incorporated or otherwise recognized, and after that must hold an annual general meeting at least once in each calendar year and not more than 15 months after the last annual reference date at such time and location, within or outside British Columbia, as may be determined by the directors, and including a place or location that is entirely virtual such that the annual general meeting is held electronically without a physical location or place, in which case the deemed location of the virtual meeting, if any is so required for compliance with the Act or applicable law, shall be Vancouver, British Columbia.

10.2

Resolution Instead of Annual General Meeting

If all the shareholders who are entitled to vote at an annual general meeting consent by a unanimous resolution under the Act to all of the business that is required to be transacted at that annual general meeting, the annual general meeting is deemed to have been held on the date of the unanimous resolution. The shareholders must, in any unanimous resolution passed under this Article 10.2, select as the Company’s annual reference date a date that would be appropriate for the holding of the applicable annual general meeting.

10.3

Calling of Meetings of Shareholders

The directors may, whenever they think fit, call a meeting of shareholders. Any meeting of shareholders may be held at such time and location, within or outside of British Columbia, including locations outside North America, as may be determined by the directors, and including a place or location that is entirely virtual such that the meeting is held electronically without a physical location or place, in which case the deemed location of the virtual meeting, if any is so required for compliance with the Act or applicable law, shall be Vancouver, British Columbia.

10.4

Notice for Meetings of Shareholders

The Company must send notice of the date, time and location of any meeting of shareholders, in the manner provided in these Articles, or in such other manner, if any, as may be prescribed by ordinary resolution (whether previous notice of the resolution has been given or not), to each shareholder entitled to attend the meeting, to each director and to the auditor of the Company, unless these Articles otherwise provide, at least the following number of days before the meeting:

(a)

if and for so long as the Company is a public company, 21 days; or

(b)

otherwise, 10 days.

10.5

Record Date for Notice

The directors may set a date as the record date for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of any meeting of shareholders. The record date must not precede the date on which the meeting is to be held by more than two months or, in the case of a general meeting requisitioned by shareholders under the Act, by more than four months. The record date must not precede the date on which the meeting is held by fewer than:

(a)

if and for so long as the Company is a public company, 21 days; or

(b)

otherwise, 10 days.

If no record date is set, the record date is 5:00 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the first date on which the notice is sent or, if no notice is sent, the beginning of the meeting.

10.6

Record Date for Voting

The directors may set a date as the record date for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders. The record date must not precede the date on which the meeting is to be held by more than two months or, in the case of a general meeting requisitioned by shareholders under the Act, by more than four months. If no record date is set, the record date is 5:00 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the first date on which the notice is sent or, if no notice is sent, the beginning of the meeting.

10.7

Failure to Give Notice and Waiver of Notice

The accidental omission to send notice of any meeting to, or the non-receipt of any notice by, any of the persons entitled to notice does not invalidate any proceedings at that meeting. Any person entitled to notice of a meeting of shareholders may, in writing or otherwise, waive or reduce the period of notice of such meeting.

10.8

Notice of Special Business at Meetings of Shareholders

If a meeting of shareholders is to consider special business within the meaning of Article 11.1, the notice of meeting must state the general nature of the special business. If the special business includes considering, approving, ratifying, adopting or authorizing any document or the signing of or giving of effect to any document, then, in lieu of attaching a copy of the document to the notice of meeting, the notice may state that a copy of the document will be available for inspection by shareholders who are entitled to vote at the meeting:

(a)

at the Company’s records office, or at such other reasonably accessible location in British Columbia as is specified in the notice; and

(b)

during statutory business hours on any one or more specified days before the day set for the holding of the meeting.

10.9

If and for so long as the Company is a public company, subject only to the Act and these Articles, only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Company. Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors at any annual meeting of shareholders, or at any special meeting of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors as set forth in the Company's notice of such special meeting, may be made (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors, including pursuant to a notice of meeting, (ii) by or at the direction or request of one or more shareholders pursuant to a proposal made in accordance with the provisions of the Act, or a requisition of the shareholders made in accordance with the provisions of the Act or, (iii) by any shareholder of the Company (a “Nominating Shareholder”) who, at the close of business on the date of the giving of the notice provided for below in this Article 10.9 and on the record date for notice of such meeting, is entered in the securities register as a holder of one or more shares carrying the right to vote at such meeting or who beneficially owns shares that are entitled to be voted at such meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Article 10.9:

(a)

In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a Nominating Shareholder, such person must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the secretary of the Company in accordance with this Article 10.9;

(b)

To be timely, a Nominating Shareholder's notice must be received by the secretary of the Company (i) in the case of an annual meeting, not less than 30 days or more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made (the "Meeting Notice Date"), the Nominating Shareholder’s notice must be so received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the Meeting Notice Date; and (ii) in the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual meeting) called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes), not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the special meeting is first made. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of an annual meeting or special meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a Nominating Shareholder's notice as described in this Article 10.9;

(c)

To be in proper written form, a Nominating Shareholder's notice must set forth: (i) as to each person whom the Nominating Shareholder proposes to nominate for election as a director (A) the name, age, business address and residence address of the person, (B) the principal occupation or employment of the person, (C) the class or series and number of shares of the Company that are owned beneficially or of record by the person and (D) any other information relating to the person that would be required to be disclosed in a dissident's proxy circular in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to the Act and Applicable Securities Laws; and (ii) as to the Nominating Shareholder giving the notice, any proxy, contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship pursuant to which such Nominating Shareholder has a right to vote any shares of the Company and any other information relating to such Nominating Shareholder that would be required to be made in a dissident's proxy circular in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to the Act and Applicable Securities Laws. The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the Company or that could be material to a reasonable shareholder's understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such proposed nominee. The Nominating Shareholder's notice must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected;

(d)

No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Company unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article 10.9; provided, however, that nothing in this Article 10.9 shall be deemed to preclude a shareholder from discussing (as distinct from nominating directors) at a meeting of shareholders any matter in respect of which the shareholder would have been entitled to submit a proposal pursuant to the provisions of the Act. The chair of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in the foregoing provisions and, if any proposed nomination is not in compliance with such foregoing provisions, to declare that such defective nomination shall be disregarded;

For purposes of this Article 10.9, (i) "public announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release disseminated by a nationally recognized news service in Canada, or in a document publicly filed by the Company under its profile on the System of Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval at xxx.xxxxx.xxx; and (ii) "Applicable Securities Laws" means the applicable securities legislation in each relevant province and territory of Canada, as amended from time to time, the rules, regulations and forms made or promulgated under any such statute and the published national instruments, multilateral instruments, policies, bulletins and notices of the securities commission and similar regulatory authority of each province and territory of Canada;

(f)

Notice given to the secretary of the Company pursuant to this Article 10.9 may only be given by personal delivery, facsimile transmission or by email (at such email address as stipulated from time to time by the secretary of the Company for purposes of this notice), and shall be deemed to have been given and made only at the time it is served by personal delivery, email (at the address aforesaid) or sent by facsimile transmission (provided the receipt of confirmation of such transmission has been received) to the secretary at the address of the principal executive offices of the Company; provided that if such delivery or electronic communication is made on a day which is not a business day or later than 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on a day which is a business day, then such delivery or electronic communication shall be deemed to have been on the subsequent day that is a business day; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the board may, in its sole discretion, waive any requirement in this Article 10.9.

the director, as the case may be, has waived notice of the meeting.

All dividends which the directors may declare on the Non-Voting Common shares and the Common shares shall be declared and paid on a pari passu basis on all Non-Voting Common shares (on an as-converted basis, assuming conversion of all Non-Voting Common shares at the Conversion Ratio then in effect) and Common shares at the time outstanding. Any dividends shall be paid in accordance with Article 21.

(b)

A holder of Non-Voting Common shares on the record date for the determination of holders of Non-Voting Common shares entitled to receive a dividend declared payable on the Non-Voting Common shares will be entitled to such dividend notwithstanding that such share is converted, in accordance with this Article 28, after such record date and before the payment date of such dividend, and the holders of any Common shares resulting from any conversion shall rank pari passu with the holders of all other Common shares in respect of all dividends declared payable to holders of Common shares of record on any date on or after the date of conversion.

28.3

Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding-up

Subject to the special rights or restrictions attached to the Preferred shares of any series, the holders of Non-Voting Common shares shall be entitled to receive, pari passu (on an as-converted basis, assuming conversion of all Non-Voting Common shares at the Conversion Ratio then in effect) with the holders of Common shares, the remaining property of the Company in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, or upon any other return of capital or distribution of assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs.

28.4

Conversion

(a)

Each Non-Voting Common share shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof at any time after the date of issuance of such share, into one fully paid and non-assessable Common share, subject to adjustment pursuant to Article 28.6 below (the “Conversion Ratio”), in accordance with Article 28.4(b), subject to the limitations set forth in Article 28.5.

(b)

Before any holder of Non-Voting Common shares shall be entitled to convert any Non-Voting Common shares into Common shares pursuant to Article 28.4(a), the holder thereof shall: (i) provide written notice (a “Notice of Conversion”) by electronic mail to the Company’s transfer agent, together with any appropriate documentation that may be reasonably required by the Company and/or its transfer agent, with a copy of such Notice of Conversion and documentation to the Company’s general counsel by electronic mail, of such holder’s election to convert all or any portion of its Non-Voting Common shares (subject to the limitations set forth in Article 28.5), and such Notice of Conversion shall set out (A) the name and address of such holder, (B) the number of Non-Voting Common shares being converted, and (C) the aggregate number of Common shares that such holder, together with its Attribution Parties (as defined below) (if any), will beneficially own in accordance with the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as of the Conversion Date (after giving effect to the conversion of the number of Non-Voting Common shares specified in such Notice of Conversion), as determined by such holder in its sole discretion in accordance with Article 28.5; and (ii) if such Non-Voting Common shares are in certificated form, surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the transfer agent for the Non-Voting Common shares. Upon receipt of such Notice of Conversion the Company shall, or shall cause its transfer agent to, issue to and in the name of such registered holder of the Non-Voting Common shares being converted (as specified in such Notice of Conversion), that number of Common shares issuable upon such conversion in accordance with these provisions and deliver to such holder a written notice of uncertificated shares in respect of the Common shares so issued containing that information as required by the Act. Such conversion shall be effected as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event more than five business days) after delivery of such Notice of Conversion (the date such conversion is effected, the “Conversion Date”), and the Company or its transfer agent shall give such holder written notice by electronic mail of the Conversion Date within one business day thereafter. The registered holder entitled to receive the Common shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the registered holder of such Common shares on and as of the Conversion Date, and will be entitled to receive dividends declared on such Common shares with a record date on or after the Conversion Date.

G-42

(c)

All Non-Voting Common shares converted in accordance with a Notice of Conversion will be cancelled as of the Conversion Date. All rights with respect to such shares will immediately cease and terminate upon surrender for conversion except for the right of the holder thereof to receive, on the Conversion Date, Common shares in exchange therefor and to receive, if applicable, payment of any dividends declared but unpaid on such Non-Voting Common shares prior to the Conversion Date. Notwithstanding the above, such holder will not be entitled to receive dividends declared on such Non-Voting Common shares with a record date on or after the Conversion Date.

(d)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 28.4 or Article 28.5, if, at any time while any Non-Voting Common shares remain outstanding, (i) an acquisition of the Company is effected by means of merger, consolidation, amalgamation, plan of arrangement or other form of corporate reorganization in which more than 50% of the outstanding Common shares of the Company are exchanged for securities or other consideration issued or provided, or caused to be issued or provided, by the acquiring entity or its subsidiary, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (ii) a sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company is effected, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, or (iii) a stock or share purchase or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, amalgamation, spin-off or plan of arrangement) between the Company and one or more other persons is effected whereby such other person(s) acquire more than 50% of the outstanding Common shares, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions (each such event, individually, a “Merger Event”), then the Company (or its successor in such Merger Event) shall ensure that the terms of such Merger Event provide for the payment or distribution to each holder of outstanding Non-Voting Common shares, with respect to each Common share that would be issuable upon conversion of all of such holder’s Non-Voting Common shares (without taking into account the Beneficial Ownership Limitation under Article 28.5) immediately prior to the consummation of such Merger Event based on the Conversion Ratio (as adjusted pursuant to Article 28.6), the same amount of the proceeds of such Merger Event (including, without limitation, shares, securities, cash and other property or assets) (collectively, “Proceeds”), in the same form and at the same time, as the amount of Proceeds paid or distributed with respect to each outstanding Common share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the aggregate Proceeds that would be paid or distributed to a holder of Non-Voting Common shares pursuant to this Article 28.4(d) would result in such holder, together with its Attribution Parties (if any), beneficially owning more than 9.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of a class of voting securities registered under Section 12 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Registered Shares”), then the Company shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that such holder of Non-Voting Common shares is distributed convertible non-voting shares of the applicable issuer with conversion terms analogous to those set forth in Article 28 in lieu of such number of such Registered Shares as necessary for such holder, together with its Attribution Parties (if any), to beneficially own a number of Registered Shares equal to, or as close thereto as possible without exceeding, 9.99% of the issued and outstanding Registered Shares; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to take any actions pursuant to this sentence if the board of directors determines in good faith that such actions could reasonably be expected to be detrimental to the Company’s negotiations with respect to a proposed Merger Event.

28.5

Beneficial Ownership Limitation

(a)

In this Article 28.5:

(i)

“Attribution Parties” means, with respect to a holder of Non-Voting Common shares, its affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144(a) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended) and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common shares would be aggregated with that of such holder, including any “group” of which such holder is a member, for the purposes of, and as determined in accordance with, Section 13(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; and

(ii)

“Beneficial Ownership Limitation” means 9.99% of the number of Common shares issued and outstanding at any time.

(b)

The Company shall not effect any conversion of Non-Voting Common shares, and a holder of Non-Voting Common shares shall not have the right to convert any portion of its Non-Voting Common shares, to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion of the number of Non-Voting Common shares specified in the applicable Notice of Conversion, such holder (together with its Attribution Parties, if any) would beneficially own a number of Common shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. For purposes of calculating a holder’s beneficial ownership pursuant to this Article 28.5, the number of Common shares beneficially owned by such holder of Non-Voting Common shares and its Attribution Parties (if any), and the number of Common shares then issued and outstanding, shall include the number of Common shares issuable upon conversion of the Non-Voting Common shares with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Common shares which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, non-converted portion of the Non-Voting Common shares beneficially owned by such holder or any of its Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or non-converted portion of any other securities of the Company that are subject to a limitation preventing any conversion or exercise that would result in such holder and its Attribution Parties beneficially owning Common shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Article 28.5, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(c)

The determination of whether the conversion of Non-Voting Common shares into Common shares is permitted under this Article 28.5 shall be made by the registered holder of such Non-Voting Common shares in such registered holder’s sole discretion, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be conclusively deemed to constitute such registered holder’s determination that the conversion of the Non-Voting Common shares identified in such Notice of Conversion is permitted under this Article 28.5, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination and will be entitled to rely solely upon the statements in such Notice of Conversion for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations to any such registered holder (including its obligation under Article 28.5(b) not to effect any conversion of Non-Voting Common shares that would result in such holder (together with its Attribution Parties, if any) beneficially owning a number of Common shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation), and the Company shall also be entitled to rely, without verification or confirmation of the accuracy of the statements in such Notice of Conversion, on the information in such Notice of Conversion for the purpose of its public disclosure and regulatory compliance. The limitations contained in this Article 28.5 shall apply to a successor holder of Non-Voting Common shares.

G-44

(d)

For purposes of this Article 28.5, in determining the number of outstanding Common shares, a holder of Non-Voting Common shares may rely on the number of outstanding Common shares as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent quarterly or annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of Common shares outstanding. Upon the written request by a holder of Non-Voting Common shares delivered (including by electronic mail) to the Company’s general counsel, the Company shall confirm in writing (including by electronic mail) to such holder the number of Common shares issued and outstanding at such time. The Company shall respond promptly, and in any case within two business days, in writing (including by electronic mail).

(e)

In the event that a registered holder of Non-Voting Common shares at any time determines in its sole discretion that such holder, together with its Attribution Parties (if any), beneficially owns less than 8.99% of the number of Common shares issued and outstanding (calculated in accordance with this Article 28.5, after giving effect to any conversion of Non-Voting Common shares specified in a Notice of Conversion delivered by such holder), such holder shall promptly submit a Notice of Conversion requesting conversion of a number of Non-Voting Common shares into Common shares so that, following such conversion, such holder, together with its Attribution Parties (if any), will beneficially own that whole number of Common shares equal to, or as close thereto as possible without exceeding, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

(f)

Upon the written request (including by electronic mail) of the Company (which shall not be made more than once in any 30-day period), which written request shall set forth the number of Common shares then issued and outstanding, a holder of Non-Voting Common shares shall promptly confirm in writing (including by electronic mail) to the Company the number of Common shares that such holder, together with its Attribution Parties (if any), beneficially owns at such time (calculated in accordance with this Article 28.5), as determined by such holder in its sole discretion (a “Confirmation Notice”).

(g)

In the event a holder of Non-Voting Common shares provides a Confirmation Notice pursuant to Article 28.5(f), and such Confirmation Notice discloses that such holder, together with its Attribution Parties (if any), beneficially owns less than 8.99% of the number of Common shares then issued and outstanding (calculated in accordance with this Article 28.5, after giving effect to any conversion of Non-Voting Common shares specified in a Notice of Conversion delivered by such holder), then if such holder does not submit a Notice of Conversion in accordance with Article 28.5(e) within 2 business days following the delivery of such Confirmation Notice, such holder shall be deemed to have submitted a Notice of Conversion in accordance with Article 28.5(e), and the Company shall be entitled to rely on such deemed Notice of Conversion and the beneficial ownership amount disclosed in such Confirmation Notice (for purposes of calculating the number of Non-Voting Common shares to be converted) to the same extent as it would be entitled to rely on a Notice of Conversion in accordance with Article 28.5(c).

G-45

28.6

Adjustments to Conversion Ratio

(a) If the Company, at any time or from time to time, subdivides the outstanding Common shares without completing an equivalent subdivision of the Non-Voting Common shares, the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately increased so that the number of Common shares issuable on conversion of each Non-Voting Common share be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of Common shares outstanding. If the Company, at any time or from time to time, consolidates the outstanding Common shares without completing an equivalent consolidation of the Non-Voting Common shares, the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately before such consolidation shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of Common shares issuable on conversion of each Non-Voting Common share be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of Common shares outstanding. Any adjustment to the Conversion Ratio pursuant to this Article 28.6(a) shall become effective on the date and time that the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(b) If any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, arrangement or similar transaction occurs involving the Company in which the Common shares, but not the Non-Voting Common shares, are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, arrangement or similar transaction, each Non-Voting Common share shall be convertible in lieu of the Common shares into which it was convertible before such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that a holder of the number of Common shares of the Company issuable upon conversion of one Non-Voting Common share immediately before such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, arrangement or similar transaction would have been entitled to receive under such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the board of directors) shall be made in the application of this Article 28.6(b) with respect to the rights and interests of the holders of Non-Voting Common shares, including with respect to changes in and other adjustments to the Conversion Ratio, in relation to any securities or other property deliverable upon the conversion of the Non-Voting Common shares; provided, however, that this Article 28.6(b) shall not apply with respect to any of the foregoing that occurs in connection with a Merger Event, except to the extent necessary to ensure that each holder of Non-Voting Common shares outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such Merger Event receives the same amount of Proceeds for each Common share that would be issuable upon conversion of such holder’s Non-Voting Common shares based on the Conversion Ratio (without taking into account the Beneficial Ownership Limitation under Article 28.5) as each outstanding Common share pursuant to Article 28.5(d).

28.7

Transfer Restrictions

No holder of Non-Voting Common shares may transfer any of the Non-Voting Common shares, except pursuant to a Merger Event. A holder of Non-Voting Common shares may surrender such shares to the Company at any time or convert such shares in accordance with this Article 28. Any attempt to transfer any shares of Non-Voting Common shares not in compliance with this Article 28 shall be null and void, and the Company shall not, and shall cause its transfer agent not to, give any effect in the Company’s share records to such attempted transfer.

28.8

Cancellation of Non-Voting Common Shares

Any Non-Voting Common share acquired by the Company by reason of redemption, purchase, conversion, or otherwise shall be immediately cancelled upon acquisition by the Company.
