The offering of the Subscription Receipts by the Company is referred to herein as the “Offering”.

Upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Agents hereby agree to act, and upon acceptance hereof the Company hereby appoints the Agents, as the Company’s exclusive agents to offer for sale on a “best efforts” agency basis, without underwriter liability, the Subscription Receipts and to arrange for purchasers for the Subscription Receipts in the Selling Jurisdictions (as defined herein) on a private placement basis pursuant to exemptions from the prospectus requirements of all applicable Securities Laws (as defined herein). The Company agrees that the Agents are under no obligation to purchase any of the Subscription Receipts but may purchase Subscription Receipts if desired.

In consideration of the services to be rendered by the Agents in connection with the Offering, the Company shall, at the Closing Time (as defined herein), pay to the Agents the Commission (as defined herein) and issue and deliver to the Agents the Broker Warrants (as defined herein) in such amounts and with such terms as set out in Section 14 hereof.

The Company agrees that the Agents will be permitted to appoint, at their sole expense, other registered dealers or other dealers duly qualified in their respective jurisdictions, as their agents to assist in the Offering in the Selling Jurisdictions and that the Agents may determine the remuneration payable by the Agents to such other dealers appointed by them, provided that such remuneration shall not in any way increase the aggregate Commission payable to the Agents by the Company under this Agreement.

Subscription Receipts

The gross proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Receipts less an amount equal to the expenses of the Agents (including the fees and disbursements of the Agents’ legal counsel) payable pursuant to Section 10 hereof (the “Escrowed Proceeds”) will be deposited on the Closing Date with and held by Computershare Trust Company of Canada (or such other subscription receipt agent agreed upon by the Company and GMP), as subscription receipt agent for the Company (the “Subscription Receipt Agent”), in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement (as defined herein) pending satisfaction of the Release Conditions (as defined herein).

Provided that the Release Conditions are satisfied on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on September 19, 2016 (the “Release Deadline”), the Subscription Receipt Agent will release the Escrowed Proceeds plus any interest or other income earned thereon (the “Escrowed Funds”) to the Company (less the Commission related to the sale of the Subscription Receipts, an amount equal to any remaining unpaid expenses of the Agents (including the fees and disbursements of the Agents’ legal counsel) payable pursuant to Section 10 hereof and the Agents’ pro rata portion of the interest earned on the Escrowed Proceeds, which amounts shall be released to GMP (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Agents)) and each Subscription Receipt will be automatically converted into one unit of the Company (each, an “Underlying Unit”), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement, without payment of additional consideration and without any further action by the holder thereof (the “Escrow Release”).

If: (a) the Release Conditions are not satisfied prior to the Release Deadline; or (b) prior to the Release Deadline, the Company advises GMP (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Agents) or announces to the public that it does not intend to satisfy the Release Conditions, the Subscription Receipt Agent will return to each holder of Subscription Receipts, an amount equal to the aggregate Subscription Price of the Subscription Receipts held by such holder and their pro rata portion of interest and other income earned on the Escrowed Proceeds (less applicable withholding tax, if any), and the Subscription Receipts will be cancelled. The Company shall be responsible and liable to the holders of Subscription Receipts for any shortfall between that amount and the Escrowed Funds.

12. Indemnity and Contribution.

(a) The Company and its affiliated companies (collectively, the “Indemnitor”) hereby jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Agents, each of their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, unitholders, shareholders and agents (hereinafter referred to collectively as, the “Personnel”) harmless from and against any and all expenses, losses (other than loss of profits), claims, actions, damages, obligations, or liabilities, whether joint or several, and the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel, that may be incurred in advising with respect to and/or defending any claims, actions (including shareholder actions, derivative actions or otherwise), suits, investigations or proceedings to which the Agents and/or the Personnel may become subject or otherwise involved in any capacity under any statute or common law, or otherwise insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages, obligations, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based, directly or indirectly, upon the performance of professional services rendered to the Indemnitor by the Agents and the Personnel hereunder, or otherwise in connection with the matters referred to in this Agreement (including the aggregate amount paid in reasonable settlement of any such actions, suits, investigations, proceedings or claims that may be made against the Agents and/or the Personnel, provided that the Indemnitor has agreed to such settlement), provided, however, that this indemnity shall not apply to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgement that has become non-appealable shall determine that:

- 30 -

	(i)	the Agents and/or the Personnel have been grossly negligent or have committed willful misconduct or any fraudulent act in the course of such performance; and

	(ii)	the expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as to which indemnification is claimed, were primarily caused by the actions referred to in (i) above.

(b) If for any reason (other than the occurrence of any of the events itemized in (i) or (ii) above), the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to the Agents or any Personnel or insufficient to hold the Agents or any Personnel harmless, then the Indemnitor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Agents or any Personnel as a result of such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnitor on the one hand and the Agents or any Personnel on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Agents or any Personnel, as well as any relevant equitable considerations, provided that the Indemnitor shall in any event contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Agents or any Personnel as a result of such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability and any excess of such amount over the amount of the fees actually received and retained by the Agents pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) The Indemnitor agrees that in case any legal proceeding shall be brought against the Indemnitor and/or the Agents by any governmental commission or regulatory authority or any stock exchange or other entity having regulatory authority, either domestic or foreign, or shall investigate the Indemnitor and/or the Agents, and/or any Personnel of the Agents shall be required to testify in connection therewith or shall be required to respond to procedures designed to discover information regarding, in connection with, or by reason of the performance of professional services rendered to the Indemnitor by the Agents, the Agents shall have the right to employ their own counsel in connection therewith provided the Agents act reasonably in selecting such counsel, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel as well as the reasonable costs (including an amount to reimburse the Agents, respectively for time spent by the Agents’ Personnel in connection therewith unless such proceeding has been caused solely by or is the result of the gross negligence, fraud or misconduct of the Agents, or any Personnel) and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Personnel in connection therewith shall be paid by the Indemnitor as they occur.

(d) Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any legal proceeding against the Agents or any of the Agents or after receipt of notice of the commencement or any investigation, which is based, directly or indirectly, upon any matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought from the Indemnitor, the Agents will notify the Indemnitor in writing of the commencement thereof and, throughout the course thereof, will provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnitor, will keep the Indemnitor advised of the progress thereof and will discuss with the Indemnitor all significant actions proposed. However, any delay or failure by the Agents to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations to indemnify the Agents and/or any Personnel except to the extent that the delay or failure to do so has been prejudicial to the Indemnitor or results in any increase in the liability which the Indemnitor would otherwise have under this indemnity had the Agents not so delayed in giving or failed to give the notice required hereunder.

- 31 -

(e) The Indemnitor shall on behalf of itself and on behalf of the Agents and/or any Personnel, as applicable, be entitled (but not required) to assume the defence of any suit brought to enforce such legal proceeding; provided, however, that the defence shall be conducted through legal counsel acceptable to the Agents and/or any Personnel, as applicable, acting reasonably and that no settlement of any such legal proceeding may be made by the Indemnitor without the prior written consent of the Agents and/or any Personnel, as applicable, and none of the Agents and/or any Personnel, as applicable, shall be liable for any settlement of any such legal proceeding unless it has consented in writing to such settlement, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Agents and the Personnel shall have the right to appoint their own separate counsel at the Indemnitor’s cost if: (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Indemnitor; (ii) the Indemnitor has not assumed the defence and employed counsel therefor within a reasonable time after receiving notice of such action, suit, proceeding, claim or investigation; or (iii) counsel retained by the Indemnitor or the Agents has advised the Agents that representation of all such parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate for any reason, including without limitation because there may be legal defences available to the Agents which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnitor (in which event and to that extent, the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume or direct the defence on the Agents’ behalf) or that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Agents or the subject matter of the action, suit, proceeding, claim or investigation may not fall within the indemnity set forth herein (in either of which events the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume or direct the defence on the Agents’ behalf).

(f) The indemnity and contribution obligations of the Indemnitor hereunder shall be in addition to any liability which the Indemnitor may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to the Personnel and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Indemnitor, the Agents and any of the Personnel. This Section 12 shall survive the completion of the professional services rendered under this Agreement or any termination of this Agreement.

(g) With respect to any Person who may be indemnified by this Section 12 and is not a party to this Agreement, the rights and benefits of this Section 12 are hereby granted to such Person and the Agents are hereby appointed as trustees of such rights and benefits for such Person, and the Agents hereby accept such trust and agree to hold such rights and benefits for and on behalf of such Person.

13. Advertisements. The Company acknowledges that the Agents shall have the right, subject always to Sections 1(a) and (c) hereof, at their own expense, to place such advertisement or advertisements relating to the Offering contemplated herein as the Agents may consider desirable or appropriate and as may be permitted by applicable law, including applicable Securities Laws. The Company and the Agents each agree that they will not make or publish any advertisement in any media whatsoever relating to, or otherwise publicize, the transaction provided for herein so as to result in any exemption from the prospectus and registration requirements of applicable securities legislation in any of the Provinces of Canada in which the Subscription Receipts shall be offered or sold not being available.

14. Agents’ Commission. In consideration of the services to be rendered by the Agents in connection with the Offering, the Company shall pay the Agents a cash commission equal to 5.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds realized by the Company from the sale of the Subscription Receipts pursuant to the Offering (the “Commission”). As additional consideration, the Company shall also issue to the Agents that number of broker warrants (the “Broker Warrants”) equal to 7.0% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts sold pursuant to the Offering. Each Broker Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire an Underlying Unit (a “Broker Unit”) at a price of $0.35 per Broker Unit, upon the satisfaction of the Release Conditions on or prior to the Release Deadline, at any time in whole or from time to time in part until the date which is 24 months following the Closing Date. Each Broker Unit will consist of one Common Share (a “Broker Unit Share”) and one-quarter of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share purchase warrant, a “Broker Unit Warrant”). Each Broker Unit Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share (a “Broker Share”) at a price of $0.39 per Broker Share at any time in whole or from time to time in part until the Expiry Date. The obligation of the Company to pay the Commission shall arise upon the satisfaction of the Release Conditions on or prior to the Release Deadline, and shall be netted out of the Escrowed Funds and released by the Subscription Receipt Agent to GMP (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Agents) at the time of the Escrow Release, and to execute and deliver the Broker Warrant Certificates shall arise at the Closing Time.

15. Action by Agents. All steps which must or may be taken by the Agents in connection with the Offering, with the exception of the matters relating to (i) termination of sale obligations, or (ii) indemnification, contribution or settlement, may be taken by GMP on behalf of itself and the other Agents and the execution of this Agreement by the other Agents and by the Company shall constitute the Company’s authority and obligation for accepting notification or other communication of any such steps from, and for delivering the Subscription Receipts in electronic form to or to the order of, GMP. GMP shall consult with the other Agents with respect to all notices or other communications to or with the Company. The rights and obligations of the Agents under this Agreement shall be several and neither joint nor joint and several.
