NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Independent Consultant Agreement Amending Agreement (this “Amending Agreement”), including the increase to the Consultant’s consulting fees and the grant of restricted share units, and in exchange for the Consultant and Principal’s continued engagement, the Parties agree to amend the Independent Consultant Agreement as follows:

1. Provision 3.1 entitled “Consideration for Services” in the Independent Consultant Agreement will be replaced with the following:

As compensation for carrying out the Services during the term of this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to the Consultant a consulting fee in the amount of CAD $400,000 per year for the remainder of this Agreement or until any change is mutually agreed upon. All fees will be paid on a monthly basis upon submission of an invoice.

2. Provision 3.2 entitled “Consideration for Services” will be added into the Independent Consultant Agreement as follows:

As further compensation for carrying out the Services during the term of this Agreement, the Consultant will be eligible to receive an annual success fee (the “Success Fee”) ‎as determined by the Company in its sole ‎discretion. The Success Fee, if any, for a given year: (i) will be determined following the completion of the Company’s financial year ‎each year, based on performance metrics to be determined by the Company’s ‎compensation committee in its sole discretion; (ii) will be paid following the completion of such year; and (iii) is not ‎earned or accrued until and unless the Consultant is engaged on the last day of the period for ‎which the Success Fee is payable. ‎ The Consultant understands and agrees that payment of a Success Fee should not be considered to be expected compensation and the payment of a Success Fee in any one or successive years shall not create an entitlement to a Success Fee in any subsequent year.

Beginning in the calendar year of 2021, the Consultant’s target annual Success Fee is CDN$300,000.00, pro-rated to the date of this Amending Agreement for 2021.

6.	This Amending Agreement amends the Independent Consultant Agreement. This Amending Agreement and the Independent Consultant Agreement shall be read together and constitute one agreement. The Parties agree that the terms of the Amending Agreement will be effective on the Effective Date.
