2.1.1 Term Loans.

(a) Term Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender holding a Term Loan Commitment, severally and not jointly, will make a single term loan (collectively, the “Term Loans”) to the Borrower on the Effective Date in the amount equal to such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment Amount and, collectively with each other Lender, in the aggregate amount of $20,000,000. Once funded, the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender shall be reduced to $0.

(b) Interest Period. Commencing on the Payment Date falling in the first month following the quarter in which the Effective Date occurs, and continuing on each Payment Date thereafter, Borrower shall make quarterly payments of interest, in arrears, on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans, at the rate set forth in Section 2.2(a).

(d) Subject to Section 12.19, all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Term Loans, and all other outstanding Obligations with respect to the Term Loans, are due and payable in full in cash on the Term Loan Repayment Date. Once repaid, the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(e) Permitted Prepayment. Subject to Section 2.4, the Borrower shall have at any time and from time to time the right to prepay the Term Loans in whole or in part, without premium or penalty; provided, that the Borrower (i) provides written notice (which may be delivered by electronic mail) to the Lenders of (x) its election to prepay the Term Loans at least five (5) Business Days prior to such prepayment and (y) the amount of such prepayment, and (ii) pays, on the date of such prepayment, (A) the principal amount of such prepayment, (B) accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loans so prepaid and (C) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

(f) Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration. Subject to Section 2.4, if the Term Loans are accelerated pursuant to Section 9.1(a) following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Lenders an amount in cash equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal plus accrued interest under the Term Loans, and (ii) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable hereunder, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

(g) Application of Proceeds. All amounts collected or received by the Agent or any Lender under Section 2 shall be paid over or delivered to the Lenders on a pro rata basis as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of all Agent Expenses and, thereafter, Lender Expenses;

SECOND, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued interest on account of the Term Loans;

THIRD, to all other Obligations arising under this Agreement, under the Loan Documents or otherwise which shall have become due and payable and not repaid pursuant to the clauses above; and

FOURTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category and (ii) each of the Lenders shall receive any amounts equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied as set forth above.

2.2 Payment of Interest on the Term Loans.

(a) Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.2(b) and Section 2.4, interest on the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loans shall accrue and be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans on each Payment Date at a fixed per annum rate equal to nine percent (9.00%).

(b) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is three percentage points (3.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”) unless the Required Lenders otherwise elect from time to time in their sole discretion to impose a smaller increase. Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Lender Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.2(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Lenders.

(c) Computation: 360-Day Year. In computing interest, the date of the making of the Term Loans shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Term Loans are repaid on the same day on which it is made such day shall be included in computing interest thereon. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

(d) PIK Interest. Until the earlier of (i) Payment in Full of the Senior Obligations (as defined in the Subordination Agreement) and (ii) the Term Loan Repayment Date (or any acceleration thereof), interest payable hereunder shall be paid in kind and shall be capitalized and added to the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans (“PIK Interest”) on each Payment Date.

Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of the principal of and interest on the Term Loans to the Lenders shall be paid to the Lenders on a pro rata basis according to the Term Loan Amount of each Lender and applied to such Lender’s Term Loan.

For the avoidance of doubt, all fees or interest payments due hereunder (including interest at the Default Rate, as applicable) shall continue to accrue notwithstanding the existence of any Payment Block and shall remain due and payable hereunder but shall not be paid until such time as such Payment Block is no longer in effect.

(d) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.5.2(a), if a payment made to any Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(e) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification, provide such successor form, or promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Provided that a Lender has complied with the relevant provisions above in this Section 2.5.2, or has provided the documentation described above on or prior to the relevant interest payment date, the Borrower shall make all payments hereunder free and clear of any Indemnified Taxes (except as required by law, in which case the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding of Indemnified Taxes, Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made), and shall hold each such Lender harmless against any incremental United States withholding Tax that may be asserted by reason of a change in applicable law.

(a) Maintain the Borrower’s operating, depository, securities accounts and other Collateral Accounts, with the banks and other depository institutions identified on the Perfection

Certificate or such other banks and other depository institutions as selected by the Borrower and upon reasonable prior written notice to the Agent.

(b) For each Collateral Account that the Borrower at any time maintains and in which there is on deposit for more than three consecutive Business Days a balance of more than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) for any individual Collateral Account or Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) in the aggregate for all Collateral Accounts (except for such amounts on deposit but subject to an uncleared check or in-process wire, ACH or similar transfers), the Borrower shall use its reasonable best efforts promptly to cause the applicable bank or financial institution (excluding the Offshore Accounts) at or with which any Collateral Account is maintained to execute and deliver a Control Agreement or other appropriate instrument with respect to such Collateral Account to perfect the Lien granted hereunder in such Collateral Account in accordance with the terms hereunder which Control Agreement may not be terminated without the prior written consent of the Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders). The provisions of the previous sentence shall not apply to deposit accounts exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of the Borrower’s employees and identified to the Agent by the Borrower as such.

6.7 Protection of Intellectual Property Rights.

(a) (i) Protect, defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of Intellectual Property material to the Borrower’s business; (ii) promptly advise the Agent in writing of material infringements of Intellectual Property material to the Borrower’s business; and (iii) not allow any Intellectual Property material to the Borrower’s business to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without the prior written consent of the Agent.

(b) Provide written notice to the Agent within fifteen (15) days of entering or becoming bound by any Restricted License (other than over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public). The Borrower shall take such steps as the Agent reasonably request to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any person whose consent or waiver is necessary for (i) any Restricted License to be deemed “Collateral” and for the Agent to have a security interest in it that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such Restricted License, whether now existing or entered into in the future, and (ii) the Agent to have the ability in the event of a liquidation of any Collateral to dispose of such Collateral in accordance with the Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

6.8 Litigation Cooperation. From the date hereof and continuing through the termination of this Agreement, make available to the Agent, without expense to the Agent, the Borrower and its officers, employees and agents and the Borrower’s books and records, to the extent that the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may deem them reasonably necessary to prosecute or defend any third-party suit or proceeding instituted by or against the Agent with respect to any Collateral or relating to the Borrower.

6.9 Access to Collateral; Books and Records. Allow the Agent and the Required Lenders, or any of their respective agents, at reasonable times, on five (5) Business Days’ notice (provided no notice is required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to inspect the Collateral and audit and copy the Borrower’s Books. Such inspections or audits shall be conducted no more often than once every twelve (12) months unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The foregoing inspections and audits shall be at the Borrower’s expense.

6.10 Formation or Acquisition of Subsidiaries. At the time that the Borrower forms any direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary or acquires any direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary after the Effective Date, the Borrower shall, to the extent required pursuant to the Senior Loan Agreement, (a)

cause such new Domestic Subsidiary to become a co-borrower hereunder, together with such appropriate financing statements, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent (including being sufficient to grant the Agent a first priority Lien (subject to (i) Permitted Liens that expressly have superior priority to the Agent’s Lien under this Agreement, and (ii) in the case of Permitted Liens in favor of Senior Lender, the Subordination Agreement) in and to the assets of such newly formed or acquired Domestic Subsidiary (substantially as described on Exhibit A hereto)), (b) provide to the Agent appropriate certificates and powers and financing statements, pledging all of the direct or beneficial ownership interest in such new Domestic Subsidiary, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), and (c) provide to the Agent all other documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, including one or more opinions of counsel satisfactory to the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), which in its opinion is appropriate with respect to the execution and delivery of the applicable documentation referred to above. Any document, agreement, or instrument executed or issued pursuant to this Section 6.10 shall be a Loan Document.

6.11 Further Assurances. Execute any further instruments and take further action as the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) reasonably requests to perfect or continue its Liens in the Collateral or to effect the purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require the creation or perfection of pledges of or security interests in, or the obtaining of title insurance, legal opinions or other deliverables with respect to, particular assets of the Borrower, (a) if the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower reasonably agree that the cost, burden, difficulty or consequence of creating or perfecting such pledges or security interests in such assets, or obtaining such title insurance, legal opinions or other deliverables in respect of such assets, outweighs the benefits to be obtained by the Lenders therefrom, or (b) to the extent such actions would be taken under the law of a jurisdiction other than an jurisdiction within the United States with respect to any of Borrower’s assets outside of the United States. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent intellectual property security agreements in the form(s) requested by the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), duly executed, within ten (10) Business Days of the Effective Date (or if such forms are later received from the Agent, ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof), (ii) the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent supplements to the Perfection Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) within ten (10) Business Days of the Effective Date and (iii) the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Agent Control Agreement(s) with respect to each Collateral Account required hereunder to be subject to such a control agreement within forty-five (45) days of the Effective Date.

7.3 Mergers or Acquisitions. Except with respect to a Myalept Spin-Out Transaction, merge or consolidate, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to merge or consolidate, with any other Person, or acquire, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to acquire, all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of another Person.

8 EVENTS OF DEFAULT

The delivery by the Agent of a notice (a “Default Notice”) that one of the following shall have occurred shall constitute an event of default (an “Event of Default”) under this Agreement, provided that the mere occurrence of any event or condition set forth in Sections 8.5 and 8.6 shall be an Event of Default upon its occurrence or existence, as the case may be:

8.1 Payment Default. The Borrower fails to (a) make any payment of principal of the Term Loans when due or interest on the Term Loans within three Business Days after such interest is due , or (b) pay any other Obligations within ten (10) Business Days after such Obligations are due and payable (it being understood that no such cure period shall apply to payments due on the Term Loan Repayment Date); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the failure to make any cash payment described in clause (a) or (b) shall constitute an Event of Default thereunder notwithstanding whether a Payment Block exists on the date such payment is due. During the cure period, the failure to make or pay any payment specified under clause (a) or (b) hereunder is not an Event of Default.

8.2 Covenant Default.

(a) The Borrower fails or neglects to perform any obligation in Sections 6.5, 6.6, 6.7(b), or 6.10 or violates any covenant in Section 7; or

(b) The Borrower fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe any other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Loan Documents, and as

to any default (other than those specified in this Section 8) under such other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement that can be cured, has failed to cure the default within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof; provided, however, that if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the ten (10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by the Borrower be cured within such ten (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then the Borrower shall have an additional period (which shall not in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, and within such reasonable time period the failure to cure the default shall not be deemed an Event of Default. Cure periods provided under this section shall not apply, among other things, to financial covenants or any other covenants set forth in clause (a) above.

8.3 Material Adverse Change. A Material Adverse Change occurs and continues for more than ten (10) Business Days.

8.4 Attachment; Levy; Restraint on Business.

(a) The Borrower or any Responsible Officer makes a public statement or provides a written notice to any Person to the effect that the Borrower is unable to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they become due; (b) the Borrower begins an Insolvency Proceeding; or (c) an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against the Borrower and not dismissed or stayed within forty-five (45) days.

8.6 Other Agreements. There is, under any agreement to which the Borrower is a party with a third party or parties (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Senior Loan Agreement), (a) any default resulting in a right by such third party or parties, whether or not exercised, to accelerate the maturity of any Indebtedness in an amount individually or in the aggregate in excess of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000); or (b) any default by the Borrower, the result of which would have a material adverse effect on the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ business, taken as a whole.

8.7 Judgments. Other than any Disclosed Settlement, one or more final judgments, orders, or decrees for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) (not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which liability has been accepted by such insurance carrier) shall be rendered against the Borrower and the same are not, within ten (10) days after the entry thereof, discharged or execution thereof stayed or bonded pending appeal, or such judgments are not discharged prior to the expiration of any such stay.

8.8 Misrepresentations. The Borrower makes any representation, warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement or any Loan Document and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made.

8.9 Subordination Agreement; Senior Debt. Any document, instrument, or agreement evidencing any Senior Debt or the Subordination Agreement shall for any reason be revoked or invalidated or otherwise cease to be in full force and effect, any Person shall be in breach thereof or contest in any manner the validity or enforceability thereof or deny that it has any further liability or

obligation thereunder, or the Obligations shall for any reason be subordinated or shall not have the priority contemplated by this Agreement.

9 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Subject to the Subordination Agreement:

9.1 Rights and Remedies. While an Event of Default occurs and continues the Agent may (and, at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall), without notice or demand, do any or all of the following, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law;

(a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by the Lenders);

(b) reserved;

(d) reserved;

(e) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) considers advisable, notify any Person owing the Borrower money of the Agent’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;

(f) make any payments and do any acts the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interests in the Collateral. The Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) requests and make it available as the Agent designates at any location that is reasonably convenient to the Agent and the Borrower. The Agent may peaceably enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. The Borrower grants the Agent a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, by the Borrower, to exercise its rights or remedies hereunder;

(g) reserved;

(h) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. The Agent is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with the Agent’s exercise of its rights under this Section, the Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to the Agent’s benefit;

(i) reserved;

(j) demand and receive possession of the Borrower’s Books; and

(k) exercise all rights and remedies available to the Lenders under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

9.2 Power of Attorney. The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse the Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign the Borrower’s name on any invoice or xxxx of lading for any Account or drafts against the applicable account debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with the applicable account debtors, for amounts and on terms the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under the Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of the Agent or a third party as the Code permits. The Borrower hereby appoints the Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign the Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been satisfied in full and each Lender is under no further obligation hereunder. The Agent’s foregoing appointment as the Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of the Agent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid and performed.

9.3 Protective Payments. If the Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which the Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Agent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by the Agent are Lender Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. The Agent will make reasonable efforts to provide the Borrower with notice of the Agent’s obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by the Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or any Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default.

9.4 Allocation of Payments After Event of Default. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Agent or any Lender on account of the Obligations, or in respect of the Collateral may, at the Agent’s (at the direction of the Required Lenders) discretion, and shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders, be paid over or delivered as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of all Agent Expenses and, thereafter, Lender Expenses;

SECOND, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued interest on account of the Term Loans;

THIRD, to all other Obligations arising under this Agreement, under the Loan Documents or otherwise which shall have become due and payable and not repaid pursuant to the clauses above; and

FOURTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category and (ii) each of the Lenders shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied as set forth above

9.5 Lender Liability for Collateral. So long as the Agent complies with applicable law and reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of the Agent, the Agent shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. The Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

9.6 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Any Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of such Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Each Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Each Lender has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Any Lender’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude such Lender from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and such Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Any Lender’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

9.7 Demand Waiver. The Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by the Lenders on which the Borrower is liable.

11 CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

New York law governs the Loan Documents. Each of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in New York, New York; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude the Lenders from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of the Lenders. The Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and the Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable, relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. The Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to the Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of the Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

12 GENERAL PROVISIONS

12.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. The Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or

obligations under it without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders (which may be granted or withheld in the Required Lenders’ discretion). Each Lender has the right (with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or the Term Loan Repayment Date has occurred in either such case no such consent shall be required), to sell, transfer, assign, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, such Lender’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, subject to Sections 12.2.1 and 12.2.2.

12.2 Register and Participants.

12.2.1 Register. Each Lender shall provide, and the Borrower shall maintain at its offices, a copy of each agreement pursuant to which any Lender purports to sell, transfer, assign, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, such Lender’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower shall maintain at its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).

Each Lender hereby directs the Agent to sign this Agreement and each other Loan Document, including the Subordination Agreement, on behalf of such Lender.

13.2 Nature of Duties. The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Loan Documents. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless caused by their gross (not mere) negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any officer thereof set forth in this Agreement, or in any of the Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, due execution, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any of the Loan Documents or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder.

The Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by the Agent with reasonable care.

13.7 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the Loan Documents, unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Loan Documents, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to Lenders. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of Lenders.

As to questions of fact material to such opinions, we have relied solely and without investigation upon representations of the Borrower and its officers, made in or pursuant to the Loan Documents and certificates that have been received by us and certificates of public officials.

As used herein, the term “Applicable Laws” means (a) the federal laws of the United States of America (the “Federal Laws”) and the laws of the State of New York, each in effect as of the date hereof, that counsel exercising customary due diligence would reasonably recognize as being applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Loan Documents, (b) subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth below, the Delaware General Corporation Law, as in effect on the date hereof and (c) subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth below, solely for the purposes of our opinions in paragraph 7 below, and only to the extent provided therein, the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code (but not any rules or regulations thereunder or judicial interpretations thereof) as set forth in a recent compilation of the CCH Secured Transactions Reports (the “DUCC”). The term “Governmental Approval” means any consent, approval, license, authorization of, or filing, recording or registration with, any New York or

federal governmental authority (“Governmental Authority”) pursuant to the Applicable Laws. The term “NYUCC” refers to the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York on the date hereof.

The opinions expressed herein are based on and limited to the Applicable Laws and we express no opinion as to any other laws and we expressly note that we are members of the bar of the State of New York and are not admitted or licensed to practice in the State of Delaware.

When used in this letter, the phrase “to our knowledge” means the current actual conscious awareness of facts, without any investigation, by attorneys within our firm who are actively involved in representing the Borrower in connection with the matters referred to herein or in connection with the preparation of this opinion. We have not investigated any court docket.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Borrower is (a) a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, based solely on our review of the Charter and the Good Standing Certificate and (b) has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease, operate and encumber its property and to conduct its business as presently conducted.

2. The Borrower has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations under each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. The execution and delivery by the Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Borrower.

3. Each of the Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms.

4. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party do not and will not (i) violate the Charter or Bylaws, (ii) violate any provision of the Applicable Laws binding on the Borrower or its property or (iii) to our knowledge, violate any judgment, writ, injunction, decree, order or ruling of any court or Governmental Authority binding upon the Borrower.

5. The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which the Borrower is party thereto, the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the grant of the security interests under the Loan Agreement do not require any Governmental Approval, except (i) filings necessary to perfect, or to continue the perfection of, security interests in the Collateral, (ii) routine company filings required to be made after the date hereof unrelated to the incurrence of debt or liens, in order for the Borrower to operate its business in the ordinary course, (iii) supplements to

the Loan Agreement required therein in respect of certain Collateral, including, without limitation, commercial tort claims and registered patents, copyrights and trademarks, (iv) Governmental Approvals required for the exercise by the Lender of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents or Governmental Approvals that may be required by any banking, insurance or regulatory authority to which the Lender may be subject, (v) Governmental Approvals for Collateral as to which perfection is not governed by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and (vi) with respect to securities constituting Collateral, any action required in respect of a disposition of such securities pursuant to the Loan Agreement by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally.

6. The Loan Agreement creates the security interests it purports to create in favor of the Lender, for the benefit of the Lender, in the items and types of Collateral described therein in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the NYUCC (the “Article 9 Collateral”), as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

7. Based solely upon a review of the DUCC (and not any regulations or rules thereunder or judicial interpretations thereof and without any investigation or review of any other statutory provisions, regulations or rules or judicial decisions that may affect UCC financing statements or the perfection of a security interest in the State of Delaware) contained in a recent compilation of the CCH Secured Transactions Reports, to the extent that (i) the DUCC governs the perfection of a security interest in the Article 9 Collateral granted by the Borrower and (ii) a security interest in the Article 9 Collateral granted by the Borrower can be perfected by filing a financing statement in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware under the DUCC, as to which we express no opinion, the Financing Statement is in appropriate form for filing, and when duly filed with, and accepted by, the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to the DUCC, accompanied by the due payment of all applicable fees, such actions will result in the perfection of the Lender’s security interest in such portion of the Article 9 Collateral that can be perfected by such a filing. No opinion is given as to any Article 9 Collateral constituting as-extracted collateral located in the State of Delaware or timber to be cut located in the State of Delaware or fixtures located in the State of Delaware or goods that are or are to become fixtures located in the State of Delaware.

8. The Borrower is not required to register as an “investment company” under (and as defined in) the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following assumptions, qualifications and exceptions:

A. We wish to point out that Sections 9-301 through 9-307 of the NYUCC (and similar provisions of the DUCC) provide certain rules for the perfection of security interests in multiple state transactions. Such rules provide that the law of jurisdictions other than those covered in the opinions expressed herein may govern the perfection of the security interests created by the Loan Documents and the effect of perfection or non-perfection. However, we note that (i) Section 9-301(a) of the NYUCC and Section 9-301(1) of the

DUCC, as applicable, provides that, except as otherwise provided in the NYUCC or DUCC, as applicable, while a debtor is located in a jurisdiction, the local law of that jurisdiction governs perfection and the effect of perfection or non-perfection of a security interest in collateral and (ii) Section 9-307(e) of the NYUCC and DUCC provides that a registered organization that is organized under the laws of a state is located in that state.

B. We note that the validity, perfection and enforceability of a security interest in after acquired property, money, or certain securities or instruments are subject to limitations under the Bankruptcy Code (including Section 552), and we express no opinion with respect thereto. We also note that the security interest in the proceeds of any Collateral may be subject to Section 9-315 of the NYUCC. In addition, no opinion is expressed with respect to (i) the validity or enforceability of any provision of the Loan Documents purporting to give a security interest in a claim or right with respect to any insurance policy, other than “health-care-insurance receivables” (as defined in the NYUCC), (ii) the validity or enforceability of those provisions of the Loan Documents relating to the creation or existence of security interests in commercial tort claims or (iii) except as set forth in paragraph 7 above, the perfection of any security interests or other interests in, or rights with respect to, other Article 9 Collateral that may not be perfected by the filing of a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement in the State of Delaware.

C. We call to your attention that in many cases where the NYUCC renders anti-assignment provisions contained in agreements, instruments or other documentation creating or evidencing collateral ineffective for the purposes of the creation, attachment or perfection of a security interest, the security interest may not be enforceable against the account debtor or other Person obligated under such agreement, instrument or other documentation.

D. No opinion is given as to the effectiveness of any security interest or pledge of a contract or other asset which contains a prohibition of such pledge or a security interest except to the extent such prohibition is expressly overridden pursuant to NYUCC.

E. The opinions set forth above are subject to (i) provisions of Section 9-615 of the NYUCC (and similar provisions of the DEUC) which limit the ability of a secured party to collect a deficiency from a “debtor” or “obligor” (including guarantors) in the event a sale of collateral is not conducted in a commercially reasonable manner or in the event of certain dispositions to the secured party or a Person related to a secured party, (ii) provisions of Section 9-602 of the NYUCC (and similar provisions of the DEUCC) which limits any provision in any Loan Document which purports to define whether any disposition constitutes a commercially reasonable disposition and (iii) provisions of Section 9-602 of the NYUCC (and similar provisions of the DEUCC) which limits any provision in any Loan Document which purports to waive certain rights of the Borrower or any other obligor or certain duties of any secured party. We note that sales by the Lender or any other secured party under the Loan Documents of Collateral constituting securities under applicable Federal Laws or state securities laws require compliance with such laws or an exemption therefrom.

F. For purposes of Section 9-503(a)(1) of the DUCC, we assume that the Charter constitutes the Public Organic Record (as defined in the DUCC) of the State of Delaware which shows the Borrower to have been organized and which indicates the correct name of the Borrower. In addition, we assume that the Financing Statement correctly sets forth the name of the Lender.

G. The opinions expressed above are qualified (i) by the effects of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) insofar as the remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and the discretion of the court before which any enforcement thereof may be brought and (iii) insofar as enforcement proceedings may be limited by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity), including principles of commercial reasonableness and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Such principles of equity are of general application, and in applying such principles, a court, among other things, might not allow a creditor to accelerate the maturity of a debt, to realize upon any security for the payment of such debt upon the occurrence of a default deemed immaterial, or to exercise any right of set-off with respect to debt which is neither matured nor accelerated, or might decline to order the Borrower to specifically perform covenants. Insofar as provisions of the Loan Documents provide for indemnification, the enforcement thereof may be limited by public policy considerations or other applicable law. Such opinions are further subject to the qualification that certain remedial provisions of the Loan Documents are or may be unenforceable in whole or in part under the laws of the State of New York, but the inclusion of such provisions does not affect the validity of any Loan Document in which any such provision is included, and such Loan Documents contain adequate provisions for enforcing payment of the obligations thereunder and for the practical realization of the rights and benefits intended to be afforded thereby.

H. We express no opinion as to the effect of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York in which any Lender (or assignee of or participant in any of the rights and/or obligations of any Lender under the Loan Documents) may be located or in which enforcement of the Loan Documents may be sought which limits the rates of interest legally chargeable or collectible.

I. We express no opinion as to (i) whether any Person has title to any Collateral or, except as set forth in paragraph 7 above, whether any security interest therein is perfected, (ii) the priority of any security interest, (iii) any provisions of the Loan Documents insofar as they relate to (1) the subject matter jurisdiction of the federal courts to adjudicate any controversy relating to the Loan Documents, (2) the waiver of defenses and the waiver of inconvenient forum and the advance waiver of claims, defense and rights granted under applicable law, (3) the waiver of the right to a jury trial or of notice, opportunity for a hearing, evidentiary requests, statutes of limitation or other procedural rights, (4) the waiver of objection of venue set forth in the Loan Documents with respect to proceedings in the courts specified therein, (5) the establishment of a contractual rate of interest after

judgment, (6) adjustments of payments among Lenders or rights of set-off, recoupments or counterclaims, (7) obligations to make any agreement in the future, (8) severability, (9) determinations whether any particular sale of Collateral is commercially reasonable, (10) any provisions for liquidated damages, (11) provisions for default interest, late charges or other economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute a penalty, (12) in any event and without limiting the other laws excluded above from the coverage of this opinion, securities laws (except as set forth in paragraph 9 above), commodities laws, blue sky laws, zoning laws, tax laws, antitrust or trade regulation laws, energy, utilities, national security, anti-terrorism, anti-money laundering, municipal, antifraud laws, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act, the small business investment company act and any rule, law or legislation arising under any Bail-In Legislation, (13) exclusivity, election or accumulation of rights or remedies, (14) any provisions purporting to obligate the Borrower to cause any Person (other than a Subsidiary of the Borrower) to take or omit to take any action and grants of powers of attorney or proxies to any Lender, (15) limitations on the effectiveness of oral amendments, modifications, consents and waivers, (16) except to the limited extent set forth in opinion paragraph 6, the creation, continuation or renewal of any security interest or other lien, (17) exculpation or exoneration clauses, indemnity clauses and clauses relating to releases or waivers of unmatured claims or rights, (18) provisions evidencing liabilities or other obligations inherently vague, indeterminate or indefinite, or (19) the effect of any federal or state fraudulent conveyance or transfer law, including Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, as amended, on the opinions set forth above.

J. Except as set forth in opinion paragraph 4 above, we express no opinion with respect to breaches, violations or defaults, in each case with respect to any financial covenants or financial tests in any agreement or instrument or any cross-default provision relating thereto.

K. We assume that the Financing Statement correctly sets forth the mailing address of the Lender and the Borrower.

L. No opinion is given as to the waiver of presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind under the Loan Agreement.

M. Article 9 of the DUCC requires the filing of continuation statements within the six month period prior to the date of the expiration of five years from the date of the original UCC-1 filing (and each fifth anniversary thereof if there are subsequent filings of a continuation statement) in order to maintain the effectiveness of the filings referred to in opinion paragraph 7 above. We accept no responsibility or obligation to you, the Borrower or any affiliates of either thereof for the filing of such continuation statements or any amendments with respect to the financing statement referred to herein.

N. No opinion is given as to any obligation of the Borrower in respect of any swap or security based swap constituting an Obligation if the Borrower is not an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act.

O. We note that (i) subsequent filings or recordings under the DUCC will be necessary to preserve and maintain the perfection of the security interest referred to in paragraph 7 above, including without limitation filings required by Sections 9-301, 9-315(d), 9-316, 9-507, 9-508 and 9-515 of the DUCC and (ii) routine corporate filings may be required to be made after the date hereof to maintain good standing and to maintain or renew licenses and permits required for the Borrower to operate its business in the ordinary course.

This opinion letter is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. This opinion letter may not be quoted, distributed or disclosed, without our prior written consent, except (a) to your counsel, your auditors and bank examiners, (b) to any state or federal governmental or other regulatory authority, (c) pursuant to legal process of any court or governmental or regulatory authority, or (d) to actual or prospective bona fide successors, participants and assignees, in each case in accordance with the Loan Documents and subject to the express terms of the last two paragraphs of this opinion.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof and is limited to present law, statutes, regulations and administrative and judicial interpretations of the Applicable Laws. We undertake no responsibility or obligation to update or supplement this opinion letter after the date hereof, including without limitation with respect to any action which may be required in the future to create a valid lien on after-acquired property or to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest, including after a change in the name, identity, corporate structure or location of the Borrower, and including whether or not changes in facts or laws come to our attention after the date hereof. Further we undertake no responsibility or obligation to you, the Borrower or any affiliates of either to file financing statements or continuation statements or other documents to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest.

No person or entity may rely or claim reliance upon this opinion letter other than you and your permitted actual successors and assigns and participants in accordance with the Loan Agreement; provided that in any event any reliance by a permitted successor or assign or participant must be as of the stated date of this opinion and must also be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time of the succession or assignment or sale, including with respect to any changes in laws or facts or other developments known or reasonably knowable by such successor or assignee or participant at such time, and in no event shall any permitted successor or assign or participant have any greater rights with respect hereto than the original addressees hereof on the date hereof.

Very truly yours,

Certificate Number [·]

NOVELION THERAPEUTICS INC.

(Incorporated under the Laws of British Columbia)

[·] Warrants	Right to Purchase
	[·] Common Shares

WARRANTS FOR PURCHASE OF COMMON SHARES

THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT, for value received, [·],a [·] (the “Holder”), is the holder of [·] common share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant entitles the Holder to subscribe for and purchase one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share in the capital of Novelion Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company”) at any time or times prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on March 16, 2022 (the “Time of Expiry”) at the price of USD$4.40 per Common Share (the “Exercise Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant Certificate. The number of Common Shares which the Holder is entitled to acquire upon exercise of a Warrant and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Whether or not expressly set forth herein, all amounts payable hereunder, including the Exercise Price if paid in cash, shall be paid in United States Dollars.

The Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part or parts (but not as to a fractional share), by surrender of this Warrant Certificate (properly endorsed) with the Subscription Form appended hereto as Schedule A or any other written notice in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company duly completed and executed by the Holder, duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and manner reasonably satisfactory to the Company, at the office of the Company in accordance with Section 12 hereof, together with the purchase price of such Common Shares as herein provided.

The Warrant Certificate and such payment shall be deemed not to have been surrendered and made except upon personal delivery thereof or, if sent by post or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by the Company at the office specified above.

Subject to Section 4, the purchase price of Common Shares subscribed for hereunder shall be paid by certified cheque, money order, bank draft payable to or to the order of the Company in lawful money of the United States of America or wire transfer of immediately available funds, or any combination of the foregoing, in each case, in the discretion of the Holder.

In the event of any exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate in accordance with the terms hereof, (a) Common Shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Common Shares to or resale of the Common Shares by the Holder or (B) the Common Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (and the Holder has delivered a legal opinion in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company to such effect), and otherwise (b) by physical delivery of certificates for the Common Shares or confirmation of book entry issuance for the Common Shares (as may be directed by the Holder) so purchased will be delivered to the Person(s) in whose name(s) the Common Shares so subscribed for are to be issued within two Business Days (“Warrant Share Delivery Date”) of the exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate (or if the share transfer books of the Company are properly closed, within two Business Days of the opening of said share transfer books), such Person(s) shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Common Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by the Company and, unless (i) this Warrant Certificate has expired or (ii) all of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate have been exercised, a new Warrant Certificate representing the unexercised balance of the Warrants will also be issued to the Holder within such time at the expense of the Company.

If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Common Shares subject to an exercise notice by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Common Shares subject to such exercise (based on the Current Market Price on the date of the applicable exercise notice), $5 per Trading Day (increasing to $10 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date (subject to receipt of the aggregate Exercise Price for the applicable exercise (other than in the case of a cashless exercise)) until such Common Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the Depository Trust Company Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. The payments contemplated by this paragraph shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof; provided however nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue equitable remedies including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the such failure.

[Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not issue to the Holder, and the Holder may not acquire, a number of Common Shares upon exercise of this Warrant to the extent that, upon such exercise, the number of Common Shares then beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Shares would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (including shares held by any “group” of which the Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein), would exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, as defined below. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.985% of the number of Company’s Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions, provided any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and the percentage held by the Holder shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days, confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding.]

If the Common Shares are not then traded on the Principal Securities Exchange, an over-the-counter market or on a recognized exchange or market, the Current Market Price of a Common Share shall be the fair market value of a Common Share as agreed to by the board of directors of the Company and the Holder, acting in good faith, and absent such agreement, as determined by an independent valuator reasonably acceptable to both the Company and the Holder; provided, that the fair market value determined by the independent valuator shall not be (a) higher than the highest fair market value proposed by the board of directors of the Company or the Holder, or (b) lower than the lowest fair market value proposed by the board of directors of the Company or the Holder.

Section 2 Adjustments.

Subject to Section 3, the Exercise Price and the Exchange Basis will be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided as follows:

(a) Common Share Reorganization. If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Company:

(i) issues Common Shares, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, to all or substantially all the holders of the Common Shares as a stock dividend or other distribution payable in Common Shares or securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares (other than for greater certainty pursuant to the exercise of directors’, officers’, employees’ or service providers’ stock options granted under the Company’s stock or other equity compensation plans);

(ii) subdivides, redivides or changes its then outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares; or

(iii) reduces, combines or consolidates its then outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of shares,

(any of such events in these clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) being called a “Common Share Reorganization”), then the Exchange Basis will be adjusted effective immediately after the effective date of, or the record date at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of, the Common Share Reorganization, by multiplying the Exchange Basis in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date by a fraction:

(A) the numerator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had such securities been exercised or exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such effective date or record date, assuming in any case where such securities are not then exercisable, convertible or exchangeable but subsequently become so, that they were exercisable, convertible or exchangeable on the effective date or record date on the basis upon which they first become exercisable, convertible or exchangeable); and

(B) the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization.

The resulting product, adjusted to the nearest 1/100th, will thereafter be the Exchange Basis until further adjusted as provided in this Section 2.

(b) Distributions. If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Company will fix a record date for the distribution or dividend to all or substantially all the holders of the Common Shares of any property or other assets (including any securities, rights, options, warrants or other securities issued by a Person other than the Company) excluding any regular cash dividends but including any evidences of indebtedness and provided that such distribution or dividend does not constitute a Common Share Reorganization (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “Distribution”), the Exchange Basis will be adjusted effective immediately after the record date for the Distribution by multiplying the Exchange Basis in effect on such record date by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be:

(A) an amount equal to (x) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and (y) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date, less

(B) the fair market value on such record date, as determined by action by the directors of the Company, acting reasonably and in good faith, subject to the prior written consent of each Principal Securities Exchange (to the extent required by the rules and regulations thereof), to the holders of the Common Shares of the property or other assets distributed or dividended in the Distribution; provided that no such adjustment will be made if the result of such adjustment would be to decrease the Exchange Basis in effect immediately before such record date. The resulting product, adjusted to the nearest 1/100th, will thereafter be the Exchange Basis until further adjusted as provided in this Section 2.

(c) Capital Reorganization. If and whenever, at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry, there will be a reclassification of Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares (other than a Common Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation, plan of arrangement or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other Person (other than a consolidation, amalgamation, plan of arrangement or merger which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other shares), or a sale, conveyance or transfer (other than to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) of the undertakings or assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other Person, in each case resulting in a reclassification of the Common Shares or any

change of the Common Shares into other shares, securities or property or in the holders of the outstanding Common Shares receiving, directly or indirectly, other shares, securities or property (any of such events being herein called a “Capital Reorganization”), the Holder upon exercising its right to receive Common Shares pursuant to the terms of this Warrant Certificate will be entitled to receive, and will accept in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property (including cash) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date or record date thereof, as the case may be, the Holder was the Holder of the number of Common Shares to which it was theretofore entitled upon exercise. If determined appropriate by action of the directors of the Company, adjustments will be made as a result of a Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Section 2 with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder following such Capital Reorganization to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 2 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property deliverable upon the exercise hereof. Any such adjustment must be made by and set forth in an amendment to this Warrant Certificate approved by action by the directors of the Company, acting reasonably and in good faith.

(d) Any adjustment to the Exchange Basis pursuant to Section 2(a) including any readjustment, will include a corresponding adjustment to the Exercise Price which will be calculated by multiplying the Exercise Price by a fraction: (i) the numerator of which will be the Exchange Basis immediately prior to such adjustment, and (ii) the denominator of which will be the Exchange Basis immediately following the adjustment.

(e) In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in this Section 2 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 2 would result in an adjustment in the Exchange Basis or Exercise Price or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant Certificate), the Company shall give notice to the Holder, in the manner set forth in Section 12, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exchange Basis or Exercise Price or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant Certificate. Subject to Applicable Canadian Securities Laws, the notice described in this Section 2(e) shall be given concurrently with notice the action of the type described in this Section 2 to all holders of Common Shares. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action, except to the extent the Holder is materially prejudiced thereby.

Section 3 Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Exchange Basis.

For the purposes of Section 2:

(a) The adjustments provided for in Section 2 will be cumulative and will be made successively upon the occurrence of an event described therein, subject to this Section 3. For greater certainty, if any action would require adjustment pursuant to more than one of the provisions described in Section 2 in a manner such that such adjustments are duplicative, only one adjustment shall be made.

(b) No adjustment in the Exchange Basis will be required unless such adjustment would result in a change to the then prevailing Exchange Basis of at least 1% or of at least 1/100th of a Common Share based on the prevailing Exchange Basis, provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this Section 3(b) would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

(c) No adjustment in the Exchange Basis will be made in respect of any event described in Section 2(a)(i) and Section 2(b) if the Holder, in its capacity as a holder of this Warrant Certificate, is entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Holder had exercised its Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event.

(d) No adjustment in the Exchange Basis will be made pursuant to Section 2 in respect of the issue from time to time of:

(i) Common Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants; or

(ii) Common Shares pursuant to any stock options, stock option plan, stock purchase plan, restricted share units or restricted share unit plans, or other benefit plans in force at the date hereof for directors, officers, employees, advisors or consultants of the Company in their capacity as such, as such option or plan is amended or superseded from time to time in accordance with the requirements of any applicable Principal Securities Exchange and Applicable Canadian Securities Laws, and such other benefit plans as may be adopted by the Company in compliance with the requirements of any applicable Principal Securities Exchange and Applicable Canadian Securities Laws,

and, for the avoidance of doubt, any such issue shall be deemed not to be a Common Share Reorganization, Distribution or Capital Reorganization.

(e) If a dispute at any time arises with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 2, the resolution of such dispute will be conclusively determined, at the Company’s expense, by a firm of independent chartered accountants as may be agreed by the Company and the Holder, each acting reasonably, and any such determination will be binding upon the Company and the Holder.

(f) If the Company sets a record date to determine the holders of the Common Shares for the purpose of effecting a transaction described in Section 2 and thereafter and before effecting such transaction, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such

dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment in the Exchange Basis by reason of the setting of such record date shall be made.

(g) In the absence of a resolution of the directors fixing a record date for a Distribution, the Company will be deemed to have fixed as the record date therefor the date on which the Distribution is affected.

(h) The Company will take any action which may be necessary or advisable in order for the Company to have unissued and reserved in its authorized capital, and validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable, all the shares or other securities of the Company which the Holder is entitled to receive on the exercise of the Warrants following any adjustment set forth in Section 2.

(i) Any adjustments to the Exchange Basis and the Exercise Price pursuant to this Warrant Certificate shall be subject to the prior approval, if required, of the Principal Securities Exchange.

Section 4 Cashless Exercise of Warrants.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and provided that the Warrants could otherwise be exercised in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder may elect to exercise the Warrants, in whole or in part, without payment of the aggregate Exercise Price due on such exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”) in the manner set out in this Section 4. If the Holder elects a Cashless Exercise, the Holder shall provide written notice of the election to the Company in the form of cashless exercise notice appended hereto as Schedule B or any other written notice in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (a “Cashless Exercise Notice”). Upon actual receipt by the Company of a Cashless Exercise Notice, a certificate or confirmation of book entry issuance (as directed by the Holder) for the appropriate number of Common Shares will be delivered to the Person(s) in whose name(s) the Common Shares so subscribed for are to be issued within two Business Days of receipt of the Cashless Exercise Notice (or if the share transfer books of the Company are properly closed, within two Business Days of the opening of said share transfer books), such Person(s) shall become a holder in respect of such Common Shares with effect from the date of such exercise, and, unless this Warrant Certificate has expired, a new Warrant Certificate representing the unexercised balance of the Warrants, if any, or all of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate having been exercised will also be issued to the Holder within such time.

(b) The number of Common Shares to be issued to the Holder upon a Cashless Exercise shall be determined as follows:

X =

Y x (A-B)
A

Where: X = the number of Common Shares to be issued to the Holder upon exercising the Warrants; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that if the foregoing calculation results in a negative number, then no Common Shares shall be issuable via a Cashless Exercise;

Y = the number of Warrants being exercised;

A = the Current Market Price per Common Share as of the applicable exercise date; and

B = the Exercise Price of the Warrants as of the applicable exercise date.

(c) If the number of Common Shares to be issued to the Holder exercising its Warrants on a cashless basis in accordance with Section 4(a) above results in a fractional number, the Company will, in lieu of delivering the fractional Common Share, satisfy the right to receive such fractional interest by payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal (computed in the case of a fraction of a cent to the next lower cent) to the value of the right to acquire such fractional interest on the basis of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the date of exercise.

(d) If Holder elects the method of exercise set forth in this Section 4, the “exchange” of the Warrants is intended to qualify as a recapitalization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the parties hereto shall report consistently therewith for all tax purposes.

Section 5 Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

The Company represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that as of the date of this Warrant Certificate until the Time of Expiry:

(a) The Common Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate will, upon issuance and payment therefor of the amount at which such Common Shares may at the time be purchased pursuant to the provisions hereof (including pursuant to a Cashless Exercise), be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and in each case, be free and clear of any Liens (other than Liens granted by the Holder);

(b) The Company will reserve and keep available at all times a sufficient number of unissued Common Shares out of its authorized capital to provide for the exercise in full, at any time, of the rights represented by this Warrant Certificate;

(c) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a listing of its Common Shares on NASDAQ or other Principal Securities Exchange, provided that nothing contained in this clause (c) shall be construed to limit (or to

limit) the right of the Company to engage in a transaction that may result in it ceasing to be so listed;

(d) The Company has taken and will take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary and as are within its power to ensure that all those Common Shares and Warrants issued or issuable pursuant to this Warrant Certificate may be so issued without violation of Applicable Canadian Securities Law; and

(e) The Company will promptly advise the Holder of any defaults under this Warrant Certificate.

Section 6 Exercise of Warrants; Registration Rights.

(1) Neither this Warrant Certificate nor the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise hereof have been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), and this Warrant may not be exercised by or on behalf of a U.S. person (as that term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, a “U.S. Person”) or a Person in the United States in the absence of either (a) an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable state securities Laws and the delivery to the Company of a written opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, acting reasonably, to the effect that such registration is not required, or (b) delivery to the Company of written confirmation by the Person exercising the Warrant that it is the original Holder thereof and affirming, as of the date of such exercise, that it is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the U.S. Securities Act.

(2) The Holder may exercise the right hereby conferred on the Holder to acquire Common Shares at any time and from time to time prior to the Time of Expiry (subject to the provisions of this Section 6) by:

(a) duly completing and executing the subscription form (the “Subscription Form”) attached as Schedule A to this Warrant Certificate (or any other written notice in a form satisfactory to the Company) and a Cashless Exercise Notice, if applicable;

(b) certifying that the Holder or (if different) the recipient of the Common Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Warrant either: (i) is not (a) a U.S. Person, (b) exercising the Warrant on behalf of or for the account of a U.S. Person, and (c) physically located in the United States at the time that the Warrants are exercised and did not execute or deliver the Subscription Form in the United States; or (ii) at or prior to the time of such exercise, has delivered to the Company a written opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, acting reasonably, to the effect that the issuance of Common Shares upon such exercise are exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act; and

(c) surrendering this Warrant Certificate, together with, in the case of Warrants not being exercised on a cashless basis in accordance with Section 4, the Holder’s certified cheque, bank draft, money order or wire transfer (or any combination of the foregoing, in each case, in the discretion of the Holder) of immediately

available funds in the full amount of the total aggregate Exercise Price of each Warrant being exercised, together with the duly completed and executed Subscription Form (or any other written notice in a form satisfactory to the Company) and Cashless Exercise Notice, if applicable, to the Company in accordance with Section 12.

(3) The Holder may exercise Warrants in respect of a number of Common Shares which is less than the total number of Common Shares into which the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may be exercised. In such a case, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, at the Company’s expense, a new certificate in respect of the Warrants evidenced hereby that are not so exercised. This Warrant Certificate shall be deemed to be surrendered only upon personal delivery thereof to, or if sent by mail or other means of transmission, upon actual receipt thereof by, the Company in accordance with Section 12.

(4) One Warrant, together with the Exercise Price therefor, is required to purchase one Common Share, subject to adjustment in accordance to the terms of this Warrant and to Cashless Exercise.

(5) The Warrants shall expire and all rights to purchase Common Shares hereunder shall cease and become null and void at the Time of Expiry.

(6) Nothing herein contained or done pursuant hereto shall obligate the Holder to purchase or pay for, or the Company to issue, any securities except those securities in respect of which the Holder shall have exercised its right to purchase hereunder in the manner herein provided.

(7) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, including any adjustment provided for herein, the Company will not be required to issue fractional Common Shares in satisfaction of its obligations hereunder. If any fractional interest in a Common Share would be deliverable upon the exercise of a Warrant, the Company will, in lieu of delivering the fractional Common Share, satisfy the right to receive such fractional interest by payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal (computed in the case of a fraction of a cent to the next lower cent) to the value of the right to acquire such fractional interest on the basis of the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the date of exercise.

(8) Notwithstanding anything herein contained, no Common Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant if the issuance of such Common Shares would, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, constitute a violation of the securities Laws of any applicable jurisdiction or the requirements of any Principal Securities Exchange, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any of the Warrants are exercised prior to expiry of any hold period or other resale restriction placed thereon by such Laws or requirements, the certificates evidencing the Common Shares thereby issued will bear such legend as is required under applicable securities Laws and that, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, is necessary in order to avoid a violation of any such Laws or requirements.

(9) Upon request of the Holder (which the Holder may deliver from time to time on one or more occasions), the Company shall file a registration statement covering any or all Common Shares issued or issuable to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant Certificate, which registration statement shall provide for the resale of such shares and shall be on Form S-3 to the extent the Company is then eligible to utilize such form for any such registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to file any registration statement pursuant to this Section 6(9) unless the anticipated aggregate proceeds to the Holder for such registration (before giving effect to underwriters discounts or commissions) is at least $1,500,000. Following the filing thereof, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as promptly as practicable. The Company will bear all costs associated with preparation and filing the registration statement and maintaining the effectiveness of such registration statement and all other costs and expenses incurred in connection with any offering made pursuant to the terms thereof (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of one counsel for the Holder), but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to remain effective until all shares subject thereto have been sold or otherwise disposed of by the Holder. If the Holder shall elect for any such registration to be an underwritten offering, the Company shall provide such assistance in connection therewith as the Holder may reasonably request, including allowing the underwriters to conduct due diligence and causing the accountants and counsel to the Company to cooperate in connection therewith, including by providing customary comfort letters and legal opinions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder shall not have the right to exercise the registration rights set forth herein if, as of the time of any such exercise, the Holder and its Affiliates would be able to sell all of the shares of Common Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants without registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act.

(10) The Company shall indemnify Holder and, as applicable, each of its officers, Affiliates, directors, partners, beneficiaries, members, and each person controlling each such Holder within the meaning of either Section 15 of the U.S. Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, with respect to each registration effected pursuant to the terms hereof, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the U.S. Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document utilized in connection with any such registration, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the U.S. Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, and will reimburse each such Holder and, as applicable, each of its Affiliates, officers, directors, partners, beneficiaries, and members, and each person controlling each such Holder within the meaning of either Section 15 of the U.S. Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each such underwriter and each person

who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the U.S. Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission (or alleged untrue statement or omission) based upon written information furnished to the Company by the Holder or the underwriters in connection with any such registration and stated to be specifically for use in any registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document utilized in connection with any such registration.

Section 7 Register of Warrants.

At all times while Warrants are outstanding, the Company shall maintain a register of all Holders of Warrants on which shall be entered the names, latest known addresses of all Holders and if available, the facsimile numbers and email addresses of such Holders and particulars of the Warrants held by them and a register of transfers in which shall be entered the particulars of all transfers of Warrants, such registers to be kept by and at the office of the Company. The register of Warrants and the register of transfer of Warrants shall be open for inspection by the Holder during normal business hours of the Company.

Section 8 Transfer of Warrants.

(1) Other than as may be limited pursuant to Section 9, this Warrant Certificate and the Warrants represented hereby may be transferred or assigned.

(2) This Warrant Certificate may only be transferred on the register of the Company by the Holder thereof or its legal Representatives or attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and execution reasonably satisfactory to the Company in accordance with applicable Laws. The Warrants and the Common Shares issuable hereunder are and may continue to be subject to resale restrictions and hold periods, and the Holder should consult its legal advisor in respect of the same. Such transfer will be effected upon surrender to the Company at the office of the Company in accordance with Section 12 hereof of this Warrant Certificate for cancellation and the duly completed and executed transfer form (the “Transfer Form”) attached hereto as Schedule C, and upon compliance, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company, with:

(a) the conditions herein;

(b) such reasonable requirements as the Company may require; and

(c) all Applicable Canadian Securities Laws and requirements of regulatory authorities and all stock exchanges upon which the Common Shares are listed from time to time.

(3) After such transfer, the term “Holder” shall mean and include any transferee or assignee of the current Holder or any subsequent Holder. Upon compliance with Section 8(2), the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates in

the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such Transfer Form, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant Certificate shall promptly be cancelled.

(4) For each Warrant transferred, the Company shall charge to the Holder requesting such transfer a reasonable sum for each new Warrant certificate issued, which sum shall solely cover the Company’s out-of-pocket expenses for such issuance, and payment of such charges and reimbursement of the Company for any and all stamp taxes or governmental or other charges required to be paid shall be made by the Holder requesting the transfer of this Warrant Certificate as a condition precedent thereto.

Section 9 Legend.

(1) Any certificate representing Common Shares issued in the United States or to or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person upon exercise of the Warrants will bear the following legends:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OTHER THAN (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OR (B) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, AFTER THE HOLDER HAS FURNISHED TO THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION, IN EITHER CASE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY.

and

“THE PRESENCE OF THIS LEGEND MAY IMPAIR THE ABILITY OF THE HOLDER HEREOF TO EFFECT GOOD DELIVERY OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ON AN EXCHANGE. A CERTIFICATE WITHOUT A LEGEND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE COMMON SHARES OF THE COMPANY IN

CONNECTION WITH A SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND AN EXECUTED DECLARATION BY THE SELLER, IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT AND THE COMPANY, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH SALE IS BEING MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.”

(2) The certificate or certificates representing Common Shares issued before the date that is July 16, 2018, upon exercise of the Warrants represented hereby shall be impressed with a legend substantially in the following form:

“UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE JULY 16, 2018.”

Section 10 Not a Shareholder.

Nothing in this Warrant Certificate or in the holding of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate will be construed as conferring on the Holder any right or interest whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company, including but not limited to, any right to vote at, to receive notice of, or to attend any meeting of shareholders or any other proceeding of the Company or any right to receive any dividend or other distributions, prior to the Holder’s exercise of Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof and the subscription for Common Shares in connection therewith.

Section 11 Amendment.

The terms of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate may be amended, and the observance of any term thereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by the Company and the Holder of the Warrants. Any such amendment shall be subject to receipt by the Company of all required approvals (if any) from any Principal Securities Exchange, security holders of the Company and all applicable securities regulatory authorities.

Section 12 Notice.

(1) Any notice, direction or other instrument required or permitted to be given under this Warrant by or to the Company or by or to the Holder shall be in writing and may be given by delivering, sending by facsimile or email (return receipt requested) to the following addresses:

Section 14 General.

(1) The Company may deem and treat the Holder of the Warrants as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, except where the Company should have actual notice or knowledge to the contrary or except where the Company is required to take notice by statute or by Order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Holder shall be entitled to the Warrants evidenced hereby, free from all equities or rights of set off or counterclaim between the Company and the original or any intermediate holder of such Warrants. The valid issue of Common Shares by the Company upon the exercise of Warrants by the Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein shall discharge all

responsibilities of the Company with respect to such Warrants and the Company shall not be bound to inquire into the title of any such Holder except where the Company is required to take notice by statute or by Order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(a) the validity, legality or enforceability of such remaining provisions or parts thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired by the severance of the provisions or parts thereof severed;

If the payment of any amount is deferred for any period, then such period shall be included for purposes of the computation of any interest payable hereunder.

(5) This Warrant Certificate and all of its provisions shall enure to the benefit of the Holder, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal Representatives and assigns and shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and permitted assigns. The expression the “Holder” as used herein shall include the Holder’s assigns whether immediate or derivative.

(6) This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the Province of British Columbia and the Laws of Canada applicable therein but the reference to such Laws shall not, by conflict of laws rules or otherwise, require the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the Province of British Columbia. The Company and the Holder each hereby irrevocably attorns to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of the Province of British Columbia for any dispute or controversy related to this Warrant Certificate or the Warrants represented hereby.
