ARTICLE 6

RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES

6.1   Arbitration – If Not Principally Related to Convertible Securities Issues

Any dispute between the Parties arising during the period of this Agreement or at any time thereafter which touches upon the validity, construction, meaning, performance or effect of this Agreement or the rights and liabilities of the Parties or any matter arising out of or connected with this Agreement, except a dispute principally related to the Convertible Securities, shall be exclusively and definitively resolved through final and binding arbitration.

(a) The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with and subject to The Institute of Arbitrators & Mediators Australia Rules for the Conduct of Commercial Arbitrations.

(b) The arbitration shall be conducted by three arbitrators, unless all parties to the dispute agree to a sole arbitrator within 30 days after the filing of the arbitration.

(c) If the arbitration is to be conducted by a sole arbitrator, then the arbitrator will be jointly selected by the parties to the dispute.  If the parties to the dispute fail to agree on the arbitrator within 30 days after the filing of the arbitration, then the IAMA shall appoint the arbitrator. If the arbitration is to be conducted by three arbitrators and there are only two parties to the dispute, then each party to the dispute shall appoint one arbitrator within 30 days of the filing of the arbitration, and the two arbitrators so appointed shall select the presiding arbitrator within 30 days after the latter of the two arbitrators has been appointed by the parties to the   

-22-

dispute.  If a party to the dispute fails to appoint its party-appointed arbitrator or if the two party-appointed arbitrators cannot reach an agreement on the presiding arbitrator within the applicable time period, then the IAMA shall appoint the remainder of the three arbitrators not yet appointed.

(d) Unless otherwise agreed by all parties to the dispute, the place of arbitration shall be Sydney, New South Wales.

(e) The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding.  Judgment on the award of the arbitral tribunal may be entered and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.

(f) Any party to the dispute may apply to a court for interim measures (i) prior to the constitution of the arbitral tribunal (and thereafter as necessary to enforce the arbitral tribunal’s rulings); or (ii) in the absence of the jurisdiction of the arbitral tribunal to rule on interim measures in a given jurisdiction.  The Parties agree that seeking and obtaining such interim measures shall not waive the right to arbitration.  The arbitrators (or in an emergency the presiding arbitrator acting alone in the event one or more of the other arbitrators is unable to be involved in a timely fashion) may grant interim measures including injunctions, attachments and conservation orders in appropriate circumstances, which measures may be immediately enforced by court order.  Hearings on requests for interim measures may be held in person, by telephone, by video conference or by other means that permit the parties to the dispute to present evidence and arguments.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any party to the dispute may have recourse to and shall be bound by the Pre-arbitral Referee Procedure of the International Chamber of Commerce in accordance with its rules then in effect.

(g) The arbitral tribunal is authorized to award costs and attorneys’ fees and to allocate them between the parties to the dispute.  The costs of the arbitration proceedings, including attorneys’ fees, shall be borne in the manner determined by the arbitral tribunal.   

(h) The Parties waive their rights to claim or recover, and the arbitral tribunal shall not award, any punitive, multiple, or other exemplary damages (whether statutory or common law) except to the extent such damages have been awarded to a third party and are subject to allocation between or among the parties to the dispute.

(i) To the extent permitted by law, any right to appeal or challenge any arbitral decision or award, or to oppose enforcement of any such decision or award before a court or any governmental authority, is hereby waived by the Parties except with respect to the limited grounds for modification or non-enforcement provided by any applicable arbitration statute.

6.2   Arbitration – If Principally Related to Convertible Securities Issues

Any dispute between the Parties arising during the period of this Agreement or at any time thereafter which principally relates to the Convertible Securities shall be subject to arbitration

-23-

pursuant to Arbitration Act, 1991 (Ontario) and as provided in this Article and the decision of the arbitrational tribunal shall be final and binding as between the Parties and shall not be subject to appeal.  Such arbitration shall be subject to the following provisions, namely:

(a)        The party desiring arbitration shall nominate one arbitrator and shall notify the other party hereto of such nomination.  Such notice shall set forth a brief description of the matter submitted for arbitration and, if appropriate, the paragraph hereof pursuant to which such matter is so submitted.  Such other party shall, within 30 days after receiving such notice, nominate an arbitrator and the two arbitrators shall select a third person as an arbitrator and as chairman of the arbitral tribunal to act jointly with them.  If said arbitrators shall be unable to agree on the selection of such chairman, the chairman shall be appointed by a Judge of the Ontario Superior Court upon the application of any of the parties hereto.

(b)        The arbitration shall take place in Toronto, Ontario and the chairman shall fix the time and location in such city for the purpose of hearing such evidence and representations as either of the parties may present and, subject to the provisions hereof, the decisions of the arbitrators or of any two of them in writing shall be binding upon the parties both in respect of procedure and the conduct of the parties during the proceedings and the final determination of the issues therein.  Said arbitrators shall, after hearing any evidence and representations that the parties may submit, make their decision and reduce the same to writing and deliver one copy thereof to each of the parties hereto.  The majority of the arbitrators may determine any matters of procedure for the arbitration not specified herein.

(c)        If the party hereto receiving the notice of the nomination of an arbitrator by the party desiring arbitration fails within the said 30 days to nominate an arbitrator, then the arbitrator nominated by the party desiring arbitration may proceed alone to determine the dispute in such manner and at such time as he shall think fit and his decision shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be binding upon the parties.

(d)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitration may be carried out by a single arbitrator if the parties hereto so agree, in which event the provisions of this paragraph shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

(e)        The cost of the arbitration shall be borne equally by the Parties, unless the chairman and arbitrators decide otherwise in their final written decision.

(f)        Insofar as they do not conflict with the provisions of this Article, the Ontario Arbitration Act shall be applicable to arbitration held under this Article and the chairman and arbitrators shall have jurisdiction to do all acts and make such orders as provided therein.

(g)        Submission to arbitration pursuant to the provisions of this Article and the obtaining of the decision of the arbitration tribunal on the matters and claims in

-24-

dispute shall be a condition precedent to the bringing of any action at law or suit in equity with respect to this Agreement.

6.3   Arbitration—Mixed Issues

The Parties recognize that disputes may involve more than one issue, and consequently have provided that the correct arbitration venue and procedure will turn upon whether the disputed issues principally relate to Convertible Securities or to other matters.  An arbitrator or arbitral panel constituted under this Agreement shall always have power to determine whether the disputed issues principally relate to Convertible Securities or other matters, with the understanding that principal relationship will be determined based on numerosity and complexity of the issues that need to be resolved and the applicable governing law, rather than monetary value of the issues.  Under no circumstances will the Parties ever be involved in cotemporaneous arbitration proceedings in two different venues, unless all Parties to each putative proceeding agree.

7.5   Specific Performance and other Remedies

-25-

event of any such breach, the non-Breaching Party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants or commitments and provisional, interlocutory and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity, and each of the Parties hereto further hereby agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.

Subject to Section 7.7, no waiver of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the Party to be bound by the waiver or by its counsel.  Subject to Section 7.7, no waiver shall be inferred from or implied by any failure to act or delay in acting by a Party in respect of any default, breach or non-observance or by anything done or omitted to be done by the other Party.  The waiver by a Party of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of that Party’s rights under this Agreement in respect of any continuing or subsequent default, breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature).

7.10   Time

Time shall in all respects be of the essence hereof provided that the time for doing or completing any matter may be extended or abridged by an agreement in writing between Falcon and Sellers or their respective counsel.  Except as expressly set out in this Agreement, the computation of any period of time referred to in this Agreement shall exclude the first day and include the last day of such period.

7.11   Entire Agreement

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and, except as stated in the instruments and documents to be executed and delivered pursuant hereto, contains all of the representations, conditions, warranties and

agreements of the respective Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no verbal representations, undertakings or agreements of any kind between the Parties. This Agreement supersedes all prior negotiations or agreements between the Parties, whether written or verbal, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
