2. PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISE.
-----------------------
2.1 APPOINTMENT OF WARRANT AGENT. The principal office of the Warrant
Agent in the Cities of Vancouver, British Columbia and Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, have
been appointed the warrant agent to receive subscriptions for Common Shares and
payments from the Holder on exercise of this Warrant Certificate. This Warrant
Certificate, the duly completed and executed Subscription Form and a certified
or official bank check shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Warrant Agent
only upon personal delivery thereof or, if sent by post or other means of
transmission, upon receipt thereof by the Warrant Agent at the offices specified
above. If mail is used for delivery of a Warrant Certificate, for the protection
of the Holder, registered mail should be used and sufficient time should be
allowed to avoid the risk of late delivery.
2.2 DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC., ON EXERCISE. The Corporation
agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the owner of record of such shares
as of the close of business on the date on which the duly completed and executed
Subscription Form, this Warrant Certificate and payment for such shares shall
have been received by the Corporation in accordance herewith. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any
event within five (5) business days thereafter, the Warrant Agent upon the
Corporation instruction and at the Corporation's expense (including the payment
by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and
delivered to the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities
laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to
-4-
which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise. As to any fraction of a
share that the Holder of one or more Warrants, the rights under which are
exercised in the same transaction, would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon
such exercise, the Corporation shall pay to such Holder an amount in cash equal
to such fraction multiplied by the Fair Market Value of one share of Common
Stock on the date of exercise. Following a partial exercise of this Warrant
prior to the Expiration Date, the Warrant Agent shall cancel this Warrant
Certificate and, within five business days, execute and deliver to the Holder a
new Warrant Certificate of like tenor covering the remaining balance of the
shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant Certificate.
2.3 EXERCISE. Payment may be made by certified or official bank check
payable to the order of the Corporation equal to the applicable aggregate
Exercise Price, for the number of Common Shares specified in such Subscription
Form (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the
total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in accordance with
the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive
the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.
2.4 REPRESENTATION. The Holder of this Warrant has represented to the
Corporation that it is acquiring this Warrant for its own account and not with a
view toward, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution
of this Warrant or the underlying shares of Common Stock, except pursuant to
sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"SECURITIES ACT"). The Holder of this Warrant further represented that as of the
Issue Date, the Holder was an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in
Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act, and if a Canadian resident, is also an
"accredited investor" as that term is defined in National Instrument 45-106.
Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall, if requested by the
Corporation, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Corporation,
representations concerning the shares of Common Stock underlying this Warrant,
in substantially the form of the first sentence of this SECTION 2.4.
3. WARRANT INDENTURE.
------------------
This Warrant Certificate represents warrants of the Corporation issued
or issuable under the provisions of the Warrant Indenture, to which reference is
hereby made for particulars of the rights of the holders of the Warrant
Certificates, the Corporation and the Warrant Agent in respect thereof and the
terms and conditions upon which the Warrants represented hereby are issued and
held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Warrant Indenture were
herein set forth in full, to all of which the Holder by acceptance hereof
assents, it being expressly understood that the provisions of the Warrant
Indenture and this Warrant Certificate are for the sole benefit of the

4. EFFECT OF REORGANIZATION, ETC.; ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.
-------------------------------------------------------------
4.1 REORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC. If at any time or from
time to time, the Corporation (a) effects a reorganization, (b) consolidates
with or merges into any other person, or (c) transfers all or substantially all
of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement
contemplating the dissolution of the Corporation, then, in each such case, as a
condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate
provision shall be made by the Corporation whereby the Holder of this Warrant,
on the exercise hereof as provided in SECTION 1 at any time after the
consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective
date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such
consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property
(including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such
consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such
Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to
further adjustment thereafter as provided in SECTION 5.
4.2 DISSOLUTION. In the event of any dissolution of the Corporation
following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets,
the Corporation, concurrently with any distributions made to holders of its
Common Stock, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Holder the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable by the Holder of this Warrant pursuant to SECTION 4.1, or
if the Holder also instructs the Corporation, to a bank or trust company
specified by the Holder as trustee for the Holder (the "TRUSTEE").
4.3 CONTINUATION OF TERMS. Upon any reorganization, consolidation,
merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in
this SECTION 4, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the
terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of
dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be
binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the
case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Corporation, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in SECTION 5. If this
Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the
transactions described in this SECTION 4, then the Corporation's securities and
property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of this
Warrant will be delivered to the Holder or the Trustee as contemplated by
SECTION 4.2.
5. EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS REGARDING COMMON STOCK.
--------------------------------------------
If the Corporation (a) issues additional shares of the Common Stock as
a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock or any preferred
stock issued by the Corporation, (b) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common
Stock, or (c) combines its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Exercise
Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by
multiplying the then Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
-6-
event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall
thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The Exercise Price, as so
adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any
successive event or events described herein in this SECTION 5. The number of
shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the
exercise hereof as provided herein in SECTION 1, be entitled to receive shall be
adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common
Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this SECTION 5) be
issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the
Exercise Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this SECTION 5)
be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Exercise Price in effect on the
date of such exercise.
6. CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.
------------------------------
In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrant as provided
for in SECTION 4 OR 5 above, the Corporation at its expense will promptly cause
its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and
prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing
in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based,
including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the
Corporation for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares
of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding,
and (c) the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be
received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this
Warrant. The Corporation will forthwith mail or cause to be mailed a copy of
each such certificate to the Holder of this Warrant and any warrant agent of the
Corporation.
6.1 RESOLUTION OF QUESTIONS. If any question arises with respect
to the adjustments provided in SECTIONS 4, 5 OR 6 above, such
question shall be conclusively determined by the Corporation's
auditors or, if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such
firm of chartered accountants as is appointed by the
Corporation and is acceptable to the Warrant Agent. Such
accountants shall have access to all necessary records of the
Corporation and such determination shall be binding upon the
Corporation, the Warrant Agent and the Warrantholders.
6.2 ADDITIONAL ACTIONS. As a condition precedent to the taking of
any action which would require an adjustment in any of the
rights under the Warrant Indenture, the Corporation will take
any action which may, in the opinion of counsel to the
Corporation, be necessary in order that the Corporation, or
any successor to the Corporation or successor to the
undertaking or assets of the Corporation, will be obligated to
and may validly and legally issue all the Common Shares,
Warrants or other securities or property which the
Warrantholders would be entitled to receive thereafter on the
exercise thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof.
-7-
6.3 NOTICE TO WARRANT AGENT. With respect to the certificate
referred to in SECTION 6, at least ten (10) days before the
earlier of the effective date of or record date for any event
referred to in SECTION 4 OR 5 that requires or might require
an adjustment in any of the rights under the Warrant
Indentures, the Corporation will:
(i) file with the Warrant Agent a Certificate of the
Corporation specifying the particulars of such event
and, to the extent determinable, any adjustment
required and the computation of such adjustment; and
(ii) give notice to the Warrantholders of the particulars
of such event and, to the extent determinable, any
adjustment required.
Such notice need only set forth such particulars as have been determined at the
date such notice is given. If any adjustment for which such notice is given is
not then determinable, promptly after such adjustment is determinable the
Corporation will:
(iii) file with the Warrant Agent a Certificate of the
Corporation showing the computation of such
adjustment; and
(iv) give notice to the Warrantholders of such adjustment.
Where a notice pursuant to this SECTION 6 has been given, the Warrant Agent

Corporation or of the Corporation's auditors.

and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on
delivery of an indemnity agreement and surety bond reasonably satisfactory in
form and amount to the Warrant Agent and the Corporation, the Warrant Agent at
the Holder's expense and Holder's payment of charges of the Corporation and the
Warrant Agent, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like
tenor.
10. EXERCISE RESTRICTIONS.
----------------------
10.1 LIMITATION ON NUMBER OF SHARES ISSUABLE. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, the rights represented by this Warrant shall
not be exercisable by the Holder and the Corporation shall not give effect to
any such exercise, if and solely to the extent that after giving effect to such
exercise, the Holder, together with any person or company acting jointly or in
concert with the Holder with respect to the voting of voting securities of the
Corporation (the "JOINT ACTORS") would in the aggregate directly or indirectly
own or exercise control or direction over the voting of that number of voting
securities of the Corporation (not including shares subject to a warrant as to
which no notice of exercise and corresponding payment has been delivered) that
is 19.99% or greater of the total issued and outstanding voting securities of
the Corporation after giving effect to such exercise.
10.2 PROVISION OF OFFICER'S CERTIFICATE. Prior to exercising the rights
represented by this Warrant, the Holder shall provide the Corporation with an
officer's certificate stating the number of voting securities of the Corporation
held by the Holder and its Joint Actors, if any, as of the date provided for in
the exercise notice (the "OFFICER'S CERTIFICATE") and the Corporation shall be
entitled to rely on the Officer's Certificate in making any determinations
regarding the total issued and outstanding voting securities of the Corporation
to be held by the Holder and its Joint Actors, if any, after giving effect to
the exercise. The execution of the Subscription Form by the Holder will suffice
as the Holder's acknowledgement of compliance with such exercise limits as set
forth in this SECTION 10.
11. TRANSFER ON THE CORPORATION'S BOOKS.

Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Corporation, the
Corporation may treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof
for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

appearing on the register of Holders.
13. MISCELLANEOUS.
--------------
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this
Warrant, no Common Stock will be issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant
if the issuance of such securities may constitute a violation of the securities
laws of any applicable jurisdiction. This Warrant and any term hereof may be
-9-
changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing
signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge
or termination is sought. THIS WARRANT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN

Agent of any of its rights, powers, duties or responsibilities under the Warrant
Indenture shall be construed only in accordance with the laws of the Province of
British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. The
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its
reasonable attorney's fees and costs. If any provision of this Warrant is
invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such
provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict
therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of
law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this
Warrant. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and
shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of any other provision hereof.
