No Shares shall be issued unless they shall have first been offered to the Shareholders at such price and on such terms as such Shares are to be offered to others. If Shares are to be issued, they shall be offered to the Shareholders pro rata, in the proportion of that Shareholder’s holdings of Shares to the aggregate number of Shares then outstanding. A notice of any offer to issue Shares shall be sent to each Shareholder and shall contain the information required by Section 3.4. Each Shareholder shall send a notice to the Secretary of the Corporation of the acceptance by it of any or all of the Shares offered to it pursuant to the notice. If a Shareholder does not accept any or all of the Shares offered to it within the period prescribed in the notice, the other Shareholders (if they have accepted all of the Shares offered to them) shall be offered, pro rata, the Shares which have not been accepted. After all Shareholders have declined or been deemed to have accepted, the Corporation shall issue any Shares which have been accepted to the appropriate Shareholders in consideration for their issue price. The Corporation shall then have the next four (4) full calendar months within which it may issue those Shares not accepted as aforesaid to Persons other than Shareholders on terms no less favourable to the Corporation than those upon which such Shares were offered to the Shareholders. If the Corporation does not issue such Shares within those four (4) calendar months, the Shareholders shall again be entitled to exercise the foregoing pre-emptive rights. The provisions of this Section 3.3 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to securities that by their terms or by agreement are convertible into, exchangeable for, or carry the right to purchase Shares.

3.4 Notice. A notice required by Section 3.3 shall specify the total number of Shares then being offered for allotment and issue, the issue price for each Share and the number of Shares being offered to the Shareholder to whom the notice is addressed, and shall limit the time (to be not less than fifteen (15) Business Days from the date in which such notice is deemed to have been given) within which such offer, if not accepted, will be deemed to be declined.

(i)

the terms of the Drag-Along Offer that are applicable to the Shareholder are, on the whole, at least as favourable to the Shareholder as the terms applicable to the holders of two-thirds (66.67%) of the outstanding Voting Shares that accept or approve the offer pursuant to paragraph 8.8(a)(ii); and

(ii)

the maximum liability of the Shareholder pursuant to the terms of the transaction contemplated by the Drag-Along Offer does not exceed the value of the consideration received by the Shareholder under that transaction.

	(e)	Upon completion of the sale to the third-party offeror, the Shareholders will distribute the aggregate proceeds of the sale among the Shareholders in the same manner that assets of the Corporation would be distributed as provided in the Articles.

14.6 Payment of Purchase Price. Unless otherwise agreed in the Sale Transaction or otherwise provided for by this Agreement and Schedules hereto, the purchase price for the Purchased Shares shall be paid by the Purchaser in full by cash or bank draft at the time of closing.

14.7 Non-compliance with Conditions. If at the time of closing the Purchased Shares are not free and clear of all liens, charges, and encumbrances (“Liens”), the Purchaser may, without prejudice to any other rights which it may have, purchase the Purchased Shares subject to such Liens and, in that event, the Purchaser shall, at the time of closing assume all obligations and liabilities with respect to such Liens and make the payment of tax required under Article 116 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), as the case may be; and in each such case the purchase price payable by the Purchaser for the Purchased Shares shall be satisfied, in whole or in part, as the case may be, by such assumption or payment and the amount so assumed or paid shall be deducted from the purchase price payable at the time of closing.

14.8 Non-Completion by Vendor. If, at the time of closing, the Vendor fails to complete the Sale Transaction, the Purchaser shall have the right, if not in default under this Agreement, without prejudice to any other rights which the Purchaser may have, make payment of the purchase price payable to the Vendor at the time of closing by depositing such amount to the credit of the Vendor in any branch of the Corporation's bankers. Such deposit shall constitute valid and effective payment of such amount to the Vendor irrespective of any action the Vendor may have taken to transfer or grant of Lien on the Purchased Shares. If the purchase price has been so paid, then from and after the date of deposit, the Sale Transaction shall be deemed to have been fully completed and all right, title, benefit and interest, both at law and in equity and to the Purchased Shares shall conclusively be deemed to have been transferred to and become vested in the Purchaser and all right, title, benefit, and interest, both at law and in equity, in and to the Purchased Shares of the Vendor or of any transferee or assignee of the Vendor shall cease and determine. The Purchaser shall also have the right to execute and deliver, on behalf of and in the name of the Vendor, such deeds, transfers, share certificates, resignations, and other documents that may be necessary to complete the Sale Transaction and each Shareholder, to the extent it may be a Vendor irrevocably appoints any Shareholder who becomes a Purchaser in a Sale Transaction its attorney in that behalf in accordance with the Powers of Attorney Act (Ontario), with no restriction or limitation in that regard and declaring that this power of attorney may be exercised during any subsequent legal incapacity on its part.

14.9 No Joint Liability. For greater certainty, the parties acknowledge and agree that where a Sale Transaction involves more than one Purchaser, the Purchasers in such Sale Transaction are not jointly liable for the payment of the purchase price for the Purchased Shares and any indebtedness purchased, but are only liable for their proportionate share.

14.10 Consents. The parties acknowledge that the completion of any Sale Transaction shall be subject, in any event, to the receipt of all necessary governmental and regulatory consents and approvals to the transfer of Shares contemplated thereby.

14.11 Option or Mandatory Obligation to Continue. Should the Corporation not be in a position to purchase the Shares of a Shareholder at the time that any option contained in this Agreement is exercised by a Shareholder or his Legal Representative, then such right shall continue until the Corporation is in a position to so redeem the said shares.

Schedule C

Share Valuation

	(a)	For the purposes of this Agreement, “Fair Market Value” means the aggregate fair market value of the applicable Shares as agreed to in writing by the Shareholders or, failing agreement, as determined by a qualified, independent business valuator (the “Valuator”) appointed under Article (b) below. Fair Market Value per Share shall be deemed to be equal to the most recent determination of Fair Market Value per Share pursuant to this Schedule if such most recent determination of Fair Market Value took place within twelve (12) months of the date on which such determination is to be made, failing which, in accordance with Article (b) below.

	(b)	If the Shareholders fail to reach unanimous written agreement as to the Fair Market Value of a Shareholder’s Shares within thirty (30) days following written request given by any of them, then the Shareholders shall jointly appoint the Valuator and shall instruct the Valuator to determine the Fair Market Value of such Shares within sixty (60) days following his appointment. In making its determination as to the Fair Market Value of any Shares, the Valuator shall not take into account the fact that such Shares do not form part of a “control block”. The determination of the Valuator as to the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be final and binding upon the Shareholders. If the Shareholders fail to jointly appoint the Valuator on or before the fortieth (40^th) day following written request by any Shareholder for a determination of Fair Market Value of the Shares, then any of the Shareholders shall be entitled to apply, at the expense of the Corporation, to the Court for the Appointment of a single Valuator. The Valuator shall have access to the books, accounts, records, vouchers, cheques, papers and documents of, or which may relate to the Corporation. The Shareholders shall cooperate with the Valuator and shall provide all information and documents reasonably requested by the Valuator. All reasonable fees and disbursements charged by the Valuator shall be paid by the Corporation.
