Such representations and warranties shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Subscriber in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement.

The Corporation represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Subscriber as follows:

(a) Upon issue, the Flow-Through Shares will be "Flow-Through Shares" as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Tax Act and the Proposed Amendments and are not and will not be "prescribed shares" within the meaning of section 6202.1 of the regulations to the Tax Act. The Corporation does not have and will not have prior to the Termination Date a Prescribed Relationship with the Subscriber and if the Subscriber is a partnership, with a partner or limited partner of such partnership.

(b) The Corporation is a "principal-business corporation" as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Tax Act and will continue to be a "principal-business corporation" until such time as all of the Resource Expenses required to be renounced under this Subscription Agreement have been incurred and validly renounced pursuant to the Tax Act.

(c) The Corporation has no reason to believe that it will be unable to: (i) incur, on or after the Closing Date and on or before the Termination Date, or (ii) renounce to the Subscriber effective on or before December 31, 2009, Resource Expenses in an aggregate amount equal to the Subscription Price, and the Corporation has no reason to expect any reduction of such amount by virtue of subsection 66(12.73) of the Tax Act.

(d) The Corporation hereby agrees to incur Resource Expenses in an amount equal to the Subscription Price on or before the Termination Date in accordance with this Subscription Agreement and agrees to renounce to the Subscriber, on or before March 31, 2010 with an effective date no later than December 31, 2009, pursuant to subsections 66(12.6) and 66(12.66) of the Tax Act, Resource Expenses incurred or to be incurred on or before the Termination Date in an amount equal to the Subscription Price.

(e) The Corporation shall deliver to the Subscriber, on or before March 31, 2010, the relevant Prescribed Forms, fully completed and executed, renouncing to the Subscriber, Resource Expenses in an amount equal to the Subscription Price with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2009, such delivery constituting the authorization of the Corporation to the Subscriber to file such Prescribed Forms with the relevant taxation authorities.

(f) The Resource Expenses to be renounced by the Corporation to the Subscriber:

(i) will constitute CEE on the effective date of the renunciation;

(ii) will not include expenses that are "Canadian exploration and development overhead expenses" (as defined in the regulations to the Tax Act for purposes of paragraph 66(12.6)(b) of the Tax Act) of the Corporation, the amount of any assistance described in paragraph 66(12.6)(a) of the Tax Act, amounts which constitute specified expenses for seismic data described in paragraph 66(12.6)(b.1) of the Tax Act or any expenses for prepaid services or rent that do not qualify as outlays and expenses for the period as described in the definition of "expense" in subsection 66(15) of the Tax Act;

(iii) will not include any amount that has previously been renounced by the Corporation to the Subscriber or to any other Person;

If the Corporation receives, or becomes entitled to receive, any government assistance which is described in paragraph (a) of the definition of "excluded obligation" in subsection 6202.1(5) of the regulations made under the Tax Act and the receipt of or entitlement to receive such government assistance has or will have the effect of reducing the amount of CEE validly renounced to the Subscriber hereunder to less than the aggregate of the Subscription Price, the Corporation shall incur additional Resource Expenses on or before the time it renounces the Resource Expenses to the Subscriber pursuant to their Subscription Agreement in an amount sufficient to allow it to renounce to the Subscriber, the Subscription Price.

(j) The Corporation shall use the gross proceeds of the Offering for general exploration activities on the Corporation's properties and shall deliver to the Subscriber, on or before March 31, 2010, a list of the provinces, territories or other jurisdictions in Canada where the Corporation has incurred, or intends to incur, Resource Expenses together with the amount incurred in each such province, territory or other jurisdiction of Canada.

(l) The Corporation will keep proper books, records and accounts in respect of all Resource Expenses and all transactions and events affecting the Subscription Price, the Resource Expenses and the amounts renounced to the Subscriber hereunder, and upon reasonable notice, will, on a timely basis, make such books, records, accounts and any other relevant documents available for inspection and audit by or on behalf of the Subscriber.

(m) Neither the Corporation nor any corporation "associated" (as such term is defined in the Tax Act) with the Corporation is a party to any other agreement for the issuance of Flow-Through Shares for which the required expenditures have not been incurred.

(n) The Corporation has not and will not enter into transactions or take deductions which would otherwise reduce its cumulative CEE to an extent which would preclude a renunciation of Resource Expenses hereunder in an amount equal to the Subscription Price on or before December 31, 2009.

(o) The Corporation will file with the CRA, before March 31 of the year following a particular year, any return required to be filed under Part XII.6 of the Tax Act in respect of the particular year, and will pay any tax or other amount owing in respect of that return on a timely basis.

(p) If the Corporation amalgamates with any one or more companies, any shares issued to or held by the Subscriber as a replacement for the Flow-Through Shares as a result of such amalgamation will qualify, by virtue of subsection 87(4.4) of the Tax Act, as Flow-Through Shares and in particular will not be "prescribed shares" as defined in section 6202.1 of the regulations to the Tax Act.

5.2	Indemnification

In the event that the CRA (or any similar provincial tax authority) reduces the amount renounced by the Corporation to the Subscriber pursuant to subsection 66(12.73) of the Tax Act (or any corresponding provincial legislation), the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person as to, and pay in settlement thereof to the Indemnified Person an amount equal to the amount of any tax (within the meaning of paragraph (b) of the definition of "excluded obligation" in subsection 6202.1(5) of the regulations to the Tax Act or paragraph (c) of that definition pursuant to the Proposed Amendments) payable under the Tax Act (and under any corresponding provincial legislation) by the Indemnified Person as a consequence of such reduction provided that nothing in this paragraph shall derogate from any rights or remedies the Subscriber may have at common law with respect to liabilities other than those payable under the Tax Act and any corresponding provincial legislation. For certainty, the foregoing indemnity shall have no force or effect and the Subscriber shall not have any recourse or rights of action to the extent that such indemnity, recourse or rights of action would otherwise cause the Flow-Through Shares to be "prescribed shares" within the meaning of section 6202.1 of the regulations to the Tax Act.

To the extent that any Person entitled to be indemnified hereunder is not a party to this Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber shall obtain and hold the rights and benefits of this Subscription Agreement in trust for, and on behalf of, such Person and such Person shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this section notwithstanding that such Person is not a party to this Subscription Agreement.
