Article IV ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF UNITS

4.1 Adjustment of Number of Units

  The acquisition rights in effect at any date attaching to the Subscription Receipts shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a) if and whenever at any time from the Closing Date until the Time of Expiry, the Company shall:

(i) subdivide, redivide or change its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares;

(ii) reduce, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares;

(iii) issue to all or substantially all of the holders of the Common Shares, by way of stock distribution, stock dividend or otherwise, Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares;

(any of the events described in , and being referred to as a “Share Reorganization”);

the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted immediately after the record date at which the holders of the Common Shares are determined for the purpose of such Share Reorganization by multiplying the Exchange Ratio in effect on the record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the Share Reorganization and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this subsection shall occur;

(b) if and whenever at any time from the Closing Date and prior to the Time of Expiry, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Company other than as described in subsection  or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Company with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity (any such event being called a “Capital Reorganization”), upon the deemed conversion of such right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Units such Subscription Receiptholder would otherwise be entitled to acquire, the number of Units or other securities or property of the Company or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such Capital Reorganization, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that such Subscription Receiptholder would have been entitled to receive on such Capital Reorganization, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Subscription Receiptholder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it. If determined appropriate by the Company or the Agent to give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this subsection  or as required pursuant to an extraordinary resolution of the Subscription Receiptholders, the Company, its successor, or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such Capital Reorganization, enter into an agreement which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Agreement with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Subscription Receiptholders to the end that the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which a Subscription Receiptholder is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter. Any agreement entered into between the Company, the Agent and the Subscription Receipt Agent pursuant to the provisions of this subsection  shall be a supplemental agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of hereof. Any agreement entered into between the Company, any successor to the Company or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity and the Subscription Receipt Agent shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section  and which shall apply to successive reclassification, reorganizations, amalgamations, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances;

- 14 -

	(c)	if and whenever at any time from the Closing Date and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Company shall issue rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of the Common Shares pursuant to which those holders are entitled to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Shares or Convertible Securities within a period of 45 days from the date of issue thereof at a price, or at a conversion price, of less than 95% of the Current Market Price at the record date for such distribution (any such issuance being herein called a “Rights Offering” and Common Shares that may be acquired in exercise of the Rights Offering or upon conversion of the Convertible Securities offered by the Rights Offering being herein called the “Offered Shares”), the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date at which holders of Common Shares are determined for the purposes of the Rights Offering to an Exchange Ratio that is the product of (1) the Exchange Ratio in effect on the record date and (2) a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date for the rights offering plus (ii) the number of Offered Shares offered pursuant to the Rights Offering or the maximum number of Offered Shares into which the Convertible Securities so offered pursuant to the Rights Offering may be converted, as the case may be; and (b) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date for the Rights Offering; and (ii) the number arrived at when (A) either the product of (1) the number of Offered Shares so offered and (2) the price at which those Common Shares are offered, or the product of (3) the conversion price thereof and (4) the maximum number of Offered Shares for or into which the Convertible Securities so offered pursuant to the Rights Offering may be converted, as the case may be, is divided by (B) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the record date.
		Any Offered Shares owned by or held for the account of the Company shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any computation; if all the rights, options or warrants are not so issued or if all rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Exchange Ratio shall be readjusted to the Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the record date and the Exchange Ratio shall be further adjusted based upon the number of Offered Shares (or Convertible Securities into Offered Shares) actually delivered upon the exercise of the rights, options or warrants, as the case may be, but subject to any other adjustment required hereunder by reason of any event arising after that record date;

- 15 -

	(d)	if and whenever at any time from the Closing Date and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Company shall issue or distribute to all or substantially all the holders of the Common Shares (i) shares of any class other than Common Shares, or (ii) rights, options or warrants other than rights, options or warrants convertible within 45 days from the date of issue thereof at a price, or at a conversion price, of at least 90% of the Current Market Price at the record date for such distribution, or (iii) evidences of indebtedness, or (iv) any other assets and that issuance or distribution does not constitute a Share Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of those events being herein called a “Special Distribution”), the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for purposes of the Special Distribution to an Exchange Ratio that is the product of (1) the Exchange Ratio in effect on the record date and (2) a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the product of (i) the sum of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date plus the number of Units which the Subscription Receiptholders would be entitled to receive upon conversion of all their outstanding Subscription Receipts if they were converted on the record date and (ii) the Current Market Price thereof on that date; and (b) the denominator of which shall be the product of (A) the sum of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date plus the number of Units which the Subscription Receiptholders would be entitled to receive upon conversion of all their outstanding Subscription Receipts if they were converted on the record date and (B) the Current Market Price thereof on that date, less, the aggregate fair market value, as determined by the directors, whose determination shall, subject to TSX acceptance (if applicable) and absent manifest error, be conclusive, of the shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets issued or distributed in the Special Distribution.
		Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Company shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. To the extent that the distribution of shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets if not so made or to the extent that any rights, options or warrants so distributed are not exercised, the Exchange Ratio shall be readjusted to the Exchange Ratio that would then be in effect based upon the shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed or based upon the number of Common Shares or convertible securities actually delivered upon the exercise of the rights, options or warrants, as the case may be, but subject to any other adjustment required hereunder by reason of any event arising after the record date;

(e) the adjustments provided for in this in the number of Units and classes of securities which are to be received on the conversion of Subscription Receipts are cumulative and shall apply to successive issues, subdivisions, combinations, consolidations, distributions and any other events that would require an adjustment of the Exchange Ratio or the kind securities issuable hereunder. After any adjustment pursuant to this Section, the term “Common Shares” where used in this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean securities of any class or classes which, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section, the Subscription Receiptholder is entitled to receive upon the conversion of its Subscription Receipt, and the number of Common Shares indicated by any conversion made pursuant to a Subscription Receipt shall be interpreted to mean the number of Common Shares or other property or securities a Subscription Receiptholder is entitled to receive, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section, upon the full conversion of a Subscription Receipt;

- 16 -

(f) if, and whenever at any time from the Closing Date and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Company shall reclassify or otherwise change the outstanding Common Shares, the conversion right shall be adjusted effective immediately upon the reclassification becoming effective so that holders of Subscription Receipts who convert their rights thereafter shall be entitled to receive Units (or Common Shares and Warrants comprising Units) as they would have received had the Subscription Receipts been converted immediately prior to the effective date, subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those contained in this .

  All shares of any class or other securities which a Subscription Receiptholder is at the time in question entitled to receive on the conversion of its Subscription Receipt, whether or not as a result of adjustments made pursuant to this , shall, for the purposes of the interpretation of this Agreement, be deemed to be securities which such Subscription Receiptholder is entitled to acquire pursuant to such Subscription Receipt.

4.3 No Adjustment

  Notwithstanding anything in this , no adjustment shall be made in the acquisition rights attached to the Subscription Receipts if the issue of Common Shares is being made pursuant to this Agreement and/or Private Placement or pursuant to any stock option or stock purchase plan in force from time to time for directors, officers or employees of the Company.

4.5 Proceedings Prior to any Action Requiring Adjustment

  As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment in any of the acquisition rights pursuant to any of the Subscription Receipts, including the number of Units which are to be received upon the conversion thereof, the Company shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company or a successor company has unissued and reserved in its authorized capital and may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all the shares which the holders of such Subscription Receipts issued by it are entitled to receive on the full conversion thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof.

4.6 Certificate of Adjustment

  The Company shall from time to time immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in this , deliver a certificate of the Company to the Subscription Receipt Agent, the Agent and the Subscription Receiptholders specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.

  If, and whenever at any time from the Closing Date and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Company shall take any action affecting or relating to the Common Shares, other than any action described in this , which in the opinion of the directors of the Company would prejudicially affect the rights of any holders of Subscription Receipts, the Exchange Ratio will be adjusted by the directors of the Company in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the directors of the Company, may in their sole discretion, subject to the approval of any stock exchange(s) on which the Common Shares are listed and posted for trading, reasonably determine to be equitable in the circumstances to such holders.

In the event of the Subscription Receipt Agent resigning or being removed as aforesaid or being dissolved, becoming bankrupt, going into liquidation or otherwise becoming incapable of acting hereunder, the Company and the Agent shall forthwith appoint a new trustee unless a new trustee has already been appointed by the Subscription Receiptholders; failing such appointment by the Agent and the Company, the retiring Subscription Receipt Agent or any Subscription Receiptholder may apply to a justice of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”) on such notice as such justice may direct, for the appointment of a new trustee; but any new trustee so appointed by the Agent and the Company or by the Court shall be subject to removal as aforesaid by the Subscription Receiptholders. Any new trustee appointed under any provision of this Section  shall be a corporation authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in the Designated Provinces and, if required by the Applicable Legislation for any other provinces, in such other provinces. On any such appointment the new trustee shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as Subscription Receipt Agent hereunder.

(b) Upon the appointment of a successor trustee, the Company shall promptly notify the Subscription Receiptholders thereof in the manner provided for in Section  hereof.

(c) Any corporation into or with which the Subscription Receipt Agent may be merged or consolidated or amalgamated, or any corporation resulting therefrom to which the Subscription Receipt Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the trust business of the Subscription Receipt Agent shall be the successor to the Subscription Receipt Agent hereunder without any further act on its part or any of the parties hereto, provided that such corporation would be eligible for appointment as a successor trustee under subsection .

(d) Any Subscription Receipt Certificates Certified but not delivered by a predecessor trustee may be Certified by the successor trustee in the name of the predecessor or successor trustee.

10.9 Conflict of Interest

(a) The Subscription Receipt Agent represents to the Agent and the Company that, to the best of its knowledge, at the time of execution and delivery hereof no material conflict of interest exists between its role as a trustee hereunder and its role in any other capacity and agrees that in the event of a material conflict of interest arising hereafter it will, within 30 days after ascertaining that it has such material conflict of interest, either eliminate the same or assign its trust hereunder to a successor trustee approved by the Agent and the Company and meeting the requirements set forth in subsection . Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection , if any such material conflict of interest exists or hereafter shall exist, the validity and enforceability of this Agreement and the Subscription Receipt Certificate shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason thereof.

(b) Subject to subsection , the Subscription Receipt Agent and its affiliates, in its personal or any other capacity, may buy, lend upon and deal in securities of the Company and generally may contract and enter into financial transactions with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company without being liable to account for any profit made thereby.

10.13 Not Bound to Act

  The Subscription Receipt Agent shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever, the Subscription Receipt Agent, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Subscription Receipt Agent, in its sole judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Agreement has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on 10 days written notice to the Company and the Agent, provided (i) that the Subscription Receipt Agent’s written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (ii) that if such circumstances are rectified to the Subscription Receipt Agent’s satisfaction within such 10 day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.

Inc. (the “Agent”), one unit (each, a “Unit”) consisting of one fully paid and non-assessable common share (a “Common Share”) of the Company as such shares were constituted on September 26, 2013 and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”), each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one common share (a “Warrant Share”) and exercisable for a period of 36 months with an expiry date of September 25, 2016 and an exercise price of $3.58, provided that in the event that the Company does not satisfy the Release Conditions and deliver the Release Certificate on or before the Release Deadline or if the Subscription Receipt Agreement is otherwise terminated in accordance with its terms, the Escrowed Funds will be delivered to the Agent on behalf of the Receiptholders and the Subscription Receipts represented hereby will be cancelled. The term “Business Day” shall mean a day which is not a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia.

The Subscription Receipts represented by this Subscription Receipt Certificate are issued under and pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement. Reference is made to the Subscription Receipt Agreement and any instruments supplemental thereto for a full description of the rights of the Holders of the Subscription Receipts and the terms and conditions upon which the Subscription Receipts are, or are to be, issued and held, with the same effect as if the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement and all instruments supplemental thereto were herein set forth. By acceptance hereof, the Holder assents to all provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Subscription Receipt Certificate and the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement will govern. Capitalized terms used in this certificate shall have the same meaning ascribed to such terms in the Subscription Receipt Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein.

In the event the Release Conditions are satisfied and the Release Certificate is delivered on or before the Release Deadline, all Subscription Receipts shall be deemed to be converted and surrendered without any further action by the Subscription Receiptholders and one Common Share and one-half of one Warrant shall be issued to the Subscription Receiptholders for each Subscription Receipt held. All certificates representing the Common Shares and Warrants issued upon the deemed conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall bear the legend set forth in Section 3.5 and Section 2.13(b) of the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

In the event the Subscription Receipt Agreement is terminated or if the Release Conditions are not satisfied on or before the Time of Expiry, the Escrowed Funds will be delivered to the Agent, on behalf of the Receiptholders, as contemplated by the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

Upon the issuance of the Units upon the deemed conversion of the Subscription Receipts, the Subscription Receipt Certificates will be deemed to have been surrendered and cancelled without further action on the part of the Subscription Receiptholder, the Subscription Receipt Agent or the Company. Unless otherwise directed by the Subscription Receiptholder, the Subscription Receipt Agent will deliver the certificates representing the Common Shares and the Warrants as provided by the Company, to the Agent on behalf of the Subscription Receiptholders in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

In the event of the deemed conversion of the Subscription Receipts represented by this Subscription Receipt Certificate, as described above and as detailed in the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the Subscription Receipt Certificate will be deemed to have been delivered and surrendered and the right of a Holder to acquire Common Shares and Warrants represented hereby will be deemed to have been converted and all such Common Shares and Warrants will be deemed to be issued at such time.

The Holder should refer to the Subscription Receipt Agreement which provides for the adjustments in these and certain other stated events.

The Holder of this Subscription Receipt Certificate may, at any time prior to the Time of Expiry, upon surrender hereof to the Subscription Receipt Agent at its principal office in Vancouver, British Columbia exchange this Subscription Receipt Certificate for other Subscription Receipt Certificates, bearing the same legends, entitling the Holder to acquire, in the aggregate, the same number of Common Shares and Warrants as may be acquired under this Subscription Receipt Certificate.

This certificate may not be transferred and any purported transfer shall be null and void ab initio.  

The holding of the Subscription Receipts evidenced by this Subscription Receipt Certificate shall not constitute the Holder hereof a shareholder of the Company or entitle the Holder to any right or interest in respect thereof except as expressly provided in the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

The Subscription Receipt Agreement provides that all Holders of Subscription Receipts shall be bound by any resolution passed at a meeting of the Holders held in accordance with the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement and resolutions signed by the Holders of a specified majority of the then outstanding Subscription Receipts.
