Ladies and Gentlemen:

Oncolytics Biotech Inc., a company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the “Company”), confirms its agreement (this “Agreement”) with Canaccord Genuity Inc. (“Canaccord”), as follows:

1.           Issuance and Sale of Shares. The Company agrees that, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, it will issue and sell through Canaccord, acting as sales agent, common shares (the “Shares”) of the Company (the “Common Shares”) having an aggregate offering price of up to $20,000,000. The Shares will be sold on the terms set forth herein at such times and in such amounts as the Company and Canaccord shall agree from time to time. The issuance and sale of the Shares through Canaccord will be effected pursuant to the Registration Statement (as defined below) filed by the Company and declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).

2.           Placements.

(a) Placement Notice. Each time that the Company wishes to issue and sell Shares hereunder (each, a “Placement”), it will notify Canaccord by e-mail notice (or other method mutually agreed to in writing by the parties) containing the parameters within which it desires to sell the Shares, which shall at a minimum include the number of Shares (“Placement Shares”) to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of Shares that may be sold in any one day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made (a “Placement Notice”), a form of which shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Canaccord. The Placement Notice shall

originate from any of the individuals (each an “Authorized Representative”) from the Company set forth on Schedule 1 (with a copy to each of the other individuals from the Company listed on such schedule), and shall be addressed to each of the individuals from Canaccord set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto, as such Schedule 1 may be amended from time to time. The Placement Notice shall be effective upon confirmation by Canaccord unless and until (i) Canaccord declines to accept the terms contained therein for any reason, in its sole discretion, in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in Section 4, (ii) the entire amount of the Placement Shares have been sold, (iii) the Company suspends or terminates the Placement Notice in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in Section 4, (iv) the Company issues a subsequent Placement Notice with parameters superseding those on the earlier dated Placement Notice, or (v) the Agreement has been terminated under the provisions of Section 13.

(i) Placement Fee. The amount of compensation to be paid by the Company to Canaccord with respect to each Placement (in addition to any expense reimbursement pursuant to Section 8(i)(ii)) shall be equal to 3.0% of gross proceeds from each Placement.

(ii) No Obligation. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that neither the Company nor Canaccord will have any obligation whatsoever with respect to a Placement or any Placement Shares unless and until the Company delivers a Placement Notice to Canaccord, and then only upon the terms specified therein and herein. It is also expressly acknowledged that Canaccord will be under no obligation to purchase Shares on a principal basis. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Placement Notice, the terms of the Placement Notice control.

3.           Sale of Placement Shares by Canaccord. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the Company’s issuance of a Placement Notice, and unless the sale of the Placement Shares described therein has been declined, suspended, or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Canaccord will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell on behalf of the Company and as agent, such Placement Shares up to the amount specified during the time period specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. The Company acknowledges that Canaccord will conduct the sale of Placement Shares in compliance with applicable law, rules and regulations including, without limitation, all applicable United States state and federal securities laws, including, the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and all applicable Canadian Securities Laws (as defined below), and, if applicable, the rules of The NASDAQ Capital Market (the “NASDAQ”) and that such compliance may include a delay in commencement of sales efforts after receipt of a Placement Notice. Canaccord will provide written confirmation to the Company no later than the opening of the Trading Day immediately following the Trading Day on which they have made sales of Placement Shares hereunder setting forth the number of Placement Shares sold on such day, the compensation payable by the Company to Canaccord with respect to such sales, and the Net Proceeds (as

-2-

defined below) payable to the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Placement Notice, Canaccord may sell Placement Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering under Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including, without limitation, sales made directly on The NASDAQ (the “Principal Trading Market”), on any other existing trading market for the Common Shares solely in the United States (it being expressly acknowledged by both parties that no sales shall be made on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”)) or to or through a market maker in the United States.  In the event Canaccord sells Placement Shares in privately negotiated transactions in the United States, the aggregate number or dollar amount of Placement Shares issued in privately negotiated transactions shall in no case exceed 2% of the aggregate number or dollar amount of Placement Shares authorized for issuance pursuant to this Agreement.  During the term of this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Canaccord agrees that in no event will it or any of its affiliates engage in any market making, bidding, stabilization or other trading activity with regard to the Common Shares if such activity would be prohibited under Regulation M or other anti-manipulation rules under the Securities Act.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or a Placement Notice, the Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that Canaccord will be successful in selling any Placement Shares or as to the price at which any Placement Shares are sold, if at all, and (ii) Canaccord will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity if they do not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by Canaccord to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell on behalf of the Company and as agent such Placement Shares as provided under this Section 3. For the purposes hereof, “Trading Day” means any day on which the Principal Trading Market is open for trading.

4.           Suspension of Sales. The Company or Canaccord may, upon notice to the other party in writing, by telephone (confirmed immediately by verifiable facsimile transmission) or by e-mail notice (or other method mutually agreed to in writing by the parties), suspend any sale of Placement Shares; provided, however, that such suspension shall not affect or impair either party’s obligations with respect to any Placement Shares sold hereunder prior to the receipt of such notice. The Company and Canaccord agree that no such notice shall be effective against the other party unless it is made to one of the individuals named on Schedule 1 hereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time.

5.           Settlement.

(a) Settlement of Placement Shares. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement Shares will occur on the third (3rd) Business Day (or such earlier day as is agreed by the parties to be industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made (each a “Settlement Date”). The amount of proceeds to be delivered to the Company on a Settlement Date against the receipt of the Placement Shares sold (“Net Proceeds”) will be equal to the aggregate sales price at which such Placement Shares were sold, after deduction for (i) the commission or other compensation for such sales payable by the Company to Canaccord, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 2 hereof, as the case may be, (ii) any other amounts due and payable by the Company to Canaccord hereunder pursuant to Section 8(i)

hereof, and (iii) any transaction fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales.

(b) Delivery of Shares. On each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer the Placement Shares being sold by crediting Canaccord’s accounts or its designee’s account (provided that Canaccord shall have given the Company written notice of such designee at least one Trading Day prior to the Settlement Date) at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto and, upon receipt of such Placement Shares, which in all cases shall be freely tradeable, transferable, registered shares in good deliverable form, Canaccord will, on each Settlement Date, deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds delivered to an account designated by the Company prior to the Settlement Date. If the Company defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Shares on a Settlement Date, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 11 hereto, it will (i) hold Canaccord harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company and (ii) pay to Canaccord any commission, discount, or other compensation to which it would otherwise have been entitled absent such default.

The Company has concluded that it uses commercially reasonable efforts to review, from time to time, the progress and results of the studies, tests and preclinical and clinical trials and, based upon (x) the information provided to the Company by the third parties conducting such studies, tests, preclinical studies and clinical trials that are described in the Prospectuses and the Company’s review of such information, and (y) the Company’s actual knowledge, the Company reasonably believes that the descriptions of the results of such studies, tests, preclinical studies and clinical trials are accurate and complete in all material respects.

8.           Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees with Canaccord that:

(a) Registration Statement Amendments. After the date of this Agreement and during the period in which a prospectus relating to the Placement Shares is required to be delivered by Canaccord under the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 or Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act), (i) the Company will notify Canaccord promptly of the time when any subsequent amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed with the Commission and has become effective (each, a “Registration Statement Amendment Date”) or any subsequent supplement to the Prospectus has been filed and of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses or for additional information; (ii) the Company will file promptly all other material required to be filed by it with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d); (iii) it will prepare and file with the Commission, promptly upon Canaccord’s request, any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses that, in Canaccord’s reasonable opinion, may be necessary or advisable in connection with the distribution of the Placement Shares by Canaccord (provided, however that the failure of Canaccord to make such request shall not relieve the Company of any obligation or liability hereunder, or affect Canaccord’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement); (iv) the Company will submit to Canaccord a copy of any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses a reasonable period of time before the filing thereof and will afford Canaccord and Canaccord’s counsel a reasonable opportunity to comment on any such proposed filing prior to such proposed filing; and (v) it will furnish to Canaccord at the time of filing thereof a copy of any document that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses; and the Company will cause (i) each amendment or supplement to the U.S. Prospectuses to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to General Instruction II.L of Form F-10 of the Rules and Regulations or, in the case of any document to be incorporated therein by reference, to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the Exchange Act, within the time period prescribed and (ii) each amendment or supplement to the Canadian Prospectuses to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to Canadian Shelf Procedures or, in the case of any document to be incorporated therein by reference, to be filed with the Canadian Qualifying Authorities as required pursuant to the Canadian Securities Laws, within the time period prescribed.

(b) Notice of Stop Orders. The Company will advise Canaccord, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the issuance by the Commission or the Canadian Qualifying Authorities of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectuses or other prospectus in respect of the Shares, of any notice of objection of the Commission to the use of the form of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the Securities Act, of the suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or threatening of any

-26-

proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the Commission or the Canadian Qualifying Authorities for the amending or supplementing of the form of the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses or for additional information; and, in the event of the issuance of any such stop order or of any such order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectuses in respect of the Shares or suspending any such qualification, to promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order; and in the event of any such issuance of a notice of objection, promptly to take such reasonable steps as may be necessary to permit offers and sales of the Placement Shares by Canaccord, which may include, without limitation, amending the Registration Statement or filing a new registration statement, at the Company’s expense (references herein to the Registration Statement shall include any such amendment or new registration statement).

(c) Delivery of Prospectus; Subsequent Changes. Within the time during which a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered by Canaccord under the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 or Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) or the Canadian Securities Laws, the Company will comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act, by the Rules and Regulations and by the Canadian Securities Laws, as appropriate and as from time to time in force, and will file on or before their respective due dates all reports required to be filed by it with the Commission pursuant to Sections 14(a), 14(c), 16(d), if applicable, or any other provision of or under the Exchange Act or with the Canadian Qualifying Authorities pursuant to the Canadian Securities Laws, as appropriate. If during such period any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectuses as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses to comply with the Securities Act or the Canadian Securities Laws, the Company will immediately notify Canaccord to suspend the offering of Shares during such period and the Company will promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance.

(d) NASDAQ and TSX Filings. In connection with the offering and sale of the Placement Shares, the Company (i) will file with The NASDAQ Capital Market all documents and notices, and make all certifications, as may be required by The NASDAQ Capital Market and (ii) will file with the TSX all documents and notices, and make all certifications, as may be required by the TSX.

(e) Listing of Placement Shares. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Placement Shares to be listed on the Principal Trading Market and the TSX and to qualify the Placement Shares for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as Canaccord designates and to continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the

-27-

Placement Shares; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction.

(f) Delivery of Registration Statement and Prospectuses. The Company will furnish to Canaccord and its counsel (at the expense of the Company) copies of the Registration Statement, the Prospectuses (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) and all amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses that are filed with the Commission or Canadian Qualifying Authorities during the period in which a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the Securities Act (including all documents filed with the Commission during such period that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) or the Canadian Qualifying Authorities (including all documents filed with the Canadian Qualifying Authorities during such period that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein), in each case as soon as reasonably practicable and in such quantities as Canaccord may from time to time reasonably request and, at Canaccord’s request, will also furnish copies of the Prospectuses to each exchange or market on which sales of Placement Shares may be made.

(g) Company Information. The Company will furnish to Canaccord for a period of one (1) year from the date of this Agreement such information as is reasonably requested by Canaccord regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(h) Earnings Statement. The Company will make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 15 months after the end of the Company’s current fiscal quarter, an earnings statement covering a 12-month period that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Rules and Regulations.

(i) Expenses.

(i) The Company, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder, including but not limited to (i) the preparation, printing and filing of the Registration Statement and each amendment and supplement thereto, of each of the Prospectuses and of each amendment and supplement thereto and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as defined in Section 9 of this Agreement), (ii) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the Placement Shares, (iii) all fees and disbursements of the Company’s counsel, accountants and other advisors, (iv) the qualification of the Placement Shares under securities laws in accordance with the provisions of Section 8(e) of this Agreement, including filing fees in connection therewith, (v) the printing and delivery to Canaccord of copies of the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto, and of this Agreement, (vi) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing or qualification of the

-28-

Placement Shares for trading on the Exchange, and (vii) up to US$10,000 of filing fees and expenses related to the Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (including fees and disbursements of counsel to Canaccord incurred in connection therewith).

(ii) In addition to any fees that may be payable to Canaccord hereunder and regardless of whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company shall reimburse Canaccord for all of its reasonable expenses, up to a maximum reimbursement of US$50,000, arising out of this Agreement (including travel and related expenses, the costs of document preparation, production and distribution, third party research and database services and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to Canaccord) within ten (10) days of the presentation by Canaccord to the Company of a reasonably detailed statement therefor. In no event shall Canaccord be entitled to reimbursement of expenses hereunder to the extent it would cause Canaccord to receive total compensation in excess of eight percent (8.0%) of the total proceeds for the sale of Placement Shares hereunder.

(k) Other Sales. Without the prior written consent of Canaccord (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Company will not (A) directly or indirectly, offer to sell, sell, announce the intention to sell, contract to sell, pledge, lend, grant or sell any option, right or warrant to sell or any contract to purchase, purchase any contract or option to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of Common Shares (other than the Shares offered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, warrants or any rights to purchase or acquire, Common Shares or file any registration statement under the Act with respect to any of the foregoing (other than a registration statement on Form S-8), or (B) enter into any swap or other agreement or any transaction that transfers in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, any of the economic consequence of ownership of the Common Shares, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or repayable with Common Shares, whether any such swap or transaction described in clause (A) or (B) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, during the period beginning on the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately prior to the date on which any Placement Notice is delivered by the Company hereunder and ending on the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately following the final Settlement Date with respect to Placement Shares sold pursuant to such Placement Notice; and, except for offers to sell and sells conducted pursuant to those agreements set forth on Schedule 8(k), without the prior written consent of Canaccord (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Company will not directly or indirectly in any other “at the market” or continuous equity transaction offer to sell, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of

(m) Due Diligence Cooperation. The Company will cooperate with any due diligence review conducted by Canaccord or its agents, including, without limitation, providing information and making available documents and senior corporate officers, as Canaccord may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall be required to make available senior corporate officers only (i) by telephone or at the Company’s principal offices and (ii) during the Company’s ordinary business hours.

(n) Affirmation of Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Other Agreements. Upon commencement of the offering of the Placement Shares under this Agreement (and upon the recommencement of the offering of the Placement Shares under this Agreement following any termination of a suspension of sales hereunder), and at each Applicable Time, each Settlement Date, each Registration Statement Amendment Date (as defined below) and each Company Periodic Report Date (as defined below), the Company shall be deemed to have affirmed each representation, warranty, covenant and other agreement contained in this Agreement.

(o) Required Filings Relating to Placement of Placement Shares. In each quarterly reports, annual information form or annual financial statements / annual report on Form 40-F or 20-F filed by the Company in respect of any quarter in which sales

For so long as the Shares are listed on the TSX, within ten (10) calendar days after the end of each month during the term of this Agreement, the Company will, in addition to filing a Form 1 with the TSX, separately e-mail to the TSX a schedule indicating the aggregate number and price of Placement Shares sold on a daily basis during such month or as the TSX may otherwise direct, and will provide, upon the request of the TSX, additional monthly reports of daily sales of the Placement Shares, which schedules and reports shall be submitted to the TSX on a confidential, non-public basis.

(p) Representation Dates; Certificate. During the term of this Agreement, on the date of each Placement Notice given hereunder, promptly upon each request of Canaccord, and each time the Company (i) files the Prospectuses relating to the Placement Shares or amends or supplements the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses relating to the Placement Shares by means of a post-effective amendment, sticker, or supplement but not by means of incorporation of document(s) by reference to the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses relating to the Placement Shares; (ii) files an annual report on Form 40-F or 20-F under the Exchange Act; (iii) files a report on Form 6-K containing amended financial information (other than an earnings release, to “furnish” information pursuant to Form 6-K or to provide disclosure pursuant to Form 6-K relating to the reclassifications of certain properties as discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144) under the Exchange Act or (iv) files a Form 6-K under the Exchange Act for any other purpose (other than to “furnish” information pursuant to revised Form 6-K) (each date of filing of one or more of the documents referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) shall be a “Representation Date”); the Company shall furnish Canaccord (but in the case of clause (iv) above only if Canaccord reasonably determines that the information contained in such Form 6-K is material) with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company subsequently decides to sell Placement Shares following a Representation Date when the Company relied on such waiver and did not provide Canaccord with a certificate under this Section 8(p), then before the Company delivers the Placement Notice or Canaccord sells any Placement Shares, the Company shall

(v) Investment Company Act. The Company will conduct its affairs in such a manner so as to reasonably ensure that neither it nor the Subsidiaries will be or become, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement, an “investment company,” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act, assuming no change in the Commission’s current interpretation as to entities that are not considered an investment company.

(w) Securities Act and Exchange Act. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act as from time to time in force, so far as

If, to the knowledge of the Company, all filings required by General Instruction II.L of Form F-10 in connection with this offering shall not have been made or the representation in Section 7 shall not be true and correct on the applicable Settlement Date, the Company will offer to any person who has agreed to purchase Placement Shares from the Company as the result of an offer to purchase solicited by Canaccord the right to refuse to purchase and pay for such Placement Shares.

(cc) Actively Traded Security. The Company shall notify Canaccord at any time the Common Shares becomes an “actively traded security” exempted from the requirements of Rule 101 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act by subsection (c)(1) of such rule. Furthermore, the Company shall notify Canaccord immediately if the Common stock, having once qualified for such exemption, ceases to so qualify.

(a) Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses.

(i) The Company represents that it has not made, and covenants that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of Canaccord, it will not make any offer relating to the Shares that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) (an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) required to be filed by it with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433; except as set forth in a Placement Notice, no use of any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus has been consented to by Canaccord. The Company agrees that it will comply with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 of the Securities Act applicable to any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission or retention where required and legending.

(ii) The Company agrees that no Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, will include any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein that has not been superseded or modified, or the Prospectus. In addition, no Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided however, the foregoing shall not apply to any statements or omissions in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance on information furnished in writing to the Company by Canaccord expressly stating that such information is intended for use therein.

(iii) The Company agrees that if at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein that has not been superseded or modified, or the Prospectus or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Company will give prompt notice thereof to Canaccord and, if requested by Canaccord, will prepare and furnish without charge to Canaccord an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document which will correct such conflict, statement or omission; provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to any statements or omissions in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance on information furnished in writing to the

-35-

Company by Canaccord expressly stating that such information is intended for use therein.

(b) Non-Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. The Company consents to the use by Canaccord of a free writing prospectus that (a) is not an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus” as defined in Rule 433, and (b) contains only information describing the preliminary terms of the Shares or their offering, or information permitted under Rule 134 under the Securities Act; provided that Canaccord covenants with the Company not to take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission under Rule 433(d) a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of Canaccord that otherwise would not be required to be filed by the Company thereunder, but for the action of Canaccord.

(c) Distribution of Offering Materials. The Company has not distributed and will not distribute, during the term of this Agreement, any offering materials in connection with the offering and sale of the Placement Shares other than the Registration Statement, the Prospectuses or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus reviewed and consented to by Canaccord and included in a Placement Notice (as described in clause (a)(i) above).

10.           Conditions to Canaccord’s Obligations. The obligations of Canaccord hereunder with respect to a Placement will be subject to the continuing accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties made by the Company herein and in the applicable Placement Notices, to the due performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, to the completion by Canaccord of a due diligence review satisfactory to Canaccord in its reasonable judgment, and to the continuing satisfaction (or waiver by Canaccord in its sole discretion) of the following additional conditions:

None of the following events shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) receipt by the Company of any request for additional information from the Commission or any other federal or state or foreign or other governmental, administrative or self-regulatory authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the response to which might reasonably require any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses; (ii) the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state or foreign or other governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; (iv) the occurrence of any event that makes any

-36-

statement made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectuses or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement, related prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and in the case of each Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (v) the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate.

(e) Certificate. Canaccord shall have received the certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 8(p) on or before the date on which delivery of such certificate is required pursuant to Section 8(p).

(h) Approval for Listing; No Suspension. The Placement Shares shall have either been (i) approved for listing, subject to notice of issuance, on the Principal Trading Market, or (ii) the Company shall have filed an application for listing of the Placement Shares on the Principal Trading Market at or prior to the issuance of the Placement Notice. Trading in the Common Shares shall not have been suspended on such market.

(i) Other Materials. On each date on which the Company is required to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 8(p), the Company shall have furnished to Canaccord such appropriate further information, certificates, opinions and documents as Canaccord may reasonably request. All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents will be in compliance with the provisions hereof.

(k) No Termination Event. There shall not have occurred any event that would permit Canaccord to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a).

11.           Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Company Indemnification. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless Canaccord and each person, if any, who controls Canaccord against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which Canaccord or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Canadian Securities Laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon a misrepresentation as defined under Canadian Securities Laws or an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectuses, the Disclosure Package, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d), or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Prospectuses or the Disclosure Package, or in any application or other document executed by or on behalf of the Company or based on written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Placement Shares under the securities laws thereof or filed with the Commission or the Canadian Qualified Authorities, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the

-38-

Disclosure Package, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d), or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or the Disclosure Package or in any application or other document executed by or on behalf of the Company or based on written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Placement Shares under the securities laws thereof or filed with the Commission or the Canadian Qualified Authorities a material fact required to be stated in it or necessary to make the statements in it not misleading, and will reimburse Canaccord for any reasonable legal expenses of counsel for Canaccord and one set of local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for Canaccord, and for other expenses reasonably incurred by Canaccord in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectuses or the Disclosure Package, or any such amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by and through Canaccord expressly for use therein.

(b) Canaccord Indemnification. Canaccord will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Canadian Securities Laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon a misrepresentation as defined under Canadian Securities Laws or an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto), the Prospectuses (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Disclosure Package or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact, in the case of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and, in the case of the Prospectuses or any supplement thereto, the Disclosure Package or the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto), the Prospectuses (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Disclosure Package, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by and through Canaccord expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred.

(c) Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party

-39-

shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, promptly notify such indemnifying party in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and such indemnifying party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure to so notify such indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which such indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party or otherwise. (The indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or the indemnifying party shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to defend such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to such indemnifying party (in which case such indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by such indemnifying party and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that such indemnifying party shall not be liable to the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding). No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action or claim affected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 11 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and Canaccord on the other from the offering of the Placement Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice

-40-

required under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and Canaccord on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and Canaccord on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, bear to the total underwriting discounts, commissions and other fees received by Canaccord. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or Canaccord on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and Canaccord agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), Canaccord shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Placement Shares distributed to the public by it were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which Canaccord has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) Obligations. The obligations of the Company under this Section 11 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls Canaccord within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of Canaccord under this Section 11 shall be in addition to any liability which Canaccord may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

12.           Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations and warranties of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of Canaccord, any controlling persons, or the Company (or any of their respective officers, directors or controlling

-41-

persons), (ii) delivery and acceptance of the Placement Shares and payment therefor or (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

13.           Termination.

(a) Canaccord shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time by giving notice as hereinafter specified if (i) any Material Adverse Effect has occurred, or any development that is reasonably expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect has occurred or any other event has occurred which, in the sole judgment of Canaccord, may materially impair Canaccord’s ability to proceed with the offering to sell the Shares, (ii) the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable, at or prior to any Settlement Date, to perform any agreement on its part to be performed hereunder, (iii) any other condition of Canaccord’s obligations hereunder is not fulfilled, or (iv) any suspension or limitation of trading in the shares of Common Shares of the Company on the Principal Trading Market or the TSX shall have occurred. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 8(j) (Expenses), Section 11 (Indemnification), Section 12 (Survival of Representations), Section 13(f) (Termination), Section 18 (Applicable Law; Consent to Jurisdiction) and Section 19 (Waiver of Jury Trial) hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. If Canaccord elects to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 13(a), Canaccord shall provide the required notice as specified in Section 14 (Notices).

(b) The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time by giving ten (10) days’ notice as hereinafter specified. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 8(j), Section 11, Section 12, Section 13(f), Section 18 and Section 19 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

(c) In addition to, and without limiting Canaccord’s rights under Section 13(a), Canaccord shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement by giving ten (10) days’ notice as hereinafter specified. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 8(j), Section 11, Section 12, Section 13(f), Section 18 and Section 19 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

(d) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(b) or 13(c) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 8(j), Section 11, Section 12, Section 13(f), Section 18 and Section 19 shall remain in full force and effect.

(e) Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until

-42-

the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by Canaccord or the Company, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Placement Shares, such Placement Shares shall settle in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(f) In the event that the Company terminates this Agreement, as permitted under Section 13(b), the Company shall be under no continuing obligation, either pursuant to this Agreement or pursuant to the Engagement Letter dated September 30, 2014 between the Company and Canaccord, to utilize the services of Canaccord in connection with any sale of securities of the Company or to pay any compensation to Canaccord other than compensation with respect to sales of Placement Shares subscribed on or before the termination date and the Company shall be free to engage other placement agents and underwriters from and after the termination date with no continuing obligation to Canaccord.

14.           Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given by any party to any other party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and if sent to Canaccord, shall be delivered to:

Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection with any transaction contemplated hereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit,

-44-

action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

The parties also acknowledge that the provisions of this Agreement fairly allocate the risks of the transactions contemplated hereby among them in light of their respective knowledge of the Company and their respective abilities to investigate its affairs and business in order to assure that full and adequate disclosure has been made in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (and any amendments and supplements thereto). The Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against Canaccord for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees Canaccord shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including stockholders, employees or creditors of Company.

21.           Counterparts.

The Company notes that its current bid price per share is below the $1.00 minimum continued listing standard for the NASDAQ Capital Market.
