delivered by the Shareholder and constitutes a legal, valid
and binding agreement enforceable by the Purchaser against the
Shareholder in accordance with its terms subject, however, to
limitations with respect to enforcement imposed by law in
connection with bankruptcy or similar proceedings, the
equitable power of the courts to stay proceedings before them

beneficial owner of 1,865,239 Shares which are currently held
by the Shareholder; and (ii) upon the acceleration of the
vesting thereof, will be the sole beneficial owner of the
30,000 Shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options held

aggregate of 26,000 vested and unvested options to acquire
Shares at exercise prices of U.S. $9.35 per Share or higher.
Except as stated in this paragraph, the Shareholder does not
own or control, directly or indirectly any other Shares or
options, rights or other entitlements to acquire Shares. The
Shareholder has the exclusive right to dispose of the
-3-
Shareholder's Shares as provided in this Agreement and the
Shareholder is not a party to, bound or affected by or subject
to, any charter or by-law provision, statute, regulation,
judgment, order, decree or law of which a breach would occur
as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or
the consummation of any of the transactions provided for in
this Agreement.
(c) Good Title. The Shareholder's Shares to be acquired by the
Offeror directly or indirectly from the Shareholder pursuant
to the Offer will be acquired with good and marketable title,
free and clear of any and all mortgages, liens, charges,
restrictions, security interests, adverse claims, pledges,
encumbrances and demands or rights of others of any nature or
kind whatsoever.
(d) No Agreements. No person, firm or corporation has any
agreement or option, or any right or privilege (whether by
law, pre-emptive or contractual) capable of becoming an
agreement or option, for the purchase, requisition or transfer
from the Shareholder, or any registered holder of
Shareholder's Shares, of any of the Shareholder's Shares, or
any interest therein or right thereto, except pursuant to this
Agreement.
(e) Voting. Neither the Shareholder nor any registered holder of
the Shareholder's Shares has previously granted or agreed to
grant any ongoing proxy in respect of the Shareholder's Shares
or entered into any voting trust, vote pooling or other
agreement with respect to the right to vote, call meetings of
shareholders or give consents or approvals of any kind as to
the Shareholder's Shares.
(f) No Proceeding Pending. There is no claim, action, lawsuit,
arbitration, mediation or other proceeding pending or, to the
best of the knowledge, information and belief of the
Shareholder, threatened against the Shareholder, which relates
to this Agreement or otherwise materially impairs the ability
of the Shareholder to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby.

for the Shares pursuant to the Offer (the "Offer Price") was
arrived at through negotiation between the Shareholder and the
Purchaser and, at the time of such negotiations, the
Shareholder had full knowledge of and access to information
concerning the Company such that the underlying value of the
Company was a material factor considered by the Shareholder in
arriving at the Offer Price, and there were no non- financial
factors or other factors peculiar to the Shareholder which
were considered relevant by the Shareholder in assessing the
price offered by the Purchaser and in arriving at the Offer
Price.

(h) Company Public Disclosure Documents. To the best of the
knowledge of the Shareholder: (i) all forms, reports,
statements, schedules and documents required to be filed by
the Company with securities regulatory authority under
applicable securities laws (collectively, the "Reports") did
not, at the time filed, contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading; (ii) the Company has not filed any
confidential material change report with any securities
regulatory authority or stock exchange which at the date of
this Agreement remains confidential; and (iii) the Company has

knowledge of the Shareholder, all of the representations and
warranties of the Company set forth in the Offer Agreement are
true and correct.
