WHEREAS the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board") recognizes that the establishment and maintenance of a sound and vital management team is essential to the protection and enhancement of the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders;
AND WHEREAS the Board further recognizes that, as is the case with many corporations, the possibility of a Change in Control of the Corporation could arise and create a climate of uncertainty among the Corporation's Officers, and could result in the resignation or distraction of such Officers to the detriment of the Corporation and its shareholders;
AND WHEREAS, in order to induce the Executive to remain in the employ of the Corporation and to assure the Corporation of the Executive's continued and undivided attention and services, notwithstanding any events which might result in a Change in Control of the Corporation, this Agreement, which has been approved by the Board, records certain benefits extended to the Executive.
NOW THEREFORE, the Parties hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:
1. | Definitions |
The following terms shall have the meanings assigned to them below.
(a) | "Accrued Compensation" shall mean all amounts earned or accrued through the Termination Date but not paid as of the Termination Date including (i) base salary at the rate which is the greater of the rate in effect immediately prior to the Change |

(b) | "Cause" shall mean and be limited to: |
(i) | the wilful and continued failure by the Executive to substantially perform the Executive's duties with the Corporation after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Executive by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that the Executive has not substantially performed the Executive's duties, and the Executive fails to correct such failure to perform the Executive's duties within 30 days after such written demand is delivered to the Executive; provided, however, that if such failure is as a result of the Executive's Disability or Retirement or occurs after the happening of circumstances which would entitle the Executive to terminate for Good Reason, the same will not constitute the basis for "Cause"; or |
(iii) | the wilful engaging by the Executive in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Corporation, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes of this definition, any action by the Executive or any failure on the Executive's part to act, will be deemed "wilful" when done (or omitted to be done) by the Executive not in good faith and if the Executive had or ought to have had the reasonable belief that the Executive's action or omission would not be in the best interests of the Corporation. |
(iii) | any other act or omission that would amount to just cause at common law. |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive will not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause, unless and until there will have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by at least 75% of the votes cast by the entire membership of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive, together with the Executive's counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive was guilty of conduct set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.
(c) | "Change in Control" of the Corporation shall be deemed to have occurred if: |
(i) | any Person or any Persons acting jointly or in concert, as defined in Section 159 of the Securities Act (Alberta), as amended from time to time, (such Person or Persons, an “Acquirer”) becomes the beneficial owner of or acquires control or direction over, directly or indirectly, securities of the |

Corporation representing more than 20% of the combined voting power of the Corporation's then outstanding securities entitled to vote in the election of the directors of the Corporation (the "Voting Shares") unless the Acquirer is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding corporation of the Corporation (a “Holding Corporation”) (as “subsidiary” and “holding corporation” are defined in the Canada Business Corporations Act);
(ii) | an Acquirer becomes the beneficial owner of or acquires control or direction over, directly or indirectly, securities of a Holding Corporation representing more than 20% of the combined voting power of the Holding Corporation’s then outstanding securities entitled to vote in the election of the directors of the Holding Corporation (the "Holding Corporation’s Voting Shares"); |
(iii) | any transaction or series of transactions, whether by way of consolidation, amalgamation or merger of a Holding Corporation or the Corporation, with or into any other Person (other than an affiliate of the Holding Corporation or the Corporation with or into a Holding Corporation) but excluding any such transaction or series of transactions in which the Persons who were shareholders of the Holding Corporation or the Corporation immediately prior to the transaction or series of transactions, as applicable, hold 80% or more of the voting shares of the new entity created by the transaction or series of transactions; |
(iv) | all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation or a Holding Corporation are sold, assigned or transferred (including by operation of law), or otherwise disposed of to another Person unless such Person is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation or a Holding Corporation; |
(v) | if on any day during the term of this Agreement more than 50% of the directors of a Holding Corporation or the Corporation then in office (A) were not directors of the Holding Corporation or the Corporation, as applicable, on the same day in the immediately preceding calendar year and (B) were not proposed by the Board of Directors of the Holding Corporation or the Board, as applicable, existing prior to their appointment or election; or |
(vi) | the Board, by resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by the Board, determines that for purposes of this Agreement, a Change in Control has occurred. |
(d) | "Disability" shall mean a physical or mental impairment that is certified in writing by a physician as preventing the Executive from engaging in any employment for which the Executive is reasonably suited by virtue of the Executive’s education, training or experience and that can reasonably be expected to last for the remainder of the Executive’s lifetime. |
21551816.2
- 4 -
(e) | "Good Reason" shall mean: |
(i) | Inconsistent Duties. The assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent with the Executive’s status as an executive officer of the Corporation, or a material alteration in the nature or status of the Executive’s responsibilities or duties or reporting relationship from those in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control. |

All amounts payable hereunder with respect to such annual bonus plan will be determined based upon 100% of the Executive's award under such annual bonus plan, notwithstanding any discretion of the Management Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board and notwithstanding any amendments to such annual bonus plan occurring after the Change in Control.

8. | Most Favoured Benefits |

9. | Amendments; Waivers |
No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing.

The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta.
11. | Validity |
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
12. | Dispute Resolution |
(a) | Following the delivery of a Notice of Dispute by either party, at the election of the Executive such dispute may be settled and determined by mandatory arbitration. |
(b) | Where the Executive has elected to settle the dispute by way of arbitration, the provisions of this Section 12 shall be deemed to constitute an “arbitration agreement” within the meaning of the Arbitration Act, R.S.A. 2000, c.A.-43 as amended (the “Act”) and the provisions of the Act, except to the extent that a contrary intention is expressed herein, shall apply to any arbitration hereunder. The Executive may at any time give written notice to the Corporation of a desire to submit such dispute to arbitration. Within 10 business days after receipt of such notice, the parties shall appoint a single arbitrator, with appropriate experience to determine such dispute. If the parties fail to appoint an arbitrator either party may apply to a judge of the Court of Queen's Bench to appoint an arbitrator to determine such dispute. Notwithstanding the Act, the Executive may discontinue the submission to arbitration and revoke the appointment of an arbitrator at any time prior to the |
21551816.2
- 13 -
commencement of the hearing. The arbitrator so appointed shall have all the powers of a judge of the Court of Queen's Bench and shall forthwith proceed to arbitrate the dispute. The award of the arbitrator shall be delivered to the parties within 60 days of the conclusion of the arbitration hearing. The costs of the arbitration shall be paid as determined by the arbitrator. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered into any court having jurisdiction and thereupon execution or other legal process may issue thereon. The parties hereto and all persons claiming through or under them hereby attorn to the jurisdiction of the arbitrator and to the jurisdiction of any court in which the judgment may be entered.
(c) | Following the delivery of a Notice of Dispute the Corporation will provide compensation and benefits in accordance with Section 4(c) herein, other than long term incentive plan or pension plan participation or payment, in which the Executive was participating when the Notice of Termination giving rise to the dispute was given, until the dispute is finally resolved either by way of mutual written agreement of the parties, by binding arbitration award hereunder or by final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (which is not appealable, or the time for appeal therefrom has expired and no appeal has been perfected). In the event that the final resolution determines that the Executive is entitled to benefits pursuant to Section 4(c), all amounts paid by the Corporation hereunder to the Executive following the Termination Date, shall be considered to be payments under Section 4(c) and shall not be duplicated. In the event that the final determination of the dispute determines that the Executive is not entitled to any benefits under Section 4(c), the Executive agrees to return promptly to the Corporation all payments received following the Termination Date set out in the Notice of Termination, other than any benefits to which he is entitled pursuant to Section 4(a) or (b), as applicable. |
