issue shares without the receipt of any consideration therefor to all or substantially all of the holders of the shares by way of stock dividend or other distribution (other than as dividends paid in the common course (“Dividends Paid in the Common Course”)), or
|
-- $0.25 Share Purchase Warrant Certificate --

- 7 -
|
(ii)
|
subdivide its outstanding shares into a greater number of shares; or
|
|
(iii)
|
consolidate its outstanding shares into a lesser number of shares,
|
(any of such events in these paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) being called a “Share Reorganization”), then the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share shall be adjusted as of the effective date or record date, as the case may be, at which the holders of shares are determined for the purpose of the Share Reorganization by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Share Reorganization and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares outstanding as of the effective date or record date after giving effect to such Share Reorganization.
|
(b)
|
Rights Offering. If prior to the Time of Expiry the Company shall fix a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of the holders of shares under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 calendar days after the record date for such issue (“Rights Period”), to subscribe for or purchase shares at a price per share to the holder of less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the Current Market Price for the shares on such record date (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction:
|
|
(i)
|
the numerator of which shall be the aggregate of:
|
|
A.
|
the number of shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and
|
|
B.
|
a number determined by dividing (1) the product of the number of shares issued or subscribed during the Rights Period upon the exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such shares are offered by (2) the Current Market Price of the shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and
|
|
(ii)
|
the denominator of which shall be the number of shares outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering and including the number of shares actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering.
|
|
Any Warrant Holder who shall have exercised his right to purchase shares in accordance with this Article 4 during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period therefor shall, in addition to the shares to which he is otherwise entitled upon such exercise in accordance with this Article 4, be entitled to that number of additional shares equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, resulting from the subtraction of the Warrant Exercise Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection (b) hereinabove from the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of such Rights Offering is multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Warrant Holder during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Warrant Exercise Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection 4.07(b); provided that the provisions of this Article 4 shall be applicable to any fractional interest in any share to which such Warrant Holder might otherwise be entitled under the foregoing provisions of this subsection 4.07(b). Such additional shares shall be deemed to have been issued to the Warrant Holder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional shares shall be delivered to such Warrant Holder within ten business days following the end of the Rights Period.

(c)
|
Special Distribution. If prior to the Time of Expiry the Company shall issue or distribute to all or to substantially all the holders of the shares:
|
|
(i)
|
securities of the Company including rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of any class or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or exchangeable into any such shares or property or assets and including evidences of its indebtedness; or
|
|
(ii)
|
any property or other assets;
|
and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course, a Share Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “Special Distribution”), the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date at which the holders of affected shares are determined for purposes of the Special Distribution to a price determined by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
(iii)
|
the numerator of which shall be:
|
|
A.
|
the product of the number of shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the shares on such record date; less
|
|
B.
|
the excess, if any, of (1) the fair market value on such record date, as determined by action by the Directors (whose determination shall be conclusive), to the holders of the shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution over (2) the fair market value of the consideration received therefor by the Company from the holders of the shares, as determined by action by the Directors (whose determination shall be conclusive); and
|
|
(iv)
|
the denominator of which shall be the number of shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price of the shares on such record date.
|
|
(d)
|
Capital Reorganization. If prior to the Time of Expiry there shall be a reclassification of shares at any time outstanding or a change of the shares into other shares or into other securities (other than a Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Company with or into any other Company or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation,

|
arrangement or merger which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding shares or a change of the shares into other securities), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another Company or other entity (any of such events being herein called a “Capital Reorganization”), any Warrant Holder who exercises his right to purchase Warrant Shares pursuant to Warrant(s) then held after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of Warrant Shares to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property which such holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Warrant Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Warrant Shares to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Warrant subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those contained in this Section 4.07; provided, however, that no such Capital Reorganization shall be carried into effect unless all necessary steps shall have been taken to so entitle the Warrant Holders. If determined appropriate by the Company, acting reasonably, appropriate adjustments shall be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Article 4 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Warrant Holders to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 4 shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant. Any such adjustments shall be made by and set forth in terms and conditions supplemental hereto approved by action by the Directors and by the Company, acting reasonably and shall for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be appropriate adjustments.
|
|
(e)
|
If prior to the Time of Expiry a Share Reorganization shall occur which results in an adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.07, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to each whole Warrant shall be adjusted contemporaneously with the adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares theretofore purchasable on the exercise thereof by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
|

(a)
|

|
|
(b)
|
No adjustment in the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share shall be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least one and one-half percent (1.5%) in the prevailing Warrant Exercise Price and no adjustment shall be made in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of a Warrant unless it would result in a change of at least one one-tenth of a Warrant Share (1/10); provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection 4.08(b) would otherwise have been required to be made, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

in respect of the issue from time to time as Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course of shares to holders of shares who exercise an option or election to receive substantially equivalent dividends in shares in lieu of receiving a cash dividend;
|
and any such issue shall be deemed not to be a Share Reorganization.
|
(e)
|
If a dispute shall at any time arise with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 4.07, such dispute shall be conclusively determined by the Company’s Auditors, or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action by the Directors and any such determination shall be binding upon the Company and the Warrant Holders; such auditors or accountants shall be provided access to all necessary records of the Company. In the event that any such determination is made, the Company shall deliver a certificate to the Warrant Holders describing such determination.

(f)
|
In case the Company after the date of issue of the Warrants shall take any action affecting the shares, other than action described in Section 4.07, which in the opinion of the Directors of the Company would materially affect the rights of Warrant Holders, the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share or the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, by action by the Directors, in their sole discretion as they may determine to be equitable in the circumstances, but subject in all cases to the prior approval, if required, of any recognized stock exchange or over-the-counter or bulletin board trading market which may have jurisdiction over the affairs of the Company, from time to time, together with all other applicable regulatory authorities. Failure of the taking of action by the Directors so as to provide for an adjustment on or prior to the effective date of any action by the Company affecting the shares shall be conclusive evidence that the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.

|
(g)
|
If the Company shall set a record date to determine the holders of the shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or any subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment in the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share or the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of any Warrant shall be required by reason of the setting of such record date.

|
As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require any adjustment in any of the subscription rights pursuant to any of the Warrants, including the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share and the number or class of Warrant Shares or other securities which are to be received upon the exercise thereof, the Company shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, be necessary in order that the Company have unissued and reserved in its authorized capital and may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all the shares or other securities which all the holders of such Warrants are entitled to receive on the full exercise thereof in accordance with the provisions thereof.

|
|
(b)
|
delivering to such Holder any distributions declared with respect to such additional Warrant Shares after such exercise date and before such event;

|
“The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the laws of any state, and have been issued pursuant to an exemption from registration pertaining to such securities and pursuant to a representation by the security holder named hereon that said securities have been acquired for purposes of investment and not for purposes of distribution. These securities may not be offered, sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of registration, or the availability of an exemption from such registration. The stock transfer agent has been ordered to effectuate transfers of this certificate only in accordance with the above instructions.”
(or)
“These securities have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or the laws of any state, and are being issued in reliance upon Regulation S promulgated under the Act.

The stock transfer agent has been ordered to effectuate transfers only in accordance with the above instructions.”
(and, if applicable)
“Unless permitted under applicable securities legislation, the holder of the securities represented hereby shall not trade the securities in Canada before the earlier of (i) the date that is four months and a day after the date the company first became a reporting issuer in any of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec and Saskatchewan, if the company is a sedar filer, and (ii) the date that is four months and a day after the later of (a) the distribution date, and (b) the date the company became a reporting issuer in the local jurisdiction of the subscriber of the securities that are the subject of the trade.”

|
(b)
|
The Holder and any transferee thereof acknowledges by acceptance hereof that if any Warrants are exercised during the Restricted Period the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise shall also be impressed with the Legend set forth above unless counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company delivers an unqualified opinion that such Legend need not be imposed.

|

At least 30-calendar days’ notice of any meeting will be given by the Company to the Warrant Holders. Such notice will state the time when and the place where the meeting is to be held and will state briefly the general nature of the business to be transacted, but it will not be necessary for any such notice to set out the terms of any resolution to be proposed or any of the provisions of this Article.
Section 6.03 - Chairman

Every question submitted to a meeting will be decided in the first place by a majority of the votes given on a show of hands.
