Registration Statement Matters.
A.
The Corporation covenants and agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to, (i) as soon as practicable following the Closing Date and, in any event, within 30 days following the Closing Date prepare and file with the SEC the Registration Statement on Form S-l (or, if Form S-l is not then available to the Corporation, on such form of registration statement as is then available) to effect a registration covering the resale of the Registrable Securities in an amount at least equal to the aggregate of the Registrable Securities; (ii) settle any comments of the SEC as soon as possible thereafter; and (iii) file and have declared effective a final Registration Statement. The Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of common stock of the Corporation resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the Registrable Securities.

Subscription Agreement - IntelGenx Technologies Corp.
B.
Prior to the filing of the Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto) the Corporation will allow the Subscriber to review and comment on the Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto).
C.
All the information and statements to be contained in the Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto), will, at the respective dates of filing thereof, disclose all material facts relating to the Corporation and the Registrable Securities and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (provided that this representation is not intended to extend to information and statements included in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Corporation by or on behalf of the Subscriber specifically for use therein).
D.
Neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment or supplement thereto will contain a misrepresentation (provided that this representation is not intended to extend to information and statements included in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Corporation by or on behalf of the Subscriber specifically for use therein).
E.
The Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto), will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the securities laws of the United States.
F.
The Corporation recognizes that it is fundamental to the Subscriber that the resale of the Registrable Securities be registered in the United States under the Registration Statement so that the Registrable Securities will be tradable in the United States without the necessity of the holder thereof filing a prospectus or effecting the trade in a manner which falls within one of the various private placement exemptions or exemptions from registration under applicable securities legislation or subject to any statutory or regulatory hold periods or trade restrictions in the United States (provided such trade is not by an “affiliate” as defined in Rule 144). The Corporation acknowledges that it is for this reason that the Corporation has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Registration Statement is to be filed with the SEC within the time periods contemplated by this Agreement.
G.
The filing of the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) with the SEC shall constitute the representation and warranty of the Corporation to the Subscriber that, at the time of such delivery or filing, as the case may be:
1.
such documents contain disclosure of all material facts relating to the Corporation and the Common Shares and Registrable Securities, and no material facts have been omitted therefrom which are necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made;
Subscription Agreement - IntelGenx Technologies Corp.
2.
such documents contain no misrepresentations; and
3.

provided, however, that the foregoing representations and warranties will not apply with respect to information and statements contained in the Registration Statement or misrepresentations with respect thereto or omissions therefrom which relate solely to the Subscriber or information provided by the Subscriber.
H.
