- 5 -

provided for should the Holder determine to exercise its rights in respect of all the Common Shares for the time being called for by such outstanding Compensation Warrants; and

(ii) all Common Shares which shall be issued upon the due exercise of the Compensation Warrants in accordance with the terms of this Compensation Warrant Certificate, the Company will cause the Common Shares subscribed for and purchased in the manner herein provided to be issued as fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares and the holders thereof shall not be liable to the Company or to its creditors in respect thereof.

(i) make all requisite filings under the Securities Act (Ontario) and the regulations made thereunder including those necessary to remain a reporting issuer not in default of any requirement of such act and regulations; and

(ii) preserve and maintain its corporate existence.

15. Adjustment to Exercise Price

(a) Adjustment: The rights of the Holder, including the number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Compensation Warrants, will be adjusted from time to time in the events and in the manner provided in, and in accordance with the provisions of, this Section. The purpose and intent of the adjustments provided for in this Section is to ensure that the rights and obligations of the Holder are neither diminished nor enhanced as a result of any of the events set forth in paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Section. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section shall be interpreted and applied in accordance with such purpose and intent. For the avoidance of doubt, if any adjustment is made to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of this Compensation Warrant Certificate, a corresponding adjustment shall be made to the Acceleration Trigger Price.

(b) The Exercise Price in effect at any date will be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(i) Share Reorganization: If and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Company shall:

(A) subdivide, redivide or change the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares;

(B) consolidate, combine or reduce the outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares; or

(C) fix a record date for the issue of, or issue, Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or other distribution other than a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course then, in each such event, the Exercise Price shall, on the record date for such event or, if no record date is fixed, the effective date of such event, be adjusted so that it will equal the rate determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such date before giving effect to such event, and of which

- 6 -

the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such date after giving effect to such event. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such event shall occur. Any such issue of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend shall be deemed to have been made on the record date for such stock dividend for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under paragraphs 15(b)(i) and 15(b)(ii) hereof.

(ii) Rights Offering: If and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Company shall fix a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares entitling the holders thereof, within a period expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issue, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price on such record date, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it will equal the rate determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares so offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered) by such Current Market Price, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the total number of additional Common Shares so offered for subscription or purchase (or into or for which the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered are convertible or exchangeable). Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, provided that if two or more such record dates referred to in this paragraph 15(b)(ii) are fixed within a period of 25 Business Days, such adjustment will be made successively as if each of such record dates occurred on the earliest of such record dates. To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Exercise Price shall then be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be.

(iii) Distribution: If and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares of:

(A) shares of any class other than Common Shares whether of the Company or any other corporation;

(B) rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares or property or other assets of the Company (other than a Rights Offering as described in paragraph 15(b)(ii) above);

(C) evidences of indebtedness; or

- 7 -

(D) cash (including any cash dividend), securities or other property or assets then, in each such case and if such distribution does not constitute a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, or fall under clauses (i) or (ii) above,

the Exercise Price will be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it will equal the rate determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price on the earlier of such record date and the date on which the Company announces its intention to make such distribution, less the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the directors, acting reasonably, at the time such distribution is authorized) of such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or cash, securities or other property or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Current Market Price. Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, provided that if two or more such record dates referred to in this paragraph 15(b)(iii) are fixed within a period of 25 Business Days, such adjustment will be made successively as if each of such record dates occurred on the earliest of such record dates. To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants so distributed are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Exercise Price shall then be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon such rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or cash, securities or other property or assets actually distributed or based upon the number or amount of securities or the property or assets actually issued or distributed upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be.

(c) Reclassifications: If and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is (i) any reclassification of, or redesignation of or amendment to the outstanding Common Shares, any change of the Common Shares into other shares or any other reorganization of the Company (other than as described in subsection 15(b) hereof), (ii) any consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger or other form of business combination of the Company with or into any other corporation resulting in any reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares, any change or exchange of the Common Shares into other shares or any other reorganization of the Company, or (iii) any sale, lease, exchange or transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or entity, then, in each such event, the Holder of this Compensation Warrant Certificate which is thereafter exercised shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the kind and number or amount of shares or other securities or property which such Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such event if, on the effective date thereof, such Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise. If necessary as a result of any such event, appropriate adjustments will be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this subsection with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of this Compensation Warrant Certificate to the end that the provisions set forth in this subsection will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Compensation Warrants. Any such adjustments may be made by and set forth in an instrument supplemental hereto approved by the board of directors of the Company, acting reasonably, and shall for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment.

- 8 -

(d) If at any time during the Adjustment Period any adjustment or readjustment in the Exercise Price shall occur pursuant to the provisions of subsection 15(b) or 15(c) of this Compensation Warrant Certificate, then the number of Common Shares purchasable upon the subsequent exercise of the Compensation Warrants shall be simultaneously adjusted or readjusted, as the case may be, by multiplying the number of Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Compensation Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment by a fraction which shall be the reciprocal of the fraction used in the adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price.

16. Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Exercise Price

(a) The adjustments provided for in Section 15 are cumulative and will, in the case of adjustments to the Exercise Price, be computed to the nearest whole cent and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs, subject to the following subsections of this Section 15.

(b) No adjustment in the Exercise Price is required to be made unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Exercise Price and no adjustment in the number of Common Shares is required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least one-hundredth of a Common Share; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection, would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustments.

(c) No adjustment in the Exercise Price will be made in respect of any event described in Section 15, other than the events referred to in Sections 15(b)(i)(A) and 15(b)(i)(B), if the Holder is entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Holder had exercised these Compensation Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event.

(d) No adjustment in the Exercise Price will be made under Section 15 in respect of the issue from time to time of Common Shares issuable from time to time as Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course to holders of Common Shares who exercise an option or election to receive substantially equivalent dividends in Common Shares in lieu of receiving a cash dividend, and any such issue will be deemed not to be a Share Reorganization (as described in 15(b)(i)).

(e) If at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 15, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the auditors of the Company 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 of the Company and any such determination, subject to regulatory approval and absent manifest error, where required, will be binding upon the Company and the Holder. The Company will provide such auditors or chartered accountants with access to all necessary records of the Company.

(f) In case the Company after the date of issuance of this Compensation Warrant Certificate takes any action affecting the Common Shares, other than action described in Section 15, which in the opinion of the board of directors of the Company, in their sole discretion, acting reasonably and in good faith, would materially affect the rights of the Holder, the Exercise Price will be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, as determined by the board of directors of the Company, but subject in all cases to the prior written consent of the Exchange, where required, and any necessary regulatory approval. Failure of the taking of action by the board of directors of the Company so as to provide for an adjustment pursuant to this Section 16(f) on or prior to the effective date of any action by the Company affecting the Common Shares will be conclusive evidence that the board of directors of the Company has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.

- 9 -

(g) If the Company sets a record date to determine the holders of the Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, decides not to implement its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other action, then no adjustment in the Exercise Price will be required by reason of the setting of such record date.

(h) In the absence of a resolution of the board of directors of the Company fixing a record date for any event which would require any adjustment pursuant to this Compensation Warrant Certificate, the Company will be deemed to have fixed as the record date therefor the date on which the event is effected.

(i) As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require any adjustment pursuant to this Compensation Warrant Certificate, including the Exercise Price, the Company must take any corporate action which may be reasonably 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 Common Shares or other securities which the Holder is entitled to receive on the full exercise thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(j) The Company will from time to time, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 15 (other than the subdivision or consolidation of the Common Shares), forthwith give notice to the Holder specifying the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the results thereof, including the resulting Exercise Price.

(k) The Company covenants to and in favour of the Holder that so long as this Compensation Warrant remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Holder of its intention to fix a record date for any event referred to in Sections 15(a) and (b) (other than the subdivision or consolidation of the Common Shares) which may give rise to an adjustment in the Exercise Price, and, in each case, such notice must specify the particulars of such event and the record date or the effective date for such event; provided that the Company is only required to specify in such notice such particulars of such event as have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given. Such notice shall be given not less than 14 days prior to each such applicable record date or effective date.

(l) In any case that an adjustment pursuant to Section 15 shall become effective immediately after a record date for or an effective date of an event referred to herein, the Company may defer, until the occurrence and consummation of such event, issuing to the Holder of this Compensation Warrant Certificate, if exercised after such record date or effective date and before the occurrence and consummation of such event, the additional Common Shares or other securities or property issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event; provided, however, that the Company will deliver to the Holder an appropriate instrument evidencing the Holder's right to receive such additional Common Shares or other securities or property upon the occurrence and consummation of such event and the right to receive any dividend or other distribution in respect of such additional Common Shares or other securities or property declared in favour of the holders of record of Common Shares or of such other securities or property on or after the date of exercise of the Compensation Warrants or such later date as the Holder would, but for the provisions of this subsection, have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares or of such other securities or property.

- 10 -

17. Consolidation and Amalgamation

(a) The Company shall not enter into any transaction whereby all or substantially all of its undertaking, property and assets would become the property of any other corporation (herein called a "successor corporation") whether by way of reorganization, reconstruction, consolidation, arrangement, amalgamation, merger, transfer, sale, disposition or otherwise, unless prior to or contemporaneously with the consummation of such transaction the Company and the successor corporation shall have executed such instruments and done such things as the Company, acting reasonably, considers necessary or advisable to establish that upon the consummation of such transaction:

(i) the successor corporation will have assumed all the covenants and obligations of the Company under this Compensation Warrant Certificate, and

(ii) the Compensation Warrants and the terms set forth in this Compensation Warrant Certificate will be a valid and binding obligation of the successor corporation entitling the Holder, as against the successor corporation, to all the rights of the Holder under this Compensation Warrant Certificate, mutatis mutandis.

(b) Whenever the conditions of Section 17(a) shall have been duly observed and performed the successor corporation shall possess, and from time to time may exercise, each and every right and power of the Company under this Compensation Warrant Certificate in the name of the Company or otherwise and any act or proceeding by any provision hereof required to be done or performed by any director or officer of the Company may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of the successor corporation.

18. Representation and Compensation Warranty

The Company hereby represents and warrants with and to the Holder that the Company is duly authorized and has the corporate and lawful power and authority to create and issue the Compensation Warrants evidenced hereby and the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise hereof and to perform its obligations hereunder and that this Compensation Warrant Certificate represents a valid, legal and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, provided that the enforcement thereof may be limited by laws affecting creditors' rights generally and that specific performance and other equitable remedies may only be granted in the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction.

19. If Share Transfer Books Closed

The Company shall not be required to deliver certificates or DRS Advice for Common Shares while the share transfer books of the Company are properly closed, prior to any meeting of shareholders or for the payment of dividends or for any other purpose and in the event of the exercise of any Compensation Warrants and the surrender of this Compensation Warrant Certificate in accordance with the provisions hereof and the making of any subscription and payment for the Common Shares called for thereby during any such period, delivery of certificates or DRS Advice for Common Shares may be postponed for a period of time not exceeding three (3) Business Days after the date of the re-opening of said share transfer books. Provided, however, that any such postponement of delivery of certificates or DRS Advice shall be without prejudice to the right of the Holder, if the Holder has surrendered the same and made payment during such period, to receive such certificates or DRS Advice for the Common Shares called for after the share transfer books have been re-opened.
