In the event that after four months and one day after the Closing Date, the closing price of the Common Shares on the Stock Exchange (or such other stock exchange on which the Corporation's shares are listed and where a majority of the trading volume occurs), for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days equals or exceeds Cdn$0.75 per Common Share, the Corporation may, within five (5) days after such an event, provide notice to the Warrant holders of early expiry of the Warrants held by each Warrant holder and thereafter, such Warrants will expire at 3:30 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date which is twenty-one (21) days after the date of the notice to the Warrant holders.

The Corporation and the undersigned further agree that Cdn$0.09 of the Purchase Price will be allocated to the Common Share comprising part of each Unit and that Cdn$0.01 of the Purchase Price will be allocated to the one-half of one Warrant comprising part of each Unit.
