Ladies and Gentlemen:

Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation (“CFCC”) and Rodman & Renshaw a unit of H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (together with CFCC, the “Co-Lead Underwriters”), together with Haywood Securities Inc., Raymond James Ltd and Dundee Securities Ltd. (collectively with the Co-Lead Underwriters, the “Underwriters”), understand that, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, Energy Fuels Inc., a company continued under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the Underwriters an aggregate of 7,250,000 units (the “Firm Units”), each Firm Unit consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company (each a “Unit Share” and collectively, the “Unit Shares”) and one-half common share purchase warrant in the capital of the Company (each a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company (each a “Warrant Share” and collectively, the “Warrant Shares”) at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is 60 months following the First Closing Date (as defined in Section 2(3)) upon payment of the exercise price of US$2.45 per Warrant Share. The Warrants will be issued pursuant a warrant indenture to be dated the First Closing Date among the Company, CST Trust Company, as Canadian warrant agent, and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as U.S. warrant agent, providing for the creation and issuance of the Warrants (the “Warrant Indenture”). The Firm Units will immediately separate into Unit Shares and Warrants upon closing of the offering.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Amended and Restated Underwriting Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Underwriters severally and not jointly, in respect of their percentages set forth in Section 9 hereof, agree to purchase from the Company, and by its acceptance hereof, the Company agrees to sell to the Underwriters, all but not less than all of the Firm Units on the First Closing Date for a purchase price of US$1.80 (the “Offering Price”) per Firm Unit, being an aggregate purchase price of US$13,050,000.00 against delivery of such Units. This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety the underwriting agreement dated as of September 14, 2016 among the Underwriters and the Company.

In addition, the Company proposes to grant to the Underwriters, in respect of their percentages set forth in Section 9 hereof, an option (the “Over-Allotment Option”), exercisable in whole or in part at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the day that is the 30th day following the First Closing Date, to purchase up to an additional 1,087,500 Units (the “Additional Units” and collectively with the Firm Units, the “Units”) each comprised of one common share (the “Additional Unit Shares”) and one half of a Warrant (the “Additional Warrants”) representing up to 15% of the aggregate number of Firm Units, at the Offering Price and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein for the purposes of covering over-allotments and for market stabilization purposes. The additional common shares of the Company issuable upon the exercise of Additional Warrants are hereinafter referred to as the “Additional Warrant Shares”. The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised by the Underwriters in respect of: (i) Additional Units at the Offering Price; or (ii) Additional Unit Shares at a price of US$1.482 per Additional Unit Share; or (iii) Additional Warrants at a price of US$0.636 per Additional Warrant; or (iv) any combination of Additional Unit Shares and/or Additional Warrants so long as the aggregate number of Additional Unit Shares and Additional Warrants that may be issued under the Over-Allotment Option does not exceed 1,087,500 Additional Unit Shares and 543,750 Additional Warrants. The Units, including the Unit Shares, the Warrant Shares, the Additional Unit Shares, the Additional Warrant Shares, the Warrants, and the Additional Warrants shall have the attributes described in and contemplated by the Prospectuses which are referred to below.

The Underwriters understand that the Company intends to allocate US$1.482 of the Offering Price as consideration for the issue of each Unit Share (including any Additional Units Shares) and US$0.318 of the Offering Price as consideration for the issue of each one-half Warrant (including any Additional Warrants).

Any references to “Additional Units” herein shall be construed as references to Additional Unit Shares and/or Additional Warrants, as the context requires, based on whether or not the Over-Allotment Option is exercised and the allocation of Additional Unit Shares and/or Additional Warrants thereunder.

Section 2 Purchase, Sale, Payment and Delivery of the Units.

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the Underwriters concerning the purchase and sale of the Units as follows:

(1)     Public Offering of the Units. The Co-Lead Underwriters hereby advise the Company that the Underwriters intend to offer for sale to the public, on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Prospectus and each Prospectus, their respective portions of the Units as soon after this Agreement has been executed as the Co-Lead Underwriters, in their sole judgment, have determined is advisable and practicable.

(2)     Underwriters’ Commission. In consideration of this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to the Underwriters (a) at the First Closing Date, an underwriting fee equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Firm Units, and, if applicable (b) at the Option Closing Date (as defined in Section 2(4)), an underwriting fee equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of any Additional Units (the “Underwriters’ Commission”).

The Over-Allotment Option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part until the day that is the 30th day following the First Closing Date upon notice by the Co-Lead Underwriters to the Company, which notice may be given at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the day that is the 28th day from the First Closing Date (the “Notice of Exercise”). The Notice of Exercise shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Additional Units, Additional Unit Shares and/or Additional Warrants as to which the Underwriters are exercising the Over-Allotment Option, (ii) the names and denominations in which the Additional Units are to be registered through the facilities of DTC and/or CDS, or otherwise, as applicable, (iii) the names and denominations that any Additional Warrant certificates shall be registered in, (iv) the time, date and place at which payment and delivery are to be made in respect of the Additional Units (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than the First Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the First Closing Date, the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of the Firm Units and such Additional Units through the facilities of DTC or CDS). Any such time and date of delivery, if subsequent to the First Closing Date, is called an “Option Closing Date” and shall be determined by the Co-Lead Underwriters and shall not be earlier than two nor later than five full business days after the date of delivery of such Notice of Exercise. If any Additional Units are to be purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Additional Units (subject to such adjustment as the Co-Lead Underwriters may determine to eliminate fractional units) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Additional Units to be purchased as the number of Firm Units set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Section 9 hereof bears to the total number of Firm Units subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 9 hereof.

  (x)

No Violation or Default. Neither the Company nor any of the Material Subsidiaries is (i) in violation of its articles or by-laws or similar organizational documents; (ii) except as are disclosed in the Registration Statement or included or incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectuses, in violation or default, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a violation or default, in the due performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of the Material Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of the Material Subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of the Material Subsidiaries are subject; or (iii) except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or included or incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectuses, in violation of any Applicable Law, except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for any such violation or default that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. To the Company’s knowledge, no other party under any material agreements, contracts, arrangements or understandings (written or oral) to which it or any of the Material Subsidiaries is a party is in violation or default in any respect thereunder where such violation or default would have a Material Adverse Effect.

     
  (y)

Disclosures. The Company and each of the Material Subsidiaries (other than Material Subsidiaries acquired not more than 365 days prior to the Evaluation Date, as defined below) maintain systems of internal accounting controls applicable under GAAP in applicable periods, or sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective and the Company is not aware of any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or included or incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectuses, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company and each of the Material Subsidiaries is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, is being prepared or during the period in which financial statements will be filed with the SEC on Form 10-Q. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of December 31, 2015 (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date and the disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act) or, to the Company’s knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls, except that the Company has limited the scope of its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting for its quarter ended June 30, 2016 to exclude controls, policies and procedures of a business that the Company acquired not more than 365 days before the last day of the period covered by the interim filing.

  (a)

any information or statement contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectuses, any issuer free writing prospectus or any Supplementary Material related thereto, or in any certificate or other document of the Company or of any officer of the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries delivered hereunder or pursuant hereto which contains or is alleged to contain a misrepresentation;



- 50 -

  (b)

any omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the Prospectuses, any issuer free writing prospectus, any marketing materials or any Supplementary Material related thereto, or any certificate or other document of the Company or any officer of the Company or any of the Material Subsidiaries delivered hereunder or pursuant hereto any fact, whether material or not required to be stated therein or necessary to make any statement therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was made;

     
  (c)

any order made or any inquiry, investigation or proceedings commenced or threatened by any securities commission, stock exchange or other Governmental Authority based upon any actual or alleged untrue statement, omission or misrepresentation in the Prospectuses, the Registration Statement, any issuer free writing prospectus, any marketing materials or any Supplementary Material or based upon any actual or alleged failure to comply with Canadian Securities Laws or U.S. Securities Laws, preventing or restricting the trading in of the Firm Shares, Warrant Shares, Additional Unit Shares or Additional Warrant Shares or the distribution of the Units or any other securities of the Company;

     
  (d)

the non-compliance or alleged non-compliance by the Company with any requirement of Canadian Securities Laws or U.S. Securities laws in any of the Qualifying Jurisdictions or in the United States or any state therein in connection with the transactions herein contemplated including the Company’s non-compliance or alleged non-compliance with any statutory requirement to make any document available for inspection; or

     
  (e)

any breach of any representation or warranty of the Company contained herein or in any certificate or other document of the Company or of any officers of the Company or any of the Material Subsidiaries delivered hereunder or pursuant hereto or the failure of the Company to comply with any of its obligations hereunder,

provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Underwriters furnished to the Company by the Underwriters expressly for use in the Prospectus Supplements or Time of Sale Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement thereto, or any issuer free writing prospectus.

(2)     Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly (each referred to in this Section 10 as the “Underwriter Indemnifying Party”), agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors and each officer and director of the Company who signed the Registration Statement or the U.S. Prospectus, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each such person referred to in this Section 10 as the “Company Indemnified Party”) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 10(1), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Prospectus Supplements or Time of Sale Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Underwriters and furnished to the Company in writing by the Underwriters expressly for use therein. The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Underwriters have furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Prospectus Supplements or Time of Sale Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the seventh and fourteenth paragraphs under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Canadian Prospectus Supplement.


- 51 -

(3)     If any matter or thing contemplated by this Section 10 (any such matter or thing being hereinafter referred to as a “Claim”) is asserted against either the Underwriter Indemnified Party or the Company Indemnified Party (as the context requires, the “Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Company Indemnifying Party or the Underwriter Indemnifying Party (as the context requires, the “Indemnifying Party”), as soon as practicable, of such Claim to the extent allowable by Applicable Law (provided, however, that failure to provide such notice shall not affect the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder, except (and only) to the extent of material prejudice (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) to the Indemnifying Party therefrom) and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled (but not required) to assume the defence of any suit, action or proceeding brought to enforce such Claim; provided, however, that the defence shall be conducted through legal counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party and that no admission of liability or settlement of any such Claim may be made by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the other.

(4)     In any such Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain separate counsel to act on its behalf provided that the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless:

  (a)

the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defence of such Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party within five (5) business days of receiving notice thereof or, having assumed such defence, has failed to engage counsel promptly or who is acceptable to the Indemnified Parties, or has failed to pursue it diligently;

     
  (b)

the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of the other counsel; or

     
  (c)

the named parties to the Claim (including any added, third parties or interpleaded parties) include the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnifying Parties has been advised by counsel (including internal counsel) that there are legal defences available to such Indemnified Party that are different or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, that representation of the Indemnified Party by counsel for the Indemnifying Party is inappropriate as a result of the potential or actual conflicting interests of those represented, or where in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, the Claim gives rise to a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party;in each of cases Section 10(4)(a), Section 10(4)(b) and Section 10(4)(c), the Indemnifying Party will not have the right to assume the defence of the suit on behalf of such Indemnified Party, but the Indemnifying Party will be liable to pay the fees and expenses of separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties and, in addition, of local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no settlement may be made by an Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.



- 52 -

(5)     In order to provide for a just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity provided in Section 10(1) or Section 10(2) would otherwise be available in accordance with its terms but is, for any reason, held to be unavailable to or unenforceable by the Indemnified Party or enforceable otherwise than in accordance with its terms or is insufficient to hold the Indemnified Party harmless, the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the aggregate of all claims, expenses, costs and liabilities and all losses (other than loss of profits in connection with the distribution of the Units) of the nature contemplated in this Section 10 and suffered or incurred by the Indemnified Parties in such proportions as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the distribution of the Units as well as the relative fault of the parties in connection with the Claim or Claims which resulted in such claims, expenses, costs, damages, liabilities or losses, as well as any other equitable considerations determined by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that: (i) no Underwriter shall in any event be liable to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the aggregate fee or any portion thereof actually received by such Underwriter hereunder; and (ii) no party who has been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable to have engaged in any fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, wilful misconduct or gross negligence in connection with the Claim or Claims which resulted in such claims, expenses, costs, damages, liabilities or losses shall be entitled to claim contribution from any person who has not been so determined to have engaged in such fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation or gross negligence in connection with such Claim or Claims.

(6)     The rights of contribution and indemnity provided in this Section 10 shall be in addition to and not in derogation of any other right to contribution and indemnity which the Underwriters may have by statute or otherwise at law.

(7)     The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 10 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments as set forth opposite their respective names in Section 9 hereof.

(8)     In the event that any Company Indemnifying Party is held to be entitled to contribution from the Underwriters under the provisions of any Applicable Law, the Company Indemnifying Party shall be limited to contribution in an amount not exceeding the lesser of:

  (a)

the portion of the full amount of the loss or liability giving rise to such contribution for which the Underwriters are responsible, as determined above; and



- 53 -

  (b)

the amount of the aggregate fee actually received by the Underwriters from the Indemnifying Party hereunder, provided that no individual Underwriter shall be required to contribute more than the fee actually received by such Underwriter.

(9)     If the Underwriters have reason to believe that a claim for contribution may arise, they shall give the Indemnifying Party notice thereof in writing, but failure to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation which it may have to the Underwriters under this Section 10, except (and only) to the extent of material prejudice (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) to the Indemnifying Party therefrom.

(10)    With respect to this Section 10, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters are contracting on their own behalf and as agents for their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each person, if any, controlling any Underwriter or any of its subsidiaries and each shareholder of any Underwriter. Accordingly, the Company hereby constitutes the Underwriters as agents for each person who is entitled to the covenants of the Company contained in this Section 10 and is not a party hereto and the Underwriters agree to accept such agents and to hold in trust for and to enforce such covenants on behalf of such persons.

Section 11 Notification to the Underwriters.

The Company undertakes to notify the Co-Lead Underwriters immediately if it comes to its knowledge at any time up to the First Closing Date or the expiration of the Over-Allotment Option that any of the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement was not true or accurate or was misleading in any material respect when given or made or has ceased to be true or accurate in any material respect or has become misleading by reference to the facts or circumstances from time to time subsisting and of all other information of which it becomes aware which may give rise to an obligation to prepare and file Supplementary Material. If, at any time prior to the First Closing Date, the Co-Lead Underwriters shall receive notification pursuant to this section or they shall otherwise become aware that any of the representations and warranties in this Agreement is or has become or is likely to become untrue, inaccurate or misleading in any material respect, the Co-Lead Underwriters may (without prejudice to their right to terminate their obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 8) require the Company at its own expense to make or cause to be made such announcement as the Underwriters may reasonably determine.

Section 12 Representations, Warranties and Covenants to Survive Delivery.

The representations, warranties and covenants (including indemnities) of the Company and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement and in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the purchase and sale of the Units shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Units sold hereunder and shall continue in full force and effect unaffected by any subsequent disposition of the Units by the Underwriters or the termination of the Underwriters’ obligations and shall not be limited or prejudiced by any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters in connection with the preparation of the Prospectuses, any amendments or supplements related thereto or the distribution of the Units.


- 54 -

Section 13 No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Units pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the Offering Price of the Units and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, (b) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction, each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company or its shareholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (c) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favour of the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (d) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company, and (e) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

FORM OF LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

__________, 2016

To: Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation
  Rodman & Renshaw a unit of H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC
  (collectively, the “Co-Lead Underwriters”)
   
Re: Energy Fuels Inc. – Lock-up Agreement

The undersigned understands that this lock-up agreement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) is being delivered to you in connection with the Amended and Restated Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by Energy Fuels Inc. (the “Company”) and the Underwriters named in the Underwriting Agreement, with respect to the public offering (the “Offering”) of units of the Company (the “Units”), each Unit consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company (the “Common Shares”) and one-half common share purchase warrant of the Company (the “Warrants”), each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company.

In consideration of the benefit that the Offering will confer upon the undersigned as a [director and/or officer] of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, in respect of Common Shares owned directly or indirectly by the undersigned, or under control or direction of the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership (as such term is used in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (collectively, the “Locked-Up Securities”), during the period beginning from the date hereof and ending on the day that is ninety (90) days following the date of the closing of the Offering (the “LockUp Period”), the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of the Co-Lead Underwriters, which consent shall not unreasonably be delayed, conditioned or withheld, (i) issue, offer, sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of or transfer, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a “put equivalent position” or liquidate or decrease a “call equivalent position” within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”), with respect to, any Locked-Up Securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, (ii) except as permitted in Section 4(o) of the Underwriting Agreement cause to become effective a registration statement under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), or to file a prospectus in Canada, relating to the offer and sale of any Locked-Up Securities or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Locked-Up Securities or other rights to purchase Locked-Up Securities or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to the Locked-Up Securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, (iii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Locked-Up Securities or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to the Locked-Up Securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (iv) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii).


The foregoing paragraph shall not apply to (A) dispositions to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned and/or the spouse, any lineal descendent, father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned, provided that such trust agrees in writing with the Underwriters to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement, (B) tenders pursuant to a bona fide third party take-over bid made to all holders of Common Shares of the Company or similar acquisition transaction provided that in the event that the take-over bid or acquisition transaction is not completed, any Locked-Up Securities shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this Lock-Up Agreement, (C) any dispositions pursuant to any pre-existing 10b5-1 plans, (D) any dispositions required to pay the exercise price of any stock options issued or outstanding under the Company’s equity incentive compensation plans, or (E) any dispositions required for tax withholdings in connection with the exercise or vesting of any stock options or restricted stock units issued or outstanding under the Company’s equity incentive compensation plans.

In addition, the undersigned hereby waives any and all pre-emptive rights, participation rights, resale rights, rights of first refusal and similar rights that the undersigned may have in connection with the Offering or with any issuance or sale by the Company of any equity or other securities in connection with the Offering.

The undersigned hereby confirms that the undersigned has not, directly or indirectly, taken, and hereby covenants that the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, take, any action designed, or which has constituted or will constitute or might reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Common Shares.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this Lock-Up Agreement in proceeding toward the consummation of the Offering. The undersigned further understands that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s legal representatives, successors, and assigns, and shall enure to the benefit of the Company, the Underwriters and their legal representatives, successors and assigns.

The obligations of the undersigned pursuant to this Lock-Up Agreement may be waived in writing in whole or in part by Co-Lead Underwriters in their sole discretion.

This Lock-Up Agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein.


Yours very truly,
