Upon initial election to the Board, each Non-Executive Director shall receive an initial option grant to purchase 45,000 common shares of the Company.

Each Non-Executive Director who is elected or appointed as a director at least three calendar months prior to an Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) and whose service as a director will continue after such Annual Meeting shall receive an annual grant of an option to purchase common shares of the Company, with an aggregate value of $266,200, on the date of the Annual Meeting. Such aggregate dollar value is converted to a number of options utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the dollar volume-weighted average closing price of common shares of the Company for all of the trading days during the 30 trading day period ending on (and including) the last trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of the Annual Meeting (or such other methodology the Compensation Committee may determine prior to the grant of an award becoming effective). The annual option grant will be automatically granted, without further action, on the date of the applicable Annual Meeting
