(j) | Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 13.1(c)(vi), as promptly as possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such prospectus will 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, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. |
(k) | Use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities relating to the Registration Statement to continue to be listed on the OTC Bulletin Board or any other securities exchange, quotation system or market, if any, on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or traded. |

(m) | The Company may require the Subscriber to furnish to the Company information regarding itself and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as is required by law to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities of the Subscriber if it unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. |
(n) | If the Registration Statement refers to the Subscriber by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company, then the Subscriber shall have the right to require (if such reference to the Subscriber by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute then in force) the deletion of the reference to such Holder in any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement filed or prepared subsequent to the time that such reference ceases to be required. |
(o) | The Subscriber covenants and agrees that (i) it will not sell any Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until it has received copies of the prospectus as then amended or supplemented as contemplated in Section 13.1(g) and notice from the Company that such Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto have become effective as contemplated by Section 13.1(c) and (ii) it and its officers, directors or Affiliates, if any, will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to them in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. |
(p) | The Subscriber agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 13.1(c)(ii), 13.1(c)(iii), 13.1(c)(iv), 13.1(c)(v), 13.1(c)(vi) or 13.1(q), the Subscriber will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until the Subscriber's receipt of the copies of the supplemented prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement contemplated by Section 13.1(j), or until it is advised in writing (the "Advice") by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such prospectus or Registration Statement. |
-11-
(q) | If (i) there is material non-public information regarding the Company which the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") reasonably determines not to be in the Company's best interest to disclose and which the Company is not otherwise required to disclose, or (ii) there is a significant business opportunity (including, but not limited to, the acquisition or disposition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer or other similar transaction) available to the Company which the Board reasonably determines not to be in the Company's best interest to disclose, then the Company may (x) postpone or suspend filing of a registration statement for a period not to exceed 30 consecutive days or (y) postpone or suspend effectiveness of a registration statement for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive days; provided that the Company may not postpone or suspend effectiveness of a registration statement under this Section 13.1(q) for more than 45 days in the aggregate during any 360 day period; provided, however, that no such postponement or suspension shall be permitted for consecutive 20 day periods arising out of the same set of facts, circumstances or transactions. |

14. | Indemnification. |
14.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber, the officers, directors, agents, brokers (including brokers who offer and sell Registrable Securities as principal as a result of a pledge or any failure to perform under a margin call of Common Stock), investment and other advisors and employees of the Subscriber, each person who controls the Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, costs of preparation and attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, "Losses"), as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding the Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Subscriber expressly for use therein, and (ii) that the foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, allegedly untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the final prospectus (filed pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of the Subscriber or any underwriter, broker or other person acting on behalf of holders of the Registrable Securities, from whom the person asserting any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense purchased the Registrable Securities which are the subject thereof, if a copy of such final prospectus had been made available to such person and the Subscriber or such underwriter, broker or other person acting on behalf of the Subscriber and such final prospectus was not delivered to such person with or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Registrable Securities to such person. The Company shall notify the Subscriber promptly of the claim, threat or assertion of any proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
-12-
14.2 Indemnification by Subscriber. The Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents and employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject to appeal or review), as incurred, arising solely out of or based solely upon any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or arising solely out of or based solely upon any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by the Subscriber to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or such prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Subscriber shall be liable under this Section 14.2 for only that amount as does not exceed the lesser of (i) the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation and (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid by the Subscriber for the Securities pursuant to this Agreement.
14.3 Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 14.1 or 14.2 is unavailable to an indemnified party because of a failure or refusal of a governmental authority to enforce such indemnification in accordance with its terms (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the offering of the Registrable Securities. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault, as applicable, of the indemnifying party and indemnified party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any reasonable attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with (i) any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms or (ii) enforcing any rights under this Section 14. In no event shall the Subscriber be required to contribute an amount under this Section 14.3 in excess of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon sale of the Subscriber’s Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement giving rise to such contribution obligation.
-13-
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 14.3 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the indemnifying parties may have to the indemnified parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Subscriber shall be liable under this Section 14.3 for only that amount as does not exceed the net proceeds to the Subscriber as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.
15. | Rule 144. |
As long as the Subscriber owns any Registrable Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. As long as the Subscriber owns any Registrable Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to the Subscriber and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act annual and quarterly financial statements, together with a discussion and analysis of such financial statements in form and substance substantially similar to those that would otherwise be required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as well as any other information required thereby, in the time period that such filings would have been required to have been made under the Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as the Subscriber may reasonably request in writing, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Subscriber to sell the Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including providing any legal opinions relating to such sale pursuant to Rule 144.
16. | Governing Law |
16.1 This Subscription Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Nevada and the federal laws of the United States applicable therein.
17. | Survival |

19. | Severability |

4. | EXERCISE OF WARRANTS |
4.1 Method of Exercise of Warrants
The right to purchase shares conferred by the Warrants may be exercised by the Holder surrendering the Warrant Certificate representing same, with a duly completed and executed subscription in the form attached hereto and a bank draft or certified cheque payable to the Company for the purchase price applicable at the time of surrender in respect of the shares subscribed for in lawful money of the United States of America, to the Company at the address set forth in, or from time to time specified by the Company pursuant to, Section 3.2.
4.2 Effect of Exercise of Warrants
(a) | Upon surrender and payment as aforesaid the shares so subscribed for will be deemed to have been issued and such person or persons will be deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record of such shares on the date of such surrender and payment, and such shares will be issued at the subscription price in effect on the date of such surrender and payment. |
(b) | Within ten business days after surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Company will forthwith cause to be delivered to the person or persons in whose name or names the shares so subscribed for are to be issued as specified in such subscription or mailed to him or them at his or their respective addresses specified in such subscription, a certificate or certificates for the appropriate number of shares not exceeding those which the Warrant Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to the Warrant surrendered. |
4.3 Subscription for Less Than Entitlement
The Holder of any Warrant may subscribe for and purchase a number of shares less than the number which he is entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant. In the event of any purchase of a number of shares less than the number which can be purchased pursuant to a Warrant, the Holder thereof upon exercise thereof will in addition be entitled to receive a new Warrant in respect of the balance of the shares which he was entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant and which were not then purchased.
4.4 Warrants for Fractions of Shares
To the extent that the Holder of any Warrant is entitled to receive on the exercise or partial exercise thereof a fraction of a share, such right may be exercised in respect of such fraction only in combination with another Warrant or other Warrants which in the aggregate entitle the Holder to receive a whole number of such shares.
4.5 Expiration of Warrants
After the expiration of the period within which a Warrant is exercisable, all rights thereunder will wholly cease and terminate and such Warrant will be void and of no effect.
-3-
4.6 Time of Essence
Time will be of the essence hereof.
4.7 Subscription Price
Each Warrant is exercisable at a price per share (the “Exercise Price”) of Forty Cents (US$0.40). One (1) Warrant and the Exercise Price are required to subscribe for each share during the term of the Warrants.
4.8 Adjustment of Exercise Price
(a) | The Exercise Price and the number of shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event and in the manner following: |
(i) | If and whenever the shares at any time outstanding are subdivided into a greater or consolidated into a lesser number of shares the Exercise Price will be decreased or increased proportionately as the case may be; upon any such subdivision or consolidation the number of shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants will be increased or decreased proportionately as the case may be. |
(ii) | In case of any capital reorganization or of any reclassification of the capital of the Company or in the case of the consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into any other Company (hereinafter collectively referred to as a “Reorganization”), each Warrant will after such Reorganization confer the right to purchase the number of shares or other securities of the Company (or of the Company’s resulting from such Reorganization) which the Warrant Holder would have been entitled to upon Reorganization if the Warrant Holder had been a shareholder at the time of such Reorganization. |
In any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustments will be made in the application of the provisions of this Article Four relating to the rights and interest thereafter of the Holders of the Warrants so that the provisions of this Article Four will be made applicable as nearly as reasonably possible to any shares or other securities deliverable after the Reorganization on the exercise of the Warrants.
The subdivision or consolidation of shares at any time outstanding into a greater or lesser number of shares (whether with or without par value) will not be deemed to be a Reorganization for the purposes of this clause 4.8(a)(ii).
(b) | The adjustments provided for in this Section 4.8 are cumulative and will become effective immediately after the record date or, if no record date is fixed, the effective date of the event which results in such adjustments. |
4.9 Determination of Adjustments
If any questions will at any time arise with respect to the Exercise Price or any adjustment provided for in Section 4.8, such questions will be conclusively determined by the Company’s Auditors, or, if they decline to so act any other firm of certified public accountants in the United States of America that the Company may designate and who will have access to all appropriate records and such determination will be binding upon the Company and the Holders of the Warrants.
