The Corporation shall not be obliged by any provision of the Plan or the grant of any Award hereunder to issue or sell Shares in violation of such laws, rules and regulations or any condition of such approvals.

(b) No Award shall be granted, and no Shares shall be issued or sold hereunder, where such grant, issue or sale would require registration of the Plan or of Shares under the securities laws of any foreign jurisdiction (other than the United States), and any purported grant of any Award or purported issue or sale of Shares hereunder in violation of this provision shall be void.

(c) The Corporation shall have no obligation to issue any Shares pursuant to this Plan unless upon official notice of issuance such Shares shall have been duly listed with the Stock Exchange (and any other stock exchange on which the Shares are listed or posted for trading). Shares issued and sold to Participants pursuant to the exercise or vesting of Awards may be subject to limitations on sale or resale under applicable securities laws.

(d) If Shares cannot be issued to a Participant upon the exercise or vesting of an Award due to legal or regulatory restrictions, the obligation of the Corporation to issue such Shares shall terminate and any funds paid to the Corporation in connection with the exercise of an Option will be returned to the applicable Participant as soon as practicable.

Section 2.5 Effective Time and Termination

The amendment and restatement of the Plan shall be effective at the time (the “Effective Time”) it is approved by the shareholders of the Corporation. No Awards may be issued under the Plan from and after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Time, provided that Awards issued prior to such date shall remain in effect following such date in accordance with their terms.

Section 2.6 Tax Withholdings and Deductions

The Corporation shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold from any amount otherwise payable to a Participant, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient for the Corporation to be able to comply with the applicable provisions of any federal, provincial, state or local law relating to the withholding of tax or other required deductions (“Tax Obligations”) arising as a result of any Award. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the delivery of Shares with respect to any Award granted under this Plan is subject to the condition that if at any time the Corporation determines, in its discretion, that the satisfaction of the Tax Obligations is necessary or desirable in respect of such delivery, such delivery is not required unless provision for the Tax Obligation has been made to the satisfaction of the Corporation. In such circumstances, the Corporation may require that a Participant pay to the Corporation, in addition to the Exercise Price for the Shares (if applicable), such amount as the Corporation is obliged to remit to the relevant taxing authority in respect of the Award. Any such additional payment is due no later than the date as of which any amount with respect to the Award first becomes includable in the gross income of the Participant for tax purposes. To the extent permitted by the Board, a Participant may direct a portion of the Shares acquired to be sold by a broker to satisfy the Tax Obligations and the funds from such sale to be paid to the Corporation to be remitted to the relevant taxing authority.

Section 2.7 Non-Transferability

Except as set forth herein, Awards are not transferable. Options may be exercised only by:

(a) the Participant to whom the Options were granted;

(b) with the Board’s prior written approval and subject to such conditions as the Corporation may stipulate (which may include conditions with respect to compliance with applicable securities law), such Participant’s family or retirement savings trust or any registered retirement savings plans or registered retirement income funds of which the Participant is and remains the annuitant;

(c) upon the Participant’s death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate; or

(d) upon the Participant’s Incapacity, the legal representative having authority to deal with the property of the Participant;

provided that any such legal representative shall first deliver evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of entitlement to exercise any Option. A person exercising an Option may subscribe for Shares only in the person’s own name or in the person’s capacity as a legal representative.

Section 2.8 Participation in this Plan

(a) No Participant has any claim or right to be granted an Award (including, without limitation, an Award granted in substitution for any Award that has expired pursuant to the terms of this Plan), and the granting of any Award does not and is not to be construed as giving a Participant a right to continued employment or to remain a Consultant, director, officer or employee, as the case may be, of the Corporation or an Affiliate of the Corporation. Nothing contained in this Plan or in any Award granted under this Plan shall interfere in any way with the rights of the Corporation or an Affiliate of the Corporation in connection with the employment, retention or termination of any such person.

(b) No Participant has any rights or privileges as a shareholder of the Corporation in respect of Shares with respect to any Award until the allotment and issuance to the Participant of certificates representing such Shares or the entry of such Participant’s name on the share register of the Corporation as the holder of Shares and that person becomes the holder of record of those Shares. The Participant or the Participant’s legal representative shall not, by reason of the grant of any Award (other than an Award of Restricted Stock as set forth in Article 5), be considered to be a shareholder of the Corporation until shares have been issued in respect thereof.

(c) The Corporation makes no representation or warranty as to the future market value of the Shares or with respect to any income tax matters affecting the Participant resulting from the grant, vesting or delivery of an Award or transactions in the Shares. With respect to any fluctuations in the market price of Shares, neither the Corporation, nor any of its directors, officers, employees, shareholders or agents shall be liable for anything done or omitted to be done by such person or any other person with respect to the price, time, quantity or other conditions and circumstances of the issuance of Shares hereunder or in any other manner related to the Plan. For greater certainty, no amount will be paid to, or in respect of, a Participant under the Plan or pursuant to any other arrangement, and no additional Awards will be granted to such Participant to compensate for a downward fluctuation in the price of the Shares, nor will any other form of benefit be conferred upon, or in respect of, a Participant for such purpose. The Corporation does not assume responsibility for the income or other tax consequences resulting to the Participant and they are advised to consult with their own tax advisors.

Section 2.9 Notice

Each notice relating to an Award, including the exercise of an Option, must be in writing. All notices to the Corporation must be delivered personally, by prepaid registered mail or by email and must be addressed to the secretary of the Corporation. All notices to the Participant will be addressed to the principal address of the Participant on file with the Corporation. Either the Corporation or the Participant may designate a different address by written notice to the other. Such notices are deemed to be received: (i) if delivered personally, on the date of delivery; (ii) if sent by prepaid, registered mail, on the fifth Business Day following the date of mailing; or (iii) if sent by email, when the sender receives an email from the recipient acknowledging receipt, provided that an automatic “read receipt” does not constitute acknowledgment of an

email for purposes hereof. Any notice given by either the Participant or the Corporation is not binding on the recipient thereof until received.

Section 2.10 Right to Issue Other Shares

The Corporation shall not by virtue of this Plan be in any way restricted from declaring and paying stock dividends, issuing further Shares, repurchasing Shares or varying or amending its share capital or corporate structure.

Section 2.11 Quotation of Shares

So long as the Shares are listed on a Stock Exchange, the Corporation must apply to the Stock Exchange for the listing or quotation, as applicable, of the Shares issued upon the exercise or delivery of all Awards granted under the Plan, however, the Corporation cannot guarantee that such Shares will be listed or quoted on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange.

Section 2.12 No Fractional Shares

No fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise or delivery of any Award granted under the Plan and, accordingly, if a Participant would become entitled to a fractional Share upon the exercise or delivery of an Award, or from an adjustment permitted by the terms of this Plan, such Participant shall only have the right to purchase or receive the next lowest whole number of Shares, and no payment or other adjustment will be made with respect to the fractional interest so disregarded.

Section 2.13 Governing Law

The Plan shall be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

Section 3.1 Grant

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Board may grant Options to any Eligible Person upon the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein or such other terms, conditions and limitations as the Board may determine and set forth in the Grant Agreement; provided that no Option in respect of which Shareholder approval is required under the rules of the Stock Exchange is granted until the time that such grant has been approved by the Shareholders.

(b) An Option shall be evidenced by a Grant Agreement, signed on behalf of the Corporation.

(c) The grant of an Option to, or the exercise of an Option by, a Participant under the Plan shall neither entitle such Participant to receive nor preclude such Participant from receiving subsequently granted Options.

Section 3.2 Exercise Price

An Option may be exercised at a price that shall be fixed by the Board at the time that the Option is granted, but in no event shall it be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Date of Grant (the “Exercise Price”). The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2(e) hereof.

Section 3.3 Vesting

(a) All Options granted hereunder shall vest in accordance with the terms of the Grant Agreement entered into in respect of such Options. The Board has the right to accelerate the date upon which any Option becomes exercisable notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth for such Option, regardless of any adverse or potentially adverse tax consequences resulting from such acceleration.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise approved by the Board, the vesting of any Options granted hereunder shall be suspended and postponed during any period of Authorized Leave and, upon a Participant’s return from such Authorized Leave, the vesting of such Options shall be extended by a period equivalent to such period of Authorized Leave provided that any such extension will not extend the Expiry Date of the option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Participant’s return from an Authorized Leave that was a parental leave, the rate of vesting of such Participant’s Options shall be accelerated to twice the rate provided for in the Participant’s Grant Agreement until such time as the Participant holds vested Options in accordance with the original schedule of Vesting Dates provided for in the Participant’s Grant Agreement. For certainty, nothing contained herein shall limit the effect of Section 4.3 of the Plan upon the termination of any Participant’s employment or service as a Consultant, and the calculation of the number of Options vested as of a Participant’s Termination Date for purposes thereof shall take into account any suspension, postponement or adjustment of the vesting schedule applicable to such Options contemplated by this Section 3.3(b).

Section 4.1 Conditions of Exercise

(a) Vested Options may only be exercised during the Exercise Period by the Participant or upon the Participant’s death or Incapacity, his or her legal representative (provided that such legal representative shall first deliver evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of entitlement to exercise such vested Options). Subject to the restrictions set out in this Plan and to any alternative exercise procedure which may be established from time to time by the Board, Options to acquire Shares may be exercised by delivering to the Corporation an Exercise Notice,

together with a bank draft, certified cheque or other form of payment acceptable to the Corporation in an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Options and, if required by Section 2.6, the amount necessary to satisfy any source deductions or withholding taxes.

(b) Pursuant to the Exercise Notice, a Participant may choose to undertake a “cashless exercise” with the assistance of a broker in order to facilitate the exercise of such Participant’s Options. The “cashless exercise” procedure may include a sale of such number of Shares as is necessary to raise an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for all Options being exercised by that Participant under an Exercise Notice. The Participant shall also comply with Section 2.6 of this Plan with regards to any applicable withholding tax and shall comply with all such other procedures and policies as the Corporation may prescribe or determine to be necessary or advisable from time to time in connection with such “cashless exercise.”

(c) In addition, in lieu of exercising any vested Option in the manner described in this Article 4, and pursuant to the terms of this Article 4, a Participant may provide a properly endorsed notice of surrender to the Secretary of the Corporation, substantially in the form of Exhibit “C” to the Grant Agreement (a “Surrender Notice”) pursuant to which the Participant agrees to transfer, dispose and surrender an Option (“Surrender”) to the Corporation and elects to receive that number of Shares calculated using the following formula, after deduction of any income tax and other amounts required by law to be withheld pursuant to Section 2.6:

X = Y * (A-B) / A

Where:

X = the number of Shares to be issued to the Participant

Y = the number of Shares underlying the Options to be Surrendered

A = the Fair Market Value of the Shares as at the date of the Surrender

B = the Exercise Price of such Options

(d) Where Shares are to be issued to the Participant pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.1, as soon as practicable following the receipt of the Exercise Notice and, if Options are exercised only in accordance with the terms of Section 4.1(a), the required bank draft, certified cheque or other acceptable form of payment, the Corporation shall duly issue such Shares to the Participant as fully paid and non-assessable.

Section 4.2 Exercise Period

(a) The Exercise Period shall be determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion at the time the Option is granted and:

(i) each Option shall Expire not later than ten (10) years after the Date of Grant;

(ii) unless otherwise provided in the Participant’s Grant Agreement, the Exercise Period shall be automatically reduced or the Expiry Date postponed in accordance with this Article 4 upon the occurrence of any of the events referred to herein; and

(iii) unless otherwise provided in the Participant’s Grant Agreement, no Option in respect of which Shareholder approval is required under the rules of the Stock Exchange shall be exercisable until the time that such Option has been approved by the Shareholders.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if the Expiry Date of an Option falls on a date upon which such Participant is prohibited from exercising such Option due to a blackout period or other trading restriction imposed by the Corporation, then the Expiry Date of such Option shall be automatically extended to the tenth (10th) Business Day following the date the relevant black-out period or other trading restriction imposed by the Corporation is lifted, terminated or removed; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Expiry Date of an Option shall in no case extend beyond the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which it is granted.

Section 4.3 Termination Date

(a) Subject to Section 4.2, unless otherwise provided in the Participant’s Grant Agreement, employment agreement or consulting agreement:

his or her duties with the Corporation; and (ii) the Expiry Date. As of the Termination Date, all unvested Options of such Participant shall Expire;

(iii) if, at any time, a Participant ceases to be an employee of the Corporation or a subsidiary as a result of the Participant’s termination for cause, as determined by the Board, in its discretion, then, as of the Termination Date, the vested and unvested Options granted to such Participant shall Expire and be of no further force or effect whatsoever and such Participant shall no longer be eligible for a grant of Options;

(iv) if, at any time, a Participant ceases to be an employee of the Corporation or a subsidiary as a result of the Participant’s resignation, then any Options granted to such Participant and vested as of the Termination Date shall remain exercisable by such Participant until the earlier of: (i) 90 days following the Termination Date; and (ii) the Expiry Date.

As of the Termination Date, all unvested Options of such Participant shall Expire (for certainty, without regard to any period of reasonable notice that the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, may be required at law to provide to the Participant) and such Participant shall no longer be eligible for a grant of Options;

(vi) where, in the case of a Consultant, the Participant’s consulting agreement or arrangement terminates by reason of: (i) termination by the Corporation or an Affiliate for any reason whatsoever other than for material breach of the consulting agreement or arrangement (whether or not such termination is effected in compliance with any termination provisions contained in the Participant’s consulting agreement or arrangement); or (ii) voluntary termination by the Participant, then any Options held by the Participant that are exercisable at the Termination Date continue to be exercisable by the Participant until the earlier of: (A) the date that is ninety (90) days from the Termination Date; and (B) the Expiry Date. Any Options held by the Participant that are not exercisable at the Termination Date immediately expire and are cancelled on such date;

(ix) if, at any time, a Participant ceases to be a director, officer or member of an advisory board of the Corporation or a subsidiary (and is not or does not continue as an employee or consultant of the Corporation or a subsidiary) for a reason other than the death or Incapacity of the Participant, the Options granted to such Participant and vested as of the Termination Date may be exercised by such Participant until the earlier of: (i) ninety (90) days following the Termination Date; and (ii) the Expiry Date. As of the Termination Date, all unvested Options granted to such Participant shall cease and terminate and be of no further force or effect whatsoever;

(x) if, at any time, a Participant ceases to be a director, officer or member of an advisory board of the Corporation or a subsidiary (and is not or does not continue as an employee or consultant of the Corporation or a subsidiary) as a result of the Participant’s death or Incapacity, any Options granted to such Participant and vested as of the Termination Date shall remain exercisable by such Participant (or, in accordance with Section 2.7, the Participant’s legal representative) until the earlier of: (i) the date that is one year from the date of the death or Incapacity of the Participant; and (ii) the Expiry Date.

As of the Termination Date, all unvested Options of such Participant shall Expire and such Participant shall no longer be eligible for a grant of Options.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.3, the Board may extend the expiration date of vested and unvested Options of a Participant beyond the Expiry Dates set out above, provided that such extended dates are not later than the initial assigned maximum Expiry Date of any such Option.

(c) For purposes of the foregoing:

“Incapacity” means the permanent and total incapacity of a Participant as determined in accordance with procedures established by the Board for purposes of this Plan; and

“Termination Date” means:

(i) in the case of a Participant whose employment or term of office with the Corporation or a subsidiary terminates in the circumstances set out in Section 4.3, the date that is designated by the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, as the last day of the Participant’s employment or term of office with the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, provided that in the case of termination of employment by voluntary resignation by the Participant, such date shall not be earlier than the date notice of resignation was given, and, in the case of a termination by the Corporation without cause, “Termination Date” specifically does not mean the date on which any period of reasonable notice that the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, may be required at law to provide to the Participant, would expire; and

(ii) in the case of a Participant who is a Consultant and whose consulting agreement or arrangement with the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, terminates in the circumstances set out in Section 4.3, the date that is designated by the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, as the date on which the Participant’s consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated, provided that in the case of voluntary termination by the Participant, such date shall not be earlier than the date notice of voluntary termination was received by the Corporation, and, in the case of a termination by the Corporation without cause, “Termination Date” specifically does not mean the date on which any period of notice of termination that the Corporation or a subsidiary, as the case may be, may be required to provide to the Participant under the terms of the consulting agreement or arrangement, would expire.

Section 4.4 Change of Control

(a) Notwithstanding anything else in this Plan or any Grant Agreement, the Board has the right to provide for the conversion or exchange of any outstanding Awards into or for options, rights or other securities in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change of Control, cash or other property.

(b) Upon the Corporation entering into an agreement relating to a transaction which, if completed, would result in a Change of Control, or otherwise becoming aware of a pending Change of Control, the Corporation shall give written notice of the proposed Change of Control to the Award holders, together with a description of the effect of such Change of Control on outstanding Awards, not less than seven (7) days prior to the closing of the transaction resulting in the Change of Control.

(c) The Board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting and/or the Expiry Date of any or all outstanding Awards to provide that, notwithstanding the vesting provisions of such Awards or any Grant Agreement, such designated outstanding Awards shall be fully vested and conditionally exercisable (in the case of Options) upon (or prior to) the

completion of the Change of Control provided that the Board shall not, in any case, authorize the exercise of Options pursuant to this Section 4.4(c) beyond the Expiry Date of the Options. If the Board elects to accelerate the vesting and/or the Expiry Date of the Options, then if any of such Options are not exercised within seven (7) days after the applicable holders are given the notice contemplated in Section 4.4(b) (or such later Expiry Date as the Board may prescribe), such unexercised Options shall, unless the Board otherwise determines, terminate and Expire following the completion of the proposed Change of Control. If, for any reason, the Change of Control does not occur within the contemplated time period, the acceleration of the vesting and the Expiry Date of the Awards shall be retracted and vesting shall instead revert to the manner provided in the Grant Agreement.

(d) To the extent that the Change of Control would also result in a capital reorganization, arrangement, amalgamation or reclassification of the share capital of the Corporation (and the Board does not accelerate the vesting and/or the Expiry Date of Awards pursuant to Section 4.4(c)), the Corporation shall make adequate provisions to ensure that, upon completion of the proposed Change of Control, the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards and, if applicable, the Exercise Price per share of Options shall be appropriately adjusted (including by substituting the Awards for awards with respect to securities in any successor entity to the Corporation) in such manner as the Board considers equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to Award holders. The Board may make changes to the terms of the Awards or the Plan to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with any rules, regulations or policies of any stock exchange on which any securities of the Corporation may be listed, provided that the value of previously granted Awards and the rights of Award holders are not materially adversely affected by any such changes.

(e) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, in the event of a potential Change of Control, the Board shall have the power, in its sole discretion, to modify the terms of this Plan and/or the Awards (including, for greater certainty, to cause the vesting of all unvested Awards) to assist the Participants to tender into a take-over bid or other transaction leading to a Change of Control. For greater certainty, in the event of a take-over bid or other transaction leading to a Change of Control, the Board shall have the power, in its sole discretion, to permit Participants to conditionally exercise their Options, such conditional exercise to be conditional upon the take-up by such offeror of the Shares or other securities tendered to such take-over bid in accordance with the terms of such take-over bid (or the effectiveness of such other transaction leading to a Change of Control). If, however, the potential Change of Control referred to in this Section 4.4(e) is not completed within the time specified therein (as the same may be extended), then notwithstanding this Section 4.4(e) or the definition of “Change of Control”: (i) any conditional exercise of vested Options shall be deemed to be null, void and of no effect, and such conditionally exercised Options shall for all purposes be deemed not to have been exercised; (ii) Shares which were issued pursuant to exercise of Options which vested pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be returned by the Participant to the Corporation and reinstated as authorized but unissued Shares; and (iii) the original terms applicable to Options which vested pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be reinstated.

Section 5.1 General

In addition to Awards of Options hereunder, the Board may grant the types of Awards described in this Article 5 (“Other Awards”), in accordance with the terms of this Article and the Plan.

The Board has the right to accelerate the date upon which any Other Award vests notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth for such Other Award, regardless of any adverse or potentially adverse tax consequences resulting from such acceleration.

Section 5.2 Restricted Stock

The Board may grant or award Shares to Eligible Persons that are subject to transfer, vesting and forfeiture restrictions (“Restricted Stock”) in respect of such number of Shares, and subject to such terms or conditions, as it shall determine and specify in a Grant Agreement, and may provide in a Grant Agreement for an Option to be exercisable for Restricted Stock. A holder of Restricted Stock shall have all of the rights of a shareholder of the Corporation, including the right to vote the shares, unless the Board shall otherwise determine at the time of grant; provided that unless the Board determines otherwise any dividends paid on Restricted Stock will be held in escrow until all restrictions on such Shares have lapsed. Unless a Participant’s Grant Agreement provides to the contrary, unvested Restricted Stock shall not be transferred without the written consent of the Board. In addition, at the time of termination for any reason of a Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Corporation or a subsidiary, unvested Restricted Stock shall be forfeited to the Corporation for no consideration, unless otherwise determined by the Board. Share certificates, if any, representing Awards of Restricted Stock (which may also be held in book entry or similar form) shall be imprinted with a legend to the effect that the Shares represented may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except in accordance with the terms of the Grant Agreement and, if the Board so determines, the holder may be required to deposit the share certificates or other evidence of legal and beneficial ownership with the President, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or other officer of the Corporation or with an escrow agent designated by the Board, together with a stock power or other instrument of transfer appropriately endorsed in blank. In the event that the Restricted Stock is not represented by a share certificate, the Corporation shall direct the Corporation’s registrar and transfer agent to make an appropriate notation of the restrictions on transfer to which the Restricted Stock is subject in the stock books and records of the Corporation.

Section 5.3 Restricted Stock Units

The Board may grant Awards payable in Shares upon vesting (“Restricted Stock Units”) to Eligible Persons hereunder, in respect of such number of Shares, and subject to such terms or conditions, as it shall determine and specify in a Grant Agreement. A Restricted Stock Unit

represents the right to receive, without payment to the Corporation, a Share. Restricted Stock Units shall become vested as determined by the Board as set forth in the applicable Grant Agreement, unless otherwise described in the Plan. Amounts payable in connection with a Restricted Stock Unit shall be paid to the holder thereof as set forth in the applicable Grant Agreement, but in no event later than two and one-half months following the end of the calendar year in which the applicable vesting condition is met (unless receipt is deferred in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board, any of which shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code if the Participant is a United States taxpayer). Restricted Stock Units shall not constitute or be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind. All amounts at any time attributable to the Restricted Stock Units shall be and remain the sole property of the Corporation and all holders’ rights thereunder are limited to the rights to receive Shares as provided in the Plan and the applicable Grant Agreement.

Section 5.4 Other Share-Based Awards; Performance Vesting

The Board may grant such Other Awards payable in Shares as the Board may determine to be necessary or appropriate, including awards of Shares that are not subject to vesting or forfeiture restrictions. The vesting of Other Awards hereunder may be made subject to the attainment of performance goals, as the Board may determine in its discretion.

The terms of the Plan are hereby modified with respect to those Participants who are U.S. Participants:

This Appendix sets forth special provisions of the Zymeworks Inc. Amended and Restated Stock Option and Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) that apply to U.S. Participants. All Options issued under the Plan to U.S. Participants are intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code, or any successor thereto, and all provisions hereunder shall be read, interpreted, and applied with that purpose in mind. Terms used herein that are defined in the Plan shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan, as amended from time to time.

(a) For the purposes of this Appendix, the following terms have the following meanings:

(i) “Code” means the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any applicable United States Treasury Regulations and other binding regulatory guidance thereunder;

(ii) “Incentive Stock Option” means any Option granted under the Plan which is designated in the Grant Agreement (at the time it is granted) as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code or any successor thereto and which also satisfies the requirements of such section (including, without limitation, the requirement that the Participant is employed by the Corporation or a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” of the Corporation (as such terms are defined in Section 424 of the Code));

(iii) “Non-Qualified Option” means any Option granted under the Plan to a U.S. Participant which is not an Incentive Stock Option;

(iv) “Ten Percent Shareholder” means a U.S. Participant who owns (or is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation, as applicable (determined in accordance with Section 422 of the Code);

(v) “Separation From Service” shall have the meaning as set forth in United States Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) (after giving effect to the presumptions contained therein); and

(vi) “U.S. Participant” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2(a), below.

(b) The Plan and this Appendix are complementary to each other and shall, with respect to Options granted to U.S. Participants, be read and deemed as one. In the event of any contradiction, whether explicit or implied, between the provisions of this Appendix and the Plan, the provisions of this Appendix shall prevail with respect to Options granted to U.S. Participants. Options may be granted under this Appendix either as Incentive Stock Options or as Non-Qualified Options, subject to any applicable restrictions or limitations as provided under applicable law.

2. Application

(a) The following special rules and limitations are applicable to Options issued under the Plan to Participants subject to taxation in the United States (referred to hereunder as “U.S. Participants”) at the time of grant.

(b) Incentive Stock Options may be granted with respect to a maximum fixed amount equal to 20% of the Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan at the Effective Time (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.2(e) of the Plan).

(c) To the extent that the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the U.S. Participant under all Share Compensation Arrangements of the Corporation and/or its Affiliates (if applicable) exceeds US$100,000 during any calendar year, the Options or portions thereof that exceed such limit (according to the order in which they are granted) shall constitute Non-Qualified Options in accordance with Section 422(d) of the Code or any successor thereto, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan and/or Grant Agreement.

(d) Each U.S. Participant is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on or for the account of such U.S. Participant in connection with the Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Corporation nor any Affiliate of the Corporation shall have any obligation to pay, indemnify or otherwise hold such U.S. Participant (or any beneficiary) harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

(e) The Corporation and its Affiliates, if applicable, shall withhold taxes according to the requirements of applicable laws, rules and regulations, including the withholding of taxes at source to satisfy any applicable federal, provincial, state or local tax withholding obligation and employment taxes.

(f) Each recipient of an Option hereunder who is or who becomes a U.S. Participant is advised to consult with his or her personal tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences under federal, state, local and other tax laws of the receipt and/or exercise of an Option hereunder.

(g) Without derogating from the powers and authorities of the Board detailed in the Plan, and unless specifically required under applicable law, the Board shall also have the sole and full discretion and authority to administer the provisions of this Appendix and all actions related thereto including, in addition to any powers and authorities specified in the Plan, the performance, from time to time and at any time, of either or both of the following:

(i) deciding whether to issue Options as Incentive Stock Options or as Non-Qualified Options; and

(ii) adopting standard forms of Grant Agreements to be applied with respect to U.S. Participants, incorporating and reflecting, inter alia, relevant provisions regarding the grant of Options in accordance with this Appendix and amending or modifying the terms of such standard forms from time to time.

3. Exercise Price

The Exercise Price of each Option granted under the Plan to a U.S. Participant shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date such Option is granted. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in determining the Fair Market Value of a Share under the Plan in connection with the grant of an Option to a U.S. Participant, the Board will make the determination of Fair Market Value in good faith consistent with the rules of Sections 422 and 409A of the Code and the rules of the NYSE, to the extent applicable.

4. Expiry of Option

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan and any provisions of the Grant Agreement to the contrary, Options granted to U.S. Participants may not be exercised under any circumstance following the ten (10) year anniversary of the date of grant.

5. Disqualifying Disposition

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a U.S. Participant sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to an Incentive Stock Option on or before the later of (i) the date two years after the date the Option is granted or (ii) the date one year after the transfer of such Shares to the U.S. Participant upon exercise of the Incentive Stock Option, the U.S. Participant shall notify the Corporation in writing within 30 days after the date of any such disposition (“Disqualifying Disposition”) and shall remit to the Corporation or its Affiliate, as applicable, the amount of any applicable federal, state, provincial and local withholding and employment taxes which the Corporation is required to collect (if any).

6. Adjustments to Options

In the event of a corporate transaction requiring the adjustment of an Option held by a U.S. Participant, the number of Shares deliverable on the exercise of an Option held by a U.S. Participant and the Exercise Price of an Option held by a U.S. Participant shall be adjusted in a manner intended to keep the Options exempt from Section 409A of the Code and to comply with Section 422 of the Code, if applicable, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option.

7. Amendment of Appendix

The Board shall retain the power and authority to amend or modify this Appendix and any Option issued hereunder to the extent the Board in its sole discretion deems necessary or advisable to comply with law or regulation, including to comply with any guidance issued under Sections 409A or 422 of the Code. Such amendments may be made without the approval of any U.S. Participant.

8. Ten Percent Shareholders

(a) If any U.S. Participant to whom an Incentive Stock Option is to be granted under this Plan is, at the time of the grant of such Option, a Ten Percent Shareholder, then the following special provisions shall apply:

(i) the per share price at which Shares may be purchased upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option shall be no less 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share at such time as the Option is granted (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Code); and

(ii) the maximum term of the Option shall not exceed five (5) years from the date the Option is granted.

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Section 8 regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, and applicable requirements for securityholder approval, no Incentive Stock Option may be granted hereunder to a U.S. Participant following the expiry of ten (10) years after the date on which this Plan is adopted by the Board.

This agreement (the “Grant Agreement”) evidences the Options granted by Zymeworks Inc. (the “Corporation”) to the undersigned (the “Participant”), pursuant to and subject to the terms of the Zymeworks Inc. Amended and Restated Stock Option and Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), which is incorporated herein by reference.

The Corporation hereby grants to the Participant on the Date of Grant such number of Options as set forth in the attached Schedule “A”, as may be amended from time to time, with each Option representing the right to purchase, on the terms provided herein and in the Plan (including, without limitations, the applicable exercise provisions), a Share with an Exercise Price per Share as set forth in the attached Schedule “A”, as may be amended from time to time, in each case subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

No Participant has any claim or right to be granted an Option (including, without limitation, an Option granted in substitution for any Option that has expired pursuant to the terms of this Plan), and the granting of any Option is not to be construed as giving a Participant a right to continued employment or to remain a Consultant, director, officer or employee, as the case may be, of the Corporation or an Affiliate of the Corporation. Nothing contained in this Grant Agreement or the Plan shall interfere in any way with the rights of the Corporation or an Affiliate of the Corporation in connection with the employment or termination of any such person. Upon any such termination, a Participant’s rights to exercise Options will be subject to restrictions and time limits for the exercise of Options. Complete details of such restrictions are set out in the Plan, and in particular in Article 4 thereof (except to the extent that such provisions are varied in accordance with Schedule “A” hereto). The Participant hereby agrees that any rule, regulation or determination, including the interpretation by the Board of the Plan, the Option granted hereunder and the exercise thereof, is final and conclusive for all purposes and binding on all persons including the Corporation and the Participant.

The exercise of the Options granted hereby, issuance of Shares and ownership of the Shares are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan (all of which are incorporated into and form part of this Grant Agreement) and this Grant Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective successors (including any successor by reason of amalgamation of any party) and permitted assigns.

This Grant Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

By acceptance of these Options, the undersigned acknowledges receipt of the Plan text and agrees hereby to be subject and bound to the terms of the Plan. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that the Participant’s abovementioned participation is voluntary and has not been induced by expectation of engagement, appointment, employment, continued engagement or continued employment, as the case may be.

Upon

The Participant hereby agrees that any rule, regulation or determination, including the interpretation by the Board of the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder and the exercise thereof, is final and conclusive for all purposes and binding on all persons including the Corporation and the Participant.

The Participant’s record of Share ownership shall be recorded in the books of the Corporation only when the Restricted Stock Units vest and the Shares are issued.

1.           Sell on the open market at the then prevailing market price(s), on the Participant's behalf, as soon as practicable on or after the delivery of Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units, the number (rounded up to the next whole number) of Shares sufficient to generate proceeds to cover (A) the satisfaction of the Tax Obligations arising from the settlement of the associated vested Restricted Stock Units and (B) all applicable fees and commissions due to, or required to be collected by, the Agent with respect thereto;

2.            Remit directly to the Corporation the proceeds necessary to satisfy the Tax Obligations arising from the settlement of the associated vested Restricted Stock Units;

3.             Retain the amount required to cover all applicable fees and commissions due to, or required to be collected by, the Agent, relating directly to the sale; and

4.              Deposit any remaining funds in the Participant's account.

(ii)   The Participant acknowledges that the Participant's election to Sell to Cover and the corresponding authorization and instruction to the Agent set forth herein is intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and to be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act (the Participant's election to Sell to Cover and the provisions of this Section 3.3(a), collectively, the “10b5-1 Plan”). The Participant acknowledges that by accepting this Award, he or she is adopting the 10b5-1 Plan to permit the Participant to satisfy the Tax Obligations. The Participant authorizes the Corporation and the Agent to cooperate and communicate with one another to determine the number of Shares that must be sold pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) to satisfy the Tax Obligations.

(iii)    The Participant acknowledges that the Agent is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of Shares at any particular price under this 10b5-1 Plan and that the Agent may effect sales as provided in this 10b5-1 Plan in one or more sales and that the average price for executions resulting from bunched orders may be assigned to the Participant's account. In addition, the Participant acknowledges that it may not be possible to sell Shares as provided for in this 10b5-1 Plan and in the event of the Agent’s inability to sell Shares, the Participant will continue to be responsible for the Tax Obligations.

(iv)    The Participant hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Agent any other agreements or documents as the Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this 10b5-1 Plan. The Agent is a third-party beneficiary of this Section 3.3(a) and the terms of this 10b5-1 Plan.

(v)  The Participant's election to Sell to Cover and to enter into this 10b5-1 Plan is irrevocable. This 10b5-1 Plan shall terminate not later than the date on which the Tax Obligations arising from the Award or the transactions contemplated by this Grant Agreement are satisfied.

(vi)  The Participant further represents that:

1.            The Participant is not in possession, and is not aware, of any material nonpublic information about the Shares or the Corporation as of the date of his or her signature below;

2.          Unless this 10b5-1 Plan is modified or terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, the Participant agrees not to alter, deviate from or suspend the terms of this 10b5-1 Plan;

3.              The Participant is entering into this 10b5-1 Plan in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade any law, including, without limitation, any securities laws or any law governing insider trading; and

4.             The Participant will not disclose to the Agent any information concerning the Corporation that might influence the execution of this 10b5-1 Plan.

(b) To the extent that the Corporation declares a cash dividend while all or a portion of the Restricted Stock Units are unvested, the Participant shall be credited with dividend equivalent rights (as determined by the Board in its discretion) with respect to each Share subject to the unvested portion of the Restricted Stock Units. Such dividend equivalent right will entitle the Participant to payment of such dividend only upon vesting of the corresponding portion of the Restricted Stock Unit; and such right will be forfeited to the extent the corresponding portion of the Restricted Stock Unit is forfeited.

(c) No purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in or lien on, any of the Restricted Stock Units by any holder thereof shall be valid (other than pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution).

(d) This Grant Agreement, together with the Plan, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. No statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement not expressly set forth in this Grant Agreement shall affect or be used to interpret, change or restrict the express terms and provisions of this Grant Agreement provided, however, in any event, this Grant Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the Plan.

(e) The award of Restricted Stock Units evidenced by this Grant Agreement to any Participant who is a United States taxpayer is intended to be exempt from the nonqualified deferred compensation rules of Section 409A of the Code as a “short term deferral” (as that term is used in the final regulations and other guidance issued under Section 409A of the Code, including Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)(i)), and shall be construed and administered accordingly.

(f) This Grant Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

By acceptance of these Restricted Stock Units, the undersigned acknowledges receipt of the Plan text and agrees hereby to be subject and bound to the terms of the Plan. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that the Participant’s abovementioned participation is voluntary and has not been induced by expectation of engagement, appointment, employment, continued engagement or continued employment, as the case may be.
