  (b)

Subject to Applicable Law, Subsection 3.1(c) hereof and the limitations of the Plan, the Plan will be administered by the Board and the Board has the sole and complete authority, in its discretion, to:



- 7 -

The Board may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any agreement relating thereto in the manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary to effectuate the purpose and intent of the Plan. The Committee may adopt special guidelines and provisions for Persons who are residing in, or subject to, the taxes of, any jurisdiction outside of Canada (including, without limitation, countries, states, provinces and localities) to comply with applicable tax, and securities and other laws and may impose any limitations and restrictions that it deems necessary to comply with the applicable tax, securities and other laws of such jurisdiction outside of Canada.

Any decision, interpretation or other action made or taken in good faith by or at the direction of the Corporation, the Board or the Committee or any of its members arising out of or in connection with the Plan shall be within the absolute discretion of all and each of them, as the case may be, and shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Corporation, Optionees and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

The Board’s interpretation, construction or determination of its guidelines and rules will be conclusive and binding upon all parties concerned. The day-to-day administration of the Plan may be delegated to such officers and employees of the Corporation or of an Affiliated Corporation as the Board may in its sole discretion determine.

  (c)

To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Board may, from time to time, delegate to a committee (the “Committee”) of the Board all or any of the powers conferred on the Board under the Plan. In such event, the Committee will exercise the powers delegated to it by the Board in the manner and on the terms authorized by the Board. Any decision made or action taken by the Committee arising out of or in connection with the administration or interpretation of the Plan in this context is final and conclusive.

Any Shares subject to an Option which has been granted under the Plan and which is cancelled or terminated for any reason without having been exercised will be added back to the number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan and such Shares will again be available for grant under the Plan. No fractional Shares may be issued, and the Board may determine the manner in which any fractional Share value will be treated.


  3.3

Eligibility


Participation in the Plan shall be limited to Eligible Persons. Participation shall be voluntary and the extent to which any Eligible Person shall be entitled to participate in the Plan shall be, subject to the terms of the Plan and Applicable Law, determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Board. Eligibility to participate does not confer upon any Optionee any right to be granted Options pursuant to the Plan.

   
4.

OPTIONS


  4.1

Grants


  (a)

The Board may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Board may prescribe, grant Options to any Eligible Person.

     
  (b)

Subject to the Plan, the Board may impose limitations, restrictions and conditions, in addition to those set out in the Plan, that are applicable to the exercise of an Option, including, without limitation, the nature and duration of any restrictions applicable to a sale or other disposition of Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option and the nature of events, if any, that may cause any Optionee’s rights in



- 9 -

respect of Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option to be forfeited and the duration of the period of such forfeiture.

  (c)

An Eligible Person may receive Options on more than one occasion under the Plan and may receive separate Options on any one occasion.

       
  (d)

Additionally, if the Corporation is a Public Company then the Corporation shall not grant Options:

       
  (i)

to any one person in any 12 month period which could, when exercised, result in the issuance of Shares exceeding five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Corporation unless disinterested shareholder approval is obtained; or

       
  (ii)

to any one Consultant which could, when exercised, in any 12 month period result in the issuance of Shares exceeding two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Corporation;

       
  (iii)

to all persons employed by the Corporation who perform investor relations activities which could, when exercised, in any 12 month period result in the issuance of Shares exceeding two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Corporation nor shall more than 1/4 of any such Options vest in any three month period;

       
  (iv)

if the aggregate number of Shares issuable pursuant to Options granted to Insiders pursuant to the Plan and other security based compensation arrangements would exceed 10% of the Corporation’s total issued and outstanding Common Shares unless disinterested shareholder approval is obtained; or

       
  (v)

if the aggregate number of Shares issued to Insiders pursuant to the Plan and other security based compensation arrangements within any one-year period would exceed 10% of the Corporation’s total issued and outstanding Shares, unless disinterested shareholder approval is obtained.

4.2        Exercise Price

  (a)

Subject to Applicable Law and to adjustment from time to time in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof, the exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of an Option granted pursuant to the Plan will be as determined by the Board but in any event, unless otherwise determined by the Board, shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Business Day immediately prior to the Date of Grant.

     
  (b)

Furthermore, if the Corporation is a Public Company, disinterested shareholder approval is required in order to reduce the exercise price of an Optionee that is an Insider of the Corporation at the time of the proposed amendment.



- 10 -

4.3        Term of Options

Subject to any accelerated termination as set forth in the Plan, Options must expire no later than ten (10) years after the Date of Grant or such lesser period as applicable regulatory authorities or Applicable Law may require.

4.4        Vesting of Options

  (a)

The Board may determine, in its sole discretion, in respect of an Option, when an Option will become exercisable and the extent to which an Option will vest or will be exercisable in instalments (the “Vesting Schedule”) and such Vesting Schedule shall be set forth in the applicable Option Agreement. For example, the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide that the vesting of an Option be dependent on the passage of time and/or on the achievement of specified milestones or thresholds.

     
  (b)

Notwithstanding Subparagraph 4.4(a), if the Corporation is a Public Company then any Options issued to a Consultant Optionee must vest in stages over at least a 12 month period with no more than ¼ of such Options vesting in any three (3) month period.

     
  (c)

Once a portion of an Option vests and becomes exercisable, it shall remain exercisable until expiration or termination of such Option, unless otherwise specified by the Board in connection with the grant of such Option or pursuant to Section 4.13 hereof with respect to a Change of Control. Each Option or portion thereof may be exercised at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part, for up to the total number of Shares with respect to which it is then exercisable.

4.5        Option Agreements

Each Option must be confirmed by an agreement (an “Option Agreement”), in the form of the option agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “A” (as may be amended by the Board from time to time, and with such changes thereto as may be necessary for any particular Option to a particular Optionee), signed by the Corporation and by the Optionee. In the event an Option is Transferred in accordance with the terms of the Plan, it shall be a condition to the effectiveness of such Transfer that the Eligible Transferee enter into an Option Agreement on the same terms and conditions.

4.6        Exercise of Option and Payment of Exercise Price

The Optionee may, from time to time and at any time after the vesting of an Option and prior to the expiry of such Option, elect to purchase all or a portion of the Shares available for purchase by lump sum payment by delivering to the Corporation at its registered office (or other office designated in writing by the Corporation to the Optionee), a completed Notice of Exercise substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B”. Such notice shall specify the number of Shares the Optionee desires to purchase and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price for such Shares. Subject to the provisions of the immediately following sentence, payment may be made by bank draft or certified cheque payable to the order of the Corporation at the


- 11 -

time of exercise. Upon receipt of payment in full or, in the discretion of the Board, upon the determination that the fair value of property or past services provided by the Optionee is equal to or greater than the Exercise Price if the Shares had been issued for money, and in any event, subject to the terms of the Plan, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised will be duly issued as fully paid and non-assessable.

4.7        Power of Attorney

Every Optionee who acquires Shares pursuant to the exercise of Options will, while the Corporation is not a Public Company and as a pre-condition to the issuance of such Shares, execute and deliver to the Corporation an irrevocable power of attorney (the “Power of Attorney”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “E” (subject to such amendments thereto as the Board may require from time to time).

4.8        Deposit of Share Certificates with Corporation

While the Corporation is not a Public Company, any certificate evidencing a Share purchased by an Optionee upon the exercise of an Option may be held by the Corporation on behalf of the Optionee. By the exercise of an Option, the Optionee shall be deemed to have irrevocably appointed the Secretary of the Corporation (or failing him, any other officer of the Corporation designated by it) his attorney to endorse in blank for transfer any certificates issued by the Corporation representing any Shares issued on the exercise of an Option. Upon the exercise of an Option, the Corporation will issue to each Optionee a Deposit Receipt (which shall be signed by the Optionee as a pre-condition to the issuance of the Shares issuable on the exercise of the Option):

  (i)

indicating the number of Shares the Corporation is holding as a result of the exercise of such Option; and

     
  (ii)

acknowledging that the Corporation is holding the certificate in respect of such Shares on behalf of the Optionee,

all subject to the terms of the Plan. The Shares will not be, and cannot be required to be, unless the Board determines otherwise, released to the Optionee until the Corporation is a Public Company.

4.9        Prohibition on Transfer of Options and Shares

  (a)

Subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.9 and Section 4.10, an Option is personal to the Optionee and is non-assignable, other than by will or laws of descent and distribution, and such Option shall be exercisable during the Optionee’s lifetime only by the Optionee to which such Option has been granted. No Optionee may deal with any Option or any interest in it or Transfer any Option now or hereafter held by the Optionee except in accordance with the Plan. If an Optionee’s Holding Company ceases to be wholly-owned by the Optionee, the Holding Company will be deemed to have Transferred any Options held by such Holding Company to the Optionee. A purported Transfer of any Option in violation of the Plan will not be valid and the Corporation will not be required to issue any Shares upon the attempted exercise of an improperly Transferred



- 12 -

Option. Nothing contained herein shall permit any Optionee to transfer any Option, whether to an Eligible Transferee or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Board. Subject to Applicable Law and subject to the prior written consent of the Board, an Option may be transferred to and from the Optionee and an Eligible Transferee provided that the transferor delivers to the Corporation at its registered office a completed Notice of Transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as “Exhibit D”.

  (b)

Options and Shares issued upon exercise thereof are subject to transfer and resale restrictions pursuant to the constating documents of the Corporation and Applicable Law. The Optionee is responsible for obtaining such legal advice as may be appropriate in connection with any transfer or resale of Options and Shares issued upon the exercise thereof.

4.10       Death, Disability or Retirement of Optionee

If,

  (a)

an Employee Optionee or an Executive Optionee dies or becomes Disabled while an employee, director or officer of the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation, as the case may be;

     
  (b)

a Consultant Optionee’s consulting agreement or arrangement with the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation, as the case may be, is terminated by reason of the death or Disability of such Optionee; or

     
  (c)

the employment or term of office of an Employee Optionee or an Executive Optionee with the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation, as the case may be, terminates due to Retirement,

then

  (d)

the executor, administrator or other legal representative of such Optionee’s estate or such Optionee, as the case may be, may exercise any Options granted to such Optionee to the extent that such Options were exercisable at the date of such death, Disability or Retirement and the right to exercise such Options shall terminate on the earlier of:

       
  (i)

the date that is 180 days from the date of such Optionee’s death, Disability or Retirement; and

       
  (ii)

the date of expiration specified in the Option Agreement or in the resolution of the Board granting such Option, as the case may be,

       
 

provided that any Options granted to such Optionee that were not exercisable at the date of the death, Disability or Retirement shall immediately expire and be cancelled on such date; and



- 13 -

  (e)

such Optionee’s eligibility to receive further grants of Options under the Plan shall cease as of the date of such Optionee’s death, Disability or Retirement, as the case may be.

4.11        Termination of Employment or Services by reason other than Death, Disability or Retirement

  (a)

Where, in the case of an Employee Optionee or Executive Optionee, an Optionee’s employment or term of office with the Corporation or an Affiliated Company ceases by reason of the Optionee’s death, Disability or Retirement, then the provisions of Section 4.10 hereof shall apply.

       
  (b)

Where, in the case of an Employee Optionee or Executive Optionee, an Optionee’s employment or term of office with the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation terminates by reason of:

       
  (i)

termination by the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation without Cause (whether such termination occurs with or without any or adequate reasonable notice, or with or without any or adequate compensation in lieu of such reasonable notice);

       
  (ii)

voluntary resignation by such Optionee; or

       
  (iii)

in the case of an Executive Optionee who received Options in his or her capacity as a director of the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation, the failure of such Executive Optionee to be re-elected as a director or the removal of such Executive Optionee from the board of directors of the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation,

       
 

then any Options granted to such Optionee that are exercisable at the Termination Date shall continue to be exercisable until the earlier of: (A) the date that is 30 days following the Termination Date; and (B) the date of expiration specified in the Option Agreement or in the resolution of the Board granting such Option, as the case may be. Any Options granted to such Optionee that are not exercisable at the Termination Date shall immediately expire and be cancelled on the Termination Date.

       
  (c)

Where, in the case of an Employee Optionee or Executive Optionee, such Optionee’s employment or term of office with the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation is terminated by the Corporation or Affiliated Corporation for Cause then any Options granted to such Optionee, whether or not exercisable at the Termination Date, shall immediately expire and be cancelled on the Termination Date contemporaneously with such termination.

       
  (d)

Where, in the case of a Consultant Optionee, such Optionee’s consulting agreement or arrangement terminates by reason of:

       
  (i)

termination by the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation for any reason other than for material breach of the consulting agreement or arrangement (whether or not such termination is effected in compliance with any



- 14 -

termination provisions contained in such Optionee’s consulting agreement or arrangement); or

(ii)       voluntary termination by such Optionee,

then any Options granted to such Optionee that are exercisable at the Termination Date shall continue to be exercisable until the earlier of: (A) the date that is 30 days following the Termination Date; and (B) the date of expiration specified in the Option Agreement or in the resolution of the Board granting such Option, as the case may be. Any Options granted to such Optionee that are not exercisable at the Termination Date shall immediately expire and be cancelled on such date.

  (e)

Where, in the case of a Consultant Optionee, such Optionee’s consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated by the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation for material breach of the consulting agreement or arrangement (whether or not such termination is effected in compliance with any termination provisions contained in such Optionee’s consulting agreement or arrangement), then any Options granted to such Optionee, whether or not such Options are exercisable at the Termination Date, shall immediately expire and be cancelled on the Termination Date contemporaneously with such termination.

     
  (f)

Unless the Board, in its discretion, otherwise determines at any time and from time to time, Options shall not be affected by any change of employment or consulting arrangement within or among the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation for so long as an Employee Optionee continues to be an employee of the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation, or for so long as the Executive Optionee continues to be a director or officer of the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation, or for so long as the Consultant Optionee continues to be engaged as a consultant to the Corporation or an Affiliated Corporation, as the case may be. For greater certainty, if an Optionee ceases to be an Executive Optionee but remains an Employee Optionee, the Options granted to such Optionee shall not be affected by such change.

4.12        Discretion to Permit Exercise

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 4.10 and 4.11 hereof, the Board may, in its discretion, at any time prior to or following the events contemplated in such Sections, permit the exercise of any or all Options held by an Optionee in the manner and on the terms authorized by the Board, provided that the Board shall not, in any case, authorize the exercise of an Option pursuant to this Section beyond the date of expiration specified in the Option Agreement or in the resolution of the Board granting such Option, as the case may be.

4.13        Change of Control

  (a)

For the purposes of the Plan,

       
  (i)

Change of Control” shall mean the happening of any of the following events: (A) any transaction pursuant to which the Corporation goes out of



- 15 -

existence; (B) any transaction pursuant to which any Person or any Associate or Affiliate of such Person and any Person acting jointly or in concert with such Person (within the meaning of the Securities Act (Ontario)) (other than the Corporation, a subsidiary of the Corporation or an employee benefit plan of the Corporation (including any trustee of such plan acting as trustee)), hereafter acquires the direct or indirect “beneficial ownership” (as such term is defined in the Business Corporations Act (Ontario)) of securities of the Corporation representing 50% or more of the aggregate votes of all of the Corporation’s then issued and outstanding securities; (C) the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets to a Person other than a Person that is an Affiliated Corporation; (D) the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation except in connection with the distribution of assets of the Corporation to one or more Persons which were Affiliated Corporations prior to such event; or (E) the occurrence of a transaction requiring approval of the Corporation’s shareholders involving the acquisition of the Corporation by an entity through purchase of assets, by amalgamation or otherwise; and

  (ii)

Change of Control Price” shall mean the highest price per Share paid in any transaction related to a Change of Control.


  (b)

Notwithstanding anything else in the Plan or contained in any Option Agreement, unless otherwise determined by the Board, outstanding Options shall be converted or exchanged into or for options, rights or other securities in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change of Control, (each such Option hereinafter called an “Alternative Option”) and any such Alternative Option must meet the following criteria:

       
  (i)

the Alternative Option must be based on stock which is traded on an established securities market, or which will be so traded within 30 days of the Change of Control;

       
  (ii)

the Alternative Option must provide such Optionee with rights and entitlements substantially equivalent to or better than the rights, terms and conditions applicable under such Option, including, but not limited to, an identical or better exercise schedule; and

       
  (iii)

the Alternative Option must have economic value substantially equivalent to the value of such Option (determined at the time of the Change of Control) (having regard to such factors as the Board shall reasonably consider applicable).

       
  (c)

The Board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of any or all outstanding Options to provide that, notwithstanding the Vesting Schedule or any Option Agreement, such outstanding Options shall be fully vested and conditionally exercisable upon (or prior to) the completion of the Change of Control, provided, however, that the Board shall not, in any case, authorize the exercise of Options pursuant to this Section beyond the date of expiration specified in the Option Agreement or resolution of the Board granting such



- 16 -

Options, as the case may be. If the Board elects to accelerate the vesting of the Options, and if any of such Options are not exercised within five Business Day following the giving of notice of such acceleration, such unexercised Options shall terminate and expire upon 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 of the Options shall be retracted and vesting shall instead revert to the manner provided in the Vesting Schedule or Option Agreement.

  (d)

The Board, in its sole discretion, may provide for the purchase of any Option by the Corporation or an Affiliate or other Person upon (or prior to) the completion of the Change of Control for an amount equal to: (i) the Change of Control Price of each Share underlying an Option multiplied by the Shares underlying such Options, less (ii) the aggregate Exercise Price of such Options.

     
  (i)

If, in connection with a Change of Control, the shareholders of the Corporation are to receive consideration other than consideration consisting solely of cash, then the Board may determine, prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control, that upon the exercise of any Options after the Change of Control, that the Optionees shall be entitled to receive that consideration which they would have received had they exercised their Options immediately prior to the Change of Control and sold their Shares on the same terms and conditions as the shareholders of the Corporation who sold their Shares in connection with the Change of Control.


5.

GENERAL

   

5.1        Capital Adjustments


  (a)

The existence of any Options shall not affect in any way the right and power of the Corporation or its shareholders to make, authorize or determine any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization, or any other change in the Corporation’s capital structure or its business, or any amalgamation, combination, merger or consolidation involving the Corporation, to create or issue any bonds, debentures, Shares or other securities of the Corporation or to determine the rights and conditions attaching thereto, to effect the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or to effect any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise, whether or not any such action referred to in this Subsection 5.1(a) would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Option granted hereunder.

     
  (b)

If there is any change in the outstanding Shares by reason of a stock dividend or split, recapitalization, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares or other similar corporate change, other than a Change of Control, subject to any prior approval required of applicable regulatory authorities, the Board may make appropriate substitution or adjustment in:


  (i)

the Exercise Price of unexercised Options;



- 17 -

  (ii)

the number or kind of shares or other securities reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan; and

     
  (iii)

the number and kind of shares subject to unexercised Options theretofore granted and in the Exercise Price of those shares,

provided, however, that no substitution or adjustment will obligate the Corporation to issue or sell fractional shares. The determination of the Board as to any adjustment, or as to there being no need for adjustment, will be final and binding on all parties concerned.

5.2        Conditions of Exercise

The Plan and Options are subject to the requirement that if at any time the Board determines that: (a) the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares subject to such Option upon any stock exchange or quotation system or under any provincial, state or federal law, or that the consent or approval of any governmental body, stock exchange or quotation system or of the holders of the Shares generally, is necessary or desirable, as a condition of, or in connection with the granting of such Option or the issuance of Shares upon the exercise thereof; or (b) the grant of an Option or the issuance of Shares upon the exercise thereof is in conflict with or is inconsistent with Applicable Law, no such Option may be granted or exercised in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained or such conflict or inconsistency is no longer outstanding, each free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The Optionees shall, to the extent applicable, co-operate with the Corporation in relation to such registration, qualification or other approval and shall have no claim or cause of action against the Corporation or any of its officers or directors as a result of any failure by the Corporation to obtain or to take any steps to obtain any such registration, qualification, or approval.

5.3        Amendment and Termination

  (a)

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion of it at any time in accordance with Applicable Law and subject to any required regulatory, Exchange or shareholder approval. However, subject to the terms hereof, unless consent is obtained from the Optionee affected, no amendment, suspension or termination may alter or impair any Options, or any rights related to Options, that were granted to that Optionee prior to the amendment, suspension or termination.

     
  (b)

If the Plan is terminated, the provisions of the Plan and any administrative guidelines and other rules adopted by the Board and in force at the time of termination of the Plan will continue in effect as long as any Option remains outstanding. However, notwithstanding the termination of the Plan, the Board may make any amendments to the Plan or to any outstanding Option that the Board would have been entitled to make if the Plan were still in effect.

     
  (c)

Subject to Applicable Law and to any necessary prior approval of applicable regulatory authorities and with the consent of the affected Optionee, the Board may amend or modify any outstanding Option in any manner, including, without



- 18 -

limitation, by changing the date or dates as of which, or the price at which, an Option becomes exercisable, so long as the Board would have had the authority to grant initially the Option as so modified or amended.

5.4        Status as Shareholder

Optionees shall not have any rights as a shareholder with respect to Shares until:

  (a)

full payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares has been made to the Corporation;

     
  (b)

a Deposit Receipt with respect to such Shares shall have been duly issued; and

     
  (c)

the Optionee executes and delivers to the Corporation the Power of Attorney (only if the Corporation is not a Public Company).

Upon becoming a shareholder of the Corporation, an Optionee may only transfer Shares in accordance with and subject to Applicable Law, the constating documents of the Corporation and the terms of the Power of Attorney.

5.5        Withholding Taxes

The exercise of each Option granted under the Plan is subject to the condition that if at any time the Corporation determines, in its discretion, that the satisfaction of withholding tax or other withholding liabilities is necessary or desirable in respect of such exercise, such exercise is not effective unless such withholding has been effected to the satisfaction of the Corporation. In such circumstances, the Corporation may require that an Optionee pay to the Corporation, in addition to and in the same manner as the Exercise Price for the Shares, such amount as the Corporation is obliged to remit to the relevant taxing authority in respect of the exercise of the Option. Any such additional payment is due no later than the date as of which any amount with respect to the Option exercised first becomes includable in the gross income of the Optionee for tax purposes.

5.6        Non-Exclusivity and Corporate Action

  (a)

Subject to any required regulatory or shareholder approval, nothing contained herein will prevent the Board from adopting other additional compensation arrangements for the benefit of any Optionee.

     
  (b)

Nothing contained in the Plan or in the Options shall be construed so as to prevent the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation from taking corporate action which is deemed by the Corporation or the subsidiary to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan.

5.7        Employment and Board of Directors Position Non-Contractual

The granting of an Option to an Optionee under the Plan does not confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the employment of the Corporation or any Affiliated Corporation or as a member of the Board, as the case may be, nor does it interfere in any way with the rights of the Optionee or of the Corporation’s rights to terminate the


- 19 -

Optionee's employment or consulting arrangements at any time or of the shareholders' right to elect one or more directors of the Corporation.

5.8        Indemnification

Every member of the Board will at all times be indemnified and saved harmless by the Corporation from and against all costs, charges and expenses whatsoever including any income tax liability arising from any such indemnification, that such Board member may sustain or incur by reason of any action, suit or proceeding, taken or threatened against the Board member, otherwise by the Corporation, for or in respect of any act done or omitted by the Board member in respect of the Plan, such costs, charges and expenses to include any amount paid to settle such action, suite or proceeding or in satisfaction of any judgement rendered therein.

5.9        Notices

All written notices to be delivered by the Optionee to the Corporation may be delivered personally, by facsimile or by registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

AMG Oil Ltd.
30 St. Clair Avenue West
Toronto, Ontario
M4V 3A1

Attention:        Alan Friedman, President
Facsimile No.: (416) 250-6330

Any notice to be delivered to the Optionee shall be effective when delivered personally (effective at the time of delivery), by facsimile transmission (effective one day after transmission) or by postage prepaid mail to the last address of the Optionee on the records of the Corporation (which shall be deemed effective the first Business Day after mailing).

5.10       Governing Law

This Plan is created under and is to be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein.

5.11        Effective Date

This Plan will become effective as of August 31, 2009 upon its adoption by resolution of the Board.
