On March 1, 2016, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with a syndicate of underwriters co-led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Clarus Securities Inc. and including Cormark Securities Inc., Laurentian Bank Securities Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc., Dundee Securities Ltd., GMP Securities L.P., Scotia Capital Inc. and TD Securities Inc.

Attention:Barry Fishman, Chief Executive Officer & Director

Dear Sirs/Mesdames:

Canaccord Genuity Corp. (“Canaccord”) and Clarus Securities Inc. (“Clarus” and collectively with Canaccord, the “Co-Lead Underwriters”), together with Cormark Securities Inc., Laurentian Bank Securities Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc., Dundee Securities Ltd., GMP Securities L.P., Scotia Capital Inc. and TD Securities Inc. (collectively with the Co-Lead Underwriters, the “Underwriters”, and each individually, an “Underwriter”) hereby severally, and not jointly, nor jointly and severally, in their respective percentages set out in Section 16 below, offer to purchase from Merus Labs International Inc. (the “Corporation”) and the Corporation hereby agrees to issue and sell to the Underwriters, 14,250,000 subscription receipts of the Corporation (the “Subscription Receipts”), on a “bought deal” private placement basis, at the purchase price of $1.90 per Subscription Receipt (the “Offering Price”), for aggregate gross proceeds of $27,075,000. The offering of the Subscription Receipts by the Corporation is hereinafter referred to as the “Offering”.

Subscription Receipts

The gross proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Receipts (the “Escrowed Funds”), less one-half of the Commission (as defined below) for the Subscription Receipts and the amount payable to the Underwriters on account of their expenses payable pursuant to this Agreement, will be held by Computershare Trust Company of Canada (or such other escrow agent determined by the Corporation), as escrow agent for the Corporation (the “Subscription Receipt Agent”)in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement (as defined below).

Upon the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions (as defined below), the Escrowed Funds shall be released to the Corporation (less the remaining 50% of the Commission, which shall be paid to Canaccord (on behalf of the Underwriters) and the Dividend Equivalent Payment (as defined below), less applicable withholding taxes, which shall be paid to holders of Subscription Receipts in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement), and each Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive, at the Release Time (as defined below) on the Release Date (as defined below) and without payment of additional consideration or further action on the part of the holder, one (1) special warrant (each, a “Special Warrant’). The description of the Subscription Receipts herein is a summary only and is subject to the specific attributes and detailed provisions of the Subscription Receipts to be set forth in the Subscription Receipt Agreement. In the case of any inconsistency between the description of the Subscription Agreements in this Agreement and their terms and conditions as set forth in the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement will govern.

 1 
 

In the event that: (a) the Release Time fails to occur by 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on April 30, 2016 (which date may be extended up to an additional 30 days by Canaccord (on behalf of the Underwriters), in its sole discretion, by delivery of notice in writing to the Corporation); or (b) the Corporation has advised the Underwriters or announced to the public that it does not intend to proceed with the Acquisition (any such event being a “Termination Event”, and the date upon which such event occurs being the “Termination Date”), the Subscription Receipt Agent and the Corporation will return to the holders of Subscription Receipts, commencing on the fifth Business Day (as defined below) following the Termination Date, an amount equal to the Offering Price and the Subscription Receipts will be cancelled.

Special Warrants

The Special Warrants will be duly and validly created and issued pursuant to, and governed by, a special warrant indenture (the “Special Warrant Indenture”) to be entered into effective on the Closing Date between the Corporation and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (or such other agent determined by the Corporation), as special warrant agent for the Corporation (the “Special Warrant Agent”). The description of the Special Warrants herein is a summary only and is subject to the specific attributes and detailed provisions of the Special Warrants to be set forth in the Special Warrant Indenture. In the case of any inconsistency between the description of the Special Warrants in this Agreement and their terms and conditions as set forth in the Special Warrant Indenture, the provisions of the Special Warrant Indenture will govern.

Each Special Warrant will entitle its holder to receive one (1) common share in the capital of the Corporation (each, an “Underlying Share”), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances in accordance with the Special Warrant Indenture, for no additional consideration upon the exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants at any time after the issuance of the Special Warrants.

The Special Warrants will be exercisable by the holders thereof at any time after the issuance of the Special Warrants without payment of additional consideration, and all unexercised Special Warrants will be automatically exercised on the date (the “Deemed Exercise Date”) that is the earlier of: (i) the date that is the third Business Day after the date that the Qualification Prospectus (as defined below) is filed in each of the Qualifying Jurisdictions qualifying the distribution of the Underlying Shares; and (ii) 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is four months and one day following the Closing Date.

Commission

In consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to purchase the Subscription Receipts (which agreement will result from the acceptance of this offer by the Corporation), and in consideration of the services rendered and to be rendered by the Underwriters in connection therewith, the Corporation agrees to pay or cause to be paid to Canaccord (on behalf of the Underwriters) a fee equal to (a) $0.095 (5.0%) per Subscription Receipt issued and sold by the Corporation (the “Commission”). The Commission for the Subscription Receipts shall be payable to the Underwriters: (i) as to 50% at the Time of Closing; and (ii) the remaining 50% upon release of the Escrowed Funds to the Corporation upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions. For greater certainty, in the event that the Acquisition is not completed by the Corporation in the manner contemplated by the Subscription Receipt Agreement and the Escrowed Funds are returned by the Subscription Receipt Agent to the purchasers of the Subscription Receipts, the Commission for the Subscription Receipts shall be reduced to the amount payable at the Time of Closing.

Schedule “B” Subsidiaries

Section 2 Offering.

(1)The Corporation understands that, although the offer to act as Underwriters with respect to the Subscription Receipts is made hereunder by the Underwriters to the Corporation as purchasers, the Underwriters have the right to arrange for the Subscription Receipts to be purchased by substituted purchasers (“Substituted Purchasers”):
(a)in the Qualifying Jurisdictions on a private placement basis in compliance with Canadian Securities Laws such that the offer and sale of the Subscription Receipts does not obligate the Corporation to file a prospectus (other than the Qualification Prospectus relating to the distribution of the Underlying Shares as contemplated in the Special Warrant Indenture);
(b)in the United States pursuant to the representations, warranties, acknowledgments, agreements and covenants of the Corporation and the Underwriters contained in Schedule “A” hereto; and
(c)in such other jurisdictions on a private placement basis in compliance with all applicable securities laws of such other jurisdictions provided that no prospectus, registration statement, offering memorandum or similar document is required to be filed in such jurisdiction, no registration or similar requirement would apply with respect to the Corporation in such other jurisdictions and the Corporation does not thereafter become subject to on-going or continuous disclosure obligations in such other jurisdictions.

 10 
 

    For greater certainty, to the extent that the Substituted Purchasers purchase Subscription Receipts at the Closing, the Underwriters shall not be obligated to purchase such Subscription Receipts and, to the extent that the Substituted Purchasers do not purchase such Subscription Receipts, the Underwriters will remain obligated to purchase such Subscription Receipts.

(2)The Underwriters will notify the Corporation with respect to the identity of any Purchaser as soon as practicable and with a view to leaving sufficient time to allow the Corporation to secure compliance with all relevant regulatory requirements of the Selling Jurisdictions and in such other jurisdictions as the Underwriters and the Corporation shall determine relating to the sale of the Subscription Receipts. The Corporation undertakes to file, or cause to be filed, all forms or undertakings required to be filed by the Corporation and to pay all filing fees in connection with the issue and sale of the Subscription Receipts so that the distribution of such securities may lawfully occur without the necessity of filing a prospectus or an offering memorandum in Canada or a comparable document elsewhere. If requested by the Corporation, the Underwriters undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Purchasers to complete any forms required by the Corporation in order to confirm the availability of a private placement exemption and by applicable Securities Laws.
(3)The certificates (or electronic or book entry evidence thereof) representing the Subscription Receipts delivered at Closing shall contain such restrictive legends regarding resale of such securities as are set forth in the Subscription Agreements.

Section 3 Filing of Qualification Prospectus.

(1)The Corporation has prepared and filed with the Securities Commissions a preliminary short form base shelf prospectus dated July 9, 2015 (the “Preliminary Base Prospectus”), and a final short form base shelf prospectus dated October 30, 2015 in respect of up to $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of common shares, warrants, subscription receipts, preferred shares and units of the Corporation (collectively, the “Shelf Securities”) pursuant to applicable Canadian Securities Laws. The Corporation selected the Ontario Securities Commission (the “Reviewing Authority”) as its principal regulator in respect of the offering of the Shelf Securities, and the Reviewing Authority has issued a decision document (a “Decision Document”) under MI 11-102 on behalf of itself and the other Securities Commissions for each of the Preliminary Base Prospectus and the Base Prospectus.

Section 11 Closing

(1)Location of Closing. The Offering will be completed at the offices of McMillan LLP in Vancouver, British Columbia at the Time of Closing.
(2)Securities. At the Time of Closing, subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the Corporation shall deliver to the Underwriters in Toronto, Ontario, the Subscription Receipts, in electronic or certificated form, registered as directed by the Co-Lead Underwriters, on behalf of the Underwriters, in writing not less than 24 hours prior to the Time of Closing, against payment to the Corporation by the Co-Lead Underwriters, on behalf of the Underwriters, of the aggregate Offering Price for the Subscription Receipts being issued and sold hereunder by wire transfer or certified cheque, net of the Commission and any expenses of the Underwriters payable by the Corporation as set out in this Agreement.

Section 12 Indemnification and Contribution

(1)The Corporation together with its subsidiaries or affiliated companies, as the case may be (collectively, the “Indemnitor”) hereby agrees to indemnify and hold each of the Underwriters, and/or any of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, unitholders and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and individually an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all expenses, losses (other than loss of profits), fees, claims, actions (including shareholder actions, derivative actions or otherwise), suits, proceedings, damages, liabilities or expenses of whatever nature or kind, whether joint or several, including the aggregate amount paid in reasonable settlement of any actions, suits, proceedings, investigations or claims, and the reasonable fees and expenses of their legal counsel (collectively, the “Losses”) that may be incurred in investigating or advising with respect to and/or defending or settling any actual or threatened claims, actions, suits, proceedings or investigation (collectively, the “Claims”) that may be made against the Indemnified Parties or to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject or otherwise involved in any capacity under any statute or common law or otherwise insofar as such Losses and/or Claims arise out of or are based, directly or indirectly, upon the performance of professional services rendered to the Corporation by the Indemnified Parties hereunder or otherwise in connection with the matters referred to in this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this indemnity shall apply to all Losses that the Indemnified Parties may incur as a result of any Claim that may be threatened or brought against the Indemnified Parties. This indemnity shall cease to apply to an Indemnified Party to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable shall determine that such Losses were solely caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or fraud of such Indemnified Party. For greater certainty, the Corporation and the Underwriters agree that they do not intend that any failure by the Underwriters to conduct such reasonable investigation as necessary to provide the Underwriters with reasonable grounds for believing the Qualification Prospectus contained no misrepresentation shall constitute “gross negligence”, “willful misconduct”, “bad faith” or “fraud” for purposes of this Section 12(1) or otherwise disentitle the Underwriters from indemnification hereunder.
 41 
 

 

(2)If for any reason (other than a determination as to any of the events referred to above) the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified Party, or is insufficient to hold them harmless, then the Indemnitor shall contribute to the Losses paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Claim in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnitor on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party as well as any relevant equitable considerations, provided that the Indemnitor shall in any event contribute to the Losses paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Claim, in such amount that is in excess of the amount of the Commission actually received by the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement. In the case of liability arising out of the Qualification Prospectus, the relative fault of the Corporation, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference, among other things, to whether the misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation, order, inquiry, investigation or other matter or thing referred to in Section 12 relates to information supplied or which ought to have been supplied by, or steps or actions taken or done on behalf of or which ought to have been taken or done on behalf of the Corporation or the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation, order, inquiry, investigation or other matter or thing referred to in Section 12. In no event, shall the Indemnified Parties be responsible to pay any amount in excess of the amount of the Commission actually received by it and the Indemnitor agrees not to seek or claim any such excess amounts pursuant to this Section 12(2). In the event that the Indemnitor may be entitled to contribution from the Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Section 12(2), the Indemnitor shall be limited to contribution in any amount not exceeding the lesser of the portion of the Losses giving rise to such contribution for which the Underwriters are responsible and the amount of the Commission received by the Underwriters.
(3)Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any legal proceeding against an Indemnified Party or after receipt of notice of the commencement of any investigation, which is based, directly or indirectly, upon any matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought from the Indemnitor, the Underwriters will notify the Corporation in writing of the commencement thereof and, throughout the course thereof, will provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnitor, will keep the Indemnitor advised of the progress thereof and will discuss with the Indemnitor all significant actions proposed. The omission to so notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Parties, except to the extent that the failure to so notify materially prejudicially affects the Indemnitor. The Indemnitor shall on behalf of itself and the Indemnified Party, as applicable, be entitled to (but not required to), at its own expense, participate in and assume the defence of any Claim, provided such defence is conducted by legal counsel of good standing acceptable to the Indemnified Party, acting reasonably, and the Indemnitor shall throughout the course thereof provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnified Party, will keep the Indemnified Party advised of all discussions and significant actions proposed in respect thereof. The Indemnified Parties shall also have the right to appoint its or their own separate legal counsel at the Indemnitor’s cost provided the Indemnified Parties act reasonably in selecting such legal counsel.
 42 
 

 

(4)The Indemnitor agrees that in case any legal proceeding shall be brought against the Indemnitor and/or any Indemnified Party by any governmental commission or regulatory authority or any stock exchange or other entity having regulatory authority, either domestic or foreign, or any such authority shall investigate the Indemnitor and/or any Indemnified Party and any Indemnified Parties or their personnel shall be required to testify in connection therewith or shall be required to participate or respond to procedures designed to discover information regarding, in connection with, or by reason of the performance of professional services rendered to the Corporation by the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own legal counsel in connection therewith, provided they act reasonably in selecting such legal counsel, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such legal counsel as well as the reasonable costs (including an amount to reimburse the Indemnified Parties for time spent by them or their personnel in connection therewith at their normal per diem rates together with such disbursements and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties or their personnel in connection therewith) shall be paid by the Indemnitor as they occur.
(5)A party hereunder shall not, without the other party’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or make an admission of liability with respect to any Claims or seek to terminate any Claims in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder. Neither party hereunder shall be liable for any such settlement of any Claim unless it has consented in writing to such settlement, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
(6)The rights accorded to the Indemnified Parties hereunder shall be in addition to any rights an Indemnified Party may have at common law or otherwise.
(7)The Indemnitor agrees to waive any right the Indemnitor may have of first requiring the Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any right, power, remedy, security or claim payment from any other person before claiming under this indemnity. The Indemnitor hereby acknowledges that the Underwriters are acting as trustees for each of the other Indemnified Parties of the Indemnitor’s covenants under this indemnity and the Underwriters agree to accept such trust and to hold and enforce such covenants on behalf of such persons.
 43 
 

 

(8)The indemnity and contribution obligations of the Indemnitor shall be in addition to any liability which the Indemnitor may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to the Indemnified Parties who are not signatories hereto and shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Corporation and the Indemnified Parties.

Section 13 Expenses

Whether or not the purchase and sale of the Subscription Receipts shall be completed, all costs and expenses of or incidental to the sale and delivery of the Subscription Receipts and of or incidental to all matters in connection with the transactions herein shall be borne by the Corporation and payable by the Corporation immediately upon receiving an invoice from the Underwriters, including, without limitation, all expenses of or incidental to the issue, sale or distribution of the Subscription Receipts, the fees and expenses of the Corporation’s legal counsel, auditors and independent experts, all costs incurred in connection with the preparation of documents relating to the Offering, and the reasonable expenses and fees incurred by the Underwriters which shall include the reasonable fees (to a maximum of $150,000 exclusive of disbursements and taxes) and disbursements of the Underwriters’ legal counsel and applicable taxes thereon. At the option of the Underwriters, such fees and expenses may be netted out of the gross proceeds of the Offering otherwise payable to the Corporation on the Closing Date.

Section 14 All Terms to be Conditions

The Corporation agrees that the conditions contained in this Agreement will be complied with insofar as the same relate to acts to be performed or caused to be performed by the Corporation and each of the Corporation and the Underwriters will use its respective reasonable best efforts to cause all such conditions to be complied with. Any material breach or failure to comply with any of the conditions set out in this Agreement that are in the control of the Corporation shall entitle any of the Underwriters to terminate their obligation to purchase the Subscription Receipts, by written notice to that effect given to the Corporation at or prior to the Time of Closing. It is understood that the Underwriters may waive, in whole or in part, or extend the time for compliance with, any of such terms and conditions without prejudice to the rights of the Underwriters in respect of any such terms and conditions or any other or subsequent breach or non-compliance, provided that to be binding on an Underwriter any such waiver or extension must be in writing and signed by such Underwriter.

Section 15 Termination by Underwriters in Certain Events

(1)Each Underwriter shall also be entitled to terminate its obligation to purchase the Subscription Receipts by written notice to that effect given to the Corporation at or prior to the Time of Closing if:
(a)any inquiry, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding whether formal or informal (including matters of regulatory transgression or unlawful conduct) is instituted, announced, threatened, or any order or ruling is made or threatened by any federal, provincial, state, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, court, tribunal, agency, regulatory authority or other instrumentality, including without limitation, the TSX, NASDAQ or any securities regulatory authority involving the Corporation or any of its officers or directors (including those of its Subsidiaries), which, in each case, in the sole reasonable opinion of any Underwriter, operates to prevent, suspend or restrict materially the trading or distribution of the Common Shares of the Corporation or the Subscription Receipts, except for such inquiry, investigation, proceeding or order based solely on the activities of the Underwriters and not the Corporation;
 44 
 

 

(b)there should develop, occur or come into effect or existence any occurrence, event or incident of any nature, including without limitation, accident, natural disaster, act or terrorism, public protest, governmental law or regulation, or major financial occurrence of national or international consequence, which in the reasonable opinion of any Underwriter seriously adversely affects or involves, or may materially adversely affect or involve, the national or international financial markets or the properties, operations, business, affairs, financial condition or assets of the Corporation or any of the Subsidiaries, in aggregate taken as a whole, or the market price or value of the securities of the Corporation;
(c)there is, in the reasonable opinion of any Underwriter, any material change in relation to the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, in aggregate taken as a whole, or any change in any material fact or a new material fact shall arise, or if there should, whether as a result of the Underwriters’ continuing due diligence or otherwise, be discovered any previously undisclosed material fact (including in respect of any of the Subsidiaries), required to be disclosed in the Base Prospectus or the Qualification Prospectus which, in any case, in the sole reasonable opinion of the Underwriters, has or could be expected to have a material adverse effect on the market price or value of the Corporation’s Common Shares;
(d)the Corporation is in material breach of a term, condition or covenant of this Underwriting Agreement, or any material representation or warranty given by the Corporation in this Underwriting Agreement or any ancillary document is false or untrue or has become false or untrue; or
(e)an order to cease trading in the securities of the Corporation is made or threatened by any Securities Commission.
(2)If this Agreement is terminated by any of the Underwriters pursuant to Section 15(1), there shall be no further liability on the part of such Underwriter or of the Corporation to such Underwriter, except in respect of any liability which may have arisen or may thereafter arise under Section 12 and Section 13.
 45 
 

 

(3)The right of the Underwriters or any of them to terminate their respective obligations under this Agreement is in addition to such other remedies as they may have in respect of any default, act or failure to act of the Corporation in respect of any of the matters contemplated by this Agreement. A notice of termination given by one Underwriter under this Section 15 shall not be binding upon the other Underwriters.

Section 16 Obligations of the Underwriters to be Several

(1)Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase the Subscription Receipts shall be several and not joint nor joint and several. The percentage of the Subscription Receipts to be severally purchased and paid for by each of the Underwriters shall be as follows:
Canaccord Genuity Corp. 22.5%
Clarus Securities Inc. 22.5%
Cormark Securities Inc. 12.5%
Laurentian Bank Securities Inc. 12.5%
Dundee Securities Inc. 6.0%
GMP Securities L.P. 6.0%
TD Securities Inc. 6.0%
CIBC World Markets Inc. 6.0%
Scotia Capital Inc. 6.0%
(2)If any of the Underwriters shall not complete the purchase and sale of its applicable percentage of the aggregate amount of the Subscription Receipts at the Time of Closing for any reason whatsoever, including by reason of Section 15 hereof, and the number of Offered Securities with respect to which such default relates is less than 10% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts, the other Underwriters shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to purchase the Subscription Receipts which would otherwise have been purchased by the Underwriter which fails to purchase but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, in the proportions that the number of Offered Securities set forth above opposite their respective names bears to the aggregate number of Offered Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Underwriters with the consent of the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase the Offered Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If any of the Underwriters shall not complete the purchase and sale of its applicable percentage of the aggregate amount of the Subscription Receipts at the Time of Closing for any reason whatsoever, including by reason of Section 15 hereof, and the number of Offered Securities with respect to which such default relates exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts, the other Underwriters shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to purchase the Subscription Receipts which would otherwise have been purchased by the Underwriter which fails to purchase. If, with respect to the Subscription Receipts, the non-defaulting Underwriters elect not to exercise such rights to assume the entire obligations of the defaulting Underwriter, then the Corporation shall have the right to either: (i) proceed with the sale of the Subscription Receipts (less the defaulted shares) to the non-defaulting Underwriters; or (ii) terminate its obligations hereunder without liability except pursuant to the provisions of Section 12 and Section 13 in respect of the non-defaulting Underwriters. For greater certainty, nothing in this Section 16(2) will relieve any defaulting Underwriter from any liability under this Agreement for failure to purchase its proportionate share of Offered Securities otherwise from its default.
 46 
 

 

(3)Additionally, nothing in this Section 16 shall oblige the Corporation to sell to the Underwriters less than all of the Subscription Receipts or shall relieve an Underwriter in default hereunder from liability to the Corporation.

Section 17 TMX Group

The Corporation hereby acknowledges that each of CIBC World Markets Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and TD Securities Inc., or an affiliate thereof, owns or controls an equity interest in TMX Group Limited (“TMX Group”) and has a nominee director serving on the TMX Group’s board of directors. As such, each such investment dealer may be considered to have an economic interest in the listing of securities on any exchange owned or operated by TMX Group, including the TSX, the TSX Venture Exchange and the Alpha Exchange. No person or company is required to obtain products or services from TMX Group or its affiliates as a condition of any such dealer supplying or continuing to supply a product or service.

Section 19 Relationship between the Corporation and the Underwriters.

In connection with the services described herein, the Underwriters shall each act as an independent contractor, and any duties of the Underwriters arising out of this Agreement shall be owed solely to the Corporation. The Corporation acknowledges that the Underwriters are securities firms engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities, as well as providing investment banking and financial advisory services, which may involve services provided to other companies engaged in businesses similar or competitive to the Business of the Corporation. The Corporation acknowledges and agrees that in connection with all aspects of the engagement contemplated hereby, and any communications in connection therewith, the Corporation, on the one hand, and each of the Underwriters and any of their respective affiliates through which the Underwriters may be acting, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Underwriters or such affiliates, and each party hereto agrees that no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. Information which is held elsewhere within the Underwriters, but of which none of the individuals in the investment banking department or division of the Underwriters involved in providing the services contemplated by this agreement actually has knowledge (or without breach of internal procedures can properly obtain) will not for any purpose be taken into account in determining any of the responsibilities of the Underwriters to the Corporation under this Agreement.

Section 20 Miscellaneous

(a)Action of Co-Lead Underwriters. Except with respect to Section 12, Section 15 and Section 16, all transactions and notices on behalf of the Underwriters hereunder or contemplated hereby may be carried out or given on behalf of the Underwriters by a Co-Lead Underwriter, who shall in good faith discuss with the other Co-Lead Underwriters the nature of any such transactions and notices prior to giving effect thereto or the delivery thereof, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall be entitled to and shall act on any notice, waiver, extension or communication given by or on behalf of the Underwriters by the Co-Lead Underwriters, who shall represent the Underwriters, and who shall have the authority to bind the Underwriters in respect of all matters hereunder, except in respect of any settlement under Section 12, any matter referred to in Section 15 or any agreement under Section 16.
(b)Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the Underwriters and the Corporation and their respective successors and legal representatives.
(c)Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.
(d)Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence hereof and, following any waiver or indulgence by any party, time shall again be of the essence hereof.
 50 
 

 

(e)Interpretation. The words, “hereunder”, “hereof” and similar phrases mean and refer to the Agreement formed as a result of the acceptance by the Corporation of this offer by the Underwriters to purchase the Subscription Receipts.
(f)Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Corporation and/or the Underwriters herein contained or contained in documents submitted pursuant to this Agreement and in connection with the transaction of purchase and sale herein contemplated shall survive for a period ending on the date that is three years following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Section 13 shall survive the purchase and sale of the Subscription Receipts and the termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Underwriters or the Corporation, as the case may be, regardless of any subsequent disposition of the Subscription Receipts or any investigation by or on behalf of the Underwriters with respect thereto without limitation other than any limitation requirements of applicable law. The Underwriters and the Corporation shall be entitled to rely on the representations and warranties of the Corporation or the Underwriters, as the case may be, contained herein or delivered pursuant hereto notwithstanding any investigation which the Underwriters or the Corporation may undertake or which may be undertaken on their behalf.
(g)Electronic Copies. Each of the parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on delivery of a facsimile or PDF copy of this Agreement and acceptance by each such party of any such facsimile or PDF copy shall be legally effective to create a valid and binding agreement between the parties hereto in accordance with the terms hereof.
(h)Severability. If one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein.
(i)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
(j)Several and Joint. In performing their respective obligations under this Agreement, the Underwriters shall be acting severally and not jointly and severally. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create any relationship in the nature of a partnership, or joint venture between the Underwriters.
(k)Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the only agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede any and all prior negotiations and understandings in respect of the Offering, including the engagement letter made as of February 19, 2016. This Agreement may be amended or modified in any respect by written instrument only.

 

 

 51 
 

 

(l)Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto shall do or cause to be done all such acts and things and shall execute or cause to be executed all such documents, agreements and other instruments as may reasonably be necessary or desirable for the purpose of carrying out the provisions and intent of this Agreement.

2.It will not offer or sell Subscription Receipts in the United States except that it may offer Subscription Receipts to purchasers who are Accredited Investors with which the Underwriter or the U.S. Placement Agent has a pre-existing relationship and who will purchase the Subscription Receipts as Substituted Purchasers in compliance with Rule 506(b) of Regulation D, in each case in the manner contemplated in this Schedule “A”.
3.It has not entered and will not enter into any contractual arrangement with respect to the distribution of the Subscription Receipts, except with its affiliates, any selling group members or with the prior written consent of the Corporation. It shall require each selling group member to agree in writing, for the benefit of the Corporation, to comply with, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that each selling group member complies with, the same provisions of this Schedule “A” as apply to the Underwriter as if such provisions applied to such selling group member.
4.All of the Underwriter’s offers of Subscription Receipts in the United States have been and will be made through the U.S. Placement Agent pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D.
5.It and its affiliates have not, either directly or through a person acting on its or their behalf, solicited and will not solicit offers for, and have not offered to sell and will not offer to sell, Subscription Receipts in the United States by any form of General Solicitation or General Advertising.
6.Any offer, sale or solicitation of an offer to buy Subscription Receipts that has been made or will be made in the United States by the Underwriter through the U.S. Placement Agent, was or will be made only to Accredited Investors in transactions that are exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws and in accordance with any applicable U.S. federal or state laws or regulations governing the registration or conduct of securities brokers or dealers.
7.Immediately prior to soliciting such offerees, the Underwriter, its affiliates, and any person acting on its or their behalf had reasonable grounds to believe and did believe that each offeree was an Accredited Investor, and at the time of completion of each sale to a person in the United States, the Underwriter, its affiliates, and any person acting on its or their behalf (including the U.S. Placement Agent) will have reasonable grounds to believe and will believe, that each such offeree purchasing Subscription Receipts is an Accredited Investor.
8.The Underwriter represents that neither it, its U.S. Placement Agent, nor any of their respective directors, executive officers, other officers participating in the Offering of Subscription Receipts pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D, their respective general partners or managing members, or any such general partner’s or managing member’s directors, executive officers or other officers participating in such Offering (each, a “Dealer Covered Person” and, together, “Dealer Covered Persons”), is subject to any Disqualification Event except for a Disqualification Event, if any, (a) contemplated by Rule 506(d)(2) of Regulation D, and (b) a description of which has been furnished in writing to the Corporation prior to the date hereof.

Failure to deliver such a certificate shall constitute a representation by the Underwriter and its U.S. Placement Agent that neither it nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered or sold Subscription Receipts in the United States.
13.Neither the Underwriter, its affiliates or any person acting on its behalf (including the U.S. Placement Agent) has taken or will take, directly or indirectly, any action in violation of Regulation M under the U.S. Exchange Act.

A-5

 

3.During the period in which the Subscription Receipts are offered for sale, neither it nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Underwriters, the U.S. Placement Agent, and their respective affiliates or any person acting on their behalf, in respect of which no representation is made) has engaged in or will engage in any Directed Selling Efforts, or has taken or will take any action in violation of Regulation M under the U.S. Exchange Act or that would cause the exemptions afforded by Rule 506(b) of Regulation D to be unavailable for offers and sales of Subscription Receipts in the United States in accordance with this Schedule “B”, or the exclusion from registration afforded by Rule 903 of Regulation S to be unavailable for offers and sales of the Subscription Receipts outside the United States in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement.
4.None of the Corporation, any of its affiliates or any person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Underwriters, the U.S. Placement Agent, their respective affiliates or any person acting on their behalf, in respect of which no representation is made) has offered or will offer to sell, or has solicited or will solicit offers to buy, the Subscription Receipts in the United States by means of any form of General Solicitation or General Advertising or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the U.S. Securities Act.
5.With respect to any Subscription Receipts to be offered and sold hereunder pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D, none of the Corporation, any of its predecessors, any affiliated issuer, any director, executive officer, other officer of the Corporation participating in the Offering, any beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Corporation's outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power, nor any promoter (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act) connected with the Corporation in any capacity at the time of sale (each, a “Company Covered Person” and, together, “Company Covered Persons”) is subject to any Disqualification Event, except for a Disqualification Event covered by subparagraph (d)(2) or (d)(3) of Rule 506 of Regulation D. The Corporation has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Company Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The Corporation has complied, to the extent applicable, with its disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) of Regulation D, and has furnished to the Underwriters a copy of any disclosures provided thereunder.

7.The Corporation will notify the Underwriters in writing, prior to the Closing Date of (a) any Disqualification Event relating to any Company Covered Person and (b) any event that would, with the passage of time, become a Disqualification Event relating to any Company Covered Person.
8.Except with respect to the offer and sale of the Subscription Receipts offered hereby, the Corporation has not, for a period of six months prior to the commencement of the offering of the Subscription Receipts, sold, offered for sale or solicited any offer to buy any of its securities in the United States in a manner that would be integrated with the offer and sale of the Subscription Receipts and would cause the exemptions from registration set forth in Section 4(a)(2) of the U.S. Securities Act or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D to become unavailable with respect to the offer and sale of the Subscription Receipts.
9.The Corporation shall duly prepare and file with the SEC a Form D within 15 days after the first sale of Subscription Receipts in reliance on Rule 506(b) of Regulation D, and will file such notices and other documents as are required to be filed under the state securities or “blue sky” laws of the states in which Subscription Receipts are sold to satisfy the requirements of applicable exemptions from registration or qualification of the Subscription Receipts under such laws.

(c)Release of Escrowed Funds: Upon receipt of the Release Notice, the Subscription Receipt Agent will release the Escrowed Funds in accordance with Section 6.3(a) hereof. The Subscription Receipt Agent will release to the Lead Underwriter 50% of the Underwriters’ Cash Commission and release the balance of the Escrowed Funds to the Corporation (less an amount payable to the Subscription Receipt Agent equal to its reasonable fees for services rendered and disbursements incurred).

Upon the conversion of any Subscription Receipts in accordance with Section 4.1(a), the securities thereby issuable will be issued, and the Person or Persons to whom such securities are to be issued will be the holder or holders of record thereof, at the Release Time unless the transfer registers for the Special Warrants are closed on that date, in which case such Special Warrants will be deemed to have been issued and such Person or Persons will become the holder or holders of record thereof on the date on which such transfer registers are reopened, but such Special Warrants will be issued on the basis of the number of Special Warrants to which such Person or Persons were entitled at the Release Time.

4.3Fractions

Subject to the immediately following sentence, the Corporation shall not be required, upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts or upon any adjustment in accordance with Article 7 hereof, to issue fractions of Special Warrants to any person or to issue certificates which evidence a fractional Special Warrant. To the extent that the Subscription Receiptholder would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction or fractions of a Special Warrant on the conversion of its Subscription Receipts, that Subscription Receiptholder may exercise such right in respect of the fraction or fractions only in combination with its entitlement to a fraction or fractions of a Special Warrant in respect of another Subscription Receipt or Subscription Receipts that in the aggregate entitle the Subscription Receiptholder to receive a whole number of Special Warrants and the Corporation shall issue such whole Special Warrants to the Subscription Receiptholder in respect of those fractions that in the aggregate form whole Special Warrants.

(b)Canadian Legends: The Special Warrants issued upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be subject to the following legend restriction:
    “UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE JULY 2, 2016”.

ARTICLE 7
ADJUSTMENTS

7.1Adjustment of Number of Special Warrants

The Subscription Receipts shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in the following circumstances and manner:

 32 
 

 

(a)Subject to Section 7.2, if and whenever at any time from the Closing and prior to the Release Date, the Corporation shall:
(i)subdivide, redivide or change its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares;
(ii)reduce, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares; or
(iii)issue Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or make a distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares on its outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares;
    then, in each such event, the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted immediately after the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, or the record date for such issue of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or distribution, as the case may be, by multiplying the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts by a fraction:

(A)the numerator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date; and
(B)the denominator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date.

    Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall occur. Any such issue or distribution of Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares shall be deemed to have been made on the record date for such issue or distribution for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under Section 7.1(b) and Section 7.1(c).

(b)Subject to Section 7.2, if and whenever at any time from the Closing and prior to the Release Date, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price on such record date, the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the number determined by multiplying the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts by a fraction:
(i)the numerator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase or into which the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered are convertible or exchangeable; and
 33 
 

 

(ii)the denominator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered) by such Current Market Price.

    Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any Subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be readjusted to the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be.

(c)Subject to Section 7.2, if and whenever at any time from the Closing and prior to the Release Date, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of:
(i)shares of the Company of any class other than Common Shares or other securities of the Corporation;
(ii)rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) or other securities of the Corporation;
(iii)evidences of its indebtedness; or
(iv)any property or other assets;
    (excluding, in each case, any distribution referred to in Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(b)) then, in each such case, the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the number determined by multiplying the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts by a fraction:
(i)the numerator of which will be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price on such record date; and
(ii)the denominator of which will be:
(A)the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price on such record date; less
 34 
 

 

(B)the aggregate fair market value, as determined by the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably, (whose determination, absent manifest error, will be conclusive) and subject to TSX acceptance, to the holders of Common Shares of such shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets so distributed.
    Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any Subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that such distribution is not so made, the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be readjusted to the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect based upon such shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets actually distributed, as the case may be.

(d)Subject to Section 7.2, if and whenever at any time from the Closing and prior to the Release Date, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation (other than as described in Section 7.1(a), Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(c)) or an amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Company with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, any Subscription Receiptholder shall, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of the Subscription Receipts, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Special Warrants to which the Subscription Receiptholder was prior thereto entitled upon any such exercise or deemed exercise, the kind and number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such reclassification, capital reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement or merger or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that such Subscription Receiptholder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, sale or conveyance, if on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Subscription Receiptholder had been the registered holder of the number of Special Warrants to which immediately before the transaction or event he was entitled upon exercise or deemed exercise of the Subscription Receipts. To give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this Section 7.1(d), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, sale or conveyance, enter into an agreement which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set out in this Agreement with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Subscription Receiptholder to the effect that the provisions set out in this Agreement shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be possible, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which a Subscription Receiptholder is entitled on the exercise or deemed exercise of the Subscription Receipts thereafter. Any agreement entered into between the Corporation and the Subscription Receipt Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.1(d) shall be a supplemental agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 10. Any agreement entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity and the Subscription Receipt Agent shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section 7.1 and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, amalgamations, arrangements, mergers, sales or conveyances.
 35 
 

 

(e)In any case in which this Section 7.1 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the holder of any Subscription Receipt in respect of which the Subscription Receipts are deemed to have been exercised after such event, the additional Special Warrants or other securities or property issuable upon such exercise or deemed exercise as the case may be, by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Subscription Receiptholder, as soon as reasonably practicable after such record date, an appropriate instrument evidencing such Subscription Receiptholder’s right to receive such additional Special Warrants or other securities or property upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Special Warrants or other securities or property declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares or securities or property on and after the relevant date of exercise or deemed exercise, as the case may be, or such later date as such Subscription Receiptholder would, but for the provisions of this Section 7.1(e), have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares or other securities or property pursuant to this Section 7.1, provided that if the other securities are not securities of the Corporation, the Corporation will not be liable to any holder should the issuer thereof not pay any distribution declared thereon.
(f)In any case in which Section 7.1(c) requires that an adjustment be made to the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, no such adjustment shall be made if the Subscription Receipt Agent receives the shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property referred to in Section 7.1(c), in such kind and number as Subscription Receiptholders would have received if they had been holders of Common Shares on the applicable record date or effective date, as the case may be, by virtue of their right to be issued Special Warrants upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts. Any such shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property so received by the Subscription Receipt Agent shall be held and distributed by the Subscription Receipt Agent pursuant hereto.
(g)The adjustments provided for in this Section 7.1 are cumulative and shall be computed to the nearest two decimal places and will apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section 7.1, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.1 no adjustment of the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent in the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 7.1(g) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
 36 
 

 

(h)If the Corporation sets a record date to determine the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other action, then no adjustment shall be made to the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts.
(i)After any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.1, the term “Special Warrants” where used in this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean securities of any class or classes which as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 7.1, the Subscription Receiptholder is entitled to receive upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, and the number of Special Warrants to be issued upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be interpreted to mean the number of Special Warrants or other property or securities a Subscription Receiptholder is entitled to receive, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 7.1, upon the full conversion of the Subscription Receipts, as the case may be.
7.2No Adjustment for Stock Options etc.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 7, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Agreement in respect of the issue of Common Shares pursuant to any stock option or stock purchase plan in force from time to time for officers, directors or employees of the Corporation or pursuant to any stock option granted or other convertible security issued by the Corporation prior to the date of this Agreement.

7.3Determination by Corporation’s Auditors

In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided for in this Article 7, such question shall, absent manifest error, be conclusively determined by the Corporation’s auditors, who shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation, and such determination shall, absent manifest error, be binding upon the Corporation, the Agent, the Subscription Receipt Agent, all Subscription Receiptholders and all other persons interested therein.

7.4Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment

As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment in the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, the Corporation shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of Counsel to the Corporation (acting reasonably), be necessary to ensure that the Corporation has sufficient authorized capital and that the Corporation may validly and legally issue, as fully paid and non-assessable shares, all of the shares which the holders of such Subscription Receipts are entitled to receive on the conversion of the Subscription Receipts, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

7.5Action Requiring Adjustment

Subject to TSX approval, in case the Corporation, after the date hereof, shall take any action affecting the Common Shares, other than the actions described in this Article 7, which, in the opinion of the directors of the Corporation would materially adversely affect the rights of the Subscription Receiptholders, then the number of Special Warrants which are to be received upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time as the directors of the Corporation may, in their discretion, reasonably determine to be equitable to the Subscription Receiptholders in such circumstances.

 37 
 

7.6Certificate of Adjustment

The Corporation shall, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in this Article 7, deliver a certificate of the Corporation to the Subscription Receipt Agent specifying the nature of the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the amount of the adjustment or readjustment necessitated thereby and setting out in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based, which certificate shall be supported by a certificate of the Corporation’s auditors verifying such calculation.

7.7Notice of Special Matters

The Corporation covenants with the Subscription Receipt Agent that, so long as any Subscription Receipt remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Subscription Receipt Agent and to the Subscription Receiptholders of its intention to fix the record date for any event referred to in Section 7.1(a), Section 7.1(b), Section 7.1(c) and Section 7.1(d) which may give rise to an adjustment in the number of Special Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts. Such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date for such event, provided that the Corporation shall only be required to specify in the notice such particulars of the event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which the notice is given. The notice shall be given in each case not less than 14 days prior to such applicable record date.

SUBSCRIPTION RECEIPTS

MERUS LABS INTERNATIONAL INC.
(a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia)

THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT, for value received, (the “holder”) is the registered holder of the number of subscription receipts (“Subscription Receipts”) specified above of Merus Labs International Inc. (the “Corporation”) and is thereby entitled, without payment of any additional consideration, to be issued, immediately after the Release Time (as defined in the Subscription Receipt Agreement hereinafter referred to) one Special Warrant of the Corporation in respect of each Subscription Receipt held.

 A-1

This Subscription Receipt Certificate represents Subscription Receipts of the Corporation issued under the provisions of a subscription receipt agreement (which agreement, together with all instruments supplemental or ancillary thereto, is herein referred to as the “Subscription Receipt Agreement”) dated as of March 1, 2016, between the Corporation, Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the “Lead Underwriter”) and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Subscription Receipt Agent”). Reference is hereby made for particulars of the rights of the holders of the Subscription Receipts, the Corporation, the Lead Underwriter and the Subscription Receipt Agent in respect thereof and of the terms and conditions upon which the Subscription Receipts are issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement were herein set forth in full, and to all of which the holder, by acceptance hereof, assents. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Subscription Receipt Certificate and the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement shall govern. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Subscription Receipt Certificate shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Subscription Receipt Agreement. The Corporation will furnish to the holder, on request, a copy of the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

The Subscription Receipts represented by this Subscription Receipt Certificate will automatically convert into Special Warrants by the Subscription Receipt Agent for and on behalf of the holder upon satisfaction of the Release Conditions and the holder will be a holder of the Special Warrants issuable on the conversion of such Subscription Receipts without the taking of any further action by the holder or additional consideration. For greater certainty, the Subscription Receipts represented by this certificate may not be converted by the holder and may only be converted pursuant to the foregoing automatic conversion.

The sale of the Subscription Receipts is being completed in connection with the acquisition of a portfolio of four off-patent, established pharmaceutical products, namely, Surgestone®, Provames®, Speciafoldine® and Tredemine®, from Sanofi S.A. for cash consideration of #eu#22.5 million by the Corporation (the “Transaction”).

Pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the Release Date is the date, or the Business Day following such date, on which the Subscription Receipt Agent receives the Release Notice in the form required under the Subscription Receipt Agreement, which notice will inform the Subscription Receipt Agent of the satisfaction of the Release Conditions, and will advise the Subscription Receipt Agent of the conversion of the Subscription Receipts into Special Warrants and will instruct the Subscription Receipt Agent to pay the Escrowed Funds in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

In the event that (i) the Release Notice is not delivered to the Subscription Receipt Agent prior to the Release Deadline, or (ii) a Termination Notice is delivered to the Subscription Receipt Agent by the Corporation, all of the Subscription Receipts shall, without any action on the part of the holders thereof (including the surrender of Subscription Receipt Certificates), be cancelled by the Subscription Receipt Agent. In such event, the holder will be entitled to receive, and the Subscription Receipt Agent and the Corporation shall pay to the holder, the aggregate amount of $1.90 per Subscription Receipt, all as more particularly set out in the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

The holder of this Subscription Receipt is cautioned that in the event that the Subscription Receipts are deemed to be cancelled, a cheque will be mailed or delivered to the latest address of record of the registered holder.

 A-2

On and after the date of conversion of the Subscription Receipts represented by this Subscription Receipt Certificate, the holder will have no rights hereunder except to the Special Warrants issued to such holder.

No Special Warrants will be issued pursuant to the conversion of any Subscription Receipt if the issue of such security would constitute a violation of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

The Subscription Receipt Agreement contains provisions making binding on all holders of Subscription Receipts outstanding thereunder resolutions passed at meetings of such holders held in accordance with such provisions and instruments in writing signed by holders of a specified majority of all outstanding Subscription Receipts.

The Subscription Receipts represented by this Subscription Receipt Certificate are transferrable.

The holding of this Subscription Receipt Certificate will not constitute the holder a shareholder of the Corporation or entitle such holder to any right or interest in respect thereof except as otherwise provided in the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

This Subscription Receipt Certificate will not be valid for any purpose until it has been certified by or on behalf of the Subscription Receipt Agent for the time being under the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

Time is of the essence hereof.

The signature(s) on this form must be guaranteed in accordance with the transfer agent’s then current guidelines and requirements at the time of transfer. Notarized or witnessed signatures are not acceptable as guaranteed signatures. As at the time of closing, you may choose one of the following methods (although subject to change in accordance with industry practice and standards):

 

 A-6

Canada and the USA: A Medallion Signature Guarantee obtained from a member of an acceptable Medallion Signature Guarantee Program (STAMP, SEMP, NYSE, MSP). Many commercial banks, savings banks, credit unions, and all broker dealers participate in a Medallion Signature Guarantee Program. The Guarantor must affix a stamp bearing the actual words “Medallion Guaranteed”, with the correct prefix covering the face value of the certificate.
Canada: A Signature Guarantee obtained from an authorized officer of the Royal Bank of Canada, Scotia Bank or TD Canada Trust. The Guarantor must affix a stamp bearing the actual words “Signature Guaranteed”, sign and print their full name and alpha numeric signing number. Signature Guarantees are not accepted from Treasury Branches, Credit Unions or Caisse Populaires unless they are members of a Medallion Signature Guarantee Program. For corporate holders, corporate signing resolutions, including certificate of incumbency, are also required to accompany the transfer, unless there is a “Signature & Authority to Sign Guarantee” Stamp affixed to the transfer (as opposed to a “Signature Guaranteed” Stamp) obtained from an authorized officer of the Royal Bank of Canada, Scotia Bank or TD Canada Trust or a Medallion Signature Guarantee with the correct prefix covering the face value of the certificate.
Outside North America: For holders located outside North America, present the certificates(s) and/or document(s) that require a guarantee to a local financial institution that has a corresponding Canadian or American affiliate which is a member of an acceptable Medallion Signature Guarantee Program. The corresponding affiliate will arrange for the signature to be over-guaranteed.

OR

The signature(s) of the transferor(s) must correspond with the name(s) as written upon the face of this certificate(s), in every particular, without alteration or enlargement, or any change whatsoever. The signature(s) on this form must be guaranteed by an authorized officer of Royal Bank of Canada, Scotia Bank or TD Canada Trust whose sample signature(s) are on file with the transfer agent, or by a member of an acceptable Medallion Signature Guarantee Program (STAMP, SEMP, NYSE, MSP). Notarized or witnessed signatures are not acceptable as guaranteed signatures. The Guarantor must affix a stamp bearing the actual words: “SIGNATURE GUARANTEED”, “MEDALLION GUARANTEED” OR “SIGNATURE & AUTHORITY TO SIGN GUARANTEE”, all in accordance with the transfer agent’s then current guidelines and requirements at the time of transfer. For corporate holders, corporate signing resolutions, including certificate of incumbency, will also be required to accompany the transfer unless there is a “SIGNATURE & AUTHORITY TO SIGN GUARANTEE” Stamp affixed to the Form of Transfer obtained from an authorized officer of the Royal Bank of Canada, Scotia Bank or TD Canada Trust or a “MEDALLION GUARANTEED” Stamp affixed to the Form of Transfer, with the correct prefix covering the face value of the certificate.

REASON FOR TRANSFER - FOR US RESIDENTS ONLY

Consistent with US IRS regulations, Computershare is required to request cost basis information from US securityholders. Please indicate the reason for requesting the transfer as well as the date of event relating to the reason. The event date is not the day in which the transfer is finalized, but rather the date of the event which led to the transfer request (i.e. date of gift, date of death of the securityholder, or the date the private sale took place).

TO: MERUS LABS INTERNATIONAL INC.

AND TO: Computershare Trust Company of Canada

The undersigned (A) acknowledges that the sale of the securities ___________________________ (the “Securities”) of the Corporation, represented by certificate number __________________________, to which this declaration relates is being made in reliance on Rule 904 of Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), and (B) certifies that (1) the undersigned is not (a) an "affiliate" of the Corporation (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act) (b) a "distributor" as defined in Regulation S or (c) an affiliate of a distributor; (2) the offer of such securities was not made to a person in the United States and either (a) at the time the buy order was originated, the buyer was outside the United States, or the seller and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believed that the buyer was outside the United States, or (b) the transaction was executed on or through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange and neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the United States; (3) neither the seller nor any affiliate of the seller nor any person acting on their behalf has engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts in the United States in connection with the offer and sale of such securities; (4) the sale is bona fide and not for the purpose of "washing off" the resale restrictions imposed because the securities are “restricted securities” (as that term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.

Affirmation by Seller’s Broker-Dealer
(Required for sales pursuant to Section (B)(2)(b) above)

We have read the foregoing representations of our customer, _________________________ (the "Seller") dated _______________________, with regard to the sale, for such Seller’s account, of the _________________ (the “Securities”) represented by certificate number ______________ of the Corporation described therein. We have executed sales of the Securities pursuant to Rule 904 of Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), on behalf of the Seller. In that connection, we hereby represent to you as follows:

C-1

(1)no offer to sell Securities was made to a person in the United States;
(2)the sale of the Securities was executed in, on or through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange or another designated offshore securities market (as defined in Rule 902(b) of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act), and, to the best of our knowledge, the sale was not pre-arranged with a buyer in the United States;
(3)no “directed selling efforts” were made in the United States by the undersigned, any affiliate of the undersigned, or any person acting on behalf of the undersigned; and
(4)we have done no more than execute the order or orders to sell the Securities as agent for the Seller and will receive no more than the usual and customary broker’s commission that would be received by a person executing such transaction as agent.

For purposes of these representations: “affiliate” means a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the undersigned; “directed selling efforts” means any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for the Shares (including, but not be limited to, the solicitation of offers to purchase the Shares from persons in the United States); and “United States” means the United States of America, its territories or possessions, any State of the United States, and the District of Columbia.

Each Special Warrant Certificate shall be signed by at least one duly authorized signatory of the Corporation, whose signature shall appear on the Special Warrant Certificate and may be printed, lithographed or otherwise mechanically reproduced thereon and, in such event, certificates so signed are as valid and binding upon the Corporation as if it had been signed manually.

(b)The Special Warrant Agent shall Authenticate Uncertificated Special Warrants (whether upon original issuance, exchange, registration of transfer, partial payment or otherwise) by completing its Internal Procedures and the Corporation shall, and hereby acknowledges that it shall, thereupon be deemed to have duly and validly issued such Uncertificated Special Warrants under this Indenture. Such Authentication shall be conclusive evidence that such Uncertificated Special Warrant has been duly issued hereunder and that the holder or holders are entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. The register shall be final and conclusive evidence as to all matters relating to Uncertificated Special Warrants with respect to which this Indenture requires the Special Warrant Agent to maintain records or accounts. In case of differences between the register at any time and any other time the register at the later time shall be controlling, absent manifest error and such Uncertificated Special Warrants are binding on the Corporation.
(c)No Special Warrant shall be considered issued and shall be valid or obligatory or shall entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture until it has been Authenticated by the Special Warrant Agent.
(d)No Special Warrant Certificate shall be considered issued and Authenticated or, if Authenticated, shall be obligatory or shall entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture, until it has been Authenticated by manual signature by or on behalf of the Special Warrant Agent. Such Authentication on any such Special Warrant Certificate shall be conclusive evidence that such Special Warrant Certificate is duly Authenticated and is valid and a binding obligation of the Corporation and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
(e)No Uncertificated Special Warrant shall be considered issued and shall be obligatory or shall entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture, until it has been Authenticated by entry on the register of the particulars of the Uncertificated Special Warrant. Such entry on the register of the particulars of an Uncertificated Special Warrant shall be conclusive evidence that such Uncertificated Special Warrant is a valid and binding obligation of the Corporation and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
(f)The Authentication by the Special Warrant Agent of any Special Warrants whether by way of entry on the register or otherwise shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Special Warrant Agent as to the validity of the Indenture or such Special Warrants (except the due Authentication thereof) or as to the performance by the Corporation of its obligations under this Indenture and the Special Warrant Agent shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of the Special Warrants or any of them or the proceeds thereof. Authentication by the Special Warrant Agent shall be conclusive evidence as against the Corporation that the Special Warrants so Authenticated have been duly issued hereunder and that the holder thereof is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
- 12 -
 
(g)Each CDS Global Warrant originally issued in Canada and held by the Depository, and each CDS Global Warrant issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof shall bear or be deemed to bear the following legend or such variations thereof as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time:

“UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS CLEARING AND DEPOSITORY SERVICES INC. (“CDS”) TO MERUS LABS INTERNATIONAL INC. (THE “ISSUER”) OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IN RESPECT THEREOF IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CDS, OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CDS OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF CDS), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF, CDS, HAS A PROPERTY INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HEREIN AND IT IS A VIOLATION OF ITS RIGHTS FOR ANOTHER PERSON TO HOLD, TRANSFER OR DEAL WITH THIS CERTIFICATE.”

2.5Transferability and Ownership of Special Warrants
(a)The Corporation hereby appoints the Special Warrant Agent as registrar of the Special Warrants and shall cause the Special Warrant Agent to keep at its Toronto and Vancouver office set forth in Section 9.1(b) a register in which the Special Warrant Agent shall enter the names and addresses of the Special Warrantholders, and the number of Special Warrants, and other particulars, prescribed by law, of the Special Warrants held by them, together with a record of transfers in which particulars of all transfers of Special Warrants will be recorded. The Special Warrant Agent shall cause the register to be open at all reasonable times for inspection by the Corporation, the Underwriters and any Special Warrantholder and upon payment to the Special Warrant Agent of its reasonable fees. Any Special Warrantholder exercising such right of inspection shall first provide an affidavit in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent stating the name and address of the Special Warrantholder and agreeing not to use the information therein except in connection with (i) an effort to call a meeting of Special Warrantholders or to influence the voting of Special Warrantholders at any meeting of Special Warrantholders; (ii) an offer to acquire securities of the Corporation or (iii) any other matter relating to the affairs of the Corporation.
(b)Once an Uncertificated Special Warrant has been Authenticated, the information set forth in the register with respect thereto at the time of Authentication may be altered, modified, amended, supplemented or otherwise changed only to reflect exercise or proper instructions to the Special Warrant Agent from the holder as provided herein, except that the Special Warrant Agent may act unilaterally to make purely administrative changes internal to the Special Warrant Agent and changes to correct errors. Each person who becomes a holder of an Uncertificated Special Warrant, by his, her or its acquisition thereof shall be deemed to have irrevocably (i) consented to the foregoing authority of the Special Warrant Agent to make such minor error corrections and (ii) agreed to pay to the Special Warrant Agent, promptly upon written demand, the full amount of all loss and expense (including without limitation reasonable legal fees of the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent plus interest, at an appropriate then prevailing rate of interest to the Special Warrant Agent), sustained by the Corporation or the Special Warrant Agent as a proximate result of such error if but only if and only to the extent that such present or former holder realized any benefit as a result of such error and could reasonably have prevented, forestalled or minimized such loss and expense by prompt reporting of the error or avoidance of accepting benefits thereof whether or not such error is or should have been timely detected and corrected by the Special Warrant Agent; provided, that no person who is a bona fide purchaser shall have any such obligation to the Corporation or to the Special Warrant Agent.

(c)The Special Warrant Certificates may only be transferred by the Special Warrantholder (or its legal representatives or its attorney duly appointed), in accordance with Applicable Legislation and upon compliance with the conditions herein, on the register kept at the office of the Special Warrant Agent pursuant to Section 2.5(a) by delivering to the Special Warrant Agent’s Toronto or Vancouver office a duly executed Form of Transfer attached as Appendix “2” to the Special Warrant Certificate and complying with such other reasonable requirements as the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent may prescribe and such transfer shall be duly noted on the register by the Special Warrant Agent. In the case of Uncertificated Special Warrants the Special Warrants may only be transferred, in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary under its book entry registration system. All other transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests in CDS Global Warrants to another CDS Global Warrant, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Special Warrant Agent either (A) (1) a written order and Appendix “2” from a Participant or a beneficial holder, in each case, given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another CDS Global Warrant in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged, and (2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase. If any beneficial interest in a CDS Global Warrant is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another CDS Global Warrant, the principal amount of Special Warrants represented by such CDS Global Warrant shall be reduced accordingly by the Special Warrant Agent or by the Depositary under its book entry registration system pursuant to Applicable Procedures to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another CDS Global Warrant such other CDS Global Warrant shall be increased accordingly in accordance with Applicable Procedures by the Trustee or by the Depositary under its book entry registration system to reflect such increase at the direction of the Corporation upon satisfaction of all requirements for transfer or exchange in beneficial interest in CDS Global Warrants contained in this Indenture or otherwise applicable under the 1933 Act.

(d)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture, in the Special Warrant Certificate or in any subscription agreements under which Special Warrants were issued and sold, the Special Warrant Agent, relying solely on the Form of Transfer or such other reasonable requirements as the Corporation and Special Warrant Agent may prescribe pursuant to Section 2.5(b) or this Section shall not register any transfer of a Special Warrant unless the transfer is made in compliance with this Section.
(e)The Special Warrant Agent acknowledges and understands that the Special Warrants have not been registered under the 1933 Act or under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state of the United States. A holder of Special Warrants bearing the legend set forth in section 5.9(c) may only offer, sell, or otherwise transfer such securities (A) to the Corporation, or (B) outside the United States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the 1933 Act, and in each case in compliance with applicable local laws and regulations, pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A thereunder, if available, and in accordance with Applicable State Securities Laws of the United States, or in another transaction that does not require registration under the U.S. Securities Act or any Applicable State Securities Laws of the United States. If a Special Warrant certificate not bearing the legend stated in section 5.9(c) is tendered for transfer to a U.S. Person or a person in the United States, the Special Warrant Agent shall not register such transfer, unless (i) a legal opinion is provided confirming that the transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and (ii) the certificate representing the Special Warrants issued to the transferee is endorsed with the U.S. restrictive legend stated in Section 5.9(c).
(f)The Corporation shall direct the Special Warrant Agent as to matters related to the applicable hold periods and applicable securities legislation. The Special Warrant Agent shall have no obligation to ensure or verify compliance with any Applicable Legislation or regulatory requirements on the issue, exercise or transfer of any Special Warrants or any Underlying Securities or other securities issuable upon the exercise of any Special Warrants. The Special Warrant Agent shall be entitled to process all proffered transfers and exercises of Special Warrants upon the presumption that such transfers or exercises are permissible pursuant to all Applicable Legislation and regulatory requirements and the terms of this Indenture. The Special Warrant Agent may assume for the purposes of this Indenture that the address on the register of Special Warrantholders of any Special Warrantholder is the Special Warrantholder’s actual address and is also determinative of the Special Warrantholder’s residency and that the address of any transferee to whom any Special Warrants or any Underlying Securities are to be registered, as shown on the transfer document, is the transferee’s actual address and is also determinative of the transferee’s residency.

 

- 15 -
 

(g)Upon any transfer of Special Warrants in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Corporation shall covenant and agree with the Special Warrant Agent, on behalf of the transferee holder and with the transferee holder, that the transferee holder is a permitted assignee of the transferring holder and is entitled to the benefits of the covenant of the Corporation set forth in Section 3.17 herein and to be set forth under the heading “Contractual Right of Rescission” in the Prospectus Supplement subject, in each case, to the restrictions and limitations described thereunder. Should a holder of Special Warrants exercise any legal, statutory, contractual or other right of withdrawal or rescission that may be available to it, the Special Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for ensuring the Special Warrants or the exercise of Special Warrants is cancelled and a refund of the holder’s funds is paid back to the holder. In such cases, the holder shall seek a refund directly from the Corporation and subsequently, the Corporation shall instruct the Special Warrant Agent in writing, to cancel the Special Warrants or exercise transaction and any Underlying Securities on the register, which may have already been issued upon the Special Warrant exercise.
(h)A person who furnishes evidence that he is, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Special Warrant Agent:
(i)the executor, administrator, heir or legal representative of the heirs of the estate of a deceased Special Warrantholder;
(ii)a guardian, committee, trustee, curator or tutor representing a Special Warrantholder who is an infant, an incompetent person or a missing person; or
(iii)a liquidator or a trustee in bankruptcy for a Special Warrantholder,

may, as hereinafter stated, by surrendering such evidence together with the Special Warrant Certificate in question to the Special Warrant Agent (by delivery or mail as set forth in Section 9.1 hereof), and subject to such reasonable requirements as the Special Warrant Agent may prescribe and all applicable securities legislation and requirements of regulatory authorities, become noted upon the register of Special Warrantholders. After receiving the surrendered Special Warrant Certificate and upon the person surrendering the Special Warrant Certificate meeting the requirements as hereinbefore set forth, the Special Warrant Agent shall forthwith give written notice thereof together with confirmation as to the identity of the person entitled to become the holder to the Corporation. Forthwith after receiving written notice from the Special Warrant Agent as aforesaid, the Corporation shall cause a new Special Warrant Certificate to be issued and sent to the new holder and the Special Warrant Agent shall alter the register of holders accordingly.

- 16 -
 

 

(i)The Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent shall deem and treat the registered holder of any Special Warrant as the absolute legal and beneficial owner thereof for all purposes, free from all equities or rights of set off or counterclaim between the Corporation and any previous holder of such Special Warrant, save in respect of equities of which the Corporation is required to take notice by statute or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, and neither the Corporation nor the Special Warrant Agent is affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

(j)Subject to the provisions of this Indenture and Applicable Legislation, each Special Warrantholder is entitled to the rights and privileges attaching to the Special Warrants, and the issue of the Underlying Securities by the Corporation on exercise of Special Warrants by any Special Warrantholder in accordance with the terms and conditions herein contained discharges all responsibilities of the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent with respect to such Special Warrants and neither the Corporation nor the Special Warrant Agent is bound to inquire into the title of any such registered holder.
(k)A reasonable charge will be levied on a presenter of a Special Warrant Certificate pursuant to this Indenture for the transfer of any Special Warrant. Either the Special Warrantholder or the Corporation will assume this charge.
(l)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.5, in connection with any transfer of Special Warrants, the transferor and transferee shall comply with all reasonable requirements of the Special Warrant Agent as the Special Warrant Agent may deem necessary to secure the obligations of the transferee of such Special Warrants with respect to such transfer.
2.6Special Warrantholders Not Shareholders

A Special Warrantholder is not deemed or regarded as a shareholder of the Corporation nor is such Special Warrantholder entitled to any right or interest except as is expressly provided in this Indenture and on the Special Warrant Certificates.

2.7Signing of Special Warrants

Any one director or officer of the Corporation shall sign a Special Warrant Certificate either manually or by facsimile signature. A facsimile signature upon any Special Warrant Certificate is, for all purposes hereof, deemed to be the signature of the person whose signature it purports to be and to have been signed at the time such facsimile signature is reproduced. If a person whose signature, either manually or in facsimile, appears on a Special Warrant Certificate is not a director or officer of the Corporation at the date of this Indenture or at the date of the countersigning and delivery of such Special Warrant Certificate, such fact does not affect in any way the validity of the Special Warrants or the entitlement of the Special Warrantholder to the benefits of this Indenture or of the Special Warrant Certificate.

- 17 -
 

 

2.8Countersigning

The Special Warrant Agent shall countersign Special Warrant Certificates and Authenticate Uncertificated Special Warrants upon the written direction of the Corporation. No Special Warrant Certificate shall be issued, or if issued, is valid or exercisable or entitles the holder thereof to the benefits of this Indenture until the Special Warrant Certificate has been manually countersigned by the Special Warrant Agent or the Uncertificated Special Warrant has been Authenticated by the Special Warrant Agent, as the case may be. The countersignature or Authentication by or on behalf of the Special Warrant Agent will be conclusive evidence as against the Corporation that the Special Warrant Certificate so countersigned or Uncertificated Special Warrant so Authenticated has been duly issued hereunder and that the holder is entitled to the benefit hereof. The countersignature by or on behalf of the Special Warrant Agent on any Special Warrant Certificate or the Authentication of any Uncertificated Special Warrant by or on behalf of the Special Warrant Agent is not to be construed as a representation or warranty by the Special Warrant Agent as to the validity of this Indenture or of the Special Warrants or as to the performance by the Corporation of its obligations under this Indenture and the Special Warrant Agent is in no way liable or answerable for the use made of the Special Warrants or the proceeds from the issuance thereof, except as specified by this Indenture. The countersignature or Authentication, as the case may be, by or on behalf of the Special Warrant Agent is only a representation and warranty of the Special Warrant Agent that the Special Warrant Certificate has been duly countersigned by or on behalf of the Special Warrant Agent or the Uncertificated Special Warrant has been duly Authenticated by or on behalf of the Special Warrant Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture.

2.9Loss, Mutilation, Destruction or Theft of Special Warrants

In case any of the Special Warrant Certificates issued and countersigned hereunder is mutilated or lost, destroyed or stolen, the Corporation, in its discretion, may issue and thereupon the Special Warrant Agent will countersign and deliver a new Special Warrant Certificate of like date and tenor in exchange for and in place of the one mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen and upon surrender and cancellation of such mutilated Special Warrant Certificate or in lieu of and in substitution for such lost, destroyed or stolen Special Warrant Certificate and the substituted Special Warrant Certificate entitles the holder thereof to the benefits hereof and ranks equally in accordance with its terms with all other Special Warrants issued hereunder.

The Special Warrantholder applying for the issue of a new Special Warrant Certificate pursuant to this Section shall bear the cost of the issue thereof and in case of loss, destruction or theft shall, as a condition precedent to the issue thereof, furnish to the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent such evidence of ownership and of the loss, destruction or theft of the Special Warrant Certificate so lost, destroyed or stolen as is satisfactory to the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent in their discretion. The Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent may also, as a condition precedent to issuing a new Special Warrant Certificate, require such applicant to furnish an indemnity and surety bond in amount and form satisfactory to the Corporation and Special Warrant Agent in their discretion, and the applicant shall pay the reasonable charges of the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent in connection therewith.

- 18 -
 

 

2.10Exchange of Special Warrants

A Special Warrantholder may at any time prior to the Deemed Exercise Time, by written instruction delivered to the Special Warrant Agent at the office of the Special Warrant Agent set forth in Section 9.1, exchange his Special Warrant Certificates for Special Warrant Certificates evidencing Special Warrants in other denominations entitling the Special Warrantholder to acquire in the aggregate the same number of Underlying Securities to which it was entitled to acquire under the Special Warrant Certificates so surrendered, in which case the Special Warrant Agent may make a charge sufficient to reimburse it for any government fees or charges required to be paid and such reasonable fees as the Special Warrant Agent may determine for every Special Warrant Certificate issued upon exchange. The Special Warrantholder surrendering such Special Warrant Certificate shall bear such fee and charge. Payment of the charges is a condition precedent to the exchange of the Special Warrant Certificate. The Corporation shall sign and the Special Warrant Agent shall countersign all Special Warrant Certificates necessary to carry out exchanges as aforesaid.

Special Warrant Certificates exchanged for Special Warrant Certificates that bear the legends set forth in section 5.9 shall bear the same legend.

2.11Ranking

All Special Warrants will have the same attributes and rank pari passu regardless of the date of actual issue.

2.12Purchase of Special Warrants for Cancellation

Subject to Applicable Legislation, the Corporation may, at any time or from time to time, purchase all or any of the Special Warrants in the market, by private contract or otherwise, on such terms as the Corporation may determine. Any such purchase shall be made at the lowest price or prices at which, in the opinion of the directors, such Special Warrants are then obtainable plus reasonable costs of purchase. The Special Warrant Certificates representing the Special Warrants purchased hereunder by the Corporation shall, immediately following purchase, be delivered to and cancelled by the Special Warrant Agent and no Special Warrants shall be issued in substitution therefor. In the case of Uncertificated Warrants, the Special Warrants purchased pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be reflected accordingly on the register of the Special Warrants and in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Depository under the book entry registration system. No Special Warrants shall be issued in replacement thereof.

2.13Cancellation of Surrendered Special Warrants

All Special Warrants Certificates surrendered pursuant to Article 5 shall be cancelled by the Special Warrant Agent and upon such circumstances all such Uncertificated Warrants shall be deemed cancelled and so noted on the register by the Special Warrant Agent.

3.14Notice to Special Warrantholders of Certain Events

The Corporation covenants with the Special Warrant Agent for the benefit of the Special Warrant Agent and the Special Warrantholders that, so long as any of the Special Warrants are outstanding, it will not:

(a)pay any dividend payable in shares of any class to the holders of its Common Shares or make any other distribution (other than a cash distribution made as a dividend out of retained earnings or contributed surplus legally available for the payment of dividends) to the holders of its Common Shares;
(b)offer to the holders of its Common Shares rights to subscribe for or to purchase any Common Shares or shares of any class or any other securities, rights, warrants or options;
(c)make any repayment of capital on, or distribution of evidences of indebtedness on, any of its assets (excluding cash dividends) to the holders of Common Shares;
(d)amalgamate, consolidate or merge with any other person or sell or lease the whole or substantially the whole of its assets or undertaking;
(e)effect any subdivision, consolidation or reclassification of its Common Shares; or
(f)liquidate, dissolve or wind-up,

unless, in each such case, the Corporation will have given notice, in the manner specified in Section 9.2, to each Special Warrantholder, of the action proposed to be taken and the date on which (a) the books of the Corporation will close or a record will be taken for such dividend, repayment, distribution, subscription rights or other rights, warrants or securities, or (b) such subdivision, consolidation, reclassification, amalgamation, merger, sale or lease, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up will take place, as the case may be, provided that the Corporation will only be required to specify in the notice those particulars of the action as will have been fixed and determined at the date on which the notice is given. The notice will also specify the date as of which the holders of Common Shares of record will participate in the dividend, repayment, distribution, subscription of rights or other rights, warrants or securities, or will be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, amalgamation, merger, sale or lease, other disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be. The notice will be given, with respect to the actions described in Sections (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) above not less than two Business Days prior to the record date or the date on which the Corporation’s transfer books are to be closed with respect thereto.

- 23 -
 

 

3.15Closure of Share Transfer Books

The Corporation further covenants and agrees that it will not during the period of any notice given under Section 9.1 close its share transfer books or take any other corporate action which might deprive the Special Warrantholders of the opportunity of exercising their Special Warrants; provided that nothing contained in this Section 3.15 will be deemed to affect the right of the Corporation to do or take part in any of the things referred to in Section 3.14 or to pay cash dividends on the shares of any class or classes in its capital from time to time outstanding.

3.16Payment of Commissions

The Corporation will not pay or give any commission or other remuneration within the meaning of Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act to any person, directly or indirectly, for soliciting the exercise of the Special Warrants.

3.17Contractual Right of Rescission

The Corporation covenants with the Special Warrant Agent to provide a right of rescission to each Special Warrantholder as hereinafter set forth, which right shall be exercisable by a Special Warrantholder directly.

The Corporation has agreed that in the event that a holder of a Special Warrant who acquires Underlying Securities upon exercise of the Special Warrants is or becomes entitled under applicable Securities Laws to the remedy of rescission by reason of a misrepresentation in the Prospectus Supplement filed by the Corporation in connection herewith or any amendment, qualifying the distribution of the Underlying Securities to be issued on exercise of the Special Warrants in the Designated Provinces, such holder shall be entitled, subject to available defences and any limitation period under applicable Securities Laws, to rescission not only of the holder’s exercise of its Special Warrants but also of the private placement transaction pursuant to which the Special Warrants were initially acquired (i.e. the Private Placement), and shall be entitled in connection with such rescission to a full refund of all consideration paid to the Corporation on the acquisition of the Special Warrants. In the event that such holder is a permitted assignee of the interest of the original purchaser of the Special Warrants, such permitted assignee shall be permitted to exercise the rights of rescission and refund granted hereunder as if such permitted assignee was such original purchaser. The foregoing right, which is extended by the Corporation in respect of the Special Warrants issued by the Corporation pursuant to accepted subscriptions at the Closing Time, is in addition to any other right or remedy available to a holder of Special Warrants under applicable Securities Laws, or otherwise at law, and is subject to the defences and limitations described under such Securities Laws.

- 24 -
 

 

Should a holder of Special Warrants exercise any legal, statutory, contractual or other right of withdrawal or rescission that may be available to it, and the holder’s funds which were paid on exercise have already been released to the Corporation by the Special Warrant Agent, the Special Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for ensuring the exercise is cancelled and a refund is paid back to the holder. In such cases, the holder shall seek a refund directly from the Corporation and subsequently, the Corporation, upon surrender to the Corporation or the Special Warrant Agent of any underlying shares that may have been issued, or such other procedure as agreed to by the parties hereto, shall instruct the Special Warrant Agent in writing, to cancel the exercise transaction and any such underlying shares on the register, which may have already been issued upon the Special Warrant exercise. The Special Warrant Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any steps to ensure or enforce that the funds are returned pursuant to this section, nor shall the Special Warrant Agent be in any other way responsible in the event that any payment is not delivered or received pursuant to this section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Corporation provides the refund to the Special Warrant Agent for distribution to the holder, the Special Warrant Agent shall return such funds to the holder as soon as reasonably practicable, and in so doing, the Special Warrant Agent shall incur no liability with respect to the delivery or non-delivery of any such funds.

Article 4
ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF Underlying Securities

4.1Adjustment of Number of Underlying Securities

The rights to acquire Underlying Securities in effect at any date attaching to the Special Warrants are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a)if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Deemed Exercise Time, the Corporation:
(i)subdivides, re-divides or changes its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares;
(ii)consolidates, reduces or combines its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares; or
(iii)issues Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible to Common Shares (“Convertible Securities”) to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a stock dividend (other than the issue of Common Shares or Convertible Securities to such holders as Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course);

(any of the above being a “Common Share Reorganization”), the number of Underlying Securities issuable upon the exercise of each Special Warrant is adjusted immediately after the effective date of the Common Share Reorganization or on the record date for the issue of Common Shares or Convertible Securities by way of stock dividend, by multiplying the number of Underlying Securities previously obtainable on the exercise of a Special Warrant by the fraction of which:

- 25 -
 

 

(A)the numerator is the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after the effective or record date of the Common Share Reorganization, or, in the case of the issuance of exchangeable or Convertible Securities, the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after the effective or record date of the Common Share Reorganization plus the total number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities; and
(B)the denominator is the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the applicable effective or record date of such Common Share Reorganization;

and the Corporation and Special Warrant Agent, upon receipt of notice pursuant to Section 4.3, shall make such adjustment successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 4.1(a) occurs and any such issue of Common Shares or Convertible Securities by way of a stock dividend is deemed to have occurred on the record date for the stock dividend for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under this Section 4.1(a). To the extent that any Convertible Securities are not converted into or exchanged for Common Shares, prior to the expiration thereof, the number of Underlying Securities obtainable under each Special Warrant shall be readjusted to the number of Underlying Securities that is then obtainable based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued on conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities;

(b)if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Deemed Exercise Time the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 calendar days after the record date for such issue (“Rights Period”), to subscribe for or acquire Common Shares at a price per share to the holder of less than 95% of the Current Market Price for the Common Shares on such record date (any such issuance being herein called a “Rights Offering), then the number of Underlying Securities obtainable upon the exercise of each Special Warrant shall be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a number determined by multiplying the number of Underlying Securities obtainable upon the exercise thereof immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction:
(i)the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering and including the number of Common Shares actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering; and
- 26 -
 
(ii)the denominator of which shall be the aggregate of:
(A)the number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering, and
(B)a number determined by dividing (1) the product of the number of Common Shares issued or subscribed during the Rights Period upon the exercise of the rights, warrants, or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such Common Shares are offered by (2) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering;

Any offered securities owned by or held for the account of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any computation. If all the rights, options or warrants are not so issued or if all rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the number of Underlying Securities obtainable under each Special Warrant Exchange shall be readjusted to the number of Underlying Securities obtainable in effect immediately prior to the record date and such number shall be further adjusted based upon the number of offered securities (or rights, options or warrants into Common Shares) actually delivered upon the exercise of the rights, options or warrants, as the case may be, but subject to any other adjustment required hereunder by reason of any event arising after that record date;

(c)if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Deemed Exercise Time the Corporation shall issue or distribute to all or to substantially all of the holders of the Common Shares:
(i)securities of the Corporation including rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of any class or securities exchangeable for or convertible into or exchangeable into any such shares or property or assets and including evidence of its indebtedness; or
(ii)any property (including cash) or other assets,

and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course, a Common Share Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “Special Distribution”), the number of Underlying Securities obtainable upon the exercise of each Special Warrant shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date at which the holders of affected Common Shares are determined for purposes of the Special Distribution to a number determined by multiplying the number of Underlying Securities obtainable upon the exercise thereof in effect on such record date by a fraction:

(A)the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; and
- 27 -
 
(B)the denominator of which shall be:
(1)the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date, less
(2)the fair market value on such record date, as determined by action by the directors (whose determination shall be conclusive), subject to TSX acceptance, to the holders of the Common Shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution;

Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any computation. If the distribution of shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets is not so made or to the extent that any rights, options or warrants so distributed are not exercised, the number of Underlying Securities obtainable under each Special Warrant Exchange shall be readjusted to the number of Underlying Securities obtainable in effect immediately prior to the record date and such number shall be further adjusted based upon the number of shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed or based upon the number of Common Shares or Convertible Securities actually delivered upon the exercise of the rights, options or warrants, as the case may be, but subject to any other adjustment required hereunder by reason of any event arising after that record date;

(d)if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Deemed Exercise Time there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a change in the Common Shares into other shares or securities, or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 4.1(a) or the triggering of a shareholders’ rights plan or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a transfer, sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, any of such events being referred to as a “Capital Reorganization”, every Special Warrantholder who has not exercised its right of acquisition, as at the effective date of such Capital Reorganization is entitled to receive upon exercise in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Underlying Securities obtainable under the Special Warrants to which it was previously entitled, the kind and number of Underlying Securities or other securities or property of the Corporation that the Special Warrantholder would have been entitled to receive on such Capital Reorganization if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Special Warrantholder had been the registered holder of the number of Underlying Securities obtainable upon the exercise of Special Warrants then held, subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions of the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those contained in this Section 4.1. The Corporation shall not carry into effect any action requiring an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.1(d) unless all necessary steps have been taken so that the Special Warrantholders are thereafter entitled to receive such kind and number of Underlying Securities, other securities or property. The Corporation will not enter into a Capital Reorganization unless its successor, or the purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, prior to or contemporaneously with any such Capital Reorganization, enters into an indenture which provides, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Indenture with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Special Warrantholders to the end that the provisions set forth in this Indenture are correspondingly made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which a Special Warrantholder is entitled on the exercise of his acquisition rights thereafter. An indenture entered into by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.1(d) is deemed a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 7. An indenture entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or any purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity and the Special Warrant Agent must provide for adjustments which are as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section 4.1 and which apply to successive Capital Reorganizations;

 

- 28 -
 
(e)where this Section 4.1 requires that an adjustment becomes effective immediately after a record date or effective date, as the case may be, for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of that event, issuing to the Special Warrantholder exercising his acquisition rights after the record date or effective date, as the case may be and before the occurrence of that event the adjusted number of Underlying Securities, other securities or property issuable upon the exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants by reason of the adjustment required by that event. If the Corporation relies on this Section 4.1(e) to defer issuing an adjusted number of Underlying Securities, other securities or property to a Special Warrantholder, the Special Warrantholder has the right to receive any distributions made on the adjusted number of Underlying Securities, other securities or property declared in favour of holders of record on and after the date of exercise or such later date as the Special Warrantholder would but for the provisions of this Section 4.1(e), have become the holder of record of the adjusted number of Underlying Securities, other securities or property;
(f)the adjustments provided for in this Section 4.1 are cumulative. After any adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.1, the term “Underlying Securities” where used in this Indenture is interpreted to mean securities of any class or classes which, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section, the Special Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon the exercise of his Special Warrant, and the number of Underlying Securities obtainable in any exercise made pursuant to a Special Warrant is interpreted to mean the number of Underlying Securities or other property or securities a Special Warrantholder is entitled to receive, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 4.1, upon the full exercise of a Special Warrant;
- 29 -
 
(g)notwithstanding anything in this Article 4, no adjustment shall be made in the acquisition rights attached to the Special Warrants if the issue of Common Shares is being made pursuant to any stock option or stock purchase plan in force from time to time for directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Corporation;
(h)in the event of a question arising with respect to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4.1, that question shall be conclusively determined by the Corporation’s auditors or if they are unwilling or unable to act, such independent naturally recognized chartered accountants as may be selected by the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably, who shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation, and a determination by the Corporation’s auditors is binding upon the Corporation, the Special Warrant Agent, all Special Warrantholders and all other persons interested therein; and
(i)no adjustment in the number of Underlying Securities obtainable upon exercise of Special Warrants shall be made in respect of any event described in this Section 4.1, other than the events referred in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section (b) thereof, if the Special Warrantholders are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Special Warrantholders had exercised their Special Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event.

 

4.2Proceedings Prior to any Action Requiring Adjustment

As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which requires an adjustment in any of the acquisition rights pursuant to the Special Warrants, including the number of Underlying Securities obtainable upon the exercise or deemed exercise thereof, the Corporation shall take any corporate action which may in its opinion be necessary in order that the Corporation or any successor to the Corporation has reserved, allotted and set aside for issuance Common Shares in its authorized capital and may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all the Underlying Securities and may validly and legally deliver all other securities or property which the Special Warrantholders are entitled to receive on the full exercise of the Special Warrants in accordance with the provisions hereof.

4.3Action Requring Adjustment

Subject to TSX approval, in case the Corporation, after the date hereof, shall take any action affecting the Common Shares, other than the actions described in this Article 4, which, in the opinion of the directors of the Corporation would materially adversely affect the rights of the Special Warrantholders, then the number of Common Shares which are to be received upon the conversion of the Special Warrants shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time as the directors of the Corporation may, in their discretion, reasonably determine to be equitable to the Special Warrantholders in such circumstances.

- 30 -
 

 

4.4Certificate of Adjustment

The Corporation shall from time to time immediately, but in any event within three Business Days after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment as provided in Section 4.1, deliver a written notice to the Special Warrantholders and the Special Warrant Agent specifying the nature of the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment necessitated thereby, and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which the calculation is based.

4.5No Action After Notice

The Corporation covenants with the Special Warrant Agent that it will not close its transfer books or take any other corporate action which might deprive the holder of a Special Warrant of the opportunity of exercising the Special Warrant during the period of 14 calendar days after giving of the notice set forth in Section 4.3 hereof and 4.7 hereof.

4.6Protection of Special Warrant Agent

The Special Warrant Agent:

(a)is entitled to act and rely, and shall be protected in so doing, on any adjustment calculation of the Corporation or the Corporation auditors and any other documents filed by the Corporation pursuant to this Article 4 for all purposes;
(b)is not at any time under any duty or responsibility to a Special Warrantholder to determine whether any facts exist which require any adjustment contemplated by Section 4.1, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same;
(c)is not accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares or other securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of the rights attaching to any Special Warrant;
(d)is not responsible for any failure of the Corporation to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver certificates for the Underlying Securities upon the surrender of any Special Warrants for the purpose of the exercise of such rights or to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Article 4; and
(e)shall not incur any liability or responsibility whatsoever or be in any way responsible for the consequence of any breach on the part of the Corporation of any of the representations, warranties or covenants herein contained or of any acts of the agents or servants of the Corporation.
4.7Notice of Special Matters

The Corporation covenants with the Special Warrant Agent that so long as any Special Warrants remain outstanding it will give seven calendar days’ prior written notice in the manner provided for in Article 9 to the Special Warrant Agent, each Special Warrantholder and to the Underwriters of any event which requires an adjustment to the subscription rights attaching to any of the Special Warrants pursuant to this Article 4. The Corporation covenants and agrees that such notice shall contain the particulars of such event in reasonable detail and, if determinable, the required adjustment in the manner provided for in Article 9. The Corporation further covenants and agrees that it shall promptly, as soon as the adjustment calculations are reasonably determinable, file a certificate of the Corporation with the Special Warrant Agent, on which the Special Warrant Agent may act and rely, showing how such adjustment shall be computed.

Article 5
EXERCISE AND CANCELLATION OF SPECIAL WARRANTS

5.1Notice of Deemed Exercise to Special Warrantholders

Upon receipt of written notice from the Corporation in accordance with Section 3.7, the Special Warrant Agent shall give written notice, in the form to be provided by the Corporation to the Special Warrant Agent, to each holder of a Special Warrant (in the form to be provided by the Corporation to the Special Warrant Agent) concurrently with delivery of the certificates or other evidence of ownership representing the Underlying Securities in accordance with Section 5.3, which notice will include a statement that any Special Warrants not exercised prior to the Deemed Exercise Time will be deemed to be exercised pursuant to Section 5.3 and will include confirmation that no adjustment has occurred pursuant to Section 4.1, or if an adjustment has occurred, provide a certificate as set forth in Section 4.3 herein.

5.2Voluntary Exercise of Special Warrants
(a)Each Special Warrant may be exercised by the holder thereof at any time on or after the Release Date, but not after the Deemed Exercise Time, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
(b)Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.2, the holder of any Special Warrant Certificate may exercise the right therein provided for, prior to the Deemed Exercise Time, by surrendering the Special Warrant Certificate to the Special Warrant Agent at its principal transfer office in the City of Toronto or Vancouver or at such additional place or places as may be designated by the Corporation from time to time with the approval of the Special Warrant Agent during normal business hours on a Business Day at that place before the Deemed Exercise Date, together with the exercise form(s) in the form attached as Appendix “1” to the Special Warrant Certificate(s) in accordance with the instructions attached as Appendix “3” to the Special Warrant Certificate duly completed and executed by the holder for the number of Underlying Securities which the holder desires to acquire, and subject to compliance with such requirements as the Special Warrant Agent may reasonably impose to permit the tracking of such exercises from time to time. Surrender of a Special Warrant Certificate with the exercise form(s) duly completed will be deemed to have been effected, and Special Warrants shall be deemed to have been exercised, only on personal delivery thereof to, or if sent by mail or other means of transmission on actual receipt thereof by, the Special Warrant Agent at one of the offices specified in this Subsection 5.2(b).
- 32 -
 
(c)Voluntary exercise, at a time when the Corporation has not filed the Prospectus Supplement or the Corporation has filed the Prospectus Supplement but the Prospectus Supplement has not been delivered to the Special Warrantholder, is subject to compliance with and may be restricted by the securities laws of the Designated Provinces and the United States and applicable states thereof and is further subject to the Special Warrantholders providing such assurances and executing such documents as may, in the reasonable opinion of the Corporation or the Warrant Underwriter, be required to ensure compliance with applicable securities legislation. If, at the time of the voluntary exercise of the Special Warrants pursuant to this Section, there remain restrictions on resale under applicable securities legislation on the Common Shares so acquired, the Corporation, may, if required on the advice of counsel, endorse the certificates representing the Common Shares with respect to those restrictions.

 

(d)Every exercise form delivered prior to the Deemed Exercise Date shall be signed by the holder of a Special Warrant Certificate who desires to exercise in whole or in part the right of acquisition therein provided for; shall specify the number of Underlying Securities that such holder wishes to acquire (being not more than the holder is entitled to acquire under the applicable Special Warrant Certificate), the person or persons in whose name or names the Underlying Securities which such holder desires to acquire are to be issued and his or their address or addresses, on which the Special Warrant Agent is entitled to act and rely for determining residency of the subscribing Special Warrantholder, and the number of Underlying Securities to be issued to each such person, and if more than one is so specified, the form shall have one of the boxes in the exercise form checked; and shall be substantially in the form set out in the Special Warrant Certificate.
(e)Subject to and upon compliance with the terms of this Section 5.2, a beneficial holder of Uncertificated Special Warrants evidenced by a security entitlement in respect of Special Warrants in the book entry registration system may exercise the right of acquisition by causing a Book Entry Only Participant to deliver to the Depository on behalf of the entitlement holder, notice of the owner’s intention to exercise the Special Warrants in a manner acceptable to the Depository. Forthwith upon receipt by the Depository of such notice, the Depository shall deliver to the Special Warrant Agent a Transaction Instruction confirming its intention to exercise Special Warrants in a manner acceptable to the Special Warrant Agent, including by electronic means through the book entry registration system. An electronic exercise of the Uncertificated Special Warrants initiated by the Book Entry Only Participant through a book based registration system, including CDSX, shall constitute a representation to both the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent that the beneficial owner at the time of exercise of such Uncertificated Special Warrants is either: i) (a) is not in the United States; (b) is not a U.S. Person and is not exercising such Special Warrants on behalf of a U.S. Person or a person in the United States; and (c) did not execute or deliver the notice of the owner’s intention to exercise such Special Warrants in the United States , or ii) is original holder of Special Warrants issued from conversion of Subscription Receipts originally issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and/or Regulation D thereunder and no exercise form need to be completed or, if the beneficial owner is a subsequent holder of the Special Warrants who is a U.S. Person, a person in the United States or otherwise subject to the 1933 Act, no person has paid or given any commission or other remuneration within the meaning of Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act to any person, directly or indirectly, for soliciting the exercise of the Special Warrants. If the CDS Participant is not able to make or deliver the foregoing representation by initiating the electronic exercise of the Uncertificated Special Warrants, then such Special Warrants shall be withdrawn from the book based registration system, including CDSX by the CDS Participant and an individually registered Special Warrant Certificate shall be issued by the Special Warrant Agent to such beneficial owner or CDS Participant and the exercise procedures set forth in Section 5.2(b) shall be followed.

 

- 33 -
 

(f)A notice in form acceptable to the Book Entry Only Participant from such beneficial holder should be provided to the Book Entry Only Participant sufficiently in advance so as to permit the Book Entry Only Participant to deliver notice to the Depository and for the Depository in turn to deliver written notice to the Special Warrant Agent prior to the Deemed Exercise Date. The Depository will initiate the exercise by way of the Transaction Instruction and the Special Warrant Agent will execute the exercise by issuing to the Depository through the book entry registration system the Underlying Securities to which the exercising Special Warrantholder is entitled pursuant to the exercise. Any expense associated with the exercise process will be for the account of the entitlement holder exercising the Special Warrants and/or the Book Entry Only Participant exercising the Special Warrants on its behalf.
(g)By causing a Book Entry Only Participant to deliver notice to the Depository, a Special Warrantholder shall be deemed to have irrevocably surrendered his or her Special Warrants so exercised and appointed such Book Entry Only Participant to act as his or her exclusive settlement agent with respect to the exercise and the receipt of Underlying Securities in connection with the obligations arising from such exercise.
(h)Any notice which the Depository determines to be incomplete, not in proper form, or not duly-executed shall for all purposes be void and of no effect and the exercise to which it relates shall be considered for all purposes not to have been exercised thereby. A failure by a Book Entry Only Participant to exercise or to give effect to the settlement thereof in accordance with the Special Warrantholder’s instructions will not give rise to any obligations or liability on the part of the Corporation or Special Warrant Agent to the Book Entry Only Participant or the Special Warrantholder.
- 34 -
 
(i)Any exercise form referred to in this Section 5.2 shall be signed by the registered Special Warrantholder, or its executors or administrators or other legal representatives or an attorney of the registered Special Warrantholder, duly appointed by an instrument in writing satisfactory to the Special Warrant Agent but such exercise form need not be executed by the Depository.
(j)Any exercise referred to in this Section 5.2 shall require that the original exercise form or other Transaction Instruction executed by the registered Special Warrantholder or the Depository as the case may be must be received by the Special Warrant Agent prior to the Deemed Exercise Date, as applicable.
(k)If the form of exercise notice set forth in the Special Warrant Certificate shall have been amended, the Corporation shall cause the amended exercise notice to be forwarded to all registered Special Warrantholders.
(l)Exercise notices and Transaction Instructions must be delivered to the Special Warrant Agent at any time during the Special Warrant Agent’s actual business hours on any Business Day prior to the Deemed Exercise Date. Any exercise notice or Transaction Instruction received by the Special Warrant Agent after business hours on any Business Day other than the Deemed Exercise Date will be deemed to have been received by the Special Warrant Agent on the next following Business Day.

 

(m)Any Special Warrant with respect to which an exercise form or a Transaction Instruction, as applicable is not received by the Special Warrant Agent before the Deemed Exercise Time on the Deemed Exercise Date shall be deemed to have expired and become void and all rights with respect to such Special Warrants shall terminate and be cancelled except for the right to receive an Underlying Security in accordance with Section 5.3 of this Indenture.
(n)Within three Business Days after the date of due exercise of a Special Warrant, the Special Warrant Agent shall cause to be delivered or mailed to the person or persons in whose name or names the Special Warrant is registered or to such address as the Corporation or Special Warrantholder may specify in writing to the Special Warrant Agent prior to the exercise of a Special Warrant or, if so specified in writing by the holder, cause to be delivered to such person or persons a certificate or certificates for the appropriate number of Common Shares subscribed for, or any other appropriate evidence of the issuance of Common Shares to such person or persons in respect of Common Shares issued under the book entry registration system.
(o)If any Underlying Securities subscribed for are to be issued to a person or persons other than the Special Warrantholder, the Special Warrantholder must pay to the Corporation or to the Special Warrant Agent on his behalf an amount equal to all applicable transfer taxes or other government charges, and the Corporation will not be required to issue or deliver any certificates evidencing any Underlying Securities unless or until that amount has been so paid or the Special Warrantholder has established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that the taxes and charges have been paid or that no taxes or charges are owing.
- 35 -
 
(p)Voluntary exercise, at a time when the Corporation has not filed the Prospectus Supplement or the Corporation has filed the Prospectus Supplement but the Prospectus Supplement has not been delivered to the Special Warrantholder, is subject to compliance with and may be restricted by the securities laws of the Designated Provinces and the United States and is further subject to the Special Warrantholders providing such assurances and executing such documents as may, in the reasonable opinion of the Corporation or the Special Warrant Agent, be required to ensure compliance with applicable securities legislation. If, at the time of the voluntary exercise of the Special Warrants pursuant to this Section 5.2, there remain restrictions on resale under applicable securities legislation on the Underlying Securities so acquired, the Corporation may, if required on the advice of counsel, endorse the certificates representing the Underlying Securities or make such other notation with respect to those restrictions.

The exercise form attached to the Special Warrant Certificate shall not be deemed to be duly completed if the name and mailing address of the holder do not appear legibly on such exercise form and such exercise form is not signed by the Special Warrantholder, his executor, administrator or other legal representative of such holder’s attorney duly appointed.

Exercise forms must be delivered to the Special Warrant Agent at any time during the Special Warrant Agent's actual business hours on any Business Day prior to the Deemed Exercise Time. Any exercise notice received by the Special Warrant Agent after business hours on any Business Day other than the Deemed Exercise Time will be deemed to have been received by the Special Warrant Agent on the next following Business Day.

5.3Deemed Exercise of Special Warrants

All Special Warrants not exercised by the Special Warrantholders pursuant to Section 5.2 prior to the Deemed Exercise Time will be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the Deemed Exercise Time and surrendered by the Special Warrantholders without any further action on the part of the Special Warrantholders. In that event, the Special Warrant Agent shall, (i) in respect of the CDS Global Warrants, immediately deliver in uncertificated form to the Depository through the book entry registration system, the Underlying Securities issued upon deemed exercise of the Special Warrants and the Corporation will direct the Depository to receive the Underlying Securities through the book entry only system; and (ii) in respect of the Special Warrant Certificates, mail within three Business Days, one or more certificates representing the Underlying Securities issued upon deemed exercise of the Special Warrants, registered in the name of the Special Warrantholders, to the addresses of the Special Warrantholders as specified in the register for the Special Warrants or to such address as the Corporation or Special Warrantholder may specify in writing to the Special Warrant Agent prior to the Deemed Exercise Time.

- 36 -
 

 

5.4Effect of Exercise of Special Warrants
(a)Subject to subsection (b), on exercise or deemed exercise of a Special Warrant, the Corporation shall cause to be issued to (i) in respect of Special Warrants that are not CDS Global Warrants, the person or persons in whose name or names the Underlying Securities so subscribed for are to be issued as specified in the exercise form, in the case of voluntary exercise, or Subscription Agreement, in the case of deemed exercise or (ii) in respect of CDS Global Warrants, the Depository, the number of Underlying Securities to be issued to such person or persons and such person or persons shall become a shareholder or shareholders of the Corporation in respect of the Underlying Securities with effect from the date on which the Special Warrant is exercised and shall be entitled to delivery of certificates evidencing the Underlying Securities, and the Corporation shall cause the certificates, or in the case of Underlying Securities issued under the book entry registration system, any other appropriate evidence of the issuance of Underlying Securities to be mailed by insured mail or delivered as specified to such person or persons (or, if applicable, the trustee under the registered retirement savings plan which holds the Underlying Securities) at the address or addresses specified in the exercise form or Subscription Agreement, as the case may be, within three Business Days of the date on which the Special Warrant is exercised or deemed to be exercised.

 

(b)Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, the Corporation shall not be required to deliver certificates for Underlying Securities in any period while the share transfer registers of the Corporation are closed and, in the event of the exercise of any Special Warrant during any such period, the Underlying Securities subscribed for shall be issued and such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Underlying Securities on the date on which such transfer registers are next reopened.
(c)Upon any exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants and issuance of Underlying Securities, the registered holder of the Underlying Securities so issued is deemed to have received the notice provided in Schedule “B” hereof.
5.5Partial Exercise

Any Special Warrantholder may acquire a number of Underlying Securities less than the number of Underlying Securities which the holder is entitled to acquire pursuant to the surrendered Special Warrant Certificate(s). In the event of any exercise of a number of Special Warrants less than the number which the holder is entitled to exercise pursuant to the surrendered Special Warrant Certificates, the Special Warrantholder upon such exercise shall, in addition to the number of Underlying Securities acquired pursuant to the Special Warrants exercised, be entitled to receive, without charge therefor, a new Special Warrant Certificate(s) in respect of the balance of the Special Warrants represented by the surrendered Special Warrant Certificate(s) and which were not then exercised.

- 37 -
 

 

5.6Special Warrants Void After Exercise Time

After the exercise or deemed exercise of a Special Warrant as provided in this Article 5, the holder of a Special Warrant Certificate representing the Special Warrant so exercised no longer has any rights either under this Indenture or the Special Warrant Certificate, other than, the right to receive certificates or other evidence of ownership as provided herein representing the Underlying Securities and the Special Warrant is void and of no value or effect.

5.7Fractions of Underlying Securities
(a)Where a Special Warrantholder is entitled to receive, as a result of the adjustments provided for in Section 4.1 or otherwise, on the exercise or partial exercise of its Special Warrants a fraction of an Underlying Security, such right may only be exercised in respect of such fraction in combination with another Special Warrant or other Special Warrants which in the aggregate entitle the Special Warrantholder to receive a whole number of Underlying Securities; and
(b)If a Special Warrantholder is not able to, or elects not to, combine Special Warrants so as to be entitled to acquire a whole number of Underlying Securities, the Special Warrantholder may not exercise the right to acquire a fractional Underlying Security, and, as a result, has the right to acquire only that number of Underlying Securities equal to the next lowest whole number of Underlying Securities and no cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional Underlying Securities.

 

5.8Accounting and Recording

The Special Warrant Agent shall promptly notify the Corporation with respect to Special Warrants exercised. The Special Warrant Agent shall record the particulars of the Special Warrants exercised which include the name or names and addresses of the persons who become holders of Underlying Securities on exercise pursuant to this Article 5 and the number of Underlying Securities issued. Within three Business Days of the exercise of each Special Warrant pursuant to Section 5.2, the Special Warrant Agent shall provide those particulars in writing to the Corporation.

5.9Legending of Special Warrants and Underlying Securities
(a)All Special Warrants and all securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof prior to the earlier of the Qualification Date and the date which is four months and one day following the Closing Date (and all certificates issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, as applicable) will have the following legends endorsed thereon:

“UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE JULY 2, 2016.”

and, if applicable in accordance with the policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange:

- 38 -
 

 

“WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE AND COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRADED ON OR THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE OR OTHERWISE IN CANADA OR TO OR FOR THE BENEFIT OF A CANADIAN RESIDENT UNTIL JULY 2, 2016.”

(b)The Underlying Securities (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, as applicable), if issued before the date that is four months and one day from the Closing Date and prior to the Qualification Date, shall in addition to the legend above in (a), bear the following legend:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE LISTED ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE (“TSX”); HOWEVER, THE SAID SECURITIES CANNOT BE TRADED THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF THE TSX SINCE THEY ARE NOT FREELY TRANSFERABLE, AND CONSEQUENTLY ANY CERTIFICATE REPRESENTING SUCH SECURITIES IS NOT “GOOD DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON THE TSX.”

provided that if, at any time, in the opinion of the Corporation’s counsel, such legends are no longer necessary or advisable under any applicable securities laws, or the holder of any such legended certificate, at the holder’s expense, provides the Corporation and Special Warrant Agent with evidence satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation and Special Warrant Agent (which may include an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Corporation) to the effect that such legends are not required, such legended security may thereafter be surrendered to the Corporation in exchange for a security which does not bear such legend.

(c)In addition to the legend set forth in subsection 5.9(a), certificates representing Special Warrants issued pursuant to conversion of any Subscription Receipts originally issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and/or Regulation D thereunder, as well as all certificates issued in exchange for or in substitution of such certificates representing Special Warrants, shall bear the following additional legend:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY AND THE SECURITIES DELIVERABLE UPON CONVERSION THEREOF HAVE NOT AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING OR OTHERWISE HOLDING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF MERUS LABS INTERNATIONAL INC. (THE “CORPORATION”) THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE CANADIAN LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (C) PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, OR (D) IN ANOTHER TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, AFTER THE HOLDER HAS, IN THE CASE OF (C) OR (D) ABOVE, FURNISHED TO THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION, IN EITHER CASE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE EXERCISED BY OR ON BEHALF OF A "U.S. PERSON" OR A PERSON IN THE UNITED STATES UNLESS THE UNDERLYING SECURITIES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LEGISLATION OF ANY SUCH STATE, OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS IS AVAILABLE.

provided that, if any Special Warrants are being sold outside the United States in compliance with the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S at a time when the Corporation is not subject to Rule 905 of Regulation S, the legends set forth above may be removed by providing an executed declaration to the Corporation, and to the Corporation’s registrar and transfer agent for Special Warrants, as the case may be, in substantially the form set forth as Schedule "C" with such changes as are appropriate to reflect the nature of the securities being sold (or as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time) and, with respect to Special Warrants, a broker’s affirmation in customary form, and, if requested by the Corporation or the transfer agent, an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation and the transfer agent to the effect that such sale is being made in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S; and provided, further, that, if any Special Warrants are being sold otherwise than in accordance with Regulation S and other than to the Corporation, the legend may be removed by delivery to the Corporation and transfer agent an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation and the transfer agent that such legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act.

(d)In addition to the legends set forth in subsections 5.9(a) and (b), certificates representing the Underlying Securities issued upon exercise of any Special Warrants bearing the legend set forth in section 5.9(c) issued pursuant to conversion of any Subscription Receipts originally issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and/or Regulation D thereunder, as well as all certificates issued in exchange for or in substitution of such certificates representing Underlying Securities, shall bear the following additional legend:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

THE PRESENCE OF THIS LEGEND MAY IMPAIR THE ABILITY OF THE HOLDER HEREOF TO EFFECT "GOOD DELIVERY" OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ON A CANADIAN STOCK EXCHANGE. A CERTIFICATE WITHOUT A LEGEND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT OF THE CORPORATION IN CONNECTION WITH A SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE, AN EXECUTED DECLARATION AND, IF REQUESTED BY THE CORPORATION OR THE TRANSFER AGENT, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING, EACH IN FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OF THE CORPORATION AND THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.”

5.10Securities Restrictions

Notwithstanding anything herein contained, in the event that the Special Warrants are exercised pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2 prior to the filing of the Prospectus Supplement, the certificates representing the Underlying Securities thereby issued will bear such legends as may, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, acting reasonably, be necessary in order to avoid a violation of any applicable securities laws or to comply with the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed, provided that if, at any time, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, such legends are no longer necessary in order to avoid violation of such laws, or the holder of any such legended certificates representing the Underlying Securities at the holder’s expense, provides the Corporation and the registrar and transfer agent of the Common Shares with evidence satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation and the registrar and transfer agent of the Common Shares (which may include an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Corporation and the registrar and transfer agent of the Common Shares) to the effect that such holder is entitled to sell or otherwise transfer such Underlying Securities in a transaction in which such legends are not required, such legended certificates representing Underlying Securities may thereafter be surrendered to the Special Warrant Agent in exchange for certificates which do not bear such legend.

Article 6
MEETINGS OF SPECIAL WARRANTHOLDERS

6.1Definitions

In this Article 6 or otherwise in this Indenture:

(a)Adjourned Meeting” means a meeting adjourned in accordance with Section 6.8;
(b)Extraordinary Resolution” means a resolution proposed to be passed as an extraordinary resolution at a Meeting duly convened for that purpose and held in accordance with the provisions of this Article 6, and carried by not less than 66 2/3% of the votes cast on such resolution; and
(c)Meeting” means a meeting of the Special Warrantholders in respect of any resolution including an Extraordinary Resolution.
6.2Convening Meetings

The Special Warrant Agent or the Corporation may convene a Meeting at any time at the expense of the Corporation. Upon receipt of a written requisition signed in one or more counterparts by Special Warrantholders holding not less than 25% of the aggregate number of the then outstanding Special Warrants, the Special Warrant Agent or the Corporation shall convene a Meeting, provided that, in the case of the Special Warrant Agent, it has been indemnified and funded to its reasonable satisfaction by the Corporation or the Special Warrantholders for the costs of convening and holding a Meeting. If the Special Warrant Agent or the Corporation fails to convene the Meeting within 15 Business Days after being duly requisitioned to do so and indemnified and funded as aforesaid, the Special Warrantholders holding not less than 25% of the aggregate number of the then outstanding Special Warrants may themselves convene a Meeting, the notice for which must be signed by a person that those Special Warrantholders specify, provided that the Special Warrant Agent and Corporation receive notice of the Meeting in accordance with Section 6.4. A written requisition must state, generally, the reason for the Meeting and business to be transacted at the Meeting.

6.3Place of Meeting

Every Meeting must be held in Vancouver, British Columbia or at such other place that the Special Warrant Agent and Corporation approve, at a location specified by the Corporation. 

6.4Notice

The Special Warrant Agent or the Corporation, as the case may be, shall give written notice of each Meeting to each Special Warrantholder, the Special Warrant Agent (unless the Meeting has been called by the Special Warrant Agent) and the Corporation (unless the Meeting has been called by the Corporation) in the manner specified in Article 9 at least 10 calendar days before the date of the Meeting. The Special Warrant Agent shall give written notice of each Adjourned Meeting to each Special Warrantholder in the manner specified in Article 9 at least seven calendar days before the date of the Adjourned Meeting. The notice for a Meeting must state the time and place of the Meeting and, generally, the reason for the Meeting and the business to be transacted at the Meeting, together with such additional information as may be required to sufficiently inform the Special Warrantholders regarding the business to be transacted at the Meeting. The notice for an Adjourned Meeting must state the time and place of the Adjourned Meeting but need not specify the business to be transacted at an Adjourned Meeting. The accidental omission by the Special Warrant Agent or the Corporation, as the case may be, to give notice of a Meeting or an Adjourned Meeting to a Special Warrantholder does not invalidate a resolution passed at a Meeting or Adjourned Meeting.

- 43 -
 

 

6.5Persons Entitled to Attend

The Corporation may and the Special Warrant Agent shall, each by its authorized representatives including directors, officers, employees, and agents, attend every Meeting and Adjourned Meeting but neither the Corporation nor the Special Warrant Agent has the right to vote unless they are acting in their capacity as a Special Warrantholder or a proxy for a Special Warrantholder. The legal advisors of the Corporation, the Special Warrant Agent, and any Special Warrantholders, respectively, may also attend a Meeting or Adjourned Meeting but do not have the right to vote, unless they have the right to vote as a Special Warrantholder.

6.6Quorum

Subject to the provisions of Section 6.18, a quorum for a Meeting shall consist of two or more persons present in person and owning or representing by proxy, not less than 25% of the aggregate number of the then outstanding Special Warrants.

6.7Chairman

The Special Warrant Agent shall nominate a natural person as the chairman of a Meeting or Adjourned Meeting. If the person so nominated is not present within 15 minutes after the time set for holding the Meeting or Adjourned Meeting, the Special Warrantholders present in person or represented by proxy shall choose one of their number to be chairman. The chairman may vote any Special Warrants for which he or she is the registered holder.

6.8Power to Adjourn

The chairman of any Meeting at which a quorum of the Special Warrantholders is present may, with the consent of the Meeting, adjourn any such meeting. Notice of such adjournment will be given in accordance with Section 6.4 with such other requirements, if any, as the Meeting may prescribe.

6.9Adjourned Meeting

If a quorum of the Special Warrantholders shall not be present within 30 minutes from the time fixed for holding any Meeting, the Meeting, if summoned by the Special Warrantholders or on a Special Warrantholders’ request, shall be dissolved; but in any other case the Meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is not a Business Day, in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following Business Day) at a place determined in accordance with Section 6.3, and at a time specified by the chairman and no notice of the adjournment need be given. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at an Adjourned Meeting which might have been dealt with at the original Meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same. No business shall be transacted at any Meeting unless a quorum is present at the commencement of the Meeting. At the Adjourned Meeting the Special Warrantholders present in person or represented by proxy shall form a quorum and may transact the business for which the Meeting was originally convened, notwithstanding that they may not hold at least 25% of the aggregate number of the then outstanding Special Warrants.

6.10Show of Hands

Subject to a poll and except as otherwise required herein, every question submitted to a Meeting or Adjourned Meeting, except an Extraordinary Resolution, shall be decided, in the first instance, by the majority of votes in a show of hands. If the vote is tied, the chairman does not have a casting vote and the motion will not be carried. On a show of hands, each Special Warrantholder present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote is entitled to one vote for every Special Warrant then outstanding of which such Special Warrantholder is the registered owner.

6.11Poll

When requested by a Special Warrantholder acting in person or by the proxy representing the Special Warrantholder and holding in the aggregate at least 5% of the aggregate number of the then outstanding Special Warrants, and on every Extraordinary Resolution, the chairman of a Meeting or Adjourned Meeting shall request a poll on a question submitted to the Meeting. Except as otherwise required herein, if a question has been put to a poll, that question shall be decided by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the votes given on the poll. If the vote is tied, the motion shall not be carried. On a poll, each Special Warrantholder or person representing a Special Warrantholder by proxy shall be entitled to one vote for every Special Warrant of which he is the registered holder or of which the person being represented by proxy is the registered holder, as the case may be. A declaration made by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or lost is conclusive evidence thereof. In the case of joint registered Special Warrantholders, any one of them present in person or represented by proxy may vote in the absence of the other or others but when more than one of them is present in person or by proxy, they may only vote together in respect of the Special Warrants of which they are joint registered holders.

6.12Regulations

The Special Warrant Agent may nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable. Proof of execution of any document or instrument in writing by a holder may be made by the certificate of a notary public, or other officer with similar powers, that the person signing such instrument acknowledged to him the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness to such execution, or in any other manner the Special Warrant Agent considers adequate.

The Special Warrant Agent represents to the Corporation that, to the best of its knowledge, at the time of the execution and delivery by it of this Indenture, there exists no material conflict of interest in the role of the Special Warrant Agent as a fiduciary hereunder but if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8.12, such a material conflict of interest exists, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and the instruments issued hereunder is not affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only that such material conflict of interest exists or arises. The Special Warrant Agent shall, within 30 calendar days after ascertaining that it has a material conflict of interest, either eliminate such material conflict of interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.5.

8.13Special Warrant Agent Not Ordinarily Bound

8.16Special Warrant Agent’s Discretion Absolute

The Special Warrant Agent represents to the Corporation that at the date hereof it is authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in British Columbia. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8.19, it ceases to be authorized to carry on such business in British Columbia, the validity and enforceability of this Indenture and of the Special Warrants issued hereunder are not affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only of such event, provided that the Special Warrant Agent shall, within 30 calendar days after ceasing to be authorized to carry on such business in British Columbia, either become so authorized or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.5.

8.20Indemnification of Special Warrant Agent

All sums expended or disbursed by the Special Warrant Agent in so doing shall be reimbursed as provided in Section 3.12. No such performance, expenditure or disbursement by the Special Warrant Agent shall be deemed to relieve the Corporation of any default hereunder or of its continuing obligations under the covenants herein contained.

8.22Third Party Interests

Each party to this Indenture hereby represents to the Special Warrant Agent that any account to be opened by, or interest to held by the Special Warrant Agent in connection with this Indenture, for or to the credit of such party, either (i) is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party; or (ii) is intended to be used by or on behalf of a third party, in which case such party hereto agrees to complete and execute forthwith a declaration in the Special Warrant Agent’s prescribed form as to the particulars of such third party.

8.23Not Bound to Act

The Special Warrant Agent shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever, the Special Warrant Agent, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist legislation, or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Special Warrant Agent, in its sole judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Indenture has resulted in its being in non- compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist legislation, or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign on 10 calendar days’ written notice to the Corporation, provided (i) that the Special Warrant Agent’s written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance; and (ii) that if such circumstances are rectified to the Special Warrant Agent’s satisfaction within such 10-day period, then such resignation shall not be effective.

MERUS LABS INTERNATIONAL INC.
(a corporation existing under the laws of British Columbia)

No.

CUSIP NO:

«Number» SPECIAL WARRANTS entitling the holder to acquire one Common Share for each Special Warrant, subject to adjustment as set out below

 

THIS IS TO CERTIFY that, for value received, «Name» (the “Special Warrantholder”) is the registered holder of the number of special warrants (the “Special Warrants”) stated above and is entitled to acquire in the manner and at the time, and subject to the restrictions contained in the Indenture (as defined below) the number of common shares (the “Underlying Securities”) of Merus Labs International Inc. (the “Corporation”) as is equal to the number of Special Warrants represented hereby (subject to adjustment as set out below and in the Indenture), all without payment of any consideration.

The Special Warrants represented by this certificate are issued under and pursuant to a certain indenture (the “Indenture”) made as of March 1, 2016 between the Corporation and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Special Warrant Agent”) (which expression includes any successor trustee appointed under the Indenture), to which Indenture and any instruments supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a full description of the rights of the holders of the Special Warrants and the terms and conditions upon which such Special Warrants are, or are to be, issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Indenture and all instruments supplemental thereto were herein set forth, to all of which provisions the holder of these Special Warrants by acceptance hereof assents. All terms defined in the Indenture are used herein as so defined. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Indenture and the provisions of this Special Warrant Certificate, except those that are necessary by context, the provisions of the Indenture shall prevail. The Corporation will furnish to the holder of this Special Warrant Certificate, upon request and without charge, a copy of the Indenture.

Unless earlier converted pursuant to a voluntary exercise by the holder thereof, the Special Warrants represented by this Special Warrant Certificate will be deemed to be automatically exercised at 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the earlier of:

(i)the deemed exercise date provided for in an exercise notice to be provided by the Corporation to the Special Warrant Agent following the date on which the Corporation has filed a prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the Corporation’s base shelf prospectus dated October 30, 2015 qualifying the distribution of the Underlying Securities issuable upon exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants in each of the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario (the “Designated Provinces”), provided that such date shall be no later than the third Business Day after the filing of the Prospectus Supplement; and

 

A-3

 

 
 

 

(ii)July 2, 2016,

 

(the “Deemed Exercise Time”).

 

If any Special Warrants have not been voluntarily exercised by the holders thereof prior to the Deemed Exercise Time, then such Special Warrants will be deemed to have been exercised, delivered and surrendered by the holder thereof immediately prior to the Deemed Exercise Time without any further action on the part of the holder.

The Corporation will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to file the Prospectus Supplement on or before 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on April 22, 2016.

The holder of this Special Warrant Certificate may, at any time before the Deemed Exercise Time, exercise all or any number of the Special Warrants represented hereby, by surrendering to the Special Warrant Agent a Special Warrant Certificate or Special Warrant Certificates representing the number of Special Warrants to be exercised, together with the duly completed and executed exercise form attached as Appendix “1” hereto in accordance with the instructions contained in Appendix “3” attached hereto. Any such exercise, at a time when the Corporation has not filed the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus Supplement has not been delivered to the Special Warrantholder, is subject to compliance with, and may be restricted by, Applicable Legislation. If, at the time of the exercise of the Special Warrants, there remain restrictions on resale under Applicable Legislation on the Underlying Securities acquired, the Corporation may endorse the certificates representing the Underlying Securities acquired with respect to such resale restrictions.

The Underlying Securities in respect of which the Special Warrants are exercised will be deemed to have been issued on the date of such exercise, at which time each Special Warrantholder will be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Underlying Securities.

After the exercise or deemed exercise of Special Warrants, the Special Warrant Agent shall within three Business Days of such exercise or deemed exercise cause to be mailed or delivered to each Special Warrantholder at its address specified in the register for the Special Warrants maintained by the Special Warrant Agent or to such address as the Corporation or Special Warrantholder may specify in writing to the Special Warrant Agent prior to the exercise or deemed exercise of such Special Warrants, certificates for the appropriate number of Underlying Securities issuable in respect of such Special Warrants, not exceeding those which such Special Warrantholder is entitled to acquire pursuant to the Special Warrants so exercised. If the holder of this Special Warrant Certificate exercises some but not all of the Special Warrants represented hereby, he or she will be entitled to receive, without charge, a new Special Warrant Certificate representing the unexercised number of the Special Warrants represented hereby.

The holder of this Special Warrant Certificate may at any time up to the Deemed Exercise Time, upon written instruction delivered to the Special Warrant Agent and payment of the charges provided for in the Indenture and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, exchange this Special Warrant Certificate for other Special Warrant Certificates evidencing Special Warrants entitling the holder to acquire in the aggregate the same number of Underlying Securities as may be acquired under this Special Warrant Certificate.

A-4

 
 

The number of Underlying Securities which may be acquired by a Special Warrantholder upon exercise of Special Warrants is also subject to and governed by Article 4 of the Indenture with respect to anti-dilution provisions, including provisions for the appropriate adjustment of the class, number and price of the securities issuable hereunder upon the occurrence of certain events including any subdivision, consolidation, or reclassification of the shares, payment of stock dividends, or amalgamation of the Corporation.

The holding of the Special Warrants evidenced by this Special Warrant Certificate does not constitute the Special Warrantholder a shareholder of the Corporation or entitle such holder to any right or interest in respect thereof except as expressly provided herein and in the Indenture.

The Special Warrants may only be transferred by the Special Warrantholder (or its legal representatives or its attorney duly appointed), on the register kept at the office of the Special Warrant Agent, in accordance with applicable laws and upon compliance with the conditions set out in the Indenture, by delivering to the Special Warrant Agent’s Vancouver office a duly executed Form of Transfer attached as Appendix “2” hereto and complying with such other reasonable requirements as the Corporation and the Special Warrant Agent may prescribe and such transfer shall be duly noted on the register by the Special Warrant Agent.

The holder understands and acknowledges that the Special Warrants and Underlying Securities issuable hereunder upon exercise of the Special Warrants (together, the “Securities”) have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or under the securities laws of any state of the United States, and that Special Warrants originally issued in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, a person in the United States or a U.S. Person are, and any Securities issued upon exercise of such Special Warrants will be, “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the 1933 Act. “United States” and “U.S. person” have the respective meanings assigned in Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the 1933 Act.

The holder understands that the Special Warrants represented hereby may not be exercised within the United States or by or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person or a person in the United States, and the Securities issuable upon exercise of such Special Warrants may not be delivered within the United States, unless such Securities are registered under the 1933 Act and the securities laws of any state in which the holder is resident, or unless an exemption from such registration requirements is available.

This Special Warrant Certificate shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the laws of Canada applicable therein and shall be treated in all respects as a British Columbia contract.

After the exercise or deemed exercise of any of the Special Warrants represented by this Special Warrant Certificate, the Special Warrantholder shall no longer have any rights under either the Indenture or this Special Warrant Certificate with respect to such Special Warrants, other than the right to receive certificates representing the Underlying Securities issuable on the exercise of those Special Warrants, and those Special Warrants shall be void and of no further value or effect.

 

A-5

 
 

The Indenture contains provisions making binding upon all Special Warrantholders resolutions passed at meetings of such holders in accordance with such provisions or by instruments in writing signed by the Special Warrantholders holding a specified percentage of the Special Warrants.

Time shall be of the essence hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Corporation has caused this Special Warrant Certificate to be executed and the Special Warrant Agent has caused this Special Warrant Certificate to be countersigned by its duly authorized officers as of this _____ day of ________________, 2016.
