Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Delaware General Corporation Law and our articles of incorporation and our bylaws.

Pursuant to our articles of incorporation and our bylaws, we may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, (other than an action by or in the right of us) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the company or is or was serving at the request of us as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorney fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably believed to be in our best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction or upon a pleas of nolo contenders or its equivalent shall not of itself create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in our best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

Our articles of incorporation and bylaws also provide that we may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of our company or procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of our company or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorney fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interests: but no indemnification shall be made in respect to any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to us unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses which such court deems proper.

To the extent that a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in the preceding two paragraphs or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorney fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

The indemnification provided by the provisions described in this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under our articles of incorporation, the bylaws, agreements, vote of the shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and personal representatives of such a person.

Item 7.
Exemption from Registration Claimed.
 
Not applicable.
 

 
Item 8.
Exhibits.


Item 9.    Undertakings.

A. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

           (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

           (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; or

           (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

                (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
 

 
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Articles of Incorporation of the registrant, the Bylaws of the registrant, indemnification agreements entered into between the registrant and its officers and directors or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant in successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN

The stock available for grant of Options under the Plan shall be shares of the Company's authorized but unissued, or reacquired, Common Stock. Subject to adjustment as provided herein, the maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be optioned and sold under the Plan is fifteen percent (15%) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock on the date this Plan is adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors.  The maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that may be optioned and sold under the Plan will be increased effective the first day of each of the Company’s fiscal quarters, by an amount equal to the lesser of:

(1)  
The number of shares which is equal to 15% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the first day of the applicable fiscal quarter, less the number of shares of Common Stock which may be optioned and sold under the Plan prior to the first day of the applicable fiscal quarter; and

(2)  
a lesser number of shares of Common Stock determined by the board of directors of the Company.

The maximum number of shares for which an Option may be granted to any Optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed three percent (3%) of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.  In the event that any outstanding Option under the Plan for any reason expires or is terminated, the shares of Common Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of the Option shall again be available for Options under the Plan as if no Option had been granted with regard to such shares.

7.  
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

Options granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by agreements (which need not be identical) in such form and containing such provisions that are consistent with the Plan as the Plan Administrator shall from time to time approve. Such agreements may incorporate all or any of the terms hereof by reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(1)  
Number of Shares. Each Option agreement shall specify the number of shares subject to the Option.

(2)  
Option Price. The purchase price for the shares subject to any Option shall be determined by the Plan Administrator at the time of the grant, but shall not be less than 85% of Fair Market Value per share. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the purchase price for the shares subject to any Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock of the Company on the date the Stock Option is granted. In the case of any Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, or any of its parent or subsidiary corporations, the Option price shall not be less than 110% of
 
4

 
the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock of the Company on the date the Option is granted.  For purposes of determining the stock ownership of an employee, the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply.
 
(3)  
Notice and Payment. Any exercisable portion of a Stock Option may be exercised only by: (a) delivery of a written notice to the Company prior to the time when such Stock Option becomes unexercisable herein, stating the number of shares bring purchased and complying with all applicable rules established by the Plan Administrator; (b) payment in full of the exercise price of such Option by, as applicable, delivery of: (i) cash or check for an amount equal to the aggregate Stock Option exercise price for the number of shares being purchased, (ii) in the discretion of the Plan Administrator, upon such terms as the Plan Administrator shall approve, a copy of instructions to a broker directing such broker to sell the Common Stock for which such Option is exercised, and to remit to the Company the aggregate exercise price of such Stock Option (a “cashless exercise”), or (iii) in the discretion of the Plan Administrator, upon such terms as the Plan Administrator shall approve, shares of the Company's Common Stock owned by the Optionee, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, with a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate purchase price of the shares with respect to which such Stock Option or portion is thereby exercised (a "stock-for-stock exercise"); (c) payment of the amount of tax required to be withheld (if any) by the Company, or any parent or subsidiary corporation as a result of the exercise of a Stock Option.  At the discretion of the Plan Administrator, upon such terms as the Plan Administrator shall approve, the Optionee may pay all or a portion of the tax withholding by: (i) cash or check payable to the Company, (ii) a cashless exercise, (iii) a stock-for-stock exercise, or (iv) a combination of one or more of the foregoing payment methods; and (d) delivery of a written notice to the Company requesting that the Company direct the transfer agent to issue to the Optionee (or his designee) a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Option was exercised or, in the case of a cashless exercise, for any shares that were not sold in the cashless exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in its sole discretion, may extend and maintain, or arrange for the extension and maintenance of credit to any Optionee to finance the Optionee's purchase of shares pursuant to the exercise of any Stock Option, on such terms as may be approved by the Plan Administrator, subject to applicable regulations of the Federal Reserve Board and any other laws or regulations in effect at the time such credit is extended.

(4)  
Terms of Option. No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of the earliest of: (a) ten years after the date the Option is granted, (b) three months after the date the Optionee's employment with the Company and its subsidiaries terminates, or a Non-Employee Director or Consultant ceases to provide services to the Company, if such termination or cessation is for any reason other than Disability or death, (c) one year after the date the Optionee's employment with the Company, and its subsidiaries, terminates,

or a Non­-Employee Director or Consultant ceases to provide services to the Company, if such termination or cessation is a result of death or Disability; provided, however, that the Option agreement for any Option may provide for shorter periods in each of the foregoing instances. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, or any of its parent or subsidiary corporations, the term set forth in (a) above shall not be more than five years after the date the Option is granted.
 
(5)  
Exercise of an Option. No Option shall be exercisable during the lifetime of an Optionee by any person other than the Optionee. Subject to the foregoing, the Plan Administrator shall have the power to set the time or times within which each Option shall vest or be exercisable and to accelerate the time or times of vesting and exercise; provided, however each Option shall provide the right to exercise at the rate of at least 20% per year over five years from the date the Option is granted.  Unless otherwise provided by the Plan Administrator, each Option will not be subject to any vesting requirements. To the extent that an Optionee has the right to exercise an Option and purchase shares pursuant hereto, the Option may be exercised from time to time by written notice to the Company, stating the number of shares being purchased and accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price for such shares.

(6)  
No Transfer of Option. No Option shall be transferable by an Optionee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

(7)  
Limit on Incentive Stock Option. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the Option is granted) of the stock with respect to which an Incentive Stock Option is granted and exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year (under all Incentive Stock Option plans of the Company and its subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000.  To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the Stock Option is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year (under all Incentive Stock Option plans of the Company and any parent or subsidiary corporations) exceeds $100,000, such Stock Options shall be treated as Non­-Qualified Stock Options.  The determination of which Stock Options shall be treated as Non-­Qualified Stock Options shall be made by taking Stock Options into account in the Order in which they were granted.

(8)  
Restriction on Issuance of Shares.  The issuance of Options and shares shall be subject to compliance with all of the applicable requirements of law with respect to the issuance and sale of securities, including, without limitation, any required qualification under state securities laws.  If an Optionee acquires shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of an Option, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may require as a condition of issuance of shares covered by the Option that the shares of Common Stock be subject to restrictions on transfer. The Company may place a legend on the share certificates reflecting the fact that they are subject to restrictions on transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section.  In addition, the Optionee may be required to execute a buy-sell agreement in favor of the Company or its designee with respect to all or any of the shares so acquired. In such event, the terms of any such agreement shall apply to the optioned shares.

(9)  
Investment Representation. Any Optionee may be required, as a condition of issuance of shares covered by his or her Option, to represent that the shares to be acquired pursuant to exercise will be acquired for investment and without a view toward distribution thereof, and in such case, the Company may place a legend on the share certificate(s) evidencing the fact that they were acquired for investment and cannot be sold or transferred unless registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or unless counsel for the Company is satisfied that the circumstances of the proposed transfer do not require such registration.

(10)  
Rights as a Shareholder or Employee.  An Optionee or transferee of an Option shall have no right as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares covered by any Option until the date of the issuance of a share certificate for such shares.  No adjustment shall be made for dividends (Ordinary or extraordinary, whether cash, securities, or other property), or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such share certificate is issued, except as provided in paragraph (13) below. Nothing in the Plan or in any Option agreement shall confer upon any employee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or interfere in any way with any right of the Company or any subsidiary to terminate the Optionee's employment at any time.

(11)  
No Fractional Shares. In no event shall the Company be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of an Option.

(12)  
Exercise in the Event of Death. In the event of the death of the Optionee, any Option or unexercised portion thereof granted to the Optionee, to the extent exercisable by him or her on the date of death, may be exercised by the Optionee's personal representatives, heirs, or legatees subject to the provisions of paragraph (4) above.
 
7

 
(13)  
Recapitalization or Reorganization of the Company.  Except as otherwise provided herein, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made (1) in the number and class of shares subject to the Plan, (2) to the Option rights granted under the Plan, and (3) in the exercise price of such Option rights, in the event that the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company are increased or decreased as a result of a stock dividend (but only on Common Stock), stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, separation, or like change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company. In the event there shall be any other change in the number or kind of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, or any stock or other securities into which such common stock shall have been changed, or for which it shall have been exchanged, whether by reason of a complete liquidation of the Company or a merger, reorganization, or consolidation with any other corporation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or the Company becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of another corporation, then if the Plan Administrator shall, in its sole discretion, determine that such change equitably requires an adjustment to shares of Common Stock currently subject to Options under the Plan, or to prices or terms of outstanding Options, such adjustment shall be made in accordance with such determination.

To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or securities of the Company, such adjustment shall be made by the Plan Administrator, the determination of which in that respect shall be final, binding, and conclusive. No right to purchase fractional shares shall result from any adjustment of Options pursuant to this Section. In case of any such adjustment, the shares subject to the Option shall he rounded down to the nearest whole share. Notice of any adjustment shall be given by the Company to each Optionee whose Options shall have been so adjusted and such adjustment (whether or not notice is given) shall be effective and binding for all purposes of the Plan.

In the event of a complete liquidation of the Company or a merger, reorganization, or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or the Company becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of another corporation, any unexercised Options granted under the Plan shall be deemed cancelled unless the surviving corporation in any such merger, reorganization, or consolidation elects to assume the Options under the Plan or to issue substitute Options in place thereof; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Options would be cancelled in accordance with the foregoing, the Optionee shall have the right exercisable during a ten-day period ending on the fifth day prior to such liquidation, merger, or consolidation to exercise such Option in whole or in part without regard to any installment exercise provisions in the Option agreement.

(14)  
Modification, Extension and Renewal of Options.  Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of the Plan, the Plan Administrator may modify, extend or renew outstanding options granted under the Plan and accept the surrender of outstanding Options (to the extent not theretofore exercised).  The Plan Administrator shall not, however, without the approval of the Board, modify any outstanding Incentive Stock Option in any manner that would cause the Option not to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, alter or impair any rights of the Optionee under the Option.
 
(15)  
Other Provisions. Each Option may contain such other terms, provisions, and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Plan Administrator.
 
8.  
TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

The Board may at any time terminate or amend the Plan; provided that, without approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock of the Company represented and voting at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present or the written consent of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, there shall be (except by operation of the provisions of sections (6) or (7)(13) above) no increase in the total number of shares covered by the Plan, no change in the class of persons eligible to receive options granted under the Plan, no reduction in the limits for determination of the minimum exercise price of Options granted under the Plan, and no extension of the limits for determination of the latest date upon which Options may be exercised; and provided further that, without the consent of the Optionee, no amendment may adversely affect any then outstanding Option or any unexercised portion thereof.

9.  
INDEMNIFICATION

In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as members of the Board Committee that administers the Plan, the members of the Plan Administrator shall be indemnified by the Company against reasonable expense, including attorney's fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein to which they, or any of them, may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan or any Option granted thereunder, and against any and all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company).  In addition, such members shall be indemnified by the Company for any amount paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any action, suit, or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall have been adjudged that such member is liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duties, provided however that within sixty (60) days after institution of any such action, suit, or proceeding, the member shall in writing offer the Company the opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same.

10.  
EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN

11.  
MISCELLANEOUS

Any dispute arising out of this Plan or any provision hereof, or of any agreement issued or executed under the Plan shall be resolved by the Plan Administrator, and the decision of the Plan Administrator shall be final and binding upon all parties.

Re:     Ivany Mining, Inc., Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for Ivany Mining, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation of the registration statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), relating to the registration of 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”).  This opinion is being furnished pursuant to Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act.

In rendering the opinion set forth below, we have reviewed (a) the Registration Statement and the exhibits thereto; (b) the Company's Articles of Incorporation; (c) the Company's Bylaws; (d) certain records of the Company's corporate proceedings as reflected in its minute books, including resolutions of the board of directors approving the Plan and; (e) the Plan; and (f) such statutes, records and other documents as we have deemed relevant. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof. In addition, we have made such other examinations of law and fact, as we have deemed relevant in order to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.

Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares have been duly and validly authorized, and when the Registration Statement has become effective under the Act, such Shares will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock.

Very truly yours,

CANE CLARK LLP
