The Board may, in its sole discretion, award the majority of the Options to insiders of the Company. However, in no case shall:

In the event of a Change of Control or impending Change of Control, the Board may, in its sole discretion, deal with outstanding Options in the manner it deems fair and reasonable in light of the circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board may, without any action or consent required on the part of any Option Holder:

(i)	deliver a notice to the Option Holder advising the Option Holder that the unvested portion of the Option held by the Option Holder, if any, shall immediately vest;
(ii)	deliver a notice to an Option Holder advising the Option Holder that the Expiry Date for any vested portion or portions of the Option shall be the earlier of the Fixed Expiry Date and the 5th day following the date of the notice and the Expiry Date for any unvested portion of the Option shall be the date of the notice; or
(iii)	take such other actions, and combinations of the foregoing actions, as it deems fair and reasonable under the circumstances.

The foregoing subparagraphs (b) through (d) shall only apply once an Option Holder ceases to fall into any of the categories of Eligible Persons. The Board and the Administrator shall look to which of the definitions of Employee, Director, Officer or Consultant the Option Holder met immediately prior to the Option Holder ceasing to be an Eligible Person to determine which of subparagraphs (b) through (d) shall apply. If the Option Holder met more than one definition, then the following shall apply.

Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, in no case shall the Exercise Price be less than the minimum prescribed by each of the organized trading facilities as would apply to the Award Date in question.

3.6 Additional Terms

Subject to all applicable Securities Laws and the rules and policies of all applicable Regulatory Authorities, the Board may attach other terms and conditions to the award of a particular Option, such terms and conditions to be referred to in a schedule attached to the Option Certificate. These terms and conditions may include, but are not necessarily limited to, providing that an Option or a portion or portions of an Option expire on a certain date, after certain periods of time or upon the occurrence of certain events other than as provided for herein, provided that no Option shall expire more than ten years after the Award Date.

- 10 -

3.7 Assignment of Options

Options may not be assigned or transferred, provided however that the Personal Representative of an Option Holder may, to the extent permitted by paragraph 4.1, exercise the Option within the Exercise Period.

If:

(a)	the Common Shares are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of Shares of the Company or securities of another corporation, whether through an arrangement, amalgamation or other similar procedure or otherwise, or a share recapitalization, subdivision or consolidation;
(b)	a dividend is declared upon the Common Shares, payable in Common Shares (other than in lieu of dividends paid in the ordinary course);
(c)	the Company distributes by way of a dividend, or otherwise, to all or substantially all holders of Common Shares, property, evidences of indebtedness or Shares or other securities of the Company (other than Common Shares) or rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares or other securities or property of the Company, other than as a dividend in the ordinary course; or
(d)	there is any other change that the Board, in its sole discretion, determines equitably requires an adjustment to be made,

then, subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company and any necessary Regulatory Approval, any term that the Board determines requires adjustment (including the number of Common Shares subject to each outstanding Option and the number of Common Shares that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Options have yet been granted or that have again become available for the purposes of the Plan, the Exercise Price of each outstanding Option, as well as any other terms that the Board determines require adjustment) shall be adjusted by the Board in the manner the Board deems appropriate and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as the Board determines, no issuance by the Company of Shares of any class, or securities convertible into Shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or Exercise Price of Common Shares subject to an Option. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of an Option and accordingly, if as a result of the adjustment, an Option Holder would become entitled to a fractional Common Share, such Option Holder shall have the right to purchase only the next lowest whole number of Common Shares and no payment or other adjustment shall be made with respect to the fractional interest so disregarded.

3.9 Vesting

An Option awarded to a Consultant performing investor relations activities shall vest in stages over 12 months, such that the right to purchase 25% of the Common Shares subject to the Option shall vest in each three-month period.

- 11 -

3.10 Hold Period

In the event the Board awards an Option with an Exercise Price that is based on the Discounted Market Price, Common Shares issued upon the exercise of the Option shall be subject to a four-month TSX Venture hold period from the Award Date of the Option. The Option Certificate and the share certificate, if applicable, shall bear the following legend:

“Without prior written approval of the TSX Venture 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 TSX Venture Exchange or otherwise in Canada or to or for the benefit of a Canadian resident until [date].”
