EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Establishment of Equity Incentive Plan

2.1    There is hereby established an equity incentive plan to recognize contributions made by Service Providers and to create an incentive for their continuing assistance to the Company.

Maximum Plan Shares

2.2    The maximum aggregate number of Plan Shares that may be reserved for issuance under the Plan at any point in time is 12.5% of the Outstanding Shares from time to time, unless this Plan is amended pursuant to the requirements of the TSX Policies.

2.3    Unless otherwise determined in the discretion of the Board, the number of Plan Shares that may be reserved for issuance under the Plan to any one Recipient will not exceed 5% of the Outstanding Shares on a non-diluted basis, less any Common Shares reserved for issuance to such Recipient under Share Compensation Arrangements other than this Plan.

Eligibility

2.4    Awards may be granted hereunder to Service Providers from time to time by the Board. Service Providers that are corporate entities will be required to undertake in writing not to effect or permit any transfer of ownership or option of any of its shares, nor issue more of its shares so as to indirectly transfer the benefits of an Award, as long as such Award remains outstanding, unless the written permission of the TSX and the Company is obtained.

Awards Granted Under the Plan

2.5    All Awards granted under the Plan will be evidenced by an Award Commitment in substantially the form attached to this Plan as Schedule “A”, showing the number of Award Shares, the term of the Award, a reference to vesting terms, if any, and the Exercise Price, if applicable, or otherwise modified in respect of the terms of the specific Award as necessary.

2.6    Subject to specific variations approved in accordance with this Plan, all terms and conditions set out herein will be deemed to be incorporated into and form part of an Award Commitment made hereunder.

Awards Not Exercised

2.7    In the event an Award granted under the Plan expires unexercised or is terminated by reason of dismissal of the Recipient for cause or is otherwise lawfully cancelled prior to exercise of the Award, the Award Shares that were issuable thereunder will be returned to the Plan and will be eligible for re-issue. For greater certainty Awards which are exercised thereupon increase the number available to the Plan by the relevant percentage of Outstanding Shares as provided hereunder.

Administration of Plan

2.8    The Board will be responsible for the general administration of the Plan and the proper execution of its provisions, the interpretation of the Plan and the determination of all questions arising hereunder.

2.9    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Board has the power to:

(a) determine the Service Providers to whom Awards are to be granted, to grant such Awards, and, subject to the other terms of this Plan, to determine any terms and conditions, limitations and restrictions in respect of any particular grant of Award;

(b) allot Common Shares for issuance on connection with the exercise of Awards; and

(c) delegate all or such portion of its powers hereunder as it may determine to one or more committees of the Board, either indefinitely or for such period of time as it may specify, and thereafter each such committee may exercise the powers and discharge the duties of the Board in respect of the Plan so delegated to the same extent as the Board is hereby authorized so to do.

Regulatory Approval

2.10    This Plan will be subject to the approval of any regulatory authority whose approval is required. Any Awards granted under this Plan prior to such approvals being given will be conditional upon such approvals being given, and no such Awards may be exercised unless and until such approvals are given.

Compliance with Legislation

2.11    The Company will not be required to issue any Common Shares under the Plan unless such issuance is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, rules, orders of governmental or regulatory authorities and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which Common Shares of the Company are listed. The Company will not in any event be obligated to take any action to comply with any such laws, regulations, rules, orders or requirements.

ARTICLE 3

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS

3.1    Options: The Board is hereby authorized to grant Options to a Service Provider with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions not inconsistent with the provision of this Plan as the Board shall determine:

3.1.1    Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an Option will be set by the Board at the time such Option is granted under this Plan, and, subject to the provisions set forth in Section 3.1.4(d), cannot be less than the Market Price.

3.1.2    Term. Subject to the application of Section 3.11, an Option can be exercisable for a maximum of 10 years from the Grant Date, unless otherwise determined in the discretion of the Board.

3.1.3    Vesting. No Option shall be exercisable until it is vested. The vesting schedule of each Option will be as determined in the discretion of the Board at the time of the grant of the Option.

3.1.4    For US Residents - Incentive Stock Options.

(a) Eligible Recipients of ISOs. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of the Company or an Affiliate.

(b) Designation of ISO Status. The Board action approving the grant of an Option to a U.S. Participant, and the Award Commitment, must specify that the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option. If an Option is not specifically designated as an Incentive Stock Option, or if an Option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option but some portion or all of the Option fails to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under the applicable rules, then the Option (or portion thereof) will be a Nonstatutory Stock Option.

(c) Maximum Shares Issuable On Exercise of ISOs. Subject to the adjustment provisions of this Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options is [_________] Common Shares.

(d) Limits for 10% Stockholders. A person who owns (or is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) Common Shares possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of securities of the Company or any Affiliate, will not be granted an Incentive Stock Option unless the exercise price of such Option is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Market Price on the date of grant and the Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the Grant Date.

(e) No Transfer. As provided by Section 422(b)(5) of the Code, an Incentive Stock Option will not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and will be exercisable during the lifetime of the U.S. Participant only by the U.S. Participant. If the Board elects to allow the transfer of an Option by a U.S. Participant that is designated as an Incentive Stock Option, such transferred Option will automatically become a Nonstatutory Stock Option.

(f) US $100,000 Limit. As provided by Section 422(d) of the Code and applicable regulations thereunder, to the extent that the aggregate Market Price (determined at the time of grant) of Common Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any U.S. Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Affiliate) exceeds US$100,000 (or such other limit established in the Code) or otherwise does not comply with the rules governing Incentive Stock Options, the Options or portions thereof that exceed such limit (according to the order in which they were granted) or otherwise do not comply with such rules will be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the applicable Award Commitment(s).

(g) Post-Termination Exercise Period. To obtain the United States federal income tax advantages associated with an Incentive Stock Option, the United States Internal Revenue Code requires that at all times beginning on the date of grant and ending on the day three (3) months before the date of exercise of the Option, the U.S. Participant must be an employee of the Company or an Affiliate (except in the event of the U.S. Participant’s death or Disability, in which case a 12-month period applies). The Company cannot guarantee that the Option will be treated as an Incentive Stock Option if the U.S. Participant continues to provide services to the Company or an Affiliate after such U.S. Participant’s employment terminates or if the U.S. Participant otherwise exercises the Option more than three (3) months (or twelve (12) months, as the case may be) after the date his or her employment terminates, or the Option otherwise fails to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option.

3.2    Restricted Stock: The Board is hereby authorized to grant Restricted Stock to a Service Provider with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions not inconsistent with the provision of this Plan as the Board shall determine:

3.2.1    Restriction. Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions as the Board may impose (including, without limitation, a restriction on or prohibition against the right to receive any dividend or other right or property with respect thereto), which restrictions lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise as the Board may deem appropriate.

3.2.2    Restricted Stock Certificates. Any Restricted Stock granted under this Plan may be evidenced by the issuance of a share certificate or certificates. If any share certificate is issued, such certificate shall be held by the Company and such certificate shall be registered in the name of the Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the applicable Award Agreement and possible forfeiture of such shares of Restricted Stock.

3.2.3    Except as otherwise determined by the Board, upon a Participant’s termination of employment (as determined under criteria established by the Board) during the applicable restriction period, all applicable Common Shares of Restricted Stock at such time subject to restriction shall be forfeited and reacquired by the Company; provided, however, that the Board may, when it finds that a waiver would be in the best interest of the Company, waive in whole or in part any or all remaining restrictions with respect to Common Shares of Restricted Stock.

3.3    Restricted Stock Unit Awards: The Board is hereby authorized to grant Restricted Stock Unit Awards to a Service Provider evidencing the right for such Service Provider to receive a Common Share (or cash payment equal to the Market Price of a Common Share) at some future date.

3.3.1    Restrictions. A Restricted Stock Unit Award will be subject to an Award Commitment containing such terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Board shall determine.

3.3.2    Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Board and as set forth in the applicable Award Commitment, upon a Participant’s termination of employment (as determined under criteria established by the Board) during the applicable restriction period, all applicable Restricted Stock Units at such time subject to restriction shall be forfeited and reacquired by the Company; provided, however, that the Board may, when it finds that a waiver would be in the best interest of the Company, waive in whole or in part any or all remaining restrictions with respect to Restricted Stock Units.

3.3.3.    For Canadian Residents. For Canadian resident Service Providers, Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall be settled in Common Shares, unless the Company offers the Participant the right to receive cash in lieu of Common Shares and the Participant, in its sole discretion, so elects.

3.3.4    Voting and Dividend Rights. A Restricted Stock Unit does not entitle the holder thereof to any rights with respect to voting and dividends.

3.4    Performance Awards:

3.4.1    The Board is hereby authorized to grant Performance Awards to an Eligible Person subject to the terms of this Plan. A Performance Award granted under this Plan (i) may be denominated or payable in cash, Common Shares (including, without limitation, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units), other securities, other Awards or other property, and (ii) shall confer on the holder thereof the right to receive payments, in whole or in part, upon the achievement of such performance goals during such performance periods as the Board shall establish. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any Performance Award granted, the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award and any other terms and conditions of the Performance Award shall be determined by the Board. For Canadian resident Service Providers, Performance Awards shall be settled in Common Shares, unless the Company offers the Participant the right to receive cash in lieu of Common Shares and the Participant, in its sole discretion, so elects.

Recipient Ceasing to be Director, Officer, Employee or Service Provider

3.5    No Award may be exercised after the Recipient, if a Director or Officer, has ceased to be a Director or Officer or, if an Employee or other Service Provider has left the employ or service of the Company, except as follows:

but provided that in no event may the term of the Award exceed 10 years, unless determined in the discretion of the Board.

Acceleration of Vesting

3.6    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.5(a) and Section 3.5(b), if, in the case of an Recipient who is an Employee, that Recipient’s employment terminates by reason of death or Disability, subject to the terms of the Award set out in an Award Commitment, any Award held by such Employee who has been Continuously Employed by the Company for a minimum of three (3) years shall become fully vested and exercisable and may thereafter be exercised during the term of the Award set forth in Section 3.5(a) and Section 3.5 (b).

3.7    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.5(c), if an Recipient’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause then, provided that the Recipient has been Continuously Employed by the Company for a minimum of three (3) years, then, subject to the terms of the Award set out in an Award Commitment, all Awards shall become fully vested and exercisable and may thereafter be exercised during the term of the Option set forth in Section 3.5(c).

3.8    Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control or Take Over Bid, any and all Awards that are outstanding at the time of the occurrence of such event shall become immediately vested and fully exercisable for the periods indicated (each such exercise period referred to as an “Acceleration Window”):

(a) for a period of 45 days beginning on the date which any person together with all affiliates and associates of such person, becomes, after the date of this Plan, the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding;

(b) beginning on the date that a tender or exchange offer for Common Shares by any person is first published or sent or given within the meaning of the takeover bid rules under Alberta securities legislation, and continue so long as such offer remains open (including any extensions or renewals of such offer), unless by the terms of such offer the Offeror, upon consummation thereof, would be the beneficial owner of less than 20% of the common shares of the Corporation then outstanding; or

(c) for a period of 20 days beginning on the date on which the shareholders of the Company duly approve any merger, consolidation, reorganization or other transaction providing for the conversion or exchange of more than 20% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company into securities of any entity, or cash, or property, or a combination of any of the foregoing.

Non Assignable

3.9    Subject to Section 3.5(a), all Awards will be exercisable only by the Recipient to whom they are granted and will not be assignable or transferable.

Adjustment of the Number of Award Shares

Compliance with Section 409A of the Code

3.12    Unless otherwise expressly provided for in an Award Commitment, the terms applicable to Options granted to U.S. Participants will be interpreted to the greatest extent possible in a manner that makes those Options exempt from Section 409A of the Code, and, to the extent not so exempt, that brings the Options into compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan (and unless the Award Commitment or other written contract with the U.S. Participant specifically provides otherwise), if the Common Shares are publicly traded, and if a U.S. Participant of an Option that constitutes “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code is a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code, no distribution or payment of any amount that is due because of a “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A of the

Code without regard to alternative definitions thereunder) will be issued or paid before the date that is six (6) months following the date of such U.S. Participant’s “separation from service” or, if earlier, the date of the U.S. Participant’s death, unless such distribution or payment can be made in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code, and any amounts so deferred will be paid in a lump sum on the day after such six (6) month period elapses, with the balance paid thereafter on the original schedule.

Award Commitments

3.13    Each Award will be evidenced by an Award Commitment which incorporates such terms and conditions as the Board in its discretion deems appropriate and consistent with the provisions of this Plan (and the execution and delivery by the Company of an Award Commitment with a Participant shall be conclusive evidence that such Award Commitment incorporates terms and conditions determined by the Board and is consistent with the provisions of this Plan). Each Award Commitment will be executed on behalf of the Company by any member of the Board or any Officer or such other Person as the Board may designate for such purpose.

ARTICLE 4

Employment and Services
