This short form prospectus is a base shelf prospectus. This short form base shelf prospectus has been filed under legislation in each of the provinces and territories of Canada that permits certain information about these securities to be determined after this prospectus has become final and that permits the omission from this prospectus of that information. The legislation requires the delivery to purchasers of a prospectus supplement containing the omitted information within a specified period of time after agreeing to purchase any of these securities, except where an exemption from such delivery requirements is available.
A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. This prospectus shall not constitute an offer to sell in any U.S. state where the offer or sale is not permitted.

This short form base shelf prospectus constitutes a public offering of these securities only in those jurisdictions where they may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such securities.

Profound Medical Corp. (the “Corporation” or “Profound”) may offer and issue from time to time (i) common shares of the Corporation (“Common Shares”); (ii) warrants to purchase Common Shares (“Warrants”); (iii) bonds, debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness (the “Debt Securities”); (iv) subscription receipts, each of which, once purchased, entitle the holder to receive upon satisfaction of certain release conditions, and for no additional consideration, one Common Share and/or other securities of the Corporation (“Subscription Receipts”); or (v) units (“Units”) comprised of one or more of the other securities described in this short form base shelf prospectus (the “Prospectus”) (all of the foregoing collectively, the “Securities”) or any combination thereof for up to an aggregate initial offering price of US$150,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in other currencies) during the 25-month period that this Prospectus, including any amendments hereto, remains effective. Securities may be offered separately or together, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined based on market conditions at the time of sale and set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement (a “Prospectus Supplement”). One or more holders of Common Shares (each, a “Selling Shareholder”) may also offer and sell Common Shares under this Prospectus. See “Selling Shareholders”. The Corporation is filing this Prospectus in connection with the concurrent filing of a U.S. registration statement on Form F-10, of which this Prospectus forms a part (the “Registration Statement”), pursuant to the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”). See “Available Information”.
The specific terms of the Securities with respect to a particular offering will be set out in the applicable Prospectus Supplement and may include, where applicable: (i) in the case of Common Shares, the number of Common Shares offered, the offering price (in the event the offering is a fixed price distribution) or the manner of determination thereof (in the event the offering is a non-fixed price distribution), including sales in transactions that are deemed to be “at-the-market distributions” as defined in National Instrument 44-102 — Shelf Distributions (an “ATM Distribution”); (ii) in the case of Warrants, the number of Warrants offered, the offering price, whether the Warrants are being offered for cash, the designation, the number and the terms of the Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants, any procedures that will result in the adjustment of these

numbers, the exercise price, the dates and periods of exercise, and any other terms specific to the Warrants being offered; (iii) in the case of Debt Securities, the specific designation of the Debt Securities, any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities, the currency, the maturity, the offering price, whether payment on the Debt Securities will be senior or subordinated to the other liabilities and obligations of the Corporation, whether the Debt Securities will bear interest, the interest rate or the manner of determination thereof, any interest payment date(s), covenants, events of default, any terms of redemption, any conversion or exchange rights and any other specific terms of the Debt Securities; (iv) in the case of the Subscription Receipts, the number of Subscription Receipts offered, the offering price, the terms, conditions and procedures for the conversion of such Subscription Receipts into Common Shares and/or other securities of the Corporation and any other specific terms of the Subscription Receipts; and (v) in the case of Units, the designation and terms of the Units and of the securities comprising the Units and any other specific terms. Where required by statute, regulation or policy, and where Securities are offered in currencies other than Canadian dollars, appropriate disclosure of foreign exchange rates applicable to the Securities will be included in the Prospectus Supplement describing the Securities.
For greater certainty, sales of Common Shares may be effected under this Prospectus from time to time in one or more ATM Distributions under a Prospectus Supplement; however, no sale of Common Shares may be effected under this Prospectus by a Selling Shareholder in an ATM Distribution.
This Prospectus does not qualify the issuance of Debt Securities in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to one or more underlying interests including, for example, an equity or debt security, a statistical measure of economic or financial performance including, but not limited to, any currency, consumer price or mortgage index, or the price or value of one or more commodities, indices or other items or any other item or formula, or any combination or basket of the foregoing items, other than as required to provide for an interest rate that is adjusted for inflation. For greater certainty, this Prospectus may qualify the issuance of Debt Securities in respect of which the payment of principal and/or interest may be determined, in whole or in part, by reference to published rates of a central banking authority or one or more financial institutions, such as a prime rate or a bankers’ acceptance rate, or to recognized market benchmark interest rates.
All information permitted under applicable law to be omitted from this Prospectus will be contained in one or more Prospectus Supplements that will be delivered to purchasers together with this Prospectus to the extent required under applicable securities laws. Each Prospectus Supplement will be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus for the purposes of securities legislation as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and only for the purposes of the distribution of the Securities to which the Prospectus Supplement pertains.
The Corporation and the Selling Shareholder(s) may offer and sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals and may also sell directly to one or more purchasers or through agents or pursuant to applicable statutory exemptions. See “Plan of Distribution”. The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify, if applicable, each underwriter, dealer or agent, as the case may be, engaged by the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder(s) in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, including, to the extent applicable, any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, the method of distribution of the Securities, the identity of the Selling Shareholder(s), if any, the initial issue price (in the event that the offering is a fixed price distribution), the proceeds that the Corporation or the Selling Shareholder(s) will, or expects to, receive and any other material terms of the plan of distribution.
The Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices or at non-fixed prices.
If offered on a non-fixed price basis, the Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices determined by reference to the prevailing price of a specified Security in a specified market or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, the compensation payable to an underwriter, dealer or agent in connection, if applicable, with any such sale will be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate price paid for Securities by the purchasers is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriter, dealer or agent to the Corporation. The price at which the Securities will be offered and sold may vary from purchaser to purchaser and during the period of distribution.
In connection with any offering of Securities (other than an ATM Distribution), unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, may over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Securities at a level other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time. A purchaser who acquires Securities forming part of the underwriters’, dealers’ or agents’ over-allocation position acquires those Securities under this Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement relating to the particular offering of Securities, regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the over-allotment option or secondary market purchases. No underwriter, dealer or agent involved in an ATM Distribution of any of the Securities under a Prospectus Supplement, and no affiliate of any such underwriter, dealer or agent, and no person acting jointly or in concert with any such underwriter, dealer or agent, will over-allot

any Securities in connection with their distribution or effect any other transaction that is intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities being distributed. See “Plan of Distribution”.
The outstanding Common Shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol “PRN” and on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “PROF”. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, no Securities, other than Common Shares, will be listed on any securities exchange.
The head and registered office of the Corporation is located at 2400 Skymark Avenue, Unit 6, Mississauga, Ontario, L4W 5K5.
The Corporation is permitted, under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the United States (“MJDS”), to prepare this Prospectus in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. Prospective purchasers in the United States should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. The financial statements included or incorporated by reference herein have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS Accounting Standards”), including IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as applicable to the preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements, and may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies. The Corporation’s annual consolidated financial statements are subject to audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) and our auditor is required to be independent with respect to the Corporation within the meaning of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario Code of Professional Conduct and the Rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the requirements of PCAOB Rule 3520, Auditor Independence.
The enforcement by purchasers of civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Corporation is governed by the laws of Ontario, Canada, that some or all of its officers and directors are residents of a foreign country, that some or all of the experts named in this Prospectus are, and the underwriters, dealers or agents named in any Prospectus Supplement may be, residents of a foreign country, and a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation and said persons may be located outside of the United States.
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC NOR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.
Prospective purchasers should be aware that the acquisition of the Securities may have tax consequences in Canada and the United States. Such consequences for purchasers who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be described fully herein or in any applicable Prospectus Supplement. Prospective purchasers should read the tax discussion contained in this Prospectus under the heading “Certain Income Tax Considerations” as well as the tax discussion, if any, contained in the applicable Prospectus Supplement with respect to a particular offering of Securities.
No securities regulatory authority has approved or disapproved these Securities, or determined if this Prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence.
No underwriter has been involved in the preparation of this Prospectus nor has any underwriter performed any review of the contents of this Prospectus.
Investing in the Securities involves certain risks. Prospective purchasers of the Securities should carefully consider all the information in this Prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus.

Profound is an early commercial-stage medical device company focused on the development and marketing of customizable, incision-free therapeutic systems for the image guided ablation of diseased tissue using its platform technologies and leveraging the healthcare system’s existing imaging infrastructure. The Corporation’s leading product (the “TULSA-PRO® System”) combines real-time MRI, robotically-driven transurethral sweeping-action thermal ultrasound with closed-loop temperature feedback control for the ablation of prostate tissue. The product is comprised of one-time-use devices and durable equipment that are used in conjunction with a customer’s existing MRI scanner.
The TULSA-PRO® System, which in August 2019 received FDA clearance as a Class II device in the United States for thermal ablation of prescribed prostate tissue, using transurethral ultrasound ablation (“TULSA”) based on the Corporation’s TULSA-PRO® System whole gland ablation pivotal clinical trial (“TACT”), and is also CE marked in the European Union (“EU”) for ablation of targeted prostate tissue (benign or malignant). The TULSA-PRO® System was approved by Health Canada in November 2019.
Profound believes that, based on its TACT clinical data and additional studies conducted in the EU, physicians may elect to use the TULSA-PRO® System to ablate benign or malignant prostate tissue in patients with a variety of prostate diseases. Prostate diseases include prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (“BPH”).
Profound initiated the commercial launch of its lead product, the TULSA-PRO® System in the United States in Q4 2019, treating the first patient in a non-trial setting in January 2020. On June 2, 2023, Profound announced three new CPT Category 1 Codes from the American Medical Association for TULSA to treat prostate diseases, which will be effective January 1, 2025. TULSA-PRO® procedures remain primarily privately paid by patients. As Profound recently announced, the temporary CPT code C9734 has been extended for use in the Ambulatory Surgical Center (“ASC”) setting, and TULSA-PRO® has been assigned device-intensive status.
In addition, Profound continues to support additional clinical trials in the United States and abroad to further increase the body of clinical evidence that may be needed particularly for reimbursement and coverage of our technologies by private and government healthcare providers. Profound continues to expand the compatibility of its TULSA-PRO® System with additional MRI brands to broaden its ability to utilize the global MRI installed base and seek regulatory approvals of its products in additional international jurisdictions.
Profound is also conducting CAPTAIN (A Comparison of TULSA Procedure vs. Radical Prostatectomy in Participants with Localized Prostate Cancer), which is a prospective, multi-centre randomized controlled trial of 201 patients aimed at comparing the safety and efficacy of the TULSA procedure (performed with the TULSA-PRO® system) with radical prostatectomy in men with organ-confined, intermediate-risk, Gleason Score 7 (Grade Group 2 and 3) prostate cancer. Profound is currently recruiting patients for the CAPTAIN trial and the Corporation expects interim results in 1H 2025.
Profound is also continuing to build TULSA-AI, which is a set of software modules designed to achieve continuous improvement in clinical outcomes, ablation planning, treatment time reduction, and workflow ease of use optimization:

Thermal boost, Profound’s first TULSA-AI module, allows a TULSA surgeon to provide extra heat at a tumor region if they suspect that there is extra capsular involvement or protuberance of the prostate tissue into the muscle of the patient. On September 25, 2023, Profound received FDA 510(k) clearance for the TULSA-PRO thermal boost. The TULSA-PRO thermal boost has demonstrated successful application in the following clinical situations: boosting the MRI-visible lesion to ensure
 
6

 
reliable heating to the capsule, boosting in regions with larger prostate radii, and boosting if the lethal heat did not initially reach the target boundary.

Profound is also developing the TULSA PRO® contouring assistant, a TULSA-AI module for automating the TULSA treatment design, which is in the clinical validation phase for FDA submission. Profound expects to file for FDA clearance for the TULSA-PRO® contouring assistant in Q1 2024.

In addition, Profound is developing a BPH-specific application using the core TULSA technology. This new BPH application will also use the TULSA-AI automated treatment design capability, which will allow Profound’s surgeons to custom design the treatment plan. Profound is seeking to gain FDA clearance for this module in late 2024.
Profound’s second product, the Sonalleve® system, is CE marked in the EU for the treatment of uterine fibroids and palliative pain relief associated with metastases in bone and has also been approved by the National Medical Products Association, the regulatory body in China, for non-invasive treatment of uterine fibroids. In late 2020, Sonalleve® received Humanitarian Device Exemption approval from the FDA for the treatment of Osteoid Osteoma in the United States. The Sonalleve® system is only compatible with certain Philips MRIs.
Profound deploys a recurring revenue business model in the United States to market the TULSA-PRO® System, charging on a per patient basis that includes the supply of our one-time-use devices, use of the system, as well as Profound’s customer and technological support (“Genius”) services that support each TULSA center with clinical and patient recruitment. Profound is marketing the Sonalleve® product primarily outside North America in European and Asian countries, deploying a capital sales model. For both products, outside of North America, Profound generates most of its revenues from sales of its system in Europe and Asia, where the Corporation deploys a more traditional hybrid business model, charging for the system separately as a capital sale and an additional per patient charge for the one-time-use devices and associated Genius services.
Profound believes TULSA has the potential to be a versatile technology for prostate disease with an estimated total addressable market in the U.S. of approximately 600,000 patients, including addressable new prostate cancer patients and addressable patients with both prostate cancer and BPH or severe BPH cases that typically require surgical intervention, representing an estimated $4.8 billion per year addressable market.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Corporation may from time to time during the 25-month period that this Prospectus, including any amendments thereto, remains valid, offer for sale and issue up to an aggregate of US$150,000,000 in Securities hereunder. To the extent there are any Secondary Offerings, the aggregate amount of Securities that may be offered and sold by the Corporation hereunder shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of such Secondary Offerings.
The Corporation may offer and sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals and may also sell directly to one or more purchasers or through agents or pursuant to applicable statutory exemptions. The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent, as the case may be, engaged by the Corporation in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, the Selling Shareholder(s), if any, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, including, to the extent applicable, any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, the method of distribution of the Securities, the initial issue price, the proceeds that the Corporation will receive and any other material terms of the plan of distribution. Any initial offering price and discounts, concessions or commissions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.
Similarly, one or more Selling Shareholders may sell Common Shares to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals and may also sell the Common Shares to one or more purchasers directly, through statutory exemptions, or through agents designated from time to time. See “Selling Shareholders”.
In addition, Securities may be offered and issued in consideration for the acquisition of other businesses, assets or securities by the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries. The consideration for any such acquisition may consist of the Securities separately, a combination of Securities or any combination of, among other things, Securities, cash and assumption of liabilities.
Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices or at prices which may be changed or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing prices or at negotiated prices. The price at which the Securities will be offered and sold may vary from purchaser to purchaser and during the period of distribution.
In connection with the sale of the Securities, underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation from the Corporation or from other parties, including in the form of underwriters’, dealers’ or agents’ fees, commissions or concessions. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the Securities may be deemed to be underwriters for the purposes of applicable Canadian securities legislation and any such compensation received by them from the Corporation and any profit on the resale of the Securities by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions.
In connection with any offering of Securities (other than an ATM distribution), except as otherwise set out in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities, the underwriters, dealers or
 
8

 
agents, as the case may be, may over-allot or effect transactions intended to fix, stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Securities at a level other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time. No underwriter, dealer or agent involved in an ATM Distribution of any of the Securities under a Prospectus Supplement, and no affiliate of any such underwriter, dealer or agent, and no person acting jointly or in concert with any such underwriter, dealer or agent, will over-allot any Securities in connection with their distribution or effect any other transaction that is intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities being distributed.
No sale of Common Shares may be effected under this Prospectus by a Selling Shareholder in an ATM Distribution.
Underwriters, dealers or agents who participate in the distribution of the Securities may be entitled, under agreements to be entered into with the Corporation, to indemnification by the Corporation against certain liabilities, including liabilities under Canadian securities legislation and the U.S. Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof. Such underwriters, dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, the Corporation in the ordinary course of business.
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, each series or issue of Securities (other than Common Shares) will be a new issue of Securities with no established trading market. Accordingly, there is currently no market through which the Securities (other than Common Shares) may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell such Securities purchased under this Prospectus. This may affect the pricing of such Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of such Securities and the extent of issuer regulation. See “Risk Factors”.
This Prospectus constitutes a public offering of these Securities only in those jurisdictions where they may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such Securities.
EARNINGS COVERAGE RATIO
Earnings coverage ratios will be provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to any offering of Debt Securities having a term to maturity in excess of one year, as required by applicable Canadian securities laws.

Subscription Receipts may be offered separately or together with Securities. The Subscription Receipts will be issued under one or more subscription receipt agreements that will be entered into by the Corporation and an escrow agent at the time of issuance of the Subscription Receipts.
A Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive a Common Share and/or other Securities, for no additional consideration, upon the completion of a particular transaction or event, typically an acquisition of the assets or securities of another entity by the Corporation or one or more of its subsidiaries.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
The Corporation is governed by the laws of Ontario and its principal place of business is outside the United States. The majority of the directors and officers of the Corporation and the experts named herein are resident outside of the United States and a substantial portion of the Corporation’s assets and the assets of such persons are located outside of the United States. Consequently, it may be difficult for United States purchasers to effect service of process within the United States on the Corporation, its directors or officers or such experts, or to realize in the United States on judgments of courts of the United States predicated on civil liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act. Purchasers should not assume that Canadian courts would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against the Corporation or such persons predicated on the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws or the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state within the United States or would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against the Corporation or such persons predicated on the United States federal securities or any such state securities or “blue sky” laws.
The Corporation filed with the SEC, concurrently with the Registration Statement, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, the Corporation appointed Profound Medical (U.S.) Inc. as its agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against or involving the Corporation in a United States court, arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of Securities under the Registration Statement.
PURCHASERS’ STATUTORY AND CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS
Unless provided otherwise in a Prospectus Supplement, the following is a description of a purchaser’s statutory rights. Securities legislation in certain of the provinces of Canada provides purchasers with the right to withdraw from an agreement to purchase securities. This right may be exercised within two business days after receipt or deemed receipt of a prospectus and any amendment. In several of the provinces, the securities legislation further provides a purchaser with remedies for rescission or, in some jurisdictions, revision of the price, or damages if the prospectus and any amendment contains a misrepresentation or is not delivered to the purchaser, provided that the remedies for rescission, revision of the price, or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the province in which the purchaser resides. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the province in which the purchaser resides for the particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor. However, purchasers of Securities distributed under an ATM Distribution by the Corporation do not have the right to withdraw from an agreement to purchase the Securities and do not have remedies of rescission or, in some jurisdictions, revisions of the price, or damages for non-delivery of the prospectus, prospectus supplement, and any amendment relating to the Securities purchased by such purchaser because the prospectus, prospectus supplement, and any amendment relating to the Securities purchased by such purchaser will not be sent or delivered, as permitted under Part 9 of National Instrument 44-102 — Shelf Distributions.
Securities legislation in some provinces and territories of Canada further provides purchasers with remedies for rescission or, in some jurisdictions, revisions of the price or damages if the prospectus, prospectus supplement, and any amendment relating to securities purchased by a purchaser contains a misrepresentation. Those remedies must be exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by securities legislation. Any remedies under securities legislation that a purchaser of Securities distributed under an ATM Distribution by the Corporation may have against the Corporation or its agents for rescission or, in some jurisdictions, revisions of the price, or damages if the prospectus, prospectus supplement, and any amendment relating to securities purchased by a purchaser contain a misrepresentation will remain unaffected by the non-delivery of the prospectus referred to above.
Original Canadian purchasers of Securities which are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into other securities of the Corporation will have a contractual right of rescission against the Corporation in respect of the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Securities. The contractual right of rescission will entitle such original Canadian purchasers to receive the amount paid for such Securities (and any additional amount paid upon conversion, exchange or exercise), upon surrender of the underlying securities acquired upon such conversion, exchange or exercise, in the event that this Prospectus, the applicable Prospectus Supplement or any amendment contains a misrepresentation, provided that: (i) the conversion, exchange
 
14

 
or exercise takes place within 180 days of the date of the purchase of the convertible, exchangeable or exercisable security under this Prospectus; and (ii) the right of rescission is exercised within 180 days of the date of the purchase of the convertible, exchangeable or exercisable security under this Prospectus. This contractual right of rescission will be consistent with the statutory right of rescission described under section 130 of the Securities Act (Ontario), and is in addition to any other right or remedy available to original purchasers under section 130 of the Securities Act (Ontario) or otherwise at law. In an offering of Securities which are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into other securities of the Corporation, prospective purchasers are cautioned that the statutory right of action for damages for a misrepresentation contained in a prospectus is limited, in certain provincial securities legislation, to the amount paid for the Securities. This means that, under the securities legislation of certain provinces, if the purchaser pays additional amounts upon conversion, exchange or exercise of the security, those amounts may not be recoverable under the statutory right of action for damages that applies in those provinces. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province for the particulars of this right of action for damages or consult with a legal advisor. This contractual right of rescission does not extend to holders of Securities who acquire such Securities from an initial purchaser, on the open market or otherwise.
AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS
Messrs. Arthur Rosenthal, Brian Ellacott and Arun Menawat, directors of the Corporation, reside outside of Canada. Messrs. Rosenthal and Ellacott have appointed the Corporation as their agent for service of process in Ontario. Purchasers are advised that it may not be possible for prospective purchasers to enforce judgements obtained in Canada against a person that resides outside of Canada, even if such person has appointed an agent for service of process. The Corporation’s head office is located at 2400 Skymark Avenue, Unit 6, Mississauga, Ontario, L4W 5K5.

(3)   A corporation shall not indemnify an individual under subsection (1) unless the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the corporation or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at the corporation’s request.
Same
(4)   In addition to the conditions set out in subsection (3), if the matter is a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the corporation shall not indemnify an individual under subsection (1) unless the individual had reasonable grounds for believing that the individual’s conduct was lawful.
Derivative Actions
(4.1)   A corporation may, with the approval of a court, indemnify an individual referred to in subsection (1), or advance moneys under subsection (2), in respect of an action by or on behalf of the corporation or other entity to obtain a judgment in its favor, to which the individual is made a party because of the individual’s association with the corporation or other entity as described in subsection (1), against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with such action, if the individual fulfils the conditions set out in subsection (3).
Right to indemnity
(4.2)   Despite subsection (1), an individual referred to in that subsection is entitled to indemnity from the corporation in respect of all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with the defense of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding to which the individual is subject because of the individual’s association with the corporation or other entity as described in subsection (1), if the individual seeking an indemnity,
(a)   was not judged by a court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the individual ought to have done; and
(b)   fulfils the conditions set out in subsections (3) and (4).
 
II-1

 
Nothing in the articles of incorporation, by-laws or resolutions of the Registrant limits the right of any person entitled to claim indemnity apart from the indemnity provided pursuant to Section 136 of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).
The Registrant maintains a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance which insures, subject to certain exclusions, directors and officers for losses as a result of claims against the directors and officers of the Registrant in their capacity as directors and officers and also reimburses the Registrant for payments made pursuant to the indemnity provisions under the by-laws of the Registrant and the Securities Act.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
