2. acknowledges that the certificate(s) representing the Shares will bear a legend substantially in the following form:

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

 

3. represents, warrants and certifies that the Buyer:

(b)is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of NI 45-106 or Section 73.3 of the Securities Act (Ontario) on the basis that the undersigned fits within one of the categories of an accredited investor reproduced in Appendix “A” beside which the undersigned has initialed, thereby indicating the undersigned belongs to such category;
 
A-2

(d)it understands that an investment in the Shares may have tax consequences under applicable laws and it has been encouraged to obtain independent legal, income tax and investment advice with respect to its purchase of the Shares and accordingly, has had the opportunity to acquire an understanding of the meanings of all terms contained herein relevant to the Buyer for purposes of giving representations, warranties and covenants under this Representation Letter and the Agreement; and
(e)consents to the Company making a notation in its records or giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Shares in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth herein;

The Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States unless registered in accordance with United States federal securities laws and all applicable state securities laws or exemptions from such requirements are available;

5. during the 40 day distribution compliance period (as defined in Regulation S (the “Distribution Compliance Period”)), i.e. during the 40 days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser will not offer or sell any of the Shares in the United States of America or to a U.S. Person unless such Shares are registered under the U.S. Securities Act, and the securities laws of all applicable states of the United States of America or an exemption from such registration requirements is available. Accordingly, during the Distribution Compliance Period, the Shares may only be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred: (a) to the Company; (b) outside the United States to, or for the account or benefit of, non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act; (c) in accordance with an available exemption from the registration requirement of the U.S. Securities Act; or (d) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act, and, in each case, in compliance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction; and

6. represents, warrants and certifies that the Buyer:

(a)is not a “U.S. Person” (as that term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act), and is not purchasing the Shares for the account of or benefit of a U.S. Person; and is a resident of, or is otherwise subject to the laws of, the jurisdiction referred to on the execution page of this Representation Letter, which address is the residence or place of business of the Buyer and was not created or used solely for the purpose of acquiring the Shares;

(d)acknowledges that the Company is not obligated to file and has no present intention to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or with any state securities administrator a registration statement in respect of resales of the Shares in the United States; and
(e)it is aware that its ability to enforce civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by, among other things, the fact that: (i) the Company is organized under the laws of Canada; (ii) some of the directors and officers of the Company are residents of countries other than the United States; and (iii) a substantial portion of the assets of the Company and said persons may be located outside the United States.

The foregoing representations, warranties, acknowledgements and covenants will be true and correct both as of the execution of this Representation Letter and as of the time of the trade in respect of which this Representation Letter is being provided to the Seller, and such representations, warranties, acknowledgements and covenants will survive the completion of the Buyer’s purchase of the Shares from the Seller.

The foregoing representations, warranties, acknowledgements and covenants are made by the undersigned with the intent that they be relied upon in determining the suitability of the undersigned as a buyer of the Shares and the undersigned undertakes to immediately notify the Seller and the Company of any change in any statement or other information relating to the Buyer set forth herein which takes place prior to the completion of the Buyer’s purchase of the Shares from the Seller.

Guidance on Accredited Investor Exemption

Financial Assets

For the purposes of the financial asset tests in Sections (j) and (j.1) above, “financial assets” are defined to mean cash, securities, or a contract of insurance, a deposit or an evidence of a deposit that is not a security for the purposes of securities legislation. These financial assets are generally liquid or relatively easy to liquidate. The value of a buyer’s personal residence is not included in a calculation of financial assets.

As a general matter, it should not be difficult to determine whether financial assets are beneficially owned by an individual, an individual’s spouse, or both, in any particular instance. However, in the case where financial assets are held in a trust or in another type of investment vehicle for the benefit of an individual there may be questions as to whether the individual beneficially owns the financial assets. The following factors are indicative of beneficial ownership of financial assets:

(a)physical or constructive possession of evidence of ownership of the financial asset;
(b)entitlement to receipt of any income generated by the financial asset;
(c)risk of loss of the value of the financial asset; and
(d)the ability to dispose of the financial asset or otherwise deal with it as the individual sees fit.
 
A-8

For example, securities held in a self-directed RRSP, for the sole benefit of an individual, are beneficially owned by that individual. In general, financial assets in a spousal RRSP would also be included for the purposes of the $1,000,000 financial asset test in Section (j) because it takes into account financial assets owned beneficially by a spouse. However, financial assets in a spousal RRSP would not be included for purposes of the $5,000,000 financial asset test in Section (j). Financial assets held in a group RRSP under which the individual does not have the ability to acquire the financial assets and deal with them directly would not meet the beneficial ownership requirements in either Sections (j) or (j.1).

Net Assets

By comparison, the net asset test under Sections (l) to (m) means all of the Buyer’s total assets minus all of the Buyer’s total liabilities. Accordingly, for the purposes of the net asset test, the calculation of total assets would include the value of a buyer’s personal residence and the calculation of total liabilities would include the amount of any liability (such as a mortgage) in respect of the Buyer’s personal residence.

To calculate a buyer’s net assets under the net asset test, subtract the Buyer’s total liabilities from the Buyer’s total assets. The value attributed to assets should reasonably reflect their estimated fair value. Income tax should be considered a liability if the obligation to pay it is outstanding at the time of the distribution of the security.
