AND WHEREAS pursuant to the Voting Trust Agreement, the Shareholder has agreed to deliver a power of attorney to enable the CEO (as defined in the Voting Trust Agreement) to execute the voting rights attached to all securities in the capital of the Company currently owned by the Shareholder or which the Shareholder may from time to time own (collectively, the "Shares"); and

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other valuable consideration, the Shareholder does hereby constitute and appoint the CEO as the true and lawful attorney for the Shareholder, and in the name, place and stead of the Shareholder, to (i) vote at and to execute and deliver any and all proxies relating to any meeting of shareholders of the Company, or any adjournments thereof, (ii) to execute on behalf of the Shareholder, any resolution or other document, agreement or other instrument in writing to be executed by the shareholders of the Company (except any amendment to the Voting Trust Agreement or this power of attorney), with respect to the Shares; and (iii) to execute and deliver any waiver, consent or amendment required, or in the CEO's judgement, desirable, to be delivered under any agreement respecting the Shares or as otherwise required by law, with respect to any rights and privileges attached to the Shares.

The provisions of this Power of Attorney relating to the Shares shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any shares or securities into which the Shares may be converted, exchanged, changed, reclassified, redesignated, subdivided or consolidated, any shares or securities which entitle the holder thereof to vote at any meeting of shareholders of the Company which may be distributed on the Shares as a stock dividend or otherwise and any shares or securities of the Company or of any successor corporation which may be received on or in respect of the Shares on a reorganization, amalgamation, consolidation or merger, statutory or otherwise.

This Power of Attorney shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia.

The execution of this Power of Attorney does not terminate any EPOA granted previously and this Power of Attorney is not terminated by the execution by the Shareholder in the future of a EPOA, and the Shareholder hereby agrees not to take any action that results in the termination of this Power of Attorney prior to the termination of the Voting Trust Agreement. Any proxy executed and delivered pursuant hereto relating to any meeting of shareholders or any adjournments thereof shall revoke any proxy otherwise executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Shareholder with respect to such meeting or any adjournments thereof, regardless of the respective dates thereof.
