MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR


SOLICITATION OF PROXIES


THIS MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR (“MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR”) IS PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOLICITATION BY MANAGEMENT OF TITAN TRADING ANALYTICS INC. (THE “COMPANY”) of proxies from the holders of Common Shares (the “Common Shares”) for the annual general and special meeting of the shareholders of the Company (the “Meeting”) to be held on Friday, April 22, 2005 at 2:00 p.m. at Suite #13, 18104 – 102nd Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta, or at any adjournment thereof for the purposes set out in the accompanying notice of meeting (the “Notice of Meeting”).


Although it is expected that the solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone, facsimile or other proxy solicitation services. In accordance with National Instrument 54-101, arrangements have been made with brokerage houses and other intermediaries, clearing agencies, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of the Common Shares (as defined below) held of record by such persons and the Company may reimburse such persons for reasonable fees and disbursements incurred by them in doing so. The costs thereof will be borne by the Company.


APPOINTMENT AND REVOCATION OF POXIES


The persons named (the “Management Designees”) in the enclosed instrument of proxy (“Instrument of Proxy”) have been selected by the directors of the Company and have indicated their willingness to represent as proxy the shareholder who appoints them. A shareholder has the right to designate a person (whom need not be a shareholder) other than the Management Designees to represent him or her at the Meeting. Such right may be exercised by inserting in the space provided for that purpose on the Instrument of Proxy the name of the person to be designated and by deleting therefrom the names of the management Designees, or by completing another proper form of proxy and delivering the same to the transfer agent of the Company. Such shareholder should notify the nominee of the appointment, obtain the nominee’s consent to act as proxy and should provide instructions on how the shareholder’s shares are to be voted. The nominee should bring personal identification with him to the Meeting. In any case, the form of proxy should be dated and executed by the shareholder or an attorney authorized in writing, with proof of such authorization attached (where an attorney executed the proxy form). In addition, a proxy may be revoked by a shareholder personally attending at the Meeting and voting his shares.


A form of proxy will not be valid for the Meeting or any adjournment thereof unless it is completed and delivered to the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 9th Floor, 100 University Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5J 2Y1, or by fax at 1-866-249-7775 (within North America) prior to 2:00 p.m., Edmonton time, on Wednesday, April 20, 2005, being at least forty-eight (48) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, before the time of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Late proxies may be accepted or rejected by the Chairman of the Meeting in his discretion, and the Chairman is under no obligation to accept or reject any particular late proxy.


A shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it as to any matter upon which a vote has not already been cast pursuant to the authority conferred by the proxy. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by depositing an instrument in writing executed by the shareholder or by his authorized attorney in writing, or, if the shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized, either at the registered office of the Company or with Computershare Trust Company of Canada, Proxy Department, 9th Floor, 100 University Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5J 2Y, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used, or by depositing the instrument in writing with the Chairman of such Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof. In addition, a proxy may be revoked by the shareholder personally attending the Meeting and voting his shares.


ADVICE TO BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDERS


The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many shareholders, as a substantial number of shareholders do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through their brokers, intermediaries, trustees or other persons, or who otherwise do not hold their Common Shares in their own name (referred to in the Management Information Circular as “Beneficial Shareholders”) should note that only proxies deposited by shareholders who appear on the records maintained by the Company’s registrar and transfer agent as registered holders of Common Shares will be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Beneficial Shareholder by a broker, those Common Shares will, in all likelihood, not be registered in the shareholder’s name. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the shareholder’s broker or an agent of that broker.  In Canada, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depository for Securities, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). Common Shares held by brokers (or their agents or nominees) on behalf of a broker’s client can only be voted (for or against resolutions) at the direction of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, brokers and their agents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares for the broker’s clients. Therefore, each Beneficial Shareholder should ensure that voting instructions are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.


Existing regulatory policy requires brokers and other intermediaries to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders’ meetings. The various brokers and other intermediaries have their own mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the meeting. The form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker (or the agent of the broker) is substantially similar to the Instrument of Proxy provided directly to registered shareholders by the Company. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the registered Shareholder (i.e. the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The vast majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to ADP Investor Communications (“ADP”) in Canada. ADP typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the forms to ADP, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to ADP (by way of the Internet or telephone, for example). ADP then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder who receives an ADP voting instruction form cannot use that form to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting. The voting instruction forms must be returned to ADP (or instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares must otherwise be communicated to ADP) well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted. If you have any questions respecting the voting of Common Shares held through a broker or other intermediary, please contact that broker or other intermediary for assistance.


Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of his broker, a Beneficial Shareholder may attend the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered shareholder and vote the Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered shareholder, should enter their own names in the blank space on the form of proxy provided to them and return the same to their broker (or the broker’s agent) in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker.


All reference to shareholders in this Management Information Circular and the accompanying Instrument of Proxy and Notice of Meeting are to registered shareholders unless specifically stated otherwise.

VOTING OF PROXIES


Each shareholder may instruct his proxy how to vote his Common Shares by completing the blanks on the Instrument of Proxy. All Common Shares represented at the Meeting by properly executed proxies will be voted or withheld from voting (including the voting on any ballot), and where a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon has been specified in the Instrument of Proxy, the Common Shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with such specification. In the absence of any such specification as to voting on the Instrument of Proxy, the Management Designees, if named as proxy, will vote in favour of the matters set out therein. In the absence of any specification as to voting on any other form of proxy, the Common Shares represented by such form of proxy will be voted in favour of the matters set out therein.


The enclosed Instrument of Proxy confers discretionary authority upon the Management Designees, or other persons named as proxy, with respect to amendments to or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and any other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. As of the date hereof, the Company is not aware of any amendments to, variations of or other matters that may come before the Meeting. In the event that other matters come before the Meeting, then the Management Designees intend to vote in accordance with the judgment of management of the Company.


QUORUM


The by-laws of the Company provide that a quorum of shareholders is present at a meeting of shareholders of the Company if at least two persons are present in person or by proxy representing not less than one-twentieth (5%) of the outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to be voted at the meeting.


VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HODERS THEREOF


The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 Common Shares. As at the effective date of this Management Information Circular (the “Effective Date”), which is March 14, 2005, the Company has 18,640,373 Common Shares without nominal or par value outstanding. There are no other shares authorized, issued or outstanding. The Common Shares are the only shares entitled to be voted at the Meeting, and holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote for each Common Share held.


Holders of Common Shares of record at the close of business on March 14, 2005 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to vote such Common Shares at the Meeting on the basis of one vote for each Common Share held except to the extent that, (a) the holder has transferred the ownership of any of his Common Shares after the Record Date, and (b) the transferee of those Common Shares produces properly endorsed share certificates, or otherwise establishes that he owns the Common Shares, and demands not later than (10) days before the day of the Meeting that his name be included in the list of persons entitled to vote at the Meeting, in which case the transferee will be entitled to vote his Common Shares at the Meeting.


To the knowledge of the directors and the executive officers of the Company, as at the Effective Date, no person or company beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or controls or directs, voting securities carrying 10% or more of the voting rights attached to any class of voting securities of the Company except as follows:

At the Meeting, it will be proposed that five (5) directors be elected to hold office until the next annual general meeting or until their successors are elected or appointed. Unless otherwise directed, it is the intention of the Management Designees, if named as proxy, to vote in favour of the ordinary resolution fixing the number of directors to be elected at the Meeting at five (5).

Approval of Amended Stock Option Plan


The purpose of the Corporation’s Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) is to afford persons who provide services to the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, whether they be directors, officers, employees, management company employees, or consultants, an opportunity to obtain a proprietary interest in the Company by permitting them to purchase Common Shares of the Company and to aid in attracting, as well as retaining and encouraging the continued involvement of such persons with the Company.  


Under the terms of the Plan, the board of directors may grant options to acquire Common Shares exercisable at a price which is not less than the discounted market price of the Common Shares at the time the option is granted in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange policies, for a term not to exceed five years from the date of their grant, subject to earlier expiration upon termination of office or employment.


Under the Plan, a stock option is non-assignable and vests on the dates set by the directors, in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange policies, which do not allow vesting over a period of less than 18 months or vesting schedules which permit a majority of the shares to be released early in the vesting period rather than equally on a quarterly basis.


All rights to purchase Shares pursuant to the Plan terminate (i) within 90 days of the optionee ceasing to be a director, officer, employee, management company employee, or consultant, or (ii) within 12 months after the death of an optionee, unless exercised within that period.


The shareholders of the Company approved the Plan on April 30, 2004, which allowed for a maximum of 2,210,593 shares to be reserved for issuance under the Plan.


Subject to Shareholder and regulatory approval, the Company wishes to amend the Plan to increase the maximum number of Common Shares which may be reserved for issuance thereunder to 3,728,075, provided that at no time will the number of stock options granted exceed 20% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company. All stock options granted under the Plan will continue to adhere to TSX Venture Exchange policies and guidelines.  A copy of the Plan, including the proposed amendments, is attached hereto as Exhibit “I”.


TSX Venture Exchange policies require that a stock option plan reserving for issuance more than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of a corporation must specify a maximum number of shares issuable under it and cannot have a rolling maximum, such as a specified percentage of the listed and outstanding shares from time to time. In addition, TSX Venture Exchange policies require that corporations obtain shareholder approval in order to change the maximum number of shares issuable under this type of stock option plan. In order to be carried, an ordinary resolution approving the amendment must be passed, with or without modification, by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the resolution by Shareholders present in person or by proxy at the Meeting.


The text of the ordinary resolution to be considered at the Meeting will substantially be as follows:


“BE IT RESOLVED AS AN ORDINARY RESOLUTION THAT:


1.

the Company’s Stock Option Plan originally approved on April 30, 2004 be amended to increase the maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan to 3,728,075, maintaining that at no time shall the number of stock options outstanding exceed 20% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company;


2.

the directors of the Company be authorized to make amendments to the Stock Option Plan, from time to time, as may, in their discretion, be considered necessary or advisable or required by the TSX Venture Exchange to have the Stock Option Plan comply with all applicable regulatory requirements;  


3.

this ordinary resolution may be revoked by the directors of the Company in their discretion by resolution without further approval, ratification or confirmation by the Shareholders at any time and in such case, the directors of the Corporation are hereby authorized to abandon the above described amendment to the Stock Option Plan of the Corporation without further approval, ratification or confirmation by the Shareholders of the Corporation, and in such case, this ordinary resolution shall be deemed to have been rescinded; and


4.

any one director or officer of the Corporation be and he is hereby authorized and directed to perform all such acts, deeds and things and execute all such documents and other writings as may be required to give effect to this resolution.”


6.

The ordinary resolution will be voted on by the shareholders of the Company on the basis of the “Majority of the Minority” test, which requires that the resolution be passed by at least a 50 percent (50%) plus one vote of the votes cast by the “minority shareholders” of the Company. The “minority shareholders” are all shareholders of the Company, other than those persons who have been granted options as outlined in the table above.


The text of the ordinary resolution to be considered at the Meeting will substantially be as follows:


“WHEREAS pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange Policy 4.4, section 2.9, on March 1, 2005 the board of directors of the Company granted 1,250,000 stock options, in the aggregate, at an exercise price of $0.25 per Common Share, to certain directors, officers and consultants; and


WHEREAS the options granted vest over an 18-month period and expire within five years from the date of the grant;


RESOLVED THAT:


1.

the Company grant 1,250,000 stock options, in the aggregate, at an exercise price of $0.25 per Common Share to directors, officers and consultants as outlined in the Management Proxy and Information Circular dated March 14, 2005; and


2.

the options granted shall vest over an 18-month period and expire within five years from the date of the grant.”


7.

Approval of Continuance of the Company into the Province of Alberta


The shareholders of the Company will be asked to consider and, if thought fit, approve and adopt a special resolution authorizing the board of directors, in its sole discretion, to apply for the discontinuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia and to continue the Company into the Province of Alberta (the “Continuance”). In addition, the shareholders of the Company will be asked to consider, and if thought fit, approve, with or without amendment, the form of Certificate of Incorporation and Articles of Incorporation of the Company to be filed in Alberta as required in connection with the continuance and a form of by-laws of the Company which comply with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the “ABCA”).


The Continuance will affect certain of the rights of shareholders as they currently exist under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BC Act”). Shareholders should consult their legal advisors regarding implications of the Continuance which may be of particular importance to them.


Procedure in British Columbia for the Continuance


In order for the Continuance to become effective:


(a)

The shareholders of the Company must authorize by special resolution the application by the Company (the “Continuance Application”) to the Registrar of Corporations for the Province of Alberta, requesting that the Company be continued as if it had been incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta;


(b)

The registrar (“Registrar”) of corporations under the BC Act must approve the proposed Continuance into the Province of Alberta, upon being satisfied that the Continuance will not adversely affect creditors or shareholders of the Company;


(c)

The Company must file the Notice of Continuance with the Registrar, who will then issue a Certificate of Discontinuance;


(d)

On the date shown on the Certificate of Discontinuance, the Company becomes an extra-provincial corporation as if it had been incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta;


(i)

the property of the Company continues to be the property of the body corporate;


(ii)

the body corporate continues to be liable for the obligations of the Company;


(iii)

an existing cause of action, claim or liability to prosecution is unaffected;


(iv)

a civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding pending by or against the Company may be continued to be prosecuted by or against the body corporate; and


(v)

a conviction against, a ruling, order of judgment in favour of or against the Company may be enforced by or against the body corporate.


Effect of Continuance


Assuming that the special resolution relating to the Continuance is approved by the shareholders at the Meeting, it is expected that a Continuance Application will be filed with the Registrar and the procedures outlined above will begin as soon as practicable thereafter, as determined by the board of directors of the Company in its sole discretion, in order to give effect to the Continuance.


On the effective date of the Continuance, holders of Common Shares of the Company will continue to hold one common share of the Company domiciled in the new jurisdiction for each common share held. The existing share certificates representing Common Shares of the Company’s stock will not be cancelled. Holders of convertible securities of the Company on the effective date of the Continuance will continue to hold convertible securities to purchase an identical number of Common Shares of the Company on substantially the same terms.


The principal attributes of the classes and series of the capital stock of the Company will be identical to those of the corresponding shares of the Company, other than differences in shareholders’ rights under the BC Act and the ABCA.


The Continuance, if approved, will affect a change in the legal domicile of the Company on the effective date thereof to the Province of Alberta, but the Company will not change its business or operations after the effective date of the Continuance.


The directors and officers of the Company, immediately following the Continuance, will be identical to the current directors and officers of the Company. As of the effective date of the Continuance, the election, duties, resignations and removal of the Company’s directors and officers shall be governed by the ABCA and the Company will no longer be subject to the corporate governance provisions of the BC Act.


By operation of law applicable under the laws of the Province of Alberta, as of the effective date of the Continuance, all of the assets, property, rights, liabilities and obligations of the Company immediately prior to the Continuance will continue to be the assets, property, rights, liabilities and obligations of the Company continued under the laws of the Province of Alberta. As required to receive authorization of the Continuance by the Registrar under the BC Act, on the effective date of the Continuance, the property of the Company will continue to be the property of the Company continued under the laws of the Province of Alberta; the Company will continue to be liable for the obligations of the Company; an existing cause of action, claim or liability to prosecution of the Company will be unaffected; a civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding pending by or against the Company may be continued to be prosecuted by or against the Company; and a conviction against the Company may be continued against the continued Company or ruling, order or judgment in favour of or against the Company may be enforced by or against the continued Company.


Reason for Continuance


The board of directors believes it is desirable for the Company to continue its corporate existence under the laws of the Province of Alberta. The principal business, head office and management of the Company will be located in the Province of Alberta. Management has therefore determined that it is appropriate to place before the Meeting a special resolution to approve the discontinuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia and to continue the Company into the Province of Alberta pursuant to the ABCA.


Comparison between BC and Alberta Corporate Law


The following is a summary only of certain differences between the ABCA, the statute that will govern the corporate affairs of the Company upon the Continuance, and the BC Act, the statute which currently governs the corporate affairs of the Company.


In approving the Continuance, the shareholders will be approving the adoption of the Continuance and Articles for the Company and will be agreeing to hold securities in a company governed by the ABCA. This Management Information Circular summarizes some of the differences that could materially affect the rights and obligations of shareholders after giving effect to the Continuance. In exercising their vote, shareholders should consider the distinctions between the ABCA and the BC Act, only some of which are outlined below.


Notwithstanding the alteration of shareholders’ rights and obligations under the ABCA and the proposed Continuance, the Company will still be bound by the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange Inc., the British Columbia Securities Commission and the Alberta Securities Commission, as well as any other applicable securities legislation.


Nothing that follows should be construed as legal advice to any particular shareholder, all of whom are advised to consult their own legal advisors respecting all of the implications of the Continuance.


Charter Documents


Under the BC Act, the charter documents consist of a “Notice of Articles”, which sets forth the name of the Company and the amount and type of authorized capital, and “Articles” (collectively, the “Charter Documents”). The Notice of Articles is filed with the Registrar and the articles are filed only with the Company’s registered and records office.


Under the ABCA, the Company has “articles”, which set forth the name of the Company and the amount and type of authorized capital, and “bylaws” which govern the management of the Company. The articles are filed with the Registrar of Corporations under the ABCA and the bylaws are filed only with the Company’s registered and records office.


If shareholders approve the Continuance under the ABCA, the Company will have unlimited authorized capital consisting of Common Shares and an unlimited number of preferred shares, issuable in one or more series, without par value, which is different than what it has under the BC Act. The Continuance to Alberta will not result in any substantive changes to the constitution, powers or management of the Company except as previously described.


Amendments to the Charter Documents of this Company


The ABCA requires a two-thirds majority vote to make substantive changes to the Company’s charter documents. Any substantive change to the corporate charter of a company under the BC Act, such as an alteration of the restrictions, if any, of the business carried on by a company, a change in the name of a company or an increase or reduction of the authorized capital of a company requires a special resolution passed by:


(a)

the majority of votes that the articles of the company specify is required for the company to pass a special resolution at a general meeting, if that specified majority is at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution


(b)

if the Articles do not contain such a provision, a special resolution passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution.


The BC Act does allow some limited capital alterations to be approved by a simple majority or by the directors if the articles so provide. The Company has not incorporated provisions into its proposed articles that permit approval by a simple majority or by the directors.


Other fundamental changes pursuant to both Acts, such as an alteration of the special rights and restrictions attached to issued shares or a proposed amalgamation or continuation of a company out of the jurisdiction, require a similar special resolution passed by the holders of shares of each class entitled to vote at a general meeting of the company and the holders of all classes of shares adversely affected by an alteration of special rights and restrictions.


Sale of Company’s Undertaking


Under the BC Act, a company may sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the undertaking of the company only if it does so in the ordinary course of its business or if it has been authorized to do so by a special resolution passed by the majority of votes that the articles of the company specify is required for the company to pass a special resolution at a general meeting, if that specified majority is at least two-thirds and not more than three-quarters of the votes cast on the resolution or, if the Articles do not contain such a provision, a special resolution passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution.


Under the ABCA, the approval of the shareholders of a corporation represented at a duly called meeting to which are attached not less than two thirds of the votes entitled to vote upon a sale, lease or exchange or all or substantially all of the property of the Company, and, where the class or series is affected by the sale, lease or exchange in a manner different from another class or series, the holders of shares of that class or series are entitled to vote separately as a class or series. Each share of the Company carries the right to vote in respect of the sale, lease or exchange whether or not it otherwise carries the right to vote.


Rights of Dissent and Appraisal


The BC Act provides that shareholders who dissent to certain actions being taken by a company may exercise a right of dissent (as more fully described in Exhibit “II” attached hereto) and require the company to purchase the shares held by such shareholder at the fair value of such shares. The dissent right is applicable where the company proposes:


(a)

a resolution to alter the Articles to alter restrictions on the powers of the company or on the

business it is permitted to carry on;


(b)

a resolution to adopt an amalgamation agreement;


(c)

a resolution to approve an amalgamation into a foreign jurisdiction;


(d)

a resolution to approve an arrangement, the terms of which arrangement permit dissent’


(e)

a resolution to authorize or ratify the sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the company’s undertaking;


(f)

a resolution to authorize the continuation of the company into a jurisdiction other than British Columbia;


(g)

any other resolution, if dissent is authorized by the resolution; or


(h)

any court order that permits dissent.


The ABCA provides that shareholders who dissent to certain actions being taken by a company may exercise a right of dissent and require the company to purchase the shares held by shareholders at the fair value of such shares. The dissent right is applicable where the company proposes to:


(a)

amend its Articles to add, change or remove any provisions restricting or constraining the issue or transfer of shares of a particular class or to add, change or remove any restriction on the business that the company may carry on;


(b)

continue under the laws of another jurisdiction;


(c)

sell, lease or exchange all or substantially all of its property; and


(d)

enter into a statutory amalgamation.


Oppression Remedies


Under the BC Act a shareholder of a company has the right to apply to court on the grounds that:


(a)

the affairs of the company are being or have been conducted, or that the powers of the directors are being or have been exercised, in a manner oppressive to one or more of the shareholders, including the applicant, or


(b)

some act of the company has been done or is threatened, or that some resolution of the shareholders or of the shareholders holding shares of a class or series of shares has been passed or is proposed, that is unfairly prejudicial to one or more of the shareholders, including the applicant.


On such an application, the court may make such order as it sees fit including an order to prohibit any act proposed by the company.


The ABCA contains rights that are substantially broader in that they are available to a larger class of complainants. Under the ABCA, a shareholder, former shareholder, director, former director, officer, former officer of a corporation or any of its affiliates, or any other person who, in the discretion of a court, is a proper person to seek an oppression remedy may apply to a court for an order to rectify the matters complained of where, in respect of a corporation or any of its affiliates, any act or omission of the corporation or its affiliates effects a result, or the business or affairs of the corporation or its affiliates are or have been exercised in a manner, that is oppressive or unfairly prejudicial to, or that unfairly disregards the interest of, any security holder, creditor, director or officer.


Shareholder Derivative Actions


Under the BC Act, a shareholder or director of a company may, with leave of the court, prosecute a legal proceeding in the name and on behalf of the company to enforce a right, duty or obligation owed to the company that could be enforced by the company itself or to obtain damages for any breach of such a right, duty or obligation.


A broader right to bring a derivative action is contained in the ABCA, and this right extends to officers, former shareholders, former directors and former officers of a corporation or its affiliates, and any person who, in the discretion of the court, is a proper person to make an application to court to bring a derivative action. In addition, the ABCA permits derivative actions to be commenced in the name and on behalf of a corporation or any of its subsidiaries.


Requisition of Meetings


The BC Act provides that one or more shareholders of a company holding at least 5% of the issued voting shares of a company may give notice to the directors requiring them to call and hold a general meeting. The ABCA also provides this right.


Form of Proxy and Information Circular for Reporting Companies


The requirement for reporting issuers to provide a notice of a general meeting, a form of proxy and an information circular containing prescribed information regarding the matters to be dealt with at, and the conduct of the general meeting is now governed by securities legislation and is not governed by the BC Act or the ABCA.


Indemnification


The ABCA allows a company to indemnify a director or former director or officer or former officer of a company or its affiliates against all liability and expenses reasonably incurred by him in a proceeding to which he is made party by reason of being or having been a director or officer if he acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the company and, in cases where an action is or was substantially successful on the merits of his defense of the action or proceeding against him in his capacity as a director or officer. The BC Act also provides this right.


Giving Financial Assistance


The ABCA limits the circumstances under which a company may give financial assistance to any person only where there are reasonable grounds for believing that the company would be unable to meet its liabilities as they become due and the company’s assets exceed the aggregate of its liabilities and stated capital of all classes. The BC Act also provides this right.


Place of Meetings


Under the BC Act, general meetings of shareholders are to be held in British Columbia or may be held, at a location outside of British Columbia if:


(i)

the location is provided for in the articles;


(ii)

if the articles do not restrict the Company from approving a location outside of British Columbia, the location is approved by the resolution required by the articles for that purpose, or if no resolution is specified then approved by ordinary resolution before the meeting is held; or


(iii)

the location is approved in writing by the Registrar of Companies before the meeting is held.


The ABCA provides that meetings of shareholders may be held outside Alberta where the corporation’s articles so provide.


Directors


The BC Act provides that a reporting company must have a minimum of three directors but does not impose any such residency requirements on the directors.


The ABCA provides that a distributing company must have at least three directors, at least two of whom are not officers or employees of the corporation or its affiliates. In addition, under the ABCA, at least one-half of the directors must be resident Canadians.


Right of Dissent to the Continuance


The shareholders are entitled to the dissent rights set out in the BC Act and to be paid the fair value of their Common Shares or if such shareholder dissents to the Continuance and the Continuance becomes effective. Neither a vote against the Continuance Resolution, nor an abstention or the execution or exercise of a proxy vote against such resolution will constitute notice of dissent, but a shareholder need not vote against such resolution in order to object. A shareholder must dissent with respect to all Common Shares either held personally by him or on behalf of any one beneficial owner and which are registered in one name. A brief summary of the provisions of the dissent rights of shareholders under the BC Act is set out below.


Persons who are beneficial owners of Common Shares registered in the name of a broker, custodian, nominee or other intermediary who wish to dissent should be aware that ONLY A REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER IS ENTITLED TO DISSENT. A shareholder, who beneficially owns Common Shares but is not the registered holder thereof, should contact the registered holder for assistance.


In order to dissent, a shareholder must send to the Company in the manner set forth below, a written notice of objection (the “Objection Notice”) to the Continuance Resolution. On the action approved by the Continuance Resolution becoming effective, the making of an agreement between the Company and the dissenting shareholder as to the payment to be made for the dissenting shareholder’s shares or the pronouncement of an order by the Court, whichever first occurs, the Shareholder ceases to have any rights as a shareholder other than the right to be paid the fair value of his shares in an amount agreed to by the Company and the shareholder or in the amount of the judgment, as the case may be, which fair value shall be determined as of the close of business on the last business day before the day on which the resolution from which the dissent was adopted. Until any one of such events occurs, the shareholder may withdraw his dissent or the Company may rescind the resolution and in either event, the proceedings shall be discontinued.


If the Continuance is approved, the dissenting shareholder who sent an Objection Notice, or the Company, may apply to the Court to fix the fair value of the Common Shares held by the dissenting shareholder and the Court shall make an order fixing the fair value of such Common Shares, giving judgment in that amount against the Company in favour of the dissenting shareholders and fixing the time by which the Company must pay that amount to the dissenting shareholder. If such an application is made by a dissenting shareholder, the Company shall, unless the court otherwise orders, send to each dissenting shareholder a written offer (the “Offer to Purchase”) to pay to the dissenting shareholder, an amount considered by the directors of the Company to be the fair value of the subject Common Shares, together with a statement showing how the fair value of the subject Common Shares was determined. Every Offer to Purchase shall be on the same terms. At any time before the Court pronounces an order fixing the fair value of the dissenting shareholder’s Common Shares, a dissenting shareholder may make an agreement with the Company for the purchase of his Common Shares, in the amount of the Offer to Purchase, or otherwise. The Offer to Purchase shall be sent to each dissenting shareholder within 10 days of the Company being served with a copy of the originating notice. Any order of the Court may also contain directions in relation to the payment to the shareholder of all or part of the sum offered by the Company for the Common Shares, the deposit of the share certificates representing the Common Shares, and other matters.


If the Company is not permitted to make a payment to a dissenting shareholder due to there being reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is or would after the payment be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due, or the realizable value of the company’s assets would thereby be less than the aggregate of its liabilities, then the company shall, within ten days after the pronouncement of an order, or the making of an agreement between the shareholder and the Company as to the payment to be made for his Common Shares, notify each dissenting shareholder that it is unable lawfully to pay such dissenting shareholders for their shares.


Notwithstanding that a judgment has been given in favour of a dissenting shareholder by the Court, if the Company is not permitted to make a payment to a dissenting shareholder for the reasons stated in the previous paragraph, the dissenting shareholder by written notice delivered to the Company within 30 days after receiving the notice, as set forth in the previous paragraph, may withdraw his notice of objection in which case the Company is deemed to consent to the withdrawal and the shareholder is reinstated to his full rights as a shareholder, failing which he retains his status as a claimant against the Company to be paid as soon as it is lawfully able to do so or, in a liquidation, to be ranked subordinate to the rights of creditors of the company but in priority to its shareholders.


In order to be effective, a written Objection Notice must be received by the Company’s registered and records office at 200 – 675 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6K 3A9, or by the Chairman of the Meeting, prior to the commencement or recommencement thereof.


The foregoing summary does not purport to provide a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by a dissenting shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of his Common Shares. The complete dissent provisions of the BC Act are set forth in Exhibit II hereto. The BC Act requires strict adherence to the procedures established therein and failure to do so may result in the loss of all dissenters’ rights. Accordingly, each shareholder who might desire to exercise the dissenters’ rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of the section and consult such shareholders’ legal advisor.


The directors of the Company may elect not to proceed with the transactions contemplated in the Continuance Resolution if any notices of dissent are received.


Continuance Resolution


The Continuance must be approved by special resolution in order to become effective. To pass, a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the votes cast by the shareholders present at the Meeting in person or by proxy.


The text of the special resolution to be considered at the Meeting will substantially be as follows:


“BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED as a special resolution of the Company that:


1.

the board of directors be and is hereby authorized to:


(a)

make application for the discontinuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia and make application for a Certificate of Discontinuance in respect thereof,


(b)

continue the Company into the Province of Alberta under section 189 of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), and


(c)

file a Certificate of Incorporation, a Certificate of Continuance and all such other certificates and writings with the Registrar of Corporations in Alberta as required in connection with such continuance resulting in the Company becoming incorporated under and subject to the laws of the Province of Alberta;


2.

subject to the issuance of such Certificate of Discontinuance and without affecting the validity of the Company and the existence of the Company by or under its charter documents and of any act done thereunder, the Company hereby approves and adopts:  (a) in substitution for the existing Certificate of Incorporation, the Certificate of Incorporation or Continuance and Articles of Incorporation under the ABCA, in the form to be approved by any director or officer of the Company and as may be accepted by Registrar of Corporations under the ABCA; (B) in substitution of the existing by-laws of the Company, By-Law Number 1, being a by-law complying with the laws of the Province of Alberta and relating generally to the affairs of the Company, such by-law to be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit III to this Management Information Circular;


3.

any director or officer of the Company be and is hereby individually authorized and directed for and on behalf of the Company to do all acts and things and to execute under the seal of the Company or otherwise and to deliver all such documents, instruments and writings as may be necessary or desirable in connection with the discontinuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia and the continuance of the Company into the Province of Alberta without further resolution;


4.

notwithstanding the approval of the shareholders of the Company as herein provided, the board of directors of the Company may, in its sole discretion, revoke this special resolution before it is acted upon, without further approval of the shareholders of the Company; and


5.

any one of more directors or officers be and are hereby authorized, upon the board of directors resolving to give effect to this resolution, to take all necessary steps and proceedings, and to execute and deliver and file any and all applications, declarations, documents and other instruments and do all such other acts and things (whether under corporate seal of the Company or otherwise) that may be necessary or desirable to give effect to the provisions of this resolution.”


Unless otherwise directed, it is the intention of the Management Designees to vote proxies in the accompanying form in favour of the special resolution approving the discontinuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia and the continuance of the Company into the Province of Alberta under the ABCA.


OTHER BUSINESS


While there is no other business other than that business mentioned in the Notice of Meeting to be presented for action by the shareholders at the Meeting, it is intended that the proxies hereby solicited will be exercised upon any other matters and proposals that may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment or adjournments thereof, in accordance with the discretion of the persons authorized to act thereunder.

STOCK OPTION PLAN









EXHIBIT I


STOCK OPTION PLAN

(to be approved by the shareholders on April 22, 2005)


Purpose of Plan

The purpose of this plan (the "Plan") is to develop the interest of bona fide Officers, Directors, Employees, Management Company Employees, and Consultants of Titan Trading Analytics Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Corporation") in the growth and development of the Corporation by providing them with the opportunity through share purchase options to acquire an increased proprietary interest in the Corporation.


Administration

The Plan shall be administered by the board of directors of the Corporation, or if appointed, by a special committee of Directors appointed from time to time by the board of directors of the Corporation (such committee, or if no such committee is appointed, the board of directors of the Corporation, is hereinafter referred to as the "Committee") pursuant to rules of procedure fixed by the board of directors.


Granting of Options

The Committee may from time to time designate bona fide Directors, Officers, Employees, Management Company Employees and Consultants of the Corporation (or in each case their personal holding companies) (collectively, the "Optionees"), to whom options ("Options") to purchase common shares ("Common Shares") of the Corporation may be granted, and the number of Common Shares to be optioned to each, provided that:


(a)

the total number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed 3,728,075 Common Shares, subject to adjustment as set forth in section "Alterations in Shares" hereof, and further subject to the applicable rules and regulations of all regulatory authorities to which the Corporation is subject, including the TSX Venture Exchange;

(b)

the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance, within a one-year period, to any one Optionee shall not exceed 5% of the Outstanding Common Shares;

(c)

the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance, within a one-year period, to any one Consultant of the Corporation may not exceed 2% of the Outstanding Common Shares;

(d)

the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance, within a one-year period, to Employees conducting Investor Relations Activities may not exceed 2% of the Outstanding Common Shares; and

(e)

unless the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Corporation at a meeting thereof by a majority of the votes cast at the meeting, other than votes attaching to securities beneficially owned by Insiders of the Corporation to whom Common Shares may be issued pursuant to the Plan, and Associates of any such Insiders;

(i)

the maximum number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Options granted to Insiders at any time may not exceed 10% of the number of Outstanding Common Shares;

(ii)

the maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued to Insiders, within a one-year period, may not exceed 10% of the number of Outstanding Common Shares; and

(iii)

the maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued to any one Insider and the Associates of such Insider, within a one-year period, may not exceed 5% of the number of Outstanding Common Shares;

provided that for the purposes of paragraphs (i), (ii), and (iii) above, an entitlement granted prior to the grantee becoming an Insider may be excluded in determining the number of Common Shares issuable to Insiders.

Vesting

The Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine the time during which Options shall vest and the method of vesting, provided that the Options shall not vest on more favourable terms than one-third of the total number of Options granted on the date of grant and on each of the 12-month and 18-month anniversaries of the date of grant.


Exercise Price

The exercise price (the "Exercise Price") of any Option shall be fixed by the Committee when such Option is granted, provided that such price shall not be less than the Discounted Market Price of the Common Shares, or such other price as may be determined under the applicable rules and regulations of all regulatory authorities to which the Corporation is subject, including the TSX Venture Exchange. In the event that the Corporation proposes to reduce the Exercise Price of Options granted to an Optionee who is an Insider of the Corporation at the time of the proposed amendment, said amendment shall not be effective until disinterested shareholder approval has been obtained in respect of said Exercise Price reduction.


Option Terms


The period during which an Option is exercisable shall, subject to the provisions of the Plan requiring acceleration of rights of exercise, be such period as may be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, but subject to the rules of any stock exchange or other regulatory body having jurisdiction (presently restricted to five years for TSX Venture Exchange Tier 2 Issuers). Each Option shall, among other things, contain provisions to the effect that the Option shall be personal to the Optionee and shall not be assignable or transferable. In addition, each Option shall provide that:


(a)

upon the death of the Optionee, the Option shall terminate on the date determined by the Committee, which date shall not be later than the earlier of the expiry date of the Option and one year from the date of death (the "Termination Date");

(b)

if the Optionee shall no longer be a Director or Officer of, be in the employ of, or be providing ongoing management or consulting services to the Corporation, the Option shall terminate on the earlier of the expiry date of the Option and the expiry of the period (the "Termination Date") not in excess of 90 days prescribed by the Committee at the time of grant, following the date that the Optionee ceases to be a Director, Officer or Employee of the Corporation, or ceases to provide ongoing management or consulting services to the Corporation, as the case may be; and

(c)

if the Option is granted to an Optionee who is engaged in Investor Relations Activities on behalf of the Corporation, the Option shall terminate on the earlier of the expiry date of the Option and the expiry of the period (the "Termination Date") not in excess of 30 days prescribed by the Committee at the time of grant, following the date that the Optionee ceases to provide ongoing Investor Relations Activities;

provided that the number of Common Shares that the Optionee (or his heirs or successors) shall be entitled to purchase until the Termination Date shall be the number of Common Shares which the Optionee was entitled to purchase on the date of death or the date the Optionee ceased to be an Officer, Director or Employee of, or ceased providing ongoing management or consulting services to, the Corporation, as the case may be.

Exercise of Option

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, an Option may be exercised from time to time by delivery to the Corporation at its head office, or such other place as may be specified by the Corporation, of a written notice of exercise specifying the number of Common Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price of the Common Shares then being purchased.


Mergers, Amalgamation and Sale

If the Corporation shall become merged (whether by plan of arrangement or otherwise) or amalgamated within or with another corporation or shall sell the whole or substantially the whole of its assets and undertakings for shares or securities of another corporation, the Corporation shall make provision that, upon exercise of an Option during its unexpired period after the effective date of such merger, amalgamation or sale, the Optionee shall receive such number of shares of the continuing successor corporation in such merger or amalgamation or the securities or shares of the purchasing corporation as the Optionee would have received as a result of such merger, amalgamation or sale if the Optionee had purchased the shares of the Corporation immediately prior thereto for the same consideration paid on the exercise of the Option and had held such shares on the effective date of such merger, amalgamation or sale and, upon such provision being made, the obligation of the Corporation to the Optionee in respect of the Common Shares subject to the Option shall terminate and be at an end and the Optionee shall cease to have any further rights in respect thereof.


Termination of Option in the Event of Take-Over Bid

In the event a take-over bid (as defined in the Securities Act), which is not exempt from the take-over bid requirements of Part 14 of the Securities Act (or its replacement or successor provisions), shall be made for the Common Shares of the Corporation, the Corporation may in the agreement providing for the grant of Options herein provide that the Corporation may require the disposition of the Optionee and the termination of any obligations of the Corporation to the Optionee in respect of any Options granted by paying to the Optionee in cash the difference between the exercise price of unexercised Options and the fair market value of the securities to which the Optionee would have been entitled upon exercise of the unexercised Options on such date, which determination of fair market value shall be conclusively made by the Committee, subject to approval by the stock exchanges upon which the Common Shares are then listed, if required by such exchanges.  Upon payment as aforesaid, the Options shall terminate and be at an end and the Optionee shall cease to have any further rights in respect thereof.


Alterations in Shares

Appropriate adjustments in the number of Common Shares optioned and in the Exercise Price, as regards Options granted or to be granted, may be made by the Committee in its discretion to give effect to adjustments in the number of Common Shares of the Corporation resulting subsequent to the approval of the Plan by the Committee from subdivisions, consolidations or reclassifications of the Common Shares of the Corporation, the payment of stock dividends by the Corporation, or other relevant changes in the capital of the Corporation.


Option Agreements

A written agreement will be entered into between the Corporation and each Optionee to whom an Option is granted hereunder, which agreement will set out the number of Common Shares subject to Option, the Exercise Price, provisions as to vesting and expiry, and any other terms approved by the Committee, all in accordance with the provisions of this Plan. The agreement will be in such form as the Committee may from time to time approve, or authorize the Officers of the Corporation to enter into, and may contain such terms as may be considered necessary in order that the Option will comply with this Plan, any provisions respecting Options in the income tax or other laws in force in any country or jurisdiction of which the person to whom the Option is granted may from time to time be a resident or citizen, and the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Corporation.


Regulatory Authorities Approvals

The Plan shall be subject to the approval, if required, of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed for trading. Any Options granted prior to such approval shall be conditional upon such approval being given, and no such Options may be exercised unless such approval, if required, is given.


Amendment or Discontinuance of the Plan

The Committee may amend or discontinue the Plan at any time, provided that no such amendment may, without the consent of the Optionee, alter or impair any Option previously granted to an Optionee under the Plan, and provided further that any amendment to the Plan will require the prior consent of the TSX Venture Exchange, or such other or additional stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed for trading.


Common Shares Duly Issued

Common Shares issued upon the exercise of an Option granted hereunder will be validly issued and allotted as fully paid and non-assessable upon receipt by the Corporation of the Exercise Price therefore in accordance with the terms of the Option, and the issuance of Common Shares thereunder will not require a resolution or approval of the board of directors of the Corporation.


Prior Plans

This Plan shall come into force and effect on April 22, 2005 and entirely replaces and supersedes prior share option plans enacted by the board of directors of the Corporation, or its predecessor corporations.


Definitions

(a)

if in this Plan, capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Corporate Finance Manual of the TSX Venture Exchange, and in particular, in policies 1.1 and 4.4 of said Corporate Finance Manual.

(b)

"Outstanding Common Shares" at the time of any share issuance or grant of Options means the number of Common Shares that are outstanding immediately prior to the share issuance or grant of Options in question on a non-diluted basis, or such other number as may be determined under the applicable rules and regulations of all regulatory authorities to which the Corporation is subject, including the TSX Venture Exchange.

Effective Date

This Plan is effective from April 22, 2005.

(4) Unless the court orders otherwise, if the dissenter fails to comply with subsection (1) of this section in relation to notice shares, the right of the dissenter to dissent with respect to those notice shares terminates and this Division, other than section 247, ceases to apply to the dissenter with respect to those notice shares.
