If, upon an invitation for tenders, more Debentures are tendered at the same price than the Corporation is prepared to accept, the Debentures to be purchased by the Corporation shall be selected by lot, or in such other manner, as the Corporation may consider equitable, from the Debentures tendered by each Holder who tendered at such lowest price.  The Holder of any Debenture of which a part only is purchased, upon surrender of such Debenture for payment, shall be entitled to receive, without expense to such Holder, one or more new Debentures for the unpurchased part so surrendered and the Corporation shall issue and deliver such new Debenture or Debentures upon receipt of the Debenture so surrendered.

(1)           The Holder of a Debenture wishing to Convert such Debenture in whole or in part into Units shall surrender such Debenture to the Corporation at its principal office in the City of Toronto, together with written notice in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation substantially in the form of Exhibit “2” annexed hereto, duly executed by the Holder, his executors, administrators, other legal representatives or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation, exercising his right to convert such Debenture in accordance with the provisions of this Article.  Thereupon such Holder or, subject to payment of all applicable stamp taxes, security transfer taxes or other governmental charges and compliance with all reasonable requirements of the Corporation, his nominee or assignee, shall be entitled to be entered in the books of the Corporation as at the Date of Conversion (or such later date as is specified in subsection 4.2(2)) as the registered holder of the numbers of Common Shares and Warrants into which such Debenture is convertible in accordance with the provisions hereof and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder or, subject as aforesaid, his nominee or assignee certificates for such Common Shares and Warrants for any amounts payable under Sections 2.3, 4.1(3) or 4.5.

(3)           Any part, being $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of a Debenture may be Converted as provided herein and all references in this Debenture to Conversion of Debentures shall be deemed to include Conversion of such parts.  The Holder of any Debenture of which part only is Converted shall, upon the exercise of his right of Conversion, surrender such Debenture to the Corporation, and the Corporation shall cancel the same and shall forthwith issue and deliver to the Holder a new Debenture or Debentures in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted part of the principal amount of the Debenture so surrendered.
 
(4)           The Common Shares issued upon Conversion shall rank only in respect of dividends declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on or after the Date of Conversion or such later date as such Holder shall become the holder of record of such Common Shares pursuant to subsection 4.2(2), from which applicable date they will for all purposes be and be deemed to be issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares.
 
A - 8

4.3           Adjustment of Conversion Price
 
The Conversion Price will be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided as follows:
 
(1)           If and whenever at any time after the date hereof, and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation:
 
(i)           issues Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares to all or substantially all the holders of Common Shares as a stock dividend or other distribution (other than an issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares pursuant to a right granted to such holders to receive such Common Shares in lieu of dividends paid in the ordinary course);
 
(ii)           subdivides its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares; or
 
(iii)           consolidates its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares,
 
(any of such events in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this subsection being called a “Common Share Reorganization”), then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after the effective date or record date for the happening of a Common Share Reorganization, as the case may be, at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Common Share Reorganization by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization and the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had all such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such effective date or record date).
 
(2)           If and whenever at any time after the date hereof, and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of Common Shares (the “Rights”) under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than forty-five (45) days after the date of such issue (the “Rights Period”), to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share to the holder (or at an exchange or conversion price per share during the Rights Period to the holder in the case of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) of less than 95% of the price (the “Current Market Price”) which is equal to the average Closing Market Price for the period of 20 Trading Days immediately preceding such record date (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
 
(i)           the numerator of which will be the aggregate of:
 
A - 9

(1)           the number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; plus
 
(2)           a number determined by dividing (a) the product of the number of Common Shares issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon the exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such Common Shares are offered by (b) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering, and
 
(ii)           the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering and including the number of Common Shares actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering.
 
Any Holder who has exercised the right to Convert in accordance with this Article 4 during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period for the Rights Offering will, in addition to the Common Shares and Warrants to which that Holder would otherwise be entitled upon such Conversion, be entitled to that number of additional Common Shares equal to the difference between the shares received on such Conversion and the shares that would have been received if the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection had applied when the Holder exercised the right to Convert; provided that the provisions of Section 4.5 will be applicable to any fractional interest in a Common Share to which such Holder might otherwise be entitled under the foregoing provisions of this subsection.  Such additional Common Shares will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional Common Shares will be delivered to such Holder within five Business Days following the end of the Rights Period.  To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not so exercised on or before the expiry thereof, the Conversion Price will be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based on the number of Common Shares (or the securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually delivered on the exercise of such rights, options or warrants.
 
(3)           If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Time of Expiry, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue or the distribution to all or substantially all the holders of Common Shares of (i) securities of the Corporation, including rights, options or warrants to acquire securities of the Corporation or any of its property or assets and including evidences of indebtedness or (ii) any property or other assets, including evidences of indebtedness, and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute (A) a dividend paid in the ordinary course; (B) a Common Share Reorganization; (C) a Rights Offering; or (D) the issue of Rights to the holders of all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares during the Rights Period, where the cost per Common Share during the Rights Period, is 95% or more of the Current Market Price (any of such non-excluded events being called a “Special Distribution”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
 
(i)           the numerator of which will be:
 
A - 10

(1)           the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; less
 
(2)           subject to the prior written consent of the Principal Market, if applicable, the excess, if any, of (a) the fair market value, as determined by action by the Corporation’s board of directors (whose determination will be conclusive), to the holders of Common Shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution over (b) the fair market value of the consideration received therefor by the Corporation from the holders of Common Shares, as determined by the Corporation’s board of directors (whose determination will be conclusive); and
 
(ii)           the denominator of which will be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date.
 
To the extent that any Special Distribution is not so made, the Conversion Price will be readjusted effective immediately to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such securities or property or other assets as actually distributed.
 
(4)           If and whenever at any time after the date hereof, and prior to the Time of Expiry, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares at any time outstanding or change of the Common Shares into other shares or into other securities or other capital reorganization (other than a Common Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation or merger which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other shares), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity in which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive shares, other securities or other property (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganization”), any Holder who exercises the right to Convert Debentures into Common Shares pursuant to Debentures then held after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization will be entitled to receive, and will accept for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was previously entitled upon such Conversion, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property or cash which such Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was previously entitled upon Conversion subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly possible, as those contained in this Article 4.  The Corporation will take all steps necessary to ensure that, on a Capital Reorganization, the Holders of Debentures will receive the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property or cash to which they are entitled as a result of the Capital Reorganization.  Appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Article 4 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Holders of Debentures to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 4 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of any Debenture.  Subject to the prior written consent of the Principal Market, if applicable, any such adjustment will be made by and set forth in an instrument supplemental hereto approved by action of the board of directors of the Corporation and will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment.

(5)           If the purchase price provided for in any rights, options or warrants (the “Rights Offering Price”) referred to in subsections 4.3(2) or (3) is decreased, the Conversion Price will forthwith be changed so as to decrease the Conversion Price to the Conversion Price that would have been obtained if the adjustment to the Conversion Price made under such subsections, as the case may be, with respect to such rights, options or warrants had been made on the basis of the Rights Offering Price as so decreased, provided that the terms of this subsection will not apply to any decrease in the Rights Offering Price resulting from terms in any such rights, options or warrants designed to prevent dilution except to the extent that the resulting decrease in the Conversion Price under this subsection would be greater than the decrease, if any, in the Conversion Price to be made under the terms of this section by virtue of the occurrence of the event giving rise to such decrease in the Rights Offering Price.
 
(6)           In any case in which this section requires that an adjustment become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder of any Debenture Converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such Conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder’s right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of such event and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the Date of Conversion or such later date on which such Holder would, but for the provisions of this subsection, have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares pursuant to subsection 4.2(1).
 
4.4           Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Conversion Price
 
For the purposes of Section 4.3:
 
(1)           The adjustments provided for in Section 4.3 are cumulative and will be computed to the nearest one-tenth of one cent and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs, subject to the remaining provisions of this section.
 
(2)           No adjustment in the Conversion Price will be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Conversion Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
 
(3)           No adjustment in the Conversion Price will be made in respect of any event described in Section 4.3 if Holders are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if they had converted their Debentures prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event.  Any such participation will be subject to the prior consent of each stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed or quoted for unlisted trading privileges, or were listed in the year prior to the occurrence of the event described in this subsection, if applicable.
 
(4)           If at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 4.3, subject to the prior written consent of the Principal Market, if applicable, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the Corporation’s auditors, or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action of the Corporation’s board of directors and any such determination will be binding upon the Corporation, the Holders and shareholders of the Corporation; such auditors or accountants will be given access to all necessary records of the Corporation.
 
A - 12

(5)           If the Corporation sets a record date to determine the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other action, then no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made.
 
(6)           In the absence of a resolution of the Corporation’s board of directors fixing a record date for a Special Distribution or Rights Offering, the Corporation shall be deemed to have fixed as a record date therefor the date on which the Special Distribution or Rights Offering is effected.
 
4.5           No Requirement to Issue Fractional Shares or Warrants
 
The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractional Common Shares or Warrants upon the Conversion of Debentures.  If more than one Debenture is surrendered for Conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of whole Common Shares and Warrants issuable upon Conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures to be Converted. If any fractional interest in a Common Share or Warrant, as applicable, would, except for the provisions of this section, be deliverable upon the Conversion of any principal amount of Debentures, the Corporation shall, in lieu of delivering any certificate of such fractional interest, satisfy such fractional interest by paying to the Holder of such surrendered Debentures an amount in lawful money of Canada equal to the value of such fractional interest based upon the Closing Market Price of the Common Shares on the Business Day preceding the Date of Conversion.
 
4.6           Corporation to Reserve Shares
 
The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares (if the number thereof is or becomes limited) solely for the purpose of issue upon Conversion of Debentures as provided herein, and conditionally issue to Holders who may exercise their Conversion rights hereunder, such number of Common Shares as shall then be issuable upon the Conversion of all outstanding Debentures and any Warrants which my be issued on exercise thereof. All Common Shares which shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable.
 
4.7           Cancellation of Converted Debentures
 
All Debentures Converted in whole or in part shall be forthwith cancelled by the Corporation (with regard to the Debenture or portion thereof which has been Converted) and, subject to subsection 4.2(3), no Debentures shall be issued in substitution therefor.
 
4.8           Certificate as to Adjustment
 
The Corporation shall from time to time, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 4.3, deliver a certificate to the Holders specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment or readjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.  Except in respect of any subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares, the Corporation shall forthwith give notice to the Holders specifying the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the amount thereof, including the resulting Conversion Price; provided that if the Corporation has given notice under Section 4.9 covering all the relevant facts in respect of such event, no such notice need be given under this section.
 
A - 13

4.9           Notice of Special Matters
 
The Corporation covenants that, so long as any Debentures remain outstanding, it will give notice to the Holders of its intention to fix a record date for any event referred to in subsections 4.3(1), (2), (3) or (4)  (other than the subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or consolidation of Common Shares) or a cash dividend (other than a dividend paid in the ordinary course) which may give rise to an adjustment in the Conversion Price, and such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date and the effective date for such event; provided that the Corporation shall only be required to specify in such notice such particulars of such event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given.  Such notice shall be given not less than 14 days prior to the applicable record date.

NORTHCORE TECHNOLOGIES INC.
(Organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario)
 
This is to certify that, for value received, Holder shall have the right to purchase from Northcore Technologies Inc. (the “Corporation”), at any time and from time to time up to the Expiry Time (as defined below), one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share (as defined below) for each Series (M) Warrant (individually, a “Warrant”) represented hereby at a price of Cdn$0.10 per share (the “Exercise Price”), upon and subject to the following terms and conditions:
 
1.
For the purpose of this Warrant, the term “Common Shares” means common shares in the capital of the Corporation as constituted on the date hereof; provided that in the event of a change, subdivision, re-division, reduction, combination or consolidation thereof or any other adjustment under clause 7 hereof, or such successive changes, subdivisions, re-divisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations or other adjustments, then subject to the adjustments, if any, having been made in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Certificate, “Common Shares” shall thereafter mean the shares, other securities or other property resulting from such change, subdivision, re-division, reduction, combination or consolidation or other adjustment.
 
2.
For the purpose of this Warrant, the term “Expiry Time” means the earlier of: (i) 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on July 11, 2013; and (ii) the date which is twenty (20) days following the issuance of a notice by the Corporation to Holders confirming that the closing price of the common shares of the Corporation on the Toronto Stock Exchange was greater than or equal to $0.20 for 10 consecutive trading days, following the 4 months and one day hold period from the Date of Issue of the Series (M) Debentures. All rights under any of the Warrants in respect of which the right of subscription and purchase therein provided for shall not theretofore have been exercised shall wholly cease and determine and such Warrants shall be wholly void and of no valid or binding effect after the Expiry Time.
 
3.
The right to purchase Common Shares pursuant to the Warrants may only be exercised by the Holder before the Expiry Time by duly completing and executing a subscription substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule “A”, in the manner therein indicated and surrendering this Warrant Certificate and the duly completed and executed subscription form to the Corporation at the principal office of the Corporation at 302 The East Mall, Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario, M9B 6C7, together with payment of the purchase price for the Common Shares subscribed for in the form of cash or a certified cheque payable to the Corporation in an amount equal to the then applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Common Shares subscribed for.
 
 

 
4.
Issue of Common Shares upon Exercise.
 
(a)           Upon such delivery and payment as set forth in Section 3, the Corporation shall cause to be issued to the Holder the number of Common Shares to be issued and the Holder shall become a shareholder of the Corporation in respect of such Common Shares with effect from the date of such delivery and payment and shall be entitled to delivery of a certificate or certificates evidencing such shares. The Corporation shall cause such certificate or certificates to be delivered via bonded overnight courier to the Holder at the address or addresses specified in such subscription form within three (3) business days of such delivery and payment as herein provided.
 
(b)           The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractional Common Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants and no payment shall be made by the Corporation in lieu of issuing any fractional interest in a Common Share.
 
5.
The holding of a Warrant shall not constitute the Holder a shareholder of the Corporation nor entitle the Holder to any right or interest in respect thereof except as herein expressly provided.
 
6.
The Corporation covenants and agrees that until the Expiry Time, while any of the Warrants shall be outstanding, it shall reserve and there shall remain unissued out of its authorized capital a sufficient number of Common Shares to satisfy the right of purchase herein provided, as such right of purchase may be adjusted pursuant to clauses 7 and 8 hereof.  All Common Shares which shall be issued upon the exercise of the right to purchase herein provided for, upon payment therefor of the amount at which such Common Shares may at the time be purchased pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall be issued as fully paid and non assessable shares and the holders thereof shall not be liable to the Corporation or its creditors in respect thereof.
 
Adjustment
 
The Exercise Price will be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided as follows:
 
(1)           If and whenever at any time after July 11, 2008, and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation:
 
(i)           issues Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares to all or substantially all the holders of Common Shares as a stock dividend or other distribution (other than an issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares pursuant to a right granted to such holders to receive such Common Shares in lieu of dividends paid in the ordinary course);
 
(ii)           subdivides its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares; or
 
(iii)           consolidates its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares,
 
(any of such events in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this subsection being called a “Common Share Reorganization”), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after the effective date or record date for the happening of a Common Share Reorganization, as the case may be, at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Common Share Reorganization by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization and the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had all such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such effective date or record date).
 
- 2 -

(2)           If and whenever at any time after July 11, 2008, and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of Common Shares (the “Rights”) under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than forty-five (45) days after the date of such issue (the “Rights Period”), to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share to the holder (or at an exchange or conversion price per share during the Rights Period to the holder in the case of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) of less than 95% of the price (the “Current Market Price”) which is equal to the average closing price on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the period of 20 trading days immediately preceding such record date (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
 
(iv)           the numerator of which will be the aggregate of:
 
(1)           the number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; plus
 
(2)           a number determined by dividing (a) the product of the number of Common Shares issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon the exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such Common Shares are offered by (b) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering, and
 
(v)           the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering and including the number of Common Shares actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering.
 
Any Holder who has exercised the Warrants represented hereby during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period for the Rights Offering will, in addition to the Common Shares to which that Holder would otherwise be entitled upon such exercise, be entitled to that number of additional Common Shares equal to the difference between the shares received on such exercise and the shares that would have been received if the Exercise Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection had applied when the Holder exercised the Warrants; provided that the provisions of Section 4(b) will be applicable to any fractional interest in a Common Share to which such Holder might otherwise be entitled under the foregoing provisions of this subsection.  Such additional Common Shares will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional Common Shares will be delivered to such Holder within three business days following the end of the Rights Period.  To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not so exercised on or before the expiry thereof, the Exercise Price will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based on the number of Common Shares (or the securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually delivered on the exercise of such rights, options or warrants.
 
- 3 -

(3)           If and whenever at any time after July 11, 2008, and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue or the distribution to all or substantially all the holders of Common Shares of (i) securities of the Corporation, including rights, options or warrants to acquire securities of the Corporation or any of its property or assets and including evidences of indebtedness or (ii) any property or other assets, including evidences of indebtedness, and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute (A) a dividend paid in the ordinary course; (B) a Common Share Reorganization; (C) a Rights Offering; or (D) the issue of Rights to the holders of all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares during the Rights Period, where the cost per Common Share during the Rights Period, is 95% or more of the Current Market Price (any of such non-excluded events being called a “Special Distribution”), the Exercise Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
 
(vi)           the numerator of which will be:
 
(1)           the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; less
 
(2)           subject to the prior written consent of the Toronto Stock Exchange, if applicable, the excess, if any, of (a) the fair market value, as determined by action by the Corporation’s board of directors (whose determination will be conclusive), to the holders of Common Shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution over (b) the fair market value of the consideration received therefor by the Corporation from the holders of Common Shares, as determined by the Corporation’s board of directors (whose determination will be conclusive); and
 
(vii)           the denominator of which will be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date.
 
To the extent that any Special Distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price will be readjusted effective immediately to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon such securities or property or other assets as actually distributed.
 
(4)            If and whenever at any time after July 11, 2008, and prior to the Expiry Time, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares at any time outstanding or change of the Common Shares into other shares or into other securities or other capital reorganization (other than a Common Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation or merger which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other shares), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity in which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive shares, other securities or other property (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganization”), any Holder who exercises the Warrants represented hereby into Common Shares after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization will be entitled to receive, and will accept for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was previously entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property or cash which such Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was previously entitled upon exercise subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly possible, as those contained in this Section 7.  The Corporation will take all steps necessary to ensure that, on a Capital Reorganization, the Holders of Warrants will receive the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property or cash to which they are entitled as a result of the Capital Reorganization.  Appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Section 7 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Holders of Warrants to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 7 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant.  Subject to the prior written consent of the Toronto Stock Exchange, if applicable, any such adjustment will be made by and set forth in an instrument supplemental hereto approved by action of the board of directors of the Corporation and will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment.
 
- 4 -

(5)            If the purchase price provided for in any rights, options or warrants (the “Rights Offering Price”) referred to in subsections 7(2) or (3) is decreased, the Exercise Price will forthwith be changed so as to decrease the Exercise Price to the Exercise Price that would have been obtained if the adjustment to the Exercise Price made under such subsections, as the case may be, with respect to such rights, options or warrants had been made on the basis of the Rights Offering Price as so decreased, provided that the terms of this subsection will not apply to any decrease in the Rights Offering Price resulting from terms in any such rights, options or warrants designed to prevent dilution except to the extent that the resulting decrease in the Exercise Price under this subsection would be greater than the decrease, if any, in the Exercise Price to be made under the terms of this section by virtue of the occurrence of the event giving rise to such decrease in the Rights Offering Price.
 
(6)            In any case in which this section requires that an adjustment become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder’s right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of such event and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the date of exercise or such later date on which such Holder would, but for the provisions of this subsection, have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares.
 
(7)            If and whenever at any time after July 11, 2008, and prior to the Expiry Time, any of the events set out in this clause 7 shall occur and the occurrence of such event results in an adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this clause 7, then the number of Common Shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall be adjusted contemporaneously with the adjustment of the Exercise Price by multiplying the number of Common Shares then otherwise purchasable on the exercise thereof by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
 
- 5 -

(8)            If the Corporation takes any action affecting its Common Shares to which the foregoing provisions of this clause 7, in the opinion of the board of directors of the Corporation, acting in good faith, are not strictly applicable, or if strictly applicable would not fairly adjust the rights of the Holder against dilution in accordance with the intent and purposes hereof, or would otherwise materially affect the rights of the Holder of the Warrants hereunder, then the Corporation shall, subject to the prior written consent of Toronto Stock Exchange, execute and deliver to the Holder an amendment hereto providing for an adjustment in the application of such provisions so as to adjust such rights as aforesaid in such manner as the board of directors of the Corporation may determine to be equitable in the circumstances, acting in good faith. The failure of the taking of action by the board of directors of the Corporation to so provide for any adjustment on or prior to the effective date of any action or occurrence giving rise to such state of facts will be conclusive evidence that the board of directors has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.
 
8.
The following rules and procedures shall be applicable to the adjustments made pursuant to clause 7:
 
The adjustments provided for in Section 7 are cumulative and will be computed to the nearest one-tenth of one cent and will be made successively whenever an event referred to therein occurs, subject to the remaining provisions of this section.
 
(c)
No adjustment in the Exercise Price will be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Exercise Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection would otherwise have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
 
(d)
No adjustment in the Exercise Price will be made in respect of any event described in Section 7 if Holders are entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if they had exercised their Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event.  Any such participation will be subject to the prior consent of each stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed or quoted for unlisted trading privileges, or were listed in the year prior to the occurrence of the event described in this subsection, if applicable.
 
(e)
If at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in Section 7, subject to the prior written consent of the Toronto Stock Exchange, if applicable, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the Corporation’s auditors, or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action of the Corporation’s board of directors and any such determination will be binding upon the Corporation, the Holders of Warrants and shareholders of the Corporation; such auditors or accountants will be given access to all necessary records of the Corporation.
 
(f)
If the Corporation sets a record date to determine the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other action, then no adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be made.
 
 
- 6 -

 
(g)
In the absence of a resolution of the Corporation’s board of directors fixing a record date for a Special Distribution or Rights Offering, the Corporation shall be deemed to have fixed as a record date therefor the date on which the Special Distribution or Rights Offering is effected.
 
9.
On the happening of each and every such event set out in clause 7, the applicable provisions of this Warrant, including the Exercise Price, shall, ipso facto, be deemed to be amended accordingly and the Corporation shall take all necessary action so as to comply with such provisions as so amended.
