and

Alberta (the "Indemnitee")

WHEREAS the Indemnitee serves as a director and/or officer of the Corporation; and

WHEREAS in accordance with the Corporation’s By-Laws ("By-Laws") and the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the "Act"), it is in the Corporation’s best interests to indemnify the Indemnitee as provided in this Agreement, and the Indemnitee requires this Agreement as an inducement to continue to serve the Corporation in such capacity.

NOW THEREFORE in consideration for the mutual covenants and promises set out herein, the parties agree as follows.

1. Agreement To Serve

The Indemnitee agrees to continue to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation, until such time as Indemnitee ceases to hold either such position under the Act, the Bylaws or any agreement related to such position.

2. Indemnification

The Corporation agrees to and shall indemnify and save harmless the Indemnitee for all actions and duties carried out for and on behalf of the Corporation, and if the Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened or pending civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding (collectively, "Proceedings") by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Corporation or having acted at the Corporation's request as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the Corporation is or was a shareholder or creditor (such body or bodies corporate referred to throughout this Agreement, collectively with the Corporation as the "Corporation"), or by reason of anything done or not done by him in any such capacity, from and against all costs, charges, expenses, including, without limitation, legal expenses and amounts paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgement or to satisfy any fines levied, (collectively, "Expenses"), actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such Proceedings (including in respect of an action to procure a judgement in the Corporation’s favour with the Court's prior approval) if:

(a) he acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the

Corporation; and

(b) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful.

In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between this Agreement and any indemnity provided for in the Bylaws, this Agreement shall prevail.

3. Deceased Indemnitee

If the Indemnitee is deceased and is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Corporation agrees to and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitee's estate and his executors, administrators, legal representatives and lawful heirs to the same extent as it would indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, if alive.

4. Partial Indemnification

If the Indemnitee is entitled under this Agreement to indemnification by the Corporation for part of the Expenses incurred in respect of any Proceedings but not for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which the Indemnitee is determined to be entitled.

5. No Presumption As To Absence Of Good Faith

The determination of any Proceedings by judgment, order, settlement or conviction shall not of itself, create any presumption for the purposes of this Agreement that the Indemnitee did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation or, in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding enforced by monetary penalty, that he did not have reasonable grounds for believing his conduct was lawful, unless the judgement or order specially states otherwise.

6. Determination Of Right To Indemnification

(a) The determination as to whether or not the Indemnitee has met the standard of

conduct required to entitle him, in whole or in part, to indemnification hereunder shall be made by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board"), who may rely in good faith upon the advice of independent legal counsel, and the costs of retaining such legal counsel shall be borne by the Corporation.

(b) If the Board determines the Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified hereunder as to 50% or more of the Expenses incurred in respect of any Proceedings, the Corporation may (and subject to the provisions of any applicable insurance policy) assume and direct the defense and handling of such Proceedings, to determine whether and in what manner any such Proceedings shall be defended, appealed, compromised or settled, and to appoint legal counsel of its choice to act on behalf of Indemnitee. In such event Indemnitee shall cooperate fully and in good faith with the Corporation in all matters respecting such Proceedings.

7. No Liability For Certain Acts

In addition to any applicable provisions of the By-Laws, to the extent permitted by law, the Indemnitee shall not be liable for:

(a) the actions, omissions, negligence or defaults of any other director, officer or employee of the Corporation;

(b) joining in any action or omission for conformity;

(c) any loss, damage or expense happening to the Corporation through the

insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by the Corporation or for or on its behalf;

(f) any loss, conversion, misapplication or misappropriation of or any damage resulting from any dealings with any moneys, securities or other assets belonging to the Corporation; or

(g) any other loss, damage or misfortune whatever which may happen in the execution of the duties of his office or trust in relation thereto unless the same shall happen by or through his failure to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interest of the Corporation, and in connection therewith to exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances.
