MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

9.1Effective Date.  The Plan was originally effective on March 15, 2006 (the “Effective Date”).  The Plan was subsequently amended and restated by approval of the Shareholders on September 20, 2010 (the “Restatement Effective Date”).

9.2Expiration Date.  The Plan will expire on, and no Award may be granted pursuant to the Plan after, the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date.  Any Awards that are outstanding on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date shall remain in force according to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.

9.3Amendment or Termination of the Plan.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.3, at any time and from time to time, the Committee may terminate, amend or modify the Plan; provided that:

(a)to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain Shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required, and

(b)Shareholder approval is required for any amendment to the Plan that:

(i)increases the number of Shares available under the Plan (other than any adjustment as provided by Article 10),

(ii)permits the Committee to extend the exercise period for an Option beyond ten (10) years from the date of grant, or

(iii)results in a material increase in benefits or a change in eligibility requirements. Except as provided in the Plan or any Award Agreement, no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Holder, impair any rights or obligations under any Award theretofore granted or awarded.

16

9.4No Shareholders Rights.  Except as otherwise provided herein, a Holder shall have none of the rights of a Shareholder with respect to Shares covered by any Award until the Holder becomes the record owner of such Shares.

9.5Paperless Administration.  In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the documentation, granting or exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless documentation, granting or exercise of Awards by a Holder may be permitted through the use of such an automated system.

9.6Effect of Plan upon Other Compensation Plans.  The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for a Service Recipient.  Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of a Service Recipient:

(a)to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for Eligible Individuals, or

(b)to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan in connection with any proper corporate purpose, including without limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business, securities or assets of any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, firm or association.

9.7Compliance with Laws.  The Plan, the granting and vesting of Awards under the Plan and the issuance and delivery of Shares and the payment of money under the Plan or under Awards granted or awarded under the Plan are subject to compliance with all Applicable Laws and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith.  Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions, and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements.  To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.

9.8Titles and Headings, References to Sections of the Code or Exchange Act.  The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. References to sections of the Code or the Exchange Act shall include any amendment or successor thereto.

9.9Governing Law.  The Plan and any agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the internal laws of Canada, without regard to conflicts of laws thereof.

17

9.10Section 409A.  To the extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A of the Code.  To the extent applicable, the Plan and Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Committee determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the Effective Date), the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to:

(a)exempt the Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or

(b)comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance and thereby avoid the application of any penalty taxes under such Section.

9.11No Rights to Awards.  No Eligible Individual or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Committee is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Holders or any other persons uniformly.

9.12No Right to Employment or Services.  Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Service Recipient to terminate any Holder’s employment or services at any time, nor confer upon any Holder any right to continue in the employ or service of any Service Recipient.

9.13Unfunded Status of Awards.  The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation.  With respect to any payments not yet made to a Holder pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Holder any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Related Entity.

9.14Indemnification.  To the extent allowable pursuant to Applicable Laws, each member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided that he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf.  The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Articles, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

18

9.15Relationship to other Benefits.  No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of any Service Recipient except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

9.16Expenses.  The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Service Recipients.

ARTICLE 10.

CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

10.1Adjustments.  In the event of any distribution, share split, combination or exchange of Shares, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, reorganization of the Company, including the Company becoming a subsidiary in a transaction not involving a Corporate Transaction, spin-off, recapitalization or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to Shareholders, or any other change affecting the Shares or the share price of a Share, the Committee shall make such proportionate and equitable adjustments, if any, to reflect such change with respect to:

(a)the aggregate number and type of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 3.1 and substitutions of shares in a parent or surviving company);

(b)the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); and

(c)the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan.  The form and manner of any such adjustments shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

10.2Corporate Transactions. Except as may otherwise be provided in any Award Agreement or any other written agreement entered into by and between the Company and a Holder, if a Corporate Transaction occurs and a Holder’s Awards are not converted, assumed, or replaced by a successor as provided in Section 10.3, such Awards shall become fully exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions on such Awards shall lapse.  Upon, or in anticipation of, a Corporate Transaction, the Committee may in its sole discretion provide for:

(a)any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time in the future and shall give each Holder the right to exercise such Awards during a period of time as the Committee shall determine,

(b)either the purchase of any Award for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Holder’s rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable or fully vested (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of such date the Committee determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Holder’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment), or

19

(c)the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion or the assumption of or substitution of such Award by the successor or surviving corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of Shares and prices.

10.3Assumption of Awards — Corporate Transactions.  In the event of a Corporate Transaction, each Award may be assumed by the successor entity in connection with the Corporate Transaction.  Except as provided otherwise in an Award Agreement, an Award will be considered assumed if the Award either is:

(a)assumed by the successor entity or replaced with a comparable Award (as determined by the Committee) with respect to capital shares (or equivalent) of the successor entity or Parent thereof; or

(b)replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor entity which preserves the compensation element of such Award existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting schedule applicable to such Award.

If an Award is assumed in a Corporate Transaction, then such Award, the replacement Award or the cash incentive program automatically shall become fully vested, exercisable and payable and be released from any restrictions on transfer (other than transfer restrictions applicable to Options) and repurchase or forfeiture rights, immediately upon termination of the Holder’s employment or service with all Service Recipients within twelve (12) months of the Corporate Transaction without cause.

10.4Outstanding Awards — Other Changes.  In the event of any other change in the capitalization of the Company or corporate change other than those specifically referred to in this Article 12, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, make such adjustments in the number and class of shares subject to Awards outstanding on the date on which such change occurs and in the per share grant or exercise price of each Award as the Committee may consider appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.

10.5No Other Rights.  Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Holder shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation.  Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award.

20

ARTICLE 11.

AWARD OF RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS

11.1Award of Restricted Share.  The Committee may grant Restricted Share Units to Eligible Individuals in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate.

11.2Term.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the term of a Restricted Share Unit award shall be set by the Committee in its sole discretion.

11.3Purchase Price.  The Committee shall specify the consideration, if any, to be paid by the Holder to the Company with respect to any Restricted Share Unit award; provided that the value of the consideration shall not be less than the par value of a Share, unless otherwise permitted by Applicable Law.

11.4Vesting of Restricted Share Units.  At the time of grant, the Committee shall specify the date or dates on which the Restricted Share Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and may specify such conditions to vesting as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, vesting based upon the Holder’s duration of service with the Company or any Affiliate, Company performance, individual performance or other criteria, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods, as determined by the Committee.

11.5Maturity and Payment.  At the time of grant, the Committee shall specify the maturity date applicable to the Restricted Share Units, which date shall be no earlier than the vesting date or dates of the Award and may be determined at the election of the Holder (if permitted by the applicable Award Agreement); provided that, except as otherwise determined by the Committee or set forth in any applicable Award Agreement, and subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, in no event shall the maturity date relating to each Restricted Share Unit occur following the later of:

(a)the 15th day of the third month following the end of calendar year in which the Restricted Share Unit vests; and

(b)the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the Restricted Share Unit vests.

On the maturity date, the Company shall, subject to Section 10.1, transfer to the Holder one unrestricted, fully transferable Share for each Restricted Share Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously forfeited, or in the sole discretion of the Committee, an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the maturity date or a combination of cash and Shares as determined by the Committee.

11.6Payment upon Termination of Service.  An Award of Restricted Share Units shall only be payable while the Holder is an Employee, a Consultant or a member of the Board, as applicable; provided that the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may provide (in an Award Agreement or otherwise) that a Restricted Share Unit award may be paid subsequent to a Termination of Service in certain events, including a Change in Control, the Holder’s death, retirement or disability or any other specified Termination of Service.

21

11.7No Rights as a Shareholder.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Holder who is awarded Restricted Share Units shall possess no incidents of ownership with respect to the Shares represented by such Restricted Share Units unless and until the same are transferred to the Holder pursuant to the terms of this Plan and the Award Agreement.

11.8Dividend Equivalents.  The Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that the Holder of Restricted Share Units shall be entitled to receive the equivalent of any dividends declared on the Shares represented by the Restricted Share Units, to be credited as of dividend payment dates during the period between the date an Award of Restricted Share Units is granted to a Holder and the maturity date of such Award.

11.9Canadian Employment and Employees.  Notwithstanding anything in this Article 11 to the contrary, no amount may be paid in respect of a Restricted Share Unit in the form of cash to an Eligible Individual who was granted such Restricted Share Unit while a resident of Canada or in respect of employment exercised in Canada unless the cash payment is received by that individual within three years from the end of the year in which the grant of the relevant Restricted Share Unit was made.
