As soon as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, each of B-Balloon and Neovasc shall cause its Israeli advisors to prepare and file with the Israeli Tax Authority an application for a ruling(s) to be issued by the Israeli Tax Authority (the “Israeli Tax Ruling”), in accordance with Section 104(h) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, pursuant to which, if so agreed by the Israeli Tax Authority, the following would apply to the B-Balloon Shareholders, Neovasc Shareholders, holders of Neovasc Warrants, holders of B-Balloon Options and holders of Neovasc Options (each, individually, an “Eligible Taxpayer”): (i) Each Eligible Taxpayer whose Israeli taxation in connection with this Agreement would not have been

governed by Section 102 of the Israel Income Tax Ordinance (a “Non-102 Eligible Taxpayer”) shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, to elect to enjoy the benefits of Section 104(h) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, which allows for a tax deferral of up to two years (with respect to half of the Non-102 Eligible Taxpayer’s relevant securities) and four years (with respect to the other half of the Non-102 Eligible Taxpayer’s relevant securities). Any Non-102 Eligible Taxpayer making such an election shall do so in the manner, and within the time frame, to be prescribed in the Israeli Tax Ruling, and shall be subject to all of the provisions and limitations set forth in the Israeli Tax Ruling relating thereto, as well as the provisions and limitations set forth in said Section 104(h), including, without limitation, the deposit of such Non-102 Eligible Taxpayer’s Parent securities at Closing, to the extent not held in escrow, (to be held thereby until the earlier of the sale thereof, or the sale of the shares underlying such securities (if applicable)) with a trustee approved by the Israel Tax Authority for the purpose of ensuring full payment of applicable taxes in accordance with said Section 104(h). Any Non-102 Eligible Taxpayer not making such an election shall not be entitled to enjoy the benefits of Section 104(h) in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. (ii) Each Eligible Taxpayer whose Israeli taxation in connection with this Agreement would be governed by Section 102 of the Israel Income Tax Ordinance and who received its securities through a Trustee who was appointed pursuant to said Section 102 (“102 Eligible Taxpayer”) shall continue to be subject to taxation pursuant to said Section 102, but the transactions contemplated herein shall not be considered a tax event triggering a tax payment pursuant to Section 102, and the Parent securities received thereby in connection with the transactions contemplated herein shall enjoy “pass-through” treatment in accordance with the provisions of Section 104(h) which address the tax consequences of 102 Eligible Taxpayers.

It is contemplated that the Israeli Tax Ruling would exempt Parent from any obligation to withhold Israeli Tax at source from any consideration payable to: (i) those Non-102 Eligible Taxpayers who elect to benefit from the Israeli Tax Ruling and deposit their securities with the trustee appointed in connection therewith; and (ii) the 102 Eligible Taxpayers. Parent shall cooperate with each of B-Balloon and Neovasc and execute such commercially reasonable documents provided that they do not adversely affect Parent or its current securityholders, required in connection with the Israeli Income Tax Ruling. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the parties shall use their best efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under the applicable law to obtain the Israeli Income Tax Ruling as promptly as practicable. Following the Closing, Parent shall comply with all Laws and requirements as may be applicable in order to protect, and shall not take any action which may adversely affect, the tax-free nature of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the Israeli Tax Ruling, subject to similar compliance by the Non-102 Eligible Taxpayers who elect to benefit from the Israeli Tax Ruling.

The parties hereto understand that the Israeli Tax Ruling may contain such provisions as the Israeli Tax Authority may prescribe, and that the tax benefits contemplated in this Section 7.6 may not be granted, or may not be granted in full.

It is acknowledged that with respect to those Non-102 Eligible Taxpayers who will not elect to benefit from the Israeli Tax Ruling (“Non-Electing Non-102 Holders”), Parent shall be required to withhold Israeli Tax at source (by way of cash payment) from any consideration payable to such Non-Electing Non-102 Holders, except to the extent that the Non-Electing Non-

102 Holders provide sufficient proof, at the sole discretion of Parent, that Israeli withholding does not apply or that a reduced rate applies (in which case the reduced rate will be withheld). Parent may require a bank guarantee or other form of security in order to ensure the reliability of any such proof. It is further acknowledged that the Israeli Tax Ruling is expected to provide that any consideration payable to Non-Electing Non-102 Holders shall be deposited with a trustee, who shall be pre-approved by the Israeli Tax Authority, and who shall be responsible: (i) to pay to the Israeli Tax Authority, in cash, the amount of any Israeli withholding taxes; and (ii) to hold the consideration received on behalf of each Non-Electing Non-102 Holder as security with a view towards ensuring that such Non-Electing Non-102 Holder pay the amount of any Israeli withholding taxes applicable to such Non-Electing Non-102 Holder’s exchange of shares contemplated herein. Any Non-Electing Non-102 Holder whose withholding taxes are actually paid by the Parent or a tax trustee as aforesaid shall be principally responsible to reimburse the Parent and/or the tax trustee, as appropriate, without delay, for the amount paid, as well as all expenses relating thereto. B-Balloon and Neovasc agree to provide to Parent at Closing an accurate list of all Non-Electing Non-102 Holders.

(a) As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, each of B-Balloon, Neovasc and Parent shall prepare and file any notification required under the Israeli Restrictive Trade Practices Law in connection with the Merger, and they shall reasonably cooperate, as necessary, with a view towards receiving the approval of the Restrictive Trade Practices Commissioner, if required in order to lawfully consummate the Mergers; and

(b) Each of B-Balloon and Neovasc shall as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, (a) prepare and file the notifications required to be made to the OCS and Investment Center (if applicable), and (ii) use all reasonable efforts to obtain the approval of the Investment Center (if applicable) and any other consents that may be required in connection with its respective Merger. In this connection, if required, Parent shall provide to the OCS and the Investment Center any information reasonably requested by such authorities and shall, without limitation of the foregoing, execute an undertaking in customary form in which Parent undertakes to comply with the OCS Laws and regulations and confirm to the OCS and the Investment Center that each of B-Balloon and Neovasc shall continue after the Merger Effective Times to operate in a manner consistent with its previous undertakings to the OCS and the Investment Center.

7.8 Transaction Reporting. As promptly as practicable (but in no event, with respect to filing, later than the date required under applicable Law), Parent will prepare and file any forms, reports, statements or documents required to be filed under Canadian Securities Law with respect to the Mergers, as well as under regulations of or as required by the Eligible Market and such Governmental Authorities as may require the filing of such other filings.

(a) Subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, each party will promptly furnish to the other parties copies of written communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance of all oral communications) received by such party, or

any of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates or associates from, or delivered by any of the foregoing to, any Governmental Authority relating to or in respect of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, including without limitation any communication to or from the Israel Securities Authority, the Companies Registrar or any other Israeli Governmental Authority regarding the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Each of the parties recognizes the need to comply with Israeli securities laws regarding the (i) offering of Parent Shares (or the right to purchase Parent Shares) and the assumption of the Assumed Parent Options and Assumed Parent Warrants to former B-Balloon Securityholders and Neovasc Securityholders and the (ii) offering of Parent Shares and Parent warrants in connection with the Concurrent Financing (collectively, the “Israeli Offering”). Unless Parent otherwise agrees, the Israeli Offering is premised on the condition that an Israeli prospectus will not be required and this may involve seeking a determination or exemption from the Israeli Securities Authority and/or determining that the Mergers can be completed pursuant to Section 350 and/or Section 351 of the Israeli Companies Law (Arrangement). Each of the parties agrees to fully cooperate with each other in submitting requests or filings to any Governmental Authority (including Israeli courts) in connection with the Israeli Offering or any exemptions sought in connection thereof (including pursuant to a Section 350 and/or a Section 351 procedure (Arrangement)).

(c) B-Balloon and Merger Sub I and Neovasc and Merger Sub II will, as soon as practicable following the Closing, file with the Companies Registrar the required notice that all conditions under Section 323(5) of the Israeli Companies Law have been fulfilled and will obtain the respective Certificates of Merger.

7.10 Parent Directors. Simultaneously with the Closing, Parent shall use its best efforts to cause the “Director Nominees” (as hereinafter defined) to be elected as members of the boards of directors of Parent and its subsidiaries by the existing members of the boards of directors of Parent and its subsidiaries (to the extent that they are not already serving in such capacity). Each Director Nominee shall serve as a director for a term expiring at Parent’s next annual meeting of shareholders following the Closing Date and until his successor is elected and qualified, provided that Parent shall use its best efforts to cause the Parent board of directors to re-nominate each Director Nominee as a director for election at the Parent’s annual meeting of shareholders for each of 2008 and 2009, subject to any limitations imposed by applicable Law or the rules of the Eligible Market or such other exchange on which Parent’s securities are then traded. Parent shall take such action, including amending the Parent Articles, as may be required to cause the number of directors constituting the Parent board of directors immediately after the Closing Date to be increased to nine, if necessary. “Director Nominees” means six persons selected by B-Balloon and Neovasc and three persons selected by Parent, although, initially, B-Balloon and Neovasc may, in their sole discretion, only select four persons.

(a) From and after the Closing, Parent will cause Surviving Company I to fulfill and honor in all material respects the obligations of B-Balloon pursuant to any indemnification provisions under the B-Balloon Articles, any existing indemnification

(c) Parent will provide each B-Balloon Indemnitee and Neovasc Indemnitee with directors and officers liability insurance for a period of seven years after such B-Balloon Merger Effective Time or Neovasc Merger Effective Time, as applicable, on terms no less favorable in coverage and amount than any applicable insurance in effect immediately prior to such B-Balloon Merger Effective Time or Neovasc Merger Effective Time; provided, however, that Parent shall not be obligated to pay in excess of an aggregate amount equal to US$50,000 for such insurance, which amount represents US$25,000 in respect of each of the B-Balloon Indemnitees and the Neovasc Indemnitees.

10.3 Holdback; Limitation of Liability. As security for the Parties' respective indemnification obligations hereunder, Parent shall hold back ten percent (10.0%) of the Parent Shares to be issued to each B-Balloon Shareholder in connection with the B-Balloon Merger (the “B-Balloon Escrowed Securities”) and to be issued to each Neovasc Shareholder in connection with the Neovasc Merger (the “Neovasc Escrowed Securities,” and together with the B-Balloon

Escrowed Securities, the “Escrowed Securities”) pursuant to the terms of Article III hereof and this Article X. The Escrowed Securities shall be held in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G and released in accordance with the terms thereof on the date that is 364 days after the Closing Date, except with respect to a number of such B-Balloon Escrowed Securities and/or Neovasc Escrowed Securities, as applicable, reasonably determined to be necessary to satisfy any claim made pursuant to this Article X in writing prior to such release date, which securities shall be held pursuant to the terms hereof until such claim is fully and finally resolved. Parent shall offset Losses for which B-Balloon is obligated to provide indemnification hereunder against the B-Balloon Escrowed Securities on a pro rata basis based on the number of such securities (calculated on a fully diluted basis) issued to each holder thereof and held in such escrow, and the aggregate number of B-Balloon Escrowed Securities subject to such offset shall be determined by dividing the amount of such indemnifiable losses, as fully and finally determined to be due, by the average closing price per Parent Share on the Eligible Market or other applicable exchange, as applicable, for the ten-day period ending on the day prior to such offset.

Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall B-Balloon or Neovasc have any liability of any kind or nature under this Agreement or any applicable Law to any Parties or third party beneficiaries hereunder other than pursuant to the Holdback and the indemnification obligations of such Persons shall be limited to the Holdback. Accordingly, if any indemnitee incurs Losses that exceed the value of the B-Balloon Escrowed Securities or Neovasc Escrowed Securities (as determined pursuant to this section), as the case may be, with respect to which it seeks indemnification hereunder, neither B-Balloon, Neovasc nor any of their respective shareholders shall be liable for such portion of the Losses that exceeds the value of the B-Balloon Escrowed Securities or Neovasc Escrowed Securities, as the case may be.

10.4 Satisfaction of Parent Indemnification.

Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will Parent by liable to any Parties or third party beneficiaries hereunder for any amount which exceeds, in the aggregate, 10% of the Parent Shares, Parent Assumed Options and Parent Assumed Warrants issued hereunder.

10.5 Sole Remedy; Limitation of Damages; Basket.

No Party hereto shall be required to make an indemnification payment to an indemnitee pursuant to this Article X until such time as the total amount of Losses that have been incurred or suffered by one or more of the indemnitees hereunder exceeds $50,000; if the total amount if such Losses exceeds $50,000, the indemnitee(s) shall be entitled to be indemnified against and compensated and reimbursed for the entire amount of such Losses, and not merely the portion of such Losses exceeding $50,000.

10.6 Right to Indemnification Not Affected by Knowledge or Waiver. The right to indemnification, payment of losses or other remedy based upon breach of representations, warranties, or covenants will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, or covenant.

AMENDED STOCK OPTION PLAN
(Containing Amendments made Effective November 22, 2005)

Medical Ventures Corp. (the “Company") hereby establishes a stock option plan for directors, officers and Service Providers (as defined below) of the Company and its subsidiaries, to be known as the "Medical Ventures Corp. Stock Option Plan" (the "Plan"). The purpose of the Plan is to give to directors, officers and Service Providers, as additional compensation, the opportunity to participate in the profitability of the Company by granting to such individuals options to buy shares of the Company at a price equal to the market price prevailing on the date the option is granted.

The Board may from time to time authorize the issue of Options to directors, officers and Service Providers of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Option Price under each Option shall be not less than the Discounted Market Price if listed on the TSX Venture Exchange or the Market Price if listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the Grant Date. The Expiry Date for each Option shall be set by the Board at the time of issue of the Option and shall not be more than five years after the Grant Date if the Company is designated as a Tier 2 issuer on the TSX Venture Exchange or ten years if the Company is designated as a Tier 1 on the TSX Venture Exchange or listed on The Toronto Stock Exchange Options shall not be assignable (or transferable) by the Optionee.

The maximum number of Shares which may be issuable pursuant to options granted under the Plan shall be 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Company from time to time. The number of Shares which may be reserved for issuance under the Plan, together with all of the Company's other previously established or proposed share compensation arrangements, within a one-year period:

The number of options to purchase Shares that may be granted in a one-year period:

For the purposes of this section, Shares issued pursuant to an entitlement granted prior to the grantee becoming an Insider may be excluded in determining the number of Shares issuable to Insiders. For the purposes of subsections (a) and (b) above, "outstanding issue" is determined on the basis of the number of Shares that are outstanding immediately prior to the Share issuance in question, excluding Shares issued pursuant to Share compensation arrangements over the preceding one-year period.

Each Option shall be confirmed by the execution of an Option Agreement. Each Optionee shall have the option to purchase from the Company the Option Shares at the time and in the manner set out in the Plan and in the Option Agreement applicable to that Optionee. For stock options to Employees, Consultants or Management Company Employees, the Company is representing in the Plan and in the applicable Stock Option Agreement that the Optionee is a bona fide Employee, Consultant, or Management Company (as defined in the applicable policies of the Exchanges), as the case may be, of the Company or its subsidiary. The execution of an Option Agreement shall constitute conclusive evidence that it has been completed in compliance with this Plan.

Subject to sections 4.3 and 4.4, an Option may be exercised to purchase any number of Shares up to the number of Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time after the Grant Date up to 5:00 p.m. Vancouver time on the Expiry Date and shall not be exerciseable thereafter.

The Option shall be exercisable by delivering to the Company a notice specifying the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised together with payment in full of the Option Price for each such Share. Upon notice and payment there will be a binding contract for the issue of the Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised, upon and subject to the provisions of the Plan. Delivery of the Optionee's cheque payable to the Company in the amount of the Option Price shall constitute payment of the Option Price unless the cheque is not honoured upon presentation in which case the Option shall not have been validly exercised.

The Directors may determine and impose terms upon which each Option shall become Vested in respect of Option Shares.

If an Optionee ceases to be a director, officer or Service Provider of the Company or one of the Company’s subsidiaries, his or her Option shall be exercisable as follows:

For greater certainty, an Option that had not become Vested in respect of certain Unissued Option Shares at the time that the relevant event referred to in this paragraph 4.4 occurred, shall not be or become exercisable in respect of such Unissued Option Shares and shall be cancelled.

If a bona fide offer (an “Offer”) for Shares is made to the Optionee or to shareholders of the Company generally or to a class of shareholders which includes the Optionee, which Offer, if accepted in whole or in part, would result in the offeror becoming a control person of the Company, within the meaning of subsection 1(1) of the Securities Act, the Company shall, immediately upon receipt of notice of the Offer, notify each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer, whereupon all Option Shares subject to such Option will become Vested whereupon the Option may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee so as to permit the Optionee to tender the Option Shares received upon such exercise pursuant to the Offer. However, if:

then the Option Shares received upon such exercise, or in the case of clause (b) above the Option Shares that are not taken up and paid for, shall be returned by the Optionee to the Company and reinstated as authorized but unissued Shares and with respect to such returned Option Shares, the Option shall be reinstated as if it had not been exercised and the terms for such Option Shares becoming Vested shall be reinstated pursuant to paragraph 4.3. If any Option Share are returned to the Company under this paragraph 4.5, the Company shall immediately refund the exercise price to the Optionee for such Option Shares.

If at any time when an Option granted under the Plan remains unexercised with respect to any Unissued Option Shares, an Offer is made by an offeror, the Directors may, upon notifying each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer, declare all Option Shares issuable upon the exercise of Options granted under the Plan Vested and accelerate the Expiry Date for the exercise of all unexercised Options granted under the Plan so that all Options will either be exercised or expire prior to the date upon which Shares must be tendered pursuant to the Offer.

If a Change of Control occurs, all Option Shares subject to each outstanding Option will become Vested, whereupon such Option may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee.

If the Optionee, or, in the case of an Option granted to an Optionee who falls under the definition of Service Provider set out in subsection 2.23(c), the Optionee's employer, retires, resigns or is terminated from employment or engagement with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, the loss or limitation, if any, pursuant to the Option Agreement with respect to the right to purchase Option Shares which were not Vested at that time or which, if Vested, were cancelled, shall not give rise to any right to damages and shall

not be included in the calculation of nor form any part of any severance allowance, retiring allowance or termination settlement of any kind whatsoever in respect of such Optionee.

Subject to the provisions of the Company Act (British Columbia) or other applicable corporate statute and, if required, subject to prior acceptance of the Exchanges, the Board of Directors of the Company may at any time or from time to time authorize the Company to provide financial assistance to an Optionee, on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may determine, to assist such Optionee in exercising his or her Options. Any financial assistance so provided will be repayable with full recourse.

Any Unissued Option Shares not acquired by an Optionee under an Option which has expired may be made the subject of a further Option pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.

Whenever the Company issues Shares to all or substantially all holders of Shares by way of a stock dividend or other distribution, or subdivides all outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares, or combines or consolidates all outstanding Shares into a lesser number of Shares (each of such events being herein called a "Share Reorganization") then effective immediately after the record date for such dividend or other distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or consolidation, for each Option:

Subject to the prior approval of the Exchanges, whenever the Company issues by way of a dividend or otherwise distributes to all or substantially all holders of Shares;

then to the extent that such dividend or distribution does not constitute a Share Reorganization (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a "Special Distribution"), and effective immediately after the record date at which holders of Shares are determined for purposes of the Special Distribution, for each Option the Option Price will be reduced, and the number of Unissued Option Shares will be correspondingly increased, by such amount, if any, as is determined by the Board in its sole and unfettered discretion to be appropriate in order to properly reflect any diminution in value of the Shares as a result of such Special Distribution.

(any such event being herein called a "Corporate Reorganization") the Optionee will have an option to purchase (at the times, for the consideration, and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Plan) and will accept on the exercise of such option, in lieu of the Unissued Option Shares which he would otherwise have been entitled to purchase, the kind and amount of shares or other securities or property that he would have been entitled to receive as a result of the Corporate Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, he had been the holder of all Unissued Option Shares or if appropriate, as otherwise determined by the Directors.

If any questions arise at any time with respect to the Option Price or number of Unissued Option Shares deliverable upon exercise of an Option following a Share Reorganization, Special Distribution or Corporate Reorganization, such questions shall be conclusively determined by the Company’s auditors, or, if they decline to so act, any other firm of Chartered Accountants in Vancouver, British Columbia, that the Directors may designate and who will have access to all appropriate records and such determination will be binding upon the Company and all Optionees.

Any adjustment to the Option Price or the number of unissued Option Shares purchasable under the Plan pursuant to the operation of any one of paragraphs 5.1, 5.2 or 5.3 is subject to the approval of the Exchanges and any other governmental authority having jurisdiction.

Neither this Plan nor any of the provisions hereof shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to employment or continued employment with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to terminate such employment.

The Plan shall be effective only upon the approval of the shareholders of the Company given by way of an ordinary resolution. Any Options granted under this Plan prior to such approval shall only be exercised upon the receipt of such approval. Disinterested shareholder approval (as required by the Exchanges) will be obtained for any reduction in the exercise price of the Optionee is an Insider of the Company at the time of the proposed amendment. The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares in accordance with the Plan is subject to the approval of the Exchanges and any governmental authority having jurisdiction. If any shares cannot be issued to any Optionee for any reason, including, without limitation, the failure to obtain such approval, then the obligation of the Company to issue such Shares shall terminate and any Option Price paid by an Optionee to the Company shall be immediately refunded to the Optionee by the Company.

The Directors shall, without limitation, have full and final authority in their discretion, but subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable in respect of the Plan. Except as set forth in section 5.4, the interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan by the Directors shall be final and conclusive. Administration of the Plan shall be the responsibility of the appropriate officers of the Company and all costs in respect thereof shall be paid by the Company. Directors may delegate administration of the Plan to a committee of the Board.

As a condition of and prior to participation in the Plan any Optionee shall on request authorize the Company in writing to withhold from any remuneration otherwise payable to him or her any amounts required by any taxing authority to be withheld for taxes of any kind as a consequence of his or her participation in the Plan.

The Directors may from time to time, subject to applicable law and to the prior approval, if required, of the Exchanges or any other regulatory body having authority over the Company or the Plan, suspend, terminate or discontinue the Plan at any time, or amend or revise the terms of the Plan or of any Option granted under the Plan and the Option Agreement relating thereto, provided that no such amendment, revision, suspension, termination or discontinuance shall in any manner adversely affect any Option previously granted to an Optionee under the Plan without the consent of that Optionee.

A notice given to the Company shall be in writing, signed by the Optionee and delivered to the Secretary of the Company.

The Company makes no representation or warranty as to the future market value of any Shares issued in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

If any provision of the Plan or any Option Agreement contravenes any law or any order, policy, by-law or regulation of any regulatory body or Exchange having authority over the Company or the Plan, then such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent required to bring such provision into compliance therewith.

An Optionee shall have no rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company in respect of any of the Unissued Option Shares (including, without limitation, voting rights or any right to receive dividends, warrants or rights under any rights offering).

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Plan and an Option Agreement, the provisions of this Plan shall govern.

The Plan and each Option Agreement issued pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the province of British Columbia.

Time is of the essence of this Plan and of each Option Agreement. No extension of time will be deemed to be or to operate as a waiver of the essentiality of time.

This Plan and the Option Agreement sets out the entire agreement between the Company and the Optionees relative to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, undertakings and understandings, whether oral or written.

Approved by the Board of Directors on October 28, 2003, as amended November 22, 2005.

Without prior approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“Exchange”) and compliance with all applicable securities legislation, the securities represented by this agreement and any securities issued upon exercise thereof may not be sold, transferred, hypothecated or otherwise traded on or through the facilities of the Exchange or otherwise in Canada or to or for the benefit of a Canadian resident untill, 200l.

The following schedules are delivered pursuant to the Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Agreement") by and among B-Balloon Ltd., an Israeli company ("Brother"), Neovasc Medical Ltd., an Israeli company ("Nephew"), Medical Ventures Corp., a Canadian corporation ("Parent"), Medical Ventures Acquisition 1 Ltd., an Israeli company, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub I") and Medical Ventures Acquisition 2 Ltd., an Israeli company which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub II").

Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

This Schedule of Exceptions ("Schedules") and the information and disclosures contained in the Schedules are intended only to qualify and limit the representations, warranties and covenants of Nephew contained in Article V of the Agreement, and shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any of such representations, warranties or covenants.

The section numbers in these Schedules correspond to the section numbers in Article V of the Agreement. The headings contained in these Schedules are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of these Schedules.

Inclusion of information herein shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material to the business of Nephew, such that it may give rise to circumstances which may result in a Material Adverse Effect on Nephew, or that such information is otherwise material.

All amounts referenced in these Schedules, unless expressly stated otherwise, are stated before taxes, deductions or withholding requirements as applicable to such amounts as may be levied or imposed under applicable law.

These Schedules shall not be relied on by any person other than Nephew and Parent, and shall not be deemed an admission of liability or a statement of fact towards any person other than such parties, including, with respect to the employees, suppliers, creditors of Nephew or any other third party.

Where the terms of an agreement or other disclosure item have been summarized or described in these Schedules, such summary or description does not purport to be a complete statement of the material terms of such agreement or other item.

The listing of each of the agreement, instrument, or item in these Schedules shall be deemed to include any agreements, documents, contracts, and instruments, which are annexed, attached, ancillary, or related to such agreement, instrument, or item, respectively.

The authorization of the contemplated Agreement by Nephew is subject to all applicable legal requirements to convene, give notice of and hold a Nephew General Meeting with class voting and voting in accordance with Section 320(c) of the Israel Companies Law, and in accordance with Nephew’s Articles of Association, to vote on the proposal to approve the Nephew Merger, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

The State of Israel has a lien on the Nephew Shares held by Incentive Incubator L.P., in accordance with the agreement under Directive 8.3 of the Director General of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Employment (regarding pilot technological incubators), within the framework of the technological incubator operated by Incentive Incubator L.P., for the Project entitled “Cardiological Device”.

A Bank Guarantee of USD 10,000 has been issued by Nephew’s bank, on behalf of Nephew, in favor of Nephew’s lessor.

Nephew does not have FDA approval, CE approval, CE mark or any other similar approval for the sales of its products. These approvals will be required in order to commercialize Nephew’s products. Nephew believes that a Pre Market Authorization (PMA) will be required under the FDA clearance procedure.

See the Top Notch Agreement listed in Schedule 5.6(a) . It is in Nephew’s opinion that the transaction contemplated hereby does not satisfy the definition of “Financing” under said agreement; it is possible that the finder will claim otherwise. No assurance is being given in connection with such a possible claim by the finder.

Nephew’s interim CEO as of the date hereof, Avi Molcho, is also a venture partner in Forbion Capital Partners (a Dutch VC fund). Avi Molcho has resigned effective as of February 23, 2008.
