The Notice of Meeting, form of proxy, supplemental mailing card and this Circular will be mailed to Shareholders commencing on or about October 23, 2014. The information contained herein is given as of October 10, 2014, except as otherwise stated. Unless otherwise indicated, all references in this document to "$" and "dollars" are to United States dollars and all references to "CDN$" are to Canadian dollars.

VOTING INFORMATION

Solicitation of Proxies

The solicitation of proxies by management of the Company will be conducted by mail and may be supplemented by telephone or other personal contact, and such solicitation will be made without special compensation granted to the directors, officers and employees of the Company. The Company does not reimburse Shareholders, nominees or agents for costs incurred in obtaining, from the principals of such persons, authorization to execute forms of proxy, except that the Company has requested brokers and nominees who hold stock in their respective names to furnish this Circular and related proxy materials to their customers, and the Company will reimburse such brokers and nominees for their related out of pocket expenses. No solicitation will be made by specifically engaged employees or soliciting agents. The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Company.

No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representation other than as contained in this Circular in connection with the solicitation of proxies. If given or made, such information or representations must not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Company. The delivery of this Circular shall not create, under any circumstances, any implication that there has been no change in the information set forth herein since the date of this Circular. This Circular does not constitute the solicitation of a proxy by anyone in any jurisdiction in which such solicitation is not authorized, or in which the person making such solicitation is not qualified to do so, or to anyone to whom it is unlawful to make such an offer of solicitation.

Record Date

The Board has set the close of business (New York time) on October 3, 2014 as the record date (the "Record Date") for determining which Shareholders shall be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Only Shareholders of record as of the Record Date ("Registered Shareholders") are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Persons who acquire Common Shares after the Record Date will not be entitled to vote such Common Shares at the Meeting.

Appointment of Proxyholders

Registered Shareholders are entitled to vote at the Meeting. A Shareholder is entitled to one vote for each Common Share that such Shareholder holds on the Record Date on the resolutions to be voted upon at the Meeting and any other matter to come before the Meeting.

The persons named as proxyholders (the "Designated Persons") in the enclosed form of proxy are directors and/or officers of the Company.

A Registered Shareholder has the right to appoint a person or corporation (who need not be a Shareholder) to attend and act for or on behalf of that Shareholder at the Meeting, other than the Designated Persons named in the enclosed form of proxy. A Registered Shareholder may exercise this right by striking out the printed names and inserting the name of such other person and, if desired, an alternate to such person in the blank space provided in the form of proxy.

In order to be voted, the completed form of proxy must be received by the Company, by mail or by hand, to the attention of Proxy Services c/o Computershare Investors Services, PO Box 43102, Providence, Rhode Island, USA 02940-5068, by 11:00 a.m. (Mexico City time) on November 12, 2014 (or a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or holiday which is at least 48 hours before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) of the Meeting). Shareholders may also provide their voting instructions by telephone by calling toll free 1-800-652-VOTE (8683) or through the Internet at www.envisionreports.com/MFCI. The time limit for the deposit of proxies may be waived by the Board at its discretion without notice.

A proxy may not be valid unless it is dated and signed by the Registered Shareholder who is giving it or by that Shareholder's attorney-in-fact duly authorized by that Shareholder in writing or, in the case of a corporation, dated and executed by a duly authorized officer, or attorney-in-fact, for the corporation. If a form of proxy is executed by an attorney-in-fact for an individual Shareholder or joint Shareholders, or by an officer or attorney-in-fact for a corporate Shareholder, the instrument so empowering the officer or attorney-in-fact, as the case may be, or a notarially certified copy thereof, should accompany the form of proxy.

Revocability of Proxy

Any Registered Shareholder who has returned a form of proxy may revoke it at any time before it has been exercised. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a form of proxy may be revoked by instrument in writing, including a form of proxy bearing a later date, executed by the Registered Shareholder or by his or her attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing or, if the Registered Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by a duly authorized officer or attorney-in-fact thereof. The instrument revoking the form of proxy must be deposited at the same address where the original form of proxy was delivered at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any adjournment or adjournments thereof, or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the date of, but prior to the commencement of, the Meeting. A Registered Shareholder who has submitted a form of proxy may also revoke it by attending the Meeting in person (or if the Shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized representative of the corporation attending the Meeting) and registering with the scrutineer thereat as a Registered Shareholder present in person, whereupon such form of proxy shall be deemed to have been revoked.

Only Registered Shareholders have the right to revoke a form of proxy. Non-Registered Holders (as hereinafter defined) who wish to change their vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, arrange for their respective Intermediaries (as hereinafter defined) to revoke the form of proxy on their behalf.

Voting of Common Shares and Proxies and Exercise of Discretion by Designated Persons

A Shareholder may indicate the manner in which the Designated Persons are to vote with respect to a matter to be voted upon at the Meeting by marking the appropriate space. If the instructions as to voting indicated in the proxy are certain, the Common Shares represented by the form of proxy will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions given in the form of proxy. If the Shareholder specifies a choice in the form of proxy with respect to a matter to be acted upon, then the Common Shares represented will be voted or withheld from the vote on that matter accordingly.

2

If no choice is specified in the form of proxy with respect to a matter to be acted upon, the form of proxy confers discretionary authority with respect to that matter upon the Designated Persons named in the form of proxy. It is intended that the Designated Persons will vote the Common Shares represented by the form of proxy in favour of each matter identified in the form of proxy, including the vote for the election of the nominee to the Board and for the appointment of the independent auditors of the Company.

The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the persons named therein with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting, including any amendments or variations to any matters identified in the Notice of Meeting, and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. At the date of this Circular, management of the Company is not aware of any such amendments, variations, or other matters to come before the Meeting.

In the case of abstentions from, or withholding of, the voting of the Common Shares on any matter, the Common Shares that are the subject of the abstention or withholding will be counted for the determination of a quorum, but will not be counted as affirmative or negative on the matter to be voted upon.

NON-REGISTERED HOLDERS

Only Registered Shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Most Shareholders are "non-registered" Shareholders because the Common Shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the Common Shares. More particularly, a person is not a Registered Shareholder in respect of Common Shares which are held on behalf of that person (the "Non-Registered Holder") but which are registered either: (a) in the name of an intermediary (an "Intermediary") that the Non-Registered Holder deals with in respect of the Common Shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators or self-administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. or the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation) of which the Intermediary is a participant. In accordance with the requirements set out in Canadian National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer ("NI 54-101"), the Company has distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, this Circular and the form of proxy (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") to the clearing agencies and Intermediaries for onward distribution to Non-Registered Holders.

Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders unless a Non-Registered Holder has waived the right to receive them. Very often, Intermediaries will use service companies to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Holders. Generally, Non-Registered Holders who have not waived the right to receive Meeting Materials will either:

(a)

be given a form of proxy which has already been signed by the Intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature), which is restricted as to the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Non-Registered Holder but which is otherwise not completed. Because the Intermediary has already signed the form of proxy, this form of proxy is not required to be signed by the Non-Registered Holder when submitting the proxy. In this case, the Non-Registered Holder who wishes to submit a proxy should otherwise properly complete the form of proxy and deposit it with the Company as provided above; or

(b)

more typically, be given a voting instruction form which is not signed by the Intermediary, and which, when properly completed and signed by the Non-Registered Holder and returned to the Intermediary or its service company, will constitute voting instructions (often called a "proxy authorization form") which the Intermediary must follow. Typically, the proxy authorization form will consist of a one page pre-printed form. Sometimes, instead of a one page pre-printed form, the proxy authorization form will consist of a regular printed proxy form accompanied by a page of instructions, which contains a removable label containing a bar-code and other information. In order for the form of proxy to validly constitute a proxy authorization form, the Non-Registered Holder must remove the label from the instructions and affix it to the form of proxy, properly complete and sign the form of proxy and return it to the Intermediary or its service company in accordance with the instructions of the Intermediary or its service company.

3

In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the voting of the Common Shares which they beneficially own. Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting in person, the Non-Registered Holder should strike out the names of the management proxyholders named in the form and insert the Non-Registered Holder's name in the blank space provided. In either case, Non-Registered Holders should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary, including those regarding when and where the proxy or proxy authorization form is to be delivered.

There are two kinds of beneficial owners – those who object to their name being made known to the issuers of securities which they own (called OBOs for Objecting Beneficial Owners) and those who do not object to the issuers of the securities they own knowing who they are (called NOBOs for Non-Objecting Beneficial Owners). Pursuant to NI 54-101, issuers can obtain a list of their NOBOs from Intermediaries for distribution of proxy-related materials directly to NOBOs.

These securityholder materials are being sent to both Registered Shareholders and Non-Registered Holders. If you are a Non-Registered Holder and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary holding such securities on your behalf.

VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

As at October 3, 2014, being the Record Date, there were a total of 63,092,272 Common Shares issued and outstanding. Each Common Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote at the Meeting. The following table sets forth, as of the date hereof, to the best of the Company's knowledge and based solely upon publicly available records and filings, the only persons or companies which beneficially own, or control or direct, directly or indirectly, voting securities carrying 10% or more of the votes attached to the issued and outstanding Common Shares as of the date hereof:

Name	Amount Owned	Percent of Class
Peter Kellogg	20,662,400(1)	32.7%

____________________

Note:

(1) Mr. Kellogg controls 13,405,000 Common Shares through IAT Reinsurance Company Ltd. ("IAT"). In his public filings, Mr. Kellogg disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares owned by IAT. In addition, in his public filings, Mr. Kellogg disclaims beneficial ownership of 1,200,000 Common Shares owned by his wife.

RECEIPT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The directors will place before the Meeting the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013 together with the auditors' report thereon, which are included in the annual report of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013.

AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES

The Company's Articles presently provide for three classes of directors with staggered terms. Each director holds office until the expiry of his or her term or until his or her successor is elected or appointed, unless his or her office is earlier vacated in accordance with the Articles of the Company or with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). At each annual meeting of the Company, a class of directors is elected to hold office for a three-year term. Successors to the class of directors whose terms expire are identified as being of the same class as the directors they succeed and are elected to hold office for a term expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting of the Shareholders. A director appointed or elected to fill a vacancy on the Board holds office for the unexpired term of his or her predecessor.

The Board is proposing that Shareholders pass a special resolution amending the Company's Articles to provide for the annual election of directors on a one-year term basis. Shareholders will be asked to consider, and if deemed advisable, approve an amendment (the "Amendment") to the existing Articles, specifically Article 11.1 thereof, which will remove the three-year staggered terms for directors and replace it with annual director retirement from office and re-election on a one-year term basis. As part of this special resolution, Shareholders will also be asked to approve the consequential removal of the directors whose terms of office do not expire at the Meeting, so all seven directors can be elected at the Meeting for a term expiring at the Company's next annual general meeting if the Amendment to the Articles is passed. Pursuant to the Company's Articles, the majority of votes required to pass a special resolution at a meeting of Shareholders is two-thirds of the votes cast on the resolution. The text of the special resolution to approve the Amendment is set forth at Schedule "B" hereto.

4

If the Shareholders approve the Amendment, all seven nominees for directors, as set out below, will stand for election for a one-year term at the Meeting, such term to expire at the next annual general meeting of Shareholders. If the Shareholders do not approve the Amendment, three nominees for directors will stand for election for a three-year term and the continuing directors will continue to hold office until the expiration of their respective terms, at which time they will be eligible for re-election for a three-year term.

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote at the Meeting IN FAVOUR of the special resolution approving the Amendment of the Articles of the Company, the form of which is set out in Schedule "B" hereto, unless the Shareholder has specified in the form of proxy that its Common Shares are to be voted against the resolution. In recommending that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Amendment, the Board considered that the Amendment would improve the corporate governance of the Company by bringing the election of directors of the Company into conformity with current corporate governance "best practices". In view of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the approval of the Amendment to the Articles will be in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company's Articles currently provide for three classes of directors with staggered terms, as described above. As described above, at the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve the Amendment, which, if approved, would result in the de-staggering of the Board of Directors.

If Shareholders Approve the Amendment

If the Amendment receives the requisite Shareholder approval at the Meeting, at the Meeting, Shareholders will be called upon to elect seven directors of the Company by ordinary resolution. The Board has selected Michael J. Smith, Peter R. Kellogg, Gerardo Cortina, Indrajit Chatterjee, Silke Stenger, William Horn and Dr. Shuming Zhao as its nominees.

If Shareholders Do Not Approve the Amendment

If the Amendment is not approved by Shareholders at the Meeting, at the Meeting, Shareholders will be called upon to re-elect three directors, who are currently Class III directors of the Company, by ordinary resolution. The Board has selected Michael J. Smith, Gerardo Cortina and Dr. Shuming Zhao as its nominees.

Indrajit Chatterjee and Silke Stenger have one year remaining in their terms as Class I directors of the Company, which term expires at the annual meeting of Shareholders to be held in 2015. Mr. Chatterjee is currently a member of the Company's Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees. Ms. Stenger was first appointed a director of the Company in August 2013 and serves on the Company's Audit, Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees.

Messrs. Kellogg and Horn have two years remaining in their terms as Class II directors of the Company, which terms expire at the annual meeting of Shareholders to be held in 2016. Mr. Kellogg is the Chairman of the Company and currently serves on the Company's Compensation Committee. Mr. Horn currently serves on the Company's Audit Committee.

Corporate Cease Trade Orders

Other than as otherwise disclosed herein, to the best of the Company's knowledge, none of the nominees are, as of the date of this Circular, and have not been, within 10 years before the date hereof, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of any company (including the Company) that was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied such company access to any exemption under securities legislation that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days, issued either while that person was acting in that capacity or after that person ceased to act in that capacity if it resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in that capacity.

In late 2009, LMS Medical Systems, Inc. ("LMS") was issued cease trade orders by the Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario securities commissions and the Autorité des marchés financiers in Québec as a result of LMS's failure to file its annual filings for the year ended March 31, 2009. During this time period, LMS and its subsidiary, LMS Medical Systems (Canada) Ltd., were in the process of entering a proposal under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), through which (in July 2009) they sold substantially all of their assets and satisfied their creditor obligations 100 percent. Mr. Horn became a director of LMS in 2008 and was subsequently appointed as interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to guide LMS through the bankruptcy process.

EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

In June 2014, the Board approved a new Equity Incentive Plan of the Company (the "2014 Plan"). At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve an ordinary resolution to adopt the 2014 Plan. The text of the ordinary resolution to approve the 2014 Plan is set forth below. To be effective, the resolution to approve the 2014 Plan must be passed by the majority of votes cast by Shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Meeting. The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote at the Meeting IN FAVOUR of this resolution, unless the Shareholder has specified in the form of proxy that its Common Shares are to be voted against the resolution.

The Board intends that the 2014 Plan will replace the Company's 2008 Equity Incentive Plan and the Company's 1997 Stock Option Plan and any plans emanating or deriving therefrom (collectively, the "Prior Plans"); provided, however, that each applicable Prior Plan will govern prior awards granted under such Prior Plan until all awards granted under such Prior Plan prior to the Effective Date (as defined herein) have been exercised, forfeited, cancelled, expired or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms thereof. The Plan permits the grant of options, restricted stock rights, restricted stock, performance shares, performance share units and stock appreciation rights ("SARs").

Below is a summary of the material features of the 2014 Plan, which is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2014 Plan, attached hereto as Schedule "C".

Purpose

The purpose of the 2014 Plan is to promote the long-term success of the Company and the creation of Shareholder value by encouraging the attraction and retention of employees and non-employee directors with exceptional qualifications, encouraging them to focus on the critical long-range objectives of the Company and linking their interests directly to Shareholder interests through increased share ownership. The 2014 Plan is intended to achieve this purpose by providing for awards to participants in the form of restricted shares, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance share units, options and/or SARs. The Company believes it is important to have flexibility to grant various types of equity awards to its employees so that it can react appropriately to the changing environment.

8

Eligibility

Awards granted under the 2014 Plan may be made only to those persons who are employees, officers, consultants to and non-employee directors of the Company on the grant date of the award.

Stock Subject to the 2014 Plan

Subject to adjustment for changes in capitalization, the total number of Common Shares subject to all awards under the 2014 Plan will initially be 2,000,000 Common Shares plus the number of Common Shares remaining available under the Prior Plans, which, as at the date hereof, was 877,018.

The maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued as incentive stock options under the 2014 Plan is limited to 2,000,000. Further, the maximum number of Common Shares that may be granted to any one participant in the 2014 Plan, who is a Covered Employee (as defined in the 2014 Plan) during the fiscal year where such participant's employment commences, shall be 400,000 and 350,000 for all other fiscal years.

In addition, the aggregate fair value of Awards (as defined in the 2014 Plan) granted to any one non-employee director cannot exceed $100,000 in any one year, and the aggregate number of securities issuable to all non-employee directors cannot exceed 1% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares.

Types of Awards

The 2014 Plan allows MFC to grant the following types of awards: options; restricted stock rights; restricted stock; performance shares; performance share units; and SARs.

Stock Options

The Company's compensation committee of the Board (the "Committee") may grant stock options qualifying as incentive stock options ("ISOs") under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and non-qualified stock options. The Committee determines the exercise price of such options. However, no options shall be granted at an exercise price that is less than the Fair Market Value (defined in the 2014 Plan as the closing price of the shares reported on the New York Stock Exchange on such date) of one Common Share on the grant date of the option. The Committee also determines the time or times at which options may be exercised (within 10 years from the grant date) and the method by which the exercise price of an option may be paid and the form of payment, but cannot reprice options previously granted under the 2014 Plan.

ISOs will lapse 10 years from the date they are granted, 90 days after the date of a participant's termination of employment for any reason other than death or disability, or six months after the date of a participant's termination of employment on the account of death or disability.

Restricted Stock Rights

A restricted stock right award gives the participant the right to receive Common Shares or a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value (determined as of a specified date in the future). Common Shares are not issued under the award until specified restrictions lapse. The restrictions will lapse in accordance with a schedule or other condition determined by the Committee.

Participants holding restricted stock rights have no voting rights or rights to dividends with respect to the underlying Common Shares prior to the issuance of such Common Shares pursuant to the 2014 Plan. Payments for any vested restricted stock rights shall be made in one lump sum payment of shares, cash or a combination hereof, equal to the Fair Market Value of a specified number of Common Shares.

9

Restricted Stock

A restricted stock award gives the participant the right to receive a specified number of Common Shares at a purchase price determined by the Committee. As a general rule, if a participant terminates employment at a time when the restricted stock rights are subject to restrictions, the participant forfeits the unvested restricted stock rights.

Holders of restricted stock awarded under the 2014 Plan shall have the same voting, dividend and other rights as MFC's other Shareholders, subject to the terms of any applicable restricted stock agreement. The Committee establishes restrictions on transferability, the consideration for such awards and the type of vesting. Except as determined by the Committee, restricted stock previously granted will also be forfeited upon the failure to satisfy one or more performance criteria by the holder.

Performance Shares and Performance Units

A performance share award gives the participant the right to receive Common Shares if the participant achieves the performance goals established by the Committee during the performance period, as established by the Committee. Performance share units give participants the rights to shares, a cash payment or a combination of shares or cash if certain performance goals established by the Committee are met. All such payments shall be made in a lump sum.

Stock Appreciation Rights

A SAR gives the participant the right to share in the appreciation in value of one Common Share. The Committee determines the conditions and restrictions relating to SARs. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the holder shall be entitled to receive payment in an amount determined by multiplying (a) the difference, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one Common Share on the date of exercise over the price of the SAR fixed by the Committee at the grant date, which shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Common Share at the grant date, by (b) the number of Common Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.

Performance Based Awards

The Committee may designate certain awards it grants as performance based within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

Performance goals, which are defined in the 2014 Plan as the goals established by the Committee based on performance criteria set by the Committee, can be expressed in terms of overall Company performance or the performance of a division or an individual and may be stated in terms of absolute levels or relative to another company or index. Performance goals must be established within 90 days of the commencement of a performance period, and their outcome must be substantially uncertain at the time of establishment. The Committee cannot establish performance goals for any performance based award after 25% of the performance period for such award has lapsed. The Committee, in its discretion, also may adjust or modify the calculation of performance goals for such performance period in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the rights of participants to the 2014 Plan.

All recipients of performance based awards must be employees of the Company.

Adjustment to Capitalization

In the event of any change in the outstanding Common Shares by reason of a stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination, reorganization, exchange of shares, or other similar corporate change, the aggregate number of Common Shares available under the 2014 Plan and subject to each outstanding award, and its stated exercise price or the basis upon which the award is measured, shall be adjusted appropriately by the Committee.

Change in Control Provisions

The 2014 Plan contains a "double trigger" change in control provision whereby 2014 Plan participants who are employees or officers of, or consultants to, the Company only receive benefits when either their employment or service terminates due to their discharge without cause or resignation with good reason in connection with a change in control, or at the discretion of the Committee.

10

Forfeiture Provisions

The Committee will specify in an award agreement that a participant's rights, payments and benefits with respect to an award shall be subject to reduction, cancelation or forfeiture upon the occurrence of specified events such as termination of employment for cause, a violation of company policies, fraud or a breach of a noncompetition or confidentiality restrictive covenant.

The Company also has discretion to immediately terminate a person's right to any further payments, vesting or exercisability with respect to any award in its entirety, and to determine whether a participant in the 2014 Plan has been terminated for cause and the date upon which such termination for cause occurs. All such determinations are final.

Share-Counting Rules

The 2014 Plan provides that the underlying Common Shares related to any award granted under the 2014 Plan that terminates, expires, lapses or is paid in cash will again be available for a grant under such plan. However, the 2014 Plan does not permit Common Shares tendered to pay the exercise price of an option, or tendered or withheld to satisfy a tax withholding obligation arising in connection with an award, to become available for grant or sale under the 2014 Plan. Additionally, the 2014 Plan provides that the exercise of a stock-settled SAR or broker-assisted "cashless" exercise of an option will reduce the number of Common Shares available for issuance under the 2014 Plan by the entire number of Common Shares subject to that SAR or option.

Award Repricing

The 2014 Plan explicitly prohibits the repricing of options.

Transferability

According to the 2014 Plan, with limited exceptions, no award granted under the 2014 Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, and assigned unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

Amendment, Modification and Termination

The Board may at any time terminate, amend or modify the 2014 Plan, provided that such action be subject to approval by Shareholders when required by law, regulation, any stock exchange rule for any exchange on which the Common Shares are listed or the terms of the 2014 Plan. Additionally, no amendment, modification or termination of the 2014 Plan or any award under the 2014 Plan shall in any manner adversely affect any award previously granted without the consent of the holder thereof.

Specifically, the 2014 Plan mandates that neither the Board nor the Committee may, without the approval of Shareholders, (a) reduce the purchase price or exercise price of any outstanding award, including any option or SAR; (b) extend the expiry date of any outstanding option or SAR, except as expressly permitted by the 2014 Plan; (c) increase the number of Common Shares available under the 2014 Plan (other than any adjustment as a result of a recapitalization); (d) grant options with an exercise price that is below Fair Market Value on the grant date; (e) amend the 2014 Plan to remove or to exceed the participation limits set forth in the 2014 Plan; or (f) cancel any option or SAR in exchange for cash or any other award or in exchange for any option or SAR with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original option or SAR.

Tax Withholding

The Company has the power to withhold or require a participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy all withholding tax requirements on any award under the 2014 Plan.

Funding

The Company is not required to segregate any of its assets to ensure payment of any award under the 2014 Plan.

11

No Shareholders Rights

No award gives the participant any of the rights of a Shareholder unless and until Common Shares are in fact issued to such person in connection with such award.

Effective Date and Termination

The 2014 Plan will become effective upon its approval by Shareholders at the Meeting (the "Effective Date") and will terminate on its 10th anniversary, unless earlier terminated in accordance with its provisions.

New Plan Benefits

Because awards under the 2014 Plan are discretionary, benefits or amounts that will hereinafter be received by or allocated to our Chief Executive Officer, our NEOs, all current executive officers as a group, all current directors who are not executive officers as a group, and all employees who are not executive officers are not presently determinable. No awards that are contingent upon obtaining Shareholder approval of the 2014 Plan have been made under the 2014 Plan.

Approval Required

At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve the following by ordinary resolution (the "Plan Resolution"):

	"BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
1.	The 2014 equity incentive plan, substantially in form attached at Schedule "C" of the management information circular of MFC Industrial Ltd. (the "Company") dated October 10, 2014, which accompanies the Notice of Meeting dated October 10, 2014, be, and is hereby, approved, ratified and affirmed; and
2.	any one director or officer of the Company be, and is hereby, authorized to take all such further actions and to execute and deliver all such further instrument and documents, in the name and on behalf of the Company, as may be necessary, proper or advisable in order to carry out and give full effect to the foregoing."

To be effective, the Plan Resolution must be passed by the majority of votes cast by Shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Meeting. The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote at the Meeting IN FAVOUR of this resolution, unless the Shareholder has specified in the form of proxy that its Common Shares are to be voted against the resolution.

APPOINTMENT AND REMUNERATION OF AUDITORS

Management of the Company intends to recommend at the Meeting that Shareholders vote for the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") as auditors of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, and to authorize the directors to fix their remuneration for the ensuing year. PwC was first appointed as auditors of the Company at its last annual general and special meeting of shareholders held on December 27, 2013.

STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

General

Pursuant to applicable securities legislation, the Company is required to provide a summary of all annual compensation for services in all capacities to the Company and its subsidiaries for the most recently completed financial year in respect of the individuals comprised of any persons who acted as either the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company for any part of such year, and each of the other three most highly compensated executive officers of the Company whose total compensation for the most recently completed financial year exceeded $150,000, and any individual who would have satisfied these criteria but for the fact that the individual was not serving as an executive officer, nor acting in a similar capacity, at the end of the most recently completed financial year (the "NEOs").

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

In determining executive compensation, the Compensation Committee aims to encourage and reward performance in order to maintain the position of the Company in a highly competitive environment. The Compensation Committee endeavours to ensure that the Company's compensation policies:

• attract and retain highly qualified and experienced executives and managers as well as align the compensation level of each executive to that executive's level of responsibility;
   
• recognize and reward contributions to the success of the Company as measured by the accomplishment of specific performance objectives; and
   
• ensure that a significant proportion of compensation is at risk and directly linked to the success of the Company.

The Compensation Committee believes that compensation packages for the Company's executives must be designed to attract and retain executives critical to the success of the Company, ensure that executive compensation is linked to both individual and corporate performance and focus executives on business factors that impact shareholder value. The Compensation Committee also considers the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer for executives other than the Chief Financial Officer, and relies on Board discussions in its analysis and recommendations. Compensation for the NEOs for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted of two main components: (i) base salary; and (ii) annual performance incentives.

Base Salary

Base salary reflects annual compensation received by an executive for the position he or she holds and the role he or she performs within the Company. The objective of the base salary, consistent with market practice, is to provide a portion of compensation as a fixed cash amount. Base salaries are intended to attract and retain talented executives and to reflect the skill and level of responsibility of an executive, taking into account market conditions and salaries paid by the Company's competitors. Base salaries are targeted at median market values and balanced with relative roles and responsibilities within the Company. The relative base salary of executive officers reflects their experience, the accountability of their respective roles and the incumbent's performance in such roles. Base salaries are benchmarked internally against similar roles and are then adjusted depending on a NEO's past performance, experience, individual qualifications, promotion or other change in responsibilities and expected future contributions to the Company.

Annual Performance Incentives

The Company's annual performance incentives are designed to reinforce the Company's business strategy as approved by the Board. The objective of awarding annual performance incentives is to provide a component of compensation that rewards near term performance results of the Company as a whole. Such incentives focus attention on the achievement of short term profitability with lesser emphasis on revenues. The annual performance incentives provide executives with the opportunity to earn cash incentives based on the achievement of pre-established individual performance objectives. Awards vary as a percentage of base salary and incentive targets for all levels are reviewed periodically to ensure ongoing market competitiveness. Performance objectives are based on the Company's business plan for the fiscal year as approved by the Board and are intended to be challenging but achievable.

Annual performance incentives are an important component of the total compensation that may be received by a NEO, primarily because they provide the NEO with the potential to receive an annual financial reward based on the achievement of specific goals. Annual performance incentives are designed to achieve three important objectives:

• to motivate and reward eligible executives who contribute to successfully achieving Company goals;
   
• to provide executives with a competitive total compensation package; and
   
• to attract and retain talented executives.

13

The Company's executive incentive program, implemented in 2009, offers cash incentive payouts in return for the Company's executive officers achieving certain short-term, operational and strategic targets as may be established by the Compensation Committee. The intention of the program was to align and motivate the Company's executive team during the Company's 2009 business restructuring program and through the subsequent three to five years. The incentive plan comprised three sets of incentive targets: short-term, operational and strategic. The operational and strategic targets are longer term targets to be based on a business and strategic plan to be developed by management and approved by the Board. Incentive payments against the short-term targets, if achieved and awarded, are to be paid each year, whereas incentive payments against the operational and strategic targets may be earned annually but will accrue for distribution after three years. During the financial year ended December 31, 2013, annual performance incentives were earned by certain NEOs to reflect the satisfaction of certain discretionary performance targets in connection with the Company's business and operations.

Security Based Compensation

Options are granted to executive officers pursuant to the terms of the Company's 1997 stock option plan (the "Option Plan") and awards are available for grant under the Company's 2008 equity incentive plan (the "Incentive Plan"). Grants under the Option Plan and the Incentive Plan are made based on the executive's contribution to the achievement of the Company's goals, taking into account the executive's existing level of equity incentives. In determining whether to grant options or awards under the Option Plan and the Incentive Plan to the executive officers, the Board takes into account previous grants. Please refer to the section of this Circular entitled "Statement of Executive Compensation – Option-Based Awards" below.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, no options to purchase Common Shares were granted to directors or employees of the Company.

At the Meeting, Shareholders are being asked to approve the 2014 Plan, which will replace both the Option Plan and the Incentive Plan. Please see "Equity Incentive Plan" for further details regarding the proposed 2014 Plan.

Risk Management

The Company has taken steps to ensure its executive compensation program does not incent risk outside the Company's risk appetite. Some of the risk management initiatives currently employed by the Company are as follows:

• appointing a Compensation Committee comprised entirely of independent directors to oversee the executive compensation program; and
   
• use of discretion in adjusting bonus payments (if any) up or down as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate and recommends.

The Board and Compensation Committee have discussed and assessed risk related to the Company compensation policies and practices and are of the view that, when looked at in their totality, the Company's compensation policies and practices do not incentivize risk taking outside the Company's risk appetite. The Company does not have any formal policy respecting the purchase by an NEO or a director of financial instruments.

Compensation Governance

The Company has a Compensation Committee, comprised entirely of independent directors, being Peter R. Kellogg, Silke S. Stenger and Indrajit Chatterjee. The Compensation Committee is responsible for, among other things, developing the Company's approach to executive compensation and periodically reviewing the compensation of the directors. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves annual salaries, bonuses and other forms and items of compensation for the Company's senior officers and employees. Except for plans that are, in accordance with their terms or as required by law, administered by the Board or another particularly designated group, the Compensation Committee also administers and implements all of the Option Plan and other stock-based and equity-based benefit plans (including performance-based plans), recommends changes or additions to those plans and reports to the Board on compensation matters. The Board of Directors adopted a revised charter for the Compensation Committee on October 26, 2013, a copy of which is available online at MFC's website at www.mfcindustrial.com. The responsibilities, powers and operation of the Compensation Committee are detailed in the Compensation Committee's charter.

14

The members of the Compensation Committee have direct experience relevant to executive compensation from their broad business experience and are well-versed in executive compensation matters. The members similarly bring a wide range of skills and experience that helps them make decisions in respect of the Company's compensation policies and practices and assess performance on both an individual and an organizational level. These skills and experiences include, but are not limited to: industry knowledge; operational experience; financial knowledge; and international business experience.

Performance Graph

The following chart compares the cumulative total return assuming a $100 investment in the Common Shares with the cumulative total return of the Russell 2000 Index over the five most recently completed financial years, assuming that the $100 investment was made on January 1, 2009 and assuming the reinvestment of dividends.

	1/1/09	31/12/09	31/12/10	31/12/11	31/12/12	31/12/13
MFC Industrial Ltd.	$100	$121.84	$122.38	$112.85	$141.74	$136.20
Russell 2000 Index	$100	$127.17	$161.32	$154.59	$179.86	$249.69

The performance of the Common Shares as set out in the graph above does not necessarily indicate future price performance. Executive compensation has generally followed the trend in shareholder returns. As described above, the Compensation Committee considers various factors in determining the compensation of the NEOs. The Compensation Committee does not consider the price of the Common Shares to be a strong indicator of performance.

15

Option-Based Awards

Pursuant to the terms of the Option Plan, the Board currently administers and implements the Option Plan and the Incentive Plan and recommends changes or additions thereto. The Compensation Committee assists the Board in these respects. The Board determines all option-based awards to be granted pursuant to the Option Plan or the Incentive Plan and any special terms, including any exercise price or vesting provisions applicable thereto. When determining whether to grant new option-based awards to executive officers, the Board takes into account previous grants of option-based awards.

For a summary of the material provisions of the Option Plan, please refer to the section of this Circular entitled "Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans – Option Plan". For a summary of the material provisions of the Incentive Plan, please refer to the section of this Circular entitled "Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans – Incentive Plan".

Summary Compensation Table

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Company paid an aggregate of approximately $1.8 million in cash compensation to its officers, excluding directors' fees.

The Option Plan is administered by the Board. The maximum number of Common Shares which may be reserved and set aside for issuance under the Option Plan is 5,524,000. Each option upon its exercise entitles the grantee to purchase one Common Share.

In the event the Common Shares are not traded on such day, the exercise price may not be less than the average of the closing bid and ask prices of the Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange for the ten trading days immediately prior to the date the option is granted. Options may be granted under the Option Plan for an exercise period of up to ten years from the date such options are granted. During the year ended December 31, 2013, no options to purchase Common Shares were granted to directors, officers or employees under the Option Plan.

Incentive Plan

At the Company's annual and special meeting of the Shareholders held in September 2008, the Shareholders passed a resolution approving the Incentive Plan to further align the interests of the Company's employees and directors with those of the Shareholders by providing incentive compensation opportunities tied to the performance of the Common Shares and by promoting increased ownership of the Common Shares by such individuals.

Pursuant to the terms of the Incentive Plan, the Board, the Compensation Committee or such other committee of the Board as is appointed by the Board to administer the Incentive Plan may grant Awards (as hereinafter defined) under the Incentive Plan, establish the terms and conditions for those Awards, construe and interpret the Incentive Plan and establish the rules for the Incentive Plan's administration. The Board or the relevant committee may grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, stock unit awards, stock awards, performance stock awards and tax bonus awards (each, an "Award") under the Incentive Plan. Awards may be granted to employees, directors, officers or consultants of the Company or any affiliate or any person to whom an offer of employment with the Company or any affiliate is extended. The Board or the relevant committee has the authority to determine which employees, directors, officers, consultants and prospective employees should receive Awards. Non-employee directors and consultants may not receive incentive stock options.

The maximum number of Common Shares that may be issuable pursuant to all Awards granted under the Incentive Plan is 1,500,000 Common Shares. Forfeited, cancelled, returned and lapsed Awards are not counted against the 1,500,000 Common Shares. Any Awards or portions thereof that are settled in cash and not by issuance of Common Shares are not counted against the 1,500,000 Common Shares. During the year ended December 31, 2013, no Awards were granted to directors or employees. There are 860,000 Common Shares issuable pursuant to existing Awards as of the date hereof. There are 609,674 Common Sharesavailable for grant as Awards under the Incentive Plan as of the date hereof.

Board Mandate

The Board has adopted the following mandate and terms of reference for directors: The Business Corporations Act, S.B.C. 2002, c.57, MFC's governing statute, provides that directors must "manage or supervise the management of the business and affairs of MFC". In practice, as the Board cannot "manage" a corporation such as MFC in the sense of directing its day-to-day operations, the overarching role and legal duty of the Board is to "supervise" the management of MFC's business and affairs. Accordingly, the Board oversees development of the overall strategic direction and policy framework for MFC. This responsibility is discharged through Board oversight of MFC's management, which is responsible for the day-to-day conduct of the business. The Board's primary responsibilities are to supervise the management of MFC, to establish an appropriate corporate governance system, and to set a tone of high professional and ethical standards. The Board is also responsible for: selecting and assessing members of the Board;   choosing, assessing and compensating the Chief Executive Officer of MFC, approving the compensation of all executive officers and ensuring that an orderly management succession plan exists;   reviewing and approving MFC's strategic plan, operating plan, capital budget and financial goals, and reviewing its performance against those plans;   adopting a code of conduct and a disclosure policy for MFC, and monitoring performance against those policies;   ensuring the integrity of MFC's internal control and management information systems;   approving MFC's financial statements and related public disclosures prior to such disclosure;   approving any major changes to MFC's capital structure, including significant investments or financing arrangements; and   reviewing and approving any other issues which, in the view of the Board or management, may require Board scrutiny. Directors are expected to attend Board meetings and meetings of the committees on which they serve and to spend the time needed and meet as frequently as necessary to properly discharge their duties and responsibilities. It shall be the policy of the Board that a majority of the members of the Board, and all of the members of the Audit Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee, shall meet the independence requirements of applicable law and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the independence requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the applicable Canadian securities commissions and the New York Stock Exchange in effect from time to time (subject to any exceptions allowed by such rules and any waivers granted by such authorities).

SCHEDULE "A"
AUDIT COMMITTEE DISCLOSURE

THE AUDIT COMMITTEE'S CHARTER (THE "CHARTER")

1.	PURPOSE; LIMITATIONS ON DUTIES.
	The purpose of the Audit Committee (the "Audit Committee" or the "Committee") of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of MFC Industrial Ltd. (the "Company") is to (a) assist the Board in monitoring: (i) the integrity of the financial statements of the Company; (ii) the compliance by the Company with legal and regulatory requirements regarding financial disclosure; (iii) the independent auditor's qualifications and independence; and (iv) the performance of the Company's internal audit function and independent auditor; and (b) prepare the annual report of the Committee required by applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and applicable Canadian securities commissions ("CSC") disclosure rules.
	While the Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in this charter (the "Charter"), it is not the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Company's financial statements and disclosures are complete and accurate and are in accordance with the English language version of International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS") and applicable rules and regulations. These are the responsibilities of management and the independent auditor and nothing herein is to be construed as changing such responsibilities. Because the primary function of the Committee is oversight, absent knowledge to the contrary (the details of which shall be promptly reported to the Board), the Committee shall be entitled to rely on the expertise, skills and knowledge of management, the internal auditing department (if any) and the Company's independent auditors and the integrity and accuracy of information provided to the Committee by such persons.
	This Charter supersedes the Charter of the Audit Committee approved in July 2006 and any other prior Charters of the Audit Committee.
2.	COMPOSITION; FINANCIAL EXPERT.
	The Committee shall consist of at least three (3) directors of the Board. All members of the Committee must be directors who meet the knowledge and independence requirements of applicable law and the rules of the SEC, including the independence requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), the applicable CSC and the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") in effect from time to time (subject to any exceptions allowed by such rules and any waivers granted by such authorities).
	To the extent practicable, at least one member of the Committee shall qualify as an "audit committee financial expert," as defined in the SEC's rules and regulations in effect from time to time. The Company will disclose in the annual report required by Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") (which may incorporate proxy circular disclosure by reference, to the extent permitted by SEC rules) whether or not it has at least one member who is an audit committee financial expert. In any event (as required by the NYSE Listed Company Manual), the Committee must include at least one (1) member who the Board determines has accounting or related financial management expertise (which the Board may presume with respect to a person who qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert"). CSC and NYSE rules on the conduct of the Committee require that each member of the Committee be financially literate (as such qualification is interpreted by the Board in its business judgment), which generally means the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company's financial statements, or must become financially literate within a reasonable period of time after his or her appointment to the audit committee.

A-1

	A member of the Committee may not serve on the audit committees of more than two (2) other public companies unless the Board determines that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of such member to effectively serve on the Committee and such determination is disclosed either on or through the Company's website or in its annual proxy circular. If this disclosure is made on or through the Company's website, the Company must disclose that fact in its annual proxy circular and provide its website address. The members of the Committee shall be appointed by and serve at the discretion of the Board and shall serve until their successors are appointed. Committee members will be elected annually for a term of one (1) year. Vacancies will be filled by a majority vote of the Board, subject to such new committee member(s) satisfying the independence requirements established by laws and regulations in Canada and the United States. Except as expressly provided in this Charter or the Articles of the Company, the Committee shall fix its own rules of procedure. The Board may remove a member of the Committee at any time in its sole discretion by ordinary resolution of the Board.
3.	CHAIRMAN
	The Board, or in the event of its failure to do so, the majority of the members of the Committee, must appoint a chairman from the directors of the Committee (the "Chairman"). If the Chairman is not present at any meeting of the Committee, an acting Chairman for the meeting shall be chosen by majority vote of the Committee from among the members present. In the case of a deadlock on any matter or vote, the Chairman shall refer the matter to the Board. The Committee may appoint a secretary who need not be a director of the Board or Committee.
4.	REPORTS TO BOARD; MEETINGS, MINUTES.
	4.1	Recommendations; Reports.
		Regularly report to the Board on the Committee's activities, its conclusions with respect to the independent auditor and any issues that arise with respect to the quality or integrity of the Company's financial statements, compliance with legal or regulatory requirements, the performance and independence of the Company's independent auditor or the performance of the internal audit function, and make appropriate recommendations to the Board.
	4.2	Executive Sessions.
		If necessary and appropriate, the Committee shall meet (with such frequency as it determines) with each of the independent auditor, internal auditors (or other personnel responsible for the Company's internal audit function) and management in separate executive sessions to discuss any matters that the Committee or these groups believe should be discussed privately.
	4.3	Other Meetings.
		Other meetings will be held with such frequency, and at such times, as the Chairperson, or a majority of the Committee determines, but not less than four times annually. Special meetings of the Committee may be called by the Chairperson and will be called promptly upon the request of any two (2) Committee members.
	4.4	Meeting Procedure.
		Unless the Committee or the Board adopts other procedures, the provisions of the Company's Articles applicable to meetings of Board committees will govern meetings of the Committee.
	4.5	Minutes.
		Minutes of each meeting will be kept with the regular corporate records.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy

I.	Statement of Principles
	In accordance with the requirements of the SEC rules and securities regulations, including the independence requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and National Instrument 52-110 of the Canadian Securities Administrators, and to safeguard the continued independence of its independent auditor, all audit and non-audit services to be rendered by the Company's independent auditor and any related entities to the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") must be the subject of pre-approval by the Audit Committee of the Board in order to assure that they do not impair the auditor's independence from the Company. Furthermore, the Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor.
	As set forth in this Policy, unless a type of service has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee if it is to be provided by the independent auditor. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.
	The appendices to this Policy describe the Audit, Audit-related, Tax and All Other services that have the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The term of any general pre-approval is twelve (12) months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee considers a different period and states otherwise. The Audit Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the independent auditor without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will revise the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations.
	The purpose of this Policy is to set forth the procedures by which the Audit Committee intends to fulfill its responsibilities. It does not delegate the Audit Committee's responsibilities to pre-approved services performed by the independent auditor to management.
	The independent auditor has reviewed this Policy and believes that implementation of the policy will not adversely affect the auditor's independence.
II.	Delegation
	The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
III.	Audit Services
	The annual Audit services engagement terms and fees will be subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, Company structure or other items.

Exhibit A-1

A-9

	In addition to the annual Audit services engagement approved by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval of other Audit services, which are those services that only the independent auditor reasonably can provide. The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Audit services in Exhibit B. The general pre-approval of the range of services set forth on Exhibit B will be brought to the Audit Committee on an annual basis for review, any modification thought appropriate and approval. In connection with such review, the Audit Committee will be provided a written description of the nature and scope, including the fee structure and terms of any oral or written side agreement(s), for all tax services to be considered for general pre-approval under Exhibit B. The potential effects of these tax services on the independence of the auditor will be discussed with them.
	In the case of proposed engagements of the auditor involving any of the services covered under the range of pre-approved services under Exhibit B where the fees for a particular engagement are expected to exceed a total of CDN$200,000, specific pre-approval must be obtained under the provisions of Section VI below.
	All other Audit services not listed in Exhibit B must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee under the provisions of Section VII below.
IV.	Audit-related Services
	Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company's financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee believes that the provision of Audit-related services does not impair the independence of the auditor, and has pre-approved Audit-related services in Exhibit B. All other Audit-related services not listed in Exhibit B must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.
V.	Tax Services
	The Audit Committee believes that the independent auditor can provide Tax services to the Company such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor's independence. However, the Audit Committee will not permit the retention of the independent auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the independent auditor, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Tax services in Exhibit B. All Tax services involving large and complex transactions not listed in Exhibit B must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.
VI.	All Other Services
	All other permissible services not listed in Exhibit B must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee. Where particular pre-approval is required, the Audit Committee has delegated the authority to effect such pre-approval to the Chairman of the Audit Committee.
	Under no circumstances may the Audit Committee delegate its responsibilities to the Company's management.
	For greater certainty, if an engagement with the independent auditor for a particular service is contemplated that is neither prohibited nor covered under the range of services under Exhibit B, in order for such an engagement to proceed it must be the subject of individual pre-approval under Section VII.
	It is the responsibility of the Company's management to determine whether a particular service is covered by the pre-approved range of services set forth on Exhibit B. Management should seek the guidance of the Chairman of the Audit Committee where there is any ambiguity about whether a particular service is pre-approved.

Exhibit A-2

A-10

	A list of the SEC's prohibited non-audit services is included in Exhibit B. The SEC's rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of these services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the prohibitions.
VII.	Procedures
	Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the independent auditor and the Chief Financial Officer. If the individual service is a tax service, a written description of the nature and scope, including fee structure and terms of any oral or written side agreement, is to be provided. The potential effect of the tax service on the independence of the auditor is to be discussed with the auditor.
	All requests or applications for services to be provided by the independent auditor that do not require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Chief Financial Officer and must include a detailed description of the services to be rendered. The Chief Financial Officer will determine whether such services are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will be informed on a timely basis of any such services rendered by the independent auditor.
VIII.	Engagement Letters
Pre-approved non-audit services will be provided by the auditor pursuant to an engagement letter with the appropriate entity of the Company that satisfies each of the following requirements:
	a.	the engagement letter will be in writing and signed by the auditor; and
	b.	the engagement letter will set out the particular non-audit services to be provided by the auditor which, unless individually pre-approved, will be within the categories of pre-approved non-audit services described in Exhibit B.
IX.	Reports of Services to the Audit Committee
At every regularly scheduled meeting of the Audit Committee, the Company's management will report on all new pre-approved engagements of the auditor since the last such report. The auditor may comment on the report if it wishes to do so. All engagement letters entered into going forward will be made available to the Audit Committee on request.

4.6Delegation. The Committee may delegate ministerial, non-discretionary functions to individuals who are Officers or Employees of the Company or any of its Affiliates or to third parties.

ARTICLE 5
SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

5.1Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment provided in Section 5.3, the total number of Shares subject to all Awards under the Plan shall be two million (2,000,000) plus the number of Shares remaining available for grant pursuant to the Prior Plans as of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the above, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued as Incentive Stock Options under the Plan shall be two million (2,000,000). The Shares to be delivered under the Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized but unissued Shares or Shares purchased on the open market or treasury Shares not reserved for any other purpose.

5.2Availability of Shares for Grant. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, if any Award granted under the Plan terminates, expires, lapses for any reason, or is paid in cash, any Shares subject to or surrendered for such Award will again be Shares available for the grant of an Award. The exercise of a stock-settled SAR or broker-assisted "cashless" exercise of an Option (or a portion thereof) will reduce the number of Shares available for issuance pursuant to Section 5.1 by the entire number of Shares subject to that SAR or Option (or applicable portion thereof), even though a smaller number of Shares will be issued upon such an exercise. Also, Shares tendered to pay the exercise price of an Option or tendered or withheld to satisfy a tax withholding obligation arising in connection with an Award will not become available for grant or sale under the Plan.

5.3Adjustment in Capitalization. In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares by reason of a stock dividend (other than in the ordinary course) or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination, reorganization, exchange of shares, or other similar corporate change, the aggregate number of Shares available under the Plan and subject to each outstanding Award, and the stated exercise prices and the basis upon which the Awards are measured, shall be adjusted appropriately by the Committee, whose determination shall be conclusive; provided, however, that fractional Shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole Share. Moreover, in the event of such transaction or event, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding Awards under the Plan such alternative consideration (including cash) as it, in good faith, may determine to be equitable under the circumstances and may require in connection therewith the surrender of all Awards so replaced. Any adjustment to an Incentive Stock Option shall be made consistent with the requirements of Section 424 of the Code. Further, with respect to any Option or Stock Appreciation Right that otherwise satisfies the requirements of the stock rights exception to Section 409A of the Code, any adjustment pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall be made consistent with the requirements of the final regulations promulgated pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.

C-7

	(i)	the maximum number of Shares subject to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that may be granted to any one Participant, who is a Covered Employee, during any of the Company's fiscal years shall be three hundred and fifty thousand (350,000); and
	(ii)	the maximum number of Shares that may be granted to any one Participant, who is a Covered Employee, during any of the Company's fiscal years with respect to one or more Awards shall be three hundred and fifty thousand (350,000) except that grants to a Participant in the fiscal year in which his or her service first commences shall not relate to more than four hundred thousand (400,000) Shares.
(b)	Additional Limitations for non-employee Directors.
	(i)	the aggregate fair value of Awards granted under all security-based compensation arrangements of the Company to any one (1) non-employee Director entitled to receive a benefit under the Plan, within any one (1) year period, cannot exceed $100,000, valued on a Black-Scholes basis and as determined by the Committee; and
	(ii)	the aggregate number of securities issuable to all non-employee Directors entitled to receive a benefit under the Plan, under all security-based compensation arrangements of the Company, cannot exceed one percent (1%) of the Company's issued and outstanding Shares.

5.5Reservation of Shares; No Fractional Shares; Minimum Issue. The Company shall at all times reserve a number of Shares sufficient to cover the Company's obligations and contingent obligations to deliver Shares with respect to Awards then outstanding under the Plan (exclusive of any dividend equivalent obligations to the extent the Company has the right to settle such rights in cash). No fractional Shares shall be delivered under the Plan. The Committee may pay cash in lieu of any fractional Shares in settlements of Awards under the Plan. The Committee may from time to time impose a limit (of not greater than 100 Shares) on the minimum number of Shares that may be purchased or exercised as to Awards granted under the Plan unless (as to any particular Award) the total number purchased or exercised is the total number at the time available for purchase or exercise under the Award.

ARTICLE 6
STOCK OPTIONS

6.1Grant of Options. Subject to the provisions of Article 5 and this Article 6, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Options to such Participants and in such amounts as it shall determine.

(a)	Exercise Price. No Option shall be granted at an exercise price that is less than the Fair Market Value of one Share on the Grant Date.
(b)	Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part provided that the term of any Option granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten (10) years. The Committee shall also determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised.
(c)	Payment. The Committee shall determine the methods by which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, the form of payment, including, without limitation, cash, promissory note, Shares held for longer than six (6) months (through actual tender or by attestation), any net-issuance arrangement or other property acceptable to the Committee (including broker-assisted "cashless exercise" arrangements), and the methods by which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants.
(d)	Evidence of Grant. All Options shall be evidenced by a written Award Agreement. The Award Agreement shall reflect the Committee's determinations regarding the exercise price, time and conditions of exercise, forms of payment for the Option and such additional provisions as may be specified by the Committee.
(e)	No Repricing of Options. The Committee shall not reprice any Options previously granted under the Plan.

C-8

6.2Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Participants who are Employees and the terms of any Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan must comply with the following additional provisions of this Section 6.2:

(a)	Exercise Price. Subject to Section 6.2(e), the exercise price per Share shall be set by the Committee, provided that the exercise price for any Incentive Stock Option may not be less than the Fair Market Value as of the date of the grant.
(b)	Exercise. In no event may any Incentive Stock Option be exercisable for more than ten (10) years from the date of its grant.
(c)	Lapse of Option. An Incentive Stock Option shall lapse in the following circumstances:
	(i)	The Incentive Stock Option shall lapse ten (10) years from the date it is granted, unless an earlier time is set in the Award Agreement.
	(ii)	The Incentive Stock Option shall lapse ninety (90) days following the effective date of the Participant's Termination of Employment for any reason other than the Participant's death or Disability, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement.
	(iii)	If the Participant has a Termination of Employment on account of Disability or death before the Option lapses pursuant to paragraph (i) or (ii) above, the Incentive Stock Option shall lapse, unless it is previously exercised, on the earlier of (a) the scheduled expiration date of the Option; or (b) six (6) months after the date of the Participant's Termination of Employment on account of Disability or death. Upon the Participant's Disability or death, any Incentive Stock Options exercisable at the Participant's Disability or death may be exercised by the Participant's legal representative or representatives, by the person or persons entitled to do so pursuant to the Participant's last will and testament, or, if the Participant fails to make testamentary disposition of such Incentive Stock Option or dies intestate, by the person or persons entitled to receive the Incentive Stock Option pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

(d)	Individual Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time an Award is made) of all Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed US$100,000 or such other limitation as imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code, or any successor provision. To the extent that Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered Non-Qualified Stock Options. In reducing the number of options treated as Incentive Stock Options to meet the US$100,000 limit, the most recently granted Options shall be reduced first. To the extent a reduction of simultaneously granted Options is necessary to meet the US$100,000 limit, the Committee may, in the manner and to the extent permitted by law, designate which Shares are to be treated as Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option.
(e)	Ten Percent Owners. An Incentive Stock Option shall not be granted to any individual who, at the Grant Date, owns (or is deemed to own under Section 424(d) of the Code) outstanding Shares possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company unless such Option is granted at a price that is not less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the Grant Date and the Option is exercisable for no more than five (5) years from the Grant Date.
(f)	Right to Exercise. Except as provided in Section 6.2(c)(iii), during a Participant's lifetime, an Incentive Stock Option may be exercised only by the Participant.

PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS

10.1Grant of Performance-Based Awards. Options granted to any Covered Employees pursuant to Article 6 and SARs granted to Covered Employees pursuant to Article 9 should, by their terms, qualify for the "performance-based compensation" exception to the deduction limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee, in the exercise of its complete discretion, also may choose to qualify some or all of the Restricted Stock Rights or Restricted Stock Awards granted to Covered Employees pursuant to Article 7 and/or some or all of the Performance Shares or Performance Share Units granted to Covered Employees pursuant to Article 8 for the "performance-based compensation" exception to the deduction limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code.

If the Committee concludes that a particular Award to a Covered Employee should not be qualified as "performance-based compensation," the Committee may grant the Award without satisfying the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the provisions of this Article 10 shall not apply.

10.2Applicability. This Article 10 shall apply only to Awards to those Covered Employees (if any) selected by the Committee to receive Performance-Based Awards and only if, and to the extent that, the Company is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code. The designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for any Performance Period shall not in any manner entitle the Participant to receive a Performance-Based Award for such Performance Period. Moreover, designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a particular Performance Period shall not require designation of such Covered Employee as a Participant for any subsequent Performance Period.

10.3Committee Discretion with Respect to Performance-Based Awards. With regard to a particular Performance Period, the Committee shall have full discretion to select the length of the Performance Period, the type of Performance-Based Awards to be issued, the kind and/or level of the Performance Goal or Goals and whether the Performance Goal or Goals apply to the Company, an Affiliate, or any division or business unit thereof or the Participant or any group of Participants.

For purposes of this Article 10, the applicable Performance Period may not be less than three (3) months or more than ten (10) years.

       The inclusion or exclusion of the foregoing items shall be expressed in a form that satisfies the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee, in its discretion, also may, within the time prescribed by Section 162(m) of the Code, adjust or modify the calculation of Performance Goals for such Performance Period in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants: (i) in the event of, or in anticipation of, any unusual or extraordinary corporate item, transaction, event, or development; or (ii) in recognition of, or in anticipation of, any other unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or in response to, or in anticipation of, changes in applicable laws, regulations, accounting principles, or business conditions.

ARTICLE 13
FORFEITURE

13.1Forfeiture Events. The Committee will specify in an Award Agreement at the time of the Award that the Participant's rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award.

Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan, any Award which is subject to recovery under any law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement, will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement).

13.3Termination Events. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee and set forth in an Award Agreement, if a Participant's employment with the Company or any Affiliate shall be terminated for Cause, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, immediately terminate such Participant's right to any further payments, vesting or exercisability with respect to any Award in its entirety. The Committee shall have the power to determine whether the Participant has been terminated for Cause and the date upon which such termination for Cause occurs. Any such determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Participant. In addition, if the Company shall reasonably determine that a Participant has committed or may have committed any act which could constitute the basis for a termination of such Participant's employment for Cause, the Committee may suspend the Participant's rights to exercise any option, receive any payment or vest in any right with respect to any Award pending a determination by the Committee of whether an act has been committed which could constitute the basis for the Termination of Employment for "Cause" as provided in this Section 13.3.

ARTICLE 14
SUBSTITUTION OF AWARDS

14.1Substitution of Awards. Any Award may be granted under this Plan in substitution for Awards held by any individual who is an employee of another corporation who is about to become an Employee as the result of a merger, consolidation or reorganization of the corporation with the Company, or the acquisition by the Company of the assets of the corporation, or the acquisition by the Company of stock of the corporation as the result of which such corporation becomes an Affiliate or a subsidiary of the Company. The terms and conditions of the Awards so granted may vary from the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan to such extent as the Committee at the time of granting the Award may deem appropriate to conform, in whole or in part, to the provisions of the Award in substitution for which they are granted. However, in the event that the Award for which a substitute Award is being granted is an Incentive Stock Option, no variation shall adversely affect the status of any substitute Award as an Incentive Stock Option under the Code. In addition, in the event that the award for which a substitute Award is being granted is a Non-Qualified Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right that otherwise satisfies the requirements of the "stock rights exception" to Section 409A of the Code, no variation shall adversely affect the status of any substitute Award under the stock rights exception to Section 409A of the Code.

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION

The Board may at any time, and from time to time, terminate, amend or modify the Plan, in whole or in part; provided however, that any such action of the Board shall be subject to approval of the shareholders to the extent required by law, regulation, any stock exchange rule for any exchange on which Shares are listed or Section 15.2 hereof. Notwithstanding the above, to the extent permitted by law, the Board may delegate to the Committee the authority to approve non-substantive amendments to the Plan. No amendment, modification, or termination of the Plan or any Award under the Plan shall in any manner materially adversely affect any Award theretofore granted under the Plan without the consent of the holder thereof (unless such change is required in order to cause the benefits under the Plan to qualify as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and applicable interpretive authority thereunder).

15.2Shareholder Approval Requirements. Except as provided in Section 5.3, neither the Board nor the Committee may, without the approval of the shareholders,

(a)	reduce the purchase price or exercise price of any outstanding Award, including any Option or SAR (or the cancellation and re-grant of an Award resulting in a lower exercise price or purchase price);
(b)	extend the expiry date of any outstanding Option or SAR except as permitted under Section 6.1(b) and Section 9.2, as applicable;
(c)	amend the Plan to remove or to exceed the participation limits described in Section 5.4, including but not limited to those applicable to non-Employee Directors;
(d)	increase the number of Shares available under the Plan (other than any adjustment as provided in Section 5.3);
(e)	grant Options with an exercise price that is below Fair Market Value on the Grant Date;
(f)	cancel any Option or SAR in exchange for cash or any other Award or in exchange for any Option or SAR with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Option or SAR; or
(g)	amend this Article 15 other than amendments of a clerical nature.

ARTICLE 16
TAX WITHHOLDING

16.2Form of Payment. To the extent permissible under applicable tax, securities, and other laws, the Company may, in its sole discretion, permit the Participant to satisfy a tax withholding requirement by (a) using already owned Shares that have been held by the Participant for at least six (6) months; (b) a broker-assisted "cashless" transaction; (c) directing the Company to apply Shares to which the Participant is entitled pursuant to the Award to satisfy the required minimum statutory withholding amount; or (d) a personal check or other cash equivalent acceptable to the Company.

The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such person may be entitled under the Company's articles of incorporation, bylaws, resolution or agreement, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify him or hold him harmless.

ARTICLE 18
GENERAL PROVISIONS

18.1No Right to Continued Employment/No Additional Rights/Participants. Nothing in the Plan, in the grant of any Award or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Participant any right to continue employment or a contractual relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate the Participant's employment or other service relationship for any reason at any time. The grant of an Award under the Plan shall not confer any rights upon the Participant holding such Award other than such terms, and subject to such conditions, as are specified in the Plan as being applicable to such type of Award (or to all Awards) or as are expressly set forth in the Award Agreement.

18.2No Rights to Awards. No Participant, Employee, 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 Participants, Employees, and other persons uniformly.

18.3Funding. The Company shall not be required to segregate any of its assets to ensure the payment of any Award under the Plan. Neither the Participant nor any other persons shall have any interest in any fund or in any specific asset or assets of the Company or any other entity by reason of any Award, except to the extent expressly provided hereunder. The interests of each Participant and former Participant hereunder are unsecured and shall be subject to the general creditors of the Company. The Plan is not intended to be subject to the Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974, as amended.

18.4Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including without limitation Canadian securities laws and United States federal and state securities laws, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. The Committee may impose such restrictions and/or conditions on any Shares as it may deem advisable, including without limitation restrictions under the Securities Act, under the requirements of any exchange upon which such Shares are then listed, under any blue sky or other securities laws applicable to such Shares. The Company shall be under no obligation to register pursuant to the Securities Act or applicable Canadian securities laws any of the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan. If the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Act or applicable Canadian securities laws, the Company may restrict the transfer of such Shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption. With respect to any Participant who is, on the relevant date, obligated to file reports pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, transactions pursuant to this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors pursuant to the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee may impose such conditions on the exercise of any Award as may be required to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or its successors pursuant to the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to so comply, it shall be void to the extent permitted by law and voidable as deemed advisable by the Committee.

C-17

18.7Adoption of Other Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not preclude the Company from establishing any other forms of share incentive or other compensation or benefit program for Employees, Officers, non-Employee Directors and Consultants of the Company or any Affiliate.

18.8No Corporate Action Restriction. The existence of the Plan, the Award Agreements and the Awards granted hereunder shall not limit, affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Board or the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize: (a) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the capital structure or business of the Company or any Affiliate, (b) any merger, amalgamation, consolidation or change in the ownership of the Company or any Affiliate, (c) any issue of bonds, debentures, capital, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the capital stock (or the rights thereof) of the Company or any Affiliate, (d) any dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (e) any sale or transfer of all or any part of the assets or business of the Company or any Affiliate, or (f) any other corporate act or proceeding by the Company or any Affiliate. No Participant, beneficiary or any other person shall have any claim under any Award or Award Agreement against any member of the Board or the Committee, or the Company or any Employees, Officers or agents of the Company or any Affiliate, as a result of any such action.

18.9Titles and Headings. The titles and headings of the Articles 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.

18.10Successors and Assigns. The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Company, including without limitation, whether by way of merger, consolidation, operation of law, assignment, purchase, or other acquisition of substantially all of the assets or business of the Company, and any and all such successors and assigns shall absolutely and unconditionally assume all of the Company's obligations under the Plan.

18.11Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.

18.12Survival of Provisions. The rights, remedies, agreements, obligations and covenants contained in or made pursuant to this Plan, any agreement and any notices or agreements made in connection with this Plan shall survive the execution and delivery of such notices and agreements and the delivery and receipt of such Shares if required by Section 12.3, shall remain in full force and effect.
