Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in the event of any such termination, there shall be no further liability on the part of the Agent to the Corporation or on the part of the Corporation to the Agent except in respect of any liability which may have arisen prior to or which may arise after such termination under Section 13, Section 15 and Section 16.

 -41 -

derivative or otherwise), actions, damages and liabilities, joint or several, including without limitation the aggregate amount paid in reasonable settlement of any actions, suits, proceedings, investigations or claims and the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel (collectively, the “Losses”) that may be suffered by, imposed upon or asserted against an Indemnified Party as a result of, in respect of, connected with or arising out of any action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim that may be made or threatened by any person or in enforcing this indemnity (collectively the “Claims”) insofar as the Claims relate to, are caused by, result from, arise out of or are based upon, directly or indirectly, from or in consequence of the performance of professional services rendered to the Corporation by the Indemnified Parties hereunder or otherwise in connection with the Offering, whether performed before or after the date hereof, or otherwise in connection with the matters referred to in this Agreement, including, without limitation:

(i) any breach of or default under any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Corporation in this Agreement or the failure of the Corporation to comply with any of its obligations hereunder;

(ii) any information or statement (except any information or statement relating solely to an Indemnified Party and provided in writing by the Indemnified Party for inclusion in such document) contained in any of the Offering Documents or any other document or material filed or delivered by or on behalf of the Corporation pursuant to this Agreement being or being alleged to be a misrepresentation or untrue or any omission or alleged omission to state in those documents any material fact required to be stated in those documents or necessary to make any of the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made;

(iii) any order made or any inquiry, investigation or proceeding instituted, threatened or announced by any court, securities regulatory authority, stock exchange or by any other competent authority, based upon any untrue statement, omission or misrepresentation or alleged untrue statement, omission or misrepresentation (except a statement, omission or misrepresentation relating solely to an Indemnified Party provided in writing by the Indemnified Party) contained in any of the Offering Documents or any other document or material filed or delivered by or on behalf of the Corporation pursuant to this Agreement, preventing or restricting the trading in or the sale or distribution of the Common Shares;

(iv) the Corporation not complying with any requirement of the Canadian Securities Laws or U.S. Securities Laws, including the Corporation’s non-compliance with any statutory requirement to make any document available for inspection; or

(v) any failure or alleged failure to make timely disclosure of a material change by the Corporation, where such failure or alleged failure occurs during the Offering or during the period of distribution or where such failure relates to the Offering or the Units and may give or gives rise to any liability under any Law in any jurisdiction which is in force on the date of this Agreement.

(b) The Corporation agrees to waive any right the Corporation may have of first requiring an Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any other right, power, remedy or security or claim payment from any other person before claiming under this indemnity.

 -42 -

(c) Promptly after receiving notice of a Claim against any Indemnified Party or receipt of notice of the commencement of any investigation which is based, directly or indirectly, upon any matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought from the Corporation, any such Indemnified Party will notify the Corporation in writing of the particulars thereof, provided that the omission so to notify the Corporation shall not relieve the Corporation of any liability which the Corporation may have to any Indemnified Party except and only to the extent that any such delay in or failure to give notice as required prejudices the defense of such Claim or results in any material increase in the liability which the Corporation has under this indemnity. The Corporation shall have 14 days after receipt of the notice to undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense, the settlement or defense of the Claim. If the Corporation undertakes, conducts or controls the settlement or defense of the Claim, the relevant Indemnified Parties shall have the right to participate in the settlement or defense of the Claim.

(d) The Corporation will not, without the prior written consent of the Agent, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any Claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought under this indemnity (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party to such Claim) unless the Corporation has acknowledged in writing that the Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified in respect of such Claim and such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from any liabilities arising out of such Claim without any admission of negligence, misconduct, liability or responsibility by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

(e) The Corporation hereby constitutes the Agent as trustee for each of the other Indemnified Parties which are not a party to this Agreement of the Corporation’s covenants under this indemnity with respect to those persons and the Agent agrees to accept that trust and to hold and enforce those covenants on behalf of those persons.

(f) The Corporation also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Corporation or any person asserting Claims on behalf of or in right of the Corporation for or in connection with this Agreement (whether performed before or after the Corporation’s execution of this Agreement), except to the extent that any losses, expenses, claims, actions, damages or liabilities incurred by the Corporation are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgement (in a proceeding in which an Indemnified Party is named as a party) that has become non- appealable to have been caused solely by the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.

(g) The Corporation also agrees to reimburse the Indemnified Party for the time spent by their personnel in connection with any Claim at their normal per diem rates. The Indemnified Parties may retain counsel to separately represent them in the defense of a Claim, which shall be at the Corporation’s expense if (i) the Corporation does not promptly assume the defense of the Claim no later than 14 days after receiving actual notice of the Claim (as set forth above), (ii) the Corporation agrees to separate representation, or (iii) the Indemnified Parties are advised by external legal counsel that there is an actual or potential conflict in the Corporation’s and the Indemnified Party’s respective interests or additional defenses are available to the Indemnified Parties, which makes representation by the same counsel inappropriate.

 -43 -

(h) The Corporation also agrees that if any action, suit, proceeding or claim shall be brought against, or any investigation commenced in respect of the Corporation, and the Agent or any personnel of the Agent shall be required to testify, participate or respond in respect of or in connection with the Offering, the Agent shall have the right to employ its own counsel in connection therewith and the Corporation will reimburse the Agent monthly for the time spent by its personnel in connection therewith at their normal per diem rates together with such disbursements and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as may be incurred, including fees and disbursements of the Agent’s counsel.

(i) The obligations of the Corporation hereunder are in addition to any liabilities which the Corporation may otherwise have to any Indemnified Party. The foregoing provisions shall survive the completion of professional services rendered under this Agreement or any termination of the authorization given by this Agreement.

Section 15. Contribution

In order to provide for a just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity provided in Section 14 (other than in accordance with the terms hereof) would otherwise be available in accordance with its terms but is unavailable to the Agent or the Indemnified Parties or insufficient to hold them harmless in respect of a Claim for any reason, the Corporation shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Agent or the other Indemnified Party as a result of such Claim in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Corporation on the one hand and the Agent or any other Indemnified Party on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Corporation, the Agent or any other Indemnified Party as well as any relevant equitable considerations; provided that the Corporation shall in any event contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Agent or any other Indemnified Party as a result of such Claim any excess of such amount over the amount of the fees received by the Agent under this Agreement.

Section 16. Advertisements

The Corporation shall, at the Agent’s request, issue a press release announcing the Offering, include a reference to the Agent and its role in any such release or communication, and ensure that any press release concerning the Offering complies with applicable law, including U.S. Securities Law restrictions in respect of general solicitation, general advertising and directed selling efforts.

Section 17. Expenses

The Corporation will be responsible for all expenses related to the Offering, whether or not the Offering is completed, including, but not limited to, the fees and disbursements of the Corporation’s legal counsel, the fees and disbursements of the Agent’s legal counsel (not exceeding $175,000 in respect of Canadian counsel and $10,000 in respect of U.S. counsel, in each case exclusive of taxes and disbursements), the fees and disbursements of accountants and auditors, the fees and disbursements of translators, the reasonable fees and disbursements of technical consultants and other applicable experts, all costs and expenses related to road-shows and marketing activities, printing costs, filing fees, distribution fees, stock exchange fees, fees for other regulatory compliance, other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent and all taxes payable in respect of any of the foregoing. All such fees, disbursements and expenses shall be payable by the

 -44 -

Corporation immediately upon receiving an invoice therefor from the Agent, or, at the option of the Agent, may be deducted from the gross proceeds of the Offering otherwise payable by the Agent to the Corporation at the Closing of the Offering.

Section 18. Governing Law

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. The parties irrevocably attorn to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Alberta, which will have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any matter arising out of this Agreement.

Section 19. Conflict of Interest

The Corporation acknowledges that the Agent and its affiliates carry on a range of businesses, which include: (i) acting as a trader of, and dealer in, securities both as principal and on behalf of their clients, (ii) conducting research on securities and, in the ordinary course of business, providing research reports and investment advice to their clients on investment matters, including with respect to any such person and/or offering, and (iii) in the ordinary course of business, extending loans or providing other financial services to any such person. It is possible that the Agent, its affiliates and other entities in their respective groups that carry on those businesses may hold long or short positions in securities of companies or other entities, which are or may be involved in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and effect transactions in those securities for their own account and for the account of their respective clients. The Corporation agrees that these divisions and entities may hold such positions and effect such transactions without regard to the Corporation’s interests under this Agreement.

Section 20. Survival of Warranties, Representations, Covenants and Agreements

Except as expressly set out herein, all warranties, representations, covenants and agreements of the Corporation and the Agent herein contained or contained in documents submitted or required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the closing of the Offering and shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Agent, the Purchasers or the Corporation, as the case may be, regardless of the Closing of the sale of the Units, any subsequent disposition of the Offered Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares by the Purchasers or the termination of the Agent’s obligations under this Agreement, for a period ending on the date that is two years following the Closing Date and shall not be limited or prejudiced by any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent or the distribution of the Offered Securities or otherwise, and the Corporation agrees that the Agent shall not be presumed to know of the existence of a claim against the Corporation under this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the offer and sale of the Units as a result of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent in accordance with the distribution of the Units or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions contained in this Agreement in any way related to indemnification or contribution obligations shall survive and continue in full force and effect, indefinitely.
