the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a “ Warrant Share”) at a

Tax Act (Canada)) (the “Qualifying Expenditures”), which will be renounced with an effective date no

additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of the Company’s failure to renounce the
Qualifying Expenditures.

Shares, Warrant Shares and any common shares of the Company that are issuable from any finder’s
