at 22 Haddington Street, Cambridge, Ontario of this Agent's Warrant
certificate, together with a completed subscription in the form attached
as Schedule "A" hereto (the "Agent's Warrant Subscription Form"), but
without additional payment of any kind, prior to the close of business
on any business day, or at such other address as the Issuer may
designate by notice in writing to the Holder. The Agent's Compensation
Options subscribed for shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the
owner of record of such securities as of the close of business on the
date on which this Agent's Warrant certificate shall have been so
surrendered. The Agent's Warrants shall be deemed to be surrendered
only upon personal delivery thereof or, if sent by mail or other means

product obtained by multiplying such fractional share interest by the
Current Market Price at the date of delivery of this certificate and the
duly completed Agent's Warrant Subscription Form, which payment shall be
made within ten business days of such delivery. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Issuer shall not be required to make any payment,
calculated as aforesaid, that is less than $5.00.
2. Adjustments
2.1
(a) The rights of the Holder, including the number of Units for which
the Holder may subscribe upon exercise of the Agent's Compensation
Options, will be adjusted from time to time in the events and in the
manner provided in, and in accordance with the provisions of, this
Section.
(b) The Exchange Number in effect at any date will be subject to
adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) Share Reorganization: If and whenever at any time during the
Exercise Period, the Issuer shall (A) subdivide or redivide the
outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares, (B)
consolidate or combine or reduces the outstanding Common Shares into a
lesser number of Common Shares, or (C) fix a record date for the issue
of Common Shares or Convertible Securities to all or substantially all
of the holders of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or other
distribution other than a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, then, in
each such event, the Exchange Number will, on the record date for such
event or, if no record date is fixed, the effective date of such event,
be adjusted so that it will equal the rate determined by multiplying the
Exchange Number in effect immediately prior to such date by a fraction,
of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares
outstanding on such date before giving effect to such event, and of
which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares
outstanding on such date after giving effect to such event. Such
adjustment will be made successively whenever any such event shall
occur. Any such issue of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend shall
be deemed to have been made on the record date for such stock dividend
for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares
under Section 2.1(b)(i) and (ii) hereof. Upon any adjustment of the
Exchange Number pursuant to this paragraph 2.1(b)(i), the number of Unit
Shares subject to the right of purchase under each Unit and the number
of Warrant Shares subject to the right of purchase under each Unit
Warrant not previously exercised will be contemporaneously adjusted by
multiplying the number of Unit Shares or Warrant Shares, respectively,
which theretofore may have been purchased under such Unit or Purchase
Warrant by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exchange
Number in effect immediately before such adjustment and the denominator
shall be the Exchange Number resulting from such adjustment. For the
purposes of determining the number of Common Shares outstanding at any
particular time for the purpose of this section 2.1(b)(i) there will be
included that number of Common Shares which would have resulted from the
conversion at that time of all outstanding Convertible Securities which
for greater certainty, includes the unexercised Special Warrants and
Unit Agent's Warrants.
(ii) Rights Offering: If and whenever at any time during the Exercise
Period, the Issuer shall fix a record date for the issue of rights,
options or warrants to all or substantially all of the holders of Common
Shares entitling the holders thereof, within a period expiring not more
than 45 days after the record date for such issue, to subscribe for or
purchase Common Shares (or Convertible Securities) at a price per share
(or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of
the Current Market Price on such record date, then the Exchange Number
will be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it will
equal the rate determined by multiplying the Exchange Number in effect
on such record date by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the
total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the
number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the
aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares so
offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion or
exchange price of the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered)
by such Current Market Price, and of which the numerator shall be the
total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the
total number of additional Common Shares so offered for subscription or
purchase (or into or for which the convertible or exchangeable
securities so offered are convertible or exchangeable). Any Common
Shares owned by or held for the account of the Issuer or any subsidiary
of the Issuer shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of
any such computation. Such adjustment will be made successively
whenever such a record date is fixed, provided that if two or more such
record dates or record dates referred to in this Section 2.1(b)(ii) are
fixed within a period of 25 trading days, such adjustment will be made
successively as if each of such record dates occurred on the earliest of
such record dates. To the extent that any such rights, options or
warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Exchange
Number will then be readjusted to the Exchange Number which would then
be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually issued upon
the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be.
(iii) Special Distribution: If and whenever at any time during the
Exercise Period, the Issuer shall fix a record date for the making of a
distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares
of (A) shares of any class other than shares distributed to holders of
Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of options to receive dividends
in the form of such shares in lieu of Dividends Paid in the Ordinary
Course on the Common Shares, (B) rights, options or warrants (other than
Unit Agent's Warrants and other than rights, options or warrants
exercisable within 45 days from the date of issue thereof at a price per
share, or at an exchange or conversion price per share in the case of
securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, of at
least 95% of the Current Market Price at the record date for such
distribution), (C) evidences of indebtedness, or (D) any other assets
including shares of other corporations (excluding cash dividends that
holders of the Special Warrants receive under the provisions of the
Special Warrant Indenture) in each such case and if such distribution
does not constitute a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, or fall
under Sections 2.1(b)(i) or (ii) above, the Exchange Number will be
adjusted immediately after such record date so that it will equal the
rate determined by multiplying the Exchange Number in effect on such
record date by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the total
number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by
the Current Market Price on the earlier of such record date and the date
on which the Issuer announces its intention to make such distribution,
less the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the directors,
acting reasonably, at the time such distribution is authorized) of such
shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or
cash, securities or other property or assets so distributed, and of
which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares
outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Current Market Price.
Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Issuer or any
subsidiary of the Issuer shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the
purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment will be made
successively whenever such a record date is fixed, provided that if two
or more such record dates or record dates referred to in this Section
2.1(b)(iii) are fixed within a period of 25 trading days, such
adjustment will be made successively as if each of such record dates
occurred on the earliest of such record dates. To the extent that any
such rights, options or warrants so distributed are not exercised prior
to the expiration thereof, the Exchange Number will then be readjusted
to the Exchange Number which would then be in effect based upon such
rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or cash,
securities or other property or assets actually distributed or based
upon the number or amount of securities or the property or assets
actually issued or distributed upon the exercise of such rights, options
or warrants, as the case may be.
(c) Capital Reorganization: If and whenever at any time from the date
hereof during the Exercise Period there is a reorganization of the
Issuer not otherwise provided for in Section 2.1(b)(i) or a
consolidation or merger or amalgamation of the Issuer with or into
another body corporate or other entity including a transaction whereby
all or substantially all of the Issuer's undertaking and assets become
the property of any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other
entity (any such event being a "Capital Reorganization"), the Holder of
any Agent's Warrants which have not been exercised prior to the
effective date of the Capital Reorganization will be entitled to receive
and will accept, upon the exercise of the Holder's right at any time
after the effective date of the Capital Reorganization, in lieu of the
number of Agent's Compensation Options to which it would have been
entitled to receive upon exercise of the Agent's Warrants, the aggregate
number of shares or other securities or property of the Issuer, or the
continuing, successor or purchasing body corporate, trust, partnership
or other entity, as the case may be, under the Capital Reorganization
that the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of the
Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, it had been
the holder of the number of Agent's Compensation Options to which
immediately before the transaction he was entitled upon exercise of the
Agent's Warrants; no Capital Reorganization will be carried into effect
unless all necessary steps will have been taken so that the Holder will
thereafter be entitled to receive the number of shares or other
securities or property of the Issuer, or of the continuing, successor or
purchasing body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, as the
case may be, under the Capital Reorganization, subject to adjustment
thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be
possible, as those contained in this Section 2.
(d) Reclassification of Common Shares: If the Issuer reclassifies or
otherwise change the outstanding Common Shares, the exercise right will
be adjusted effective immediately upon the reclassification becoming
effective so that if the Holder exercises its rights thereafter it will
be entitled to receive such shares as it would have been entitled to
receive upon exercise of the Agent's Compensation Options had they
exercised immediately prior to the effective date, subject to adjustment
thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be
possible, to those contained in this Section 2.
2.2 Rules Regarding Calculation of Adjustment of Exchange Number
(a) The adjustments and readjustments provided for in this Section 2
are cumulative and subject to subsection 2.2(b), will apply (without
duplication) to successive issues subdivisions, combinations,
consolidations, distributions and any other events that require
adjustment of the Exchange Number or the number or kind of shares or
securities to be issued upon exercise of the Agent's Warrants.
(b) No adjustment in the Exchange Number is required to be made unless
such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the
prevailing Exchange Number; provided, however, that any adjustments
which, except for the provisions of this subsection, would otherwise
have been required to be made, will be carried forward and taken into
account in any subsequent adjustments.
(c) No adjustment in the Exchange Number will be made in respect of
any event described in Section 2.1, other than the events referred to in
Section 2.1(b)(i)(A) and (B), if the Holder is entitled to participate
in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Holder had
exercised the Agent's Warrants evidenced by this certificate prior to or
on the effective date or record date of such event.
(d) No adjustment in the Exchange Number will be made under Section
2.1 in respect of the issue from time to time of Common Shares issuable
from time to time as Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course.
(e) If at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments of the
Exchange Number, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the
auditors of the Issuer or, if they are unable or unwilling to act, by
such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected
by action by the directors of the Issuer and any such determination,
subject to any necessary regulatory approval, will be binding upon the
Issuer and the Holder.
(f) If and whenever at any time from the date hereof during the
Exercise Period the Issuer takes any action affecting the Common Shares,
other than action described in Section 2.1, which in the opinion of the
board of directors of the Issuer would materially affect the rights of
the Holder, the Exchange Number will be adjusted in such manner, if any,
and at such time, by action by the directors of the Issuer in such
manner as they may reasonably determine to be equitable in the
circumstances but subject in all cases to any necessary regulatory
approval. Failure of the taking of action by the directors of the Issuer
so as to provide for an adjustment on or prior to the effective date of
any action by the Issuer affecting the Common Shares will be conclusive
evidence that the board of directors of the Issuer has determined that
it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.
(g) If the Issuer sets a record date to determine the holders of the
Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend
or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and
thereafter legally abandons its plans to pay or deliver such dividend,
distribution or subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment in
the Exchange Number will be required by reason of the setting of such
record date.
(h) As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would
require any adjustment to the Agent's Warrants evidenced hereby,
including the Exchange Number, the Issuer shall take any corporate
action which may be necessary in order that the Issuer have unissued and
reserved in its authorized capital and may validly and legally issue as
fully paid and non-assessable all the shares or other securities which
the Holder is entitled to receive on the full exercise thereof in
accordance with the provisions hereof.
(i) The Issuer will from time to time, immediately after the
occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as
provided in Section 2.1, forthwith give notice to the Holder specifying
the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the results
thereof, including the resulting Exchange Number.
(j) The Issuer covenants to and in favour of the Holder that so long
as any of the Agent's Compensation Options evidenced by this certificate
remain outstanding, it will give notice to the Holder of its intention
to fix a record date for any event referred to in Section 2.1 which may
give rise to an adjustment in the Exchange Number, and, in each case,
such notice must specify the particulars of such event and the record
date and the effective date for such event, and, to the extent
determinable, any adjustment required and the computation of such
adjustment; provided that the Issuer is only required to specify in such
notice such particulars of such event as have been fixed and determined
on the date on which such notice is given. Such notice must be given not
less than fourteen days in each case prior to such applicable record
date or effective date.
(k) In any case where the application of any of this section 2 results
in an increase of the Exchange Number taking effect immediately after
the record date for or occurrence of a specific event, if any Special
Warrants are exercised after that record date or occurrence and prior to
completion of the event or of the period for which a calculation is
required to be made, the Company may postpone the issuance, to the
Holder, of the Securities to which the Holder is entitled by reason of
the increase of the Exchange Number but the Securities will be so issued
and delivered to that holder upon completion of that event or period,
with the number of those Securities calculated on the basis of the
Exchange Number on the Exercise Date adjusted for completion of that
event or period, and the Company will forthwith after the Exercise Date
deliver to the person or persons in whose name or names the Securities
are to be issued an appropriate instrument evidencing the person's or
persons' right to receive the Securities.
2.3 Successor Companies
In the case of the consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer of
the undertaking or assets of the Issuer as an entirety or substantially
as an entirety to another corporation ("successor corporation"), the
successor corporation resulting from the consolidation, amalgamation,
merger or transfer (if not the Issuer) will be bound by the provisions
of this certificate and all obligations for the due and punctual
performance and observance of each and every covenant and obligation
contained in this certificate to be performed by the Issuer.
2.4 Regarding the Special Warrant Agreement and Share Purchase Warrant
Agreement. For greater clarity, the provisions of this section 2 are
not intended to and shall not give the Holder rights in excess of or
lesser than those rights granted in the Special Warrant Agreement dated
April 27, 2000 between the Issuer and Pacific Corporate Trust Company
and the Share Purchase Warrant Agreement dated April 27, 2000 between
the Issuer and Pacific Corporate Trust Company (collectively, the
"Agreements") with respect to the adjustment provisions contained in
Article 7 of the respective agreements. To the extent there is any
inconsistency between the adjustment provisions between the adjustment
provisions herein and those contained in the Agreements, such
inconsistently shall be resolved such that the Holder herein shall have
the same adjustment rights as contained in the Agreements
3. Covenants
The Issuer covenants and agrees that so long as any Agent's Warrants
evidenced hereby remain outstanding it will:
(a) at all times ensure that there are a sufficient number of Common
Shares authorized to be issued upon the exercise of the Agent's
Compensation Options and the Unit Agent's Warrants; provided that
nothing herein contained shall affect or restrict the right of the
Issuer to issue Common Shares from time to time subject to the terms and
conditions of the Agent's Warrants;
(b) at all times ensure that the Common Shares issued under the
Agent's Compensation Options and the Unit Agent's Warrants will, upon
payment therefor of the amount at which such Common Shares may be
purchased, be issued as fully paid and non-assessable free from all
taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issue thereof and upon
issuance such shares shall be listed on each national securities
exchange on which the other shares of outstanding common stock of the
Issuer are then listed or shall be eligible for inclusion in the NASDAQ
National Market or the NASDAQ SmallCap Market if the other shares of
outstanding common stock of the Company are so included;
(c) preserve and maintain its corporate existence, and will use its
best efforts to ensure that the Common Shares outstanding or issuable
from time to time upon the exercise of the Agent's Compensation Options
and the Unit Agent's Warrants are listed and may be traded through the
NASDAQ OTC Bulletin Board and that it will use its commercial best
efforts to list the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the
Agent's Compensation Options and Unit Agent's Warrants and all other
outstanding shares of its common stock on the NASDAQ National Market or
if the Issuer does not meet the listing requirements of the NASDAQ
National Market on the NASDAQ Smallcap Market as soon as possible after
the Closing Date;
