Within three Business Days after receipt of the First Refusal Notice, the Secretary shall give notice (in this Article, the "Secretary's Notice") to each of the Other Shareholders. The Secretary's Notice:

(a): shall offer for sale to each of the Other Shareholders that number of Offered Shares which bears the same relationship to the total number of Offered Shares as the number of Shares held at such date by each such Other Shareholder bears to the total number of outstanding Shares at such date excluding the Offered Shares (in this Article, the "Proportionate Entitlement");
(b): shall state the price for any Offered Shares that may be purchased by the Other Shareholders and the terms of payment thereof; and
(c): shall state that any Other Shareholder who wishes to purchase a number of Offered Shares less than or more than its Proportionate Entitlement shall, in its notice of acceptance under Section 6.04, indicate how many Offered Shares less than or more than its Proportionate Entitlement it wishes to purchase.

The offer constituted by the Secretary's Notice shall be irrevocable and shall remain open for acceptance by the Other Shareholders for a period of 30 days after receipt thereof.

Section 6.04 Other Shareholders May Give Notice of Acceptance

Each of the Other Shareholders shall have the right, exercisable by notice given to the Secretary within 30 days after receipt of the Secretary's Notice, to agree that it will purchase its Proportionate Entitlement of the Offered Shares or, if it wishes to purchase less than or more than its Proportionate Entitlement, to indicate how many Offered Shares less than or more than its Proportionate Entitlement it wishes to purchase. If no notice is given by an Other Shareholder under this section, the Other Shareholder shall be deemed to have rejected the offer made available to it to purchase Offered Shares.

Section 6.05 Right to Purchase Unsubscribed Shares

If any of the Other Shareholders does not agree to purchase all the Offered Shares which it is entitled to purchase or is deemed to have rejected the offer made available to it to purchase Offered Shares (in this Article, a "Declining Offeree"), the Secretary shall forthwith so notify (in this Article, the "Additional Notice") each of the Other Shareholders who has agreed to purchase not less than its Proportionate Entitlement of the Offered Shares. Each such Other Shareholder shall have the right to purchase that number, or any part thereof, of the Offered Shares which have not been accepted for purchase by the Shareholders entitled to do so (in this Article, the "Unsubscribed Shares") which bears the same relationship to the total number of Unsubscribed Shares as the number of Shares held by such Other Shareholder bears to the total number of Shares held by all Other Shareholders who are entitled to purchase such Unsubscribed Shares.

Each Other Shareholder who receives an Additional Notice shall have the right, exercisable by notice given to the Secretary within 15 days after receipt of the Additional Notice, to agree that it will purchase the number of Unsubscribed Shares which it is entitled to purchase or any lesser or greater number thereof specified by it in such notice. If no notice is given by any such Other Shareholder under this section within such 15 day period, such Other Shareholder shall be deemed to have rejected the offer made available to it to purchase Unsubscribed Shares.

The provisions of this Section 6.05 shall be applied, mutatis mutandis, until the Other Shareholders entitled to do so from time to time have agreed to accept or have rejected or have been deemed to have rejected the offer contained in the latest Additional Notice with respect to all the Unsubscribed Shares at such time.

Section 6.06 Other Shareholders May Agree on Manner of Purchase

If they all agree in writing, the Other Shareholders may purchase the Offered Shares in proportions otherwise than as provided in Sections 6.03 or 6.05, provided that the Other Shareholders may not purchase less than all of the Offered Shares.

Section 6.07 Sale to Third Party if All Offered Shares Not Purchased

If all of the Offered Shares have not been accepted for purchase by one or more of the Other Shareholders within the period of 30 days after receipt of the Secretary's Notice or within the period of 15 days after receipt of the latest Additional Notice, whichever is later, (in this Article, the "acceptance period"), the Other Shareholders shall be deemed to have rejected the offer made available to them to purchase the Offered Shares and the Selling Shareholder shall be entitled, within the period of 90 days after the expiry of the acceptance period, to sell the Shares held by such Selling Shareholder to a Third Party Purchaser on terms and conditions no more favourable in any respect to the Third Party Purchaser than those contained in the First Refusal Notice provided that, prior to the completion of such sale, such Third Party Purchaser and any Person Controlling such Third Party Purchaser become subject to all of the obligations of the Selling Shareholder under this Agreement and agree to be bound by all of the provisions hereof as contemplated in Section 4.06, in which case such Third Party Purchaser shall become entitled to exercise all the rights of the Selling Shareholder under this Agreement. If the sale is not completed within such 90 day period the provisions of Section 6.01 shall apply again to any proposed sale of the Offered Shares and so on from time to time.

Section 6.08 Completion of Purchase and Sale

If one or more of the Other Shareholders exercise the right to purchase the Offered Shares pursuant to Sections 6.04, 6.05 or 6.06, the purchase of the Offered Shares by each of the Other Shareholders who have agreed to purchase the same shall be completed concurrently and as part of the same closing (which shall be not later than 30 days following the expiry of all applicable time periods set forth in Sections 6.04, 6.05 or 6.06) at the price set out in the First Refusal Notice and in accordance with the terms of the First Refusal Notice.

Section 6.09 Rights of the Selling Shareholders On Default

If an Other Shareholder who has agreed to purchase any Offered Shares defaults in payment of the purchase price for such Offered Shares or any part thereof required to be purchased by him on the date scheduled for completion of the purchase and sale (in this Article, the "completion date"), the Selling Shareholder shall not be required to sell any Offered Shares to any of the Other Shareholders unless some or all of the Other Shareholders purchase all of the Offered Shares on the completion date. If the Other Shareholders do not do so, the Selling Shareholder shall be entitled, within the period of 90 days after the completion date, to sell the Offered Shares to a Third Party Purchaser on terms and conditions no more favourable in any respect than those contained in the First Refusal Notice, provided that, prior to the completion of such sale, such Third Party Purchaser and any Person Controlling such Third Party Purchaser become subject to all of the obligations of the Selling Shareholder under this Agreement as contemplated in Section 4.06, in which case such Third Party Purchaser shall become entitled to exercise all the rights of the Selling Shareholder under this Agreement. If the sale is not completed within such 90 day period, the provisions of Section 6.01 shall apply again to any proposed sale of the Offered Shares and so on from time to time.

Section 6.10 Restriction on Exercise of First Refusal

A Shareholder shall not be entitled to deliver a First Refusal Notice during the period from the date on which a Triggering Event with respect to such Shareholder, his Related Individual or any of his Related Shareholders has occurred or an event has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a Triggering Event, in each case to the date which is 30 days thereafter.

The Other Shareholders agree to structure the purchase of the Unsold Shares in the most tax effective manner possible in the event of the death or Disability of a Shareholder or its Related Individual including purchasing the shares of the Defaulting Shareholder's holding company from his estate rather than the holding company's shares of the Corporation.

(b)

Secretary as Agent for the Defaulting Shareholder and Related Shareholders: In the circumstances referred to in subsection 8.02(a)(i), the Secretary shall be constituted the agent for the Defaulting Shareholder and all his Related Shareholders to offer to sell the Unsold Shares to the other Shareholders (the "Other Shareholders") in the manner provided herein. The purchase price for each Unsold Share shall be the Per Share Value as determined in accordance with Section 8.03 and shall be payable in accordance with Section 8.04.

(ii): shall state that the purchase price for any Unsold Shares shall be the Selling Price thereof and shall be payable in cash; and
(iii): shall state that any Other Shareholder who wishes to purchase a number of Unsold Shares less than or more than his Proportionate Entitlement shall, in his notice of acceptance under Section 8.02(d), indicate how many Unsold Shares less than or more than his Proportionate Entitlement he wishes to purchase.

The offer constituted by the Secretary's Notice shall be irrevocable and shall remain open for acceptance by the Other Shareholders for a period of 30 days after receipt thereof.

(d): Other Shareholders May Give Notice of Acceptance: Each of the Other Shareholders shall have the right, exercisable by notice given to the Secretary within the period during which the offer constituted by the Secretary's Notice is open for acceptance under Section 8.02(c), to agree that he will purchase his Proportionate Entitlement of the Unsold Shares or, if he wishes to purchase less than or more than his Proportionate Entitlement, to indicate how many Unsold Shares less than or more than his Proportionate Entitlement he wishes to purchase. If no notice is given by an Other Shareholder under this section, the Other Shareholder shall be deemed to have rejected the offer made available to him to purchase Unsold Shares.

(e): Right to Purchase Unsubscribed Shares: If any of the Other Shareholders does not agree to purchase all the Unsold Shares which he is entitled to purchase or is deemed to have rejected the offer made available to him to purchase Unsold Shares (a "Declining Offeree"), the Secretary shall forthwith so notify (the "Additional Notice") each of the Other Shareholders who has agreed to purchase not less than his Proportionate Entitlement of the Unsold Shares. Each such Other Shareholder shall have the right to purchase that number, or any part thereof, of the Unsold Shares which have not been accepted for purchase by the Shareholders entitled to do so (the "Unsubscribed Shares") which bears the same relationship to the total number of Unsubscribed Shares as the number of Shares held by such Other Shareholder bears to the total number of Shares held by all Other Shareholders who are entitled to purchase such Unsubscribed Shares.

Each Other Shareholder who receives an Additional Notice shall have the right, exercisable by notice given to the Secretary within 15 days after receipt of the Additional Notice, to agree to purchase the number of Unsubscribed Shares which such Other Shareholder is entitled to purchase or any lesser or greater number thereof specified by such Other Shareholder in such notice. If no notice is given by such Other Shareholder under this section within such 15 day period, such Other Shareholder shall be deemed to have rejected the offer to purchase Unsubscribed Shares.

The provisions of this Section 8.02(e) shall be applied, mutatis mutandis, until the Other Shareholders entitled to do so from time to time have agreed to accept or have rejected or are deemed to have rejected the offer contained in the latest Additional Notice with respect to all the Unsubscribed Shares at such time.

(f): Other Shareholders May Agree on Manner of Purchase: If they all agree in writing, the Other Shareholders may purchase the Unsold Shares in proportions otherwise than as provided in Sections 8.02(c) or 8.02(e).
(g): Completion of Purchase and Sale: The completion of all purchases and sales of Triggered Shares under this Section 8.02 shall take place concurrently and as part of the same closing on the 60th day after the expiry of the applicable period referred to in Section 8.02(c) or on the 30th day after receipt of the latest Additional Notice, whichever is later, provided that if the Selling Price of the Shares has not been determined by such day, the completion shall take place on the 10th day after the date on which the Selling Price has been conclusively determined.

Section 8.03 Determination of Purchase Price

(a): The purchase price for Shares purchased pursuant to Section 8.02 (the "Purchase Price") shall be the per share value (the "Per Share Value") of each Share multiplied by the number of Shares being purchased. The Per Share Value of each Share shall be the value of a Share of the Corporation determined in accordance with subsection (b) or (c) below.

(b)

The board of directors of the Corporation shall determine the Per Share Value at the meeting of the board of directors in each year at which the audited financial statements in respect of the previous fiscal year of the Corporation are approved. If the board of directors has determined the Per Share Value within 365 days prior to the date on which a Triggering Event occurs, the purchase price shall equal the Per Share Value so determined times the number of Shares to be purchased.

(c)

If the board of directors has not determined the Per Share Value within 365 days prior to the date on which a Triggering Event occurs, the Purchase Price shall be determined in accordance with the following procedure:

(i): The Selling Shareholder (or his personal representative) shall appoint one appraiser (the "Seller's Appraiser") and the Purchaser (whether it be the Corporation, the non-selling Shareholders or a combination thereof) shall appoint one appraiser (the "Purchaser's Appraiser"). The Seller's Appraiser and the Purchaser's Appraiser shall be independent professionals who are experienced in business valuations and who use generally accepted accounting practices. Each Appraiser shall evaluate the fair market value of the Corporation to determine the Per Share Value, shall multiply that Per Share Value by the number of shares to be purchased to reflect its appraised Purchase Price (the "Appraisal"), and shall send its Appraisal to all Shareholders.
(ii): If the Appraisal values are the same, the value so stated shall be the Purchase Price. If the Appraisal values vary by 10% or less, the Purchase Price shall be the average of the two Appraisal values. If the Appraisal values vary by more than 10%, the Seller's Appraiser and the Purchaser's Appraiser, within 20 days after the mailing of the second Appraisal, shall agree on an independent professional who is experienced in business valuations and who uses generally accepted accounting practices (the "Independent Appraiser"), who shall review the two Appraisals and shall, within 10 days of receipt of both Appraisals, select one to be used as the Per Share Value. The Parties hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Independent Appraiser from any liability resulting from the selection of an Appraisal, except for gross negligence or intentional misconduct.
(iii): The date to be used as the date of valuation for the Purchase Price shall be, in the case of a Shareholder's Disability, the last day of the month in which the Shareholder becomes disabled in accordance with the terms hereof, in the case of a Shareholder's death, the last day of the month in which the Shareholder dies and, for any other Triggering Event, the last day of the month in which the Triggering Event occurs.

Section 8.04 Payment of Purchase Price

(a)

Payment of the Purchase Price for Shares purchased and sold pursuant to Section 8.02 (except pursuant to a Shareholder's Disability or death) shall be made as follows:

(i): 10% of the Purchase Price shall be paid at closing in cash or by certified cheque; and
(ii): 90% of the Purchase Price shall be paid by delivery to the Seller (or his personal representative) of a promissory note obligating the purchaser or purchasers ("Purchasing Entity") to pay the balance of the Purchase Price in three equal annual instalments of principal plus interest on the outstanding principal balance at a fixed rate equal to the prime rate charged by the Corporation's banker in Toronto, Ontario (the "Prime Rate"), at the date of closing.

(b)

Payment for Shares purchased and sold pursuant to a Shareholder's Disability shall be made in accordance with either of the two following formulas:

(i): If the Purchasing Entity receives proceeds from any disability insurance policy obtained to fund the purchase of the disabled Shareholder's Shares, at closing it shall be required to pay over all such proceeds as part of the Purchase Price. If such proceeds are insufficient to pay the full Purchase Price, then at closing the Purchasing Entity shall pay the balance of the Purchase Price by delivering a promissory note which shall provide for payment in three equal annual instalments of principal, plus interest, on the outstanding principal balance at a fixed rate equal to the Prime Rate at the date of closing. If the Purchasing Entity receives any proceeds on such policy in excess of the Purchase Price, the excess proceeds shall revert to the owner of the policy.
(ii): If the Purchasing Entity does not receive proceeds from any disability insurance policy obtained to fund the purchase of the disabled Shareholder's Shares, then at closing it shall deliver to the Selling Shareholder 10% of the Purchase Price, in cash or by certified cheque and a promissory note payable to the Selling Shareholder which shall obligate the Purchasing Entity to pay the balance of the Purchase Price in three equal annual instalments of principal, plus interest, on the outstanding principal balance at a fixed rate equal to the Prime Rate at the date of closing.

(c)

Payment for Shares purchased and sold as the result of a Shareholder's death shall be made as follows:

(i): If the Purchasing Entity receives proceeds from any life insurance policy obtained to fund the purchase of the deceased Shareholder's Shares, at closing it shall be required to pay over all such proceeds as part of the Purchase Price. If such proceeds are insufficient to pay the full Purchase Price, then the Purchasing Entity shall pay the balance of the Purchase Price by delivering at closing a promissory note which shall provide for payment in three equal annual instalments of principal, plus interest, on the outstanding principal balance at a fixed rate equal to the Prime Rate at the date of closing. If the Purchasing Entity receives any proceeds on such policy in excess of the Purchase Price, the excess proceeds shall revert to the owner of the policy (or the estate of such owner if the owner is deceased).

(ii): If the Purchasing Entity does not receive proceeds from any life insurance policy obtained to fund the purchase of the deceased Shareholder's Shares, at closing the Purchasing Entity shall deliver to the personal representative of the deceased Shareholder 10% of the Purchase Price, in cash or by certified cheque along with a promissory note payable to the estate of the deceased Shareholder obligating the Purchasing Entity to pay the balance of the Purchase Price in three equal annual instalments of principal, plus interest, on the outstanding principal balance at a fixed rate equal to the Prime Rate at the date of the closing.

(d): At the option of the Purchasing Entity, on any purchase and sale of Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the full Purchase Price or any portion thereof greater than that amount above specified to be paid at closing may be paid at closing and prepayments of principal under any promissory note delivered to the Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall be allowed without penalty.

Closing shall take place at 11:00 a.m. on the date for completion at the principal place of business of the Corporation.
(c): Title: The acceptance by the vendor of payment for the Shares being purchased and sold shall constitute a representation and warranty by the vendor that the vendor has good and marketable title to such Shares free and clear of any lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance, security interest or adverse claim, except the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the vendor shall deliver to the purchaser all such documents, instruments and releases and shall do all such acts and things as the purchaser may reasonably request, whether before or after completion of the transaction, to vest such title in the purchaser.
(d): Vendor Indebted to Corporation: If, at the time of sale, the vendor is indebted to the Corporation or any Subsidiary, the purchaser shall have the right to satisfy such indebtedness out of the purchase price payable for the Shares.
(e): Liability as Guarantor: If, at the time of sale, the vendor is liable or responsible as a guarantor for any debts, liabilities or obligations of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, the purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to cause all such guarantees to be released at or before the time of sale.

Failure to Complete Sale: If, at the time of closing, the vendor shall not complete the sale for any reason, the purchaser shall have the right to deposit the purchase price for the Shares to be purchased and sold for the account of the vendor in an account with the principal bankers of the Corporation and such deposit shall constitute valid and effective payment of the purchase price to the vendor. Thereafter the purchaser shall have the right to execute and deliver any deeds, stock transfers, assignments, resignations, releases and other documents as may, in the reasonable opinion of the purchaser, be necessary or desirable in order to complete the transaction. If payment of the purchase price is so deposited, then from and after the date of deposit, notwithstanding that certificates evidencing the Shares may not have been delivered to the purchaser, the purchase of the Shares shall be deemed to have been fully completed and the records of the Corporation shall be amended accordingly and all right, title, benefit and interest, both at law and in equity in and to the Shares shall be conclusively deemed to have been transferred and assigned to and become vested in the purchaser and all right, title, benefit and interest, both at law and in equity, of the vendor or of any transferee, assignee or any other Person having any interest therein, legal or equitable, therein in any capacity whatsoever shall cease.
