The Purchaser will (i) promptly notify the Company if it becomes aware of any such deductions or withholding, and (ii) remit any withheld or deducted amounts to the appropriate Governmental Entity within the time required by applicable Law. Each of the Purchaser, the Depositary or the Company, as applicable, is hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of, on behalf of such Person, such portion of any share or other security deliverable to such Person as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to the Purchaser, the Depositary or the Company, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and the Purchaser, the Depositary or the Company shall notify such Person thereof and remit the applicable portion of the net proceeds of such sale to the appropriate taxing authority and, if applicable, any portion of such net proceeds that is not required to be so remitted shall be paid to such Person.

Section 2.12 U.S. Securities Law Matters

The Parties agree that the Arrangement will be carried out with the intention that all Arrangement Issued Securities will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and all Arrangement Issued Securities (other than the Purchaser Shares underlying the Replacement Options) will be issued by the Purchaser in reliance on the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption and available exemptions from the registration or qualification requirements of applicable U.S. state securities laws. In order to ensure the availability of the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption and to facilitate the Purchaser’s compliance with other United States securities Laws, the Parties agree that the Arrangement will be carried out on the following basis:

	(i)	pursuant to Section 2.2(2), prior to the issuance of the Interim Order, the Court will be advised as to the intention of the Parties to rely on the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption with respect to the issuance of all Arrangement Issued Securities pursuant to the Arrangement (which, for greater certainty, will exclude the Purchaser Shares underlying the Replacement Options), based on the Court’s approval of the Arrangement;

	(ii)	prior to the issuance of the Interim Order, the Company will file with the Court a copy of the proposed text of the Company Circular together with any other documents required by Law in connection with the Company Meeting;

	(iii)	the Court will be required to satisfy itself as to the substantive and procedural fairness of the Arrangement to the Company Securityholders to whom will be issued Arrangement Issued Securities pursuant to the Arrangement;

	(iv)	the Interim Order will specify that each Person entitled to receive Arrangement Issued Securities pursuant to the Arrangement will have the right to appear before the Court at the hearing of the Court to give approval of the Arrangement so long as they enter an appearance within a reasonable time;

	(v)	the Company will ensure that each Company Shareholder and any other Person entitled to receive the Share Consideration pursuant to the Arrangement will be given adequate and appropriate notice advising them of their right to attend the hearing of the Court to give approval to the Arrangement and providing them with sufficient information necessary for them to exercise that right;

	(vi)	all Persons entitled to receive the Arrangement Issued Securities pursuant to the Arrangement will be advised that the Arrangement Issued Securities issued pursuant to the Arrangement have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and will be issued by the Purchaser in reliance on the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption and available exemptions from the registration or qualification requirements of applicable U.S. state securities laws, and shall be without trading restrictions under the U.S. Securities Act (other than those that would apply under the U.S. Securities Act to Persons who are, have been within 90 days of the Effective Time, or, at the Effective Time, become affiliates (as defined by Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities Act) of the Purchaser);

	(vii)	the Final Order approving the terms and conditions of the Arrangement that is obtained from the Court will, unless otherwise agreed by the Purchaser in writing, expressly state that the Arrangement is approved by the Court as fair and reasonable to all Persons entitled to receive Arrangement Issued Securities pursuant to the Arrangement;

	(viii)	holders of Company Options entitled to receive Replacement Options pursuant to the Arrangement will be advised that the Replacement Options issued pursuant to the Arrangement (and underlying Purchaser Shares) have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act and the Replacement Options will be issued and exchanged by Purchaser in reliance on the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption, but that such exemption does not exempt the issuance of securities upon the exercise of such Replacement Options; therefore, the Purchaser Shares issuable upon exercise of the Replacement Options cannot be issued in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. Person or a person in the United States in reliance on the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption and the Replacement Options may only be exercised pursuant to a then-available exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws;

	(ix)	each Company Securityholder will be advised that with respect to Arrangement Issued Securities issued to Persons who are, have been within 90 days of the Effective Time, or, at the Effective Time become, affiliates (as defined by Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities Act) of the Purchaser, such securities will be subject to restrictions on resale under U.S. Securities Laws, including Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act;

	(x)	the Court will hold a hearing before approving the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement and issuing the Final Order; and

	(xi)	the Company shall request that the Final Order shall include a statement to substantially the following effect:

		“This Order will serve as a basis of a claim to an exemption, pursuant to section 3(a)(10) of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, from the registration requirements otherwise imposed by that act, regarding the distribution of securities of the Purchaser pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement.”

Section 2.13 Adjustment of Consideration

Notwithstanding any restriction or any other matter in this Agreement to the contrary, if, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the issued and outstanding Purchaser Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares by reason of any split, consolidation or stock dividend of the issued and outstanding Purchaser Shares or similar event, then the Consideration to be paid per Company Common Share shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to Company Shareholders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement and the Arrangement prior to such action and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Share Consideration to be paid per Company Common Share.

Section 2.14 U.S. Tax Treatment

(1)

For United States federal income tax purposes, the exchange of Company Common Shares for the Consideration and the amalgamation of the Company and Purchaser with Purchaser as the surviving corporation as set forth in the Plan of Arrangement (the “Acquisition”) are intended to constitute a single integrated transaction qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code and this Agreement is intended to be a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 368 of the Code. Provided that the Acquisition meets the requirements of a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, each Party agrees to treat the Acquisition as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for all United States federal income tax purposes, and agrees to treat this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 368 of the Code, and to not take any position on any Tax Return or otherwise take any Tax reporting position inconsistent with such treatment, unless otherwise required by applicable Law or a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither of Purchaser or the Company makes any representation, warranty or covenant to any other party or to any Company Securityholder, holder of Purchaser Shares or other holder of Company securities or Purchaser securities (including, without limitation, stock options, warrants, debt instruments or other similar rights or instruments) regarding the U.S. tax treatment of the Acquisition, including, but not limited to, whether the Acquisition will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or otherwise as a tax-deferred transaction for purposes of any U.S. state or local income tax Law. Although the Acquisition is intended to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, because the Company is not treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Acquisition is subject to the rules under Section 367(b) of the Code. This Section 2.14 shall be revised as necessary to reflect amendments to this Agreement and the Plan or Arrangement.

(3)	The Company will not be obligated to perform any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization under Section 4.6(2) unless such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization:

	(b)	does not require the approval of any of the Company Securityholders;

	(c)	subject to any indemnities in Section 4.6(7), does not adversely affect or impact the Tax consequences to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, the Company Shareholders or the Company Optionholders (including, for greater certainty, any increase in Tax payable by any of them or the reduction or decrease in any Tax credit or refund otherwise available to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company) in connection with consummation of the Arrangement or otherwise result in any negative Tax consequences being imposed directly on any Company Shareholder or Company Optionholder;

	(d)	would not reasonably be expected to impede or delay the completion of the Arrangement in any material respect, including in connection with obtaining any necessary Regulatory Approval; and

(4)	The Purchaser must provide written notice to the Company of any proposed Pre- Acquisition Reorganization at least 20 Business Days prior to the Effective Date. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company and the Purchaser shall work cooperatively and use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare prior to the Effective Time all documentation necessary and do such other acts and things as are necessary to give effect to such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization, including any amendment to this Agreement or the Plan of Arrangement, provided that any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization: (i) is effected as closely as is reasonably practicable prior to the Effective Time; (ii) would not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) does not require the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Company or its Subsidiaries to take any action in any capacity other than as a director, officer, employee or agent; (iv) would not require any additional Regulatory Approval; (v) would not require any third party consent not otherwise required to close the Arrangement unless the failure to receive such third party consent would not reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect; and (v) shall not become effective unless the Purchaser has irrevocably waived or confirmed in writing the satisfaction of all conditions in its favour under this Agreement and shall have irrevocably confirmed in writing that it is prepared, and able to promptly and without condition (other than compliance with this Section 4.6) immediately proceed to effect the Arrangement.

(5)	The Purchaser agrees that it will be responsible for all costs and expenses (including reasonable professional fees and expenses) associated with any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization to be carried out at its request and that any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization will not be considered in determining whether a representation, warranty or covenant of the Company under this Agreement has been breached (including where any such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization requires the consent of any third party under a Contract) or if a condition for the benefit of the Purchaser has been satisfied.

(6)

The Purchaser shall indemnify the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Representatives for all direct and indirect costs or losses, liabilities, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest awards, judgments and penalties, Taxes, out of-pocket costs and expenses, including out-of- pocket legal fees and disbursements, suffered or incurred in connection with or as a result of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization or the unwinding or reversal of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization.

The Party making such disclosure shall give reasonable consideration to any comments made by the other Party or its counsel, and if such prior notice is not possible, shall give such notice immediately following the making of such disclosure or filing. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the foregoing shall prevent the Company or the Purchaser from making (i) internal announcements to employees and having discussions with shareholders, financial analysts and other stakeholders, or (ii) public announcements in the Ordinary Course that do not relate to this Agreement or the Arrangement so long as, in each case, such announcements and discussions are consistent in all material respects with the most recent press releases, public disclosures or public statements made by the Parties.

(3)	The Purchaser may not elect to exercise its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(1)(d)(i) or Section 7.2(1)(d)(iv) and the Company may not elect to exercise its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(1)(c)(i) or Section 7.2(1)(c)(iii), unless the Party seeking to terminate the Agreement (the “Terminating Party”) has delivered a written notice (“Termination Notice”) to the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) specifying in reasonable detail all breaches of covenants, or incorrect representations and warranties or other matters which the Terminating Party asserts as the basis for termination. After delivering a Termination Notice, provided the Breaching Party is proceeding diligently to cure such matter and such matter is capable of being cured prior to the Outside Date (with any intentional breach being deemed to be incurable), the Terminating Party may not exercise such termination right until the earlier of (a) the Outside Date, and (b) if such matter has not been cured by the date that is 15 Business Days following receipt of such Termination Notice by the Breaching Party, such date. If the Terminating Party delivers a Termination Notice prior to the date of the Company Meeting, unless the Parties agree otherwise, the Company shall postpone or adjourn the Company Meeting to the earlier of (a) 10 Business Days prior to the Outside Date and (b) the date that is 10 Business Days following receipt of such Termination Notice by the Breaching Party.

(5)	Each of the Parties acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated in this Arrangement Agreement and that, without those agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Arrangement Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that the payment amounts set out in this Section 8.2 are payments of liquidated damages which are a genuine pre-estimate of the damages, which the Party entitled to such damages will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to such payment and the resultant termination of this Arrangement Agreement and are not penalties. Each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to raise as a defence that any such liquidated damages are excessive or punitive.

(6)	Subject to Section 7.3, the Purchaser hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that, upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where it is entitled to the Company Termination Fee and such Company Termination Fee is paid in full within the prescribed time period, such Company Termination Fee is the sole remedy of the Purchaser against the Company or its Subsidiaries and the Purchaser shall be precluded from any other remedy against the Company or its Subsidiaries and shall not seek to obtain any recovery, judgment or damages of any kind against the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement.

Any element of a Party’s address that is not specifically changed in a notice will be assumed not to be changed. Sending a copy of a notice or other communication to a Party’s legal counsel as contemplated above is for information purposes only and does not constitute delivery of the notice or other communication to that Party.

Section 8.5 Time of the Essence.

Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

Section 8.6 Injunctive Relief.

The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to enforce compliance with the terms of this Agreement without any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the Parties may be entitled at law or in equity.

Section 8.7 Third Party Beneficiaries.

(1)

Except as provided in Section 4.9 which, without limiting its terms, is intended as stipulations for the benefit of the third Persons mentioned in such provisions (such third Persons referred to in this Section 8.7 as the “Indemnified Persons”), the Company and the Purchaser intend that this Agreement will not benefit or create any right or cause of action in favour of any Person, other than the Parties and that no Person, other than the Parties, shall be entitled to rely on the provisions of this Agreement in any action, suit, proceeding, hearing or other forum.

(2)

Despite the foregoing, the Purchaser acknowledges to each of the Indemnified Persons their direct rights against it under Section 4.9 of this Agreement, which are intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person, his or her heirs and his or her legal representatives, and for such purpose, the Company confirms that it is acting as trustee on their behalf, and agrees to enforce such provisions on their behalf. The Parties reserve their right to vary or rescind the rights at any time and in any way whatsoever, if any, granted by or under this Agreement to any Person who is not a Party, without notice to or consent of that Person, including any Indemnified Person.

Section 8.8 Waiver.

No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar). No waiver will be binding unless executed in writing by the Party to be bound by the waiver. A Party’s failure or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that right. A single or partial exercise of any right will not preclude a Party from any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right.

Section 8.9 Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto, the Company Disclosure Letter, the Purchaser Disclosure Letter and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties. There are no representations, warranties, covenants, conditions or other agreements, express or implied, collateral, statutory or otherwise, between the Parties in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement. The Parties have not relied and are not relying on any other information, discussion or understanding in entering into and completing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(2)	Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations under this Agreement are assignable or transferable by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party.

Section 8.11 Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or any court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

Section 8.12 Governing Law.

(1)	This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal Laws of Canada applicable therein.

(2)	Each Party irrevocably attorns and submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the British Columbia courts situated in the City of Vancouver and waives objection to the venue of any proceeding in such court or that such court provides an inconvenient forum.

Section 8.13 Rules of Construction.

The Parties to this Agreement waive the application of any Law or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in any agreement or other document shall be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or other document.

ARTICLE 2
THE ARRANGEMENT

2.1. Arrangement Agreement

This Plan of Arrangement is made pursuant to and subject to the provisions of the Arrangement Agreement. The sequence of the steps comprising the Arrangement shall occur in the order set forth herein.

2.2. Binding Effect

This Plan of Arrangement and the Arrangement will become effective, and be binding on (i) the Purchaser, (ii) the Company, (iii) all registered and beneficial Company Shareholders (including Dissenting Shareholders), and (iv) all holders of Company Options, at and after, the Effective Time, in each case, without any further act or formality required on the part of the Court, the Registrar or any other Person.

2.3. Arrangement

Commencing at the Effective Time, the following shall occur and shall be deemed to occur sequentially, in two-minute intervals, in the following order and without any further authorization, act or formality unless stated otherwise:

(a)

each Company Common Share held by Dissenting Holders in respect of which Dissent Rights have been validly exercised shall be deemed to have been transferred by the holder thereof, without any further act or formality on its part, free and clear of all Liens, to the Company for cancellation in consideration for a claim against the Company for the amount determined under Article 3, and:

	(i)	such Dissenting Holders shall cease to be the holders of such Company Common Shares and to have any rights as holders of such Company Common Shares other than the right to be paid fair value for such Company Common Shares as set out in Section 3.1; and

	(ii)	such Dissenting Holders’ names shall be removed as the holders of such Company Common Shares from the registers of Company Common Shares maintained by or on behalf of the Company and such Company Common Shares shall be cancelled and cease to be outstanding;

(b)

each Company Common Share outstanding, other than Company Common Shares held by a Dissenting Holder who has validly exercised such holder’s Dissent Right, shall, without any further action by or on behalf of a holder of Company Common Shares, be deemed to be assigned and transferred by the holders thereof to the Purchaser (free and clear of all Liens) in exchange for the Consideration for each Company Common Share held, and:

	(i)	the holders of such Company Common Shares shall cease to be the holders of such Company Common Shares and to have any rights as holders of such Company Common Shares other than the right to be paid the Consideration per Company Common Share in accordance with this Plan of Arrangement;

	(ii)	the name of each such holder shall be removed as the holder of such Company Common Shares from the registers of Company Common Shares maintained by or on behalf of the Company; and

	(iii)	the Purchaser shall be deemed to be the transferee of such Company Common Shares (free and clear of all Liens) and shall be entered in the registers of Company Common Shares maintained by or on behalf of the Company.

(c)

the stated capital of the issued and outstanding shares issued by the Company shall be reduced to an aggregate of $1.00 without any repayment of capital in respect thereof;

(d)

the Purchaser and the Company shall merge (the “Amalgamation”) to form one corporate entity (“Purchaser Amalco”) with the same effect as if they had amalgamated under Section 269 of the BCBCA, except that the legal existence of the Purchaser shall not cease and the Purchaser shall survive the merger as Purchaser Amalco and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Amalgamation, together with the transactions described in Sections 2.3(b) and (c), is intended to constitute a single integrated transaction, qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code for all United States federal income tax purposes, and the Amalgamation is intended to qualify as an amalgamation as defined in subsection 87(1) of the Tax Act, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and as a consequence of the Amalgamation:

	(i)	the separate legal existence of the Company shall cease without the Company being liquidated or wound up and the Purchaser and the Company shall continue as one company and the property, rights, interests and obligations of the Company shall become the property, rights, interests and obligations of Purchaser Amalco;

	(ii)	the properties, rights, interests and obligations of the Purchaser shall continue to be the properties, rights, interests and obligations of Purchaser Amalco, and the Amalgamation shall not constitute an assignment by operation of law, a transfer or any other disposition of the properties, rights and interests of the Purchaser to Purchaser Amalco;

	(iii)	Purchaser Amalco will own and hold the property of the Purchaser and the Company and, without limiting the provisions hereof, all rights of creditors or others of the Purchaser and the Company will be unimpaired by the Amalgamation, and all liabilities and obligations of the Purchaser and the Company, whether arising by contract or otherwise, may be enforced against Purchaser Amalco to the same extent as if such obligations had been incurred or contracted by Purchaser Amalco;

	(iv)	Purchaser Amalco will continue to be liable for all of the liabilities and obligations of the Purchaser and the Company;

	(v)	all rights, contracts, permits and interests of the Purchaser and the Company will continue as rights, contracts, permits and interests of Purchaser Amalco as if the Purchaser and the Company continued and, for greater certainty, the Amalgamation will not constitute a transfer or assignment of the rights or obligations of either the Purchaser or the Company under any such rights, contracts, permits and interests;

	(vi)	any existing cause of action, claim or liability to prosecution will be unaffected;

	(vii)	a civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding pending by or against either the Purchaser or the Company may be continued by or against Purchaser Amalco;

	(viii)	a conviction against, or ruling, order or judgment in favour of or against either the Purchaser or the Company may be enforced by or against Purchaser Amalco;

	(ix)	each issued and outstanding share of each class of Purchaser Shares shall become a share of the same class of shares of Purchaser Amalco having the same terms and conditions as such Purchaser Shares had immediately prior to the Amalgamation (“Purchaser Amalco Shares”) and all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company will be cancelled without repayment of capital in respect thereof;

	(x)	the name of Purchaser Amalco shall be Planet 13 Holdings Inc.;

	(xi)	Purchaser Amalco shall be authorized to issue an unlimited number of class A restricted voting shares and common shares each without par value;

	(xii)	the articles and notice of articles of Purchaser Amalco shall be in the form of the articles and notice of articles of the Purchaser;

	(xiii)	the first annual general meeting of Purchaser Amalco or resolutions in lieu thereof shall be held within 18 months from the Effective Date;

	(xiv)	the first directors of Purchaser Amalco following the amalgamation shall be the then current Purchaser directors; and

	(xv)	the stated capital of each class of shares of Purchaser Amalco will be an amount equal to the stated capital attributable to the corresponding class of Purchaser Shares immediately prior to the Amalgamation; and

(e)

Upon and simultaneously with the immediately preceding step, each Company Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether vested or unvested) will cease to represent an option or other right to acquire Company Common Shares and will be exchanged for an option (a “Replacement Option”) to purchase from the Purchaser Amalco such number of Purchaser Amalco Shares, in each case equal to (A) that number of Company Common Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Purchaser Amalco Shares at an exercise price per Purchaser Amalco Share equal to the quotient determined by dividing: (X) the exercise price per Company Common Share at which such Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (Y) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. All other terms and conditions of such Replacement Option, including the term to expiry, vesting, conditions to and manner of exercising, will be the same as the Company Option for which it was exchanged except that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Replacement Options shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchaser Amalco’s stock option plan in effect at the applicable time; and further, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Company Optionholders who are United States persons under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, such Replacement Options must comply with the requirements for substitution under section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulations at 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined in good faith that: (I) the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the Purchaser Amalco Shares subject to a Replacement Option, determined immediately after the effective time of this Section 2.3(e), over the aggregate option exercise price for such Purchaser Amalco Shares pursuant to such Replacement Option (such excess referred to as the “In the Money Amount” of the Replacement Option) would otherwise exceed (II) the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the Company Common Shares subject to the Company Option in exchange for which the Replacement Option was granted, determined immediately prior to the effective time of this Section 2.3(e), over the aggregate option exercise price for the Company Common Shares pursuant to such Company Option (such excess referred to as the “In the Money Amount” of the Company Option), the previous provisions shall be modified so that the In the Money Amount of the Replacement Option does not exceed the In the Money Amount of the Company Option in accordance with subsection 7(1.4) of the Tax Act and to the extent applicable, Section 409A of the Code, but only to the extent necessary and in a manner that does not otherwise (except to the extent necessary to comply with subsection 7(1.4) of the Tax Act and Section 409A of the Code) adversely affect the holder of the Replacement Option.

2.4. Post-Effective Time Procedures

An Eligible Holder whose Company Common Shares are exchanged for the Consideration pursuant to the Arrangement shall be entitled to make a joint income tax election with the Purchaser, pursuant to section 85 of the Tax Act (and any analogous provision of provincial income tax law) (a “Section 85 Election”) with respect to the exchange by providing two signed copies of the necessary joint election forms to an appointed representative, as directed by the Purchaser, within 90 days after the Effective Date, duly completed with the details of the number of Common Shares transferred and the applicable agreed amounts for the purposes of such joint elections. The agreed amount under such joint elections shall be determined by each Company Shareholder in his or her sole discretion, provided such amounts are within the limits set out in the Tax Act. The Purchaser shall, within 45 days after receiving the completed joint election forms from an Eligible Holder, and subject to such joint election forms being correct and complete and in compliance with requirements imposed under the Tax Act (or applicable provincial income tax law), sign and return them to the Eligible Holder for filing with the Canada Revenue Agency (or the applicable provincial tax authority). Neither the Purchaser nor any successor corporation shall be responsible for the proper completion of any joint election form nor, except for the obligation to sign and return duly completed joint election forms which are received within 90 days of the Effective Date, for any taxes, interest or penalties resulting from the failure of an Eligible Holder to properly complete or file such joint election forms in the form and manner and within the time prescribed by the Tax Act (or any applicable provincial legislation). In its sole discretion, the Purchaser or any successor corporation may choose to sign and return a joint election form received by it more than 90 days following the Effective Date, but will have no obligation to do so.

2.5. No Fractional Purchaser Shares

In no event shall any fractional Purchaser Shares be issued under this Plan of Arrangement. Where the aggregate number of Purchaser Shares to be issued to a Company Shareholder as consideration under this Plan of Arrangement would result in a fraction of a Purchaser Share being issuable, then the number of Purchaser Shares to be issued to such Company Shareholder shall be rounded down to the closest whole number and, in lieu of the issuance of a fractional Purchaser Share thereof, the Purchaser will pay to each such holder a cash payment (rounded up to the nearest cent) determined by reference to the volume weighted average trading price of the Purchaser Shares on the CSE for the five trading days on which such Purchaser Shares trade on the CSE immediately prior to the Effective Date.

2.6. U.S. Securities Laws

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Purchaser and the Company agree that the Plan of Arrangement will be carried out with the intention that all Arrangement Issued Securities (other than the Purchaser Shares underlying the Replacement Options) to be issued in connection with the Arrangement shall be exempt from registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act pursuant to the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption thereunder, and available exemptions from the registration or qualification requirements of applicable U.S. state securities laws, and shall be without trading restrictions under the U.S. Securities Act (other than those that would apply under the U.S. Securities Act to Persons who are, have been within 90 days of the Effective Time, or, at the Effective Time, become affiliates (as defined by Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities Act)).

In addition to any other restrictions under Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA, none of the following shall be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights: (i) Company Optionholders; or (ii) Company Shareholders who vote, or who have instructed a proxyholder to vote, such Company Common Shares in favour of the Arrangement Resolution.

ARTICLE 4
CERTIFICATES AND PAYMENTS

	(a)	On or immediately prior to the Effective Date in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Share Consideration and the Cash Consideration (subject to Section 4.1(f)) to which Company Shareholders are entitled, to the depositary to satisfy the Consideration per Company Common Share issuable and/or payable to the Company Shareholders pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement (other than Company Shareholders who have validly exercised Dissent Rights and who have not withdrawn their notice of objection), which Purchaser Shares and Cash Consideration shall be held by the Depositary for and on behalf of the former Company Shareholders until delivered or paid to such former Company Shareholders subject to and in accordance with this Article 4.

	(b)	Upon surrender to the Depositary for cancellation of a certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Company Common Shares that were transferred pursuant to Section 2.3(b), together with a duly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal and such additional documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Depositary shall deliver to such holder, the Cash Consideration (subject to Section 4.1(f)), and a certificate representing the number of Purchaser Shares to which such holder has the right to receive under the Arrangement, which Purchaser Shares will be registered in the name or names and either (i) delivered to the address or addresses as such Company Shareholder directed in their Letter of Transmittal or (ii) made available for pick up at the offices of the Depositary in accordance with the instructions of the Company Shareholder in the Letter of Transmittal, and any certificate representing Company Common Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

	(c)	Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 4.1, each certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Company Common Shares (other than Company Common Shares in respect of which Dissent Rights have been validly exercised and not withdrawn), shall be deemed after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Consideration in lieu of such certificate as contemplated in this Section 4.1, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.3. Any such certificate formerly representing Company Common Shares not duly surrendered on or before the second anniversary of the Effective Date shall cease to represent a claim by or interest of any former holder of Company Common Shares of any kind or nature against or in the Company or the Purchaser. On such date, all Consideration to which such former holder was entitled shall be deemed to have been surrendered to Purchaser and shall be delivered by the Depositary to Purchaser as directed by the Purchaser.

	(e)	All amounts of Cash Consideration to be received under this Plan of Arrangement will be calculated to the nearest cent ($0.01).

All calculations and determinations by the Purchaser or the Depositary, as applicable, for the purposes of this Plan of Arrangement shall be conclusive, final and binding.

	(f)	At the option of the Purchaser, Cash Consideration payable to a Company Shareholder that is an amount less than $10.00 may be required to be picked up by such former Company Shareholder from the Depositary’s office set forth in the Letter of Transmittal following five (5) Business Days’ prior notice thereof. Any such amount not picked up before the second anniversary of the Effective Date shall cease to represent a claim by or interest of any former holder of Company Common Shares of any kind or nature against or in the Company or the Purchaser. On such date, all Cash Consideration to which such former holder was entitled shall be deemed to have been surrendered to the Purchaser and shall be delivered by the Depositary to the Purchaser as directed by the Purchaser.

	(g)	No holder of Company Common Shares shall be entitled to receive any consideration with respect to such Company Common Shares other than the Consideration to which such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 2.3 and this Section 4.1 less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.3 and, for greater certainty, no such holder with be entitled to receive any interest, dividends, premium or other payment in connection therewith.

4.2. Lost Certificates

In the event any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Company Common Shares that were transferred pursuant to Section 2.3 shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Consideration that such Company Shareholder has the right to receive in accordance with Section 2.3 and deliverable in accordance with such holder’s Letter of Transmittal. When authorizing such exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Person to whom such Consideration is to be delivered shall, as a condition precedent to the delivery of such Consideration, give a bond satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Depositary (acting reasonably) in such sum as the Purchaser may direct (acting reasonably), or otherwise indemnify Purchaser and the Company in a manner satisfactory to the Purchaser (acting reasonably) against any claim that may be made against the Purchaser and the Company with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

4.3. Withholding Rights

The Purchaser, the Company and the Depositary, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to any Person under this Plan of Arrangement (including, without limitation, any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.1), such amounts as the Purchaser, the Company or the Depositary (as applicable) determines, acting reasonably, are required or permitted to be deducted and withheld with respect to such payment under the Tax Act, the Code or any provision of any other Law.

The Purchaser has filed all documents and information required to be filed by it, whether pursuant to applicable Securities Laws or otherwise, on SEDAR and with applicable securities regulatory authorities, except where non- compliance would not be material and adverse to the Purchaser. The Purchaser has not made any confidential filings with any securities regulatory authorities that, as at the date of this Agreement, are not publicly available.

The Purchaser Financial Statements (including in all cases the notes thereto, if any) have been prepared from, and are consistent with, the books and records of the Purchaser and accurately present in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations of the Purchaser as of the times and for the periods referred to therein.

	(c)	There has been no fraud, whether or not material, involving management or other Purchaser Employees who have a significant role in the internal control over financial reporting of the Purchaser and the preparation of the Purchaser Financial Statements.

All Purchaser Derivative Securities, the material terms of which are set forth in Section 7(b) of the Purchaser Disclosure Letter, were issued in compliance with applicable Laws and were not issued in violation of the Purchaser’s Constating Documents or any Contract to which the Purchaser is a party.

Each Party agrees and confirms that any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by all of the Parties or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar). No waiver will be binding unless executed in writing by the Party to be bound by the waiver. A Party’s failure or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that right. A single or partial exercise of any right will not preclude a Party from any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar).

4.7. Entire Agreement

This Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the Parties with respect thereto.
