option-based award means an award under an equity incentive plan of options, including, for greater certainty, share options, share appreciation rights and similar instruments that have option-like features.

option-based award means an award under an equity incentive plan of options, including, for greater certainty, share options, share appreciation rights and similar instruments that have option-like features. This does not represent cash paid to the NEO. This figure is based on the grant date fair value of such options. The grant date fair value was determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. This methodology was chosen in order to be consistent with the accounting fair value used by the Company in its financial statements, and the Black-Scholes option pricing model is a commonly used methodology for valuing options which provides an objective and reasonable estimate of fair value. The key assumptions of this valuation include current market price of the stock, exercise price of the option, option term, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield of stock and volatility of stock return. Calculating the value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model is very different from a simple "in-the-money" value calculation. In fact, stock options that are well out-of-the-money can still have a significant "grant date fair value" based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model, especially where, as in the case of the Company, the price of the share underlying the option is highly volatile. Accordingly, caution must be exercised in comparing grant date fair value amounts with cash compensation or an in-the-money option value calculation.

The Corporation follows the fair value method of accounting for all stock-based compensation arrangements. The values reported represent an estimate of the grant date fair value of the Options calculated in accordance with the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Please see the audited annual financial statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 for details regarding the assumptions underlying these Black-Scholes estimates. The Black-Scholes model is a pricing model that may or may not reflect the actual value of the Options. The Black-Scholes methodology was selected in order to maintain consistency with the Corporation’s prior practice and because it is widely used by Canadian public companies for estimated option-based compensation.

The fair values of Option grants have been determined using the same methodology and values used in determining the share option value for the Corporation's financial statements as the Corporation believes it represents the best estimate of fair value of the Options at the time of grant. The fair value of these Options was calculated by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as follows: (i) for Options granted during the financial year ended October 31, 2021 by assuming a risk-free interest rate of 0.30% - 0.69%, a dividend yield of $nil per share, the expected annual volatility of the Corporation's share price of 28%
