PROXY STATEMENT
FOR
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD SEPTEMBER 12, 2006

_________________

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this statement to “Gryphon Gold,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Gryphon Gold Corporation.

The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Gryphon Gold will be held on Tuesday, September 12, 2006 at The Vancouver Club, 915 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, beginning at 1:30PM. We are providing the enclosed proxy materials and form of proxy in connection with the solicitation by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) of proxies for this Annual Meeting. The Company anticipates that this Proxy Statement and the form of proxy will first be mailed to holders of the Company’s Stock on or about August 18, 2006.

You are invited to attend the meeting at the above stated time and location. If you plan to attend and your shares are held in “street name” – in an account with a bank, broker, or other nominee- you must obtain a proxy issued in your name from such broker, bank or other nominee.

You can vote your shares by completing and returning the proxy card or, if you hold shares in “street name,” by completing the voting form provided by the broker, bank or other nominee. A returned signed proxy card without an indication of how shares should be voted will be voted FOR the election of all Directors, FOR the ratification of the By-laws Amendment, FOR the ratification of the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, FOR the ratification of the audited financial statements, and FOR the ratification of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

Our corporate bylaws define a quorum as a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding voting stock present in person or by proxy. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation do not allow cumulative voting for Directors. The nominees who receive the most votes will be elected. A simple majority of the shares present, whether in person or by proxy, is required to ratify the By-laws Amendment, the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, the 2006 audited financial statements, and the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING

Why am I receiving this Proxy Statement and proxy card?

You are receiving this Proxy Statement and proxy card because you were a stockholder of record at the close of business August 9, 2006, and are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement describes issues on which the Company would like you, as a stockholder, to vote. It provides information on these issues so that you can make an informed decision. You do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares.

When you sign the proxy card you appoint Anthony D.J. Ker, Executive Vice-President Treasurer and Secretary to Gryphon Gold, your representative at the meeting. As your representative, he will vote your shares at the meeting (or any adjournments or postponements) as you have instructed them on the proxy card. With proxy voting, your shares will be voted whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting. Even if you plan to attend the meeting, it is a good idea to complete, sign and return your proxy card in advance of the meeting, just in case your plans change.

If an issue comes up for vote at the meeting (or any adjournments or postponements) that is not described in this Proxy Statement, your representative will vote your shares, under your proxy, at their discretion, subject to any limitations imposed by law.

When is the record date?

The Board of Directors has fixed August 9, 2006, as the record date for the Annual Meeting. Only holders of Gryphon Gold voting stock as of the close of business on that date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

How many shares are outstanding?

As of August 9, 2006, the Company had [41,048,870] shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

What am I voting on?

You are being asked to vote on the following:

•

The election of eight (8) directors for terms expiring in 2007;

•

The ratification of the By-laws Amendment;

•

The ratification of the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan;

•

The ratification of the Company's 2006 fiscal audited financial statements;

•

The ratification of the appointment of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm; and

•

Any other business that may properly come before the meeting.

Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote. No cumulative rights are authorized, and dissenters’ rights are not applicable to any of the matters being voted upon.

The Board recommends a vote FOR each of the nominees to the Board, FOR the ratification of the By-laws Amendment, FOR the ratification of the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, FOR the ratification of the 2006 audited financial statements, and FOR the ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

How do I vote?

You have several voting options. You may vote by:

•

Signing your proxy card and mailing it in the enclosed, prepaid and addressed envelope;

•

Signing and faxing your proxy card to our transfer agent for proxy voting at the number provided on the proxy card;

•

Voting over the Internet by following the procedures provided on the proxy card; or

•

Attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

If your shares are held in an account with a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in a “street name” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy card from your broker, bank, or other nominee.

Can stockholders vote in person at the Annual Meeting?

The Company will pass out written ballots to anyone who wants to vote at the meeting. If you hold your shares through a brokerage account but do not have a physical share certificate, or the shares are registered in someone else’s name, you must request a legal proxy from your stockbroker or the registered owner to vote at the meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?

If you receive more than one proxy card, it likely means that you have multiple accounts with the transfer agent and/or with stockbrokers. Please vote all of the shares.

What if I share an address with another shareholder and we received only one copy of the proxy materials?

If certain requirements are met under relevant U.S. securities law, including in some circumstances the shareholder’s prior written consent, we are permitted to deliver one annual report and one proxy statement to a group of shareholders who share the same address. If you share an address with another shareholder and have received only one copy of the proxy materials, but desire another copy, please send written request to our offices at the address below

or call us at (604) 261-2229 to request another copy of the proxy materials. Please note that each shareholder should receive a separate proxy card to vote the shares they own.

BOARD COMMITTEES

Our Board of Directors has established four board committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee, and a Project Development, Environmental & Sustainability Committee.

The information below sets out the current members of each of Gryphon Gold’s board committees and summarizes the functions of each of the committees in accordance with their mandates.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Experts

Our Audit Committee has been structured to comply with Canadian Multilateral Instrument 52-110-Audit Committees (MI 52-110) and Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our Audit Committee is comprised of Chris Herald, Don Gentry and Rohan Hazelton, all of whom are independent directors under MI 52-110 and the audit committee rules of the American Stock Exchange. Rohan Hazelton is the Chairman of the Audit Committee. Both Rohan Hazelton and Chris Herald satisfy the criteria for an audit committee financial expert under Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B of the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Audit Committee meets with management and Gryphon Gold’s external auditors to review matters affecting financial reporting, the system of internal accounting and financial

controls and procedures and the audit procedures and audit plans. The Audit Committee reviews Gryphon Gold’s significant financial risks, will be involved in the appointment of senior financial executives and will annually review Gryphon Gold’s insurance coverage and any off-balance sheet transactions.

The Audit Committee is mandated to monitor Gryphon Gold’s audit and the preparation of financial statements and to review and recommend to the board of directors all financial disclosure contained in Gryphon Gold’s public documents. The Audit Committee is also mandated to appoint external auditors, monitor their qualifications and independence and determine the appropriate level of their remuneration. The external auditors report directly to the Audit Committee and to the board of directors. The Audit Committee and board of directors each have the authority to terminate the external auditor’s engagement (subject to confirmation by shareholders). The Audit Committee will also approve in advance any services to be provided by the external auditors which are not related to the audit.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, the Audit Committee met 4 times. A copy of the Audit Committee charter accompanies this proxy statement as Appendix B.

Report on Audited Financial Statements

Our Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management. Our Audit Committee discussed with our independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by SAS 61 and has received written disclosure and a letter from our independent auditor required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1. Based on the review and discussions, our Audit Committee recommended that the audited financial statements be included in the annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31, 2006.

Audit Committee Members
Chris Herald
Don Gentry
Rohan Hazelton

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is comprised of Richard Hughes, Chris Herald, and Rohan Hazelton, all of whom are independent directors. The Compensation Committee is responsible for considering and authorizing terms of employment and compensation of Directors, executive officers and providing advice on compensation structures in the various jurisdictions in which Gryphon Gold operates. In addition, the Compensation Committee reviews both the overall salary objectives of Gryphon Gold and significant modifications made to employee benefit plans, including those applicable to directors and executive officers, and proposes any awards of stock options, incentive and deferred compensation benefits.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, the Compensation Committee met 2 times.

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is comprised of Richard Hughes, Chris Herald, Don Gentry and Don Ranta. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for developing Gryphon Gold’s approach to corporate governance

issues and compliance with governance rules. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is also mandated to plan for the succession of Gryphon Gold, including recommending director candidates, review of board procedures, size and organization, and monitoring of senior management with respect to governance issues. The committee is responsible for the development and implementation of corporate communications to ensure the integrity of Gryphon Gold’s internal control and management information systems. The purview of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee also includes the administration of the board’s relationship with the management of Gryphon Gold, monitoring the quality and effectiveness of Gryphon Gold’s corporate governance system and ensuring the effectiveness and integrity of Gryphon Gold’s communication and reporting to shareholders and the public generally.

The Committee evaluates the qualifications of potential candidates for director and recommends to the Board nominees for election at the next annual meeting or any special meeting of stockholders, and any person to be considered to fill a Board vacancy resulting from death, disability, removal, resignation or an increase in Board size. The Committee has not set formal criteria necessary for the consideration of a candidate, but the Committee does assess the nominee’s independence, as well as considers his or her experience, areas of expertise, diversity, perspective, broad business judgment and leadership, all in the context of an assessment of the perceived needs of the Board at that time.

Shareholder nominees are subject to the same consideration as nominees selected by the Committee or the Board. The Committee does not have a set policy for whether or how shareholders are to recommend nominees for consideration by the Board. Outside of Allen Gordon and Albert Matter, who participate in the interaction of the Board and Nominating Committee in considering potential nominees to the Board, no shareholder or shareholders holding 5% or more of the Company’s outstanding stock, either individually or in aggregate, recommended a nominee for election to the Board.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee met 2 times. A copy of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee charter accompanies this proxy statement as Appendix C.

Project Development, Environmental & Sustainability Committee

The Project Development, Environmental & Sustainability Committee is comprised of Don Gentry, Don Ranta and Tony Ker. The committee is to review and provide technical and commercial guidance for major project development plans, ensure management has appropriate systems in place to plan, implement and track performance of project development. The Committee shall establish environmental policy, monitor compliance and audit our performance relative to policy. The Committee shall establish health and safety policies monitor compliance and audit our practices and actions. The Committee shall establish policy for involving communities of interest in the design and implementation of project development towards sustainable mining development.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Beginning in July 2005, independent board members who are not employed by us in any capacity other than as a director will be compensated for their services as follows:

•

For any Board or Committee meeting not requiring travel, such as a telephone conference call — a meeting fee of $250.

•

Any expenses, travel, administrative, telephone or other costs associated with a Board member’s fulfilling his or her duties as a Board member will be reimbursed by Gryphon Gold.

Previously, we had no standard arrangement pursuant to which directors were compensated for their services in their capacity as such. During our most recently completed financial year, directors did not receive any compensation from us in their capacity as directors of Gryphon Gold.

OTHER GOVERNANCE MATTERS

Code of Conduct

We adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics summarizes the legal, ethical and regulatory standards that we must follow and will serve as a reminder to our directors, officers and employees, of the seriousness of that commitment. Compliance with this code and high standards of business conduct is mandatory for each of our employees.

The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was filed with the SEC on February 10, 2006 as exhibit 14.1(2) to Form 10-QSB quarterly report for the quarter ending December 31, 2005. Further information and a copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on our website at www.gryphongold.com. Any future violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics will be reported on our website.

Compensation Interlocks and Insider Participation

There were no compensation committee or board interlocks among the members of our Board.

Legal Proceedings

Neither we nor any of our property are currently subject to any material legal proceedings or other regulatory proceedings. We do not currently know of any legal proceedings against us involving our Directors, executive officers, or stockholders of more than 5% of our voting stock.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 requires any person who is our Director or executive officer or who beneficially holds more than 10% of any class of our securities which have been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to file reports of initial ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These persons are also required under the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

To our knowledge, based solely on our review of the copies of the Section 16(a) reports furnished to us, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our Directors, executive officers and holders of more than 10% of any class of our registered securities were timely complied with during the year ended March 31, 2006.

Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) Grants

We adopted a Stock Option Plan during the year ended March 31, 2005 which continued into the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006. The plan permits the company to issue up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock to officers, directors, employees and consultants, in the form of options. The plan was approved by our shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders held on May 13, 2005. The Board recently authorized a new plan, the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Omnibus Plan”), which will authorize 3,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of restricted stock for issuance to officers, directors, employees and consultants. The Omnibus Plan is subject to shareholder approval at the next annual meeting, see Proposal 3 below.

The following table sets forth the stock options granted to our named executive officers and directors during the year ended March 31, 2006. No stock appreciation rights were awarded.

Stock Option Plan

Our Stock Option Plan provides that the total number of shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan shall not exceed 3,000,000 shares of common stock. However, the board of directors has approved the Omnibus Plan, which will allow for the issuance of 3,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 Restricted Stock Units. The proposed Omnibus Plan is subject to stockholder approval at the next annual meeting of the stockholders, see Proposal 3.

The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, and has full and final authority with respect to the granting of options there under. Options may be granted under the Stock Option Plan to such directors, officers, employees or consultants of Gryphon Gold and its subsidiaries as the Compensation Committee may from time to time designate (referred to as a “participant”). Each option will generally entitle a participant to purchase one share of common stock during the term of the option upon payment of the exercise price. The exercise price of any options granted under the Stock Option Plan shall be determined by the Compensation Committee and may not be less than the market price of our common stock on the date of grant of the options (calculated in accordance with the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange as the volume weighted average trading price for the five trading days preceding the date of grant). Gryphon Gold may provide financial assistance to eligible persons to purchase shares of common stock under the Stock Option Plan, subject to applicable law and the rules and policies of any securities regulatory authority or stock exchange with jurisdiction over the Corporation or a trade in its securities. Any financial assistance so provided will be repayable with full recourse and the term of any such financing shall not exceed the term of the option to which the financing applies.

The term of any options granted shall be determined by the Compensation Committee at the time of the grant but the term of any options granted under the Stock Option Plan shall not exceed ten years. If desired by the Compensation Committee, options granted under the Stock Option Plan may be subject to vesting provisions. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan are not transferable or assignable other than by will or otherwise by operation of law. In the event of death or disability of an option holder, options granted under the Stock Option Plan expire one year from the death or disability of the option holder.

Certain restrictions contained in the Stock Option Plan include:

•

the number of shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan (or any other employee-related plan or options for service) to any one person may not exceed 5% of all the common shares issued and outstanding on a non-diluted basis from time to time; and

•

the number of shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan (or any other employee-related plan or options for services) to insiders (as defined in the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange to include generally directors, senior officers of Gryphon Gold or its subsidiaries or shareholders who own more than 10% of our common stock) during any twelve month period may not exceed 10% of the common stock issued and outstanding on a non-diluted basis from time to time (unless approval of disinterested shareholders has been obtained in accordance with the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange).

•

the number of shares of common stock which may be reserved for issuance in respect of options granted to insiders pursuant to the Stock Option Plan (or any other employee-related plan or options for service) may not exceed 10% of the common stock issued and outstanding on a non-diluted basis from time to time unless approval of disinterested shareholders has been obtained in accordance with the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange).

Gryphon Gold’s board of directors may at any time terminate or amend the Stock Option Plan in any respect, provided however, that the board may not, without the approval of the shareholders, amend the Stock Option Plan or any option granted thereunder in any manner that requires shareholder approval under applicable law or the rules and policies of any stock exchange or quotation system upon which the common shares are listed or quoted.

2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan

As described above, the Board has adopted the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Omnibus Plan will authorize 3,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of restricted stock for issuance to officers, directors, employees and consultants. The Omnibus Plan is subject to shareholder approval at the next annual meeting, see Proposal 3 below. For a description of the Omnibus Plan see pages 34-42 below.

PROPOSAL 2 — RATIFICATION OF THE
AMENDMENT TO THE BY-LAWS

What am I voting on?

You are voting on a proposal to ratify the Company’s Amended and Restated By-laws as adopted by the Board on November 9, 2005. The Board adopted the proposed amendments at a meeting of the Board and made all changes subject to shareholder approval at the next annual meeting. As explained below, the amendments change the Company’s principal office, removes the default date of the annual meeting (leaving the date to the determination of the Board), lowers quorum requirements at meetings of the stockholders, states authorized consideration for shares, and alters required share certificate information.

Why did the Board adopt the By-laws Amendment?

The Board determined that is was in the best interests of the Company and the stockholders for the Company to amend the By-laws to reflect the Company’s new business address, allow greater flexibility in the annual meeting of the stockholders and greater efficiency in the issuance of share certificates.

What will the articles of incorporation provide if the By-laws Amendment is ratified?

Section 1.1 which previously read: “PRINCIPLE OFFICE. The principal office of GRYPHON GOLD CORPORATION (the “Corporation”) shall be located at 32509 El Diente Court, Evergreen Colorado 80439.”

Now reads: “PRINCIPAL OFFICE. The principal office of GRYPHON GOLD CORPORATION (the “Corporation”) shall be located at 390 Union Blvd., Suite 360, Lakewood, Colorado 80228.”

Section 2.1 which previously read: “ANNUAL MEETINGS. Annual meetings of the stockholders shall be held each year on a date and time designated by the Board of Directors. In the absence of such designation , the annual meeting shall be held on the second Tuesday of April each year at 10:00 a.m. At the annual meeting, the stockholders shall elect by vote a Board of Directors and transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.”

Now reads: “ANNUAL MEETINGS. Annual meetings of the stockholders shall be held each year on a date and time designated by the Board of Directors that is no later than six (6) months following the Corporation’s fiscal year end. At the annual meeting, the stockholders shall elect by vote a Board of Directors and transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.”

Section 2.6 which previously read, in relevant part: “QUORUM. The holders of a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Articles of Incorporation.”

Now reads: “QUORUM. The holders of one third (1/3) of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Articles of Incorporation.”

Section 8.1 which previously read: “CERTIFICATION. Every stockholder shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by the President and the Secretary of the Corporation, certifying the number of shares owned by him, her or it in the Corporation. If the Corporation shall be authorized to issue more than one (1) class of stock or more than one (1) series of any class, the designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights of the various classes of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such rights, shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate which the Corporation shall issue to represent such stock.”

Now reads: “CERTIFICATION. Every stockholder shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by any two officers of the Corporation, certifying the number of shares owned by him, her, or it in the Corporation.”

Previous 8.2 has been renumbered section 8.3 will all subsequent section in Article VIII being renumbered accordingly.

New section 8.2 reads: “CONSIDERATION FOR SHARES. The Board of Directors may authorize shares to be issued for consideration consisting of any tangible or intangible property or benefit to the Corporation including cash, services performed or other securities of the Corporation, except that neither promissory notes nor future services constitute valid consideration. When the Corporation receives the consideration for which the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of shares, the shares issued for the consideration shall be fully paid and nonassessable.”

The Amended and Restated By-Laws of the Company are attached as Appendix D.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the By-laws Amendment.

PROPOSAL 3 — RATIFICATION OF
THE 2006 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

What am I voting on?

The Company has approved a new incentive plan in order to attract and retain key persons who perform valuable services for the Company. The new plan is the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”).

The Board determined that is was in the best interests of the Company and the stockholders for the Company to write a new plan for stock and option awards. As part of the requirements for listing with the Toronto Stock Exchange, the Omnibus Plan must be approved by the Company’s stockholders.

This proposal is to ratify the Omnibus Plan as approved by the Board.

What are the general provisions of the Omnibus Plan?

The information provided below may be modified or altered by some provisions in the Omnibus Plan. Readers are advised to review the full text of the Omnibus Plan to fully understand all terms and conditions of the Omnibus Plan. A copy of the Omnibus Plan is attached hereto as Appendix E.

Any employee, officer, director, consultant, independent contractor, or director of or providing services to the Company or any parent, affiliate, or subsidiary of the Company is eligible to designated a participant in the Omnibus Plan. However, stock option grants may only be granted to full- or part-time employees, officers, or directors of the Company or one of its subsidiaries.

Administration
The Omnibus Plan is administered by the Company’s Compensation Committee, or such other committee as the Board may assign administrative responsibility in the best interests of the Company. The administering committee (the “Committee”) has the power to: (i) designate Omnibus Plan participants; (ii) determine the type or types of awards to be granted to participants under the Omnibus Plan; (iii) determine the number of shares to be covered by each award; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any award or award agreement; (v) amend the terms and conditions of any award or award agreement and accelerated the exercisability of any option or waive any restrictions relating to any award; (vi) determine whether and to what extent, and under what circumstances, awards may be exercised in cash, shares of the Company, promissory notes (which don’t conflict with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act), other securities, or other

property, or may be canceled, forfeited, or suspended; (vii) interpret and administer the Omnibus Plan and any awards or award agreements thereunder; (viii) establish, amend, suspend, or waive such rules and regulations and appoint such agents as it deems appropriate to administer the Omnibus Plan; (ix) make any other determination or take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable to the administration of the Omnibus Plan.

Shares Available under the Omnibus Plan
The aggregate number of shares available to be issued under the Omnibus Plan is 4,000,000 shares of common stock. Of the aggregate total, the number of shares available for granting incentive stock options is 3,000,000 and the number of shares available for restricted stock grants is 1,000,000—both subject to adjustment under the Omnibus Plan’s anti-dilution provisions.

Limitations on Awards to Insiders
Awards in any form to Company insiders (generally, directors, officers, and 10% shareholders) are limited under the Omnibus Plan. No award shall be granted under the Omnibus Plan which may result in the aggregate number of common shares of the Company issued to insiders pursuant to the terms of awards previously granted within any one-year period, and issuable to insiders, at any time under the Omnibus Plan or any other security based compensation arrangement of the Company exceeding 10% of the common shares of the Company issued and outstanding at the relevant time. In addition, no award may be granted under the Omnibus Plan which may result in the aggregate number of common shares issuable to any insider at any time under the Omnibus Plan or any other security based compensation plan arrangement of the Company exceeding 5% of the common shares of the Company issued and outstanding at the relevant time.

Options
The exercise price of options granted under the Omnibus Plan is determined by the Committee provided that the exercise price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of the grant.

The term of each option shall be fixed by the Committee at the time of the grant, but may not exceed 10 years. The Committee also determines the vesting schedule of options and the method in which payment of the exercise price may be made.

Incentive stock options granted under the Omnibus Plan and exercisable for the first time by any participant during any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 in aggregate fair market value. Incentive stock options granted under the Omnibus Plan terminate no later than 10 years after the date of grant, except incentive stock options granted to 10% shareholders terminate 5 years after the date of grant. Incentive stock options must have an exercise price of at least 100% of the fair market value, but incentive stock options granted to 10% shareholders will have an exercise price of at least 110% of the fair market value.

“Fair market value” is defined under the Omnibus Plan to mean fair market value of such property determined by such methods or procedures as shall be established from time to time by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Fair market value of a share as of a given date shall be, if the shares are then listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average trading price of one share as reported on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the five trading days immediately preceding such date.

Stock Appreciation Rights
The Committee is authorized to grant Stock Appreciation Rights to eligible persons subject to the terms of the Omnibus Plan. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Omnibus Plan shall confer on the holder upon exercise the right to receive, as determined by the Committee, cash or a number of Shares equal to the excess of (a) the fair market value of one share on the date of exercise (or, if the Committee shall so determine, at any time during a specified period before or after the date of exercise) over (b) the grant price of the Stock Appreciation Right as determined by the Committee, which grant price shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of one share on the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation Right.

Options may not be converted into Stock Appreciation Rights, except at the discretion of the Committee which has the power to substitute any award granted under the Omnibus for any other award available under the Omnibus Plan, subject to and pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Plan.

Restricted Stock
The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock to eligible persons under the Omnibus Plan. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, without limitation, a restriction on or prohibition against the right to receive any dividend or other right or property with respect thereto), which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise as the Committee may deem appropriate.

Restricted Stock Units
The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units to eligible persons under the Omnibus Plan. A Restricted Stock Unit award will be subject to a Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement containing such terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Omnibus Plan, as the Committee determines.

Performance Awards
The Committee is authorized to grant Performance Awards to eligible persons subject to the terms of the Omnibus Plan. A Performance Award granted under the Omnibus Plan (i) may be denominated or payable in cash, shares (including, without limitation, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units), other securities, other Awards or other property and (ii) shall confer on the holder thereof the right to receive payments, in whole or in part, upon the achievement of such performance goals during such performance periods as the Committee shall establish. Subject to the terms of the Omnibus Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any Performance Award granted, the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award and any other terms and conditions of any Performance Award shall be determined by the Committee.

Other Stock Grants
The Committee is authorized, subject to the terms of the Omnibus Plan, to grant to eligible persons shares without restrictions thereon as are deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purpose of the Omnibus Plan.

Forms of Payment under Awards
Subject to the terms of the Omnibus Plan, payments or transfers to be made by the Company or an Affiliate upon the grant, exercise or payment of an Award may be made in such form or forms as the Committee shall determine (including, without limitation, cash, Shares, promissory notes provided, however, that the acceptance of such promissory notes does not conflict with Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, other securities, other Awards or other property or any combination thereof), and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments or on a deferred basis, in each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures may include, without limitation, provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of Dividend Equivalents with respect to installment or deferred payments.

Limits on Transfer of Awards
No Award (other than Other Stock Grants) and no right under any such Award shall be transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and the Company is not be required to recognize any attempted assignment of such rights by any Participant; provided, however, that, if so determined by the Committee, a Participant may, in the manner established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise the rights of the Participant and receive any property distributable with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant; provided, further, that, if so determined by the Committee, a Participant may transfer a Non-Qualified Stock Option to any Family Member (as such term is defined in the General Instructions to Form S-8 or successor to such Instructions or such Form) at any time that such Participant holds such Option, provided that the Participant may not receive any consideration for such transfer, the Family Member may not make any subsequent transfers other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and the Company receives written notice of such transfer, provided, further, that, if so determined by the Committee, and except in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, Awards may be transferable as determined by the Committee. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee (for awards other than an Incentive Stock Option), each Award or right under any such Award is exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee (for Awards other than an Incentive Stock Option), no Award or right under any such Award may be pledged, alienated, attached or otherwise encumbered, and any purported pledge, alienation, attachment or other encumbrance thereof is void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate.

What are the tax consequences of the Omnibus Plan?

The following is a summary of the principal U.S. federal income tax consequences generally applicable to Awards under the Omnibus Plan.

Options and SARs. The grant of an Option or SAR should not result in any taxable income for the recipient. The holder of an ISO generally will have no taxable income upon exercising the ISO (except that an alternative minimum tax liability may result), and the Company will not be entitled to a tax deduction when an ISO is exercised. Upon exercising a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the optionholder must recognize ordinary income equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of Company common stock acquired on the date of exercise over the exercise price, and the Company will be entitled at that time to a tax deduction for the same amount. Upon the exercise of an SAR, the amount of any cash received and the fair market value on the exercise date of any shares of Company common stock received are taxable to the recipient as ordinary income, and are deductible by the Company.

The tax consequence to an optionholder upon a disposition of shares of Company common stock acquired through the exercise of an Option will depend on how long the shares have been held and whether the shares were acquired by exercising an ISO or by exercising a

Non-Qualified Stock Option or SAR. Generally, there will be no tax consequences to the Company in connection with the disposition of shares acquired pursuant to an Option. However, the Company may be entitled to a tax deduction in the case of a disposition of shares acquired pursuant to an ISO before the applicable ISO holding periods set forth in the Code have been satisfied.

Other Awards. For other Awards granted under the Omnibus Plan that are payable in cash or shares of Company common stock and that are either transferable or not subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, the holder of such an Award must recognize ordinary income equal to the excess of (a) the cash or the fair market value of the shares of Company common stock received (determined as of the date of such receipt) over (b) the amount (if any) paid for the shares of Company common stock by the holder of the Award. The Company will be entitled at that time to a deduction for the same amount if and to the extent that amount satisfies general rules concerning deductibility of compensation.

For an Award that is payable in shares of Company common stock that are restricted as to transferability and subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, unless a special election is made pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, the holder of the Award must recognize ordinary income equal to the excess of (x) the fair market value of the shares of Company common stock received (determined as of the first time the shares became transferable or not subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, whichever occurs earlier) over (y) the amount (if any) paid for the shares of Company common stock by the holder. The Company will be entitled at that time to a tax deduction for the same amount if and to the extent that amount satisfies general rules concerning deductibility.

Special Rules. Special rules may apply in the case of individuals subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. In particular, unless a special election is made pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, shares of Company common stock received pursuant to the exercise of an Option or SAR may be treated as restricted as to transferability and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture for a period of up to six months after the date of exercise. Accordingly, the amount of any ordinary income recognized, and the amount of the Company’s tax deduction, may be determined as of the end of such period.

Deductibility of Executive Compensation Under Code Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Code generally limits to $1,000,000 the amount that a publicly-held corporation is allowed each year to deduct for the compensation paid to each of the corporation’s chief executive officer and the corporation’s other four most highly compensated executive officers. However, “qualified performance-based qualified compensation” is not subject to the $1,000,000 deduction limit. In general, to qualify as performance-based compensation, the following requirements need to be satisfied: (1) payments must be computed on the basis of an objective, performance-based compensation standard determined by a committee consisting solely of two or more “outside directors,” (2) the material terms under which the compensation is to be paid, including the business criteria upon which the performance goals are based, and a limit on the maximum bonus amount which may be paid to any participant pursuant with respect to any performance period, must be approved by a majority of the corporation’s shareholders and (3) the committee must certify that the applicable performance goals were satisfied before payment of any performance-based compensation.

The Omnibus Plan has been designed to permit grants of Options and SARs issued under the Omnibus Plan to qualify under the performance-based compensation rules so that income attributable to the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option or an SAR may be exempt from $1,000,000 deduction limit. Grants of other Awards under the Omnibus Plan may not so qualify

for this exemption. The Omnibus Plan’s provisions are consistent in form with the performance-based compensation rules, so that if the committee that grants Options or SARs consists exclusively of members of the board of directors of the Company who qualify as “outside directors,” and the exercise price (or deemed exercise price, with respect to SARs) is not less than the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock to which such grants relate, the compensation income arising on exercise of those Options or SARs should qualify as performance-based compensation which is deductible even if that income would be in excess of the otherwise applicable limits on deductible compensation income under Code Section 162(m).

During the two most recent fiscal years and the interim period preceding such dismissal, we are not aware of any disagreements with our former accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of our former accountant, would have caused it to make references to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its report.

1) The application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to us that we considered an important factor in reaching a decision as to the accounting or financial reporting issue; or

2) Any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or event (reportable under Regulation S-B, Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B)).

Shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, without limitation, a restriction on or prohibition against the right to receive any dividend or other right or property with respect thereto), which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise as the Committee may deem appropriate.

(ii) Stock Certificates. Any Restricted Stock granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by the issuance of a stock certificate or certificates, which shall be held by the Company. Such certificate or certificates shall be registered in the name of the Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the applicable Award Agreement and possible forfeiture of such shares of Restricted Stock.

(iii) Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, upon a Participant’s termination of employment (as determined under criteria established by the Committee) during the applicable restriction period, all applicable Shares of Restricted Stock at such time subject to restriction shall be forfeited and reacquired by the Company; provided, however, that the Committee may, when it finds that a waiver would be in the best interest of the Company, waive in whole or in part any or all remaining restrictions with respect to Shares of Restricted Stock.

(d) Restricted Stock Unit Awards. The Committee is hereby authorized to grant Restricted Stock Unit Awards to Eligible Persons evidencing the right in such Eligible Person to receive a Share (or cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share) at some future date.

(ii) Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee and as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, upon a Participant’s termination of employment (as determined under criteria established by the Committee) during the applicable restriction period, all applicable Restricted Stock Units at such time subject to restriction shall be forfeited and reacquired by the Company; provided, however, that the

E-8

Committee may, when it finds that a waiver would be in the best interest of the Company, waive in whole or in part any or all remaining restrictions with respect to Restricted Stock Units.

(e) Performance Awards. The Committee is hereby authorized to grant Performance Awards to Eligible Persons subject to the terms of the Plan. A Performance Award granted under the Plan (i) may be denominated or payable in cash, Shares (including, without limitation, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units), other securities, other Awards or other property and (ii) shall confer on the holder thereof the right to receive payments, in whole or in part, upon the achievement of such performance goals during such performance periods as the Committee shall establish. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any Performance Award granted, the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award and any other terms and conditions of any Performance Award shall be determined by the Committee. From time to time, the Committee may designate an Award granted pursuant to the Plan as an award of “qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code (a “Qualified Performance Based Award”), and such awards shall comply with the following requirements.

(i) Performance Goals; Timing of Designations. Qualified Performance Based Awards shall, to the extent required by Section 162(m), be conditioned solely on the achievement of one or more objective performance goals, and such performance goals shall be established by the Committee within the time period prescribed by, and shall otherwise comply with the requirements of, Section 162(m) (“Performance Goals”). The Committee shall, not later than 90 days after the beginning of each performance period, (A) designate all Participants for such performance period, and (B) establish the objective Performance Goals for each Participant for that performance period on the basis of one or more of the business criteria set forth in (ii) below.

(ii) Business Criteria. Unless and until the Committee proposes for stockholder approval and the Company’s stockholders approve a change in the general business criteria set forth in this section, the attainment of which may determine the amount and/or vesting with respect to Qualified Performance Based Awards, the business criteria to be used for purposes of establishing Performance Goals for Qualified Performance Based Awards shall be selected from the following alternatives. Performance goals may be based upon based upon one or more of the following business criteria, either individually, alternatively or in any combination, applied on a corporate, subsidiary or business unit basis: revenue, cash flow, gross profit, earnings before interest and taxes, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and net earnings, earnings per share, margins (including one or more of gross, operating and net income margins), returns (including one or more of return on assets, equity, investment, capital and revenue and total stockholder return), stock price, economic value added, working capital, market share, cost reductions, workforce satisfaction and diversity goals, employee retention, customer satisfaction, completion of key projects and strategic plan development and implementation. Such Performance Goals may reflect absolute entity

E-9

or business unit performance or a relative comparison to the performance of a peer group of entities or other external measure of the selected performance criteria. Pursuant to rules and conditions adopted by the Committee on or before the 90th day of the applicable performance period for which Performance Goals are established, the Committee may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under such goals to exclude the effect of certain events, including any of the following events: asset write-downs; litigation or claim judgments or settlements; changes in tax law, accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results; severance, contract termination and other costs related to exiting certain business activities; and gains or losses from the disposition of businesses or assets or from the early extinguishment of debt.

(iii) Payment of Qualified Performance Based Awards. Qualified Performance Based Awards shall be paid as soon as administratively practical following the conclusion of the applicable performance period. The Committee shall certify in writing that Performance Goals have been met prior to payment of the Qualified Performance Based Awards to the extent required by Section 162(m). The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of a payout otherwise to be made in connection with a Qualified Performance Based Award, but may not exercise discretion to increase such amount.

(iv) Certain Events. If a Participant dies or becomes permanently and totally disabled before the end of a performance period or after the performance period and before a Qualified Performance Based Award is paid, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine that the Participant shall be paid a pro rated portion of the award that the Participant would have received but for such death or disability.

(v) Stockholder Approval of Plan. Any Qualified Performance Based Award shall be null and void and have no effect whatsoever unless the Plan shall have been approved by the stockholders of the Company at the Company’s 2006 annual meeting of stockholders. No Qualified Performance Based Award shall be granted more than five years after the date of such meeting of stockholders unless the stockholders have re-approved the Plan to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code.

(vi) Interpretation. The provisions in this Section 6(d), and all of the other terms and conditions of the Plan as it applies to any Qualified Performance Based Award, shall be interpreted in such a fashion as to qualify all compensation paid thereunder as “qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

(f) Other Stock Grants. The Committee is hereby authorized, subject to the terms of the Plan, to grant to Eligible Persons Shares without restrictions thereon as are deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purpose of the Plan.

E-10

(g) Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is hereby authorized to grant to Eligible Persons, subject to the terms of the Plan, such other Awards that are denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, Shares (including, without limitation, securities convertible into Shares), as are deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purpose of the Plan. Shares or other securities delivered pursuant to a purchase right granted under this Section 6(g) shall be purchased for such consideration, which may be paid by such method or methods and in such form or forms (including, without limitation, cash, Shares, promissory notes provided, however, that the acceptance such promissory notes does not conflict with Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, other securities, other Awards or other property or any combination thereof), as the Committee shall determine, the value of which consideration, as established by the Committee, shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of such Shares or other securities as of the date such purchase right is granted.

(h) General.

(i) Consideration for Awards. Awards may be granted for no cash consideration or for any cash or other consideration as determined by the Committee and required by applicable law.

(ii) Awards May Be Granted Separately or Together. Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with or in substitution for any other Award or any award granted under any plan of the Company or any Affiliate. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards or in addition to or in tandem with awards granted under any such other plan of the Company or any Affiliate may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards or awards.

(iii) Forms of Payment under Awards. Subject to the terms of the Plan, payments or transfers to be made by the Company or an Affiliate upon the grant, exercise or payment of an Award may be made in such form or forms as the Committee shall determine (including, without limitation, cash, Shares, promissory notes provided, however, that the acceptance of such promissory notes does not conflict with Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, other securities, other Awards or other property or any combination thereof), and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments or on a deferred basis, in each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures may include, without limitation, provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of Dividend Equivalents with respect to installment or deferred payments.

(iv) Limits on Transfer of Awards. No Award (other than Other Stock Grants) and no right under any such Award shall be transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and the Company shall not be required to recognize any attempted assignment of such rights by any Participant; provided,

E-11

however, that, if so determined by the Committee, a Participant may, in the manner established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise the rights of the Participant and receive any property distributable with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant; provided, further, that, if so determined by the Committee, a Participant may transfer a Non-Qualified Stock Option to any Family Member (as such term is defined in the General Instructions to Form S-8 or successor to such Instructions or such Form) at any time that such Participant holds such Option, provided that the Participant may not receive any consideration for such transfer, the Family Member may not make any subsequent transfers other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and the Company receives written notice of such transfer, provided, further, that, if so determined by the Committee, and except in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, Awards may be transferable as determined by the Committee. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee (for awards other than an Incentive Stock Option), each Award or right under any such Award shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee (for Award s other than an Incentive Stock Option), no Award or right under any such Award may be pledged, alienated, attached or otherwise encumbered, and any purported pledge, alienation, attachment or other encumbrance thereof shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate.

(v) Term of Awards. Subject to Section 6(a)(iv)(C), the term of each Award shall be for such period as may be determined by the Committee.

(vi) Restrictions; Securities Exchange Listing. All Shares or other securities delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan, applicable federal or state securities laws and regulatory requirements, and applicable Canadian and provincial law,and the Committee may direct appropriate stop transfer orders and cause other legends to be placed on the certificates for such Shares or other securities to reflect such restrictions. If the Shares or other securities are traded on a securities exchange, the Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares or other securities covered by an Award unless and until such Shares or other securities have been admitted for trading on such securities exchange.

(vii) Prohibition on Option Repricing. Except as provided in Section 4(c) hereof, no Option may be amended to reduce its initial exercise price and no Option shall be canceled and replaced with an Option or Options having a lower exercise price, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company or unless there would be no material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements as prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

(i) Additional Conditions in Connection with Awards Granted to Participants Employed in Canada. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the following additional terms, conditions and restrictions apply to Awards granted to Participants employed in Canada:

E-12

(i) Options.

(A) Payment by the Participant of the exercise price with respect to an Option may not be made in Shares.

(ii) Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall be settled in Shares, unless the Company offers the Participant the right to receive cash in lieu of Shares and the Participant, in its sole discretion, so elects.

(iii) Restricted Stock. Participants employed in Canada are not eligible to receive a grant of Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Plan.

(iv) Other Awards. With respect to any other Award granted to a Participant employed in Canada, the Committee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take account of Canadian income tax considerations in determining the terms and conditions of the Award or any other amendment thereto.

Section 7. Amendment and Termination; Adjustments

(a) Amendments to and Discontinuance of the Plan.

(b) Correction of Defects, Omissions and Inconsistencies. The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect.

Section 8. Income Tax Withholding

In order to comply with all applicable federal, state or local income tax laws or regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems appropriate to ensure that all applicable federal, state or local payroll, withholding, income or other taxes, which are the sole and absolute responsibility of a Participant, are withheld or collected from such Participant. In order to assist a Participant in paying all or a portion of the federal, state and local taxes to be withheld or collected upon exercise or receipt of (or the lapse of restrictions relating to) an Award, the Committee, in its discretion and subject to such additional terms and conditions as it may adopt, may permit the Participant to satisfy such tax obligation by (i) electing to have the Company withhold a portion of the Shares otherwise to be delivered upon exercise or receipt of (or the lapse of restrictions relating to) such Award with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such taxes or (ii) delivering to the Company Shares other than Shares issuable upon exercise or receipt of (or the lapse of restrictions relating to) such Award with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such taxes. The election, if any, must be made on or before the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.

Section 9. General Provisions

(a) No Rights to Awards. No Eligible Person or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Eligible Persons or holders or beneficiaries of Awards under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to any Participant or with respect to different Participants.

(b) Award Agreements. No Participant will have rights under an Award granted to such Participant unless and until an Award Agreement shall have been duly executed on behalf of the Company and, if requested by the Company, signed by the Participant.

(c) Plan Provisions Control. In the event that any provision of an Award Agreement conflicts with or is inconsistent in any respect with the terms of the Plan as set forth herein or subsequently amended, the terms of the Plan shall control.

(d) No Rights of Stockholders. Except with respect to Shares of Restricted Stock as to which the Participant has been granted the right to vote, neither a Participant nor the Participant’s

E-15

legal representative shall be, or have any of the rights and privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Shares issuable to such Participant upon the exercise or payment of any Award, in whole or in part, unless and until such Shares have been issued in the name of such Participant or such Participant’s legal representative without restrictions thereto.

(e) No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or any Affiliate from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

(f) No Right to Employment. The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ, or as giving a director of the Company or an Affiliate the right to continue as a director or an Affiliate of the Company or any Affiliate, nor will it affect in any way the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate such employment at any time, with or without cause. In addition, the Company or an Affiliate may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment, or terminate the term of a director of the Company or an Affiliate, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan or any Award, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any Award Agreement. Nothing in this Plan shall confer on any person any legal or equitable right against the Company or any Affiliate, directly or indirectly, or give rise to any cause of action at law or in equity against the Company or an Affiliate. The Awards granted hereunder shall not form any part of the wages or salary of any Eligible Person for purposes of severance pay or termination indemnities, irrespective of the reason for termination of employment. Under no circumstances shall any person ceasing to be an employee of the Company or any Affiliate be entitled to any compensation for any loss of any right or benefit under the Plan which such employee might otherwise have enjoyed but for termination of employment, whether such compensation is claimed by way of damages for wrongful or unfair dismissal, breach of contract or otherwise. By participating in the Plan, each Participant shall be deemed to have accepted all the conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of any rules and regulations adopted by the Committee and shall be fully bound thereby.

(g) Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan or any Award, and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan or any Award, shall be determined in accordance with the internal laws, and not the law of conflicts, of the State of Nevada.

(h) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the purpose or intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction or Award, and the remainder of the Plan or any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.

(i) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the

E-16

Company or any Affiliate and an Eligible Person or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate.

(j) Other Benefits. No compensation or benefit awarded to or realized by any Participant under the Plan shall be included for the purpose of computing such Participant’s compensation under any compensation-based retirement, disability, or similar plan of the Company unless required by law or otherwise provided by such other plan.

(k) No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall determine whether cash shall be paid in lieu of any fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.

(l) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Plan or any provision thereof.

(m) Section 16 Compliance; Section 162(m) Administration. The Plan is intended to comply in all respects with Rule 16b-3 or any successor provision, as in effect from time to time, and in all events the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the requirements of Rule 16b-3. If any Plan provision does not comply with Rule 16b-3 as hereafter amended or interpreted, the provision shall be deemed inoperative. The Board of Directors, in its absolute discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict, limit or condition the use of any provision of the Plan with respect to persons who are officers or directors subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act without so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other Eligible Persons. With respect to Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, and Qualified Performance Based Awards, the Company intends to have the Plan administered in accordance with the requirements for the award of “qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

(n) Conditions Precedent to Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise or payment of the purchase price relating to an Award unless such exercise or payment and the issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the requirements of any applicable Stock Exchange, applicable Nevada general corporation law, and applicable Canadian and provincial law. As a condition to the exercise or payment of the purchase price relating to such Award, the Company may require that the person exercising or paying the purchase price represent and warrant that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation and warranty is required by law.

E-17

Section 10. Effective Date of the Plan

The Plan shall be effective upon its adoption by the Board, provided, however, that in the event the Plan is not approved by the stockholders of the Company within one year thereafter, the Plan will be terminated and all Awards granted under the Plan will be terminated and deemed null and void, provided, however, that with respect to any Shares (including Shares of Restricted Stock) issued under the Plan prior to such termination, the Plan shall be deemed to be effective.

Section 11. Term of the Plan

No Award shall be granted under the Plan after ten years from earlier of date of adoption of Plan by Board or date of stockholder approval or any earlier date of discontinuation or termination established pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Plan. However, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award theretofore granted may extend beyond such date, and the authority of the Committee provided for hereunder with respect to the Plan and any Awards, and the authority of the Board to amend the Plan, shall extend beyond the termination of the Plan.

This Plan was adopted by the Board on ____________________________________.

This Plan was approved by shareholders on _________________________________.
