STOCK BASED COMPENSATION [Text Block] |
Effective May 31, 2013, the Company adopted an incentive stock option plan (the “2013 Plan”), which replaces the stock option and stock bonus plans that were in place prior to adoption of the 2013 Plan. All outstanding options to purchase Common Shares granted by the Company under the prior plans are now governed by the 2013 Plan and the prior plans (an Incentive Stock Option Plan, a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, and a Stock Bonus Plan) have been terminated. The purpose of this Plan is to authorize the grant to Eligible Persons of the Company of Options to purchase Shares and thus benefit the Company by enabling it to attract, retain and motivate Eligible Persons by providing them with the opportunity, through Options, to acquire an increased proprietary interest in the Company. The maximum number of Shares which may be reserved for issuance to any one Consultant under the Plan, any other employer stock options plans or options for services, within any 12 -month period, shall be 2% of the Shares issued and outstanding at the time of the grant (on a non-diluted basis). The maximum number of Shares which may be reserved for issuance to Investor Relations Optionees under the Plan, any other employer stock options plans or options for services, within any 12 -month period shall be 2% of the Shares issued and outstanding at the time of the grant (on a non-diluted basis). The maximum number of Shares which may be reserved for issuance to insiders of the Company in any 12 -month period shall be 10% of the Shares issued and outstanding at the start of such 12 -month period (on a non-diluted basis). The purchase price (the “Price”) for the Shares under each Option shall be determined by the Board of Directors or Committee, as applicable, on the basis of the market price, where “market price” shall mean the prior trading day closing price of the Shares on any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed or last trading price on the prior trading day on any dealing network where the Shares trade, and where there is no such closing price or trade on the prior trading day, “market price” shall mean the average of the daily high and low board lot trading prices of the Shares on any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed or dealing network on which the Shares trade for the five (5) immediately preceding trading days. In the event the Shares are listed on the TSXV, the price may be the market price less any discounts from the market price allowed by the TSXV, subject to a minimum price of CDN$0.10.
