Dear Mesdame:

Based on and subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement (as defined herein), ATB Securities Inc. (the "Lead Underwriter") and A.G.P. Canada Investments ULC (collectively with the Lead Underwriter, the "Underwriters") hereby offer to purchase on an underwritten basis, severally and not jointly, in their respective proportions set out in Section 16 of this Agreement, from Organigram Holdings Inc. (the "Corporation"), and the Corporation hereby agrees to sell to the Underwriters on the Closing Date (as defined herein), 7,740,000 units of the Corporation (the "Offered Units"), at a price of $3.23 per Offered Unit (the "Offering Price"), for aggregate gross proceeds to the Corporation of $25,000,200. Each Offered Unit shall consist of one Common Share (as defined herein) (each a "Unit Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). The Warrants will be issued on the Closing Date pursuant to a warrant indenture to be dated as of the Closing Date between TSX Trust Company (the "Warrant Agent") and the Corporation (the "Warrant Indenture"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at a price of $3.65 until the date that is 48 months following the Closing Date.

In addition, the Corporation hereby grants an option (the "Over-Allotment Option") to the Underwriters entitling the Underwriters to purchase from the Corporation, on and subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, in whole or in part at any time, until 11:59 p.m. (Toronto time) on the 30th day following the Closing Date, up to 1,161,000 additional Offered Units (the "Additional Units") at the Offering Price for additional gross proceeds of up to $3,750,030. If the Lead Underwriter, on behalf of the Underwriters, elects to exercise such Over-Allotment Option, in whole or in part, the Lead Underwriter shall notify the Corporation in writing, which notice shall specify the number of Additional Units to be purchased by the Underwriters and the date or dates (each, an "Option Closing Date") on which such securities are to be purchased. The Option Closing Date may be the same as the Closing Date but not earlier than the later of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) two Business Days (as defined herein) after the date of receipt by the Corporation of such notice. Additional Units may be purchased solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments and for market stabilization purposes. If any Additional Units are purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the percentage of such securities equal to the percentage set out opposite the name of such Underwriter in Section 16 of this Agreement.

Unless otherwise specifically referenced or unless the context otherwise requires, the Offered Units and the Additional Units are collectively referred to herein as the "Offered Securities", all references to "Offered Units" herein shall include the Additional Units, all references to "Unit Shares" herein shall include the Common Shares comprising the Additional Units, all references to "Warrants" herein shall include the Warrants comprising the Additional Units and the offering of the Offered Securities by the Corporation is hereinafter referred to as the "Offering".

The Corporation has prepared and filed with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of Canada (the "Canadian Securities Regulators") a preliminary short form base shelf prospectus dated September 25, 2023 (together with the documents incorporated by reference therein and any supplements or amendments thereto, the "Canadian Preliminary Base Shelf Prospectus") and a (final) short form base shelf prospectus dated October 6, 2023 (together with the documents incorporated by reference therein and any supplements or amendments thereto, the "Canadian Final Base Shelf Prospectus") in respect of the offering of Common Shares, debt securities, subscription receipts, warrants or units comprised of one or more of the other securities, in one or more offerings from time to time, for an aggregate offering price of up to $500,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in other currencies), omitting the Shelf Information (as defined herein) in accordance with the Shelf Procedures (as defined herein).

The Corporation has also prepared and filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") pursuant to the Canada/United States Multi-Jurisdictional Disclosure System adopted by the Canadian Securities Regulators and the SEC, a registration statement on Form F-10/A (File No. 333-274686) for the registration of the Offering under the U.S. Securities Act (as defined herein) including the Canadian Preliminary Base Shelf Prospectus with such changes thereto as are permitted or required by Form F-10 and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. Such prospectus used in the United States, including the documents incorporated by reference therein and any supplements or amendments thereto, is herein called the "U.S. Preliminary Base Shelf Prospectus"; and such registration statement on Form F-10/A, including the U.S. Preliminary Base Shelf Prospectus, is herein called the "Initial Registration Statement". The Corporation has also prepared and filed with the SEC an Appointment of Agent for Service of Process and Undertaking on Form F-X (the "Form F-X") that was filed concurrently with the Initial Registration Statement. In addition, the Corporation has prepared and filed with the SEC an amendment to the Initial Registration Statement to include the Canadian Final Base Shelf Prospectus (with such changes thereto as are permitted or required by Form F-10 and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC) omitting the Shelf Information, such most recently filed prospectus being referred to herein as the "U.S. Final Base Shelf Prospectus", and which such amendment to the Initial Registration Statement containing the U.S. Final Base Shelf Prospectus was declared effective by the SEC pursuant to Rule 467(b) ("Rule 467(b)") under the U.S. Securities Act on November 29, 2023 (as so amended, and including the exhibits thereto and the documents incorporated by reference therein, the "Registration Statement").

The Corporation will prepare and file, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement: (i) with the Canadian Securities Regulators, in accordance with the Shelf Procedures, a prospectus supplement relating to the Offering setting forth the Shelf Information (including as the context may require any documents incorporated therein by reference and any supplements or amendments thereto, the "Canadian Prospectus Supplement"), and (ii) with the SEC as a prospectus supplement to the U.S. Final Base Shelf Prospectus, and including the Canadian Prospectus Supplement (with such changes thereto as are permitted or required by Form F-10 and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC) (the "U.S. Prospectus Supplement").

The Underwriters shall be entitled (but not obligated) to appoint a soliciting dealer group consisting of other registered dealers for the purposes of arranging for purchases of the Offered Units. The Underwriters shall ensure that any investment dealer who is a member of any soliciting dealer group formed by the Underwriters pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or with whom any Underwriter has a contractual relationship with respect to the Offering (each, a "Selling Firm"), if any, agrees with such Underwriter to comply with the covenants and obligations given by the Underwriters herein.

In consideration of the Underwriters' services to be rendered in connection with the Offering, the Corporation shall pay to the Underwriters at Closing (as defined herein) and any Over-Allotment Closing (as defined herein) a cash commission (the "Commission") equal to 4.75% of the gross proceeds realized by the Corporation from the Offering (including any gross proceeds from the sale of the Additional Units). The Lead Underwriter will be entitled to a work fee (the "Work Fee") which shall be calculated as 5.0% of the Commission and extracted from the Commission. For avoidance of doubt, the Corporation shall not be liable to pay any amount of such Work Fee (apart from any obligation hereunder to pay the Commission from which the Work Fee is to be extracted.

Any such closing shall be referred to as an "Over-Allotment Closing" and shall be conducted in the same manner as the Closing. At any Over-Allotment Closing, the Corporation and the Underwriters shall make all necessary payments and the Corporation shall, at its sole expense, deliver all of the certificates, opinions and other documents to be delivered by it on the Closing Date, each updated to the date of any such Over-Allotment Closing.

10. Termination Events. Any Underwriter may terminate its obligations on or before Closing and any Over-Allotment Closing if, commencing on the date hereof and prior to the Closing Time or Option Closing Time, as applicable:

(a) there shall occur or be discovered by the Underwriters (or any of them) any material change in the business, financial condition, or financial prospects of the Corporation and the Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) or any change in any material fact contained or referred to in the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplements or any amendment or supplement thereto, or there shall exist any material fact which is, or may be, of such a nature as to render the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplements or any amendment or supplement thereto, untrue, false or misleading in a material respect or result in a misrepresentation (other than a change or fact related solely to the Underwriters), in each case, which in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters (or any of them), might reasonably be expected to seriously adversely affect the market price, value or marketability of the Offered Units;


- 37 -

(b) any inquiry, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (whether formal or informal) is instituted, announced or threatened or any order is issued by any Governmental Authority or otherwise (other than an inquiry, investigation, proceeding or order based upon the activities or alleged activities of the Underwriters), or there is any change of law, or the interpretation or administration thereof, which in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters (or any of them), operates to prevent, restrict or otherwise materially adversely effect the distribution or trading of the Offered Units or any other securities of the Corporation, to cease or suspend trading in the Offered Units, or to otherwise prohibit or restrict in any manner the distribution or trading of the Offered Units; (c) there should be announced, develop, occur or come into effect or existence any event, action, state, condition or occurrence of national or international consequence, acts of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions or any action, law, regulation or inquiry which, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters (or any of them), materially adversely affects or involves, or may materially adversely affect or involve, the financial markets in Canada or the United States, seriously adversely affects or may seriously adversely affect, the business, operations or affairs of the Corporation and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, prevents or restricts trading in or the distribution of any securities of the Corporation or seriously adversely affects or might reasonably be expected to seriously adversely affect the market price or value of any securities of the Corporation; or

(d) the Corporation is in material breach of a term, condition or covenant of this Agreement or any representation or warranty given by the Corporation in this Agreement becomes or is false in a material respect (or, in the case of representations or warranties qualified by materiality, in any respect) and cannot be reasonably expected to be remedied prior to the Closing.

Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, any Underwriter shall be entitled to terminate and cancel its obligations to the Corporation hereunder by written notice to that effect given to the Corporation and the Lead Underwriter prior to the Closing and any Over-Allotment Closing.

11. Exercise of Termination Right. If this Agreement is terminated by any of the Underwriters pursuant to Section 10, there shall be no further liability to the Corporation on the part of such Underwriter or of the Corporation to such Underwriter, except in respect of any liability that may have arisen or may thereafter arise under Sections 13 and 14. The right of the Underwriters or any one of them to terminate their respective obligations under this Agreement is in addition to such other remedies as they may have in respect of any default, act or failure to act of the Corporation in respect of any of the matters contemplated by this Agreement. A notice of termination given by one Underwriter under Section 10 shall not be binding upon the other Underwriters.

12. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All terms, warranties, representations, covenants and agreements herein contained or contained in any documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement and in connection with the transactions herein contemplated shall survive the Closing and will continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Underwriters and/or the Corporation, as the case may be, regardless of any subsequent disposition of the Offered Securities or any investigation by or on behalf of the Underwriters with respect thereto for a period ending on the latest date under Canadian Securities Laws (non-residents of Canada being deemed to be resident in the Province of Ontario for such purposes) that an action may be commenced or a right of rescission may be exercised with respect to a misrepresentation contained in the Canadian Prospectus or, if applicable, any Prospectus Amendment in respect thereof. The Underwriters and/or the Corporation, as the case may be, will be entitled to rely on the representations and warranties of the other parties contained in this Agreement or delivered pursuant to this Agreement notwithstanding any investigation, which the Underwriters and/or the Corporation may undertake or which may be undertaken on the Underwriters' and/or Corporation's behalf, as the case may be.


- 38 -

13. Indemnity and Contribution.

The Corporation agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriters (and any investment dealer who is a member of any soliciting dealer group formed by the Underwriters pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or with whom any Underwriter has a contractual relationship with respect to the Offering) and each of their subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, agents and advisors (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" and individually, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all losses (except loss of profit), inquiry, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, damages, liabilities or expenses of whatsoever nature or kind, including the aggregate amount paid in reasonable settlement of any actions, suits, proceedings, investigations or claims and the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel in connection with any inquiry, action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim that may be made or threatened against any Indemnified Party or in enforcing this indemnity (collectively, the "Claims") to which an Indemnified Party may become subject or otherwise involved in any capacity insofar as the Claims relate to, are caused by, result from, arise out of or are based upon, directly or indirectly, the performance of professional services rendered to the Corporation by an Indemnified Party hereunder or otherwise in connection with the matters referred to in this Agreement, whether performed before or after the Corporation's execution of this Agreement, including in connection with Claims relating to or arising from the following:

(a) any information or statement (except any information or statement relating solely to or provided by the Underwriters) contained in the Prospectuses and Time of Sale Prospectus, which at the time and in light of the circumstances under which it was made contains or is alleged to contain a misrepresentation or any omission or any alleged omission to state therein any fact or information (except facts or information relating solely to the Underwriters and provided by the Underwriters) required to be stated therein or necessary to make any of the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made;

(b) the omission or alleged omission to state in any certificate of the Corporation or of any officers of the Corporation delivered in connection with the Offering any material fact (except facts or information relating solely to the Underwriters and provided by the Underwriters) required to be stated therein where such omission or alleged omission constitutes or is alleged to constitute a misrepresentation;

(c) any order made or any Claim commenced or threatened by any securities regulatory authority, stock exchange or by any other competent authority, based upon any misrepresentation or alleged misrepresentation (except a misrepresentation relating solely to the Underwriters and provided by the Underwriters) in the Offering Documents (except any document or material delivered or filed solely by the Underwriters) based upon any failure or alleged failure to comply with Applicable Securities Laws (other than any failure or alleged failure to comply by the Underwriters) preventing and restricting the trading in or the sale of the Common Shares under the Offering;

(d) the non-compliance or alleged non-compliance by the Corporation with any material requirement of Applicable Securities Laws, including the Corporation's non-compliance with any statutory requirement to make any document available for inspection; or


- 39 -

(e) breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Corporation contained in this Agreement or the failure of the Corporation to comply in all material respects with any of its obligations hereunder, and further agrees to immediately reimburse each Indemnified Party forthwith, upon demand, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with any Claim; provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not be applicable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any Claim to the extent the losses, expenses, claims, actions, damages or liabilities covered by such Claim are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud of such Indemnified Party.

The Corporation also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (either direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Corporation or any person asserting Claims on the Corporation's behalf or in right for or in connection with the performance of professional services rendered to the Corporation by an Indemnified Party hereunder or otherwise in connection with the matters referred to in this Agreement, whether performed before or after the Corporation's execution of this Agreement, except to the extent that any losses, expenses, Claims, actions, damages or liabilities incurred by the Corporation are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable to have resulted from the Indemnified Party's breach of this Agreement, or the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of such Indemnified Party.

In the event and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgement that has become non-appealable determines that an Indemnified Party breached this Agreement, or was grossly negligent or guilty of willful misconduct, fraud or dishonesty in connection with a Claim in respect of which the Corporation has advanced funds to the Indemnified Party pursuant to this indemnity, such Indemnified Party shall immediately reimburse such funds to the Corporation and thereafter this indemnity shall not apply to such Indemnified Party in respect of such Claim.

In case any Claim is brought against an Indemnified Party or an Indemnified Party has received notice of the commencement of any Claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought against the Corporation, the Indemnified Party will give the Corporation prompt written notice of any such Claim of which the Indemnified Party has knowledge and the Corporation will undertake the investigation and defence thereof on behalf of the Indemnified Party, including the prompt employment of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Parties affected and the payment of all reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses. Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify shall not relieve the Corporation of its obligation of indemnification hereunder unless (and only to the extent that) such failure results in the forfeiture by the Corporation of substantive rights or defences or to the extent that the Corporation is materially prejudiced thereby.

No admission of liability and no settlement, compromise or termination of any Claim shall be made without the Corporation's consent and the consent of the Indemnified Parties affected, such consents not to be unreasonably withheld.

Notwithstanding that the Corporation will undertake the investigation and defence of any Claim, an Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel with respect to any Claim and participate in the defence thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless:

(a) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Corporation;

(b) the Corporation has not assumed the defence within a reasonable period of time after receiving notice of such Claim; (c) the named parties to any such Claim include both the Corporation and the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be a conflict of interest between the Corporation and the Indemnified Party; or


- 40 -

(d) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by counsel that there are one or more defences available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the Corporation, which makes representation by the same counsel inappropriate.

The rights accorded to the Indemnified Parties hereunder shall be in addition to any rights an Indemnified Party may have at common law or otherwise.

If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable (other than in accordance with the terms hereof) to the Indemnified Parties (or any of them) or insufficient to hold them harmless, then the Corporation shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Parties as a result of such Claim in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Corporation on the one hand and the Indemnified Parties on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Corporation and the Indemnified Parties, as well as any other equitable considerations which may be relevant; provided that the Corporation shall, in any event, contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Parties as a result of such Claim, any amount in excess of the fees actually received by the Indemnified Parties hereunder in which case such fees and expenses will be for the Corporation's account.

The Corporation hereby acknowledges the Underwriters as trustee for each of the other Indemnified Parties of the Corporation's covenants under this indemnity with respect to such persons and the Underwriters agree to accept such trust and to hold and enforce such covenants on behalf of such persons.

14. Expenses. The Corporation shall pay all expenses and fees in connection with the Offering, including: (i) all fees and expenses of or incidental to the creation, issue, sale or distribution of the Offered Securities and the filing of the Prospectus Supplements (including any fees and expenses relating or payable to (A) the Canadian Securities Regulators and the SEC, (B) the listing and qualification of the Common Shares issuable under the Offering (including the Unit Shares and Warrant Shares) on NASDAQ and the TSX, (C) the printing and mailing of the Offering Documents, (D) the qualification, registration, or exemption, if required, of the Offered Securities under the securities laws of those states in which the Underwriters determine to offer the Offered Securities, including the costs of preparing, printing and mailing the "Blue Sky" surveys and the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters in connection therewith, (E) any COBRA desk or other filings with FINRA, (F) the Corporation's travel (if any) in connection with "roadshow" informational meetings and presentations for the brokerage community and institutional investors, (G) settlement in same day funds, if desired by the Corporation, and (H) registrar and transfer agent fees); (ii) the fees and disbursements of the Corporation's legal counsel and of local counsel to the Corporation; (iii) the fees and expenses of the Underwriters' legal counsel (up to a maximum of $125,000, exclusive of taxes and disbursements, in respect of fees of the Underwriters' Canadian legal counsel); and (iv) all costs incurred in connection with the preparation of documentation relating to the Offering, in each case whether or not the Offering is completed. For greater certainty, the Underwriters will not be responsible for: (i) costs of preparing, printing and mailing any "Blue Sky" surveys and the fees and disbursements of legal counsel to the Underwriters in connection therewith; or (ii) any COBRA desk or other filings with FINRA.

15. Standstill Period. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the day which is 90 days following the Closing Date, the Corporation shall not, without the prior written consent of the Lead Underwriter, on behalf of the Underwriters, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, directly or indirectly, issue, agree to issue, or announce an intention to issue, any Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, or enter into any agreement or arrangement under which the Corporation acquires or transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Shares or agree to become bound to do so, or disclose to the public any intention to do so, except with respect to: (i) the grant or exercise of stock options or other similar issuances pursuant to the Corporation's equity compensation plans; (ii) the exercise of outstanding warrants existing on the date hereof; (iii) obligations of the Corporation in respect of existing agreements; (iv) the issuance of securities of the Corporation in connection with acquisitions in the normal course of business; or (iv) securities under the Offering (including, for greater certainty, Additional Units under the Over-Allotment Option). In addition and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Corporation shall not, without the prior written consent of the Lead Underwriter, on behalf of the Underwriters, waive the restrictions set forth in Section 8.2 of the amended and restated investor rights agreement dated January 23, 2024 between the Corporation and BT DE Investments Inc. for a period of 90 days following the Closing Date.

The Underwriters hereby expressly disclaim any fiduciary or similar obligations to the Corporation, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Corporation hereby confirms its understanding and agreement to that effect. The Corporation and the Underwriters agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by the Underwriters to the Corporation regarding such transactions, including any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Corporation's securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to the Corporation.

RE: Public Offering of Common Shares of Organigram Holdings Inc.

Ladies & Gentlemen:

Reference is made to an underwriting agreement dated March 27, 2024 (the "Underwriting Agreement") among Organigram Holdings Inc. (the "Company") and the Underwriters relating to the offer and sale of 7,740,000 units shares in the capital of the Company ("Common Shares") for aggregate gross proceeds of $25,000,200 (the "Offering"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Underwriting Agreement.

The undersigned is an executive officer, director or principal shareholder of the Company or an associate of an executive officer, director or principal shareholder of the Company who holds under his, her or its (as applicable) control or direction or beneficially owns Common Shares or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or exercisable to acquire Common Shares (collectively, the "Locked-Up Securities") and, accordingly, recognizes that the Offering will benefit the Company. For greater certainty, "Locked-Up Securities" includes Common Shares or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or exercisable to acquire Common Shares, whether now owned or hereafter acquired. The undersigned has good and marketable title to the Locked-Up Securities and acknowledges that the Underwriters are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this agreement in carrying out and completing the Offering.

In consideration of the foregoing, the undersigned hereby agrees that during the period commencing on the closing of the Offering and ending 90 days thereafter (the "Lock-Up Period"), the undersigned has not and will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, lend, swap, or enter into any other agreement to transfer the economic consequences of, or otherwise dispose of or deal with, or publicly announce any intention to offer, sell, contract to sell, grant or sell any option to purchase, hypothecate, pledge, transfer, assign, purchase any option or contract to sell, lend, swap or enter into any agreement to transfer the economic consequences of, or otherwise dispose of or deal with, whether through the facilities of a stock exchange, by private agreement or otherwise, any Locked-Up Securities, without the prior written consent of the Lead Underwriter on behalf of the Underwriters (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), except in respect of (i) a bona fide take-over bid or any other similar transaction made generally to all of the securityholders of the Company, provided that, in the event the change of control or other similar transaction is not completed, such Locked-Up Securities shall remain subject to this agreement; and (ii) any transfers to: (A) a spouse, parent, child or grandchild of the undersigned (a "Relative"); (B) corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies or other entities to the extent that such entities are wholly-owned by the undersigned; (C) trusts existing solely for the benefit of the undersigned and/or a Relative; or (D) a charitable organization pursuant to a bona fide gift, provided, however, that in the case of (ii), any such transferee will first execute a lock-up agreement in substantially the form hereof which lock-up agreement will remain in force for the remainder of the Lock-up Period.

For avoidance of doubt, nothing in this agreement prohibits the undersigned from exercising any options or warrants to purchase Common Shares (which exercises may be effected on a cashless basis to the extent the instruments representing such options or warrants permit exercises on a cashless basis), it being understood that any Common Shares issued upon such exercises will be subject to the restrictions of this agreement.
