- 3 -
and to secure for the Corporation and the shareholders of the Corporation the benefits inherent in the ownership of Common Shares by key employees and directors of the Corporation and subsidiaries of the Corporation, it being generally recognized that stock option plans aid in attracting, retaining and encouraging employees and directors due to the opportunity offered to them to acquire a proprietary interest in the Corporation.

ARTICLE FIVE
EXERCISE OF OPTION, EFFECT OF DEATH AND
TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND WITHHOLDING TAXES
Section 5.01
Exercise of Option:
(a)
Exercise: Subject to any restriction on the number or percentage of Common Shares which may be purchased by the Optionee during any particular time period within the Option Period determined by the Committee, an Option may be exercised by the Optionee in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, during the Option Period, provided however that, except as otherwise specifically provided in section 5.02 or section 5.03 hereof or in any Employment Contract, no Option may be exercised unless the Optionee at the time of exercise thereof is:
(i)
in the case of an Eligible Employee, in the employment of the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation and has been continuously so employed since the date of grant of such option, provided however that a leave of absence with the approval of the Corporation or such subsidiary of the Corporation shall not be considered an interruption of employment for purposes of the Plan;
(ii)
in the case of an Eligible Director who is not also an Eligible Employee, a director of the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation and has been such a director continuously since the date of grant of such Option; and
(iii)
in the case of an Other Participant, engaged in providing ongoing management or consulting services for the Corporation or an entity
- 6 -
controlled by the Corporation and has been so engaged since the date of grant of such Option.
(b)
Payment of Exercise Price: The exercise of any Option shall be contingent upon receipt by the Corporation of payment of the aggregate purchase price for the Common Shares in respect of which the Option has been exercised. No Optionee or legal representative, legatee or distributee of any Optionee will be, or will be deemed to be, a holder of any Common Shares with respect to which such Optionee was granted an Option, unless and until certificates for such Common Shares are issued to such Optionee, or them, under the terms of the Plan. Subject to section 9.04 hereof, upon an Optionee exercising an Option and paying the Corporation the aggregate purchase price for the Common Shares in respect of which the Option has been exercised, the Corporation shall as soon as practicable issue and deliver a certificate representing the Common Shares so purchased.
(c)
Share Appreciation Rights: An Optionee may, rather than exercise any Option which such Optionee is entitled to exercise under paragraph 5.01(a) of the Plan, elect to terminate any such Option, in whole or in part, and, in lieu of receiving the Common Shares to which the Option so terminated relates, to receive that number of Common Shares, disregarding fractions, which, when multiplied by the fair value of the Common Shares to which the Option so terminated relates, has a value equal to the product of the number of Common Shares to which the Option so terminated relates multiplied by the difference between the fair value (which shall be the average of the high and low board lot prices for the Common Shares on the TSX or if the Common Shares are not then traded on the TSX, on the most senior of any other exchange on which the Common Shares are then traded, for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of termination of such Option) and the exercise price per share of the Common Shares to which the Option so terminated relates, less any amount withheld on account of income taxes, which withheld income taxes will be remitted by the Corporation.
Section 5.02
Effect of Death: If a Participant shall die while an Optionee, any Option held by such Optionee at the date of death shall be exercisable in whole or in part only by the person or persons to whom the rights of the Optionee under the Option shall pass by the will of the Optionee or the laws of descent and distribution for a period of one year after the date of death of the Optionee or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect of the Option, whichever is sooner, and then only to the extent that such Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of death of such Optionee, subject to the provisions of any Employment Contract.
Section 5.03
Effect of Termination of Employment: If an Optionee shall cease to be a Participant for cause, no Option held by such Optionee shall be exercisable following the date on which such Optionee ceases to be a Participant. If an Optionee ceases to be a Participant for any reason other than for cause or by virtue of death, any Option held by such Optionee at such time shall remain exercisable in full at any time, and in part from time to time, for a period of 30 days for a Participant who is employed to provide Investor Relations Activities and 90 days for other Participants, after the date on which the Optionee ceases to be a Participant or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect of the Option, whichever is sooner, and then only to
- 7 -
the extent that such Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at such time, subject to the provisions of any Employment Contract.
Section 5.04
Withholding Taxes: The Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation may take such steps as are considered necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes which the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority whatsoever to withhold in connection with any Option including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the withholding of all or any portion of any payment or the withholding of the issue of Common Shares to be issued upon the exercise of any Option until such time as the Optionee has paid the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation for any amount which the Corporation or subsidiary of the Corporation is required to withhold with respect to such taxes.
ARTICLE SIX
CAPITAL CHANGES
Section 6.01
Capital Changes: In the event there is any change in the Common Shares, whether by reason of a stock dividend, consolidation, subdivision, reclassification or otherwise, an appropriate adjustment shall be made by the Directors in:
(a)
the number of Common Shares available under the Plan;
(b)
the number of Common Shares subject to Options; and
(c)
the exercise price of the Common Shares subject to Options.
If the foregoing adjustment shall result in a fractional Common Share, the fraction shall be disregarded. All such adjustments shall be conclusive, final and binding for all purposes of the Plan.
Section 6.02
Amalgamation, Consolidation or Merger: If the Corporation amalgamates with, consolidates with or merges with or into, or participates in a statutory arrangement with, another corporation, any Common Shares receivable on the exercise of an Option shall be converted into the securities, property or cash which the Optionee would have received upon such amalgamation, consolidation, merger or arrangement had the Option been exercised prior to such event becoming effective.
ARTICLE SEVEN
WITHHOLDING TAXES AND SECURITIES LAWS
OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Section 7.01
Withholding Taxes: The Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation may take such steps as are considered necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes which the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority whatsoever to withhold in connection with any Option including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the withholding of all or any portion of any payment or the withholding of the issue of Common Shares to be issued upon the exercise of any Option until such time as the Optionee has paid the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation for

Securities Laws of the United States of America: Neither the Options which may be granted pursuant to the provisions of the Plan nor the Common Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the exercise of Options have been registered under the U.S. Act, or under any securities law of any state of the United States of America. Accordingly, any Optionee who is granted an Option in a transaction which is subject to the U.S. Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States of America shall represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree in the agreement containing the Option granted to the Optionee that:
(a)
the Optionee is acquiring the Option and any Common Shares acquired upon the exercise of such Option as principal and for the account of the Optionee;
(b)
in granting the Option and issuing the Common Shares to the Optionee upon the exercise of such Option, the Corporation is relying on the representations and warranties of the Optionee contained in the agreement relating to the Option to support the conclusion of the Corporation that the granting of the Option and the issue of Common Shares upon the exercise of such Option do not require registration under the U.S. Act or to be qualified under the securities laws of any state of the United States of America;
(c)
each certificate representing Common Shares issued upon the exercise of such Option shall bear the following legends:
"THE COMMON SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"), AND MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (C) WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE CORPORATION, PURSUANT TO ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS."
"THE PRESENCE OF THIS LEGEND MAY IMPAIR THE ABILITY OF THE HOLDER HEREOF TO EFFECT GOOD DELIVERY OF THE COMMON SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY ON A CANADIAN STOCK EXCHANGE.
A CERTIFICATE WITHOUT A LEGEND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE COMMON SHARES OF THE CORPORATION IN CONNECTION WITH A SALE OF THE COMMON SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND AN EXECUTED DECLARATION BY THE SELLER, IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT
- 9 -
AND THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH SALE IS BEING MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.";
provided that if such Common Shares are being sold outside the United States of America in compliance with the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S under the U.S. Act the foregoing legends may be removed by providing a written declaration by the holder to the registrar and transfer agent for the Common Shares to the following effect:
"The undersigned (a) represents and warrants that the sale of the securities of Cream Minerals Ltd. (the "Corporation") to which this declaration relates is being made in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), and (b) certifies that (1) the undersigned is not an affiliate of the Corporation as that term is defined in the U.S. Securities Act, (2) the offer of such securities was not made to a person in the United States and either (a) at the time the buy order was originated, the buyer was outside the United States, or the undersigned and any person acting on behalf of the undersigned reasonably believe that the buyer was outside the United States (b) the transaction was executed on or through the facilities of The TSX or the TSX Venture Exchange and neither the undersigned nor any person acting on behalf of the undersigned knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the United States, and (3) neither the undersigned nor any affiliate of the undersigned nor any person acting on any of their behalf has engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts in the United States in connection with the offer and sale of such securities. Terms used herein have the meanings given to them by Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act";
(d)
other than as contemplated by subsection 7.02(c) hereof, prior to making any disposition of any Common Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Option which might be subject to the requirements of the U.S. Act, the Optionee shall give written notice to the Corporation describing the manner of the proposed disposition and containing such other information as is necessary to enable counsel for the Corporation to determine whether registration under the U.S. Act or qualification under any securities laws of any state of the United States of America is required in connection with the proposed disposition and whether the proposed disposition is otherwise in compliance with such legislation and the regulations thereto;
(e)
other than as contemplated by subsection 7.02(c) hereof, the Optionee will not attempt to effect any disposition of the Common Shares owned by the Optionee and acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Option or of any interest therein which might be subject to the requirements of the U.S. Act in the absence of an effective registration statement relating thereto under the U.S. Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to counsel for the Corporation that such disposition would not constitute a violation of the U.S. Act or any securities laws of any state of the United States of America and then will only dispose of such Common Shares in the manner so proposed;
- 10 -
(f)
the Corporation may place a notation on the records of the Corporation to the effect that none of the Common Shares acquired by the Optionee pursuant to the exercise of such Option shall be transferred unless the provisions of the Plan have been complied with; and

the effect of these restrictions on the disposition of the Common Shares acquired by the Optionee pursuant to the exercise of such Option is such that the Optionee may not be able to sell or otherwise dispose of such Common Shares for a considerable length of time in a transaction which is subject to the provisions of the U.S. Act other than as contemplated by subsection 7.02(c) hereof.
