Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Registrant is subject to the provisions of Part 5, Division 5 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Act”).

Under Section 160 of the Act, the Registrant may, subject to Section 163 of the Act:

and including, subject to certain limited exceptions, the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of that individual (collectively, an “eligible party”), against all eligible penalties to which the eligible party is or may be liable; and

“eligible penalty” means a judgment, penalty or fine awarded or imposed in, or an amount paid in settlement of, and eligible proceeding.

“eligible proceeding” means a proceeding in which an eligible party or any of the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of the eligible party, by reason of the eligible party being or having been a director or officer of, or holding or having held a position equivalent to that of a director or officer of, the Registrant or an associated corporation (a) is or may be joined as a party, or (b) is or may be liable for or in respect of a judgment, penalty or fine in, or expenses related to, the proceeding.

“proceeding” includes any legal proceeding or investigative action, whether current, threatened , pending or completed.

Under Section 161 of the Act, and subject to Section 163 of the Act, the Registrant must, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, pay the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party in respect of that proceeding if the eligible party (a) has not been reimbursed for those expenses, and (b) is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the outcome of the proceeding or is substantially successful on the merits in the outcome of the proceeding.

Under Section 162 of the Act, and subject to Section 163 of the Act, the Registrant may pay, as they are incurred in advance of the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party in respect of the proceeding, provided that the Registrant must not make such payments unless we first receive from the eligible party a written undertaking that, if it is ultimately determined that the payment of expenses is prohibited under Section 163 of the Act, the eligible party will repay the amounts advanced.

Under Section 163 of the Act, the Registrant must not indemnify an eligible party against eligible penalties to which the eligible party is or may be liable or pay the expenses of an eligible party in respect of that proceeding under Sections 160, 161 or 162 of the Act, as the case may be, if any of the following circumstances apply:

If an eligible proceeding is brought against an eligible party by or on behalf of the Registrant or by or on behalf of an associated corporation, the Registrant must not either indemnify the eligible party against eligible penalties to which the eligible party is or may be liable, or pay the expenses of the eligible party under Sections 160, 161 or 162 of the Act, as the case may be, in respect of the proceeding.

Under Section 164 of the Act, and despite any other provision of Part 5, Division 5 of the Act and whether or not payment of expenses or indemnification has been sought, authorized or declined under Part 5, Division 5 of the Act, on application of the Registrant or an eligible party, the Supreme Court of British Columbia may do one or more of the following:

Section 165 of the Act provides that the Registrant may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of an eligible party or the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of the eligible party against any liability that may be incurred by reason of the eligible party being or having been a director or officer of, or holding or having held a position equivalent to that of a director or officer of, the Registrant or an associated corporation.

Under the Registrant’s articles, and subject to the Act, the Registrant must indemnify a director, former director or alternate director and his or her heirs and legal personal representatives against all eligible penalties to which such person is or may be liable, and the Registrant must, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, pay the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in respect of that proceeding. Each eligible party is deemed to have contracted with the Registrant on the terms of the indemnity contained in the Registrant’s articles.

Under the Registrant’s articles, and subject to the Act, the Registrant may agree to indemnify and may indemnify any person (including an eligible party). The Registrant has entered into indemnity agreements with certain of the Registrant’s directors and officers.

Pursuant to the Registrant’s articles, the failure of an eligible party to comply with the Act or the Registrant’s articles does not, of itself, invalidate any indemnity to which he or she is entitled under the Registrant’s articles.

Under the Registrant’s articles, the Registrant may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of an eligible person (or his or her heirs or legal personal representatives) against any liability incurred by him or her as a director, officer or person who holds or held such equivalent position.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant’s company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Not applicable.

Item 8. Exhibits.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fees” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling

person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

“Award Agreement” means the document (in written or electronic form) communicating the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to an Award. The Committee may, in its discretion, require that the Participant execute such Award Agreement, or may provide for procedures through which Award Agreements are made available but not executed.

To the extent permitted by law and any leave of absence policy of the Company, the Committee in its sole discretion, may determine whether Continuous Service shall be considered interrupted in the case of any leave of absence approved by that party, including sick leave, military leave or any other personal leave; provided, however, a Participant’s Continuous Service shall not be deemed to have been terminated because of an approved leave of absence from active service with the Company or a Subsidiary on account of temporary illness, authorized vacation, or granted for reasons of professional advancement, education, health, or government service, or during military leave for any period that is required by the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, as amended (“USERRA”) (if the Participant returns to active service with the Company or a Subsidiary within the period required by USERRA after termination of military leave), or during any period required to be treated as a leave of absence by virtue of any applicable and binding statute (such as the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, as amended), personnel policy, or employment agreement. Whether an authorized leave of absence constitutes termination of Continuous Service hereunder shall be determined by the Committee.

The Committee’s determinations under the Plan (including, without limitation, determinations of the persons to receive Awards, the form, amount and timing of such Awards, the terms and provisions of such Awards and the Award Agreements evidencing same) shall be made in its discretion and need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards under the Plan, whether or not such persons are similarly situated. All determinations and interpretations made by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons, including without limitation, all Participants and persons claiming rights from or through a Participant.

(f) Delegation. The Committee may delegate any of its authority to grant Awards to Employees who are not subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, subject to Section 3(b) above, to the Board or to any other committee of the Board, provided such delegation is made in writing and specifically sets forth such delegated authority. The Committee may also delegate to an Authorized Officer authority to execute on behalf of the Company any Award Agreement. The Committee and the Board, as applicable, may (i) delegate the authority to officers or employees of the Company or a Subsidiary or (ii) engage or authorize the engagement of a third-party administrator to carry out administrative functions under the Plan. Any such delegation hereunder shall only be made to the extent permitted by applicable law.

4. Shares Subject to Plan. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 9, the number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Awards shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 15,000,000 Shares; provided that, starting on January 1, 2022, on January 1 of each year, the total number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan may be increased by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 2.5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares on December 31 of the immediately preceding year or (ii) such other number of Shares as determined by the Board in its discretion. The Shares shall be issued from authorized and unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including Shares repurchased by the Company. If an Option or SAR shall for any reason expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full for any reason, or if all or any portion of the Shares subject to a Stock Award shall be forfeited for any reason, the Shares for which the Option or SAR was not exercised or the Shares so forfeited shall revert to, and may again become available for the grant of one or more Awards under the Plan.

(a) The Board and the appropriate officers of the Company shall from time to time take whatever actions are necessary to file any required documents with governmental authorities, stock exchanges and transaction reporting systems to ensure that shares of Common Stock are available for issuance pursuant to Awards.

(b) No Awards shall be granted under the Plan following the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, that all Awards granted under the Plan prior to such date shall remain in effect until: (i) in the case of Options or SARs, such Options or SARs have been exercised or terminated in accordance with the Plan and the terms of such Awards, (ii) in the case of Stock Awards, the Shares subject to such Award are no longer subject to any restrictions (including, without limitation, any risk of forfeiture) or have been returned to the Company in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the applicable Award Agreement; or (iii) in the cash of Cash Awards, the amounts subject to such Award have been paid or the Cash Award has been forfeited or terminated, as applicable.

(c) Insider Participation Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, the number of shares of Common Stock issued to Insiders, within any one-year period, and issuable to Insiders, at any time, under the Plan shall not exceed 10% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at any particular time.

5. Eligibility for Employees.

(a) Eligibility for Grant of Awards. Employees shall be eligible to receive Awards at the sole discretion of the Committee.

(b) Ten Percent Shareholders. A Ten Percent Shareholder shall not be granted an ISO unless the exercise price of such Option is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, and the Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant.

6. Consultants and Non-Employee Director Grants under the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, each Non-Employee Director of the Company and consultants shall be eligible to be granted Awards under the Plan, other than ISOs, at the discretion of the Board.

7. Award Agreements and Terms. The Committee shall determine the type or types of Awards to be made under the Plan and shall designate from time to time the Participants who are to be the recipients of such Awards. Each Award shall be embodied in an Award Agreement, which shall contain such terms, conditions and limitations as shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and, if required by the Committee, shall be signed by the Participant to whom the Award is granted and by an Authorized Officer for and on behalf of the Company. Awards may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem. Awards may also be made in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, grants or rights under the Plan or any other plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including the plan of any acquired entity; provided, however, that, except as contemplated in Section 9 hereof, no Option or SAR may be issued in exchange for the cancellation of an Option or SAR with a higher Exercise Price nor may the Exercise Price of any Option or SAR be reduced. All or part of an Award may be subject to conditions established by the Committee. Upon the termination of service by a Participant, any unexercised, unvested or unpaid Awards shall be treated as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement or in any other written agreement the Company has entered into with the Participant.

A. Options. Each Option granted under the Plan shall be a Nonqualified Stock Option, unless the Option specifically shall be designated at the time of grant to be an ISO. If any Option designated as an ISO is determined for any reason not to qualify as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, such Option shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option for all purposes under the provisions of the Plan. Each Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement in such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve; which Award Agreement shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions and such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall from time to time require that are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. The exercise period for an Option shall extend no more than 10 years after the Grant Date, except that the exercise period for an ISO that is granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder shall be five years. Options may not include provisions that “reload” the Option upon exercise.

(a) Exercise Price. Each Award Agreement shall state the Exercise Price applicable to the Option granted therein. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(b) with respect to a Ten Percent Shareholder granted an ISO, the Exercise Price of any Option, whether a Nonqualified Stock Option or an ISO, shall in no event ever be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option on the Grant Date as determined by the Committee in accordance with this Section 7A(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option may be granted with an Exercise Price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code, subject to the approval of the TSX.

(b) Exercise. No Option shall be deemed to have been exercised prior to the receipt by the Company of written notice of such exercise and of payment in full of the Exercise Price for the Shares to be purchased. Each such notice shall specify the number of Shares to be purchased.

(c) Method of Payment. The purchase price of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable law and as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, by one or more of the following methods. The Committee shall have authority to grant Options that do not entitle the Participant to use all methods or that require prior written consent of the Company to use certain of the methods. The methods of payment of the Exercise Price are:

(i) cash or check payable in clearinghouse funds to the order of the Company;

(ii) by delivery to the Company of other Shares of Common Stock which, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, have been held for more than six (6) months;

(iii) by a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of Shares issued upon exercise by the largest whole number of the Shares with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the Exercise Price; provided, however, that the Company shall accept cash or other payment from the Participant to the extent of any remaining balance of the aggregate Exercise Price not so satisfied, provided further that the Shares will no longer be outstanding under an Option and will not be exercisable thereafter to the extent so applied or withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations pursuant to Section 16 below; or

(iv) any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Committee.

(d) Limitation on ISO Grants. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares of Common Stock (determined at the time the ISO is granted) with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year under all incentive stock option plans of the Company or its Subsidiaries in which such Participant has been granted ISOs exceeds $100,000, the Options or portions thereof that exceed such limit (according to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the applicable Award Agreement.

B. Stock Appreciation Rights. An Award may be in the form of an SAR. The Exercise Price for an SAR shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date. The holder of a tandem SAR may elect to exercise either the Option or the SAR, but not both. The exercise period for an SAR shall extend no more than 10 years after the Grant Date. SARs may not include provisions that “reload” the SAR upon exercise. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions, and limitations applicable to any SAR, including, but not limited to, the term of any SAR and the date or dates upon which the SAR becomes vested and exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee.

C. Stock Awards. An Award may be in the form of a Stock Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Stock Award, including, but not limited to, vesting or other restrictions, shall be determined by the Committee, and subject to the applicable requirements described herein.

D. Cash Awards. An Award may be in the form of a Cash Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to a Cash Award, including, but not limited to, vesting or other restrictions, shall be determined by the Committee.

E. Performance Awards. Without limiting the type or number of Awards that may be made under the other provisions of the Plan, an Award may be in the form of a Performance Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to an Award that is a Performance Award shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall set Performance Goals in its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the value and/or amount of Performance Awards that will be paid out to the Participant and/or the portion of an Award that may be exercised.

(a) Performance Awards shall be based on achievement of such Performance Goals and be subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee or its delegate shall determine.

8. Change of Control.

(a) Options and SARs. Unless otherwise provided in an applicable Award Agreement, upon the consummation of a Change of Control where Options or SARs are not continued, assumed (or substituted) by the Company (or surviving corporation or ultimate parent corporation in a Change of Control transaction), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, (i) provide for full or partial vesting of any outstanding Option or SAR, (ii) determine that any or all outstanding Options or SARs granted under the Plan, whether or not exercisable, will be canceled and terminated and that in connection with such cancellation and termination the holder of such Option or SAR may receive for each share of Common Stock subject to such Option or SAR cash payment (or the delivery of shares of stock, other securities or a combination of cash, stock and securities equivalent to such cash payment) equal to the difference, if any, between the consideration received by shareholders of the Company in respect of a share of Common Stock in connection with such transaction and the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award; provided that if such product is zero or less or to the extent that the Option or SAR is not then exercisable, the Option or SAR will be canceled and terminated without payment therefor.

(b) Stock Awards. The Committee shall have the discretion to provide in each Award Agreement relating to Stock Awards the terms and conditions that relate to the lapse of any restrictions on the Shares subject thereto, including without limitation any risk of forfeiture, in the event of a Change of Control, which terms and conditions may vary in each such Award Agreement. The Committee may provide for lapse of restrictions on any Shares subject to a Stock Award prior to a Change of Control in the applicable Award Agreement or by unilateral amendment to any such Award Agreement after the grant of any such award.

9. Adjustments.

(a) The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any manner the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the capital stock of the Company or its business or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock (whether or not such issue is prior to, on a parity with or junior to the Common Stock) or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding of any kind, whether or not of a character similar to that of the acts or proceedings enumerated above.

(b) In the event of any subdivision or consolidation of outstanding shares of Common Stock, declaration of a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or other stock split, then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under the Plan and the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to specific types of Awards as described in Section 4, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by outstanding Awards, (iii) the Exercise Price or other price in respect of such Awards, (iv) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Awards, (v) the Stock-Based Award Limitations and (vi) any other limitations contained within the Plan shall each be proportionately adjusted by the Committee as appropriate to reflect such transaction. In the event of any other recapitalization or capital reorganization of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation or entity, the adoption by the Company of any plan of exchange affecting the Common Stock or any distribution to holders of Common Stock of securities or property (other than normal cash dividends or dividends payable in Common Stock), the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments to (1) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under the Plan and the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to specific types of Awards as described in Section 4, (2) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by outstanding Awards, (3) the Exercise Price or other price in respect of such Awards, (4) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Awards, (5) the Stock-Based Award Limitations and (6) any other limitations contained within the Plan; provided that such adjustments shall only be such as are necessary to maintain the proportionate interest of the holders of the Awards and preserve, without exceeding, the value of such Awards.

(c) In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Committee may make such adjustments to Awards or other provisions for the disposition of Awards as it deems equitable, and shall be authorized, in its discretion, to (i) provide for the substitution of a new Award or other arrangement (which, if applicable, may be exercisable for such property or stock as the Committee determines) for an Award or the assumption of the Award (and for awards not granted under the Plan), regardless of whether in a transaction to which Code Section 424(a) applies, (ii) provide, prior to the transaction, for the acceleration of the vesting and exercisability of, or lapse of restrictions with respect to, the Award and, if the transaction is a cash merger, provide for the termination of any portion of the Award that remains unexercised at the time of such transaction, (iii) provide for the acceleration of the vesting and exercisability of an Award and the cancellation thereof in exchange for such payment as the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines is a reasonable approximation of the value thereof, (iv) cancel any Awards and direct the Company to deliver to the Participants who are the holders of such Awards cash in an amount that the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion is equal to the Fair Market Value of such Awards as of the date of such event, which, in the case of any Option, shall be the amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share as of such date over the Exercise Price for such Option or SAR (for the avoidance of doubt, if such exercise price is less than such Fair Market Value, the Option or SAR may be canceled for no consideration), or (v) cancel Awards that are Options or SARs and give the Participants who are the holders of such Awards notice and opportunity to exercise prior to such cancellation.

(d) No adjustment authorized by this Section 9 shall be made in such manner that would result in the Plan or any amounts or benefits payable hereunder to fail to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A, and any such adjustment that may reasonably be expected to result in such failure shall be of no force or effect.

10. Clawback for Misconduct or Restatement. In the event of misconduct by a Participant which results in material harm to the Company, if any of the Company’s financial statements are restated as a result of errors, omissions, or fraud, the Board may (in its sole discretion, but acting in good faith) direct that the Company recover all or a portion of any such Award made to any, all or any class of Participant with respect to any fiscal year of the Company the financial results of which are negatively affected by such restatement. The amount to be recovered from any Participant shall be (i) the amount by which the affected Award or payment exceeded the amount that would have been payable to such Participant had the financial statements been initially filed as restated, (ii) shares purchased pursuant to exercise of an option that is subject to clawback hereunder or (iii) any greater or lesser amount (including, but not limited to, the entire Award) that the Board shall determine. The Board may determine to recover different amounts from different Participants or different classes of Participants on such basis as it shall deem appropriate. In no event shall the amount to be recovered by the Company from a Participant be less than the amount required to be repaid or recovered as a matter of law. The Board shall determine whether the Company shall effect any such recovery (i) by seeking repayment from the Participant, (ii) by reducing (subject to applicable law and the terms and conditions of the applicable plan, program or arrangement) the amount that would otherwise be payable to the Participant under any compensatory plan, program or arrangement maintained by the Company or a Subsidiary, (iii) by withholding payment of future increases in compensation (including the payment of any discretionary bonus amount) or grants of compensatory awards that would otherwise have been made in accordance with the Company’s otherwise applicable compensation practices, or (iv) by any combination of the foregoing or otherwise.

11. Award Payment; Dividends and Dividend Equivalents.

(a) General. Payment of Awards may be made in the form of cash or Common Stock, or a combination thereof, and may include such restrictions as the Committee shall determine, including, but not limited to, in the case of Common Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions. For a Restricted Stock Award, the certificates evidencing the Shares (to the extent that such Shares are so evidenced) shall contain appropriate legends and restrictions that describe the terms and conditions of the restrictions applicable thereto. For a Restricted Stock Unit Award that may be settled in shares of Common Stock, the shares of Common Stock that may be issued at the end of the vesting period shall be evidenced by book entry registration or in such other manner as the Committee may determine.

(b) Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. Rights to dividends and Dividend Equivalents may be extended to and made part of any Stock Award, subject in each case to such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee may establish; provided, however, that no such dividends or Dividend Equivalents shall be paid with respect to unvested Stock Awards, including Stock Awards subject to Performance Goals. Dividends and/or Dividend Equivalents shall not be made part of any Options or SARs.

12. Amendment. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the right to amend Award Agreements issued to a Participant, subject to the Participant’s consent if such amendment is not favorable to the Participant, except that the consent of the Participant shall not be required for any amendment made pursuant to Sections 8 and 9 of the Plan, as applicable.

13. Assignability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and expressly provided for in an Award Agreement, no Award or any other benefit under the Plan shall be assignable or otherwise transferable except (1) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or (2) pursuant to a domestic relations order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction that is not contrary to the terms and conditions of the Plan or applicable Award and in a form acceptable to the Committee. The Committee may prescribe and include in applicable Award Agreements other restrictions on transfer. Any attempted assignment of an Award or any other benefit under the Plan in violation of this Section 13 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Award may be transferred for value or consideration.

14. No Commitment to Retain. The grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall not be construed to imply or to constitute evidence of any agreement, express or implied, on the part of the Company or any Subsidiary to retain the Participant in the employ or service of the Company or a Subsidiary and/or as a member of the Board or in any other capacity, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate the services of a Participant.

15. Securities Law Restrictions. Unless the Shares received pursuant to an Award are covered by a then current registration statement or a notification under Regulation A under the Securities Act, each Award Agreement shall contain the Participant’s acknowledgment in form and substance satisfactory to the Company that: (i) such Shares are being purchased for investment and not for distribution or resale (other than a distribution or resale

which, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, may be made without violating the registration provisions of the Securities Act); (ii) the Participant has been advised and understands that (A) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and are subject to restrictions on transfer, and (B) the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares under the Securities Act or to take any action which would make available to the Participant any exemption from such registration; (iii) such Shares may not be transferred without compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws and any other restrictions contained in the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement; and (iv) an appropriate legend referring to the foregoing restrictions on transfer and any other restrictions imposed under the Award Agreement may be endorsed on the certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that issuance of Shares should be delayed pending (1) registration under federal or state securities laws, (2) the receipt of an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that an appropriate exemption from such registration is available, (3) the listing or inclusion of the Shares on any securities exchange or an automated quotation system, or (4) the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body whose consent or approval is necessary in connection with the issuance of such Shares, the Company may defer issuance of any Shares under an Award Agreement granted hereunder until any of the events described in this sentence has occurred.

16. Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall have the right to deduct applicable taxes from any Award payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or vesting of cash or shares of Common Stock under the Plan, an appropriate amount of cash or number of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for payment of required withholding taxes or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes; provided, however, that the number of shares of Common Stock withheld for payment of required withholding taxes must equal no more than the required minimum withholding taxes. The Committee may also permit withholding to be satisfied by the transfer to the Company of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the holder of the Award with respect to which withholding is required. If shares of Common Stock are used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be valued based on the Fair Market Value when the tax withholding is required to be made.

17. Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to any Shares subject to an Award unless and until such Participant has satisfied all requirements applicable to such Award, in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.

18. Interpretation. The Plan is intended to enable transactions under the Plan with respect to directors and officers (within the meaning of Section 16(a) under the Exchange Act) to satisfy the conditions of said Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or its successors; to the extent that any provision of the Plan would cause a conflict with such conditions or would cause the administration of the Plan as provided in Section 3 to fail to satisfy the conditions of said Rule 16b-3, such provision shall be deemed null and void to the extent permitted by applicable law. This Section shall not be applicable if no class of the Company’s equity securities is then registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

19. Code Section 409A.

(a) Awards made under the Plan are intended to comply with or be exempt from Code Section 409A, and ambiguous provisions hereof, if any, shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent. No payment, benefit or consideration shall be substituted for an Award if such action would result in the imposition of taxes under Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if any Plan provision or Award under the Plan would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Code Section 409A, that Plan provision or Award shall be reformed, to the extent permissible under Code Section 409A, to avoid imposition of the additional tax, and no such action shall be deemed to adversely affect the Participant’s rights to an Award.

(b) Unless the Committee provides otherwise in an Award Agreement, each Restricted Stock Unit Award or Cash Award (or portion thereof if the Award is subject to a vesting schedule) shall be settled no later than the 15th day of the third month after the end of the first calendar year in which the Award (or such portion thereof) is no longer subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. If the Committee determines that a Restricted Stock Unit Award or a Cash Award is intended to be subject to Code Section 409A, the applicable Award Agreement shall include terms that are designed to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A.

(c) If the Participant is identified by the Company as a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) on the date on which the Participant has a “separation from service” (other than due to death) within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h), any Award payable or settled on account of a separation from service that is deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A shall be paid or settled on the earliest of (1) the first business day following the expiration of six months from the Participant’s separation from service, (2) the date of the Participant’s death, or (3) such earlier date as complies with the requirements of Code Section 409A.

20. Amendment or Termination of the Plan. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan, but no such amendment or termination shall be made which would adversely affect any outstanding Awards without the written consent of the affected Participants. In addition, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 422 of the Code, Section 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or any other applicable law or regulation, including the requirements of any stock exchange or national market system upon which the Common Stock is then listed, the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment or termination, except for certain changes which do not need shareholder approval, including, without limitation: (i) minor changes of a “housekeeping nature”; (ii) amending Awards under the Plan, including without limitation with respect to any option period (provided that the period during which an option is exercisable does not exceed ten years from the date the option is granted and that such option is not held by an Insider), vesting period, exercise method and frequency, subscription price (provided that the Award is not held by an Insider) and method of determining the subscription price, assignability and effect of termination of a participant’s employment or engagement or cessation of the participant’s directorship; (iii) accelerating vesting or extending the expiration date of any Award (provided that such Award is not held by an Insider), provided that the period during which an Award is exercisable does not exceed ten years from the date the Award is granted; (iv) changing the terms and conditions of any financial assistance which may be provided by the Company to participants to facilitate the purchase of Common Stock under the Plan; and (v) adding a cashless exercise feature, payable in cash or securities, whether or not providing for a full deduction of the number of underlying Common Stock from the Plan reserve.

21. Effective Date. The Plan is effective as of the Effective Date. The grant of Incentive Stock Options under the Plan is conditioned on the approval of the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan was so adopted by the Board.

22. Choice of Law. The Plan and the Awards granted under the Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York (including Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York but otherwise without regard to conflicts of Laws principles).

Exhibit 5.1

January 16, 2025

First Majestic Silver Corp.

925 West Georgia Street, Suite 1800

Vancouver, British Columbia

V6C 3L2

Dear Sirs/Mesdames:

We are Canadian counsel to First Majestic Silver Corp., a British Columbia corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the proposed offering and sale of up to 8,242,244 common shares in the capital of the Company, without par value (the “Shares”), issuable pursuant to the 2023 amended and restated long-term incentive plan (the “Plan”) of Gatos Silver, Inc. (“Gatos”) which Plan we understand was assumed by the Company pursuant to that certain merger (the “Merger”) under the laws of the State of Delaware which was completed as of the date hereof among the Company, Gatos and Ocelot Transaction Corporation. The Shares are included in a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on the date hereof.

This opinion is being delivered in connection with the Registration Statement, to which this opinion appears as an exhibit.

For the purposes of the opinions expressed below, we have examined such statutes, regulations, public and corporate records and other documents and have made such investigations and considered such questions of law as we have considered necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed. We have also examined the Registration Statement and the Plan, which has been filed with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. We have relied on a certificate of an officer of the Company as to various questions of fact material to our opinion that we have not verified independently.

In all such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the authority and legal capacity of all persons signing documents reviewed by us, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the completeness and conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as true, certified or notarial copies or as reproductions (including documents received by electronic transmission), all documents submitted to us have been executed in the form reviewed by us and have not been amended or modified since the date they were submitted to us, by written or oral agreement or by conduct of the parties thereto, or otherwise, and the truthfulness and accuracy of all certificates of public officials and officers of the Company. We have also assumed that: (a) the awards granted under the Plan were duly granted by the board of directors of Gatos (the “Gatos Board”), a committee of the Gatos Board (a “Gatos Committee”) or pursuant to a delegation of authority granted by the Gatos Board or Gatos Committee, all in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and the terms of the Plan; (b) the Merger was effective as of the date hereof in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware; and (c) pursuant to the Merger the Plan was assumed by the Company and all outstanding options to acquire common stock of Gatos were exchanged for options to acquire Shares.

We are solicitors qualified to practice law in British Columbia and we express no opinion as to any laws or any matters governed by any laws other than the laws of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. The opinions expressed herein are given as at the date hereof and are based upon, and subject to, legislation and regulations in effect as of the date hereof and the facts as of the date hereof. We specifically disclaim any obligation, and make no undertaking to supplement our opinions herein, as changes in the law occur and facts come to our attention that could affect such opinions, or otherwise advise any person of any change in law or fact which may come to our attention after the date hereof.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that an aggregate of up to 8,242,244 Shares, when issued from time to time, upon the due exercise of options in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the terms and conditions of any agreement governing any such options, including the payment of any option price applicable thereto, will be validly issued by the Company as fully paid and non-assessable common shares in the capital of the Company.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving the foregoing consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the U.S. Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

This opinion is for the benefit of the addressee in connection with the transaction to which it relates, and may not be relied upon, used, or quoted from or referred to in any other documents, by any other person or for any other purpose without our express written consent.

Exhibit 23.1
