Titan Medical Inc.
170 University Avenue, Suite 1000
Toronto, Ontario M5H 3B3
 
Attention: David J. McNally, President and Chief Executive Officer
 
Dear Sir:
 
Bloom Burton Securities Inc. (the “Agent”) understands that Titan Medical Inc. (the “Corporation”) proposes to issue and sell a minimum of 33,333,333 units of the Corporation (the “Offered Units”) and up to a maximum of 55,555,556 Offered Units at a price of US $0.45 per Offered Unit (the “Offering Price”) for aggregate gross proceeds of a minimum of US $15,000,000 (the “Minimum Offering”) up to a maximum of US $25,000,000 (the “Maximum Offering”). Each Offered Unit shall consist of (i) one Common Share (as defined herein) (a “Unit Share”) and (ii) one Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant shall be issued pursuant to and subject to the terms of the Warrant Indenture (as defined herein). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share (a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of US $0.55 per Warrant Share, subject to adjustment, at any time until 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is 60 months after the Initial Closing Date (as defined herein), provided that in the event of an issuance of Common Shares, securities convertible into Common Shares or certain other issuances at a price below the then existing exercise price, the exercise price shall be adjusted to equal to the price at which such securities are issued, subject to a floor of US $0.50 per share, all as shall be provided in the Warrant Indenture. The offering of the Offered Units by the Corporation is hereinafter referred to as the “Offering”.
 
The Corporation wishes to appoint the Agent to act as its sole and exclusive agent, and to effect the sale of the Offered Units on a best efforts basis. The Agent shall be entitled to appoint a soliciting dealer group consisting of other registered dealers acceptable to the Corporation (each, a “Selling Firm”) for the purpose of arranging for purchases of the Offered Units. With respect to the offer or sale of any Offered Units in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined herein), the parties to this Agreement (as defined herein) acknowledge and agree that the Agent may appoint duly registered U.S. broker-dealers (each such Selling Firm, a “U.S. Selling Group Member”) to act as sub-agents to conduct offers and sales of the Offered Units in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States or U.S. Persons.

The Corporation has granted the Agent an option (the “Over-Allotment Option”), exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time until that date which is 30 days following the Initial Closing Date (as herein defined) (the “Over-Allotment Expiry Date”), to offer for sale such number of additional Units (the “Over–Allotment Units”) and/or Warrants (the “Over-Allotment Warrants” and together with the Over-Allotment Units, the “Over-Allotment Securities”)) as is equal to 15% of the number of Units issued under the Offering, solely to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised by the Agent in respect of: (i) Over-Allotment Units at the Offering Price; (ii) Over-Allotment Warrants at a price of US $0.36 per Over-Allotment Warrant; or (iii) any combination of Over-Allotment Units and/or Over-Allotment Warrants, provided that the aggregate number of Over-Allotment Securities does not exceed 15% of the number of Units issued under the Offering (excluding any Over-Allotment Securities). The Offered Units and the Over-Allotment Securities are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Qualified Securities”. The Common Shares that are included in the Over-Allotment Units are referred to herein as the “Over-Allotment Shares” and the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Over-Allotment Warrants (including Warrants issuable as part of the Over-Allotment Units) are referred to herein as the “Over-Allotment Warrant Shares”.
 

In consideration of the Agent’s services hereunder, the Corporation agrees to pay to the Agent on each Closing Date a fee (the “Agency Fee”) equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds realized by the Corporation in respect of the sale of the Offered Units on such Closing Date (or US $0.0315 per Unit) including any proceeds raised through the sale of Over-Allotment Securities pursuant to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. As additional consideration for its services performed under this Agreement, the Corporation shall issue to the Agent, on each Closing Date (in such name or names as the Agent may direct in writing) compensation warrants (the “Compensation Warrants”) exercisable to acquire that number of Common Shares (the “Compensation Shares”) as is equal to 7.0% of the Qualified Securities sold under the Offering on such Closing Date. Each Compensation Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, at an exercise price per Compensation Share equal to the Offering Price, subject to adjustment, at any time before 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is 24 months following the Initial Closing Date.
 
The obligation of the Corporation to pay the Agency Fee and to issue the Compensation Warrants shall arise at the Closing Time (as defined herein) against payment for the Units and the Agency Fee and Compensation Warrants shall be fully earned by the Agent at such time.
 
The completion of the Offering may occur in one or more separate closings on one or more dates (each, a “Closing Date”) as the Corporation and the Agent may agree. Provided that the Minimum Offering is subscribed for, it is expected that the first Closing Date will occur on the Initial Closing Date.

If subscriptions for the Minimum Offering have not been received within 10 days following the date of the Final Receipt (as defined herein), the Offering will not continue and the subscription proceeds will be returned to subscribers, without interest or deduction. In any event, the total period of the distribution will not end more than 45 days from the date of the Final Receipt. Should a Closing occur in respect of the Minimum Offering, one or more additional Closings, if necessary, may occur until the earlier of the Maximum Offering being subscribed and the expiry of the 45-day period.

It is understood that the Offered Units will be offered to Purchasers (as defined herein) resident in: (i) each of the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario and such other jurisdictions in Canada as mutually agreed upon by the Corporation and the Agent (collectively, the “Canadian Selling Jurisdictions”); (ii) the United States (as defined herein) in a public offering registered on Form F-10; and (iii) jurisdictions other than the Canadian Selling Jurisdictions and the United States as may mutually be agreed to by the Corporation and the Agent (collectively with the Canadian Selling Jurisdictions and the United States, the “Selling Jurisdictions”), on a private placement basis, provided that the Corporation is not required to file a prospectus, registration statement or other disclosure document or become subject to continuing obligations in such other jurisdictions, in each case in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

The Agent agrees to use its best efforts to sell the Offered Units, but it is hereby understood and agreed that the Agent shall act as agent only and is under no obligation to purchase any of the Offered Units, although the Agent may subscribe for the Offered Units if it so desires. The Offering will be subject to subscriptions being received for the Minimum Offering. All funds received by the Agent will be held in trust until the Minimum Offering has been attained. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, all subscription funds received by the Agent will be returned to the Purchasers if the Minimum Offering is not attained by the Closing Time.

Any comparables shall be redacted from the template version in accordance with NI 44-101 prior to filing such template version with the Canadian Securities Regulators and a complete template version containing such comparables and any disclosure relating to the comparables, if any, shall be delivered to the Canadian Securities Regulators by the Corporation.

The Corporation and the Agent, on a several basis, covenant and agree:
 
 
(a)
not to provide any potential investor with any marketing materials unless a template version of such marketing materials has been filed by the Corporation with the Canadian Securities Regulators and, if required by U.S. Securities Laws, the SEC, on or before the day such marketing materials are first provided to any potential investor;

any information or statement (except any information or statement relating solely to or provided by the Agent) contained in the Offering Documents, 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 Agent and provided by the Agent) 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 Agent and provided by the Agent) 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 inquiry, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened by any securities regulatory authority, stock exchange or by any other competent authority, based upon any misrepresentation (as defined in the Securities Act (Ontario)) or alleged misrepresentation (except a misrepresentation relating solely to the Agent and provided by the Agent) in the Offering Documents (except any document or material delivered or filed solely by the Agent) based upon any failure or alleged failure to comply with Applicable Securities Laws (other than any failure or alleged failure to comply by the Agent) preventing and restricting the trading in or the sale of the Offered Units in any of the Selling Jurisdictions;
 

 (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
 

 (e)
material 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 or thereunder,
 
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.
 
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 the 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 judgement that has become non-appealable to have resulted from the Indemnified Party’s breach of this Agreement, or the gross negligence, wilful misconduct, fraud or dishonesty 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 wilful 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.
 
The Corporation agrees to waive any right the Corporation might have of first requiring the Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any other right, power, remedy or security or claim payment from any other person before claiming under this indemnity.
 
In case any Claim is brought against an Indemnified Party, 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 acceptable to the Indemnified Parties affected and the payment of all 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 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 or delayed. No Indemnified Party shall be obliged to enter into any settlement which does not provide a complete release of such Indemnified Party from all further obligations to the claimant.
 
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
 

 (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 Agent as trustee for each of the other Indemnified Parties of the Corporation’s covenants under this indemnity with respect to such persons and the Agent agrees to accept such trust and to hold and enforce such covenants on behalf of such persons.
 
The Corporation agrees to immediately reimburse the Agent monthly for the time spent by an Indemnified Party in connection with any Claim at their reasonable per diem rates. The Corporation also agrees that if any Claim shall be brought against, or an investigation commenced in respect of the Corporation or the Corporation and the Indemnified Parties shall be required to testify, participate or respond in respect of 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, the Agent shall have the right to employ its own counsel in connection therewith and the Corporation will immediately reimburse the Agent monthly for the time spent by an Indemnified Party in connection therewith at their reasonable per diem rates together with such fees and disbursements and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as may be incurred, including the fees and disbursements of the Agent’s counsel.
 
14.

All reasonable expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Agent and all fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent payable pursuant to the foregoing shall be deducted from the aggregate purchase price for the Qualified Securities in accordance with Section 8.
 
15.
Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements
 
The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Corporation contained in this Agreement and in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the purchase and sale of the Qualified Securities shall be true and correct at the Closing Time and shall survive the purchase of the Qualified Securities and shall continue in full force and effect until the later of: (i) three years following the Closing Date; and (ii) the latest date under the Applicable Securities Laws in which a Purchaser of Qualified Securities is resident or, if the Applicable Securities Laws do not specify such a date, the latest date under the Limitations Act, 2002 (Ontario).
 
16.
Conflict of Interest
 
The Corporation acknowledges that the Agent and its affiliates carry on a range of businesses, including providing stockbroking, investment advisory, research, investment management and custodial services to clients and trading in financial products as agent or principal. It is possible that the Agent and other entities in its group that carry on those businesses may hold long or short positions in securities of companies or other entities, which are or may be involved in the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and effect transactions in those securities for their own account or for the account of their respective clients. The Corporation agrees that these divisions and entities may hold such positions and effect such transactions without regard to the Corporation’s interests under this Agreement.
 
 
17.
Fiduciary
 
The Corporation hereby acknowledges that the Agent is acting solely as agent in connection with the offer and sale of the Offered Units. The Corporation further acknowledges that the Agent is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm’s length basis, and in no event do the parties intend that the Agent act or be responsible as a fiduciary to the Corporation, its management, shareholders or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Agent may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of such offer and sale of the Corporation’s securities, either before or after the date hereof. The Agent hereby expressly disclaims 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 Agent 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 Agent to the Corporation regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, 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. The Corporation and the Agent agree that the Agent is acting as principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Corporation and the Agent has not, and the Agent will not assume, any advisory responsibility in favour of the Corporation with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Agent has advised or is currently advising the Corporation on other matters). The Corporation hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Corporation may have against the Agent with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary duty to the Corporation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
