The purchase price for the Newly Issued Shares, the exercise price for the Warrant, the number of Newly Issued Shares to be purchased hereunder and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be subject to adjustment if the Company (i) at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, in which case the purchase price for the Newly Issued Shares and the exercise price for the Warrant in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Newly Issued Shares to be purchased hereunder and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately increased or (ii) if the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the purchase price for the Newly Issued Shares and the exercise price for the Warrant in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Newly Issued Shares to be purchased hereunder and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately decreased.
1.2.

This Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and by general principles of equity. Other than approval of the AMEX Application, no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency or commission or other governmental authority or instrumentality is required by or with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for such consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings as may be required under applicable state securities laws and the securities laws of any foreign country and such other consents, authorizations, filings, approvals and registrations which, if not obtained or made, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company and would not prevent, or materially alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
2.4.

2.5.
COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER DOCUMENTS. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and compliance with the terms and provisions hereof will not conflict with or result in a breach of the terms and conditions of, or constitute a default under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws or of any contract or agreement to which the Company is now a party, except where such conflict, breach or default of any such contract or agreement, either individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations and would not prevent, or materially alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
2.6.
BROKER’S OR FINDERS’ FEE. The Company has not incurred, nor will it incur, directly or indirectly, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or investment bankers’ fees or any similar charges in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

ENFORCEABILITY. This Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and by general principles of equity.
3.3.
INVESTIGATION.

3.4.
ACCREDITED INVESTOR. The Investor is an “Accredited Investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
3.5.
PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. This Agreement is made with the Investor in reliance upon the Investor’s representation to the Company, which by the Investor’s execution of this Agreement the Investor hereby confirms, that the Newly Issued Shares and the Warrant will be acquired for investment for the Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof other than in conformity with the Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and that the Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same, other than a transfer to a nominee holder or a majority-owned affiliate.
3.6.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Investor understands that the Newly Issued Shares he is purchasing, along with the Warrant and the Common Stock underlying the Warrant, are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances.

The Investor understands and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any document (including any ancillary agreements) if, following the Investor’s investment in the Newly Issued Shares, it is discovered that the investment is or has become a Prohibited Investment, such investment may immediately be redeemed by the Company or otherwise be subject to the remedies required by law, and the Investor shall have no claim against any Indemnitee for any form of damages as a result of such forced redemption or other action.
(f)
Upon the written request from the Company, the Investor agrees to provide all information to the Company to enable the Company to comply with all applicable anti-money laundering statutes, rules, regulations and policies.

A delay in giving notice shall only relieve the Indemnifying Party of liability to the extent the Indemnifying Party suffers actual prejudice because of the delay. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option and expense, to participate in the defense of such a proceeding or claim, but not to control the defense, negotiation or settlement thereof, which control shall at all times rest with the Indemnified Party, unless the proceeding or claim involves only money damages, not an injunction or other equitable relief, and unless the Indemnifying Party:

If the Indemnifying Party does assume control of the defense of such a proceeding or claim, it will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party settle the proceeding or claim or consent to entry of any judgment relating thereto which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant to the Indemnified Party a release from all liability in respect of the proceeding or claim. The Parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such proceeding or claim.

WARRANT AGREEMENT
WARRANT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of April 9, 2007, between Ableauctions.com, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), and Abdul Ladha, an individual (the “Investor”).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue to the Investor warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,823,525 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”); and
WHEREAS, the Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement are being issued by the Company to the Investor in conjunction with the execution of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement of even date herewith between the Company and the Investor;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the agreements herein set forth and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.
Grant. The Investor is hereby granted the right to purchase, at any time from April 9, 2007 until 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on April 9, 2017 (the “Warrant Exercise Term”), up to an aggregate of 8,823,525 Shares at the exercise price (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 hereof) of $0.20 per Share.
2.
Warrant Certificates. The warrant certificates (the “Warrant Certificates”) delivered and to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be in the form set forth as Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as required or permitted by this Agreement.
3.
Exercise of Warrants. The Warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.20 per Share, payable in cash or by check to the order of the Company, or any combination of cash or check, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 hereof. Upon surrender of the Warrant Certificate with the duly executed Form of Election to Purchase in the form set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof, together with payment of the Exercise Price (as hereinafter defined) for the Shares purchased at the Company’s principal offices, currently located at 1963 Lougheed Highway, Suite 200, Coquitlam, British Columbia, the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate (“Holder” or “Holders”) shall be entitled to receive a certificate or certificates for the Shares so purchased. The purchase rights represented by each Warrant Certificate are exercisable at the option of the Holder thereof, in whole or in part (but not as to fractional shares of the Common Stock underlying the Warrants). In the case of the purchase of less than all the Shares purchasable under any Warrant Certificate, the Company shall cancel said Warrant Certificate upon the surrender thereof and shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor for the balance of the Shares purchasable thereunder.
4.
Issuance of Certificates.
4.1
Issuance. Upon the exercise of the Warrants, the issuance of certificates for the Shares shall be made forthwith (and in any event within 5 business days thereafter) without any charge to the Holder thereof including, without limitation, any tax (other than income taxes) which may be payable in respect of the issuance thereof, and such certificates shall (subject to the provisions of Section 5 hereof) be issued in the name of, or in such names as may be directed by, the Holder thereof; provided however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificates in a name other than that of the Holder and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
4.2
Form of Certificates. The Warrant Certificates and certificates representing the Shares shall be executed on behalf of the Company by such officer or officers as are permitted or required to execute such certificates on behalf of the Company by the Company’s by-laws and applicable law. Warrant Certificates shall be dated the date of execution by the Company upon initial issuance, division, exchange, substitution or transfer.
i.
The Warrant Certificates shall bear a legend substantially similar to the following:
NEITHER THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. ANY SUCH TRANSFER MAY ALSO BE SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

5.
Restriction on Transfer of Warrants. The Holder of a Warrant Certificate, by its acceptance thereof, covenants and agrees that the Warrants are being acquired, and any Shares will be acquired, as an investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and that the Warrants and Shares may not be sold, transferred, assigned, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements thereof. In connection with the transfer or exercise of Warrants, the transferee and Holder must agree to execute any documents which may be reasonably required by counsel to the Company to comply with the provisions of the Act and applicable state securities laws.
6.
Price.
6.1
Initial and Adjusted Exercise Price. The initial exercise price of each Warrant shall be $0.20 per Share.

6.2
Exercise Price. The term “Exercise Price” herein shall mean the initial exercise price or the adjusted exercise price, depending upon the context.
7.
Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. If outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in Common Stock shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price, the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
8.
Exchange and Replacement of Warrant Certificates.
8.1
Exchange. Each Warrant Certificate is exchangeable without expense, upon the surrender hereof by the registered Holder at the principal executive office of the Company, for a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and date representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the same number of Shares in such denominations as shall be designated by the Holder thereof at the time of such surrender.
8.2
Replacement. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of the Warrants, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor, in lieu thereof.
9.
Elimination of Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock and shall not be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock.
10.
Reservation and Listing of Securities. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of the Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price thereof, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and not subject to the preemptive rights of any shareholder.
11.

Payment of the Exercise Price may be made in cash, by certified or official bank check in immediately available funds payable to the order of the Company, or any combination of cash or check.
No Warrant may be exercised after 5:00 p.m. Pacific time, on the Expiration Date, at which time all Warrants evidenced hereby, unless exercised prior thereto, shall thereafter be void.

The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events, the Exercise Price and/or number of the Company’s securities issuable thereupon may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted.
