Item 6.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Under the
Business Corporations Act
(Ontario) (the "OBCA"), the Registrant may indemnify a director or officer of the Registrant, a former director or officer of the Registrant or another individual who acts or acted at the Registrant's request as a director or officer or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity:
(a)           against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of the association with the Registrant or other entity as described above; and
3
(b)            with court approval, against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with an action brought by or on behalf of the Registrant or another entity to obtain a judgment in its favor, to which the individual is made a party because of the individual's association with the Registrant or other entity as described above;
provided
, in all cases, such individual (i) acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at the Registrant's request, and (ii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, such individual had reasonable grounds for believing that the individual's conduct was lawful.
In addition, the Registrant may advance money to a director, officer or other individual for the costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding referred to in (a) and, with court approval, (b) above but the individual is required to repay the money to the Registrant if  the individual did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at the Registrant's request.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a director or officer of the Registrant, a former director or officer of the Registrant or another individual who acts or acted at the Registrant's request as a director or officer
,
or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity
,
is entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with the defence of
any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of the individual's association with the Registrant or other entity as described above
,
if the individual seeking the indemnity, (i) was not judged by a court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the individual ought to have done and such individual, (ii) acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at the Registrant's request, and (iii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, such individual had reasonable grounds for believing that the individual's conduct was lawful.
Subject to the limitations contained in the OBCA, the By-laws of the Registrant provide that every director or officer of the Registrant, every former director or officer of the Registrant
,
or a person who acts or acted at the Registrant's request as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the Registrant is or was a shareholder or creditor, and his or her heirs, executors, administrators and other legal personal representatives shall, from time to time, be indemnified and saved harmless by the Registrant from and against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him or her in respect of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or body corporate of which the Registrant is or was a shareholder or creditor
,
if (i) he or she acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant, and (ii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, such director or officer had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful.
In addition, as is customary for many public corporations, the Registrant has entered into indemnity agreements (the "Indemnity Agreements") with its directors and certain senior officers whereby the Company agreed, subject to applicable law, to indemnify those persons against all costs, charges and expenses which they may sustain or incur in third party actions if: such director or officer complied with his or her fiduciary duties; and in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he or she had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful.  The Indemnity Agreements further require the Registrant to pay interim costs and expenses of the director or officer subject to the proviso that the director or officer undertake to repay such costs and expenses if the outcome of any litigation or proceeding establishes that the director or officer was not entitled to indemnification.
The Registrant also maintains insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers against liability in their respective capacities as directors and officers of the Registrant
.
The directors and officers are not required to pay any premium in respect of the insurance.  The policy contains standard industry exclusions.

Item 9.   Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(i)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement 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;
(ii)
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; and
(iii)
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
5
(and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to 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.
(h)
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.
