Indemnification
      of Directors and Officers.
The
      By-laws of the Company provide that, subject to Section 124 of the
Canada
      Business Corporations Act
,
      the
      Company shall indemnify a director or officer of the Company, a former director
      or officer of the Company or a person who acts or acted at the Company's request
      as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the Company is or was
      a
      shareholder or creditor, and his/her heirs and legal representatives, against
      all costs, charges, and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action
      or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him/her in respect of certain
      actions or proceedings to which he/she is made a party by reason of his/her
      office, if
a.
      he/she
      acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the
      Corporation; and
b.
      in the
      case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced
      by a
      monetary penalty, he/she had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct
      was lawful.
The
      Company shall also indemnify any such person in such other circumstances as
      the
Canada
      Business Corporations Act
or law
      permits or requires.
The
      Company's officers and directors are covered by insurance (with certain
      exceptions and limitations) that indemnifies them against losses for which
      the
      Company grants them indemnification and for which they become legally obligated
      to pay on account of claims made against them for "wrongful acts" committed
      before or during the policy period.
The
      Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each director and
      executive officer which provide indemnification under certain circumstances
      for
      acts and omissions that may not be covered by any directors' and officers'
liability insurance.

Undertakings.
(a)
The
      undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(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
      of 1933, as amended (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
      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 Securities
      and
      Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
      aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change
      in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
      Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
(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) do not apply if the
      information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
      paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed 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
      (and, where applicable, each filing of the Plans' annual reports 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.
(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 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 Act
      and
      will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
