acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the corporation and (iii)
where a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he
had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful. However, under the Canada
Business Corporations Act, no officer or director of the Company may be indemnified with respect to
any security holder&#146;s derivative action brought pursuant to such Act unless a court of competent
jurisdiction has approved the terms of such indemnification.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The By-laws of the Company generally provide that the Company shall indemnify a director
or officer of the Company, a former director or officer of the Company, or another individual who
acts at the Company&#146;s request as a director or officer of another entity, against all costs,
charges and expenses, including any amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgement,
reasonably incurred in respect of any civil, criminal, investigative, administrative or other
action in which the individual is involved as a result of being or having been a director or
officer, or both, of the Company, or by reason of having being or having been, at the request for
the Company, a director or officer, or both, of another entity, in each case to the extent
permitted by applicable law and subject to the further conditions described below. Such indemnity
is only available if the person claiming the indemnity acted honestly and in good faith with a view
to the best interests of the Company, and in the case of a criminal or administrative action or
proceeding that is enforced by monetary penalty, the person claiming the indemnity had reasonable
grounds for believing that the conduct in question was lawful.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance in the amount of $150&nbsp;million
(Canadian) for the benefit of directors and officers of the Company. The policy contains a number
of exclusions and limitations to the coverage provided, as a result of which the Company may, under
certain circumstances, be obligated to indemnify its directors or officers for certain claims which
do not fall within the coverage provided under the policy.

Item 4. Description of Securities.
The Company's Common Shares are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Canada Business Corporations Act provides as of right that, in general, an officer or
director, as such, shall be entitled to indemnity if (i) he was not judged by a court or competent
authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything he ought to have done, (ii) he
acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the corporation and (iii)
where a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he
had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful. However, under the Canada
Business Corporations Act, no officer or director of the Company may be indemnified with respect to
any security holder's derivative action brought pursuant to such Act unless a court of competent
jurisdiction has approved the terms of such indemnification.
The By-laws of the Company generally provide that the Company shall indemnify a director
or officer of the Company, a former director or officer of the Company, or another individual who
acts at the Company's request as a director or officer of another entity, against all costs,
charges and expenses, including any amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgement,
reasonably incurred in respect of any civil, criminal, investigative, administrative or other
action in which the individual is involved as a result of being or having been a director or
officer, or both, of the Company, or by reason of having being or having been, at the request for
the Company, a director or officer, or both, of another entity, in each case to the extent
permitted by applicable law and subject to the further conditions described below. Such indemnity
is only available if the person claiming the indemnity acted honestly and in good faith with a view
to the best interests of the Company, and in the case of a criminal or administrative action or
proceeding that is enforced by monetary penalty, the person claiming the indemnity had reasonable
grounds for believing that the conduct in question was lawful.
The Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance in the amount of $150 million
(Canadian) for the benefit of directors and officers of the Company. The policy contains a number
of exclusions and limitations to the coverage provided, as a result of which the Company may, under
certain circumstances, be obligated to indemnify its directors or officers for certain claims which
do not fall within the coverage provided under the policy.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.

Item 9. 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;
(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 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set froth
in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" 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) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic
reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 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 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.
Table of Contents
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby further 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 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.
(c)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be delivered with the
prospectus, to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report,
to security holders that is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant
to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Exchange Act; and, where
interim financial information required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X is not
set forth in the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the
prospectus is sent or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by
reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information.
(d)
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.
