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

S-8
filed on June 4, 2020
(Commission File
No. 333-238934)
(collectively, the "Original Registration Statements").
Pursuant to General Instructions E to Form
S-8
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), the contents of the Original Registration Statements, including any amendments thereto or filings incorporated therein by reference, are incorporated herein by reference and made part of this Registration Statement. Any
items in the Original Registration Statements not expressly changed hereby shall be as set forth in the Original Registration Statements.

will be sent or given to

PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3.
Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
The following documents, which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") by the Registrant are
incorporated herein by reference into this Registration Statement:
(a) the Registrant's Annual Report on
Form
10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (File
No. 001-35066),
filed with the Commission on February 22, 2023 (the "2022 Annual
Report");
(b) all other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act") since the end of the fiscal year covered by the 2022 Annual Report; and
(c) the description of the Common Shares contained in
Exhibit
 4.4
to the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Commission on February 19, 2020, including any amendment or report filed for the
purposes of updating such description.
In addition, all documents filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of
the Exchange Act subsequent to the effective date of this Registration Statement, but prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement, which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters
all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be part thereof from the date of filing of such documents.
Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes
such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's Second Amended and Restated
By-Law
No. 1 contains an indemnification of its
directors/officers, former directors/officers and persons who have acted at its request to be a director/officer of an entity in which the Company is a shareholder or creditor, to indemnify them, to the extent permitted by the
Canada Business
Corporations Act
, against expenses (including legal fees), judgments, fines and any amount actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding in which the directors and/or officers are sued as a result of
their service, if they acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company. The nature of the indemnification prevents the Company from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount it could be required
to pay to counterparties. The Company has purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance. No amount has been accrued in the consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2022 with respect to this indemnity.
The Registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance with an aggregate policy limit of U.S. $70 million
subject to a deductible of U.S. $2,500,000 in respect of securities law claims and U.S. $500,000 in respect of all other claims.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made of securities registered hereby, 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 this 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) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 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 this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
Provided, however,
that the undertakings set forth in 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 Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference
in this 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; and
(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 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)
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.
