  ITEM 6.
  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
  Under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "Corporations Act"), 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, 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 that association with the Registrant or other entity, provided (i) that the director, officer or individual, as the case may be, acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant or to the best
  interest of the other entity for which the individual acted as 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, the individual had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful. A Registrant may advance moneys to a director, officer or other individual for the costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding referred to
  above. The individual is required to repay the moneys if he or she does not fulfil the conditions above. Such indemnification may be made or moneys advanced in connection with an action by or on behalf of the Registrant or such other entity to
  procure a judgment in its favour only with court approval. An individual is entitled to indemnification from the Registrant in respect of all costs, charges, and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with any civil, criminal,
  administrative, investigative or other proceeding to which the individual is subject because of the individual's association with the Registrant or other entity, if the individual seeking the indemnity (i) was not judged by the court or
  other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the individual ought to have done and (ii) fulfilled the conditions set forth above.
  The
  by-laws
  of the Registrant provide that, subject to the limitations
  and provisions contained in the Corporations Act, the Registrant shall indemnify each director, each officer, each former director, each former officer and each 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 and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including without limitation, each 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 or being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or such body corporate,
  if he or she acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the Registrant's best interests 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 his or her conduct was lawful.
  The Registrant maintains directors' and
  officers' liability insurance which, subject to the provisions contained in the policy, protects the directors and officers, as such, against all claims during the term of their office provided they acted honestly and in good faith with a view
  to the best interests of the Registrant.
  ITEM 7.
  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

  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 1933 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 this 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 a prospectus
  filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent 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) shall 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated
  by reference in the registration statement.
  (2)
  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 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 liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
  applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
  statement relating to the securities offered herein, 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 of 1933 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 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.
