Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 1741 of the Pennsylvania corporate Law, the PBCL, empowers a corporation to indemnify any officer or director acting in his or her capacity as a representative of the corporation who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action or proceeding against expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with such action or proceeding whether the action was instituted by a third-party or arose by or in the right of the corporation. The PBCL limits the ability of a corporation to indemnify its officers and directors for conduct constituting willful misconduct or recklessness, or acts in violation of criminal statute.
Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our director and officers against any liability (including any damage, judgment, amount paid in settlement, fine, penalty, punitive damages, excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan, or cost or expense of any nature (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements)) incurred in connection with any proceeding (including any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, appeal or other proceeding of any nature, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether formal or informal, and whether brought by or in our right, a class of its security holders or otherwise) in which the director or officer may be involved as a party or otherwise by reason of the fact that he or she is or was serving in such person's capacity as our director or officer if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was not unlawful, except: (a) where such indemnification is expressly prohibited by applicable law; or (b) where the conduct of the director or officer has been finally determined (i) to constitute willful misconduct or recklessness within the meaning of Section 1746(b) of PBCL or any superseding provision of law sufficient in the circumstances to bar indemnification against liabilities arising from the conduct; or (ii) to be based upon or attributable to the receipt by the director or officer from us of a personal benefit to which the director or officer is not legally entitled.
2
Our bylaws further provide that any indemnification will be made by us only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth herein. The determination will be made: (a) by our Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action or proceeding, (b) if such a quorum is not obtainable or if obtainable and a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (c) by our shareholders.
If the director or officer is entitled to indemnification in respect of a portion, but not all, of any liabilities to which such person may be subject, we will indemnify the director or officer to the maximum extent for such portion of the liabilities.
The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent will not of itself create a presumption that the director or officer did not act in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
A director or officer will be entitled to indemnification within 30 days after a written request for indemnification has been delivered to our Secretary. If a written request is not paid in full by us within 30 days after such claim has been received by us, the director or officer may at any time thereafter initiate an action to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the director or officer will also be entitled to be paid the expenses of prosecuting such action.
We will not indemnify a director or officer for any liability incurred in a proceeding initiated (which will not be deemed to include counter claims or affirmative defenses) or participated in as an intervenor or amicus curiae by the person seeking indemnification unless such initiation of or participation in the proceeding is authorized, either before or after its commencement, by our Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, subject to certain exceptions.
To the extent that a director or officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 1741 or Section 1742 of PBCL or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person will be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.
We will pay the expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred in good faith by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by us. The financial ability of a director or officer to repay an advance will not be a prerequisite to the making of such advance.
Further, our bylaws provide that the board of directors may authorize us to purchase and maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance, insuring against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in his capacity or arising out of his status as a director and/or officer to the extent authorized by law.

Power of Attorney (included as part of the Registrant's signature page)
The Company hereby represents that the U.S. Plan is covered by an IRS opinion letter that the U.S. Plan meets the requirements of Section 4.01(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and will undertake to make all changes by the IRS to maintain such status.  The Company also hereby represents that the Canadian Plan is in compliance with and meets the requirements of Section 147 of the Income Tax Act and will undertake to make all changes by the Canadian Revenue Agency to maintain such status.
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 this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in this 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 (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required in a post-effective amendment is incorporated by reference from periodic reports filed by the Registrant under the Exchange Act.
4
(2)        That, for determining 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 the securities at that time 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.
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.
(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 this 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.
5
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the city of Toronto, Province of Ontario, Canada, on November 4, 2021.
