Examples of products that are securities include: notes whose return is linked to the price increase of a reference portfolio or to an index, principal protected equity index-linked notes, and interest coupons and notes without coupons based on debt securities of an issuer. An example of a product which is not a security is a listed option or a futures contract.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

For some ETP-Debt Securities, the distribution or Public Float of the ETP-Debt Security may not be relevant to the Exchange's review, for example, where the ETP-Debt Security is convertible into the underlying securities or asset, or into cash. In such cases, the Exchange 's review will focus on the ETP Issuer and the liquidity (directly, or in the case of an index or portfolio, indirectly) of the underlying assets and/or securities. The Exchange may consider, among other things, where the underlying assets and/or securities are traded, the transparency of trading prices, distribution, float and trading volume.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(3) Term -- The issue has a term of not greater than thirty (30) years.

(4) Not Convertible Debt -- The issue must not be convertible debt of the ETP Issuer of a type contemplated in Section 2.02(7)(c).

(2) Management must act with integrity. The Exchange may review the conduct of any Insider of a Listed Issuer. The Exchange must be satisfied that the business and affairs of the Listed Issuer will be conducted with integrity and in the best interests of security holders, and that the Listed Issuer will comply with the Exchange Requirements and applicable securities and corporate laws, and the constating documents of the Listed Issuer.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

In particular, an issuer will not be approved for listing if any Insider has been convicted of fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, violations of securities legislation (other than minor violations that do not give rise to investor protection or market integrity concerns) unless the issuer severs relations with such Person to the satisfaction of the Exchange.

An issuer may not be approved for listing if any Insider has entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority or is associated with any Person who would disqualify an issuer for listing.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

An exemption may be granted from this Listing Manual where the Exchange is satisfied that the issuer is subject to substantially similar requirements as those contained in this Listing Manual.

Where an exemption has been granted to the Other Listed Issuer by the Canadian recognized exchange on which its securities are listed, the Exchange will not automatically grant a similar exemption. The Exchange will consider granting an exemption upon application by the Other Listed Issuer and upon consideration of the merits of such application.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

2.09 Foreign Issuers

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Exchange has not adopted listing requirements or procedures applicable to the listing of securities of Emerging Market Issuers. The Exchange will not accept an application to list securities of an Emerging Market Issuer until such requirements or procedures are adopted and implemented by the Exchange.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(1) In light of the increased risks associated with an application to list securities of an issuer: (i) for which no IIROC member or other suitable third party has concurrently conducted due diligence, or (ii) that does not involve a prospectus reviewed by a Canadian securities regulatory authority, the application to list securities on the Exchange will be subject to additional requirements and/or increased scrutiny by the Exchange.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

When assessing whether to impose additional requirements, the Exchange may consider the following factors:

(a) whether the issuer is an Emerging Market Issuer;

(b) the size, nature and location of the issuer's business or assets;

(c) whether the issuer is subject to analogous regulation in its home jurisdiction; and

(d) the length of time since due diligence has last been conducted by a third party (ex: by an underwriter) or since the issuer has filed a prospectus.

(2) The Exchange may require:

(a) additional submissions to be filed by the issuer or other experts, including title and other legal opinions;

The Exchange will require the issuer to provide a draft of such escrow agreement(s) to the Exchange for review prior to its execution.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

They are not required to interpret the impact of external political, economic and social developments on their affairs, but if the external development will have or has had a direct effect on their business and affairs that is both material and uncharacteristic of the effect generally experienced as a result of such development by other companies engaged in the same business or industry, Listed Issuers are urged, where practical, to explain the particular impact on them. For example, a change in government policy that affects most companies in a particular industry does not require an announcement, but if it affects only one or a few companies in a material way, an announcement should be made.

(2) A reasonable investor's investment decision may be affected by factors relating directly to the securities themselves as well as by information concerning the Listed Issuer's businessand affairs. For example, changes in a Listed Issuer's issued capital, stock splits, redemptions and dividend decisions may all have an impact upon the reasonable investor's investment decision.

(3) Actual or proposed developments that are likely to require immediate disclosure include, but are not limited to, the following:

(a) changes in security ownership that may affect control of the Listed Issuer;

(b) changes in corporate structure, such as reorganizations, amalgamations, etc.;

(c) take-over bids or issuer bids;

(d) major corporate acquisitions or dispositions;

(e) changes in capital structure;

(f) borrowing of a significant amount of funds;

(g) public or private sale of additional securities;

(h) development of new products and developments affecting the Listed Issuer's resources, technology, products or market;

(i) significant discoveries or exploration results, both positive and negative, by resource companies;

(j) entering into or loss of significant contracts;

(k) firm evidence of significant increases or decreases in near-term earnings prospects;

(l) changes in capital investment plans or corporate objectives;

(m) significant changes in management;

(n) significant litigation;

(o) major labour disputes or disputes with major contractors or suppliers;

(p) events of default under financing or other agreements; or

(q) any other developments relating to the business and affairs of the issuer that might reasonably be expected to influence or change an investment decision of a reasonable investor.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

Disclosure is only required where a development is material. Announcements of an intention to proceed with a transaction or activity should be made when a decision has been made to proceed with it by the Listed Issuer's board of directors or by senior management with the expectation of concurrence from the board of directors. However, a corporate development in respect of which no firm decision has yet been made but that is reflected in the market price may require prompt disclosure.

Forecasts of earnings and other financial forecasts need not be disclosed, but where a significant increase or decrease in earnings is indicated in the near future, such as in the next fiscal quarter, this fact must be disclosed. Forecasts should not be provided on a selective basis to certain investors not involved in the management of the affairs of the company. If disclosed, they should be generally disclosed. Reference should be made to National Instrument 51-102 with respect to disclosure of forward looking information, including future-oriented financial information and financial outlooks.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(4) If a pending transaction has been announced but has not closed, updates should be provided at least every 30 days, unless the original announcement specifies a specific date on which an update will be given. Any change that is material to the pending transaction as announced must be disclosed promptly.

5.03 Rumours and Unusual Trading Activity

(1) Rumours and unusual trading activity may influence or change the investment decision of a reasonable investor and/or the trading price of an issuer's securities. It is impractical to expect management to be aware of, and comment on, all rumours or unusual trading activity. However, when either rumours or unusual trading activity occur, the Market Regulator may request that the Listed Issuer make a clarifying statement. A trading halt may be imposed pending release of a "no corporate developments" statement.

(2) If a rumour is correct in whole or in part, or if it appears that the unusual trading activity reflects illicit trading on non-disclosed Material Information, the Market Regulator will require the Listed Issuer to make immediate disclosure of the relevant Material Information, and a trading halt may be imposed pending release and dissemination of that information.

5.04 Timing of Disclosure and Pre-Notification of the Market Regulator

(1) A Listed Issuer must disclose Material Information forthwith upon the information becoming known to management, or in the case of information previously known, forthwith upon it becoming apparent that the information is material. Immediate release of information is necessary to ensure that it is promptly available to all investors and to reduce the risk that Persons with access to that information will act upon undisclosed information.

(2) The policy of immediate disclosure frequently requires that press releases be issued during trading hours, especially when an important corporate development has occurred. When this occurs, the Listed Issuer must notify the Market Regulator prior to the issuance of a press release and must not disseminate the press release until instructed by the Market Regulator. The Market Regulator will determine whether trading in the Listed Issuer's securities should be temporarily halted. The Market Regulator will also review the proposed wording of the press release to ensure it is complete and balanced.

(3) Where a release is issued after the close of trading, the Market Regulator should be advised prior to the opening of trading the following trading day.

5.05 Dissemination and Posting of Material Information

(1) When disseminating Material Information, the news release must be transmitted to the media by the quickest possible method, and by a method that provides the widest dissemination possible. To ensure that the entire financial community is aware of the news at the same time, a wire service (or combination of services) must be used which provides national and simultaneous coverage.

(2) Dissemination of news is essential to ensure that all investors have equal and timely information. Listed Issuers must ensure appropriate dissemination of news releases, and any failure to properly disseminate news shall be deemed to be a breach of this policy and shall be grounds for suspension or Delisting of the Listed Issuer's securities. In particular, the Exchange will not consider relieving a Listed Issuer from its obligation to disseminate news properly because of cost factors.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Exchange accepts the use of any news services that meet the following criteria:

1. Dissemination of the full text of the release to the national financial press and to daily newspapers that provide regular coverage of financial news;

2. Dissemination to all Members; and

3. Dissemination to all relevant regulatory bodies.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(3) A Listed Issuer must Post all news releases (and other Material Information that is disseminated) and may also file them on its own website. This is not, however, an acceptable means of general dissemination. Listed Issuers must be careful they do not publish their press release on a website before it has been generally disseminated by a full-text service.

(4) If a Listed Issuer chooses to publish news releases or other documents required to be filed by the Exchange or by securities regulatory authorities on its website, it must publish all of them. It cannot publish only favourable information. Similarly, news releases and other filings must be clearly distinguished from marketing material that may also be on the website so that a viewer will not confuse the two.

5.06 Content of News Releases

(1) Announcements of Material Information should be factual and balanced. Unfavourable news must be disclosed just as promptly and completely as favourable news.

(2) News releases must contain sufficient detail to enable investors to assess the importance of the information to allow them to make informed investment decisions.

(3) Listed Issuers should communicate clearly and accurately the nature of the information, without including unnecessary details, exaggerated reports or editorial commentary.

(4) News releases must not be misleading.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

For example, a Listed Issuer must not announce an intention to enter into a transaction if it lacks the ability to complete the transaction or if no corporate decision has been made to proceed with the transaction.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(5) Investors and the media may wish to obtain further information concerning the announcement. All news releases must include the name of an officer or director of the Listed Issuer who is responsible for the announcement, together with the Listed Issuer's telephone number. The Listed Issuer is encouraged to also include the name and telephone number of an additional contact person.

5.07 Trading Halts for the Dissemination of Information

(1) Trading may be halted by the Market Regulator during trading hours to allow Material Information to be disseminated and allow market participants to decide if they want to change their buy or sell orders. The Decision to halt trading is the Market Regulator's, and it will not routinely halt trading for all press releases, even at the request of the Listed Issuer. It is not appropriate for a Listed Issuer to request a trading halt if it is not prepared to make an announcement forthwith.

(2) The Market Regulator may also halt trading to obtain a statement from a Listed Issuer clarifying a rumour or unusual trading that is having an effect on the market for the issuer's securities.

(3) A trading halt does not reflect on the reputation of the issuer or its management. Trading is halted for positive developments as well as negative ones.

(4) The Market Regulator will determine the time required to disseminate the news release and consequently the length of any quotation and trading halt. A trading halt will not normally last more than two hours.

(5) A trading halt will not continue for more than 24 hours unless the Market Regulator determines that re-opening trading will have a significant negative impact on market integrity.

(6) A Listed Issuer is expected to issue the news release promptly following the initiation of a trading halt. If an announcement is not forthcoming, the Market Regulator will make any determination with respect to maintaining the halt or resuming trading. In either case, the Listed Issuer should be prepared to issue a statement explaining why trading was halted and why it is not able to make an announcement.

B. When Confidentiality May Bemay be Maintained

5.08 When Information Mmay be Kept Confidential

(1) In restricted circumstances, disclosure of Material Information concerning the business and affairs of a Listed Issuer may be delayed and kept confidential temporarily, where immediate release of the information would be unduly detrimental to the interests of the Listed Issuer. The withholding of Material Information on this basis should be infrequent and can only be justified where the potential harm to the Listed Issuer or to investors caused by immediate disclosure may reasonably be considered to outweigh the undesirable consequences of delaying disclosure.

(2) In addition, section 75(3) of the Securities Act (Ontario), as supplemented by National Policy 51-102 and National Instrument 81-106, provides that where, in the opinion of the reporting issuer, the public disclosure of a material change would be unduly detrimental to the interests of the reporting issuer, or where the material change consists of a decision to implement a change made by senior management of the Listed Issuer who believe that confirmation of the decision by the board of directors is probable, the Listed Issuer may file a report disclosing a material change on a confidential basis. Non-disclosure of information filed with the Ontario Securities Commission is also provided for in section 140(2) of the Securities Act (Ontario).

(3) When a Listed Issuer requests that a material change be kept confidential, then pursuant to section 75(4) of the Securities Act (Ontario), it must advise the Ontario Securities Commission in writing within 10 days if it wishes that the information continue to be held on a confidential basis, and every 10 days thereafter until the material change is generally disclosed. The Ontario Securities Commission takes the view that it can require the Listed Issuer to disclose a confidential material change when, in its view, the benefit from public disclosure would outweigh the harm to the issuer resulting from disclosure.

(4) Listed Issuers should be guided by applicable securities legislation in determining whether a material change can be filed on a confidential basis with a securities regulatory authority.

(5) Where a decision is made to keep Material Information confidential, the Market Regulator must be immediately notified of the Listed Issuer's decision to do so. The Market Regulator must be provided with a copy of all submissions to the securities regulatory authority relating to a request to make or to continue confidential disclosure. The Market Regulator must be kept fully apprised of the nature of any discussions between the Listed Issuer and the securities regulatory authority relevant thereto, and any decision of the securities regulatory authority with respect to the ability of the Listed Issuer to make or continue confidential disclosure, or requiring the Listed Issuer to make general disclosure.

(6) Listed Issuers that are reporting issuers or equivalent in jurisdictions other than Ontario must ensure that they comply with all applicable laws in addition to this Part.

5.09 Maintaining Confidentiality

(1) Where disclosure of Material Information is delayed, the Listed Issuer must maintain complete confidentiality. In the event that such confidential information, or rumours respecting the confidential information, is divulged in any manner (other than in the necessary course of business), the Listed Issuer is required to make an immediate announcement on the matter. The Market Regulator must be notified of the announcement, in advance, in the usual manner. Any unusual market activity may mean that news of the matter is being disclosed and that certain Persons are taking advantage of it. In such a case, the Market Regulator should be advised immediately and a halt in trading will be imposed until the Listed Issuer has made disclosure of the Material Information.

(2) At any time when Material Information is being withheld from the public, the Listed Issuer is under a duty to take precautions to keep such information completely confidential. Such information should not be disclosed to any of the Listed Issuer's officers, employees or advisers, except in the necessary course of business. The directors, officers and employees of a Listed Issuer should be reminded on a regular basis that confidential information obtained in the course of their duties must not be disclosed.

5.10 Insider Trading

(1) Listed Issuers should make Insiders and others who have access to Material Information about the Listed Issuer, before it is generally disclosed, aware that trading in securities of the issuer (or securities whose market price or value varies materially with the securities of the reporting issuer), while in possession of undisclosed Material Information or tipping such information, is prohibited under applicable securities legislation and may give rise to administrative, civil and/or criminal liability.

(2) In any situation where Material Information is being kept confidential, management is under a duty to take every possible precaution to ensure that no trading whatsoever takes place by any Insiders or persons in a "special relationship" with the Listed Issuer in which use is made of such information before it is generally disclosed to the public.

(3) In the event that the Market Regulator is of the opinion that insider or improper trading may have occurred before Material Information has been disclosed and disseminated, the Market Regulator may require that an immediate announcement be made disclosing such Material Information. The Market Regulator will refer the matter to the appropriate securities regulatory authority for enforcement action.

5.11 No Selective Disclosure

(1) Disclosure of Material Information must not be made on a selective basis. The disclosure of Material Information should not occur except by means that ensure that all investors have access to the information on an equal footing. The Exchange recognizes that good corporate governance involves actively communicating with investors, brokers, analysts, and other interested parties with respect to the corporation's business and affairs, through private meetings, formal or informal conferences, or by other means. However, when communications of any nature occur other than widely disseminated press releases in accordance with this rule, Listed Issuers may not, under any circumstances, communicate Material Information to anyone, other than in the necessary course of business, in which case the party receiving the information must be instructed to keep it confidential and not to trade the Listed Issuer's securities.

(2) The board of directors of a Listed Issuer should put in place policies and procedures that will ensure that those responsible for dealing with shareholders, brokers, analysts, and other external parties are aware of their, and the Listed Issuer's, obligations with respect to the disclosure of Material Information.

(3) Should Material Information be disclosed, whether deliberately or inadvertently, other than through a widely disseminated press release in accordance with the rule, the Listed Issuer must immediately contact the Market Regulator and request a trading halt pending the widespread dissemination of the information.

PART VI. DIVIDENDS OR OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS

6.01 Dividends or Other Distributions

(1) In addition to any other requirements of this Listing Manual, Listed Issuers must notify the Exchange of any dividend or other distribution (whether regular or special) to holders of Listed Securities at least seven trading days prior to the Record Date for the distribution by way of a Notice of Stock Dividend (Form 7), if the dividend is in the form of Listed Securities, or by way of a Notice of Cash Dividend (Form 7A) for the distribution of cash or other assets. The Listed Issuer must Post the Form 7 or 7A at least seven trading days prior to the Record Date for the distribution to allow the Exchange to establish "ex" trading dates with respect to the distribution.

(2) The Exchange may use Due Bills for distributions which are subject to a condition which may not be satisfied before the normal ex-distribution trading date (i.e., two trading days before the Record Date). When Due Bills are used for conditional distributions, the condition must be met prior to the payment date. See Section 6.02.

(3) Listed Issuers must notify the Exchange of any decision to omit or defer a dividend if the omission or deferral constitutes a departure from the issuer's dividend policy.

6.02 Due Bill Trading

(1) For the purposes of this section, "distribution" means any dividend, distribution, interest, security or right to which holders of listed securities have an entitlement, based on a specific Record Date.

(2) Due Bill trading may be used at the discretion of the Exchange based on various relevant factors. However, the Exchange will normally defer ex-distribution trading and use Due Bills when the distribution per listed security represents 25% or more of the value of the listed security on the declaration date. Without the use of Due Bills, trading on an ex-distribution basis would commence two trading days prior to the Record Date for the distribution and could result in a significant adjustment of the market price of the security. Security holders will then be deprived of the value of the distribution between the ex-distribution date and the payment date. By deferring the ex-distribution date through the use of Due Bills, sellers of the listed securities during this period can realize the full value of the listed securities they hold, by selling the securities with the Due Bills attached. The use of Due Bills will also avoid confusion regarding the market value of the listed securities.

(3) When Due Bills are used, ex-distribution trading usually commences at the opening on the first trading day after the payment date. In the event that the Exchange receives late notification of the payment date and the payment date has passed, ex-distribution trading will generally commence on the first trading day following such notification.

(4) The Exchange may also use Due Bills for distributions which are subject to a condition which may not be satisfied before the normal ex-distribution trading date (i.e., two trading days before the Record Date). When Due Bills are used for conditional distributions, the condition must be met prior to the payment date.

(5) Listed Issuers should contact the Exchange to discuss the use of Due Bills well in advance of any contemplated Record Date for a distribution.

PART VII. CORPORATE FINANCE AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE CHANGES

7.01 Compliance with Disclosure Obligations

(1) Every transaction, except as noted below, governed by this Part is deemed to be "Material Information" that must be disclosed immediately under the Exchange's Timely Disclosure Policy, even if the Market Regulator determines not to halt trading for dissemination. Listed Issuers must ensure they issue a press release prior to Posting any documents required by this Part.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A grant of an Award under a Security Based Compensation Plan in the normal course is not necessarily Material Information. Listed Issuers must make a determination on a case-by-case basis.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) A Listed Issuer must give the Exchange prior notice of any issuance or potential issuance of securities of a class of Listed Securities as provided in this Part.

(3) In addition to any other requirements of this Listing Manual, Listed Issuers must notify the Exchange of any corporate action that may affect holders of Listed Securities at least seven trading days prior to the Record Date for the corporate action. These actions include, but are not limited to, changes of transfer agent and registrar, change in general Listed Issuer information, change in the jurisdiction of organization of the Listed Issuer, change in the Listed Issuer's fiscal year end, change in the Listed Issuer's interlisted status and full or partial redemptions, retractions or cancellation of a Listed Security. The Exchange will set an "ex" trading date for the corporate action, if applicable.

7.05 Warrants and other Convertible, Exercisable and Exchangeable Securities

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

• a material extension of the term of the convertible security (for example: an extension of a term of a grant by 10% or less may be immaterial but becomes material if the amended term extends the grant past a date when an expected release of information is to occur, or the exercise price is lower than the prevailing market price); or

• a re-pricing of any grant (where "re-pricing" means any of the following or any other action that has the same effect: (i) lowering of ana conversion/exercise price of an option, warrant or convertible security after it is granted; (ii) any other action that is treated as a re-pricing under generally accepted accounting principles; or (iii) cancelling an option, warrant or convertible security at a time when its conversion/exercise price exceeds the fair market value of the underlying security, in exchange for a2nother security, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with an amalgamation, acquisition, spin-off or other similar corporate transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to the rights offering must comply with applicable securities laws.

(8) If the offering provides a rounding mechanism whereby rights holders holding less rights than are needed to buy one share can have their entitlement adjusted, arrangements must be made to ensure beneficial holders will be afforded the same treatment as if they were registered holders.

The Exchange will consider transactions that change the nature of an Investment Fund to be a security reclassification. Such transactions may include a conversion of

• A CEF into an ETF;

• An ETF into a CEF; or

• Any transaction where an Investment Fund is restructured as a non-Investment Fund.

The Listed Issuer should consider whether such reclassification will trigger a requirement under securities laws to seek security holder approval, including in the case of an Investment Fund, whether the reclassification will result in a fundamental change to the investment objective of the Investment Fund.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) To give effect to a security restructuring, the Listed Issuer must file the following documentation at least seven trading days prior to the Effective Date:

(b) to all purchases of Listed Securities by a trustee or other agent for a pension, stock purchase, stock option, dividend reinvestment or other plan in which employees or securities holders of a Listed Issuer may participate if:

(i) the trustee or agent is an employee, director, associate or affiliate of the Listed Issuer, or

(ii) the Listed Issuer directly or indirectly controls the time, price, amount or manner of purchases or directly or indirectly influences the choice of the broker through which purchases are made.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

These sections do not apply if the purchases are made on the specific instruction of the employee or security holder who will be the beneficial owner of the securities purchased.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) A Listed Issuer must not announce a Normal Course Issuer Bid or Post any documentation in connection with a Normal Course Issuer Bid, if it does not have a present intention to purchase securities.

(3) The maximum number of securities to be purchased under a Normal Course Issuer Bid cannot be a number that would make that class of securities ineligible for continued listing on the Exchange, assuming all the securities are purchased.

(4) A Listed Issuer intending to make a Normal Course Issuer Bid for a class of Listed Securities must file a draft Notice of Normal Course Issuer Bid (Form 20A), which states the maximum number of securities the issuer intends to purchase under the bid, seven trading days prior to issuing a news release announcing the details of the bid; the final Form 20A must be Posted when the news release is disseminated.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

An issuer may make a bid for less than the maximum number of securities permitted by the definition of Normal Course Issuer Bid. If so, the Form 20A must contain the number of securities the issuer intends to purchase rather than simply stating the maximum number. Subsection (7) allows a Listed Issuer to increase the maximum number of securities that are the subject of the bid.

The Exchange will review the Form 20A to determine if the NCIB is acceptable based on market integrity concerns.

The news release announcing the bid must contain a summary of the information in Form 20A, including the maximum number of shares to be purchased, the reason for the bid, any restrictions on purchase and the number of shares purchased in the preceding twelve months.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(5) A Normal Course Issuer Bid expires on the earlier of:

(a) one year from the date of Posting of the Form 20A commencing the NCIB (without reference to the date of filing of any amended Form 20A); and

(b) any earlier date specified in the Form 20A.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

An issuer wishing to continue a bid for more than one year must file a new Form 20A no later than the expiry date of the current form.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(6) The maximum number of securities that can be purchased under the bid must be adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and stock consolidations. The Listed Issuer must Post an amended Form 20A reflecting the adjustment at the same time as it Posts the documentation required for the subdivision or consolidation.

(7) If:

(a) the original Form 20A specified purchases of less than the maximum number permitted under the definition of Normal Course Issuer Bid, a Listed Issuer may Post a revised Form 20A permitting the purchase of up to the greater of 10% of the Public Float or 5% of the outstanding securities as of the date of the Posting of the original Form 20A; and

(b) the number of securities outstanding of the class that is the subject of the Normal Course Issuer Bid has increased by more than 25% from the date of Posting of the original Form 20A, a Listed Issuer may Post a revised Form 20A permitting the purchase of up to the greater of 10% of the Public Float or 5% of the outstanding securities as of the date of the Posting of the amended Form 20A.

(8) A Listed Issuer must Post a revised Form 20A in the event of any material change in the information in the current Form 20A, as soon as practicable, following the material change.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A change in the number of shares outstanding is not a material change re quiring filing of an amended form unless the issuer is increasing the number of shares it intends to purchase pursuant to subsection (7). A decrease in the number of shares the issuer intends to purchase is a material change.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(9) A Listed Issuer must issue a news release prior to or concurrently with the filing of any amended Form 20A containing full details of the amendment.

(10) Within 10 days of the end of each calendar month, the Listed Issuer, trustee or agent must Post a completed Form 20B indicating the number of securities purchased in the previous month (on the Exchange or otherwise), including the volume weighted average price paid.

7.20 Normal Course Issuer Bids -- Restrictions on Purchases

(1) A Listed Issuer, trustee or agent must appoint one (and only one) Member at any one time to make purchases under the bid. The Listed Issuer must notify the Market Regulator and the Exchange of the name of the Member and the registered representative responsible for the bid. To assist the Exchange in its surveillance function, the Listed Issuer is required to provide written notice to the Exchange before it intends to change its purchasing Member. The purchasing Member shall be provided with a copy of Form 20A and be instructed to make purchases in accordance with the provisions herein and the terms of such notice.

(2) Normal course issuer bid purchases may not be made by intentional crosses, prearranged trades or private agreements, except for purchases under the block purchase exemption in subsection 7.21(5).

(3) If a Normal Course Issuer Bid is outstanding at the time a sale from a Control Person under Part 2 of National Instrument 45-102 Resale of Securities is underway, the Member making purchases under the bid must ensure that it is not bidding for securities at the same time securities are offered under the sale from control.

(4) A Listed Issuer must not purchase securities under a Normal Course Issuer Bid, while a formal issuer bid for the same securities is outstanding. This restriction does not apply to a trustee or agent making purchases for a plan in which employees, or security holders, participate.

(5) If a Listed Issuer has a securities exchange take-over bid outstanding at the same time as a Normal Course Issuer Bid is outstanding for the offered securities, the Listed Issuer may only make purchases under the Normal Course Issuer Bid permitted by OSC Rule 48-501 Trading during Distributions, Formal Bids and Share Exchange Transactions.

(6) A Listed Issuer, trustee or agent may not make any purchases under a Normal Course Issuer Bid while in possession of any Material Information that has not been disseminated under Part V of this Listing Manual.

7.21 Normal Course Issuer Bids -- Limits on Price and Volume

(a) the Posting of a Form 20A or amended Form 20A in connection with the bid; and

(b) the issuance of a news release containing details of the Form 20A or amended Form 20A.

(2) It is inappropriate for a Listed Issuer making a Normal Course Issuer Bid to abnormally influence the market price of its securities. Normal Course Issuer Bid purchases must be made at or below the price of the last independent trade of the security (on any marketplace) at the time of purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a violation to the preceding rule will not occur where: (i) the independent trade occurred no more than one second before the Normal Course Issuer Bid purchase that created the uptick, (ii) the independent trade is a down tick to the previous trade and the Normal Course Issuer Bid purchase would not have created an uptick to the trade prior to the last independent trade, and (iii) the price difference between the independent trade and the Normal Course Issuer Bid purchase was not more than $0.02.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The following are not considered independent trades, whether made directly or indirectly:

• trades for the account or an Insider of the Listed Issuer or for an account under the direction of an Insider;

• trades for the account of the Member making purchases under the bid or under the direction of the Member;

• trades solicited by the Member making purchases under the bid; and

• trades made by the Member making purchases for the bid in order to facilitate a subsequent block purchase by the Listed Issuer.

The Exchange will not consider this section to be violated by an inadvertent uptick caused by a change in the last sale price that occurred immediately prior to the entry of the purchase order.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(3) Normal course issuer bid purchases may not be made at the opening of trading or during the 30 minutes prior to the scheduled closing of the continuous trading session. Orders may be entered in the closing call notwithstanding the price restriction in subsection (2).

(4) Except as provided in subsection (5), a Listed Issuer that is not an Investment Fund must not make a purchase that, when aggregated with all other purchases during the same trading day, exceeds the greater of:

(a) 25% of the Average Daily Trading Volume of the security; and

(b) 1,000 of such securities.

(5) Notwithstanding the restriction in subsection (4), a Listed Issuer may make a purchase of a block of securities that:

(a) has a purchase price of at least $200,000;

(b) is at least 5,000 securities with an aggregate purchase price of at least $50,000; or

(c) is at least 20 Board Lots and is greater than 150% of the Average Daily Trading Volume of the security, provided that:

(i) the block is naturally occurring, and does not consist of a combination of orders for the purpose of artificially creating a block to rely on this section;

(ii) the block is not beneficially owned by, or is not under the control or direction of, a Related Person of a Listed Issuer;

(iii) the Listed Issuer makes no more than one purchase under this subsection in a calendar week; and

(iv) after making a block purchase, the Listed Issuer makes no further purchases during that trading day.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The block purchase exemption is only an exemption from the daily purchase restrictions. Listed Issuers cannot make a block purchase that would result in more shares purchased than permitted under the Form 20A filed in connection with the bid.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(6) A Listed Issuer that is an Investment Fund must not make a purchase that, when aggregated with all other purchases during the preceding 30 days, exceeds 2% of the securities of that class outstanding as of the date of filing of the Form 20A in connection with the bid.

E. Shareholder Rights Plans

7.22 Shareholder Rights Plans -- Procedure

(1) This section applies to any shareholder rights plan, commonly known as a "poison pill," adopted by a Listed Issuer, whether or not the rights entitle a shareholder to purchase a Listed Security.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Exchange does not endorse or prohibit the adoption of poison pills, whether or not in connection with a potential take-over bid. Poison pills are subject to review by the applicable securities commissions under National Policy 62-202 Take-Over Bids -- Defensive Tactics.

(b) unless filed on SEDAR, a copy of the shareholder rights plan.

(4) A shareholder rights plan may not exempt any security holders from the operation of the plan, except that, where minority shareholder approval is obtained, a shareholder rights plan may provide exemptions to grandfather existing security holders.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

Minority shareholder approval means the approval of security holders who are not exempted from the plan.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(5) A shareholder rights plan may not have a triggering threshold of less than 20% unless shareholder approval is obtained.

(6) Security holders of the Listed Issuer must ratify the shareholder rights plan no later than six months following the adoption of or any material amendments to the plan. If security holder ratification is not obtained within this time period, the plan must be cancelled.

8.01 Notification

(1) A Listed Issuer must give notice to the Exchange of significant transactions that do not involve the issuance of securities. The Exchange considers the following to be significant transactions:

(a) any transaction or series of transactions with a Related Person of a Listed Issuer with an aggregate value greater than 10% of the Listed Issuer's market capitalization on a pre-transactional basis;

(b) any transaction or series of transactions by a Listed Issuer having an aggregate value greater than 25% of the Listed Issuer's market capitalization on a pre- transactional basis;

(d) any loan by a Listed Issuer unless such loan is in the ordinary course of business;

(e) any payment of a bonus, finder's fee, commission or other similar payment in connection with an issuance of securities; or

(f) where the Listed Issuer is the subject of a take-over bid.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Listed Issuer is required to provide notice of significant transactions that are outside of the ordinary course of business that may raise market integrity issues. Listed Issuers should interpret this obligation broadly and err on the side of disclosure if it is uncertain whether a transaction would trigger the notification requirement. The above list details what transactions the Exchange will consider to be outside of the ordinary course of business, however, the Exchange, in its discretion, may deem other transactions to be significant transactions requiring compliance with this Part.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) In addition, a Listed Issuer must provide additional details of any transaction or development it is obliged to disclose under the Exchange's Timely Disclosure Policy.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Exchange expects that a Listed Issuer will provide updates to the market when changes that are material occur in respect of a significant transaction. A Listed Issuer must provide sufficient details of any such developments to provide the market with a meaningful update. Examples of such changes include, but are not limited to: changes in the closing date of an acquisition or disposition; changes in consideration offered; creation of a new Insider of a Listed Issuer; and any risks involved in an acquisition or disposition.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(3) A transaction that results in a change of business may be subject to the reverse takeover rules contained in Part IX of this Listing Manual. Significant related party transactions may also be subject to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions.

(4) Listed Issuers intending to undertake a transaction for which notice is required must:

(a) for all transactions that have an aggregate value greater than 10% of the Listed Issuer's market capitalization on a pre-transactional basis, file a Notice of Significant Transaction (Form 22) seven trading days prior to the public announcement of the transaction, and Post the Form 22 not more than one trading day following the public announcement of the transaction; and

(b) for all other transactions, Post a Notice of Significant Transaction (Form 22) one trading day following the public announcement of the transaction.

(5) All notices filed with the Exchange will be held in confidence until the public announcement is made.

(6) The Listed Issuer must notify the Exchange when the transaction has closed.

PART IX. REVERSE TAKEOVER TRANSACTIONS

9.01 Definition

(1) A "reverse takeover" transaction means a "reverse takeover" within the meaning of National Instrument 51-102. The Exchange also considers a significant acquisition by a Listed Issuer accompanied or preceded by a change of control to be a "reverse takeover". The Exchange has discretion to deem any transaction or series of transactions to be a reverse takeover transaction.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A significant acquisition is any transaction, whether by asset purchase, take-over bid, amalgamation, arrangement, merger or otherwise that substantially change s the Listed Issuer's business. A business is considered to be substantially changed if more than 50% of the issuer's assets or 50% of its revenues following the change are from the assets, business or other interest that is the subject of the significant acquisition.

A change of control results when a Listed Issuer issues securities (calculated on a fully diluted basis) equal to more than 100% of the number of outstanding equity securities (calculated on a non-diluted basis) in connection with the significant acquisition (including an offering to raise money to be able to make a cash acquisition) or where there is a substantial change in management or the board of directors of the Listed Issuer.

As an example, if the number of securities issued or issuable by an Investment Fund in payment of the purchase price for an acquisition of another fund exceeds 100% of the number of securities outstanding of the Investment Fund, which is a Listed Issuer, on a non-diluted basis, it will be considered a reverse takeover transaction.

A "reverse takeover " will also be deemed to have occurred where a Listed Issuer becomes an Investment Issuer.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) A Listed Issuer completing a reverse takeover transaction must comply with all of the original listing requirements detailed in Part II. Listed Issuers are urged to consult with the Exchange at an early stage when contemplating any transaction that might be considered a reverse takeover transaction.

9.02 Exception

(1) Reverse takeover transactions are subject to additional regulation because the business of the Listed Issuer has fundamentally changed such that the Listed Issuer's past disclosure is not as relevant to the entity resulting from the significant acquisition. A transaction involving two or more Listed Issuers does not give rise to these concerns and will not be considered a reverse takeover transaction, except in exceptional cases; however, such Listed Issuers should consult with the Exchange prior to undertaking a reverse takeover transaction.

(2) Notwithstanding anything else in this Listing Manual, the exemption in Section 9.02(1) does not apply to a reverse takeover of an Investment Fund.

9.3 Procedure

(1) A Listed Issuer undergoing a reverse takeover transaction must meet the standards and follow the procedures outlined for an original listing. In addition, it must obtain security holder approval for the significant acquisition. For this purpose, holders of Restricted Securities must be entitled to vote with the holders of any class of securities of the Listed Issuer, which otherwise carry greater voting rights, on a basis proportionate to their respective residual equity interests in the Listed Issuer.

(2) The information circular must contain prospectus level disclosure in accordance with National Instrument 51-102F5, Section 14.2, and for the purposes thereof, the reverse takeover transaction is deemed to be a "restructuring transaction" within the meaning of National Instrument 51-102F5. The information circular may be used as the listing statement for the listing of the resulting company. The Exchange will require the Listed Issuer to file a draft of the information circular with the Exchange, for review, at least 20 trading days before it intends to send the circular to security holders.

(3) The Listed Issuer must submit the application filing fee plus applicable taxes at the time that the draft information circular is delivered.

(4) Principals of the resulting company must enter into an escrow agreement with the Exchange that complies with the requirements of NP 46-201. The Exchange will require the Listed Issuer to provide a draft of such escrow agreement(s) to the Exchange for review at least 10 trading days prior to its execution. The terms of the escrow agreement must be drafted as if the Listed Issuer were an "established issuer" pursuant to the terms of NP 46- 201.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Exchange may grant an exemption to the escrow agreement required if the resulting issuer will be an "exempt issuer" pursuant to section 3.2(b) ofNP 46- 201.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(5) Securities issued pursuant to a reverse takeover transaction will be subject to the Maximum Discount to ~~market price~~Market Price, minimum pricing and other requirements detailed in sections 7.04 and 7.05 of this Listing Manual.

(6) Following the security holder approval, the Listed Issuer must, in addition to any documents that must be filed or Posted in accordance with Part II of this Listing Manual, file the following documents with the Exchange:

(a) a certified copy of the scrutineer's report which details the results of the vote on the resolution to approve the reverse takeover transaction (if applicable, the report must confirm that security holder approval was obtained on any other matters in respect of which it was required);

(b) an original or notarial certified copy of any escrow agreement(s) required to be entered into pursuant to section 9.03(4); and

(c) a legal opinion or officer's certificate confirming that all closing conditions have been satisfied.

(7) Following the security holder approval, the Listed Issuer must submit the balance of the filing fee plus applicable taxes.

PART X. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND SECURITY HOLDER APPROVAL

A. Corporate Governance

10.01 Application

(1) Sections 10.02, 10.03, 10.04 and 10.05 do not apply to Listed Issuers that are ETP Issuers or issuers of CEFs and ETFs.

(2) Section 10.06 applies to Listed Issuers that are Investment Funds.

10.02 Governance of Listed Issuers

(1) A Listed Issuer must have a board of directors that includes at least two Unrelated Directors or, when the board of directors consists of six or more members, must be composed of at least one-third Unrelated Directors.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A Listed Issuer with sufficient financial resources is expected to have a board of directors composed of at least a majority of Unrelated Directors.

The Unrelated Directors should hold regularly scheduled meetings (or in camera sessions) at which non-Unrelated Directors and members of management are not in attendance. In camera sessions should be held by the Unrelated Directors at every scheduled board meeting, at a minimum.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) A Listed Issuer must have a Chief Executive Officer, a Chief Financial Officer who cannot be the Chief Executive Officer, and a secretary.

(3) At each annual meeting of holders of listed securities, the board of directors must permit security holders of each class or series to vote on the election of all directors to be elected by such class or series.

(4) Materials sent to security holders in connection with a meeting of security holders, at which directors are being elected, must provide for voting on each individual director.

(5) Each director of a listed issuer must be elected by a majority (50% +1 vote) of the votes cast with respect to his or her election other than at contested meetings ("Majority Voting Requirement").

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A "contested meeting" is defined as a meeting at which the number of directors nominated for election is greater than the number of seats available on the board.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(6) A Listed Issuer must implement the Majority Voting Requirement by adopting a written policy, or by otherwise including it in its articles, by-laws or other similar instruments. The Majority Voting Requirement must substantially provide for the following:

(a) any director must immediately tender his or her resignation to the board of directors if he or she is not elected by at least a majority (50% +1 vote) of the votes cast with respect to his or her election;

(b) the board shall determine whether or not to accept the resignation within 90 days after the date of the relevant security holders' meeting and the board shall accept the resignation absent exceptional circumstances;

(c) the resignation will be effective when accepted by the board;

(d) a director who tenders a resignation pursuant to the Majority Voting Requirement will not participate in any portion of the meeting of the board or any sub-committee of the board at which the resignation is considered; and

(e) the issuer shall promptly issue a news release with the board's decision, a copy of which must be filed with the Exchange (if the board determines not to accept a resignation, the news release must fully state the reasons for that decision).

(7) The Listed Issuer must fully describe the Majority Voting Requirement on an annual basis, in its materials sent to holders of listed securities in connection with a meeting at which directors are being elected.

(8) Listed Issuers that are majority controlled are exempted from the Majority Voting Requirement. Listed Issuers with more than one class of listed voting securities may only rely on this exemption with respect to the majority controlled class or classes of securities that vote together for the election of directors. A Listed Issuer relying on this exemption must disclose, on an annual basis in its materials sent to holders of listed securities in connection with a meeting at which directors are being elected, its reliance on this exemption and its reasons for not adopting majority voting.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

"Majority controlled" is defined as a security holder or company that beneficially owns, or controls or directs, directly or indirectly, voting securities carrying 50 percent or more of the voting rights for the election of directors, as of the record date for the meeting.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(9) Following each meeting of security holders at which there is a vote on the election of directors at an uncontested meeting, each Listed Issuer must promptly disclose by press release the detailed voting results for the election of each director.

Commentary:

The disclosure is intended to provide the reader with insight into the level of support received for each director. Accordingly, the disclosure should disclose the percentage and/or number of votes received 'for' and 'withheld' for each director.

If no formal count has occurred that would meaningfully represent the level of support received by each director, for example when a vote is conducted by a show of hands, the Listed Issuer should disclose the percentage and/or number of votes represented by proxy that were voted 'for' and 'withheld' for each director.

(10) In respect of the solicitation of proxies or votes, a Listed Issuer is prohibited from paying intermediaries unless payment is made for all votes obtained during a contested director election, whether such votes are in favour of or against management's recommended director nominees.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A Listed Issuer with sufficient financial resources would also be expected to monitor and consider adopting additional corporate governance best practices.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

10.03 Audit Committee

A Listed Issuer must have an audit committee that complies with the requirements of National Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees.

(1) A Listed Issuer must have a compensation committee composed of a majority of Unrelated Directors that:

(a) reviews and approves goals and objectives relevant to the Chief Executive Officer's compensation;

(b) evaluates the Chief Executive Officer's performance with respect to those goals and objectives;

(c) determines the Chief Executive Officer's compensation (both cash-based and equity-based);

(d) reviews and approves incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans and determines whether security holder approval should be obtained; and

(e) makes recommendations to the board with respect to compensation of other senior officers and directors.

(2) A Listed Issuer does not have to establish a compensation committee if the matters discussed in section 10.04, other than section 10.04(1)(e), are approved by Unrelated Directors constituting a majority of the Bboard's Unrelated Directors in a vote in which only Unrelated Directors participate.

10.05 Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

(3) A Listed Issuer must have a nominating and corporate governance committee composed of a majority of Unrelated Directors that is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become new board members and recommending to the board the new director nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders. In making its recommendations, the nominating and corporate governance committee should consider:

(a) the competencies and skills that the board considers to be necessary for the board, as a whole, to possess;

(b) the diversity of the board composition (including gender considerations);

(c) the competencies and skills that the board considers each existing director to possess; and

(d) the competencies and skills each new nominee will bring to the boardroom.

(4) The nominating and corporate governance committee should also consider whether or not each new nominee can devote sufficient time and resources to his or her duties as a board member.

(5) A Listed Issuer does not have to establish a nominating and corporate governance committee if the matters discussed in section 10.05 are approved by Unrelated Directors constituting a majority of the Bboard's Unrelated Directors in a vote in which only Unrelated Directors participate.

10.06 Independent Review Committee

A Listed Issuer that is an Investment Fund must have an independent review committee that complies with the requirements of National Instrument 81-107 Independent Review Committee Ffor Investment Funds.

B. Security Holder Approval

10.08 No Derogation from Corporate or Securities Law or Constating Documents

The provisions of this Part are in addition to any requirement for security holder approval or minority security holder approval in corporate or securities law of the constating documents of a Listed Issuer.

10.09 General Requirements

(1) Any Related Party of a Listed Issuer that has a material interest in a transaction that: (a) differs from the interests of shareholders generally and, (b) would materially affect the Listed Issuer, may not vote on any resolution to approve that transaction.

(2) An Exchange Requirement for security holder approval may be satisfied by obtaining a written resolution signed by holders of at least 50% of the holders entitled to vote thereon, and specifically excluding holders who are excluded from voting by Exchange Requirements, corporate or securities law or the constating documents of the Listed Issuer.

~~(2)~~(3) Listed Issuers using this exemption will be required to issue a press release at least seven trading days in advance of the closing of the transaction, which shall disclose the material terms of the transaction and that the Listed Issuer has relied upon this exemption.

~~(3)~~(4) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any security holder approval requirement contained in corporate or securities laws or the constating documents of the Listed Issuer must be obtained in accordance with those sources of law.

~~(4)~~(5) The security holder approval requirements apply to transactions involving the issuance or potential issuance of listed Non-Voting Securities.

~~(5)~~(6) Where a transaction will affect the rights of holders of different classes of securities, the security holder approval requirements will apply on a class-by-class basis.

~~(6)~~(7) Where a transaction involves the issuance of Restricted Securities or Super-Voting Securities, the provisions of Part X.C shall apply.

~~(7)~~(8) Materials sent to security holders in connection with the vote for approval must contain information in sufficient detail to allow a security holder to make a fully-informed decision. The Exchange will require the Listed Issuer to file a draft of the information circular with the Exchange for review of market integrity issues before it sends the circular to security holders in respect of a transaction that requires the Listed Issuer to Post any Form or otherwise provide notice to the Exchange.

~~(8)~~(9) In addition to any specific requirement for security holder approval, the Exchange will generally require security holder approval if in the opinion of the Exchange the transaction materially affects control of the Listed Issuer.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Exchange takes the view that "materially affects control" means the ability of any security holder or combination of security holders acting together to influence the outcome of a vote of security holders, including the ability to block significant transactions. This ability will be affected by the circumstances of a particular case, including the presence or absence of other large security holdings, the pattern of voting behaviour by other holders at previous security holder meetings and the distribution of the voting securities. A transaction that results, or could result, in a new Control Person will be considered to materially affect control, unless the circumstances indicate otherwise.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

10.10 Securities Offering

(1) Subject to section 10.10(2), security holders must approve a proposed securities offering (by way of prospectus or by private placement) if:

(a) the number of securities issuable in the offering (calculated on a fully diluted basis) is more than 25% of the total number of securities or votes outstanding (calculated on a non-diluted basis) and the price of the offering is less than the closing price of the security on the day preceding the date on which the Listed Issuer announced the offering, but not less than the Maximum Discount to ~~market price~~Market Price;

(b) the price is less than the Maximum Discount to ~~market pric~~eMarket Price, regardless of the number of shares to be issued; or

(c) the number of securities issuable to Related Persons of a Listed Issuer in the offering, when added to the number of securities issued to such Related Persons of a Listed Issuer in private placements or acquisitions in the preceding twelve months (in each case, calculated on a fully-diluted basis), is more than 10% of the total number of securities or votes outstanding (calculated on a non-diluted basis), regardless of the price of the offering.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

In determining whether the 25% threshold has been crossed, all securities issuable in the offering are counted, whether or not convertible securities are out of the money, and no other issued convertible securities are counted, whether or not they are in the money.

For example, ABC has 10,000,000 common shares outstanding and has outstanding securities convertible into 5,000,000 common shares at $10.00. The market price of ABC's common shares is $15.00. If ABC were to complete a private placement of 1,500,000 common shares at $14.75 with a sweetener of warrants convertible into a further 1,500,000 common shares at $20.00, shareholder approval would be required as the maximum number of shares issuable (3,000,000) is more than 25% of the 10,000,000 shares outstanding. The securities convertible into common shares at $10.00 are not counted.

If the offering was completed at $15.00 or higher, there would be no requirement for shareholder approval unless the provisions for approval of transactions with Related Persons apply.

In calculating the number of shares issued to Related Persons to the Listed Issuer in the previous twelve months, do not include shares that were issued in a transaction approved by shareholders.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) Security holder approval of an offering is not required if:

(a) the Listed Issuer is in serious financial difficulty;

(b) the Listed Issuer has reached an agreement to complete the offering;

(c) no Related Person of a Listed Issuer is participating in the offering; and

(d) the

(i) audit committee, if comprised solely of Unrelated Directors, or

(ii) Unrelated Directors constituting a majority of the Bboard's Unrelated Directors in a vote in which only Unrelated Directors participate,

have determined that the offering is in the best interests of the Listed Issuer, is reasonable in the circumstances and that it is not feasible to obtain security holder approval or complete a rights offering to existing security holders on the same terms.

(3) A Listed Issuer taking advantage of the exemption in section 10.10(2) must issue a news release five days in advance of the security offering stating it will not hold a security holder vote and fully explaining how it qualifies for the exemption.

10.11 Acquisitions

(1) Security holders must approve an acquisition if:

(a) a Related Person of a Listed Issuer or a group of Related Persons of a Listed Issuer has a 10% or greater interest in the assets to be acquired and the total number of securities issuable (calculated on a fully diluted basis) are more than 5% of the total number of securities or votes of the Listed Issuer outstanding (calculated on a non-diluted basis); or

(b) for Listed Issuers that are not Investment Funds, the total number of securities issuable (calculated on a fully diluted basis) is more than 25% of the total number of securities or votes of the Listed Issuer outstanding (calculated on a non-diluted basis);

(iii) any concurrent private placement upon which the acquisition is contingent or otherwise linked.

(2) For a Listed Issuer that is an Investment Fund, security holder approval is required for the acquisition of another Investment Fund (the "target fund"), unless all of the following conditions are met:

(a) the target fund calculates and publishes its net asset value at least once a month;

(b) the consideration offered does not exceed the net asset value of the target fund;

(c) the Listed Issuer and the target fund are managed by the same investment fund manager or investment fund managers that are affiliates;

(d) the investment fund manager of the Listed Issuer has determined that assets acquired are consistent with the Listed Issuer's investment objectives, and has referred the transaction to the Listed Issuer's independent review committee;

(e) the independent review committee of the Listed Issuer has approved the acquisition;

(f) the Listed Issuer and the target fund bear none of the costs and expenses associated with the transaction; and

(g) the transaction is not a reverse takeover transaction.

10.12 Acquisitions and Reorganizations of Listed Investment Funds

(1) For a Listed Issuer that is an Investment Fund, security holder approval is required for:

(a) an acquisition of the Listed Issuer by an Investment Fund (the "acquiring fund"); or

(b) any reorganization or transfer of the Listed Issuer's assets to an acquiring fund that results in the Listed Issuer ceasing to exist after the reorganization or transfer of assets and the Listed Issuer's security holders becoming security holders of the acquiring fund,

unless all of the following conditions are met:

(c) the Listed Issuer has a permitted merger clause in its constating documents that permits the acquisition of the Listed Issuer without security holder approval;

(h) the Listed Issuer and the acquiring fund bear none of the costs and expenses associated with the transaction; and

(i) the Listed Issuer provides its security holders with a redemption right for cash proceeds, which are not less than its net asset value, together with a minimum of 20 business days' prior notice and description of such redemption right and the acquisition.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

Notice may be made by means of a news release describing the transaction and the redemption right.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

10.13 Security Based Compensation

(1) This section governs the adoption of, and issuance of Awards under, Security Based Compensation Arrangements.

(2) The adoption of a Security Based Compensation Arrangement and the issuance of Awards thereunder must be made in compliance with applicable securities laws and/or exemptions from prospectus requirements, including (if required) compliance with section 2.24 of National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus and Registration Exemptions.

(3) When instituted all Security Based Compensation Arrangements must be approved by:

(a) a majority of the Listed Issuer's directors; and

(b) the Listed Issuer's security holders.

(4) Within three years after institution and within every three years thereafter, a Listed Issuer must obtain security holder approval for an evergreen plan (also known as a rolling plan) in order to continue to grant Awards. Evergreen plans contain provisions so that the Awards replenish upon the exercise of options or other entitlements, and such provisions must be properly disclosed and approved by security holders. Security holders must pass a resolution specifically approving unallocated entitlements under the evergreen plan. Security holder approval relating to other types of amendments to an evergreen plan must not be accepted as implicit approval to continue granting Awards under an evergreen plan. In addition, the resolution should include the next date by which the Listed Issuer must seek security holder approval, such date being no later than three years from the date such resolution was approved. If security holder approval is not obtained within three years of either the institution of an evergreen plan or subsequent approval, as the case may be, all unallocated entitlements must be cancelled and the Listed Issuer must not be permitted to grant further entitlements under the evergreen plan, until such time as security holder approval is obtained. However, all allocated Awards under an evergreen plan, such as options that have been granted but not yet exercised, can continue unaffected. If security holders fail to approve the resolution for the renewal of a plan, the Listed Issuer must forthwith stop granting Awards under such plan, even if such renewal approval was sought prior to the end of the three-year period.

(5) Subject to subsections 10.13(6) and 10.13(7), an amendment to a material term of a Security Based Compensation Arrangement or Award must be approved by:

(a) a majority of the Listed Issuer's directors; and

(b) the Listed Issuer's security holders.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

The Exchange considers material terms of an Award or Security Based Compensation Arrangement to include provisions such as: an increase to the maximum number of securities issuable,; who is an eligible optionee pursuant to a plan; the duration in which a grant expires after the grantee leaves the issuer or dies; or changes to fixed vesting schedules.

Amendments of a housekeeping nature do not require any particular director or shareholder approvals.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(6) A Security Based Compensation Arrangement may provide discretion to the Listed Issuer's board of directors to make amendments to specified material terms of the Security Based Compensation Arrangement or an Award without obtaining approval of the Listed Issuer's security holders. Where a the Security Based Compensation Arrangement provides such discretion, such amendments may be made with the approval of the Listed Issuer's board of directors, other than directors that would receive, or would be eligible to receive, a material benefit resulting from the amendment. If the board of directors is unable to approve an amendment because of the restrictions on eligibility to vote, the amendment to the material terms of a Security Based Compensation Arrangement or an Award must be approved by security holders, other than security holders that would receive, or would be eligible to receive, a material benefit resulting from such amendment.

(7) Notwithstanding subsection 10.13(6), security holder approval, excluding security holders that would receive, or would be eligible to receive, a material benefit resulting from the following actions, is required for any of the following:

(a) an increase to the maximum number of securities issuable where, following the increase, the total number of securities issuable under all Security Based Compensation Plans of the Listed Issuer is equal to or greater than 10% of the securities of the Listed Issuer (calculated on a non-diluted basis) outstanding as of the date the Security Based Compensation Arrangement was last approved by security holders;

(b) a re-pricing of an Award benefiting a Related Person of a Listed Issuer;

(c) an extension of the term of an Award benefiting a Related Person of a Listed Issuer;

(d) an extension of the term of an Award, where the exercise price is lower than the prevailing market price;

(e) any amendment to remove or to exceed the limits set out in a Security Based Compensation Arrangement on Awards available to Related Persons of the Listed Issuer; or

(f) amendments to an amending provision within a Security Based Compensation Arrangement.

(8) Subsection 10.13(3) is not applicable in respect of a grant of securities to any Person not previously employed by and not previously a Related Party of the Listed Issuer, provided that:

(a) such grant is intended as an inducement to enter into, and the Person enters into, a full-time contract of employment as an officer of the Listed Issuer; and

(b) the securities issued or issuable pursuant to this subsection 10.13(7) during any twelve-month period do not exceed 2% of the total number of securities or votes of the Listed Issuer (calculated on a non-diluted basis) outstanding as of the date that this exemption is first used during such twelve-month period.

(9) Subsection 10.13(3) is not applicable to a Security Based Compensation Arrangement where an acquisition of a target entity by a Listed Issuer includes:

(a) the assumption of the Security Based Compensation Arrangement from the target entity, if the number of assumed Awards (and their exercise or subscription price, if applicable) is adjusted in accordance with the price per acquired security payable by the Listed Issuer; and

(b) the creation of a Security Based Compensation Arrangement for employees of the target entity, if the aggregate number of Awards issuable does not exceed 2% of the total number of securities or votes of the Listed Issuer (calculated on a non- diluted basis) outstanding prior to the date of closing of the transaction, and such employees are not Related Persons or employees of the Listed Issuer prior to the acquisition.

(10) Where a Security Based Compensation Arrangement requires security holder approval, a Listed Issuer may grant Awards (which are exercisable into Listed Securities) under the Security Based Compensation Arrangement prior to obtaining security holder approval, provided that no exercise of such Awards may occur until security holder approval is obtained. Security holder approval must be sought and obtained at the next meeting of security holders, otherwise the Awards must be cancelled.

(11) Security holder approval required for a Security Based Compensation Arrangement must be by way of a duly called meeting.

(12) Where security holder approval is required, a Listed Issuer should submit the circular for the meeting of security holders to the Exchange at least 10 trading days prior to its distribution to security holders so that the Exchange may review it for market integrity issues and to ensure it complies with Exchange Requirements. The circular for the meeting must contain sufficient detail to permit security holders to form a reasoned judgment concerning the Security Based Compensation Arrangement.

(b) the procedure for amending each Security Based Compensation Arrangement and Awards granted thereunder, including whether discretion is granted to the Listed Issuer's Board of Directors to make amendments to specified material terms without obtaining security holder approval; and

(c) whether or not security holder approval was obtained (and if not, the reasons why shareholder approval was not obtained) for: (i) the adoption of, or amendment to, any Security Based Compensation Arrangement adopted or amended since the beginning of the Listed Issuer's last fiscal year, and (ii) for the amendment of any Award since the beginning of the Listed Issuer's last fiscal year.

have determined that the rights offering, including the pricing thereof, is in the best interests of the Listed Issuer, and is reasonable in the circumstances.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

Where a stand-by commitment may result in the acquisition of shares in the rights offering that "materially affects control" ifof the Listed Issuer, security holder approval may be required. See section 10.09(8) of the Listing Manual.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(3) A Listed Issuer taking advantage of the exemption in section 10.14(2) must forthwith issue a news release stating it will not hold a security holder vote and fully explaining how it qualifies for the exemption.

10.15 Shareholder Rights Plans

Security holders must ratify the adoption of, or amendments to, a shareholder rights plan as provided in subsection 7.22(6).

C. Restricted Securities

10.18 Restricted Securities

(1) Part X.C of this Listing Manual is applicable to Listed Issuers with outstanding listed Restricted Securities or intending to list Restricted Securities. This section is to be read in conjunction with OSC Rule 56-501 Restricted Shares.

(2) Restricted Securities must be identified as such in the Listed Issuer's constating documents and will be identified by the Exchange as such in market data displays prepared for the financial press.

(3) A class of shares may not be designated as 'common' unless the shares are Common Shares.

(4) A class of shares may not be designated as 'preference' or 'preferred' securities unless the shares are Preference Shares.

(5) An issuer's constating documents must give Restricted Security holders the same right to receive notice of, attend and speak at all shareholder meetings as holders of Super-Voting Securities and to receive all disclosure documents and other information sent to holders of Super-Voting Securities.

(6) A Listed Issuer with outstanding listed Restricted Securities or intending to list Restricted Securities must include in its Listing Statement the disclosure required by Part 2 of OSC Rule 56-501 Restricted Shares.

10.19 Coattail Provisions

(1) The Exchange will not list Restricted Securities unless the issuer's constating documents provide that if a take-over bid is made to Super-Voting Securities, whether or not the Super-Voting Securities are listed, the Restricted Securities will automatically convert to Super-Voting Securities unless an identical offer (in terms of price per share, percentage of shares to be taken up exclusive of shares already owned by the offeror and its associates and all other material conditions) is concurrently made to Restricted Shareholders.

(2) The conversion right or identical offer described in subsection (1) may contain appropriate modifications to account for any material difference between the equity interests of the Restricted Securities and Super-Voting Securities.

(3) The foregoing coattail provisions are designed to ensure that holders of Restricted Securities are able to participate in a take-over bid together with holders of Super-Voting Securities, proportionate to their equity interests in the Listed Issuer. The Exchange may intervene in a take-over bid that has been structured to circumvent the coattail provisions.

10.20 Issuance of Restricted Securities and Super-Voting Securities

(3) The Exchange will consider exemptions from the security holder approval requirement on a case-by-case basis where the Listed Issuer can demonstrate that the distribution does not reduce the voting power of holders of Restricted Securities.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

For example, a distribution of Super-Voting Securities by way of stock dividend payable on all classes of Equity Securities may be exempted where the Listed Issuer can demonstrate that the distribution does not reduce the voting power of holders of Restricted Securities.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

PART XI. SUSPENSIONS, DELISTING AND OTHER REMEDIAL ACTIONS

11.01 General

The Exchange or the Market Regulator may halt or suspend trading in a Listed Security at any time without notice if such halt or suspension is in the public interest.

11.02 Halts

The Exchange or the Market Regulator may order a halt to trading and order entry in a Listed Security to permit the dissemination of material news concerning the Listed Issuer. The Exchange may also halt trading and order entry in a Listed Security if a Listed Issuer violates Exchange Requirements or is conducting a reverse takeover transaction.

11.03 Suspensions and Continuous Listing Criteria

(1) Without limiting the general power to suspend trading, the Head of Listings or his or her delegate may suspend trading of a Listed Security where:

(a) the Listed Issuer has become insolvent or bankrupt or has made an assignment to creditors;

(b) the Listed Issuer has ceased to carry on business or a significant portion of its business or has announced its intention to cease to carry on business or a significant portion of its business;

(c) in the case of an Investment Issuer, the Listed Issuer has not complied with section 10.17;

(d) the Listed Issuer's financial statements or the auditor's report thereon state that the Listed Issuer may not be able to continue as a going concern;

(e) the Listed Issuer is in violation of its ~~listing agreement~~Listing Agreement or Exchange Requirements;

(f) the continuous listing criteria set out in Part III are not met for Listed Security or the Listed Issuer;

(g) the Listed Issuer is not in compliance with applicable securities or corporate law or its constating documents;

(h) the Listed Issuer has not paid applicable fees to the Exchange when due;

(i) The Listed Issuer or any of its securities have been suspended or delisted from an Accepted Foreign Exchange or other Canadian exchange on which they are listed;

(j) The Exchange considers a suspension to be in the public interest or in the interest of a fair and orderly market.

(2) Unless the public interest or the interest of a fair and orderly market warrants otherwise, the Exchange will give the Listed Issuer prior notice of its intention to suspend the trading of its securities and allow the issuer an opportunity to be heard. At the same time the Listed Issuer is notified, the Exchange may issue a public notice, which may include a press release, indicating it is considering a suspension.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A Decision to suspend trading of Listed Securities may be appealed as provided in Part XII of this Listing Manual.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(3) During a suspension, the Listed Issuer remains a Listed Issuer and must comply with all applicable Exchange Requirements.

(4) In order to have a suspension lifted, the Listed Issuer must meet the requirements for continued listing and meet such other conditions as the Exchange may establish.

11.04 Declaration of Non-Compliance

If a Listed Issuer has failed to comply with Exchange Requirements or applicable securities or corporate law, or its constating documents, or has failed to pay applicable fees, the Head of Listings may publicly identify the Listed Issuer as non-compliant if, in his or her opinion, suspension of trading of the Listed Issuer's securities would not be an appropriate remedy for the failure to comply.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A declaration of non-compliance is a discretionary mechanism used by the Exchange indicating that a Listed Issuer is not in compliance with Exchange Requirements. The declaration will be made public. The reason for the breach (including whether the breach was intentional or not) is not taken into account by the Exchange when considering whether to issue a declaration of non-compliance.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

11.05 Public Reprimand

(1) If a Listed Issuer has failed to comply with Part V, Part VI, or Part X of this Listing Manual, the Head of Listings may publicly reprimand the Listed Issuer if suspension of trading of the Listed Issuer's securities would not be an appropriate remedy for the failure to comply.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

In making a determination to issue a public reprimand, the Head of Listings will consider whether the failure to comply:

a. was advertent;

b. materially affected shareholders' interests;

c. was rectified by the Listed Issuer;

d. resulted from reliance on the advice of an independent advisor; and

e. was one of a series of similar failures.

A public reprimand is a censure of conduct that the Exchange considers inappropriate for a Listed Issuer. It does not necessarily involve a breach of Exchange Requirements. The Exchange will not issue a reprimand for an innocent breach, but would for negligence or incompetence. The reprimand would be issued where the conduct is serious enough to warrant a regulatory response, but not so serious as to justify a suspension or a finding that a Person is unfit to be an Insider of the Listed Issuer. For example, where financial statements are filed late by one day, it may not be an appropriate regulatory response for the Exchange to suspend trading for the inadvertent late filing, but a public reprimand may be appropriate.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) The Exchange will give the Listed Issuer prior notice of its intention to issue a reprimand.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

A Decision to issue a reprimand may be appealed as provided in Part XII of this Listing Manual. Issuance of the reprimand will be stayed pending the outcome of the appeal.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

11.06 Delisting

(1) If within 150 days of the date of suspension, or earlier, if a date has been specified in the notice of suspension: (a) a Listed Issuer whose securities are suspended fails to meet the continuous listing requirements; or (b) the suspension has not been lifted, the securities of the Listed Issuer shall be automatically Delisted without further notice. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the securities of a Listed Issuer may be Delisted at such earlier time upon notice of Delisting from the Exchange.

(2) A Listed Issuer may voluntarily request that all or a class of its Listed Securities be Delisted. Such request must by Posting a Notice of ~~Intention to Delist~~Delisting (Form 24), which set out the reasons for the request and be accompanied by a certified copy of a resolution of the Listed Issuer's board of directors (or equivalent) authorizing the request. The Exchange may not Delist the Listed Securities of an issuer unless a satisfactory alternative market exists.

(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if two-thirds of disinterested shareholders approve the Delisting without an alternative market then the Exchange will comply with the request to Delist.

11.07 Display

A Listed Issuer must display forthwith on its own website any notices from the Exchange in respect of a public reprimand, suspension or Delisting.

PART XII. APPEALS

12.01 Appeals of Decision

(1) A Listed Issuer or any other Person adversely affected by a Decision may appeal a Decision of the Exchange to the Board of Directors of the Exchange (or a committee of the Board of Directors designated by the Exchange), other than:

(a) a Decision of the Market Regulator, including a Decision to temporarily halt or suspend trading pursuant to sections 11.01 or 11.02 made by a Market Regulator; or

(b) a Decision of the board of directors of the Exchange.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Commentary:

Decisions of the Market Regulator are subject to the Market Regulator's appeal procedures.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(2) Appeals will be conducted according to the procedures established by the board of directors of the Exchange (or the committee of the board of directors designated by the Exchange).

(3) A Listed Issuer or any other Person adversely affected by an appeal Decision may seek a review of such Decision with the applicable securities regulatory authority.

(b) IPP after the first year of listing. At the end of the first year of listing the Designated Market Maker Obligations will be based on the median daily value for the quarter. It has been determined that Tier _________ obligations will apply to your Listed Security. You agree to contribute $_________ per ~~month~~day to the Designated Market Maker if it achieves Tier _________ obligations during the month and ~~an additional $________~~$_________ per ~~month~~day to the Designated Market Maker if it achieves Tier _________ obligations during the month.

3. Distribution and Collection of Funds for the IPP

(a) At least 10 days prior to the first day of trading after listing, you will make a payment to the Exchange for the full months until the next quarter and for each of the months of the first full quarter after listing.

(b) An invoice will be sent to you within 45 days after the end of each quarter that you participate in the IPP indicating the amount of money you must pay for the following quarter. At the same time you will receive a report regarding whether the Designated Market Maker has met the increased obligations for each of the months in the previous quarter; and as a result, how much money has been paid to the Designated Market Maker. Any amounts that have not been paid to the Designated Market Maker because it has not achieved its obligations will be credited to future months; no cash refunds will be paid.

(c) Any amounts owed must be paid within 30 days of the date of the invoice.

An invoice will be sent by May 15th with a report regarding whether the Designated Market Maker made its objectives in March. The invoice will set out the amounts due for July, August and September and any credit for the month of March. The payment will be due by June 15 at the latest.
