These footnotes are solely for the purposes of identifying the changes and should not be interpreted as being part of the final Rule.

The Minister of Finance has also approved a regulation to amend Regulation 1015 of the Revised Regulations of Ontario, 1990 made under the Securities Act (the "Regulation") in connection with the Rule, which was filed as O. Reg. 601/00 on November 16, 2000, and will be published in the Ontario Gazette on December 2, 2000. The amendment to the Regulation came into force at the time that the Rule came into force on November 18, 2000.
