 tax year or in subsequent tax years. Whether we are a PFIC is determined on a year-by-year basis, and we cannot assure you that we are not and we will not be a PFIC for our future tax years. A non-U.S. corporation is generally a PFIC if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income is passive income for a tax year or (ii) at least 50% of the value of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets during a tax year) are attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. The market value of our assets may be determined to a large extent by the market price of our common shares. If we are treated as a PFIC for any tax year in which U.S. shareholders hold common shares, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to such U.S. shareholders. For further discussion of the implications of PFIC status, please refer to “Item 10.E. Additional Information – Taxation – United States Federal Income Taxation.”
 
It is not possible to foresee all risks that may affect us. Moreover, we cannot predict whether we will successfully effectuate our current business plans. Each prospective purchaser of our common shares is encouraged to carefully analyze the risks and merits of an investment in the common shares and should take into consideration when making such analysis the Risk Factors discussed above, among others.
