We are considered a “foreign private issuer” as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, and therefore, not required to comply with all the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and related rules and regulations. The rules governing the information that foreign private issuers are required to disclose differ from those governing U.S. corporations pursuant to the Exchange Act.
