Item   Corporate 
16G.   Governance
-----------------
 
We are generally in compliance with the corporate governance requirements of the NASDAQ except as described below and in the risk factor entitled “Our Common Shares may be delisted from the NASDAQ or the TSX, which could affect their market price and liquidity. If our Common Shares were to be delisted, investors may have difficulty in disposing their Common Shares” in Item 3.D above. We are not in compliance with the NASDAQ requirement that a quorum for a meeting of the holders of our Common Shares be no less than 33 1/3% of such outstanding shares. Our bylaws provide that a quorum for purposes of any meeting of our shareholders consists of at least 10% of the outstanding voting shares. We benefit from an exemption from the NASDAQ from this quorum requirement because the quorum provided for in our bylaws complies with the requirements of the CBCA, our governing corporate statute, and with the rules of the TSX, the home country exchange on which our voting shares are traded. In accordance with applicable current NASDAQ requirements, we have in the past, and upon request, provided to the NASDAQ letters from outside counsel certifying that these practices are not prohibited by our home country law.
