4.06 Covenants Concerning Confidentiality

(a)   The Buyer acknowledges that in order to facilitate the completion of the
      purchase of the Assets, it will be afforded access to and be entrusted
      with information (in this subsection the "Confidential Information")
      concerning the Seller and the Business that is not a matter of public
      record and has not been disclosed to any person who does not owe a duty of
      nondisclosure to the Seller pursuant to a written or oral agreement, at
      common law or under the terms of applicable legislation. The Buyer also
      acknowledges that the Confidential Information is proprietary and
      confidential and disclosure thereof to competitors of the Seller and/or
      the Business or to the general public would be detrimental to the best
      interests of the Seller and could cause a great deal of damage to the
      Business. The Buyer therefore agrees that it will not, except for the
      benefit of and with the written consent of the Seller, its successors or
      assigns, prior to the completion of its purchase of the Assets or at any
      time, if the purchase of the Assets pursuant to this Agreement is not
      completed for any reason whatsoever,:

            (i) disclose or divulge any Confidential Information to any person,
            unless that person is also bound by a duty of confidentiality with
            respect thereto; or

<PAGE>
                                       14


            (ii) use, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information for
            any purpose other than to complete its due diligence in connection
            with the purchase of the Assets, or disclose or use for any purpose
            other than that set out above, knowledge of the private affairs of
            the Seller or the Business,
      unless the Buyer can establish beyond any reasonable doubt that the
      Confidential Information:
            (iii) was previously known to the Buyer, as evidenced by written
            records, which the Buyer can prove predate this Agreement; or
            (iv) hereafter, and prior to disclosure or use as set out above,
            becomes generally known to the public through no act or omission of
            the Buyer.

(b)   The Seller and the Covenantor each acknowledge that in order to facilitate
      the completion of the purchase of the Assets, they may be afforded access
      to and be entrusted with information (in this section the "Confidential
      Information") concerning the Buyer that is not a matter of public record
      and has not been disclosed to any person who does not owe a duty of
      non-disclosure to the Buyer pursuant to a written or oral agreement, at
      common law or under the terms of applicable legislation. The Seller and
      the Covenantor also acknowledge that the Confidential Information is
      proprietary and confidential and disclosure thereof to competitors of the
      Buyer or to the general public would be detrimental to the best interests
      of the Buyer and could cause a great deal of damage to the business of the
      Buyer. The Seller and the Covenantor therefore each agree that it will
      not, except for the benefit of and with the written consent of the Buyer,
      its successors or assigns, at any time:

            (i) disclose or divulge any Confidential Information to any person,
            unless that person is also bound by a duty of confidentiality; or
            (ii) use, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information for
            any purpose other than to complete their due diligence in connection
            with the sale of the Assets and the performance of this Agreement,
            or disclose or use for any purpose other than that set out above,
            knowledge of the private affairs of the Buyer,
      unless the Seller or the Covenantor, as the case may be, can establish
      beyond any reasonable doubt that the Confidential Information:
            (iii) was previously known to the Seller or the Covenantor, as the
            case may be, as evidenced by written records, which the Seller or
            the Covenantor, as the case may be, can prove predate this
            Agreement; or
            (iv) hereafter, and prior to disclosure or use as set out above,
            becomes generally known to the public through no act or omission of
            the Seller or the Covenantor, as the case may be.

(c)   The Buyer, the Seller and the Covenantor each agree that no public or
      internal announcement of the transactions provided for in this Agreement
      will be made without the prior approval of the Buyer and the Seller,
      provided that each of the Buyer and the Seller agrees not to unreasonably
      withhold or delay its approval of or to any announcements or filings
      required to be made by the other by law, or to obtain or transfer any
      licences or consents required by the Buyer or the Seller

                                       15


      in order to complete the transactions provided for in this Agreement.

      Date, Buyer shall take possession of the tangible Assets and move them
