TSX Venture Exchange Bulletin - Electronic Versions Of The Form 2A (PIF) And Form 2C1 Available Online

In 2008, TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") continued to bring additional value to issuers through the introduction of enhanced data tools and new services. For 2009, the latest development in a series of steps taken to ensure accuracy, completeness and speed of issuer reporting obligations to the Exchange is the ability of issuers to complete electronic versions of Personal Information Forms ("PIFs") and Statutory Declarations online.

Effective immediately PIFs (Form 2A) and Statutory Declarations (Form 2C1) may be completed online. Once completed, the PIF or Form 2C1 must be printed, executed and, together with all required attachments, forwarded to the Exchange in accordance with the General Instructions on Page 1 of the PIF.

Although PIFs and Form 2C1s cannot be submitted electronically to the Exchange, the online versions of the forms are designed to guide applicants through the completion process in a step-by-step fashion to ensure accuracy and completeness. It is the Exchange's view that this system will greatly reduce error rates on forms submitted and will result in faster turnaround times for issuers, with less need for the Exchange to contact applicants or their counsel regarding incomplete or inaccurate forms.

Electronic completion of both forms is voluntary until June 30, 2009. Beginning July 2, 2009, issuers must submit only the version generated from the online PIF software located on our website. Any PIF or Form 2C1 submitted in a format differing from that produced by the online software may no longer be accepted for filing by the Exchange.

We believe that our listed issuers and stakeholders will greatly benefit from the convenience this service will bring to the PIF and Form 2C1 process.

Electronic versions of the Form 2A (PIF) and Form 2C1 may be found on the Exchange's website at:

• Form 2A: http://www.tsx.com/en/listings/venture_issuer_resources/form2apif.html
• Form 2C1: http://www.tsx.com/en/listings/venture_issuer_resources/form2c1.html
