the meeting shall be entitled to a second or casting vote.

     10.16 SHOW OF HANDS. - Subject to the Act, any question at a meeting of
shareholders shall be decided by a show of hands, unless a ballot thereon is
required or demanded as hereinafter provided, upon a show of hands every person
who is present and entitled to vote shall have one vote. Whenever a vote by show
of hands shall have been taken upon a question, unless a ballot thereon is so
required or demanded, a declaration by the chairman of the meeting that the vote
upon the question has been carried or carried by a particular majority or not
carried and an entry to that effect in the minutes of the meeting shall be prima
facie evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the
votes recorded in favour of or against any resolution or other proceeding in
respect of the said question, and the result of the vote so taken shall be the
decision of the shareholders upon the said question.

     10.17 BALLOTS. - On any question proposed for consideration at a meeting of
shareholders, and whether or not a show of hands has been taken thereon, the
chairman may require a ballot or any person who is present and entitled to vote

demand for a ballot may be withdrawn at any time prior to the taking of the
ballot. If a ballot is taken each person present shall be entitled, in respect
of the shares which he is entitled to vote at the meeting upon the question, to
that number of votes provided by the Act or the articles, and the result of the
ballot so taken shall be the decision of the shareholders upon the said
question.

     10.18 ADJOURNMENT. - The chairman at a meeting of shareholders may, with
the consent of the meeting and subject to such conditions as the meeting may
decide, adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place. If a
meeting of shareholders is adjourned for less than 30 days, it shall not be
necessary to give notice of the adjourned meeting, other than by announcement at
the earliest meeting that is adjourned. Subject to the Act, if a meeting of
shareholders is adjourned by one or more adjournments for an aggregate of 30
days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as for an original
meeting.

     10.19 RESOLUTION IN WRITING. - A resolution in writing signed by all the
shareholders entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of shareholders is
as valid as if it had been passed at a meeting of the shareholders unless a
written statement with respect to the subject matter of the resolution is
submitted by a director or the auditor in accordance with the Act.

     10.20 ONLY ONE SHAREHOLDER. - Where the Corporation has only one

     11.01 METHOD OF GIVING NOTICES. - Any notice (which term includes any
communication or document) to be given (which term includes sent, delivered or
served) pursuant to the Act, the regulations thereunder, the articles, the
by-laws or otherwise to a shareholder, director, officer, auditor or member of a
committee of the board shall be sufficiently given if delivered personally to
the person to whom it is to be given or if delivered to his recorded address or
if mailed to him at his recorded address by prepaid ordinary or air mail or if
sent to him at his recorded address by any means of prepaid transmitted or
recorded communication. A notice so delivered shall be deemed to have been given
when it is delivered personally or to the recorded address as aforsaid; a notice
so mailed shall be deemed to have been given when deposited in a post office or
public letter box and a notice so sent by any means of transmitted or recorded
communication shall be deemed to have been given when dispatched or delivered to
the appropriate communication company or agency or its representative for
dispatch. The secretary may change or cause to be changed the recorded address
of any shareholder, director, officer auditor or member of a committee of the
board in accordance with any information believed by him to be reliable.

     11.03 COMPUTATION OF TIME. - In computing the date when notice must be
given under any provision requiring a specified number of days' notice of any
meeting or other event, the date of giving notice shall be excluded and the date
of the meeting or other event shall be included.

     11.04 UNDELIVERED NOTICES. - If any notice given to a shareholder pursuant
to section 11.01 is returned on three consecutive occasions because he cannot be
found, the Corporation shall not be required to give any further notices to such
shareholder until he informs the Corporation in writing of his new address.

     11.05 OMISSIONS AND ERRORS. - The accidental omission to give any notice to
any shareholder, director, officer, auditor or member of a committee of the
board or the non-receipt of any notice by any such person or any error in any
notice not affecting the substance thereof shall not invalidate any action taken
at any meeting held pursuant to such notice or otherwise founded thereon.

     11.06 PERSONS ENTITLED BY DEATH OR OPERATION OF LAW. - Every person who, by
operation of law, transfer, death of a shareholder or any other means
whatsoever, shall become entitled to any share, shall be bound by every notice
in respect of such share which shall have been duly given to the shareholder
from whom he derives his title to such share prior to his name and address being
entered on the securities register (whether such notice was given before or
after the happening of the event upon which he became so entitled) and prior to
his furnishing to the Corporation the proof of authority or evidence of his
entitlement prescribed by the Act.

member of a committee of the board may at any time waive any notice, or waive or
abridge the time for any notice, required to be given to him under the act, the
regulations thereunder, the articles, the by-laws or otherwise and such waiver
or abridgment, whether given before or after the meeting or other event of which
notice is required to be given, shall cure any default in the giving or in the
time of such notice, as the case may be. Any such waiver or abridgement shall be
in writing except a waiver of notice of a meeting of shareholders or of the
board or a committee of the board which may be given in any manner.
