Introduction

In accordance with the "Protocol for Commission Oversight of Toronto Stock Exchange Rule Proposals" between the Ontario Securities Commission (the "OSC") and Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX"), TSX has adopted, and the OSC has approved, amendments (the "Amendments") to the TSX Company Manual (the "Manual"). The Amendments are housekeeping in nature and therefore are considered non-public interest amendments.

Reasons for the Amendments

The Amendments have been made to Appendix H Form 3 -- Change in Officers/Directors/Trustees.

The changes in Appendix H of the Manual to Form 3 -- Change in Officers/Directors/Trustees represent: (i) a change to clarify the review that TSX may conduct in respect of the officer/director/trustee on receipt of the Form 3; and (ii) a change to ensure that the issuer is authorized to submit the Form 3 for the officer/director/trustee and accepts the representation and warranty regarding personal information, in compliance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada). The review conducted by TSX pursuant to a Form 3 is done in accordance with Section 716 of the Manual. The changes to Form 3 are being made in compliance with protection of personal information considerations and do not represent a substantive change to the Manual or Form 3.

Text of Amendments

The Amendments are attached as Appendix A.

Effective Date

The Amendments become effective on September 4, 2009.
