Pamela Strand, a director of the Applicant since October 26, 2009, was from 2001 until January 24, 2008 a director and officer of Garson Gold Corp. (prior to July 2007 known as Piper Capital Inc. (Piper), then a Capital Pool Corporation (CPC) pursuant to the policies of the Exchange). By letter dated August 13, 2004 to Piper, the Exchange advised that it had concluded that Piper and its directors and officers had contravened the CPC policies of the Exchange and imposed the requirement upon Ms. Strand, as the Chief Operating Officer and a director of Piper, that she complete a corporate governance course acceptable to the Exchange (which course was completed by Ms. Strand in October, 2004) and that Ms. Strand obtain Exchange acceptance prior to any proposed involvement with any other CPC listed on the Exchange in any capacity

AND UPON the Commission being satisfied that granting this Order would not be prejudicial to the public interest;

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED pursuant to clause 1(11)(b) of the Act that the Applicant is a reporting issuer for the purposes of Ontario securities law.
