All documents filed with the Commission by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the date of this registration statement and prior to the termination of this offering shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this registration statement and to be a part of this registration statement from the date of the filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for the purposes of this registration statement to the extent that a statement contained in this registration statement or in any subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus modifies or supersedes such statement. Such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this registration statement.

Investors are entitled to rely upon information in this registration statement or incorporated by reference at the time it is used by the Company to offer and sell securities, even though that information may be superseded or modified by information subsequently incorporated by reference into this registration statement.

Item 4 - Description of Securities

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares. Holders of the Company’s common shares are each entitled to cast one vote for each share held of record on all matters presented to the shareholders. Cumulative voting is not allowed; hence, the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding common shares can elect all directors.

Subject to the rights of holders of preferred shares, if any, holders of the Company’s common shares are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the Company’s board of directors out of funds legally available and, in the event of liquidation, to share pro rata in any distribution of our assets after payment of liabilities. The Company’s board of directors is not obligated to declare a dividend. It is not anticipated that dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.

Holders of the Company common shares do not have preemptive rights to subscribe to additional shares if issued. There is no conversion, redemption, sinking fund or similar provisions regarding the common shares. All outstanding common shares are fully paid and non-assessable.

Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of preferred shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Subject to the Alberta provisions of the Business Corporations Act, the Company’s directors may, by resolution, establish the designations, powers, rights, preferences, qualifications, restrictions and limitations of any series of preferred shares. As of the date of this Prospectus, no preferred shares were outstanding.

Transfer Agent

Computershare, Inc., of Denver, Colorado, is the transfer agent for the Company’s common stock.

Item 5 - Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

Not Applicable.

Item 6 - Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Alberta Business Corporation Act and our Bylaws. We have agreed to indemnify each of our directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 7 – Exemption from Registration Claimed

None.

Item 8 - Exhibits

Item 9 - Undertakings

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section l0(a)(3) of the Securities Act of l933;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change in such information in the registration statement;

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(l)(i) and (a)(l)(ii) will not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section l3 or Section l5(d) of the Securities Act of l934.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of l933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of l933, each filing of the registrant’s Annual Report pursuant to Section l3(a) or Section l5(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of l934 (and, where applicable, each filing of any employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section l5(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of l934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
