The Arrangement remains subject to the final approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia and satisfaction of other closing conditions. The hearing in respect of the final order to approve the Arrangement is currently anticipated to take place on Jan. 8, 2013, at 9:45 a.m. (Vancouver Time). If the final order is obtained on Jan. 8, 2013, and all further approvals and conditions are obtained and satisfied, it is expected that the Arrangement will be completed on or about Jan. 10, 2013.
