This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements that statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 30, 2006, as amended by Amendment No. 6 to Schedule TO, filed by the reporting persons.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
     The purpose of the acquisition is to enable 1212707, Limited and the Trust to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of the Issuer. Effective June 18, 2006, 1212707, Limited and Issuer entered into a pre-acquisition agreement pursuant to which 1212707 and Limited agreed to acquire the Issuer and 1212707 agreed to make a tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of the Issuer. By press release issued on August 19, 2006, the Trust announced that 1212707 and Limited had acquired approximately 9.8 million common shares of Issuer pursuant to the tender offer and had provided for a subsequent offering period that expired at midnight (Pacific daylight time) on Wednesday, September 6, 2006 and pursuant to which 1212707 and Limited acquired a total 11,814,264.736 common shares of Issuer tendered during the tender offer.
     As previously disclosed, 1212707 and Limited intend to avail themselves of such other corporate actions or proceedings as may be legally available, including an amalgamation, to acquire the remaining outstanding common shares of Issuer. On September 19, 2006, the Issuer, 1212707, Limited and 1265817 Alberta Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of 1212707 (“Newco”), entered into an amalgamation agreement (The “Amalgamation Agreement”). Pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement, a meeting of the Issuer’s shareholders has been called to consider and vote upon the amalgamation whereby the Issuer and Newco will amalgamate (the “Amalgamation”) and continue as one corporation (“Amalco”). To facilitate the Amalgamation, 1212707 transferred all of its common shares in the Issuer to Newco on September 18, 2006. If the Amalgamation is approved and the conditions set out in the Amalgamation Agreement are satisfied, Amalco will be a wholly owned subsidiary of 1212707. Upon completion of the Amalgamation, shareholders of the Issuer (other than dissenting shareholders and Newco) will receive one Amalco Redeemable Preferred Share for each common share of the Issuer held. Amalco will then redeem any and all such Amalco Redeemable Preferred Shares for U.S. $13.10 in cash per share. Holders of Amalco Redeemable Preferred Shares can elect, prior to the time of redemption, to have 1212707 purchase any and all such Amalco Redeemable Preferred Shares at a purchase price of U.S. $13.10 in cash per share prior to such redemption.
     Subject to applicable laws, 1212707 and Limited intend to cause Issuer to take steps to toward the elimination of its public reporting requirements under applicable Canadian and US securities laws and to delist the common shares from the Toronto Stock Exchange and The NASDAQ Capital Market.
     Other than as described in this Statement, none of 1212707, Limited or the Trust have any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) and (b) 1212707, through Newco, beneficially owns 11,814,264.736 common shares of Issuer. This represents approximately 78% of the outstanding common shares of Issuer as of such date. 1212707 has the sole power to vote or dispose of these common shares. None of 1212707, Limited or the Trust beneficially own any other common shares of the Issuer.
(c) Except as described in Item 4 above, none of 1212707, Limited or the Trust has engaged in any transaction during the past 60 days in any common shares of the Issuer. None of the persons whose names are listed on Appendix A beneficially owns any common shares of Issuer.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

5 of 7


 

     Except as described in Item 4 above, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between any of 1212707, Limited, the Trust or any person whose names are listed on Appendix A and any other person with respect to the securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities of the Issuer, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
