On June 16, 2010 we signed a Settlement Agreement and Release with Ms. Chantal Iorio, our Vice President, Finance (the “Iorio Agreement”).  Ms. Iorio’s employment with us will end on August 15, 2010, although she has agreed to render consulting services to us after that date.  Pursuant to the Iorio Agreement, in exchange for a release of our obligations under the employment agreement dated December 12, 2007 and any and all claims Ms. Iorio may have related to her employment, we have agreed to pay her the sum of CDN$75,000 (the “Severance Payment”).  The Severance Payment will be made over a period of 6 months in equal installments of CDN$12,500.  We have also agreed to pay Ms. Iorio’s accrued vacation pay by August 15, 2010 and to continue the payment of Ms. Iorio’s statutory and discretionary medical and dental benefits.  Statutory benefits will be continued until the Severance Payment is paid in full.  Discretionary benefits will be paid until the earlier of the date that we cease providing such benefits to all of our employees or the date that the Severance Payment is paid in full.
