(1) The Registrant previously paid US$166,792.08 in registration fees (of which the Registrant transferred funds in the amount of US$66,796.43 and used offsets for the balance of the fees in the amount of US$99,994.95) with respect to the Registration Statement on Form F-10 (File No. 333-250996) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 27, 2020, as amended on December 4, 2020 (the “2020 Registration Statement”), all of which remained unutilized and is therefore available for future registration fees pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act. The Registrant previously paid US$227,795.40 in registration fees (of which the Registrant transferred funds in the amount of US$71,774.88 and used offsets for the balance of the fees in the amount of US$156,020.52) with respect to the Registration Statement on Form F-10 (File No. 333-228593) filed with the SEC on November 29, 2018, as amended on December 7, 2018 (collectively, the “2018 Registration Statement”), of which US$99,994.95 remained unutilized and was used to offset the total registration fees required for the 2020 Registration Statement. The Registrant previously paid US$431,032.10 in registration fees with respect to the Registration Statement on Form F-10 (File No. 333-214787) filed with the SEC on November 23, 2016, as amended on November 30, 2016 (collectively, the “2016 Registration Statement”), of which US$156,020.52 remained unutilized and was used to offset the total registration fees required for the 2018 Registration Statement. As the total registration fee required for this Registration Statement is US$164,660.84, taking into consideration the available offset of US$166,792.08 from the 2020 Registration Statement, the Registrant has accordingly transmitted US$0 otherwise due under this Registration Statement.

 

(2) An indeterminate amount of securities to be offered at indeterminate offering prices not to exceed C$2,000,000,000 was registered pursuant to this registration statement.

 

(3) The Registrant has terminated or completed any offerings that included the unsold securities under the 2020 Registration Statement.

 

(4) The contemporaneous fee payment made with the 2020 Registration Statement was US$66,796.43, the contemporaneous fee payment made with the 2018 Registration Statement was US$71,774.88, and the contemporaneous fee payment made with the 2016 Registration Statement was US$431,032.10. As the contemporaneous fee payment made with the 2020 Registration Statement is less than the offset being claimed, the remainder of the claimed offset for this registration statement can be traced to the 2018 Registration Statement and the 2016 Registration Statement.
