Principal Documents

The following documents, filed as Exhibits 99.1 through 99.2 hereto, are hereby incorporated by reference into this Form 40-F:


			(a)			Annual Information Form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022;


			(b)			Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Results (“MD&A”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022; and

ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURE

Certifications and Disclosure Regarding Controls and Procedures


(a)			Certifications. See Exhibits 99.3, 99.4, 99.5 and 99.6 to this Annual Report on Form 40-F.


(b)			Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the registrant’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the registrant’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) was carried out by the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of the end of that fiscal year, the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the registrant’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that while the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe that the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance that they are effective, they do not expect that the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.


(c)			Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. (1) Management of the registrant is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. (2) Management assessed the effectiveness of the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and as further described under the heading "Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting", incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.2 to this Annual Report on Form 40-F. (3) Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting was effective. Also, management determined that there were no material weaknesses in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. (4) Deloitte LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the registrant’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, has issued its opinion on the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (the “Attestation Report”).


(d)			Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. The Attestation Report is included in Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto, which is incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 40-F.


(e)			Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, there were no changes in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
