INFORMATION CIRCULAR

FORUM NATIONAL INVESTMENTS INC.

 

Solicitation and General Information

This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the management of Forum National Investments Inc. (the "Company") of proxies for use at the annual general & special meeting of the members ("members" or "shareholders") of the Company to be held on June 26 2008, at 2:00 p.m.. and any adjournments thereof (the "Meeting").

The solicitation for proxies will be conducted by mail and may be supplemented by telephone or other personal contact to be made without special compensation by officers and employees of the Company. The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Company.

The principal executive office is 180A - 13040 No. 2 Road, Richmond, British Columbia V7E 2G1. The telephone number is (604) 275-2170. The Canadian registered and records office of the Company is located at the office of the Company's Canadian agent Kornfeld Mackoff Silber, 1100 One Bentall Center, 505 Burrard Street, Box 11, Vancouver, B.C., V7X 1M5.

The date of this Information Circular is June 2, 2008.

Who Can Vote, Record Date and Voting Shares

The Board of Directors of the Company has fixed the close of business on May 23, 2008 as the record date for the purposes of determining the holders of common shares entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting (the "Record Date"). In accordance with the provisions of the Ontario Business Companies Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter B. 16, as amended, the Company has requested its transfer agent to prepare a list of the holders of common shares on the Record Date. Each holder of common shares named in the list will be entitled to vote the common shares shown opposite his or her name on the list at the Meeting, except to the extent that:

    1. the Shareholder has transferred any of his or her common shares after the date on which the list was prepared; and

    2. the transferee of those common shares produces properly endorsed share certificates or otherwise establishes that he or she owns such common shares and demands not later than ten (10) days before the Meeting that his or her name be included in the list before the Meeting, in which case the transferee is entitled to vote his or her common shares at the Meeting.

As of the Record Date, the Company had 28,433,983 common shares ("Common Shares") issued and outstanding. The holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote for each Common Share held. In order to be effective, each ordinary resolution to be submitted to Shareholders at the Meeting must be approved by the affirmative vote of at least 50% plus one of the votes cast thereon and each special resolution must be approved by the affirmative vote of at least 67% of the votes cast thereon.

How You Can Vote

If you are a registered shareholder (i.e. your Common Shares are held in your name) you may vote your Common Shares either by attending the Meeting in person or, if you do not plan to attend the Meeting, by completing the proxy and following the delivery instructions contained in the form of proxy and this management proxy Information Circular.

2


Appointment of Proxyholder

The persons named in the accompanying form of proxy are the President and Director, or failing him, a representative of Forum National Investments Ltd. You may also appoint some other person (who need not be a shareholder of the Company) to represent you at the Meeting either by inserting such other person's name in the blank space provided in the form of proxy or by completing another suitable form of proxy.

Proxy Voting Options

Shareholders may wish to vote by proxy whether or not they are able to attend the Meeting in person. Registered shareholders may vote by proxy as follows: by mail or fax, by telephone.

Submitting a proxy by mail or fax are the only methods by which a shareholder may appoint a person as proxy other than a director or officer of the Company named on the form of proxy.

Mail

All registered shareholders should deliver their proxies by hand or mail to Computershare Trust Company of Canada, by mail or by hand delivery at their offices at, Computershare Investor Services Proxy Dept., 100 University Avenue 9th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1, not later than 10:00 a.m. on May 21, 2008.

Telephone

The option to submit a proxy by telephone is offered only in Canada and in the United States. Registered shareholders electing to submit a proxy by telephone require a touch-tone telephone. The telephone number to call is: 1-866-732-8683. Shareholders must follow the instructions, use the form of proxy received from the Company and provide the ID and Code numbers located beside their name on the proxy form on the lower left-hand side. If the ID and Code numbers are not on the proxy form, they will be on the back of the flyer enclosed with this Information Circular. Instructions are then conveyed by use of the touch-tone selections over the telephone.

Advice to Beneficial Holders of Common Shares

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many shareholders of the Company, as a substantial number of shareholders do not hold shares in their own name. Shareholders who do not hold their shares in their own name (the "Beneficial Shareholders") should note that only proxies deposited by shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those Common Shares will not be registered in the shareholder's name on the records of the Company. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the names of the shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In the United States, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of Cede & Co. as nominee for the Depositary Trust Company (which acts as depositary for many U.S. brokerage firms and custodian banks), and in Canada, under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for the Canadian Depository for Securities Limited, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). Beneficial Shareholders should ensure that instructions respecting the voting of their Common Shares are communicated to the appropriate person.

Applicable regulatory policies require intermediaries/brokers to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders' meetings. Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its

3


own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting. The form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker (or the agent of the broker) is similar to the form of proxy provided to registered shareholders by the Company. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the registered shareholder (the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") in the United States and in Canada. Broadridge typically applies a special sticker to proxy forms, mails those forms to the Beneficial Shareholders and requests the Beneficial Shareholders to return the proxy forms to Broadridge. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder receiving a Broadridge proxy cannot use that proxy to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting - the proxy must be returned to Broadridge, as the case may be, well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted.

Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of his broker (or agent of the broker), a Beneficial Shareholder may attend at the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered shareholder and vote the Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend at the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered shareholder should enter their own names in the blank space on the instrument of proxy provided to them and return the same to their broker (or the broker's agent), in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker (or agent), well in advance of the Meeting.

Alternatively, a Beneficial Shareholder may request, in writing, that his or her broker send to the Beneficial Shareholder a legal proxy which would enable the Beneficial Shareholder to attend at the Meeting and vote his or her Common Shares.

Revocation of Proxies

You may revoke your proxy by:

  • delivering, at any time up to and including the last business day that precedes the day of the Meeting or, if the Meeting is adjourned, that precedes any reconvening thereof, a written notice of revocation duly executed to Computershare Investor Services Proxy Dept., 100 University Avenue 9th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Y1 or to the head offices of the Company at 180A - 13040 No. 2 Road, Richmond, British Columbia; or
  • advising the Chairman of the Meeting that you are voting in person at the Meeting; or
  • any other manner provided by law.

Your revocation of a proxy will not affect a matter on which a vote has already been taken.

Exercise of Discretion

The nominees named in the accompanying form of proxy will vote or withhold from voting the shares represented by the proxy in accordance with your instructions. The proxy grants the nominees the discretion to vote on:

  • each matter or group of matters identified in the proxy where you do not specify how you want to vote, except for the election of directors and the appointment of auditors;
  • any amendment to or variation of any matter identified in the proxy; and
  • any other matter that properly comes before the Meeting.

If on a particular matter to be voted on, you do not specify in your proxy the manner in which you want to vote, your shares will be voted for the approval of such matter.

4


As of the date of this Information Circular, management of the Company knows of no amendment, variation or other matter that may come before the Meeting, but if any amendment, variation or other matter properly comes before the Meeting, each nominee intends to vote thereon, in accordance with the nominee's best judgment.

Solicitation of Proxies

The solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, but proxies may be solicited personally or by telephone by directors, officers and regular employees of the Company. All costs of this solicitation will be borne by the Company.

SHAREHOLDERS

Record Date

The Board of Directors of the Company has fixed the close of business on May 23, 2008 as the record date for the purposes of determining the holders of common shares entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting (the "Record Date"). In accordance with the provisions of the Ontario Business Corporations Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter B. 16, as amended, the Company has requested its transfer agent to prepare a list of the holders of common shares on the Record Date. Each holder of common shares named in the list will be entitled to vote the common shares shown opposite his or her name on the list at the Meeting, except to the extent that:

    1. the shareholder has transferred any of his or her common shares after the date on which the list was prepared; and

    2. the transferee of those common shares produces properly endorsed share certificates or otherwise establishes that he or she owns such common shares and demands not later than ten (10) days before the Meeting that his or her name be included in the list before the Meeting, in which case the transferee is entitled to vote his or her common shares at the Meeting.

As of the Record Date, the Company had 28,433,983 Common Shares (the "Common Shares") issued and outstanding.

(2)

Percentages are based on 28,433,983 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of June 2, 2008 unless otherwise noted.

(5)

Shares beneficially owned or held by Mr Teeny are registered to Teeny Acquisitions, LLC.
 

(6)

On June 27, 2007 the record date, the Company issued 13,933,983 Series "A" Preferred Non-Dilutive shares to all the existing registered and beneficial common shareholders on a one (1) for one (1) PRO RATA basis. The Series "A' Preferred Non-Dilutive shares are convertible, as a Series into common shares of the Company provided a majority of the Series "A" Preferred shareholders vote in favor of converting the entire Series. The Series will convert into a number of common shares that will represent 50% of the number of fully diluted common shares after conversion.
 

(7)

On June 27, 2007 the record date, the Company issued 13,933,983 Series "B" Preferred Shares to all the existing registered and beneficial common shareholders on a one (1) for one (1) PRO RATA basis.

(8)

Ms. Dawydiuk is married to Mr. Clozza, an officer and director of the Company. She votes and controls her shares in the Company independently of her husband.

The directors and senior officers of the company have no knowledge of any other person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, voting securities of the Company carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all securities of the Company. However, this information is not reasonably within the power of the directors and senior officers to ascertain or procure for a number of reasons, including the fact that many persons who appear as registered shareholders are in fact not the beneficial holders of the shares and many persons who become beneficial owners of the Company's shares do not register such shares in their name.

The purpose of the Stock Option Plan is to encourage ownership of the Common Shares of the Company by the persons who are primarily responsible for the management and profitable growth of the Company's business, as well as provide additional incentive for superior performance by such persons and attract and retain valued personnel. The plan provides that eligible persons thereunder include any director, senior officer, consultant or employee of the Company. A consultant is defined as an individual that is engaged by the Company, under a written contract, to provide services on an ongoing basis and spends a significant amount of time on the Company's business and affairs. The definition of consultant also includes an individual whose services are engaged through a personal holding corporation. The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company, which has

8


the authority to determine, among other things, subject to the terms of the plan and the requirements of regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, the terms, limitations, restrictions and conditions respecting the grant of options thereunder.

The Stock Option Plan provides that the maximum number of Common Shares that may be reserved for all purposes under the plan shall be 2,850,000 shares. The plan provides that the maximum number of Common Shares that may be reserved for issuance to insiders under the plan and any other share compensation arrangement shall not exceed 10% of the Common Shares outstanding at the time of grant (on a non-diluted basis) and the maximum number of Common Shares that may be issued to insiders under the plan or any other share compensation arrangement within a one-year period shall not exceed 10% of the Common Shares outstanding at the time of grant (on a non-diluted) basis.

The Board of Directors of the Company has the authority under the Stock Option Plan to establish the option price at the time each option is granted. This price shall not be less than the market price of the Common Shares at the time of grant. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan are exercisable over a period not exceeding five (5) years from the date of grant, subject to earlier termination if the optionee ceases to be an eligible person by reason of termination of employment, retirement, disability or death.

MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

No management contracts exist. Currently there are no management functions of the Company which are to any substantial degree performed by persons other than the directors or senior officers of the Company.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

None of the directors or senior officers of the Company, none of the persons who have been directors or senior officers of the Company since the commencement of the Company's last completed financial year and no associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting other than the election of directors and as disclosed under the heading "Particulars of Other Matters to be Acted Upon".

INTEREST OF INSIDERS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

    There are no arrangements or understandings between any of our directors or executive officers, and with our major shareholders, customers, suppliers or others pursuant to which any director or officer was or is to be selected as a director or officer. In addition, there are no agreements or understandings for the officers or directors to resign at the request of another person and the above-named officers and directors are not acting on behalf of nor acting at the direction of any other person.

    "BE IT RESOLVED AS AN ORDINARY RESOLUTION:

    1. The number of directors be determined at seven;

    2. That the following persons be elected as directors until the next annual general meeting: Messrs. Dan Clozza, Martin Tutschek, Jeffery Teeny , Scott McManus, Chris Yerensen, Kazunari Kohno, Mike Barrett; and

    3. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized at their discretion to appoint up to four additional directors in the upcoming year."

    MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY DOES NOT CONTEMPLATE THAT ANY OF THE NOMINEES WILL BE UNABLE TO SERVE AS A DIRECTOR. IN THE EVENT THAT PRIOR TO THE MEETING ANY VACANCIES OCCUR IN THE SLATE OF NOMINEES HEREIN LISTED, IT IS INTENDED THAT DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY SHALL BE EXERCISED BY MANAGEMENT TO VOTE THE PROXY FOR THE ELECTION OF ANOTHER PERSON OR PERSONS AS DIRECTORS.

    It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed Proxy, in the absence of instructions to the contrary, to vote the Proxy in favor of the ordinary resolution determining the number of directors at seven and electing the named directors.

    4. Increase of Quorum to 33.33%

    Shareholders will be asked to consider, and if deemed advisable, to pass with or without variation, a special resolution to approve an amendment to Article No. 10.3 of the Corporation to increase the quorum requirement for shareholders meetings to 2 shareholders in person or by proxy representing not less than 33.33% of the outstanding shares of the Corporation.

    At the time of the Company's application for a listing on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) the Board approved amendments to Article No. 10.3 of the Company to increase the quorum requirements for shareholders meetings from "two persons present and being, or represented by proxy, members holding not less than one twentieth of the issued shares entitled to be voted at the meeting" to make it "not less than two (2) shareholders present in person or represented by proxy or duly authorized representative, representing not less than 33.33% of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of the Company". The change was required by AMEX and the Company's shareholders must approve such amendment at the Meeting or it will lapse. Therefore, in order for the Company to continue to satisfy the AMEX requirements it is seeking shareholder approval by special resolution to the above described amendment to Article No. 10.3.

    Approval of the Amendment will require the affirmative votes of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast in respect thereof by Shareholders present in person or by proxy at the Meeting and will require the approval of regulatory authorities. Notwithstanding whether the special resolution is passed by Shareholders, the directors of the Company may revoke it at any time prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Amendment giving effect to the Amendment. Unless instructed otherwise, the management designees in the accompanying Instrument of Proxy intend to vote FOR the special resolution approving the Amendment.

    Accordingly, shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought fit, to pass a special resolution in substantially the following form, subject to such changes as may be required by counsel and regulatory authorities:

    14


    "BE IT RESOLVED AS A SPECIAL RESOLUTION:

    1. The articles of the Company be amended so that Article No. 10.3 will be amended to increase the quorum requirement to "not less than two (2) shareholders present in person or represented by proxy or duly authorized representative, representing not less than 33.33% of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of the Corporation."

    2. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized at their discretion to revoke this resolution before it is acted upon without further approval of the shareholders.

    3. Any officer or director is authorized to execute such documents, and to take such actions as he considers necessary or desirable in connection with the foregoing."

    It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed Proxy, in the absence of instructions to the contrary, to vote the Proxy in favor of the special resolution approving the amendment increasing the quorum requirement.

    5. Approval of Option Plan

    The Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan, dated July 5, 2007 ("2007 Plan"), and had reserved 2,850,000 common shares for issuance pursuant to the exercise of options granted under the stock option plan being less than 20% of the number of common shares issued and outstanding at the time the 2007 Plan was adopted.

    The following table sets forth grants of options made under the Company's 2007 Plan to named executives during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

    2. The number of shares subject to each option will be determined by the Board of Directors provided that the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to options granted to:

    12


    1. Insiders during any 12-month period may not exceed 10% of the issued shares of the Company unless the 2007 Plan is approved by a majority of the votes cast by "disinterested shareholders" (as defined below) at the Meeting;
    2. any one individual during any 12-month period may not exceed 5% of the issued shares of the Company (unless the Company is a Tier 1 Issuer and disinterested shareholder approval has been obtained);
    3. any one Consultant during any 12-month period may not exceed 2% of the issued shares of the Company;
    4. any one Person employed to provide investor relations activities during any 12-month period may not exceed 2% of the issued shares of the Company;

    in each case calculated as at the date of grant of the option, including all other shares under option to such Person at that time.

    1. The exercise price of an option may not be set at less than 80% of the market price at the time of issuance.
    2. Options may be granted with an exercise period determined solely by the Board of Directors.
    3. The options are non-assignable and non-transferable.
    4. The options can only be exercised by the optionee as long as the optionee remains an eligible optionee pursuant to the 2007 Plan or within a period of not more than 90 days after ceasing to be an eligible optionee or, if the optionee dies, within one year from the date of the optionee's death.
    5. On the occurrence of a takeover bid, issuer bid or going private transaction, the Board of Directors will have the right to accelerate the date on which any option becomes exercisable.
    6. Any amendments to the stock option plan must be approved, if necessary, by the shareholders of the Company prior to becoming effective.

    At this time, shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought fit, to pass an ordinary resolution in substantially the following form, subject to such changes as may be required by counsel and regulatory authorities:

    "BE IT RESOLVED AS AN ORDINARY RESOLUTION THAT:

    1. the stock option plan of the Company dated July 5, 2007 (the "2007 Plan") and as described in this Information Circular, be and is hereby approved;
    2. the exercise of any stock options granted to directors, officers and/or employees of the Company and/or its subsidiaries during the previous year, under the 2007 Plan, is hereby ratified;
    3. granting and exercise of stock options at the discretion of directors, officers and/or employees of the Company and/or its subsidiaries during the forthcoming year at such prices and upon such terms as may be acceptable to the Board of Directors is hereby ratified;
    4. the directors of the Company are hereby authorized to renegotiate or cancel any existing stock options; and
    5. the Board of Directors is hereby authorized to cause all such documents, instruments and other writings to
      be executed and cause all such acts and things to be done as the directors may consider necessary or desirable to implement the 2007 Plan as referred to above."

    In accordance with taxation policies and other regulatory requirements, the 2007 Plan must be approved by the majority of votes cast at the meeting on the resolution.

    16


    It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed Proxy, in the absence of instructions to the contrary, to vote the Proxy in favor of the ordinary resolution approving the Plan.

    6. Authorization and Approval of Private Placements

    The Company completed two private placements in 2007 resulting in the issuance of an aggregate total of 15,500,000 shares of common stock, with two accredited investors, raising an aggregate total of $9,000,000 (the "2007 Summer Offerings"). The funds raised in the 2007 Summer Offerings provided the Company with working capital to enter into the Life Settlement market.

    The Company anticipates it will enter into a number of private placements of the Company's securities in the upcoming year in order to provide it with further working capital and fund the Company's business activities and operations.

    Although not required by law, the Board of Directors is seeking shareholder ratification of the share issuances conducted by the Company pursuant to the 2007 Summer Offerings and 2008 Spring Offering and the approval of the issuance of shares in any future private placements (and the shares issued on conversion of any warrant or convertible security) that will result in, or is part of a transaction that will result in the creation of a new control person. In addition, shareholder ratification and approval is requested for any private placement of securities previously made or which may be made in the future to a related party as defined by the American Stock Exchange or other exchange or quote system the share of Company may trade. Approval by the shareholders of any such future private placements may assist the Company in making any listing application with the American Stock Exchange or other exchange or quote system as the Company will have been in compliance with standard exchange policies related to such private placements.

    The Company's issued and outstanding share capital is currently 28,433,983 Common Shares. The number of Common Shares the Company may issue under one or more private placements in the 12 month period commencing on June 26, 2008 may exceed 28,433,983 shares in the aggregate, or over 100% of the Company 's issued and outstanding shares as of June 26, 2008.

    The disinterested shareholders of the Company are being asked to pass a resolution ratifying and approving the Company having entered into the past and possibly entering into in the future one or more private placement agreement transactions during the ensuing 12-month period. Upon such terms as may be approved by the directors of the Company, such private placement(s) will provide for the issuance of securities (shares or units consisting of one common share and one warrant), at then market prices (less allowable discounts). Management considers that it is in the best interests of the Company to obtain ratification of all past private placements and a blanket authorization from its disinterested shareholders for additional private placements to be entered into during the next 12 months. Blanket approval will obviate the necessity of obtaining shareholder approval for each specific private placement, thereby reducing the time required to obtain regulatory approval should the Company become listed on an exchange or quote system other than the OTC Bulletin Board and decreasing the Company's administrative costs relating to such private placements.

    The private placements will only be negotiated if management believes the subscription price is reasonable, in the circumstances, and if the funds are required by the Company to continue or expand its activities. Each private placement transaction authorized hereunder will be made with placees who may or may not be at arm's length to the Company.

    If ratification and approval of the Private Placement and other past offerings is not obtained, the Company may not be in compliance with the American Stock Exchange or other exchange or quote system policies related to such private placements and therefore may have more difficulty listing on such exchange or quote system.

    To be effective, the resolution must be approved by not less than 50% of the votes cast by those disinterested shareholders of the Company who vote in person or by proxy at the Meeting. The discretionary authority granted by the enclosed proxy will be used by management to approve any amendments to the resolution acceptable to it.

    17


    Management is requesting disinterested shareholder approval for the following ordinary resolution:

    "BE IT RESOLVED THAT

    1.

    AUDIT COMMITTEE AND RELATIONSHIP WITH AUDITORS

    Audit Committee

    The Company's audit committee is comprised of three directors. In 2007, Messrs. Martin Tutschek, Jeffery Teeny and Scott McManus formed the audit committee. Mr. Dan Clozza has recently replaced Mr. Martin Tutschek on the audit committee and has been appointed to the 2008 audit committee chairman.

    The functions of the audit committee include selecting, appointing, retaining, compensating and overseeing our independent auditors, deciding upon and approving in advance the scope of audit and non-audit assignments and related fees, reviewing accounting principles we use in financial reporting, and reviewing the adequacy of our internal control procedures, including the internal audit function.

    Messrs. Teeny and McManus during fiscal year 2007 and currently:

    • are considered an "independent" director as defined in Section 121A of the American Stock Exchange Company Guide;
    • meets the criteria for independence as required by applicable rules adopted by the SEC;
    • has not participated in the preparation of our financial statements or the financial statements of any of our current subsidiaries at any time during the past three years; and
    • is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements.

    Our Board of Directors has determined that the audit committee has at least one member, Mr. McManus who qualifies as an Audit Committee Financial Expert, as defined by relevant SEC rules. As previously stated, Mr. McManus is an independent director.

    Audit Committee Charter

    The audit committee operates under a written charter, a current copy of which is available on our website, www.foruminvestments.com. The audit committee reviews and reassesses the adequacy of the audit committee charter on an annual basis.

    The audit committee has established procedures for the receipt, retention, and treatment of complaints received regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, as well as for the pre-approval of services provided by our independent auditors.

    18


    As set forth in the audit committee charter, the audit committee is also responsible for the review and approval of any related party transaction in advance of the company entering into any such transaction.

    The audit committee met four times during fiscal year 2007 and has met twice since fiscal year end with respect to the audit of our fiscal year 2007 financial statements and related matters.

    In fulfillment of the audit committee's responsibilities for fiscal year 2007, Mr. Tutschek, the audit committee Chairman, reviewed our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 (as did the other members of the committee and Board of Directors at the time of review), and related matters before we released them.

    CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURE

    Board of Directors

    The Board of Directors has the ultimate responsibility for the administration of the affairs of the Company. Our Articles, as currently in effect, provides for a Board of Directors of not less than three directors and not more than ten directors. It is expected that all current directors will continue to serve the Company in the future. The directors are elected at a general meeting of shareholders by a majority of vote of the shareholders present or represented by proxy, subject to quorum requirements of at least one third of all issued and outstanding shares having voting rights.

    At September 30, 2007 and from December 31, 2006, Messrs. Scott McManus and Jeff Teeny would be considered independent directors of the Company in accordance with Section 121A of the Amex Company Guide.

    Director Independence and American Stock Exchange Listing Standards

    The Company has made an application to list its Common Shares on the American Stock Exchange. If accepted for listing, to which there is no guarantee, the Company will be required to comply with listing standards applicable to companies that have equity securities listed on the American Stock Exchange.

    Under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange, the Company is a "controlled company" as such term is defined by the American Stock Exchange. The Company is a controlled company because over 50% of the voting power of the Company is held by the directors and officers of the Company as a group. Accordingly, it is exempt from certain listing standards that require listed companies that are not controlled companies to (i) have a board composed of a majority of directors that qualify as independent under the rules of the American Stock Exchange, (ii) have certain compensation approved by a compensation committee comprised solely of directors, or by a majority of directors, that qualify as independent under the rules of the American Stock Exchange, and (iii) have director nominations be made by a committee comprised solely of directors, or by a majority of directors, that qualify as independent under the rules of the American Stock Exchange.

    As a controlled company, the Company is required to have three directors who qualify as independent to serve on the audit committee. The Company's Board of Directors has determined that two of the three members of the Company's audit committee, Messrs. Jeffrey Teeny and Scott McManus, do not have any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and qualify as independent under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange, as well as Section 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As a result, two of the four directors, or 50% of the directors, have been determined to qualify as independent under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

    The Company, if its common shares are accepted for listing on the American Stock Exchange, will be required to certify compliance with specified listing standards to the American Stock Exchange on an annual basis.

    Code of Ethics

    As required by Section 807 of the American Stock Exchange Company Guide, the Company has adopted a code of ethics for its Chief Executive Officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller and other persons performing similar functions. The company's code of ethics complies with Item 406 of Regulation S-K of the SEC. The code of ethics addresses the following:

    • Honest and ethical conflict, including handling of corporate opportunities and conflicts of interest;
    • Full, fair, accurate, timely and quality public disclosure filed with the SEC and otherwise publicly made by the Company;
    • Compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
    • Prompt internal reporting of violations of the code of ethics; and
    • Accountability for adherence to the code of ethics.

    The Company does not plan to grant any waiver, including an implicit waiver, from a provision of the code of business conduct and ethics to any person, and there have been no waivers to the code of ethics to the date of this information circular.

    The Company intends to satisfy the disclosure requirement under Item 10 of Form 8-K on Form 6-K regarding any amendment to its Code of Ethics for certain Senior Executives and Financial Officers, and will disclose all other amendments to any of the foregoing code by posting such information to such internet website.

    The Company's Code of Ethics is posted to the Company's web site, www.foruminvestments.com.

    Nomination of Directors

    The Company does not have a nominating committee and, accordingly, does not have a nominating committee charter. Under listing standards of the American Stock Exchange, the Company is exempt from the requirement

    20


    to have a nominating committee because it is a controlled company as such term is defined by the American Stock Exchange. Instead, the entire Board of Directors participates in the consideration of director nominees. Similarly, since the Company is a controlled company, the Company also is exempt from the listing standard that requires director nominations to be made by a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors or by a majority of independent directors.

    The Board of Directors does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by shareholders. Because the Board of Directors as a group have over 50% of the voting power in the election of directors elected by holders of Common Shares, nominations of directors for election by the holders of Common Shares are generally based on the recommendation of the Board of Directors as a group. With respect to candidates for director to be elected by the Common Shares, the Board of Directors may from time to time informally consider candidates by shareholders that hold a significant number of Common Shares. The Board of Directors has no formal procedures to be followed by shareholders in submitting recommendations of candidates for director.

    The Company's Board of Directors does not have any specific, minimum qualifications that the board believes must be met by a nominee for a position on its Board of Directors, or any specific qualities or skills that the board believes are necessary for one or more of the Company's directors to possess. The Board of Directors has consistently sought to nominate to the Board of Directors eminently qualified individuals whom the board believes would provide substantial benefit and guidance to the Company. The Board of Directors believes that substantial judgment, diligence and care are required to identify and select qualified persons as directors and does not believe that it would be appropriate to place limitations on its own discretion.

    In general, the Company's Board of Directors will nominate existing directors for re-election unless the Board of Directors has a concern about the director's ability to perform his or her duties. In the event of a vacancy on the board, the Company may use various sources to identify potential candidates, including an executive search firm. In addition, the Chairman may consider recommendations by shareholders that hold a significant number of Common Shares. Potential candidates are initially screened by the Chairman and by other persons as the Chairman designates. Following this process, if appropriate, information about the candidate is presented to and discussed by the full Board of Directors.

    Four of the nominees approved by Forum National Investments Ltd board for election at the 2008 annual meeting are executive officers and/or directors who are standing for re-election.

    The Company has not paid a fee in 2007 to any third party or parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying or evaluating potential nominees for election of directors at the 2008 annual meeting. However, from time to time in the future, the Company may pay a fee to an executive search firm to identify potential candidates for election as directors.

    Compensation

    The Board of Directors of the Company as a whole reviews and approves all matters relating to compensation of the directors and executive officers of the Company. With regard to the CEO, the Board reviews and approves corporate goals and objectives relevant to the CEO's compensation, evaluates the CEO's performance in light of those goals and objectives and sets the CEO's compensation level based on this evaluation.

    The basis for the view of the Board of Directors that it is appropriate for the Company not to have a formal independent compensation committee for all executive compensation is that over 50% of the voting power of the Company is held by the directors and officers of the Company as a group. As a controlled corporation, the Company is not required to have an independent compensation committee under listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

    Other Board Committees

    The Board of Directors has no other committees other than the audit committee.

    21


    Shareholder Communication

    Management is available for shareholders to respond to questions and concerns on a prompt basis. Management believes that its communications with shareholders and others, interested in the Company, are responsive and effective.

    Assessments
