    <remarks>The issuer became a foreign private issuer on December 9, 2004 and, accordingly, the reporting person has exited the Section
 16 reporting system as of that date. There were no transactions that took place subsequent to that date except the reporting
 person voluntarily reports that on January 24, 2006, the reporting person exchanged 320,000 Series B preferred shares for
 320,000 common shares.</remarks>
