United States Tax Consequences. The transactions involving the issuance, transfer, and settlement of the Demand Note set forth in Steps 4, 5, and 6 above are being undertaken to achieve a more efficient tax structure from a Canadian perspective, are transitory, and are intended to be disregarded for United States federal income tax purposes. Similarly, the CFOL Stock Dividend described in Step 3 is being undertaken to achieve a more efficient tax structure from a Canadian perspective and is intended to be disregarded for United States federal income tax purposes. The amalgamations described in Steps 2 and 7, in substance, merely convert the CFOL common shares into two classes of stock. As a result, Steps 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7 are intended to qualify as reorganizations pursuant to Sections 368(a)(1)(E) and (F) of the Code (the “Recapitalization”).
