  inherent limitations noted above, the Company’s Disclosure Controls are effective in ensuring that material information relating to the Company

  *Internal Controls over Financial Reportin*g 
  Internal controls over financial reporting (“ICFR”) are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s 
  financial reporting and its preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Management’s documentation and 
  assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s ICFR continues as of the date of this MD&A with the focus on processes and controls in areas 
  identified as being “key risks”. 
  
  As of the financial year ended December 31, 2013, the certifying Officers have evaluated the design and effectiveness of such ICFR, or caused 
  them to be designed and evaluated under their supervision. The certifying Officers have concluded that the design and effectiveness of ICFR 
  were operating effectively as at December 31, 2013, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the 
  preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. The certifying Officers have evaluated whether there were 
  any changes to the Company’s ICFR during the year ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially 
  affect its ICFR. No changes were identified through their evaluation.
