      1.5 Levinson’s direct or indirect beneficial ownership of or control or direction over securities of Gold Canyon changed each month during the period from February 1997 to July 1998, such that he was required to file insider reports within 10 days after the end of the month in which the change took place, in accordance with the provisions of section 87(4) of the Act;

      1.6 during the period from February 1997 to July 1998, approximately 412 trades, representing the acquisition of 1,725,866 common shares and options issued by Gold Canyon, and the disposition of 955,978 common shares and options issued by Gold Canyon, were not reported as required;

      1.7 Levinson’s direct or indirect beneficial ownership of or control or direction over securities of Bradner changed during April 1997 and June 1997, and each month during the period from September 1997 to July 1998, such that he was required to file insider reports within 10 days after the end of the month in which the change took place, in accordance with the provisions of section 87(4) of the Act;
