The British Columbia Securities Commission, considering that to do so would not be prejudicial to the public interest, orders effective October 3, 2011 that BC Instrument 45-529 Bonus or Finder’s Fee is varied by changing paragraph 5 to replace “a report in the required form” with “a report of the distribution in Form 45-106F6”, so that the instrument reads as attached.
