Certification By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the securities referred to above were acquired in the ordinary course of business and were not acquired for the purpose of and do not have the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer of such securities and were not acquired in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purposes or effect. The CC&L Financial Services Group ("Partnership") and Connor, Clark & Lunn Investment Management Ltd. ("Company") are of the view that they and the investment companies and other accounts that they manage are not acting as a "group" for the purposes of section 13(d) under the Act and that they and such investment companies and accounts are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the "beneficial ownership" of securities "beneficially owned" under Rule 13D-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act. Therefore, they are of the view that the shares held by the Partnership and the Company and such investment companies and accounts should not be aggregated for purposes of section 13(d). However, the Partnership is making this filing on a voluntary basis as if all of the shares are beneficially owned by the Partnership and the Company on a joint basis. After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
