2. The Articles of the Issuer were
amended by Certificate of Amendment issued July 5, 2000 to remove
the private corporation provisions and to change the name from 4204042
Manitoba Ltd. to Fairview Capital Corp.
3. The Issuer
was incorporated as a keystone company pursuant to MSC Rule 44-501
and the rules and regulations
of the Winnipeg Stock Exchange (the "WSE"). The WSE ceased
operations as a stock exchange at the end of the business day on
November 24, 2000, at which time the Canadian Venture Exchange ("CDNX")
commenced operations as a stock exchange in Manitoba.
4. The Issuer
was listed on the former WSE (and now on CDNX) as a Keystone Company
under WSE Policy 1.4.
The Issuer has entered into an agreement to acquire all of the outstanding
securities of Bald Eagle Golf Company, LLC ("Bald Eagle")
as its "Major Transaction".
5. Pursuant
to the Major Transaction, the Issuer is intending to file a prospectus
offering with the Alberta
and Manitoba Securities Commissions relating to a new issue of up
to $1,500,000 to be comprised of the sale of up to 3,750,000 units
of the Issuer at a price of $0.40 per unit (the "Offering").
6. Bald Eagle
is a limited liability company ("LLC") which was incorporated
on November 11, 1996 under the laws of Colorado by Articles of
Organization as SP
Golf Ball Company LLC, involved in the development and marketing
of special patented golf balls. On August 6, 1999 it changed its
name to Bald Eagle Golf Company, LLC by Articles of Amendment.
7. Pursuant to the Major Transaction,
the Issuer has entered into an Agreement dated November 23, 2000
with Bald Eagle and its shareholders pursuant to which the Issuer
shall purchase all of the outstanding shares, options and warrants
in Bald Eagle.
8. MSC Rule
3.2(5) and 3.2(7)(a) prohibits a company incorporated in the U.S.
from being a target with respect
to a keystone companys Major Transaction.
9. Pursuant
to CDNX Policy 6.3 "Transitional
Provisions for WSE issuers and prospective WSE Issuers" pertaining
to the operation of CDNX as a stock exchange in Manitoba, the acquisition
of Bald Eagle by the Issuer as a Major Transaction continues to be
governed by the policies of the former WSE and of the MSC.
10. Although the policies governing
the Major Transaction are those of the WSE and the MSC, listing review
and approval lies with the CDNX.
11. The CDNX
equivalent of the WSE Keystone Company program is the Capital Pool
Company ("CPC")
program. CDNX Policy 2.4, which governs the CPC program, does not
prohibit the acquisition of a U.S. incorporated company as the target
company pursuant to the completion of a "Qualifying Transaction" (the
CPC program equivalent to a Major Transaction).
12. As a result of the merger between
the CDNX and the WSE, the Issuer must meet CDNX listing requirements
within 18 months of being listed on the CDNX.
13. The outstanding
Common Shares of the Issuer are listed for trading on the CDNX
under the trading symbol "FA.K".
