(1) EBITDA and recurring revenue are non-IFRS measures. EBITDA is earnings  
    before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and is commonly   
    used by industry to normalize non-operating factors that are included in
    net income and as a proxy for the cash generating potential of a        
    business. Recurring revenue is determined by the Company and compared to
    both operations and total cash expenditures as significant indicators of
    performance and sustainability. See section 9 of the Management         
    Discussion and Analysis for further detail on both of these metrics.
