In light of the ongoing dispute with its business partner on the i-vu project,
it is unlikely that this project will become economic. Accordingly, the Company
has discontinued the operations related to the i-vu project, with all inventory
and deferred charges related to the discontinued operations being written off as
impaired during 2008. The results of operations and financial position of the
i-vu project have been segregated and presented separately as discontinued
operations in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Results for 2007
also segregate other operations discontinued by the Company during that period.
As a result, no revenues, cost of goods sold, gross profit or selling and
marketing expenses are presented in the Company's income statement for 2008 or
2007.


Loss from discontinued operations was $13,711 thousand in 2008 versus $2,233
thousand in 2007. While the assets related to the i-vu project were written off
in 2008, criteria had not been met as at December 31, 2008 to extinguish a
liability of $10,851 thousand related to this project, management considers it
unlikely that the Company will have to fulfill this other liability; and the
other liability may be taken into income in a future period.


"The Company is currently focused on redeploying its remaining assets in a
manner that creates long term value and gets the Company to the point where
sufficient cash flow is generated from operations" said Bob Dameron, President
and CEO.
