         12.   Risk  Management
         The Company has in place an enterprise risk management framework that defines its risk policy, risk appetite and risk
         limits,  and  identifies,  assesses,  monitors,  and  manages  key  business  risks  to  safeguard  shareholders’  investments
         and the Company’s assets. Business risks are promptly identified, effectively mitigated and continuously monitored.
         As part of its robust corporate governance strategy, the Company has in place a very strong Internal Audit function
         which is risk focused. The Business Risk profile is presented through the Internal Audit function to the statutory Audit
         Committee  for  consideration  and  to  make  appropriate  recommendations  to  the  Board  for  approval.  The  Internal
         Audit  function  reports  directly  to  the  statutory  Audit  Committee  on  a  quarterly  basis  in  order  to  ensure  a  high
         level  of  independence.
