(iii) The three parcels are located offshore Newfoundland and Labrador and are described in Schedule I. An Exploration Licence may be issued for each parcel;

(v) A minimum bid of $1,000,000 will be required for these parcels in the Central Ridge/Flemish Pass;
(vi) For each parcel, the Work Expenditure Bid must be accompanied by a bank draft or certified cheque in the amount of $10,000 (“Bid Deposit”) made payable to the Receiver General. Furthermore, the successful bidder will be required to provide, within 15 days of notification of being the successful bidder, a promissory note in the amount of 25% of the Work Expenditure Bid (“Security Deposit”).

(vii) The successful bidder will receive a refund, without interest, of the Bid Deposit when the Security Deposit is posted within 15 days. Failure to post the Security Deposit within 15 days will result in forfeiture of the Bid Deposit and disqualification of the bid.

(viii) For each parcel, an Exploration Licence will be issued for a term of nine years consisting of two consecutive periods of five years (Period I) and four years (Period II). Period I may be extended to six years by posting an additional deposit of $1,000,000 as security for drilling a well; Period II will comprise the balance of the nine-year term;
(ix) For each parcel, the licence requirement will be one well to be commenced within Period I and diligently pursued thereafter;

Rentals will be refunded annually, to a maximum of 100% of the rentals paid in that year, on the basis of a dollar refund for each dollar of Allowable Expenditures for that year.
Carry-forward provisions to reduce rentals otherwise payable in ensuing rental years will apply.
Rentals will apply to lands subject to a declaration of significant discovery during the term of the Exploration Licence at the rates and levels of refundability specified above;
(xi) An Allowable Expenditure schedule will have application throughout Period I of the Exploration Licence. The rates of Allowable Expenditures will be reviewed, and may be amended, at the expiration of Period I;
(xii) Rentals (Significant Discovery Licence)
Each Significant Discovery Licence shall be subject to the following rental regime after the expiration of the term of the Exploration Licence of origin:

(c) There shall be no carry forward of excess allowable expenditures from Exploration Licences.
(d) Rentals are to be submitted by bank draft or certified cheque payable to the Receiver General.
(e) For greater certainty, rentals shall be calculated on the basis of the total hectarage of lands held as part of the Significant Discovery Licence, as of the anniversary date.

CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL
DETERMINATION
Communications, photographic, mapping, printing and publication services
Notice is hereby given that, after completing its inquiry, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) made a determination (File No. PR-2008-001) on July 2, 2008, with respect to a complaint filed by Antian Professional Services Inc. (Antian), of Ottawa, Ontario, under subsection 30.11(1) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, R.S.C. 1985 (4th Supp.), c. 47, concerning a procurement (Solicitation No. EP357-070051/C) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services. The solicitation was for the provision of exhibit management and related services.
Antian alleged that the evaluation team improperly evaluated its proposal.
Having examined the evidence presented by the parties and considered the provisions of the Agreement on Internal Trade, the Tribunal determined that the complaint was not valid.
Further information may be obtained from the Secretary, Canadian International Trade Tribunal, Standard Life Centre, 15th Floor, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, 613-993-3595 (telephone), 613-990-2439 (fax), secretary@citt-tcce.gc.ca (email).

CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL
DISMISSAL
Communications, detection and fibre optics
Notice is hereby given that the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) issued an order on July 3, 2008, with respect to a complaint (File No. PR-2008-012) filed by Cisco Systems Canada Co. (Cisco), of Toronto, Ontario, under subsection 30.11(1) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, R.S.C. 1985 (4th Supp.), c. 47, concerning a procurement (Solicitation No. M2989-084976/A) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services (PWGSC) on behalf of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The solicitation was for the provision of a telephone system.
Cisco alleged that PWGSC improperly issued a competitive solicitation for the requirement instead of using existing standing offers and that PWGSC improperly biased the technical specifications in favour of Nortel brand equipment on a no-substitute basis and thereby failed to ensure equal access to the procurement.
Having found that the complaint had no valid basis, the Tribunal, pursuant to paragraph 10(a) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Procurement Inquiry Regulations, dismissed the complaint.
Further information may be obtained from the Secretary, Canadian International Trade Tribunal, Standard Life Centre, 15th Floor, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, 613-993-3595 (telephone), 613-990-2439 (fax), secretary@citt-tcce.gc.ca (email).
